Consider this a piece offering after Tuesday morning's stinky fish fry.
Fergie has never looked sexier. The Black Eyed Peas singer doesn't leave much to the imagination in new ads for her latest perfume Viva, in which she shows off her amazing cleavage.
Fergie – whose full name is Stacy Ann Ferguson – is seen striking a pose at the foot of a curving staircase wearing a clingy black leather and lace mini dress that shows off her shapely legs and ample bosom.
You know, I'm a morbidly-obese, hideously-disfigured, slow-witted cretin. That being said, I know I can get Fergie. No, I haven't started sprinkling my bacon with crack. I have seen this girl's history, though. Sooner or later, she'll be back on the meth; then Chesty LaRue will be enjoying the penthouse suite at the Wyatt Regency Hotel.

The following information was supplied by the Southold Town Police Departments. A criminal charge is only an accusation and does not indicate guilt.
Brian Rive, 38, of Mattituck, was charged with first-degree reckless endangerment, second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, second-degree menacing and second-degree aggravated harassment on Oct. 28 at 3:35 p.m., after police responded to a report of a man shooting a gun at two people during a dispute at a location on Route 25 in Mattituck, police said.
Upon arrival, police located Rive, who was identified as the person with a handgun. Southold Police K-9 unit assisted with a search of the area and located a 9mm handgun. During the investigation, one of Rive's pitbull dogs charged the police K-9 dog and started viciously fighting it. Southold police were unable to separate the dogs and were forced to shoot the pitbull, killing it.
Rive was arrested and held for arraignment. A search warrant was obtained for Rive's residence, and upon searching the dwelling, police found evidence of gun ownership and illegal drugs, police said.
Hudson the K-9 dog is in good condition as of Monday, according to police.

Marlborough School Sidcup closes its World Art Week with exhibition
11:38am Monday 26th November 2012 in Bexley By Tim MacFarlan, reporter
A SIDCUP special school has celebrated the end of its World Art Week with an exhibition.
Staff, parents and students at Marlborough School for 11 to 19-year-olds with learning difficulties enjoyed the display of pupils' work including 3D and video presentations on ipads.
There was also face painting and dressing up as well as a display of world artefacts owned by staff. Bexley mayor Councillor Alan Downing was joined by deputy mayor Cllr Brian Beckwith for the cultural event on Friday (November 23).
Actress Victoria Alcock of Bad Girls, Call The Midwife, Doctor Who and Eastenders fame was also there to show her support for Marlborough School as a patron of the NSPCC.
Art and Design teacher Michael Quirke said: "We were really happy with the way it went and personally I am pleased especially with the way staff pulled together and made it a fun week and an entertaining one.
"The kids enjoyed it as they were able to see the work they had done all week on display and see people appreciating it as well."

The plunge in the ECB's deposit facility usage does not really tell us anything new
There have been quite a few headlines on the huge drop in the usage of the ECB's deposit facility, close to EUR 500bn to be more specific, the largest drop ever. This has once again raised interpretations that banks have now started to lend to the real economy, as the zero per cent ECB deposit facility rate has discouraged depositing money at the ECB.
This interpretation would be totally false, at least based on the deposit facility usage data. The use of the deposit facility is largely determined by how much excess liquidity there is in the system, which in turn is affected strongly by how much banks borrow from the ECB via refinancing operations. This money can return to the ECB through the current account holdings of banks or the usage of the deposit facility.
It is normal that when a new reserve maintenance period starts, as it did yesterday, the usage of the deposit facility falls, as banks aim to meet their reserve requirements early in the maintenance period to allow for more flexibility later (the reserve requirement is determined for the average during a maintenance period, not for a daily limit).
True, this time the jump in the current account holdings of banks and the fall in the deposit facility usage was much larger than usual, but there is a simple explanation for this as well. The ECB pays interest amounting to the main refinancing rate, currently 0.75%, for required reserves, but no interest to excess reserves. As the central bank does not pay interest at the deposit facility any more either, banks do not have any incentive to use the facility, as an alternative to holding excess reserves at their current accounts. Hence the huge drop in the deposit facility usage.
To sum up, the plunge in the deposit facility usage does not really tell us anything new. A comment by the ECB's Bonnici (head of the Central Bank of Malta) that the steep drop in the deposit facility usage was a good sign sounds odd. If lending to the real economy starts to pick up, this would gradually lead to an increase in the required reserves, and thus also a fall in excess liquidity. As the required reserves amount to just over EUR 100bn, while the deposit facility has had around EUR 800bn of usage lately, it is not hard to see that this kind of excess liquidity will not be removed from the system via increased lending to the real economy and higher reserve requirements. The money cannot disappear from the banking system: as long as banks borrow more from the ECB than is needed to fulfill the reserve requirements of the banking system, there will also be excess liquidity.
ECB deposit facility usage plummets, but current account holdings jump

Bluefield Daily Telegraph
Rick Puckett, vice president of quality and safety at Princeton Community Hospital, appeared to have his hands full, directing the flow of ladies coming into the hospital's annual Women's Health Screening at the hospital Saturday morning.
"We have more than 300 women signed up this year," Puckett said as he smiled and provided directions to the first stop during the process. In 2011, PCH served a little more than 200 ladies during the health screening that checks for breast and cervical cancer through the West Virginia Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program.
"The WVBCCSP is a comprehensive public health program that helps uninsured or underinsured women gain access to breast and cervical cancer screening services," according to the organization's web site. "Screening and early detection reduces death rates, improves treatment options, and greatly increases survival."
PCH has been conducting the women's health screenings for about seven years, although Puckett couldn't remember the exact number of years on Saturday morning when ladies were streaming in the door. He did know that there were 16 LPN students helping with the screening along with seven providers, even more nurses and even more staff personnel — all of whom were committing an entire day from before 8 a.m. until 3:30-5 p.m. to volunteer for the program.
"This is a community effort," Dr. Lori Tucker, OB-GYN, a seven-year veteran of volunteering with the program said. She asked one of the LPN students what number they were on. The young lady responded, "88," and Tucker was ready to get back to work.
"West Virginia has one of the best programs for screening for breast and cervical cancers," Tucker said. "PCH started participating in this early. The reason we can do this is because of the community," she said. "All of the volunteers."
"We're meeting some very nice people and we're finding things that need to be addressed," Dr. Jamette Huffman said. She added that the WVBCCSP screenings serve both uninsured and underinsured patients.
Kayla Sizemore, RN, was one of several nurses working the event even though it was a challenging day for her. Sizemore has been volunteering to work the screenings for the past four years, and two years ago, she encouraged her mother to go through the screening. Sadly, her mother's cancer was discovered too late. She passed away last year.
"October is a little emotional for me," Sizemore said as she looked briefly down the hallway. "It was one year and one week ago today that she passed away," she said.
"This is a good screening program for the patients," Tabitha Cox, RN, said, helping her friend and colleague. "You want to try to treat people with the same care and professionalism as you treat everyone else. They don't think of it as a clinic. They see it as a screening. We need to get the community support to do this."
Each of the volunteers were wearing pink t-shirts announcing that they were part of "Team PCH," at the "Women's Health Screening." The hospital was busy, but it didn't seem as though anyone had to wait too long.

The dog days of summer are upon us and we have had our fair share of heat waves with more likely still to come. Socializing outdoors with barbeques and picnics is a typical way to spend time and traveling with food is common. The hot weather during this exceptionally hot season is a recipe for disaster and can ruin the fun if foods are not handled safely. Food poisoning, which causes GI distress and worse, is often the result of unsafe practices.
The Center for Disease Control estimates that 1 in 6 Americans (48 million cases) get sick from foodborne diseas e each year by consuming contaminated foods or beverages. Many of these cases can be attributed to foods not being kept at a safe temperature. Seniors, children, pregnant women and immuno-compromised people are at higher risk for contracting food poisoning. It is important to follow precautions to stay healthy.
"Careful hand-washing before, during, and after preparing food is important in prevention of food poisoning," according to Julie Friedman, Clinical Nutrition Manager at Phelps Memorial Hospital Center. "It is also critical to handle, cook and store foods safely to prevent food-borne illness," says Friedman who also suggests the following tips to minimize the risk of spoiling a celebration:
During and After Food Shopping:
When shopping, buy cold foods last and unpack them first. When possible transport in an insulated bag or cooler inside an air conditioned car.
At your destination place immediately in a refrigerator with a temperature no higher than 40 F unless to be used right away. Keep meat in a refrigerator or cooler until ready for cooking. Do not leave any perishable foods items out of refrigeration for more than a total of 4 hours from the time of purchase until consumption.
Keep Everything Clean:
Wash hands before and after handling raw meat and poultry. Thaw meat or poultry either in the refrigerator, in a leak-proof plastic bag in cold tap water or in the microwave. Keep raw meat and poultry separate from other foods.
When Transporting Food / Traveling:
Pack perishable foods with plenty of ice or a frozen ice pack in an insulated lunch bag or cooler. Use a refrigerator thermometer to make sure temps stay below 40 degrees. Store inside the air conditioned car.
Use a food thermometer to measure the internal temperature of meats before eating them.
Cook beef, veal, lamb, roasts and chops to 145F.
Cook fresh pork and ground meats to 160F.
Cook ground poultry to 165F and whole poultry to 170 degrees F (breast) to 180F (thigh).
Cook eggs to be included in any dish until the yolk is firm.
Use separate plates and utensils to handle raw and cooked foods.
Serving Food:
Put cooked meat on a unused clean platter, not one that held raw meat.
Serve with clean utensils not used to handle uncooked foods.
Discard any food left out for more than 2 hours, but only 1 hour if the temperature is above 90 F.
Store with a date of preparation and throw away within 3-5 days.
Symptoms of food poisoning can occur within hours or develop over a period of days. Most people think of the obvious symptoms as being gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, but food poisoning can also result in more serious problems such as fever, chills, bloody stools, dehydration, kidney failure, nervous system damage and even death in severe cases or if the affected person has a compromised immune system.
If you follow the food preparation tips above, you should have a safe and enjoyable summer. For more information about programs and services at Phelps Hospital, go to www.phelpshospital.org.

What is the "Step-on-it" factor?
Item 17 in the LJ Index of the July 2009 issue quotes an average "Step-on-it" factor.
Maybe I should be put out to pasture but I've never heard of a "Step-on-it" factor.
A Multiplier
Say a programmer figures it's gonna take 2 weeks to do some task. Since programmers always underestimate the time required to accomplish something, to arrive at a more realistic estimate, you "step-on-it" (the original estimate). In this case you multiply it by some factor.

That makes sense
Thanks. Now I know what to call it!
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Cristen Copley didn't know a special home-buying
program would ante up a few thousand dollars for her St. Louis dream
house. But she's glad it did: It keeps the milk from spoiling.
Mae and Freddie
Mac work with government agencies, lenders and community activist
groups to offer specialized loan programs around the country. The
initiatives come in all shapes and sizes, but have one underlying
aim -- to revitalize communities, replenish neighborhoods and otherwise
give dilapidated buildings a new lease on life.
Buying a house
-- and a refrigerator
"We already had the contract on the house and were getting ready
to close. Then our real estate agent happened to find out about
the program," says Copley, a 27-year-old registered nurse at Washington
University School of Medicine in St. Louis. "Because there was so
much that needed to be done to the house, we were scraping every
last penny that we had, and this way we actually were able to buy
a refrigerator."
In the mortgage world, thousands of home buyers
never have to stop and think about the world around them. They can
pay 10 percent, or even 20 percent, down and buy a brand-new home
for their 2.6 kids, never worrying about anything save for the delinquent
homeowner down the street who painted the mailbox a gaudy color.
To some consumers, however, finding a place
to settle down involves much more. Some want to buy homes, but can't
because they don't have enough money for a down payment or have
too many financial scars in their past. Others crave the sense of
personal satisfaction that comes from helping out the communities
around them. Regardless of the reasons, these home hunters don't
fit into the conventional mortgage mold.
loans for special buyers
Because of the efforts of a remarkable collection of groups, however,
they don't have to. Supported by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- the
two agencies that purchase loans from lenders, bundle them together
and sell them off to Wall Street investors -- these interested parties
make millions of dollars worth of mortgages available so unconventional
buyers can realize their dreams like everybody else. And because
the programs target everyone from firefighters in Los Angeles to
people with troubled credit in New Orleans, the local lender may
very well offer at least one of them.
"The standard mortgage lending process doesn't
always ... satisfy the needs of different markets, different borrowers
and different neighborhoods," says Mike Coffey, vice president for
expanding markets at Freddie Mac. "We know that (conventional loans)
don't necessarily work in all cases across the entire spectrum of
borrower circumstances and there are situations or circumstances
where you have to do something and take more direct intervention."
The two agencies approach targeted lending in
different ways, and no two loan programs are the same.
Fannie Mae got the ball rolling a few years
back by unveiling a "Trillion
Dollar Commitment": its pledge to provide that amount of housing
money to underserved borrowers, be they minorities, low- to moderate-income
mortgage hunters or immigrants. Since 1994, the agency has designed
more lenient loan programs and encouraged the use of computerized
loan processing systems to reduce the risk of these mortgages. It
also has established so-called Partnership Offices in many cities
that hammer out loan agreements with local groups.
"We're working very, very closely with our partners
in the community -- developers, counselers -- and we're working
with lenders and Realtors doing training," says Clifton Berry, director
of the agency's St. Louis location. "If you live in an area where
there is a Fannie Mae partnership office, you know about that office,
you know about that office's investment plan, you know specifically
the number of investments you committed to and the number of families
we're committed to help."
target specific groups
Two of those commitments unveiled in Berry's region during the past
couple years help illustrate where the consumer fits into the grand
scheme of things. The first, offered to Copley and her husband,
targeted employees of Washington University and Barnes-Jewish Hospital.
It allowed the couple to buy a property in the Skinker-DeBaliviere
neighborhood, about three miles from WU's medical school. They received
$4,000 from the university, a grant equal to about 3 percent of
their home's $125,000 purchase price.
More recently, Fannie Mae announced an alliance
with the Unity Health group of hospitals and related health-care
subsidiaries. The program aims to encourage Unity employees to buy
homes in the neighborhood surrounding the company's Alexian Brothers
Hospital. Eligible borrowers will receive up to $5,000 in purchasing
assistance in the form of a forgivable loan. The employee won't
have to make payments on principal or interest and won't have to
pay the loan back at all if he stays in his home and continues to
work for the company for five years.
"The hospital is located in a neighborhood with
changing demographics. We have a neighborhood which had been predominately
elderly, with an older, stable population that is really starting
to transition," says Glenn Appelbaum, Alexian's senior vice president.
"As the largest employer here in the neighborhood, we were viewed
as the logical company to take a leadership initiative."
An employee can choose between four lenders,
which will offer loans under terms spelled out by Fannie Mae. The
loans, which the agency will buy after closing, feature fixed-rate
payment schedules much like traditional 30-year mortgages, but have
looser qualification guidelines for debt-to-income ratios, credit
scores and the like.
"We're right down the street from the hospital
so it would make sense that we're involved with this project," says
Edwin Schmid, vice president of the local Union
Planters Corp. branch. "It's kind of a win-win-win thing
for everyone involved. We hope, and the goal is, to try and stabilize
and improve the neighborhood, and at the same time offer financing
to people who may not think they qualify."
The hospital launched its program March 1 and
is just now beginning to advertise it to employees. Appelbaum hopes
to get about 20 to 25 people into homes during each of the next
three years through the initiative.
"What you see when you leave are some boarded-up
properties, some properties in somewhat of disrepair and vacancies,"
he says. "But you see properties in pretty shabby condition -- older
brick properties -- that with some care and some dollars put into
them could be quite nice facilities."
smorgasboard of programs available
So what options are available for borrowers who don't happen to
change IV bags in southeastern St. Louis? Plenty, given the wealth
of programs available today through both of the agencies.
Where you can find
programs in your area
Freddie Mac's Los Angeles program, for example,
allows civil service workers such as firefighters and police officers
the chance to buy houses without a down payment. Another pilot program
lets people with bad credit purchase homes after 18 months in a
Credit Counseling Service debt management plan. Others have
targeted minority borrowers, with the assistance of the National
Association for the Advancement of Colored People and general
home buyers in southern California, Kansas City, Kan. and Orange
County, Fla.
Fannie Mae runs an information line (1-800-7FANNIE)
that people can call to find out about programs in their area, while
Freddie Mac suggests consumers contact their state housing authority
or agency. Churches, other community organizations and local lenders
may have information as well.
The bottom line, at least from Copley's perspective,
is that help's out there for the taking -- if you know where to
"We are thrilled," she says almost a year and
a half after settling. "At the time that we moved in we didn't even
realize what a gem we have, and we just feel so fortunate that we
bought into such a wonderful neighborhood."

The Frosty 5
When It Comes to Winter Skincare Survival, Rely on These Five Essential Ingredients.
The weather outside may be frightful, but that doesn't mean your skin needs to be. Cosmetic Chemist Ni'Kita Wilson dishes on ingredients that will keep your skin protected, hydrated and radiant—all winter long.
1. Shea Butter
Not only is shea butter packed with skin-calming sterols, but it triggers skin to produce its own natural sterols. It also supplies the necessary lipids (oils) to help repair the natural lipid barrier, which is responsible for holding in moisture (read: supple, plump skin).
Shea Terra Marula Whipped Shea Butter
An anti-aging moisturing cream for the body.
First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream
An all-over body cream the deeply hydrates and calms even severe skin conditions.
Bayberry Naturals Aloe & Shea Herbal Shower Gel

Blue Bomber Report Record: 4–1–0
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Enabling kids to play sports key to their futures
It's not every day in this business your sports editor calls to tell you your column will be overseen by Mikhail Gorbachev.
As part of his participation in We Day today, Gorbachev was asked to serve as special guest editor of the Winnipeg Free Press, and thereby determined my column will loosely follow his theme at this event, and explain specifically how sports can benefit and impact today's youth.
Bombers Scores
Powered by Sports Direct Inc.
Health and well-being of children
Protection of environment
It just so happens I will be hosting the fourth annual Doug Brown KidSport Winnipeg Football camp on April 20, 2013, so I have a little firsthand knowledge to impart.
Before we go there, though, the lessons of how sport benefits youth became most apparent to me in 2010. During one of his weekly sermons, former head coach Paul LaPolice had the team participate in an exercise where we went to the front of our meeting room and revealed to each other who we trusted most. Not surprisingly, most of the players trusted one parent or the other, but what was shocking was the number that disclosed how their lives were immeasurably improved by the emphasis these parents placed on their participation in sport.
By the time the entire roster had shared with the team, it was incredible how many players felt that without the opportunity given to them to play football or other sports, their lives would have been negatively impacted to the same degree as others they grew up with who ended up in gangs, incarcerated, or dead.
During my upbringing, I didn't have the same immediacy of danger around me as many of my former teammates, but these testimonials revealed the positive impact that sport has on your life. Most of the friends I made when I was young were on some sort of team with me. In my free time I participated in activities that not only taught me about teamwork and sportsmanship, but benefited my health and physical well-being at the same time. Regardless of whether they end up making a living from playing a sport, having youth participate in organized activities familiarizes them with group dynamics and introduces them to competition and camaraderie.
As an overtly aggressive youngster, sports provided me with a constructive and positive outlet to channel this rambunctiousness, and it instilled a work ethic that carried me throughout my career.
The reason KidSport is such a great organization and a natural fit for me, is that we both have the same understanding of how critical it is for youth to be active and engaged in sport. Their sole mandate is to remove as many obstacles and barriers as possible, financial or otherwise, so that all kids have the opportunity to play.
To date, KidSport has helped almost 6,000 children in Winnipeg by distributing almost three quarters of a million dollars to remove financial barriers, and it has proven to have a lasting effect. A recent study revealed 65 per cent of the kids that have received this financial assistance to participate in activities, remain involved in sport some three years later.
In fact, KidSport has been so successful at accomplishing their goals of involving kids in sport, they are now in dire need of further funding. This year saw an increase in financial support to kids of over $40,000 from 2011, so they need to increase their fundraising to accommodate this trend. All the funds donated in Winnipeg stay in Winnipeg, and donations can be sent to the attention of Christine Hoenisch at KidSport Winnipeg, 145 Pacific Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R3B 2Z6, payable to KidSport Canada-Manitoba, or online at https://app.etapestry.com/hosted/KidSportCanada/OnlineDonation.html.
Doug Brown, once a hard-hitting defensive lineman and frequently a hard-hitting columnist, appears Tuesdays and game days in the Free Press.

If you looked through every book, you would be surprised at some of the recipes you see. For instance, for years I didn't know that some of my mother's favorite recipes, like Pecan Praline Cookies, were Pillsbury Bake-Off® winners. The Bake-Off® has popularized everything from bundt pans to sesame seeds.
This is just a small sampling of my variations of favorite recipes from the beginning Bake-Off years. You'll notice that, in the earlier years, sweets ruled the day. That's because the earlier contests tended to feature entree recipes like 'Thrifty Giblet Dinner' or 'Porky Cornbread', so the sweet stuff won out. Enjoy.
Favorite Pillsbury Bake-Off® Recipes
- Peanut Blossoms
These are my husband's favorite cookies. I use all butter instead of shortening, reduce the flour, and add a chilling step. If you love chocolate and peanut butter, these are the cookies for you.
- Chocolate Mint Surprise Cookies
These crisp brown sugar cookies have a melted chocolate mint in the center. I glaze these cookies with chocolate, reduced the flour, added chilling time, and offer a freezer variation. The original recipe won $10,000 in the very first Bake-Off® in 1949.
- Brown Sugar Meringue Bars
Also known as "Hoosier Bars", this fabulous bar cookie appeared in the first Bake-Off®. I love this recipe, and have changed it to make it my own.
- Savory Cheese Snack Bread
Before Americans knew how to pronounce 'Focaccia', this forerunner of the Italian snack bread won $1,000 at the second Pillsbury Bake-Off®. My version uses different cheese, and more cheese!
- Triple Chocolate Cake
This recipe illustrates how American's tastes have changed. The original recipe, called Starlight Mint Cake, had a fairly light chocolate density, considered decadent in 1951. I've tripled the chocolate and added some shortcuts to make a fabulous cake.
- French Silk Chocolate Pie
This rich, smooth, fluffy, and creamy chocolate pie has become a mainstream recipe. Did you know it originated at the 3rd Pillsbury Bake-Off®?
- Blueberry Snack Cake
A teen-ager created this winning recipe, which is a tender, easy coffee cake perfect for a coffee klatsch. My version is even easier.
- Caramel Cream Cookies
Oh, this is the most fabulous cookie. Two tender brown sugar butter cookies are sandwiched with a brown butter frosting; the layers combine for a cookie that melts in your mouth. I changed the recipe to make them individual cookies for a better frosting-to-cookie ratio.
- Surprise Muffins
Also known as "Jam Dandy Muffins", these tender muffins with the fruity surprise center appeared in the 8th Bake-Off®.
- Pecan Pralines
Hmmmm...it seems that this cookie's original name was "Pecan Paulines"! Somehow the name evolved over the years in my family. No matter, this refrigerator cookie with the candy topping is wonderful.

If you haven't gotten enough election talk yet, Muskego has begun its season today, as candidates may begin filing papers for aldermanic seats, municipal judge and school board.
Muskego Common Council seats for the first, third and fifth districts, currently held by Tracy Snead, Neil Borgman and Dan Soltysiak respectively, will be up for re-election in 2012. Presently Borgman and Soltysiak have announced they will run again. Inquiries to Alderman Snead have not been answered yet.
In addition, second district alderman Kert Harenda will have the option to run for the third district seat, as redistricting has meant he will no longer be living in the second district. Should he decide to continue in his district, he will not need to relinquish his seat until the 2013 election.
The municipal judgeship currently held by Patrick Berigan will also be on the ballot. Judge Berigan has confirmed he will run again.
Salaries for Aldermen are $293.79 biweekly, and the salary for municipal judge is $423.08.
For Muskego School Board, Lisa Warwick, Eric Schroeder and Mike Serdynski have all indicated they intend to run for re-election; should there be more than three additional candidates for these seats, a primary will be held in February, with the final six on the ballot for April.
Board members receive $4,073 per year and the board President receives $4,413 per year.
