Saying GoodbyeMature
"Phoenix you can't go!" Crimson cried. "Please! You must
stay!" Crimson was my neighbor and my best friend since I was little. Dark red
hair that covered his eyes, which helped his parents give him the name,
Crimson. Tears were streaming down his face. He didn't want me to leave. He
loved me like a sister, or in Riley's case, more than I know.
"Crimson!" I screamed, tired of all the crying. "Please…calm
down." I said calmer then when I said his name. He looked at me, confused, sad,
and scared. Guilt crossed my face. He didn't want me to leave him. I couldn't
stand seeing my best friend so sad.
"Please" he said in a whisper. A tear fell upon my cheek. I
couldn't leave him here alone. He would be made fun of without me here to help
"Crimson" I said calmly, with a smile. He looked up at me,
curiosity crossing his face. "Would you like to come with me?" his face lit up
with shock and surprise.
"Really!" he said. "You mean it?!" he hugged me tight, his fiery
hair mixing with my long black hair. I smiled. Was this what love is? Knowing so,
might help me on my way.
"Of course" I said. He backed away, revealing his eyes and
they became their natural color of a deep, dark red. It matched his hair, the
same exact color. The first time I saw his eyes, I was wondering if he was hiding
something from me, since they went from black, purple, and red.
His smile made me happier than anything. He always made my
day when I was sad and scared; the day I found out I was alone in a small town.
But then I knew I wasn't completely alone. I had a friend. I true and complete
friend who would never leave my side.
"Thanks, Phoenix" he said, with a smile.
"You're welcome, Crimson" I said happily. "Maybe this isn't goodbye
after all". He nodded in agreement.
For the rest of the day till the time I left, we gather our
most important things and set out to find them. The vampires.

PMS Relief
I was looking for something natural to curb my PMS symptoms. I did a lot of research and found PMS Relief by Rainbow Light. I have just begun to use PMS Relief and can already tell a difference. While the symptoms are not completely gone, I have noticed that they are diminishing. My physical and emotional symptoms have decreased and have made the time prior to my cycle more bearable.
Easy to take and pleasant taste.
Wish more quantity per bottle.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

The MDGs and Social Policy Innovations from South Asia
By Gabriele Köhler | Comparative Research Program on Poverty | November 2, 2011
The Millennium Development Goals, with the ultimate aim of improving human rights and human development, have been in place for a decade. Since 2008, massive financial and food price crises, and the recent resurgence of fiscal austerity politics, coupled with the accelerated frequency of natural disasters and political conflict, are reasons for the shortfalls in their implementation.
But the deeper shortcoming of the MDGs lies in the lack of analytical and policy depth in the initial MDG design (Hulme and Fukuda-Parr 2009). As the moment to rethink or extend the MDGs approaches, policy makers are taking a renewed look into the structural causes of poverty, deprivations, vulnerabilities, and exclusions and becoming more attuned to the need to formulate comprehensive policies for structural reform (UN DESA 2009; UN General Assembly 2010; Kabeer 2010).
At the global level, the slow progress in human development is due to the asymmetrical power relations which determine global production, trade and finance, and income and wealth distribution. At the national level, deprivations and poverty are rooted in domestic power structures, and anchored in the inequitable distribution of and the systematic lack of access to crucial assets such as land and water; the absence of decently remunerated and long-term employment; the difficulties in accessing quality, inclusive social services; and the knowledge, space and genuine, risk-free empowerment which would enable citizens to claim their rights. Radical reform is needed if the MDGs are to lead towards the necessary transformative change.South Asia is becoming a hotbed of policy innovations aimed at poverty, exclusion, jobs, and access to information.
Several shifts in global governance may contribute to such reforms. The first is the changing global development architecture—the emergence of the G20 and the BRICS as a new constellation of high and medium income countries influencing global policy decisions and redirecting global resource flows. The second is at the level of policy approaches: countries in Latin America, Africa, and Asia are presenting a new generation of policies with the ambition of achieving human development and implementing the MDGs (Hanlon et al 2010). Within these shifts, there is the double effect that some of the countries which are emerging as economically powerful in international trade, investment and development aid are, in their domestic policy, introducing new socioeconomic measures, the most prominent of which in the area of social protection.
The South Asia region is one such centre of policy innovation, with a series of programs designed to advance inclusive human development which are cast as "rights-based." Recent policy innovations are directed at employment, income poverty, social exclusion, and access to information (see also Bonnerjee and Koehler 2011 and Koehler 2011). This policy brief is on policy intent and design, with a view to highlighting policy innovation. It does not look at outcomes—the persistently poor performance on most social indicators and the key MDG targets, and violence and human rights violations—which would need to be examined separately.
Policy Innovations: Examples from South Asia
Policies designed to create employment and wage incomes
The best-documented recent policy innovation on South Asia is the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) in India, introduced in 2006. Its objective is to enhance "the livelihood security of people in rural areas by guaranteeing hundred days of wage-employment in a financial year to a rural household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work." (Government of India 2008a). Employment on public works sites must be made available on request; if a work site is not created, registered work seekers are entitled to an "unemployment allowance at a rate agreed at the state level" (Government of India 2008b:37; Chopra 2009; Ehmke 2011). All workers are registered with a job card; information on workdays, wages, annual budget allocations and expenditures are published, state by state, on the MGNREGS website. The scheme has provisions for transparency and social audits. In 2010–11, the scheme provided employment of at least 15 days to 34 million households.
In Bangladesh, an Employment Generation Programme for Hard-Core Poor was introduced initially in 2008/9, with priority for 81 highly poverty-prone rural sub-districts. The government allocated Taka 200,000,000 in 2008/9 and Taka 117,600,000 in 2009–2010. The objective is to create employment for extremely poor unemployed people in rural areas; increase the purchasing power of the extreme poor people affected by food price inflation; and develop and maintain small-scale rural infrastructure and communication systems. As a first outcome, the government recorded a total of 2 million laborers, roughly 80 percent men and 20 percent women, with almost 90 million workdays created. The wage rate is 100 Taka per day (approximately US$ 1.35). There is an unemployment allowance, modelled on the Indian example—if an applicant fails to receive a job within 15 days of registration, she or he will receive a social transfer (Government of Bangladesh, no year). This again is an interesting combination of an employment scheme linked to social protection, similar to the NREGS.Some social assistance programs are based on citizenship, thereby constituting a right.
Similarly in Pakistan, an employment generation scheme in small local level public works for rural unskilled workers is to guarantee employment, again for one hundred days a year, with a guaranteed daily wage equal to the minimum wage. A pilot scheme was announced in 2010 for twelve least-developed districts, and districts affected by the security situation. Five billion rupees were allocated for this program in the 2010 fiscal budget, with a view to covering 200,000 households in the first year (Government of Pakistan, Minister for Finance). Implementation has, however, not yet begun.
In Nepal, the Karnali Employment Programme (KEP), adopted as a policy in 2010, aims to create 100 days of employment for persons without employment living in Karnali, the poorest region of Nepal, with a population of circa 350,000. The government budget allocation is Rs. 250 million. Reportedly, over 60,000 of the 64,000 households found employment, albeit averaging 15—rather than the stipulated 100—days in the program's first year (Vaidya et al 2010). The program offers a notion of an entitlement to a job, a minimum wage, and to social protection.
The fact that governments are systematically designing public works schemes to generate—even if limited and exacting—employment with an element of predictability, transparent wage regimes, and access to social transfers if the works scheme does not materialise—suggests a shift in poverty and employment policy.
Policies addressing income poverty
Several South Asian countries feature social assistance, often age related. One of the oldest universal social protection schemes is Nepal's social pension scheme, introduced in 1995 for Nepali citizens over the age of 75. Eligibility is based on citizenship, creating a sense of entitlement by virtue of having contributed to the economy and society in the course of one's life. Moreover, despite the low level of the benefit, in low-income rural areas, the amount received gives some—even if marginal—financial autonomy to elder family members. Bangladesh, India, Maldives also have social pensions, they are means tested as opposed to universal.
Also in Nepal, a Child Protection Grant was introduced in 2009. The objective is to assist families in offering better nutrition and accessing health services for children under 5. It is categorically targeted to all families in the Karnali Zone, and to low-income, landless Dalit households throughout the country. The entitlement is 200 rupees monthly per child for up to two children per family; if there are more than two children, the girl children are the recipients (Government of Nepal 2009). Although not mentioned explicitly, it relates to the right of the child, as agreed in the country's post-conflict Interim Constitution.
In Pakistan, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), introduced in 2008, is a scheme to promote "equal opportunities and social justice," and "poverty alleviation and women empowerment among the underprivileged section of Pakistani society." It is proxy means tested. Cash transfers of 100 rupees ($12) per month are made to roughly 430,000 beneficiaries, aiming for a 20 percent decrease in poverty by 2014 (Government of Pakistan, no year). In multi-generational households, each family carries its own entitlement. The women as the entitlement holders receive a citizenship card as well as a bank account in their own name, providing women in low-income households an unprecedented degree of visibility and conceivably some status in the family. "The decision to identify women as primary beneficiaries represented a break from past practice and institutional habit of constructing the relationship between the state and individuals through the male heads of family." (Gazdar 2011:8).
These social assistance schemes addressing the most vulnerable groups are innovative in that they are based on citizenship—thereby constituting a right. Like the employment guarantees, this marks a policy shift.
Policies addressing the impact of social exclusion
Exclusions—based on gender, caste, ethnicity, language, religious affiliation, age, and other vectors of identity—are pervasive across South Asia, creating economic poverty and societal and political disadvantage. They are among the key obstacles to human development and equitable MDG achievement and require dedicated policies (Kabeer 2010; Koehler 2009). Several South Asian schemes address social exclusion, especially with respect to gender and caste.Policies and delivery mechanisms for social protection are often complex, fragmented, and opaque.
The Bangladesh government introduced a secondary school stipend as early as 1994 for all girl children, regardless of the economic situation of the family, to address the gender gap in education. Girls' secondary school enrolment now stands at 42 percent, compared to 22 percent in 1989; in fact, the gender gap has been reversed (Asadullah and Chaudhury 2009: 1372), and the scheme may now be extended to all secondary school children to encourage more boys to continue schooling.
In Nepal, school stipends are available for girls and for children from disadvantaged castes, administered by a School Management Committee which identifies eligible children, and distributes and monitors the scheme (Koehler, Cali, Stirbu 2009). The objective is to overcome family- and community-level resistance to the education of girl children and children from the Dalit caste.
Several states in India have developed girl child grants to halt female feticide and infanticide. In Madhya Pradesh, for example, girl children registered at birth are to receive an accumulated fund of approximately Rs 180,000 rupees (approximately US$ 2,700) from the state government at the time of marriage. A similar scheme in Tamil Nadu deposits 22,200 rupees (approximately US$ 500) for each girl child at birth, which she is to receive at age 20, while the interest is available to her family for educational expenses (Government of India 2007; Srinivasan and Bedi 2009).
In terms of policy innovation, these schemes acknowledge social exclusion as a systemic challenge and as a violation of rights which requires government attention.
Policies designed to facilitate access to information
In most countries, policies and delivery mechanics of social protection measures are complex, fragmented, and beneficiaries often lack information as to eligibility, application processes, benefit levels, etc. Good communications and transparency are thus vital for social protection. It is therefore of interest that right to information acts have been adopted in India, Bangladesh and Nepal (Bonnerjee and Koehler 2011). Their impact has not yet been systematically evaluated, but they undeniably can provide a handle to facilitate implementation and delivery of the social policy and social protection measures.
The policies presented above are innovative, and they can contribute to addressing the impact of the fiscal, financial and food price crises, and they can play a role in helping achieve the Millennium Development Goals, improving human rights and reaching towards inclusive human development. They have in common that they are rights based, they acknowledge and attempt to tackle poverty, vulnerability and social exclusion.In a major shift, today's policy innovations in social protection are being designed as poverty relief for individuals.
There are nevertheless a number of caveats. These policy innovations in the field of social protection are ultimately conceptualized and delivered as individualized forms of poverty policy. This is a move away from the development policy of earlier decades which was conceived as integrated rural development, including attempts at land reform and efforts for agricultural upgrading, or as community- and national-level economic development (Bonnerjee and Koehler 2011).
The innovations are primarily situated in the domain of poverty alleviation, and while they address employment, they are not geared to changing macroeconomic growth patterns and facilitating economic restructuring towards employment-rich, high productivity, creative sectors (Sabates-Wheeler and Koehler 2011).
Despite considerable increases in the fiscal resources devoted to these programs, they do not (yet) constitute a redirection of incomes and wealth that would redress the increasing income inequalities witnessed across most of South Asia. And, related to this latter point, the small size of the social assistance benefits in the individual programs would rarely suffice to enable asset building in the recipient households, and thus genuinely change situations of economic and social exclusion.
The policy innovations should therefore not be romanticized as a panacea, but instead recognized and enhanced as a shift in policy philosophy which can have a considerable impact on social policy governance nationally, regionally, and globally. If they are twinned with progressive, employment-oriented economic policy and coupled with redistributive tax reform, they can serve to accelerate the systemic reform needed if human development is to make genuine progress and the MDGs are to materialize equitably.

Moral foundations of individualism

Obsessive mentality - Butchart Gardens version.
A couple was refused admission to Butchart Gardens because they were wearing a hat, long dress, and suit - on their wedding anniversary.
Butchart Gardens then tried to rationalize their mistake by comparing crowded Disneyland to Butchart Gardens, talking of obvious hazards like skateboards and selfie sticks in crowds, and saying they turned away someone in a ladybug costume (obviously - to most people - a very different situation). And tried to pay the couple off by agreeing to an expensive taxi ride back to Victoria, where they came from by bus.
What's the solution to that attitude?
The free market of course - people can determine if the business is reforming from its confused thinking, and move on to better if not. (Indeed, the couple enjoyed other gardens and historical venues while visiting Victoria.)

(meaning 'Spanish intermediate bird') was named by palaeontologists Sanz and Bonaparte in 1992. A well preserved skeleton of this early bird was found in a lake deposit in Las Hoyas, Spain in 1992.
was about the size of a small finch with a wingspan of about 20 centimetres. It was a true bird as it had feathered wings and was capable of powered flight rather than simply gliding. However, it had retained the reptilian features of teeth in its beak and a claw on its wing. It was probably omnivorous, feeding on anything it was big enough to tackle. The fact that its remains were found in a lake deposit suggests that aquatic crustaceans may have formed part of its diet.
As a group, birds evolved in the Jurassic period from therapod dinosaurs. By the Early Cretaceous period they were flourishing, having evolved into a number of diverse forms. However, they still had to share the skies with the pterosaurs until the end of the Cretaceous period.

Washington Hospital Center, Washington, DC
Acinetobacter bumannii (AB) is a highly-resistant pathogen & is an important cause of nosocomial infection. We noted an outbreak of AB bacteremia at our institution following the onset of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). We sought to describe the epidemiology of AB bacteremia and its differential impact on trauma and non-trauma patients.
We retrospectively identified all patients with AB bacteremia seen at our facility from Jan 2001 thru Aug 2004. Mortality represented our primary endpoint. We compared outcomes in injured service members to those seen in non-trauma patients and explored the effect of initially inappropriate antibiotic treatment on survival (defined as prescription of an anti-infective to which the pathogen was resistant based on sensitivity testing).
During the study period, there were 47 cases of AB bacteremia. From 2001 to 2004 the prevalence of AB bacteremia increased from 0.7 cases to 14.0 cases per 100,000 patient-days (p<0.001). Seventy-five percent of subjects were in the ICU when their blood cultures became positive, and 40% of cases represented nosocomial spread to non-active duty patients. Nearly 20% of isolates were carbepenem resistant. Colistin was given in 2 cases. Non-OIF subjects were older, more often immunosuppressed, and more severely ill. Although the overall case fatality rate was 17%, mortality was 15.8 times (95% CI: 1.8-144.2) more likely in non-OIF patients than in injured service members. The one death in a soldier was not infection-related. This differential in survival was present despite the fact that OIF subjects more often received initially inappropriate antimicrobial therapy (50.0% vs. 22.2%).
Nosocomial spread of AB bacteremia poses a major threat to non-trauma patients. Despite the extent of their injuries and severity of illness, AB has less of an impact on critically ill trauma patients.
Infection control must remain a central aspect of any approach to addressing AB. That inappropriate antimicrobial therapy did not correlate with mortality in previously healthy trauma patients suggests that the importance of this factor on outcomes relates to the specific population studied.

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Make Your Own Gear › cuben monk tarp
@zalmen_mlotekLocale: Northwest CT
I am thinking for my first shelter project of building a monk tarp (not much to screw up). Should I use a center tieout? MLD has 2 on their monk tarp. However I have no idea how to make them. I tried finding instructions/photos from old threads and google but didn't find what I was looking for.
@kingpinLocale: WV
If you're wanting to do center tieout, you will need 2 pieces of reinforcement material(70d ripstop nylon works good) cut in a circle of about 3in diameter. Pin one on each side of the fabric where you aim to put your tieout. Stitch the 2 reinforcements to your tarp material, then place your grosgran tab in the center of the reinforement patch and either bartack it, sew back and forth over it a few times or even zig zag stitch it a few times. The hardest part is sewing the circular patches without them bunching up or your stitches being crooked. I have found that if you put a thin layer of silicone glue (GE Silicone II or similar) on the patches and let them dry overnight before stitching; it makes for a much cleaner look as well as being easier to sew.
Hope this helps
@zalmen_mlotekLocale: Northwest CT
I am planning on using cuben. Would I be able to cut circles and use hysol to bond them to the tarp? Would I sew the grosgrain loops to circle first and then glue it to the tarp?
@kingpinLocale: WV
Yes on using the Hysol and cuben circles. I'm not sure about how the tieout would hold not being sewn through all three pieces of cuben. I've only used cuben a few times and never bonded it. Hopefully someone with more cuben experience will chime in.

Moss the Boss
Moss the Boss owned the jelly bean plant,
But he was also a mean, old cuss,
And every time a mistake was made,
He made a terrible fuss.
Moss the Boss would inspect each bean,
To make sure that the color was right,
You see his reds all had to be dark,
And his yellows, they had to be bright.
Moss the Boss decided one day,
That he needed to make something new,
So he created a flavor that nobody had,
Huckleberry Grape Honeydew.
Because somebody made a mistake,
Moss the Boss his top he blew,
Instead of the flavor he wanted to make,
They made Pickle Juice Kangaroo Stew.
Moss the Boss had to make do,
With the colors that he already knew,
Red ones and green, purple and white,
The yellow but mostly the blue.
Moss the Boss was the boss no more,
Because he never made anything new,
So learn from his life this bit of advice,
Make more with your life than the blues.

Need Nickle screws for front door hinge
I have a new home and the top hinge has 5 of the eight screw holes stripped. The screws screw in but don't get tight. The length is 3/4" long. I guess I could install dowels in the holes (after I drill them larger) but I wanted to install longer screws as that would be easier. The problem I am having is locating longer nickle screws. Is 3/4" long the only ones that are available? I think they are a #8 flathead screw.
199 Attachment(s)
Most new pre-hung doors come with 1-3 longer screws in the finish (nickel or brass) so you can connect the hinges to the house framing. That said, any door supplier "can" order the screws your looking for.
Forget the box stores, they have their apron strings on to tight to figure it out.
Even a good hardware store can get confused.
Go to your well established local lumber yard's contractors desk, they can hook you up.
I say "go to the contractors desk" because their the vet's in the store. The guy/gal at the register probably doesn't have a clue.
Ayuh,... A wooden match,+ a spot of glue will Fix the holes....
Then reuse the screws you have...
Home Depot has them in 1-3/4", both finishes. Across the aisle from the locksets.
Be safe, Gary

In 1882, Thomas Edison established the planet's first central power plant.
Reciprocating steam motors provided the energy to dynamos which generated direct-current power. Shop keepers and other stores used the unique idea of electrical lighting to draw customers.
In 1883, the first utility scam happened.That scam, in one form or another, has been on the streets ever since. While most people don't fall for it, using the "law of large numbers", scammers have found enough marks to make the fraud profitable.
Holiday Wave of Scams
In November, ComEd Security, reacting to an upsurge in scams, reminded customers to be aware of scammers targeting residential and business customers throughout the service area.
The scams were simple. A ComEd customer would get a phone call from a supposed ComEd employee claiming that the company's billing cycle had changed, and immediate payment was needed. The caller went on to tell the customer that the account was past due and was subject to disconnection unless immediate payment were made.
The scammers instructed customers to buy a prepaid credit card and directed them to call back with the PIN. Combining a smooth pitch with caller ID "spoofing", the scam was complete, and the customer was convinced.
In April, the scam showed up again.
On April 8, an area pet store had their turn. A caller told a store employee that the business was behind, and the power would be shut off within 30 minutes. As instructed by the caller, the victim bought prepaid money cards and called back with the card numbers and PINs.
The next day, someone sounding like the same man called back and said he had made a mistake and had refunded the money. The caller then told the employee that the business owed, even more, money than what had been paid to make the bill current. The employee spoke with a store supervisor, who Googled the number and found it was connected to similar frauds nationally.
The pay-now-or-we'll-cut-your-power-off isn't the only scam that has been seen in Chicago metro.
The Switcheroo
Many people don't understand that, in some states, including Illinois, an individual can choose the electrical and gas utility that serves them. The idea behind this is that consumers should be able to determine which utility company to use based on who provides lower rates or sources their energy from renewable resources.
Often, consumers are tricked into paying higher rates for electricity. How does this work?
Companies employ "salespeople" who come to the door saying they can save you money on the utility bill. They'll request to examine your electricity statement so they can show all the ways in which they can help.
They're not interested with trying to help you conserve some cash. Many times, they will tell you about low introductory rates before jacking the prices up months later. Frequently, they're just lying. The worst part? You don't even have to agree to anything. If they see your account number, they can take it and switch you to a different electrical provider - even without your permission.
The next worst part? Many of the salespeople don't know they're fraudsters. Companies lie to them and make them believe they are actually helping people.
Not every energy service company (ESCO) is a fraud. There are some legitimate ways a customer can save on the electricity rates. Several lists of ESCOs in the Chicago metro region are available online. As usual, comparison shopping is a good place to start.
How to avoid the scam? If someone knocks on your door and asks to see the bill, don't give it to them - under any circumstances. If you dwell in an apartment building, notify the building supervisor quickly.
Following these tips will help you outsmart the scammer when they show up. Remember: whenever in doubt, contact the utility company through the phone number listed on their website, They will be able to help in most situations.
Anyone who thinks they may have been a target of a phone scam should contact the Illinois Attorney Generals office: 800-386-5438.

Last year during its run to the Big Ten and Rose Bowl titles, Michigan State unveiled a few new uniform designs. Like, the all-green look it wore for the Big Ten title game and Rose Bowl Game. Well, if the football models on display at the team's complex are any indication, the Spartans could have some new designs in 2014. See photos of the uniforms in this post.

Stephenson Harwood is set to launch on the ground in Indonesia through a tie-up with local firm Christian Teo Purwono & Partners.
The deal, signed on Thursday (24 November), comes 15 years after the firm launched in Singapore.
It is the City firm's first associated office in Asia. It already has full offices in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shanghai and Singapore and currently has associated offices in France, Greece, Kuwait and Romania.
Local regulations mean the firm is not permitted to launched on its own in Indonesia and cannot send any London partners to join the operation.
Stephenson Harwood CEO Sharon White revealed the firm had been eyeing an Indonesia deal for a while and would consider further Asian tie-ups.
"I think we're very open to the idea of doing it. They key is always finding the right people," she told The Lawyer.
Christian Teo Purwono founder partner Christian Teo said in a statement: "We're very enthusiastic about the association with Stephenson Harwood. This is an opportunity for us to work closely with an international law firm, which will enable us to offer existing and potential clients a high level of service and enhanced technical expertise both inside and outside of Indonesia."
White said the deal would bolster the firm's corporate and projects practices, especially in the resources and telecommunications sector.

About MeI am a creative individual who loves to dream big, but also work hard. I am currently a Drama student, but work in the industry as model, singer, actress and presenter.

The essays in this volume, written in memory of Judge Nagendra Singh are centred around the theme of ""International Law in Transition"". The international legal system has been in transition ever since the end of the Second World War, and it can be argued that a ""new"" international law has emerged, different from traditional Eurocentric law, and comprising legal principles and standards of beaviour acceptable to all States, irrespective of their ideological, economic or political systems. Innovations in international law have been brought about in response to contemporary needs, demands and aspirations within the global community, to fill gaps in the existing law, and in order to bring it into some accord with radically new societal conditions. Distinguished scholars, jurists and judges from around the world have contributed essays to this thought-provoking book.
