That's a transmission "Range/Performance" Code. This means there's other transmission sensors sending faulty data to the PCM. This isn't something you can diagnose without a scanner capable of reading live sensor data and tranny codes.

CFO insight and analysis written and compiled by Deloitte
To keep pace with changing business needs and avoid losing valuable talent, a finance talent strategy should identify top talent needs, lay out paths for employees to acquire and expand required skill sets and experiences, promote customized career development plans and address succession planning. Effective CFO career paths provide chances for vertical and lateral career progression and are flexible to adjust to changing employee interests and business circumstances.
Most CFOs of large North American organizations responding to Deloitte's 3Q 2015 CFO Signals™ survey say their companies are concentrating their efforts on North American growth, with a sharper eye toward costs. Their year-over-year revenue growth expectations rose to more than 4% from the Q2, but remain among the lowest in the survey's five-year history. CFOs' capital spending expectations on a year-over-year basis fell from the second quarter's survey. CFOs also indicate a bias toward investing cash over returning it to shareholders.

U.S. household assets are expected to increase from $87 trillion today to over $140 trillion by 2030, of which nearly $64 trillion will be in investable financial assets, according to new research from the Deloitte Center for Financial Services.

Shoot The Piano Player: The Criterion Collection DVD
Price $39.95
0.00.0(No reviews)Write a Review
Francois Truffaut is drunk on the possibilities of cinema in this, his most playful, anarchic film. Part thriller, part comedy, part tragedy, Shoot the Piano Player relates the adventures of the mild-mannered piano player Charlie (Charles Aznavour, in a triumph of hangdog deadpan) as he stumbles into the criminal underworld and a whirlwind love affair. Loaded with gags, guns, clowns, and thugs, this razor-sharp homage to the American gangster film is pure nouvelle vague.

October 23, 2013

Two of the most difficult challenges faced by federal, state and local officials in the veterans community have been homelessness and employment. While organizations such as the U.S. Small Business Administration and Department of Veterans Affairs have established several progressive strategies to help veterans find homes and work, the private sector is also throwing its hat into the ring.
CBS News recently reported that one brewery in Chicago, Ill., is aiming to only hire employee veterans throughout the entirety of its operations, while the owner aptly named this organization the Veteran Beer Company. When looking at unemployment rates in different demographics, several unsettling facts begin to surface, as the source noted that 88 percent of veterans do not have jobs.
Although the general population has been buckled at the knees because of the nationwide 7.2 percent unemployment rate, the veteran demographic is among the most adversely affected. According to the news provider, Paul Jenkins, the CEO and founder of the Veteran Beer Company, is hoping that he can make a big difference in the city by successfully employing more individuals, and thus putting former military members back to work.
"So rather than sit around and let others solve the problem for us, why not start our own company and figure out how to employ as many veterans as quickly as possible," Jenkins told CBS News. "So the concept behind the Veteran Beer Company is that we will produce the finest beer in America - brewed by, the recipes written by, bottled by, sold by veterans. Everybody in the organization is to be a veteran."
Veterans who are interested in starting their own businesses should consider referencing the International Franchise Association, as well as the Small Business Administration. These organizations have a variety of programs in play that specifically help veteran entrepreneurs start and manage their new companies.

I'm using java 6 and processing some xml documents which are pretty large...I need to parse them and modify some values and then serialize back to the disk.
I used org.w3c.DOM to deserialize the xml documents and modified some attribute values, and I used JAXP Transformer to serialize the dom document that has been changed. But I found that it is really slow...
So I'm wondering is there a more efficient way to serialize the dom document, or handle large xml documents?
I used a timer to record how long it takes for each part, below is for the serialization:
// serialize the updated DOM
TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
long t0 = timer.currentTimeMillis();
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(dom);
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(doc);
transformer.transform(source, result);
long t1 = timer.currentTimeMillis();
Reporter.log("Finished serializing " + doc.getAbsolutePath() + " in " + (((t1 - t0)) / 1000.0f) + " s.", true);
And the log shows:
Finished serializing C:\Usrs\Adminstrator\Documents\Docs\InitialDocument_1.xml in 53 s.

Try again— Global
Overhauling a business can go two ways: it either backfires badly – BA and Coca-Cola know how that feels – or it radically improves profits. Monocle meets 10 businesses taking the gamble and suggests 10 industries in need of a makeover.
Relaunching a business can inject new life into an ailing brand, give a successful product a fresh boost or consign a bad reputation to the past. But for every successful relaunch, there are many that have fallen by the wayside: the history of business is littered with examples of great ideas in theory gone horribly wrong in practice.
From Coca-Cola's launch of New Coke, to the bizarre decision by the UK's trusty Royal Mail to rebrand as Consignia, the business rethink – if managed badly – can be a disaster. In the 1990s, British Airways chief…

A vendor at the farmers market in Wausau accepts tokens from the FoodShare program.

How is publishing the names of those receiving food stamps or Medicaid, as some suggested, going to help do anything but destroy even more of these recipients' self-esteem?
W-2 does not hand out money except for maternity leave and a few other reasons. The rest have to get a job - any job. For most, that means being a cashier at a grocery store, department store, gas station or restaurant, all places people frequent. Try boycotting these places so they pay their employees a better wage or offer health care at an affordable price.
Demand better ways to make absentee parents pay their child support.
Try asking these agencies for help. It's humiliating. Try standing in line at a food pantry.
The only people who get to stay home in the age of W-2 are the disabled and, unless you're the disabled person's doctor, you have no right to question why they get help.
Have you ever known a bipolar or schizophrenic person? Try seeing how they react when they get nervous or upset, even on their medication sometimes.
Unless you've walked in someone's shoes, you have no right to judge. It's no one's right to invade our privacy, no matter where their income comes from.

Better search?
You may have heard of last Monday's Cuil launch. Cuil, apparently pronounced 'cool', is a new search engine of Google-like scope except that, unlike 'Do no evil' Google, it really does respect the privacy of users.
It is the creation of former Google whizzkid, Anna Paterson, from whom four years ago Google acquired Recall, the basis of its current search engine. Early reviews of Cuil have been, as you might expect, a mixed bag from 'just something very intuitive about the interface. And it's fast!', to 'Its founders may have failed to appreciate simplicity, speed, performance, and search relevance to the extent Google has.' The latter comment by Thomas Claburn in the Information Week blog notes that 'The front page is oppressively dark -- I understand that it's a 'cool' color scheme, but it's psychologically stifling.' Hmmm. Something here maybe for the cool grey brigade. But actually my viewing of the site suggests that they have already responded and changed it to a minimalist white background.
More relevant to all those slide shows on architectural websites is this: 'Google talks a lot about the user experience, but it hasn't yet recognized that user control is the defining user experience.'

"We are positive that he will ensure that South African Tourism achieves its mandate. We need a capable leader who is innovative and results-driven."
The party was confident that Mntambo was the right person and would take the country's tourism onto the next level.
"We congratulate Mr Zwelibanzi Mntambo and trust that he will guide the organisation to better serve the industry to ensure that this sector continues to grow."

Page 1: Intro
With luxury cars - especially stretched sedans - where you sit depends on where you stand. Some owners spend more time in the back seat of their cars, being driven, than they do up front, being drivers. It's a rare car that is equally satisfying in either row. The dual role dilemma makes long wheelbase automobiles difficult to design. What's done to make them more pleasant for passengers in back invariably makes them more dull for drivers in front. Adding space can subtract pace, when you factor in weight gain and balance shift. The newest Jaguar neatly avoids this issue, because it didn't pack on the pounds. The elongated Jag is a mere 53 lb. (1.3%) heavier than the standard wheelbase model.Jaguar marked 2004 with the roll-out of their seventh generation XJ. Much of the attention focused on the car's aluminum skin, and the benefits therein. The lighter, stiffer unibody structure allows the double wishbone suspension to do its thing, without having to compensate for chassis limitations. The XJ's ride/handling bias comes down heavier on the ride side - understandable, given its luxury class status. But, the characteristic Jaguar supple feel is in evidence as well. The XJ is light on its feet for a big car and the feedback through the wheel and through your senses is one of being insulated (from unwanted noise and road harshness) but not isolated (from the road or the car). Ditto on long wheelbase models. The added dimensions inside have done nothing to disrupt the car's balanced feel.

Well what a lovely story this is about the six month old lamb in Shropshire.
Jack loves to be different! He tries to herd sheep at his farm in near market.
He also likes fetching sticks and according to his owner Alison, he tries to bark like a dog.
His best friend, springer spaniel Jesse is the reason for this.
This sweet little lamb has become so close to the farm dog he copies what she does.
Jesse the dog has realy took to the lamb and they sleep together, like life long friends in her doggy basket.
Jack was born very small as one of 3 lambs. He was took into Alisons home and fed milk.
He is now treated more like a dog than a lamb. He loves going for walks with Jesse both on their leads.
Alison now walks them both this way. Which im sure is an adoreable sight in near market.

Brandy McCord of Greenwood was crowned Ms. Wheelchair Indiana for 2013. During her yearlong reign, she will speak throughout the state and in July, she'll travel to Houston to compete in the 42nd Ms. Wheelchair America Pageant. Photo provided by Brandy McCord
- Filed Under
Brandy McCord had never heard of the Ms. Wheelchair pageant when her sister encouraged her to compete.
But on March 16, the Greenwood woman was crowned Ms. Wheelchair Indiana for 2013, a pageant sponsored by People on Wheels, an Indianapolis-based organization that is an advocate for wheelchair users.
McCord will now spend a year-long reign speaking at various engagements throughout the state, and in July, she'll travel to Houston to compete in the 42nd Ms. Wheelchair America Pageant.
McCord, 33, is an empathetic champion for the disabled. She's been wheelchair bound for more than nine years due to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, a long-term autoimmune disorder. She's in search of a new kidney so she can maintain her productive, active life.
McCord spends her days assisting special needs criminal offenders as regional re-entry coordinator for Corizon, a medical provider for the Indiana Department of Correction. She also volunteers to help special-needs children.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
While athletes accepting religious vocations continue to make headlines, it really is nothing new. Consider the life of this Paulist priest who was ordained in 1908.The article reports on the ordination two days earlier of Fr. Owen A. McGrath, CSP, at New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral. It reports that Fr. McGrath was a "former quarterback on the Dartmouth football team, and also pitcher of the base-ball nine of the same institution."
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
5/5/2010 (5 years ago)
Published in Vocations
GRAND RAPIDS, MI (Catholic Online) - Sports are fertile ground for cultivating religious vocations. In the last few months alone, Catholic Athletes for Christ has reported through Catholic Online on a bishop who played college basketball, a Franciscan sister who was an Olympic speed skater, a Franciscan friar who is a life-long skateboarder, and a professional baseball player who left a promising career to enter the seminary. We have more stories to share in the months to come.
Yet this is not at all a new development. While athletes accepting religious vocations continue to make headlines, it is really old news.
Consider this headline from the Pittsburgh Press sports section of June 15, 1908: "Former Athlete a Catholic Priest." The article reports on the ordination two days earlier of Fr. Owen A. McGrath, CSP, at New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral. It reports that Fr. McGrath was a "former quarterback on the Dartmouth football team, and also pitcher of the base-ball nine of the same institution."
In the ornamented journalistic style of the day, the reporter writes that "during his four years in Dartmouth he was the means of carrying the colors of his college to victory many times in the contests of the gridiron and diamond."
With the help of Fr. Gilbert Martinez, CSP, Catholic Online was able to learn some details of Fr. McGrath's life and priestly service with the Paulist Fathers. It is fitting that as we profile priests and religious with athletic backgrounds, we remember and honor those who have completed their earthly mission and have gone before us to the heavenly banquet.
Owen Augustine McGrath was born on December 27, 1881, in South Boston. He attended the Boston Latin School, where he garnered a number of athletic awards. At Dartmouth he excelled at football and baseball, and was a member of the Theta Delta Chi fraternity. After beginning theological studies he continued to play baseball at St. Thomas College, the Paulists' home for studies in Washington, DC. He professed first vows on December 8, 1907, and was ordained a priest on June 13, 1908.
Fr. McGrath spent most of his priestly life preaching missions, during which he encouraged devotion to the Cure of Ars and St. Therese of Lisieux. He served as a military chaplain during World War I. Afterwards he was sent to New York City, where he served as Prefect of the Paulist Choir School and also served at St. Paul the Apostle Church.
During Lent of 1935 Fr. McGrath traveled to Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, to preach a mission at the Cathedral. During the mission he was stricken with appendicitis, and died soon after surgery on March 30 at the age of 53. He is buried at St. Paul the Apostle, the Paulists' Mother Church, in New York City.
In the Paulist archives Fr. McGrath is remembered as being "well known for his joyful disposition, combined with a devotional spirit. His manner of preaching was strenuous and rapid-fire." He fulfilled the prediction made about his ministry in the Pittsburgh Press article: "Although he has not yet received any appointment from the Superior of the order, he will probably engage in aggressive mission work. He is an eloquent and forceful preacher, and has the gift of winning the interest and support of boys and young men."
We remember Fr. Owen McGrath, CSP in our prayers, along with all priests who have given their lives in service to Christ and his Church. We pray that many more men from all walks of life will follow in their footsteps.

San Jose police have made an arrest in the kidnapping and attempted sexual assault of a 12-year-old girl.
Police are releasing few details, except to say the suspect was taken into custody Wednesday night.
The arrest comes after the girl was crossing a street Monday with her younger sister and was hit by a car. Police say the driver deliberately accelerated and hit her.
The girl's sister helped her to the sidewalk, but investigators say the driver then got out and forced her into his vehicle.
Police said the suspect drove away and tried to sexually assault the girl. She struggled, was able to get out of the car about four miles away from where the ordeal began. Police were called after she ran to a home for help.
The girl suffered what was described as severe injuries.

Kathleen McConkie Collinwood sat in her law office one afternoon earlier this year, wondering why more people weren't speaking out against a plan that would bring much of the nation's nuclear waste to Utah's western desert.
She and her brother, Jim McConkie, began brainstorming. They wanted a solution that would rally public passions against the waste proposal, and they knew they needed the help of some prominent Utahns, Democrats and Republicans alike, to muster a groundswell of opposition.
"We put together a respectable group," Jim McConkie said. Included in the citizens group are former Gov. Norm Bangerter, a Republican, and former U.S. Rep. Wayne Owens, a Democrat.
"If we join together we can stop these things," said Collinwood, the Democratic candidate for Utah's 1st Congressional District seat. "Together, we're much stronger."
That's the way Collinwood plays politics. Bold, upfront, in your face, yet willing to sit down with Republicans to find a solution.
If her GOP opponent, Jim Hansen, seems somewhat elusive about his political strategies, preferring to huddle with key players to tackle tough problems, then Collinwood would be more of a cheerleader, rallying for a common cause.
That Collinwood, a 50-year-old lawyer who has never held public office, is challenging a man who has never lost an election shows she has spunk.
"When I think of my sister, she's always moving quickly, walking fast, talking on the phone while walking down the street," says her brother, Jim. "Then she goes home, takes her batteries out, wakes up with tons of energy the next morning."
In addition to her energy on top of her full-time job, she and her husband have 10 children "she's a very affable person," adds Scott Lee, her law partner with Randle, Deamer, McConkie & Lee. "Kathleen is just a good, down-to-earth person. She's sensible and hard-working."
Collinwood was born in New York, grew up in England and returned to the United States after high school.
She learned the value of education and family at an early age. Her father, James McConkie, died when she was a toddler. Her mother raised three children while earning her doctorate at Columbia University in New York. She remarried, to an executive, and the family moved to England.
After high school, Collinwood came to Utah to attend Brigham Young University, graduating in 1971. She moved to Minnesota, where she taught high school English while raising a family. She later moved to Rochester, Minn., where she lived while attending Hamline Law School in St. Paul, Minn.
"When she was going to law school, she would drive 100 miles a day while reviewing legal principles," Jim McConkie said. "She has the highest energy level of anyone I know."
She received a law degree in 1981. And after a divorce, she moved to Utah to become a lawyer. She married Dean Collinwood, and they blended their families, raising children who now range in age from 14 to 28.
Collinwood quickly became involved in her Bountiful community, gaining the admiration of her neighbors.
"She's a very remarkable woman. I'm very impressed with her. She has a keen sense of social values," said Jim Bromley, a retired state employee who lives in her neighborhood. "Although she belongs to a different political party than I do."
Despite her popularity and a family name firmly ingrained in Utah politics, no one doubts she has an uphill battle. Not only is it hard to raise campaign funds to run against a well-entrenched incumbent, but 1st Congressional District voters, like Bromley, have been voting Republican since Hansen defeated the late Rep. Gunn McKay 20 years ago.

Nearly 100 Liverpool residents came out on Saturday to sign petitions calling for alterations to the preliminary Liverpool Central School District budget and the resignation of Superintendent Richard Johns.
The two separate petitions were made available for signatures to district residents March 19 at the American Legion Post 188 in the village. Concerned residents Sharon Yager, Julie Matson and Pat Ruf provided information to those that stopped by, and encouraged individuals to sign both petitions during the event.
"This is by no means a witch hunt," said Yager. "We just want the board [of education] to see that people have concerns, and we'd like them to reevaluate the situation."
Yager, the brains behind the petition text, has an eighth grader at Liverpool Middle School and two children that have graduated from the district. While she has been one of the more vocal residents during this year's budget season, Yager prefers to think of herself as a "co-leader" of the petition movement.
Red flags were raised for the Liverpool mom starting with the closure of Wetzel Road Elementary. It was then that she began paying closer attention to the actions of Dr. Johns and the board of education. After her numerous questions about district spending were left unanswered, and Dr. Johns stated that he should have taken more time to consider the closure of WRE in a television interview, she had had enough. She compiled the petition text and set out to collect signatures door-to-door.
"This isn't just about my child, but our children," Yager said.
Julie Matson, mother of a ninth grade daughter at the Annex, has been attending board meetings since Dr. Johns was hired in 2009, and her distaste for the superintendent has also grown.
"Sharon's been saying a lot of the same things that I've been thinking," Matson said, so she decided to get involved with the petitions and help spread information to those that may be less informed on the topic.

>Sonora / Tuolumne News, Sports, & Weather, Angels Camp, Twain Harte, Jamestown | Union Democrat
By CHRIS BATEMAN
The Stanislaus National Forest Saturday will take another crack at easing tensions between off-roaders and residents of an Arnold-area tract who have complained repeatedly about noise and dust.
At 9 a.m. forest officials will unveil an "Interim Action Plan" for the area at the Calaveras Ranger Station, on Highway 4 in Hathaway Pines.
The plan's cornerstone is banning off-highway vehicles (OHVs) from Forest Road 5N95Y, a dirt track running along the western edge of Lake Mont Pines subdivision southwest of Arnold.
But while dirt bikes, Quad Runners and the like would be prohibited, the two-mile road would remain open to street-legal vehicles.
Lake Mont residents may not be pleased.
"I'll wait until I hear all the details before I make up my mind, but I'm skeptical," said Judith Spencer, whose home is 200 feet from 5N95Y and who is an active member of CORE (Commitment to Our Recreation Environment), a community organization opposing OHV use near subdivisions.
OHV users are likely to oppose the ban for different reasons.
"We really are against any closure," said Del Albright, a member of the Hathaway Pines-based Partners in Recreation. "We're preparing comments right now."
Contention is nothing new on the Interface Recreation Trails Area, an 8,600-acre swath of Forest Service lands west of Hathaway Pines, Lake Mont and Meadowmont. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on management of the area has been pending for five years.
The action plan to be reviewed Saturday would not be a final solution. It would remain in force only until a final decision is made, perhaps months from now.
Other parts of the plan:
Road 5N95Y would be treated with Mag Chloride, dust-control chemical, and watered at least weekly.
Signs would warn that OHVs are banned on the road and that the area is residential. Violators would be cited.
New OHV routes created since recent logging operations in the Interface in will be closed and blocked off.

Robert Downey Jr. is already on his way to becoming "Father of the Year."
The "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" star recently took his six-months-pregnant wife Susan Levin on a romantic Hawaiian getaway. The couple -- who went snorkeling on the island of Kauai -- will welcome their first child together in February.
PHOTOS: Other stars who've become proud papas
The spouses met on the set of "Gothika" in 2003 and married two years later. The Oscar-nominated actor has an 18-year-old son, Indio, with first wife Deborah Falconer. Downey, 46, credits his film producer wife with helping him stay sober after years of drug and alcohol abuse.
PHOTOS: Can you guess which abs belong to Robert?
"There's no understanding for me of the bigger picture in real time in a hands-on way without her," he told Esquire in 2009. "Because it was the perfect, perfect, perfect matching of personalities and gifts."
PHOTOS: See Robert kick ass in The Avengers
Rest assured, Downey will be a hand-on father when he and Levin become parents in 2012 -- diaper duty included.
"That's just poop," the actor told E! News in October. "That's no big deal."

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Foundation For Sustainable Development, San Francisco, CA, USA
I interned with FSD last summer (2010) as a graphic designer/marketing and communications volunteer. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience working with FSD, and it could not have been possible without the enthusiastic/dedicated staff I worked alongside with. Being able to review grants gave me insight to the types of projects being proposed in our various sites, allowing me to see the breadth of FSD's global reach. Overall, I find FSD's mission and work model to be unique and effective, and hope to dedicate more of my time with the organization in the future.

Is Title IX Law Doing Harm to Men's Sports? Proportional Treatment for Women Has an Unintended Effect, Critics Charge
Dillon, Naomi, Burnett, Sara, Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL)
Byline: Naomi Dillon and Sara Burnett Daily Herald Staff Writer
Few will argue with its intent.
Enacted at a time when girls made up less than 8 percent of all high school athletes, the anti-discrimination law known as Title IX was supposed to ensure girls had the same opportunities as boys.
It was supposed to right the wrongs.
But 30 years later, critics say Title IX has mostly gotten it wrong.
In the last decade, 350 intercollegiate men's programs have been cut, according to Brad Hahn, a spokesman for U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert, a former high school wrestling coach.
The reason given for the cuts in many instances: pressure to comply with Title IX.
" (Hastert) very much supports Title IX," Hahn said. "But because of the way it's been enforced, there have been unintended consequences."
At the heart of the debate is the proportionality standard, one of three ways schools can show they are abiding by Title IX.
To establish proportionality, schools must show the ratio of girls to boys participating in sports is similar to the ratio enrolled in the school.
Critics like Mike Moyer, executive director of the National Wrestling Coaches Association, say that's virtually impossible - and takes the law too far.
For colleges to reach proportionality, Moyer said, they have had to eliminate men's programs like wrestling, swimming and track.
"And there's no reason to believe this hasn't crept into the high school community," he said.
A Daily Herald analysis of sports in 41 suburban high schools concludes that most suburban schools fail the Title IX proportionality test.
While critics of the law say those numbers are proof proportionality is unattainable, supporters say it is evidence school athletic programs still have a ways to go before reaching equality.
Those same proponents say the reason for men's sports being cut isn't Title IX but the budget decisions of individual schools. And they oppose any change in the law - though the voices calling for it are getting louder and louder.
Some call it a quota
Last year, the chairman of the federal Department of Education, at the prompting of President Bush, appointed a task force to re- evaluate Title IX. The group scheduled hearings across the nation, including one in Chicago in September.
Task force members heard from people on all sides of the debate - female athletes, men who lost scholarships because their sports were cut, parents and coaches.
The youngest speaker was 15-year-old Brandon Boschien of Huntley, who was joined at the microphone by his 11-year-old brother, Brett.
A wrestler with aspirations of competing at the college level, Brandon told the commission he worries his college choices will be limited because schools across the country are cutting wrestling programs. He has the same fear for his younger brother, a middle school swimmer.
"You see, proportionality is causing all the wrong things to happen," said Brandon, whose father is a middle school coach. "My brother and I do not want to be one of those casualties."
The National Wrestling Coaches Association doesn't want them to be, either.
In January, the organization filed a federal lawsuit accusing the Department of Education of gender bias against men in college sports.
The lawsuit is designed to "restore the law to its original intent" of providing equal opportunity based on interest, Moyer said.
"Not what it has become, which is equal participation based on enrollment," he said.
That has resulted in what critics call a quota system.
The U.S. Track Coaches Association, the U.S. Swimming Coaches Association and the U.S. Gymnastics Coaches Association all have joined the wrestlers in their lawsuit.
But this isn't a battle cut clearly along gender lines. …
