Futures Traders
Futures are financial contracts giving the buyer an obligation to purchase an asset (and the seller an obligation to sell an asset) at a set price at a future point in time. Futures are also called futures contracts.
There are four main types of futures traders in the futures market, creating the liquid futures trading environment that we see today. No matter what a trader chooses to do in futures trading, they will inevitably fall into one or more of these types. The four types of futures traders are really classified based on the purpose of their trades rather than the actual trading strategy itself, as the same futures strategy can be applied for various purposes. They are:
- Hedgers: Hedgers do with futures contracts what futures contracts were initially designed to do when they were first developed along the rivers of Chicago, which is to hedge against price risk. A trader is a hedger when they go short on futures contracts while owning the underlying asset or other futures contracts of the same or related underlying in order to protect their existing positions against price fluctuations.
- Speculators: Speculators form the backbone of the futures trading market we see today. They provide liquidity and activity in the futures trading market through their day trading or swing trading strategies, buying and selling futures contracts outright in order to speculate on a strong directional move. This is also the most dangerous way of trading futures, as the price of the underlying asset could just as easily come around and put your position in a loss deep enough for a margin call.
- Arbitrageurs: Arbitrageurs are futures traders that are in the market in order to spot price anomalies between futures contracts and their underlying assets in order to reap a risk free return. Arbitrage is another huge source of volume and liquidity in the market as it typically takes an extremely big fund and big trading volume in order to return a worthwhile profit in arbitrage. Arbitrage is such a competitive area right now that super computers with powerful programs to spot such opportunities are set to perform such arbitrage automatically.
- Spreaders: Spreaders are futures traders that specialize in trading futures contracts in combination with other futures contracts or underlying assets in order to reduce risk and to extend profitability. Such complex futures positions are known as "Futures Spreads" or "Futures Strategies." This is a very professional and highly specialized field that has only recently been made known to the general public and makes use of the difference in price and rate of change in price of different offsetting futures contracts in order to create futures positions that move within certain limits and have a much higher chance of profit with a lot lower commissions.
Examples of futures at work
The assets often traded in futures contracts include commodities, stocks, and bonds. Grain, precious metals, electricity, oil, beef, orange juice and natural gas are traditional examples of commodities, but foreign currencies, emissions credits, bandwidth and certain financial instruments are also part of today's commodity markets. Two types of futures traders' response to these assets are:
- Hedgers do not usually seek a profit by trading commodities, but rather seek to stabilize the revenues or costs of their business operations. Their gains or losses are usually offset to some degree by a corresponding loss or gain in the market for the underlying physical commodity.
- Speculators are usually not interested in taking possession of the underlying assets. They essentially place bets on the future prices of certain commodities. Thus, if they disagree with the consensus that wheat prices are going to fall, they might buy a futures contract. If their prediction is right and wheat prices increase, they could make money by selling the futures contract (which is now worth a lot more) before it expires (this prevents them from having to take delivery of the wheat as well). Speculators are often blamed for big price swings, but they also provide liquidity to the futures market.
Futures contracts are standardized, meaning that they specify the underlying commodity's quality, quantity, and delivery so that the prices mean the same thing to everyone in the market. For example, each kind of crude oil (light sweet crude, for example) must meet the same quality specifications so that light sweet crude from one producer is no different from another and the buyer of light sweet crude futures knows exactly what they are getting.
Futures trading is a zero-sum game; that is, if somebody makes a million dollars, somebody else loses a million dollars. Because futures contracts can be purchased on margin, meaning that the investor can buy a contract with a partial loan from his or her broker, futures traders have an incredible amount of leverage with which to trade thousands or millions of dollars' worth of contracts with very little of their own money.Forex Traders

I am developing an Android application which should record a video. There are certain classes that I cannot change due to restrictions of the project, like Preview and VideoRec classes.
Application has one main screen activity and there is a toggle button. Whenever toggle button is checked, video recording should start and vice versa for the unchecked state.
However, VideoRec class' constructor takes a View type parameter for input (VideoRec(View x)). Main activity's screen has a surfaceview and several buttons. What I am trying to do is to just initiate video recording on the same screen, just like the default mediarecorder application of any phone.
My question is; I keep on failing to obtain the View of the screen. I can't use preview or surfaceView types, I get errors saying either classCast Exceptions or invalid preview/surface preview.
Long story short, how can i get the activity's screen as a type of View?

The Ultimate Fighting Championship released a bevvy of fighters following this past weekend's UFC on Fuel TV 7, with several prominent names among them.
Perhaps the most surprising among the 16 fighters released was Jon Fitch, who is widely considered a Top 10 welterweight, and currently sits at No. 9 in the official UFC Fighter Rankings.
The other fighters that received their walking papers, according to an MMAFighting.com report citing UFC president Dana White, include: Terry Etim, Ulysses Gomez, Josh Grispi, Jay Hieron, C.J. Keith, Vladimir Matyushenko, Che Mills, Wagner Prado, Mike Russow, Jorge Santiago, Paul Sass, Mike Stumpf, Motonobu Tezuka, Simeon Thoresen, and Jacob Volkmann.
Fitch has a 24-5-1 overall professional record and is 14-3-1 in the Octagon. He is 1-2-1 in his last four fights, but that victory was over Erick Silva in October in a Fight of the Night performance that was also considered by many to vie for Fight of the Year honors.
Several of the other fighters released were maybe considered borderline, but not extremely surprising, especially considering the current state of the UFC roster.
The promotion is operating more events than ever, but just assimilated nearly the entire Strikeforce roster upon that promotion's closure. Doing so bumped the UFC's total number of fighters under contract into the neighborhood of 500.
Several fighters without scheduled bouts that MMAWeekly.com spoke with over the past few weeks said that they were just waiting for a phone call, keeping themselves at the ready in case someone got injured, because they were told that there just weren't enough spots open to keep everyone scheduled.
There heat is always on fighters to perform, but the temperature of fire has gone up by a few degrees as the UFC roster is busting at the seams.
UFC officials had not yet responded to a request for comment on the roster moves at the time of publication.

Be Yourself in Love and See What is Real and Psychic Questions Answered
in Spirituality
I often see people changing and not being themselves when they love someone. This is before the relationship begins. This does a disservice to you and to the person you want to be with. Just be yourself. When you try too hard you will come across as strange. I've been asked how much is is destiny or free will when it comes to love relationships?
Above all God created us with free will. Sometimes, relationships are destiny and meant to happen as life is a learning experience. However, even with that being said anything can change someone's free will. You can change the dynamics of the relationship consciously or subconscousy.
People often miss the fact that love is patient and love is kind. When I read for someone and they want an exact date of when they will be with someone it is not a rational question. I will explain more.
Also, see what is real. Why someone is contacting you or returning your emails or phone calls. You might be reading too much into it. This is why I tell you to be yourself and the rest will follow.
I will discuss more.
I wil also take psychic questions. You can reach me for a detailed reading by email email@example.com

Marisa de los Santos, Mary Norris & Charles Finch
in Books
Don't miss the hour we're spending with two New York Times best-selling novelists and a Common Queen. We'll also give away the books we're featuring, as we talk with:
Marisa de los Santos. Her newly released novel The Precious One tells the story of half-sisters Taisy and Willow, told from their alternating points of view. Brought together by their father, it's a book about family secrets, lost love and dangerous obsession.
Mary Norris. A copy editor at The New Yorker for more than 30 years, her warm and humorous memoir Between You & Me: Confessions of a Comma Queen is not so much about a need for perfect grammar, but about a love for words and language.
Charles Finch. His stand-alone novel The Last Enchantments came out in paperback earlier this month. In it, a Yale grad whose work in politics leads to disappointment finds himself caught in a whirlwind of unexpected friendships, and romantic entanglements, that threaten his safe plans.

Rescued hiker, climber grateful to state, volunteer searchers
Osborne lost his lower right leg and toes on his left foot.
On Saturday, Osborne, a teacher at Southern New Hampshire Montessori Academy, set out on a seven-day bicycle ride in California to raise money for the Challenged Athletes Foundation.
Scoville continues to recover at his mother's home from a head injury, collapsed lungs, broken ribs and cracked vertebrae.
While mistakes were made in both incidents, they were not deemed negligent by the state, according to Fish and Game Col. Martin Garabedian.
Proposed legislation would encourage hikers to buy the card for $25 a year.
Although the state can charge negligent hikers for reasonable rescue costs, those would be waived if the rescued person had purchased the card, much like an insurance plan.

On May 16, 1936, a terror attack on Jerusalem's Edison cinema left three Jews dead and two injured, after an assailant fired five shots into the crowd as they were leaving the theater. The Edison was located in Zichron Moshe, an exclusively Jewish residential area. The shooting was one of a series of attacks carried out between 1936-39, as part of the Arab revolt in Palestine, against British colonial rule and mass Jewish immigration. The Edison theater was closed in 1995, in favor of a housing complex for haredim.

X.Org's XDS2012 Will Celebrate 25 Years Of X11
Published on 11 March 2012 04:20 PM EDT
Written by

15 Comments
Some new details have emerged concerning the 2012 X.Org Developers' Summit, which will take place this September and commemorate 25 years of X11.
First of all, while it's not been officially announced on the mailing lists or elsewhere yet, XDS2012 is expected to happen from the 19th to 21st of September. It's been mentioned on
the XDS2012 Wiki page
and elsewhere and discussed for weeks, like
back at FOSDEM
, but I believe Egbert Eich will be sending out the formal announcement soon.
As shared back in December,
XDS2012 is happening in Bavaria
! Specifically, XDS2012 is taking place in Nürnberg. The likely venue is the SUSE offices in Nürnberg, but this should be officially confirmed and publicly announced in the coming weeks.
The 19 - 21 September dates for XDS2012 are also very ideal. On the 22nd of September this year is when Oktoberfest begins in Munich! I'll be there, as always, for my yearly pilgrimage and be there for the duration of Oktoberfest. For any other XDS2012 attendees, I'll happily give tours of Munich and/or the wiesn, along with my often special seating in the Augustiner tent. Nürnberg is just a quick (and cheap) one hour train ride from Munich, not to mention that most XDS attendees will probably likely fly through MUC as the optimal travel approach. Otherwise check out
my Oktoberfest 2011 guide
the Oktoberfest 2011 benchmark results
Added to the XDS2012 Wiki over the weekend by Alan Coopersmith is that, "We will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the first X11 release (15 September 1987, but we'll round a bit) during this conference, and look forward to you joining us." The X11 birthday is on the 15th of September, which is a few days shy of the start of XDS2012. Those wanting can read the original X11 release announcement on
Google Groups
With the X.Org conferences happening in mid-September, what I usually end up celebrating as well during the event is the mark of AMD's open-source strategy with the Radeon/RadeonHD developers. The
RadeonHD driver was introduced
on the 17th of September in 2007 while on the 6th of September that year is when I broke news to the world of
AMD's open-source strategy
There's also talk of a potential X.Org hiking trip the weekend following XDS2012, but those details have yet to be officially figured out (and would collide with Oktoberfest). Those not familiar with the annual X.Org summits, you can see previous Phoronix coverage from
XDS2008 Edinburgh
XDS2010 Toulouse
, and the
XDC2011 Chicago
X.Org conference that I had organized.
For XDS2012 happening in the great land of Bavaria, I've already agreed to Phoronix sponsoring at least another beer event. At XDS2011 was the introduction of
the popular beer event
where Phoronix sponsored beer event for an afternoon of the conference. The developers seemed to enjoy that (as did I), so that will happen again this year, but will likely be expanded. I'm still working out details with Egbert Eich, the lead organizer of this year's event.
Details will be announced in the coming months, but it may be Phoronix-sponsored beer for the duration of the conference and/or free-beer on the hiking trip. With the 2011 Chicago event requiring a bartender for legal reasons when hosted at an American university, for the cost of the beer and bartender in America for one afternoon, at the same general cost can likely provide beer for the duration of the entire three-day event in Bavaria. Not only that, but with a much better beer selection in Bavaria.
Stay tuned for more details surrounding XDS2012 and there will be plenty of live coverage from the event in September as we celebrate 25 years of X11 and
being on final approach for landing on the Linux desktop.

Galaxy GeForce 7800GTX 512MB - An Affordable Option - The CardThe words "affordable" and "GeForce 7800GTX 512MB" don't usually go together but Galaxy has an answer for you.
The Card
As you would expect from what seems to be the cheapest 512MB 7800GTX on the block, the board follows a very reference design. Some companies simply place a sticker on the front of the cooler but we suppose this takes time and time is money. Once the card is slotted in your PCI Express slot anyway the chances are that you won't be looking at it all that much as opposed to what it can do.
The 7800GTX cooler found on the 512MB cards are great. As you can see we have the heat pipes coming out the top of the card, we can also see here the SLI connector across the top for those who are lucky enough to have two of these bad boys. Moving to the side of the card we can see the aluminum fins coming out the side of the cooler to help move the heat away from the core and memory.
Turning the card over we don't see much at all, because all the memory is located on the front side of the card. You have got your screws all over the card that help keep the cooler on the front in place along with a whole bunch of circuitry that does go over our heads.
Moving over to the side of the card as you would expect with the reference cooler, it takes up two slots in your motherboard and case. We have three normal plugs located on the card, the extremely handy Dual DVI ports along with the S-Video like port that helps us make use of VIVO and Component out with the cables provided inside.
The card to look at isn't anything out of the ordinary or anything exciting. What we want to know is just because it lacks a sticker here and there; does that mean performance is going to suffer? We doubt it.

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - It took three overtimes, but the Utah Jazz eventually prevailed over the Toronto Raptors, 140-133, to pick up their first road victory of the season.
Al Jefferson hit game-tying shots to send the game to a first extra period and then a second. He scored 24 points and pulled down 17 rebounds, while Paul Millsap scored a season-high 34 points. He drained clutch 3-pointers in each of the extra periods for Utah, which had lost its first four road games.
"It took us a long time but we finally got it going," said Jazz head coach Tyrone Corbin. "Guys did a great job of hanging in there, fighting and scratching. I told them that's what they have to do on the road to be successful."
Mo Williams, who was nursing a strained adductor, made his return after sitting out Utah's last game against the Suns. He posted a double-double with 17 points and 14 assists.
Toronto squandered an 11-point fourth quarter lead to drop its fourth straight contest. DeMar DeRozan tied a career-high with 37 points on 16-of-33 shooting, but the Raptors were outscored 15-8 in the final overtime.
Filling in for the injured Kyle Lowry, Jose Calderon dropped 20 points and fell two assists shy of a career-high, dishing out 17 in the loss for the Raptors, who were also without regular starter Landry Fields, sitting for a second straight game with an injured wrist.
"They went out there short-handed, but the guys played hard and left it all on the floor," said Toronto coach Dwane Casey. "They executed, some balls didn't go our way, and Jefferson hit that big three. If anybody said those guys didn't fight, they didn't see the game."
Leading 87-82 to start the fourth, Toronto extended its edge to 11 five minutes into the period following three straight scores, but Utah clawed all the way back and tied the game with 2.2 seconds remaining.
Only up one after a layup from Millsap, Amir Johnson scored on a put back off DeRozan's missed layup with 16.4 seconds remaining in the fourth to give Toronto a three-point cushion.
But Jefferson hit the second 3-pointer of his career after his shot rolled around the rim before falling to tie the game with 2.2 ticks left.
Derrick Favors, who had four blocks to go along with 15 points, rejected Terrence Ross's last-second jumper to send the game to overtime.
The Jazz, who hadn't led the entire game, went ahead after scoring the first four points of the extra period to take a 108-104 lead. After Dominic McGuire's putback brought Toronto within one, Foye found Millsap in the corner for three with 1:33 to play to put the Jazz back up by four.
But Toronto tied the game following four free throws and then retook the lead at 115-113 after DeRozan penetrated the lane and threw down a ferocious dunk with 23.3 seconds left in the first overtime.
Utah responded with a quick score on a hook shot by Jefferson, giving Toronto the opportunity to hold for the final shot, but DeRozan missed on a turnaround fade away and the game headed for a second OT.
Millsap, who scored Utah's first six points in the second overtime, drained a three to give the Jazz a 121-118 lead with 2:10 to play.
After a pair of Williams free throws, the Jazz maintained a three point advantage with 11 seconds to play, but John Lucas III came off a screen and buried a 3-pointer for Toronto with 7.5 ticks to go to tie the game at 125-125.
Williams held for the last shot, got to the basket but couldn't score and the game was sent to triple overtime.
Millsap converted his third 3-pointer in extra time, this one putting the Jazz ahead 134-130 with 2:16 left. Jefferson then drained a 17-foot jumper from the baseline with 30 seconds remaining to put the game out of reach for Toronto.
Both teams shot over 50 percent in the first half, but the Raptors led at halftime 57-52, thanks in large part to Kleiza.
Kleiza, who didn't play in the first quarter, went off in the second for Toronto, scoring 17 points while playing the entire period. He fouled out in the first overtime and finished with 20 points and seven rebounds.
He drained two 3-pointers during the stretch, the second to give the Raptors their biggest lead of the quarter at 57-49 with 1:16 left. However, Williams answered with a trey of his own shortly thereafter and the Jazz went into the half trailing Toronto by five.
The Jazz continued to chip away in third, but were unsuccessful in taking the lead. After pulling within two on a pair of free throws by Marvin Williams early in the period, Jose Calderon immediately answered with a three for the Raptors.
Randy Foye scored six points in a row for Utah, hitting a pair of free throws to cut Toronto's lead to 78-75 with 2:38 left in the quarter, but the Raptors built their advantage back up to eight following a turnaround jumper from DeRozan.
The Raptors fell to 1-6 on the season and tonight was their first of a back-
to-back. They will travel to Indiana to play the Pacers on Tuesday ... Tonight
was the first triple OT game for Toronto since 2001, the Jazz played a triple
overtime contest last season against the Mavericks ... The Jazz won their

Poor Greece look a spent force
Eight years ago they produced a stunning success but there looks to be little hope of a repeat
Sunday 03 June 2012
Heard the one about the Greeks, the German and the Euro? Strange as it seems given the economic crisis gripping Greece, there was a time not so long ago when Euro was less a dirty word for many of its citizens than a cause for national celebration.
It was in summer 2004 that a Greece team led by a German coach, Otto Rehhagel, became the improbable continental champions thanks to a 1-0 victory over Portugal in the European Championship final in Lisbon. "A football miracle that will be very difficult to repeat" is how Stelios Giannakopoulos, the former Bolton Wanderers midfielder, remembers it.
"We didn't go there to win the tournament but game after game we saw that anything is possible. Rehhagel played a big part. He came into a Greek group of players and put German discipline together with the Greek talent – it was a very good combination," adds Stelios, offering an unwitting slogan for Angela Merkel.
Greece had not won a single game at a major tournament prior to Euro 2004 but a 2-1 victory over Portugal in the opening match set them on a fairytale run that included the quarter-final dethroning of France. As their captain and one-time Leicester City midfielder Theodoros Zagorakis puts it: "We began thinking we could do something big."
So it proved but as their successors prepare to face co-hosts Poland in another Euro curtain-raiser in Warsaw on Friday, the achievement of Rehhagel's team feels like a distant dream. On the pitch, Greece topped their qualifying group ahead of Croatia but have won only one of five warm-up matches since –1-0 in Armenia on Thursday – which hardly augurs well, despite their presence in the competition's weakest section. Yet it is off the pitch that Greek football – mirroring the society around it – faces its biggest challenge, whatever welcome distractions Euro 2012 might provide.
"The financial problem is very big and has influenced football," says Stelios, now president of the Greek PFA. "Even some big clubs in Greece have massive problems." If the most successful side, Olympiakos, benefit from their annual Champions' League income, the two other major Athens teams, Panathinaikos and AEK, each have estimated debts of at least €50m, with the latter among several clubs so far denied a licence to compete in next season's Super League.
Zagorakis himself had to step down as president of PAOK Salonika in January after fans reacted angrily to his decision to sell the club's star player, Vieirinha, to help balance the books. He believes Greek clubs must act now to "minimise their debts" and sees PAOK's own focus on youth players as the only way forward.
If Greece is the sick man of Europe, two news stories from the past 12 months highlight the ill health of its football. Last June a bribery scandal broke after Uefa officials handed the Greek authorities a report into irregular betting patterns, mostly involving second-division and cup fixtures. There were 70 arrests, including Vangelis Marinakis – the shipping magnate and Olympiakos chairman– as well as the Olympiakos and Greece defender Avraam Papadopoulos.
Marinakis, who stepped down as the Super League president last summer, was charged with complicity to commit acts of bribery and match manipulation but in the end the only parties punished were Olympiakos Volou and Kavala, two top-flight clubs demoted three divisions – and their jailed owners.
A survey published this year by FIFPro, the world players' union, into football in 12 countries in eastern Europe added grist to the rumour mill: it found 30 per cent of players in Greece had been approached to consider fixing the result of a match, while 47 per cent said they were aware of fixed matches. Moreover, of the 505 players polled, 67.5 per cent do not receive their salaries on time – with some waiting for up to a year.
Those in the national squad are the lucky ones, however. "I do not believethat the Greece players are affected by the economic situation," says Zagorakis. Stelios concurs: "Some play abroad and those in Greek clubs mainly don't have any issues because sooner or later they will get paid."
There is no problem for their Portuguese coach, Fernando Santos, either, who recently received a much-reported salary rise to €600,000 annually. That said, in the run-up to Euro 2012, the Greece players have voiced their desire to give the public at home some much-needed cheer – Georgios Karagounis, one of the survivors of 2004, spoke of helping them "forget for a short time, at least, the problems of everyday life".
Stelios believes this could provide an extra spur and hopes history might repeat itself for Greece – on Friday at least. "The first game will be a key game because we play the hosts and [as when] we played Portugal in the opening game at Euro 2004, the Polish are going to have big pressure because the whole nation is going to expect them to win. They will be nervous, they will be under pressure and we have to take advantage of that."
If not, the final group game against Russia on 16 June could lead to some unwanted headlines the next morning. Just imagine, "Greece exit Euro" on the very day the country's voters go back to the polls.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Guitar Hero 7 was well under way, experimented with six-stringed controller before cancellation
It seems that Activision had done a fair bit of experimenting with the Guitar Hero franchise before they abandoned it completely back at the beginning of 2011.
According to new reports Guitar Hero 7 was well under way and Activision had ditched the microphone and drum kit and experiment with a new six-string guitar controller before eventually deciding to cancel the whole project.
The six-string controller which replaced the strum bar with six strings was eventually abandoned because it was not responsive enough but development continued after that until Eric Hirschberg, president and CEO of Activision Publishing visited the developer Vicarious Visions about half way through GH7's two year development cycle and decided that the project was not worth pursuing.
The source of the reports (anonymous, of course) also suggested, "GH7's woes as emblematic of [developer Vicarious Visions] tendency to overreach with its console games".
Given how well Sleeping Dogs (which began its life as True Crime: Hong Kong and was cancelled at the same time as Guitar Hero) turned out it would be fair to wonder what might have been had Activision given GH7 the time and the support needed to complete the project.
Thanks Kotaku.

Tendon injuries are common and a significant source of pain and disability. Tendon injuries are often treated with a variety of non-surgical (e.g., physical therapy) and surgical interventions, along with a reduction of normal physical activities as the tendon heals [1–3]. However, it is difficult to objectively determine when the tendon has healed sufficiently and has the functional capacity to return to normal activities. Previous research has documented the functional capacity of tendons by measuring their stiffness under in vitro [4, 5] and in vivo [6, 7] conditions, but the technologies used for measuring tendon stiffness are applicable only to in vitro conditions (e.g., mechanical testing systems) or require the highly invasive implantation of sensors (e.g., strain gauges) under in vivo conditions. Conventional imaging modalities (e.g., ultrasound, MRI) can monitor changes in the appearance of tendons over time, but these imaging modalities do not provide an objective ...
