Mukherjee, T. K. and Yap, T. N. (1979) Frequencies of the Transferrin Alleles and Genotypes in Crossbred Cattle and their Effect on Growth Traits. Pertanika, 2 (1). pp. 51-53.
Records on birth weight, body 'weight and body measurement traits were obtained from a total of 149 crossbred animals (Zebu X Temperate) from the lnstitut Haiwan Kluang, From the blood samples collected from these animals, 14.5 of them were analysed for the presence of serum transferrin genotypes. Frequency of the TID gene was found to be highest in both the half bred and quarter-bred Zebus, Frequency of lyA and lyE was found to be lower and higher respectively in half-bred Zebus and the quarter-bred Zebus. In general, there were no significant variations (P < a.OS) between the effects of different transferrin genotypes observed (TfAA, Tf:1D, 7y/n, l/DD alld 1/D1\) on any of the body weight or body conformation trait,

RELEASED: Sept. 25, 2008
EAU CLAIRE — Mayo Clinic's division of laboratory genetics gift to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Foundation will fund the fifth year of the Biological Sciences Seminar Series at UW-Eau Claire, which will kick off at 4 p.m. Sept. 25 in Room 319 of Phillips Science Hall.
Dr. Daniel Herman, assistant professor of biology, will discuss "The Role of the Mbp 1 Protein in Regulating Morphogenesis in the Human Pathogen Candida albicans."
"The seminar series is a great opportunity for community residents, students and faculty to learn what is going on at the cutting edge of biology research," said Dr. Dan Janik, associate professor of biology and coordinator of the seminar series. "Research is an important part of Mayo Clinic's mission so the speaker series makes for a great partnership with UW-Eau Claire."
Mayo Clinic has hired many UW-Eau Claire graduates and UW-Eau Claire alumnus Dr. Matthew Ferber, a consultant in laboratory medicine and pathology in the division of laboratory genetics, helped get the Mayo Clinic to fund the seminar series, Janik said.
"It was not very hard to get Dr. Stephen Thibodeau, the leader of the molecular genetics laboratory at Mayo Clinic, or Dr. Brian Dawson, Mayo Clinic laboratory genetics division chair, interested in funding this series," said Ferber, who graduated from UW-Eau Claire in 1995. "Their support is a reflection of how much Mayo has gained from hiring students from Eau Claire."
In the laboratory of medicine and pathology where he works, 10-15 percent of the employees are UW-Eau Claire graduates, Ferber said.
"I think Dr. Thibodeau and Dr. Dawson see it as an opportunity to give back to the school that's been so good for Mayo Clinic," Ferber said. "UW-Eau Claire really prepares students well for the laboratory and we'll continue needing those students into the future. I hope supporting this seminar series will continue to galvanize the relationship between Mayo Clinic and UW-Eau Claire."
The fall 2008 speakers series also includes:
All the seminars will be held at 4 p.m. in Room 319 of Phillips Science Hall. The speaker series is free and open to students, faculty and members of the community.

Twelve years ago, U.S. led air strikes drove Iraq's armies out of Kuwait but left Iraqi President Saddam Hussein in power. Now we face another showdown with Hussein. The following sites, (some written expressly for students) explore the why's and how's of this conflict.
BBC News: Conflict with Iraq5 stars
In addition to the latest news, this special BBC report has lots of in-depth background features. Best bets are the timeline, which traces Saddam Hussein's rise to power, the interactive Iraqi map, and the At a Glance Q&A. Voices and In Pictures will take you inside Iraq with stories and photos of the people who have "lived through twelve years of sanctions." For a military view, peruse the Military Factfiles (guide to the US and British arsenals) and Quick Guides (interactive features on strategies and threats.)
CBBC Newsround4 stars
"Will there be a war with Iraq?" "Why might the war happen?" These are just two of the questions addressed at CBBC Newsround, published by the kids division of British Broadcasting Company. Appropriate for grade school kids, the answers and related articles are short and reassuring. Be sure to read the story of ten-year old Leyla, who's family fled Iraq to avoid persecution by Hussein.
CNN.com: Showdown Iraq4 stars
"More than 10 years after the Persian Gulf War, the world is locked in another showdown with Iraqi President Saddam Hussein." This CNN.com special archive is organized into three sections: Top Stories (breaking news), Iraq (see History of Iraq and Key Questions) and Military (including maps and interactive features.) You'll also find links to a special section on the U.N. weapon inspections, TIME's in-depth Iraqi coverage (some of which is only available to magazine subscribers or for a per-article fee), and Unfinished Business (an analysis of Desert Storm.)
PBS NewsHour Extra: Intervention in Iraq4 stars
Created specifically for students and teachers, NewsHour Extra includes news, student editorials, lesson plans, and links to the main "Intervention in Iraq" feature. Best click is Debating the News which presents two sides to the Iraqi dilemma. "Does the U.S. have the right to go into a country and remove its government? Should the U.S. go to war with Iraq now or wait until Hussein does something against the U.S. directly?" Each argument includes quotes from experts and dignitaries that have appeared on Jim Lehrer's NewsHour television show.
Scholastic News: Reporting from Iraq5 stars
For elementary and middle-school grades, Scholastic News covers the Iraqi conflict with feature stories, but no breaking news. Important sections include an introduction to Hussein (see Iraq vs. the U.S.), and the Iraq articles (created with the help of the encyclopedia folks at Grolier Online). For classroom use, there is a ten-question self-scoring quiz, and a printable scavenger hunt based on the Iraq entry at the online CIA fact book.

U.S. plan to sell Plum Island questioned in Conn.
|FILE - This undated file photo provided by the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Plum Island, off the coast of New York's Long Island shows is shown in an aerial photo. The federal government plans to sell the 840-acre island off the eastern tip of Long Island and move research operations to a $1.14 billion laboratory in Kansas but environmentalists in both Connecticut and New York are questioning the wisdom of the sale. (AP Photo/USDA-ARS, File)
OLD SAYBROOK, Conn. (AP) — Lawmakers and environmentalists are questioning a proposal by the federal government to sell Plum Island in Long Island Sound.
The island off the eastern tip of Long Island is home to the country's only laboratory that studies infectious animal diseases. The Department of Homeland Security is opening a $1.14 billion laboratory in Kansas to replace it.

Is it possible (and wise) for one node to act as both an annex node and master node in a cluster?
On a side note, I delved way too deep too fast. I have hardly any Linux experience under my belt (let alone even networking), and yet I need to plan and set up a 4-node cluster for my senior project. What was I thinking?

The FAA is currently reevaluating the policies governing use of electronics during flights. It is expected that cell phones use will still not be allowed during flights but it is doubtful that a cell phone would work while a plane is in flight. While cell phones are portable, they were never intended to be used while in an aircraft moving at 300+ mph. Cell phones are short distance devices that connect from one cell tower coverage area to another as the device moves.
If you have ever forgotten to turn your cell phone off during flight, you might have discovered that the cell phone is not working when you arrive at your destination. The cell phone may be deactivated because the cell phone provider assumed that your cell phone account info was copied and was being used in another part of the country.
Have you heard about all the discounts and promo codes that are available online?
Recently, I logged into my vitamin supplier's website and purchased some vitamins online. While checking out, I decided to surf the Internet for a promo code to discount my purchase. To my surprise, I found a promo code on a website that lists all kinds of discount promo codes. I didn't get the vitamins for free but I received a 10% discount just for entering the promo code in the proper box during checkout. It was especially surprising that I didn't have to enter my email only to be deluged with SPAM. The promo code was displayed and offered for free!
There are all kinds of ads on line that promise discounts when buying online. If you are in the market for anything, check the Internet for any discount promo codes. Don't forget to be wary of any deals that are too good to be true. The Internet is full of scams, use your street smarts when searching for any online deals.
Presidential candidate's tax records have become a big issue during this election. The issue has become such a big deal that "someone" decided to take matters into their own hands and illegally obtain tax records. It has not been substantiated but there are reports that the secret service is investigating the possibility that Mitt Romney's tax records have been obtained illegally and are being held hostage.
Thieves allegedly gained access to computer systems and records in the Pricewaterhouse Coopers offices in Franklin, Tennessee. A ransom note posted on a hacker site provided enough details that strongly suggest an event did occur.
There is no such thing as privacy any more. If information is stored "somewhere" in the cloud, someone will find it. What information is on the Internet about YOU?

No, the colors will not shock your @ss when you touch them, and your hair will not stand on end, but the colors in Urban Decay's new Electric Pressed Pigment Palette are very bright — like neon sign bright.
Buuut, not everybody likes brights, right? This one is for the risk takers — the guys and dolls who aren't afraid to wear a bright teal eye to the bank on a Wednesday, which is not to say that those are the only makeup lovers who might like it. Just that they'd probably be more attracted to it immediately. Even if you don't think of yourself as a bright teal, electric blue or chartreuse fan, however, does not mean you would not be able to rock this.
I just got back from a quick 10-minute walk around the neighborhood, and it was so beautiful outside. It rained here last night, and all of the flowers and grasses and trees are covered in raindrops from the storm. The colors are intensified because of the rain — the pinks, the greens, the blues, the yellow daffodils — but they're also surrounded by neutrals — the brown dirt, the gray tree bark and the boring-@ss beige buildings in my neighborhood. The neutrals make the bright colors a little less shocking, but a little more at home in their environment at the same time.
Similarly, I think the brights in this palette also look that much more beautiful when they're used in tandem with neutrals.
Sorry…I rambled on there!
My point is this: you can use your existing wardrobe of neutrals, take this palette, and incorporate one or two of its colors as accents in your looks, making the palette into something perfectly wearable.
You know, I had a feeling that Urban Decay was about to release something bright soon… I mean, shoot — after all of the Nakedness dominating the line over the past few years, it was only a matter of time.
Speaking of time…
The first time I saw Electric, I said, "Ooh! I think I have a Pop Beauty palette just like this sitting in a drawer." It was a palette from last fall, and it's only sitting in the drawer because I get easily distracted. Not because I don't like it. I do (incidentally, it's still available and much less expensive than Electric).
Then when I opened Electric for the first time, I thought, "I have to get Fringe on my lids."
Fringe, the metallic teal all the way to the right in the first row, is all that and a bag of deep-fried chips. Deep and rich and shimmery and pigmented, and it buffs out perfectly.

Summer Learning Tips from California State PTA
The summer months are a particularly great time for parents and families to reinforce bonds with their children by participating together in fun, learning activities.
Using Numbers for Fun
Map Reading
Give children a map and a marker to follow the route you are traveling. Watch for street or road signs. Using the mileage scale on the map, check approximately how far you have gone, and estimate how much farther you must go to the end of the trip.
Keep a list of car license plates by state and see who can spot the most states.
Add the numbers on each license plate and see who can find the one adding up to the largest number.
In wet sand, compare the depth of big and small footprints due to weight differences.
Estimate how much time it will take to reach your destination by giving your children the mileage and the speed you are traveling.
Plan a special outing to the museum, the beach, or the park, and have your child show the way on the map. Estimate the distance, and then check to see how close you came.
Encourage Physical Fitness
Set a positive example.
Limit your own daily TV viewing, aiming to exercise every day, making healthy food choices and encouraging your child to do the same.
Set reasonable rules for computer and TV use.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children under the age of two watch no television and children over the age of two limit television viewing to no more than two hours per day.
One hour of exercise a day.
Help your child choose an activity - any activity - such as walking, basketball, or bike riding, and encourage one hour of exercise per day.
Summer sports or camp
Consider registering your child for an organized summer sports league or active day camp.
Purchase a pedometer for your young teen to count steps throughout the day, aiming for 11,000 daily steps (ages 6 to 17). *
*Reprinted with permission from Summer Break - Tips For A Healthy Summer: A Guide for Parents of Young Teens (National PTA website, www.pta.org).
Supporting Reading at Home
Encourage Literacy
Encourage children to help make shopping lists, draw and write thank-you notes, write grocery lists, and create menus for meals.
Visit libraries and bookstores
Check out materials such as toys, tapes, CDs, and books from libraries. Participate in activities held by libraries and bookstores, such as story time, writing contests, and summer reading programs.
Set aside time every day for reading
Keep reading and writing materials such as books, magazines, newspapers, paper, markers, crayons, scissors, glue, and stickers accessible to children.
Read with your child
Read books and rhymes and play language games such as tongue twisters and puzzles with your children. Practice the alphabet by pointing out letters wherever you see them and by reading alphabet books. Point out the letter-sound relationships your child is learning on labels, boxes, magazines, and signs.
Keep a notebook
Write down stories your children tell you so that the child may see the connection between oral language and text.
Be a reader
Children observe and learn from people around them. Let your child know you are proud of his/her reading.
Include the Arts
Extensive research indicates the arts help children learn. Visit the PTA SMARTS Bring Back the Arts web page for resources as well as on-line activities.
Visit a Museum
Making a Family Museum Visit Fun for Toddlers, Teens and In-Betweens
My Wonderful World Museum On-Line
Sun Safety
Limit Exposure
Try to limit exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
Use Sun Screen
Use a waterproof or water-resistant sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher applied liberally. Don't forget to protect lips, ears, and toes.

2011 Predictions
Which projects, people, products, and events will capture our attention in 2011?
Rikki asks the Magic 8 Ball (actually, her Facebook friends) what 2011 will bring. Also, updates on Gnome and CeBIT.
New Year's might be my favorite holiday – no one expects any gifts, we all get a fresh start, and a toast and midnight kiss is encouraged. Best of all, New Year's is cross-cultural, celebrated by Linux users and their Windows-running friends alike. In the spirit of fresh starts and New Year's resolutions, I asked my Facebook friends to chime in with their 2011 predictions for the tech world. Luckily, my friends have strong opinions and are always eager to share them!

Its here! The interactive, comprehensive and sometimes quite useful calendar that you can take with you everywhere!
All the key information for EVERY major women's cycling road race! Dates, times, start location maps, race classifications, links to more detailed previews elsewhere on Velofocus.
The current, next races are always displayed at the top of the page. If for any reason you want to look back at past events then the "Previous Events" button is the one you need.
Overwhealmed by the number of races? Or looking for something in particular? Of course you can use the general search function thats on every page of Velofocus in the top right hand corner. Or, alteratively click the "Tags" box and filter the races by things like Country, discipline, UCI event rank, etc.
Not only this, there are FIVE ways to view the calendar! My personal favourite, and default option named Posterboard (as pictured above) or in more traditional formats by day, week, month and Agenda (which, you can see a "light" version on most pages). To change the view click the button in the top left above the calendar when you visit the page.
Oh, and one final thing: You can add the race calendar to your own calendar. Simply click "Subscribe" at the bottom of the calendar and download the iCal to add to your Outlook calendar or whatever your prefered software might be. If you're a Google man/woman then its even easier! 2 clicks "Subscribe in Google Calendar" button, followed by another to confirm your request to add it to your Google Calendar.
Hope you find the calendar useful. If you've got any suggestions, for the calendar dont hesitate to either leave a comment or contact me via the "About" page.

Lessons have been learned. After Rising Sun duly barfed its half-baked, historically inaccurate innards over us, it looked as though Medal of Honor was finished. The series has been running longer than the actual Second World War did, anyway. But after the harsh criticism, severe kickings, and, we suspect, many losses behind the scenes, Medal of Honor is back, regrouped, and ready for another assault. It ain't no Brothers in Arms, that's for sure, but on the great suck-o-meter, this one isn't hitting the bell with every swing of the hammer either.
As William Holt, a member of the US special forces assigned a place within various European units through the course of the war, you fight your way across Europe in a tale of derring-do told through the medium of atrocious mockney accents that would put Dick Van Dyke to shame. Missions are now fairly far removed from the one-man infiltration episodes of other Honor games, with at least another three soldiers under your command at any time. They're now all fairly intelligent too, and will happily throw themselves at the action when required, but this is actually due to AI rather than some advanced command system. In fact, telling 'your boys' what to shoot at mostly involves vaguely indicating the direction with a click of the left thumbstick. There are no specific commands or orders to give, nor any formations to take. Just point, click, and hopefully they'll shuffle off in that direction as opposed to the one they were embarking on. It's fine for flanking manoeuvres, but sadly little else.
Mission structure, rather than the mission content has also changed somewhat, although the distinct lack of anything approaching an epic John Williams-style score gives this a virtually atmosphere-free playing environment. There'll still be plenty of secret Nazi bunkers to infiltrate, V2 rockets to destroy, or submarines to sabotage, but the missions are now broader, less linear beasts. Sub-missions will appear on the radar if you stumble into an interesting area, and with a good half-dozen sub-quests on each level to complete, it's easy to become distracted from the main objective. It's fine though, because each one completed earns you an extra life (just like in real war, kids!), and these are easily the most valuable pick-ups worth scavenging for, as missions don't have save points, most tend to stretch on well after all the medipacks are used up, and most feature an end-of-level Nazi of some description. These guys are abnormally tough, all trussed up in their trenchcoats and sporting mental facial tics, so go for the sub-quests. They're often the only way to finish a level with all your limbs still attached.
Whatever remnants of the old Rising Sun engine that might remain are well hidden in European Assault. Enemies can be blisteringly accurate shots, often springing out with an SMG on full automatic, leaving little time to dive for cover or retaliate. They're not exactly sitting ducks either, although they do tend to shake and quiver when killed. The ragdoll effect is in overdrive here, and it looks a bit daft. They are, however, still a rather brainless bunch, so learn their patterns and take 'em down.
Weapons feel so much more solid and workable than last time though, with shotguns lifting people off their feet and sending bodies spattering into walls with a satisfying squelch. Bazookas, pistols, and machine guns are also greatly improved, offering powerful, meaty blasts sure to send the most dastardly Nazi to a deserved grave. Only grenades seem a little weak and a little like tossing lettuces. But hey, this is Medal of Honor, you can't have everything!

Thousands of Miss. residents participate in earthquake exercise
Updated On: Oct 17 2013 02:06:51 PM CDT
Mississippi could one day see a damaging earthquake, according to scientists.
"Earthquakes are one of the many hazards that Mississippians face," said Mississippi Emergency Management Agency Director Robert Latham.
Scientists estimate that there is a 25 to 40 percent chance of a damaging earthquake in the central U.S. within the next 50 years. Mississippi sits on the New Madrid Fault system, which is responsible for the 1811 and 1812 earthquakes.
On Thursday, more than 218,000 Mississippi residents took part in the Great Central U.S. ShakeOut, a nationwide earthquake exercise. More than 18.2 million people had signed up to participate across the nation.
"Disaster preparedness is important so you and your family can be better equipped when a disaster strikes," said Gov. Phil Bryant. "Exercises like this can save lives and teach us valuable lessons in the event an earthquake hits Mississippi."
Participants in the drill learned that if an earthquake strikes, they should drop to the ground, take cover under a desk or table with their arms covering their head and neck. They should then hold on until the shaking stops, authorities said.

As a follow-up to my post about a recent "Supreme" Court decision allowing police to enter a home without a search warrant if it sounds like the owner is trying to destroy evidence, I want to call to your attention that for years now some other criminals (otherwise known as "federal agents") have been conducting "sneak and peek" raids with "A special type of government search warrant that allows authorities to search homes without informing the owner…" They're called "delayed-notice search warrants." Delayed-notice. My, how conveeeeeeeeenient. According to the article:
"The warrants have always been around, but their use has spiked since the revamped Patriot Act in 2005. The number of delayed-notice search warrants spiked nationally from nearly 700 in fiscal year 2007 to close to 2,000 in 2009…These search warrants don't involve knocking on doors or any type of warning at all. Delayed-notice search warrants, or "sneak-and-peek" warrants, allow federal agents to enter your home without telling you they've been there until months later."
I just figured out why the Federal gunvernment created the Patriot Act after 9/11. It was to take away as many of our freedoms as possible until eventually we won't have any freedoms at all, so that the terrorists won't have an excuse to attack us because "they hate us for our freedoms."
[Thanks to Travis Holte]
UPDATE: John Spiers writes:
A police officer I helped to write his memoirs told me on a drug raid (before the no-knock days) the cops a the front door would bang "Police — We Have a Warrant!" and a cop at the back door would scream "Come in…"
The fellow was a deep undercover narc, so his work wasn't "I smelled marijuana and made a bust after a probable cause search," but going after full time dealers and above. Months on a case. He had an interesting take: "It is impossible to get drug conviction without breaking the law. We had to break the law to get the arrest, and then we had to lie in court to hide that we broke the law."
If they could not get a bust after a warrant search or two (judges throw out warrants like confetti) they would do a dynamic no knock entry, because obviously the dope dealer was flushing it away… and a first veteran narc in would surreptitiously toss a bag of coke in a closet and a last cop in, a rookie, would find it, to "attaboys" all around. The rookie would be delirious about how cool police work is, and how good he is at it. Only on the third try did the kid break the case. When the defense lawyer had the rookie cop wired up on a lie detector to ask if the kid planted the dope, he would honestly say no. Even the defense lawyer thinks his client is lying. But it may also be the case the fellow was never dealing drugs. Who knows? But certainly the dope in that instance was planted.5:14 am on May 18, 2011 Email David Kramer

Dáil Éireann - Volume 441 - 12 April, 1994
Adjournment Debate. - Student Representation on UCC Governing Body.
Mr. Bradford Mr. Bradford
Mr. Bradford: I am glad to have the opportunity to raise this important issue but I am disappointed that neither the Minister nor Minister of State is present. However, I realise this is due to constraints of work. The problem was caused by the attitude of the Minister. Hopefully she is prepared to reconsider her stance.
For almost 25 years UCC students have been represented on the governing body of the college by the president of the students union. Unfortunately this has not been the case since July 1993. The governing body met several times last year to discuss matters of importance to students who were not represented at those meetings.
It has been the tradition for the Minister for Education to appoint the president of the students union to the governing body under the National Universities Act, 1908. The current president [273] of the UCC students union. Mr. Fergal Shanahan, has been in constant correspondence with the Minister since his appointment in 1993 seeking clarification as to why he has not been appointed. Unfortunately he did not get a satisfactory response to his queries.
When I put down a written question to the Minister on 1 February she informed me that it had been the practice for the president of the students union to be appointed to the governing body as a Government nominee but consideration had to be given to the question of gender balance in relation to such appointees. The Minister's action has left students without representation on the governing body for the first time in 25 years.
Students at UCC who spend millions of pounds on college fees are being denied a say in how these moneys will be spent by a Minister who said last autumn in the run up to the National Educational Convention that she wished students to have a strong voice in the future of Irish education. In the next month or so the governing body will meet to discuss the fees structure for 1994-95 and the students will not be represented. The democratic wish of UCC students, male and female, is that they be represented on the governing body by the president of the students union, Mr. Shanahan, but unfortunately the Minister is going against the democratic wishes of the students. She is doing so on the basis of gender balance but it appears to me to be going overboard to be politically correct. The Minister should listen to the pleas of the students union. UCC students have democratically elected a president and he is entitled to sit on the governing body. The Minister should get off her high horse and respond to the demand of students to have their president, as was the case heretofore, on the governing body of UCC.
I do not expect a detailed response from the Minister of State but I hope she will transmit the strong pleas by UCC students that their democratically elected [274] president should be on the board of the UCC governing body.
Ms E. Fitzgerald Ms E. Fitzgerald
Ms E. Fitzgerald: On behalf of the Minister for Education who cannot be here. I would like to reply to the points the Deputy made.
The National University of Ireland and its three constituent colleges at Dublin, Cork and Galway operate under the Irish Universities Act, 1908, and the associated charters. These charters, inter alia, prescribe the composition of the governing bodies of the colleges and the Minister has no discretionary power in relation to the matter.
The charter under which University College Cork operates provides for a governing body of 28 members and while there are provisions in the charter whereby the professors of the college elect six members and the graduates of the college elect four members, there is no provision for student representation.
There is a provision, however, whereby the Government appoints three members and in order to make up for the lack of provision for student representation it has been the practice for the Government since the early seventies to appoint the president of the students union in the college as a Government nominee.
As the Deputy is probably aware, the Government is anxious that there should be an appropriate gender balance on the boards or governing authorities of all public bodies. This creates certain difficulties in bodies where some of the members are elected and others appointed ex-officio. The charter provides for a governing body of 28 members and the question of an appropriate gender balance inevitably arises. The governing body consists of 24 males and three females and there is one vacancy. The current president of the students union is also male and his appointment would not contribute to improving the gender balance.
275 276
The Minister is concerned, however, [275] regarding the question of student representation and the Deputy will be aware that in the recent regional technical colleges and Dublin Institute of Technology legislation there are specific provisions for student representation. In the newer universities too. Dublin City University and the University of Limerick, there are provisions for student representation and [276] in the National College of Art and Design. In this context, therefore, a proposal will be put to Government next week to appoint a student representative to the governing body of University College, Cork.
The Dáil adjourned at 9.05 p.m. until 10.30 a.m. on Wednesday, 13 April 1994.

General Debate

Russia has won the support of six former Soviet nations over its war in Georgia during a meeting of member countries of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO) in Moscow.
Dmitry Medvedev, the Russian president, said that the leaders of CSTO nations signed a declaration on Friday condemning an attack by Georgia which was aimed at regaining control of its breakaway province of South Ossetia.
Members of the group said they were "deeply concerned about an attempt by Georgia to solve the conflict in South Ossetia by force, which has led to numerous casualties among the civilian population and peacekeepers and entailed grave humanitarian consequences," the declaration said.
The declaration said there is a need to "ensure firm security for South Ossetia and Abkhazia," the two breakaway Georgian provinces whose independence Moscow has recognised.
But the six members of the CSTO, other than Russia, - Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan – did not say they would formally recognise the two provinces.'Show of support'
The joint statement condemning Georgia's attack was a boost for the Kremlin, which has struggled to win international support for its invasion of Georgia after Tbilisi tried to assert control over South Ossetia on August 7.
Russia's relations with the West have deteriorated sharply as a result of the invasion and only a few countries such as Cuba and Venezuela, have backed Russia's position.
The CSTO declaration came after Dick Cheney, the US vice-president, visited Azerbaijan, Georgia and Ukraine in a show of support to their pro-Western governments.
Russia responded to Georgia's attack on South Ossetia by sending troops into the country, where they quickly defeated the Georgian military.
'Disproportionate attack'
The US and European Union nations have condemned the Russian attack as "disproportionate" and strongly urged Moscow to withdraw its troops from the Georgian territory.
Russia has said that US military assistance to Georgia over the past several years had encouraged Mikhail Saakashvili, Georgia's president, to launch the attack on South Ossetia.
In an apparent reference to a $1bn aid package announced by Washington, Medvedev on Friday warned against providing more assistance to Georgia.
"We don't want Georgia, which acted as the aggressor, to continue to arm itself in an uncontrolled way and with unknown aims and completely unclear consequences," he said.
A US Navy ship anchored outside the key Georgian port of Poti on Friday, delivering tonnes of humanitarian aid to a city still partly occupied by hundreds of Russian troops.

After reading Adam Gopnik's masterful examination of the American prison system in a recent issue of the New Yorker, in which he examines our fetishistic compulsion to warehouse millions of errant citizens in prisons, it's easy to conclude that our conception of "cruel and unusual punishment" needs reconsideration. Gopnik burrows through the rotten veneer of propriety that allows us to convince ourselves that for-profit "correctional facilities" are a good idea. He argues persuasively that incarcerating drug offenders is a horrible idea. And he explains why our obsession with procedural correctness is often antithetical to our goal of universal justice.
He also makes us understand what it must be like to be confined to a cage. Not nice.

Canada to Participate in International Donors' Conference Towards a New Future for Haiti
(No. 124 - March 30, 2010 – 5:45 p.m. ET) The Honourable Lawrence Cannon, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Honourable Beverley J. Oda, Minister of International Cooperation, today announced that Canada will participate in the International Donors' Conference Towards a New Future for Haiti, to be held at the United Nations headquarters in New York on March 31, 2010.
"As a leading donor in Haiti and member of the international community, we reiterate our commitment to Haiti's long-term reconstruction and reaffirm our solidarity with the Haitian people," said Minister Cannon. "This conference is an opportunity to continue the work we started during the Ministerial Preparatory Conference we hosted in Montreal on January 25. We look forward to working with other donors in a coordinated manner to help the Government of Haiti achieve its recovery and development goals."
At the conference, Minister Oda will outline Canada's further contribution to relief, early recovery and reconstruction in Haiti.
"Canada's leadership role in Haiti reflects the long-standing ties between our two countries, embodied by the significant Haitian community in Canada and the large number of Canadians who contributed so generously to the relief effort," said Minister Oda. "Canada is committed to supporting Haiti for the long term. Recovery and reconstruction efforts will take years, and Canada will stand by the Government of Haiti and the Haitian population to build a better Haiti.''
Canada will co-chair the International Donors' Conference along with other leading donors to Haiti—Brazil, the European Union, France and Spain. The conference will be co-hosted by the United States and United Nations, in cooperation with the Government of Haiti. All 192 UN member states have been invited to attend.
Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General of Canada, will also attend the conference as an observer.

Backgrounder - Canada's Response to the Earthquake in Haiti
On January 12, 2010, a catastrophic 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck Haiti, close to Port-au-Prince. The earthquake caused widespread devastation and loss of life. Within hours of the quake, the Government of Canada mounted a rapid and comprehensive humanitarian effort involving departments and agencies from across the federal government.
Humanitarian and consular efforts
Canada played a leadership role in contributing to an effective and coordinated international response to the crisis by hosting the Ministerial Preparatory Conference in Montreal on January 25 to establish a clear and common international vision for the early recovery and longer-term reconstruction of Haiti. The conference established the beginnings of a road map toward Haiti's long-term reconstruction and a clear and sustained commitment to Haiti and its people. This commitment is based on underlying principles of ownership, coordination, sustainability, effectiveness, inclusiveness and accountability; Canada is acting decisively and expeditiously to meet the objectives.
The Government of Canada made important cash contributions to facilitate rapid action by trusted and experienced humanitarian partners, disbursing some $85 million for emergency relief and recovery efforts. These contributions have helped provide emergency shelter, medical services, food, relief items, water and sanitation services, as well as protection to Haitians affected by the earthquake.
The Canadian government created the Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund (HERF) and announced that it would match eligible charitable donations made by individual Canadians to support relief in Haiti. The Canadian International Development Agency is in the process of confirming matching contributions and will finalize the amount shortly. HERF funds will be disbursed in the near future. The Government of Haiti has urged all donors to take a measured and coordinated approach to distributing additional funds.
A post-disaster needs assessment (PDNA) exercise led by the Government of Haiti, and involving the United Nations, the World Bank, the European Union and the Inter-American Development Bank, has concluded. The PDNA will be the basis for discussions and pledges during the International Donors' Conference Towards a New Future for Haiti, to be held at United Nations headquarters in New York on March 31, 2010.
Canadian Forces response to the earthquake: Operation HESTIA
At the peak of Operation HESTIA—the Canadian Forces mission in response to the earthquake—more than 2,000 soldiers, sailors and Air Force personnel were deployed to assist in the immediate relief efforts. Members of Joint Task Force Haiti—a humanitarian operations task force—worked on excavation and construction of latrines at orphanages and performed various construction tasks in camps for internally displaced people. They also performed security duties and assisted United Nations and non-governmental organizations with the distribution of humanitarian aid in three areas: Jacmel, Léogâne and Port-au-Prince. In addition, they produced over 2 million litres of clean water.
Canadian Forces personnel attended to more than 16,000 patients at the Role 1 clinic in Jacmel, which provided basic health care services, and the Role 2 hospital in Léogâne, which provided operating rooms, a pharmacy and dental services. The personnel saw an additional 5,558 patients at various village medical outreach clinics.
Canadian police continuing contributions
The Canadian police contingent continues its operations in Haiti. Currently, Canada has 85 civilian police officers in Haiti who are mentoring the Haitian National Police in Port-au-Prince and across the country. Canadian United Nations Police are implementing the mandate of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) in Port-au-Prince and in the rest of the country.
On February 18, RCMP Chief Superintendent Marc Tardif was appointed by the United Nations as Deputy Commissioner of Operations for MINUSTAH.
In the earthquake's immediate aftermath, the RCMP assembled and deployed teams of experts, including investigators and forensic identification specialists, to assist with the recovery and the identification of victims. The teams worked in close collaboration with the consular team at the Canadian embassy and played a critical role in the identification of the 46 Canadian victims of the earthquake.
Special immigration measures and Operation Stork
The Government of Canada has also implemented special immigration measures, giving priority to new and existing sponsorship applications from Canadian citizens and permanent residents who have family in Haiti. Since the measures were implemented, over 1,600 temporary resident visas have been issued, most to people accompanying Canadian citizens being evacuated from Haiti.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) has set up a unit in Ottawa that is supporting CIC's office in Haiti by identifying and expediting existing adoption and family class sponsorship applications. The office in Ottawa has responsibility for processing these applications until the Haiti office resumes normal operations. As of March 12, a total of 205 permanent resident visas had been issued. More visas will be issued in the coming weeks and months.
Operation Stork has resulted in the successful union of 203 Haitian children with their adoptive families in Canada since the earthquake struck and Haiti's Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive gave permission for children to be allowed to travel to Canada for adoption. In just a month and a half, the Government of Canada and the provinces and territories processed as many cases from Haiti as are normally done in about two years. The numbers of children going to each province are as follows:
- 127 children went to Quebec;
- 27 to Alberta;
- 21 to British Columbia;
- 10 to Saskatchewan;
- 8 to Ontario;
- 6 to New Brunswick;
- 2 to Manitoba; and
- 2 to Nova Scotia.
Temporary government administrative base
In February, Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced Canada's contribution of up to $12 million for temporary administrative facilities, following a request by Prime Minister Bellerive for Canada to establish a working area for key Haitian government officials. These facilities will enable the Haitian government to more effectively manage and coordinate the hard work ahead.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ A Kansas City couple has been charged with keeping a 9-year-old girl in a filthy basement and allowing her to go to the bathroom only outdoors.
Jackson County prosecutors announced Wednesday that the girl's 30-year-old father and his 27-year-old live-in girlfriend each face one count of abuse or neglect of a child, child endangerment and felonious restraint.
Court records say authorities were called after a school nurse became concerned. The parents told authorities that the girl had slept in the basement since February and was locked there during the day as punishment for a recent school suspension.
Deputies said that sewage was leaking into the basement and that the girl slept on a deflated air mattress. The couple said the girl stayed down there because she lacks bladder control.

Our Top 10 Baby Essentials for the First Two Months
I can't believe our little lady is two months old. I know it's so cliché, but it truly is incredible how fast babies grow. She's already 3.5″ longer, almost four pounds heavier, and infinitely cuter than when we brought her home in November. We get lots of smiles and coos every day and are generally delighted by her presence in our life.
There are a lot of things that have made living with a newborn a little easier and prettier. This list comprises our absolute favorites.
1. Forget the bulb syringes you get at the hospital, the NoseFrida snot sucker is the boss when it comes to clearing congestion from a little nose.
2. Homedics SoundSpa On-The-Go is great for soothing at home and as the name suggests on the go. I like it because it has a timer that shuts the machine down after 15 minutes.
3. These diapers from Honest.com are the jam. They are biodegradable, chemical free, affordable, and most importantly fantastically absorbent. We love that they are delivered to us every month and that they come in such fun patterns.
4. Coming up with ways to play with a newborn is tough. We really like this rattle because it grabs Matilda's attention long enough for us to work on her vision and focus and the textured handle is fun for her to hold.
5. All hail the bouncy seat, creator of Tilly's most comfortable naps.
6. While there are a lot of ways you could jerry-rig a similar set up, this mat is fantastic, mostly because of the froggy pillow that has made tummy-time much more enjoyable for the lady baby.
7. For nighttime warmth and swaddling, we've found Halo sleep sacks to be pretty darn easy. They used them at the hospital and we like how there is the option for both a full swaddle as well as just swaddling her trunk. The Miracle Blanket is also awesome.
8. If you want a blanket that is literally made of soft, fluffy clouds, Little Giraffe has what you need. I love wrapping Matilda up in her Luxe blanket because it's such a cozy snuggle for both of us.
9. I bought a bunch of Jennifer Ann head wraps pretty much right after I found out we were having a girl. They have proven to be a great investment as they are not only adorable, but also comfier and less cumbersome than some of her other hair accessories.
10. Little kicking feet are hard to keep socks on and thus, hard to keep warm. These booties are adorable and have an adjustable snap around the ankle so they can't be kicked off.
Some other clutch gear we use is the Puj tub, Mustela foam shampoo, the Moby and Ergo baby carriers,and the JJ Cole Bundleme.
Other mamas out there, what other products, gear, etc. can't you live without? What do I need for the next two months?

CORPUS CHRISTI - 32-year old Jacob Crow, the man police arrested last week, is now charged with the murder of 70-year old Charles Noack. Last week Crow's sister, a neighbor of Noack's, called police out to Nemec Street after Noack's car went. That's when police found Noack dead on a bed.
Later two of Crow's friends who are brother talked to police. Court documents state brother number one received a text message from brother number two saying: "just stole a car with my homie", meaning Crow.
The brothers also told investigators Crow said, "I ain't going to lie to you I murdered this dude and I took his car."
Police say Crow confessed to the two brothers at brother number two's Weber Square Apartment, at the same time police were outside investigating Noack's missing car in the parking lot.
Both brothers then told police different stories about why and how Crow killed Noack.
Brother number one told police Crow strangled Noack with a water hose because Noack had threatened his sister.
While the brother two told detectives Crow "strangled Noack with a blanket".
Reportedly the brothers told detectives that Crow's sister told them "her brother(Crow)needed to get out of town and she had three hundred dollars."
Police have yet to say if strangulation played a roll in Noack's death. But according to the Nueces County Medical Examiner's Office Noack died from trauma to the head.
Police have not to release an motive for the killing.

On February 2, 1998, the government of Ontario introduced the Commercial Vehicle Impoundment Program as part of its aggressive campaign to improve commercial vehicle safety in this province. This program was a principle recommendation of Target '97, a joint industry/government task force which has worked together closely to improve truck safety in Ontario. Ontario is the first jurisdiction in North America to introduce impoundment for seriously unsafe trucks, buses and trailers.
Commercial Vehicle Impoundment is part of a progressive enforcement program where critically defective commercial vehicles are impounded for a minimum of 15 days. Ontario is the first jurisdiction in North America to impound commercial vehicles for critical defects.
If one or more critical defects are found on a bus, truck or trailer, an officer will remove the plates and inspection stickers from the specific vehicle unit. Vehicles will not be impounded for failing to meet Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) out-of-service standards. A vehicle found with a critical defect would be in much worse condition than a vehicle placed out-of-service.
The Registrar of Motor Vehicles (Registrar) issues an order to impound the vehicle and suspend the vehicle registration. The vehicle's load will be removed at the inspection location and the vehicle will be transported, by a third party contractor, to a secure impound facility.
The vehicle must remain at the impound facility for the designated period. The owner may claim the vehicle after all costs associated with the towing, removal and impoundment of the vehicle have been paid. The vehicle must then be certified as safe before it can be operated in Ontario. Vehicle repairs can only be conducted at a Motor Vehicle Inspection Station following removal from impound. Commercial vehicles abandoned at impound facilities will be disposed of under the provisions of the Repair and Storage Liens Act.
Any commercial vehicle that is operated by a Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR) or National Safety Code (NSC) holder or one that would require CVOR or NSC registration and has a gross weight or registered gross weight exceeding 4,500 kg may be subject to impound if it is operated with critical defects. This includes buses, trucks, and trailers drawn by these vehicles.
Ambulances, fire vehicles, hearses, casket wagons, mobile cranes, motor homes and tow trucks are not affected by this legislation.
The critical defect criteria set out very clear guidelines for determining when defects are serious enough to be considered critical to the safe operation of a commercial vehicle or trailer. Critical defect criteria have been developed for brakes, wheels and rims, steering, tires and suspension/frame components.
Commercial vehicles would be in a significantly greater state of disrepair when impounded for critical defects than they would be when taken out-of-service for failing to meet international standards set by the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA). For example, a vehicle is placed out-of-service if 20 per cent or more of its wheels have brake defects. However, this defect would be considered critical if more than 50 per cent of its wheels have brake defects.
The critical defect criteria, which were developed by government and industry, are defined in Regulation 512/97 of the Highway Traffic Act (HTA). Copies of the regulations are available on the web site in Ontario Statutes and Regulations found at www.e-laws.gov.on.ca.
Inspections for critical defects and impoundment are being done at specified truck inspection stations across the province. These stations have been selected based on their strategic location and their exposure to high volumes of commercial traffic.
The impoundment program will be expanded to incorporate other truck inspection stations and mobile enforcement units over time. It is intended that impoundment will eventually take place across Ontario.
Buses, including school buses and motor coaches, are commercial vehicles and are subject to impoundment. Critical defects on buses will be detected at special blitzes held at selected inspection locations.
After the vehicle is inspected and found to have critical defects, charges are laid against the owner and/or operator (truck or bus company) and/or driver. The vehicle is then impounded for a prescribed period. Before the impounded vehicle is removed from the inspection site, it must be off-loaded, repaired and put in a safe condition for towing. Vehicles that cannot be made safe for towing must be placed on a flat bed trailer and floated to the impound facility.
The impoundment period is 15 days for the first incident within a 2 year period. A second incident within 2 years will result in a 30 day impoundment period. A third or subsequent incident within 2 years carries a 60 day impoundment period.
The operator will be charged with "operating an unsafe vehicle" and is responsible for all costs associated with the removal, transfer and storage of the load.
The owner may be charged and is liable for the fees and costs associated with towing and impoundment and cannot use the vehicle for doing business during the impoundment period.
The driver may also be subject to charges.
Fines for safety related offences are set out in the Provincial Offences Act and may be as high as $20,000.
When the impound period is complete, the vehicle is released by the Registrar and must be towed or floated to a qualified repair facility. The vehicle cannot be driven on any Ontario road until a Safety Standards Certificate has been issued. Only then will plates and permits be reissued for the vehicle.
The fees charged for towing, floating, storage of vehicles and goods, and the transfer of loads are established in contracts between the Ministry and impound facilities.
Although a reasonable fee schedule has been established, fees may be higher where towing distances are longer or in urban areas where commercial property costs may be higher.
This is a user pay system whereby the impound facility is paid directly by the owner/operator responsible for the vehicle and load.
Impound facilities are located within a reasonable towing distance of the inspection location they serve. One impound facility may provide service to more than one inspection location if the facility is in close proximity to multiple inspection sites.
Impound facilities are selected based on their ability to provide secure, reliable service at a reasonable cost.
All impounded vehicles must be off-loaded at the inspection site. The load must be transferred to another truck or trailer.
The transfer of loads and loss of perishable cargo is the responsibility of the operator of the vehicle. Where buses are impounded, the operator is responsible for providing alternate transportation.
The owner of the vehicle is the only party who can appeal the impoundment. An appeal may be made to the Licence Appeal Tribunal on one of two grounds:
During the appeal, the owner may apply to the Superior Court of Justice to have the vehicle released from the impound facility after all impound fees and towing charges have been paid and security has been posted. The Superior Court of Justice will set security of between $5,000 and $10,000.
If the appeal is successful, the owner will be reimbursed by the crown for the cost of towing and impound fees for the vehicle.
If the Order to Impound and Suspend is not overturned, the owner must return the vehicle to the impound facility for the remainder of the impoundment period or forfeit the posted security.
Appeals will be conducted orally unless a written hearing is requested and agreed upon. Hearings will be heard as quickly as possible and decided on within 30 days where required. Appeals may be heard in numerous locations across Ontario.
The impoundment event will be recorded on the operator's CVOR record.

The Role of Culture & Media
Part of the problem is the split in our culture between "physical" and "mental." Our minds and bodies are interconnected and excess weight can be a sign of systemic imbalance This imbalance is also caused by our culture's overvaluing of thinness and the unrealistic, surgery or liposuction-enhanced role models we see on tv and in magazines every day. Studies show that the average model is thinner than 97% of Americans, yet this is what we are told we should be like. We all have different genes, family backgrounds, and life demands or stresses, and these limit what we can look like. In order to meet the cultural ideal, most of us would have to starve ourselves, take diet pills, smoke, spend money we don't have, and adopt a variety of other negative & unhealthy behaviors.

1980 Chevrolet Corvette Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 15 reviews
While 1980 marked the beginning of a decade known for excess, the Chevrolet Corvette was reducing its exterior rather than adding to it. Both the front and rear bumper of this model were made sleeker, giving the Corvette a meaner, leaner look.
The US government also stepped in on the paring down: new cars were not allowed to have speedometers with readings up to 85. Despite the limits in speed readings, the Corvette remained as powerful as always, with its 350ci, 230 horsepower engine (except in California where it was limited to 305ci, 180hp).

The folks at Kumho Tires are rolling out scented tires… for the ladies. And I'm rolling my eyes at the horrid pun I just dropped back there. Personally, I like the smell of tires. I'm not too crazy about the smell of burnouts, but there's something oddly alluring about the slightly-toxic scent of new tires.
I imagine that the new lavender scented tires will be very popular with the pimps and the ladies alike. This is not just a concept- these tires are on sale now!
Kumho also has tires that make colored smoke when you burn out! Very creative. I wonder if they leave colored skid marks. Also, what a great marketing ploy- selling tires that reward you for wearing them out faster!

FLORHAM PARK, N. Wes Welker Womens Jersey .J. —Darrelle Revis is feeling better these days, recovering from the concussion that sidelined him Sunday. The New York Jets All-Pro cornerback still isnt sure, though, if hell be back in uniform for the teams next game at Miami. "Im going through the tests and things" Revis said Monday, "and doing what I need to get back and help my team." And the Jets sure could use him after they lost 27-10 to the Pittsburgh Steelers, with the AFC East-rival Dolphins up next. Revis suffered what the team called a "minor concussion" last Sunday in the season opener against Buffalo when he made a diving attempt to tackle the Bills C.J. Spiller and then teammate Bart Scott accidentally kicked him in the head. He said he felt as though he was in "a fog" after he was first hurt, but has gotten progressively better since. He was cleared to participate in non-contact drills Friday, but ruled out for the game. He had been limited to light running and lifting weights earlier in the week. "I feel good," he said. "I feel pretty good. The only way we can figure it out is the things that Im doing test-wise, what the doctors are putting me through. From those results, theyre showing up great, and Ive just got to keep on passing those tests and move forward." Revis needs to be cleared by the team physician and an independent neurological consultant in order to first practice with full contact and then play. Because of the NFL protocol for players with head injuries, coach Rex Ryan cant definitely say hell have Revis back in his secondary on Sunday. "I dont think you can assume that," Ryan said. "He has to—to the NFL standards—pass those tests right now. He looks to be doing well, so hopefully he will be playing." The teams characterization of the concussion as "minor" didnt matter to Revis, who is hoping to feel 100 per cent soon. "Any blow to the head, you have to take it serious," he said, adding that he never experienced any sensitivity to light or other usual side effects. "Mild, severe, whatever it could be, its still a head injury and thats how youve got to look at it." Revis said one day of the testing might be better than the previous day, so he has had to be patient during the process. It is the first concussion he suffered at any level of football. He was replaced in the starting defence by Kyle Wilson, who had a solid game in his absence. But, Revis is considered by many to be the best cornerback in the league, a player who changes offensive game plans because of how he shuts down opposing wide receivers. The Jets clearly missed his presence against the Steelers speedy trip of Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown and Emanuel Sanders. "I really wanted to be out there to play with my teammates," Revis said. "You know, looking at the tape, theres things we did that we can easily correct. Not taking anything away from the Steelers, who are a great team. But theres things we need to clean up on our end for us to be better." Throughout the last week, Revis has spoken several times to teammate Eric Smith, who has missed time during his career after suffering a few concussions. "Weve been joking around a little bit, not to say this isnt a serious matter," Revis said, "but I would always joke (in the past) with Smitty and say, Get back because we need you. Now, hes saying that to me." Ryan had no injury updates on fullback John Conner, who appeared to sprain his right knee for the second straight game, or tight end Dustin Keller and linebacker Bryan Thomas, who missed the game with hamstring injuries. Quarterback Mark Sanchez took a helmet-to-helmet hit from Lawrence Timmons early in the game, but remained in the game. Ryan said there was no concern that Sanchez might have suffered a head injury, although he said he had "no idea" if he had concussion-related tests after the game or on Monday. "Ive been in meetings the whole day, so Im not sure," Ryan said. "I thought he was engaged on the sideline. I thought he seemed to be sharp on the sideline." Wes Welker Jersey . According to the Winnipeg Sun, Enstrom has signed with EC Red Bull Salzburg of the Austrian League and could be in the lineup by Friday. Enstrom had been working out with MoDo of the Swedish Elite League before signing a one-year deal with Salzburg that includes an out-clause in the event of the lockout coming to an end.
