My wife texted at 4:47pm to ask if I wanted a free ticket from our neighbor for a 7:15pm show of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at Barclays Center. I'm a rabid fan of most of Nick Cave's music, but I had not bought a ticket to this show because, frankly, the prospect of seeing Nick Cave in a basketball stadium filled me with dread. U2, Jay-Z, Bon Jovi, sure. But Nick Cave? Who I last saw at the Beacon, and previously at the Prospect Park Bandshell? It seemed morally wrong. Still, I couldn't say no.
I subwayed home, gulped down a Trader Joe's Mahi Mahi burger, and walked down the street to the stadium whose construction my band had played a fundraiser against in 2004.
After negotiating my way through the metal detector (yes, that's leftover Hanukah gelt from last year in my coat pocket), I roamed around in spirals looking for an elevator, walking like the dead among leather-jacketed, black-lipsticked weekend goth warriors and other Brooklyn pseudo-hipster parents like myself, circling the widening concrete gyre whose very hot dog vendors seemed at odds with the event at hand.
I entered the arena from near its apex, vommed out towards the nothingness of space from which a downward glance found a spec of stage occupied by an opening band that, from approaching the tunnel into the seating, I had thought was piped in Depeche Mode or Cure music.
I found my assigned seat and then found a better seat down the empty row from it while the shadow-clad Cigarettes after Sex front man reminded me of what an interesting songwriter Morrissey was in his heyday by contrast. From the upper decks, the home of the Brooklyn Nets, even with the lights down, looked like a ghost town, a haunted stadium, the Grand Canyon.
I texted my wife: "Not a great venue for Nick Cave."
Cigarettes after Sex finished without climaxing and all the lights in the venue went up, killing whatever was left of the mood by illuminating a sea of barren seats on every level. Even the standing room crowd only filled a third of the floor at the foot of the stage. This was just depressing.
And then lights went back down and the Bad Seeds entered to a wave of applause. And now, thunderous applause: Nick Cave himself appeared. As if by magic, a new gust of fans had swept in, especially below, such that the stadium looked a little more respectably full.
This concert, I'll pause to note, was not specifically in support of any recently released album, though it fell roughly a year after the band's Skeleton Tree, a somber statement of grief recorded just after one of Nick Cave's teenage twins died from a fall off a cliff in Brighton, England. The first two songs of the set were from that album, commencing the show with a painful moan instead of a bang. "Jesus Alone" calls drug addicts, young girls, and African doctors harvesting tear ducts to Cave's voice and "Magneto" recounts clutching the toilet bowl in the bathroom and having homicidal instincts in supermarket queues.
Then, a tone shift into a funky groove and Nick Cave, at age 61, was dancing his patented lunatic baboon strut across, around, down to the edge of, and over the boundaries of the stage. He had audience members hold his chest while he leaned onto them, insisting that they listen to and explicitly feel his heart going "boom-boom-boom" in the midst of his recent Miley Cyrus-infused "Higgs Boson Blues" (from 2014's Push the Sky Away, now played in the very venue from whence her twerk was heard around the world). "You're not listening!" he admonished his acolytes with mock cruelty, in reference to his heartbeat. Laughter echoed up from the swaying masses.
Not until the fourth song of the set did Cave venture back to his recently re-released 1994 dark water mark album Let Love In and its lead track "Do You Love Me?" The same album's stunningly articulated "Loverman" and the concert requirement "Red Right Hand," separated by 1984's "From Her to Eternity," acknowledged the black lipstick in the house.
Everything Nick Cave does is for his audience, whoever they are, and everything the Bad Seeds do is for the betterment of Nick Cave. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds of October 2018, though, were grieving their longtime pianist Conway Savage, who died in September. They seemed in that raw and acutely vulnerable state of creativity that only grief allows. There was music inside the music I hadn't heard before, something unlocked. Nick Cave's wingman—because he actually flaps his arms and electric violin around stage as if they were wings—is the bearded Warren Ellis, and he was in particularly fine, frantic form. The Bad Seeds are literally the most dynamic of bands—going from ear-shattering fighter formation noise to threateningly quiet undertow drone in a heartbeat (boom-boom-boom), peaking and subduing themselves with a precision that a good marine might embrace. Lighting effects accentuate the progression towards apocalypse— sharp, blazing flashes hitting in rhythm with the bells clanged on "Red Right Hand," swooping down to a crimson glow to accompany the rhythmic rattle of a lizard who's just snatched a dragonfly and now devours it in contemplation.
In keeping with the dynamism within each song, Cave always offers at least a few quiet piano ballads in the center of his sets for which he ceases his roaming over the stomping field of the stage. On this night he played "The Ship Song" and "Into My Arms," concert standards, both beautiful in their simplicity and craftsmanship. Cave's surprise of the night was the piano-grounded "Shoot Me Down," with the introduction of Warren Ellis as a flautist on it. I knew "Shoot Me Down" from Cave's Rarities and B-Sides 3-volume album. The crowd below recognized it, too, with their applause. "Oh, you know that one, huh?" said Cave, with something akin to humility.
Allow me to take a painful pause here to dwell on the fact that the collected imagery of Nick Cave pulls from violent acts such as shooting people down. His most popular album, Murder Ballads, features an epic account of a mass shooting at a bar from the killer's demonic perspective. Classic Nick Cave albums through the mid-1990s offer rituals of blood and lust that ultimately resolve into redemptive peace. The murders, particularly the shootings, are essential to the experience.
This particular concert happened the night before an anti-Semitic lunatic killed eleven Jewish people in their synagogue in Pittsburgh. Except for the tirade against Jews, that killer could easily have been the protagonist in a Nick Cave song. It's troubling, it's real; it happened and it still happens– both the acts of mass and often bigoted violence and the Nick Cave songs that exploit the very acts that horrify us the next day.
And yet, "Shoot Me Down" has a lovely melody and Warren Ellis is a sensitive flute player.
Through the slow, slutty burn of "Jubilee Street" and by the start of the driving "Weeping Song" Nick Cave had gone so far into his audience that he disappeared among their massed bodies entirely. His voice still rang out from somewhere within the standing crowd. And then he triumphantly emerged behind them on a raised square platform, from where he led the synchronized clapping portion of the song.
Nick Cave in concert has much in common with children's performers. His songs offer calls and responses, singalong choruses, and expected physical reactions. Sometimes he wants the audience under him to raise its arms as one and lower them together, like they were doing group yoga in the middle of Prospect Park. "The Weeping Song" asks that the audience clap rigorously and vigorously, making mariachi rain, until he cuts them off with a wide conductor's sweep of the arms. I admit now that my preference for the "The Ship Song" over "The Weeping Song" is as great as Warren Ellis' violin feedback is loud. And yet, Cave's command over his masses is profound and most visible here. If he asked his audience to hop on one foot and do the hokey-pokey, they would do it without blanching.
Large yellow balloons appeared and bounced over the crowd at Cave's feet, and the crowd tried to playfully swat them toward the platformed Cave, who sniped that the balloons were the venue's ideas and threatened with sincere profanity against anybody taking his photograph with them.
Back to the stage, Nick Cave led a throng of about twenty people from the floor to join him and the band for what has become his traditional penultimate song: "Stagger Lee."
This is the great exorcism. Cave careens through the violence of his updated folk fable about a man who shoots the bartender in the head, gets taken home by the lascivious Nellie Brown, gets cautioned by her about her man Billy Dilly, who Stagger Lee promises to sodomize, though when he meets him only has him "slobber on his head" before shooting him in his. Then the devil shows up and Stagger Lee kills him, too. The lucky audience members on stage gyrate like the writhing bodies in Dante's Inferno under Cave's command (put your left foot in and shake it all about…), laughing with him and themselves as they cast aside their social mores and embrace their glorious ids, knowing their images are blasted across the Barclays jumbotrons and are likely to be featured prominently in subsequent concert reviews.
Finally, graphically violent orgy ended, Cave waves the onstage audience to sit down where they are and he serenades them with "Push the Sky Away"—which has turned from a reflective closing track into, as I witnessed it, a sort of anthem about surviving grief and depression. On the aforementioned jumbotron (I certainly couldn't see it with my bare eyes from where I was), a balding man in glasses clutched desperately onto Nick Cave's hand and visibly wept as he kept on pushing the sky away with him. In Nick Cave this man had found his own personal Jesus.
"Thank you, New York!" said Nick Cave as he hugged audience members and let them return to their rightful places.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds left stage and shortly after returned back for a three-song encore: "City of Refuge," followed by "Mercy Seat" ("Warren reminded me I had to play that one"), ending with another singalong, this time wordless, of a particularly catchy descant from 2016's "Rings of Saturn." Oo-oo-wee-oo-ee-oo.
Thank you, and good night!

Prior to the birth of my now 16-year-old daughter, I was a practicing behavioural therapist, specialising in children with autism and complex learning and behavioural difficulties.
When my daughter became ill at just 19 months old, life would never quite be the same again. She was diagnosed with her first autoimmune disease which developed into multiple autoimmune diseases and required a four-year chemotherapy regime to suppress her immune system at just 3 years old. The treatment was gruelling and made her so unwell.
Having always been interested in the importance of food as medicine, I knew I had to make immediate changes to regain control of her failing health but couldn't find guidance to help me make life affecting decisions. Despite meeting some inspiring people, I didn't feel there was that one person that could tie it all together, connect the dots, answer all my questions and support our progression back to health. So, I set about digging to answer my own questions.
I wanted to share my first-hand experience, my learning and determination to inspire and support others to achieve wellness, so I began the journey to create the 'no stone unturned' approach to wellness by studying nutritional therapy with The College of Naturopathic Medicine. My hunger for developing further knowledge to answer my favourite question; WHY? Why do people get sick, WHY do people experience the symptoms they do, and WHY are they not responding to medical treatment?
I embarked on my functional training in 2011 and in 2013 finally fulfilled my desire to gain the skills to support a client to dig deep into the underlying causes of their disease. Graduating as the first functional medicinal practitioner in the UK from the Institute for Functional Medicine.
I completed my Fellowship in Integrative Cancer to further develop my understanding on the importance of leaving no stone unturned, digging until we find the underlying reason behind this disease in order to reboot and rebuild the body for quality of life and wellness.
In my job, no two days are ever the same. I wake up everyday eager to explore new challenges and fight for health and wellbeing. My clients, the families I work with and the students I teach and practitioners I mentor continually inspire me to keeping making a difference.
As well as my busy functional medicine practice that can support people throughout the whole of the UK, I continue to lecture at an undergraduate lecture for The College of Naturopathic Medicine to share my passion and expertise with practitioners of the future. I also lecture internationally at a post-graduate level where I share innovative research coupled with clinical expertise.

4 out of 4 stars
Share This Review
And Then I Met Margaret by Rob White is a self-helping and a motivational book, which portrays the author's life starting from his childhood. Even though he comes from humble beginnings, he manages to become very successful in real estate and restaurant business. His success is followed by the gain of material wealth, and he starts experiencing a feeling of inner emptiness. Because of this, he begins seeking spiritual guidance from gurus to live a joyful life. However, these "gurus" are the unacknowledged people, who he encounters throughout his life. These gurus help Rob to awaken spiritually and change his mindset.
The book consists of 21 chapters ranging from his childhood moments to working in a factory mill. The story is quite diverse and each chapter consists of Rob's awakening moments. The readers won't get tired of reading the book since there are many different characters introduced that helped change his life. You may meet a graduate student, a Maasai mother, or even a peanut vendor, who help Rob gain a deeper understanding of life. Their mindsets, personalities and backgrounds differ, but in the end, all of the characters are very interesting and help the author to be more open-minded.
In order to make the book more interesting and easier to read, the author begins each chapter with a myth that he always thought was right and ends with his experiences and conclusions. This type of format helps readers know what to expect right from the beginning. While some of the stories and myths seem unimpressive and slightly boring, there are many personal stories that keep the readers hooked.
The simple writing style, the engaging plot and the beautiful choice of words helped to draw a vivid picture of the book. I felt as if Rob was talking to me in reality, and telling me about his experiences. The book made me think that I was witnessing an event take place in front of my eyes. The casual tone was soothing, as if it was inviting me to transform myself and seek happiness.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars, and I suggest it to the readers, who are seeking for an advice and want to help themselves. After reading this book, your eyes will open to the new possibilities, and your whole life may change. You may start acknowledging "teachers" who can help you and the myths that surround your daily life.
And Then I Met Margaret

- X-ray Powder Diffraction Study of Hexagonal Turkey Egg-white Lysozyme
Obtaining the atomic structure of a large macromolecule like a protein depends upon the availability of good quality single crystals, the growth of which entails considerable skill and dedication. The conditions for optimal crystal growth must be painstakingly investigated, and a microcrystalline powder often precipitates instead of the sought-after crystal. Following the recent reports of crystal structure refinement [1] and solution [2] of some small proteins from powder diffraction data, the notion of obtaining at least some structural data from the powder looks potentially attractive, especially given the very high quality powder-diffraction patterns that can be measured at a modern synchrotron-radiation source. Despite all efforts, some materials of interest appear stubbornly to resist forming single crystals, the availability of the powder technique thus widens the spectrum of samples which might be investigated. Moreover, powder diffraction measurements can also give a range of complementary information beyond that which can be obtained from a single crystal. For example, the peak shapes depend on the microstructure of the material, accurate unit cell parameters can easily be determined, and the sample generally survives under more varied or extreme conditions. Here we report on our attempts to apply powder diffraction techniques to simple proteins.
In the present study, the structure of turkey egg-white lysozyme (TEWL) has been refined from high-resolution X-ray powder diffraction data. The sample was obtained in a polycrystalline form via rapid precipitation at high protein concentration using a 0.5 M NaCl solution (pH = 6) and the diffraction data were collected at room temperature employing the High-resolution Powder Diffraction (ID31) and the Materials Science (ID11) beamlines. Our structural analysis was initiated with a structural model that had previously been derived from single crystal data (PDB entry: 1TEW). Molecular replacement was shown to give a suitable starting point for refinement, illustrating that powder data can be sufficient for this approach. Crystallographic models were then refined by combined Rietveld and stereochemical restraint analysis of the powder data (dmin = 3.35 Å) resulting in the extraction of reliable lattice parameters and the refinement of the molecular conformation (Figure 32). The structure is hexagonal (Sp. group: P6122; a = 71.0945(3) Å, c = 85.0371(5) Å) with 12 symmetry related molecules in the unit cell, in agreement with previous studies.
Fig. 32: The Rietveld fit for sample crystallised at pH 6 and 295 K ( = 0.700667 Å, ID31 data). Open Symbols: data, red line: final calculated pattern, black line: difference between the experimental data and the final refined model. The bars represent the Bragg reflections corresponding to the hexagonal structural model. The background intensity has been subtracted for clarity. The profile has been expanded by a factor of 10 at Bragg angles larger than 4º. Inset: Selected region of the Rietveld fit in the 2 region, 4°-6°. The profile has been expanded by a factor of 10 for clarity.
TEWL is a relatively compact structure, comprising 8 helices and 4 anti-parallel ß-sheets. The overall and secondary structural topology of the powder structure are essentially the same as in the previously determined single-crystal structures with a few slight differences mainly in the regions of the flexible loops and the C and N-termini of the molecule. The average RMS deviation of the Ca positions, after aligning the original (PDB entry: 1TEW) and refined structures, was determined to be 0.95 Å over 128 residues. The deviation between the structures may arise in part due to the differences in the structural resolution of the data (dmin = 1.65 Å for 1TEW and 3.35 Å for the powder structure). The Ramachandran plot for the main-chain torsion angles (,) indicated that there were no torsion angles falling in disallowed regions.
Low temperature experiments indicated how strategies for cryocooling and cryoprotecting samples might be more easily developed with powdered samples. In this case, we have observed a significant contraction in TEWL upon freezing (Figure 33). Interpretation of the very low-resolution data obtained below the freezing point of the mother liquor would seem to indicate that the channels in the structure expand significantly and the protein becomes packed much more closely together.
Fig. 33: Diffraction profiles plotted as a function of temperature (vertical axis) collected while warming the TEWL sample through the freezing transition at beamline ID11. Inset: Refined conformation of TEWL (pH 6.0) at RT illustrated as ribbon.
These results illustrate that powder diffraction methods can provide a wealth of complementary information about the structure of protein crystals. Molecular replacement techniques can be used to find out how the molecule packs into a unit cell for a particular structural modification. The molecular structure may also be refined by using stereochemical restraints in addition to the usual Rietveld method for powder profile refinement.

Subsidizing Fuel: Still The Worst of Our Policies
The Boston Globe shows why Fuel Subsidies are a global problem, and why Venezuela urgently needs to quit fooling around and end its own.
The Boston Globe shows why Fuel Subsidies are a global problem:
The tragedy of fuel subsidies is that the half-a-trillion dollars that nations around the globe devote to them could be much better used, as research directed by my organization, the Copenhagen Consensus, shows.
The UN has adopted a wide range of developmental targets to improve conditions for the world's poorest people by 2030. We asked top economists worldwide, including several Nobel laureates, to analyze the social, economic, and environmental costs and benefits of all these targets. In trying to figure out where each dollar of spending could do the most good, we've found that doing away with fossil fuel subsidies would be one of the most beneficial actions developing countries could take.
Our research, by economists Isabel Galiana and Amy Sopinka, finds that every dollar diverted away from energy subsidies would bring $15 in benefits. The billions of dollars governments would save could benefit hundreds of millions of people by improving health, nutrition, and education instead, all while slashing CO2 emissions, pollution, and congestion.

text: As you know balayage means in French "to sweep or to paint" in other words it is hair coloring technique which is literally painted onto the hair. Once you're in it, it's hard to understand what hair experts are talking about! New hair trends are constantly emerging, of course, with different terms. Those who are interested in their hair and beauty need to know these terms, although they know a lot of beauty and don't want to be unaware of trends.


text: It is an interesting topic how the ionosphere varies when solar extreme ultraviolet (EUV) irradiance decreases far below normal levels. When extrapolating the total electron content (TEC)-EUV relation, significantly negative TECs at the zero solar EUV point are obtained, which indicates that TEC-EUV variation under extremely low solar EUV (ELSE) conditions does not follow the TEC-EUV trend during normal solar cycles. We suggest that there are four types of nonlinear TEC-EUV variations over the whole EUV range from zero to the solar maximum level. The features of the ionosphere under ELSE conditions were investigated using the TEC extrapolated with cubic TEC-EUV fitting. With the constraint of zero TEC at zero EUV, the cubic fitting takes not only observations but also the trend of the ionosphere (only an extremely weak ionosphere can exist when EUV vanishes) into account. The climatology features of TEC under ELSE conditions may differ from those during normal solar cycles at nighttime. Ionospheric dynamic processes are supposed to still significantly affect the ionosphere under ELSE conditions and induce this difference. With solar EUV decreasing, global electron content (GEC) should vary largely in accordance with the GEC-EUV trend during normal solar cycles, and the seasonal fluctuation of GEC declines, owing to the contraction of the ionosphere.

Here, she shares her top grocery shopping tips.
Grocery stores have revolutionized! There is a greater selection of health products with an equal amount of health food gimmicks that appeal to us through billions of dollars of targeted marketing. Stay focused and avoid the bright shiny label temptation! Even seasoned advice – like "stick to the perimeter for healthy options" – may be dangerous to follow. I've done it and walked right past the produce and straight into the ice cream aisle. I was completely sidetracked from some mid-aisle multi-tasking superfood ingredients. Clearly, an update is needed! Use the following grocery shopping tips to ensure your basket is loaded with the good stuff at checkout.
Can you eat before you go to calm your hunger signals? Super! Oops, find yourself in the produce aisle absolutely hangry? Grab a meat stick or a pack of almonds and yes, eat it! (You are not stealing, you can pay for it at the end.) If you're stressed, angry, or excited post-work, you're likely to leave with a basket of comfort food! Mood is a huge factor in the foods we choose. In these situations, it's best to make, take, and stick to a list before you enter the store.
RELATED: What Does Food Freedom Mean?
Now I sound condescending. Hear me out! If your list says potatoes, but another starch alternative like butternut squash is on sale and it's seasonal, grab it. For just as much nutrients – if not more, since it's likely a fresh local option – you've let flexibility work in your favor! This versatility not only saves you money but also diversifies your diet to prevent health burnout.
"A 50-cent coupon for non-dairy, sugar-free creamer? Ugh, I need this!" I am a sucker for coupons. But now that my neglected back shelf is full of these coupon products, I always ask myself: do you actually eat that coupon food on a regular basis? The answer is, "No, you love Vital Proteins Gingerbread Collagen Creamer and don't need anything else!" Now, I only pursue coupons that fit my lifestyle and my normal diet! Between Ibotta, Whole Foods, and my Sprouts app, I have enough deals to choose from. But if it's sugar laden or a sweet treat, you can bet I'm holding off.
RELATED: 3 Popular Health Tips That Aren't Actually Healthy
Not all products are the same and with the surge in health awareness, companies are marketing themselves to look more nutritious, even when they aren't. Watch these categories that tend to go from "eat this!" to "not that!" very quickly.
Oh nuts! To get the most nutrition out of this crunchy fat source, choose an organic version that is sprouted or soaked. This process ensures easier digestion and the removal of harmful phytates. Traditional roasting is usually performed in a low-quality, pro-inflammatory oil at high heats that causes nuts to go rancid quickly. Even dry roasting can denature some of their vital nutrients. Don't lie to yourself about those dark chocolate-covered versions either; they're delicious but they aren't nutrient-rich.
Plant-based milk is all the rage these days! Although all dairy milk has equal sugar per cup (~12g), plant-based milk widely varies. From almond and oat to cashew and hemp, no label must be left uncovered! My recent naive oat milk purchase contained 16g of sugar per serving, eek! A good rule of thumb? If there are added oils and sugar, it is not worth the perceived benefits and there should be less than 5 ingredients if it's non-dairy.
The yogurt arena boasts plenty of options, from whole milk to Skyr and Greek. Across the board, "light" is a word I aim for patients to steer clear of as they are loaded with honey, sugar, syrup, or fruit to make up for the lack of satiating fat removed. Overall, both Greek and Skyr yogurts with a heavier texture contain more protein and are a better-balanced option. If you love the fruit-on-top yogurts, put a healthier spin on them by adding in fresh fruit. The actual yogurt should contain more protein than sugar (less than 8g).
It's usually not about what we're buying but why we're buying it. Are you hitting up the store after work every day for a candy bar? Are you grabbing a bottle of wine every Friday? Consider the purpose of your grocery basket. Is it for fuel? Are the items in your cart helping or hindering your body's success? Just some food for thought.

Two Of my favorite people got married this weekend. Keri and Jayson – congrats!
They have been engadged for about 2 years, the wedding was scheduled to occur, "when they have enough money saved" . They have the happy ending a lot of people envy and lack which is why our divorce rate is so high but, I digress. They truly found a best friend and lover in one another – thanks to that fateful day when Keri forgot her jacket and J offered her his. Sadly his mom is losing her battle with time. About 3 weeks ago I get an email with the Wedding invite attached. I rapidly respond with a YES YES -I can not miss this RSVP and am surprised at how soon the wedding is. J responds, and I cry out of happiness and love. His mother has had cancer and it has progressively become worse.It's terminal and is not doing well.
The wedding was held at the San Luis Resort in Galveston (thumbs up). It was a small wedding, 60 of their closest family and friends (honored to be invited) Keri was stunning as always. With the exception of my sisters and sister-in-laws, I do not believe I have seen a bride glow as she did. Jayson, always the good looking edgy jokester looked sharp. The ceremony was performed on the lawn with the background of the gulf. As they were announced, Mr. & Mrs. Brooks and walked away a roaring round of applause was heard. High on the balconies was roughly 200 people, obviously this was better than pay per view.
The reception was held in the resort ball room. Keri and her father danced to some country song. Then came the mother son dance. J – picked his mother up from the wheelchair and glided her across the floor dancing to Wind Beneath My Wings. Not a dry eye in the room.
Later that night I ran into some old school friends. It was great to see them all out again. I smile at how we have all changed and are the same group of goobers who still make me laugh. Like a rare gem kept in a lock box, you cherish their friendship even though you don't see them very often.

Amazon May Give Kindles To Prime Members
Rumors are floating around the Internet that Amazon is considering giving Kindles to Amazon Prime members.
CNET reports: "There are more rumors fluttering around Seattle that at some point, likely the holiday season of 2011, Amazon will start giving away its Kindle e-book reader for free, likely to select (as in Prime) members. And as the e-book market expands, the possibility is looking more and more likely."
Giving away Kindles to its biggest users would be an excellent way to help eBook sales and would give Amazon all kinds of marketing potential for pushing eBooks through bundles. Amazon already sells Kindles for only $139, and doesn't make as much on the devices as they do on eBooks themselves.
Do you think it is worth it for Amazon to do this?
