I would like to sign up to an affiliate network but CJ require a million dollars in sales! If I had that, to be frank, I'd be on the beach!
Does anyone know of an affiliate network that allows small advertisers with sales in the 20-50k region annually, and obviously looking to increase.
Just to be clear, we are advertisers, not publishers. We want to offer pay per lead and pay per sale commissions.

"Derrick Story has done an outstanding job of beginning at the beginning, taking you to the end without complicating the topic with a lot of jargon and simply presenting what you need to know. Think of it as your cousin Derrick showing you how to use your camera to take pictures."

A economia clássica contra os fatos ou Sismondi entre os ricardianos
This paper deals with the debate which opposed Sismondi and the Ricardian economists, in the first half of the nineteenth century, on the equilibrium of markets, the role of competition and the effects of machinery in industrial societies. At the initial section, the main content of Sismondi?s critical rhetoric toward the classical orthodoxy is reconstituted. After that, the replies of McCulloch and Colonel Torrens are detailed, specially their defense of free competition and the unlimited character of demand, as well as of the inroads of machinery in the productive process. The third part considers Sismondi?s rejoinder when he reinforces his theory of a general glut from a historical perspective of capitalism. In the end, and having in sight this particular controversy, a brief assessment of Ricardo?s legacy to political economy is made.Download Info

Social effects of oxytocin in humans: context and person matter
Trends in Cognitive Sciences, Volume 15, Issue 7, 1 July 2011, Pages 301-309
Jennifer A. Bartz, Jamil Zaki, Niall Bolger and Kevin N. Ochsner
AbstractBuilding on animal research, the past decade has witnessed a surge of interest in the effects of oxytocin on social cognition and prosocial behavior in humans. This work has generated considerable excitement about identifying the neurochemical underpinnings of sociality in humans, and discovering compounds to treat social functioning deficits. Inspection of the literature, however, reveals that the effects of oxytocin in the social domain are often weak and/or inconsistent. We propose that this literature can be informed by an interactionist approach in which the effects of oxytocin are constrained by features of situations and/or individuals. We show how this approach can improve understanding of extant research, suggest novel mechanisms through which oxytocin might operate, and refine predictions about oxytocin pharmacotherapy.

AbstractThe posterior pituitary hormone oxytocin has modulatory effects on neural functioning that are significant to the regulation of behavior. Basic research in animals has established the importance of oxytocin in affiliation, including mating, pair bonding and parenting behaviors. It is also an important regulator of feeding, grooming and responses to stress. The actions of oxytocin in the brain are regulated by gonadal steroid hormones, particularly estrogen. Oxytocin might also influence normal behavior in humans, and dysfunctions in the oxytocin system might be involved in the etiology and expression of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Nesfatin-1-Regulated Oxytocinergic Signaling in the Paraventricular Nucleus Causes Anorexia through a Leptin-Independent Melanocortin Pathway

SummaryThe hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) functions as a center to integrate various neuronal activities for regulating feeding behavior. Nesfatin-1, a recently discovered anorectic molecule, is localized in the PVN. However, the anorectic neural pathway of nesfatin-1 remains unknown. Here we show that central injection of nesfatin-1 activates the PVN and brain stem nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). In the PVN, nesfatin-1 targets both magnocellular and parvocellular oxytocin neurons and nesfatin-1 neurons themselves and stimulates oxytocin release. Immunoelectron micrographs reveal nesfatin-1 specifically in the secretory vesicles of PVN neurons, and immunoneutralization against endogenous nesfatin-1 suppresses oxytocin release in the PVN, suggesting paracrine/autocrine actions of nesfatin-1. Nesfatin-1-induced anorexia is abolished by an oxytocin receptor antagonist. Moreover, oxytocin terminals are closely associated with and oxytocin activates pro-opiomelanocortin neurons in the NTS. Oxytocin induces melanocortin-dependent anorexia in leptin-resistant Zucker-fatty rats. The present results reveal the nesfatin-1-operative oxytocinergic signaling in the PVN that triggers leptin-independent melanocortin-mediated anorexia.

Metabolic and stress-related roles of prolactin-releasing peptide

In the modern world, improvements in human health can be offset by unhealthy lifestyle factors, including the deleterious consequences of stress and obesity. For energy homeostasis, humoral factors and neural afferents from the gastrointestinal tract, in combination with long-term nutritional signals, communicate information to the brain to regulate energy intake and expenditure. Energy homeostasis and stress interact with each other, and stress affects both food intake and energy expenditure. Prolactin-releasing peptide, synthesized in discrete neuronal populations in the hypothalamus and brainstem, plays an important role in integrating these responses. This review describes how prolactin-releasing peptide neurons receive information concerning both internal metabolic states and environmental conditions, and play a key role in energy homeostasis and stress responses.

Inactivity Fee
Definition of 'Inactivity Fee'
1. A sum charged to investors who haven't engaged in any buying or selling activities in their brokerage accounts for an amount of time specified by the brokerage.
2. A sum charged to credit card holders who haven't made any purchases in an amount of time specified by the credit card company. |
Investopedia explains 'Inactivity Fee'
1. One way that brokerages make money is from commissions on trades. When a customer makes infrequent trades, the brokerage doesn't make money from that customer, and it may try to compensate for the lack of commissions by charging inactivity fees. Smaller, passive investors who make a small number of trades are the most disadvantaged by inactivity fees.
2. Similarly, credit card companies receive a small percentage of the sale each time a customer uses a credit card to make a purchase. When a customer stops using the credit card, the credit card company stops receiving this income, and it may charge an inactivity fee as a way to earn money from a customer who otherwise isn't generating any income for the company. |

The scandal at the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) just keeps getting worse.
Since the Washington Post published an op-ed I wrote asking if NSTA's puzzling decision to reject 50,000 free DVDs of Al Gore's global warming documentary An Inconvenient Truth might - just might - have had anything to do with more than six million dollars the organization has accepted from ExxonMobil, Shell Oil, ConocoPhillips and the American Petroleum Institute, the muck keeps piling up.
ExxonMobil, of course, remains the standout among a large group of fossil fuel companies that have done everything in their considerable power to delay, deflect, and derail any serious effort to cut global warming emissions. Funding scientific disinformation has long been one of their favorite tactics.
New evidence flatly contradicts statements NSTA has made in defense of its suspect partnerships, and efforts appear to be underway to wipe out online evidence showing that what the oil industry got in exchange was the group's imprimatur on classroom videos, teaching guides, and other "educational" materials that play down threats like global warming and play up the glories of continued oil dependence.
We also learned that NSTA is willing to sell direct access to America's schoolteachers to any Tom, Dick or Exxon that shows up with a checkbook.
And here's the icing on the cake: NSTA Executive Director Dr. Gerry Wheeler - a top figure in the world of science education, remember - confessed to at least one reporter this week that he hadn't actually bothered to see the acclaimed film before he turned it down.
Cuddling Up to Conoco
NSTA's initial rejection e-mail included comments from a staffer worried that accepting the offer would "place unnecessary risk upon the capital campaign, especially certain targeted supporters."
Now NSTA is arguing that distributing An Inconvenient Truth to teachers would violate their 2001 policy against endorsements. But that policy didn't stop them from shipping out 20,000 copies of a whopping 10-part video funded by ConocoPhillips in 2003.
In fact, Gerry Wheeler himself is listed as executive producer of the film series, alongside a ConocoPhillips corporate PR man named Ron Stanley. His interest in cinema apparently didn't extend to An Inconvenient Truth, however. At least not until it landed him in the paper.
Wheeler says this is OK because NSTA had editorial control of the project. If that's true, then maybe he can explain why the only scientist cited in the largely dismissive global warming section appearing in chapters six, nine and ten of the teaching guides is Dr. Robert Balling - a well known global warming skeptic who has acknowledged taking more than $400,000 from the fossil fuel industry (others say the figure is higher).
Shredding the Evidence
We also discovered that somebody somewhere is meticulously shredding the online evidence of NSTA's cozy corporate partnerships.
NSTA now says it is no longer partners with the American Petroleum Institute, asserting that the project ended five years ago. Yet it looks as if the curriculum was alive and well until reporters started asking about it these past few weeks.
As of November 26 - the day the Post article appeared - both NSTA and API were promoting the course materials they produced together on their web sites. Immediately after the article appeared, however, we noticed that references to the joint "Science of Energy" program were quickly disappearing from the web.
The 'Science of Energy' website itself is now gone altogether, and API has rewritten language touting their relationship with the science educators. But we captured some telling links before they started vanishing.
To see the disappearing documents, go here.
This space explores issues in public education policy, and it advocates for a commitment to and a re-examination of the democratic purposes of schools. If there is some urgency in the message, it is due to the current reform efforts that are based on a radical re-invention of education, now spearheaded by a psychometric blitzkrieg of "metastasizing testing" aimed at dismantling a public education system that took almost 200 years to build.

Nissan to Hike Vehicle Prices Starting January
By Nimisha Nair: Subscribe to Nimisha's RSS feed | December 13, 2012 6:02 PM IST
Nissan Motor India Private Limited has announced a hike in prices of its various models across the country. The hike will be effective January onwards.
In a statement issued on Thursday, the Japan-based automaker attributed the hike to the fluctuation in currency rates and rise in input costs.
"The price increase is being contemplated to offset the rising input costs and currency fluctuation prevailing in the Indian market. The revision of prices will soften the negative impact and help the company stay competitive," reported PTI.
Although the company has not announced the quantum of hike, it is reported that prices will be revised for all three models that Nissan Motors sells in India. The three models include the Micra hatchback, the Sunny sedan and the Evalia multipurpose vehicle.
- Follow @ibtimesindia
Earlier, a number of other automakers including domestic majors like Maruti Suzuki, Mahindras and Toyota and General Motors had announced a price hike from one to three percent starting next month.
Recently, premium car makers Audi India, Mercedes Benz and BMW had also announced price hikes citing currency fluctuation and rise in the cost of inputs as the reason.
As per reports, Audi India had announced a hike of 5 percent while BMW is planning of a 10 percent hike for some of its models.
Automakers in the country are currently facing a decline in their vehicle sales. A report from Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers ( SIAM), an organization that represents automobile manufacturers in India, revealed that the sales rate of cars in India fell to 8 percent in November despite the festival season.

Prisoners say that since Libya's uprising, some have been languishing in prisons without charge. They also say the courts have not moved to hear their cases.
Al-Hurr says no security guards were injured during the escape, leading him to suspect the guards may have received bribes to release the detainees.

windows crash
Windows crash
Postby Finlay on Sun Jan 24, 2010 11:57 pm
I all,
I have a problem on my Windows Vista that began after the purchase of an external Hard Disk Freecom.
A few days after the purchase I disconnected it while it was writing and, since that moment, every time I connect and disconnect it, the PC go to freeze mode for 5 minutes.
The same thing happen even if the hard disk is disconnected: every time I start windows it go to freeze a little after the password, and every time I connect and disconnect a usb device.
I have looked for the solution everywhere, updated windows, uninstalled and installed the hard disk from the device manager but I solved the problem only when I restored a recent backup.
Yesterday the Hard disk was writing a backup while Vista was installing the updates; at the end of the prodeure windows restarted automatically and the problem began again!!!
The Pc go to freeze when it starts, every time I connect or disconnect the hard disk, an usb earphone that has always worked switch on but there is no audio and I don't know how many others usb devices will have problems.
Has anyone an idea to solve this problem before I throw out of the window Vista or the the hard disk?
Thank you

Perhaps you scored a deal on a television on Black Friday or Cyber Monday and are now connecting your home theater components to it, such as an audio-video receiver, cable or satellite box, Blu-ray player or video game console.
Chances are you're using HDMI cables, which deliver the highest quality uncompressed audio and video signal between devices.
But as you visit different stores and online retailers, you realize some HDMI cables are $1 (or even less), while others are more than $200. Does it really make a difference to the human eye (and ear)?
The short answer? No, not really.
Most people can't detect the difference between the bargain bin HDMI cable and the one that comes in a fancy box at a boutique electronics retailer.
Oh sure, there are a few things you might be paying for with expensive cables -- thicker shielding (to reduce electronic interference from, say, a power cord), better connectors (e.g. gold tips), longer length, faster speeds and of course, brand recognition -- but it's difficult to justify the huge price discrepancy.
Consumer Reports agrees.
As you'll read more in depth here, Consumer Reports writes "retailers might try to talk you into spending $50 or more for an HDMI cable to use with your new HDTV. Don't bite."
"Our advice has been to buy decent-quality cables with sturdy connectors (such as those used our experts use with their home TVs); a six-foot HDMI cable should cost $10 or less," says this writer whose named isn't published alongside the piece.
For example, Yahoo! Shopping has this nearly 3.3-foot HDMI cable for $0.99 cents, yet this 15-foot "pro quality" HDMI cable sells for nearly $100.
But your eyes and ears know best -- so be sure to ask if you can try out the cord at your local electronics store before taking it home, and whether you buy it at retail or online ask about the store's return or refund policy.
If you're interested, you can find a few good HDMI cable buyer guides, include this one at CNET, Amazon and PC Pro UK.

Share your olfactory fingerprint and let her complement your style
Clinique Happy / Happy for Men (Rs 2400 /50 ml): If you both have that infectious and sometimes annoying energy to impact your co-workers or friends, this might just be the summer fragrance for you. Happy brings together floral notes from all over the world like Chinese golden magnolia, morning dew orchids and Hawaiian wedding flower; while Happy for Men is a complete citrus blast dominated by the strong presence of Panamanian Orange. And just in case your positive energy doesn't work, this uncomplicated scent can help lift the mood around you.
Mont Blanc Legend for Him (Rs 3050 / 50 ml) / Legend pour femme (Price on request): Crafted for those who make a subtle statement rather than scream for attention. If the curved black bottle of Legend for him seeks inspiration from the legendary Meisterstück pen, the elongated bottle for her is reminiscent of the brand's jewellery collection and is a tribute to classic screen goddesses like Grace Kelly and Ingrid Bergman. The mild men's scent with notes like lavender, apple, rose and sandalwood is full of contrasts while her scent is a perfect blend of white florals and citrus.
Paco Rabanne Black XS L'excès for Him (Rs 3800 / 100 m) / L'excès for Her(Rs 3090 / 80 ml): If she can handle your mean set of wheels better than you and has a funky tattoo or two, then you both deserve these special edition fragrances. Both feature tiny skulls clinging to the bottles like body piercings. Inspired by the lines by rock icon Iggy Pop – "It's better to burn than fade away" these two scents last endlessly – her version features black pepper with jasmine and rose while yours is a mix of fresh and woody notes.
Prada Amber Pour Homme (Rs 5400 / 100ml) / L'Eau Ambrée (Rs 5400 / 80 ml): It's not just the bottles that are elegant and exude old world charm – an industrial pump style bottle Pour homme and a fabric atomizer for her. These fragrances are crafted for the self assured couple who don't depend wholly on their fragrances to make a statement. Amber, the quintessential Prada ingredient is the common thread between both the scents and is complemented by notes like mandarin, cardamom, leather in the men's version and a strong floral presence in L'Eau Ambrée
Calvin Klein One Shock for Him and Her (Rs 2725 /100 ml): The original CK One sparked the trend of unisex fragrances in the 1990s and Calvin Klein's surprising decision to create two special edition 'One' scents for him and her in 2012 is fittingly called 'Shock'. The minimalist bottle gets a coat of black paint for him and white for her and 'shock value' is the theme of these bold scents that feature chocolate, tobacco, black basil and pepper for him and passion flower, dark cocoa and blackberry for her.

Wallpaper Sizing
Newbie here, I need some help with something that's driving me crazy. I've been looking at different ways of personalising my Nexus 7 and wallpaper is my first thing. I'm seeing some nice examples from other peoples tablets, with links to the wp, great. So I have it on my tablet, I long press my home screen and choose Wallpaper. It gives several options for opening it, and I generally choose QuickPic, however, the same thing then happens regardless. I get offered a crop option, which I understand is due to being able to go from portrait to landscape. What has me stumped is the fact this only allows me to use a small portion of the original wp as downloaded. Could it be that these people are only giving an image of their crop, maybe because they don't want anyone replicating the look they've set up, or am I being a bit dense here and missing something obvious?
Re: Wallpaper Sizing
Android screen resolutions are very different from machine to machine... early on when I started making wallpapers I did most of my images as 960(w)x800(h)... this is 960 pixels wide by 800 pixels heigh. My next device had 1040x960. Either of these images work great on my Nexus 7 tablet... and the cropping will crop to fit the screen, but for the most part these image work great.... you just need to stretch all the sides to pick up as much of the image as you want... pull the top up, left all the way, right all the way and also the bottom all the way down. I don't remember the specific size of the wallpaper that the Nexus 7 can take and really don't make any of mine specifically for the Nexus 7, but all the ones I have tried look fantastic on that device.
Current: Samsung Galaxy S4, Nexus 7 tablet, Chromecast
Retired Device (in order): Droid Razr Maxx, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC myTouch 4G, Blackberry's Bold, 8900 (Curve)Flames Wallpaper

What job should I go for with a bachelors degree in finance?I have just received my bachelors degree and have so far only had small side jobs. When I'm looking online now, I don't even know where to start. I know that I would most likely be starting off low, but I am looking for an industry that would be cool to work in with increasing opportunities in the years to come. Does anyone have any advice for that?

UPDATE 1-Asia Coffee-Indonesia premiums at 6-mth high; trade freezes
- Tweet
- Share this
* Indonesian premiums rise to $170, highest since May
* Vietnamese beans sold at $30 discounts (Adds technicals)
By Lewa Pardomuan
SINGAPORE, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Premiums for Indonesian robusta jumped this week to their highest since May as supply scarcity ahead of the new crop began to affect exporters, but Vietnamese beans changed hands at discounts to futures, dealers said on Friday.
The harvest ended in October in Indonesia, the world's second-largest robusta producer after Vietnam, and dealers awaited a smaller crop to start in December or January. The main harvest is still a few months away in April or May.
Sumatran grade 4, 80 defect beans were quoted at premiums of $150 to $170 to London's January contract, higher than $100 last week, with no reports of deals. Vietnamese beans were traded this week at $30 discounts to London futures.
"People who still have the 80-defect beans are holding back their stocks. I would say the premium is at least $150," said a dealer in Singapore.
"It's crazy in Indonesia. Most trading houses are short, and they are also oversold. I believe this problem will last until February," said the dealer, adding that exporters were struggling to fulfill contracts.
Favourable weather helped Indonesia produce more bigger beans, or the Extra Large Bean variety, in its recent crop, but most roasters and processed food producers are still chasing the commonly traded 80 defects beans.
Indonesia's coffee output could rise nearly 13 percent in the year to September 2013, fuelled by improving weather, while rising demand from local roasters is likely to boost consumption and push up imports, a Reuters survey shows.
"The price for ready stock beans is going up because supply is limited. But only those who are desperate will be buying beans at the current premiums," said another dealer in Singapore.
"Vietnam's differentials are pretty similar. We purchased Vietnamese beans at $30 under London yesterday. Demand from European roasters is still there. The price is competitive, compared to Indonesian beans."
Vietnam grade 2, 5 percent black and broken beans were offered at $30 to $70 below London's January contract last week. Vietnam harvested a record crop of about 1.6 million tonnes in the recently ended 2011/2012 season on higher yields and as new areas became productive.
Vietnam and Indonesia account for about 23 percent of global output. Robusta is either blended with arabica beans for a lower-cost brewed coffee or processed into instant coffee.
Indonesian robusta could stay at current levels next week because of limited supply, which may prompt some consumers to turn to Vietnam.
"People are not buying Indonesian beans at current premiums. They prefer to wait. If they can replace the beans with Vietnam robustas, then why not?" said the first dealer in Singapore.
London's January robusta coffee futures inched up $3, or 0.2 percent, to close Thursday at $1,938 a tonne, tracking gains in New York's arabica futures.
Arabica futures are the weakest performer on the Thomson Reuters-Jefferies CRB index in 2012, having lost around 35 percent from the end of 2011. (Editing by Clarence Fernandez)

A great pop album
Glee The Music: Volume 5 - Glee Cast
Author Name: popmusicfan
Glee The Music: Volume 5 - Glee Cast
Date: 09/12/11
Advantages: A great pop album
Disadvantages: None
This is a great pop album. The cast of Glee sing better versions of the songs than the original artists did! The vocals are spot on throughout the album, not one note is out of place on the album. The vocals are shared out throughout the album so each cast member gets their share. There are a mixture of great pop songs on this album and each song is very well executed and produced.
There are also two original songs on this album. These two songs took a while to grow on me as I have never heard of them before (as they aren't cover versions). I like these two songs. One is a lovely slow tempo ballad sung by Lea Michele and the other is a rock-pop number sung by New Directions. The other songs on the album are songs featured in the series, like "Firework" and "Sing". Their version of Firework is better than the original version by Katy Perry. Lea Michele has THE most amazing voice and her voice shines on this song, it's just amazing and I think Katy should be worried!!!
The album is a great singalong pop album and is great to play at parties. It's fun to listen to and is great for all ages as there's nothing offensive on the album. It's just meant to be fun, which it is.
Overall this is my favourite album by the cast of Glee. It contains the best mixture of songs and is the most fun to listen to in my opinion.
Summary: A great album from the Glee cast

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.
Decades before the dawn of 3-D printing and resulting wonders like self-portrait gummy bears, Mold-a-Rama vending machines were pressing hot wax into tiny figurines delivered in seconds. These vintage contraptions still exist at zoos and other attractions, where miniature keepsakes cost only a couple of dollars and smell like melted crayons.
At the Henry Ford Museum in Detroit, machines magically make models of Rosa Park's bus and wee wax Weinermobiles before your eyes:
Zoos are hotspots for Mold-a-Rama machines. At Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo, several generations of visitors have taken home 3-inch-tall wax gorillas. The city's Brookfield Zoo has 13 machines, currently spitting out dinosaurs.
According to the fan site moldamania.com, other zoos proffer macaws, dolphins, manatees, panthers and killer whales. The bust of Frankenstein and tiny space capsules can be found if you're lucky. Hundreds of molds existed back in the technology's heyday (the original was invented in the 1960s and spawned several imitators). Back then, Disneyland delighted park-goers with figurines of favorite characters, ready in 30 seconds.
Cheap? Check. Packable? Check. Better than a gummy bear in your likeness? You decide. Here's a list of Mold-a-Rama locations.
Do you have Mold-a-Rama memories from childhood?

Yes, your logic is sound. A .357 revolver is a great choice. If it is going to just be in your home in a safe or drawer, I would not worry about the hammer-less version. I would also make sure to get a decently long barrel. If you are not going to conceal it, the longer barrel will do two things; make it more accurate, and make it heavier meaning it will have less kick.
I used to have a .357 Ruger SP101. It was great except that it was a snub-nose. I couldn't' shoot very accurately with it at all and I am a qualified navy sharpshooter on the pistol.

President Barack Obama offered an optimistic message on the campaign trail in Florida. He said America, diverse and talented, is still on top, and promised to reduce the deficit without harming the middle class.
Larry Downing/Reuters
Seminole, Fla.
President Barack Obama on Saturday pronounced Republicans "dead wrong" in calling America a country in decline, offering a rebuttal to the "naysayers" who drew attention to the nation's staggering debt and anemic job growth.
Obama and Republican rival Mitt Romney clawed for advantage in a post-convention push through some of the most closely contested states that marked the opening of the homestretch of the tight race.
Obama told a spirited rally that America's "basic bargain" is at stake in the election, the promise that "if you work hard it will pay off." He pledged to make education more affordable, reduce dependence on foreign oil and slash deficits "without sticking it to the middle class" if he gets another term.
Romney, who spent much of the week preparing for debates and laying low during the Democratic convention, was back in motion with a planned Virginia Beach rally and visit to a NASCAR rally in Richmond, Va.,
Virginia and Florida are two of a handful of states that could determine the outcome of the election.

This is not a questions, rather a bug report. Couldn't find anything of that kind.
That word is at the end of first paragraph, last page.

Is Christian belief justified, rational or warranted? The search for a response is the heart of the de jure challenge. The very search itself can be perilous as it can fall into reduction, apologetics or even 'lite' analytic, doxastic practices. The reductive temptation is to end up answering the de facto question of whether belief in God is true. The fall into apologetics, again, another attempt to avoid the de jure challenge, is to spend more time defending one's own position to the detriment of developing an engaging epistemological and theological imagination. Lastly, the fall into 'lite' analytic and doxastic practice is, for example, to utilise analogies and hypothetical creations with a 'thin' perceptual practice. Observant of these temptations, Deane-Peter Baker invites the reader on a journey into the world of Reformed epistemology. He does this in two major parts.
