(CCB) reflect the bank's strong domestic brand recognition and sound financial profile, as demonstrated by its adequate asset quality, good profitability, and strong liquidity profile. Strong government support remains a rating factor. Offsetting these strengths are its developing credit culture, latent credit risk associated with its rapidly growing loan portfolio, and under-tested management.

Conservative MP
Born: 9 September, 1944, in Glasgow.
Died: 17 May, 2006, in London, aged 61.
ERIC Forth was one of the most assiduous, although certainly not among the most popular, MPs at Westminster.
The Conservative member for Bromley and Chislehurst knew the "rule-book" of the House of Commons better than anyone, and with a magnificent spirit of independence, which occasionally infuriated the Tory whips, would be prepared to go to enormous lengths to destroy bills with which he disagreed.
Some MPs who saw their "worthy" back-bench measures bite the dust because Forth had talked them out of existence, accused him of having a sadistic streak.
But Forth did not act out of malice or any sense of "macho-ness". If he saw a bill which he thought would be ignored if it became an act of Parliament, or which had been tabled, in his opinion, simply to express a feeling of goodwill, and for no other tangible purpose, he would gird his loins and oppose it.
His illness prevented him from attending the final Commons stages of the Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill last Friday. He had already signalled his opposition to this measure with a series of long speeches designed to wreck it or at least to delay its passage through Parliament.
Forth served as a minister under Margaret Thatcher and John Major, but he was best known as a tireless back-bencher whose forensic knowledge of parliamentary procedure put him in a class of his own.
His political pendulum swung from being a Communist (as a schoolboy), to a Tory (by the time he was 18), and to a hard-headed right-wing Conservative (at Westminster).
He was by no means a "moderniser" and his political stance as a Tory was about as far from the David Cameron vision of Conservatism as it was possible to be.
Instead, he was a fervent backer of David Davis, now the shadow home secretary, in the party's recent leadership contest.
Forth was reported to have been furious that Mr Davis did not challenge Michael Howard for the leadership of the Conservative party in 2003. As a result, Mr Howard was elected unopposed, largely because Tory strong men dissuaded any potential challengers, so the party could avoid an acrimonious leadership battle.
He has variously been described by commentators as "the Boris Karloff of Westminster", of bearing "the grin of a rattlesnake" and as "so right-wing that it is barely possible to see him over the horizon".
But he accepted all these brickbats with a shrug of his shoulders, firmly believing that he was performing a service in attempting to stem the flow of "worthless" legislation from Westminster.
He regularly caused the hackles to rise among left-wingers. Once, during a debate on the Sharpeville Six, sentenced to death for the 1984 mob killing of a councillor in South Africa, he inquired: "Is this really any of our business?"
He protested about the BBC spending money on a Nelson Mandela concert in 1988, and insisted that "those who want the arts and who support them should pay for them themselves".
Forth also spoke out against spending vast sums of money on combating Aids, which he said was "largely self-inflicted". He was also something of a dandy, renowned for his striking ties, and his waistcoats, worn with a watch-chain.
Eric Forth was born on 9 September, 1944 in Glasgow. He was educated at Jordanhill College School and the University of Glasgow, where he was awarded a master's degree in politics and economics.
He was elected as a councillor on the Brentwood Urban District Council, serving from 1968 to 1972, and unsuccessfully contested the parliamentary seat of Barking in the February and October elections of 1974.
Forth was secretary of the Llandeilo Conservative Association 1975-7, and chairman of the Ross-on-Wye Conservative Political Committee from 1978-9.
He was elected to the European Parliament for Birmingham North in 1979 and remained there until 1984.
Forth was elected MP for Mid-Worcestershire in 1983, where he served until 1997, on becoming MP for Bromley and Chislehurst, which he represented until his death. He held this seat at the last general election with a majority of 13,342.
In the late 1980s, Forth served as consumer affairs minister, that appointment being described by one commentator at the time as "something of a joke". In the John Major years he served as an education minister.
When the Tories went into opposition in 1997, Forth was appointed shadow leader of the Commons.
He leaves a widow, Carroll, two daughters and one stepson.

The opportunity for unreviewed publication leads me to ruminate a bit on history important to medicine as a whole and to pediatrics in particular. I refer to a seminal event in medical history: the recognition of dehydration as an important disturbance, and the prescription of fluid therapy as a corrective. Not only is it good to be reminded of these events, but I believe that there is a mystery hidden in the account as we know it, about which I wish to speculate.
First is the story as we know it, from James Gamble's paper in 19531 and other medical historians.2-3 W. B. O'Shaughnessy, then working in London, in December 1831 published in the Lancet the results of clinical analyses of serum and stool water from patients with cholera, a disease seen in epidemic form that year for the first time in the British Isles.4 He noted that the water content of the serum was sharply reduced and that the two fluids had similar concentrations of inorganic ions. He then hypothesized that replacing the water and salts would lead to recovery from a disease in which the mortality rate was fearful (probably 25% to 50% among London's poor).

Patients with eczema tend to start itching before they see a rash, rather than the other way around, leading some to call it "the itch that rashes."
So what is this invisible agent that causes the itch?
Herbert B. Allen has been scratching his head over that one for years, but recently the Drexel University dermatologist achieved a measure of intellectual relief.
He and a team of colleagues at Drexel's College of Medicine report that the culprit is a slime-like substance called biofilm, produced by Staphylococcus bacteria on the skin.
The biofilm blocks sweat ducts, which in turn activates an immune response that leads to itching and inflammation, the team reported in the journal JAMA Dermatology.

Session organizers: Britt Denis and Ellen Janssens (University of Antwerp)
Technologies @ home: uses, practices and negotiation of new technologies in nineteenth-century urban homes
Of particular interest to the organizers of this session is research into the plurality and fluidity of everyday practices and the creative behavior of the users of new home technologies. Foregrounding the 'co-construction' of nineteenth-century home technologies – the networked interplay between the market, households, civil society and the state – is this session's main goal.
The history of home technologies still conjures images of revolutions and heroics. A lot of research has drawn attention to the new machines and techniques that made the 'Industrial Revolution' possible, often written from the perspective of the innovative producers. Instead it could be argued that precisely the flood of new technologies entering the home was truly revolutionary.
In glossing over the momentous feats of the men that made industrial society (gender-bias intended!), work on the 'long' nineteenth-century has most often ended up in narratives being constructed in a linear, almost teleological vein. New technologies entering urban homes were determined to succeed due to their supposedly superior intrinsic qualities, their capacity to improve living conditions, and so on. Yet, technologies never operate in such one-dimensional way: they are being used in sometimes unintended and unforeseen fashion; they create new interactions and impact upon people's practices, routines and habits of everyday live; and, last but not least, they generate political discourse, contestation and action.
To nuance the impact of new technologies on the home and its inhabitants, we welcome papers studying the myriad of ways through which these were made compatible with the day-to-day practice and their effect on resource use, household relations and so on. We also hope to include papers covering the divergences that arose through home technologies, between social groups, but also within the confines of the home. Despite their rapid spread across traditional class boundaries, the introduction of new home technologies tended to deepen social inequalities, since the majority of the lower ranks were being denied access to them. Moreover, the reinforcement of such social divergences around home technologies was supported by the changing requirements on what was considered a respectable and comfortable urban home, which can also be addressed.
Please send abstracts (500 words), including title, name, affiliation and contact details to email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com before May 13th, 2013. Accepted papers will be sent, together with this session proposal, to the organizers of the European Social Science History Conference.
The organizers hope to include this session in the "Material and consumer culture" network, and aim to reach out to the "Technology" and "Health and environment" networks as well.

FirstEnergy Worker Wins Federal Settlement from Local Electrical Worker Union
Union officials threatened worker to join union or lose her job
Reading, PA (December 5, 2013) – A FirstEnergy Corp. worker has won a federal settlement from a local union after she filed a charge against the union with free legal assistance from National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys.
The settlement comes after Deborah Adie of Orwigsburg filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). In the charge, Adie stated that International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 777 union officials demanded she join the union or she would lose her job.
Under federal law, no worker can be forced to formally join a labor union. However, because Pennsylvania is not a Right to Work state, workers can be forced, as a condition of employment, to pay certain union fees to keep their job. IBEW Local 777 union officials never informed Adie of her right to refrain from full-dues-paying union membership, a right upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in the Right to Work Foundation-won Communications Workers v. Beck case.
In mid-March, Adie wrote a letter to the union hierarchy in which she resigned her union membership and objected to paying full union dues. Despite her request, union officials refused to acknowledge her resignation, and they continued to collect full union dues from her paychecks.
In April, Adie was told by a union official that instead of her March resignation letter, she needed to fill out a union form in order to resign her membership. Because she failed to turn in the specific union form, she was notified that the union would not recognize her March resignation letter and would continue to take full union dues from her paychecks.
Under the terms of the settlement, union officials are required to return all illegally-seized union fees taken from Adie's paycheck and to post a notice in the workplace notifying workers of their right to refrain from formal, full-dues-paying union membership.
"No worker should ever be forced to join or pay dues to an unwanted union just to get or keep a job," said Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "This case underscores why Pennsylvania needs to pass a Right to Work law making union membership and dues payments completely voluntary."
Twenty-four states have Right to Work protections for employees. Public polling shows that nearly 80 percent of Americans and union members support the Right to Work principle of voluntary unionism.

I would like to meet you in person one of these years....
I would be very happy to meet with you. However, I am having some medical problems right now. The worst one is a very sore shoulder that is probably a torn rotater cuff. I had an MRI done yesterday and will see the doctor next week. It will probably require surgery.
I will let you know when I am better and we can arrange a meeting.
My shoulder made an almost magical recovery and most of the pain just went away. Then I saw my orthopedist Friday and he told me that the MRI showed a small tear in the rotator cuff. Then he said that if I don't have pain it is probably better not to operate. So unless it gets worse again, I think I am in the clear.
I don't know about Dell. I have bought a small position in Continental Materials (CUO).
I am also toying with the idea of buying Southwest Airlines (LUV) but I have not done it yet. I have owned both of these names before at various times and always made money on them.
I am ready to arrange a meeting with you. How do you want to do it? Should I come to your place or do you want to come to my place or meet at a neutral site. Let me know if you want my email address or phone number. I guess that you still have my home address since you sent fudge to me. Thanks.

Has anyone ordered any bulk ammo from Cabela's? How was it?

February 22, 2009, 11:53 PM
years ago i ordered a 300 round batch of 9mm. seemed to work just fine.
February 22, 2009, 11:57 PM
I ordered 200 rnds of 500 S&W. It hasn't been shipped yet but to be fair, it's only been 5 weeks...
February 23, 2009, 12:17 AM
I've considered buying their bulk ammo several times. I am also curious.
February 23, 2009, 12:18 AM
i have tried, but they have been on back order for a looooooong time.
February 23, 2009, 12:22 AM
Just be sure of the brand. A lot of their bulk ammo is Wolf. Wolf isn't bad, per se, but it's not high-end, either. If they don't say what brand it is, assume it's Wolf.
This is also why there have been a lot of backorders: Wolf had some distribution problems for a few months, and couldn't get their ammo in-country. Now the supply lines are flowing again.
February 23, 2009, 12:23 AM
I had some on order for a couple of months before they finally cancelled the order themselves. Prices seem reasonable for some of it, if you can get your hands on some.
February 23, 2009, 01:07 AM
I wondered what was up with wolf, didn't they also eliminate their familiar line and bring out a new "military classic" line to replace it?
February 23, 2009, 01:22 AM
I remember when they still sold bulk surplus .30-06 a few years ago. Was Korean stuff marked "PS" (non-corrosive). 400 rnds for 100 bucks. Unfortunetly I only bought 1. If I had known they were going to stop selling it, I would have bought more.
February 23, 2009, 03:29 AM
Bulk Wolf .308 works well through guns like my Saiga 308, which is a tank.
However, if you have a gun that has more precise machinery, then there have been reported problems with cycling.
February 23, 2009, 09:19 AM
I use wolf in my M1A and my gas piston AR never had a problem. I have gotten several things of bulk ammo from cabela's recently and it's all been just fine. The nice thing is that bulk ammo comes in some nice waterproof plastic containers that are great for my gun cleaning supplies or important paperwork.
February 23, 2009, 10:01 AM
Have you noticed that they seem to sell their bulk ammo in lots of 300, 600, and 1200? I think this is because shooters' minds are trained to think of ammo in lots of 20, 50, 500 and 1000 and don't automatically come up with price comparisons easily with the lot prices listed for the 300 and 600 lots.
It is pretty easy when the bulk amounts are in 500's to make comparisons with locally available boxes of 50. If you take the time to do the division correctly, the Cabela's stuff is often not really that great a deal. They are just hoping you don't take the time to really figure it out the per shot price.
As a side note, I have noticed that at some of the big box sporting goods stores the per shot bulk prices are often actually higher that the small box prices. This has been expecially true with some of the .223 ammo lately. I could buy it cheaper in the 20 box packaging that in the 50 box packaging (same brand).
February 23, 2009, 10:10 AM
I ordered 1000rds of .223 back in December and they did not have it in stock until february of this year. I understand that it is hard to get your hands on certain things with the new administration and the likely AWB coming our way, but waiting nearly 3 months for an order of ammunition is pretty ridiculous. The price was right, but it took wayy too long.

Ok thanks for replys the ammo I am thinking of buying is handgun ammo .45ACP. They have 2 kinds Ultamax and Remington bulk ammo.
February 23, 2009, 10:20 AM
I have some Cabella's bulk 45ACP - shoots just fine. Mixed brass markings, but then it's re-manufactured ammo......
February 23, 2009, 10:29 AM
I bought two tin of Wolf 7.62 HP about three months ago. First they e-mailed me that the order was going to be delayed three weeks. Then six weeks. Then order was cancelled. Then rain check credit. From the time I ordered the tins until I received them, it took about four weeks. It's kinda like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing... 1280 rounds, $287 delivered. I'm happy. Me like Wolf....

I have bought 5 lots of bulk ammo over the last 4 months from Cabela's. One 1000 round order for Wolf 45. ACP and 4 x 2100 round orders of 22lr. The .45 ACP took about 6 weeks to show up. The 22lr was in stock and arrived for in-store pickup within a week. As already mentioned the Wolf ammo isn't the highest quality but the price is good. I compared prices with Ammunitiontogo.com. Ammotgo was lower but after adding the cost of freight it was roughly the same for the 22. Don't remember cost comparison for the 45 ACP. Cabela's also includes a "free" dry box for every bulk ammo order.
P.S. the 22lr is Federal.

A lot of their bulk pistol ammo is reloads at the same price that a lot of other ammo dealers sell for new ammo. Also someone correct me if I'm wrong but some of the pistol ammo is manufactured by American ammo company(with the headstamp A-merc) and their reputation is less than stellar.

Educator Benjamin Mays said, "It isn't how long one lives, but how well. Jesus died at 33; Joan of Arc at 19; Byron and Burns at 33; Marlowe at 29 – and Martin Luther King Jr. at 39."
Last Saturday I attended the homegoing services of Cetorie Morris, an 18 year old THS senior student; classmate of my son and a friend to my daughter. During the service, many of his peers and cousins talked about his beautiful smile, his loyalty and how he loved to hug.
His pastor, the Rev. Willie Wilson, talked about the young man's love of people, church and football. He said, "Cetorie was a very loving and caring person and had a sincere heart. He loved his little brothers and family." Wilson's message to the young and old was entitled, "Don't be blindsided – It is appointed unto man to die."
Cetorie's English teacher, Ms. April Friar, said, "Philosopher and writer John Locke said, 'There is frequently more to learn from the unexpected questions of a child than the discourses of men.'" She commented on his thirst for knowledge. He was always asking questions in and outside of her classroom. On Friday, a few hours before his death – the final words that she heard from him: "Ms. Friar, do you love me?" She answered, "Of course, I love you, Cetorie."
He asked this question several times. She didn't know that would be the last time she would see this bright and inquisitive student alive.
Looking at that casket, I saw the face of my children, mother, sisters, brothers, friends, myself, etc. I realized that at any given moment – it very easily could have been any of us. We just don't know when, nor do we know who – young or old – will be the next to depart.
As much as we would like to orchestrate long, fruitful, productive lives, it is not we who hold our future. We can't predict life. You never know when the final moment will come.
I thought about my cousin, Crystal, who lives in Chicago, singing a powerful song entitled, "My Times are in His Hand." The words began to ring in my spirit, "If I were in control of my life, I think (I know) that I would have worked things out differently, there would be no hurt, no pain, no disappointments.
"Of these things, my life would be free – but that just goes to show, how little I know. God controls my life and I'm learning each and every day to trust Him, come what may … all of the good, all of the bad, all of the hurt, all of the pain. My times are in the His hands."
As I sat there in that auditorium, crying along with my children and others, I asked myself, "What am I doing with my 'times'? What things should I work out differently while I have a chance? Have I taught my children the right set of values of loving and being kind to others regardless of color? Have I lived a life that is pleasing in His sight? Do I need to mend relationships?"
My pastor, Hayes Long, often says in his sermons that there are other days besides Christmas and Thanksgiving that one should be a blessing to others. During this season of giving and sharing, have I helped my fellowman without thought or throughout the year? Do I need to give more? Have I been selfish?
I agree with Dr. Mays – it isn't how long one lives, but how well one lives during his time on earth. Friends, what are you doing with your "times"? Are you giving? Do you love? Are you doing the best you can with your life? Do you need to work things out differently in your life while you can? Will you have an impact on peoples' lives as 18 year old Cetorie did? You be the judge.

It's hard to believe that you can make something so delicious with only 3 store bought ingredients. But it's absolutely true with this easy and quick crockpot meal. This buffalo chicken assembles in a matter of minutes and you don't even have to remember to thaw frozen chicken!
This is another one of those super versatile recipes like the Crockpot Salsa Chicken. We ate this buffalo chicken on sandwich buns but you could use if for buffalo chicken nachos, buffalo chicken quesadillas, buffalo chicken salads and so much more. Be sure to save this recipe, you'll find so many great meal options with it.
It is buffalo chicken after all so it will be quite spicy. If you have young ones, you may want to cut the heat with a bit of cream cheese to mellow it.
Crockpot Buffalo Chicken
from My Kitchen Apron
3 – 5 lbs frozen skinless, boneless chicken breasts
12oz bottle Franks Red Hot Wings buffalo sauce
1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix
1. Place frozen chicken breasts into crockpot, pour buffalo sauce over chicken. Sprinkle ranch mix over top. Cover with lid and cook on low for about 5 hours.
2. Remove chicken to a cutting board. Do not discard sauce! Shred the chicken with two forks. The chicken should just fall apart. Place shredded chicken back into sauce still in crockpot. Stir to coat chicken.
3. Continue cooking shredded buffalo chicken in crockpot on low for about another hour or until chicken absorbs most of the sauce. Enjoy!

Matthew Sofka, who was arrested at a post-wedding brawl Sunday night, has posted bail and plans to fight charges that he assaulted a Philadelphia police officer and resisted arrest.
His attorney, Fortunato Perri Jr., said the melee was already under way when Sofka, 26, of Westfield, N.J., arrived at the Sheraton Society Hill hotel, where his family was staying for the weekend of his brother's wedding. "There was absolute chaos going on from a prior incident," Perri said Tuesday.
The brawl, which has been viewed nearly 900,000 times on YouTube, involved 50 to 100 people. It was around 1:45 a.m. - last call - and guests from another wedding party had been at the bar for a couple of hours, according to Max Schultz, 15, a hotel guest who video-recorded the altercation from several floors up.

Local Church Welcomes LGBT Community
By AJ Trager
Originally printed 6/12/2014 (Issue 2224 - Between The Lines News)
TROY - Central Woodward Christian Church (CWCC) will host Welcoming Diversity, a one-night event on June 21 showcasing two photography exhibits by Family Diversity Projects as well as a performance by The Detroit Together Men's Chorus.
CWCC seeks to be a religious voice of inclusion and support for diversity. Associate Pastor Rick Modglin-Green has been with CWCC for the last three years and says, as a gay man, he received a very warm welcome from the church.
"CWCC has had LGBT members in the past and the previous pastor was very open to the LGBT community," Modglin-Green said.
Modgin-Green and the CWCC chose to host an LGBT event because many places of worship struggle to include LGBT persons of faith in the life of the church.
"Unfortunately, the voice that we hear often from the church isn't a positive one," Modgin-Green said. "We wanted to be a voice that is positive and inclusive. We want to demonstrate that to the LGBT community and the community at large."
The exhibit comes to CWCC by way of Family Diversity Projects, a non-profit organization devoted to educating the public about issues relating to the full range of diversity.
Two of seven award-winning photo exhibitions that FDP has on national and international tour include "We Have Faith," showcasing LGBT clergy and people of faith speaking out to help open minds and hearts, and "Love Makes A Family," which features diverse families.
Early childhood educator and photographer Gigi Kaeser captured the exhibit photography and Peggy Gillespe the director of Family Diversity Projects provided the interview material strung up next to each of the individual photographs.
Modgin-Green has been with his partner for 19 years and really wants to see more LGBT representation in places of faith.
"Just having a voice to the LGBT community and the community at large will help. Not everyone is represented by those who seem to be the ones who speak out the most."
The event is free to the public, but CWCC will be accepting donations that will be given to the Ruth Ellis Center. Doors open at 6 p.m. to allow attendees to view the artwork. The Detroit Together Men's Chorus performs at 7 p.m. Central Woodward Christian Church is located at 3955 W. Big Beaver Road.For more information on the event visit http://centralwoodward.org/news/2014/5/21/welcoming-diversity-concert-and-photo-exhibit.html

Sandblast artists will carve out riverboat replica
by Jane McClure
Contributing writer
The Duvall Arts Commission is finalizing details for Sandblast '98, a three-day river and arts festival to be held July 24-26 at the McCormick Park Sandbar and the King County Snoqualmie Valley Trail. "This year's Sandblast is going to be more active and fun than ever," said Sunny Ruthchild, who first organized the festival four years ago. "There will be three major opportunities for community-involved art--sand sculpture, music and dance, and fine arts and crafts--all of which will take place along the river."
Sandblast '98 will once again involve the building of a giant sand sculpture by festival-goers under the guidance of professional sand artist Kali Bradford. This year's project will be construction of a replica of the riverboat Black Prince, which delivered goods to residents along the Snoqualmie River before there were roads or trains.
Music will be provided by File Gumbo, a Cajun Zydeco band, Les Femmes d'Enfer, an all-woman Cajun band and Bang Talk, a local drum group. Afro-jazz dance workshops will be led by Cris Daigre, and tap and jazz workshops will feature the local TJ Dance group. These community dance workshops are free and a community performance is scheduled for Sunday.
New this year is an art walk along the river trail designed to showcase the work of local artists and artisans. Applications to become an art walk exhibitor will be accepted until June 25. "I encourage everyone to participate and enjoy the event," Ruthchild said. "Also, we're still looking for volunteers to do a variety of things." For volunteer or art walk information, call Ruthchild at Gardens and Sunspaces Gallery, 425-788-9844.

The Young Men's Christian Association was set up as a means of supporting the well-being and moral welfare of young men working in London. The draper George Williams started a Bible study and prayer group for some of his fellow workers. He was concerned that there were not enough healthy leisure occupations available to this group, and too many were resorting in consequence to taverns and even brothels. His group was so successful that similar groups were soon established in other major cities, as well as across London. Within a year, it was expanding into other areas, offering public lectures and educational courses, creating places for reading and refreshments, and later also to holiday camps. Just over a decade after it was first …

Today: Cold rain developing midday. 40-45. | Tonight: Rain. 40-45. | Tomorrow: Mostly cloudy. 55-60. | Get Express Forecast by E-mail
A daily assessment of the potential for *accumulating* snow for the next week on a 0-10 scale. More info
Today (Tuesday): Not the best of days, but remind yourself that we need the rain! Cloudy with precipitation developing by late morning or early afternoon, which could be mixed with sleet or even some stray snowflakes (especially northwest of the District) before quickly transitioning and then staying all rain. Winds pick up in the afternoon to 15-20 mph out of the east with higher gusts, making it feel quite raw unfortunately. Highs in the low-to-mid 40s should be reached by late afternoon. Confidence: Medium-High
Tonight: Rain, possibly heavy at times during the evening rush hour toward midnight. It should then taper off during the overnight AM hours. Winds are still irksome in the evening toward midnight with 15-20 mph frequently and higher gusts, but then calming down gradually after midnight. The total precipitation expectation is between .75" and 1.25" with the heaviest amounts more likely north and west of the city. Temperatures hold steady in the low-to-mid 40s. Confidence: Medium-High
For related traffic news, check out Dr. Gridlock. Keep reading for the forecast through the weekend...
Tomorrow (Wednesday): Mostly cloudy with some scattered showers still possible, but the big story will be temperatures pushing up into the mid-to-upper 50s with some 60-degree readings possible. Winds come from the west and southwest at 5-10 mph with some higher gusts. Confidence: Medium-High
Tomorrow night: Colder air behind the storm system finally works into the area with temperatures falling into the mid-to-upper 30s under partly to mostly cloudy skies. Some unsettled weather associated with the upper level low part of the storm could trigger a few rain or snow showers. Let's give it a 30% chance for now. Confidence: Low-Medium
Thursday still holds the clouds and maybe a chance of a shower or flurry, especially in the morning. Highs in the upper 40s to low 50s with light winds. Thursday night turns even colder under partly cloudy skies with lows in the upper 20s in the outer suburbs to the low and middle 30s in the city. Confidence: Medium
Friday and the weekend are still set to experience a late-season cold outbreak with partly cloudy conditions. Highs range mainly through the low-and-mid 40s with lows in the 20s to low 30s. I wouldn't be surprised to find some teens in the outer suburbs, especially to the west and north. As of right now, Sunday looks to be the coldest day with highs near 40 or into the very low 40s (we should normally be in the low 50s by this point in early March). Confidence: Medium

CBNNews.com - GAZA STRIP - One year after a military coup by Hamas, 1.5 million Palestinians in Gaza favor Hamas rule over Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party.
"The fact that Hamas is still in power one year after the 'coup' speaks for itself," writes Jerusalem Post Palestinian Affairs correspondent Khaled Abu Toameh.
While living conditions in the Strip deteriorated under Hamas rule, the residents blame Israel and the US for their problems.
"The international sanctions have, ironically, strengthened Hamas," one Palestinian political analyst in Gaza City said.
"The siege also gave Hamas a good excuse not to do anything and to continue blaming the Israelis and Americans for the disastrous situation in the Gaza Strip," he said.
Some residents attribute the 95 percent drop in crime, a figure provided by Hamas-affiliated organizations, to the terror group's tough measures against drug dealers and others.
"We feel safer walking on the street under Hamas," university student Anwar Najjar said. "[There are] no more gangsters, no more kidnappings, no more thefts," he said.
"We've reached a situation in which drivers are afraid to drive through a red light," one journalist said.
"Most people here are happy that the Fatah security forces are gone because they were very corrupt and many of their commanders were acting like mafia leaders," he said.
"They are also happy that all the Fatah gangsters who used to roam the streets and intimidate the people have disappeared. No one [outside of Hamas forces] dares to carry a gun in public," he said.
Toameh points out that the toll in human lives has been high. In the internecine fighting between the two factions, 450 Palestinians have been killed and 1,800 injured.
Since Hamas took over, 75 percent of the population is unemployed, 3,900 factories went out of business, hotels and restaurants have fired some 500 employees and about 1,500 fishermen can't work under the restrictions Hamas placed on them.
International organizations that employed thousands have left the Strip, and human rights organizations claim that 85 percent of the population relies on handouts.
Medical services have also deteriorated under Hamas rule, resulting in the premature deaths of nearly 200 people.
Hamas, which blames Israel for the problems, says it is stronger than ever and the people appear to agree.
"As long as the Palestinians don't see a better alternative to Hamas, they will continue to support the movement," a Gaza City editor said. "The only way to get ride of Hamas is to offer the Palestinians a better alternative," he said.
"Many Palestinians still don't trust Fatah because of its failure to reform itself and remove all the corrupt leaders," he said.

Rain might relieve the unrelenting heat wave residents have had to endure since Thursday.
Compared with the 100-degree days of the past four days, today should feel practically balmy a high of 83 degrees and a chance of afternoon and evening showers, according to the National Weather Service.
The temperature at Newark Liberty International Airport climbed to 108 degrees on Friday, its highest reading in recorded history, while thermometers read 105 in Harrison, and 103 in Kearny and Jersey City.
Roughly 100 PSE&G customers across the state were still without power yesterday, a spokeswoman for the utility company said.
To conserve energy Friday, the company implemented rolling blackouts in Downtown Jersey City for about an hour.
The 37-unit building at 28-30 Sherman Place in Jersey City Heights lost power from roughly 10 p.m. Friday to 1:30 p.m. Saturday, residents and the building superintendent said yesterday.
One resident, who stayed with neighbors while the lights were out, said her 9-year-old cocker spaniel died from heat stroke during the outage.
The resident said she left water for her four dogs but when she returned home at about 10:15 a.m. Saturday, she found the cocker spaniel passed out on the floor.
"It is a big loss. I am trying not to think about it," she said. "He was a beautiful dog."
Jose Vega, the building superintendent, said that electricity was restored when PSE&G reset the transformer outside the building that supplies power to roughly 14 houses on Sherman Place.
Jeff Welz, public safety director for Weehawken, said the town's Volunteer First Aid Squad responded to 24 calls within a 48-hour period starting at 8 a.m. Friday, eight of which were heat related.
On Friday, Jersey City Medical Center treated two people for heat stroke and eight had respiratory problems caused by the heat, spokesman Mark Rabson said.

Steve Jobs riffs on the Library of Congress, education and 'bicycle for our mind'
From Michael Lawrence Films' Memory & Imagination: New Pathways to the Library of Congress, we see an early NeXT Steve Jobs talking about superficially disparate things: the importance of libraries, how video games might change education and how the personal computer, one of his more famous analogies, is like a bicycle for the mind. Watch the clip after the break.
I don't know about your city of municipality, but libraries here are still very busy, vibrant places and many, many people are there for more than the free wifi.
My wife and I have instilled a love of books into our kids, and we give to our libraries, as well as NPR and PBS (the library's broadcast complement). Get out and enjoy your local library today…

Catalogue entry
Norman Adams 1927-2005
T00923 The Whole (The Dream I) 1964
Inscribed 'NA. 64' b.r. and 'The Whole/The Dream (1.)/N Adams 1964' on back.
Canvas, 34 x 36 (86.4 x 91.4).
Chantrey Purchase from the artist 1967.
Exh: Roland, Browse and Delbanco, February–March 1966 (48d); R.A., 1967 (967).
The artist wrote (13 April 1968): 'It is one of a set of six paintings that were inspired by the opening chapters of St John's Gospel. Ideally the set should not have been broken up as they were conceived as a "whole" – hence the title I hope that one day the six paintings will be hung together – they should hang in this order –
The Light
The Dream I
The Life
The Dream II
The Making
The Word
There is no rigid symbolism involved. The images in some of the paintings came directly out of studies made in the Outer-Hebrides, made during the summer of 1964. Studies of islands, rocks, sea and sky. Most of my paintings are the result of a Christian attitude, but I rarely use direct Christian symbolism (or any other kind of symbolism come to that) these days.'
Another of the series, 'The Light', is in the possession of the Carlisle City Art Gallery; the rest still belong to the artist. All were shown at Roland, Browse and Delbanco (see above), nos. 48, a-f. An appreciation of the artist's work of this period is found in the introduction to the catalogue by Peter Bird.
Published in The Tate Gallery Report 1967–1968, London 1968.

ONA 2012: Entrepreneuring 4.0 - Video
Sept. 20, 2012: J-Lab for the fourth year in a row put on a pre-convention workshop at the Online News Association conference, bringing together experts on specific challenges confronting entrepreneurial news startups. This half-day workshop was produced by J-Lab and funded by the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation. View the workshop agenda.
See a recap of the event from reporter Anna-Lysa Gayle:
Q & A - J-Lab's News Entrepreneuring 4.0 from Online News Association on Vimeo.
The Art of the Close – Journalists are great at producing content and covering stories. But ask them to sell an ad and they can't close the deal. But more and more news entrepreneurs are developing strategies and getting coaching in how to do it.
Speakers/Report Authors: Howard Owens, The Batavian; Susan Mernit, Oakland Local; Ben Ilfeld, COO of Sacramento Press and Founder of AdGlue
J-Lab at ONA2012: Entrepreneuring 4.0 - The Art of the Close from J-Lab on Vimeo.
Engaging Audiences – Just because you build it doesn't mean people will come. A new J-Lab/McCormick Foundation survey finds that online news startups can use social media tools to distribute content, market their sites and track users. But most say they cannot lasso data to track whether they are turning users into supporters who will help their sites survive. This discussion looks at the four strata of engagement and successful engagement strategies.
Speakers/Report Authors: Jan Schaffer, J-Lab Director; Erin Polgreen, Symbolia comics journalism entrepreneur; Gaby Brink, Founder and Executive Creative Director, Tomorrow Partners, and Creator of Sparkwi.se

Medicare Part D: Another Year, Another Huge Price Increase
I signed up for Medicare last month. In addition to standard Medicare, I added Part D, the prescription drug benefit. My 2013 costs, if they had covered the entire year, would have come to $529 for insurance and $330 for prescription copays.
Today's mail brought the rates for 2014. The insurance premium has increased to $650, or by about 23 percent. Copays have also increased, to $616, or by nearly 87 percent. The total increase — assuming I won't need any additional medications — comes to 47 percent.
I was not happy when President Bush proposed and AARP supported Medicare Part D, the prescription drug benefit. The idea of insuring seniors' drugs was good. The resulting law, which specifically forbids the federal government from negotiating prices with pharmaceutical companies, was insane.

Winery website: www.baronsv.com
Barons V is a small winery located in the "Warehouse District" in Woodenville Washington – it hasn't been around too long and has already been generating a great deal of buzz amongst Seattle-area wine lovers. Its winemaker, Matt Loso, is no stranger to making wines that please the palate – he was the founder of the famous Matthews Estate Winery a number of years ago.
This bottle of vino uses grapes that are actually sourced from Napa valley and partially aged in concrete to create a very nice texture to the wine.
Technical Data:
- Vineyards: Spring Mountain
- Appellation: 100% Napa Valley
- Grape Varieties: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
- Average Vine Age: 6 years
- Yields: 2.8 Tons /Acre
- Harvest dates: October 1st, 2011
- Barrel Type: 50% Stainless Steel & 50% French Oak
- Barrel Age: 1 year old
- Barrel Maker: Mixed
- Time in Barrel & Concrete: 4 Months
- Fining: Bentonite Clay
- Filtration: Sterile Filtration
- Alcohol (ethanol): 13.95 % by volume
- pH: 3.49
- Titratable Acidity: 5.8 g/L
- Free Sulfur Dioxide: 25 parts per million at bottling
- Total Production: 180 – 750mL x 12 cases
- Price: $22.00 / 750mL bottle
Nose: Fresh shell fish, a hint of grapefruit, kiwi, lemon zest and river stone.
Taste: A very clean-tasting Sauvignon Blanc that doesn't have the typical "grassified" taste to it – sure there's a hint of that but it's not killing the wine at all. Nice fruit mid palate and finish make this a very good Sauvignon Blanc that pleases the palate and would go great with all kinds of shellfish or even poultry.

As of Thursday, the Kansas City Royals had the youngest opening-day roster in Major League Baseball, with an average age of 27 years and 155 days, according to Stats L.L.C. The Houston Astros were the youngest in the National League, at 27 years and 301 days. Those baby 'Stros were closely followed by the Atlanta Braves: 28 years and 99 days.
The oldest MLB roster? That would be those New York Yankees (31 and 222 days) - and that's not even counting Andy Pettitte, who will be 40 in June. The Bronx Bombers already feature methuselahs the likes of Raul Ibanez (also 40 in June) and Mariano Rivera (42 last November). And Derek Jeter is fast approaching 38, while Alex Rodriguez will be 37, both also in June. Not quite yet the over-the-hill gang, we suspect.

Local Premiere of "Dislecksia: The Movie"
Free Friday Showing At Santa Barbara High School
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Can't read, can't write, won't amount to anything. That was the tragic, old way of treating people with dyslexia. But the release of Harvey Hubbell V's new film is expected to slam that chapter shut, and celebrate people with learning differences.
"Dislecksia: The Movie" is based on the Hubbell's personal account, growing up as a dyslexic, before people had ever heard the word.
The hereditary learning difference impacts one in five people, including Winston Churchill, Charles Schwab and Santa Barbara resident Christine Feldman. "I don't see letters. Letters will appear and disappear. As easy as "county" and "country,"' said Feldman. "Those are very similar but the letters will fade in and out and I won't be able to tell what it is."
"Dislecksia: The Movie" stars Billy Bob Thornton and celebrates the strengths of people with dyslexia -- such as leadership qualities, gift of gab, sports abilities -- not their weaknesses.
"I love this movie! It's a lot of fun," said Cherie Rae, director of The Dyslexia Project in the Santa Barbara Unified School District. "He (Hubbell) does it in a light and informative way. It will get our community talking and understanding what dyslexia is."
The film premieres in Santa Barbara, for free, Friday night at 7:00 pm at Santa Barbara High School.

SPARKcon: Art, music, and success with open source process | Opensource.com
SPARKcon: Art, music, and success with open source process
Process over content. Aly Khalifa from Gamil Design and Designbox used this mantra to instill open source roots at SPARKcon—an annual event that showcases, celebrates, and influences the creative momentum naturally found in North Carolina's Triangle region.
"I think at first it was hard for people to understand—it was hard for us to describe. Sometimes it was embarrassing—this commitment to process over content," said Khalifa. "Open source has been great for us--the idea that the community decides ultimately what the content is that gets generated. That's what we've been dedicated to, that same spirit. Now because there's other people doing it in different strata, it's been great. People are beginning to understand that we're dedicated towards process."
Beyond process, there's collaboration and cross-pollination. By allowing people with different interests and expertise to plan the individual content areas (they call them SPARKs), something bigger is created.
"SPARKcon is definitely a bit on the open source platform because it allows us to bring in folks with smaller expertise to create something much bigger than we could, by programming or planning it all ourselves," said Sara Powers from the Visual Arts Exchange.
Do you see an opportunity to bring an open source process to something you work on or a project you're passionate about? It could be related to school or work, business or personal. Maybe it's something creative like SPARKcon. Or maybe its something in your community that can empower the organizers to improve an event the open source way.

I can attest to the open source process, having recently used this methodology for Innovate Raleigh. It creates collaboration and transparency -- and it's fun because everyone gets to participate. Sparkcon has been a great addition to Raleigh. Another open source success story!

Hi cbeauty,
I've been following primal eating and exercise since early July, and I have some very similar issues that you do...can any senior members offer some suggestions or insights? Thanks!
My blood sugar levels are fantastic now that I have gone primal, but I have no endurance and need to force myself to exercise. What is wrong with me? I was very insulin resistant, and eating a vegetarian diet with plenty fresh veggies and fruits with nuts and some fish. I experienced horrible blood sugar drops. I've been primal since the first part of June 2012, but I'm still feeling fatigued. I eat between 40 to 80 grams of carbs a day and don't want to go higher because of the misery I was in before from fruit and honey blood sugar spikes.
I follow the Smarter Science of Slim exercise guidelines and enjoy casual tennis, bicycling, walking, etc. I have studied hormonal balance and supplement with minerals and a whole foods vitamin- taking care not to combine minerals that interfere with another mineral's absorption. I also use 16 to 18 hour intermittent fasting- which has helped me understand true hunger and helped me become more self aware.
I am 42 years old and need to lose 15-20 lbs of fat. I am a mother of several children, the youngest is now eight. Any suggestions you could offer would be very appreciated!!
Hi cbeauty,
I've been following primal eating and exercise since early July, and I have some very similar issues that you do...can any senior members offer some suggestions or insights? Thanks!
Thanks for the suggestion! I just reposted my questions on the 'introduce yourself/say hello' forum. I hope to get a better response. I am feeling better with more energy with consistent mineral supplementation of magnesium and potassium(taken together), zinc (taken alone), and calcium (taken alone). I also have the endurance I need to do SSOS sprints- which makes me very happy!!) I would suggest added mineral supplementation to anyone. It helps with absorption of all nutrients, and these four are each involved in over 300 enzymatic/metabolic functions in the body.
Thanks again
Hi CB,
Have u checked your iron levels? 1 month into the Primal lifestyle and my energy levels stabilized but did not increase. A routine blood test showed I had low iron and I've been on a 2 month supplement regime to get my levels back up. It's like night and day now. In fact I had so much energy that I couldn't sleep last night and had to do push ups and planks until I tired myself out

Queen + Adam Lambert on iHeart Radio Festival Highlights Show AGAIN Tonight
Oberon Treble Schmit
Who Want To Live Forever wasn't a hit in America. Space in the high lights program was limited so a song had to be cut.
Glad that iHeartRadio showed Queen w Adam both nights. I too am disappointed and don't understand why they cut out WWTLF the best performance of the night and probably best live performance I've seen on any stage in my lifetime. I had goosebumps and chills from the first note.
ira deming
I have been a queen fan since the late 1970's and was so excited to see adam lambert was singing with the band. I think he is an excellent choice and the closest available person to the late great Freddie Mercury. I hope this gig works and that you will soon tour and release new music. come to Washington DC please! I would love to see you in concert after all these years.
Good to see Queen!
The highlight of the Queen set was Who Wants to Live Forever....and they're not showing it? Ridiculous. Adam is incredible singing this, and it's a travesty that it's not being shown. Big mistake.
Vicky aka VickStiX
It's a real shame that Who Wants To Live Forever won't be shown, either night. That was an ICONIC performance, and definitely the highlight of both nights. I'm saddened beyond belief, that the public won't get to witness that incredible performance. :-(

a guest blog by Charlie Outhwaite, written for the 2015 Write About Research Competition. Biological diversity, or biodiversity, is a complex term encompassing the variety of life found on Earth. It incorporates not only differences between species but within species themselves and of the environments and ecosystems where they are found. We as humans benefit […]

GEE/CEE Seminar on mitochondria, hybrid breakdown and the origin of species
"Consequences of rapid mtDNA evolution: compensatory coadaptation, hybrid breakdown and speciation"
Ron Burton, Professor of Marine Biology, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California San Diego
Date & Time:
|Wednesday, 17 April at 5pm
|Medical Sciences AV Hill Lecture Theatre (map)
|Nick Lane (Ext 31385)
Despite its small size and limited gene content, the rapid evolution of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) has significant implications for the evolution of animal populations. Aerobic metabolism requires all 13 of the mtDNA-encoded proteins in addition to >70 nuclear proteins. In addition, ~100 additional nuclear proteins are required for the transcription and translation of the mtDNA and must be imported into the mitochondria. Consequently, there are many interactions between mtDNA and nucDNA that favor extensive intergenomic coadaptation. When genetically divergent populations hybridize, coadaptation can be disrupted and lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and reduced fitness (hybrid breakdown). Interpopulation crosses between populations of the copepod Tigriopus californicus provide a good example of this scenario, as hybrid breakdown is due, in large measure, to intergenomic interactions affecting mitochondrial function (manifested in reduced ATP production and increased oxidative damage). Recent work using transcriptomic analyses of both hybrid breakdown and population adaptation to thermal stress in Tigriopus will also be briefly discussed.

When the Altoona and Hollidaysburg girls basketball teams hit the hardwood tonight, there will be much more than bragging rights riding on the ballgame.
The two teams are joining forces in a battle against breast cancer with their first "Pink for a Cure" game.
We've seen "pink" days at local universities and even in the NFL, and now the high schools are getting involved. It's another example of how sports can shine a light on important issues in our society.
"Everybody here and everyone I know has been affected in one way or another by cancer," Pro Active Sports manager Rob Bragonier said. "This event is something different and something the community can get involved with."
Pro Active, owed by cancer survivor Doug Rhodes, approached both teams with the "pink" idea during the offseason. The company is donating the uniforms (home pink for the Lady Mountain Lions, and pink-trimmed white uniform for the visiting Lady Tigers).
Pro Active also produced about 800 special fan T-shirts for the event; most have already been sold. All of the proceeds (more than $3,000 so far) will be donated to breast cancer research.
Altoona has been part of other cancer-fighting events, including a girls tennis match earlier in the year raising awareness about ovarian cancer. Now, in this basketball-crazed community, tonight's event promises to raise cancer consciousness even further.
"Our volleyball team had an event similar to this with Bishop Guilfoyle," Altoona head coach Craig Long said, "so the Hollidaysburg [basketball] idea came up and we figured we'd have a good crowd at the game anyway, and this would add a little more festivity to an already exciting event."
There are too many heroes of this event to list everyone: Long's players have rallied around the effort, selling the $5 T-shirts; Altoona teacher Meghan Bradley and the Maniacs pep club have jumped on board with unbridled enthusiasm, and Hungry Howie's Pizza is adding to its company's own cancer-fighting efforts, contributing pink pizza boxes for the halftime events.
Fans of the long-running rivalry may bleed maroon and white or navy and gold, but all will be tickled pink come tipoff.
"This is what athletics is all about," Altoona athletic director Phil Riccio said. "You're rivals on the floor and do all you can to win, but off the court, you are one team to support positive community actions. My vision is to expand this event. We're going to give back as much as we can when we can, and it's important for our student-athletes to be involved in paying it forward."
Hollidaysburg is looking forward to hosting the second annual Pink for a Cure game next year, and the Lady Tigers will be part of similar-themed game later this season at State College. But tonight's clash has special meaning and a special message.
"Hollidaysburg and Altoona are such tremendous rivals," Lady Tiger head Joe Hurd said. "But I think there will be more of a sense of camaraderie [this] evening because it goes beyond the competition and preparation you put into a game like that. There will be more perspective as to what is really important and that won't go away until the ball's tossed up, then we'll be right at each other."
The action on the court promises to be as intense as ever, but when the final buzzer sounds, both teams will be in the pink, knowing they contributed to a crucial battle, one that is much bigger than basketball.

This issue of parallax seeks to consider stupidity both as an object of political investigation as well as a rhetorical strategy and problem. Stupidity troubles the boundaries of understanding and is traditionally perceived as a pejorative judgment; however, we wish to ask what dissonances, critiques historical narratives and productive uses the politics of stupidity elicits. We invite submissions on stupidity as a philosophical and political tool.
Stupidity can be defined by intent: it is identifiable when one wilfully refuses to understand. Associated with tactlessness, self-certainty and forcefulness, stupidity is consciously enacted, making it thus a category of thought. If stupidity entails refusal, could it enable new forms of political dissent? At the same time, Derrida demonstrates that stupidity is actually not so much defined by intent as being bound to involuntary acts. This would seem to disrupt stupidity's relationship with conscious thought. Stupidity is for Derrida an inexplicable failure of judgment aligned with the unconscious. How does one take advantage of stupidity's force without returning it to intentionality? Can stupidity be affirmed without losing its elusiveness? Is writing stupidly an impossible project? Or might understanding stupidity enable us to conceptualise political action, taking account of how the ability to act is compromised?
Through a close reading of Avital Ronell's Stupidity, Derrida developed his theory of stupidity as an insufficient translation of the French term bętise. Locating the contingency of stupidity's meaning he reads it as a negative judgment without a 'univocal' concept. Derrida believes stupidity's ignoble stature makes it an unspeakable core within philosophy. The neglect of stupidity highlights the denigration of minoritarian subjectivites that the accusation of stupidity can demean. If the intellectual is not exempt from stupidity and if it cannot be overcome by accumulating more knowledge, how can the problem of stupidity be worked on and through?
Moreover, stupidity's ability to punish or to give credibility derives from a hegemonic power relation. Eve Sedgwick refers to the 'privilege of unknowing' whereby patriarchal heteronomative culture plays ignorant and implicitly stupid to deny its dependence upon the circulation of same sex desire. Does embracing unintelligibility enable non-normative subjects to avoid complicity in discriminatory politics of identification? If stupidity is used to discredit unintelligibility, what advantages are there in this move? How might the problem of stupidity be posed in relation to the refusal of distinct sexual definitions which underwrites much of contemporary queer politics?
We invite papers that respond to stupidity by examining its marginalisation within philosophical practice whilst also encouraging contributors to take seriously the provocation of writing stupidly as a critical practice.

Al-Qaeda today An article from Time Magazine: it's incredible to see the changes in the US media two years after the 9/11 attacks in the US. Immediately after 9/11, and then with the Bush administration's "war on terror," the media didn't question, didn't raise doubts, didn't argue ... nothing ... now, after two years, the questions are being asked. But what if the media had been objective in the beginning - would Bush had been successful in mounting a campaign in Iraq? A campaign that's bogged down US forces, and lend support to terrorists and anti-Americans? Had the media questioned - had American's questioned - Bush's motives were hardly for the good of anyone other than himself. He stated it clearly that he was after the man who tried to kill his Dad. Like that's an excuse for the thousands of Iraqis dead, or the daily deaths of US soldiers in a war that really wasn't just.
