Child Abduction Is Not Funny

"Child Abduction Is Not Funny" is the 90th episode of the Comedy Central series South Park. It originally aired on July 24, 2002. This episode mocks kidnapping, moral panics, and the Mongol conquest of China. The episode was also the last to feature Tweek as the "fourth friend" alongside Stan, Kyle and Cartman.

In the episode, the parents of South Park hire the owner and operator of the local City Wok, Mr. Tuong Lu Kim, to build a Great Wall around the city to protect their children from kidnappers. Just as Mr. Tuong Lu Kim almost finishes the wall, Mongolians arrive to try to break through. When a study reveals that nine out of ten abduction cases are committed by the mother or the father, the parents send their kids out on their own, so they won't have a fear of being kidnapped by their parents.

In the summer of 2013, fans voted "Child Abduction Is Not Funny" as the best episode of Season 6.

Plot
With the media full of school shootings, terrorist threats, and child abductions, the parents of South Park grow excessively concerned about the safety of their children. Tweek is scared the most by the media reports, and his parents serve only to exacerbate his fears by turning their house into a virtual prison and playing cruel intellectual games with him designed by intention to increase his safety. As a result, Tweek loses his ability to empathize with others – even refusing to assist a crippled person, whose powerchair ran out of battery power, and is now stuck on some train tracks, resulting in him getting killed by an oncoming train. After a real child abductor (pretending to be the "Ghost of Human Kindness") fails to kidnap Tweek, the parents of South Park are put on high alert.

Taking advantage of expensive technology, the City commissions the owner of City Wok, Mr. Lu Kim to build a huge wall around the city, similar to the Great Wall of China. Media reports continue to file in — it first convinces them they should not leave their children alone for a moment, prompting the parents to go with them anywhere they go. A later report convinces them they cannot even trust their own neighbors and family friends, forcing the parents to sever ties with each other. The kids, annoyed and embarrassed by their parents' actions, initially blame Tweek for their parents' paranoia, but soon decide that they'd have inevitably resorted to something this stupid eventually.

Despite trying to avoid being a stereotype and having no experience in construction, Mr. Kim reluctantly agrees to build the wall. He builds a very impressive one single-handedly. After he is finished, a band of Mongols appear out of nowhere and attack the wall because: "Every time us Chinese put up a wall stupid Mongorianzh have to come and knock it down," as he puts it, in a reference to Chinese history. Although he tries desperately to rout the enemy by himself, he proves to be no match for the Mongols' increasingly clever tactics, which include redirecting a heat-seeking missile with a flaming baseball and making use of a Trojan Horse filled with sweet and sour pork. Enraged, Kim vows vengeance for the rest of his life.

Meanwhile, back within the town, a news report states that the parents are most likely to abduct their own children. Blindly believing what they have been told, they send their children from the city in a tearful ceremony in order to avoid putting their children in danger of being kidnapped by their own parents. As they leave, the children wonder about how stupid their parents are sometimes.

Within the week, the children join forces with the Mongols, having apparently learned their language, and expressing anger at their parents' irresponsible and irrational behavior, even though the Mongolians weren't here in South Park to abduct all the children of South Park, they just wanted to have them to become part of their group to break down the city wall. The Mongols then move on the wall again, where Mr. Kim is dressed for battle. He then does his "war dance", but while he is doing this, the children wheel a large cart laden with explosives in behind him and blow up the wall. The parents arrive to investigate the explosion, and are reunited with their kids. They realize that they overreacted to the news stories, and that to cut themselves off from the rest of the world with the wall denies new possibilities. Mayor McDaniels orders Mr. Lu Kim to "tear down this wall," angering him once more since building the wall was a waste of time. Despite the reunion, the parents believe their children have forgotten them in the short space of four days and use simple English to convince them to return home (with Stan muttering to Kyle, "Jesus Christ, dude, they've done some stupid crap before, but Jesus Christ.").

Production
According to the DVD commentary, the episode was done right after the creators saw the Elizabeth Smart abduction in Utah on the news. Parker and Stone came up with the line "Goddamn Mongorianzh, no more breaking down my shitty warr!" while on the Great Wall of China in the 1990s.

Cultural references
When Mr. Kim gets ready to shoot the heat seeking missile, he introduces it to the Mongolians, saying "Say herro to my rittre friend." This is a reference to the movie Scarface. Mayor McDaniels' line "Mr. Lu Kim, tear down this wall!" is a reference to Ronald Reagan's 1987 speech challenging Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin Wall. When the child abductor dressed as the Ghost of Human Kindness is caught by the police, he says "and I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling policemen" a reference to Scooby-Doo, in which when the episode's antagonist (who would disguise themselves as a monster) was unmasked, would use the phrase but with "meddling kids" instead of "meddling policemen".

Home media
"Child Abduction Is Not Funny", along with the sixteen other episodes from South Park's sixth season, were released on a three-disc DVD set in the United States on October 11, 2005. The sets included brief audio commentaries by Parker and Stone for each episode. IGN gave the season a rating of 9/10.

Beverly Hills railway station

Beverly Hills railway station is a heritage-listed station located on the East Hills line, serving the Sydney suburb of Beverly Hills in New South Wales, Australia. The station is served by Sydney Trains T8 Airport & South line services. The station was designed and built by the NSW Government Railways. It was originally known as Dumbleton Railway Station. The property was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999 as part of the Beverly Hills Railway Station group structures.

Beverly Hills is unique amongst original East Hills Line stations as it is the only station with asymmetrical platforms, that is, Platform 1 is curved but Platform 2 is straight. It was one of the last stations in Sydney to use Edmondson-style paper tickets.

History
The first European settlement in the area was the establishment of a farm known as "Dumbleton" in the 1830s. The area south of the railway line was part of John Townson's 250 acre grant of 1810. The area remained semi-rural until the construction of the East Hills line and the railway station. The main impetus for the construction of the East Hills line was from the real estate industry, which wanted to develop the area where the line was proposed. However construction of the line was delayed, and it became an unemployment relief project during the course of its construction due to the onset of the Great Depression.

"The Public Works Committee recommended the line to State Parliament in August, 1924, expecting a small operating profit and opening up good building land. The debate on the Bill to construct the line took only 15 minutes after it was introduced at 5.12am on 17 December 1924, and the Governors assent given on 23 December, but no funds were provided. Just before the State elections in 1927, the Premier, Jack Lang, performed the "Turning of the First Sod" ceremony at Padstow on 3 September 1927, but he lost the election. However, the new non-labour government in April 1928, instructed the Railways Commissioners to commence work on the line."

Jack Lang was Premier for two periods: the first from June 1925 to October 1927, the second period (during the Depression) from October 1930 to May 1932. Lang was therefore again Premier when he officially opened the East Hills line at Padstow Railway Station in 1931, with the section as far as Kingsgrove being a double track electrified line.

All platform buildings on the East Hills line were built to the same general design and plan, which was revised after initial planning to include a booking office, Station Master's office and parcels office. The platform at Beverly Hills is unique on the line by having the "down" side straight and the "up" side curved. Beverly Hills station opened on 21 December 1931 as Dumbleton when the line was extended from Kingsgrove to East Hills.

The line was electrified from Kingsgrove in 1939 and duplicated in 1948. The suburb of Dumbleton was renamed Beverly Hills in 1940, and the railway station adopted the new name from 24 August that same year.

In the post war period of the 1940s and 1950s migrant hostels and housing commission estates were developed in suburbs along the line. In 1987 the East Hills terminus was connected to the Main Southern Line at Glenfield Junction.

Although the original terminus building at East Hills Station was demolished in 1987, the remainder of the East Hills Line from Turrella to Panania is the only line in Sydney with all platform buildings extant from its original construction phase (though some have been altered).

In 2002 a lift to the platform was built along with steel awning that covered the stairs and extended to the building from street level. The station has the distinction of being one of the last in Sydney to sell "Edmondson" card type tickets.

Construction work was underway in 2009 to upgrade the East Hills line generally following quadruplification of the line. In 2013, as part of the quadruplication of the line from Kingsgrove to Revesby, through lines were added on either side of the existing pair.

Transport links
Transit Systems operates one bus route via Beverly Hills station, under contract to Transport for NSW:
 * 493: Roselands Shopping Centre to Rockdale station via Kingsgrove, Bexley North and Bexley

U-Go Mobility operates two bus routes via Beverly Hills station, under contract to Transport for NSW:
 * 450: Strathfield station to Hurstville via Belfield, Lakemba and Roselands
 * 452: to Rockdale station via Hurstville, Forest Road and Bexley

Beverly Hills station is served by one NightRide route:
 * N20: Riverwood station to Town Hall station via Narwee, Rockdale and Airport

Description
The complex comprises a type 13 platform building, completed in 1931; the platform, also completed in 1931; the King Georges Road Overbridge, completed in 1931; and the stairs, lift, and platform canopy, completed in 2007.

The station has one island platform with entry via sets of stairs on the east and west sides of the King Georges Road overbridge, which enter the west end of the platform. The west end of the platform extends under the road overbridge. The station perimeter is defined with white powder coated aluminium fencing.
 * Context

Exterior: A rectangular dark face brick platform building of standard stretcher bond brickwork, of 5 bays length (note most platform buildings on this line are 5 bays), with the bays defined by simple brick engaged piers. The building has a brick stepped parapet at the east end only. The roof is gabled at the east end against the parapet at this end, is hipped over awnings to north and south which are an integral part of the roof form, and is hipped at the western end. Roof cladding is corrugated steel. The stepped parapet at the east end features a projecting moulded brick capping course and 3 vertical lines of projecting decorative brickwork, as well as a pair of rectangular timber louvred vents.
 * Platform building (1931)

When planned, a hipped roof wrapped around a stepped parapet at the western end (similar to that at Bexley North). The roof was originally clad with corrugated fibro asbestos sheeting with terra cotta ridge capping. This has been replaced with a corrugated steel roof with a fully hipped end, and it is presumed that (as at Padstow) the original stepped parapet at the east end elevation has been demolished. Two windows have been bricked up. There are timber framed fixed obscure glass windows- the windows are modern, the timber frames original. There are modern timber flush doors. There are bullnosed brick sills to windows, shallow brick arches above doors and windows, stop chamfered brickwork to door and window openings. Windows are timber-framed double-hung, some with original 6-paned top sashes, or small timber framed windows with frameless glass or glass louvres. Original door openings have grey terrazzo thresholds. There are modern fibre cement sheet ceilings to the awnings. There is an aluminium framed glazed panel to the ticket window at the entry end of the platform.

Interior: The building interior (following extension in 1950) comprised a combined booking/parcels office (now also the Station Master's room), ladies toilets, waiting room and men's toilets. The interior fitout has been refurbished in 1998 and again in 2004.

One island platform, asphalt surface, original brick faces.
 * Platform (1931)

A platform canopy structure on steel posts with concrete bases extends from the entry steps at the western end of the platform to the western end of the platform building. A modern lift, stairs and canopies over the stairs.
 * Stairs, lift and platform canopy (2007)

Original jack arched bridge with modern concrete girders. Original brick abutments and central brick pier remain. Span reconstruction c. 1960s.
 * King Georges Road overbridge (1931)

Condition
The platform building, completed in 1931, is assessed in good condition; the platform, also erected in 1931, is also in good condition; the King Georges Road Overbridge, completed in 1931, is in good condition; and the stairs, lift and platform canopy, completed in 2007, are assessed as being in very good condition.

The platform building has retained a moderate degree of integrity externally, however one of its parapets has been demolished and some openings bricked up. The platform entry arrangements and interior of the platform building have also been modernised 2004–2007. The King Georges Road overbridge is also considerably altered. This is one of the least intact of the East Hills line stations (with a similar level of alteration to Padstow).

Modifications and dates

 * 1948: line duplicated.
 * 1950: Extension to platform building to create a combined booking and parcels office, matching brickwork.
 * c. 1960s: Span reconstruction to 1931 King Georges Road overbridge.
 * 1998: interior fitout alterations to 1931 platform building
 * 2004–2007: Interior fitout alterations to 1931 platform building. New stairs, canopies and lift.
 * undated: The platform building has been re-roofed in corrugated steel (roofing originally fibro asbestos corrugated sheeting with terracotta ridge capping) and its east end stepped parapet has been demolished. A number of window openings have been bricked up. New timber flush doors. Modern ticket window.

Heritage listing
As at 30 November 2010, Beverly Hills Railway Station – including the 1931 platform and platform building and King Georges Road overbridge – has historical significance as a major public work completed as an unemployment relief project during the Great Depression, and as a major transport hub for the suburb of Beverly Hills since 1931. Beverly Hills railway station platform building is of aesthetic significance as an austere 1930s railway building with simple Art Deco detailing and fine brick workmanship that is evocative of the effects of the Depression on building programs for large organisations such as the NSW railways. Beverly Hills Railway Station is representative of the cohesive collection of ten East Hills line railway stations from Turrella to East Hills.

Beverly Hills railway station was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999 having satisfied the following criteria.

The place is important in demonstrating the course, or pattern, of cultural or natural history in New South Wales.

Beverly Hills Railway Station is of historical significance as part of the East Hills line, a major Depression period public work undertaken under the controversial Premiership of Jack Lang, and through its relationship to the development of the suburb of Beverly Hills and the broader East Hills region. The austere design of the platform building is reflective of the completion of the East Hills line as a Depression period unemployment relief works project.

The place is important in demonstrating aesthetic characteristics and/or a high degree of creative or technical achievement in New South Wales.

Beverly Hills Railway Station platform building is of aesthetic significance as an example of a small Inter-War period suburban railway station platform building matching other East Hills line platform buildings in design and style. The building is very austere in style, with Inter-War Art Deco style touches and is competently executed, exhibiting fine workmanship in its brickwork. The building is noted for its use of monochromatic brickwork, one extant stepped parapet, irregular fenestration and engaged piers.

The place has a strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group in New South Wales for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.

The place has the potential to contribute to the local community's sense of place, and can provide a connection to the local community's past.

The place has potential to yield information that will contribute to an understanding of the cultural or natural history of New South Wales.

Beverly Hills Railway Station is of research significance for its ability to demonstrate design and construction techniques of the Depression period (early 1930s). The building provides insights into NSW Railways experimentation with styles of architecture and adaptation to Depression period economic conditions.

The place possesses uncommon, rare or endangered aspects of the cultural or natural history of New South Wales.

The Beverly Hills Railway Station platform building is not rare, as it is part of a group of ten similar to identical Inter-War suburban railway buildings completed in 1931 between Turrella and East Hills.

The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a class of cultural or natural places/environments in New South Wales.

Beverly Hills Railway Station is a representative example of an East Hills line railway station, with the platform intact and platform building extant but altered, however with modern platform access structures.

Son Gohan
I'm not in the mood to start some kind of revert war, but do you have any basis for your claims in the Son Gohan article? It is obvious that the mystic form completely replaces the SSJs, from the dialogue I even quoted. You didn't even comment and simply reverted the work, even the obviously correct fact that Mystic is a fanname that isn't used anywhere in the series.

Now I'm going to revert it, and I expect it to remain the same, unless you can actually come up with any reasonable reasons why it should be changed again. I have provided reasons for changing the section. I'd appreciate it if you would do so as well. Preferably here, in your talk page. Kusonaga 18:54, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Elder Kai did say 'mystic'. Romanji names aren't used throughout the articles, it's a rule regarding wikipedia's language regulations. Gohan had more power when he did the super saiyan thingy and before that, he was just mad and went mystic without trying to go super saiyan (when he was fed up with the ritual and it convinced him to continue). He had no reason to go super saiyan and was just venting his power. Furthermore, mystic is a potential unlocking ritual, not a transformation, so obviously he could still transform, he just never did in the show. The explainations that were previously there make more sense and are factually correct, without being vague and ignoring items directly stated to be technically true. yes somethings are a tiny stretch, but wiki is for information, and with dbz not everything is explained properly or without flaws (various statements and actions contridict previous information, not only in GT, Dragonball, or the DBZ movies, but in the indubitably cannon Dragon Ball Z itself) and open themselves to interpretation. Infinare 20:20, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

 * It was never called anything like 'the mystic transformation', it was not a specified name. I can understand the Romanji thing. During the ritual, Gohan was fed up and powered up and his hair flashed. Later, after the ritual had finished, the Elder Kai told him to do his SSJ thing. Gohan did so and achieved his mystic status. That also means it won't fall under special abilties, since Gohan simply is Mystic, and can't logically be undone.

 * Gohan simply cannot go SSJ anymore, it was negated. This is explicitly shown in that scene. Saying that he lost his power thanks to his death is never stated and conjecture not founded in the anime or manga, so it should not be represented. This in the end, makes much more sense, and is actually based on something rather than 'he just never transformed', which he did attempt and that's when he 'became mystic'.

Huang Binhong

Huáng Bīnhóng (January 27, 1865– March 25, 1955) was a Chinese literati painter and art historian born in Jinhua, Zhejiang province. His ancestral home was She County, Anhui province. He was the grandson of artist Huang Fengliu. He would later be associated with Shanghai and finally Hangzhou. He is considered one of the last innovators in the literati style of painting and is noted for his freehand landscapes.

Biography
Huang's father was a merchant and art enthusiast, propelling Bīnhóng interest in painting. However, his father's business collapsed in 1888; the family moved to Shexian (their native land). He would develop a connection with the land, growing a fondness towards Xinan literature and painting, which he would later emulate the styles of. Moreover, he collected and studying ancient seals.

As an opposer of the Manchu Dynasty, he became involved in revolutionary activities. But fled to Shanghai when he was exposed. There, he became a publisher and editor for various art books.

Artistic Inspiration
His early painting style showed the influence of Li Liufang (李流芳), Cheng Sui, Cheng Zhengkui, Kun Can, Hong Ren and the Yuan and Ming masters. It emphasized on the importance of the unification of positive and negative space; dark and light shades. Each brush line is powerful and precise. The compact touches, the graceful outlines and the elegant styles of Xin’an School of painting (新安画派) had a profound influence on Huang throughout his life. His style before the age of sixty is called the White-period.

After the age of sixty, Huang went to Guichi. The scenery of Guichi not only attracted the artist, but also had a great impact on his style. Huang changed from focusing on brush and line to focusing on ink and wash. He started to practice the painting style of Wu Zhen. In 1928, Huang visited Guangxi and Guangdong and created a lot of works by sketching the real landscapes. Huang started to transit from his “White style” to “Black style”.

At the age of sixty nine to seventy, Huang visited Sichuan. He was inspired by the atmosphere of Mount Qingcheng in rain and the Qutang Gorge under moonlight. He utilized dripping, staining and layers of dense ink to illustrate the misty wet feeling of rain and the nightly view of mountains. Since then, his "black, dense, thick, heavy" style became his significant feature.

From 1937 to 1948, Huang lived in Beijing for eleven years and most of his Black period paintings were done during that time. After that, he moved to Hangzhou and started another new horizon in his art. Inspired by Western Impressionism, he integrated the two major Chinese painting systems (Ink and wash painting and color painting) into a unity. Dots of red, green and blue pigment merged with layers of dense ink creating a luxuriant and richly integrated style in which he deftly manipulated solid and void. His varied style and creativity not only won him an honorary title, but also brought light into the modern Chinese art history.

Influence
He had significance for creating several societies devoted to painting and calligraphy.
