DETROIT - Let's do some important math here and you can say you heard it here first on Local 4.
On Tuesday, in an interview with Local 4 News, Jack Martin, a member of the governor's Detroit financial review team, tipped his hand. He said, "I would say anything other than an emergency manager or bankruptcy. I think, hopefully -- I would vote for a consent decree … I think that is the best outcome for all of us if we can work with the city administration and the state and bring Detroit back to what it was."
In response to that statement and others Martin made, Detroit Mayor Dave Bing told Local 4 News in a phone interview, "Jack just told my story! I have always felt that way … I will not ask for a consent agreement … but I will not fight one either. It leaves our leadership intact and it will allow us to do things you otherwise can't."
Last night, Detroit City Council member Gary Brown reiterated what he has been saying for the last week, that five votes exist on council for a consent agreement.
Last April, Gov. Rick Snyder himself told Local 4 News he thought a consent agreement was the right answer.
Add it all up, and for all intents and purposes, it's simply a matter of time before the city of Detroit gets a consent agreement.
Now, we know the city of which I speak. Nothing is ever this simple in Detroit. There are forces lining up to stop and emergency manager and some on City Council believe a consent decree is a slippery slope to that emergency manager.
There is that pesky temporary restraining order against the governor's financial review team. It prevents the team from meeting in private any more, although the governor's office is working overtime to figure out how to get around that or defeat it in court.
The goal by union organizer Robert Davis, who succeeded in getting that order is clear, he is attempting to get the work the team did in private meetings with City Council and department heads tossed out as tainted goods.
He makes no bones about his desire to undue the entire process. He may or may not succeed on these legal technicalities.
But let's be real here: it is possible for the state of Michigan to figure out where Detroit stands financially without the review team. The treasurer's office already knows the numbers. This is really about the governor taking his characteristic careful steps so as not to offend a lot of people and still get Detroit the financial turn around it so desperately needs.
Of course there will be negotiations on a consent agreement.
These will be as thorny as the current attempt by mayor Bing to get union concessions from the city's unions. [He is currently working with the police officer unions] In his interview with me today financial review team member Jack Martin said the city of Detroit will not run out of money in February or March as some project.
He would know, he's seen the books. But in order for the consent agreement to work, it needs to be in place quickly.
So, at this point, the review team is expected to give the governor its report by the end of February.
The governor will likely pull the trigger on negotiating a consent agreement soon thereafter and then there's that City Council vote.
Never a dull moment in Detroit, but let there be no doubt the turn around effort will begin with a consent agreement.
Whether that's where it ends is a topic for another day.

Thank you for your interest in developing a plug-in for Adobe® Reader®.
To build an Adobe Reader plug-in, you should apply for and obtain an Adobe Reader Integration Key. This key must be compiled into your application in order for it to load in Reader.
By completing the Adobe RIKLA application you initiate the process to obtain a key. The application should be filled out completely and your responses will be used to determine your eligibility. If you are building a DRM-based Adobe Reader plug-in, we recommend you send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com with details of your request so that we can guide you through the application process.
General questions
Applications take about two weeks to review. DRM applications may take longer. Once approved, you will receive the contract (also known as the Adobe Reader Integration Key License Agreement or Adobe RIKLA) as a PDF form along with the link to the tools for generating your Public Key. Adobe uses this Public Key to generate your Adobe Reader Key or "key" which you use in compiling your plugin. Once we receive your approved contract and Public Key, it takes about another week or two for Adobe to generate your Adobe Reader Integration Key, charge your credit card, and e-mail the key to you.
Reader Integration keys are only available to strategic partners based on a negotiated price. If you are developing a digital rights management (DRM) Adobe Reader plug-in, the standard (non-DRM) RIKLA contract does not apply. Adobe does offer a DRM agreement specifically for developers building such Adobe Reader plug-ins. The current fee structure for the DRM RIKLA includes a $50,000 annual fee and a 5.5% revenue royalty.
You may use and distribute the key according to the term of the RIKLA for one year from the date you receive your final contract with Adobe digital signatures. You should reapply a few weeks before this time to extend your current license for another year.
Reader Integration keys are only available to strategic partners.

ONLY six games survived the weather again this weekend and three of them were played at Castle on the 3G artificial pitch.
Somerset Junior Cup The Taunton League still had three sides in the last sixteen of the Somerset Junior Cup, namely Bridgwater Sports, Sampford Blues and Staplegrove Reserves.
Sampford Blues lost out to Shepton Beauchamp 1-4, after Shepton had taken a two goal lead by the interval.
But substitute Ross Lawrence got one back after the re-start which gave them hope and they pushed forward for the equaliser but spurned some good chances.
A Shepton penalty made it 1-3 before a scorching long range effort made it four.
Staplegrove Reserves were 4-1 winners over Bristol side AFC Hartcliffe.
Grove took the lead on 25 minutes with a goal from Luke Webber as he coolly slotted past the 'keeper whyen put through.
Two minutes later Grove doubled their lead when Adam Smith took a long throw into the six yard box, skipper Chris Hadley drew the keeper and then headed square across goal to Scott Reynolds who was left an easy task to head home, for Grove to take a two goal lead into the break.
Hartcliffe stepped up the physical side of their game in the second half and got one back twelve minutes into the half with a good strike from a midfield player.
However all that did was inspire Grove into upping their game and just two minutes later Scott Reynolds put over a great cross from the right which went over the keeper to the far post, where Adam Smith out jumped his marker to head home to restore Grove's two goal cushion.
The tie was as good as settled a few minutes later when Scott again produced a brilliant cross from the right, it was going to land perfectly for sub Tom Miller to slot home but a defender put out a desperate foot to try and intercept it only to put the ball in his own net to make it 4-1.
In the Rowbarton Charity Cup, Morganians were comprehensively beaten by undefeated Division Two side Blagdon Hill, 8-0.
Ben Hebditch scored half of the Hillbillies goals, while James Bryce added two and Pat Sherwood and Liam Vaughan one each.
Milverton Rangers beat Norton Fitzwarren 7-3 in the Seward Cup, with Milverton taking a 3-2 lead at the break.
Norton lost their way in the second half conceding a few lightweight goals.
Scott Mervin and Steve Low scored for Norton and Dave Buckingham smashed home a 25 yard screaming volley.
On target for Rangers were Callum David with a hat trick, Dave Sharland, Brien Cosgrove, Jamie Wood and Harry Davies with one each.
Creech Cougars were 2-1 winners over Hamilton Athletic Foxes thanks to goals from Ali Poole and Carl Reed.
Scott Smith netted for the Foxes with a looping header, but they were unable to grab a second.
Staplegrove Colts have moved up to third after a 7-1 victory over Middlezoy Athletic.
Ian Bishop put Grove ahead from the penalty spot but Danny Russell levelled things up by half time.
Grove scored two more early in the second half but it was still and even contest until the last ten minutes, when the Cots added a further four.
On the score sheet were Kurtis Selway with a pair, Alex Sparks, Paul Short, Leighton Ballentine and Jason Quick with a lovely chip over the keepers head.

Tell Abu Shahrain (Eridu)
Visited 11.00-13.07, 5 June, 2008
The seven mounds of Eridu lie about 24 km south-west of Ur.
Excavations were conducted by a number of early explorers (J. E. Taylor 1855; R. Campbell Thompson 1918; H. R. Hall 1919) with a major investigation led by Fuad Safar between 1946 and 1949 on behalf of the Iraqi Directorate General of Antiquities.
J. E. Taylor, "Notes on Abu Shahrein and Tell el Lahm", Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society 15 (1855), pp. 404-15; J. Oates, "Ur and Eridu: The Prehistory", Iraq 22 (1960), pp. 32-50; S. Lloyd, "Abu Shahrein: A Memorandum", Iraq 36 (1974), pp. 129-38; F. Safar, M. A. Mustafa and S. Lloyd, Eridu (Baghdad 1981).
In Sumerian literature Eridu is claimed as one of the most ancient cities in Mesopotamia, said to antedate the mythical Flood and to be the first city to hold kingship. Eighteen successive levels of mud brick temple architecture, dating from the Early Ubaid to the Late Uruk periods, were exposed during the 1940s excavations on Mound 1; the painted pottery recovered provided the basis for the fourfold division of the Ubaid period. An extensive Ubaid period cemetery was also excavated. The remains of a ziggurat of the Ur III period dominate the centre of the mound. Early Dynastic palaces were excavated on mound 2.
The helicopter landed to the north-east of Mound 1. The visit began at a watchtower presumed to have been erected by the Italians in late 2003. The team climbed to the top of the mound; there is evidence of erosion across the site, especially in two deep gulleys which has revealed inscribed bricks. The inspection proceeded to the remains of the dig-house located on the eastern side of the mound. The lower walls of the dig-house, built from ancient baked bricks, could be traced although no examples of inscribed bricks, visible within the structure in 2003, could be seen. Related to these findings is the report, made by Professor Stefano Seminaria, at an event in the Italian Cultural Institute in London on 29 March 2006 announcing the inauguration of the Baghdad Virtual Museum. He related that, on 20 or 21 March 2006, Professor Giovanni Pettinato and Professor Silvia Chiodi had discovered at Eridu a tablet covered with bitumen. They had looked further and found 500 tablets "disturbed by an explosion". The tablets were said to be literary, historical and lexical. The historical tablets dated from the time of Eannatum, and the latest tablets were from the time of Amar-Suen. This information, or variations of it, was also circulated on various Italian and international websites. Following these revelations, Dr Donny George, then Chairman of the State Board of Antiquities and Heritage, sent inspectors to Eridu, who reported back that there were no tablets on the surface of the site, but only fragments of stamped bricks from the site of Eridu itself and from sites surrounding Eridu such as Ur. On 19 July 2006, at the 52ène Rencontre Assyriologique Internationale in Münster, Professor Pettinato reported that he had actually only found some 70 stamped bricks at Eridu. It seems, then, that what Pettinato and Chiodi actually found were stamped bricks used to build the modern Eridu dig-house 1.
There is no evidence of looting or of recent visits to the site – car tracks were visible near a neighbouring canal and the site fence, which was not visited; from the air, it was possible to see the posts of the fence. Surface scraping close to the fence is presumably the result of field irrigation. Two site guards, who were not present during the inspection, are based at a village some distance from the mound.

Sara Timmer '86
Spring 2012 TRINITY Magazine, Impact
Sara Timmer '86
Major: Biology and chemistry
Title: Teacher
In April, Sara Timmer '86 began conducting a unique experiment. She and her students at Highland Christian School, Highland, Indiana, are germinating soybean seeds in the classroom while other soybeans are germinating way outside of the classroom…namely outer space.
Timmer graduated from Trinity with a degree in biology and chemistry and returned to the College to earn her teaching certification in 2009 through the Adult Studies Accelerated Program.
With her guidance, Timmer's students wrote a proposal for the experiment to be conducted in space on the International Space Station (ISS). For the proposal, she and students in Highland's junior high science club sought help from Dr. Lou Sytsma '65, professor of chemistry at Trinity. Sytsma helped to answer questions they had while they wrote their paper titled, "The Effect of Microgravity on the Quality and Nutritional Value of the Seed Sprout of a Germinated 92M72 Genetically-Modified Soybean."
The microgravity experiment was selected as part of Mission 1 to the ISS, the third flight opportunity provided by America's Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP).
The seeds will be flying in a microgravity research mini-laboratory in low Earth orbit. The aim is to see if food can be grown in other environments. When the seeds return to Earth from space, the students will come to Trinity and work with Dr. Bob Boomsma, professor of biology at Trinity, to compare the seed from space and the one germinating on earth.
The SSEP (http://ssep.ncesse.org) is undertaken by the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education (NCESSE; http://ncesse.org) in partnership with NanoRacks, LLC. This on-orbit educational research opportunity is enabled through NanoRacks, LLC, which is working in partnership with NASA under a Space Act Agreement as part of the utilization of the International Space Station as a National Laboratory.

But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven . . . —Matthew 6:20
Even the weakest Christian can build a lasting superstructure. You may say, "Well now, look here, I am not able to do this or that, and I just feel I must be the weakest Christian that ever lived." It is worth remembering the Old Testament character Barak.
Barak was the equivalent of an Israeli general in the days of Judges. Deborah, a judge in Israel during that period, was told by the Lord that the time had come to defeat the enemy. So she turned to Barak and said, "Take ten thousand of your men and meet on Mount Nebo, and the Lord is going to deliver the enemy into your hand."
Barak said, "No, I just do not think I want to do that. I'm not ready." But then he said, "Deborah, if you'll go with me, I'll go."
She said, "Well, now, just a minute; if I go, you are not going to get any glory; it will go to a woman."
He said, "It's all right."
Now why did Barak do that? He did that because he wanted to see Israel win, but he was afraid they would not win by himself, and he asked for Deborah to go with him. And a woman, Jael, in fact, got the glory, and we have the song of Deborah in Judges 5:24; it is not about Barak. He felt like he was a nobody; nevertheless, in Hebrews 11, when the writer comes down the Old Testament, whom does he choose to mention as having faith? Barak. And I find that so encouraging—that the weakest Christian can do it. The reason Barak was given that glory was that he did not want the glory then.

In Atlantic City, N.J., two springs ago, Jessica Korda did a little dance as she walked down the fairway in an LPGA Tour event. Maybe no one even noticed, but it was monumental to Korda. She was imagining herself walking with her friends at high school graduation.
"My own graduation in the fairway," Korda recalled with a smile after shooting 4-under-par 68 in the opening round of the Kia Classic. "It was a little different, but you kind of get used to it."
Korda skipped her senior year of high school in Bradenton, Fla., because she had a job to do. She earned her LPGA Tour card at Qualifying School as a 17-year-old and then started the sometimes difficult journey to learning what it's like to play golf for money.
Players and officials kidded Korda about her age, calling her a "freshman" in her rookie year. When she won to open last season by prevailing in a five-woman playoff in the Australian Open, the ribbing let up a little bit.
Now Korda jokes that she's in her "junior" year and feeling quite comfortable walking down the halls of the LPGA. She looked mostly at ease on Thursday in making six birdies at Aviara Golf Club. Korda moved into a tie for the lead at 6-under with Jane Park at one point, but fell back with bogeys on the two toughest holes on the course, 15 and 18.
She ended the day tied for fourth, two shots behind Park and one back of the 67s recorded by Hall of Famer Karrie Webb and Sweden's Caroline Hedwall.
Kia Notes: Stacy Lewis has 'off' day as No. 1
Paris: Amanda Blumenherst's game show signs of life
That Korda should excel at such a young age in her career is not overly surprising. She is a worldly 20-year-old with a fine athletic pedigree. Her parents, Petr Korda and Regina Rajchrtova, were professional tennis players, with her dad rising to No. 2 in the world in 1998 on the strength of his victory in the Australian Open.
Most of the summers of Jessica's childhood were spent with her extended family in the Czech Republic. School time meant being back in the U.S., where Jessica enjoyed gymnastics and then golf, but wanted nothing to do with tennis. Too much running and sweating was her reasoning.
When Jessica became a junior golf standout, her father traveled with her to tournaments while her mom stayed home with two younger siblings.
Her upbringing, she believes, gave her a different perspective.
"I don't think I'm your typical American girl," she said. "I think I've got something different about me. I'm friendly with everybody. Mostly because of my parents, I'm very grounded. I don't think of myself as a star. You look on Twitter and you have 10,000 followers. It's like, 'Oh my god, 10,000 people care?' It's crazy for me."
It was about this time last year that Petr Korda stopped traveling with his daughter. He wasn't in Australia for her win, and then with his presence she missed the cut in last year's Kia and the Kraft Nabisco. Maybe he figured it was time to let go.
"It was nice to depend more on myself," Korda said. "You come out of your shell. You start growing your personality. If people accept that, great; if they don't, oh well. It made me grow up a lot faster."Copyright © 2017, The San Diego Union-Tribune

Australia's oldest operating mine has suspended operations after two workers fell more than 20 metres down a mine shaft on Monday.
The men, named by police as Craig Nigel Gleeson, 45, and Alistair Michael Lucas, 25, died of their injuries after the fall, deep underground at Mount Lyell mine on the Tasmanian west coast.
Police Inspector Matthew Richman said the men fell between 20 and 35 metres. One of the men was brought to the surface but died on his way to hospital, while the other died at the scene, police say. His body remained in the mine late Monday afternoon.
The maintenance workers were locals from the close-knit community of Queenstown, where the mine is the main employer, and their next of kin had been notified, police said.
"This is a sad day for us all," West Coast mayor Robyn Gerrity said. "Our sympathies go out to the families of those who didn't come home from work today.
"We've got a long history of mining and three mines currently operating," Mrs Gerrity said. "This is not the first tragedy, and it unfortunately won't be the last."
The men were members of the mine shaft maintenance crew, according to Copper Mines of Tasmania general manager, Scot Clyde.
After the accident at 9am, rescue teams from Mount Lyell and two other nearby mines raced to the scene, but they were unable to revive either man, Inspector Richman said.
Inspector Richman said it appeared that a shaft fall was to blame.
The company said in a statement it was offering support and counselling to the families and all affected by the tragedy. "All operations of the mine are suspended until the day shift tomorrow," it said.
Mining began at Mount Lyell in 1893 for gold, and it expanded into silver and copper before the 1912 North Lyell disaster in which 43 men died as a result of an underground fire.
Mount Lyell is controlled by the Indian-based Vedanta Resources and produces 30,000 tonnes of copper concentrate a year.
The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union's Tasmanian secretary, John Short, said Mount Lyell had problems in the past with mudslides, but he added: "We haven't had a lot of complaint in regard to safety generally at this mine."
Workplace standards investigators and a coroner are investigating the accident.

The Value of a Jesuit Education
Wheeling Jesuit University, one of 28 colleges and universities in the Jesuit tradition of academic excellence and service to others, educates the whole person-- caring for the mind, body and spirit of each student.
The heart of a Jesuit education lies in learning to discern God's will in our lives, and applying that knowledge to all we are and do. You will be provided opportunities to hone your written and verbal skills, using creativity and reason, so that you can be confident of success in the world and, more importantly, as capable leaders in service to others. Discernment allows you to direct your life to a Christ-like giving of yourself to others, and to become a faith-filled person, motivated by love of God and others in such a way that you make your life decisions more for the glory of God and service to your community, than merely for your own personal desires.
We provide opportunities for ongoing development of your imagination, conscience and intellect, and encourage and help you recognize new experiences as opportunities for further growth. We want you to see service to others as more self-fulfilling than just success or prosperity.
Four values serve as foundational principles for Wheeling Jesuit, incarnated in the charism and 450-year tradition of the Society of Jesus:
1) "finding God in all things" -- An ongoing process of discernment is at the heart of Jesuit spirituality and education. This process of discernment calls us to recognize, and then choose, good and reject evil; and to experience the presence of God in all of creation.
2) "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam," "to the greater glory of God" Put simply, the founder of the Society of Jesus, St. Ignatius Loyola, meant that regardless of who we are, or what we do, all that we do should focus on seeking and serving "the greater glory of God," the God Who created us and Who sustains us.
3) "the magis" -- Ignatius placed great emphasis on seeking, in every choice we make, the decision that would result in the "greater good."
4) Integrating the service of Faith and the promotion of Justice In its now-historic mission document of 1975, the Society of Jesus defined our raison d'etre in these words: "the mission of the Society of Jesus today is the service of faith, of which the promotion of justice is an absolute requirement."*ą All that we do should focus on a larger social dimension, and a clear commitment to the full human development of all peoples. In educational terms, the goals of a Jesuit education, are the education of "men and women for others," men and women who are "agents for change."˛

NEW YORK - A series of stunning photographs of a Kentucky woman with terminal cancer has helped her spread the message that people living with the illness can still feel beautiful and sexy.
Jill Brzezinski-Conley, 35, was first diagnosed with cancer at 31 and now has incurable stage-4 breast cancer that has metastasized to her bones. In August, she took a five-day trip to Paris, where acclaimed Australian photographer Sue Bryce took elegant shots of her in front of the Eiffel Tower and other landmarks in the City of Light.
---Courtesy Hailey Bartholomew
"It was a dream come true," Brzezinski-Conley told Savannah Guthrie on TODAY Thursday alongside her husband and Bryce. "I felt like Cinderella. I didn't feel like a cancer patient the way that (Bryce) and the rest of the girls made me feel was unbelievable."
After undergoing a double mastectomy, Brzezinski-Conley decided not to wear a prosthetic for the photo shoot. She believes the media doesn't often show what women suffering from breast cancer actually look like and hopes to give people a glimpse while also raising cancer awareness.
"God had a plan for me, this is what I have, (so) accept it, embrace it and be proud of it, and I just rock it,'' Brzezinski-Conley said. "I just want women and men all around the world just to feel confident with their body even if they don't have cancer. I just want to get the message out to women that if you're diagnosed tomorrow, if you already were diagnosed, just to feel confident and beautiful. Accept your body and embrace it."

Talks over bid for £1.19m sixth form centre in Marlborough
2:00pm Tuesday 3rd June 2014
2:00pm Tuesday 3rd June 2014
Plans to build a £1.19 million sixth form centre at St John's in Marlborough will be discussed by the Eastern Area Planning committee on Thursday.
The committee will decide whether to give the green light to the project which Marlborough town council has already opposed because of parking and road safety worries and fears that the two-storey building will overlook neighbouring houses.
At the moment the academy has the capacity for 1,500 students and is over subscribed by about 120 pupils.
If the centre is given the go-ahead the school will be able to offer to 1,700 places.
The meeting will be held at The Corn Exchange in Devizes from 6pm.

Feeder cattle sold $3 to $5 lower last week on the heels of a similar decline the previous week. Prices have now declined two straight weeks under pressure from higher corn prices, lower futures prices and dwindling hope the drought will ease its grip on the Great Plains.
Stocker cattle and calves were called unevenly steady with the heavier calves finding instances of prices as much as $5 lower. Lightweight calves under 450 pounds saw some bids as much as $10 lower.
"Both feeder and finished cattle cash markets seemed to be finding fairly solid footing by week's end after a whirlwind opening to 2013, with buyers frantic to fill needs the first full week of business and then pulling-in the reins," says USDA Market News Reporter Corbitt Wall.
"However, cattle feeders and backgrounders are keeping a close eye on the rapid drop in offerings with nationwide auction receipts 35 percent lighter than the opening week stampede just two weeks ago. Due to feed and water shortages, producers have been selling cattle ahead of schedule for well over a year and many have now gotten down to those that are just about to be born," Wall says.
"The loss of market position on the CME Live Cattle contracts and seemingly unreachable breakevens have taken many feeder cattle buyers out of the market but the expected destiny with unprecedentedly tight supplies has many doing what they do best - betting on the come."
Last week's auction receipts totaled 226,000, compared to 293,100, the previous week and 258,400 last year. Direct sales of stocker and feeder cattle totaled 44,700 with video/Internet sales at 6,900. The weekly total was 255,100, compared to 323,200 last year.
Cash fed cattle prices traded in a wide range last week. The bulk of the trade occurred on Wednesday at mostly $122 per hundredweight, $1 to $3 lower than the week before. By Thursday there was minimal trade steady to $1.50 higher in the Northern feedlot areas from $122 to $124 per hundredweight. Dressed sales occurred at $198, with a few at $199 per hundredweight.
Boxed beef prices declined for the week. Choice boxed beef cut-out values Friday were $187.44 per hundredweight, down $2.40 from last Friday. Select boxed beef traded at $181.86, down $0.75 from the previous week. The Choice/Select spread was $5.57 per hundredweight.
Slaughter cows and bulls sold unevenly steady to $3 higher. USDA's Cutter cow carcass cut-out value Friday morning was $163.32 per hundredweight, down $1.10 from the previous Friday.
Friday afternoon's cattle on feed report was called bullish with December marketings larger than expected, and placements lower than expected.
Cattle on feed January 1 was pegged at 11.19 million head, 5.6 percent lower than last year. Placements for December totaled 1.664 million head, 99.5 percent of a year ago. Marketings in December totaled 1.745 million head, 1.7 percent less than last year.

Continued light holiday marketing of feeder cattle through the first week of 2013 was not enough to establish a price trend. However, the few high-volume auctions in the Northern Plains that were well tested and the sizeable direct country sales in Texas both quoted feeder steers and heifers selling higher.
Some auction markets throughout the country that had sufficient numbers of lighter weight calves to entice buyers had undertones that were sharply higher. Unlike some years in recent history, nothing bad happened to the commercial cattle markets through the two week holiday break. In fact, a few auctions this past week showed the feeder cattle market entering the New Year like a college bowl team running onto the field. On Thursday, at the Ogallala, NE Livestock Market there were over 6800 head of fresh western Nebraska feeder cattle on offer. There were over 1100 head of top quality 700-800 lb steers that averaged 743 lbs at 153.46, around 250 head of fancy replacement quality 550-600 lb heifers averaged over 1050.00 per head.
Both calves and yearlings appear to be hitting the first full week of marketing in 2013 with a head of steam, but in fact feeder cattle prices are very near where they were a year ago. Fed cattle are roughly 5.00 higher than the same time a year ago with spring CME Live Cattle contracts quoting fats nearly 7.00 over the all-time record high of 130.00. However, the complexion of the weekly cowboy vs. packer competition has changed dramatically of the years with the overwhelming majority of feedlot managers no longer wringing their hands late in the week over what price they will sell their showlist.
The continued vertical integration of the industry coupled with the addition of new highly productive feed additives that limit a cattle feeder's shipping flexibility has caused most slaughter steers and heifers to be sold on some sort of contract or formula basis. According to USDA Market News Mandatory Price Reporting, during 2012 only 27.8 percent of the finished cattle in the 5 Area Feeding Region were sold by a negotiated cash method (compared to about 50 percent just five years ago). The heavily farmer-feeder influenced Iowa-Minnesota region had the most with over 56 percent of cattle marketed by accepting a negotiated cash bid, while Texas had by-far the least with barely 10 percent of the volume being haggled upon.
Winter weather has set-in with most of the major cattle production areas experiencing frigid temperatures and at least a skiff of snow. Winter wheat pasture failed to fully develop in most parts of the Southern Plains and many of the stockers that were turned out are reportedly being moved into confined facilities for feeding. Next week should be very active as the first full week of marketing in January is annually the heaviest auction volume of the year. If the weather cooperates, the size of next week's run should be a good precursor of how light 2013's volume will be. This week's light reported auction volume had 68 percent over 600 lbs and 37 percent heifers.

"This positions Response favorably as we focus on further penetration into European markets and marks the achievement of a key milestone that we set for the Company at the end of our previous fiscal year," commented Tim Shannon, Sr. VP Worldwide Sales and Marketing. "The addition of the D-dimer assay broadens our current test portfolio and allows Response to stay competitive within the European market. It represents the Company''s continued commitment to its RAMP® Point of Care platform while providing a vital and accurate test for patients and their physicians."
About D-dimer
D-dimer is a small protein fragment that is present in the blood after a blood clot is degraded. As a result, D-dimer is considered to be a marker of activation of blood coagulation and is present in the circulation as part of the normal wound healing process. Quantification of D-dimer is commonly used as an aid in ruling out whether a patient has Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), a spectrum of diseases that include Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE). In situations where a full range of diagnostic tests is not available, a negative D-dimer test may allow the patient to be discharged until further tests can be completed, avoiding hospital admission.
The RAMP® D-dimer assay is a quantitative immunochromatographic test indicated for use in the quantification of the fibrin degradation product, D-dimer, in human EDTA anti-coagulated whole blood.
About Response Biomedical

The Loss of Lcpl Charles Eglin
February 15, 1968 — Chu Lai, Republic of Vietnam
Charles William Eglin was playing poker with a few other Marines at B Battery, 2nd LAAM Battalion. One of the players, last name of Washington, was insulted by 'racial' remarks made by Lcpl Eglin, and went to his area and picked up a letter opener that he had purchased in the local village. These letter openers were popular - they were shaped like a little samuri sword, with a long slender blade. Washington went back to the card game - there were more words - and he stuck Eglin in the chest with the letter opener, cutting an aorta.
I had Sergeant of the Guard that very sad night, and I remember sitting in the Duty Office (an APC that was buried) with Washington under arrest. The MPs took Washington away in the morning. We never heard of his Courts Martial or what happened to him.
I had little contact with Lcpl Eglin, but I remember him as a young cocky fellow, like so many of us then, from New York. The other Marines in the card game would have restrained Washington if they had even thought he was dangerous. Washington's record was clean to that point, and I don't believe they felt Eglin was threatened until it happened.
Texas Tech University has declassified accounts of this and other incidents in 2nd LAAM in Viet Nam at this website:

All students in the Ph.D. Program in Urban Education will be required to complete four core courses:
The first two will normally be taken concurrently, as will the second pair of courses, for which the first pair will be prerequisite. .
In addition to the core courses there is one required one credit core colloquium seminar, that will be taken in the first semester.
The core courses are unified by two themes that run through them all: the interdependence of curricular and policy issues, and the connections between research methodology and fundamental questions of the nature and reliability of knowledge in the human sciences. All courses address issues of research methodology; all include cultural, historical, and political dimensions of inquiry.
By taking the core courses as cohort groups, students with diverse backgrounds and intended areas of specialization will begin the process of collaborative inquiry that is central to the structure of this program. At every stage of their doctoral studies, students will learn to articulate their research questions, procedures, and outcomes with those of other students approaching related problems from different perspectives.
For each core course we present a brief course description and a fuller statement of the designer's rationale for the course. The links from each course title lead to more details. Note that the actual course may vary from the proposed outline in its details.
For each core course we present a brief course description and a fuller statement of the designer's rationale for the course. The links from each course title lead to more details. Note that the actual course may vary from the proposed outline in its details.
(3 credits; 30 hours plus conferences; 15-20 students per offering)
Course Description
The course examines research design and methods appropriate for studies in urban education. Ethical issues pertaining to the conduct of research are examined, including issues of informed consent involving research with human subjects. Also, the course examines theoretical research and research designed to test innovations in education as ends of a continuum in which the methods studied are appropriate for addressing questions/issues at multiple levels (e.g., macro, meso, micro levels of society). The theory and methods included in the course are: historical, philosophical, ethnographic, hermeneutic/phenomenological, narrative inquiry, participatory action research, discourse analysis, descriptive statistical, and inferential statistical (parametric and non parametric). Each of the research methods will be examined in terms of the underlying theory (i.e., logics), procedures associated with the methods, and ways in which each the methods has been applied in urban education. In relation to all of the methods studied in the course, the potential of mixed methods will be studied.
As part of the self-study process and the subsequent external review of the program in 2009, the External Evaluation Review Team recommended that "the program incorporate formal and informal discussions of research, as well as experience with doing research, earlier in the program". This course addresses this recommendation and is designed to give students earlier experiences with doing research in urban education.
Course Description
This course examines the relationships through which knowledge is constructed and communicated in urban schools. It approaches pedagogy as a set of relationships among teachers and students mediated by culture, history, learning theories, assumptions about childhood and adulthood, and assumptions about knowledge and ignorance. Students will study pedagogical interactions in schools and the forms that knowledge assumes in the curriculum in discourse, activities, texts, materials, and technology. Students will also be asked to consider the ways that pedagogy is shaped by institutional culture and professional governance. Resources from cultural anthropology and comparative education will be studied to frame contemporary practice as particular versions of what is possible.
It is important to view the pedagogies of the urban classroom through a number of frames to understand the roots of current practice. Researchers are often asked to appraise methods of instruction without having any sense of the historical influences and cultural traditions that sustain these practices, giving them authority and persuasion in the minds of teachers, students, and their families. It is important as well to introduce students to analytic frames through which the act of teaching may be viewed, such as: phenomenology, discourse analysis, cultural anthropology, object relations theory, cognitive science, intellectual history, epistemology, and social reproduction theory. This course is paired with Pedagogy and the Urban Classroom and Historical Contexts of Urban Education, and will provide concrete situations for analysis though field studies that will be shared with Logics of Inquiry. By bringing a cohort of students to the analysis of a common problem in a school setting, we will prepare students for the collaborative work that they will do in their area seminars and dissertation research teams.
(3 credits; 30 hours plus conferences; 15-20 students per offering)
Course Description
This course will explore the emergence and transformation of urban educational institutions--public and private, inclusive and selective, fee-paying and free, religious and secular--out of the dynamic interplay of individual, group, and larger scale intellectual, social, political, and economic factors. Students will study the formation of social identities in the history of education, specifically race, class, gender, ethnicity, and religion, and the relationship of identify formation to current issues in education. The history of the politics of education also will be studied, especially as politics relates to defining educational mission, determining resources, including or excluding individuals and groups, providing equity of educational opportunity, and encouraging community participation in establishing and maintaining schools.
The course will develop the concepts and skills of historiographic research through an examination of prevailing concepts of education and schooling, schooling and identity formation, concepts of childhood and youth, perceived missions of schooling, alternative school structures and governance, available technologies, teacher recruitment and student enrollments, contemporary pedagogies and curricula, and the resulting educational institutions and programs that emerge at a given historical moment.
Contemporary students of urban education need to be aware of the antecedents of the issues they now confront. As David Tyack has argued, current reformers both within and outside of the educational establishment act as if "history was something to be overcome, not a source of insight." Policy analysts need to be aware of the context (political, social, and economic) and actual alternatives that confronted institution-builders and decision-makers in the past; whether conscious decisions were made or if events dictated policy; and, if conscious choices were made, which alternatives were selected, which rejected, and which never seen. Analysts also must determine if and how policies were implemented and what the outcomes were, intended as well as unintended. Curriculum theorists need to be able to explore the past to see how knowledge was perceived, valued, transmitted, received, and validated within the crucible of educational institutions, and the dynamics that drove changes over time.
Historical Contexts is paired with Pedagogy and the Urban Classroom in the first semester in order that students not only gain the historical and philosophical depth needed for serious research study in urban education but also have the opportunity to refer to actual historical examples when discussing philosophical controversies and perspectives.
(3 credits; 30 hours plus conferences; 15-20 students per offering)
Course Description
This course will study educational policies and subsequent implementation as the intended and unintended consequences of many processes: ideological, social, judicial, scientific, political, and economic. Within the context of each issue, potential policy alternatives will be identified and actual policy and implementation decisions studied. Students will learn to use relevant concepts and methodologies from the social and behavioral sciences to analyze issues critically, including appropriate quantitative and qualitative methods.
Case studies of real-world policies and practical outcomes will be studied to explicate within a specific temporal and political context complex urban educational problems. Through these cases students will learn the many methodologies, including cost-benefit, historical, and comparative, that must be brought to bear in the study and resolution of educational problems. Case studies will deal with such issues as school choice, educational equity and opportunity, curriculum and standards, staffing and staff unionization, school-based budgeting and decision-making, school size and organizational structure, and the allocation of authority in school systems as reflected in school and system governance. The course will include analysis of the processes of public policy-making and implementation; team fieldwork on policy problems, especially those involving the relationship between policy and power; seminars with education policy-makers; and an internship in public or private agencies connected to the field of education.
Learning to analyze and interpret education policy issues is essential for leaders to make effective policy decisions. They also must be able to examine alternative paradigms as well as interpret specific policies. They must be able to see policy issues within a broad sociopolitical context to understand how policies are intentionally or unintentionally arrived at, and to comprehend links between policies and outcomes.
This course will approach issues of educational policy in terms of paradigms and paradigm shifts. Policy-makers must be able to examine alternative paradigms as well as interpret specific policies. A policy paradigm involves clusters of assumptions and fundamental approaches underlying the ways policy-makers and analysts address goals, processes, and outcomes of educational policy. Improving education may require major paradigm shifts. Such decisions entail significant shifts in the organization of images, the culture of institutions, communities and social structures. Anthropologist Clifford Geertz identifies these as "symbolic sources of illumination," which we use "to put a construction upon events, to orient ourselves to the ongoing course of experienced things." These sources are directly related to a society's centers of power that are frequently competing or conflicting.
Policy studies, therefore, must be embedded in considerations that lead to understanding the relationships between and among cultures, power, policy, and practices. They must address alternative educational goals related to culture and power as much as methods appropriate to their realization. This course will proceed on the assumption that these are open questions, the answers for which are not always present.
Whether the result of intentional or unintentional processes, or of active or passive decision-making, policies need to be implemented. A policy once formulated may never be implemented or, if implemented, may be carried out in a manner that undermines or contradicts that self-same policy. Hence, connections between policy and practice must be closely examined within the same field of forces appropriate to the examination of policy-making itself.
This core course continues to develop the twin themes of earlier core courses: the integral relationship between curriculum development and educational policy-making, and the construction and communication of knowledge and how these relate to issues of schooling. The course treats education in a broad context. It includes traditional schools as well as other institutions that offer instruction, and it includes all areas of public policy that have an impact on children and schooling, not just explicitly educational policy.
In addition to the to the four core courses taken in the first year, a colloquium is required. The Colloquium is a one one-credit seminar required of all students in the Urban Education Ph.D. Program. It is a very important part of the curriculum and help to prepare students for the rest of their work in the program, including researching and writing a dissertation.
The Core Colloquium is designed to:
Upon completion of these five courses students will be expected to pass the First Examination. They must take all parts of the examination before completing 30 credits in the program (excluding transfer credits) and may not continue in the program beyond 45 credits until they have passed all parts of the First Exam. The First Examination covers the same general topics as the required core courses, including an announced list of specific readings drawn from the core course bibliographies.
Second Examination: The second examination will consist of: 1) a two hour oral examination taken during the final semester of course work and 2) a second evaluation activity prior to the oral examination consisting of either a written assignment and/or formal scheduled meetings with the faculty sponsor. Under special conditions, by request of both student and sponsor, and approved by the Executive Committee, the Second Examination may be scheduled up to two semesters following the completion of the student's course work.
Procedurally, the student names a faculty sponsor by the end of the first month of the semester preceding the last semester of course work. The faculty sponsor and the student negotiate the choice of two other members for the examination committee, develop reading lists in concert with those faculty members, and agree on a procedure for administering and meeting the requirements of the examination. They also set a tentative date for the oral examination and any other deadlines and conditions. A written plan for the examination, the reading lists, and list of faculty committee members should be submitted to the Executive Officer by November 15 or April 15 of the semester before taking the examination.
Second Examination Committee: Sponsor (tentative dissertation advisor) must be an appointed Urban Education faculty member. One additional member of the committee must be an appointed Urban Education faculty member. The third member of the committee need not be a member of the Urban Education faculty, though he or she must be an appointed member of the doctoral faculty. According to Graduate Center rules, "…at least three members of the dissertation defense committee must be members of The Graduate Center doctoral faculty" (p.34). Additional members beyond the first three may come from faculty not appointed to the Graduate Center or who teach outside CUNY, but they must possess a Ph.D. and submit a c.v. for approval. Approval of committee rests with the EO with questionable cases brought to Executive Committee for a vote.
Students will complete approximately 27 credits of elective courses, chosen from: recommended courses offered at The Graduate Center across its many doctoral programs; the area and program seminars in Urban Education; and reading courses and special topics courses under the supervision of a member of the doctoral faculty (subject to approval of their Studies Committee).
The student is advanced to candidacy for the Ph.D. degree after completing:
Dissertation Oral Examination: The Ph.D. is awarded after the dissertation

City of Eureka offering new outdoor program for families
EUREKA- Instilling a love of nature at a young age. That's the goal Explore Eureka, a new program by the City of Eureka's Parks and Recreation Department.
Thursday was Nature Strollers Day at the Hikshari' Trail in Eureka, where parents and their small children could walk in a group along the bay, all as part of Explore Eureka, which launched in February.
"We just realized as a department that we have access and the community has access to all of these waterfront trails, sequoia park, the Hikshari' Trail, and we wanted to offer programming that takes place at these locations to expose the community to what's available to them," said Shannon Fazio, the Recreation Activities Coordinator for the City of Eureka's Parks and Recreation Department.
Parents who were participating with their children in Nature Strollers say they enjoy utilizing Explore Eureka for multiple reasons.
"You go to a playground or something, and there's always kids to play with, but there not always the same kids. It's good to see the same people and build relationships and friendships with them," said Michael Deppe Carter.
"We live in a beautiful area where there's so much nature around us, and we're rooted in it. And we definitely want to get out and experience it and just embrace the beauty that is Humboldt County," said Melissa Vasquez.
Parks and Recreation officials say providing a safe and informative atmosphere for families to enjoy is another goal of the program.
"They're led by our instructors that are all trained and have skills and educations in these particular areas and they can just give you an extra opportunity to learn more about the places that you might visit all the time and didn't know what else might be going on there," Fazio said.
One parent with a three year old son, Michael Deppe Carter, says he sees the difference when his child is participating in an explore eureka event.
"This group is the same people that we see at the Play Center all the time, but he tends to be much more toy-focused at the play center. But out here, I've noticed that he interacts a lot more with the kids and it's been real nice," Carter said.
Parks and Recreation officials say the program will continue to evolve moving forward.
"We are interested in what other people would like to see happen. If they would like to have interpretive walks on the trails or in the forests or if they would like to see other classes that utilize the outdoors and nature," said Fazio.
Explore Eureka offers a variety of other activities and programs. To find out more, you can visit http://www.

Chiyo's fūinjutsu VS the Fourth Hokage's fūinjutsu
There is no way to tell which fūinjutsu was stronger. Simply saying Chiyo's was stronger because she didn't die is a sophism.
- Chiyo's fūinjutsu might not have killed her, but it has been strongly implied it killed Karura.
- The Kyūbi has been called the strongest of the Tailed beasts, implying it required a stronger fūinjutsu to seal.
- The circumstances of the sealings were different. Shukaku had already been in Sunagakure's possession for generations, while the Kyūbi had seemingly never been sealed before. In fact, the Second Kazekage seemingly started the entire Jinchūriki thing by researching Shukaku. It could very well be that Sunagakure had a fūinjutsu specifically created to seal Shukaku.
--ShounenSuki 12:14, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Karura would've died anyway, to seal a tailed beast, a human sacrifice is needed hence the name "Power of Human Sacrifice". The seal Chiyo used might have been weaker on purpose, until he was put in a situation where the power of the Kyubi was needed, Naruto never really used it, Gaara was shown to have control of the sand, trouble sleeping and some kind of communication with the Shukaku for a while. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 14:25, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Correct me if im wrong in Japanese Chiyo means Eternal. Kyuubinaruto123 (talk) 20:53, 7 June 2009 (UTC) PEACE BROTHER!
One-Handed Seals
Did anyone notice in the anime she used one-handed seals when she summoned that mechanical bird she used to send a message to the Sand? Was this seen in the manga? Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 04:12, September 20, 2009 (UTC)
- The bird was anime only. Jacce | Talk 04:42, September 20, 2009 (UTC)
- Don't we mention abilities seen in the anime however? Thanks for your answer though. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 04:50, September 20, 2009 (UTC)
- When shinobi gather or concentrate chakra, they put their hands together in a tiger hand-seal. This isn't a true hand-seal, though, and can also be done with just one hand. It simply helps them concentrate. Perhaps this is what Chiyo used. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 13:35, September 20, 2009 (UTC)
- She uses a couple of a hand seals with one hand. Though if it's anime only and it was such a small scene I guess we shouldn't even bother. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 15:03, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

Chakra Extraction Technique
When Naruto wants Chiyo to use his chakra to resurrect Gaara, he says: "You can do it, can't you, Granny?" Does this not tell us that just my placing your hands on top of somebody else's, you can't use that person's chakra, but you need to be able to extract that person's chakra and use it for yourself? I know I made this really complicated, but I'm in a hurry. Thoughts? Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 22:57, September 26, 2009 (UTC)
- To me it seemed more like he was asking if it was possible. The Japanese could go both ways, but two things point in favour of my viewpoint.
- If it was a special ability of Chiyo, it would have likely been mentioned in her databook profile. Nothing was said about it, though;
- The databook entry for One's Own Life Reincarnation says: "In case one's own chakra is insufficient, a third party can assist." (己のチャクラが不十分な場合、第三者に補助させることも。, "Onore no chakura ga fujūbunna baai, daisansha ni hojisaseru koto tomo.").
- --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 23:54, September 26, 2009 (UTC)
- I see. Maybe if I knew Japanese. :( Thank you. Jules R. J. Blake (talk) 23:57, September 26, 2009 (UTC)
Sunagakure no Chiyo-sama
Should we add this as one of her titles? Tsunade calls her that when she mentions her faith for the next generation to the Konoha Council. It could be translated as Honored Chiyo of Sunagakure. Sandersonia (talk) 01:29, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
- That seems more a way of reminding readers who she was. I base this solely on the fact that I, a Japanese-illiterate, know all the words in that "title". ~SnapperTo 04:00, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
- I agree, that's not a title but a form of address. In the same way, Tsunade herself could be called Konohagakure no Tsunade-sama. --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 07:36, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
Really? Playing dead? lol c'mon people, that's actually in the databook? User:Jedi Mc] 04:00, Nov.16, 2010 (UTC)
Wooden Hand
Should not it be mentioned in her abilitie's section ? --Elveonora (talk) 01:18, December 5, 2011 (UTC)
Chiyo, like Sasori, modified a part of her body and turned her right arm into a mechanical one.
Not just her hand, but her whole arm. Joshbl56 01:23, December 5, 2011 (UTC)
- (editconflict)
|Chiyo, like Sasori, modified a part of her body and turned her right arm into a mechanical one. She normally kept it outfitted with a chakra shield, and could replace it with any puppet arm if something were to happen to it.
I see, and what about to put it to her infobox as a tool ? --Elveonora (talk) 01:34, December 5, 2011 (UTC)
Chiyo installed one into her own arm and into the puppets of Sasori's parents.
This is on the Mechanical Light Shield Block. I think it works fines. Joshbl56 01:45, December 5, 2011 (UTC)
Mechanical bird
I found somewhere that she was able to summon mechanical bird. She made it in manga? Which chapter? 220.127.116.11 (talk) 10:55, September 9, 2012 (UTC)
- She never used the Mechanical Bird in the manga.--Cerez365™(talk) 11:00, September 9, 2012 (UTC)
One hand seal again
sorry for not talking on the old one but it was blocked and i know im alittle late one it. but she has performed a couple of hand seals for that bird and i think since haku and the crystal user (Guren?) was mentioned to do it i think Chiyo should be mentioned in her other skills section. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 18:32, December 16, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
- Hellooooo..... Its okay people change is good... talk to me :) ....184.108.40.206 (talk) 15:15, December 17, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
- I'll change it :) 22.214.171.124 (talk) 15:24, December 17, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
I think you might be referring to the Seal of Confrontation.--Cerez365™(talk) 16:09, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Don't think anyone is referring to that Cerez. If you look at the episode after Naruto defeated that fake Itachi, Chiyo performs a jutsu with just one hand. I doubt we're talking about the Seal of Confrontation when it comes to techniques ;) --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | My Wiki | Channel 19:16, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
Deidara uses the seal of concentration sometimes when he detonates his C1 explosives, and thats a Jutsu.22.214.171.124 (talk) 20:02, December 17, 2012 (UTC) Yhwach
- Deidara, the 2nd hokage, and im sure alot others could do that one, one hand seal to concentrate chakra, what we are talking about here is that Haku, Gerun, and Chiyo performed multiple hand seals with one hand. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 20:06, December 17, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
Still i would suggest just letting this one instance in which a canon cahracter does something non-canon in the Anime, and she only did that one time. Besides to me it looked like she just unsealed the Mechanical Bird from the scroll, like how Tenten stores her weapons and tools in her scrolls all the time.22.214.171.124 (talk) 21:12, December 17, 2012 (UTC) Yhwach
- So what if she did it one time in the anime, Hinata does the mystical palm healing thing in the anime one time and its noted on her ability list, and I dont think its non-canon since kakashi never saw multiple one-hand seal before haku. Since the one hand thing is one Haku's page it should be on Chiyo's page. P.S. didnt Tenten have to use hand seals to release her weapons at first? if shes able to just puff them out of no where now should that be mentioned? 184.108.40.206 (talk) 03:24, December 22, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
So if no one response i guess there is no arguement and i can go ahead and add it right 188.8.131.52 (talk) 19:47, December 22, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever
On the Hinata thing, the Mystical Palm technique shows up in the Manga, this doesn't. Besides this just looks like she made a seal of confrontation-put her hand down-and then another seal of confrontation, that's it.184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:05, December 22, 2012 (UTC) Yhwach
When did she use one?--Elveonora (talk) 20:18, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
- Her puppet used it.--LeafShinobi (talk) 20:24, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
- She equipped two of them to her puppets in chapter 274. -- The Talk Goblin 20:30, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
What content on this article actually comes from the Wikipedia article of the same name that warrants the notice? As far as I could tell from skimming the article, there isn't anything on this page that is directly copied from the Wikipedia article, so if someone could shed light on what sections are copied so that they may be rewritten into unique wording to remove the notice template, it would be highly appreciated. :) (Side-note: This is apparently the only character article on the whole wiki with this notice template placed on it.) --Sajuuk 14:30, September 22, 2016 (UTC)

Kuala Lumpur is one of South East Asia's most exhilirating cities, and gateway to the rest of Malaysia. We asked you for your 'top insider tips' on our facebook page. Here's what you had to say…
You can now go to the top of the Petronas Towers
Simon Collier says:
If you want to go to the Petronas Towers' 'Skybridge' make sure you are in the basement ticket office no later than 7am to get your free tickets. Oh, and they close earlier during Ramadan.
Mark Horan says:
My tip is now you can go to the top of the Petronas Towers 🙂 Only problem is they only allow 60 up to the top every day, but if u get to the desk after queuing and all the 60 places are taken ask for tickets for the following day. They don't tell you that you can do this but we did it! It was great to get to the top great views. You also get to go on the bridge. It all costs €9 approx so great value.
Hostelworld.com says:
While you used to be only able to visit the Skybridge which is a bridge connecting both towers half way up the buildings, you can now go to the very top of Tower 2. The only problem is the fee – a visit to the Skybridge used to be free but costs RM3 (US$1/€0.70/£0.60 approx). Also, according to the official website of the Petronas Towers, the next type of ticket available costs RM350 (US$110/€80 approx) which is a premium ticket that includes dinner at the top.
Be careful of monkeys at the 'Batu Caves'
Juraj Sasko says:
When you decide to see the Batu Caves (around 50 min by bus from KL), be careful with the monkeys there. They can be pretty dangerous. Hide all bottles and cameras, otherwise they might steal it from you or even worse, attack you!
Hostelworld.com says:
Juraj is right – the monekys along the steps leading up to the Batu Caves can indeed be very agressive. Be careful of them.
Be wary when getting taxis
Jasmine Ong says:
Try to avoid cabs from anywhere within the city. Most of the time they aren't metered and charge exorbitantly. Get one from your hotel/airport/shopping malls concierge/ask a local to call one for you.
Abiddin Ibrahim says:
Don't take a cab in KL if you a budget traveller, they will squeeze you dry. The best bet is public transport. Not the best in the world sorry to say, but it gets you there.
Kathy Briggs says:
Cabs: I always insist on the meter. Anytime I was quoted RM15, the same journey then cost MR 6-10 on a meter- even in the rush hour.
Orlando Jesus Marin Artavia says:
Be clear about the place you are going and be sure you have the right address. I once had the taxi driver driving me for an hour around the same area and not finding the place I wanted to go.
Karthik Shanmugam says:
There is no requirement of a cab. Just be armed with a good map and a rail card if you're a tourist. Every place is accessible on foot.
Stephen Burrows II says:
Always negotiate your fare before leaving. Sometimes the meter cabs can sting you if you are stuck in traffic.
Hostelworld.com says:
Unfortunately taxi drivers are known to con tourists in KL. Always insist on the meter.
Chinatown – yay or nay?
Jasmine Ong says:
Tourist traps include Chinatown and the hawkers at the stalls on Jalan Petaling. Knock down at least 50%-70% of the opening price before buying anything from there.
Orlando Jesus Marin Artavia says:
Chinatown is usually the best place to stay in town as it is very central.
Jaroslav Píšek says:
In my opinion it's better to stay close to KL Sentral than in Chinatown. It's great for public transport Chinatown is just 1 station (3 min) far away.
Hostelworld.com says:
Both Chinatown and Sentral are great locations. And when shopping in Chinatown, make sure to haggle, haggle, haggle…
Take advantage of free WiFi
Jasmine Ong says:
Well known chains such as Starbucks and McDonald's offers free unlimited WiFi if you make a purchase.
Hostelworld.com says:
While both these omnipresent chains may offer free WiFi, it might not be unlimited, so don't be surprised if you're kicked off two hours into your session..
Avoid land travel on Friday afternoons
Jasmine Ong says:
Avoid 12-2pm on Fridays if you're taking land transport. It's Muslim prayers day and there's normally massive jams around the city.
Invest in a 'Touch N Go' card
Jasmine Ong says:
Get a Touch n Go card which functions as a prepaid travel card. It provides you with unlimited travel on Rapid KL buses, LRT (Light Rail Transit) and MRT (Mass Rapid Trains). It's pretty connected unless you want to travel further out. Ask for a special tourist edition at KL Central or LRT stops.
Amey Abhyankar says:
'Touch N Go' cards no longer work on Rapid KL buses. So keep a note of that if you are a return international tourist.
Hostelworld.com says:
For the most up to date information on KL's Touch N Go card visit their website.
Be careful walking through Bukit Nanas Rainforest
James Eckels says:
One guide book suggests walking back to the city through the little rainforest from Menara KL. When I got to the bottom, a large sign warned: Do not enter – watch for cobras and scorpions!
Hostelworld.com says:
Be extremely careful if you decide to walk through this city centre rainforest.
Go for a drink in 'Skybar' at the Trader's Hotel
Gäbriel Rotinhell says:
Visit the SkyBar at night. Enjoy a drink overlooking the brightly lit Twin (Petronas) Towers (world's tallest).
Pras Murukesvan says:
Agree on the Skybar at the Traders Hotel as one of the best view spots at night
Hostelworld.com says:
These guys are right – the view from here at night is unforgettable. But make sure to don your best clothes if you decide to go for a cocktail there.
KL Tower has the best view
Pras Murukesvan says:
During the day, go to the KL Tower for unnrivaled views of KL – even better than the Petronas Towers
KL is hot
Ronel Marais says:
KL is hot!! Very very hot…lowest recorded temperature ever was 18°C. So don't pack jeans.
Azhari Wahab says:
Got to agree KL is very hot, so pack less. You can always wash and dry it up within hours. But careful on the seasonal rain storm especially at the end of the year.

I thought it might be interesting to bring up the topic of topographical.
William A. Hupy
Re: topographical
Why? What do you consider particularly interesting about this word?
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
Re: topographical
Are you referring to topographical maps? (That link is to the "US Topo Quadrangles — Maps for America" site.) I'm not a surveyor but I need to generate one of these once in awhile, or work with sections of one for clients. Topographical maps contain a great deal of detailed information, some of which can be turned on or off for the user's need.

Re: topographical
Creating topographical maps was once a laborious task. In my short tenure as a surveyor, I had to do some topographical leg work. One of my associates did his topographical work in head-hunter infested jungles. I labored on the open and arid plains of Texas.
Topographical maps can now be generated using GPS data. In my later tenure as a GPS engineer, I helped obviate my previous work as a surveyor.
