2002 Security Industry Forum: Feb. 3-5, Tampa, Fla.
Security Industry Association (SIA) Executive Director Richard Chace (left) thanks former FBI Director Louis Freeh for speaking to attendees at the 2002 Security Industry Forum.
New technology and the new era of security were the cornerstone topics as roughly 80 attendees—mostly suppliers, integrators, dealers and security directors—gathered about 25 miles outside of Tampa, Fla., for the Security Industry Association's (SIA) 2002 Security Industry Forum at the Westin Innisbrook Hotel and Resort. Overall, the conference, subtitled "The Digital Revolution and Convergence of Technologies," featured eight speaker sessions, five terrorism group discussions and presentations, a speech by former FBI Director Louis Freeh, and a golf tournament.
The proceedings got off to a rousing start as keynote speaker Elliot Masie of The Masie Center in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., drove salient points home in entertaining and personable fashion. Among other things, he touched on how Sept. 11 changed the industry and how our industry needs to change. "The most profound thing about 9/11 was that it changed the 'security' brand," he says. "It has entered the consciousness of the mainstream, and people now want their security integrated. The time is now for the security industry." However, he cautioned that a lot of electronic security companies are technology-oriented and, because of this, they need to learn how to more effectively communicate in the terms of the businesses world.
Two of the most interesting aspects of the event took place at lunchtime. One day featured a presentation by Tampa Police Department Detective Bill Todd on the facial-recognition system deployed in the city's Centro Ybor area, while the other day featured five breakout sessions on terrorism. Todd detailed the 36-camera system, which includes the use of facial-recognition software during weekends when crowds swell to six figures, and how the public became much more accepting of it post-Sept. 11. The breakout discussions solicited and compiled challenges and solutions for terrorism in environments such as airports, retail establishments and special events. The results were then quickly transformed into PowerPoint presentations that were shown later in the day. Among their many findings, the groups universally agreed that there is a need for legislation making it easier for users to obtain security systems, some form of biometrics needs to be incorporated into most access control applications, and that uniform standards must be established.
Although the aforementioned sessions were worthwhile, the balance of the conference could have been stronger as 2001's version in San Diego was more successful. It helped that the end users who spoke at the previous event were from high-profile companies like Target, Kodak and Amgen. Another problem with the latest incarnation was that some of the material covered was either too esoteric or downright inappropriate for the audience. In addition, the venue choice was a bit puzzling. Although Tampa in of itself is not necessarily a poor location and the weather was amenable, someplace closer to the airport, downtown, the beaches, something, would have been much more convenient and productive. Finally, the proceedings could benefit from more ample networking opportunities. The sessions tended to be crammed together and even the lunches were stacked with activities.
Next year's conference is scheduled for Phoenix.

(2015) PG Bryant Crawford to Wake Forest
By ccgeneral, October 7, 2013 in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Washington, DC (Gonzaga )

AAU: Team Takeover
Has an offer. Was on campus last year for a couple UV's including HH. Pretty decent interest here from both sides. This is my guy in this class.

IU and Syracuse was his top 2 not to long ago if he had to choose now.
Bryant Crawford of Gonzaga Prep (D.C.) has long been a recruiting priority for Indiana in the class of 2015.
The No. 35 prospect nationally according to the 247Composite, Crawford missed the July evaluation periods as he underwent surgery in June to repair a tear in his meniscus. That injury didn't keep the Hoosier staff from showing up at his Team Takeover games or from coming to his high school when the recruiting period began in early September.
"They were one of the first schools to come down when the coaches were allowed to come out," Crawford told Inside the Hall from the USA Basketball developmental national team mini-camp in Colorado Springs last weekend. "Even though I wasn't playing, they still came down there and talked to me for a little while."
The 6-foot-2, 179 pound point guard was recently cleared to resume basketball activities and said he expects to be 100 percent for the start of his high school season.
"I just got cleared Monday (Sept. 30)," he said. "I've been getting in the pool and riding the bike and since Monday I've been getting in the gym and doing a little bit of work to get back into playing shape."
Before the injury, Crawford was playing his way onto USA Basketball's U16 team that went on to win a gold medal in the FIBA World Championships in Uruguay. Despite missing time in front of college coaches in July, the IU target believes he got better despite not playing.
"I definitely got stronger," Crawford said. "From watching the game on the sidelines, I definitely saw things differently than what I would have saw if I was playing just looking at people's game and looking at the competition that I'm going to have to come back to."
As a junior at Gonzaga, Crawford will take on a larger role as Kris Jenkins, a Villanova signee, has moved on to college. That will put more pressure on Crawford to lead, a challenge he is looking forward to meeting head on.
"I'm definitely going to have to take a big leadership role and keep everybody involved in the game," he said. "I'm going to have a lot of weight on my shoulders to carry my team, keep everybody with high spirits, don't let anyone lose focus and just keep pushing the guys to get better."
With more than ten scholarship offers, Crawford will a strong list of suitors to choose from. Indiana's diligence in recruiting him makes the Hoosiers one of the favorites at this point.
"They're one of the top schools, "Crawford said. "They're still recruiting me hard and have been recruiting me hard since they first started recruiting me. It's a definitely a great relationship (with Indiana), a positive relationship. With them, it's not all about basketball. They check up on how I'm doing, how I'm recovering, how my family is doing and how I'm doing in school.
"They want to get me back up on the campus. I feel like our relationship gets stronger and stronger."
When that next Indiana trip takes place hasn't been set yet, but Crawford is already familiar with the campus as he visited in August of 2012 when he received a scholarship offer and again for Hoosier Hysteria in 2012.
"I'm actually starting to schedule a few visits now, but I'm not sure when I'll get back out there," he said.

(2013-14) Preseason DMVelite DC All-District Selections
Bryant Crawford, G, Gonzaga, 2015
Crawford impressed in his first varsity season - he missed his freshman year with a leg injury - and now the show is his to run following the graduations of guards Tavon Blackmon (Brown) and Charles Glover (Mount St. Mary's).
As for the schools recruiting Bryant Crawford right now, there are a lot of them. "Villanova, West Virginia, UConn, SMU, Indiana, Georgetown, Penn State, Maryland, Nebraska, Ohio St., and Virginia Tech," he listed. Like many players in his class he doesn't have any favorites but some schools are after him harder than the rest. The schools are, "Nebraska, SMU, Villanova, Indiana, UConn, and Georgetown." It's safe to say that many new schools will get in on him before everything is over with Crawford.
With him saying that UConn was one of the schools after him the hardest I asked how often he talks with the staff. "We talk pretty often. If it's not with me it's with my mom or trainer," Crawford explained. Due to the conversations he's had with the staff he described their relationship as, "Pretty good." He also talked about what he likes about UConn saying, "Just their style of play and their coaching staff." That's became a very common answer from the guards Ollie has recruited. The way he has just let the guards go out and play their games has certainly been noticed by recruits.
Crawford has already made a number of trips to possible colleges already. "Georgetown, Villanova, Indiana, and Penn State. I'll set up some more after my season also." Among the possible visits he mentioned that he would certainly like to visit UConn in the future. "Definitely UConn because things didn't workout last time." The last time he's talking about was midway through September. He was set to visit then but he ultimately couldn't make the trip. Getting him on campus will be key for UConn to make the next step up in his recruitment.
Opened the season yesterday with a 68-46 win over Georgetown Prep. Had 9pts(3 3s) and 3rbs. Link

Wild finish to this one. Gonzaga lost 75-73.
Prominent star Guard Bryant Crawford, who finished with just six points, made up his mark on the night by facilitating the basketball and piling up a number of assists, doing so with limited scoring. Georgetown Head Coach John Thompson III was in attendance for the game.

Please consider signing our petition! Written by Donna Rose, LPC Do you think it is just and fair that mentally ill Texans should be required to drive to an office to start treatment before they are allowed to meet with a counselor online or phone, known as telehealth services, even if they have disability or other circumstances which prevent them from traveling to get treatment? On February 14th the licensing board for Texas mental health counselors will close public comments before a vote on a proposed rule requiring mentally ill Texans to first travel physically to a counselor's office to initiate treatment before they can access remote video or telephone counseling services—an impossibility for many thousands of Texans who are sick, disabled, live in rural areas with no local mental health services or reside abroad in non-English speaking countries, as well as a serious hardship for those who with limited time off work, caregivers for young children, or those requiring a specialist not available in their local area. Texans deserve to be on par with all other US citizens in their choices and access to mental health care! The new rule would prevent thousands of Texans from getting the mental health care they need remotely in the privacy of their own home for years to come if passed. The proposed rule reverses current policy which allows any Texan to remotely access mental health care via technology-assisted means such as online video counseling if they can't travel to the counselor's office. Thousands of Texans would lose equal access to mental health care services if they must first meet this hurdle. This change would undermine equality and restrict access to mental health care for the the most disadvantaged Texans—sign this petition to tell the Texas counselors licensing board to vote no on this unjust rule! The public comment period for voicing objections to the proposed change ends soon. Urgent action is required to stop the roll-back of progress for mentally ill Texans in critical need of remote access through technology-assisted services. What you can do: 1) Sign this petition which goes straight the decision makers' inboxes! 2) Add your comment telling why this issue is important to you! 3) Share your concern via Facebook, Twitter, and email–multiply your impact for mentally ill Texans! 4) Amplify your voice by sending your own respectful comments to the Texas counseling board by the Feb 14th deadline to:lpc@dshs.state.tx.us "Comments on Proposed Rules" in the subject line. Thank you for supporting equality of access for mental health care for Texans everywhere!
P.S. I am in support of this action and hope you will consider signing the petition! We only have a short time to make a difference for thousands of Texans! Thank you!

Rafael Nadal wins damages against French ex-minister over doping claim
By Alasdair Sandford •et; last updated: 16/11/2017
Rafael Nadal has won a defamation case against a former French sports minister who falsely accused the tennis champion of doping.
A Paris court ordered Roselyne Bachelot to pay 12,000 euros in damages and legal costs to the world number one for comments she made on television last year. Nadal had sought 100,000 euros in an attempt to set an example. Bachelot was also given a suspended fine of 500 euros.
In March 2016, Bachelot – then a TV pundit having been health and sports minister from 2007-2010 – accused Nadal on the D8 channel of having feigned injury during a seven-month absence from the circuit in 2012 to cover up a positive drugs test.
The ten-times winner of Roland Garros sued the ex-minister, calling on the International Tennis Federation to publish his test results. The federation replied that the player could reveal them himself, confirming that he had never been tested positive.
Neither Nadal nor Bachelot was in court. The Spaniard's lawyer, Patrick Maisonneuve, provided the court with his client's medical record which he said demonstrated a serious knee problem. Nadal wanted "to debunk once and for all what Mme Bachelot says".
Bachelot's lawyer, Oliver Chappuis, questioned the International Tennis Federation's anti-doping programme, alleging "a stupefying laxity" based on a "culture of concealing positive tests".
On his decision to go to court, Nadal said at the outset that he was "tired" of the allegation, which he has always denied. "In the past I didn't want to go to justice, to sue the people who said these things because I didn't think they were serious, but a minister of France should be serious," he has been quoted as saying.

Kids music news and reviews for librarians, teachers and parents.
Growing Up Performed by Josh Lovelace
July 29, 2019 Veronica Librarians, Parents, Teachers, Uncategorized
Josh Lovelace (of the adult rock group NEEDTOBREATHE) returns with a follow-up to his 2017 debut family album, Young Folk. On Growing Up singer-songwriter Lovelace captures universal life experiences that affect everyone no matter their age like friendship, family, the birth of a baby and saying goodbye to those we love. His solo voice is occasionally joined to great effect by children's backing vocals on the twelve Americana-tinged rock songs in this collection. While there are plenty of hand-clapping and toe-tapping moments on this album, they are tempered by other tracks such as the gorgeous "You Are Loved," "Let's Go Drive" which captures the peaceful moments of unplanned family drives, and the beautiful blending of voices on the Frances England duet, "Butterfly" which encourages listeners to reach your light and follow your dreams.
A couple of unique moments are found toward the beginning of the album. The first is in the classic rock sounding "Traveling Band (When I Grow Up)" which tells the tale of a youngster who wants to be in a traveling band and lists a who's who of performers – like Elton on the keys who makes the people want to shout – who could be in the band too. The second moment is the song "Calypso." Unlike anything else on the album, it calls to mind ocean breezes and your toes in the sand as people in the neighborhood are encouraged to dance the calypso.
With Growing Up, Josh Lovelace has created that rare family album that sounds like adult music, has lyrics and melodies with kid appeal, and a production value that makes every song sound like it should be on the radio. A must have for family listening.

Which One Am I? Performed by Howie D (yes, that Howie D!)
I have to admit that I was surprised and pretty excited to see a family album by Backstreet Boy Howie Dorough come across my desk. After listening to their music for the past twenty years, I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this album. I wondered what Howie D's take on music for families was going to be and how he was going to handle his association with The Backstreet Boys. Would he try to distance himself from the group in order to establish himself as a solo performer of music for children and not mention the group, or would he slide a quiet note of thanks into the liner notes? Well, there is a thank you note, but Howie D did so much more. He completely embraced his history with the group and played up his role as the "lesser known" Backstreet Boy with the amusing opening track, "Which One Am I?" Mixed in with questions asking if he's that guy from that group (*NSYNC, Menudo) are fun lyrics that pay tribute to each of his Backstreet brothers.
With that issue out of the way, the album settles in to tell the tale of nine-year-old Howie D, the insecurities he faced and how he overcame them to find his own way. Adult Howie D serves as co-writer, along with Tor Hyams and Lisa St. Lou, on the eleven original tunes in this collection that span a wide variety of musical genres and really showcase Howie's array of talents. Every song is a knockout featuring top-notch melodies, vocals and production value. Standouts include "Monsters in My Head" which has a Lenny Kravitz-vibe that totally fits the tale of the monsters that only come out at bedtime, "Shy" which calls to mind Frankie Avalon's hit, "Earth Angel," and the slyly reggae-themed "Worry" about many of the concerns that a child may have. There is a fantastic R&B groove on "Pollyanna's Shadow" while touches of the tango and the Blues also make appearances before the power ballad "The Me I'm Meant To Be" reaches in and grabs your heart.
Listeners will no longer be wondering "which one is he?" by the end of this album. Instead they'll be saying, "Howie D? Don't you know? He's the one making amazing music for families!" Crossing genres and generations, Which One Am I? is sure to be a hit!
Check out the charming video below for "No Hablo Espanol."

Canta las Letras performed by 123 Andrés
July 1, 2019 Veronica Librarians, Parents, Teachers, Uncategorized
In the `1970s The Letter People, a literacy program to teach children how to sound out the consonants and vowels in the alphabet, was developed. This program gave each letter its own identity and made the beginning stages of learning phonics fun, Once introduced, The Letter People captured children's imaginations and made them clamor for more. Who can forget being introduced to the inflatable for the letter "F" Fancy Feet then being assigned to design your own fancy feet and having a parade up and down the halls at school. Or the letter "T" Tall Teeth that featured the largest set of teeth you had ever seen. Each letter was unique in what it taught but they were all the same in that they entertained children while they learned. Listening to Canta las Letras, I felt the same excitement as I did when I first met The Letter People.
On their newest album, 123 Andrés takes the letters of the Spanish alphabet and elevates them from a single song that teaches the order the letters come in, to 38 songs that give each letter and sound combination their own musical identity. The songs are arranged in alphabetical order and composed using the rhythms and sounds that are found throughout Latin America. Many of the tracks feature animals such as "Cinco cerditos," "El guepado," and "Katy la koala" or body parts like "Cabeza, codo, corazon" and "Con mis ojos" while others directly speak to the letter such as "La H no suena" and "Aqui está la Q." Also included are songs about double letter sounds, "La C y la H chocaron" and "Las llaves" as well as a pair of songs about combinations of consonants – "Amigable" and "Gracias a la letra R."
123 Andrés infuse all of their music with an unbridled joy and this album is no different. With over an hour of original songs, Canta las Letras is the perfect musical learning tool not just for families who are native Spanish speakers but for anyone learning Spanish as a second language as well. Never didactic, but always educational and entertaining, this album is ideal for the classroom, storytimes, or family listening.

Love Is Te Quiero Performed by Alina Celeste
June 25, 2019 Veronica Librarians, Parents, Teachers, Uncategorized
I just listened to this album three times in a row while I tried to figure out how I wanted to describe it. Did I want to start by saying this album is light and airy? Or maybe filled with infectious melodies? How about a showcase for Alina's lovely soprano? After several stops and starts, I think the best way to start is by saying, Love Is Te Quiero is all of these things, but most importantly, it is music to make you smile. From the opening notes of "Love Is" through the closing chords of "Los Pollitos," listeners will feel their spirits lift while their and minds and bodies fill with joy.
Alina Celeste's Cuban-American upbringing is evident throughout the entire album as she deftly weaves bluegrass, Caribbean, and Latin American sounds together to create a delightful tapestry of songs. The eleven tracks are artfully arranged to smoothly flow back and forth between those performed in English and those in Spanish. Featuring repeated lyrics set to catchy tunes, every song invites listeners to join in no matter their native language. Standouts include the 1943 Spanish children's song "Vaca Lechera" and "Baila Conmigo." If you are looking for storytime songs, try "Coquinas" which will have children counting to ten in Spanish, while "Clap Your Hands" will get children up and moving. (The words mama and papa in this song can easily be changed to suit your audience.)
Love Is Te Quiero will find a home with families and storytime presenters alike. For a taste of Alina Celeste's style of music, take a peek at her vast catalog of videos on YouTube.

Earworm performed by Sean McCollough
June 2, 2019 Veronica Librarians, Parents, Teachers, Uncategorized
I'm guessing that roots music aficionado Sean McCollough probably knows a thing or two about earworms. Having studied music from a very young age, McCollough performs music professionally, serves as a professor of music at the University of Tennessee, and is the host of The Kidstuff Show on WDVX. I'm sure in these various capacities, that he's gotten more than one song stuck in his head. And you will too while listening to his latest album for children, Earworm.
The album opens with the title track which in a very meta way is itself an earworm. The simple melody, combined with catchy lyrics – "It's an earworm, it's not a wiggly worm, it's not a squirmy worm, it's just another term for a song stuck in your head" – will quickly engage listeners and play on repeat in their heads. A combination of original tunes and cover songs fill out the album's often rock/pop tinged Americana sound. Some of the songs are just fun little ditties like "Her Name Was Lady" which gives a list of the names given to a variety of different goats while others like "Fuzzy Brown Vine (aka Poison Ivy)" teach children valuable information. "ABC (The Writing Song)" provides a new tune to learn the ABCs by as well as encourages children to try their hand at all kinds of writing from short things like haikus to long novels. Many listeners will relate to the very true tale of "Carsick" while others will appreciate the message of "Don't Let them Get Yer Goat." A couple of special guests join in the fun as well. Molly Ledford appears on her original tune, "Sunsphere" while Billy Jonas joins McCollough on the polyrhythmic chant, "Green Means Go."
Earworm features accompaniment filled with a wide range of instruments with everything from a mandolin to African drums. While the musicianship is top-notch, it's McCollough's slightly gravely voice however that lends the album a sound that will appeal to children and adults alike. Like it's namesake, Earworm will slowly make it's way into your head and before you know it, you'll be humming the various tunes and happily asking yourself – where do I know that from?
*While taking a listen to the 13 songs in this collection, take a few moments to check out the album's cover featuring artwork by Knoxville-based printmaker Riley Bronough. Riley first came to McCollough's attention when his wife bought a couple of Riley's prints at an art show. Liking the look of the linocuts, McCollough contacted Riley and the Earworm album cover was born. What at first appears to be simple line drawings featuring just three main characters quickly becomes a seek and find for some of the things mentioned on the album. For more information on Riley and her art, visit www.cleversomedayprints.com.

Happy May the 4th! Designated as the official Star Wars Day back in 2011, fans around the world celebrate this date by showing their love for this pop culture cornerstone. My husband and I are fans because we are of an age that we remember what life was like for kids during the original trilogy's debut in the 1970s and early 80s. In fact, just this past December, my husband unearthed his original action figures and Death Star and I found my full size Princess Leia doll. Still fans at heart, we also attended Star Wars Celebration in Chicago just a couple of weeks ago where we had our picture taken with the ever suave Billy Dee Williams and had a blast taking in all of the costumes and life size models.
The very next day, I heard a Star Wars-themed song on Kids Place Live which led me to do some digging into children's songs that would appeal to young Star Wars fans. Here are some of my favorites, what are yours?
"Why is Dad So Mad?" by Board of Education

Under the Big Umbrella performed by Brady Rymer and the Little Band That Could
April 29, 2019 Veronica Librarians, Parents, Teachers, Uncategorized
"Different is beautiful, just like a rainbow, just like the colors that shine. Different is beautiful, just let your colors show. Yours go perfect with mine."
– "Different is Beautiful" from Under the Big Umbrella
Brady Rymer's 10th studio album with The Little Band That Could is filled with important messages for every listener that are inspired by those striving to create cultures of kindness in their families, schools, and communities. The opening, title track, "Under the Big Umbrella" was written for Lincoln Center's inaugural Big Umbrella Festival, a celebration for children with autism and their families. The perfect way to kick-off the album, this song invites everyone to sing and dance however they want under the accepting protection of the big umbrella.
The upbeat, positive messages continue throughout the album in a collection of original and cover songs that encourage listeners to be kind to themselves and one another as well as to do good out in the world. In a departure from his kindie rock style, Rymer is joined by Sonia De Los Santos on a country-tinged bilingual version of the Woody Guthrie tune, "Don't You Push Me Down," while on his groovy take on "I'm Coming Out," Rymer fills breaks in the song with children's answers to the question, "What do you want the world to know?" Additional covers include Jimmy Cliff's "You Can Get It If You Really Want," and the Beatles "With a Little Help From My Friends."
Children will enjoy the original songs just as much as the covers. From "You Do You" to "Thank You for Being You" the importance of being happy and confident in yourself is emphasized without ever becoming overly didactic or touchy-feely in sentiment. My personal favorite is "The Smile Shop." I love the concept of a store that has aisles and aisles of smiles for every occasion – the school picture smile, the shy smile, the playing in the park smile. Backed by a rhythm that demands listeners clap along, this tune would be a perfect introduction to activities where children talk about, write about or draw those things in life that make them smile.
Rain or shine, families will find themselves right at home Under the Big Umbrella.

Kindred performed by Renee & Friends
I don't know about you, but I've reached my limit for the negativity and self-righteous snarkiness that I encounter online. So, this past weekend, I took a break from the internet. I decided no social media, no email, no surfing the web. I was going to dedicate myself to the beautiful weather and those people around me. And you know what? The weekend was lovely, peaceful and restorative. Just what I needed.
I discovered something else that I needed. While looking for something this evening, I knocked over a stack of new music on my desk and before straightening it, I reached in and blindly grabbed a CD. And the album I pulled out was Kindred. This was just what I needed. What a beautiful collection of music! It is the perfect antidote to all of the things in the world that bring you down.
Those familiar with Renee Stahl's first Renee & Friends album, Simpatico, will not be disappointed with these new collaborations. Kindred is filled with gentle, soothing songs that can be enjoyed by the entire family. The opening track "Kindness is Cool" sets the tone for the album. Performed by Renee & Jeremy, this reminder of the importance of being kind to one another is wrapped in catchy lyrics highlighted by the refrain, "I'll be for you. You'll be for me. Kindness. Kindness." This is followed by the dynamite performance by Renee's 12-year-old-daughter, Amelia, on "Super Fragile World" as well as a lovely cover of the Cat Stevens tune, "Where do the Children Play" with vocals by Renee and Ziggy Marley.
It's hard to imagine a rap by Secret Agent 23 Skidoo being overshadowed by anyone, but that's exactly what happens on "Leaders of the World." While Skidoo's words are powerful and strong, it's the beauty of the vocals of Addi Rose, Amelia Dektor and the Cold Spring School Chorus that truly capture the essence of this song.
Additional friends on this album include Lisa Loeb and Elizabeth Mitchell who join Renee in their rendition of the classic, "High Hopes." Finally, there are two tracks that allow Renee's crystal clear voice to shine. "Nothing and No One" focuses on the fact that there is nothing in the world that could take away a mother's love for her children and could easily be used as a lullaby. The last track on the album, "How Did You Get So?" is a gorgeous song that asks a child – how did you get so sweet/smart/beautiful? It is the perfect ending to a much needed album. Every family would benefit from taking a few minutes, unplugging from the outside world and taking in the messages of Kindred.

Welcome to the first Monday of Spring 2019! Or at least I think it's spring. It's still on the damp and chilly side here. But what better way to warm up than with new music from children's performers who may be new to many of you? Let's take a little tour and meet some of them.
First up I'd like to introduce you to Gro-Town. Danielle Carlomusto is a Detroit-based performer whose first album Motown is Gro-Town is filled with cute food and nature inspired songs that are perfect for this time of year. Each song clocks in around 1-1:30 mins., making them just right for storytime dance breaks. Covering everything from 1950s pop to kindie rock the entire album is enjoyable, with the polka-inspired "Pierogi" being an unexpected delight. Learn more at www.gro-town.com.
Moving now from the Motor City to southeastern Minnesota, here to entertain you is Louis and Dan & the Invisible Band. This duo of dads (who also happen to be professors) come to us from Northfield, MN. Their self-titled album crosses a variety of genres covering everything from rock n roll to country western. Topics vary from the clever imagining of what princesses do when they grow up to the very silly idea of underwear spaghetti. Grade school aged children will really enjoy the lyrical word play. Check Louis and Dan out at www.louisdaninvisibleband.com.
Heading back to the eastern Midwest, we come to Columbus, OH, the home of Jordan Lynch & Friends. Their debut album is a collection of fourteen covers that range from the traditional ("Skip to My Lou," "She'll be Coming Round the Mountain") to the pop of "Rainbow Connection" to the less familiar, "The Wild Mountain Thyme." The album features a wealth of rich accompaniment that employs nearly two dozen different instruments. The songs are often comprised of an Americana feel that will appeal to fans of Red Yarn and The Okee Dokee Brothers. Created for a great cause, get more information at https://www.facebook.com/PiecesCD.
And finally we stop by the studio to meet Sir Dapp & the Paw Prints. This fictional animated band includes Sir Dapp ( a silver-haired Schnauzer), his cousin Dollie, his nephew Duffie and their friend Grumpy Gertrude the goose. This album of catchy tunes about kindness and respect never veers into didactic territory thanks to the engaging lyrics that are brought to life by human artists Eli Jacobson and Rachel Potter. Each song is well produced and makes the album feel like it's the cast recording of a stage show. Really enjoyable. Meet Sir Dapp & the Paw Prints at sirdapp.com.

Video Premiere – Taco Tuesday performed by The Lucky Band
For years we've enjoyed music from the Latin GRAMMY and Emmy Award-winning duo of Lucky Diaz and Alisha Gaddis. Now, after a decade of performing as Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band, they are reintroducing themselves to audiences as The Lucky Band. While their first album under this new moniker, Buenos Diaz, isn't set to be released until April 5, The Lucky Band is giving fans a preview of their new bilingual music with the debut of videos for some of the tracks off the album.
With that in mind, there's no better way to celebrate my favorite day of the week than with the video for The Lucky Band's new song, "Taco Tuesday." Infused with a retro-dance vibe, kids will love moving and grooving while learning the taco dance! Take a look.

Nilanjana Purkayasstha on her new show Dhadkan Zindaggi Kii
Nilanjana Purkayasstha on new show Dhadkan Zindaggi Kii: A heroine questioning patriarchy and standing up for herself, her career, is new to Indian TV
Team India Forums
Nilanjana Purkayasstha is happy that the promos of her new show Dhadkan Zindagi Ki have been receiving good response. The show maker and storyteller shares she is now looking forward to how the audiences react when the show goes on air.
"It is gratifying because the idea of questioning patriarchy and portraying a heroine who stands up for herself and her career is new to Indian television. The promos seem to have struck a chord with the audience and we are happy about that. This theme of sexism is the USP of Dhadan Zindaggi Kii. We do it not just through the story of the lead character of Dr. Deepika Sinha (Additi Gupta) but also through other characters and their stories. The show talks about women in a topical way and challenges the status quo of the representation of women on Indian TV for the last two decades. The show is almost entirely based at the workplace and highlights the challenges for women at the workplace, unlike 99% of Indian TV shows that highlight challenges for women at home," she says.
There have been many shows made on doctors. This is not the first time. One wonders how Dhadkan Zindagi Kii is different.
"Dhadkan Zindagi Kii is probably the most authentic medical drama made on Indian TV. It shows medical procedures, surgeries, etc in an authentic way. It is not a love story with the hospital just at the backdrop. It is about the lives of doctors, their professional and personal challenges are played out in a seamless way," she ends.

» Why is there a cross mark on the backside of a train?
It may be a funny question if anyone asks you that Had you ever traveled in the train?. Then answer these questions, Had you observed letter X on the last wagon when you are in the railway station?. If you have not observed, then don't forget it next time to observe that symbol. Also, observe the board with letters LV written on it beside the letter X and a red light below the letter X.
It indicates that wagon consisting of this letter X is the last wagon of the train.
The Letter "X" is used during morning whereas Red light below it is used to indicate during night.
If the last wagon of the train doesn't contain this symbol, then it indicates that the train is in trouble and also it can be known that train is running without some wagons.
It can easily alert the railway officials so that they can save from the accident.
In addition, a small board with 'LV' (black on yellow) is often attached to the rear of the vehicle (it stands for Last Vehicle).
So don't forget to observe this symbol on the last wagon from the next time you travel in the train. Be careful and alert others by sharing this news.

... average human being believes that he or she is cause to something, and therefore everything starts with the ego center projecting itself outwards into the screen of life. As long as we live in that space of the ego center, there can be the apparency of change but no real change can come about.
It (is) not a matter of the expansion of consciousness. In order to break through consciousness, you must come upon your true identity. This means leaving behind all concepts, all ideas, all thoughts of what you might be. You must die to what you think you are and be born into what you really are; that is the true heritage of the soul.
(...) another way of viewing life, be allowing oneself to be viewed. He described a spiral moving toward a central point.
"What you are is the composite manifestation of a moment of time. This spiral is continuously working its way toward the center, re-forming you each moment. But because you think that you are the cause of something, the movement of the spiral is blocked. God needs man, but He can only bring man to Himself when man truly knows that he needs God."

Neuralink, Elon Musk's brain-machine interface company, finally reveals details
Stuart Miles, Founder and CEO · 17 July 2019 ·
(Pocket-lint) - Elon Musk's latest venture is to create a brain machine that will interface with the human brain. The new Musk company - called Neuralink - is likely to be something you hear a lot about over the next few years and it pursues its aim of bringing brains and computers closer together.
You'll know Elon Musk as the CEO and founder of Tesla and Space X, dubbed the real-life Tony Stark, a character who doesn't back away from scientific of technological challenges. That's going to shine a light on Neuralink, a company that's actively recruiting, looking to bring in the best people to work on this brain machine.
Founded two years ago by Musk, the company which has been in "stealth mode" since its inception in 2017, took to Twitter to detail that it was planning an event on Tuesday 16 July to "share a bit" about what it's "been working on the last two years". The presentation was livestreamed on YouTube, the action starting at about 1:30 in the video below.
Details on the company's website merely states that: "Neuralink is developing ultra high bandwidth brain-machine interfaces to connect humans and computers."
The rest of the site details job openings from accountants to talent acquisition suggesting the company is "looking for exceptional engineers and scientists," and that "No neuroscience experience is required." That very much echoes the message from the event with Musk saying that it was partly about recruitment.
In 2018 Musk appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast. In the now infamous episode, Musk detailed that Neuralink was a product that would allow humans to effectively merge with artificial intelligence to help fight the rise of AI in general by machines.
That's now been revealed. Neuralink is designed to bridge the gap between a brain and a computer, implanting tiny wires packed with sensors to detect brain activity in a much more detailed way than anything currently available. The wires would pass the information to an external unit that could transmit to a computer, where the data can be used.
In the presentation it was also revealed that Neuralink has built a robot that neurosurgeons could use to implant the tiny wires into the patient's brain.
The ultimate goal is to radically increase the "bandwidth" between humans and technology. Musk described it as a third layer, saying that it already exists in the form of smartphones - but that output was very slow, because you have to type everything with your thumbs. Neuralink wants to skip over that step to create a symbiosis between brain and technology.
Several websites reported in 2018 that Neuralink had sought to open an animal testing facility in San Francisco, but that it ultimately settled to work with UC Davis's National Primate Center to conduct research on its behalf. Musk said that he had to address "the monkey in the room" - perhaps going a little off script - but did reveal that a monkey fitted with Neuralink has been able to operate a computer.
Musk said that some of what Neuralink wants to do is provide this interface for the treatment or management of brain conditions, allowing the greater gathering of data and potentially identifying what's going on. It should, for example, enable someone to communicate through a computer by thinking. It's these applications that are likely to see Neuralink get started.
But the applications potentially go much further, allowing that seamless link between a person's brain and other information. It might allow the addition of extra languages or information, something that's pulled from a sci-fi vision of the future.
Much of what was revealed aligned with in an in-depth article by Tim Urban on a site called Wait But Why. In 2017 Urban wrote a series of interviews with Musk about his various companies, one of which was a closer look at Neuralink at its starting point.
The post, which is some 35,000 words long, tries to set the scene and explain at the same time what Musk is trying to achieve with Neuralink, something Urban called the Wizard Era, and the device that Neuralink is making, the Wizards Hat, for a lack of a tangible product to reference.
According to Urban:
"Elon's vision for the Wizard Era is that among the Wizard Hat's many uses, one of its core purposes will be to serve as the interface between your brain and a cloud-based customized AI system. That AI system, he believes, will become as present a character in your mind as your monkey and your human characters—and it will feel like you every bit as much as the others do. He says:
'I think that, conceivably, there's a way for there to be a tertiary layer that feels like it's part of you. It's not something that you offload to, it's you.'
This makes sense on paper. You do most of your "thinking" with your cortex, but then when you get hungry, you don't say, "My limbic system is hungry," you say, "I'm hungry." Likewise, Elon thinks, when you're trying to figure out the solution to a problem and your AI comes up with the answer, you won't say, "My AI got it," you'll say, "Aha! I got it." When your limbic system wants to procrastinate and your cortex wants to work, a situation I might be familiar with, it doesn't feel like you're arguing with some external being, it feels like a singular you is struggling to be disciplined.
Likewise, when you think up a strategy at work and your AI disagrees, that'll be a genuine disagreement and a debate will ensue—but it will feel like an internal debate, not a debate between you and someone else that just happens to take place in your thoughts. The debate will feel like thinking."
He goes on to add:
"He [Elon] started Neuralink to accelerate our pace into the Wizard Era - into a world where he says that "everyone who wants to have this AI extension of themselves could have one, so there would be billions of individual human-AI symbiotes who, collectively, make decisions about the future." A world where AI really could be of the people, by the people, for the people.
Neuralink is certainly a company to watch.

Q: grid live search extjs My live search grid works fine but when I click on next page or do other thing about the grid, the search grid lose highlight terms search,does anyone help me what do I do? I want to keep highlighted terms search in all page. Thanks
bellow a snippet of my code:
var pagingStore = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
    proxy: {
        type: 'memory',
        enablePaging: true
    },
    remoteFilter: true,
    pageSize: 5
}),
        remoteStore = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
            autoLoad: true,
            proxy: {
                type: 'ajax',
                url: 'js/json/pagingStore.json',
                reader: {
                    rootProperty: 'items'
                }
            },
            fields: ['name', 'email', 'phone', 'type']
        });
remoteStore.load(function () {
    pagingStore.getProxy().setData(remoteStore.getRange());
    pagingStore.load();
});
var bbar = new Ext.PagingToolbar({
    store: pagingStore, //the store you use in your grid
    displayInfo: true,
    items: [ {
            xtype: 'textfield',
            name: 'searchField',
            id: 'txtfield',
            fieldLabel:'Search:',
            labelAlign:'right',
            emptyText:'search...',
            width: 300,
            listeners: {
                change: {
                    fn: onTextFieldChange
                }
            }
        }
    ]
});
bbar.down('#refresh').hide();
Ext.create('Ext.grid.Panel', {
    height: 400,
    title: 'Simpsons',
    id: 'gridPanel',
    store: pagingStore,
    columns: [{
            text: 'Name',
            dataIndex: 'name',
            filterable: true
        }, {
            text: 'Email',
            dataIndex: 'email'
        }, {
            text: 'Phone',
            dataIndex: 'phone'
        },
        {
            text: 'Type',
            dataIndex: 'type'
        }],
    bbar: bbar,
    renderTo: Ext.getBody()
});

A: So I answer my own question, I've created a highlight() method and put it on the container: after field search input on each click, the highlight stay on the search terms: ;)
cont.getEl().on({
        click: {
            fn: highlight
        }
    });

Sea World's Special Needs Discount Program Is Epic! Here's The Details.
You are here: Home / Resources / Sea World's Special Needs Discount Program Is Epic! Here's The Details.
Sea World's Special Needs Discount Program Is Epic! Here's The Details.
This weekend we were invited by Sea World San Antonio to come check out their park (which has an awesome new water park!) and to learn about their special needs discount program. I had no idea Sea World offered discounts to families with children raising special needs, but they do, and it's a great deal.
Just as a quick disclaimer, I'm not sure if these discounts apply to all Sea Worlds or just the location in San Antonio, but if you're not in San Antonio it's certainly worth giving your location a call and asking them about discounts to families with children with special needs.
SeaWorld San Antonio offers a 50% off discount on one-day admissions for our disabled/special needs guests and one (1) companion/chaperone (per disabled guest). Disabled/special needs guest is defined as anyone who is mentally or physically challenged, deaf, or blind.
It was a perfect day for a trip to Sea World!
This was Noah's first time at Sea World, and as you can see in the pictures below he had a great time!
Noah's having a great time at Sea World!
Noah's first ferris wheel ride!
We had a great time at Sea World, and if you are near one I think it's a great place to visit with your family. The one in San Antonino that we visited is especially awesome since it also has an incredible water park attached to it (not to mention the discount they give to families raising children with special needs.) I know we will certainly be brining Noah back!
I've also heard great things about Morgan's Wonderland (a theme park for specifically designed for children with special needs which is also in San Antonino) and plan on taking him there some day as well.
Very fun! Do you have kids now, and if so have you had a chance to take them?
There is also a park pass for people with special needs. If I understand correctly, most every national park is free for people with special needs, and for anyone in the same car with them.
I wonder what other opportunities are available for our kids?
Yes the national park pass is for life for any special needs individual good for the whole car load !
Thanks for sharing this information!!!! We didn't know that before. Noah is so lucky having a fun dad & mom taking him to so many new places!!!!
Thanks, let us know if you end up going! And yes, we certainly enjoy having fun with our little guy!
I took my son David who has autism to Morgans Wonderland te same year they opened. He loved it, we had so much fun. I think he was 11. He told me he liked it better then 6 flags. He said the reason why was, everyone seemed so happy to be there, everyone was so friendly. He said that everyone at 6 flags is in such a hurry and seem so angry. I think Noah would love Morgan's. They have a very fun water table, that my son loved!
That's very cool about the Sea World discount. At 6 flags Over TX we get the disability pass. As my son is unable to wait in long lines. Do you know if they have that at Sea World?
Hmmm, I'm not sure if they allow you to skip the lines or not. To be honest their wasn't many lines as most of the attractions at Sea World are shows,and there aren't really lines for the shows….more so just trying to find a seat. Although I did notice their were lots of seats marked off for "handicapped" which I'm assuming anyone with a "special need" could sit in.
I have never been to Sea World but hope to sometime. So I have no idea how the park is set up. It looks like you and Noah had a great time.
My son Gavin is 20 months lol and has downs. San Antonio has a kiddy park that has many mini rides, so cute! He loved it!
Were you able to purchase online or Is this discount only available in person? I have tried to find info on Sea World's Website but they don't seem to have anything at all on it.
By the way, Morgan's Wonderland is amazing! And MUCH less expensive! My son loved it and it's even enjoyable for children who don't have special needs.
I believe you have to call and purchase over the phone, I don't think they advertise on their website.
I've heard a lot of great things about Morgan's Wonderland, we really want to take Noah to check it out someday! Do you guys live in San Antonio?
Thanks for sharing! I didn't know that Sea World offered special needs discounts and we live in San Antonio! Is the discount for the child or does it also include parents?
We LOVE Morgan's Wonderland and have season passes for our family (we have a 20 month old with Down syndrome). It is incredible and so much fun for everyone (lots of families with "typical" kids enjoy the park just as much!). We feel blessed to live so close to such a fun place full of acceptance!
We live in San Diego and will check our Sea World for such a discount. So glad to hear of this option. We just took Mikey and his big brother and cousin to Las Vegas and he loved it. He "rode" the waterslide with me at Excalibur and loved it. He is a little fishy. So glad you had fun!
I hope you come back soon to our city, I didn't know about the discount, thank you for the info:) We just took our daughter Audrey to Morgan's wonderland last month with the local down syndrome association. It is an amazing park, they even host birthday parties!
Huge fans by the way, my husband and I have been reading since we were still pregnant:) love Noah!
They don't have a discount but Disneyland/california adventure has a pass for special needs children, so they don't have to wait in long lines…as we know sometimes this is a little challenging! And if its your little ones first time ask for a First Time Button and allof the park characters go out of their way to say hello!! Our little grandson loved California Adventure!!! Disney was a little too much for him but CA was perfect!
These are great tips. I am VERY new to blogging.
What an amazing blog and a beautiful family you have.
Walt Disney World in Orlando gives a "Special Guest Assistance" pass. No discount on ticket prices, but with this pass you get an alternate area to wait when the lines are really long. This usually equates to the fast pass line, or the wheel chair entrance. We have three special needs children, and there's no way they could stand in a line without bothering everyone around us. We couldn't go to Disney without this pass. There was something going around recently about people taking advantage of this, which is sad that some jerks have to ruin it for everyone, but I always bring documentation and never have any trouble. It's such a lifesaver. They also can give you a tag for your stroller that allows you to use your stroller as you would a wheel chair and use it all the way in line up to getting on the ride. My husband and I only have two arms each, and it's hard to park a stroller a couple blocks away from a ride and all get on and off safely. Hope it helps!
Harry Potter world was amazing! We went for Halloween and I was a witch and John was a snow owl! Theme parks are what playground slides wish to be when they grow up!!!!!!!
That's awesome. I actually didn't know they had a Harry Potter world. I knew Universal Studio's did, but not Sea World. Interesting. Which one did you go to?

2 Americans among Israel Defense Force soldiers killed in fighting in Gaza Strip
Two Americans who were soldiers for the Israel Defense Force were killed in fighting in the Gaza Strip.
Stuart Steinberg confirmed the death of his Max Steinberg, 24, to The Associated Press on Sunday. Steinberg, whose family lives in Southern California's San Fernando Valley, was a sharpshooter for the Golani Brigade. He was one of 13 men killed in fighting Sunday during the first major ground battle in two weeks of fighting between Israel and Hamas.
Earlier Sunday, the IDF said in a statement that Sgt. Nissim Sean Carmeli, 21, was killed in combat in the Gaza Strip. Carmeli was from South Padre Island, Texas, said Israeli Deputy Consul General Maya Kadosh. The consulate helped Carmeli's family get a flight to Israel on Sunday, she said.
Rabbi Asher Hect of Chabad of the Rio Grande Valley, who is a longtime family friend, said Carmeli joined the Israeli army after high school about four years ago and was in the Golani Brigade.
"He had great energy, yet had a kind and gentle soul," Hect said. Carmeli was the youngest of three and has two sisters who currently live in Israel.
Steinberg was living in Beersheba, Israel. He attended Pierce College and El Camino Real High School in Southern California.
He visited Israel for the first time on a Birthright Israel trip with his younger brother and sister in June 2012, his father said. When he returned, he made an announcement to his parents that he was planning to return and join the IDF, Steinberg said. He made good on that promise less than six months later, making the move in December.
"He went back," Steinberg said. "He was completely dedicated and committed to serving the country of Israel. He was focused, he was clear in what the mission was, and he was dedicated to the work he needed to be doing."
On Sunday morning, the Steinbergs were visited by representatives from the Consulate General of Israel in Los Angeles. They broke the news of Max Steinberg's death.
Stuart Steinberg last spoke to his son at 4 a.m. Saturday California time, hours before his death. Max Steinberg called his father to tell him that his group had been injured when two of their tanks collided. They had to return to Israel for treatment at the hospital. Some soldiers had broken bones, and Max Steinberg had sprained his back, his father said.
"He called me up at 4 a.m. that morning and said he'd be returning to Gaza, back to combat, to be with his friends," Steinberg said.
Steinberg said the family is leaving on Monday for Israel, where their son will be buried.

On June 23, 2016, Britain held a referendum on whether to leave the European Union (EU), of which it was joined in 1973, and the majority of the population voted to leave (51.9% versus 48.1%). There is a plethora of articles discussing the ramifications of this vote. While most articles forecast the British economy to suffer in the short and medium term, no articles have pointed out the opportunity for lawyers is greater than ever due to the number of agreements that will have to be negotiated. As disruptive as this referendum is, eventually this vote will be viewed as the "job security act" for lawyers.

($) "I know people who lied and got in…"
December 2, 2022 by EssaySnark
We're reblahgging this post from the 'snarchives because unfortunately this topic has come up, and it kinda makes us sad that people feel this way, and also… yeah. Tough topic here with many dimensions. "I feel like I need to do the same or I won't have a chance." Sigh. Premium content starts here……
Filed Under: planning your strategy Tagged With: ethics
« Previous: Watch for throat-clearers (and apparently wan intensifiers? whatever they are?)
Next: ($) Yet another "be specific!" post »
Here's what others have said about this:
Pru says
Someone's in a mood today 🙂
On a more serious note, you touched a chord. I do know people who have lied their way into B school. It bothered me a lot when I was doing my research. But once I got down to analyzing my profile and digging out my 'stories' I stopped worrying about these guys. Not that my profile is perfect or anything, it's just that I'll sleep better at night knowing my conscience is clear and it's ME they'll see in the app, not some stuffed shirt.
vanishingnerd says
Indeed an important aspect of applications where I kept wondering abt selected candidates denoting their work exp in a family business and no-name (non-existant) NGOs to bridge their gaps and/or extend the work ex.
That said, I even know some MBAs who started a "startup" just to get into a business school.
Makes me sad, everytime I look at their PostMba profiles.
essaysnark says
Yeah, we've seen a surprising number of candidates who've started nonprofits… but when you dig into them, there's frequently no 'there' there. It's just this thing that they've got at the bottom of the resume. There's no impressive stories for them to tell, no evidence of real impact, nothing of substance. We don't see the better bschools falling for that; the adcoms tend to examine the facts a little more closely.
ChilliBox12 says
I feel the best way to support the NGO fact is have a recommendation from someone who worked besides you or was auditing or supervising you. I am pretty sure if you start an NGO you have to get a 501(C)
@Chillibox12 – yes in the US, it's pretty complicated to set up a nonprofit corp with official tax-exempt status from the IRS – you would need to get the 501(c)(3) status. The examples we mentioned are actually overseas applicants. No idea what the rules are elsewhere on that. Agreed that a recommendation from that part of your life would be useful to show how 'real' it was, however in most cases, the BSer wasn't planning on doing something in the same area with their future career and if not, it may not be strategic to use a recommender in that way.
Separately to all: We've been reflecting on this more and actually we are sorta hedging now… Lying on an app, per the post above, is lame and we detest it. But taking action to change your profile so that you're more attractive is always a smart thing to do. If you go start a startup, or a nonprofit, as a way to boost the profile – that's not necessarily a bad thing, and it's not really "lying." It's perhaps not very sincere – your motives are off – but it's TAKING ACTION. And that's something we can always support.
So the examples being discussed here in the comments may be in a (slightly) different category than what we were ranting against in the post.
If you put in WORK to change the elements of your profile, you're going to LEARN STUFF. Even if it's just forming a corporation on paper and you don't intend to do anything with it… In the U.S., just getting that part set up can be challenging!! If it's a complete fraud and there's nothing behind it, it's just an idea or a claim of a startup – then yeah, it sucks and it's bad ju-ju. But if it's a real effort to get something going… We kinda appreciate that.
It's more effort than we see some people making! (Not people around here of course – you guys are rockstars!)


We know, those two ANCHORMAN 2 trailers we posted this week just weren't enough for ya. Not to worry, we're letting you finish out the week with a stylish new poster, and a hi-res one at that – just click on it to see it really big. ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND CONTINUES hits just in time for Christmas, Will Ferrell is back as Ron Burgundy, joined by original ANCHORMAN cast members Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, David Koechner, Vince Vaughn and Christina Applegate. Newcomers include Jim Carrey, Harrison Ford (yes, he's in it), Sacha Baron Cohen, James Marsden, Kristen Wiig, John C. Reilly, Meagan Good, Kirsten Dunst and Nicole Kidman… whew! What a cast!! Adam McKay returns to the director chair, and co-wrote the screenplay with Farrell. This all comes after a rather premature teasing a year ago with a rather cryptic teaser trailer, but at least they followed through with various promotions and a more fuller trailer. Now you can check out the official poster along with the newest full trailer and tell us if you're anxiously awaiting more wacky adventures with Ron Burgundy.
