More Trivia
What about adding something to the trivia section about her speech tick that Naruto inherited, or is that already included in Naruto's page? CorwinDruzil (talk) 00:23, September 12, 2010 (UTC)CorwinDruzil
- It seems I missed it. CorwinDruzil (talk) 05:40, September 16, 2010 (UTC)CorwinDruzil
Kushina Uuzmaki's jinchuriki forms
Shouldn't we add an article that refers to her jinchuriki forms? Because as you can see in this picture http://animextremist.com/mangas-online/naruto/capitulo-501/naruto8.html , she is freeing the nine tails' chackra; ALTHOUGH It is not possible to estimate completely well in the photo how many tails she is freeing, but one notices that at least it treats about her initial jinchuriki form? I don't know. Give me your opinions, please. And thanks for reading Axel_Carrozzo (talk)
- That isn't Kushina freeing or using the Nine-Tails' chakra, it's the Nine-Tails being ripped out of her. It isn't a jinchūriki form, it's a jinchūriki end. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 01:37, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
Usual clothing
i think we should edit the appearence section to say that she is seen wearing a loose fitting dress and apron, we only saw her once in the anime and got a bigger dose of her in the manga,--Cmcwiki (talk) 22:43, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
- She's seen wearing it on three occasions: Jiraiya's flashback, before Naruto's birth, and in Naruto's mind. Given the frequency and the fact that she isn't seen in any other outfit, "usual" seems appropriate. ~SnapperTo 02:03, September 28, 2010 (UTC)
they are probably just maternity clothes, kurenai wore different clothes when we saw her during the pein arc--Cmcwiki (talk) 16:51, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
The Nine-Tails dying?
About the mention that Kushina wanted Minato to seal the Fox back into her so that she will kill the Fox with her death, (from the translated manga at least) it doesn't say that since Kushina mentioned that she want to die with the Fox inside her so that it will prevent the Fox from 'coming back for a while'. I think we can understand that to mean that when she dies, the Fox will somehow be rendered 'inert'...maybe like disrupting its form or perhaps dispersing its chakra temporarily until it reforms, etc. etc. (the exact consequence is unknown).
If it is that easy to kill a Tailed Beast by sealing the beast into a human and later killing said vessel, people would've done so a long time ago. - Volrath77 (talk) 04:43, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
- From what I gather, killing them is a temporary measure, and when they come back, they do so unsealed and under no-one's control. I'm guessing 3-tails died with Yagura, and it was still running wild until Deidara got it. So, not nearly as good as keeping it locked down. ZeroSD (talk) 06:52, January 9, 2011 (UTC)
Name Similarity
It may be pointless to post this, but Kushina's name is kinda similar to Kushinada-hime from the Kusanagi legend. Something tells me that might just be a coincidence or me thinking too much on it but has anyone else noticed this?--Kohaku-chan (talk) 11:47, February 17, 2011 (UTC)
The Nine tailed fox's Yin & Yang chakras sealed in her?
Was it ever explained how both the Yin & Yang chakras were sealed within Kushina and why they couldn't do the same for Naruto? Minato siad it was not possible to do so, but Kushina had the Fox sealed within her at full power.—This unsigned comment was made by 22.214.171.124 (talk • contribs) .
- It's simple really...because Mianto only wanted to seal the "good"/"Yin" chakra of the fox into Naruto. Jinchūriki normally have the beasts sealed in them completely, yang and all....--Cerez☺ (talk) 23:15, March 11, 2011 (UTC)
- Maybe he didn't have a strong enough seal to hold it all. We don't know who sealed the Nine-Tails in Kushina. Maybe a better seal would require other things, or maybe more time, things they didn't have. We'll probably learn more on this down the line. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:20, March 11, 2011 (UTC)
In chapter 94, Jiraiya comments that Naruto's body is too small a container to hold the Nine Tail's chakra, so perhaps sealing just the Yin chakra was all Minato could safely put into Naruto? Mito Uzumaki (first jinchuriki of the kyuubi) was still alive when Kushina was an adolescent, so the Nine Tails wasn't sealed within Kushina until she was older. --Ravarath (talk) 17:37, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

The Orange Hokage?
In the trivia section, the claim that Naruto's epithet is 'The Orange Hokage' and relating it to his parents having 'Red' and 'Yellow' in theirs. Where is this from in the canon? Is this speculation?

Eyes Revisited
So, I tried looking but to no avail, so could someone post a link to where Kushina was illustrated in colour in the manga please~--Cerez365™ 15:18, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
- She was shown in colour twice: once on the cover of chapter 503 and once on the cover of volume 53. You can't see her eyes on the former, but the latter shows them being greenish. —ShounenSuki (talk | contribs | translations) 21:44, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, I was staring at the latter for how long now, I realised they weren't anywhere near violet.--Cerez365™ 21:51, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
- I just looked and even had several others on another forum confirm for me but Kushina's eyes aren't green. Outside of the Anime Violet/Blue no where does Kishimoto colour Kushina's eyes. Where are you guys getting green from? ¥ Super Novice ↔ Talk 2 Me ¥ 22:00, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
- Ah, I was staring at the latter for how long now, I realised they weren't anywhere near violet.--Cerez365™ 21:51, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
- It'd be from the volume cover she was on with Minato and Naruto.--Cerez365™ 22:04, October 7, 2011 (UTC)
- I looked at both of the ones that ShounenSuki listed, the one with Naruto running out the window during breakfast/lunch with his parents and another with Minato and Kushina holding a baby Naruto, and neither have her eyes open enough to see a colour outside of a grey. The Grey could actually be the lining of her eyes so it's best not to use that. ¥ Super Novice ↔ Talk 2 Me ¥ 19:53, October 8, 2011 (UTC)
It says that she goes to join Minato in the afterlife, but isn't Minato sealed in the Death God, not in the afterlife? Also, while we're talking about that, when Minato appeared to Naruto was it really him or just a kind've clone of him leaving him a message?—This unsigned comment was made by AsianInvasion799 (talk • contribs) .
- Sure sweat the small stuff =_=. Why would it be a clone? You're assuming that their souls got sealed into Naruto when it was just their chakra and will that took on form.--Cerez365™ 13:56, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
Should we put that somehow she knew that her baby was a boy?--Spcmn (talk) 00:23, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
- (editconflict)Although Kishimoto has said he doesn't intend for much technology in Naruto they're not exactly backwater o.o There's a fair bit of technology so I don't think it needs to be pointed out that she had an ultrasound.--Cerez365™ 00:26, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
Kishimoto said stuff like no cars or guns. But they have computers and television though O_O --Elveonora (talk) 13:13, January 13, 2012 (UTC)

Time line... stuff
Sooo, I wondered: How do we know that she became Jinchūriki only after she enrolled in the academy? I always thought she was send to Konoha, became a host and while that happened, she enrolled in the academy. Or even after she already became a host. Seelentau 愛議 20:16, January 26, 2012 (UTC)
She was sent to Konoha to become a Jinchūriki, we don't know the exact order.--Deva 27 20:25, January 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Mito was also still alive back then. And there's that little word of advice she gave her about filling the vessel with love first and stuff.--Cerez365™ 20:33, January 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Well... it seems I really am blind today. I thought the article's describtion of the events was wrong, but I just read it wrong all the time. So, she was sent to Konoha, enrolled in the academy and became a Jinchūriki, too... wow, sorry guys^^ Seelentau 愛議 21:07, January 26, 2012 (UTC)

Afterlife with Minato?
She can't be together with Minato in the afterlife. His soul was sealed in the shinigami, he will never reach the pure world. Seelentau 愛議 23:40, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
That's what she said though. Perhaps the shinigami resides in the pure land? Who knows. Skitts (talk) 23:43, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, who knows. We only know that Minato's soul isn't in the afterlife, thus her statement is wrong. Trivia ahoi! :D Seelentau 愛議 23:56, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
Nagato said the same ... most likely not to make Naruto sad. If they have said: "Cool, now we will get tortured for all eternity in Death God's stomach" that would be too dramatic and hard for Naruto ... remember he is dumb about such things. --Elveonora (talk) 00:10, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- No, those who are sealed within the Shinigami are sealed within the Shinigami forever. It doesn't reside in the pure world, this chunk was taken from the Summoning: Impure World Ressurection page:
"The soul of the intended revived must also reside in the pure world (浄土, jōdo); those whose soul has been consumed by the Death God, for example, cannot be resurrected."
Which lays out the fact that the souls consumed do NOT reside in the pure world. I don't quite understand it myself on how those two would "be together" in the afterlife. Perhaps Minato figured out a way to save his soul from being sealed by sealing it within the seal of Naruto, but that's unknown and will remain unknown until Kishi decides, and even if he decides, to reveal the inner-workings of the technique. SusanooUnleashed (talk) 00:18, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- It is also completely possible that the pure world and impure world is a bit of poetry on the users part, and that whatever essence that is sealed into the death god is that, sealed within the death god and out of bounds of the Impure World Resurrection. I'm going to assume that Kushina, being dead, knows she is going to see her lover again, and Minato, being a Kage knows not to screw his wife over.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 00:47, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- I also don't see a reason to discredit Kushina's words with out-of-Narutoverse knowledge. That just feel like encroachment. Besides Shinigami might allow conjugal visits or something like that. Kushina should have been well aware of where souls go with that technique, maybe she knows stuff we don't.--Cerez365™ 00:50, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
Well, technically, that was just Kushina's chakra which took on her form. =P Skitts (talk) 00:55, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
Again, I don't think they meant that literary. Nagato said the same when being sealed with Totsuka.
So yeah, I think they said that only to not make Naruto worry ... to create the "illusion" that once Naruto dies all 3 will be together. Or maybe in Kushina's case her soul was sealed as well into Death God so she and Minato can be together for all eternity. --Elveonora (talk) 16:31, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
Kushina' soul wasn't sealed in the Death God because he didn't use Shiki fujin on her, just Hakke Fuin. Skitts (talk) 18:18, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
We have never seen what happened after Minato sealed what left of Kyubi into Naruto. --Elveonora (talk) 02:44, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

How about replacing the infobox image with a more centred and focused image like this --Salil (talk)(Contributions) 13:13, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

False Trivia
"She is the only known jinchūriki to have survived the extraction of a tailed beast. This was due to her clan's vitality which she inherited" this is not true, as Sage split the Ten-Tails into 9 beasts and sealed it's body into the moon ... he lived afterwards "_" --Elveonora (talk) 05:21, May 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Not sure that applies, since the Sage himself was already dying. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 11:55, May 18, 2012 (UTC)
My point being that the extraction hasn't killed him even in his old age. He lived long enough after to choose one of his sons and to say goodbye to young Tailed Beasts --Elveonora (talk) 15:51, May 18, 2012 (UTC)
We don't know if he selected a son before or after the extraction. The only post extraction bit we saw was him saying goodbye to each tailed beast, and that didn't take long. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:54, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
- The point is, Elveonora, we don't know enough about the Sage nor the timeline of events that happened leading up to his death to make an accurate conclusion on how long, after the Ten-Tails was extracted, he died. It is speculation to assume he lived very long after the Ten-Tails was free. We know that the reason he unsealed it was because he was nearing death, and afraid it would run free. In all likelihood, he chose his successor, unsealed the beast, said his farewells and died. The last three points could've taken a matter of minutes to do. If new information comes to light that would support your point, then we can change it. For now, though, Kushina is the only confirmed individual to have lived significantly long after the Tailed beast's extraction. ~ Ten Tailed Fox 07:19, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
^This guy (or girl, don't this person's gender). Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:52, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
The point isn't how long he lived after ... all hosts except Kushina have died DUE TO extraction/right after. This hasn't killed him, thus both him and Kushina have SURVIVED the extraction.--Elveonora (talk) 16:01, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
This isn't true. She tells Minato to seal her away with the Kyuubi because she already knows she's going to die.—This unsigned comment was made by 188.8.131.52 (talk • contribs) .
- Well we don't know that do we? The only host we've seen sealed in its entirety was Gaara. While we did see Yugito getting sealed, we didn't see the end product. We don't know for sure when all the other hosts died; whether death was instant or whether it occurred minutes or hours later. We simply cannot base our assumption of things solely on what we've seen of Gaara. Like I said, Kushina is significant because she not only lasted awhile after Nine-Tails was un-sealed, but managed to move her body to help Minato in its sealing afterwards, which no Jinchūriki to date has been shown capable of. There simply isn't enough information. ~ Ten Tailed Fox 16:22, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
Well: "If the tailed beast is removed from its jinchūriki's body, the jinchūriki will die" "The host then died due to the removal of their tailed beast" taken from Jinchuriky and Sealing Technique: Phantom Dragons articles. --Elveonora (talk) 16:33, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not questioning if the host dies. We know that is the ultimate fate of those who have the tailed beasts removed from their bodies, but neither of those state how long it takes to kill them. Nor has anyone in the anime or manga stated such. Again - not enough information. ~ Ten Tailed Fox 16:35, May 19, 2012 (UTC)
Was her name based on Susanoo's wife?
I was just wondering, is it possible that Kushina's name came from "Kushinadahime", who was Susanoo's wife in mythology? I found her story was:
"The daughter of Ashinazuchi and Tenazuchi. About to be devoured by the serpent Yamata no orochi, Kushinadahime was saved by Susanoo in exchange for becoming his wife. Susanoo transformed the girl into a comb and placed her in his hair, then defeated the serpent. He afterwards built a palace in Izumo where he married her."
It sounds probable to me, so I'm asking if it's okay to put this in her trivia section? --Kai Maciel (talk) 09:50, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
Considering her name isn't written with kanji, probably note. I do remember someone else asking something like that, but in a random Naruto forum I used to lurk. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 11:58, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
- From what I saw the name is Kishi indada and the hime suffix which is really clever of Kishimoto if that's where it came from. Given that the manga has a lot of stuff borrowed from or related to the Susanoo tale, I'd be all for the mention.--Cerez365™(talk) 12:07, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
Kushina said that she is going to see Minato in the afterlife,but he is sealed in the death god. Is Minato in the afterlife and not in the death god?--—This unsigned comment was made by Mju (talk • contribs) .

Four Symbols Seal
why isn't kushina listed as a user of this? the viz translation stated she used it. the viz translation chapter 500 volume 53 page 2 kushina when explaining to naruto about uzushiogakure says "the shinobi of konoha's senju clan and uzushio's uzumaki clan were distant relatives. full of shinobi brimming with vitality uzushio village was also known as the village of longevity. the clanfolk excelled at sealing jutsu. but they were also a bit savage. the tetragram seal on your belly was based on a jutsu originally developed by my village. i taught it to minato , your father along with other sealing jutsu" that specifically says she can use it, though i know that viz isn't the absolute most accurate translators but still the literal translation couldn't be too far off to say she used it.184.108.40.206 (talk) 16:48, August 11, 2012 (UTC) yomiko-chan
- She's not added because of the ambiguity. Kushina said she taught Minato fūinjutsu and that the seal on Naruto's stomach was based of Uzu-styled fūinjutsu, not that she taught him the technique itself. It's possible that Minato created this technique based on what she had taught him and not that she taught him this technique specifically.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:36, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
Wind Chakra Nature

I don't think that would be a comparable instance though, an obsessive eater inhaling chips opposed to a woman blowing with enough force to splatter a cake, the latter seems less likely to be JUST comical relief. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 14:24, April 8, 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, just like her standing hair resembling tails is a jinchuriky power :-/ but well, it's likely that she might be a wind release user since Naruto also has affinity for it--Elveonora (talk) 14:41, April 8, 2013 (UTC)
Unneeded trivia
"When first introduced in the anime, her eyes were depicted as violet-blue in colour and her hair was portrayed as a deep plum colour. This was corrected however, in subsequent episodes. However, in Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations, both her first and second appearances were shown in Naruto and Minato's stories respectively."
This is completely unnecessary, even as trivia. Her hair and eyes in her first introduction aren't really colored differently so much as *slightly shaded* differently, and this is in fact SO slight that you could theoretically say it's just the lighting. If you consider something like this to be an anime error, the anime makes errors all the time. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 14:57, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Just to add to my previous comment, compare these images for reference:
Her eyes are exactly the same color here. In the flashback of her meeting Minato, her hair was shown to be the same "color" as her introduction in certain scenes as well. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 15:14, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Not the same shade of red, originally it looked almost blood red color--Elveonora (talk) 15:22, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Like I said, it depends on the lighting. Sometimes she is shown to have that same "plum red" shade in many scenes of Episodes 246 and 248, other times her hair appears much brighter whenever it is illuminated by a bigger light source. And as my comparison above shows, her eye color is clearly identical as well. Trivia should only be included when it's actually correct. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 23:18, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
I find it kinda irrelevant too, it's not like they colored her hair of entirely different color like brown or purple--Elveonora (talk) 09:46, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
afterlife 2
Currently the article and image description say that she went after Minato to the "afterlife" so first:
- there appears to be no such thing in narutoverse as afterlife, souls go to "pure land/world" and there doesn't seem to be any consciousness for them after death.
- that Kushina and Minato in Naruto were chakra creations, not real people, meaning she "dispelled" and hasn't gone anywhere--Elveonora (talk) 15:19, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
- Lets not worry about the metaphysics of life after death. She said she was going to reunite with Minato in the afterlife so lets just go with that.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 15:27, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Except she wasn't even real Kushina, so even if afterlife were true in this fiction, she couldn't have gone there... do shadow clones go to afterlife too? lol. Take into consideration that people in Narutoverse also have religions and faiths, it's false tho, the article should mention what is true, not false beliefs--Elveonora (talk) 15:30, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Not only that but also Minato was sealed in Death God's guts, not in a non-existent afterlife nor "pure land" so what she said was untrue for at least 4 reasons.--Elveonora (talk) 15:40, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Given that Kakashi meets Sakumo after his death and that souls clearly exist and go somewhere, you can't say there isn't an afterlife in Naruto. For all we know, the Edo Tensei ninja simply couldn't remember their time in the afterlife as soon as they were reincarnated in a physical body. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 23:23, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
Also, the consciousness of shadow clones goes back to their original user, so if there is indeed an afterlife, it's reasonable to presume that Kushina's "chakra clone" would go as well. It's best to just leave this as it is. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 23:53, May 5, 2013 (UTC)
I always understood it that "Sakumo" was nothing but Kakashi's dying hallucination, I recall he saw Obito there too despite him being still alive--Elveonora (talk) 09:49, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
Perhaps, but that's simply a matter of interpretation. Also, Obito was never shown there. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 07:24, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
Either I remember it wrong or it was just anime-only addition. Well, one way or another, the Kushina in Naruto was just a chakra construct/clone of sorts, the real one since long ago resides in pure land already, not to mention Minato was in Death God and she knew it--Elveonora (talk) 10:20, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Hers looks exactly like it, shouldn't we note it?--Elveonora (talk) 19:32, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
- Hers is likely to be the Four Symbols Seal --22.214.171.124 (talk) 20:22, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
- you can see 8 tips/edges around her seal too--Elveonora (talk) 20:39, May 6, 2013 (UTC)
- All possible, still speculation. We never got to see her seal unaffected by one control or the other. It could be that they used a similar looking seal (though it's always possible this was the same one used by Mito) we can't be 100% certain just yet.--Cerez365™(talk) 13:00, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
- The uzumaki seals are all pretty much similar right? but its unlikely she would of needed the 8 trigrams seal because why would she need to let out nine tails chakra everynow and then as that was not her fighting style, the place where the ninetails is present inside of her is different as to narutos when the nine tails is in naruto it can let out chakra through the gate seeing as how minato sealed it, but in kushina its alot different therefore being very unlikely as to how the ninetails would let out chakra therefore its probably the four symbols seal --ROOT 根 (talk) 13:11, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
- Using a tailed beast's power isn't anyone's fighting style until they are made jinchūriki though. That's the whole point of being a jinchūriki. As for their inner world looking different, no one ever said they all had to look the same because the same seal was used. That thing Kurama is attached to is Kushina's "unique" chakra.--Cerez365™(talk) 20:03, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Kushina's Age? (Road to Ninja)
A weird thought occured to me, but Road to Ninja features a scene with her blowing out the candles on her birthday cake. Turns out they can easily be counted when she blows apart the cake with her superstrength breath: there are 36 of them. Naruto is 16 in Part II, which means she would have been 20 years old when she died (on the day he was born). Minato's approximate age can also be extrapolated from this, as they were in the same class at the Academy. He would have been 19-21 at the time of his death. Earlier estimates based on timeline details predicted him to be 21-22, I believe, so 21 is probably most likely. Assuming the number of candles is correct, anyway... FF-Suzaku (talk) 17:31, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
Minato must have been at least around 24 because if 20 were true, that would make him 15 during Kakashi Gaiden which doesn't seem likely. Wives are usually younger than husbands, but still, I don't think it's needed to estimate her age, we know they both died young.--Elveonora (talk) 18:02, May 7, 2013 (UTC)
wait a sec
Doesn't she have like completely different hair-style from manga to anime when she is introduced to her classmates ?--Elveonora (talk) 11:32, July 16, 2013 (UTC)
- I am not sure but we should take a look at this, if there is any difference in her hair-style between manga and anime, it needs to be added to the article, do you remember what chapter was that plus episode? Dan.Faulkner (talk) 11:41, July 16, 2013 (UTC)

First I'd like to thank the makers/supporters of backtrack. Awesome.
I'm not sure where to go. Here or aircrack forums.
The Alfa AWUS036H works right out of the box.
Secondly I have a question, whats the point of having this card if you can't capture your own injected pockets. or is it only with the RTL8187 drivers?
Injections works like a charm, capturing those pockets does not work at all.
This is what I found on aircrack-ng
which is what im getting when capturing packets with airodump.Broken SKA error message
You receive "Broken SKA: <MAC address> (expected: ??, got ?? bytes)" or similar. When using the "-S" option with values different then 128, some clients fail. This message indicates the number of bytes actually received was different that the number requested. Either don't use the option or try different values of "-S" to see which one eliminates the error.
read somewhere else capturing your own packets is impossible.
Now to the point. Any solutions? maybe revering back to old drivers fixes problem?
And if not what card would you recommend to buy that supports ALL functions of aircrack suite but still has high range like the alfa or even better. Thanks

His dream elements, for instance, though Hoffmann uses the dream to as great extent as Poe—are more poignant, more unbearable.
That evening they dined out, and went to "The Tales of Hoffmann."
Hoffmann even doubts whether plants vary more under cultivation than in their native home and under their natural conditions.
I shall never forget the hour when I first read it to Hoffmann.
Hoffmann says, that the French Propaganda had many emissaries in Vienna, and many friends whom he could point out.
For this Professor Hoffmann has made the borders and ornament.
Its chiefs (Hoffmann, Poe, et al.) are classed by critics as realists.
The essential oil of the wood, dissolved in spirit, was regarded by Hoffmann as one of the best cordials and invigorants known.
General Hoffmann had placed cars at the disposal of the Russians in case they cared to drive out.
Yet the crazy musician of Hoffmann is but the elder brother of all our modern composers.

With scores of grants and contracts received since the Institute's inception in 1999, the projects implemented by IFNL are too numerous to list. Among the largest initiatives that the Institute is currently undertaking are the following:
Adolescent Dating Violence Study
IFNL is leading one of the most comprehensive studies of rural adolescent dating violence ever undertaken in the U.S. The National Institutes of Health funded study is collecting data from adolescents and a parent or caregiver, teachers, and youth service providers. Data are also being collected to characterize the adolescents' neighborhoods. The results will identify factors that influence the developmental trajectory of dating violence victimization and perpetration.
The IFNL is leading efforts in the United States to implement the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program. The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program, developed in Norway, is a comprehensive, school-wide program designed for use in elementary, middle or junior high schools and identified as one of only 11 national Blueprints for Violence Prevention by the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence at the University of Colorado.
IFNL faculty and staff are actively engaged in the development and implementation of a National Bullying Prevention Campaign. The public information campaign, targeted at "tweens" (children and youth between the ages of 9 to 13), launched national print, broadcast, and web campaign ads on March 1, 2004. Dr. Susan Limber, professor, and Dr. Joyce Ott, research assistant professor, have provided expert consultation in this national public awareness campaign: "Take A Stand. Lend A Hand. Stop Bullying Now."
Campus-wide Suicide Prevention
With funding from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services (SAMHSA), IFNL is partnering with faculty in the Department of Psychology, various Student Affairs divisions such as the Student Health Center, Healthy Campus, Counseling and Psychological Services, the Dean of Students Office, New Student and Family Programs, Residential Life, and various student representatives.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death among college students. This project will build upon Clemson's existing resources to create an enhanced and comprehensive suicide prevention approach that focuses on promoting mental health seeking and filling in gaps in resources and infrastructure.
Clemson Sustainable Community Project
The Clemson Sustainable Community Project focuses on the use of technology to improve the attitude and skills in the academic areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) and in STEM professional disciplines; of students who participate in the Boys and Girls Club After-School Program at Mary H. Wright Elementary and Chesnee Elementary Schools provide efficient access to educational resources, and provide essential technological skills for youth and adults in at-risk environments. This project is a comprehensive, intensive, community-based program developed with active citizen participation in all phases. It calls for collaboration among community partners, curriculum areas, and capacity building for sustainability, as well as a holistic approach that views the individual in the context of the family and community.
Grounded in the Principles of Positive Youth Development, Momentum Bike Clubs provides consistent mentoring support through bicycle clubs in Greenville County to middle and high school youth. Young people and adults learn to repair and maintain bikes and build stamina and friendships as they explore roads and trails on bikes. Some outings are riding for the sake of riding while others are to a specific destination, such as a tour of a museum or a radio station. Exposure to healthy nutrition and active lifestyles are proven ways of enhancing physical, emotional, and intellectual development. All youth need supportive people in their lives. Momentum Bike Clubs seeks to provide that, one pedal turn at a time.
Suicide Prevention among Youth
IFNL faculty has been awarded Distinguished Investigator funding by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention to investigate the epidemiology of suicidal trajectories in youth transitioning to adulthood. Little is known about how suicide risk changes over the course of emerging adulthood. This project will use data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health to determine how suicide risk changes over the span of 13 years and what risk and protective factors predict these trajectories. These findings will provide an empirically and theoretically-supported basis for targeted suicide prevention programs.
IFNL faculty and staff have been engaged in guiding an increasingly visible agenda to build a South Carolina system of quality child care and early education. Activities include: enhancing the professional development system; building a system of technical assistance for caregivers with a strong evaluation component; guiding the development of early care and education core knowledge and competencies; structuring a system of child care standards reimbursements. Although much of the work relates to state policies and programs, IFNL has also led in the development and facilitation of a group in the tri-county area whose mission is to educate civic and business leaders on the importance of quality environments for young children.
Growing Foods Locally seeks to change traditional thinking about community food assistance by clustering small-scale farm operations with a selected group of emergency food assistance providers (i.e., called a micro-economic agricultural clustering approach) with the goal of enhancing the amount of nutritional food items available to the poor. It also seeks to alter the food handling, preparation and consumption behaviors of emergency food assistance providers and consumers.
In collaboration with national and local partners, IFNL has undertaken a series of projects in South Carolina's Lowcountry to strengthen the capacity of youth serving organizations and create a comprehensive, coordinated youth development system. The projects included the ABCs of Youth Work, a survey of program directors and front line staff members of organizations serving out-of-school children and youth; Advancing Youth Development Professional Training and BEST Network Partner, a series of training sessions for youth workers in out-of-school programs; and Building a Youth Development System, an effort to create a coordinated youth development system across four lowcountry counties.
The SC Rural Communities Compassion Project, a grant from the U.S. Administration for Children and Families, provided sub-awards and technical assistance to faith- and community-based organizations in South Carolina. The SC Center on Grassroots and Nonprofit Leadership, a center of the IFNL, implemented the Compassion project, which included technical assistance to the state in the form of informative workshops, funding resources, one-on-one skills training, distance learning events, and web resources.
IFNL has collaborated with the Chesterfield County Coordinating Council (CCCC) on three projects intended to enhance the capacity of organizations and institutions in Chesterfield County to improve the well-being of young people and their families. The Substance Abuse/Mental Health Rural Planning Project undertook a two-year effort to identify the service needs and obstacles to service for people with severe emotional disturbance and their families, and to develop a strategic plan to strengthen the service infrastructure. The Stop the Violence Project was a two-year effort to increase awareness of violence against girls and young women and to implement a targeted prevention and intervention program. Drug Free Chesterfield is a five-year project to strengthen the capacity of community organizations and institutions to prevent substance use among young people and to develop a County-wide coalition to plan and implement substance abuse prevention strategies and improve the well-being of young people and their families.
Safe Families is an initiative that provides community support for families and children. Today, far too many families lack the strong network of support necessary to stay afloat during times of crisis and need. Safe Families acts as a safety net, supporting families who are experiencing a challenging situation and who are temporarily unable to meet the needs of their children.
Strong Communities, a long-term effort supported by The Duke Endowment to design, implement, and evaluate a comprehensive effort to prevent child abuse and neglect in communities in southern Greenville County and adjoining sections of Anderson and Laurens counties. This effort represents the largest grant ever received by Clemson University in the social, behavioral, and health sciences. Unlike most of the comprehensive community initiatives to prevent child abuse and neglect, the strategy is to build community itself, not merely to foster collaboration among community organizations. To our knowledge, Strong Communities for Children is the first effort fully to implement the Neighbors Helping Neighbors strategy proposed by the U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect in 1993. More than 4,500 volunteers have been mobilized throughout the service area to prevent child abuse and neglect.

PROVIDENCE, RI (PRWEB) October 26, 2012
ThinkSpace, a major new exhibit exploring spatial thinking, opens at Providence Children's Museum on Saturday, November 10. This dynamic environment will invite visitors to explore, imagine, create and experiment with shape and space through hands-on play and learning experiences.
Spatial thinking is part of everyday life and is necessary to navigate, explore and survive in the world. People think spatially all the time – when tying shoes, reading maps, finding the way to the store, packing a suitcase, doing jigsaw puzzles, climbing rocks and cutting sandwiches in half – and they become better with practice. Spatial thinkers are architects designing buildings, pilots flying planes, doctors reading x-rays, plumbers installing pipes, bakers decorating cakes, geologists studying fossils and artists painting landscapes.
Spatial thinking is a powerful problem-solving tool and a key to kids' interest and success in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) disciplines. While spatial thinking develops over a lifetime, research suggests that early development of spatial thinking skills increases later achievement in math and science – and that, for young children, hands-on experiences are especially important. However, though kids learn the basics of shape and space, spatial thinking isn't systematically taught in schools.
ThinkSpace will get Children's Museum visitors thinking spatially with plenty of fun-filled opportunities for interactive play and exploration:
- Navigate mystery maze boxes using the senses to guide a ball through hidden twists and turns, and map the path it traveled.
- Create intricate kaleidoscopic designs by layering, ordering and rotating colorful cutout shapes in countless combinations.
- Experiment with shadows and scale, transforming 3-D objects into 2-D representations and creating imaginative shadow scenes.
- Solve the soma cube, a giant 3-D puzzle, by fitting together seven pieces to form a cube. Find one or more of 240 separate solutions!
- Construct domino chain reactions, negotiating spacing and alignment to topple series of spirals and zigzags.
- Explore a nook stocked with books about shape, navigation, and visual and spatial challenges.
- And try other vibrant puzzles, challenges, building activities, and more!
ThinkSpace opening celebration at Providence Children's Museum, Saturday, November 10 - Monday, November 12 from 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM; free with $9.00 Museum admission. For more information, visit http://www.ChildrenMuseum.org.
ThinkSpace is supported by lead sponsor National Grid, with additional support from June Rockwell Levy Foundation.
Providence Children's Museum – play is powerful!
The Museum is located at 100 South Street in Providence's Jewelry District. September through March, open Tuesday through Sunday and Monday school holidays, 9 AM to 6 PM, and selected Fridays until 8 PM. April through August, open 7 days. Museum admission is $9.00 per person; always free for Museum members. Call (401) 273-KIDS or visit http://www.ChildrenMuseum.org.

Twins Prospect Primer: Bet on Buxton
Game's top prospect poses five-tool threat ready for upper levels
By Jake Seiner / MiLB.com | March 29, 2014 11:00 AM ET
Some players are on the verge of stardom, others are entering a crucial phase of their development and still others are getting their first tastes of full-season ball. With the 2014 season approaching, MiLB.com takes a look at the most intriguing prospects from each MLB organization.
Shining star: Byron Buxton, OF
Buxton is the top prospect in the game, and the gap between him and the field is notable. For a player yet to reach Double-A, the outfielder looks like a remarkably sure bet to succeed in the Majors.
His defense is outstanding, with Fort Myers manager Doug Mientkiewicz invoking Torii Hunter's name in describing Buxton's ability. Offensively, he's coming off a season in which he hit .334 with a .424 on-base percentage and 49 extra-base hits. He swiped 55 bases, and also used his speed to rack up an eye-popping 18 triples.
The 20-year-old is a five-tool talent with remarkable polish, and yet the first thing everybody talks about is his makeup. Mature, heady and motivated, Buxton could rocket to the Majors by year's end, though the safer bet is to anticipate a 2015 arrival.
The outfielder got his first extended look at Major League pitching in Spring Training this year, picking up some valuable lessons that should benefit him when he begins the season in Double-A.
"I found the game to be a lot faster," Buxton said. "The more that I played, the more at-bats I got, the more it started slowing down. Learned a lot from everybody. Just trying to take in as much information as I can to help improve my game."
Breakout prospect: Max Kepler, OF
The Berlin native has a fascinating back story, but the tale of his 2013 season was mostly disappointing. A Spring Training elbow injury derailed what should have been a full season with Class A Cedar Rapids. Though he returned midseason, the 6-foot-4 outfielder never found his stroke.
Which isn't to say his stroke was lost. Kepler is a physically impressive athlete with size and strength in spades. He mashed in the Rookie-level Appalachian League in 2012 and flashed those offensive talents despite his struggles in '13. The 21-year-old could develop into a complete hitter with power, and the Twins are hoping good health will let that happen this season.
Kepler is competing this spring to begin the year with Class A Advanced Fort Myers, and he looked like a good bet to do so midway through Spring Training. One thing the Twins are hoping to see is more aggression at the plate, especially against left-handed hurlers.
"You get a fastball to hit, you have to take advantage of it," Twins director of Minor League operations Brad Steil said. "Hanging in vs. lefties. We want to see him improve vs. lefties. It's something we've seen him do in the past, but as you move up and face better pitching, it becomes more of a focus to make sure he's in the lineup against those types of guys."
At the crossroads: Trevor May, RHP
At 24, May's career isn't quite at a make-or-break point just yet. Even if he doesn't develop any further, his raw stuff should be good enough to hold down a Major League bullpen job, which counts for something. But for a hurler with May's stuff and size, anything less than a rotation role might be seen as a disappointment for Twins fans.
May is 6-foot-5, 215 pounds with the frame to handle a heavy workload. His fastball has plenty of zip, his changeup is an above-average offering and both his curve and slider flash swing-and-miss potential.
The issue has been control. May walked 10.2 percent of hitters with Double-A New Britain last season in his second full year in the Eastern League. That rate was down slightly from the year before, but still too wild to project Major League rotation success.
The big right-hander did show better command in the Arizona Fall League, along with a better changeup. May will need those improvements to jump with him to Triple-A this season if he's going to stay in Minnesota's long-term rotation plans.
"For him to get better, it's going to be pitching down in the zone with his fastball," Steil said. "When he gets in trouble, he leaves the ball up above the belt. He's just got to make sure he's staying on top of the ball and pitching down in the zone. If he does that, he'll see results."
More to keep an eye on: Cedar Rapids is going to be a fun affiliate in 2014 thanks to a stacked rotation that at various points could include Kohl Stewart, Jose Berrios, Lewis Thorpe (featured here), Aaron Slegers, Randy Rosario, Fernando Romero, Stephen Gonsalves and Felix Jorge, all of whom either are legitimate starting pitching prospects or could be in short order. ... The Twins will try to find out whether Jorge Polanco is a long-term solution at shortstop by letting him play the position more with Class A Advanced Fort Myers -- Polanco played a little more second than short with the Cedar Rapids in '13. ... Polanco's biggest organizational competition, Danny Santana, made big strides defensively in '13 -- Steil estimated that 20 of his 32 errors came in the first two months of the season, and gave the infielder rave reviews for the rest of the campaign.

End of the day we basically need to show people want to jailbreak their iPads! Specially when you consider most iPads are bought out right and not paid for by a net work!
You should read the full 69 pages
It done because the iPad is a tablet
And there are other tablets that than just iPad so ruling was to make sure jailbreak developers do not make jailbreaks for other tablets because some may jailbreaking all tablets
Is legal but is not legal just idvices
But not iPads
This is why EULA, TOS, etc on consumer level products like software, games, and such are legally bogus, since they are presented AFTER the point of purchase. And no, this is NOT the same as the so called "shrink-wrap" license agreements, when in and of themselves have always been legally questionable. The only time such "you-don't-own-it" type licensing really becomes meaningful is when you have a REAL contract, such as for business level software et al, when an actual contract is signed as part of the purchase itself, not just an EULA shown afterwords when you load it up.
So now, together with the increasingly difficult to exploit platform now this legal hoo-hah, its even less incentive for the devs to release a jailbreak.
There is a solution worst case scenario: Tablet jailbreak/rooting goes underground. shared on peer-to-peer platforms etc
It doesn't matter if you don't care. If the devs don't do it. we're out of luck. Unless you're a developer yourself. Many devs (who are situated in the US) will not release the hacks illegally.
hmmmmmm....after heavily investing in apps and tweaks, (App Store & Cydia) I'm now stuck on the inferior iOS platform (it can't do flash people!). I'm really hoping this all blows over. because if I can't jailbreak I'd have to jump to Android. I like my freedom!

Brevard, N.C. - Jamie Atkinson had the best game of her career for the Tornados as the junior outside hitter recorded her first collegiate triple-double with a game-high 15 kills, 10 set assists and 13 digs, but Whitney Brinkley led the Bears with 15 kills as Lenoir-Rhyne topped the Tornados in Boshamer Gymnasium on Tuesday night, 25-20, 21-25, 25-14, 25-12.
Ashlie Morrison added 11 kills for Brevard (4-14, 0-11 SAC), while Bethany Stevenson set up the attack with 32 assists as the Tornados hit 15.6 percent from the floor in the game. Lindsey Rogers led the backline with a season high 25 digs and Kortney Conner added 10, while Taryn Gmitroski and Atkinson each recorded five blocks in the match as the Tornados fell in conference action.
Haley Rhyne and Kayla Morrow were also in double figures in the kills category for Lenoir-Rhyne (12-9, 4-6 SAC), while Meredith Lutz added a game-high 44 set assists. Four players were in double-digits in digs, led by Emily Culler's team high 16, while Joanna Whitmire, Morrow and Chelsea Hill all had five blocks in the match.
The Tornados took control of the net halfway through the first set as Gmitroski and Atkinson combined to block three consecutive L-R attacks to go up 14-10. Lenoir-Rhyne battled back, tying the match at 19 apiece on combined block by Morrow and Lutz during 7-0 run as the Bears went up 24-19. Morrow put the ball away two points later to give L-R the 25-20 set victory.
Brevard recorded the first four points of the second set behind kills by Atkinson and Morrison and a service ace by Stevenson on their way to building a 13-10 lead. The Bears battled back, tying the match at 14 apiece on a service ace by Morrow, but the Tornados again went back up by three on a Morrison kill at 20-17. The Bears again rallied, cutting it back to within two at 23-21, but the Tornados were able to put it away on an Atkinson service ace to even the score after the 25-21 victory.
The Bears jumped out to a 19-9 lead in the pivotal third set on their way to the 25-14 victory behind six kills by Rhyne and continued their hot streak in the fourth set, recording 13 of the first 14 points before an Atkinson kill ended the run. The Tornados continued to fight throughout the match, but back-to-back kills by Brinkley closed out the match in the Bears' favor, 25-12.
Brevard remains in South Atlantic Conference action as they travel to Newberry, S.C. on Friday, October 14th. First serve between the Tornados and the Wolves is set for 6:30 p.m.

Bone marrow aspirationIliac crest tap; Sternal tap
Bone marrow is the soft tissue inside bones that helps form blood cells. It is found in the hollow part of most bones. Bone marrow aspiration is the removal of a small amount of this tissue in liquid form for examination.
See also:
How the Test is Performed
Bone marrow aspiration may be done in the health care provider's office or in a hospital. The bone marrow will be removed from your pelvic or breast bone. Occasionally, another bone is selected.
The health care provider will clean the skin and apply a numbing medicine (local anesthesia) to the area and surface of the bone. Next, a special needle is inserted into the bone. The needle has a tube attached to it, which creates suction. A small sample of bone marrow fluid flows into the tube. The needle is removed.
The bone marrow fluid is examined under a microscope.
How to Prepare for the Test
Tell the health care provider:
- If you are allergic to any medications
- If you are pregnant
- If you have bleeding problems
- What medications you are taking
You must sign a consent form for the procedure.
How the Test Will Feel
You will feel a sting and slight burning sensation when the numbing medicine is applied. You may feel pressure as the needle is inserted into the bone, and a sharp and usually painful sucking sensation as the marrow is removed. This feeling lasts for only a few seconds.
On rare occasions, patients are given medicine to help them relax before this procedure.
Why the Test is Performed
Your doctor may order this test if you have abnormal types or numbers of red or white blood cells or platelets on a complete blood count. This test is used to diagnose:
- Anemia (some types)
- Infections
- Leukemia
- Other blood disorders
It may help determine whether cancers have spread or responded to treatment.
Normal Results
The bone marrow should contain the proper number and types of:
- Blood-forming (hematopoietic) cells
- Connective tissues
- Fat cells
What Abnormal Results Mean
Abnormal results may be due to cancers of the bone marrow, including:
- Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
- Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)
- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
- Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML)
Abnormal results may also be due to:
- Disseminated bacterial or fungal infections
- Hodgkin's disease
- Lymphoma (Non-hodgkin's)
- Multiple myeloma
- Myelofibrosis
- Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
- Primary thrombocytopenia
- Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia
This test may help detect the causes of:
- Aplastic anemia
- Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)
There may be some bleeding at the puncture site. More serious risks, such as serious bleeding or infection, are very rare.
This test is often performed when there are problems with various types of blood cells. The person may be at increased risk for bleeding, infection, or other problems.

WATCH: Beyonce duets with blind girl at Australia concert
Listen to Beyonce on iHeartRadio
Beyonce continues to be all sorts of amazing on her "Mrs. Carter Show" world tour.
Over the weekend, the pop star paused her show in Perth, Australia to sing a duet with a 13-year-old blind fan named Sophie.
Beyonce and Sophie, who also has hearing and muscle difficulties, performed "Irreplaceable" in front of an audience of 15,000.
Last week, the singer FaceTime chatted on a crowd member's phone, and before that, she hilariously photo bombed a fan in the audience.

Facebook unwraps new Gifts service
SAN MATEO, Calif. -- Facebook is hoping social-gift giving will be a revenue gift that keeps on giving.
On Thursday, the social-networking giant unwrapped Facebook Gifts, a new service that will eventually let its more than 950 million members exchange gifts from their profiles. Starbucks, Magnolia Bakery and 1-800-Flowers are among Facebook's 100 launch partners.
Facebook's online commerce move comes as Wall Street grows restless for increased revenue from the social network, which faces slackening advertising revenue.
Gifts, which will be available through Facebook's site and Android app, is being pushed out randomly to a small slice of Facebook users in the U.S. An iPhone app is expected to come within weeks.
Online gift-giving could prop up Facebook's renewed push for mobile advertising and revenue.
"It's a good signal that they are experimenting with ways to monetize their user base," says Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter.
Facebook's ease of allowing friends to send gift cards has strong rivalry from the likes of Amazon.com, he points out.
The service is the result of Facebook's May acquisition of Karma, a social-gift giving company, for an undisclosed amount.
"It is the heart and soul of Karma reimagined within Facebook," says Lee Linden, head of product for Gifts.
Investors have put pressure on Facebook to ramp up revenues. Shares of Facebook have been sliced by more than half following its star-crossed IPO. Facebook stock traded 1.5% lower at $20.32 on Thursday but rebounded 1.2% to $20.56 in after-hours trading following the news. That's down from a 52-week high of $45.
Facebook's foray into such social commerce has been long expected. The company last week said it would begin charging businesses for promoting Offers deals on the site. The deals, similar to those offered by Groupon, would allow the social network to take 40% to 50% of a merchant's deal offer.
"I don't think it's a big business yet, but it will be," says Pachter, adding that Facebook doesn't have to pay the high marketing expenses that Groupon does to get its offers in front of people.
Last month, eMarketer revised downward its revenue forecast for Facebook by $1 billion for 2012, saying marketers continue to question the effectiveness of ads on the social network.
The researcher forecasts that Google will beat out Facebook in display advertising this year.

Herald staff
EVERETT — Investigators think a Bellevue man was high on heroin and speeding along Highway 529 when his truck rolled Friday evening, ejecting a passenger.
The man, 54, is being held for investigation of vehicular homicide and being involved in a hit-and-run crash. No charges have been filed.
So far, no details have been released about his passenger, other than that he was tossed through a window of a Ford Explorer after it struck a guard rail and rolled. He died at the scene, his body coming to rest in the highway.
The Bellevue man now in the Snohomish County Jail is believed to have been driving the Explorer. He's being held on $75,000 bail.
Witnesses said the vehicle was speeding and weaving along northbound Highway 529 before striking the guard rail. It rolled and came to rest on its tires.
The driver tried to leave but crashed a second time a short distance away, police were told. When officers reached him, he had a deep cut on his left arm, along with and bumps and bruises.
The man said he was not in pain, and had difficulty remaining awake, according to the police report. Officers sought a blood draw at the hospital, suspecting him of being under the influence of heroin.
Police initially believed the driver was in his 40s and from Ocean Shores.
