Undescended testicle occurs when one or both testicles fail to move into the scrotum before birth.
Cryptorchidism; Empty scrotum - undescended testes; Scrotum - empty (undescended testes); Monorchism; Vanished testes - undescended; Retractile testes
Most of the time, a boy's testicles descend by the time he is 9 months old. Undescended testicles are fairly common in infants who are born early. The problem occurs less often in full-term infants.
Some babies have a condition called retractile testes and the health care provider may not be able find the testicles. In this case, the testicle is normal but is pulled back out of the scrotum by a muscle reflex. This is able to occur because the testicles are still small before puberty. The testicles will descend normally at puberty and surgery is not needed.
Testicles that do not naturally descend into the scrotum are considered abnormal. An undescended testicle is more likely to develop cancer, even if it is brought into the scrotum with surgery. Cancer is also more likely in the other testicle.
Bringing the testicle into the scrotum can improve sperm production and increase the chances of good fertility. It also allows the health care provider to do an exam for the early detection of cancer.
In other cases, no testicle may be found, even during surgery. This may be due to a problem that occurred while the baby was still developing before birth.
Most of the time there are no symptoms other than the absence of the testicle in the scrotum. (This is called an empty scrotum.)
An exam by the health care provider confirms that one or both of the testicles are not in the scrotum.
The health care provider may or may not be able to feel the undescended testicle in the abdominal wall above the scrotum.
Imaging tests, such as an ultrasound or CT scan, may be done.
In most cases, the testicle will descend without treatment during the child's first year. If this does not occur, treatment may include:
Having surgery early may prevent damage to the testicles that can cause infertility. An undescended testicle that is found later in life may need to be removed. This is because the testicle is not likely to function well and could pose a risk for cancer.
The problem goes away without treatment most of the time. Medicine or surgery to correct the condition is successful in most cases.
In about 5% of patients with undescended testicles, the testicles cannot be found at the time of surgery. This is called a vanished or absent testis.
Call your child's health care provider if he appears to have an undescended testicle.

China Marketing Blog
In November Alibaba held its annual shopping festival. Singles Day or Double 11 as it's known in China is now the online shopping event of the year beating America's Cyber Monday into a distant second.
As of September 2014 Tencent reported that monthly active users (MAU) of WeChat now stands at 468 million. The figures for Q3 show an increase of 39% YoY.
Don't have a business in China? Wondering what your limitations are? Wondering if it's worth it to setup a business entity in China?
These are very common questions for small and mid-sized companies looking to crack the Chinese market, but it can be tough to get the correct information.
Here's the quickest overview I can provide:
Have you ever looked at a Chinese website before? If not take a look at sina.com.cn. It's a popular infotainment website used by Chinese communities all over the world.
It covers news, entertainment, games, blogs and microblogging and features a QR code. How would you describe the design of this website?
There is a lot of misinformation on the web about hosting a website in China. Information about Chinese hosting by 'experts' based in countries outside of China seems to be the norm.
Common misinformation I read includes things like:
Applying for an ICP license is important for any foreign company that wants to establish a China-based website to build its business or do e-commerce in China.
Singles Day is the biggest shopping day in China. It is even bigger than America's huge online discount shopping fest Cyber Monday. But what do marketers need to know about Singles Day in China?
One of the most common queries we get at Nanjing Marketing Group concerns Baidu Search Engine Optimization. It seems that there are plenty of Western marketers out there that want to understand how to optimize for Baidu.
China has a unique online television (OTV) content ecosystem unlike any other market in the world. Nearly all branded content (both foreign and domestic) is available online through multiple OTV platforms, such as Youku Tudou, iQiyi, Sohu, and Tencent.

She woke up and yelled for her friend to find out why she was tied up. Her friend laughed and called her partiers in the room. They all thought Maria would be fun to play with! They started out with fingers and toys that they had brought with them. Maria thought these girls were really wild for lesbians but, she decided to enjoy it. She soon found out that they were really shemale friends that worked in the mall. She was quite shocked upon learning this but then she got into it and they all had a good time with her. She enjoyed the cock and tits to play with and said it was a fun time. Before she left for home, she asked when they could do it again!
One night while surfing the web, I came across this little Asian babe. She is a lovely gal, but as I was watching her she looked like she was familiar to me. She is a real wild one, a hot cock riding babe! I finally did remember her. She was a model for a while, and then she went on to the web sex business from the lingerie shop here. I guess one of the guys in the bar had some open spots and she got one and has been on the web ever since!

That's all for today. Thanks everyone for following the blog and we hope to welcome you back tomorrow, from 9.30am.
Here's the wrap of today's session.
The dollar has shaken off weak economic data again, with the Aussie rising to $US1.0560, from $US1.0535 early, and near Friday's four-month peak of $US1.0598. It also hit a four-year peak of 94.54 yen.
The Aussie has shown a remarkable resilience to a flow of weak domestic data including a fall in housing finance and another slide in job ads. Last week, figures showed soft retail sales and a widening trade deficit.
Supporting the local currency is ongoing strength in commodity prices and an improving Chinese economy.
The Aussie fared worse against the euro, which soared to $1.2709, the highest since January 2 and around four cents above Thursday's trough.
The single currency has been on a tear since European Central Bank chief Mario Draghi last week gave no indication the bank would ease monetary policy any further.
Meanwhile, Chinese sharemarkets are going through the roof, after the head of the financial regulator flagged that the amount foreigners can invest in Chinese securities may be increased:
- Shanghai Composite: +2.6%
- Shenzhen Comnposite: +3.1%
Guo Shuqing, Chairman of China Securities Regulatory Commission, said China can raise 10 times the level of quotas for the so-called QFII and RQFII programs, according to Bloomberg.
''Guo's comments are very significant as it shows the government is trying to get bullish on stocks and it's a policy signal as well,'' said Hao Hong, Hong Kong-based managing director of research at Bank of Communications Co.
Regulators have since 2003 approved a combined QFII quota of $US36.04 billion as of November 30 under the program which allows foreign investors to buy yuan-denominated securities. The government scrapped a ceiling on investments by overseas sovereign wealth funds and central banks in its capital markets last month, part of government efforts to encourage long-term foreign ownership and shore up slumping equities.
China has started preparations for a trial program that would allow individuals to invest in overseas capital markets as the nation seeks a greater role for its currency in global finance.
Oil and gas producer Woodside Petroleum has shut the Vincent oilfield offshore Western Australia for scheduled maintenance that which will run for five months, trade sources have told Reuters.
The field's floating production and storage offloading (FPSO) Ngujima-Yin will be heading to a shipyard in Singapore very soon, one source said.
Oil production at the Vincent field, located about 50 km north-west of Exmouth, in Western Australia, was about 46,000 barrels per day (bpd) at the end of the second quarter last year, Woodside said on its website.
Virgin Australia has experienced minor teething problems on its first day of a new booking and reservations system but the airline insists the transition has been relatively smooth.
The airline's head of corporate affairs, Danielle Keighery, said there had been some delays of up to 40 minutes at Sydney Airport but on a network-wide basis the switch to Sabre's global distribution system had ''gone reasonably well''.
''Even this morning during peak hours the queues were not particularly long ... when you consider this is the first time [the system has been operated] in a live environment,'' she said. ''Whilst we have had some delays across the network, they have been minimal. We haven't had to cancel flights.''
"Overall there seems to be a fairly solid level of confidence as we move through January that the recent gains in our market can be sustained," says Mike Kendall, executive director of JBWere.
"That's giving investors confidence as they see deposit rates continue to deteriorate to maybe put a little bit more money back into the equity market.
"That certainly underpinned the recent rise and is holding things at the moment, there doesn't appear to be an about face."
Materials ended 0.1 per cent higher, financials and energy bot added 0.3 per cent, while IT was the only sector to post a loss, slipping 0.2 per cent.
The sharemarket has closed higher, with small gains in most sectors. The benchmark S&P/ASX200 index added 10.2 points, or 0.2 per cent, to 4719.7, while the broader All Ords gained 11.9 points, or 0.3 per cent, to 4745.7.
India-owned Sembawang Australia has given Macmahon until tomorrow to accept its $25 million takeover offer that rivals an agreement with Leighton.
Macmahon is looking to become a dedicated full service mining contractor, and in December struck a $20 million deal with its biggest shareholder Leighton to sell its construction projects, including equipment and staff, with the exception of some assets and its rail business.
But Sembawang has since made a two-part rival offer to the Leighton agreement. The first offer - to buy all of Macmahon's construction businesses - lapsed over the weekend. But the second offer - to replicate the deal with Leighton but for an additional $5 million - remains in play.
Speculation of higher iron ore prices pushing the budget into surplus is heating up.
Achieving a 2012-13 budget surplus is "certainly possible", after forecasters from Deutsche Bank forecast the price would climb to almost double the September mark within weeks, says Labor backbencher Andrew Leigh, a former economist.
Treasurer Wayne Swan said last month a surplus was unlikely - but that was before iron ore prices took off, to around $US155 a tonne.
A spokesman for acting treasurer Penny Wong appeared to agree.
"People should be cautious about putting all their faith in numbers that are based on a day's, week's or month's spot prices for our resources," the spokesman said.
"It's no secret that our budget revenues have already taken a big hit from the impact of continued global instability, commodity price volatility and a high dollar."
Meanwhile, spot Gold has edged up 0.1 per cent to $US1664.04 an ounce after a sharp correction in the previous session, buoyed by a stronger euro and physical buying from China, while expectations of aggressive monetary easing in Japan also lent support.
But moves in the currency market have done little to change the sluggish mood in the gold market, with analysts expecting bullion to range between $US1660 and $US1680 an ounce until investors get a better clue to the health of the global economy and the direction of central banks' monetary policies.
Buying from China helped support sentiment.
"We see a fair amount of buying from China after gold prices fell last Friday, and the yuan hit a record high (against the dollar), making local prices cheap," says Peter Tse, director at ScotiaMocatta. "Having said that, gold is still rangebound and I wouldn't put too much on this morning's rise until liquidity returns when the European market returns."
Brent crude oil has risen to near $US111 a barrel as fears of disruption of supply from the Middle East resurface amid growing optimism for a revival in demand growth as the world's biggest economies show signs of steady recovery.
A plunge in oil exports from Iraq due to bad weather, a bomb attack on the convoy of its finance minister, escalating attacks in Syria and an exercise by Iran's navy in the strategic Strait of Hormuz have all revived supply fears. That has helped the market recoup some of the previous session's losses due to large shipments of European gasoline to the United States.
Front-month Brent gained 34 cents to $US110.98 a barrel in afternoon trade, while US oil rose 58 cents to $US94.14.
"If there is any supply side concern in the Middle East, it will reflect in the risk premium and support prices," said Ben Le Brun, market analyst at OptionsXpress. "Those concerns are offsetting the losses we saw in oil on Friday because of a fall in gasoline prices."
Treasurer Wayne Swan says RBA governor Glenn Stevens has the support of the Prime Minister and the country, while stopping short of saying the federal government will reappoint him this year to another term.
''He's done a superb job. He certainly has the strong confidence not only of the Australian government but I believe broadly across the Australian people,'' Swan said today in Hong Kong. ''His term's still got a little way to run, so I'm not going to speculate about that.''

Seven West Media shares are down just 2 per cent now, regaining some ground after this morning's sharp fall. The shares dropped as much as 7.8 per cent in morning trade, baffling investors.
The Shanghai Composite is rallying today, up more than 2 per cent, which could be good news for the big Australian miners:
Given correlation b/w the #shcomp & #ironore of late, expect to see a higher spot price tomorrow given the +2.06% surge in equities #ausbiz
— David Scutt (@David_Scutt) January 14, 2013
The Shanghai measure dropped 1.5 per cent last week after a government report showing inflation accelerated more than forecast last month, limiting room for monetary easing to support an economic recovery.
Still, the index has risen 15 per cent from an almost four-year low on December 3
The Australian Workers Union is questioning the $100 million in government assistance given to BlueScope, after the steelmaker shed another 170 jobs at its Victorian plant.
About 110 employees at BlueScope's Western Port mill at Hastings, southeast of Melbourne, will lose their jobs in the coming months, along with about 60 contractors. Production at the mill is being scaled down from mid-March to provide significant cost savings, BlueScope Australia and New Zealand chief executive Mark Vassella said.
BlueScope received $100 million in federal government assistance in 2011 as part of Canberra's $300 million steel transformation plan to help steel producers cope with the effects of the carbon tax.
A lot has been made of the higher Australian dollar and the adverse impact on domestic exporters, said CBA economist Savanth Sebastian.
"However the same impact does not seem to be playing out when it comes to the tourism sector. In fact despite the high Aussie dollar, a record number of tourists are coming to Australia, with much of the growth from China and other Asian countries," Mr Sebastian said.
The number of people coming to Australia for holidays or business rose by 0.8 per cent in November to record highs. Arrivals are up 5.9 per cent on a year ago.
"And more importantly an ongoing improvement in the global economy will continue to be of benefit to the tourism sector. A growing tourism sector acts to diversify income flows to the country away from resources and rural exports," he said.
ANZ head of global markets research Richard Yetsenga said the US dollar was in a bit of a sour spot.
"The US trade deficit has begun to deteriorate in a normal cyclical response to a US economic recovery," he said.
"With foreigners having already bought Treasuries in record amounts in recent years…and US monetary policy likely to stay easy, the US dollar is likely to stay weak," Mr Yetsenga said.
An independent report on James Packer's proposed $1 billion Barangaroo development will be made public once it's been assessed, the NSW government says.
The Greens have accused NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell of hiding the document from the public while ''rolling out the red carpet'' to Mr Packer for his planned resort hotel.
Cabinet commissioned the report by consultant Deloitte into Mr Packer's Crown Limited proposal, including whether a casino is necessary for its financial viability.
The report was completed last year but is yet to be released.
Japan's market is closed today but here's how the rest of the region is doing:
- Hong Kong: +0.6%
- Shanghai: +0.5%
- Taiwan: -0.7%
- South Korea: +0.2%
- Singapore: -0.6%
- New Zealand: +0.55%
The competition regulator will push ahead with a review of Commonwealth Bank's move to majority ownership of Aussie Home Loans, raising questions whether the mortgage broker will remain competitive under the control of the nation's biggest bank.
As part of the review, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission will also examine Aussie and CBA's role in mortgage distribution services, including how they provide mortgage brokers with access to a panel of lenders, and issues around technology and administrative support.
The ACCC has also flagged CBA's Finconnect business, which distributes mortgages through professional firms such as accounts and lawyers, as one potential stumbling block of the deal given the extent of cross-over in mortgage broking.
CBA last month outlined a plan to increase its holding in Aussie Home Loans to 80 per cent. The banking major already owns a third of Aussie Home Loans. The sale was for an undisclosed amount, but BusinessDay believes the deal cost CBA in excess of $160 million.
The euro is on a bit of a roll, toying with the mark of $US1.34, its highest since late February. Against the yen, it's buying 119.84, its highest in 20 months.
The Aussie is also feeling the euro's resurgence, falling to 78.71 euro cents, the highest in only two weeks.
The commonn currency was boosted last week by ECB chief Mario Draghi giving no indication of further monetary easing in the eurozone and has been rallying since.
The start of a week of increased American stock market influence and the beginning of labour force week – yet another chance for the tipsters to be wrong. Michael Pascoe reports.
The Aussie dollar has recovered some of today's early losses following a bout of weak domestic data. The Australian dollar reached its intraday low of $US1.0522 at 11.39am, down from $US1.0540 US cents shortly before 11.30am AEDT.
''It does appear as though, regardless of what other major currencies may be doing, the Aussie is the one under the most pressure, apart from the Japanese yen,'' Easy Forex currency dealer Anthony Botros said.
Mr Botros said the Australian dollar had also lost ground against the euro, as the European currency firmed in response to better news from the region and upbeat commentary from the European Central Bank last week.
The local unit has since recovered those losses, recently buying $US1.0546.
George Tharenou at UBS has weighed in on the housing data from earlier today. He says despite the monthly dip, the trend remains positive:
Overall, while home loans fell month on month, the uptrend is still intact (+10% since Mar), showing rate cuts gaining some traction in the domestic economy. Disappointingly, construction retraced sharply after jumping last month – now suggesting only a moderate improvement to a level consistent with the recent trend in residential building approvals.
Looking again at the housing numbers, Westpac senior economist Andrew Hanlan said the figures had been distorted by a 17 per cent fall in loans to first home buyers, driven by changes to state-based incentive schemes.
He said changes to first home owner grants in New South Wales, which came into effect from October 2012, had a particularly strong impact on the numbers.
''What we saw in November was a particularly sharp reversal in the first home buyers market,'' he said.
''But we certainly expect to see home buyers responding to the improved housing affordability, once we move through this period of volatility.''
Mr Hanlan said the figures showed lower interest rates were luring investors back into the market.He said home loans to investors were up 12 per cent over the past three months.
Lonsec analyst Michael Heffernan said today's data showed a sluggish Australian economy, with housing finance numbers for November showing home loans approvals fell 0.5 per cent to 46,199.
''As I can see it confirms the other material we've been getting: retail sales and building approvals figures came out that were pretty flat,'' he said.
''Overall the situation is pretty slack economically which means there is a good chance of interest rates cuts coming up.
''This week there will be a whole host of economic data coming out here and in the US, which are going to be very important triggers for how the market is going, there is certainly momentum with us at the moment.''
Altona Mining is considering selling its Roseby copper project or seeking a merger among a range of options after Xstrata decided not to buy into the copper project in Queensland state, its chief says.
"We are starting a process essentially to look at a strategic transaction, meaning is there a party who then takes equity in the project and helps finance, potentially also considering selling the entire project," Altona managing director Alistair Cowden told Reuters.
"Everything's always for sale," he said, adding that the company would consider merging with another company with a stronger balance sheet for the project.
Like in the past week, the ASX can't seem to sustain its early bullishness. The index has all but lost its gains, as losses in the big miners weigh and the banks trade mixed:
- Rio: -0.75%
- Westpac: -0.85%
And to recap, here's today's economic data. We'll have a wrap up later this afternoon, focusing on what this means for the economy and the RBA's rates decisions.
- ANZ job ads drop for tenth month
- Benign inflation leaves room for rate cut
- Surprise fall in home loan approvals
A tweet by ANZ chief economist Warren Hogan on the soft job ads figures:
ANZJobAds have fallen at a 40%saar pace in the past 4mths. This is recession like although there is no sign (as yet) of this in the u-rate.
— Warren Hogan(@anz_warrenhogan) January 14, 2013
AJ Lucas shares have surged after confirming reports its British subsidiary Cuadrilla is holding preliminary talks with major investors, as the United Kingdom seeks to replicate the shale gas revolution underway in the United States.
Shares in the mining contractor – which owns a 42 per cent stake in Cuadrilla – spiked as much as 12 per cent on this morning.
British multinational Centrica has been named as a potential suitor in the British financial press, but Lucas has declined to comment.
The potential financial backing of a multinational is seen as a major step to support Cuadrilla's efforts to exploit what is believed to be Britain's largest untapped shale gas reserve.
The Aussie dollar is lower today, falling on the release of the home loan approvals (see post at 11.37am) and ANZ job ads data at 11.30am. The Aussie slipped from $US1.0542 in the moments before the release to a fresh intraday low of $US1.0524, suggesting traders were betting the numbers raised the chances of further rate cuts.
Inflation data out ealier today showed price pressures remained benign in December, suggesting there is still scope to cut interest rates further if needed to support the economy.
More economics data.
The number of home loans approved in November fell 0.5 per cent to 46,199, official figures show. That was from an downwardly revised 46,448 in October.
Economists had expected housing finance commitments to rise 0.5 per cent in November. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) said today that total housing finance by value fell 0.8 per cent in November, seasonally adjusted, to $21.464 billion.
Job advertisements have fallen for the tenth-straight month on the back of challenging conditions for Australian businesses, an ANZ month survey says.
The ANZ survey, which was released this morning, showed that job advertisements dropped by 3.8 per cent in December, after a 2.8 per cent decline in November.
"Job advertising is a key barometer of economic activity and business confidence. Its ongoing weakness suggests that conditions for a large share of Australian businesses remain challenging and the outlook uncertain," ANZ's head of Australian economics, Justin Fabo, said in a statement.
Mr Fabo said the unemployment rate was expected to rise to about 5¾ per cent from the current level of 5.2 per cent by mid to end 2013 without a pick-up in non-mining sectors as mining investment falls this year.

More on iron ore, but this time on the political implications of the price rise. The recent surge in the price of the bulk commodity could see the federal budget deliver a surplus after all, says a Labor MP.
Labor backbencher Andrew Leigh, an economist, says lower commodity prices and an unusually high Australian dollar has knocked $20 billion off the government's projected revenues in the past year. But achieving a surplus was ''certainly possible''.
''The treasurer last year didn't rule out a surplus, just said that one was looking unlikely given what's happened to revenues,'' he told Sky News.
Dr Leigh said if the Gillard government enjoyed the same tax-to-gross domestic product (GDP) ratio as the Howard government it would easily achieve a surplus this year.
A closer look now at iron ore prices, which have surged over the last month and a half, helping the commodity shake off a low of $US86.70 a metric tonne in May of 2012.
The bulk commodity began December trading at $US115.30, hitting a 2013 peak of $US158.50 on Tuesday last week. It has dipped slightly to $US154.90.
Despite the slight drop, Deutsche Bank economist Phil Odonaghoe said iron ore maintained a positive outlook for the first quarter of 2013. On average of the past five years, the iron ore price has increased by 15 per cent in the first quarter.
Deutche Bank commodity analysts expect the iron ore price to reach $US170 in the coming weeks.
However they also noted that the 18 per cent rise in iron ore, since July 1 2012, has not been matched by jumps in coking coal or Chinese steel prices, 28 per cent and 7 per cent lower than July 1 respectively.
"This would suggest gains in iron ore are more related to temporary factors in the market and not a function of a widespread increase in Chinese activity," said Mr Odonaghoe.
Here's a Bloomberg chart showing the price movements since the start of December:
IG Markets market analyst Evan Lucas said he expected a day of steady trading on the Australian market after disappointing US trade figures released on the weekend showed the world's largest economy's trade deficit had expanded to $US48.7 billion ($A46.40 billion).
''As we are one of the first markets to digest the US trade figures, a steady day is expected as we look to bigger leads from the US and Europe overnight before moving another leg up,'' he said.
Economists at CBA have come up with a list of ''X-factors'' which could have a big influence on the economy or investment markets in 2013.
A note this morning from CBA's Michael Blythe quotes Australian economist Dr Don Stammer who defines an X-factor as "the big influence that had not been generally predicted or allowed for but which turns up and has a marked effect on the economy or investment markets".
It sounds to this blogger similar to author Nassim Nicholas Taleb's 'black swan theory': the disproportionate influence of events which are hard to predict and have large consequences.
CBA economists have worked up a list of possible X-factors in 2013:
- The RBA raises rates in 2013
- The "old" consumer returns
- A sharp lift in house prices
- The oft forecast crash in house prices finally happens
- Australia loses its AAA rating
- A spike in global food prices and global oil prices
- An end to food‑based biofuels
- Greece finally leaves the Eurozone
- Unemployment falls rather than rises
- Commodity prices return to 2011 highs
- Mining capex doesn't peak
- A natural disaster
- The US LNG boom
- The global economy disappoints
- The RBNZ cuts interest rates
- Climate change becomes a baseline assumption
- Stimulus policy works in Japan
- A replay of 1994
- The US Treasury pursues "unconventional" policy measures
Dear reader - anything you'd like to add to the list?
The first piece of economics news is out for today, and it shows that consumer prices are rising in line with the RBA's target for inflation, a report says.
The TD Securities-Melbourne Institute inflation gauge rose 0.4 per cent in December, after prices fell 0.1 per cent in November, the survey published on Monday showed.
In the year to December, the gauge rose 2.4 per cent, in line with the previous month's reading and within the RBA's target band for inflation of between two and three per cent on average over time.
TD Securities head of Asia-Pacific research Annette Beacher said the RBA's February meeting was likely to be a ''lively one'' as the outlook and risks for 2013 were discussed.
''On balance, we are of the view that the cash rate should remain at the already record low of three per cent,'' Ms Beacher said.
BlueScope shares are down but not drastically in early trade after the steelmaker announced another round of job cuts at its Western Port facility. Full story here. Its shares are 0.5 per cent lower, or 2 cents, to $3.68.
A quick look at the best performed companies on the ASX200:
- Bathurst Resources: +5.19%
- Northern Star ResourcesZ: +5.08%
- Aquila: +3.90%
- Mesoblast: +3.31%
- St Barbara: +3.25%
- Alumina: +2.75%
The retailers have started the week in a positive mood:
- Ten: +3.23%
- JB Hi-Fi: +2.54%
- Aristocrat Leisure: +2.11%
- Pacific Brands: +1.72%
- Navitas: +1.65%
- Myer: +1.33%
All sectors higher in early trade:
- Utilities: +0.96%
- Consumer disc.: +0.83%
- Financials: +0.59%
- Info tech: +0.53%
- Telecoms: +0.44%
- Industruials: +0.41%
Interestingly, the miners are flat after the iron ore price slipped on Friday. It lost 2.09 per cent to $US154.90 a metric tonne after hitting $US158.50 on Wednesday. More on this shortly.
Local stocks have started the week in a buoyant mood, adding more than 0.3 per cent in opening trade.
In early trade, the All Ordinaries index is 16.1 points higher, or 0.3 per cent, to 4749.9, while the benchmark S&P/ASX200 is 16.7 points higher, or 0.4 per cent, to 4726.2.
While we're on the subject of the US, US stocks closed in mixed territory on Friday as tepid earnings from Wells Fargo kept markets restrained. The results came as Wells Fargo became the first major bank to report financial results in the current earnings season. Although Wells bested expectations, news of slimming profit margins drove shares down 0.9 per cent to $US35.10.
As well as locally, the data flow intensifies in the US this week, kicking offf tonight with a speech by Federal reserve boss Ben Bernanke. Here's a quick outline of the data we're expecting this week:
- Monday: US Fed boss Ben Bernanke speaks
- Tuesday: US retail sales for December, producer price index for December
- Wednesday: Consumer price index for December, industrial production for December, Fed Beige Book
- Thursday: Housing starts for December, jobless claims
A quick look ahead to the day's economic data. It's going to be a busy morning:
- TD Securities inflation gauge for December - 10.30am
- RBA credit card purchases and balances for November - 11.30am
- ABS home loans and investment lending for November - 11.30am
- ANZ job ads for December - 11.30am
The major economics news this week arrives on Thursday when the ABS releases labour force data for December, which is expected to show the unemployment rate has risen to 5.4 per cent from 5.2 per cent. More on that as the week progresses. Today's ANZ numbers may offer an insight into the direction of Thursday's jobs result.
In major corporate news this morning, BlueScope Steel has announced it will sack about 170 workers within months as it reconfigures a Victorian steel production plant.
About 110 employees and 60 contractors from a workforce of 740 were expected to lose their jobs at the Western Port facility at Hastings, south east of Melbourne, over the next few months.
BlueScope chief executive Mark Vassella said the decision was part of the steelmaker's "intention to reconfigure its Australian cold rolling, metal coated and painted steel production".
For a comprehensive look at this morning's business news, check today's need2know. Meantime, here are this morning's key markets numbers:
- SPI futures contract was 8 points higher to 4689
- Dollar slides on China inflation numbers
- US investors cautious amid earnings season
- European stocks tread water
- Gold slides as investors selloff
- Oil prices fall on oversupply expectations
- Australian business news: January 14-18
Hi everyone and welcome to 2013! We trust you had a relaxing and safe Christmas and new year.
We're back a bit earlier than we expected. It's going to be a solid week for economics news, starting off with no fewer than four releases today. More on those shortly.

Biography of Helene Kröller-Müller
From September 2006, art historian Eva Rovers did her doctoral research in preparation of a biography of Helene Kröller-Müller. The Institute of Biography of the University of Groningen commissioned the project and the Kröller-Müller Museum and National Park De Hoge Veluwe are providing the financial backing. On November 18th 2010, the long awaited biography of Helene Kröller-Müller has been published; reason for the exhibition Helene's men in which an intimate and personal insight is given into this intelligent, ambitious and energetic woman, who, with her collection, laid the foundations for the museum that bears her name. The exhibition is on show from November 19th, 2010 until February 27th, 2011.
Information about the biography
The research
Researcher and biographer Eva Rovers on Helene Kröller-Müller:
"In the winter of 2005, the Kröller-Müller museum received a chest full of personal documents that belonged to Helene Kröller-Müller from the heirs of Sam van Deventer. They were mostly letters sent by Helene to her confidant Van Deventer. The thousands of pages of letters are a treat for any biographer and provide a wonderful picture of Helene Kröller-Müller's everyday life whilst at the same time revealing how extraordinary that life was. The most precious document in the chest was probably the little green book filled with unintelligible handwriting. It turned out to be the diary kept by Helene in Düsseldorf during the period 1882-1885, from her thirteenth to her sixteenth year. As a biographer, you seldom feel more of a voyeur than when you're reading the protagonist's childhood diary. A diary is by definition disarming because it is not written with a rhetorical purpose. It is a window into a teenager's soul with all the characteristic unrest and doubt and without the knowledge of what life will bring. Knowledge that the biographer does have at the moment of reading.
Helene Müller's diary did not reveal the secrets of its writer just like that; the biographer had to put some effort into the matter first – and rightly so. The Gothic 'Kurrentschrift' handwriting that Helene learned at school was replaced around 1915 and there are only a handful of Germans still alive who can read it. One of these was a friendly archivist from Essen who was prepared to translate a page of the diary. With this page as a key I set about deciphering the diary. First I did so letter for letter, then word for word and eventually the story itself took over and it was no longer a matter of deciphering but of reading and identifying with the writer.
Helene's diary is a typical example of a 'coming of age' story. At the age of thirteen, Helene was a carefree child. In a highly enthusiastic manner, she writes about her French teacher Fräulein Rogge for whom she was 'bis über die Ohren verliebt' and about Gerresheim, a village outside Düsseldorf where her father had bought a villa with a lovely garden.[1]. When Helene was fourteen though, she had to bid farewell to her sister Martha, who was moving to boarding school in Aken. She also noticed that she was different than the rest of her classmates who considered her serious behaviour as rather 'amusing', something she couldn't really hold against them. Furthermore, young Helene would have liked to continue learning but she knew that her parents would not consent to this.
Her love for literature led to serious religious doubts. Helene devoured the works of Goethe and Lessing. Their liberal religious ideas made her start to doubt the infallibility of the Bible. Both writers rejected the dogmatic character of institutionalised religion and opposed a literal interpretation of the Bible. Fifteen-year old Helene adopted these critical viewpoints which led to her refusal to receive Confirmation, marking the beginning of a lengthy confrontation with her parents.
By the time she did eventually succumb to her parents' pressure and agree to be confirmed, the open-minded girl had developed into a serious young woman resigned to accept her fate. She was jealous of her brother Gustav who, at the age of twenty, had his whole life ahead of him and held his fate in his own hands. Helene regarded herself, on the other hand, as constrained and anything but free to do as she pleased. She had no choice but to submit herself to the will and conventions of others, 'so herzlos & falsch sie auch sind'. Resignedly, she reconciled herself to the wishes of her parents and after her confirmation left home to go to a boarding school in Brussels. She knew only too well that upon her return she would be grown up and the big wait for a husband would begin. It was the prospect of that 'ewige Nichtsthun' which made her feel particularly dejected.
As it turned out, it was that very husband who would give her the space to develop herself further and offer her more 'Lebensraum' than sixteen year-old Helene could have dared to hope. Sometimes I felt the urge to say this to the diary".

"Envy aims very high." –Ovid
(Most of this information was copy-pasted from the post in the Idea Thread. New information is in the Estimated Schedule, Players, and IMPORTANT REMINDER sections located at the bottom.)
Short version: A group of random people from various walks of life are invited to a Halloween party by an eccentric billionaire. The host has promised to grant each guest a wish, either through his money or influence, if they manage to stay in a supposedly haunted house for one night. Unbeknownst to most of these guests, at least one murderer walks in their midst. Ooooooohhh, spooky.
Purpose: This game is an attempt to reemphasize the "Game" part of RPG. Rather than simply giving a setting for a few characters to bump around in until the players get bored, Envy has been planned with a short time frame in mind (one in-game night), and a definite win condition (if you survive, you win). Envy is also different in the number of rules I would like to employ. Since the main competition should be between players, and not the players against the GM, these rules are intended to maintain an equal playing field. It is my belief that the rules will make the overall experience more enjoyable, but they are open to some discussion if a significant number of potential players are dissuaded by them. Finally, I intend to maintain a level of mystery concerning some points of this game. This secrecy could easily be misinterpreted as a lack of planning. Hopefully the amount of information I provide here will suggest otherwise.
Location: Broadly, this will take place in a world closely resembling present-day Earth. Most geographical and historical information still applies. However, I would like to refrain from using real people, companies, and brands that currently, or up until recently, exist/existed. Substitutes will be used for important cultural icons. For example, World War Two still would have taken place, but McDonald's would be replaced by another massive, imaginary fast-food chain, like Burger Zone or Patty's or some other stupid thing. These don't have to be all that serious, and should only come up in conversations, so I'll leave it up to players to come up with these replacements whenever they need to mention one in conversation. However, once a substitute person or company is established, it continues to exist for the rest of the game.
The game will take place entirely within the grounds of a historical (fictional) property known as Thorpe Manor. It is a mansion built on North Fox Island, in Lake Michigan. There are usually no ferries that go back and forth to the island, but your host has made arrangements for your transportation. I (will) have a map of Thorpe Manor planned out, including plans for the functions of each room and the locations of various objects within said rooms. However, since no player character will have been in the mansion previously, you will only be provided with details from the sections of the map that your character discovers in-game.
Host: Peter Voland tries to avoid public scrutiny, though it's difficult for a billionaire. He manages it by being boring and reclusive most of the time. However, the man has had his streaks of strange behavior, primarily handing out large sums of money publicly in exchange for the completion of arbitrary tasks. This is the first Halloween party he has held, as far as any of the guests know. Peter is 38, relatively young for his wealth. Most of Voland's fortune is derived from the founding and control of SupraMorph Corporation, which specializes in genetically-engineering fungi or something. Varying levels of additional information will be provided for each player based on how closely his or her character follows current events, scientific publications, and/or business news.
The primary functions of the GM will be monitoring rule compliance and establishing atmosphere. To remain unbiased, the GM will control relatively few characters, and will not try to win. If I do, and nobody else does, at least one of us has done something wrong.
Players: Envy should have a minimum of four players. I would rather not accept votes from people simply wishing to observe. They won't get to see all that much, anyway, since I would like to use PMs heavily. I won't set a maximum number of players. The saying goes "the more, the merrier," plus I don't think I'm popular enough that I will get too many applications to handle. That said, there will be a cut-off date for entry, the date we start the game at the latest. Once we begin, there just won't be any opportunities to introduce new characters.
Secrecy: As mentioned before, I want the players to be in the dark somewhat. There are two reasons for this. First, it is more fair. If everyone is omniscient, even if their characters aren't, they have an incentive, a temptation, to move their characters in the direction that conveniently happens to be the most favorable to their ends. These optimal actions can be often made with some sort of in-character justification, but they can make a game too much a cut-and-dry strategy competition. Second, I think it will be more fun. It's a new experience, at least for me, and it generates suspense.
Therefore, there will be two basic ways to classify actions: public actions and private actions. Public actions will only occur when all characters are in one area, and will be posted in an IC thread. The majority of actions, though, will be private, meaning they have some audience smaller than the total number of (living) characters. All private actions should be sent to the GM, not anyone else, via PM. Characters will only be alerted of others' private actions if they can perceive them, and then only to a limited extent. For example, if a character is a room over from two others, he might hear them having a conversation, but not the words they're saying. He can react by moving closer and trying to eavesdrop if he chooses, but if the others catch him sneaking up, they might stop talking, if the subject is delicate.
As the example above suggests, private actions can either be considered private due to characters simply being far apart (unintentional), or because a character actually don't want to be noticed (intentional). If you want to attempt a stealthy maneuver or whisper something to a confidant with potential witnesses around, mention the target audience in your PM to me.
Collusion: Cooperation amongst characters is expected. However, out-of-character cooperation, such as sharing secret information and carrying out complex strategies that have not been agreed upon in-game, is frowned upon. It would be difficult for me to identify violations of this rule, and I would have only limited available recourse, but the cheapening of your potential victory should be deterrent enough. Also, it may be within the interest of other players to lie to you.
Killers: I refuse to discuss the nature, number, and/or selection process of the antagonists of this game publicly, until the game ends. Player speculation is welcome, though.
Character Sheet: Initially, most of this information will not be public. I might want you to divulge one or two of the fields, just so players know how to describe your character's physical appearance, but most of the details below will not be readily apparent to everyone. If they are revealed through public actions or conversations, they should be added to your public profile.
A Note: Making your character a statistical anomaly or an extreme does not automatically make them interesting.
Name: The person's actual name, including any nicknames or titles.
Gender: Pretty simple field.
Sexuality: I would be surprised if any characters managed to get freaky in the short amount of time, but it may become relevant in other, less graphic interactions.
Age: Not too young, not too old. Please include birthday. For reference, Envy will begin October 31, 2014, at 8:00 PM, in-game time.
Birthplace: I would like the characters to have spent at least a couple recent years in the United States, but you can be from almost anywhere in the world.
Appearance: Height, weight, body stuff. Include things like common tics or expressions.
Costume: Your character was invited to a Halloween party of moderate class. Costumes could be as simple as a suit/dress with a mask, or a little more elaborate.
Stats: See Stats Section for below more information.
Other Skills: Anything your character is specifically proficient in. Include a small explanation of how adept they are at each skill. I do not expect a single character to be an expert in a large number of non-correlated tasks. A couple is reasonable, but we don't need a hang-gliding, kung fu hacker, who also happens to be an Olympian and a doctor.
Degree of Fame: Should be number between 0 (anonymous) and 10 (Oprah- or Jesus-level celebrity). A person that is famous will have more of their information made public initially. If your character is considerably famous, explain why.
Political Affiliation: This should be a simple description (conservative, liberal, etc.) and a number (0 through 10). The number represents how intensely the character holds these convictions. A person with a 0 wouldn't care at all about politics, and a 10 would be a fanatic. I don't expect big political debates between characters, but it is something you should consider for fleshing your character out.
Religious Affiliation: Again, I don't expect this type of aspect to be the focus of your character, but it could potentially add depth. A minimum of one word (Christian, atheist, etc.) and a value (0 still means you don't care, 10 still means you are a fanatic).
Personality: Rather than ask for a written description, I would like you to measure your character's personality using the Five Factor Model. For each factor, rate your character on a scale from 0 to 10. A 0 will represent an extreme on the left side of the "vs." and a 10 will represent an extreme on the right.
Here is a link to the Wikipedia article, which should be sufficient
Openness to Experience: consistent/cautious vs. inventive/curious
Conscientiousness: easy-going/careless vs. efficient/organized
Extraversion: solitary/reserved vs. outgoing/energetic
Agreeableness: cold/unkind vs. friendly/compassionate
Neuroticism: secure/confident vs. sensitive/nervous
Preferences: Likes and obsessions, dislikes and fears. Note that there are some really obvious things that most people like or dislike, so telling me that your character hates genocide is dumb.
Wish(es): Somewhat similar to ambitions or goals. Your character was invited to this event under the pretense that he/she could have a wish granted to you by a wealthy, influential man. What might your character be planning on wishing for? Also, it is important that your character has at least a vague desire in mind, because they would not attend without any motivation.
Background: I don't really need a childhood history, unless you think it would be important in shaping your character. Touch on key points that would impact what the person says or does.
Job(s): Current or most recent employment.
Relationships: Not just romances. Not everyone is a lone wolf. Briefly mention close family, friends, perhaps a significant pet. We will meet none of the people in this section, unless you collaborate with another player so that your characters know each other beforehand.
Notes: Anything you wanted to add, but didn't fit into one of the other categories.
Interest in Being a Killer: This is not the interest of the character, but of the player. If you would like to be the, or one of the, killer(s) in the game, put something like "Interested" or "Yes." I may take this into consideration, or I may ignore it.
Stats Section
You may distribute a total of 35 points per character in the attributes listed below. Values between 1 and 10 may be assigned, though more extreme values seem less likely. The values will then be used to determine your success in actions and challenges that require the use of those attributes. A simple example would be pushing a heavy object, which would only require Strength. A more complex example would be firing a gun, which would take Agility to handle properly and Perception to aim.
Make sure that your distribution makes sense for your background and appearance. Is an Olympian runner going to be slow? Is a detective going to be blind? If you answered both of these questions with "no," then congratulations. You probably have a couple points in Intelligence. By extension, and if this was not clear already, zeroes are not allowed, as they are ridiculous. If you had a zero in Intelligence, you'd be brain-dead. If you had a zero in Agility, you'd be a flailing mass of limbs on the ground.
Strength: How much force you can apply to objects. If you're going to be lifting, pushing, pulling, jumping, or hitting, you're going to need Strength.
Endurance: How long you can sustain a challenging activity without rest, whether it be physical or mental. Whether it's jogging, standing completely still, resisting the effects of a drug, or listening to an annoying person speak, there's some toughness and willpower involved.
Speed: How quickly you can get to a given location, or get away from it. A character's top speed, regular walking speed, and perhaps even arm-swinging speed (for swimming?) would be based in this attribute. Pretty basic, but if you're planning on doing a lot of walking, it could come in handy.
Agility: How potent your balance, hand-eye coordination, and reaction time are. Sneaking requires Agility, as would technical skills like lock-picking, playing the piano, and handwriting.
Perception: How easily you notice sights, sounds, etc. The more points in Perception you have, the more easily little details will stick out for you, perhaps seem out of place. Noticing the right thing in the nick of time might just save your life. Sight, smell, hearing, touch, taste, and perhaps even ESP (admittedly a long-shot) would be based in Perception.
Intelligence: How much information you can mentally store, and already have, concerning a wide range of topics. Intelligence would include knowing facts concerning any number of fields of study, photographic memory, and/or critical thinking skills. I'd say "Knowledge is power," but that's something a nerd would say. Nerd.
Personality: How generally likeable you are, and how easy it is for you to debate, persuade, and flat-out lie. You might not be the strongest person in the room, but with enough Personality you can convince the strong-man (or strong-woman, I'm not one to judge) to do your bidding. Of course, he (she) might be just as charismatic, or could figure out what you're up to.
Estimated Schedule
In order to keep things from going stale, I would like to get the game going relatively soon. Thus, I plan on starting it about one week after the last potential player declares his or her interest in Envy. I am assuming that the players that voted the game in are interested, so unless someone else says they'd like to join, I will start next Tuesday (maybe I'll wait for a weekend). If you think this amount of time is too small to create a character in, or if you will be particularly busy this upcoming week, tell me so, and I'll try to accommodate. I will also be filling out a character sheet, and a few other things, so I'll be able to gauge whether or not this is a reasonable schedule.
Interest Expressed: Belwicket, , Bolts, Villain
CS Submitted, Being Processed:
Accepted: Burn, malaria
Remember to submit your characters privately, via PM! Secrets make things more interesting.

Limited production run of copper-faced MA-2402, MA-3600VZ, and MA-5002VZ
celebrate Crown's history of ingenuity and craftsmanship
ANAHEIM, California – NAMM room #7800 (Harman Pro Group) - January 2008 -- Having recently crossed its 60th year and more than two decades of producing the industry-standard Macro-Tech Series of power amplifiers, Crown International is commemorating both milestones with a special, one-time production run of its MA-2402, MA-3600VZ and MA-5002VZ as "Anniversary Edition" models.
A very limited quantity of these amplifiers will be produced – only 600 in total will be available worldwide – each of which will feature a visually striking copper-plated front panel (including handles, knobs, buttons, etc.) and be shipped in a custom wood crate. The product will also be accompanied by a special brochure chronicling the history of the product from its initial concept through today as well as a specification sheet detailing the actual benchmarked performance of that very amplifier, signed and numbered by Crown Senior VP of Research Gerald Stanley, whose patented technologies and innovative design philosophies ultimately made the Macro-Tech Series a global success.
"Over its 20-plus years, Macro-Tech has long been widely regarded as the touchstone in high-performance pro audio amplifier design," says Brian Divine, Crown Market Director, Engineered Sound/Touring Sound. "In fact, between Macro-Tech and its smaller sibling, Micro-Tech, we've shipped nearly 275,000 units worldwide, which translates to approximately 54 million watts into 4 ohms or 65 million watts into 2 ohms, so there can be no doubt that this is a highly significant product in terms of pro audio's history. With the new Macro-Tech Anniversary Edition versions, we are giving a select few the chance to own a unique piece of that history for themselves."

To whom it may concern, I find that it shows a remarkable lack of foresight to schedule singing in a university library at any point in time.
From: an undergraduate student
Dennis T. Clark, Associate University Librarian for Public Services, replies…
Thanks for your comments. I appreciate your need to use library spaces for quiet study — it is one of our most important offerings. However, as part of our weeks-long exhibit, we wanted to incorporate a live-performance, and tie it into Valentine's Day. Our fabulous musicians from the School of the Arts, Gianna Barone and Denver Walker, gave wonderful performances. In order to keep any distractions at a minimum, we placed the performance in our lobby (our version of Grand Central Station) and scheduled during a lunch hour, when we have the most traffic. We often use that same space for visual and interactive art exhibits, so it seemed like the perfect place for the performing arts.
You'll be happy to know that we don't often have live music in the library — this may be a first. I'm very glad that you are an active library user and encourage your comments on other library events in the future.
