I'm still an amateur when it comes to light set-ups. What exactly is the significance of listing the f-stop next to the lights?
Bruce, by recording what the stops are set at for the different lights it helps you keep track of your lighting ratios so that you can recreate similar shots in the future instead of guessing.

Just got some Alienbees. Didn't get my whole order, one box missing. UPS guy said he's bringing it tomorrow. I bought the new remote trigger and receiver. Works like a charm. This shot was literally minutes after they arrived. I know I had my hairlight with too much power as you tell by the end of her nose. Couldn't use a fill light as one of my speedrings must be in the missing box, so I couldn't use the softbox on the third light.

This is absolutely the coolest thing. I'm somewhat the designated photographer at my church. With all the scenery changes for different events, this is a great way to keep track of what worked.
