message: This is an interesting news item that I read today: Spookfish uses mirrors for eyes  It appears that the four-eyed spookfish to be the first vertebrate ever found to use mirrors, rather than lenses, to focus light in its eyes.  Note the article contains a link to the magazine/journal current biology.Kgrr (talk) 19:35, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably resulting from the above, this article currently states that the said Spookfish is the only vertebrate that "uses mirrors in its eyes" [sic]. However, the well known tapetum lucidum is clearly a use of a mirror in eyes, though not for focussing: I will therefore amend this article to include the specification of focussing, as the Spookfish's own article already does. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.193.78.36 (talk) 16:28, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Chang Jiang (motorcycle)

message: "Qian jiang" (modern Pinyin) or "Chang Jiang" (Wade Giles) (钱江) is a common Chinese name for businesses and products, it being one of the names of the Yangtze River. (unsigned comment)
"Qian" and "chang" are not different transcriptions of the same sound in various Pinyins, but stand for different sounds. An older "chang" could be written "chang" or "zhang" in modern Pinyin, but the modern "qian" could have been "chien" before (to cut a tiny piece out of a complex matter). The second character "jiang" we talk of means river in both cases, yet Qian Jiang is short for Qiantang River, (), while the long river, known to the west as Yangtze River or Yangtze-Kiang, is . Spot it? Right! Kiang = Jiang! Err, did I mention that transcription of Chinese is a bit complex?
So now, there are two independent motorcycle makers who decided to name their vehicles after a river (two different rivers, you remember). Both happen to be Chinese, so the rivers they chose are in China. (Btw i read the below mentioned article about different companies making the same Chang Jiang 750, and there is no mentioning of the completely different Qianjiang bikes.) --203.79.252.193 15:29, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The Chang Jiang Motorworks article fails to properly discuss that there were several companies making the Chang Jiang motorcycle. Better to merge the articles under the Chang Jiang Motorcycle heading which is a more suitable heading.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.206.103.188 (talk • contribs).

The heading needs to be changed to Chang Jiang motorcycle as a minimum. The Zhuzhou XJ750 is also often sold as a "Chang Jiang" though more correctly it's a "Xiang Jiang" M-72 02:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

message: After a day's work by three different editors, this is no longer a stub! Things that could still be done:
* A decent map of the area, showing river names and catchments, especially where this species was once found and has disappeared since being first described.
* Some discussion of the effect of koaro in part of their range
* The size of the area occupied not in square kilometres but in kilometres of stream, which makes much more sense.

:*Correction Note** 
  
:**With all due respect i'd like to make a correction on the above information for histories sake.I've lived in this area for 45 years and studied it's past history for most of that time.I played at the train depot/station as a young kid and I can assure you that the depot has been gone for many years,torn down in the early to mid 1970's as I recall,it's no longer here as is the case with most of the historical buildings in this area,very few are left.The station which housed one of Lithia's very first Post Office buildings was at the corner of Lithia Pinecrest Rd. and Boyette Rd..It sat between Boyette Rd. and where the old train tracks ran,which was the west side of Boyette Rd. directly across the street from what is currently Formaggio's Pizza as of this date of Mar.27,2012 ...hope this helps clarify it's location.**
