Stephen Sizer

Stephen Robert Sizer (born 27 July 1953 ) is a priest in the Church of England. He is banned from serving as a priest until 2030. From 1997 to 2017, he was vicar of Christ Church, Virginia Water, in Surrey.

Sizer is known for his opposition to Christian Zionism, which is the basis of his 2004 PhD thesis and the focus of his published works. In October 2012, the Board of Deputies of British Jews lodged a complaint against Sizer with the Church of England under the Clergy Discipline Measure alleging that he had made anti-Semitic statements and published links to anti-Semitic web sites. Although he did not admit culpability, at a conciliation meeting in October 2013 Sizer agreed to have his online web usage monitored.

In 2015, the Board of Deputies lodged a further complaint against Sizer, this time for posting a link accusing Jews and Israel of responsibility for the 9/11 attacks in the United States. He was censured by the Bishop of Guildford, who imposed a complete ban on Sizer's use of all social media for at least six months.

In 2022, a Church of England tribunal found that his conduct had been "unbecoming to the office and work of a clerk in Holy Orders, in that he provoked and offended the Jewish community" and, by posting a link in 2015 to an article that was "virulently antisemitic in its content", he had "engaged in antisemitic activity". In January 2023 Sizer was prohibited from licensed ministry in the Church of England until 2030.

Biography
Stephen Sizer was born in Lowestoft in 1953, the son of a carpenter. He began his career working for the Department of Health and Social Security (1971–1973) as a supplementary benefits visiting officer in east London. From there he went on to study geography (African and Asian studies) at Sussex University, (1973–1976). While at university he became a Christian. After graduation Sizer worked as a campus director/student counsellor with Agape at the Universities of London, Liverpool and Sussex. In 1980, he was accepted for training as a minister in the Church of England and gained a diploma in theology at Trinity College, Bristol. In 1983, he was ordained and became an assistant curate in St Leonards-on-Sea, then was appointed rector at St John's, Stoke, Guildford in 1986. He gained an MA in Theology from Oxford University in 1994. After 11 years at St John's, in 1997 he became the vicar of Christ Church, Virginia Water, where he was incumbent until Easter Sunday 2017. He continued his formal studies and was awarded a PhD from Oak Hill Theological College in 2003.

Career and opinions
Sizer was a Conservative Evangelical and had aligned with related organisations. He has been a member of Reform and the Church Society. He has endorsed the Jerusalem Declaration issued by the Global Anglican Future Conference and joined the resulting Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans.

In 2004, Sizer adapted his PhD thesis into a book, Christian Zionism - Road Map to Armageddon? He claims that Christian Zionism has led millions of Christians astray.

Sizer says that Christian Zionism has no biblical foundation or historical precedent. He writes that his motivation lies in the conviction that ignoring or stereotyping Palestinian Christians is a contradiction of faith and immoral before God. He suggests that "it is irresponsible to believe that God will bless Christians materially if they support the largely secular State of Israel".

Christian and Jewish responses
Some of Sizer's writings have been commended by some Christians who embrace covenant theology, including leaders and academics such as John Stott (Stott's essay "The Place of Israel" is included in Sizer's book Zion's Christian Soldiers?), R. C. Lucas, Gary M. Burge, Gilbert Bilezikian, and Paul Copan.

Some reviews of Christian Zionism - Road Map to Armageddon? have been highly critical. A Christian opponent of Sizer, Bible teacher David Pawson, wrote a book Defending Christian Zionism - in response to Stephen Sizer and John Stott. Pawson has said of Sizer: "I am grateful to Stephen Sizer for drawing attention to the legitimate criticisms of dispensational Zionism. He has rendered a service to the cause of Zionism which was needed." Pawson debated with Sizer on Premier Christian Radio.

Other Christian authors who have criticised Sizer include Barry Horner and Paul Wilkinson, leaders of Christian missions to the Jewish people such as Mike Moore, General Secretary of Christian Witness to Israel and Tony Higton. Later, having met Sizer, Tony Higton largely retracted his view and wrote:"Sizer is right to criticize the serious failings of some Christian Zionism. I agree with him in rejecting the following errors which are held by many Christian Zionists: Lack of godly compassion for the Palestinians, and of concern for their human rights and about their legitimate aspirations. A negative attitude toward Palestinians, and Arabs in general, to the point of racism. Uncritical support for Israel (a secular, sinful state like any other), justifying all its actions against the Palestinians."

British journalist Melanie Phillips has criticised Sizer and has condemned him in her writings. The historian Geoffrey Alderman has also criticized Sizer, accusing him of masking his "religious prejudices" in "academic guise." Jewish converts to Christianity such as Aaron Abramson and Jacob Prasch have disagreed with Sizer's views.

Allegations of antisemitism and misconduct (2012)
Sizer was accused in 2012 of linking from his Facebook profile to an article on an anti-Jewish American site espousing Holocaust denial called The Ugly Truth, which features cartoons celebrating Holocaust deniers and states that Israel is responsible for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Sizer deleted the link in January 2012 after The Jewish Chronicle pointed out the link to him, reputedly two months after he had first been informed of the problem.

After complaints about his link to The Ugly Truth, Sizer's diocesan bishop, Christopher Hill, defended him. Hill believed posting the link could have been an accident, and insisted that Sizer "repudiates anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial" and was just drawing attention to an article about potential military action by Israel against Iran. After referring to Sizer's Facebook post, Nick Howard asserted in an article for the Standpoint issue of January–February 2012 that, given Sizer's statements on Press TV and elsewhere, the link made on his Facebook page is not an isolated, or "uncharacteristic", incident.

Several prominent people wrote to the Bishop of Guildford, Christopher Hill, in Sizer's defence. Amongst them was Rabbi Professor Dan Cohn-Sherbok, emeritus professor of Judaism at Aberystwyth University, who wrote, "I have been disturbed to read about the allegations made against Stephen Sizer. These are, I believe, completely without foundation: there is simply no evidence that he is an antisemite. It would be a mistake… to construe Stephen Sizer's political criticisms as evidence of antipathy against Jews." The then-backbench Labour Member of Parliament Jeremy Corbyn wrote to Andrew Hill, Sizer's bishop, around April 2012. In his letter, Corbyn described Sizer's link as being "a technical oversight" and that those criticising Sizer were politically motivated and were "intent on discrediting the excellent work that Stephen does in highlighting the injustices of the Palestinian Israeli situation". They were, wrote Corbyn, "part of a wider pattern of demonising those who dare to stand up and speak out against Zionism".

The Board of Deputies of British Jews formally complained to the Church of England in late October 2012 over Sizer's actions since early 2010, under the terms of the Clergy Discipline Measure 2003. The complaint listed 10 incidents which the Board stated were antisemitic. These included statements made by Sizer, or material he had passed to his contacts. In addition to The Ugly Truth, they stated that he had linked to the Veterans Today website, and the Window into Palestine website which features an image of a Nazi flag with a swastika superimposed on the Star of David. The complaint stated in part: "we will not remain quiet in the face of actions and remarks capable of being seen as antisemitic even where they are disguised as anti-Zionist attacks on Israel".

A meeting took place with the Board of Deputies in October 2013. Jonathan Arkush, then vice-president of the Board of Deputies, told the BBC: "The thing that we did was to criticise him for publishing materials that were anti-semitic and anti-Jewish. Israel doesn't come into it". Sizer himself described the meeting as "very healthy" and accepted the comments from the Board of Deputies but did not regret what he had said.

Later allegations of antisemitism and misconduct (2014–22)
In September 2014, by the invitation of Hamed Ghashghavi the secretary for international affairs of the "Second New Horizon Conference" Sizer attended the event in Tehran where 9/11 conspiracy theories such as "Zionist Fingerprints on the 9/11 Cover-up" and "9/11 and the Holocaust as pro-Zionist 'Public myths'" were under discussion. Sizer himself spoke in the Israel lobby in England session. Sizer said he was present at the conference as an "ambassador for reconciliation". According to him, the conference was anti-Zionist rather than antisemitic, and he disagreed with many of the speeches which were delivered.

Dave Rich of the Community Security Trust, a charity which monitors anti-semitism in Britain, queried whether Sizer was still honouring the conciliation agreement he had made with the Jewish community. A spokesman for the British Board of Deputies said that attending "such a hate-filled event is irreconcilable with his position as a minister in the Church of England".

A few months later, on 20 January 2015 at 9.17 pm, Sizer posted a link on his Facebook page to a 9/11 conspiracy theory article entitled "9-11/Israel did it" on the WikiSpooks website. He asked in his posting: "Is this anti-Semitic? If so, no doubt I’ll be asked to remove it. It raises so many questions". Sizer, later apologizing, clarified that he "never believed Israel or any other country was complicit in the terrorist atrocity of 9/11, and my sharing of this material was ill-considered and misguided." Sizer removed the post at the request of the Board of Deputies, who said it was "unquestionably anti-Semitic". In correspondence with Jewish News online, he asked that evidence be provided to refute the conspiracy theory. After he removed the posting, Sizer continued to insist that it was "encouraging debate".

On 29 January 2015, the Church of England said in a statement that the comments made by Sizer were unacceptable and that the Diocese of Guildford would launch an investigation. On 30 January 2015, Sizer issued a statement of apology and announced that the diocese had suspended him from all social media and blogs. The Board of Deputies also published a statement condemning Sizer's behaviour.

On 9 February, it emerged that Sizer had been banned from social media by the new Bishop of Guildford, Andrew Watson, for at least six months for the Facebook post alleging Israeli responsibility for the 9/11 atrocities. He was also banned from commenting on issues relating to the Middle East, and from attending conferences on the subject. In his letter to the bishop, Sizer accepted that he would have to resign his ministry if he were to break the undertaking he had made.

The Church Times reported the bishop as saying that disciplinary action against Sizer had been considered, but an alternative approach was taken in order to resolve the matter quickly. The Board of Deputies praised the church for taking swift action, and hoped that good relations could be restored.

In October 2016, Sizer attended a meeting organised by Palestine Return Centre at the House of Lords chaired by Baroness Jenny Tonge, which gained negative media attention for comments made during the session. He wrote about the event online, thus breaking the agreement he had made. In a statement, Andrew Watson, Bishop of Guildford, said any further such incident would lead to "his tenure of office ending with immediate effect".

Sizer left his Christ Church post at Easter 2017. Just before his retirement, he again broke the terms of the agreement he had made by posting about the Middle East on Facebook.

2022 tribunal
In May 2022, a Bishop's Disciplinary Tribunal for the Diocese of Winchester hearing was held at St Andrew's Church, Holborn, London with eleven accusations being made against Sizer for antisemitism and causing profound offence to Jews occurring from 2005 to 2017. Ecclesiastical disciplinary tribunals have previously been held in private, but Sizer exercised his right for the hearing to be held in public with the media having access. Sizer denied the claims of antisemitism and misconduct arguing his actions were against the state of Israel rather than Jews. The tribunal's finding, published in December 2022, was that Sizer's conduct was "unbecoming or inappropriate to the office and work of a clerk in Holy Orders within section 8(1)(d) of the Clergy Discipline Measure 2003 in that he provoked and offended the Jewish community and/or engaged in anti-Semitic activity". The tribunal wrote that "For the Tribunal to reach the conclusion that he was antisemitic, it would be contrary to all that the Respondent has said or written and what others have said on his behalf. It does conclude, however, that by posting the link to the Facebook page in January 2015, he was engaged in antisemitic activity." Sizer accepted the tribunal's "conclusions and the criticisms of my conduct, and apologise unreservedly for the hurt and offence caused." His barrister, Stephen Hofmeyr KC, later stated that “It is significant that not one word or statement from Dr Sizer has been shown to be antisemitic. There are none.”

On 30 January 2023 the penalty judgment of the Bishop's Disciplinary Tribunal was published; "The penalty of prohibition until December 2030 reflects the seriousness of the misconduct found by the Tribunal." The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, was quoted as saying "It is clear that the behaviour of Stephen Sizer has undermined Christian-Jewish relations, giving encouragement to conspiracy theories and tropes that have no place in public Christian ministry and the church. I renew my call for the highest possible standards among ordained ministers of the Church of England in combatting antisemitism of all kinds."

The verdict was criticised by some, including Jeff Halper, Jewish Voice for Labour and the Jewish Network for Palestine. An authority on antisemitism, Antony Lerman tweeted: "This disgraceful miscarriage of justice against someone who has never uttered a word of hate against Jews will be a permanent stain on the Church of England and the Board of Deputies."

Other public roles
Sizer is the founder and director of the Peacemaker Trust, a registered charity since 2017.

Sizer is a member of the executive of the Guildford Diocesan Evangelical Fellowship and a member of Guildford Diocesan Synod. He is a trustee and former chairman of the International Bible Society UK, publishers of the New International Version. He is a founding member of the Institute for the Study of Christian Zionism, a member of the Advisory Council of Evangelicals for Middle East Understanding, a trustee of the Amos Trust and on the UK Board of Reference for the Mar Elias Educational Institutions in I'billin, Israel. He is also on the editorial board of Living Stones Magazine.

Sizer has contributed articles for publications such as Evangelicals Now, Third Way, The Plain Truth and Friends of Al Aqsa. He has been a contributor to programmes on Premier Christian Radio and the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). He has also appeared on Syrian TV and Al Manar TV.

Krumkake

Krumkake (meaning 'curved cake'; : krumkaker) is a Norwegian waffle cookie made of flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and cream.

A special decorative two-sided iron griddle similar to a waffle iron is traditionally used to bake the thin round cakes, similar to Italian pizzelle and cannoli. Older irons are used over the stove, but modern electric irons offer the convenience of nonstick surfaces, automatic timing, and multiple cakes per batch. While hot, the 13-20 cm krumkaker are rolled into small cones around a wooden or plastic cone form. Krumkaker can be eaten plain or filled with whipped cream (often multekrem) or other fillings.

These biscuits are popular not only in Norway but due to contributions of Norwegian immigrants and their descendants they are found in the cuisines of New England and the American Midwest. Krumkaker are traditionally made in preparation for Christmas, along with other cookies of Nordic origin including sandbakelse and rosettes. They offer a sweet dessert after the traditional Christmas Eve dinner.

In Germany, the cookies are commonly filled with sweet stuffings. They are also used as a type of ice cream cone.

Angulation vs. Tilt
Changing "angulation" to tilt... Angulation is actually in the opposite direction to tilt, reffering to the direction that the sharp point of the angle is pointing... thus volar tilt = dorsal angulation

Classification/Prognosis Changes
Hello!

I intend to clean up the classification section and give more detail regarding each classification. I also intend to add more pictures of the different classification systems.

I also intend to develop the prognosis section (nonoperative vs operative) as well as add complications following injury and/or treatment.

Hopefully this will help physicians in classifying these fractures as well as inform patients what they can expect regarding their injury.

Thank you!

Wikiproject Medicine Peer Review
-Alibabamd here. Would just like to make a few recommendations with the article. Overall, it seems like a lot has been added. I've noticed a couple of small things that could use improvement and will list them here:

-"A classic "dinner fork" deformity may be seen in dorsally angulated fractures due to dorsal displacement of the carpus. The reverse deformity may be seen in volarly angulated fractures." might help to define dorsally and volarly beforehand?

-"Distal radius fractures are associated with injury to the carpal interosseous ligaments (predominantly the scapholunate and lunatotriquetral ligaments)" maybe add links to interosseous ligaments

-"a fracture would occurs" "Similarly, ff the hand" typos

-"Investigation of a potential distal radial fracture includes assessment of the angle of the joint surface on lateral X-ray (volar/dorsal tilt), the loss of length of the radius from the collapse of the fracture (radial length), and congruency of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ)." sentence too long perhaps?

-In treatment section may be useful to add sources more often after each sentence or two even if from the same source

-Need to add sources to examination, associated injuries, surgery, no surgery, epidemiology, and medical imaging sections. I think this is probably the most important thing. The sources that are there in the article seem to be appropriate ones.

Alibabamd (talk) 12:55, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Hey! Great job with the edits on the article. It is easy to follow, logically organized, and very thorough. Here are my suggestions, as listed by section:

Intro: Most of the epidemiology section has been kind of referenced in the ending of the intro; maybe this section can be moved up closer to the intro/integrated into the last paragraph of the intro?

Signs/Symptoms: Source citations needed for introductory paragraph before “Examination” section and "Examination" section. . Some of the the wording here becomes overly technical. For example, maybe including a brief introductory layperson term prior to the medical word. I totally understand how it is very difficult to make this section clear to a layperson without using specific anatomic terminology, but it becomes difficult to follow because of the level of detail being used, and the length of the sentences. I wonder if there might be some way to shorten your sentences, or summarize some of the information with easier wording, to be more digestible for a general audience?

Mechanism of injury: Just the typo: “Cadaver experiments from the late 1800's found that if the forearm strikes the ground at an angle between 60-90°, a fracture would occurs” (change to “a fracture would occur.”)

Diagnosis: Source citations needed.

Classification: Source citations needed. In terms of organization: would the second paragraph make more sense after the bullet point list of anatomic descriptors?

Treatment : -Source 14 ("Closed reduction of colles fractures: Comparison of manual manipulation and finger-trap traction: a prospective, randomized study") is a primary study and may be inappropriate as a source for this article -Source 16 ( "Redisplaced unstable fractures of the distal radius: a prospective randomised comparison of four methods of treatment") is a primary study and may be inappropriate as a source for this article Nrnittur (talk) 22:15, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Cocos Island (Guam)

Cocos Island (Islan Dåno) is an island 1 mi off the southern tip of the United States territory of Guam, located within the Merizo Barrier Reef, part of the municipality of Malesso'. The island is uninhabited, 1600 m long in a southwest–northeast direction, between 200 m and 300 m wide, and has an area of 386303 m2. It sits atop the southwestern coral reef rim of Cocos Lagoon.

The east coast of the island is a day resort with a pool, volleyball court, cafe, ice cream parlor, restaurant and bar, and water sports equipment rentals. Visitors to the resort can snorkel, dive, kayak, dolphin watch, parasail, jet ski and bike. The west side is public land, part of the Territorial Park System. Ferries run to Malesso'.

During the Spanish times, the island was owned by Don Ignacio Mendiola Dela Cruz (Tu'an). In the late 1920s, the US Government acquired two thirds of the island via eminent domain. In the mid-1930s, Don Ignacio sold the remaining third to a businessman named Gottwald. A Coast Guard long-range navigation station was built and operated on Cocos Island from 1944 to 1963. In the late 80s to early 90s, the US Government. returned the larger portion of the island to the Guam Government, who then turned it into a park.

Military tests on soil from Cocos Island in late 2005 showed levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) contamination 4,900 times higher than the federally recommended level. Tests on twelve species of fish in the lagoon showed all but one of those species had high levels of PCBs. One had 265 times the acceptable level. The contamination most likely originated from transformers and other electrical equipment at the Coast Guard station, but was not tested for earlier.

Officials from the Guam Environmental Protection Agency, Guam Department of Public Health and Social Services, and the Coast Guard announced their findings on 20 February 2006 and warned people not to eat fish caught in the lagoon.

Cocos Island is one of the few locations to have had the endangered Guam rail reintroduced to it.

On 5 November 2020, the US Department of the Interior and the US Geological Survey announced that the brown tree snake had been found on Cocos Island. The brown tree snake is an invasive species responsible for the eradication of many species of wildlife native to Guam, including birds and lizards. It is thought to have arrived as a stowaway in cargo, and was first detected in the 1950s. It causes millions of dollars in damage each year, most notably to the electrical system because it climbs the poles and shorts the wires.

Arundel Cathedral

The Cathedral Church of Our Lady and St Philip Howard is located in Arundel, West Sussex, England. Dedicated in 1873 as the Catholic parish church of Arundel, it became a cathedral at the foundation of the Diocese of Arundel and Brighton in 1965. It now serves as the seat of the Bishop of Arundel and Brighton.

History
The cathedral's location, construction, design, and dedication owe much to the Howard family, who, as Dukes of Norfolk and Earls of Arundel are the most prominent English Catholic family, and rank first (below the royal family) in the Peerage of England. Since 1102 the seat of the Howards' ancestors has been Arundel Castle.

In 1664, Catholic worship was suppressed in England by the Conventicle Act, and all churches and cathedrals in England were transferred to the Church of England. With the Roman Catholic Relief Act 1829, the foundation of Catholic parishes became lawful once again.

In 1868, Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk, commissioned the architect Joseph Hansom to design a new Catholic sanctuary as a suitable counterpart to Arundel Castle. The architectural style of the cathedral is French Gothic, a style that would have been popular between 1300 and 1400—the period in which the Howards rose to national prominence in England. The building is Grade I listed and is regarded as one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival architecture in the French Gothic style in the country.

The church was originally dedicated to Our Lady and St Philip Neri, but in 1971, following the canonisation of Philip Howard, 1st Earl of Arundel, and the reburial of his relics in the cathedral, the dedication was changed to Our Lady and St Philip Howard.

Organist
In 2002, Elizabeth Stratford was appointed Organist and Master of the Choristers of the cathedral, becoming the first woman to hold the post of Director of Music in an English cathedral. Stratford was educated at St. Joseph's Catholic College, Bradford and then at the University of Huddersfield winning scholarships for voice, composition and organ from the RCO and other trusts. She studied at the University of Leeds with Gordon Stewart (organ), Simon Lindley (choir training) and Philip Wilby (composition). She succeeded Alistair Warwick as the Organist and Director of Music of the cathedral, and she also teaches piano at Brighton College.

Events
The Cathedral was the location of a music video of Libera and also of some of its concerts (2007, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2019).

Corpus Christi
The annual Corpus Christi celebration at Arundel Cathedral features a stunning display of flowers and devotion, drawing in visitors and worshippers from various corners of the globe. The intricate floral carpet, painstakingly put together in just one day by dedicated volunteers, showcases a distinct theme each year. Guests have the opportunity to observe the creation process or marvel at the breathtaking display in all its glory over the subsequent days.

Near Vertical Incidence Skywave
Looks like it could be an ad for the company described, though it's so hard to read that I can't be sure. Non-encyclopedic in any case. --Trovatore 06:47, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

"it's so hard to read" '''debatable bitterness. yawn.'''

"Non-encyclopedic in any case" I cannot agree with that. --Fractal3 07:09, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete as badvertising Qaz  ( talk ) 07:41, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep improved version and thanks to Roodog2k for caring enough to reach into the abyss to save it. Qaz  ( talk ) 17:27, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as advertising bordering on gibberish. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 11:10, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep the rewrite. I had heard of this principle, but I didn't know it was the name for the technique. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 16:58, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep after rewrite. good job.--Alhutch 17:51, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

comment I just cleaned-up the article to make it more encyclopedic and readable, though its still a stub; its a notable method of radio communication, esp. in Ham radio. Roodog2k (Hello there!) 16:00, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * keep Near Vertical Incidence Skywave is an established mode of communication using HF-radio. The article needs a lot of cleanup. Roodog2k (Hello there!) 15:41, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Looks fine now. Not anything I know anything about, but assuming it's correct, keep the new version. The old advertising version is apparently unrelated to the new version; can we have it removed from the history? --Trovatore 18:06, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

comment @Roodog2k: ok, cool. thanks. Fractal3 23:09, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
 * comment OK, I added a bit more clarification concerning why you may want to employ NVIS versus VHF radio communications. Roodog2k (Hello there!) 16:33, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * comment Thanks for the support! I added even more.  I was a little suprised that the subject hadn't been covered.  Then again, many of the concepts of NVIS are contrary to those in Ham Radio who chase DX. Roodog2k  (Hello there!) 20:51, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Sakura Sakura

"Sakura Sakura" (さくら さくら), also known as "Sakura", is a traditional Japanese folk song depicting spring, the season of cherry blossoms. It is often sung in international settings as a song representative of Japan.

Contrary to popular belief, the song did not originate in ancient times; it was a popular, urban melody of the Edo period.

Melody
The "Sakura Sakura" melody has been popular since the Meiji period, and the lyrics in their present form were attached then. The tune uses a pentatonic scale known as the in scale.

Expressed as diatonic notes in the major scale, the In scale is 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 (1), 10 (3); or the notes E F A B c e (nominally A minor); or in solfège Mi Fa La Si Do Mi. The melodic scale can either be represented in older Western musical theory by the Phrygian minor or the Phrygian major mode, with the 3rd and 7th notes in the scale omitted.

Because the melody spans a modest range, it is ideally suited to instruments that have a limited pitch range, such as the Native American flute (similar to the shakuhachi). The melody arranged by Ongaku Torishirabe-gakari was included in Collection of Japanese Koto Music issued in 1888, for beginning koto students in the Tokyo Academy of Music.

Lyrics
The original lyrics are listed as the second verse in the table below. In 1941, the Ministry of Education published a new verse in Uta no hon (うたのほん 教師用 下) which was listed first, with the original verse listed second. However, there are various theories about the original lyrics. According to one theory, it is said that "Sakura Sakura" is a parody of "Saita sakura". "Saita sakura" is thought to have been made as a Japanese koto song in during the Edo period. (Lyrics: さいた桜　花見て戻る　吉野は桜　龍田は紅葉　唐崎の松　常盤常盤　深みどり)

In popular culture

 * The first lines of the original verse ('sakura sakura yayoi no sora wa mi-watasu kagiri') serve as a prelude to Bon Jovi's song "Tokyo Road" from their second album  (released in 1985).
 * In the Punch-Out!! games, an instrumental rendition is used for Piston Hondo's opening theme.
 * Japanese band Buck-Tick used this melody in live versions of their "Victims of Love" song in the early 1990s.
 * Alfred Reed's Fifth Symphony "Sakura" (1994) is based on this folk song.
 * British cellist Julian Lloyd Webber and French pianist Jason Kouchak recorded Sakura on Lloyd's album Cello Moods (1998) and presented by Olympic ice skater Yuka Sato in 1999. Kouchak performed his interpretation of Sakura at the Kobe earthquake charity event in 1995 and for Emperor Akihito at London's Victoria and Albert Museum in 1998.
 * In 2003, Ōta Jun'ya composed "Sakura, Sakura ~ Japanize Dream" as part of the credits theme for the video game Perfect Cherry Blossom.
 * Dream of the Cherry Blossoms by Keiko Abe, a virtuoso percussionist, is a five-minute piece for marimba that is based on "Sakura Sakura" that has become popular in the marimba repertoire.
 * In 2007, it was selected for Nihon no Uta Hyakusen, a collection of songs and nursery rhymes widely beloved in Japan.
 * In the early 2010s, Japanese singer Kiyoshi Hikawa performed the second of the two verses of "Sakura Sakura" - the first and (so far) only Enka singer to do so.
 * Yukihiro Yoko, a classical guitarist, made an arrangement for his instrument, a theme with variations, in which he uses different guitar techniques to imitate the sound of the koto.
 * Babymetal used this melody in their song "Megitsune" (2013).
 * In 2013, Marc Edwards recorded an album featuring three 20-minute versions of "Sakura Sakura", in a free jazz electric guitar style.
 * Many electronic crosswalks in Japan play the melody as "guidance music".
 * Headhunterz sampled part of this song for his song "Path of the Hunter" (2017).
 * In Kara, a short film/tech demo created by David Cage and his company Quantic Dream about a robot who is built to serve humanity, the robot is asked to "sing something in Japanese", after which she sings this song. Eventually, this short film was adapted into a video game, Detroit: Become Human. In the game, one of the main characters, Markus - an android, is trying to put himself together in a junkyard. This references the short film when Markus stumbles upon a dying Kara model, the one from the film, that is still singing the song.
 * The song appears in the soundtrack of the video game Total War: Shogun 2, playing during the game's campaign map mode.
 * Flutist Jean-Pierre Rampal and harpist Lily Laskine recorded a version for their album Japanese Melodies for Flute and Harp.
 * Sakura-Variationen (Sakura Variations) is a 2000 trio composition scored for saxophone, piano, and percussion by Helmut Lachenmann.
 * "Sakura Sakura" appeared on Wii Music as one of the song selections in the Jam Mode.
 * In the Tokyo area, each train station has its own distinctive jingle used to signal train departures. The jingles for the Komagome and Musashi-Koganei stations are both based on "Sakura Sakura".
 * Hololive Production virtual youtuber Akai Haato used this melody in a scary version of the song, jokingly talking about herself.
 * In the video game Genshin Impact, the background music (tracks such as "Separated Dream" among others) of Inazuma - an in-game world region inspired by Japan, uses musical arrangements that reference Sakura Sakura.
 * Canis Canem Edit uses a melody based on Sakura Sakura for the ConSumo minigame.

 * Thank you. I would have put it in Manual of Style (headings) I think, and posisbly renamed that to Manual of Style (headings and TOCs). But where you put it is fine with me. i will insert a short summery at Manual of Style (headings), and a link.

As for adminship I am still rather new in time, and have under 2000 edits, and not many major articles so it may be a bit soon -- and I'm spending too much time here as it is, and will need to slow down. But thanks. DES (talk) 22:49, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Katrina picture
A friend of mine sent it to me so I've no idea of copyright information. It is indeed a great image. sikander 22:56, August 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * Excellent. Thanks for the update sikander 01:20, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

link removal
Why did you remove the link from the NO page? Do you have a grudge against blogs? The decision wasn't clear on the main hurricane page, althoug most people except a few vocal blog haters supported it... it's clearly a good link on the NO page.. plus there are no external links at all now. Please reconsider. 12.111.139.2 02:03, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Not fair use
"because it is used to illustrate" is not even remotely close to a valid rationale for "fair use" --Jimbo Wales 03:15, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Katrina vandalism
Glad to help. Someone pointed out the talk page comment on IRC and I agreed with it - I didn't even realize it was recent vandalism. — Dan | Talk 05:57, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

If you would look, I deleted some vandalism to the hurricane page. Then I changed a link where the text "Islamist" linked to terrorist. Tewdrig 14:55, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

 * It looks like I got fooled by the link I took here, which went to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hurricane_Katrina&oldid=22074472#Terrorist_Attack_Hypotheses. My edits were to that page, which had already been updated, so when my edits were submitted, it put stuff back in since I only deleted the second two with a note the first should probably go, and changed the link for Islamist and terrorist. Tewdrig 15:17, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

4 point rule
Do you a link to this rule? I'm interested in reading it. Thanks, Paul. Paul Klenk 03:15, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

The rule was very helpful. We need more brevity here; so may lenghty pages that go on forever. By the way, glad you liked the "Who Farted?" piece. I had fun writing it. Paul Klenk 13:01, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Links
Why did you just vandalize Hurricane Katrina by inserting dozens of irrelvent and nonfunctioning links? Yes, some of them are probably okay. But links are not like article text, they don't take work to create and having the huge list just encourages people to add more. This is why it grew exponentially after I stopped trimming it every hour or so. If you'd like to include more links be specific in what you include. I did not remove all links, but only the ones which were clearly not sources for the article text. 24.165.233.150 03:06, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * (well dozens was an exageration, but there were about 10 that were non working for me here), I just wanted to add that a majority of the working links I removed were links on things like the science of hurricanes most of which are actually linked from the article on those subjects. --24.165.233.150 03:10, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Ah, I didn't remove all of them. I left the references in (which need to eventually get cites in the article). In my second pass I also merged back in the government links. Linking mile of current event suff will just cause the article to gain more. It must stay focused if we are to keep everyone from contributing their favorite links. 24.165.233.150 03:12, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

on dzl language
Maybe this isn't the best place to raise this but I'm not crazy about the idea of someone who's 76 edits deep into wikipedia putting a template I put a decent amount of work into up for deletion. other people make good points and have plausible arguments for deletion but user:patrick Lucas seems to be a ghost to this matter since he put it up for deletion. Do you know this guy? Help me understand what's going on here.McVonn 04:28, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

that's cool
but don't ya see? no one cares to delete something until it gets nominated. until he decided to nominate it (still haven't heard any explanation why he thinks the lang isn't real) no one cared that I was using it. I had this template since august 4. So, it's doesn't matter who nominates it- you'r right there. I will not focus on the person. I think why it gets nominated matters, tho. I think perhaps I'm fighting on the wrong page at this point. I'v already agreed to have the original template in question deleted or used for a more established language. I just want to be able to use a template not a fakey user-style thing. McVonn 04:58, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

Bizarre Letter to Jimbo Wales
I think that you only think you didn't understand it. Those of us who have been editing the same articles as that editor/troll have been reading the same sort of rant for months. However, his implication that Hurricane Katrina was the Wrath of God against bad government is even more bizarre than what he has previously posted.

I think that he may be doing other editors a favor by posting those weird letters to Jimb Wales, in case Jimbo Wales decides that he needs to be banned. Robert McClenon 11:48, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Rehnquist Article changes
I have been making proper additions to the William Rehnquist article all day and been besically fighting with those people who would destroy and erase my meaningful and insightful additions to the "Early Life" portion of the article, and then I get a message from you regarding those changes. Instead of attacking me you should be making sure that whoever is erasing my additions is blocked from doing that. Nothing that I added to the Rehnquist page is without backup and if anyone wants to question me on such changes can come and talk to me directly. What the hell is going on with this website. It almost seems like additions to the website which would appear to be progressive or in any way anti-conservative get the back of the hand. Fix this!!!

Hello, thanks for looking at my edit of the Rehnquist article. Again, the talk page "blanking" was merely an accident. I was only trying to delete my own comments - which were not elicitng a response. However, regarding my additions of the Alan Dershowitz reference: The issue of the "goose stepping" and heil hitlering" is well documented and even referenced in the Alan Dershowitz article which is appended at the end of the article - I suggest you read it and inform whether you think it is still something that should not be added.

Simply because something has a negative point of view does not necessarily mean it should be excluded from an article. Thanks for your response Titoxd. Krocha12345 - Sept. 7, 2005

Esperanza made less bureaucratic
Hello again, I have (unilatterly) taken away the 'assembly' idea, as per my reasons at that edit summary and per Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Charter. I have left the admin general, as some leadership is good. Now, all you have to do is be a member to establish consensus, the whole assembly idea is gone. Also, I have added an advisory committee, of four members, with limited power besides watching over the admin general and making sure he doesn't do anything stupid. Please look at the ammended charter, and I would love a comment. R e  dwolf24  (talk) 00:33, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Hello Spamlist!
Ah, my first ever spam mass produced and mailed to the spamlist. Well first of all let me re-state that we have an irc channel, #wp-esperanza, and its been rather empty, so I'd appreciate it if you come, even if you just idle about. Now, the evil polls have closed, and I left a justification note for running the evil polls. Nothing has really changed, but at least I have somewhat of a consensus. I hope to figure out a way to overturn my power to JCarriker somehow, I'll figure out a way :-) Meanwhile, I've been busy reforming the mediation system where I am the chairman now, er, acting chairman.

WV Highways
Several West Virginian, have been spending time working on this project when we can. We have jobs, and can't work on this thing 100% of the time. It takes time to finish a project. Sorry if it is not up to your speed. I have other history items on West Virginia, I want to be working on. A Template grid is very easy to navigate, a list takes up more screen space and is harder to navigate. As a matter of courtesy, if I see someone has put a lot of time on a project on Wiki, I leave it alone. I might suggest a change, but I will not go in and vandalise someone else work. I suggest you do the same. --71Demon 04:19, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

California Highways
I want to express my opinion. My intent is to bring it up for deletion in favor of a template. Since templates are easier to read than lists. List are ackward. Templates are compact, and show more data on a smaller space on the screen. I figure our opinions are equal, so I should express mine. I would like to know to proper format to cause a discussion to start on the California Highway System. I believe there should be uniformity and each state Highway System should have a template like the US, Interstate and ADHS. That is my opinion. --71Demon 04:52, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

re More on DR
The people to ping are, so far as I can see, those in Wikipedia talk:Votes for undeletion — the main section of the discussion, the final sig in which is you. I think all the other sections are conducted by strict subsets of the same editors. We should obviously ping those who would oppose as well. Message like, say, hmmm....:
 * Hi. You were involved in the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Votes for undeletion which looked to establish a Deletion Review process in place of VfU. There is now a discussion about how we might construct the mechanics of such a process. The current proposal suggests that debates be relisted on AfD if there is a majority of editors wanting to overturn the debate (usually on procedural grounds) and that the alternative result be implemented if it is supported by three-quarters of editors. Please call by Wikipedia talk:Votes for undeletion/Deletion review proposal when you can to discuss. Thanks.

Talk:1973 Pacific hurricane season

Todo
Changed some of the wording to a more encyclopedaic tone, fixed some typos, and added some wikilinks. I'm concerned a few of the landfalling systems (Bernice, Claudia, and Heather) have too little information within their sections. I'll let you know if I create additional rainfall pages for those systems...been focusing on the Atlantic TDs as of late. Thegreatdr (talk) 15:06, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * At the newspaper archive I advanced searched between the years 1972 and 1974 for the strings "Storm Bernice", "Storm Claudia" and "Storm Heather" and got no hits for any of them. Those sections have almost no info on impact because there is no info to include. Do you want me to add more MH info, then? Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 04:30, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Add in the categories to the timeline per other seasonal articles like the SPAC 07-08 & 08-09 Jason Rees (talk) 04:55, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I added a legend to the timeline. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 16:50, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks good - Anyway i do agree with DR that the summaries needs a bit more bite. so add in some more MH as some of the summuries are barely three sentancesJason Rees (talk) 17:11, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I expanded those MH's a little bit. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 23:35, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Rainfall graphics being produced
Bernice, Claudia, and Florence have rainfall graphics created. I can understand why the summaries were so short in the article...the annual review summaries were short too. =) Thegreatdr (talk) 19:33, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Splender

Splender was an American alternative rock band from New York City. The band consisted of lead vocalist Waymon Boone, bassist James Cruz, drummer Marc Slutsky and lead guitarist Jonathan Svec. The band spawned two albums, Halfway Down The Sky and To Whom It May Concern and songs including "Yeah, Whatever" and "I Think God Can Explain", which later became hits before they disbanded in 2004.

Early years
Vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Waymon Boone and bassist James Cruz formed the alternative pop/rock quartet Splender in 1997. The New York-based group went through various incarnations, eventually choosing drummer Marc Slutsky after he responded to an advertisement in the Village Voice and lead guitarist Jonathan Svec. Boone is the son of an R&B and Jazz singer, and toured with his mother in his youth.

When the band were originally known as Hidden Persuaders, they signed a 'development deal' with leading independent music publisher, Hit & Run Music Publishing, having been brought into the company by the New York office creative manager, Michelle De Vries, who worked closely with her colleague in the London office, Dave Massey, who had also championed the signing of the band which included Jimmy R. Landry on guitar and backing vocals, and Nir Zidkyahu on drums. The pair introduced the band to French promoters, and 'road managed' the group's first shows at festivals and clubs in Bourges Paris, Montlucon, London and Brussels, at the latter show supporting Primus. These were followed by a full European festival tour opening for nu-metal group Korn, as well as playing various shows around New York City.

Columbia Records, Halfway Down The Sky (1999-2000)
The band was signed to Columbia Records after winning the Battle of the Band competition. Todd Rundgren produced their 1999 debut album, Halfway Down the Sky. The album spawned two singles, "Yeah, Whatever" and "I Think God Can Explain".

J Records, To Whom It May Concern (2001-2003)
In 2001, the band signed to Clive Davis' J Records and later record their next album. The first single, "Save It For Later" was released in June 2002 and its music video was shot in Los Angeles. The first single reached no. 34 on the Billboard Top 40 on August 17, 2002. The album, To Whom it May Concern was then released on August 20, 2002. The second album has sold 16,000 copies and was peaked at no.24 at the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. In November 2002, Splender released their second single, "The Loneliest Person I Know" although it did not reach the Billboard charts.

Disbandment and planned reunion
Shortly following their second release, the band disbanded in 2004 and later went on to go on different projects. Waymon Boone announced via Myspace that the band was starting to record its new album and going on a tour in 2009. The project eventually fell through. During a lengthy radio interview, Waymon Boone confirmed that while the band had discussed reforming, it never came together.

Members

 * Waymon Boone – vocals, rhythm guitars
 * James Cruz – bass, backing vocals
 * Marc Slutsky – drums, percussion
 * Jonathan Svec – lead guitars, backing vocals

Albums

 * Halfway Down the Sky (1999)

Tycho is wrong
From 21 Dec detail Is this who I think it is?

"2005-12-21 	19:32:12 UTC 	Robert Balder 	USD 	20.00 	-0.74 	19.26 	Because Tycho is wrong about Wikipedia!"

Not main article worthy but worth noting!

++Lar 15:25, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Notability claims
The article makes several separate claims as to the notability of the subject without changes. The fact that this comic strip currently runs in newspapers in major metropolitan markets alone is enough to denote its notability for inclusion. Its inclusion in the Attitude 3 print collection, and the fact that is is by the creator of Erfworld, another notable comic would each be acceptable criteria. It is agreed that the article could be fleshed out to include references to the work in print interviews (these do exist) and other additional sources. However, to say that the article makes no claims to notability of the subject is incorrect. Please remove this tag.

Agreed. Publication in major print newspapers alone should be sufficient to be notable. A list of print publications that currently or have previously featured this comic can be found on the website's front page: http://partiallyclips.com/. This tag needs removing, and even a modicum of research would have shown that it should never have be added in the first place. 76.22.111.251 22:22, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

I third this. I mean, five years of comics in and of themselves is a big deal for a webcomic, and this one actually made the jump to newspapers.

Seeing no further argument in the other direction, and noting direct references to three print publications and indirect references to around 25, it appears to me that the article has sufficiently established notability. I'm removing the tag. DarthParadox 20:47, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

King and Jester image
The King and Jester comic was inappropriately speedy-deleted. The policy cited refers to non-free content; however, the comic in question has been released by its author.

The comic has had its notification updated to reflect a complete release into public domain. I've reuploaded it into Wikimedia Commons with the new notification, and relinked it in the article. DarthParadox 23:02, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Mount Andromeda (South Sandwich Islands)

Mount Andromeda is, at 550 m, the higher and more southerly of the twin ice domes, this one marking the summit of Candlemas Island, South Sandwich Islands. It was named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1971 in association with nearby Mount Perseus, the name referring to Andromeda, the mythical heroine rescued from a sea monster by the hero Perseus.
