Talk:United States Office of the Independent Counsel

message: I removed him again from the Whitewater investigation. He was not appointed under the Independent Counsel Act as it was not in force at the time of his appointment. He was appointed by Janet Reno. When the Act was re-authorized the Special Division panel appointed Starr in his place. Ellsworth 15:08, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Conspiracy Theory stuff removed 

message: The anon IP who merged the articles was an idiot and clearly not a lawyer.  Independent counsel has several other meanings at the state level that in many contexts are more important than the federal definition, e.g., Cumis counsel.  As a practical matter, a lot more people will encounter Cumis counsel in their lifetimes (since they are so often requested in response to an insurance company's reservation of rights) than they will ever encounter someone from the U.S. Office of Indpeendent Counsel! --Coolcaesar (talk) 16:33, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what old article you're referring to.  The pre-redirect "Independent Counsel" article has always been about the federal position, and the "Independent counsel" page has only ever been a redirect.  If you want to write the Independent counsel article you propose, just edit that redirect to be a real article and proceed.  Wasted Time R (talk) 22:07, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Independent counsel]] needs to be split back out 

message: The article states: "It should also not be confused with the "independent counsel" who is appointed by the Attorney General pursuant to United States Department of Justice regulations. 28 Code of Federal Regulations 600.1."  Okay.  I just finished inserting Nicholas J. Bua into the article under the assumption that his appointment by Attorney General William Barr in 1991 (i.e. during the Inslaw Affair) qualified him for insertion.  Apparently, it does not, according to the aforementioned sentence.  Unless something is done with respect to clarifying these distinctions between Independent Counsel, Special Counsel, and United States Office of the Independent Counsel a lot of redirects will need to be changed.  Perhaps this distinction can be handled easily by some sort of categorization within the main body of this article since almost all knowledge surrounding the definition of who, what, where, when, and why of special, independent investigating and prosecuting will eventually redirect to here. —Dixie Brown (talk) 14:21, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Progressive rock

message: I was a teenager in the 70s and lived and breathed this style of music.  But the term 'progressive rock' was not one that I ever heard until decades later.  The term 'progressive pop' is one I that I first heard in 2023.  At the time, this style of music was pretty much universally referred to as 'progressive music'.  It was never thought of as a sub-genre of rock and did not exclude music that clearly was not rock.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.254.242.128 (talk) 11:58, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

message: As a fan of progressive rock in general and of Rush in particular, the person who wrote that Rush had top ten albums in the 70's is incorrect.

thread_title:  Was he Jewish? 

message: Perhaps I am the only one but I find the following sentence fragment confusing: (...) 'with the imminent collapse of the Russian front, (...)'. Because it appears to be written from the German perspective the implicit meaning is that the German army was on the verge of collapse on the Russian front. Obviously in 1917 it was quite the reverse, it was Russia that was on the run and Germany had the upper hand. However as long as Russia didnt capitulate the German forces could not be freed from the Eastern front, hence the importance of Zimmerman's intervention. I would argue the sentence needs to be changed to state more clearly something in the vein of:
'In March 1917, with Russian forces near collapse, Zimmermann took steps to promote Peace in the East with the Russians, (...)

message: I've removed the following text, re the falls' European discovery (plus some other badly-worded info), which I have been unable to find corroborated anywhere:
:It was found by Johnny Bloom in 1870 on an expedition looking at flora and fauna....Scientists have always found this strange because there is no opening in the earth's crust located there for magma to come out. Britain claimed the falls in the late 1870s but the Aborigines have claimed it back since then. Before Johnny came along it was originally named Jujumkalla by the Aborigines...
It was named after Johnny's Grandfather, Wallaman Bloom, apparently because of his great height.
If subsequent research establishes this claim, it can be restored.--cjllw | TALK 04:05, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I know we're not supposed to use Wikipedia as a forum but I've looked through about 40 wiki-pages' worth of Australian waterfalls now, but can't find any that look like the one in the film Initiation (1987) where there was some pretty impressive stunt work done on a gently sloping (but wet) cascade area at the top. I've posted this here because of a photo I saw at this site which was taken from behind the rocks at top of the falls and down the gorge they drop into - matching a shot in the film. If I've got the right place then it might be worth adding an 'In Popular Culture' section to the article.
