Nope, Shannon asks specifically about blog entries:

My sidebar links, as I have told anybody I have requested reciprocal links from, are subject to a major redesign, so I won’t be adding in every KC Irish website before that redesign.

You might remember <I>Eolaí</I> from last year. Coming from the Gaelic word <I>eolas</I>(knowledge) it means 'guide'. The gaelic word <I>gan</I> means 'without'. And the gaelic word <I>Fhéile</I> has more than one meaning. It means feast, as in <I>La Fhéile Padraig</I> - what we call St Patrick's Day, or more correctly the Feast Day of St Patrick. And it means festival. As IrishKC started a week before St Patrick's Day, at a time when I for the first time was not attached to any Festival it seemed, and still does, very appropriate. Back in the days of the Brookside Irish Fest I touted the use of the word <I>Féile</I> as the name for the Festival itself, for branding purposes, but nobody else on the committee agreed. They understandbly felt it would alienate the non-gaelic-speaking midwest, whereas I felt the midwest was already used to gaelic words such as <I>Feis</I> and <I>Fleadh</I>. Let’s pretend you don’t know, and your mother can’t tell you.
