Talk:Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US

message: Markoff's article, "Illuminating Blacked-Out Words", which was originally published in The New York Times  appears to have been completely removed from their archives.  Could someone help me find a link to the article on the NYT website, paid or not, or explain what happened to it?  I already have a copy of it from other sites (many are available). Thanks.

thread_title:  Illuminating Blacked-Out Words 

message: Why did Condoleezza Rice tell the 9/11 Commission the PDB "did not, in fact, warn of any coming attacks inside the United States", when in fact it did, and that's the general consensus of most analysts on the subject. Did she mean to say or imply that it did not warn of any specific attacks?  I'm guessing that she did mean to say that, but her testimony is very confusing on this point. Viriditas (talk) 05:17, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The current article says, "Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and General Richard Myers have stated that contrary to repeated claims, the CIA's PDB did not warn the President of a specific new threat but "contained historical information based on old reporting".  The problem is that this is exactly the opposite of what our best sources say on the subject.  The best sources say, "In two separate instances under oath, Condoleezza Rice said that the CIA's PDB did not warn the President of a specific new threat but "contained historical information based on old reporting" before 1998. However, Rice's claims are contrary to what the original authors of the PDB said in the actual memo, as well as what 9/11 Commission members who reviewed the memo observed.  Rather than "historical", the PDB mentioned specific warnings and threats to targets in the United States, hence the title, "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US".

Talk:Archibald Sayce

message: I feel that this article does a degree of injustice to Sayce.  He was extremely forward thinking for his time and to an extent dragged Middle East studies out of the 19th century, rescuing the discipline from the continuing domination of conservative German scholars.

Talk:Great Republic of Rough and Ready

message: The Great Republic of Rough and Ready was founded on 7 April 1850, [...] The United States did not retaliate against this "secession" because its declaration of independence was sent to Washington, DC via Pony Express, on the only ride that lost the mail along the way.
Err, the dates can't be right, surely, since the Pony Express only operated in 1860-61? -- Arwel 12:26, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)

message: I've placed this in :Category:Secessionist towns and cities which contains towns and cities which have declared themselves to be states but without any recognition of this change. This category is a subcategory of :Category:Micronations and :Category:Secession, which I feel aids navigation and organisation greatly. It also seperates out these places which had real territory but no legitimacy from those in the parent category which mostly had neither. Thoughts? Useful change, or categorisation too far? I'm not entirely sure. (See also Wikipedia:Micronations#Background for reported "types of micronations" and what I've done with categories so far). --kingboyk 12:23, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Just ran across a Youtube hosted video that's making the rounds on facebook.  Apparently in 1963 John Cale, having been one of 10 pianists to perform the 18-hour piece in Wales (already noted in the article under "first public performance"), appeared on the American game show, I've Got a Secret, with the only member of the audience to have sat through the entire 18 hours.  Is that notable?  In most articles that would be pop culture / trivia, but inasmuch as Satie is an early composer of what would come to be pop music, and the incident of the performance if not the television aftermath is already covered in teh article perhaps an important cultural manifestation, if we can source this perhaps it would make a useful addition to the article.

message: Hi team, 
This morning, I read a page in our encyclopedia about the astrological signs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrological_sign#References) and when I reached the end of the page in the  references section, I saw a thing that was not relevant and not good in our pages (in my point of view). In the fourth point, we had a link on the keyword " Signs and Constellations" and it's broken. So please replace this for a better experience also I have a suggestion for a good and informative page (https://www.astroyogi.com/zodiac-signs)

thread_title:  Redirect? 

message: *The Swedish Rite, like the Knights Templar in the York Rite demand brethren be Christian, and not just that they believe in a supreme being.
This contains a slight misstatement: the York Rite does NOT demand that its members be Christian... Yes, Knights Templars swear (in the name of Christ) to uphold the Christian Faith.  Yes, the degree is overtly Christian in its content. And Yes, this usually does mean that members of other faiths don't join, but nothing officially limits membership to just Christians or says members of other faiths can't join... I personally know of one Jewish Sir Knight who employed quite ingenious and tortured logic in justifying his decision to join ... but as long as he felt he could swear his oaths in good faith (pardon the pun), he was allowed to join.
That said, I do understand the analogy and it isn't completely wrong... we just need to work on it a bit. Blueboar 22:58, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Slight misstatement re: York Right 

message: I have added these two sections (and made a few other minor modifications) with the primary purpose of explaining how the Swedish rite differs from the far more widespread Craft masonry.  It is, however, important to note, that I am myself a Danish mason, and that the sections (and the whole article, really) would benefit from being verified by somebody from the other countries using the Swedish rite.
