Peckinpah's 1975 thriller is infuriatingly uneven. It is also one of his
most interesting films, throwing the director's preoccupations into relief.
It was made between the gothic thriller Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia
(1974), and his last great film, Cross Of Iron (1977). As the critic Pauline
Kael noted, it was a way of proving himself alive to the Hollywood
establishment, a "transparent disguise for... determination to show
Hollywood that he's not dead yet... that, despite the tabloid views of him,
frail and falling down drunk, he's got the will to make great movies." It's
no accident that this is a film in which the director stresses his auteurism
with more than the usual self-consciousness (the words 'directed by' and
'Sam Peckinpah' are separated by an emphatic crosscut in the opening
credits). Neither that it is one in which the theme of rehabilitation or,
more specifically, recuperation - dominates the dramatic matter in hand,
giving the narrative a lopsidedness from which it never really recovers.
Kung Fu plot notwithstanding, at the centre of The Killer Elite is the relationship between Locken (James Caan) and Hansen (Robert Duvall). The shifting balance between two men, who find themselves on opposite sides of the law, recall similar relationships in Ride The High Country (1962), between Steve Judd and Gil Westrum, or in The Wild Bunch (1969), between Pike Bishop and Deke Thornton. "I can't figure why he didn't put the third one in my head," says Locken, brooding in hospital. "He's your buddy," is the characteristic reply. Locken and Hansen may travel further apart than the other examples of broken camaraderie in Peckinpah's work, but their mutual respect remains intact to the end. In the shoot out at the darkened quay, despite his thirst for revenge, Locken walks away from his former partner in disgust and he's not responsible for the final bullet.
The relationship between the two men is what focuses Locken's life and gives his actions perspective. Once his buddy is dead, his character loses all motivation, and then the movie its soul. What's left is a ramshackle kung fu killer plot, which any competent straight-to-video producer could have scribbled down on the back of an envelope. Peckinpah's other films frequently end when the central partnership was irrevocably dissolved. For all of its martial pyrotechnics, The Killer Elite just goes on too long.
The most successful part of the film is contained within the opening third. The first operation, Hansen's initial betrayal (which occurs in a world of surveillance that anticipates The Osterman Weekend, 1983), and the mechanics of Locken's physical reconstruction are, by turn, engrossing. It's a time of development and learning for Locken. From the casual sex of the opening the injured agent has to adjust, restrain his bitterness ("I'll just limp out of here"), and establishes a more permanent relationship with his nurse while on the mend. From embracing a broad, Locken ends up clutching a bedpan, then grasps at any chance to re-establish himself as whole. Peckinpah found delineating the mending processes so engrossing that the belated introduction of Negato Toku (Tak Kubota) as "Godfather of all the ninja assassins," and then Locken's fortuitous assignment to protect Yuen Cheung (Mako) against death within the USA are like dramatic afterthoughts, tellingly summarised in conversation over the airport fight.
These airport scenes, however expertly cut together by the director, are perhaps amongst the most gratuitous scenes of violence in his oeuvre. The fighting is dwelt on purely as a means to patch over a glaring narrative fault line, carrying along some clumsy verbal exposition. It has none of the catharsis, or brutal poetry, familiar from the director's other films. Locken's recuperation has proved a distraction. After his hospital a scene, the belated 'catching up' scene feels at best rushed, at worst intrusive. Worse, we sense Peckinpah is just not as emotionally engaged with martial arts as he is with the matter of the Old West. (A feeling underlined when Locken watches the final ninja swordfight with calculated disinterest, calmly betting on the result.) An obvious sop to those fans who wanted more of the action exemplified in Clouse's Enter The Dragon of two years previously, the kung fu in Peckinpah's film is vigorous, filmed with style, but remains peculiarly unconvincing. Strip away the martial arts and what remains is far more interesting and consistent with Peckinpah's personal philosophy. As in his other films there is a theme running through The Killer Elite, one of honour and the inexorable passing of the old ways. One thinks of the mothballed fleet the scene of the final confrontation, a veritable graveyard of former pride and glory. "You've just been retired Mike, enjoy it," says Hansen after crippling Locken. "You just retired, Cap," echoes Locken in irony, when addressing his traitorous superior at the end. In The Killer Elite, a new order is recognised: that of power systems, none of which care about civilians, or integrity - a recognition enunciated rather surprisingly by the shambling Miller (a scruffy Bo Hopkins). Cap Collins (Arthur Hill) had earlier put these changes more succinctly: "Would you believe that heroism has become old fashioned?" So half-baked and ludicrous is the action plot that much of the film's other pleasure comes from incidentals. The initial friendship between Locken and Hansen for instance, or Miller's girlfriend calling everyone 'Mr Davies'; the editing of the explosive opening sequence; or the bomb-under-the-car scene, ending with the distant explosion (pure comic 'business' rare in Peckinpah); Caan's sensitive performance. Allied to this is Jerry Fielding's score, an outstanding contribution from a composer who worked with the director on several occasions, as well as the acting in support from Peckinpah regulars like Hopkins. In short, The Killer Elite is something of curate's egg, only good in parts but, with all its unsatisfactory elements, still essential viewing for admirers of this director.
I'm a huge fan of Sam Peckinpah's movies and I'm trying to write a comment
about them all. However, this is one of the few that I'm less enthusiastic
about, simply because it is not up to the high standard usually associated
with the director (perhaps the studio tampering is partly to blame for
It's a spy flick about a not-very-nice unit of the CIA which tackles all the dirty, gritty jobs that nobody else wants. James Caan and Robert Duvall are in the organisation and are great friends, until Duvall accepts a bribe and tries to blow Caan's head off during an assignment. The rest of the movie follows Caan as he rehabilitates from the injury and sets about gaining his revenge.
The theme of honesty among savages made The Wild Bunch compelling, but here it is used to lesser effect. Peckinpah himself was a disgraced figure in Hollywood with his drug and drink problems at the time that this movie was made, and you often feel that he made it purely to keep working during such a difficult period. There's certainly a shortage of passion and belief in the material.
The best thing about the film is Duvall, but he disappears early and doesn't come back into it until near the end (and then only briefly). It also contains some good martial arts moments, although strictly speaking it is not a martial arts film. Other than that, it is definitely a low point in the Sam Peckinpah canon, and can only be recommended to those who are keen to watch all the director's movies rather than just the best ones.
I have a friend who likes action films, but is not familiar with action films of the 70s. Every time I bring over a 70s flick, like this one, she complains that it's too slow and boring. I tell her that it's because there is a plot and character development that modern action films lack. She doesn't care about that, she just wants to see the action scenes and the violence. This is pretty typical of those who are hooked into music videos and video games that have no plot, no character development, are finished quickly, and exist only for immediate gratification of the need for an adrenaline rush, like one minute carnival rides. If this is what you like, you won't like this film. But if you enjoy good character and story development, you won't be disappointed.
Entertaining and fairly gritty look at the real life undercover spooks who
do the CIA's dirty work or sometimes are bought by the highest bidder.
Contains some parallels to Peckinpah's greatest film THE WILD BUNCH in that it explores themes of obsolescence, integrity, loyalty, and friendship. Caan and Duvall are at the top of their game and supporting actors Burt Young, Bo Hopkins, and Gig Young lend credibility as guys who are willing to play the dirty game.
Jerry Fielding score as in THE WILD BUNCH is superb. 4 out of 5 stars
To all the long-faced dimwits bemoaning the decidedly uncontentious tone of this picture, I've three words: Get a life! First off, the "The Killer Elite" is a rip-roaring gasser about the most offbeat assassins to ever walk the earth. Burt Young versus ninjas? James Caan and Robert Duvall serenading CIA safe houses? Where do I sign? Maybe some also bellow on about how watered-down "The Killer Elite" is amongst the Peckinpah pantheon, but I put this to you: how many "PG"-rated pictures include defectors getting their brains blown out, as sanguine life sprays the walls? Not many. Third off, the nihilistic corporate pecking order as portrayed in the film sums up the old "Alfredo Garcia" "no heroes" mentality quite nicely. Mako and Gig "Fred C. Dobbs" Young are there to party, Caan, Duvall, and Young seem to be having the time of their lives, so what are we waiting for? "Let's go bananas."
I have been trying to find 'The Killer Elite' for quite some time. Directed by the legendary Sam Peckinpah in between two of his best and most underrated movies ('Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia' and 'Cross Of Iron'), and re-teaming James Caan and Robert Duvall, co-stars of 'The Godfather', I was sure that this was going to be one of those great lost 70s gems like 'Rolling Thunder' or 'The Yakuza'. Sadly, it isn't. Now I know Peckinpah often suffered studio interference and rarely got to get a movie on screen with his vision uncompromised, so I can only assume this is the case here. Caan, who is always watchable no matter what he is in, plays a CIA operative who is betrayed by his partner, Duvall (who only has a small supporting role to be honest). Wounded and written off by his bosses, he is manipulated into guarding an Asian politician (Mako, best known for the 'Conan' films) who Duvall is trying to assassinate. Caan and his hand-picked team (Peckinpah regular Bo Hopkins, and Burt Young of 'Rocky' fame) carry out there task in good faith until it becomes increasingly obvious that they are being used. Peckinpah deals with his frequent themes of loyalty and honour, and there is some characteristic bloody action sequences, but frankly the script leaves a lot to be desired, the plot sometimes wanders off track, and some golden opportunities are missed. 'The Killer Elite' reeks of compromise and therefore fails to completely satisfy. But hey, even neutered Peckinpah is still Peckinpah, and just about everything he directed wipes the floor with most of Hollywood's current lame output, so I still say give this one a try. For all its flaws it still stars James Caan, one of the most underrated actors of his generation, and even that in itself is enough to keep me watching.
The problem with "The Killer Elite" is that just by seeking this film
out, and investing time to watch it, you are putting more effort into
the experience than many of its principals did, particularly director
Sam Peckinpah.
The already volatile Peckinpah was heading into rough weather with this film. According to at least one biographer, this was where he became acquainted with cocaine. Add to that his binge drinking, and it's no wonder things fell apart.
It's a shame, because the concept behind the film is a good one, and the first ten minutes promise much. Mike Locken (James Caan) and George Hansen (Robert Duvall) are private contractors who do a lot of dirty work for the CIA. They move quick, live well, and seem like the best of friends - then something happens to shatter their brotherhood.
An opening scene shows them blowing up a building - why exactly we aren't told, par for the course in terms of this film's murky motivation. But the implication is these guys hurt people and don't really care - antiheroes much like the Wild Bunch of Peckinpah's not-so-long-ago. An opening title tells us they work for ComTeg, then adds with obvious tongue in cheek "...the thought the CIA might employ such an organization for any purpose is, of course, preposterous." That's a pretty clever way of letting the audience know all bets are off.
Add to that a traditionally strong Peckinpah backup cast, including Burt Young, Gig Young, and Peckinpah regular Bo Hopkins in the plum role of a madman who can't pass up an opportunity to be shot at for $500 a day, and you only wish that the scriptwriters, including the celebrated Sterling Silliphant, tried to do something more with the story than turn it into a platform for lazy one-liners and bad chop-socky knockoffs. An attempt at injecting a dose of liberal social commentary is awkwardly shoehorned in. "You're so busy doing their dirty work, you can't tell who the bad guys are," someone tells Locken, as if either he or we need it pointed out.
Worse still are Peckinpah's clumsy direction and sluggish pacing. We're 40 minutes into the film before we get our first battle scene, a completely chaotic collection of random shots where a bunch of people we haven't even met before are seen fighting at San Francisco Airport, their battle intercut with a conversation in an office suite.
By the end of the film, what's left of the cast is having a battle inside a fleet of mothballed Victory Ships, ninjas running out in the open to be gunned down while Caan tosses off one liners that undercut any hint of real suspense. "Lay me seven-to-five, I'll take the little guy," he wisecracks just before a climatic samurai duel between two ninja warriors - from China, which we all know is the land of the Ninja. (The battle takes place in San Francisco, but surprisingly no Mounties arrive to break things up.)
Caan is much better in smaller scenes, like when Locken, recovering from some nasty injuries, is told by one of his bosses, played by a smooth Arthur Hill, that he's been "Humpty-dumped" by the organization. Caan refuses to stay down, and his recovery scenes, though momentum-killing for the movie, feature fine acting from him and Amy Heflin, Van's daughter, as a supportive nurse. Caan was one of the 1970s' best actors, and his laconic byplay with Heflin, Duvall, Hopkins, and both Youngs give "Killer Elite" real watchability.
But you don't watch "Killer Elite" thinking about that. You watch it thinking of the film that got away.
By the mid-1970s, the career of director Sam Peckinpah had basically
hit the skids. He had seen one more film of his (PAT GARRETT AND BILLY
THE KID) butchered by a studio (MGM) in 1973; then, in 1974, his most
overtly personal film, the admittedly ghoulish-sounding BRING ME THE
HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA, was roundly trashed by audiences and critics
alike. And on top of that, the excesses that had been plaguing him on
and off for years were starting to dominate his life. Yet through all
of this, he somehow managed to pull off the good when he was sober. A
case in point was the action thriller THE KILLER ELITE, released near
the end of 1975.
In this film, James Caan portrays an employee for a CIA-sponsored offshoot group called ComTeg (Communications Integrity) who, in protecting a German political figure (Helmut Dantine), is maliciously wounded by his partner (Robert Duvall) in the leg and arm. Though his superiors in ComTeg (Arthur Hill; Gig Young) tell him that those injuries are so severe that he may never be able to walk fully again, Caan vows to get back into the game, exposing himself to strenuous rehabilitation and martial arts exercises. When Hill gives him the chance, via protecting a Japanese politician (Mako) until he can be gotten out of the country, Caan immediately grabs onto it, especially with the fringe benefit of knowing Duvall has resurfaced and is gunning for Mako on his own. The whole operation turns out to be part of an internecine battle of wills inside ComTeg between their two superiors, first resulting in a fatal confrontation at the Bethlehem Steel shipyard, and then a high-energy showdown aboard a mothballed World War II vessel in Suisun Bay involving Japanese kung-fu masters.
It is easy to simply dismiss THE KILLER ELITE (which, however, shouldn't be confused with the similarly-titled, but unrelated and much more violent, 2011 film of the same name) as lesser Peckinpah, but he should still be given credit for having taken a strictly commercial property (much like his big 1972 hit THE GETAWAY), and turning it into a solid action film with some bursts of sardonic humor, plus points being made about the dirty business of the CIA at a time when the agency was being battered in the press for its foreign shenanigans and domestic spying, plus its role in covering up Watergate. He would return to this theme in his last film, 1983's THE OSTERMAN WEEKEND.
Under Peckinpah's direction, both Caan and Duvall, who had appeared together before in THE GODFATHER, do solid work as the two friends set up against one another; and Hill and Gig Young (the latter of whom made for a dispassionate killer in ALFREDO GARCIA) are equally good in their bureaucratic roles. Burt Young and Bo Hopkins do good solid turns as Caan's two partners in the protection of Mako's ambitious Oriental political figure. As is typical with Peckinpah, the action scenes are shot and edited in that characteristic Peckinpah style; and the on-location cinematography by Philip Lathrop, whose credits include 1965's THE CINCINNATI KID (from which Peckinpah was unceremoniously fired), is also superb. And finally, Jerry Fielding, working with Peckinpah one final time, comes up with another iconoclastic music score that combines jazz, dissonance, and Far Eastern music elements.
The end result may not have been "classic Peckinpah" (it is certainly less bloody than THE WILD BUNCH, STRAW DOGS, or ALFREDO GARCIA), but THE KILLER ELITE is still far superior to most of the ultra-violent action flicks that would follow in Peckinpah's wake.
I consider Peckinpah one of the big five--- Kubrick. Scorsese. Walter Hill. Eastwood.--- I've seen all his films numerous times, and this one along with Garcia stands up the best to multiple viewings. It plays like a great old album. These negative comments I've read about this flick are cuuckie talk. Every spy movie since has lifted something from this movie, as a matter of fact every action flick. Great cast, and peckinpah's wonderful laid back style are the highlights. It may seem old hat now, but try erasing the last 30 years of wannabees. Great Movie!!!
Here's a Peckinpah movie that starts out really good but falls apart in
the last third. It's a story about high-level contract killers and
mercenaries hired out in secret by the CIA. The story investigates the
friendship between Mike Locken (James Caan) and George Hansen (Robert
Duvall), two of the high-class mercenaries working to protect VIPs and
radical international diplomats.
The early character development is good, the dialog and accents are all pretty enjoyable on the ears, the camaraderie between the mercenaries is fun to watch (you don't see chemistry like this in action movies anymore!) and the action scenes -- as expected of Peckinpah -- are intense and well thought-out.
There is a considerable amount of hand-to-hand combat on display here. Some of the dojo scenes with Karate/Judo stuff are not bad, but not totally amazing either. It's cool that Peckinpah wanted to include this stuff, but why would high level secret operatives train in Gendai (modern, sportified, public, organized) Japanese martial arts? I thought that was pretty hokey.
And then we have the real problem: later in the film the bad guys are a bunch of ninjas. Ninjas, huh? I understand that the movie is kinda tongue-in-cheek and is about unrealistically tough contract killers and so forth, but the cheesy ninja costumes and the poorly choreographed fight scenes with them (not to mention the abstract and borderline offensive duel regarding "honor") instantly date this movie and make it something of a novelty.
Peckinpah had serious substance abuse problems at this point and maybe that's what causes the weird pacing. Had this movie been shorter and ended at the end of the second third with a more concise message, it would've been pretty solid. It also could've developed some of the supporting characters more than it did.
Still, there are some pretty good things to be found here. Really good action scenes, some memorable characters and dialog, and some decent commentary on corrupt power-players who run politics and business. It's just too bad everyone involved seems to be on autopilot.

My degree will be in business management with an emphasis on hospitality. The program includes an industry internship and real-world class projects, participating in local non-profit events. Students host the annual program board meeting, meeting local leaders in the hospitality industry. Students are able to attend business leadership conferences on campus, free of charge. ASUMH also has provided workstudy employment in my future field, at their conference/event/concert venue. Assignments are relevant to a real world business environment.
ASUMH is a two year college where students are treated like people instead of just numbers. All the teachers care about ensuring that the students receive a good education. Any questions or problems with schoolwork or school in general have been addressed promptly and completely. I highly recommend this college to anyone looking for a college experience where the student comes first.
I love ASU Mountain Home. The campus is so beautiful! The faculty is very helpful and supportive. I've never felt unwanted by anyone there. There are also multiple times and days to take your needed courses, so if you have a certain schedule you need to abide by, you can take classes to work around it. I wish they had more classes available, so I didn't have to transfer, but it is only a community college, so I understand. I also wish they had more dining options.

Be an Agent for Positive Change, With Robyn Stratton-Berkessel – PS044
Positive Change, Episode Introduction
Many of us come to an awareness – some sooner and some later – that we want to have a positive impact in all that we do. I share the "why", the "what" and the "how" of bringing it together to make it happen. My purpose – my "why" – is to help you become an agent for positive change, so you can have the positive impact in the world you know you're capable of. When you find you own "why" – your own calling and path – you're hugely invigorated and energized to go out to do your best work. You're able to focus your sense of purpose and your contributions both of which add deeper meaning to all you do.
This is really valuable content that I'm extremely excited to share. This is a short episode of 20 minutes.
Discovering your Voice – your Story
Being an agent for positive change comes from putting your passion out there authentically. Gaining clarity around your own story – how the threads of your personal history – all of it – the highs, the lows and the in-betweens – inform who you are and your "why". You learn from your successes and you learn from your failures. Through a well-designed process, you learn to identify when you feel most energized, and when you are most depleted. With that sense of your personal wholeness – your entire being – you find your integrity, your voice, and that's a prerequisite to being an agent for positive change.
Positive Contagion
The more you do this kind of work, the more you experience positive changes in yourself. This then is amplified, meaning you also co-create positive change with others, and it begins to spread.
People begin to feel energized, uplifted, empowered, when they focus on what they love to do, when they feel at their best, when they start to see positive results from their efforts. At work when their ideas are heard and make a difference, they experience a whole different energy from when they're just going through the motions without a sense of purpose or contribution, or they don't feel valued or appreciated. Most people want to do good, and feel valued, and appreciated and the way we do that is in relationship with others. We can't do this work alone.
Special Exclusive Offer to Listeners.
I am offering you, Positivity Strategist listeners a very special, exclusive offer that will absolutely help you be that agent for positive change. It speaks to your ""why – your sense of purpose. I am offering you strategies and tools that will move you along with great energy and you'll begin to see and feel results straight away.

VivaTech, an international event in its first edition was organized in Paris. The first two days the door of VivaTech saloon were closed at the eyes of the general public because it was reserved just for thousands of startups, investors, innovators and lecturers to give them the opportunity to varieties of discussions and exchanges of ideas over many subjects linked to modern technology.
Startups have participated in challenges in introducing theirs projects so as one of them to be chosen by the jury that is composed by women and men.Then, questions were given by the jury and also by the public.Investors were too present to select the project to invest in.The last day was opened to the public at its large to have a look and ideas about what happens at the world of innovation in technology.
The basis of technology actually depends on what is digital and in it we simplify life, make it easy and the costs of companies will be reduced definitely.what I have noticed during three days at the VivaTech saloon is that the English language was mostly used and rarely that I saw Someone speaking French language.The majority have come from English speaking countries and even people from other countries no speaking English were obliged to speak English.So, English was the language that reduces the gaps of communication between the representatives and participants of the countries of the world.On the other way, English is the language of technology because as I think the first innovations was having their beginnings from English and the majority of developed countries are those that speak English.This is the reality and no one can deny it.
Besides giving a great importance to startups, VivaTech saloon has seen the presence of two worlds at the same time, the world of fiction and the world of reality.
With high innovation in the instrument of technology, some innovations help the one to live and venture in the world of fiction by the mind and by what the mind sees throught out the eyes and throught out the instrument he uses.His body daesnot leave the world of reality he is living in but stick to it; it is just the instrument that stands as a bridge to this world of fiction and tries to bring you its mirror by transmitting different images to the mind who is the engine that interprets them and guides all member of human body to respond and to move.The player in the game is carried out by imagination to the world of fiction to let his body living a reality which daes not really exist at all.It is just a game that gives enjoyment and pleasure for the mind to relax from this the world of reality at one hand and in the other hand it shows that the mind is capable to create and to innovate things that were not before believable.
When we return to reality after fiction, we see that the mind has created for human being the automatic and electric car.It is a car that daes not need a driver since it is an intelligent car capable of carrying woman, man and children without the need to drive it.A man carried by automatic car has just to sit and why not to drink coffee while the car is doing the role to take him easily to his destination with security and comfort.
Ideas about digital train were given and a model about it was shown during the three days of exhibition of the modern innovations in the world of technology.
At the last day, the doors were opened to the public and among visitors families accompanied by children.These later have find their personalty in participating and doing many things and especially were attracted by PlayStation that hold very attracting games.They were not ordinnary games but games that they play and live really in.
A model of civic drone that cost between 30 000 euros and 50 000 euros was present at the saloon of VivaTech.The exhibitor told us that they will creat cars that fly or flying cars in about 7 years.
The electronic book which is described as without end is consisted of all what comes to your mind as wrintings, pictures, videos....
It is not just like bookstore in one book but more than that.
It may stand as archive ....
Startups and the modern technology do not have to forget human and human inside because in loosing what is human they loose what is more important than achievements.
Here are some videos or views that my camera caught during my presence at VivaTech saloon organized in Paris from 30 june to 2 july 2016:

C Drive Connected to Motherboard SATA Connector 3 Instead of 0.
Hi...my Intel SSD which is my OS-C drive is connected to the motherboard SATA connector designated as SATA connector 3. On initial install of W7 I had a problem where the MBR was installed on my internal N drive (connected to motherboard SATA connector 0 ) instead of on same drive as OS.
I have sorted out the problem some time ago so the MBR was migrated to the same drive as the C drive. That problem sorted out.
What I need to know is are they any problems/consequences with my OS-C drive being on motherboard SATA connector designated as SATA connector 3 rather than in the traditional position of using SATA connector 0 on motherboard for C drive ?
Also if I swap them around so C on 0 & N on 3 on motherboard; will this cause any problems, and will the PC boot up as normal with C being disk0 and N being disk3 within the Computer Mgt Window ?
Should point out PC is running fine without any obvious problems.
Thanks in advance.... Gary

It makes no difference whatsoever. Upon booting, when the POST has completed, providing that you have a bootable OS present, the system will boot from that disk regardless of which motherboard connector it is attached to (or if it is attached to an expansion card, like mine is). On one of my older systems, I couldn't use ports 0 and 1 because they were obscured by my graphics card. There was no problem in booting with the drive attached to one of the other ports.

C Drive Connected to Motherboard SATA Connector 3 Instead of 0.
My SATA connector designated connector position number 0 on motherboard is a SATA3 device connector, whereas SATA connector designated connector position number 3 on motherboard is a SATA2 device connector. SATA3 C-OS drive is currently on this connector 3 on motherboard.
Does anybody think that this would matter as my C-OS drive is latest Intel SSD and very fast (SATA3 device) BUT connected to a SATA2 type motherboard connector ? My understanding is that SATA3 devices have data transfer faster than SATA2 devices.
Various forums I have been to say you would not see any difference in data transfer
speeds. Am wondering if I will see any performance difference switching the C-OS drive (SATA3 device) to a matching SATA3 motherboard connector...or will it matter not; so leave it as it is on a SATA2 device connector?
Any ideas anybody?

Windows 7 Home Premium 32-Bit - Build 7600 SP1
It won't make any difference. I just upgraded my system a couple weeks ago. I put my SSD on the Sata 3 port and the my 2 HDD on Sata 2. As it turned out this made my SSD be on connector 3. It does not make any difference. If you want to switch the cables, you can do that with no problem. I would just leave things as they are.

thanx bigmck and dwarf for your help
thanx bigmck and dwarf for your help...sounds like you concur with various forums
that say much the same thing: that being there is no practical speed difference whether my SATA3 SSD is connected to a SATA3 or 2 connector on motherboard.

Hi all,The older CP2 used to read .C01 files even in the version for Mac. In the newest version it does not work anymore. Any suggestions? (The windows version reads C=1 files fine).Thank you.Giuseppe
Can you give us some more information? The version that used to work for you, the version you're attempting to use now, an uploaded (either directly here or somewhere like Dropbox, GoogleDrive, etc) example file, and what precisely isn't working about it (not loading? not giving you any metadata at all? giving you incorrect metadata?) would be helpful for diagnosis.
Dear Beth,
thank you for your reply. I attach a screen shot of the error message and one C01 file for you to test. I am using the 2.2.0 version on a brand new iMac (MacOS Sierra 10.12.3). Previously, the old CP1 was able to handle the C01 files. I am not sure exaclty which version it was but I think the last one before the 2.0.
My colleague here at the University of helsinki is telling me that in the windows machines the CP2.2.0 can handle the C01 files just fine.
Hope this helps, I really would need to use CP again
Giuseppe Balistreri
Hey, it doesn't look like the C01 attachment went through. Can you try again, and if not maybe try using dropbox/google drive etc?Thanks!
Hi Beth,
the image is definitely there but the forum software (or the chrome browser?) doesn't know how to display it.
Here's the same image as a PNG:
Kind regards,Egor
Hi, Sorry, I was unclear- I had asked you to upload a .C01 image so that we could troubleshoot with it on our end on why it couldn't open- is that something you'd be able to do? Thanks.
not the original poster, but I have a vested interest in this.
I found some C01 files here: https://github.com/jni/cellom2tif/tree/master/test-data but I haven't tested them. If I remember, you want the *d[0-2].C01 files, not the *o1.C01 as these contain an overlay of the cell outlines determined by the VTI software.
If these aren't good, I will ask my colleagues if I can upload some of their files.
Dear all,
Sorry for my delay. It appeared that the problem was not with the Cellprofiler but with the CO1 files that during export got somehow corrupted. This had not come into my mind earlier but after testing everything I decided to take the files again from the machine connected to the microscope. Now everything works again. Cellprofiler2 can analyze the .C01 files just fine.
Thank you for your help.
Best Regards,

Fridge Brilliance
- In Circus of the Damned, a giant snake kills its charmer and goes berserk. This event remains unexplained... but later we learn that the Big Bad of the novel has mystical powers over snakes.
- Anita's issues with women basically might come from a combination of the Testosterone Poisoning environment of law enforcement in Saint Louis (as displayed in the books) and her own Abusive Parents The Unfavorite relationship with her stepmother. Later, we learn Anita is Bi the Way and possibly engaged in a serious case of repression (at least at first). The Ardeur and its effect in reducing the men around her into sexual tools can't help her relationships either.
- Laurel K. Hamilton all but comes out in describing Anita as a Sociopathic Hero, which goes a long way of explaining why her narration is hostile to just about everyone.

I was asked to do a photocall recently for a fantastic event that is taking place on Valentines night to raise funds for Turn2me and The Irish Heart Foundation. Turn2me is a charity which was set up by Oisin and Diarmuid Scollard who lost their brother Cormac to suicide in 2003. Turn2me.org is an online mental health community providing peer and professional support to people in distress. Trained moderators and counsellors provide free online forum and group supports as well as 1 to 1 counselling services for people suffering from all varieties of mental illness such as depression and anxiety and aims to prevent suicide whenever and wherever possible. It is a cause that is very close to my heart as I have friends and family that have been affected by both suicide and depression. Also in these times it is especially prevalent as people are finding it harder and harder to cope.
Here is the information about the event and if you would like to take part, visit www.give2go.ie and register now.
Turn2Me.org and The Irish Heart Foundation's Nearly Naked Run
Fancy doing something a little bit different this Valentine's Day? Turn2me.org and The Irish Heart Foundation are daring you to bare all (or even just a little bit!) on their 500 metre heart shaped track on the beach on Sandymount Strand from 7-8pm on the 14th Feb. Whatever you wear (or don't wear) it's all for a great cause.
Valentines night is usually the night to wine and dine your loved one, however many couples choose to stay in on Valentine's night rather than face packed restaurants of cooing couples. So if you are one of those couples who would rather avoid an evening of culinary coupledom or if you're single here is your alternative option.
Oisin Scollard, Founder of turn2me.org which is an online mental health community providing peer and professional support to people in distress said "The short love heart distance takes only three minutes so anyone and everyone can take part and it can be walked, sprinted or crawled. Everyone will be encouraged to remove as much clothing as they feel comfortable with. Nudity IS encouraged and we will have a body painter on site for the brave nudies! We will also have hot drinks and blankets at the finish line for all participants".
Everyone interested in taking place must register with a deposit of €10 at www.give2go.ie and must also raise an additional €20 to take part. All money raised will be divided evenly between The Irish Heart Foundation and Turn2me.org.
"Turn2me will actively support lives, build lives and save lives at the times people need us most. The charity's vision for the future is to create a world where mental health issues are acknowledged and accepted. Where every person in distress will feel confident to openly access the support services they need, safe in the knowledge that attitudes have changed based on a communal understanding and willingness to support each other."
The Irish Heart Foundation thought this unique fundraiser was a fun fit for their charity. Aidan Stacey, Head of Fundraising at the Irish Heart Foundation said: "At the IHF we encourage young and old to get active for the good of their hearts and it is especially fitting to invite everyone to put their hearts into a fun run on Valentine's evening. Normally our supporters wear their heart on their sleeve by donning our red t-shirts… but on this occasion, it's all about baring not wearing!".
Aidan continued "Bare Your Soul is not only a great opportunity to have the craic and get your heart pumping, it will also raise vital funds for two great causes. Remember every goose-bumpy step you take will raise money to support our work across research, health promotion, resuscitation training and patient support, all of which help us prevent more people developing heart disease and stroke, the biggest cause of death in Ireland."
Registration is from 6pm-7pm with the first run taking place at 7pm and every 3 mins after that until 7.57pm.
I hope you can make it!
Lots of love,
Model: Cristíona Aston
Photographer: Leon Farrell

Two female suicide bombers detonated their explosives in a busy market in the northeast of the country.
Nigeria's army says two female suicide bombers blew themselves up at a market in northeast Nigeria's Madagali town, killing at least 56 people and wounding dozens others.
Boko Haram is blamed for Friday's attack on the edge of the their Sambisa Forest stronghold, which Nigeria's army has been bombing ahead of ground assaults.
Yusuf Mohammed, chairman of the local district government, said the bombings left 56 people dead and wounded 57.
Since the military dislodged the extremists from towns and villages this year, the group have resorted to attacking softer targets.
Blast survivor Ahmadu Gulak said the two explosions struck simultaneously at opposite ends of a grain and vegetable market.
The seven-year Boko Haram uprising has killed more than 20,000 people, created 2.6 million refugees and triggered a massive humanitarian crisis.
TRT World's correspondent Fidelis Mbah reports.

Accounting Policy Choices: Some Expirical Evidence
There is substantial differences in the objectives and basis for internal, external and tax reporting. This study looks into how far companies use different accounting policies for different uses. Also an attempt is made to empirically verify whether tax accounting governs the policies for other reporting also. Information on the accounting policies of companies with respect to a few items is collected and analysed to find the differences in policies for different reporting purposes.

I have had mixed results with Vegan Lipsticks in the past, getting the formula right does seem to be something of an art form, but when they are done well it's a major plus.
I get quite a few requests for vegan brands and products, I know it is something that interests many of you which is why I started my Vegan Brands list which is being continuously updated. For me Tropic Skincare has been one of the best discoveries of 2017, I am absolutely loving every product I have tried so far (skincare reviews on their way!) and so I knew if anyone could master a good vegan lipstick, they could.
The colour click lipstick has some very nice packaging, you push the bottom of the bullet to release the lipstick for a satisfying "click" sound. The metallic part of the packaging looks phenomenal, and the black case looks sleek with the Tropic logo. There are seven shades in total, a good mix of peaches, nudes and deeper colours.
You get a good amount of moisturising oils in this lipstick, Camellia, Avocado and Shea as well as coconut. Instead of beeswax a vegan wax is used to get the lipstick to become (and stay) solid. Unlike other vegan lipsticks I don't feel like I have treat this one with kid gloves, I apply straight from the bullet and it stands up in performance to a lipstick using beeswax without a problem.

The 29 year old attacking midfielder spent 7 years at National League South side Oxford City after starting his career at Banbury United.
He made over 300 appearances, was involved in two promotion campaigns and was also club captain.
He featured in pre-season friendlies against Racing Club Warwick and Birmingham City before signing in July 2016. He is an experienced head who will help bring balance to the team.
Darren has all the attributes required and chipped in with his fair share of goals while at Oxford, so will provide another outlet to boost the goals scored column this season.

Germans don't do dates. Either they magically fall in love at school or their workplace, or – standard procedure – they get wasted, randomly hook up and simply end up staying together for a long, long time.
I like dating culture, though. Personally I think it's one of the most exciting (read: catastrophic) ways of getting to know someone. First of all, the idea itself will tell you something about the other person (mainly how boring they are versus how much effort they put into it). Second, I hate being stuck in a bar / restaurant loop, like, if you don't have a similar circle of friends or can't naturally do activities together, then you're face-off all the time. BORING. And we're not ready yet for disgusting Netflix/Sushi in bed combos. What now?
I've thought of a couple of things that are always fun to do and will spice up your routine. Most importantly, they aren't necessarily romantic. So if you want to treat a good friend to a cool birthday, or if you have visitors from abroad that don't want to do typical sightseeing stuff, some of these points on the list might be an option. It's more fun if you're getting laid afterwards though.
1. The KaDeWe Experience
Everybody loves the KaDeWe, but even more so when you combine a luxurious field trip with a Schnitzeljagd. Because KaDeWe is big and expensive, I usually restrict my game to the food court. The mission is to find something (below 10 Euro) that you think the other person will enjoy or that describes their character. You can go crazy here. And if you don't know the person very well yet (and you're scared to be a complete flop), save this particular idea for a second or third date. Someone once bought me 7 Euro Tuna, and I'm not sure what that says about me.
To finish off with a bang, treat yourselves to amazing seafood, some oysters & champagne (or New Burger, they're… new) and a Spritz. You'd think this is a lame idea, but if the sky is clear, you'll have an almost perfect view of the sunset as well.
2. The Boring Bootsfahrt
There's a three hour (!) long boat trip from Jannowitzbrücke that goes on the Spree and the Kanal.
Look. I am not a fan of those all-tourist activities, but this is perfect if your mind is blank and/or if you're hungover. You'll probably still need to impress with your personality, but at the same time, those trips can a) get you talking b) have more to offer than sitting in a café and c) if your date doesn't know the city, you'll also have the chance to explain why the Landwehrkanal smells like dogshit between Kreuzberg and Mitte. Because those boats have proper restaurant service, you will also delightfully get wasted. Negative points: you're stuck with your date for 3 hours and jumping into the Spree is not an option.
3. The Spielhalle Gentrification Starter Pack
You know those creepy little Casinos on every corner of the city? Yup, you're going there. Each one of you gets 10-20 Euro to go crazy with. Don't use the Slot Machines, this is not Las Vegas. You will not figure out how to play them (or maybe you're smarter than me) and lose everything immediately. I usually stick with Roulette. This is real fun: first of all, you get to hang out with weird people who spend their whole lives in these money swallowing boxes. But never underestimate the fun of gambling! Make sure to set your limit ahead of time. You can also make this a competition – the one who loses his money first has to (insert something kinky). It can be a little bit of a dare for both parties if you've never been in one of those Spielhallen, and you can stick with the theme afterwards if you go to a creepy little corner Kneipe to drink a Herrengedeck and play cards or watch Hertha losing on a big screen. Don't forget to treat your babe to some nasty street food, because that's all you can afford now.
(On a side note: my favorite is the Spielbank Hasenheide. Since it's a state-legislated Casino, it also has the better winning opportunities. Please don't take your date out to the ghettoest casino you can find, I mean, I'm no expert on this, but this is supposed to be funny and not dangerous… or addictive).
4. The Arcade Airhockey Tournament
I remember, back when I was young, almost every big city would have a proper American Arcade hall. Entire mall levels were dedicated to computer games like Street Fighter or, later, Dance Dance Revolution. Arcade Gaming was a big thing, and my siblings and I would spend most of our afternoons in the summer break wasting our money (all in all probably 7,40 €) in there. I think the highlight of our Arcade life experience was when our parents took us to the States and we discovered Chuck-E-Cheese. Best time of my life.
Anyway, so maybe that's just my personal nostalgic 90's empathy, but I just can't think of a person who wouldn't enjoy arcading. The bowling place on Hermannplatz have an Airhockey table and a couple of other games. And we all know that Airhockey is the best game. You can easily spend half an hour playing against each other. Ignore the Bowling around you. Get drunk. Get your date drunk. Then SMASH them with your Airhockey skills.
(Alternatively, a Kicker/Fussball tournament is also a good idea, UNLESS YOU'RE A REALLY, REALLY COMPETITIVE GUY, THIS COULD GO WRONG FOR YOU. )
5. The Cheapskate Symphony
You're sophisticated, smart and culturally invested in this city, but you can't afford tickets to the theatre/opera/concert because your intellectual work is economically stagnating? You feel like a full-blast rave on the first date could be too much (and Coke isn't free either, you know)? Here's a perfect plan for an ambitious date without breaking your meager budget:
1) Find any vernissage in Mitte. There's always one with free drinks. If you can find more than one or two in the same area, even better. Vernissage hopping is great for seeing your date interact with people, as well as finding out if they're willing to snatch a bottle while you're distracting the curator. Don't worry about the art, just pretend you're here because you just have to be. If you can't find a vernissage, look for a book launch, a shop opening, a pop-up Späti. I'm pretty sure I could find a free-drinks-event for every day of the week.
2) Go to the Salon Christophori. Small, intimate environment of classical piano and reading performances. You'll have to sign up before, but then: Free concert. Not only can you basically let someone else do all the emotional work for you, the whole experience is very unique to Berlin. And it's free. (Alternatively, try the lunch concerts of the Philharmonie Berlin. Every Tuesday at 1 PM – for free.)
It's even more fun to be a cheapskate if your date knows about your tight budget. You can practically make it your little adventure to spend a whole day with minimum money but maximum output. This will prepare you for the rest of your lives together. At this point, I honestly think my relationship advice should be sold in couple's therapy.
6. The Schlauchbootsfahrt
If your first boat trip went well, you might want to raise the stakes and get closer to your date. Get the smallest Schlauchboot you can find, bring a sixpack or some ganja, some snacks (dry Ramen chips what's UP), wait for the sun to come out, throw yourselves into the Kanal and let the magic happen while drifting away slowly from the city. I have no idea how you get back, you're on your own now.
7. The 36 Questions
If you want to get right to the point, play the Game of 36 Questions. These questions are built and phrased in such a way that answering them honestly will tell you whether you will fall in love or not. I tried it once and it didn't work, but this is the perfect idea for awkward Tinder dates. It can be your personal pub quiz, but do it in one of those slow-sipping high class bars in Charlottenburg (Rum Trader, Fasanen 47) or Schwarze Traube in Kreuzberg. This will elevate the experience beyond your typical bar night.
Here are the 36 questions, but I'm sure there's an app for that.

Nice Diamond Band for the Money
My husband purchased this to replace a diamond band I lost (my bad!) It is just fine. The stones are smaller than I thought they would be (smaller than the diamonds in the band i lost), but they sparkle and seem to be decent quality (although I haven't looked through a loup at it- nothing worrisome with the naked eye!) A great ring for the money-bang for the buck..

Product Description
This is a feminine art doll or face cabochon which I created from Polymer Clay using my unique colouring process.
It won't wash or rub off and is permanently adhered to the clay. Coated with a glossy finish.
The colour is ceramic like blue purple or dark lilac with green and sage highlights on a pearlescent lilac base.
Measures 30mm tall x 27mm wide.
The back of the cabochon is flat with a texture that makes it easy for gluing.
Use in bead embroidery, for Art dolls, for jewelry, in scrapbooking or anything you can think of.
If you have a design you want translated...I do custom work for both polymer clay as well as for Silkscreens. If you have a black and white drawing ready, message me!
For Tutorial purchases, please download them within 7 days or the link/s won't work and then I have to email you the files. I don't mind doing that but it might take me a day or two to get to your message. So much to do! :D

When Bonnie is faced with her secret lover, dead on the floor of his apartment, her first panicky thought is to cover it up - hide the body, straighten the scene, remove every trace of her presence. But as any thriller fan knows, the truth will out.
In this 12th novel, best seller Nicci French (the husband-wife team of Sean French and Nicci Gerard) plays an unforgettable game of cat and mouse with the listener, telling an intricate story with letter-perfect timing and French's trademark deeply drawn characterizations.
"Told in a tantalizing series of flashbacks, the narrative draws you into the inner world of the protagonist, a tough cookie who nevertheless endures a relationship that's so abusive the reader is never quite sure that she did not, in fact, snap. French...takes the time to tease out individual characters to a degree seldom seen in crime fiction, saving the final plot twist for the last page." (Publishers Weekly)

Lost me at "JO-ah-kim"
No, and really, I just could not get past the 'JO-ah-kim' thing, so I was distracted. Also, for the first chapter or so, the narrator thought she was presenting a Shakespearean tragedy.
There is not one likable character here for me; I just couldn't make myself care.
See above: JO-ah-kim, Shakespeare,..
I will give the Nicci French duo one more try; I first listened to The Memory Game, which I found engaging and intriguing- enough so that, when it was done, I immediately went back in to the NF listings and chose the opener for the 'days of the week' series, Blue Monday. Well,.. [spoiler alert]..and evil twin!?! Serious? Some really obnoxious voice characterizations, also. So, I jumped out of the series and tried this one- which I cannot continue, for reasons given. Not hopeful.
- Deborah
Refines relentless tedium!
Awful - only surprise is that I finished listening!

Not great on characters, enunciation sometimes too rapid. She really was not the problem. The plotless pointless aimless endless book was!
Wonder if I can still receive an Audible credit?

Assurance for taking momtasone older than 2 months
Patient : I've got a really bad cold, a throbbing headache and slight temperature. Yesterday night my nose blocked completely and I had to breathe through my mouth but I felt myself suffocating during the night. It felt like i was gong to die.I thought it would be better today as my colds don't normally last for that long but it looks like i'm in for another rough night. I've got Mometasone Furoate that has been opened for more than two months and I was thinking of taking it as it has been stored in a clean place and I doubt it has contaminated any dust nor infection. The nasal spray my GP prescribed me for sinusitis congestions has run out. is it dangerous to take Mometasone?

Hillary Clinton's Benghazi emails released by US State Department
The US State Department has released its first round of emails from Hillary Clinton's time as Secretary of State, offering a new look at her handling of the attacks on the US consulate in Benghazi.
CNN said the approximately 300 emails, about 850 pages, are part of the 30,000 that she turned over to State from her private email server, which she used almost exclusively to conduct both private and public business during her time at State.
"The emails we release today do not change the essential facts or our understanding of the events before, during, or after the attacks," the State Department tweeted shortly after the announcement.
The emails were selected and vetted by Clinton's own lawyers.
Rep. Trey Gowdy, who chairs the House Benghazi panel, said: "To assume a self-selected public record is complete, when no one with a duty or responsibility to the public had the ability to take part in the selection, requires a leap in logic no impartial reviewer should be required to make and strains credibility."

Christmas is all about food and family! Don't get caught up preparing food and miss out on precious family time. Use this checklist to help you host a flawless Christmas dinner.
On your dinner guest list, make a note of something you can ask each of them to bring. Some people bring completed dishes; others contribute snacks, beverages, paper plates and cups, folding chairs, flower arrangements… Use your imagination. Tap into helpful friends and family.
Sit down with a list of dishes other people are bringing and fill in the blanks. Have all your recipes in front of you to consolidate your grocery list—it's a pain to run to the store at the last moment because you ran out of sugar. Shop at least two days in advance to reduce stress during preparation time.
Next, break each recipe into detail to complete pre-preparation steps. Some foods can be made days in advance and reheated, and others require chilling before serving. Make a step-by-step plan, working backwards from Christmas dinner to the first steps of preparation. Even steps as simple as chopping onions and garlic can smooth out the big push on Christmas day or eve.
Don't forget to ask about special diets. Some of your guests may have allergies so it's nice to accommodate them alongside the traditional Christmas dinner fare. Create a vegetarian casserole. Bake gluten-free pumpkin pies (it's the same pie with a gluten-free crumb crust). Keep close track of nuts and leave them out. All-foods guests won't notice the changes and allergic guests will appreciate the thoughtfulness.
Ask for help throughout the preparation process. Get the house decluttered, cleaned and decorated with the help of overnight guests or close-by relatives. If your shopping list is especially big, perhaps some people would be willing to kick in $20 to help with costs. Engage more-organized people to help with planning, and let others handle at least some of the preparation.
So, to sum up:
Ask each guest (or family) to bring something.
Make a highly detailed shopping list and shop at least two days in advance.
Break each recipe into steps and complete as many as possible.
Accommodate special diets if you can—especially allergies.
Ask for help!

Olympic skeleton champion Lizzy Yarnold, who trains at the University of Bath, has been awarded an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours list.
Yarnold, 25, won her gold medal during her stunning skeleton performances at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games in February.
She said: "It is such an amazing honour to be awarded an MBE – I never expected it – it is a weird feeling when you open the envelope from Buckingham Palace and read that you have been given one."
"I feel so privileged and want to thank all those who helped me win in Sochi – my friends, family, coaches, support team and all those people who cheered me on from the UK – without their support none of this would have been possible so thanks so much."
A number of Bath residents were also honoured in the lists, published yesterday evening.
These include Henry Brown, the former chairman of the Federation of Bath Residents' Associations (FoBRA) who stepped down from the post in May. He was awarded a British Empire Medal for his services to the community.
Keith Woodley was given an OBE for services to Higher Education, Stephen Egan receives a CBE and Jacqueline Buffton, who is the Vice Chair of Governors at the City of Bath College was given an MBE.
Patrick Woodroffe, a lighting designer, was also awarded an OBE for his services to the Arts.
Andrew Brownsword, who was previously involved with Bath Rugby, receives a CBE for charitable services to the Arts, Heritage and Health in Bath and South West England.

I arrived at Brookside at 9am to find only Jerry and Joseph waiting. After briefly wondering where everyone else was, we set off west out of Cambridge along the Coton Path to Coton and Madingley.
The weather was cloudy, and a steady breeze from the south meant that the temperature was warm rather than hot.
We continued to Dry Drayton and then Hardwick, where Joseph turned for home, leaving Jerry and I to continue on to St Neots. We took a northerly route via Elsworth, Yelling and Toseland to St Neots, where we stopped for coffee at the Ambience Cafe in the Riverside Park at about 11.15pm.
As I rode up to the cafe I was surprised to find ten CTC members sitting at a table outside, drinking coffee. So this is where everyone was!
After coffee I returned back to Cambridge with Jerry, leaving most of the remaining riders to carry on to lunch in Harold Country Park north of Bedford.
Jerry and I took a more southerly route back to Cambridge: essentially the B1046 all the way, except for a diversion via Caxton. In Abbotsley we discovered the "Scarecrow Festival", with ingeniously-dressed straw figures in front gardens all over the village.
I was back in Cambridge by about 1.20pm, having cycled about 48 miles.

This website is a fraud. They take the money from your account at a given advertised flight and then send an email to say that they can't confirm the flight for 24 hours. When they finally come back to you, they give you a cost of £150 or more over the price that you agreed to pay, then it is impossible to go onto their website to do anything to cancel. They need to be investigated!!
