Episode Plot
Ash, Dawn and Brock finally meet Azlef, Uxie and Mesprit. Suddenly, the space begins to be filled with shadows, as they consume the Lake Trio. After this, Ash, Dawn and Brock wake up, as they have dreamt the same dream. J, during the next day, is about to launch the bome Team Galactic have given her to get one of the trio. Gary contacts Prof. Rowan and reports J has appeared. Gary sends Electivire to get them, but Saturn's Toxicroak uses Dark Pulse to prevent them. Umbreon uses Psychic, but gets hit by Toxicroak's X-Scizzor. J drops the bomb and causes a bright blue light, making Azelf to be captured. Ash feels a sharp pain and knows Azelf is in trouble.
The spirit is captured; so Saturn explaines to Gary that the bomb is made from the meteorite they got and opens a portal to another dimension to get the Pokémon. Ash, Brock and Dawn contact Rowan to tell what happened. Rowan receives reports that the other lakes are shining a bright light. Seeing J passing by, Gary orders Electivire to use Thunder, but Electivire gets hit by Toxicroak. The member send many Golbat, while J's Salamance uses Hyper Beam on the light, causing Azelf to appear. The Golbat use Supersonic, but Azelf evades and hits them with a beam. J fires her own beam and while she has been hit by Azelf's own beam, Azelf is captured.
Cyrus recalls that when one of the trio is hurt, the others will come to help it. So, Uxie and Mesprit vanish, as they teleported. Ash, Dawn and Brock go to help the trio and go out and encounter Cynthia, who orders them to get in the car. While Gary wants to help, Toxicroak stands in the way. A light shines, as Uxie and Mesprit appear. They go to attack after seeing Azelf captured, but evade attacks from Mars' Purugly and Jupiter's Skunktank. They dodge the Supersonic and use Future Sight, but in doing so, Mesprit gets captured. Uxie fires a beam, affecting J and almost breaking her glasses, but also gets captured.
Brock and Dawn feel the pain as Ash did. Cynthia tells them they are to meet Looker, who is investigating at Mt. Coronet. Saturn, Mars and Jupiter thank J for the work and give her the reward and she goes away. J goes in the ship and departs, but the Future Sight of Mesprit and Uxie takes effect, as the air ship gets damaged. In a moment, the air ship falls in the lake and explodes. Team Galactic depart, leaving Gary angry at all this. Team Rocket fly in the balloon at Mt. Coronet. They spot Looker and come to him, lendning him help. Looker tells them Team Galactic might have spotted them and gets them behind a rock. He wants them punished to restore his reputation, so Team Rocket are more determined to help him.
Rowan reports to Ash, Brock and Dawn Gary is fine and tells Cynthia and them to be careful. Cynthia tells them that Team Galactic are available to summon Dialga and Palkia and use their power. Charon puts the gems of the Red Chain on the heads of the Lake Trio, causing them to pulse by a red light. Ash, Brock and Dawn feel the pain of the Trio and suddenly, they disappear; as they have been summoned to the place where they are. Though surprised they are here, Saturn sends Toxicroak, as Brock's Croagunk has called out by his own will. Mars and Jupiter send Skunktank and Purugly. As they are to battle, Cyrus stops them.
Looker tells Team Rocket they need to be cautious, but need to find a way to infiltrate. Team Rocket have dressed themselves aas Team Galactic, making Looker pleased, as he has a similar idea. Cyrus scolds his commanders, as they should not fight, as the emotions can possess one's heart and causing the person to fight, which will not make any progress for humanity. Cyrus tells the heroes they are in Team Galactic HQ and they are to prepare themselves for a new world. The heroes know he lied and stole the orb and demand the trio to be released, but Cyrus disagrees, but notices they might be important as they are linked to the trio. So, they all surround them to keep them.
Pikachu's Thunderbolt and Piplup's BubbleBeam cause the pods in which the trio is to be shattered. Croagunk fights Toxicroak, so the battle against Team Galactic begins.
- There is no Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture following this episode (due to it being shown immediately before The Battle Finale of Legend!).
- This is the first time that Mesprit, Azelf, and Uxie appear in their physical forms. They previously appeared as projected souls in Following a Maiden's Voyage!, Pruning a Passel of Pals!, and Uncrushing Defeat! respectively.
- The title card is read by Ash, Dawn and Brock.
- In this episode, J used a Galactic Bomb on Lake Valor, which is what Saturn did in the games.
- The background music Darkrai: From Within the Shadows from the tenth movie is used in this episode.
- Despite sharing the same name in both Japanese and English, Uxie has two different voice actors for both languages.
- Music from Celebi: Voice of the Forest, The Rise of Darkrai, and Giratina and the Sky Warrior is played during this episode.
- Team Rocket doesn't blast off or recite their motto in this episode.
- Gary's Umbreon looks much larger than it actually is in one scene.
- Both Mesprit and Uxie use Teleport during this episode, a move neither can legally learn.

RE: Sakura
I know it is. But, you must reference everything you add. Reference the episode or chapter it is stated in.--Yomiko-chan (talk) 02:21, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
Okay. Well, find out the exact episode, and then add the proper reference. What you added is correct, but you need to follow the Wiki's rules, including referencing information added.--Yomiko-chan (talk) 03:05, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
No problem.--Yomiko-chan (talk) 03:59, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
Ino Yamanaka Medical Ninjutsu
What I mean is that I can understand you like Ino, apparently a great deal. But a stand-alone sentence like that where we didn't even see what she did. It doesn't enhance her technique.--Cerez365™(talk) 16:36, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
Yes but without some context as to what she was doing, it doesn't really help to have it there at all.--Cerez365™(talk) 16:44, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
She made an assumption based off her training in medicine which turned out to be true. It's already mentioned in her article.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:20, May 25, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Sakura Genjutsu
You know, instead of replying to me in the talk page, that is the sort of stuff you can simply revert in the article and mention the source in the edit summary. Adding the reference to the article also helps. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:49, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
- I think I ended up reverting that at the time over the generic "a ninja", if you had put in Iruka, I'd probably would have checked it more thoroughly at the time. Anyway, restored it. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:55, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Sakura's Taijutsu
Simple...the examples you wrote were of almost no importance and in no way relevant to display her hand-to-hand skills compared to the other examples already written in the section. Darksusanoo (talk) 03:40, June 24, 2013 (UTC)
- The difference is Shikamaru managed to hold his own against a S-rank ninja who's entire fighting revolves around close-range combat, despite not being well-versed or specialzing in taijutsu. Sakura on the other is well-versed in taijutsu, hell she was trained by Tsunade, with several examples already written...so again your examples don't hold much water, and the only actual time in Part I that Sakura had any noteworthy taijutsu fight was against Ino in the Chunnin Exams, which was also stated to be an average fight at best. Darksusanoo (talk) 03:56, June 24, 2013 (UTC)
- No need to apologize...take some time, study the characters pages, and work to make better edits. Darksusanoo (talk) 17:36, June 24, 2013 (UTC)
Nah...as i said before they only notewhorthy taijutsu bout either one of the girls had was against each other. BTW you better start signing things while your logged on, especially due to the new policy changes. Darksusanoo (talk) 18:05, June 24, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Great Idea
As this is a topic that is much more relevant to the community as a whole, I advise you to bring it up at the forums, specifically, Narutopedia discussions. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:40, July 21, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Shikamaru Swordplay
Not quite...since his use of it is a very minor one, it doesn't warrant a full section hence why it's under the main Ninjutsu section...abilities that have minor uses either go under that or you make a "Other Skills" section for things, non-ninjutsu related. Darksusanoo (talk) 04:14, July 30, 2013 (UTC)
Wanna help?
You wanna help? Go to the discussion section of the Summoning: Demoninc Statue of the Outer Path on the topic of restructuring the article. Read the discussion and the related topics, give an opinion, call for more people to do so since i apparently can't make an interesting discussion topic. :( Darksusanoo (talk) 04:27, July 30, 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Women's Vests in stock than that.View Similar Products
Maloja MoniM. WB Vest - Women's $0.00
Maloja continues to change the way we look at cycling clothing. Moving away from single color options and using a wide-open color palette to create multi-colored, functional clothing that performs as well as it looks, Maloja created the Women's MoniM. WB Vest for mountain biking. The MoniM WB Vest is made to keep you protected from the wind during summer mountain bike rides.
The MoniM WB Vest is constructed from several fabrics, each one placed in the zones where it's needed for protection or ventilation. Stretchable Stormshell and Windblock fabrics are used on the front of the vest, areas that are the most affected by wind. These fabrics are highly elastic and are made to move with you while protecting your body. Pique fabric covers the lower back of the vest for moisture management and ventilation. A Polygiene treatment is used to mitigate odors. Using recycled silver and natural silver salt, Polygiene is a highly effective antimicrobial that naturally inhibits the growth of micro-organisms. You can feel good about buying the MoniM since it comes with a bluesign approval label. This label certifies that the fabrics used are low in contaminants and are skin-friendly.
A semi-autolock zipper runs the length of the vest, allowing you to dump heat in a hurry when you're climbing. The slider locks down easily, so you can avoid the annoying tick of your zipper pull as you pedal. A single zip pocket gives you secure storage. The reflective logo on the back gives you added visibility when the sun dips below the horizon. A Maloja logo sits on the upper back of the vest.
The Maloja Women's MoniM. WB Vest comes in Rose, Moonless, Granat, and Denim. Sizes run X-Small through X-Large.

H2Okinetic® Shower Advantage Over Typical Showers:
Typical ShowersH2Okinetic® Showers
Droplet Size: Larger water droplets offer a more massaging shower experience.
Spray Coverage: A dense shower spray offers a more drenching blanket of water coverage.
Thermal Dynamics: Larger water drops and a dense spray pattern results in a warmer, more consistent showering experience.
Additional Product Technologies / Benefits:
- Independent Volume Control: Dual-control valve trims are what separate Delta showers from the competition. The top, smaller handle controls temperature, while the bottom, larger dial controls the water volume (flow rate). The distinct advantage to this is that you can set the temperature control to a temperature you like, and then leave it, turning the shower on and off each time with the volume control. You'll never have to fuss with the temperature again.
- TempAssure: Delta's higher-end dual function TempAssure thermostatic valve cartridges work like a thermostat. They use a wax and spring configuration to measure and monitor the temperature of the water and automatically adjust the hot/cold mix to precisely maintain water temperatures within a safe +/- 3°F.
- MultiChoice Valve: Flexibility is the big benefit of the MultiChoice Universal Valve. Once the MultiChoice rough is installed, future shower function upgrades or style changes can easily be made without altering the plumbing behind the wall.
Valve Trim Specifications:
- 120-degree swing temperature dial
- Separate volume control
- Temperature control includes pre-set safety stop with override
- Escutcheon Diameter: 6" W
- MultiChoice rough-in valve sold separately (when adding to cart, valve will be offered)
Shower Head Specifications:

Sir, Yes Sir!
this wiki
- "I have a buyer for a piece of military hardware that is being taken through town. Pick it up for me..."
- ―Colonel Cortez.
Sir, Yes, Sir! is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City given to protagonist Tommy Vercetti by retired army colonel Juan Cortez from his yacht docked in the Ocean Bay Marina in Ocean Beach, Vice City.
Cortez has a buyer who wants a "piece of military hardware", (a tank), which is being taken with a military convoy to Fort Baxter Air Base. He wants Tommy to steal it and drive it to a lock-up in Little Haiti. Tommy drives to the convoy and steals the tank (which stops at a doughnut shop in Little Havana) and drives it to the lock-up before the tank self destructs while being chased by the cops.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go and aquire the piece of military hardware that is being taken through town
- Drop the tank off in the Colonel's lockup before it self destructs
Post mission phone call
Kent Paul: Alright me ol'china! It's Paul. I might have a little result for you, but I need to speak to you in person. I'm enjoying a little R&R at the Club Malibu. Reckon you're gonna owe me a favor or two after this, sunshine. I'll see you later.
- The troops in this mission only carry Ruger assault rifles, unlike the soldiers patrolling Fort Baxter Air Base that wield the deadly M4 assault rifles.
- Once entering the tank, the security protocol Delta India Echo is triggered. In the military phonetic alphabet Delta India Echo spells DIE. The protocol self-destructs a stolen tank after a short amount of time, killing the operator.
- There is enough time before the self-destruction sequence activates to drive the tank to the Hyman Condo garage (if the player has already purchased that safehouse) instead of the lockup. The tank will explode, failing the mission, but when the garage door closes and opens, the tank will be saved.
- The player has two options in this mission:
- Intercept the convoy before it reaches the donut shop, and kill all soldiers before taking the tank.
- Wait until the convoy reaches the donut shop, the tank driver will be ordered to get some donuts, he will reply "Sir, yes sir!" (hence the name of the mission), and run into the donut shop leaving the tank unlocked. The player then only has to run to the tank and drive off with it. This way is easier and ultimately quicker.
- This mission is the only time there will be a soldier on the turret using a machine gun. However, there is a mod that enables the gunner to be there.

May 6, 2016
Police said they put a face caught on surveillance cameras to a name, and now need help to find the man.
Greenville Police said the man caught on Sears store surveillance cameras multiple times has been identified at 34-year-old Dennis Whitley of Kinston.
Police said Whitley has prior arrests for burglary, larceny, and other similar crimes around Eastern Carolina.
Now Greenville Police have added four counts of misdemeanor larceny to Whitley's outstanding warrant list.
Police are asking for the public's help to find their suspect, described as a white man who stands about 5'9" tall. He weighs about 200 lbs, has strawberry-blonde hair, and a goatee beard. Police said he has two tattoos: one on his right arm of a tribal band wit ha cross, and the other on his left arm, with the initials DKW.
If you see Whitley, you are asked to call Greenville Police at (252)-329-4706 or CrimeStoppers at (252)-758-7777.
Previous Story:
Greenville said on Wednesday that a man has stolen from one local department store three times, but now they have caught him on camera.
Greenville Police are asking for help identifying the man caught on Sears store surveillance on Sunday, March 10th.
Police said the man took a 40" Samsung flat-screen television, and loaded it into a waiting white, GMC Sierra pickup truck with a duct tape covered license plate.
Police said a woman was driving the get away truck.
Investigators said the same man has stolen from the Sears store three times, including the most recent event.
If you can help police identify the man or track him down, you are asked to call CrimeStoppers at (252)-758-7777.

- Abstract
- The PhD project is by far the largest individual research, writing and software project that I have undertaken. This essay provides an information account of my project management experiences over the course of the project. This project debrief is presented as review of the practices that worked (Section II. ) practices that failed (Section III. ) and practices that will be considered if the project were to be repeated (Section IV. ). Finally the general principles and best practices are considered (Section V. ).The motivation for this work was to articulate and capture the general research project management lessons learned as a guide for future project design and work ethic. This is a personal account meaning that the applicability of the practices are relative to my experience and working style. Before the research project I was a trained software engineer with four years of practical work experience in industry. The research project was completed in the field of Computational Intelligence, a sub-field of Artificial Intelligence with strong themes of abstraction information processing and empirical simulation. The general work ethic involved an approximate 50-hour workweek and explicit separation of work from personal with regard to both physical location and activities undertaken [Introduction].

SARASOTA, Fla. (AP) -- A homeless man spent the night in a southwest Florida jail after a police officer accused him of stealing by charging his cell phone at a public park.
An arrest report says that a Sarasota police sergeant spotted 28-year-old Darren Kersey charging his phone Sunday evening in a public picnic shelter at Gillespie Park. The sergeant told Kersey that the "theft of city utilities will not be tolerated during this bad economy" and then arrested him on a misdemeanor charge of theft of utilities.
Unable to pay the $500 bond, Kersey spent the night in jail. Kersey was released Monday morning after a judge threw the case out, saying the sergeant lacked the legal justification to make the arrest.

Follow us:
By Rabbi Robert Harris | Associate Professor of Bible
posted on October 17, 2009 / 29 Tishrei 5770
(Full disclosure: these thoughts are taken from a book I am in the process of writing, tentatively entitled Unfolding the Text).
There is a verse that I love to invoke whenever I teach about "the poetics of biblical narrative," and it doesn't come from this week's portion (but who's keeping score, anyway?). Instead, it is found in the first extended legal section, Parashat Mishpatim (Exod. 21–24). Loosely translated, this is the text: "In all charges of misunderstanding . . . whereof one party alleges, 'This is it!'—the case of both parties shall come before God" (Exod. 22:8); the Hebrew phrase underlying the words "this is it!" is: כי הוא זה (ki hu zeh). The verse seems to be addressing a case in which no one side has a total claim on the truth; in such a case, then, one is bidden to consider both possibilities.
The reason that I like this verse is that I think it expresses the essential nature of biblical composition: the rule is not that one can discover "the" meaning of Scripture. Rather, the rule is that the Bible is always (oh, all right, "almost always") delightfully ambiguous, and one's job as a reader is to determine the range of potentially reasonable interpretations, or "meanings" of Scripture. I could give you dozens of perfectly fine examples of this rule, but—thankfully—I will not.
However, one case should suffice for now and, yes, let's take it from this week's parashah, B'reishit. Heck, let's take it from the very first verse of the portion, and as long as we're at it, let's begin with the very first word, b'reishit:
As you see, I have not translated the text; this is deliberate, because I think most of us can at least, for now, conjure up the beginning of the Torah in our mind's eye (the text is Genesis 1:1–3, if you're scoring at home). Most of us remember the translation of the famous King James Bible, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." This translation finds its root in the Greek and Latin rendering of the verse (the Latin is in principio creavit Deus caelum et terram), and also, as it happens, the thirteenth-century commentary of Rabbi David Kimhi (Radak). This is, in my humble opinion, a perfectly reasonable understanding. But is it, in fact, the best or even the only possible interpretation? I think not! (Descartes said that once, and disappeared! Ahem.)
Let us turn instead to the commentary of Rashi (R. Shelomo Yitzhaki):
B'reishit bara: This text says nothing other than "explain me"! This is as our Rabbis have taught: For the sake of the Torah, which is called the beginning of his way (Prov. 8:22); and for the sake of Israel, which is called the first of his produce (Jer. 2:3).
Now, that made it all clear, no?
Well, of course, not. What we need to do is to "unpack" Rashi. As the question popularized by the late Nehama Leibowitz would put it, "Mah kasheh le Rashi?" Literally, this question asks "what is difficult for Rashi?" but a more expansive way of understanding it is, "what is the difficulty that Rashi perceives to be at play in the biblical text, and that prompts his comment?"
In the case of Genesis 1:1, the difficulty lies in the way the first two words of the Torah (b'reishitand bara) interact: if, as seems likely, the word b'reishit means not "in the beginning" but "in the beginning of " (construct case, or semikhut, for all you lovers of Hebrew grammar out there in TV land), then it seems strange that it comes right before the second word, bara, which seems to mean "(He) created" (i.e., a conjugated verb in the past tense). This would yield a literal translation of "In the beginning of . . . (He) created, God (did)"—hardly sounding like the classic we all think it is! In fact, were we to have written a high-school essay in this way, our teacher would likely have circled the whole thing in red ink and made us rewrite it!
So, Rashi says, as it were, "since I see this apparently unsolvable grammatical problem, I am going to use the tools of midrash to help explain it for me" (his words "This text says nothing other than 'explain me'!" employ the Hebrew expression darsheni, in which one can see the same root asmidrash). First, the (relatively) easy part: look at the letter bet at the beginning of the wordb'reishit. Usually, this letter means in or with something; however, here, Rashi claims (with some justification) that it should be understood according to one of its lesser-known meanings, for the sake of something. Perfectly legitimate, and now let us move on to the harder part. As we continue to "unpack" Rashi, he sends us to Proverbs 8:22, where the word reishit refers to something God created "at the beginning of His way." In Proverbs, this generally is taken to be the concept ofhokhmah, or "wisdom": God created wisdom at the beginning of God's own way. However, for the Rabbis, ain hokhmah elah Torah, "Wisdom means nothing other than Torah." Thus, in a rabbinic tautology (it is one, because they taught it!) (ouch), "Reishit=wisdom=Torah." Since the methodology of midrash permits him to do so, Rashi then takes this last value, and "plugs" it back into the Creation narrative: b'reishit, "for the sake of reishit," that is, "for the sake of the Torah, God created the heavens and the earth." Now, that is a translation that you are never likely to see in an English translation of the Torah, but it is, in fact, Rashi's "first" resolution of the grammatical problem. Creative, no? I won't go into as much detail in explaining Rashi's second midrashic solution, but suffice it to say that Rashi sends us to the word reishit in Jeremiah 2:3, and derives from its use there that is is midrashically equivalent to the word "Israel"; Rashi then plugs this interpretation back into Genesis, and it yields the translation: "for the sake of Israel, God created the heavens and the earth."
Thus, Rashi has given us two (similar) ways of resolving the grammatical problem of which we have been made aware: the word b'reishit means neither "In the beginning" nor "In the beginning of" but rather "for the sake of Torah/Israel, (God created the heavens and the earth)"—and what a brilliant and morale–building rabbinic lesson that is!
But this exercise is, after all, an occasion for creative midrash; it is pointedly not the process that we normally associate with what we call reading (in fact, Rashi's commentaries were one of the most important components in developing that thing we call reading, but, well, more on that another time!). When we read, we normally include such considerations as "what do words 'normally' mean in the language that I am reading?"; and "what is the context of the text that I am reading?" This word context is one of the ways to understand the Hebrew word peshat, often translated as "plain meaning," and for our present purposes peshat can be considered the opposite of the word derash. Since he has already given us a midrashic interpretation, Rashi, as he sometimes does, gives also a "plain meaning" (peshat) interpretation of the beginning of Genesis:
If you wished to explain this passage according to its plain meaning, this is how you should explain it: "In the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth—and the earth was howling waste, and darkness [was on the face of the deep] . . . —then God said, "Let there be light!" And Scripture does not come to teach the order of creation, saying that these came first. For if it had come to teach this, it would have said, "In the beginning [בראשונה] (ba-rishonah) God created the heavens and the earth." For there is no instance of the word ראשית (reishit) anywhere in Scripture that is not juxtaposed to the word that follows it, as in the beginning (reishit) of the reign of Jehoiakim (Jer. 26:1); the beginning of his kingdom (Gen. 10:10); the first of your produce (Deut. 18:4). Here, too you should understand b'reishit bara Elohim as "in the beginning of God's creating (b'ro) . . ."
So, Rashi says, when we wish to read the Torah contextually, we should acknowledge that the word b'reishit should be considered as in construct relationship with the following word, bara—or more simply put, the two words together do mean "in the beginning of God's creating . . ." Of course, that is not a sentence, it is just the beginning (sorry!) of a sentence. The "real" first sentence of the Torah does not occur until one reaches verse 3: "God said, 'Let there be light'"—everything that comes before this (Genesis 1:1–2) is a series of subordinate clauses (dare I say it? Santa's little helpers!). Now, that sentence would definitely be one to which our high–school English teachers would object. But that is, in fact, how the New Jewish Publication Society translation of the Bible renders it, as a long, run-on sentence:
When God began to create heaven and earth—the earth being unformed and void, with darkness over the surface of the deep and a wind from God sweeping over the water—God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
Go pick up a copy of Etz Hayyim, the Torah most of our congregations use for services—this is precisely how we now are led to understand the passage.
But what are the implications of what we have just learned? They are, I believe, profound. The main point is this: because of the grammatical problem identified by Rashi (and others), we can see that the Torah essentially begins with a sentence that is ambiguous. Or put differently, the Torah begins with a text that requires our involvement and intervention in order to achieve some meaning. And we can only achieve some meaning by controlling the text through some active participation (in Rashi's case, he did so either by "changing" the word b'reishit (by substituting new values) or the verb bara (by rereading it as a gerund or infinitive). God's Torah requires human involvement in order to achieve its meaning—it is incomplete without the participation of humankind.

Song Stage Illinois| Friday, 7:00 P.M.
Inaugural Season Premieres April 22nd on WEIU at 7:00pm (WEIU TV will broadcast 2 episodes for the next four Friday evenings, so tune in at 7pm and 7:30pm to see the entire season on 4/22, 4/29, 5/6, and 5/13) 1st Episode features two independent singer/songwriters from Illinois; Erin Jo from Whitehall, IL and Michael Downing from Chicago, IL 2nd Episode features artist Margaret Bianchetta from St. Louis Metro area and Kenny Jamison from Bethalto, IL Troy, IL - April 8,2016: The television music competition series Song Stage Illinois begins its inaugural season this April on local PBS stations throughout Illinois and Missouri. Produced by Manniversary Media and sponsored by Oasis Homes USA Song Stage provides viewers and music lovers an opportunity to experience true original music performed by the artists who wrote it. Song Stage Illinois airs weekly in 30 minute episodes for 6 weeks with a full hour finale in week 7. Fans can visit www.songstage.tv for more information on the show and the artists of Season One. Also at facebook.com/songstage and #sharethestage. Song Stage, Illinois, puts a different twist on typical vocal competition programs like ?American Idol? and ?The Voice.? By placing two undiscovered singer/songwriters toe to toe for the chance to be crowned champion, the artists have one shot to deliver their best performance AND their best original song if they want to win.After reviewing hundreds of submissions throughout Illinois, only 8 were selected to compete. Once chosen, the match ups were kept secret. Leading up to their performance, the artists do not know who, or even what style of music they will be competing against. Each episode takes the artist and the viewer through a musical journey. To start, the artist chooses one original song that will be performed in front of a live audience. Before they are ready to take the stage, their songs are professionally polished in the studio with the help of music coach Roy Wells. Not only is the viewer able to experience the musical process but they are also a part of the story behind the music, through background vignettes and interviews. Once on stage, the battle begins. And who wins? Well, that depends entirely on the live audience vote. After watching both performances the live audience, through a real-time text to vote, selects which artist, and which song, they think was best. The votes are tallied, the winner is announced, and the artist advances to the next round.

The Story of Utopias1922
Viking Press, 1962 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 315 pages
Utopia has long been another name for the unreal and the impossible. We have set utopia over against the world. As a matter of fact, it is our utopias that make the world tolerable to us: the cities and mansions that make people dream of are those in which they finally live. The more that men react upon their environment and make it over after a human pattern, the more continuously do they live in utopia; but when there is a breach between the world of affairs and the over world of utopia, we become conscious of the part that the will-to-utopia has played in our lives and we see our utopia as a separate reality.

Just found this on facebook. The art is very reasonable. I have only spent a short time with it and although you don't get to do a great deal as the cards are dealt to the field automatically. Choosing the right deck for the right battle seems to be the only tactics. It is energy base so you will not be able to play as you would Alteil. But it is a nice distraction. The cards have the usual health and attack stats, but they also have a number that counts down until they are activated. I presume the better the card the more time it takes to come into play? Anyway, I have provided a link and a sample of the artwork. Enjoy.

How hasn't Gaara been shown a user with the latest chapter?
Gold Dust is heavier than Gaara's sand, hence why its the counter. Gaara had to overpower and lift his sand out of it remember? He would have to have Magnet Release to manipulate the Gold Dust into his Sand Clone and then manipulate it in the Sand Coffin that trapped Joki Boy. --NaruHina fan (talk) 18:44, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Gaara had to use his sand as a medium to carry the Gold Dust. He mixed it in with his own sand like he said. If he had manipulated it on its own then it'd say he possesses the kekkei genkai.--Cerez365™ 18:48, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
- But he had to manipulate it on its own to get it into the sand so it wouldn't fall out. Remember, Gold Dust was explicitly said to be heavier than Gaara's sand. It wouldn't have been able to be integrated into his sand without it being magnetized. --NaruHina fan (talk) 18:51, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
- It still boils down to the fact that instead of mixing it with sand, he could've just manipulated the gold dust without the aid of his sand. Instead he chose to mix it with his own sand.--Cerez365™ 19:15, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Since he had to keep it secret to make the Second Mizukage think it was just his sand?--NaruHina fan (talk) 19:26, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Gaara might have used Magnet Release, but he could've easy not have. There's simply no solid proof. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 19:33, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

- I'd like to add that just because Gold Dust is heavier than sand, this doesn't mean that Gaara is unable to intergrate the two together, it's just a simple matter of quantity. Gaara's sand may be able to support the weight of an object but only up to a certain degree, if this value is exceeded as in the case of the Fourth Kazekage's use of Gold Dust, then Gaara would be unable to manipulate the mixture. However, as long as the weight/concentration of the Gold Dust is kept below this level, then Gaara should have no trouble manipulating it but the additional weight would reduce the speed at which this could be done.

Ah yes but the fourth kazekage controlled gold dust in his techniques. Gold isn't magnetic and it isn't even similar to earth (other than being solid).

Third Kazekage?
Why are we speculating that the third kazekage has magnet release? —This unsigned comment was made by GundamFun711 (talk • contribs) .
- Because we already knew that his magnetism was a kekkei genkai, and magnetic abilities were recently shown to be an advanced nature. Forth Kazekage is basically the Third Kazekage using gold instead of iron. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:08, December 4, 2011 (UTC)
Third Kazekage
Third isn't in the template, in section wielders.GothicWarrior (Dyskusja) 17:27, February 24, 2012 (UTC)
- Weird, I do don't see him either. And it doesn't seem to be a cache problem. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:02, February 24, 2012 (UTC)
Shouldn't we mention that the element is not a family thing, since the 4th Kazekage can use it but his children can't?--—This unsigned comment was made by FirePit (talk • contribs) .
thats many kekkei genkai. its been stated several times in the serries that even though a character has came from the family line of said kekkei genkai doesnt mean they can use it, however it also means that they can pass the genes on to their children grandchildren et cetera.184.108.40.206 (talk) 00:51, June 20, 2012 (UTC) yomiko-chan
- It's never been said that you have to inherit a kekkei genkai. The Sharingan is a prime example of this- only a select few are able to awaken the dōjutsu. I think the only people that it was said that had to inherit anything was the Byakugan.--Cerez365™(talk) 01:05, June 20, 2012 (UTC)
@Cerez, and that's likely only "thanks to" inbreeding--Elveonora (talk) 12:25, June 20, 2012 (UTC)
although their from the same clan as a whole, they don't do full on inbreeding. ya see genetic mutations dont accur ( from the inbreeding, normaly) if the people (breeding) in question are more than 8 cousin'th (not sure how to spell that).126.96.36.199 (talk) 13:27, June 20, 2012 (UTC) yomiko-chan
Couldn't this technique be a hiden?
Multiple people have been shown to be able to use Lave style with no apparent blood relations to each other so maybe it's hiden and other villages found out how to use it Magnet Style is probably a hiden?--—This unsigned comment was made by 188.8.131.52 (talk • contribs) .
- No, Magnet Release is not a hiden technique.....The hiden techniques are passed down orally from generation to generation in certain regions or clans which is not the case in Magnet Release techniques nor in lava release techniques. akz! 15:10, June 25, 2012 (UTC)
It's always possible that someone from those clans betrayed their village and went to another village. FirePit (talk) 15:46, June 25, 2012 (UTC)
- It would still be a kekkei genkai. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:59, June 30, 2012 (UTC)
Not a Kekkai Genkai!
Hey this isn't a kekkai genkai for one reason that is SUPER important. It says that the third learned it. He was not born with it. That means anyone with the skill to learn it, though it is probably difficult to learn, can in fact learn it. They don't need to be born with the ability, as illustrated by the third not learning it until later and not using it at birth. Someone deleted this, so I'm adding it back in. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 03:20, February 4, 2013 (UTC)Adam
Firstly, in order to use an ability that one was born with, one has to learn how to actually use it. Secondly she might have meant learning how he used his Magnet Release to manipulate Iron Sand. Thus your point is moot.220.127.116.11 (talk) 03:55, February 4, 2013 (UTC) Yomiko-chan
Thats not the case with basically any type of kekkai genkai that doesnt need to be developed over time. the sharingan doesnt show up automatically, so that would be a perfect example for your argument. a perfect argument for mine is ice release, which haku used with no effort at all when a tiny kid. they dont need to "learn" how to use the release. they just need to learn how to use the jutsu. but since people dont see it as i do, i wont bother putting it back the way i had it, since it will just be deleted again. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 05:38, February 4, 2013 (UTC)Adam
- Sasuke learned how 'ta use the Sharingan's Techniques over time as he got stronger. Haku was said 'ta be a genious. 'Sides we didn't see Haku formin' some 'tha fancy ice mirrors when he was little. Oh and btw 'tha was Anime Only, it's not Canon, so once more yer point is rendered moot.126.96.36.199 (talk) 06:07, February 4, 2013 (UTC) Yomiko-chan
wow you sound kind of rude when you respond. anyways, the ability doesnt have to be powerful. haku used some small lame ice or water ball. then she killed everyone with big old ice spikes (kind of a powerful move to me) that shows that the ability is shown even at a young age. the 3rd kazekage is not mentioned to have any control over magnets before he learned it. the page itself says that he learned how to do it, not born with it. i would think it clear just by what is said in the post. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 06:18, February 4, 2013 (UTC)Adam
- Firstly: Sory if 'mah comments seem rude. I'm don' mean fer it 'ta like that.
- Secondly: 'Tha Ha thing is non-Canon. 'Tha Anime s full of so many inaccuracies 'ta bother arguin' over. Oh and 'ya know Haku is a boy right.
- Thirdly: No one ever said 'tha Haku never learned how 'ta use it. it may have been at a young age. Sandaime Kazekage learned how 'ta use Magnet Release 'ta manipulate Satesu, and like all Kekkei Genkai was learned. Jus' cuz' 'ya got 'a Kekkei Genkai doesn't mean yer able 'ta use it off 'tha bat without any problem. Haku was 'a genious, so he learned how 'ta use it at an early age.
22.214.171.124 (talk) 06:43, February 4, 2013 (UTC) Yomiko-chan ok fine i'll concede unless someone else comes and fights for my point at some point of time. if someone picks up where i left off, i'll help them, but until then, i'm done. oh and no disrespect, but itd be a lot easier to take you seriously and read through your comments quicker if you stopped putting ' and all the abbreviations. you dont have to write exactly how you speak. itd also help it seem a lot less rude. just a tip you dont have to follow it if you dont want to. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 06:48, February 4, 2013 (UTC)Adam
To end all of this, Chiyo said the Third Kazekage mimicked Shukaku's ability to manipulate sand using his own natural abilities. Hence why he used Sand Iron and not just sand. You misunderstood what was said. As for how Haku learned skills from his clan, ever heard of scrolls or records? How'd Yamato learn to use Hashirama's Wood Release techniques?--Cerez365™(talk) 14:57, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
What buddy Cerez says, but also my 2 cents... 3rd's Iron Sand wasn't stated to be Magnet Release nor a KKG, people just made the connection cause it was similar to 4th's powers if I remember correctly--Elveonora (talk) 17:28, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
- It was actually. It wasn't named however until the Fourth used it. I wondered the same thing when the Third was included first but Shounensuki cleared it all up. You can check this and then navigate from there. Before it used to just be called magnetic chakra kekkei genkai.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:50, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
But was magnetic chakra being a KKG something Suki sensei came up with or did a databook state such?--Elveonora (talk) 17:54, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
- Chiyo said the Third was born with the ability, and his three Iron Sand techniques used by Sasori were ranked as kekkei genkai in the Third Databook. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 20:27, February 4, 2013 (UTC)

Born on August 27, 1952, Paul Rubenfeld was raised in Peekskill, NY until, just into the fourth grade, his parents opted for the warm embrace of Sarasota, FL where they had opened a lamp store. The energetic Rubenfeld found himself performing even as a child, doing bits and funny characters for friends in school. Living in Sarasota, Rubenfeld was often surrounded by circus performers, as Florida was the winter base for the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus, and his school had many children of circus performers as attendees. Rubenfeld even acquired skills on the tightrope and the trapeze, figuring that if acting did not pan out, he could always become an acrobat or clown. In 1970, ... Continue Bio >>

Readability & Usability
What specific revisions will make the document more readable and usable?
- linked terms distracting- Every time a term is mentioned, there's a link to the definition e.g. "web pages",websites, I find this quite distracting and I think it reduces the readability {Vicki}.
Strongly agree. Some ideas: just link it the first time in the document, or a new section. OR provide an option for users to turn off these links. {shawn}
- linked references in sentences - the linked reference (e.g. "3.5 Step 5: Report the Evaluation Findings") in the middle of a sentence is also a little distracting and breaks the reading. {Vicki}
- examples matching use cases - readability, section 1.1 scope and 1.2 audience. I think this is a difficult read for the intended audience. To improve usability I would suggest there is a need for better tailored use cases that match 1.2 and are then addressed consistently. There seem to be some examples included about commerce but I think it needs to use a better defined range - that better capture the context of the audience be it large scale government sites, large commercial sites, banks and utilities, and big agencies through to smaller operators eg a local school, a local charity, small organic food retailer. {Suzette}
- Delete text from Abstract - Abstract current wording: "This work is part of complementary W3C/WAI activities on Web Accessibility Evaluation and Testing that address different W3C/WAI guidelines and specifications."
Comment: This leads reads off the page to 2 separate places. Suggest not having it in the Abstract. OK in the intro, but in the abstract, I think it takes the focus off this document too much. {Shawn}
- Section numbering - Please consider not numbering every section. "3.4 Step 4:" etc adds complexity. It would be much simpler to just have "Step 4:" {shawn}
- [minor] delete "W3C/WAI" where you can
- [minor] add "(WCAG-EM)" to the title, abstract, and introduction
Is it clear that this set of methodologies is only for websites after they are built and does not address methodologies that might be used prior to and during development? If not, please suggest ways to clarify the scope.
- Given that the title is about Compliance evaluation, I have no problem with clarifying that the scope is what educationalists call summative assessment (like the final exam!) rather that formative assessment (feedback you can learn from). I noted a number of mentions in the opening sections about the benefits or effects of iterative testing during the design process. My suggestion is to keep the two types of testing separate because they relate to substantially different scenarios. Developers probably should not do their own formal compliance testing. I would suggest that the EM has a short paragraph to discuss the difference so that the reader is aware of this and can chose whether the Compliance EM document is relevant or if they need to go to the less formal 'Design_and_ Evaluation' section. {Suzette}
1.1 Scope of this Document - second and third paragraphs, cited below:
"However, this methodology only addresses evaluation of website conformance to WCAG 2.0 after its development. Complementary resources from W3C/WAI on evaluation provide guidance on evaluation in other situations, and complementary W3C/WAI activities on Web Accessibility Evaluation and Testing address different W3C/WAI guidelines and specifications."
"Also, WCAG 2.0 conformance requirements apply to individual web pages. However, on most websites it is not feasible to evaluate every web page with reasonable effort. To ensure conformance of a website to WCAG 2.0 it is necessary to ensure that this is considered throughout the development process. Following this methodology helps assess the level of conformance with reasonable confidence where it is not feasible to evaluate every web page."
- I prefer not to restrict the evaluation to "only" sites after development.
- I find the second paragraph starting "Also, WCAG 2.0 conformance....etc." somewhat puzzling. In the first paragraph, there is mention that the evaluation methodology is only for sites after development but, on the other hand, in the second paragraph, there is mention of the importance of conformance during the development process and following "this methodology" (which in the first para is stated as only for after development) helps assess the conformance.
Suggestion (if the scope is fixed on already developed sies):
This methodology is best used to address evaluation of website conformance to WCAG 2.0 after development. WCAG 2.0 conformance requirements apply to individual web pages. On most websites, it can be challenging to evaluate every single web page. This methodology helps assess the level of conformance with reasonable confidence where it is not feasible to evaluate every web page.
Complementary resources from W3C/WAI on evaluation provide guidance on evaluation in other situations, and complementary W3C/WAI activities on Web Accessibility Evaluation and Testing address different W3C/WAI guidelines and specifications.
It is noted that conformance which is considered during the development process reduces significantly the costs of evaluation after development. {Vicki}
[important] The only one comment I do feel somewhat concerned about is the "Scope" and restricting the document to "only" sites after development. I look at it from the point of view of someone e.g. a developer coming across the document through a search and, with the patience (rather lack of it) that we have on the web, it might be disregarded by the restrictive focus. It is also a document which could still be useful to someone who might perform iterative evaluation through the development process. Therefore, I would recommend being more receptive to a wider audience by changing the wording somewhat. {Vicki via Sharron}
Evaluate throughout
How should we communicate the importance of evaluating throughout website development, not just at the end?
- Abstract
Abstract current wording: (in a paragraph) However, ensuring and maintaining accessibility requires that accessibility is considered throughout the development process. Complementary resources from W3C/WAI on evaluation provide guidance for other situations.
Abstract suggested text: (separate paragraph) When developing or redesigning a website, accessibility should be considered early and throughout the design and development process. This is addressed in a new resource under development {which EOWG expects to have drafted for the next WCAG-EM draft so you can put the actual title of the page here}.
Introduction, Scope, middle paragraph:
Current text: "However, this methodology only addresses evaluation of website conformance to WCAG 2.0 after its development. Complementary resources from W3C/WAI on evaluation provide guidance on evaluation in other situations, and complementary W3C/WAI activities on Web Accessibility Evaluation and Testing address different W3C/WAI guidelines and specifications."
Suggested text: This methodology only addresses evaluating an existing website's conformance to WCAG 2.0. When developing or redesigning a website, accessibility should be considered early and throughout the design and development process. This is addressed in a new resource under development {which EOWG expects to have drafted for the next WCAG-EM draft so you can put the actual title of the page here}.
(new paragraph) Related information outside the scope of this document is provided in Evaluating Websites for Accessibility, W3C WAI Web Accessibility Evaluation and Testing Activities, and WAI Guidelines and Techniques.
Are there any major considerations that we have overlooked or misrepresented?
- Updates, maintenance, drift: An accessibility audit is static - a snapshot in time. By contrast, contemporary websites are organic - constantly evolving and growing. New material and novel features can be added by people who were not part of the original development team and these authors may have very limited editorial skills, and knowledge of development. As part of EM, I would suggest that that we should make a strong case for planned reviews to maintain standards and avoid the effect of drift that has been observed by researchers. {Suzette}
Related material
How much should we refer to and link to existing material as reference and how much should we include directly in the new material? Balance the inconvenience of jumping back and forth between existing documents against our reluctance to unnecessarily duplicate information.
How should we align the WCAG-EM work with the Preliminary Evaluation document now in process at EOWG?
What should the Conformance Evaluation page be in relation to WCAG-EM? (see also Eval Analysis)
- EOWG is currently planning to update the old Preliminary Eval page, edit the old Conformance Eval page to be something like a "WCAG-EM light", and develop a page on Evaluating throughout the process. See more in Eval Analysis. We look forward to talking with the Eval TF about this approach.
These comments were entered before we had the structure above, so might apply to above or not.
- [Very Important] Methodology Requirement 1.d - This requirement appears to claim that the website owner and evaluator are free to choose which users may be excluded. Human rights do not work that way. What reasonable base technologies are required for conformance? This is particularly disturbing within the context of intranets where employers may choose to limit users to assistive technologies the employer can purchase cheaply. The note at the end is not sufficient.
Example, many sites prescribe large print with high contrast to be a universal cure for low vision. This discounts the need for albinos to have lower luminosity. Without high luminosity, high contrast is not possible. {Wayne Dick}
- [important] 3.1.5 Step d - appeared to invite employer determined prescription of assistive techonolgy and accessibility support. The result will be employer defined necessary employment discrimination. {Wayne Dick}
- [minor] Relied Upon - Just hangs there without inclusion in the context of accessibility supported. {Wayne Dick}
- [Med] The note to (Web Applications): It may not be feasible to exhaustively examine all possible settings, but sampling should apply just as any website. {Wayne Dick}
- 3.1.5 Step 3. The evaluation commissioner, must be informed that if the self defined sufficient techniques are used then a future accessibility audit may ask for a proof of sufficiency. {Wayne Dick}
- Throughout 3.1.5 PDF and Silver light are basic web technologies. They are no more technologie than docx or raw text. They as basic web technologies. The accessibility open question.
This issue is particularly important if this document is going to be normative. I do specific reference to Adobe or Microsoft products as basic web technologies is serious vendor preference. {Wayne Dick}
- 3.3 Step 3: Select a Representative Sample, (First sentence) "While ideally every web page of a web site is evaluated, usually this is not possible on most web sites."
I feel that stating "usually this is not possible on most web sites" sounds somewhat contradictory (to our objective).
Suggested text: "While ideally every web page of a website should be evaluated, this may not be possible for very large websites." {Vicki}
- 3.3 Step 3: Select a Representative Sample - website with many heterogeneous sub-university example, the sample selection include users. Focus groups are an effective probably necessary.
Large heterogenous sites behave more like a set of independent sites placed under one URL. As such it is important to organize focus groups within the different autonomous site owners to determine usage patterns and prioritize pages for evaluation. When organizing the CSU System, 23 Campuses, each having more than 50 academic departments, and more administrative departments, we found that the IT unit could not get a handle on usage patterns on its own. Individual site owners had to give direct input on priority and usage. Example: At CSU Long Beach the Computer Science lab invokes the Computer Science Department Website every time a student logs into a lab machine. That makes the Computer Science Department the most referenced site on the Campus. But it is not the most important. {Wayne Dick}
- Responding to the term "with reasonable confidence": I have no problem with the term. Alternatively, if the above term is a point of discussion, you could simply modify the sentence to "that is representative of the entire target website". {Vicki}
- 2.5 Involving Users (Optional)- Second last sentence. "While not required, it is strongly recommended to involve real people covering a wide range of abilities...."
Suggest removing "real". {Vicki}
- 3.1.4 Methodology Requirement 1.d: Third paragraph: second last sentence. "For example, ….., then the website is effectively not accessible for some users."
Suggest adding something about conformance for emphasis e.g., "and therefore does not conform to the specified conformance level of WCAG 2.0. (3.1.3 Step 1.c.)" {Vicki}
- Term "Common Functionality"
Feedback was requested on the definition on "Common Functionality".
Having read through the document, I don't have a problem with the term "common functionality. However, it might pose a question mark to some. Therefore, I've put forth a few options below depending on what you mean and if you wish to be more specific:
If it is the general functionality of the site, you could simply leave out the word "common" or use "basic functionality"
Another suggestion in the line of "common" and "key" is "core".
Suggestion to modify the description (in line with the "Note"):
Functionality of a website includes tasks that users of a website perform in order to achieve a goal. {Vicki}
- 3.5.3 Step 5.c: Provide a Performance Score (optional) I think there are good reasons for offering a score in addition to or as an alternative to the absolute measure of pass/fail. I have read this section several times, and tried really hard to construct a formula to help me comprehend the differences but I am currently confused. Maybe my basic scenario is wrong, so perhaps a worked example would help? Eg what would the score show where some form elements are consistently incorrectly marked and are affecting 5 out of 10 pages tested. {Suzette}
- Term "sub-site" : do you want to add the definition to the terms and definitions? {Vicki}
- Section step 1.A, last paragraphis not clear to me. What is necessary there? May be it could be easier to understand with concrete examples. <quote>"The outcome of this step is an unambiguous definition for the target website, so that for each web page it can be determined whether it is within the scope of evaluation or not. Where possible, it is recommended to use formalizations such as regular expressions or listings of Universal Resource Identifiers that define the web pages that are within the scope of evaluation (part of the target website)."</quote> {Sylvie}
1.3 Background Reading, Accessible Web Design
This section doesn't feel right. For example, my first reaction was that some relevant documents are missing, such as Improving the Accessibility of Your Website – and that some included here are maybe not more important than others that weren't included, e.g., Developing Websites for Older People & Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web seem less important in this context.
Please reconsider the purpose of this list in the context of WCAG-EM. (Remember this section starts with "It is assumed that the reader of this document is familiar with the following related resources from W3C/WAI:") I can see that Essential Components of Web Accessibility and How People with Disabilities Use the Web are particularly important for evaluation — perhaps only list those 2 — and not under the heading "Accessible Web Design" but something more directly related to understanding evaluation in the bigger context.
(minor point: This section is not parallel with the others above it — although I don't think that's a big deal. minor edit:link change: Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web)
- Background Reading.
current wording: "It is assumed that the reader of this document is familiar with the following related resources from W3C/WAI:"
Ideas for edited wording: "To effectively use this methodology, you should be familiar with the following related information."
or "The information below related to WCAG 2.0 and evaluation is important background for using this methodology. " {Shawn}
Copyedits & things that probably don't need discussion
- 3.1.2 Step 1.b. In-Depth Analysis. End of last sentence is missing a fullstop. {Vicki}
- 3.2.3 "Note: This step is intended to identify groups of web page instances, including in web applications."
Suggest drop the "in" as in "including web applications" or add "including those in web applications". {Vicki}
Comments sent directly (not through EOWG)
- Jennifer (2012_09_29): Submitted this comment on WACG-EM 1.0 -- use of internal links independently -- meaning that I did not post on behalf of EOWG.

St. Patrick's Day Costumes
If you want to really do it up in style for the holiday, wear a St. Patrick's Day costume. Don't just settle for wearing some green. Dress up like a leprechaun, Irish dancer, or even a beer girl. We have Irish costumes for kids and adults. St. Patrick's Day originated as a commemoration of the eponymous saint who brought Christianity to Ireland in the 5th Century. It is now as much a secular holiday as a religious one. Every March 17th, people around the world with Irish lineage celebrate their heritage. The holiday is a joyous one and it is commonly said that everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day.

We have basic green plaid kilts for men and women. These can form the foundation of a classic Irish costume. Wear them with some of our accessories and you'll have the makings of a traditional St. Pat's outfit. They go well with some of our leprechaun costumes too. There are leprechaun outfits in all kinds of styles. Some are very traditional and look exactly how these magical beings are usually depicted. They're green suits, top hats, and red beards. There are outfits for women, including sexy ones, and outfits for children and even toddlers. If you're feeling silly you can wear one that's cartoony and whimsical and even one with a giant oversized head. There's also a very scary looking leprechaun if you are feeling evil.
In addition to leprechauns, women can also dress up as beer girls in old fashion peasant dresses with corsets. These are perfect for this holiday because St. Patrick's Day is often celebrated with lots of drinking. If you prefer something more traditional, there are Irish dancer dresses that will make you look great while you Riverdance.
