The Animal Care and Protection Act 2001 (Qld) requires that any person using animals for scientific purposes for research or teaching must:
Commencing a project without prior written approval from an Animal Ethics Committee may be subject to criminal prosecution under the Animal Care and Protection Act 2001 (Qld).
For the purposes of the Act, an animal is defined as:
The Act does not consider a human being or human foetus to be an animal, nor are the eggs, spat or spawn of fish.
USQ is committed to promoting and ensuring the ethical conduct of scientific work involving animals and requires all staff and students to ensure that:
The University is registered with Biosecurity Queensland – Animal Welfare and Ethics and is responsible for ensuring compliance with the Scientific Use Code and all legislation governing the scientific use of animals.
Applications and amendments for animal ethics approval are processed through the Office of Research.
The terms of reference for the operation and membership of the USQ AEC are outlined in the Australian Code for the Care and Use of Animals for Scientific Purposes, 8th Edition, 2013 (the Scientific Use Code). The Scientific Use Code is also the principle point of reference for the Animal Ethics Committee when considering applications to undertake scientific research or teaching activities involving animals, in particular clauses 1.5 and 1.6 (see below):
Clause 1.5 Evidence to support a case to use animals must demonstrate that:
Clause 1.6 Projects must only be undertaken:
The Committee is responsible for reviewing, providing advice and approving or not approving applications and standard work procedures that involve the scientific use of animals. The committee is also responsible for ensuring animal welfare by monitoring compliance with AEC approvals including conducting animal house and laboratory site visits. Members of the committee must ensure confidentiality of AEC proceedings at all times .
Training on animal ethics regulations and an animal handling workshop is held each semester. Further details on these workshops can be obtained from the Ethics Committee Support Officer by emailing email@example.com.

|Sorting out disaster recovery options
There are four principle hardware delivery platforms: storage array, general-purpose server, purpose-built storage appliance and the intelligent storage networking switch. The storage array is a purpose-built storage server for block or file-based storage. Many storage vendors provide optional storage array DR software, which includes synchronous and asynchronous remote mirroring and snapshot. These software products are typically specific to the individual vendor and its storage offerings.
Storage array-based software usually doesn't require application server agents. The arrays are server operating system-agnostic and the DR applications run fast. They are also installed in thousands of locations, and are proven and mature.
However, the array DR applications don't work with heterogeneous storage. In general, they don't have file-level or application awareness. (Array applications with application awareness use agents.) Storage array IOPS and throughput decline while DR applications are running. And these DR applications are licensed and managed on a per-array basis. Storage array DR applications have some of the highest TCOs and, in some cases, consume more raw storage than non-array based alternatives.
General-purpose servers have very low acquisition costs and low TCO. Implementing, servicing and managing them are known quantities. Performance is tunable and DR application performance leverages ongoing improvements in server technology. Increasing performance or scalability may be as simple as buying the next-larger server, and more memory and processing power. Other advantages include support for heterogeneous storage, and application and file-system awareness. General-purpose servers require DR application agents.
The purpose-built storage appliance is nothing more than a DR application optimized server. A good way to think of the purpose-built storage appliance is to view it as a networked storage controller. It leverages technologies specifically optimized for storage DR applications. Optimization includes I/O performance, throughput, scalability and high availability (no single point of failure). TCO is definitely lower than for the storage array or intelligent server, but the purpose-built appliance is proprietary. It may also have higher initial acquisition costs and may not keep up with server technology advances.
The intelligent storage networking switch is a relatively new DR delivery platform. The storage area network (SAN) switch is the ideal system to provide DR applications because it sits between application servers and their target storage, and it also has visibility into all servers and storage targets.
There are two principle types of intelligent storage-network switches. The first essentially integrates the purpose-built storage appliance as a server blade into a Fibre Channel SAN switch or director. The second packages it as a storage software delivery platform that just happens to use switching as part of its architecture. It leverages a new technology called split path acceleration of independent data streams (SPAID). SPAID improves performance by separating the control path (the slow path) from the data path (the fast path). It enables out-of-band virtualization without requiring server agents and runs most DR software applications without any changes. Initial costs and TCO will probably be much higher than for non-integrated systems.
No other platform has the DR application performance potential of the SPAID intelligent storage networking switch. SPAID switches have an inherently higher level of reliability, availability and serviceability than storage appliances because of the separation of control path from data path. Unfortunately, there are only a small handful of products that use the SPAID architecture. These include software from Incipient Inc., Maranti Networks, StoreAge Networking Technologies, Troika Networks Inc. and Veritas Software Corp. Of these, only StoreAge has a comprehensive suite of DR applications that works with all of the SPAID intelligent storage networking switches. Maranti has its own suite of DR applications, and Troika is working on a suite with tie-ins to other software-based DR applications. Incipient and Veritas are currently limited to volume management only.
Remember, a cost-effective DR strategy requires a mix of DR applications running on several platforms. Managing cost and effectiveness requires matching the value of the data to specific DR capabilities. This mix-and-match approach will reduce overall DR cost while meeting the organization's needs (see Sorting out disaster recovery options). Of course, this process must be repeated periodically to re-evaluate new technologies, products, SLA requirements and compliance regulations.

A funeral celebration of life service will be held Saturday for Benjamin "Bennie" F. Porter Jr. of Hermitage. He departed this life Tuesday morning, April 16, 2013, in the hospital of Sharon Regional Health System. He was 79.
Mr. Porter was born Nov. 15, 1933, in Sharon, a son of Benjamin Porter Sr. and Utha Belle Lee Porter.
He attended Sharon High School, where he participated in its football program. As an alumnus of the Barber Institute in Pittsburgh, he was licensed in the State of Pennsylvania.
He was the owner and operator of the former Porter's Barber Shop for more than 50 years.
Mr. Porter was a member of the Army, proudly serving during the Korean conflict.
He was formerly employed with Shenango Furnace Mill and General Motors Corp.'s Lordstown (Ohio) car assembly plant for 42 years, retiring in 2006.
He was a lifelong member of Ruth African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Sharon; and was a former member of Free and Accepted Masons.
Mr. Porter's love for sports was only surpassed by his love of fishing and spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He was the ultimate host to everyone who graced his home with their presence. He will be sadly missed by his family, neighbors and friends.
He leaves to cherish his memory: his wife of 55 years, the former LaVerne "Bunnie" Culp; two daughters, Jacqueline J. Cruz and Phyllis "Fee Fee" White; his son, Benjamin "Stuff" Porter III; five grandsons, who were raised like his own, Jeffrey T. Porter, Marcus A. Horvath, Julio Cruz Jr., Rico Cruz and Terrence W.

This is some good news: JWR over at the great resource SurvivalBlog.com is making available a CD with all of the posts from his blog from 2005 – 2010 for only about $20. It isn't available yet but will be in a couple of weeks from his Cafe Press store.
He has recently added an archive of every post to his site, organized by month and by topic and it sounds like this CD will have all that so you can read it offline if the Internet is down. Kind of a belt-and-suspenders thing. One is none, two is one.
On a side note, I have been working on a project that I am going to roll out pretty soon that I hope everyone will like. I don't know about you but I have had a hard time keeping track of all the great sites out there that are just chock full of great prep and survival information – everything from bug out bags to junk silver to 12 valve Dodge Diesels to canning to firearm skills and maintenance to boot selection to waterproof gear and on and on and on.
I have compiled quite a massive collection of this stuff and am going to present it in a easy to digest, easy to sort and search tool that I hope is useful to a lot of folks.
So, check back soon and I will let you know what the site is and where it lives on the inter-tubes.

The mentored more than 100 kids over the summer, and they touted the success of their program to the San Clemente City Council Tuesday.
The children were the children of Marines and sailors, for which the club received a $99,000 grant to serve. The club hired mentors and surveyed the kids on their passions, fears and insecurities. They paired them up with mentors accordingly; the mentors had different genders, ethnicities and skill sets.
"For example, if there were a kid who didn't make the basketball team and he wanted to next year, we paired him up with a mentor who had some baskeball skills," Andy Broche, the club's programming director, said in an interview.
local non-profit were also involved in the physical fitness component.
Broche said the club plans to continue the program next summer if funds are available. The money for this year's program came from the feds; the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.

Snow has moved into the region and schools have begun to let out early and area events are being canceled or postponed and area shelters are opening.
Kevin Taylor, director of Beckley Emergency Services, said Raleigh County government agencies conducted a conference call at noon today to discuss plans of action. Currently, three shelters are being prepared. The shelters that will be open are the Dream Center, Raleigh County Community Action and the Commission on Aging. The Commission on Aging shelter is primarily for those with oxygen and medical-related needs.
Taylor said local public and private agencies are prepared and are currently waiting to see just how much snow and damage occurs. The unknown factors are exactly how much snow the area will receive and whether the power will go out.
Taylor added that he is hopeful area residents are also prepared, and if not there are still a few hours to pick up supplies.
In Nicholas County, schools will release students three hours early today and the city of Summersville Halloween Trick-or-Treat and Block Party scheduled for Tuesday evening has been postponed and new date has not been determined.
Rodney Evans, deputy director of the Nicholas County Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, is advising residents to check for canceled events or closings before going out. Evans says roads in Nicholas County are wet, but snow is steadily falling; and, some locations in higher elevations are reporting a few inches of snow on the grass and elevated surfaces.
Counties also releasing students early today are Greenbrier, two hour early dismissal and Fayette, dismisses at 1 p.m.
Snowfall and wind may interfere with Halloween activities. So far, the Sam's Club Tailgate scheduled for 4:30 p.m. today at the Beckley-Raleigh County Convention Center is canceled and a Tailgate Trick or Treat scheduled for Wednesday at the Greenbrier Valley Medical Center has also been canceled.
The Raleigh County Public Library closed at noon Monday, as did the YMCA Beckley Preschool.
Both the YMCA Beckley Facility and the Erma Byrd Higher Education Center (campus for Bluefield and Concord) will close at 2 p.m. The YMCA and YMCA Preschool are closed for Tuesday.
In addition, National Park Service Chief of Interpretation and Visitor Services Robin Snyder announced all New River Gorge National River visitor centers, campgrounds and trails are closed due to the storm.
This includes Grandview, Canyon Rim, Sandstone and Thurmond Visitor Centers as well as camping near Thurmond, Price, Glade Creek Road, Backus Mountain Road, Cunard, Thayer, and Gauley River National Recreation Area.

Work details
Batman: Hush by Jeph Loeb (Writer)
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I figured out the one guy who was involved in it by the second issue but I didn't see the last one coming.
Gorgeous artwork (Jim Lee is pretty unbeatable when he's on his game) but the story doesn't feel as fresh or interesting as the last Batman work by Loeb I read, The Long Hallowe'en. This feels like a polished up retread of the well worn Batman detective stories, which is fine but the story just doesn't hold up for me. Luckily, the character interactions are much more interesting, although no villain is really given enough page time to truly make a deep impact, and I'm a sucker for some sharp Batman/Catwoman dialogue. It's a damn enjoyable piece of work but not an instant classic.
Not as bad as I thought it would be...
Artwork first: When Jim Lee really likes what he's drawing it shows. He'll put a ridiculous amount of detail into a full-page shot of the Joker crouching in an alley. But, when it comes to illustrating conversations that move the plot forward, backgrounds are barely drawn and perspective is usually ignored. Of course, none of his female characters could possibly have a digestive system, but let's chalk that up to a stylistic quirk. Or at least sex appeal for the Maxim crowd.
The story is forgivingly ridiculous, in that superhero way. Lots of drama here. Lots of kung-fu fighting and things blowing up. But there's also a bit of thought put into this. If there's a theme to the book, it's that of Batman's relationships to his "family" that he's built up over the years.
Perhaps the thing that separates him from the villians is his support network, eh?
I'd put this on the same level as the recent movies: interesting things to look at and a good springboard for discussion. Not a masterpiece by a long shot, but solid.
Really great reunion of many Batman characters, as well as others in the D.C. universe [Superman, Lois Lane, etc.]. Poison Ivy takes a main seat in the story development which was a major plus for me [I'll admit personal bias since she's one of my favorite D.C. characters]. Very well-drawnn, and in Batman's flashbacks to his childhood you see classic D.C. characters drawn as they were back in the day of early comics. A great work for anyone itching for a touch of nostolgia.
Overall, reasonable. Bit of a "greatest hits" type of novel, the twists and turns were not entirely unexpected....Overall, a reasonable effort, but there are a lot better Batman novels out there

Global experts will gather at the Monetising Mature Fields 2014 Summit, taking place in Dubai on 28th-29th October, and organised by leading conference organiser IRN, to assess techniques and technological advancements required to access remaining oil and gas.
London (PRWEB UK) 16 July 2014
Although the attention of the international oil and gas industry is focusing on unconventional resources lately, the potential of the redevelopment of mature oil and gas fields, which can often be overlooked, is the industrys game-changer, with the oil giants looking for technologies that will enhance their post-peak production.
Indeed, the optimization of mature assets production, presenting low-risk opportunities due to low initial costs and safer ROI, looks like the new profitable deal for the oil and gas industry, definitely to consider. Oil companies have been concerned about oil waste for many years, and now, EOR technologies are giving them the only option to avoid a continued struggle to obtain a social and governmental license to operate, contrary to unconventional exploitation.
Global experts in the field will gather for the Monetising Mature Fields 2014 Summit, taking place in Dubai on 28th-29th October, to assess techniques and technological advancements required to access remaining oil and gas, and optimize production capacity. Experts will discuss their experience which has proven that mature field redevelopment prospects require lower capital investment for increased likelihood of pay-out.
The timely event will include joint operator-service provider case studies; best practices from North America, Europe and the Middle East; interactive panel debates, as well as several networking intervals. The Summit will address four main themes to look at mature field strategies in more detail and consider the new opportunities around:

Felton, Rogers share Prep Player of Week honors
Mon. March 11, 2013 at 10:10 p.m. | By Brittany Jackson

By BRITTANY JACKSON
Times-News Staff Writer
From the start of the season Rishad Felton showed he was one of the best players in the area, if not the best.
During Hendersonville's first eight games of the season without counterpart Shawn Rogers on the floor with him, Felton averaged 18.5 points per game, but when the duo joined forces they only increased their numbers.
Felton closed out his senior season with an average of 19.2 points and Rogers with an average of 18.5 points per game.
The two Hendersonville guards continued that pattern through the close of Friday night's 1-A West Regional semifinals in Greensboro as they were the only two to finish the game in double figures for the Bearcats, which makes them both the choices for this week's Times-News Prep co-Players of the week honor.
"Shawn and Rishad played up to what was expected of them (Friday night). They did everything they could to keep us in the game," Featherstone said Friday of his two seniors with prior West Regional experience.
Rogers put up 23 points in the Bearcats' 73-65 loss to East Surry on Friday and Felton finished with 18 points. Defensively, the two guards held East Surry's leading scorer, Scott Meredith, to well under his average for the season and forced him to turn the ball over eight times.
Rogers also finished with five assists, four steals and four rebounds while Felton had three steals and two rebounds. Together, Felton and Rogers scored 19 of the Bearcats' 26 second-half points.
"These two have been with me through my three seasons as varsity head coach," Featherstone said. "It's going to be hard to part ways with them. The three of us have built a special bond from the time we've spent together."
It was announced Monday that Felton was named the 2012-13 Western Highlands Conference Player of the Year, and Featherstone was the Coach of the Year. Rogers, along with Matt Wheeler and Cody Westmoreland, were the only other Bearcats to make the all-conference list.

|carbuncle (ˈkɑːˌbʌŋkəl)
|an extensive skin eruption, similar to but larger than a boil, with several openings: caused by staphylococcal infection
|a rounded gemstone, esp a garnet cut without facets
|a dark reddish-greyish-brown colour
|[C13: from Latin carbunculus diminutive of carbō coal]
carbuncle car·bun·cle (kär'bŭng'kəl)
A deep-seated pyogenic infection of several contiguous hair follicles, with formation of connecting sinuses, often preceded or accompanied by fever, malaise, and prostration.
See anthrax.
(Ex. 28:17; 39:10; Ezek. 28:13). Heb. barkath; LXX. smaragdos; Vulgate, smaragdus; Revised Version, marg., "emerald." The Hebrew word is from a root meaning "to glitter," "lighten," "flash." When held up to the sun, this gem shines like a burning coal, a dark-red glowing coal, and hence is called "carbunculus", i.e., a little coal. It was one of the jewels in the first row of the high priest's breastplate. It has been conjectured by some that the garnet is meant. In Isa. 54:12 the Hebrew word is _'ekdah_, used in the prophetic description of the glory and beauty of the mansions above. Next to the diamond it is the hardest and most costly of all precious stones.

The Eating Disorders Program at UO has been designed to serve students dealing with:
We utilize a team approach in our program in order to offer a comprehensive treatment plan. The team consists of representatives from the fields of:
who work together with the client toward stated goals.
What is an eating disorder? Anorexia, bulimia and binge eating are the three most common eating disorders.
Someone with anorexia:
Someone with bulimia typically:
Those with binge eating:
All of these eating disorders are serious health problems, perhaps life threatening, and can benefit from professional treatment available at UO.
UO offers a team approach to working with clients experiencing eating disorders. We have found that a comprehensive approach seems to be the most beneficial to clients because it maximizes services and support. Our team consists of members from the following disciplines:
All members work together to help you achieve the best and healthiest results for you. Following is a description of the services offered according to specialty area.
Counseling services may consist of group, and possibly individual, counseling. The team requires each person to participate in a weekly group. The group is psycho-educational in nature - it will focus on issues related to interpersonal relationships, self esteem, body image, nutrition, appropriate exercise planning and medical issues related to eating disorders. Educational material will be presented in approximately half the group sessions and subsequent sessions will be used to discuss these issues as they relate to each member. Group counseling is scheduled for 8 weeks and members are asked to attend each session for the 8 week duration. Some clients also benefit from individual counseling. They may be assigned a counselor with whom they can meet on a regular basis to process issues both related and unrelated to their eating disorder. Frequency of sessions and scheduling will be determined by each client and her/his counselor. Our individual services are brief in nature, and thus, the student may be referred out for longer term individual therapy.They can also participate in our group program if receiving therapy elsewhere.
Individualized nutrition education is a vital component in the treatment of eating disorders. Because many people with disordered eating follow rigid diet rules and have chaotic eating patterns, one of the primary goals of nutrition intervention is to assist the client in changing food behaviors in an incremental fashion until food intake patterns are normalized. Defining and discussing relevant principles and concepts of food and nutrition, as well as the effects of starvation and/or binge-purge types of behavior have on metabolism will be explored. The nutrition contribution of the team approach deals with:
In sports medicine/physical therapy the goal will be to work with individuals to set up an appropriate exercise program suited to each person's specific needs. Information will be gathered about each client's current lifestyle, stress and activity levels, postural habits, feelings about exercise and any current injuries. Clients will be encouraged and supported toward a goal of self-management of their customized program over an eight week period.
Medical evaluation is an essential portion of the care and treatment of significant eating disorders. Some patients risk serious, or even life-threatening problems and the prevention and treatment of these urgent concerns is an important goal. Depending on individual needs, a physical exam and laboratory or other testing will be required as part of a thorough evaluation. In addition, the promotion of healthy behavior and good nutrition is emphasized.

Best Day Ever
I have a week off of school due to exams at my school. You only have to go if you have a provincial and I'm stoked that I don't have one. So today, I loaded up a memory card full of music and plugged it into my Wii. For 4 hours straight I have been cleaning, singing and dancing around my house in my underwear. I have to say that I haven't had a day that was this good for a while. And I still have 3 more days. :)

Ten-year old girls cope with cliques, as an insider, an outsider, or both, on a daily basis. At ten, girls are very posssessive of their friends and can be demanding and jealous. They are constantly getting mad at or not speaking to a same-sex friend, usually because the other girl was friendly to someone else.
Girls begin spending the night with each other, sharing secrets and being best friends. Because exclusion and put downs are so common, parents need to keep a sharp eye on girls' friendships and cliques.
Most girls aren't really interested in boys at age ten, though some will begin to have crushes on popular boys. Girls and boys play together well in groups or team sports at age ten.
Ten-year old boys have an easier time with friendships. Boys' relationships tend to be based on mutual interests rather than close, personal feelings. Ten may have a few best friends and casual relationships with other boys on a team or in clubs such as Scouts.
Boys are seldom interested in girls at age ten, except to tease them or scare them. Many boys claim to hate girls at this age. Some will have a 'girlfriend' but are very casual about it.
Ten year olds have good ability to sense the emotions of others and to read facial and body language. At ten, acceptance by the peer group is a critical step that seems to have a strong effect on the next level of development. Poor peer acceptance at age ten is a strong predictor of behavioral and emotional problems in adolescence.
Ten year olds do feel very close to their parents, siblings, and extended family. Both boys and girls are happy to spend time with family in activities and outings. They do have frequent squabbles with siblings, fighting especially with younger siblings. They get along better with an older sibling, but may get their feelings hurt from criticism, teasing, or exclusion by their older brother or sister.

COMMENTARY I Two Americans. Two Brits. They make up four 20-and-under players in the WTA's top 100 looking to be the next big thing in women's tennis.
Laura Robson, Heather Watson, Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys are all making their marks, and people are taking notice.
Laura Robson
Fourteen years old. That's how old Laura Robson was when she won the Wimbledon Junior Girls' Championship. While other girls her age were still playing local tournaments, Robson was being dubbed the next hope of British tennis. At a time when the country's top male -- Andy Murray -- had already experienced a taste of the top 10, Britain was looking for its next exceptional woman to take the stage.
Fast forward a few years, and at the age of 18 the now 43rd-ranked player in the world had a Cinderella summer in 2012. She partnered Andy Murray to grab the mixed doubles silver at the Olympics before finding her own niche at the U.S. Open, where she spurred excitement with wins over Li Na and Kim Clijsters, both former Grand Slam champions.
Robson's striking lefty strokes quickly touted her as one of the top underdogs to watch in draws. Her sponsor, Adidas, also picked up on her accomplishments and named the teen as an ambassador of its Stella McCartney line.
Heather Watson
Robson's Fed Cup teammate, Heather Watson is just ahead of her in the rankings. When it comes to the leaderboard, the two have been toe-to-toe for the past year, and Watson is just as much of an up-and-coming star as her countrywoman. Having two prominent stars, Britain has a lot to look forward to in the next few years. The last British woman to win a slam was Virginia Wade at Wimbledon in 1977. This is why British tennis is so hungry to crown its next queen, and there are two smiling, spirited young women who are ready to take the honors.
Move over Emma Watson, award-winning Harry Potter actress and face of Burberry, there's another Watson ready to take over beauty and fashion. Twenty-year-old Heather inked a deal with world-renowned cosmetic company, Benefit Cosmetics, and there's a lot more to come. As her looks do the talking off court, the 41st-ranked Watson will let her racquet showcase everything else she has to offer.
After finishing 2010 ranked 176, the Guernsey, England, native skyrocketed to a year-end ranking of 49 just two years later. Watson finished off 2012 on another high note, winning her first professional WTA tournament in Japan.
Sloane Stephens
It's hard to forgot this bubbly young woman. She started the year with a major upset at the Australian Open. Unimaginable to some people, Sloane envisioned her upset over idol Serena Williams with no hesitation. "Look, dude, like, you can do this" were her own words of wisdom.
Following her win, Stephens scored big in the headline department, becoming the first American younger than Serena herself, to take her out in a match. It take guts to go out there and compete with a multiple Grand Slam champion, especially if her last name is Williams. But Stephens took it all in stride. Now ranked 16th in the world, the soon-to-be 20-year-old received praise from her new fans, musician John Legend and basketball star Dirk Nowitzki.
Fans. Sloane has lots of them, and her Twitter interaction is above par. Authenticity is what people want, and this young woman gives it off naturally. Whether it's giving motivational advice to her own teenage soul, or wondering what would happen "if you started making car alarm noises when people you didn't like touched you," Sloane produces tweets that build a strong relationship with her fans. She stays real.
Madison Keys
It's hard to find a young girl who doesn't like dressing up. And 79th-ranked Madison Keys wasn't an exception. The big server started playing tennis because she fancied the outfits. "I really wanted a tennis dress. My parents told me that if I played they would buy me one," she said.
At 14 years old, Madison was already breaking records when she became the seventh-youngest player to win a WTA match. The youngest of the crop at 18, the all-American girl no longer has to worry about looking good on court. Climbing up the ranks without looking back, 5-foot-10 Keys is already under the watchful eye of her sponsor Nike.
Sponsors aren't the only ones taking notice. This week, top-four player Agnieszka Radwanska couldn't recall Keys name when she was asked who the most promising under-20 player is: "I forgot her name. Young, a tall American."
As soon as she was reminded of the teen's name, Radwanska had promising insights for the up-and-comer, stating that she "can play very good tennis." The Wimbledon finalist offered high hopes for the 18-year-old. "I think that girl will be, you know, I think top 20, top 30 very soon."
And we wouldn't doubt it. Keys started the season favorably, reaching the quarterfinals of Sydney as a qualifier before losing to Li Na in three sets. Her powerful game makes her a dangerous floater at tournaments.
With the uncertainty and lack of depth in the women's game, it's hard to say who will have the bigger breakthrough first. It's just a matter of who will get their chances and pounce on the opportunity. As we go deeper into 2013, keep an eye out for these four bold stars. They have come to make even bolder impressions.

You will need to update your Flash player.
Things have been good around here over the last year. I've lost 40 lbs. since October 2009, Marybeth is an RN working her dream job in an intensive care unit, Emma graduated preschool, and we were able to spend our 4th of July together.
In case you were wondering, my abs are pretty awesome. LOL. But I am a little too skinny for size 32 and have to buy the smallest size pants and stuff. Size 30 is a bit tough to find in the 'adult' section. Oh, and I shaved my crazy beard from over the winter.
I have over 10 years experience, including college course work, special development processes, darkroom work, studio lighting, and so on. I work almost entirely digital, but get out a film camera every now and then. Actually my Pentax is in need of repair, but after years with a DSLR I don't know if I'll ever go back.
If you are interested in some photography work and live in the Charlotte, NC area, please contact me. For examples of my work, visit my photo galleries.

Voter fraud investigation in Memphis
Maybe this election won't be over on Tuesday. Put your seatbelts on, folks.
On the eve of one of the nation's most contentious and intensely watched elections, investigators have opened a criminal probe into suspected early voting fraud in Shelby County.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is reviewing reports by the Shelby County Election Commission that two people voted twice during early voting in Memphis.
"Paid Political Advertisement"Dist. Atty. Gen. Bill Gibbons said Thursday he's referred the cases to the TBI for investigation along with other matters he declined to discuss.
"I can confirm that is one issue the TBI is investigating,'' Gibbons said. He and Election Commission Chairman Greg Duckett declined to release a letter sent to prosecutors detailing the suspected double voting.
Officials declined to say where the votes were cast; Shelby County had 19 early voting locations. Nor would they describe how the individuals were able to skirt computer safeguards.
More here.
From Newscoma: I just can't believe it. *snark*
From John Farmer: I had hoped that after all of the exposure that the District 29 election got last year, and with such a high profile Senate race being watched across the Nation, that the "machine� would be very careful not to put any hint of corruption into the race. I am disappointed to say that is simply not the case.
From Voting in Memphis: Well, it's nice to see someone is looking at this, but I've been getting daily updates and I've also been looking. Based on the data I've been given, I believe I have found 12 people whose votes have been cast twice. I'm not saying they did it, but the data I received shows twelve people who voted at two different early voting locations. As you might guess, I'm sending this file to the Election Commission and the Attorney General's Office for further investigation.
Interesting bit about people voting twice, but maybe someone else is doing that voting.
Today, my mother-in-law told me that a friend of hers went to vote early the other day, but she was told she already voted. Of course, she had not. They let her cast a provisional ballot, saying they would check it out. But, how can they do that? How can she prove it wasn't her? They claim she showed a driver's license the first time.
Both of them live in the heart of the Frayser area of Memphis. My mother-in-law is 89, and the other woman is elderly as well, but she's not senile, and she didn't vote twice.

For two years in a row, (MHS) graduates have battled the elements. Last year, a rainstorm threatened to end the ceremonies prematurely, however, this year the moisture hung in the air instead of falling from the sky.
Last night, 348 graduating seniors plodded thorough a humid, soupy haze—for which a heat advisory had been issued for Westchester County—to stand on stage briefly and pick up their diplomas before they left MHS to start a new chapter in their lives.
"You're a group that is thirsty for knowledge," said Principal Elizabeth Clain, about the Class of 2012, continuing, "You will encounter people that don't know your backstory...you will enter the next stage of your life with a blank slate, a tabula rasa."
Salutatorian Daniel Cruikshank urged the graduating class to, "relish the small, silly moments in life."
Valedictorian Sarah Blunt described how she had changed over four years, most notably from a, "frizzy-haired girl with braces," to someone who excels at the cello, math and science.
"Embrace your brilliance and your flaws," she told her fellow graduates, continuing, "Seek out your own adventure."
Senior Class President Jacob Seltzer presented the class gifts to MHS: bleachers for the visiting sports' team turf field and a plaque honoring MHS veterans of the Vietnam War.
As she has done in previous years, Ann Borsellino, president of the Mamaroneck Teachers Association, presented the only award given at MHS graduation: The Boothby Award, named in honor of Arthur Boothby, a Mamaroneck District superintendent from 1917-41. The award is given to the senior who "best exemplifies the values of public education." This year's winner was Dominique Jeanty, who came to Mamaroneck via Haiti and Brooklyn.
Before students tossed their hats sky high, Superintendent Dr. Robert Shaps congratulated the class on their accomplishments.
"My pleasure and sense of pride has been in watching you excel," he said.

The Board of Regents has hired a new Interim Director to oversee operations at the property over the next six to 12 months. In an email, Gunston Hall First Regent Wylie Raab announced that the temporary position will be held by Patrick Ladden, a former program director with the Corcoran College of Art and Design and chief of Project Management at the Museum of American History. HIs first day is Sept. 20.
"This action results from our efforts to work with the Commonwealth to increase the competitiveness of the Executive Director position," wrote Raab. "We anticipate beginning the recruitment process next Spring."
Gunston Hall is owned by the Commonwealth and is run by a Board of Regents (chosen from The National Society of the Colonial Dames of America). Former Executive Director , who was appointed to the position in 2003 by then-Gov. Mark Warner, was let go after a meeting of the Regents on April 16. He was harshly criticized for firing Gunston Hall's longtime education director last year, cutting back the grounds and eliminating educational events and programs.
The position, when filled, will have remained vacant for a year. "A year is a an unsusually long period to fill a position like this," said Mount Vernon District Supervisor Gerry Hyland to Patch. "Hopefully that time will be spent finding the right person. I think that people will rally behind whoever is selected and hopefully we're going down a different and new road for the future of that wonderful facility."
Gunston Hall librarian and archivist was named Interim Director after Reese was let go.
"The Regents commend and are indebted to Mark Whatford… for his exceptional performance in administering Gunston Hall for the past four months," wrote Raab. "The decision to retain an Interim Executive Director from outside the organization provides leadership and added professional support during this critical transition period."
Raab previously told Patch that an education director would not be hired until the Executive Director position is filled. But according to Raab's email, it appears that decision has changed.
"In the meanwhile, with open staff positions needing to be filled and key education and program decisions pending, the Regents recognize that additional management leadership and support is in the best interests of Gunston Hall at this time," she wrote. "The Interim Executive Director will serve only until an Executive Director is hired and is not a candidate for the Executive Director position."

New Castle News
Some golfers wait their entire lives and never hit a hole-in-one.
Not New Castle native Nick Sica — who collected three aces over an 11-day span earlier this month.
Sica, 66, recorded holes-in-one at Sunnehanna Country Club near Johnstown during a senior amateur event, and a pair at the New Castle Country Club between Sept. 8 and Sept. 19.
"Obviously, it's a pretty good accomplishment," said Sica, who splits his time between New Castle and La Quinta, Calif. with his wife of 45 years, Joan. "You don't expect to make three in that short of a period. I've been hitting the ball close to the hole a lot, so I guess it paid off."
The 1965 New Castle High graduate was playing with Greg Mokler and Bob Kain, both of La Quinta, when he recorded the first hole-in-one on the 182-yard No. 16 hole at Sunnehanna Country Club.
"The first one was at a senior amateur event at Sunnehanna," Sica said. "I hit a 6-iron on the 182-yard No. 16, but it was playing 190 yards that day."
Nos. 2 and 3 of the week came a little closer to home for Sica.
"The second and third were at the New Castle Country Club," he said. The second was on No. 7 and the third was on No. 13. He used a wedge on both of them.
Sica was playing with Rich Santillo, Dave Cunningham and Tom Horner when he posted the hole-in-one on No. 7 and Tom Elliott, Jeff Roud and Larry Baron on No. 13.
New Castle Country Club pro golfer Ned Weaver reported Sica's holes-in-one brought the course's total to eight on the year.
"I don't get too excited," said Sica, who golfed for the University of Houston in college and currently develops real estate. "All three were good shots. My friends get more excited than me, absolutely."
But after recording seven holes-in-one during almost six decades of golfing, who could blame him for not getting too excited.
"I just aim at the hole," said Sica, who has a handicap of three. "I've been golfing since I was eight when I started playing with my dad (Louis). My first hole-in-one was on Castle Hills' second hole when I was 16."
It should come as no surprise Sica's long game is better than his short game.
"My son is a sales representative for Adams Golf and he gave me a set of irons, so I attribute all my success to those irons," the elder Sica said with a chuckle about his son Mike, who golfed at the University of Oregon. Joan and Nick Sica also have a daughter, Kate, and three grandchildren. "My strength is distance — off the tee — and my irons. I'm an average putter, but my iron game is pretty good."

Blizzard Cochise Skis
- Get It For: $479.90
- Lengths: 170, 177, 185, 193
- Dimensions: 135 - 108 - 123
From the Editors of Freeskier:
Blizzard has carved out a niche for itself in this year's growing assortment of big-mountain skis. Blizzard's skis, with the Cochise at the forefront, excel in two related areas: carving and stability. These traits conspire to get you down the hill as fast as possible. Meanwhile, rocker in the tip and tail and zero camber underfoot keep you afloat and help charge through crud. "The Cochise is so strong that you want to keep pushing it further," said a tester, adding, "You better go fast on this ski; it is not for the weak of heart."

Last week was a tough one for Family Dollar, the discount retail chain that has applied for a permit to renovate the former Fashion 21 Trading store at 9435 Olive Blvd. and open in Olivette.
On Thursday, the retailer said the holiday sales period had been "disappointing" and it cut its earnings estimate for 2013. According to Fox Business, Family Dollar "now sees full-year earnings in the range of $3.95 to $4.20 from an earlier forecast of $4.10 to $4.40. Analysts on average are looking for full-year EPS of $4.24."
A Family Dollar spokesman said the news had not affected its plans to open the store in the Olivette Plaza shopping area. Family Dollar public relations manager Bryn R. Winburn told Patch in an email that the store "is slated to open in the first half of 2013."
- RELATED: Is Family Dollar Preparing to Open a Store in Olivette?
Bloomberg, in its report on the company on Thursday, quoted CEO Howard Levine from a statement, who said the holiday-selling season "proved to be more challenging than we expected as customers faced increasing financial uncertainty," and that customers are focusing "even more on basic needs."
The city of Olivette received an application from the company to renovate space in the Olivette Plaza shopping area, but "they haven't picked up their permit yet. It's ready for issue," said Carlos Trejo, Olivette planning and zoning administrator. "I don't know what the holdup is."
According to its website, the chain is planning to open 11 new stores around the country on Thursday.

Indian Point is soon to become the first nuclear plant in the nation operating without a license, according to CBS News and various other media outlets.
This evening officials are holding a public meeting at Tarrytown's DoubleTree Hotel to discuss results from 2012 safety assessments. Both Indian Point 2 and 3 plants, which are located in Buchanan, received a "green" rating indicating a "very low safety significance."
However, various environmental groups, including Riverkeeper and the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, plan to release their own safety findings today in Peekskill calling for the plant's closure.
Officials say it would take at least another year to complete the renewal process on the 40-year lease that expires in September. Plant operator Entergy aims for another 20 years.
From the Nuclear Regulatory Commission notice for tonight:
The open house is scheduled for 6-8 p.m. at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel, at 455 South Broadway in Tarrytown. It will provide an opportunity for attendees to hold one-on-one discussions with NRC staff members about the plant's 2012 performance and the agency's oversight of the facility. Beginning at 7 p.m., the NRC staff will conduct a public meeting at the same location. It will consist of a formal question-and-answer session regarding plant performance and oversight topics.
Will you be there? What do you think about the plant continuing to operate without a license? Weigh in below.

Blue Raiders open with 27-14 road setback
FAU wins season, SBC openerSeptember 1, 2007 · MT Media Relations
Middle Tennessee tailback Demarco McNair tries to elude a tackler during the first half at Florida Atlantic. (Bradley Lambert)
· Video: Game Highlights
· Photo Gallery
· Cumulative Stats
· Box Score
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Middle Tennessee made it interesting late but a 24-0 deficit proved too much to overcome as the Blue Raiders suffered a 27-14 loss to Florida Atlantic in the season opener for both teams at Lockhart Stadium Saturday afternoon.
The Middle Tennessee offense was limited to just 217 total yards, including only 18 on the ground, while the defense yielded 412 yards total offense to the Owls.
Quarterback Joe Craddock, making his first collegiate start, completed 20-of-32 passes for 199 yards, but he also threw two interceptions. The ground game was led by Demarco McNair and Phillip Tanner with 16 and 15 yards, respectively.
Desmond Gee for a 27-yard score. Matt King's point after cut the deficit to 24-7 with 12:01 remaining.
Special teams also factored into the scoring when freshman Jeremy Kellem blocked an Owls' punt and Michael Cannon scooped up the pigskin and raced 32 yards to make the score 24-14 with 12:01 remaining; however, it was too little, too late as the Owls already had established themselves on the scoreboard and on the field.
The Sun Belt Conference opener was all Florida Atlantic as the host dealt Middle Tennessee its first league road setback in five tries for second-year coach Rick Stockstill.
Florida Atlantic took advantage of two Middle Tennessee turnovers in the first half to stake claim to a 10-0 halftime lead. The first miscue occurred after the Blue Raider defense had forced a punt on the Owls' initial drive; however, the errant punt bounced off the leg of Kevin Brown and Florida Atlantic recovered at the Blue Raider 35.
Nine plays later Charles Pierre ran in from the 1 to cap a 9-play, 35-yard drive and give the Owls a 7-0 lead with 8:55 remaining. The game remained 7-0 until late in the first half when Craddock was intercepted by Corey Small at the 20 with 49 seconds remaining before the intermission.
Again, the Owls made the turnover hurt when Warley Leroy connected for a 30-yard field goal with 23 seconds remaining to give Florida Atlantic a 10-0 lead entering the half.
Despite trailing 10-0 at the break, Middle Tennessee's defense actually performed well considering the amount of time it was on the field and the fact that all 10 Florida Atlantic points came off turnovers.
Given the offensive troubles plaguing Middle Tennessee throughout the contest, the Owls made it even more difficult when tight end Jason Harmon hauled in a short pass from quarterback Rusty Smith and rambled 42 yards down the sideline. The extra point gave the Owls a 17-0 lead with 2:36 remaining.
Florida Atlantic tacked on another score at the start of the fourth quarter when Smith connected with Cortez Gent for a 14-yard score and the Owls went ahead 24-0 with 14:05 remaining.
After Middle Tennessee had cut the lead to 24-14, Florida Atlantic answered back with a long drive to go on top 27-14 on Leroy's 27-yard field goal with 4:55 remaining.
The Blue Raiders return to action when they travel to No. 10-ranked Louisville Thursday.
FIRST TIME STARTERS: A total of three players made their first collegiate starts today against Florida Atlantic in the 2007 season opener. The first time starters were: QB Joe Craddock, LB Danny Carmichael, and LB Derek Shropshire.
FIRST ACTION: Middle Tennessee had 14 players make their collegiate playing debuts at FAU on Saturday. They were: Kevin Brown, Dwight Dasher, David DeFatta, Mark Fisher, Josh Gregory, Andrew Harrington, Ivon Hickmon, Rod Issac, Jeremy Kellem, Jamal Lewis, Jacob Longoria, Ted Riley, Gary Tucker, and Adam Wade.
KELLEM GETS BLOCK: True freshman Jeremy Kellem from nearby North Lauderdale, Fla., came up big when he blocked a punt midway through the fourth quarter that Michael Cannon returned for a touchdown. It marked the second blocked kick under Rick Stockstill (first punt) and the first punt block by the Blue Raiders since Sean Mosley recorded one against Troy in 2005. Overall in the FBS (I-A) era, MT has blocked a total of 21 kicks in 93 games.
HONEYCUTT, CANNON HAVE CAREER DAYS: Receivers Patrick Honeycutt and Michael Cannon turned in career performances in the season opener against FAU. Honeycutt, playing in his first collegiate game, hauled in six receptions for 41 yards, while Cannon added three catches for 34 yards. Cannon came into the FAU game with just three career receptions.
RARE PENALTIES: The most penalties Middle Tennessee had in a game all of 2006 were 10, which occurred twice; however, the Blue Raiders were penalized 10 times for 81 yards in the season opener against Florida Atlantic.
SEASON OPENERS: The loss to FAU dropped Middle Tennessee's record to 3-4 in Sun Belt Conference openers and dropped its overall record in season openers to 56-33-2.
CRADDOCK DEBUT: Junior quarterback Joe Craddock made his first collegiate start at FAU and completed a personal-best 20 passes on 32 attempts. Craddock, who also had a career-best 199 passing yards, entered the FAU contest with just nine career completions. He had his first career touchdown pass in the fourth quarter when he shuffled a short toss to Desmond Gee for a 27-yard score.
QUICK HITTERS: In honor of the 32 victims killed on the Virginia Tech campus in April, Middle Tennessee wore a VT sticker on the back of its helmets ... Last year in conference road games the Blue Raiders allowed just 17 total points and they gave up 17 today against FAU ... OT Franklin Dunbar made his team-best 19th straight start today ... MT did not have its first offensive snap until 7:24 remaining in the first quarter ... Phillip Tanner's first career rush went for 14 yards in the second quarter ... Jamal Lewis started the second half at left guard in place of Richard Bortner ... Desmond Gee now has at least one touchdown in seven of the last eight games ... Matt King made his first career PAT when he connected in the fourth quarter ... MT lost its first SBC road game under Rick Stockstill with the loss to FAU ... WR Michael Cannon scored his first collegiate touchdown when he returned a blocked punt 32 yards in the fourth quarter ... MT fell to 10-31 in the I-A era on natural grass.

Live Blogging: Full House Drinking Game
February 9, 2012 § 6 Comments
Trying something new tonight.
My roommate Jon and I have a Full House drinking game. I'm going to be live-blogging it in an effort to see what happens when I A) Live Blog and more importantly B) Blog when I'm drunk.
I don't know what I hope to accomplish but I know what I hope I don't accomplish: Breaking the shit out of my MacBook. I just bought this son of a bitch like two months ago.
Here are the rules to the Full House drinking game:
Drink when
- Danny mentions cleaning
- A catch phrase is used, such as: "You got it dude," "How rude," "Have mercy," or "Cut. It. Out."
- When somebody says Comet
- When somebody makes fun of Kimmy Gibler
- When Jesse mentions his hair
- When Joey does a voice
- When "the music" plays
- When there's a hug
To start out this game, I'll be drinking a large Arrogant Bastard, and then moving onto Coors Light when that's done. Because it's a lot easier to drink shitty bear if you pre-game with a good beer. I pre-funk beer with beer.
We're also going to be trying to Podcast this experiment, and we'll see what happens. If it turns into something listenable, then I'll share it. Honestly, I've never podcasted before, so who knows! Probably useless!
Stay tuned for more updates throughout the night. First update coming soon!
6:57 – Had a shot of Makers Mark and half of my Arrogant Bastard. The festivities begin in 5 minutes!!!!!!
7:04 – Podcast begins…. NOW! Well, for me. That doesn't mean shit to you right now. We will be watching season 1, episode 13, entitled "Sisterly Love" DJ Auditions for a cereal commercial. "Green eyed monster" is in the description.
7:15 – 5 minutes into the podcast. Pretty drunk already. Kinda. Hard to write, podcast, and watch Full House.
7:29 – Getting kind of drunk, but still typing pretty well. This is not yet successful!
Talking about Leonardo DiCaprio, and our biggest crushes in high school. This is probably a major fail. But that's okay. Fails are what make the world collapse.
7:35 – One episode down! Basically watched none of it, but did continue to drink and get drunk. Have any of you ever gotten drunk before?
7:47 – Onto season 8, episode 1. We skipped over ALL of the good Michelle seasons.
7:53 – Roger Lodge of Blind Date is the dummer in Jesse and the Rippers.
8:00 – This is DJs boyfriend for a short moment in season 8:
8:02 – We can NEVER release this podcast. It's the most offensive thing ever.
8:26 – How can I get a drunker to make this more entertaining? I'm drinking as hard as I can!!!
8:27 – We are now watching season 4, episode 21. "The Hole In The Wall Gane"
I mean gang! First fuck up!
Okay, let's talk about this episode for a second, its one of the most interesting episodes of a TV show ever. Most shows have a moral and people learn their lesson. HOWEVER! In this episode, DJ and Stephanie make a hole in Danny's bedroom wall and cover it up. You'd think they get caught and that Danny talks to them about fucking up, but NO. They get away with it and sing the "Dad dad dad" song and NEVER GET CAUGHT. Visa vee, they never learn a lesson! They never learn that it's wrong to fuck up someone else's property. The moral is "Fuck up, cover it up, you'll be okay."
That's what makes it one of the most important episodes of television ever, because the show that's all about morals says, "FUCK MORALS! WE DO WHAT WE WANT! We'll get away With it!"
Full House, The Hole In The Wall Gang.
8:42 – OK. Update. Still getting drunk but hard to pay attention to Full House. Now listening to Music. However, when I typed Houe it didn't come up as an incorrect spelling so I'll have to find out what Houe means.
Houp has a squiggly red line.
Hore doesn't.
Houas does.
Housr does.
Huse does NOT.
8:45 – Do you ever Tweet my articles or follow me on Twitter? @casetines Shameless plug.
8:46 – I think I'll learn a lot about myself through this process. By the way, I talked to the girl that "dumped" me yesterday. She read what I wrote about her. It was… "interesting."
8:52 – I think I know now why people don't podcast drunk. ITS HARD. But I am determined to master it.
Cause I drink a lot.
Okay, which character on Full House is the hottest:
Becky, THEN.
Dj, NOW
Stephanie, NOW
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, NOW
I say… it's like this:
DJ Now (Candace Cameron)
Becky, THEN
Stephanie NOW (Sweeten)
And the Olsen Twins now.
Mary Kate and Ashley spiked in the whole "18 countdown" and then got weird. But seriously, am I right?
8:58 – Let's find a way to make a funny full house picture, shall we?
9:06 – Thats pretty ridiculously hot though huh?
I worked as an extra on a show here in Hollywood a couple of years ago and saw Candace Cameron, because she was on the show. It was about gymnastics. Eight is enough or something, it was called. She looks pretty good.
9:13 – What's your 10 favorite 80s songs?
9:20 – Lost track of everything. Most important key about tonight: Keep your fingers on the home row and you won't fuck up your typing. That shit is so engrained into your psyche that it's insane. Ooh, I just got a text back from this girl. While I typed this. And now I'm telling you. Why though? Either you don't care or you do by you don't know the context. Okay, here's the context: We went out once. She's six years older than me, but she's so gorgeous. That's the context? damn, i need ot work on finding better context. oh, i guess i stopped caring about fixing my spelling. is that how you know youre drunk? i guess so.
9:30 – I am still drinking. Now we are listening to music. Sorry Full House?
9:38 – Apparently, I temporarily changed the name of this post to "QZ" Which I don't remember doing but this is what happens people. It reminds me of Queensland. I've been there BEE TEE DUBS. Its awesome. Go live in Australia.
Holy shit, I stopped talking about Full House for TOO LONg. Let's talk about it. Jodi Sweetin… what a hottie. Stopp smoking that crank, amirite?
9:44 – Remember that picture of Jodi Sweetin?
Holy shit.
9:49 – It's time to look at candace cameron though, am i right?
Oh Mylanta? She was a bit thicker when I met her. I don't discriminate between thick or skinny. I just don't remember her being this
She definitely looks like she passed out on a treadmill a time or two.
9:53- have you ever tried to crumble your own empire?
10:02 – doing this alone now. is anyone still with me? im drinking and listening to music. holy shit this live blog became a chatroom of sort didnt it? except no one is chatting with me. Lol? or lol :(? lol.
10:06 – has it really only been four minutes?
10:16 – okay, what does kimmy gibler look like now?
yep. that's about right.
10:27 – It's almost 10:30 and I'm considering getting dressed and going out. This is how I get "crunk" as it were. I believe it was Shakespeare that said "If one is to get drunk in a time of the monarchy, than one should get crunk for thy biotches and thy wenches. Am I not right?"
It is now 10:41 and I don't know if I should stay or should I go. but… let's look at Becky?
Am I a horrible person? She's gorgeous.
