Because +it +is contains +a

Some people are better than me at presenting Google results. I don't have time to compete, so here are the raw results:

From http://www.wikihow.com/wikiHow:Templates/Talk:

Unfortunately, your current username is in violation of the username policy because it is: contains a bad word See our username policy for more information.

From http://www.northland-camping.co.nz/activities.htm:

From http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/12/3/92459/6822:

Please be sure to have a clean pair of cleanex on hand, when reading because it is contains a slew of comedic responses. A Dkos classic.

And finally, from DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVE CRAB CLAW PROCESSING SYSTEMS
TO MINIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
:

The waste stream from this is of particular concern because it is contains a high five day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), ranging from 7,000 to 15,000 mg/L, and a chloride ion concentration of 135,000 to 150,000 mg/L (Harrison, 1993).

This all started with this Python error message:

SyntaxError: import * is not allowed in function 'yevtushenko' because it is contains a nested function with free variables

What other "because it is contains a"'s are out there hiding from Google's prying eyes? Share yours on the comments page.
