Wake County
NCDOT convenes talks on dispute over CAT bus fares and free R-Line
Southeast Raleigh community leaders, who are raising equity issues around the fare-free, tax-supported R-Line bus that serves downtown shoppers and tourists, have gotten the ear of state Transportation Secretary Tony Tata in their campaign to block a planned increase in the bus fares paid by other Capital Area Transit riders.
The Raleigh Transit Authority is expected Thursday to approve an Oct. 1 start date for the first CAT fare hike since 2007. The base cash fare is set to rise from $1 to $1.25, and a 31-day pass will go from $36 to $45.
But a state DOT spokesman said Wednesday that Tata believes that CAT critics Octavia Rainey and Danny Coleman have raised "some valid questions" about the R-Line.
"He agreed to broker a discussion between all parties, so the community could be heard on thoughts and concerns about the R-Line and possible connections to the new downtown grocery store and other parts of Southeast Raleigh," DOT Deputy Secretary Mike Charbonneau said.
Rainey contends that the burden of a fare increase will fall unfairly on low-income African-American residents who depend on public transportation and make up most of CAT's ridership. City officials are considering expanding the R-Line downtown circulator bus route to include the upscale Cameron Village area.
Coleman has suggested routing it in the opposite direction to Southeast Raleigh. Former State Budget Director Art Pope recently announced a Roses variety store and grocery will be opened there at the former site of a Kroger supermarket.
Rainey and David Eatman, Raleigh's transit administrator, said they would meet next week in the DOT office of Debbie Collins, the state public transportation director. Tata will take part in the talks, Charbonneau said.
Tata, Coleman and Rainey "have a strong working relationship" dating from Tata's time as Wake County school superintendent, Charbonneau said. Rainey said she had asked Tata to get involved in the CAT issue.
"I asked the secretary to look at this issue of the fare increase, the R-Line being a free bus, and to look at the equity issue and make sure we don't have any federal or state dollars involved with this," Rainey said. The city spends $800,000 a year for the R-Line.
The Raleigh Transit Authority approved the CAT fare increases earlier this year and said it also planned to raise its rates again in 2016. CAT officials have said they want to expand bus service on several routes, and to help offset increases in operating expenses.
Eatman said he had hoped to make the new rates effective next week, when the three-county Triangle Transit also will increase fares for most of its riders.
"We would like to have been at the same time as Triangle Transit, but they were able to move forward a little quicker than we were," Eatman said. Staff writer Colin Campbell contributed.

A Poet Rewrites the War on Drugs
Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Greece, Spain…all these countries' popular revolts have captured our attention for very good reasons. From Mexico, in contrast, we get only images of a vicious drug war.
But something remarkable is happening in Mexico.
On March 28 this year, the prominent poet Javier Sicilia lost his 24-year-old son, Juan Francisco, to senseless assassination, allegedly by a drug gang leader, just weeks before he was to graduate from the university. Javier transformed his pain—"this is my last poem," he wrote; "I no longer have poetry in my heart"—into a movement of moral indignation against the mass killings of innocent people.
His public letter to both politicians and criminals gave voice to the nation's anguish. Like the Zapatista cry: Basta ya! in 1994, Javier summarized the unbearable with Estamos hasta la madre (an untranslatable expression to say what can no longer be borne or suffered). Javier's pain moved people to join his call for dialogue and transparency with the politicians, police, drug lords, and all those paralyzed by fear into silence. In these short weeks, he has become a source of inspiration for millions. Thousands marched from Cuernavaca to Mexico City, ending with a massive rally in the capital's main square. Later, this march turned into a caravan that traveled to the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juárez and then crossed into El Paso, Texas, for a rally with supporters.
Those who find hope in this peaceful, democratic mobilization are describing it as a new kind of revolution.
Madhu Suri Prakash, a contributing editor to YES! Magazine,interviewed Javier in July.
Madhu Suri Prakash: A few days after the death of your son, Juan Francisco, you wrote a poem for him, which you said would be your last poem. Everything you're doing, however, is pure poetry. Because of your poetics of peace, women who were terrorized into silence by the loss of their children are now moved to speak out and share their anguish. Your poetics of peace are nourishing the courage we need to overcome the fear that keeps us silent and hidden.
Javier Sicilia: The dream of any poetic tradition is to be transformed into action. Jacques Maritain, a Catholic philosopher, said: "The poet making poetry mimics the Creator." In that sense, he gives back to the tribe its reality; its meanings.
When people begin drawing from their moral reserve, when people express truth and fairness—the qualities that make us human—we are mimicking God's being. In such moments, we become poetry in action.
Our peaceful movement is that kind of poetry—it has brought out the best of our people.
Madhu Suri Prakash: What is amazing about this grassroots movement, I am told, is that people are organizing themselves without leaders. People who are moved by your peaceful response, your letters and interviews/speeches, they are not being lead by anyone. They are organizing themselves to come to plazas, to walk to Cuidad Juárez and to Mexico City. Do you think this is true?
Javier Sicilia: Yes. I believe that all we did was to name a truth that is evident and yet hidden behind interpretations and ideology.
Suddenly, with the death of my son, it could no longer be denied. People started pouring into the streets and plazas in response to this naming. Their dead—the pain of the nation—was rendered naked. Now we know that we are all part of the same pain. This recognition has brought us together to begin organizing to end this war being waged on us—to find peace.
Now, despite their fear, people are finding the courage and the solidarity to come out and show their faces. Our movement has no leader, only voices that speak out and organize.
There is poetic truth and poetic mystery in all this. The poets, as Mallarmé once said, are the voice of the tribe. Poets and prophets give back to their tribe meanings that get lost. That is what is happening here. When you give back the lost meanings to the tribe; when you name those meanings, the tribe emerges, the mobilization emerges, the moral reserve of the people surges. Once the pain is spoken and cannot be hidden, people begin organizing themselves; they begin moving.
Madhu Suri Prakash: Our conversation brings another poet to mind: John Berger. He wrote, years ago: "To name the intolerable is itself hope."
Another poet, Ivan Illich, declared during the last ten years of his life: "What I need to say now can only be said in poetry." He also said: "Through argument you can only get conclusions; only stories make sense."
Javier, people in the North know that they are implicated in the violence of Mexico's drug wars. Some of them are now talking of decriminalizing drugs. What would you say in response to that suggestion?
Javier Sicilia: I believe that something like that should have been done from the very beginning. The politicians are formulating the drug problem as an issue of national security, but it is an issue of public health. If from the very beginning drugs were decriminalized, drug lords would be subjected to the iron laws of the market. That would have controlled them. That would have allowed us to discover our drug addicts and offer them our love and our support. That would not have left us with 40,000 dead, 10,000 disappeared and 120,000 displaced…
The war is caused by puritan mentalities: like those of [Mexican President Felipe] Calderón and [former U.S. President George] Bush. In the name of abstractions—the abstraction of saving youth from drug addiction—they have brutally assassinated thousands of young people, while transforming others into delinquents.
Albert Camus spoke a terrible truth. "I know something worse than hate: abstract love." In the name of abstract love, in the name of God and Country, in the name of saving the youth from the drug, in the name of the proletariat, in the name of abstractions, our politicians and war policy makers have committed the most atrocious crimes on human beings, who are not abstractions, who are bones and flesh. That is what our country is living and suffering today: in the name of an abstract goodness, we are suffering the opposite: the horror of war and violence, of innocents dead, disappeared, and mutilated.
Madhu Suri Prakash: Ivan Illich, Gustavo Esteva and others have distinguished between expectations and hope. Today Mexico is classified by the U.S. State Department as a "Failed State." It's foolish, then, to have expectations, but you couldn't be doing what you're doing without hope. What gives you hope in this time of suffering? And what wild hope guides you to share so much with millions?
Javier Sicilia: On hope… well… I'd like to share a beautiful phrase of George Bernanos, a Catholic writer whom I love. He said that true hope is born when you have learned to despair of everything. To name the intolerable is to name the fact that we have now arrived at the depths of despair. We can go no deeper into our darkness. That is the moment in which true hope emerges.
Hope grown in the depths of our darkest despair is what is moving people in Mexico.
Our answers in search of peace are to be found in the hearts of our people. In the profound moral reserve of our people. This is no longer an ideological path. It is the path of the heart. As the Zapatistas said: "We are making a world in which many worlds can be embraced." Through the human heart, we can escape our differences of ideology, which prevent us from seeing our shared humanity.
Hope lives there. Our shared hope takes us beyond our differences into the shared realm of our humanity.
Photographer Chris Jordan's latest project left him feeling grief and hopelessness. Now he wants more people to discover how productive those emotions can be.
Why Seattle's ex-police chief now fights to end the war on drugs.
A hit of compassion could keep drugs from becoming a crime problem.

Professor Kukui is a passionate man who lives in the player's new hometown. His area of expertise is Pokémon moves, and is known to take direct hits from them if he thinks he can learn something about them. In his youth, Kukui participated in the island challenge with his childhood friend, Molayne. Afterwards, he traveled to Kanto, where he challenged the Indigo League and eventually made his way to the Indigo Plateau, but his Elite Four challenge ended after losing to Lance. It is unclear which iteration of the Indigo League he challenged. He is married to Professor Burnet.
Professor Kukui also frequents the Battle Royal Dome under the masked alias The Masked Royal (Japanese: ロイヤルマスク Royal Mask). As the Royal, Kukui invites the player, Hau, and Gladion to participate in a Battle Royal with him.
On top of Mount Hokulani, the professor directs the player's attention to the other mountain on Ula'ula Island, Mount Lanakila. It is here that Kukui plans to build Alola's own Pokémon League. Kukui believes that the time has come for Alola to make a name for itself in the world, and that establishing a Pokémon League will help achieve that. He then introduces the player to Molayne.
Later, after the trial of Hokulani Observatory, the player is asked by Molayne to return the Professor's Mask to Kukui, who is at Malie Garden. There, Kukui is confronted by the boss of Team Skull, Guzma. He calls both the professor and himself "fellow rejects who never could become captains." The boss then criticizes Kukui's idea of building a Pokémon League. Kukui then reveals he chose not to become a captain because he had other goals to pursue. Those goals are what lead him to build the League. The professor then asks the player to battle Guzma. The player wins, and Guzma leaves. Kukui thanks the player by giving them the Z-Crystal for the final evolution of the starter Pokémon they chose; Decidium Z, Incinium Z, Primarium Z for Decidueye, Incineroar, and Primarina, respectively. He also takes back the mask, while continuing to deny he is The Masked Royal.
Much later, the Professor greets the player at the gates to the now completed Pokémon League. Kukui welcomes the player, and if SolgaleoS/LunalaM is in their party, Kukui will share a few words with the Legendary Pokémon, as well. Once the player enters the League gates, Kukui explains how the Elite Four challenge works, and wishes the player luck.
Upon defeating all four members of the Elite Four, the player makes their way to the Champion's chamber and sits on the throne. However, Kukui approaches the player, saying they have one more challenge to complete before they can rightfully take their place as Champion. Professor Kukui challenges them to a battle for the Champion's throne, acting as the final battle of the player's Pokémon League challenge. He uses the final evolution of the starter the player's choice is weak to. After being defeated, Kukui congratulates the player, and names them the first ever Champion of the Alola Pokémon League, entering them in the Hall of Fame.
Kukui can be battled again as a challenger in a Title Defense battle, despite not wishing to be the Champion of a League that he created.

- Hau'oli City Shopping District
- "Hey there, Hau! Who's that with you?"
- "Woo, that's pretty cool!"
- "Nice to meet you, Sun! The name's Kukui. I hope we can be friends!"
- "That's right, yeah! I let myself get hit with all kinds of moves so I can test their power!"
- "That came right out of the blue! What's up, Hau?"
- "I see... I wouldn't want you to be in any trouble if you got attacked again."
- "You wanna go through a trial to make yourself stronger?"
- Sure, I'll try it!: "Totally focused on training before I even tell you what it is, yeah? I respect that! Just like the focus of Machamp, the Superpower Pokémon, using a Focus Blast!"
- A trial?
- "Trials are a custom we have here in the Alola region. Young boys and girls go through them to get stronger as Trainers and to get closer to their Pokémon."
- "Well, whenever you're ready, come on out to where we'll hold the trial—Ten Carat Hill! Woo!"
- "That guy over there will take you out to Ten Carat Hill when you're ready!"
- "Wild Pokémon will jump right out of the tall grass at you! You're a Pokémon Trainer, yeah, so you can battle alongside your partner, Greninja! On the other hand, if you don't want to run into any wild Pokémon, you should avoid walking through the tall grass. All right, I'll be waiting for you inside Ten Carat Hill!"
- Ten Carat Hill Trial Site
- "Hey there, Sun! I've been waiting for you! Let me explain the trial for you."
- "There're four Pokémon on Ten Carat Hill. Two are called Jangmo-o and two are called Hakamo-o. Your goal in my trial will be to photograph all of them, yeah! Take this Poké Finder—you'll need it to take the pictures."
- "If you've got a Poke Finder, you can take pictures in places where you thing you'll find Pokémon."
- "My Pikachu is really strong, too! He's every bit as strong as your Greninja, so you can count on him to help you out with your trial!"
- "Go find a Jangmo-o first! There should be one hiding somewhere close by."
- If talked to, before finding a Jangmo-o
- "Look for a Jangmo-o close by, and take a picture of it!"
- After finding one Jangmo-o
- "You've successfully photographed one, yeah! Sorry, there's one thing I forgot to mention! When you take a picture of a Jangmo-o, it'll get startled and attack you. What's more, they're Dragon-type Pokémon, yeah, so they can be tough, scary opponents! You've got your Greninja and my Pikachu with you, though, so you should be fine! Just 3 more until you complete the trial! Have fun out there taking pictures!"
- If talked to, after finding two Pokémon

- "I can't believe you beat the Totem Pokémon, Sun! You and that team are awesome! Woo! It looks like you took pictures of all four Pokémon, including the Totem Pokémon! You cleared the trial! Congrats, Sun! I'll give you a Z-Ring as a present!"
- "One more thing! Take this Z-Crystal, too!"
- "Once you've got a Z-Ring and a Z-Crystal, yeah, you can use really awesome Pokémon moves—Z-Moves!"
- "Don't sweat it, Sun! Pikachu can use Z-Power now! But you can only use it once in a battle! Are you gonna face off against her with Greninja's Water Shuriken? Or are you gonna go with Pikachu, which can use Z-Power?"
- After defeating Plumeria
- "What a great match, Sun! Woo! Pikachu, thanks for helping him out with that trial!"
- "You drew out the power of the Pokémon and showed us the best moves you could, yeah! Sun, you're gonna be a wonderful Pokémon Trainer!"
- "Well, the two of you should both train up during your island challenge!"
- "Great idea, yeah! As a welcome gift, it'll be my treat!"
- Hau'oli City Shopping District - After finishing the trial
- "Allow me to congratulate you again on clearing the trial, Sun! Let me give you all the good stuff you'll need to ride Pokémon!
- "Here in the Alola region, Pokémon will lend you their strength by letting you ride on their backs! Sun, I think it's time for you to ride on a powerful Pokémon that can run across the land and smash right through rocks!"
- "Let me read you the manual. "Press Ⓨ to turn on your Ride Pager! Hold Ⓑ to dash!" This is your Riding Wear! It's the special outfit you wear when riding Pokémon, yeah. When you ride Tauros, your world gets a whole lot bigger! Maybe you could even find something new if you head out to Ten Carat Hill... I'll be at the Pokémon Center, so if you need me, just stop by!"

- Nothing: "Let me know whenever you need anything, cousin!
- Ten Carat Hill - Pokémon-catching challenge
- "Let's see what you can do in the Pokémon-catching challenge, Sun!"
- "Yeah, Pokémon Trainers can get out there and catch wild Pokémon! Now I'll show you how it's done, so keep your eyes on me, cousin.
- After tutorial
- "Wild Pokémon do attack people sometimes, but once you catch them, they'll become your strong allies. Yeah! All right, get out there and enjoy the Pokémon-catching challenge! I'll be cheering for you."
Pokémon Sun and Moon
- Intro
- "Hang on, now. Gimme just a sec..."
- "Hey there! Good afternoonS/eveningM! So the day has finally come that you're moving to Alola!"
- "Alola is a region made up of several islands. That could be the reason the region is chock full of nothin' but rare Pokémon, yeah! There's no shortage of cool Pokémon out here in Alola, either!"
- "Such mysterious creatures!"
- "You find 'em all over. In the grass, in the caves, in the sky and sea... Here in Alola we love our Pokémon, and we depend on them heaps, too. Some of us even battle with 'em, if we call ourselves Pokémon Trainers!"
- "Rockruff! Can you wait until I'm done talkin' to play?!"
- "All right, I gotta ask you some questions about yourself so I can introduce you to everybody! So which photo should I use for your Trainer Passport?"
- "You OK with the one you chose, yeah?"
- "All right then, I'll let you spell out your name for me."
- "Your name?"
- "So, you go by <player>?"
- "10-4, good buddy! I'll let everybody out here know you're on your way!"
- "<player>! Yeah, that's a name that hits you like a Thunderbolt outta the sky! Woo!"
- "Can't wait to see you in person then, cousin!"
- Route 1 Hau'oli Outskirts
- "Hey there, <player>! The name's Kukui. Good to meet you, cousin!"
- "You gotta be tired after that long trip all the way out here to Alola!"
- "You feelin' any jet lag? We sure are a long way from Kanto out here in Alola. It's still daytimeS/nighttimeM out here, yeah!"
- "Hey there, mom! I just let myself in. Oh, and call me Kukui, would you? Welcome to Alola!"
- "Ha! I was supposed to be visiting there to research Kanto Pokémon moves and all. I thought I knew a thing or two about battling, but those Kanto Gym Leaders proved me wrong!"
- "Hey now, <player>! Let's get a move on to the next town over, cousin! Time for you to meet the Island Kahuna and get yourself a Pokémon, yeah!"
- A Pokémon?!: "Yeah, sure. The kahuna who lives in Iki Town is always happy to give any kid who wants to have an adventure their first Pokémon, yeah. But don't try taking on the kahuna yourself! The kahunas are crazy-strong Pokémon Trainers. They're unbeatable for folks like me and you!"
- Kahuna?: "Sure, sure. The kahunas are crazy-strong Pokémon Trainers here in Alola, cousin! They're unbeatable for folks like me and you! And the kahuna who lives in Iki Town is always happy to give any kid who wants to have an adventure their first Pokémon, yeah."
- "Ooh, I bet you've got a stylin' hat that'll match mine, yeah?"
- If talked to again
- "Ooh, I bet you've got a stylin' hat that'll match mine, yeah?"
- After getting dressed
- "Woo, that's a stylin' hat, cousin!"
- "Your mom there... She's sure looking forward to you getting your first Pokémon, yeah?"
- "So let's get going to Iki Town! Time for you to get a real nice Pokémon from the island kahuna, oh yeah!"
- If the player heads east
- "Hey now! The heat getting to you? I said we go this way!"
- If the player heads west
- "Now this is more like it, yeah! Welcome to paradise, cousin. This is the Alola region! Folks here in Alola get along by living together with Pokémon and working together, too. After all..."
- "You can go anywhere, yeah, as long as you got Pokémon helping you out here. That's why we gotta get you to the kahuna!"
- "First, we're off to Iki Town! Come on, it's not far if we cut up here."
- "So, <player>! You're lovin' Alola already, yeah?"
- Yeah!: "That's what I like to hear! The more you love Alola, the happier I'll be!"
- ...I guess: "Hey, don't sweat it, cousin. It's pretty normal to feel a bit unsure when you're in a new place."
- "Oh yeah! Look there! Looks like an excited Alolan Trainer's come to us!"
- "Why? You already know which moves you want to use, yeah? You come find me next time your Pokémon learns a new move, and then I'll battle you."
- "See that? If you had a Pokémon with you, you could dive into the tall grass here, yeah, to try to catch some wild Pokémon to add to your team!"
- "Then Trainers go up against one another in battle with the Pokémon they love!"
- "Having Pokémon gives you a whole new way to communicate with other people, see? Now let's get moving! Iki Town is right over there!"
- Iki Town
- "And we're here! This right here is Iki Town!"
- "This town is where folks come to worship the Pokémon that watches over Melemele Island. Tapu Koko keeps us all safe and happy, see!"
- "Huh? What's goin' on here? We were supposed to meet everybody right here, yeah."
- "Maybe they're all back there on Mahalo Trail. That's where the ruins of our guardian deity, Tapu Koko, are, yeah..."
- "<player>! Do me a solid and go find the island kahuna! I'll wait around here to make sure we don't miss each other."
- "The island kahuna? You can't miss him. He looks just like a kahuna!"
- If talked to again
- "The island kahuna? Trust me—you'll know the kahuna when you see the kahuna."
- If trying to go back to the player's house
- "<player>! Do me a solid and go find the island kahuna! I'll wait around here to make sure we don't miss each other."
- After meeting Lillie
- "Hey! <player>! Looks like you missed the kahuna, yeah? But you found my assistant, oh yeah!"
- "Looks like you already met, but just in case, this is my assistant!"
- "And, Lillie, this here is <player>. He/She just moved here to Alola! Take good care of him/her!"
- "Naw, but where'd you go off to, Kahuna? I thought we were meeting here."
- "Woo! That's something you don't hear every day!"
- "Having accepted one another, you'll surely be friends for life!"
- "That's it, <player>! Now that you've got a Pokémon, you're a real Pokémon Trainer, yeah! And here's a lovely gift from me to help make it special, cousin."
- "A Pokédex is a real high-tech kinda tool, yeah, that can automatically record facts about any Pokémon that you meet. Your new partner <starter Pokémon> is already registered, oh yeah, so check it out!"
- "And this is a Trainer Passport that I had put together for you."
- "Now why don't you go introduce your new friend to your mom, <player>?"
- If talked to again
- "Hang on a second... I feel like I'm forgetting somebody, yeah..."
- "Oh yeah, your first battle already! Just have your Pokémon dish out some moves and see who wins. Woo!"
- If talked to again
- "Whether you win or lose is all up to the moves you choose to use! Oh yeah!"
- "First I'll make sure you get back home safe today, though, <player>. Lillie, you two should come with us, too, yeah. Wouldn't want to go losing you twice in one day. You or that precious Pokémon of yours!"
- Route 1 Hau'oli Outskirts
- "Hey there, <player>! It's about time we set out for the festival, yeah!"
- "But first..."
- "Now that you're a real Pokémon Trainer with your own Pokémon and all, I've gotta show you something. Come with me out to Route 1!"
- "<player>! Hurry it up, cousin! Pretend you're a Pokémon and use your Agility!"
- "Yeah, over here!"
- "So you know that wild Pokémon will sometimes jump out at you in the tall grass, yeah?"
- "Now that you've got <starter Pokémon> there, you can not only fight wild Pokémon, yeah... you can also try to catch 'em. Woo!"
- "I'm going to show you how to catch a wild Pokémon, all right? Keep your eyes on the prize!"
- Tutorial on catching Pokémon
- "You've gotta weaken a Pokémon up a bit before you try lobbing a Poké Ball at it!"
- "Oh yeah!"
- "Wild Pokémon do sometimes attack people if they get close, but catch 'em and they'll join your team and be a great help to you, yeah!"
- "But if your Pokémon get all tuckered out by fighting for you, just head home for a bit. If you ask your mom, I'm sure she'll let you and your whole team rest up at home. Or you could use some Potions!"
- "Here're some Poké Balls and Potions to get you started out."
- "Why don't you have a little adventure of your own on the way to Iki Town, yeah? Take good care of <player>, <starter Pokémon>!"
- Iki Town
- "Oh yeah, right on time!"
- "A full-powered festival for Pokémon battling! We battle in the name of Tapu Koko, pitting our best moves against one another in friendly competition to please our guardian. Woo!"
- "In other words, it's time for you to get out there and start your island challenge! If you visit every island, maybe you'll figure out what that mission is."
- Regardless of choice: "Four islands!"
- "You'll travel to each of the four islands here in the Alola region. The island challenge is about aiming to be the strongest Trainer— the island challenge champion. Woo!"
- "I'll explain about the island challenge later!"
- "Suppose it's time we get you kids home, yeah?"
- Route 1 Hau'oli Outskirts
- "Oh yeah, Rockruff! Let's go! Give it everything you've got! My body is ready. Woo!"
- "Hey there, <player>! Thanks for getting him/her for me, Lillie!"
- "Rockruff's moves were just so stylin', and I was making good progress with my research. Say, <player>, lemme see your Pokédex for a second, yeah?"
- "So what do you think of the place? Not bad, right?"
- "But that's not why I called you here, eh? Here! It finally arrived!"
- "What's wrong, Lillie? Don't make me do all the talking!"
- "See, there's this Pokémon inside your Pokédex called Rotom..."
- "Yeah, buddy! And to put that crazy skill of Rotom's to work..."
- "It's the next generation of Pokédexes, but it's only complete once Rotom has gone into this body specially developed for it!"
- "A whole new way for people and Pokémon to communicate. Woo! And there's only a few of these beauties out in the world so far!"
- "And now if I power up your Pokédex with the parts that I just got in..."
- "Hey now! Sorry 'bout that, Rotom. Guess I surprised you?"
- "Rotom! Here, boy! I powered up your favorite 'Dex! Give <player> here a Helping Hand, yeah?"
- "See, <player>? Now Rotom can talk right to you! From what I can tell, yeah, it looks like Rotom has taken a liking to you!"
- "<player> hasn't been here in Alola too long yet. So I decided to give him/her this special Rotom Dex to help him/her navigate around."
- Regardless of choice: "You can see where you're headed just by looking at Rotom, and if you give it a little tap, you can even check out the Town Map!"
- "If you see a person or a Pokémon who needs help, you just help them... Right, <player>? Hau?"
- "And that's why I'm letting Lillie stay up there in the loft."
- "So, <player>, I'm leaving this Rotom Dex in your hands! Rotom, you look after <player>, yeah?"
- "All right, there are some important things you need to know about the island challenge."
- "The island challenge is your chance to become the strongest Trainer around—the island challenge champion. Woo! It's a great adventure for you and your Pokémon to go on together!"
- "<player>! I want you and <starter Pokémon> to get out there and give it a shot! You were able to fully use your Pokémon's moves in your very first battle. I think you must have a talent for drawing out Pokémon's strengths, yeah."
- Um...I'm not really sure...: "Come on! You've gotta do it! You did just come to Alola, yeah, so I guess it's hard for you to relate to our customs, huh? But as someone who's dedicated my life to studying Pokémon moves, I really want to see you out there meeting all kinds of Pokémon on your island challenge. C'mon and give it a shot, cousin!"
- Then yeah, I'll do it!: "Oh yeah! As someone who's dedicated my life to studying Pokémon moves, I really want to see you out there meeting all kinds of Pokémon on your island challenge!"
- "Here! Everybody on the island challenge gets one of these island challenge amulets."
- "All right then, <player>! You too, Hau! Get a move on!"
- Regardless of choice: "To the Trainers' School! You've gotta learn the basics of being a Pokémon Trainer through Pokémon battling. It's a long road to becoming the island challenge champion, and the Trainers' School is the first step! What about you, Hau?"
- "Lillie! You take care of <player>, yeah? Until he/she gets used to Rotom, help him/her find his/her way around!"
- Route 1 Trainers' School
- "Hey there, <player>! I must've passed you two somehow, yeah?"
- "But welcome to the Trainers' School, the place to learn how to be a Pokémon Trainer!"
- "Yeah. Put him/her through the wringer, Teach!"
- "Four Trainers!"
- "You've got to beat four Pokémon Trainers here at the school, <player>! The experience will surely help you and your Pokémon grow stronger, yeah. Actually... Speaking of experience, why don't you take this."
- "If you keep that Exp. Share on, yeah, all the Pokémon on your team can get Exp. Points from battle."
- "She may not look all that tough, but that teach trains her kids right! One of her students is even a captain!"
- "If you want a bit of advice from me, here's something that might help. Once you've fought a species of Pokémon once, you can easily see what types of moves will work best on it in your next battle."
- "Wandering about in the tall grass to meet lots of different Pokémon'll help with that! Battle all the time, oh yeah!"
- After defeating all Trainers in the area
- "Know your Pokémon and know their moves. Those are the basics of being a Trainer!"
- "How about it?"
- "This is <player>, who moved here to Alola from the Kanto region. He's/She's got a real sense for how to use moves, and I think he's/she's gonna go far as a Trainer, yeah!"
- "That guy's Tauros is pretty much a celebrity here on Melemele, you know?"
- "Show 'em what you're made of, <player>!"
- Route 2
- "Hey there, <player>! Oooh, looking at the expression on Ilima's face, I'd say you cleared your first trial, yeah?"
- "Guess I better give you a little reward... Time to learn about Z-Power. Woo!"
- "Start off by selecting a compatible Z-Crystal from the Z-Crystals Pocket in your Bag, yeah! Then use the Z-Crystal you chose on a Pokémon! Z-Crystals are compatible with a Pokémon if it knows a move of the same type as the crystal. Have your Pokémon hold Z-Crystals, and you'll be able to use Z-Power in battles! And don't worry, you can use your Z-Crystals over and over on as many Pokémon as you want!"
- "Watch and learn, cousin!"
- Tutorial on using Z-Power
- "If it's holding a Normalium Z and you choose a Normal-type move... you can use Z-Power! Check it out!"
- "Phew! Z-Powers heap all of a Trainer's feelings onto a Pokémon, yeah, which totally wears you out! Using Z-Power once per battle is all a team can handle, yeah."
- "No! It's like I was hit with Amnesia! I forgot that I lost Lillie somewhere on Route 3! Think you could spare some time to help me look for her, <player>?"
- "Thanks, cousin. Let's split up and find her, yeah!"
- Route 3
- "Hey there, <player>! Knew I could count on you, yeah! Thanks for tracking Lillie down for me!"
- "What's this then? Hau, you finished your first trial, too? I bet you used some stylin' moves, yeah?"
- "Hala's probably rubbing his hands together in glee right about now, oh yeah!"
- "Taking on the island kahuna in battle is called the grand trial! For someone like me who's researching Pokémon moves, nothing could be better than the chance to see some more fierce Pokémon battles! Woo!"
- "I'll be the judge of that! Come on! Back to Iki Town! Catch that Tailwind and blast through Route 3!"
- Iki Town
- "I'm lookin' forward to seeing what moves you and your Pokémon will pour your soul into... now that you've gone and cleared your first trial, <player>!"
- "The Melemele kahuna is strong, cousin! He's a Trainer who can use Fighting-type Pokémon to the fullest, yeah. Might not be a bad idea to work on those Flying- or Psychic-type moves!"
- "All right! I got a little something for you, too!"
- "False Swipe is a move that will leave your opponent with 1 HP when you attack. Keep on catching more and more Pokémon, yeah, and tell Rotom all about it! But first, you've gotta go let your mom know what you're up to. When you're done with that, head on down to the Marina in Hau'oli City. Oh yeah!"
- "All right, time to get the boat ready. Lillie, you gonna help me clean it?"
- Hau'oli City Marina
- "Hey now! Don't you go calling my boat old! She's not old... Call her a classic. Well seasoned, yeah?"
- "Hey, <player>! If you're all done with catching Pokémon and shopping, yeah, you wanna head out with us?"
- No: "No sweat, <player>. Finish up whatever you want to do on Melemele. Though you can always come back anytime!"
- Yes: "Oh yeah! Time to sail away. Woo!"
- Heahea City
- "The land is certainly ahoy, oh boy!"
- "Don't sweat it, Lillie."
- "Yeah, that's up to these kids. It's their island challenge, after all!"
- "I'm sure she wanted to come see that you made it here all right... But she'll never admit it to you! Hah! That's Olivia for you. She's a kind kahuna, deep down."
- "There are three trials here on Akala Island. If you two decide you want to take on the trial straightaway, head up Route 4 there and keep on goin' until you get to Paniola Town."
- Battle Royal Dome
- "Glad you could make it!"
- "I'm here today, yeah, to spread the word, oh yeah, about Battle Royal! They call me...the Masked Royal! Woo!"
- Regardless of choice: "The Masked Royal!"
- "I'm here to teach you, oh yeah, about the battle format passed down in Alola for generations... The Pokémon Battle Royal. Woo!"
- ""But, Royal, what's the Battle Royal?" you might ask."
- "Four Trainers!"
- "Four Trainers, yeah, each pick three Pokémon, yeah, for one big Pokémon battle, oh yeah!"
- "When one Trainer's team can't battle anymore, yeah, the Battle Royal ends! Whichever Trainer has taken out the most Pokémon, yeah, and has the most Pokémon left will emerge the winner. Woo!"
- "First, just give it a shot! Pick your Pokémon, and let's do this!"
- "You there! Come join in the fun!"
- "I'll be in the mix, too, yeah. And now we have our foursome. Woo!"
- "Discovery! New experiences! Adventure! It's all yours if you want it! It's time for a Pokémon Battle Royal! Ready...fight!"
- "So what do you think? It's easy to have a fun time with Battle Royal. Woo! You even have a shot at beating real tough opponents this way, yeah?"
- "So! <player>, Hau. How are your trials going? I hope you and your Pokémon are working hard and havin' a blast. Woo!"
- Lush Jungle
- "Woo! What's that sweet smell I smell, driftin' my way?! Could it be a tasty Mallow Special?"
- "I heard you cleared Mallow's trial, yeah? All right then, I have a present for you! That little TM right there is Smart Strike—a move that will never miss!"
- "There'll be all kinds of discoveries and new experiences to make your adventure brighter!"
- "There's a facility, yeah, that I want you to go check out on your island challenge. The Dimensional Research Lab! Let's get on over there with Extreme Speed!"
- Route 5
- "Hey there, <player>! Guess I should congratulate you on clearing all three of Akala Island's trials... Congrats! Looks like it's time for you to take on Kahuna Olivia's grand trial!"
- "Olivia is an expert user of Rock-type Pokémon. You're gonna wanna catch some Grass-type Pokémon in Lush Jungle to add to your team."
- "Whenever you're ready for the grand trial, come see me at the Dimensional Research Lab! It's down past Route 6, yeah, but just ask Rotom if you need some help!"
- Dimensional Research Lab
- "Hey there, honey!"
- "This here's Professor Burnet. She runs the Dimensional Research Lab, yeah... And she's also my wife!"
- "Hau? He's out doing his own thing. But he'll be the real deal someday... He could even become a kahuna, just like old Hala before him!"
- "Whoa-ho! Well, yeah, I really do."
- "Anyhow, I brought <player> here because I wanted you to tell him/her about some of the mysterious phenomena here in Alola."
- If talked to again
- "Hey there, <player>! Go see what you can learn from everybody!"
- "How about that, <player>? If Ultra Beasts are really out there, I wonder what kinds of moves they can use..."
- "You've finished all three of Akala's trials. Woo! And now comes the big match against Olivia—the island kahuna! It's the biggest and baddest trial of them all here on Akala—the grand trial!"
- Hano Grand Resort
- "I've got my own business to attend to. You go see all the amazing tech that Aether's developing and tell me about it later, yeah?"
- "That's right. I'll see you on the next island... Ula'ula Island, yeah? Then let's meet up at Malie Garden!"
- Malie Garden
- "Hey there! What's going on with you two? Your eyes are shining extra bright today. Did something big happen?"
- "Woo! You got to see the Ultra Wormhole and an Ultra Beast? That IS amazing, oh yeah! Sounds like an even better reason to train hard, yeah, on your island challenge!"
- "Maybe someday we'll all be able to go through the Ultra Wormhole!"
- "All right! Your next trial is up on Mount Hokulani! You can catch the bus to get there. Just head to the bus stop on Route 10, yeah?"
- "Roger that, good buddy! I'll be waiting at the bus stop, <player>, whenever you're ready to go!"
- Route 10
- "<player>! What's going on? Some Team Skull punks just ran past me going in the other direction, yeah? I sure wish they'd challenge the League instead of getting up to no good all the time..."
- Regardless of choice: "Ho-ho! You'll find out soon enough! Just you wait, cousin."
- "But first things first. If you want to head up Mount Hokulani, we should take the bus. It'll blast us up there to the top, yeah, as quick as a Sky Uppercut!"
- If talked to again
- "Do me a favor and go check out the bus stop to see when the next one is coming, would you?"
- Mount Hokulani
- "Over here!"
- "Mount Hokulani is the second tallest mountain in Alola. And the tallest..."
- "Check it out, <player>!"
- "You see that steep, jutting, majestic peak right over there?"
- "That's Mount Lanakila... the highest peak in Alola!"
- "It's a sacred spot, yeah, the closest you can ever get to the Legendary Pokémon of Alola, said to be the sunS/moonM incarnate."
- "That's it! Right there! On the peak of Lanakila! That's where I'll establish our Pokémon League!"
- "We'll get everybody who's finished their island challenges, yeah, and up there on the peak of Mount Lanakila, they'll battle against the kahunas to become the island challenge champion! I've always valued our old traditions here in Alola, but it's time to make a Champion the whole world will recognize! It's time to get our own Elite Four and make our own Pokémon League!"
- "To think that, someday, the kiddos in Alola will be able to go from being the island challenge champion to the world Champion! And then, when we have our own Champion, they can show the rest of the world what's so special about Alolan Pokémon and their Trainers, yeah!"
- "Hey there!"
- "Ha! <player>, lemme introduce you. This is Molayne. He runs the observatory here, and also manages PC boxes, but he's not Hokulani's captain."
- "Yeah, I think he's/she's even stronger than we were at this point of our island challenge!"
- "One more thing, cousin—the name's Kukui! Who's this Masked Royal you're talking about?!"
- "All right, cousin, I'm heading back to Malie Garden. I figure Hau should be done eating malasada by now, yeah? I'll make sure he makes it up here, too."
- Malie Garden
- "Four turns!"
- "Bring it on, the both of you! I've been researching Pokémon moves, yeah, so I'm always ready, oh yeah! I'll take you both on in a Battle Royal, and you'll be down with just a Swift and Incinerate or two! You gotta beat the man to be the man, boys!"
- "Speak for yourself, Guzma. It's not like I couldn't become a captain. I chose not to. I had other dreams, see?"
- "I wanted to figure out which moves would be strong enough to beat old Hala... and I finally found what I was looking for. The strongest moves you can use are the ones a Trainer and their Pokémon choose together... in the heat of the moment, when it really counts."
- "That's when I knew I had to make a Pokémon League, yeah, to give everybody a chance to be pushed to the limit with their team and find that perfect move! Let's see it, Guzma! Show me your moves and prove you aren't just all talk! If you really can, that is..."
- "Right, <player>? Don't you agree?"
- "This here's <player>. He/She just moved to Alola recently. Discovery! New experiences! Adventure! He's/She's loving every minute of it!"
- "<player> and his/her <first Pokémon in party> can unleash some real powerful moves. So if you think you're the strongest Trainer on these islands, Guzma, why don't you battle him/her?"
- After defeating Guzma
- "Woo, <player>!"
- "Those were some nice moves! I can feel my soul shaking!"
- "Oh yeah! I almost forgot to give you something super important! Here you go, cousin. This is the Z-Crystal for <Z-Crystal for starter Pokémon's fully-evolved stage>... The Evolution of the <starter Pokémon> you chose!"
- "And, uh, about that mask you've got there, <player>... Molayne gave you that, yeah? I'll take it, if you don't mind. I can make sure it gets back to the Masked Royal safe and sound..."
- "So what happened to Lillie? You lose her somewhere, <player>?"
- "And Hau is...probably at a malasada shop somewhere, yeah?"
- "You think? I don't know. Exchanging a few moves in battle is the quickest way to get to know someone in my book."
- "Well, I'm going to head up Mount Lanakila. I've gotta make sure the Pokémon League gets finished and everybody has the chance to find their own perfect move! Keep training hard on your island challenge, <player>, and one day you'll make it there!"
- Mount Lanakila
- "Hey there, <player>! Woo, you've come a long way!"
- "You've made it through all the trials and grand trials that make up the island challenge! Congratulations!"
- Thanks!: "I can't help but remember when you first chose your partner, yeah..."
- Aren't you cold?: "Naw, I'm fine! My soul burns hot, yeah—hotter than a Blast Burn even!"
- "Just one thing left for you to do—take on the Pokémon League! This is where the real fun starts!"
- "Hey now! Looks like you got the Legendary Pokémon SolgaleoS/LunalaM on your side!"
- "There's something I hope that Legendary Pokémon knows: This has always been the spot where we finish up the island challenge. We wanted to put our Pokémon League right up here, as close as we could get to the sunS/moonM... to respect and honor you, SolgaleoS/LunalaM!"
- "Mount Lanakila is where we've always finished up the island challenge. We built our Pokémon League right up here, as high into the heavens as we could get... to show our respect for our Legendary Pokémon and to honor it."
- "I still remember it like it was yesterday! I went all the way to Indigo Plateau, yeah, right to the Pokémon League headquarters... and I went right at them, cousin!"
- "Those Gym Leaders in Kanto really messed my team and me up! But then I saw my team battling for me through it all, pouring their souls into their moves for me."
- "And then that last guy, that Dragon user in the cape..."
- "Oh sorry! Enough about me—let's get you in there, yeah!"
- "But before you head in, make sure you're good and ready. You won't be able to come back out."
- Pokémon League
- "Four Trainers! Every Pokémon League in every region all over the world features four fantastic Trainers called the Elite Four."
- "Here in Alola, too, we've got four Trainers all lined up for our Pokémon League."
- "You'll win your way past every last one of them. You can't leave until you do... or until you give up."
- Sounds good!: "<first Pokémon in party> can sense when its Trainer is nervous. Stay loose! You'll be fine!"
- Sounds...tough: "What're you talking about? You're a great Trainer in your own right, plus you've got <first Pokémon party> on your side!"
- "I expect you to show me some intense moves and real heart-stopping battles in there! Good luck, <player>! <first Pokémon in party>!"
- After defeating the Elite Four
- "Oh yeah, now you're the Pokémon League Champion!"
- "Wouldn't it be nice if it was that simple? The truth is, there's one more person you have to battle if you want that title."
- Before battle

Professor Kukui debuts in PASM02. He is first seen at his laboratory, where he tests the moves of his Rowlet and Popplio. The attacks cause Kukui to be launched through the roof, where he encounters Sun and Moon.
Sun introduces Kukui to Moon, who reveals that she was tasked with delivering a Rotom to Kukui. Kukui explains that he wanted Rotom, which is not found in Alola, because it is capable of combining with Sun's Pokédex. When Rotom attempts to go inside the Pokédex, it freaks out and runs away, which Sun reveals is due to him constantly mishandling the Pokédex, causing it to become dirty and smell bad. Angered, Kukui beats Sun up and tells him to go and retrieve Rotom while he cleans the Pokédex. Later that night, an Sun returns to Kukui's house, having successfully retrieved Rotom. The next day, a sleep-deprived Kukui angrily asks Sun why he wasn't informed about Sun's encounter with Tapu Koko the previous day. Kukui reveals that the Island Kahuna Hala asked to be reported about any sightings of Tapu Koko. To Sun's annoyance, Kukui also reveals that he decided to enter Sun in a tournament that will be held in Iki Town's festival.
As the Masked Royal, Kukui is also entered as a participant in the Iki Town festival tournament. During the tournament, Kukui is paired up to battle against Sun in the first round. Due to the lack of a monetary reward, Sun refuses to take the battle seriously until Hala reveals the prize for winning the tournament, an island challenge amulet. Assuming he can sell the amulet for money, Sun becomes motivated enough to battle seriously, allowing him to win the battle and advance to the next round. Afterward, he watches the remaining battles alongside Hala.
The next day, after Sun had won the tournament, Professor Kukui transports Sun and Moon to Akala Island. Upon their arrival, Professor Kukui tells Sun and Moon to wait at the docks while he goes to talk with his wife.
| Popplio is Professor Kukui's first known Pokémon. It was first being used to test out moves alongside Rowlet.
Popplio's only known move is Bubble*.
Rockruff is Professor Kukui's fourth known Pokémon. It was first used to battle Sun's En at the Iki Town festival tournament and lost.
| Munchlax is Professor Kukui's fifth known Pokémon. It was first used to battle Sun's En at the Iki Town festival tournament. With its powerful moves and resistance to Fire-type attacks, Munchlax easily held the advantage over En. By lining its hairballs around the battle field and setting them on fire, En surrounded Munchlax in a field of flames, damaging it enough to knock it out.
Munchlax's only known move is Rollout, and its Ability is Thick Fat.
Kukui requested that this Rotom be delivered to him in order to combine with Sun's Pokédex. Due to its weakness, Rotom was unable to be delivered electronically, so it had to be hand-delivered by Moon, whose pharmaceutical skills kept it healthy along the way. Once Rotom was delivered, Kukui attempted to try and get it to possess Sun's Pokédex, but Sun's mishandling of the Pokédex left it dirty, causing Rotom to run away in disgust. Later, it combined it with Moon's Pokédex to become the Rotom Pokédex.

Nikola Vucevic, Magic rout Nets in Jason Kidd's debut
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The Orlando Magic ended two negative streaks while ruining Jason Kidd's first game as an NBA head coach.
Third-year center Nikola Vucevic and rookie point guard Victor Oladipo both had 19 points as the Magic outplayed the Brooklyn Nets in the second half of a 107-86 victory Sunday night.
It was the second straight win for Orlando, which hadn't won back-to-back games since Dec. 19, 2012, a stretch of 60 games. It also stopped a four-game losing streak to the Nets, who swept Orlando last season winning the four games by an average of 19.8 points.
BOX SCORE:Magic 107, Nets 86
WATCH:Oladipo's big dunk
Andrew Nicholson, a second-year reserve forward, added 17 points and 11 rebounds and Arron Afflalo had 16 points and a career-high eight assists for Orlando.
"That group in the other locker room (Nets) is very impressive, they're Hall of Famers," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said referring to offseason acquisitions Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, and All-Star guard Deron Williams. "If we played them one-on-one, we'd lose. If we come with a collective responsibility approach at both ends of the floor, we have a chance and our guys did that at both ends of the floor."
The Magic limited Brooklyn to 38.2 percent shooting (34 of 89), outrebounded the Nets 54-42, and allowed only Brook Lopez and Pierce to reach double figures.
RUSSELL WESTBROOK:OKC fans welcome back star guard
Lopez had 21 points and Pierce added 16.
The Nets' backcourt of Williams and Joe Johnson were a combined 5 of 17 from the field and Garnett made just 3 of 11 shots. Pierce was the top rebounder with seven.
"We wanted to dictate the game and I think we did that," Vaughn said. "We made them take the shot we wanted, we got a chance to rebound the basketball and we got a chance to push the ball up the floor, which is what we wanted to do."
Vucevic said the Magic played well on the defensive end.
"We know we've got to just keep being aggressive at that end," he said.
Kidd, who was suspended for the first two games of the regular season because of a drunk driving charge, didn't like his team's performance at either end of the court, especially in the second half. The Magic shot 50 percent in the second half, while outscoring the Nets 68-48.
"We didn't execute defensively when we needed to and we shot 30-something percent," Kidd said. "We moved the ball. Guys were touching it, but we missed some wide-open looks and we made those last game (against Miami)."
The Nets, who defeated two-time defending NBA champion Miami on Friday night, were embarrassed by their performance two days later.
"The win against Miami doesn't mean a thing when you come here and lay an egg, which is what we did," Williams said. "We knew they were a young team and were going to play hard. We had to be ready to match their intensity and we weren't. They looked like they wanted it more and that is unacceptable."
The Magic (2-2) used a 17-4 run early in the third quarter to break open a close game. They led by 15 points after three quarters, then Oladipo scored six straight at the start of the fourth.
His last basket was a steal off Williams and a breakaway dunk that put Orlando up 82-61 with 10:11 left. The Nets never got closer than 16 points after that.
The Magic's reserves outscored Brooklyn's 45-30.
Neither team was able to sustain momentum for more than a few possessions in the first half.
The Magic started the game with a 5-0 run and that was the biggest lead of the first half for either team. There were five ties and 12 lead changes in the first 24 minutes that ended with Orlando squeezing out a 41-28 lead.
Maurice Harkless started the second half with consecutive 3-pointers to propel Orlando on the 17-4 run that gave it a 58-42 lead with 7:10 left in the third quarter.
Shaun Livingston replaced Williams and the Nets temporarily came to life, but couldn't sustain it. A dunk by Livingston, a 17-foot jumper from Johnson, his first basket of the game, and an end-to-end drive and dunk by Pierce cut the deficit to 61-52, but the run ended there.
Oladipo scored eight straight Magic points and handed a no-look assist to Vucevic for a dunk that pushed Orlando's lead back to 15 and the Magic finished the quarter with a 74-59 lead.
NOTES: The starting five for Brooklyn will make a combined $81 million this season. Orlando's starters will make a combined $22 million.

Elizabeth Hofacre does not go under the bus quietly:
Elizabeth Hofacre, who coordinated "emerging issues" cases for the IRS and handled all tea-party applications between April and August 2010, called Lerner's May 10 disclosure of the scandal at a tax-law conference "a nuclear strike" on Cincinnati employees. Hofacre told House Oversight Committee investigators in an interview, the transcript of which has been reviewed by National Review Online, that her boss immediately called her to apologize on Lerner's behalf, presumably because "she was flabbergasted that Lois had made such a statement" and "appalled that Lois Lerner said that." …
Upon hearing this, "I was furious," Hofacre told investigators.
Hofacre also charged that top brass in the IRS, including Lerner, misled the public by blaming the scandal on a few rogue employees. "Everybody that has been making those statements should know they are inaccurate," Hofacre said. Asked whether "the public has been purposely misled," Hofacre responded, "Exactly."
Hofacre also described the process Tea Parties were put into as, "'These cases were basically in a black hole,' she told internal IRS reviewers in 2012," and said she was "micromanaged to death" by a Washington IRS lawyer. Eliana Johnson has reported before that lawyers with Washington's technical unit frequently advised on Tea Party cases.
A USA Today report today shed some more light on how the targeting might have started and how it was allowed to continue. It did indeed start in Cincinnati, but was quickly and regularly sent up to Washington for guidance and affirmed and helped along the way:
The Tea Party affair started with a Feb. 25, 2010 e-mail from Cincinnati-based IRS agent Jack Koester to his boss, Screening Group Manager John Shafer. Shafer, in turn, sent it to his superiors, including some Washington staff, elevating it as a "high profile case."
The Cincinnati employees weren't quite sure what the Tea Party was, but they knew it was politically sensitive. "This case will be sent to inventory for further development. Political campaigns on behalf (of) or in opposition to any political candidate do not promote social welfare," Shafer wrote to his bosses. The Tea Party groups were seeking tax exempt status as "social welfare" groups.
A few days later, Shafer came back to Muthert asking him to look up how many Tea Party cases had been received, and how many had already been approved. "He told me that Washington, D.C wanted some cases," Muthert said, according tot he transcripts.
Shafer, though, told congressional investigators that he asked for the list on his own — not on orders from Washington. "No one said to make a search," he said.
"Based on what I saw at the time, this organization is something — I don't know what it is, but it is something that appears to be growing, some type of movement," Muthert said. "So when I was asked to research the Tea Parties, it was like OK, I understand why you would want me to look at these cases and see if there is going to be a million coming in or not."
Muthert began flagging the Tea Party cases as an "emerging issue," meaning that the cases might raise new legal issues that should be looked at by tax law specialists. In effect, that meant that the Tea Party cases were put in a "holding pattern," Muthert said.
In other good news, the IRS is training with AR-15s. Considering who it has targeted in the past, the agency might want to consider its foes likely have equal fire power.
Rep. Jeff Duncan wants to know why IRS law enforcement agents are training with AR-15 rifles.
As chairman of the House Homeland Security oversight subcommittee, Duncan (R-S.C.) toured a federal law enforcement facility in late May and noticed agents training with the semi-automatic weapons at a firing range. They identified themselves as IRS, he said.
"When I left there, it's been bugging me for weeks now, why IRS agents are training with a semi-automatic rifle AR-15, which has stand-off capability," Duncan told POLITICO. "Are Americans that much of a target that you need that kind of capability?"
While Duncan acknowledges that the IRS has an enforcement division, he questions if that level of firepower is appropriate when they could coordinate operations with other agencies, like the FBI, especially in a time of austerity.
But on the bright side, the agency canceled an order for surveillance equipment. I'm feeling better already.

Why Doctors Are Sick of Their Profession
American physicians are increasingly unhappy with their once-vaunted profession, and that malaise is bad for their patients
All too often these days, I find myself fidgeting by the doorway to my exam room, trying to conclude an office visit with one of my patients. When I look at my career at midlife, I realize that in many ways I have become the kind of doctor I never thought I'd be: impatient, occasionally indifferent, at times dismissive or paternalistic. Many of my colleagues are similarly struggling with the loss of their professional ideals.
It could be just a midlife crisis, but it occurs to me that my profession is in a sort of midlife...

Throughout time man has left artifacts behind which have been preserved by others and passed from generation to generation. Essentially, these preserved items represent the visual and written history of the world, whether it be in an individuals home or in a museum. Never before has mankind been as interested in the historical and collectible nature of these objects as it is today.
What individuals today don't realize is that the older the item the less extant copies exist, as each custodian of an object might not appreciate the value, whether monetary or otherwise. For those who do, the item is revered and for those who don't, it may be sold without proper knowledge of its value or just thrown in the trash.
With prices of fine objects commanding a higher price each day, individuals that have the ability to reproduce collectible objects do so at will. This adds another caveat to the collector as none of us wish to buy anything that is represented as old and yet is new. Experience in your selected field of collecting certainly does help and, our web site is intended to help by showing the items that are reproductions so that even the novice can determine the real from the fake. With our high-end photos an individual can study the real thing so that he/she won't be deceived by the those that sell the fakes whether on the Internet or in your local shop.
Another very important point to all individuals who choose to use our site. Prices are always based on condition. So, don't look at a price and automatically presume that your item is worth the same. This creates so many problems when an individual that has limited knowledge of antiques, attempts to sell his/her object to a knowledgeable dealer. We are not dealers and do not sell anything on our site, but are certainly aware of the animosity created between a buyer and seller when the seller believes an object is worth thousands when it is worth hundreds. As an example, a #1 Spiderman comic book in the highest graded condition it could possible be, should sell over $20,000, yet one of the owners of the site has one that would fetch only $400, because of missing parts of the front page and soiling of the cover.
So we happily present to you a site that has a database that has the ability to describe every antique and collectible known to mankind in an orderly fashion with cross-references. We have a long way to go to get it all, but we are moving as fast as we can and with your input we can do this faster. Remember, "knowledge is knowing where to find information".
This site is intended to bring all of the fields of antique and collectibles into one tightly knit area such that each category would be essentially a book within itself. Each category, as it gets completed, will have detailed descriptions, three sizes of photos along with prices based on condition. Then, there will be a history, bibliography, internet references, internet auctions, and internet groups and society links which are designed to enhance the knowledge of both the novice, collector and professional.
We hope that you enjoy this site. Over ten years of development time have been placed into the information you are about to see. It has been a big struggle to get here, but it has been worth the effort. If we don't have information about what you are looking for, email us and we will work on helping you find just that tidbit of information you are seeking.

Terry White and the Crimson finished 10-6 last season (Gil Talbot).
- Live Statistics (weather permitting)
- Mobile Device Live Statistics (weather permitting)
- Season Preview (Video)
Story Line
No. 14/15 Harvard opens the 2012 season by hosting Vermont at the Soldiers Field Lacrosse Stadium Saturday afternoon. The Crimson will play seven home games this spring and posted a 10-6 overall record last season. The Catamounts are 0-1 after opening the season with a 10-6 loss at Colgate Feb. 18.
Series History
Harvard boasts an 11-1 edge in the all-time series against Vermont. The teams, which met annually between 1988-1999, have not played since the 1999 season, a 7-6 win for the Crimson on the road. Harvard is enjoying an eight-game win streak against Vermont, dating back to 1992.
Scouting The Crimson
Harvard boasted a 6-2 record at home last season and won 10 games for the first time since 1998. The Crimson also advanced to the Ivy League tournament final for the first time in program history. Harvard went 7-3 in non-conference games and was a perfect 5-0 at home against non-Ivy opponents. The Crimson was 4-0 at the Soldiers Field Lacrosse Stadium in 2012, the first year of competition at the venue.
Harvard returns three of its top four scorers from last season: Jeff Cohen (31-2-33), Kevin Vaughan (19-8-27) and Daniel Eipp (16-8-24). In net, Harry Krieger is back after starting all 16 games last spring. Krieger boasted a 10-6 record, to go along with 173 saves, a .539 save percentage and a 9.38 goals-against average.
Daniel DiMaria paced the Crimson with 56 ground balls last season, while Gabriel Mendola won 75-of-128 faceoff attempts (.586). Harvard outscored teams, 174-151, and enjoyed an advantage in faceoff victories, 204-178.
Scouting the Catamounts
Vermont fell on the road at No. 19 Colgate by a score of 10-6 Feb. 18. The Catamounts were outshot, 47-23, and Colgate won 16-of-20 faceoffs. Dan Gutberlet led the Catamounts with two points (1-1-2), as six different players found the back of the net.
Goalie David Barton recorded 13 saves in a losing effort. Barton, Andrew Muscara and Michael Connors each collected three ground balls.
On The Sideline
Chris Wojcik '96, the Frisbie Family Head Coach for Harvard Men's Lacrosse, returns for his second season with the Crimson. He guided the team to a 3-3 Ivy record, as well as a 10-6 overall mark in his first year at the helm.
Senior Leadership
Harvard will have three senior captains this season: Kevin Vaughan, Paul Pate and Terry White. Vaughan also served as a co-captain during his junior year last spring.
Moving On Up
Entering his senior season, Jeff Cohen ranks tied for 10th in the Harvard record books with 94 career goals. Cohen needs two more scores to tie Grady Watts '62 for ninth with 96 tallies. Cohen has amassed 111 points in his career (94-17-111).
Crimson in MLL Draft
Last month, Kevin Vaughan and Daniel DiMaria were selected in the 2012 Major League Lacrosse Collegiate Draft. Vaughan was chosen in the second round with the 14th overall pick by the Denver Outlaws, while DiMaria was taken in the sixth round with the 41st overall pick by the Charltte Hounds.

About APAC
The Academic Professional Advisory Committee (APAC) established by University Statutes, serves in an advisory role to the chancellor and provides representation of academic professionals in governance.
The functions of APAC are:
- to provide for the orderly voicing of suggestions for the good of the University;
- to furnish a channel for direct and concerted communication with administrative officers of the University and its various units;
- to facilitate the professional development of academic professionals; and
- to afford added recourse for the consideration of grievances.
APAC is composed of 10 elected members plus appointed representatives from the chancellor, provost, campus Human Resources Office, and Staff Advisory Council, for a total of 14. Members are chosen in an annual spring election from among all UIS academic professionals employed at least half-time.
University administration staff are members of the electorate of the campus at which their principal office is located. Five members are elected at-large and five from districts representing the major divisions of the campus. Members serve staggered three-year terms. Officers are elected each spring and include a representative to the Campus Senate. APAC holds regular monthly meetings and plays an active role in administrative and governance processes on campus.
Committee bylaws cover such matters as nomination and election of members and officers, size of the committee, and terms of office, and are developed on each campus. After approval by the campus chancellor, the bylaws are made available to the members of the electorate.
The committee advises the chancellor on matters affecting academic professional staff and reports to the chancellor and the academic professional staff at least once a year.
UIS also participates in the University Professional Personnel Advisory Committee and has the same number of voting representatives as the other two campuses.
