Ladies and gents, foodies and friends,
It is with my delight to (FINALLY) post the following:Yiiiieeeeeeaaaahhhh, I got my .com up! :D
OOTD: Ready for ramen
Ramen Ya Road Trip
And the hunt for ramen continues! I'm still haunted by that wondrous journey to Ramen Kan in Sydney, I can't help but make a day out of visiting ramen shops!
We took the first Saturday of our mid-semester break as opportunity to head into the city to check out Ramen Ya, a restaurant I'd read many a review about online. A pretty debatable restaurant, with many claiming it to be the best ramen in Melbourne and others left wondering what the fuss is all about! Naturally, I had to investigate!

Shyun in Carnegie will definitely keep you coming back!
When Shiv sent me the link to Shyun, there wasn't a lick of hesitation in wanting to check it out. He told me he used to come here a handful of times every week, and that is more than enough to get me interested!
Shyun is a little Japanese restaurant in Carnegie that aims to maintain the motto "Delicious, Affordable and Fast". They pride themselves in top handmade quality, freshness (all sashimi sliced upon ordering), and a genuinely friendly staff. I can definitely back them up on that!

PappaRich, a satisfying hit of Asian persuasion!
Well hello there, you delightfully grubby mélange of a spoonful! How'd you like to take a ride down my oesophagus and sit yourself in my tummy? *burp*
I'd had Asian food absolutely stuck in my head for the past few days, so this was the perfect opportunity to try out PappaRich. They offer "Malaysian delights", and since the lovely Julia is Malaysian, I was definitely going to take advantage of having her expertise in the cuisine by my side!

Geisha Modern Japanese Cuisine
One Sunday many moons ago, my family and I decided to explore one of the latest to set up shop in the new Bonifacio High Street extension.
I was drawn to Geisha for two reasons; Japanese cuisine, and their pride in having a separate vegetarian menu on offer. In general, I find it quite hard to find above-par vegetarian options in Manila that aren't haphazard side dishes, so this definitely caught my interest.

MART 130, Hello Brunch!
Brunch. May I count the petals on the floor; I love you, I love you not, I love you, I love you not...
I love you. Brunch, I do.
It's a tram stop in Albert Park that has been converted into a brunch cafe. It operates only during the breakfast-brunch-lunch period of the day. Cash only too, just the cherry atop it all.
Mismatched chairs, rickety wooden tables in all different sizes, seating overlooking both the front onto the railway and the back onto... Whatever is in the back. What is quaint? This, my friends. This little tram stop come cafe is it.

The Oklahoma City Thunder will get their first look playing against Kevin Martin tonight on the road vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Martin averaged 14.0 points per game for the Thunder last season while shooting 42.6 percent from behind the three-point line.
With Russell Westbrook missing the first few weeks of the season, the Thunder suddenly appear to be somewhat of a one-man show, with two glaring holes of production that need to be replaced from a year ago.
While Westbrook will return soon, the Thunder are relying on replacing Martin by committee. This is something that some don't think will be achievable.
I've written before that I don't think the Thunder will ultimately miss Martin that much. It was so clear he was going to be a no-show in the playoffs against tougher defense and that's exactly what happened last season. OKC is better off developing some of its young players, who are better athletes and could blossom into guys who can compete at a playoff level, instead of relying on gimmicks like Martin.
The Thunder are missing Martin right now though, and while that might not seem very important, a win is a win and in a tight Western Conference, the Thunder do want to finish as high in the standings as possible.
In the season-opener, Kevin Durant scored 42 points while only two others reached double figure scoring (Ibaka and Jackson). If Martin were still around, the Thunder definitely could be relying on him at this point in the season to pick up some of that scoring slack.
OKC only totaled nine assists vs. Utah as well. While Martin has never been someone to rack up the assists, his spot-up shooting ability helps overall to space the floor and make for better flow offensively. Outside shooting is another one of the big concerns for the Thunder heading into this season.
The Thunder won 60 regular season games last year, and Martin was a big part of that. I'm not sure OKC will have as good of a chance to repeat that many wins this season, and Martin's absence is a big reason why.
I still stand by what I wrote earlier this summer. Missing Martin will hurt the regular season, but in the long run help the Thunder become a team that will be better suited for the playoffs. Maybe Lamb will struggle to shoot consistently all season, but he has the physical tools to be a much better defender than Martin, and more versatile scorer. No Martin will give Jackson more opportunities to grow as well, and Adams and Jones.
The Thunder are back to a stage where they will experience growing pains. But that's a good thing. Martin may very well torch the Thunder tonight and make them think twice about not pushing harder to keep him. But I guarantee you one thing, no one will be worrying too much about Martin come playoff time.

disable Classic Explorer
I've got Classic Explorer ver 2.8.3 installed on Windows 7 64bit.
Is there a way to disable it temporarily without uninstalling the app?
I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem I have where when I click on the start menu, then search "For Files or Folders" (with the Classic Start Menu ver 2.8.3), then nothing happens.
Normally the search box would appear, but there is a quick flash like something is happening, but no search window.
I have turned off Classic Start menu, but have the same problem.
This happened shortly after installing google desktop and the sidebar gadgets. I disabled google search, because I like Window's better, but now it does not work.
I have turned Windows search off/on in services, and also indexing off/on.

It turned out to be the Google Desktop issue and nothing to do with Classic Start menu or Classic Explorerer. (Classic Start, enabling xp type menus for program shortcuts is the perfect alternative for windows 7 inflexible start menu)
Anyway, I uninstalled Google Desktop and with a reboot, search for Files or Folders brings up the window for search again.
When I reinstalled it, and through preferences effectively disabled google search, I got the same problem with windows search for files or folders again.
I wish I could have the desktop gadgets/sidebar without the google search. One nice gadget is the radio station, where you can load in your own URL's for streaming, and one click starts music. Lots of others right there as well and the entire sidebar hides until you drag your mouse to the corner of the screen.
Google shut down their google groups help forum for desktop, which is not a good sign.
AFAIK, there is nothing comparable to google sidebar gadgets. Windows gadgets are these big icons which are not re-sizable, don't dock, no opacity, etc.

Please do not ask Classic Shell questions in this forum. I don't come here very often and I will most likely miss your question.
The right place for questions is the source forge forum - SourceForge.net: Classic Shell: Topics for Help
You are much more likely to get a response there.
To answer the original question - most Classic Explorer features can be disabled from the settings, especially in the new version 2.9.0.
If you still suspect Classic Explorer is causing problems, you can completely disable it using these commands: "regsvr32 /u ClassicExplorer32.dll" and "regsvr32 /u ClassicExplorer64.dll". You must be an admin and you must be in the Classic Shell folder. Log off after that to complete the process.
To enable it back, repeat the commands but without the "/u" switch.

I like how it's not "we can compete on price", or "we can offer a better service". I mean those would be obvious lies, but still, that they don't even bother to try and promote their own services is pretty damning.
Disruption is a biatch. You have to dismiss, because it's light years better--until it really starts hurting. Then you pay off your local congress or legislature to erect artificial barriers.In my area if you pay more than $100 for a 3-play you are a sucker. TWC just threw me a deal for $89 for a year, a free home DVR and 3 months of pay channels. Of course we have robust competition and I have FIOS. My brother who lives in a TWC-only area pays $160 for the same gig minus the whole home DVR, it would be $200/mo.TRUE competition in open markets is better for everyone...Of course the weak companies die, but that is what should happen, not kept afloat by government regulation and protection.I imagine if Google said Baltimore, Buffalo, Boston..I'm here Verizon wouldn't take a dump... I guess VZ doesn't like B's....
I think she's saying Google is providing service at a loss. Of course the first location will cost more as they learn the business. It's a good question for Google. If they can't break even, it makes no sense to expand.They only need to break even, to drive down competitor prices and get more people online, viewing ads.
Yeah, they don't really care about the product at all, just their profits. TW could probably roll out 100/15 for half the cost of Google Fiber, but since there is no pressure they are happy to pile up the money. Now that DSL is giving up in most areas they're actually more likely to degrade service. Rolling back to 5mb/s is probably too shocking and might get government attention, but metering could be a great opportunity

Once again, the Seattle Seahawks have been unable to sign their first draft pick. And again, their largest investment of the offseason will report to training camp late.
Last year, Aaron Curry reported to training camp eight days late. Curry, like Okung, was penciled in as an immediate starter following his top-ten selection in the NFL draft.
And like Okung, Curry's selection in the first round couldn't have been at a worse position.
Following Curry's selection at fourth overall, the New York Jets picked quarterback Mark Sanchez. In June of 2009, Sanchez agreed to a five-year deal worth around $50.5 million with $28 million in guarantees.
Because Curry was drafted ahead of Sanchez, his representatives thought it would be appropriate for him to receive a larger contract.
Quarterbacks, however, always make more money than other positions on the football field. Sanchez received a larger contract than Tyson Jackson, the third overall pick last season. Matt Ryan of Atlanta signed the largest rookie contract of any player in 2008 despite being chosen third overall.
Sanchez was selected one spot after Aaron Curry, which created a dilemma for both sides during negotiations. A perfect storm led to Curry's absence.
This season, the Seattle Seahawks face a similar dilemma with rookie Russell Okung.
Prior to the Seahawks selecting Okung, the Kansas City Chiefs selected Eric Berry fifth overall. Berry recently signed a six-year, $60 million deal that includes $34 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid safety in NFL history.
Not bad for a rookie who has never played a down in the league, huh? Okung's representatives want more.
Despite being chosen one spot later than Berry, Okung wants more compensation. Peter Schaffer, Okung's agent, is probably thinking that a premier, franchise left tackle should always earn more than a defensive back.
In most cases, he is correct. But the Seattle Seahawks are unlikely to budge and would prefer a slotted salary (Okung earns more than players picked after him but less than those picked before).
In addition to putting a premium on particular positions, there is also a problem with contract length.
Just like the perfect storm that led to Curry's absence, Okung's situation seems to be unusually coincidental.
Three of the five players picked in front of Okung have signed six-year deals; the players chosen after Okung have signed five-year deals. Okung is conveniently stuck in the middle.
The Seahawks would obviously prefer a six-year deal, but that means Okung would have to put off free agency for one more year. A longer deal would obviously warrant more guaranteed money.
Ndamukong Suh, drafted second overall, recently signed a five-year deal with the Detroit Lions. This won't help the Seahawks add another year on Okung's contract, but it may lead to him reporting to camp sooner.
I'm hopeful Okung and the Seahawks can come to terms soon, but I wouldn't be surprised if he misses more time in camp. At this point, it would be great to see the Seahawks get something done by the end of this week.
Until then, I suppose we can look forward to watching more of Mansfield Wrotto at left tackle.

World's largest swarm of genetically modified mosquitoes released in Brazil
The world's largest ever swarm of genetically modified mosquitoes has been released in Brazil to combat infectious disease, according to reports.
Jacobina, a farming town in Bahia, has been plagued for years by dengue fever, a mosquito-borne tropical disease and a leading cause of illness and fatality in Brazil.
According to the Global Post, the newly hatched Aedes aegypti mosquitoes have been engineered to wipe out their own species, the Independent reported.
Last year Brazil reported 1.4 million cases of dengue, for which there is no vaccine - the most severe form of the illness, dengue hemorrhagic fever, can lead to shock, coma and death.
The so-called "Franken-skeeter" has been genetically modified (GM) in a laboratory with a gene designed to devastate the non-GM Aedes aegypti population and reduce dengue's spread.
The mosquitoes contain a lethal gene but are kept alive in the laboratory with the help of the antibiotic tetracycline. Once they reach larval stage, the males are separated from the females, which are subsequently destroyed.
Then the males, which don't bite, are released so they can mate with wild females. Their offspring inherit the lethal gene and then die before they can reproduce because they are not treated with tetracycline.

- Activist investor looks to overthrow Darden board
- Analysts weigh in
Starboard Value proposes a plan to replace all 12 directors on the current board after dissatisfaction with the Red Lobster deal.
Activist investor Starboard Value L.P. put forth a plan on Thursday to replace all 12 directors on Darden Restaurant Inc.'s board with its own slate, which includes several restaurant industry veterans.
Starboard Value, which owns 6.2 percent of Darden's shares, in a letter to other shareholders condemned Orlando, Fla.-based Darden's proposed $2.1 billion sale of Red Lobster to private equity firm Golden Gate Capital, which was announced May 16. Starboard also criticized Darden for not calling a special meeting that a majority of shareholders had requested.
"While it has been clear for some time that some level of change would be required at Darden to increase and protect value for shareholders," Starboard said in the letter, "this self-serving and value-destructive Red Lobster sale flies in the face of corporate democracy and has made it absolutely clear that the majority of Darden's current directors must be replaced at the annual meeting."
• Darden to sell Red Lobster for $2.1B
• Activist investor calls Red Lobster valuation 'grossly misleading'
• Red Lobster at NRN.com
Darden management, in a statement after Starboard's letter was released, stood by its board and said it would consider Starboard's nominations "in due course." Darden usually holds its annual meeting in the fall, but no meeting is currently scheduled.
The casual-dining company, which also owns Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse and other brands, said, "Starboard is seeking effective control of the company — representation which is disproportionate to Starboard's recently acquired approximate 6.2-percent stake in Darden."
Starboard's board efforts gained the support of fellow activist investor Barington Capital Group L.P., which owns about 2 percent of Darden's shares. Barington has also been pressing for extensive changes beyond the sale of the 706-unit Red Lobster, including the possible spinoff of the 836-unit Olive Garden, as well as the creation of a real estate investment trust (REIT).
"Shareholders can no longer afford to be represented by directors that appear neither focused on, nor responsive to, shareholder concerns," said James A. Mitarotonda, Barington's chairman and chief executive, in a statement. "Darden desperately needs directors that will represent the interests of the owners of the company and not just the CEO and themselves."
Mitarotonda noted that two-thirds of Darden's directors are in at least their ninth year of service, including the chairs of all five of the board's standing committees. Darden, however, said four of its independent directors had joined the board in the last five years, and two new directors had been added in the last two years.
Among Starboard's slate of 12 nominees are several restaurant industry veterans, including: Jean M. Birch, former president of IHOP; Bradley D. Blum, former president of Olive Garden; Lionel L. Nowell III, former senior executive at Pizza Hut and CFO of Pepsi Bottling Group; Charles "Chuck" M. Sonsteby, former CFO of Brinker International Inc.; and Alan N. Stillman, former chairman of Smith & Wollensky and founder of TGI Fridays.
Starboard noted that Blum, as well as the investor's advisor, Bob Mock, led Olive Garden and transformed it from "a struggling chain with highly negative same-store-sales into a highly profitable, industry-leading concept that experienced 29 consecutive quarters of same-store-sales increases under their watch, and grew AUV from approximately $2.5 million to $4 million." The company also noted that Sonsteby had been at Brinker when it faced sales and profitability challenges similar to what Darden faces today.

I'm going to the Cartier Polo and want to do 'funky sophistication'. I've just bought a brilliant pair of cream heels and would like to wear these. Faye Ricketts
The Holy Grail of fashion is dressing cool when the weather is unpredictable. Polo has the extra complication of requiring you to dress up for what is essentially a party in a field. My solution is mixing soft and structured. A soft dress's informality looks good in a country setting while a structured jacket smartens it up. Model/actress Joy Bryant and Anne Hathaway's dressy coats are perfect for this look, while Isla Fisher gives the look a more youthful edge with a biker. Be careful with those heels if you know you're going to be on soft ground. A wedge would be better if you really need the height.

tify differentially expressed genes under different treatment conditions. We will examine important sources of variation and discuss some exploratory and inferential analyses. We will provide some examples to show how different scientific questions lead to different experimental designs and statistical hypotheses.
Microarray measures the expression abundance of essentially all the genes in a genome. With thousands of measurements and relatively few subjects (tens, rarely over a hundred), any difference in the conditions of the subjects to be tested would cause a large number of genes to show expression changes. Therefore, it is very important to understand and control different sources of variability in microarray experiments. Typically there are two sources of random variability: biologic variation and technical variation. The biologic variation exists in the tested subjects. Sometimes it is possible to reduce the biologic variation, e.g., by using more homogenous individuals. Technical variation lies in the sample preparation and the microarray technology itself, including tissue collecting, RNA isolation, labeling, chip hybridization, etc. As the microarray technology matures, the chip-to-chip variation decreases. Still, large variation is observed during the sample preparation. For example, different labeling kits could lead to a big difference in the expression signals. Even with the same labeling kit, samples processed on different days may yield very different signals.
A related issue is the pooling of RNA samples from animals. During the early discovery phase when resources are more limited, pooling of the samples from animals in the same group may be necessary. An example of this is for establishing a surrogate assay to screen peroxisomal proliferation activated receptors (PPAR). While pooling samples allows researchers to use fewer chips, it loses the ability to measure individual expression and provide the estimation of biologic variation for proper statistical tests. It may be advantageous if samples are very cheap and easy to obtain (like in cell cultures), and a partial pooling is conducted in which samples from the same treatment are pooled to form multiple independent pools; thus the biologic variation can still be properly estimated. In general, for follow-up evaluation of observed toxicity, RNA samples from animals are not pooled. For example, upon observing heart weight changes or skeletal muscle necrosis in rats, microarray technology is applied to help find biomarkers and one genechip is used for each animal.
Another important issue is to avoid potential bias by randomization and/or proper blocking. For example, the processing batch effect may be significant. Two samples can appear very different if processed on two

Genre: Historical Romance, America
Not since the film Far and Away has the Oklahoma Land Rush been turned into such an exciting, fun, historically accurate love story. Finch's signature repartee, action and sensuality shine in this sassy depiction. Readers will enjoy the unlikely romance and smile at the characters' antics and double love story, making this quick read ideal for a holiday break.
Jossie Malloy is determined to claim land and independence in the Rush. However, the men in the makeshift camp believe she needs a husband. She's turned down a hundred proposals, until horse trader Sol Tremain saves her from her runaway horse. The half-Cheyenne lawman is in the camp hunting a gang of con men and gunslingers who prey on the settlers. Meeting Tremain gives Jossie an idea: If she can convince him to pose as her fiancé until the day of the Rush, she'll get rid of the annoying proposals. No one counts on their passionate attraction.

The Defense Department's overseas contingency budget might survive the end of military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Wednesday, two of the Pentagon's top civilian and uniformed leaders asked the House Armed Services Committee to keep authorizing an OCO budget even after the U.S. finishes the draw-downs in the region. DoD's latest OCO request came late in the year, and it's less than Congress anticipated. The House set aside $79 billion for OCO funding when it passed DoD's baseline budget for fiscal 2015, but now the Pentagon is only asking for about $59 billion. Todd Harrison is senior fellow for the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments. He explained how the budget deliberations on Capitol Hill might unfold on In Depth with guest host Jared Serbu.

Thirty years.
That's how long David Stern has been the Commissioner of the National Basketball Association. He is the longest tenured Commissioner in the history of American sports. It is almost impossible to comprehend how much the NBA and the sports world has changed over the past thirty years; however, it is not hard to understand how much Stern has meant to the NBA.
The question of legacy is interesting. This week we have spent a lot of time discussing Peyton Manning's legacy and how winning a 2nd Super Bowl would potentially make him the greatest Quarterback of all-time. However, I don't think his career is over yet. He can still add to his legacy. The most important legacy to analyze this week is David Stern's.
And here it is: David Stern is the Greatest American Sports Commissioner of all-time. That's his legacy.
Want proof? Just look at where the NBA was in terms of monetary success and cultural relevance in 1984 before Stern took over as commissioner. When Stern took over the NBA in '84 it was the third or fourth most popular American sport and drugs had been decimating the league. Len Bias, who could have been one of greatest players in NBA history has just died to due to a cocaine overdose the day after he was drafted second overall by the Boston Celtics. The league, to be perfectly frank, was a mess. Sure, the NBA had Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. However, NBA playoff and Finals games were still being broadcasted on tape delay and there were only five regular season games broadcasted per season. Can you imagine that?
However, from 1984 on the NBA has seen exponential growth in terms of popularity and financial success. The NBA went from being the MLS to the second most popular sport IN THE WORLD. That transformation was due to David Stern and his ability to change the way the NBA was managed and marketed, which resulted in the true growth of the sport.
Casual observers would suggest that Michael Jordan, who is the best NBA player of all-time, had a lot to do with the NBA's exponential growth. It's a fair point. The NBA wouldn't be what it is now without MJ. However, if it weren't for David Stern and Nike Michael Jordan wouldn't be MICHAEL JORDAN. Everyone on the planet knows Michael Jordan. He's like Coca-Cola, Apple or Microsoft. That is because David Stern realized that the greatest marketing assets the NBA had was its stars.
NBA players don't wear helmets. They don't wear eye black or hats. NBA fans sit close to the action. They see the player's faces. Fans connect with the players. Stern understood that marketing these stars and making them the face of the league and marketing campaigns was the best way to grow the popularity of the league. This strategy worked better than Stern could have ever imagined.
Just take a look at some of the most recognized athletes on the planet right now. It reads like an NBA All-Star roster: LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony. All of those athletes have multi-million dollar marketing deals. They are international stars. Despite the fact that those stars are incredibly underpaid by their teams, thanks to Stern, the owners and the incompetent Billy Hunter, they are some of the richest men in the world. That's because of David Stern.
You want to talk money? The NBA has $5 billion in annual revenues and is valued at around $19 billion. When Stern took over the league it was valued at around $250 million and in 1979 the NBA television rights were worth $400,000. No, seriously. That was it. In 1989 the NBA television rights were sold to NBC for $600 million and are now worth about $937 million. The NBA rights will be sold in 2016 for a couple of billion dollars. Yes, some of this has to due with the growth of advertising money and technology; however, Stern has succeeded at changing with the times and being ahead of the marketing and technological curves. When it comes to seeking out alternative revenues streams there has been no one better than Stern and his team.
Stern has overseen the largest growth of any sports league in the United States and, perhaps, the world. When Stern took over in 1984 the league consisted of 23 NBA franchises. Now there are 30 teams. The NBA has offices in 11 countries, despite the fact that the league only plays in two of them. Games are broadcasted in 215 countries around the world and in 43 different languages. He launched the WNBA, the NBA Developmental League, NBA TV & a plethora of other NBA related ventures.
Of course, there have been some troubling issues and controversies during Stern's time as Commissioner. The Malice in the Palace, "Basketball Reasons", four NBA lockouts, and a plethora of conspiracy theories from Tim Donaghy to the draft lottery to Jordan's first retirement have all happened under Stern's watch. However, they haven't stained his resume.
For Los Angeles Laker fans "Basketball Reasons" will forever bruise Stern's reputation. It's a fair point. He screwed the Lakers out of Chris Paul. He probably shouldn't have gotten involved. That move changed the course of NBA history. The Lakers, Clippers, Rockets, Hornets (Pelicans), Thunder and Warriors were all directly impacted by that decision.
Of course, none of this matters to David Stern. He is an extremely proud man who had made decisions with a chip on his shoulder and takes everything about the NBA personally. While that may annoy critics, I have found it inspiring and refreshing. He makes decisions as if he were a player who was passed over by every team in the draft. That chip has resulted in him being the best sports Commissioner of all-time.
As great as Stern has been, all great things must come to and end. After 30 years of the Stern reign it is time to pass the torch on to another man. Adam Silver, who has been the NBA's Deputy Commissioner for the last eight years and in the NBA's front office for the past two decades, will take over for Stern on February 1st and will begin to build his own legacy. Silver does not have to build the NBA up in the same way that Stern did; however, he will be undoubtedly be compared to his mentor.
Silver will have a ton on his plate right off the bat. He is known for his technological savvy and his negotiation skills in regards to television rights. That will be helpful considering that the NBA's television deals are up after the 2016 NBA Finals. That will be Silver's first huge test. One would have to believe that the NBA is going to re-up with ESPN and TNT, while carving out another smaller package for NBC Sports Network or Fox Sport 1 and also creating other interactive packages for online and tablet consumption.
Another issue Silver will be tasked with is growing the game internationally in India, South America and Europe. The NBA is already entrenched in China but there is always more money to be made there. The NBA is probably the second most marketed sport around the world, behind soccer (football), and that will likely continue under Silver's leadership.
There are other issues that Silver will need to address. Drug use, competitive balance, the draft lottery, playoff seeding and replay reviews are only some of the issues Silver will have to deal with in the next couple of the years. I have complete faith in Silver's ability to guide the NBA into the future. If he's half as good of a Commissioner as David Stern, "Basketball Reasons" notwithstanding, than the NBA is in great hands.
Farewell David Stern. Your impact on the NBA is immeasurable. Thank you for your service to the NBA and for growing the game into what it is today.
