Comment of the Day: free agent speculation in a nutshell
Nov 1, 2011, 11:00 AM EDT
Reader snowbirdgothic, commenting on the David Eckstein/Pujols story this morning, pretty much nails the nature of free agency speculation in the sporting press:
Somewhere, there's a lonely, honest sportswriter who's going to pen a piece called "Albert Pujols is going somewhere they're going to back up a dump truck full of money to his house, and none of this other crap matters, but we can't say that and we have column inches to fill."
He will then, immediately, be fired, and his replacement will do 1200 words on how Rex Hudler believes that if Pujols goes to Chicago, he's not a true Cardinal.
It really is that simple. There are a handful of people who actually know stuff, and even they don't know it until right before something is announced. The rest of us are mostly just farting around. Nothing wrong with that — farting around is a lot of fun and gets us through the winter — but let's not pretend it's anything more than farting around.

I believe it was Vonnegut who basically said the exact same thing about life in general. I forget which book it was…
Also reminds me of the Jay Farrar quote: "Maybe a waste of words and time, but never a waste of life."
- nolanwiffle - Nov 1, 2011 at 12:08 PM
Not a fan of Zappa, but Son Volt is a whole different story. Well-played.
- Kyle - Nov 1, 2011 at 12:49 PM
"We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you any different." Mostly attributed to Man Without A Country, although he had been saying the same general thing for years. He repeated himself a lot as he got older.
- Mark Armour - Nov 1, 2011 at 11:27 AM
True, although in the interest of honesty perhaps all the farting around posts all over the internet should start with the sentence: "The following post is just farting around and involves zero actual knowledge of the situation." That could save some time, though it would reduce the comments section considerably.
- Francisco (FC) - Nov 1, 2011 at 11:47 AM
It at least warns you not take a deep breath…
- WhenMattStairsIsKing - Nov 1, 2011 at 11:47 AM
Tell Jon Heyman that. He believes himself half the time.

A dump truck is not big enough to hold all the money it will take to sign pujols

They'll use one of those giant novelty cheques anyways; that way they can get all the zero's on it.

- natstowngreg - Nov 1, 2011 at 2:08 PM
The honest reporter was fired because he didn't give the consumers what they wanted — endless, meaningless speculation. Preferably, biased to please the consumers (in this example, Cardinals fans). Fuel for endless arguments over nothing of significance.
Yes Craig, you are just farting around. Keep up the good work.Without real baseball, we need it.
- Old Gator - Nov 1, 2011 at 9:23 PM
So that's what they're speculating in a nutshell, but what are they saying in Kandor and Whoville?

Carrie and Erwan are wonderful hosts! They live in one of the quieter neighborhoods in Montreal. They are friendly and super knowledgable about the city and can answer all your questions. The apartment is nice, bright, and clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The shower is a welcome relief for those on the road. You are free to move around the apartment as you need and there is a lovely balcony in the back. Pets are super cute too! Just be patient with Monsieur Zig Zag as he is a puppy and still learning :)
Carrie and Erwan were very kind and welcoming. Carrie responded to all my emails and msgs very fast. Their place is located near 2 Metro station with many good Eateries and Bakeries. The room is neat, small and clean. The bed is double, therefore is suitable for 1 person. Their pets very friendly and cute. The only downside of their place is that because of the pets the dining and bathroom area were a bit dusty.
Overall I recommend their room for one guest.
Just as described and shown in the pictures. Carrie wasn't there but Erwan was friendly and helpful. His English is a lot better than he thinks. A nice neighbourhood and really convenient to get into Central Montreal on the metro
Nous avons passez 5 jours chez Carrie et Erwan, ce fut très agréable, un peu comme à la maison :-), accueil très chaleureux, plein de bon conseil et de rigolade!!! très bien situer, allez y les yeux fermé!!
Carrie and Erwan were very nice. Their home was clean and all common amenities were provided. The house was conveniently located to the Metro and various eating and shopping establishments.
Merci Erwan d'avoir attendu notre arrivée malgré l'heure tardive!
Nous n'avons juste été que de passage et nous n'avons vu que Erwan mais c'était très sympatique.N'hésitez pas surtout!!

"I love these and I love that you can create cute cupcake decorations by placing these on top. What a great way to decorate birthday cupcakes at a reasonable price!"
"Great idea for favor size boxes, treat bags, candy buffet labels. Going to order more for other ideas for my daughters shower."
"I love to be creative when wrapping pressents for my kids' friends, so this was a perfect way to have thier picture on thier gift tag. The product is great and would order them again!"
"These are super cute. We are using them to stick on little treat bags for our daughter's birthday treats for her preschool class.. We had then printed to read Lily's 2nd Birthday! They are great!"
"These are the perfect touch for sealing a card, a goodie bag, or making custom labels for different party favors. The only complaint is a minor one of the ink quality...just a tad lighter than the picture online (almost like I printed them myself) I had debated wether or not they were worth it, needless to say, I will definitely add these to all my future orders! Bonus: I received my order nearly a week earlier than expected."

Don't lose your likeability
by K Karson
posted May 11 2012 4:52PM
That's my advice to many Wisconsin drivers. The perception (might be a stereotype) about Wisco drivers is that they are more laid back, less likely to be agressive and aren't in a hurry. Something that I always liked. Back in the day..... (from the viewpoint of a flatlander) I could always count on good ole Wisconsin for a much needed respite from my hometown. Illinois/Chicagoland drivers, for the most part, are in a big hurry for no apparent reason. High-strung, me first, overcalcuated fury and fight.
Lately, I've noticed a trend. Over the past 4 years Wisconsin drivers are starting to drive like Illinois drivers. Overly aggressive, tailgatey, and in a hurry... to go nowhere. Because let's face it, where are you going? Are you in a rush to get home and sit on your couch with a big bag of tostitos? It'll wait. Relax. Wisconsin Drivers: Don't continue this trend. Your likeability is almost completely dependant on the friendly, laid back, personal vibe both on and off the roads. If you lose that, you've lost your identity... and will free-fall into a vortex of new school souless despair. xoxo Kraig

Traditional Conical Rwandan Basket with Lid
Roll over image to zoom in
Outlet! Was $24.95!
Baskets have served many functions in Rwandan history -- holding food, celebrating weddings, and carrying secrets from one woman to another. This traditional basket is handwoven by the artisans of Gahaya Links -- a group founded in 2003 by Janet Nkubana and Joy Ndungutse, two sisters who are improving the rural Rwandan economy through the marketing of artisan handicrafts. The baskets are made from natural fibers, utilizing a technique that has been practiced for almost a thousand years.
Rwanda, a tiny and extremely poor country in the lakes region of East Africa, experienced a devastating civil war in 1994. Handicrafts such as these baskets form a major source of income for Rwandan people -- and are a testament to the strength of the proud Rwandan people and their commitment to weaving a lasting peace.
Without lid, basket measures approximately 4.5" T x 5" dia. (11.4 x 12.7 cm), and the lid is about 5" T (12.7 cm). A tiny looped handle sits at the tip of the lid. Handwoven in and fairly traded from Rwanda.
Created to help women worldwide gain economic security for themselves and their families by earning fair wages for their handiwork, Global Girlfriend sources women-made, fair-trade imported, eco-friendly products. By supporting long-term partnerships with the artisans, it fosters equal employment opportunities, healthy and safe working conditions, technical assistance, and development strategies to help reduce poverty, one community at a time. Become a "Global Girlfriend" and help build a brighter future for girlfriends around the globe!

Artisan: Gahaya Links
In the tiny, land-locked country of Rwanda, ravaged by the 1994 genocide that created hundreds of thousands of widows, hope might seem hard to come by. But this conflict-ravaged place is also the home to Gahaya Links, a company with a vision of peace between Hutus and Tutsis, of employment and income for female heads of household, and of a brighter future for all.
Gahaya Links was founded in 2003 by Joy Ndungutse and Janet Nkubana, two sisters who have found that the way to weave straw into gold is through fair trade. Gahaya Links works with 54 cooperatives throughout Rwanda, employing thousands of weavers, most of whom are women. Each cooperative is run by a democratically-elected president, secretary, and treasurer -- literacy is the only requirement -- and each cooperative is structured so that Hutu and Tutsi weavers work side by side, promoting reconciliation as the country struggles to come back from its long nightmare.
"Our main achievement is seeing how the women we work with have changed from how they were [directly post-genocide] to how they are now." --Joy Ndungutse
Joy Ndungutse's designs are taught to master weavers from each cooperative, who travel to the headquarters in Kigali to learn new designs and techniques as they are decided upon. The master weavers then return to their cooperatives to teach the other weavers, thus fostering leadership and community as well as guaranteeing standardized quality.
In addition to the weavers' salaries, Gahaya Links puts one dollar into a savings account for each basket completed. The mandatory savings program has enabled the weavers to afford more-nutritious food, pay for their children's education, obtain medical care, and afford to wear shoes. None of these things were possible on their previous incomes.
Through their dedication and work, Joy Ndungutse and Janet Nkubana have created a flourishing business that is sowing the seeds for a lasting peace.

Investment bank Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein (DrKW) has formed a London-based energy trading business, headed by Neil Rothwell.The desk will trade gas and oil, but has no immediate plans to trade electricity. Rothwell previously worked for RWE in London as head of global oil trading. Prior to joining RWE in 1999 he worked for three years in energy derivatives trading at Union Bank of Switzerland in London and Zurich.
In his new role Rothwell will report to Jorge Villon, DrKW's global head of foreign exchange.
"Neil's appointment will enable us to diversify our commodities' activity into energy trading and become an active player in this space, providing further risk diversification within our business," Villon said in a statement. "At RWE, Neil was instrumental in establishing a very successful energy trading business and, during the course of the next 6-12 months, he will leverage that experience in the creation of a new team at DrKW."

Conservative Radio
- November 14, 2014
( 89)
Listen to the top names in conservative radio including Rush Limbaugh, Dana Loesch, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Dennis Miller, Glenn Beck, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved and more on your own schedule.
- Automatic recording of every broadcast - set it and forget it!
- Listen anytime, catch up on missed broadcasts
- Audio controls include fast-forward, rewind, and 30 sec skip.
- Low bandwidth utilization
Won't load... I would love to be able to use this app. I don't get to listen to Rush very often, and was really looking forward to being able to listen anytime I wanted to, but it will not load. Sadly uninstalling.
Fantastic app when I can play it
Won't load Sits and spins
Wanted me to login but when I select new user I put in my email it is forever processing. I had to uninstall. Then reinstall now it says I am registered but I have no password to login. Lost password does not go to a page to reset the password. This app does not work for me. Why do I have to login to listen to radio anyway. I found a better app. Good bye.
Good app like it but dont expect any help from the developer if you have any issues. He doesnt reply except to tell you to watch the video.
Privacy grabber All this app does is download files from the internet and play them back to your head phones. Why does it need to know my exact GPS location, receive text messages, and read my address book? Uninstalling until the publisher cleans this up.
What's New
Improved loading times.
New styles.

James P. "Jim" Gray has accepted a position on the Advisory Board of Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC Bulletin Board, REFG), a leader in technological solutions for the medical cannabis industry. The Advisory Board provides guidance and strategic decision-making for the rollout of MCPS' recently announced payment solution for the medical marijuana industry.
Gray served as a Judge Advocate General in the United States Navy, and was a Superior Court judge in Orange County, California until his retirement in 2009 after over 20 years on the bench of both the Superior Court and the Santa Ana, California municipal court. He has written numerous works and articles on drug policy and regulation, and has sat on the advisory board of the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and the Alcohol Advisory Board to the Orange County (California) Board of Supervisors. In addition to being on the board of councilors of the University of Southern California Law School, Gray was the Libertarian candidate for Vice President of the United States in the 2012 election.
Commenting on Gray's joining Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions' Advisory Board, CEO Jeremy Roberts said, "Jim Gray brings a singular perspective and wealth of experience to our company. His knowledge of government drug policy as a judge, a political candidate, and a scholar have few equals. We are delighted that Jim is bringing his expertise on board to help expand our mission as providers of exceptional services and solutions for medical cannabis regulation."
"I'm very excited about the opportunities Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions offers to shareholders as well as policymakers," Gray said of his position on the Advisory Board. "The services this company provides are a breakthrough in the developing area of legalized medical cannabis treatments, and I look forward to being a part of it."
About Medical Cannabis Payment Systems, Inc.
Our mission is to provide end-to-end management, across multiple management systems, for medicinal marijuana operations. Many medicinal marijuana companies have experienced such rapid growth that they are finding it difficult to manage all aspects of their operation. In order to become a successful and compliant medicinal marijuana operation, effective management must depend on many different systems. REFG solves the fragmentation problem by identifying tools that are important to dispensaries, and customizing those tools specifically catered to the industry. We strive to create awareness within the medicinal marijuana industry and to develop an environmentally friendly, economically sustainable business while increasing shareholder value.

ONE for Capital Markets SaaS solution launches with the support of leading G15 investment banks.
LONDON - Nov 28, 2012 - Thunderhead.com, a leading provider of enterprise solutions for customer experience management - and the industry standard for automating trade documentation for Capital Markets - today announced the launch of its ONE for Capital Markets solution for the cloud.
The cloud solution automates trade and relationship documentation processing and all paper transactions throughout the entire trading lifecycle, across all asset classes and product types, to bolster business performance through enhanced compliance, greater control and reduced costs.
Used by 14 of the G15 investment banks and major energy companies, the leading-edge functionality that has made Thunderhead.com the industry standard is now available as a Software-as-a-Service to the broader trading sector, and provides a path to cloud for existing on-premise customers. Truly leveraging the cloud, the solution provides real-time collaboration capabilities to support secure multi-party negotiation based on a single source of the truth, eliminating the time-consuming and error-prone sequential circulation of documents.
In addition, the solution allows trade data in industry-schema based XML to be fed to downstream processes, enabling rapid integration and regulatory reporting.
The SaaS solution has been developed with advisory support from a group of representatives from the G15 investment banks as well as Sapient Capital Markets to ensure market compliance in line with CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) and ESMA (European Securities and Markets Authority) rules.
The ONE for Capital Markets solution is built on the ONE Enterprise engagement platform, a suite of solutions that enables businesses to engage and collaborate, which launched in San Francisco in September. A fundamental tenet of the ONE platform is its focus on business usability and visual design, for which the Thunderhead.com brand is renowned.
Glen Manchester, CEO, Thunderhead.com said: "We are rolling ONE out across industry sectors, to help our customers meet specific industry challenges. The quality and innovation of our solutions for Capital Markets have made us the industry standard for the global Investment Banking community. With our ONE cloud platform we are able to deliver even richer functionality to the wider trading community."
Kevin Thorogood, Global Head of Capital Markets for Thunderhead.com added:
"What is really exciting is that, with our cloud technology, we are creating a real-time community collaboration platform to streamline the negotiation of contracts and agreements, helping our clients meet the new regulatory requirements for execution and reporting times."
Jude Bly, Director, Sapient Global Markets said: "Financial and energy market participants are in the midst of a challenging and changing time. Complying with increased regulatory requirements has to be balanced with budget constraints while still meeting operational control and business objectives. This is particularly true in relation to the pre and post trade documentation, which is inherently manual and lacks control."
"Thunderhead.com has historically helped the industry leaders solve issues around paper-based transactions. Now, with the introduction of ONE for Capital Markets SaaS solution, the industry as a whole has a tremendous opportunity to dramatically streamline their business processes to meet the new regulations and improve their operational efficiency."
ONE for Capital Markets represents the next stage in Thunderhead.com's journey towards cementing its place as a leader in the enterprise SaaS space.
About Thunderhead.com
Thunderhead.com is a leading provider of enterprise solutions for customer experience management - and the industry standard for automating trade documentation for capital markets. The Thunderhead.com ONE platform provides powerful SaaS solutions that fundamentally change the way businesses engage with each other and their customers. 14 of the G15 investment banks and some of the world's largest energy and commodity companies trust Thunderhead.com to help them simplify trade documentation for all market participants, across all asset classes and product types.

A free webinar will be held on Tuesday 11th December, 2012, exploring the challenges firms face as they transform OTC derivatives trade documentation processing to comply with new regulatory requirements.

why do I love a backyard chicken coop? I guess it reminds me of collecting eggs on my grandparents' farm... guess I'm not the only one, there's several websites and blogs devoted to backyard chickens... who knew!?
Reminds me of when my youngest raised chickens and I painted the coop with a sign calling it his chicken farm. I love the idea of "dressing" up the chicken coop with cute decor.
I'd almost agree to have chickens if we had a coop like this. Somehow I doubt it would stay this clean...
Gardener's Chicken Wellies - OK, so these are not exactly 'chickens', but they are darned cute chicken boots and I'd love to have a pair!!
We raised our girls on real food, and they loved everything I tried with them except for yogurt (go figure). At six weeks old, I introduced them to commercial grower feed. They didn't like it. While I found that to be somewhat annoying, I was very proud them them for knowing the difference between "real food" and manufactured food-like substances.

"Exactly," Garrett said. You could eliminate all nondefense discretionary spending, and you wouldn't solve the problem. You have to go a lot further than that, and that's why we have to touch those other areas."
I pointed out that I don't hear much talk about that.
"Some of us talk about it. You have to touch on each one of these areas and until the American public is cognizant ... that we have to have shared sacrifice."
As a way to get the public involved, Majority Leader Eric Cantor set up "YouCut" back in May -- "a first-of-its-kind project ... designed to defeat the permissive culture of runaway spending in Congress. It allows you to vote, both online and on your cell phone, on spending cuts that you want to see the House enact. Each week, we will take the winning item and offer it to the full House for an up-or-down vote."
People voted to eliminate things like federal pay raises and subsidies for Amtrak sleeper cars. But with the House under Democratic control, none of those programs was cut. We'll see if things are different now.
"We'll be able to make those cuts," Garrett said.
I hope so. I wish they'd pass what I call the Stossel Rule: For every new law, Congress has to repeal two old ones.
America is on a path to bankruptcy. It's easy to get bogged down arguing about lots of small cuts, but we'll only make progress by abolishing whole departments and entire missions. I hope the public understands it has to be done.

Inaugural Dream Comes True
Inaugural Dream Comes True
Becker Couple Attends, Thanks To Generous Donors
A daycare mom and an IT Tech from Becker returned from the president's inauguration Wednesday following an eventful week that almost never happened.
Staff Sgt. Dan Westby and his wife had been invited to the President's Inaugural Ball and received two tickets to the event through Dan's National Guard rank. Tight finances and a shoe-string budget put the once-in-a-lifetime trip in peril.
A few weeks ago, Westby, an IT Tech with the Robbinsdale School District, learned he could put his name in a lottery for a chance to garner a couple of tickets to attend President Barack Obama's second term inauguration this past weekend. One hundred and eighty tickets became available for soldiers nationwide - 130 for Westby's rank.
Westby is one of only two Minnesota soldiers invited to Washington D.C. for the event Monday.
Last Thursday, Dan and his wife, Kari received word they were indeed the beneficiaries of two tickets, so they immediately got busy making plans for the trip as quickly as they could, assuming all expenses were included in the deal.
Kari went out and bought a new gown, Dan reserved a hotel room in one of the few open hotels available for $200-$500 a night. A day or two before the flight, the Westbys were on the verge of cancelling their dream trip because the funding fell through.
That's where the Westby's commend the TV Station WCCO for fulfilling their hopes.
WCCO Reporter Rachel Slavik did a pre-story of the couple last week and in her story she told her viewers the family was considering abandoning the trip.
"We just don't know how we're going to get there," Kari said in the interview. "If we can't go, it's going to break both our hearts."
At that point, the couple began searching for plane tickets -- the cheapest being $600 each.
The Westbys got word immediately after the story ran on TV that donations were coming in to aid them in their trip.
"As soon as people saw that a soldier was involved, people started giving," said Kari. "The station at one point had to stop taking donations because of the generosity of all these people."
Sun Country's CEO contacted the Westbys and told them not to worry about the flight, that he would provide first-class tickets for them to and from Washington D.C. Other donors covered their hotel, spending money, souvenirs for the kids and transportation.
And Kari's beautiful new gown was covered as well.
"A woman from New Prague drove all the way to our house here in Becker to give us a check to pay for our expenses," said Kari. "I was just weeping as I asked her why she would do such a caring thing."
"She told me she wanted to honor a soldier for all they've done for this country," said Kari.
"If it weren't for the generosity of other people that was completely a gift from God, it would not have happened," said Dan.
In Washington, the Westbys got a room in an exclusive hotel along the parade route and near the U.S. Capitol. As part of their special treatment, the Wetstbys were allowed to watch the parade from their hotel rooftop with dozens of snipers and secret service officials nearby.
They also were interviewed live on TV by Reporter Suzanne Malveaux from CNN.
One of the couple's favorite moments was at the Commander-in-Chief's Ball which included guests of active-duty, reserve military, Medal of Honor recipients, Wounded Warriors and their spouses. Dan and Kari had the opportunity to meet and talk to Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, the chief of staff of the U.S. Army.
"Wow, to see the commander in chief and talk with the chief of staff has been like a dream for me," said Dan, who has served for 16 years in the Guard. "I am so blessed to have been given this opportunity to meet my superiors."
Dan has been deployed three times, once to Kosovo in 1999-2000 and twice to Iraq (2003-05, 2009). His duties are to detect enemy forces and track indirect fire as a field artillery radar operator.
Kari works as a daycare provider out of her home and the Westbys have seven children, ages ranging from four to 14. Kari is also attempting to launch a Family Readiness Group (FRG) in Becker and have the City of Becker designated as a "Beyond the Yellow Ribbon" city. Beyond the Yellow Ribbon is a comprehensive program that creates awareness for the purpose of connecting Service members and their families with community support, training, services and resources.
"This whole experience has just been amazing," said Kari. "So many people stepping forward to help us out and showing their appreciation for my husband and his service. It's been like a dream."

We must play against top teams regularly: Sandeep Singh
New Delhi: Ace drag-flicker Sandeep Singh on Tuesday said that the Indian hockey team should play against top teams in the world regularly and prepare longer with the same set of players to avoid a London Olympics-like debacle in future.
Indian hockey touched a new low in the just-concluded London Olympics as the eight-time champions finished last in the 12-team men`s competition. Star of the qualifying tournament, Sandeep too failed to live upto the expectations.
"I feel very sorry for the Indian Hockey fans. They were expecting good show from us but we could not live upto the expectations," Sandeep said.
"We must play against top teams like Australia, Germany, Holland on the regular basis which is lacking so far. It will boost our confidence and we will be able to overcome our weaknesses," said the full back.
Sandeep said that it`s important to play more and more matches together as a unit.
"We have immensely talented players in current team. We just don`t know what went wrong but we have no dearth of talent. If this team with 10-15 youngsters is given four years, we can come better in Rio Olympics (in 2014)," he said.
"This is a young team and players are playing together for last one year. You can not be in top five in Olympic after just one year`s preparation. That is why I am focussing on beginning the preparation for next Olympic," he said.
Asked about the weaker links in the team, he said that there were many areas on which a lot of work needs to be done.
"I had worked really hard on penalty corner conversion but after the games I think I have to work harder. I have identified my weaknesses and I am working on those. We have to work on the play after conceding or scoring a goal. Finishing is also a matter of concern," said the veteran player.
He said that forward line needs better coordination like the one Gagan Ajit Singh, Prabhjot Singh and Deepak Thakur used to have in earlier days.
"In 2001, 02 and 03 our forward line had Gagan Ajit, Prabhjot, Deepak who were playing together since junior days. Their coordination was terrific. We need something like that which will come through experience," said Sandeep.

Fourth day of cycling
There's been thunder and lightning and rain all night and it's still a bit gloomy when we meet for breakfast. The forecast is to clear by about 11am so we will take the van to our first visit today, the Carnac Alignments, and then see how the weather is. Hoping for a bike ride after that. The Carnac Alignments are a series of standing stones that are set in parallel lines. The area is 3kms long and about 50m wide. ...
Third day of cycling
Let's book a cycling holiday in France, she said, for a week, she said, it will be fun, she said. And I remind Rob, it is lots of fun. But bits of me still hurt and I am a bit tired at the end of the ride. Still, if it was easy, anyone could do it :). After a very warm night, in a hotel that doesn't do air conditioning, we wake ready for another day. Then the power goes out which limits breakfast choices and the all important coffee. However, we ...

Followed by Pork (from a Piglet) and home made Frites made from potatoes from the garden and

Each course was a fresh bottle of different wine. Now Dave is excellent at French and holds conversations - I just eat, drink and listen occasionally contributing to the conversation, I can follow what is being said but speak very little.
