All three bear improvements over earlier generations of this familiar fruit. Following are snapshots of the new iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, and iPod Touch, with notes from our taste-test. You can find these in your <a href=\"http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/\">local farmers markets soon</a>, or order them now at ole Farmer Jobs\' <a href=\"http://store.apple.com/\">online apple store</a>. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-flower_9aed.jpg\">At top, the new iPod Shuffle (2GB model); and inset, the new iPod Nano (16GB model). Above, the reverse face of the new iPod Touch (32GB model). It\'s thinner and lighter, with a much slimmer profile than any iPhones, including the iPhone 4. But the Touch does include some of the more popular features introduced with the iPhone 4\'s launch, including FaceTime video calls made possible with a front-facing camera and a rear-facing HD camera. Below, the Touch with the \"<a href=\"http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/buddha-box-meditation-timer/id309046852?mt=8\">Buddha Box</a>\" app, which mimics those little gadgets one can buy in China and Korea that squeak out prayers and chant automagically for good fortune. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/buddhabox_ad6b.jpg\"> Below, the new Nano, showing off a snapshot of Mr. Día de Los Muertos skull, right next to the genuine article. That little display\'s pretty crazy. It feels visually identical to the crispness and resolution of iPhone 4\'s \"retina display.\" A device this tiny isn\'t going to be used primarily as a photo display device—but sharing baby photos at the gym, or quick references to visual tokens while you\'re out and about? Sure. The notion of storing and showing photos on the Nano becomes plausible with the new high-res display. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano01_1523.jpg\"> The radio tuner on the Nano works great: reception was what I\'d expect from, say, my car radio, and the tuner interface mimics a conventional radio dial (mine\'s always set to <a href=\"http://kcrw.org\">KCRW</a>). Photos, music, radio, podcasts, pedometer and run history for running/jogging: All this in a device small enough to wear as a wristwatch, as a neck pendant, or clip on your t-shirt when you wrench away from your desk for a little fresh air and excercise. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nanoradio_b7f1.jpg\"> <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03a_ea40.jpg\" align=\"left\"> <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03b_eaa0.jpg\" align=\"right\"> Above and below, music and photos on the new Nano. You navigate the menu, and songs or photos within, using multi-touch swipe and tap. Flick your fingers one way or the other to shift orientation, and various tap gestures allow you to go deeper into options, or back your way out. Took me a little getting used to before I felt like I knew my way around with the new UI, but the new display and lack of button cruft sure feel nice. You\'d think something this small should be frustrating to use for touchscreen input, and two fingers at a time might sound impossible—but I didn\'t find that to be the case. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano02_e28f.jpg\"> Below: At left, the new iPod Touch next to a third-generation iPhone. At right, the new Touch next to an iPhone 4. The Touch really is quite slim, and has a more tapered silhouette, compared to the iPhone 4\'s more rectilinear form. <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-iphone4-size_7553.jpg\" align=\"left\"> <img src=\"http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-iphone4a-size_d05a.jpg\" align=\"right\"> Below: <a href=\"http://tv.boingboing.net/\">A Boing Boing Video</a> episode (<a href=\"http://boingboing.net/2010/07/30/markets-of-britain-a.html\">Markets of Britain</a>!) on the Touch.

Photos, music, radio, podcasts, pedometer and run history for running/jogging: All this in a device small enough to wear as a wristwatch, as a neck pendant, or clip on your t-shirt when you wrench away from your desk for a little fresh air and excercise. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nanoradio_b7f1.jpg"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03a_ea40.jpg" align="left"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03b_eaa0.jpg" align="right"> Above and below, music and photos on the new Nano. You navigate the menu, and songs or photos within, using multi-touch swipe and tap. Flick your fingers one way or the other to shift orientation, and various tap gestures allow you to go deeper into options, or back your way out. Took me a little getting used to before I felt like I knew my way around with the new UI, but the new display and lack of button cruft sure feel nice. You'd think something this small should be frustrating to use for touchscreen input, and two fingers at a time might sound impossible—but I didn't find that to be the case. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano02_e28f.jpg"> Below: At left, the new iPod Touch next to a third-generation iPhone. At right, the new Touch next to an iPhone 4. The Touch really is quite slim, and has a more tapered silhouette, compared to the iPhone 4's more rectilinear form. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-iphone4-size_7553.jpg" align="left"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-iphone4a-size_d05a.jpg" align="right"> Below: <a href="http://tv.boingboing.net/">A Boing Boing Video</a> episode (<a href="http://boingboing.net/2010/07/30/markets-of-britain-a.html">Markets of Britain</a>!) on the Touch. Video seems to perform as well as on the new iPhone 4, and I can imagine spending many spare moments YouTube surfing while in transit. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-video_bddd.jpg"> Below: FaceTime is available on the new iPod Touch.

Just look at it. See anything eerily familiar? Squid, along with the rest of the family Cephalopoda, haven't shared a common ancestor with us vertebrates in some 500 million years—long before the evolution of our camera-like eyes. And yet, there the cephalopods are, flagrantly swimming about with eyes that use a lens to project an image onto a retina. Call it Squid Eye for the Vertebrate Guy. So, how's it work? Convergent evolution, my friends. Convergent evolution. We happened to hit on similar solutions to the same problem of sight, even though the eyes of vertebrates and cephalopods evolved separately, in very different ways, at different times. Today, we can see that legacy in cephalopod and vertebrate fetal development. With vertebrates, the eyes grow on stalks, reaching out from the brain. In cephalopods, the eyes start as a clumping of cells on the surface of the skin and reach backwards, into the head, to make brain contact. Similar destinations. Very different road maps. This lovely illustration—featuring dissections of the head, funnel, mantle and eye of a Thaumatolampas diadema—comes from The Cephalopoda Part I: Oegopsida and Part II: Myopsida, Octopoda Atlas written in 1910 by zoologist Carl Chun following a German expedition to the Indian, Atlantic and Great Southern oceans.

Thank you to all the makers, the buyers, and our great partners/friends at MAKE! We learned a lot from this experiment and are currently exploring some new ways to create a curated catalog of wonderful things. More on that soon. The official message from our partners at MAKE follows. <blockquote> After a 7 month beta test period, we're sad to report that we've reached a decision to cease operation of Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. Although the concept of a marketplace for indie makers invited by the staffs of Make and Boing Boing received strong praise from sellers and customers alike, in the final analysis it is not generating the kind of sales for our sellers that we expected, nor generating the revenue we need to "keep the lights on". Working in close collaboration with Boing Boing we attracted over 150 wonderful makers with creations so magical we frequently found ourselves pulling out our own wallets to buy gifts. However, our model was predicated on a highly cooperative premise: that a marketplace of indie makers actively engaged in their respective communities would quickly begin to draw its own critical mass. In spite of our best effort, this dynamic simply hasn't evolved. Too many sellers have confided in us that they are heavily committed to other projects or too pre-occupied promoting their own sites or preexisting stores to effectively tend to their Makers Market/Boing Boing Bazaar storefront. Which means that on any given day, the only product(s) that sell well are those that Boing Boing and Make have blogged that day. October 8th will be the last day to sell products on Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. Thereafter, we will keep the market open through November 9th to facilitate communications between sellers and their customers. We will publish a full-width graphical announcement on all marketplace pages explaining that the marketplace is closed, but that orders already placed are being fulfilled, and that customers can continue to access their account and order details and can communicate with sellers as through November 9th. On November 10th, we will replace the marketplace with a static page with a message from Make and pertinent contact info. Effective immediately, we will waive any new fees other than commissions for those sellers who wish to continue selling through October 8th. For sellers who continue to sell though Oct 8th, standard sales commissions will continue to apply. We sincerely appreciate your investment in time and energy into Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. We want you to know that we have spent countless weeks evaluating the underlying circumstances, talking with sellers, and analyzing various options. In the final analysis, we are unable to sustain the marketplace without many times the traffic we are generating. We welcome your comments and would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

There is some terrific stuff in the BB Bazaar and we encourage you to reach out to the sellers directly and seek out their merchandise via other channels. Thank you to all the makers, the buyers, and our great partners/friends at MAKE! We learned a lot from this experiment and are currently exploring some new ways to create a curated catalog of wonderful things. More on that soon. The official message from our partners at MAKE follows. <blockquote> After a 7 month beta test period, we're sad to report that we've reached a decision to cease operation of Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. Although the concept of a marketplace for indie makers invited by the staffs of Make and Boing Boing received strong praise from sellers and customers alike, in the final analysis it is not generating the kind of sales for our sellers that we expected, nor generating the revenue we need to "keep the lights on". Working in close collaboration with Boing Boing we attracted over 150 wonderful makers with creations so magical we frequently found ourselves pulling out our own wallets to buy gifts. However, our model was predicated on a highly cooperative premise: that a marketplace of indie makers actively engaged in their respective communities would quickly begin to draw its own critical mass. In spite of our best effort, this dynamic simply hasn't evolved. Too many sellers have confided in us that they are heavily committed to other projects or too pre-occupied promoting their own sites or preexisting stores to effectively tend to their Makers Market/Boing Boing Bazaar storefront. Which means that on any given day, the only product(s) that sell well are those that Boing Boing and Make have blogged that day. October 8th will be the last day to sell products on Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. Thereafter, we will keep the market open through November 9th to facilitate communications between sellers and their customers. We will publish a full-width graphical announcement on all marketplace pages explaining that the marketplace is closed, but that orders already placed are being fulfilled, and that customers can continue to access their account and order details and can communicate with sellers as through November 9th. On November 10th, we will replace the marketplace with a static page with a message from Make and pertinent contact info. Effective immediately, we will waive any new fees other than commissions for those sellers who wish to continue selling through October 8th. For sellers who continue to sell though Oct 8th, standard sales commissions will continue to apply. We sincerely appreciate your investment in time and energy into Makers Market and Boing Boing Bazaar. We want you to know that we have spent countless weeks evaluating the underlying circumstances, talking with sellers, and analyzing various options. In the final analysis, we are unable to sustain the marketplace without many times the traffic we are generating. We welcome your comments and would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

One of the most important issues to address in car interfaces is how to deal with upset drivers, as negative feelings are among the primary causes of accidents on the highways. Unfortunately, there is little known about effective strategies that passengers can use when dealing with an upset driver. In particular, should a passenger -- real or virtual -- in a car with an upset driver sound happy and upbeat or depressed and morose? As an experimentalist, I decided to obtain upset drivers, combine them with either a happy or upset passenger, and see what happened. While one might want to do the study with real passengers, it's often much more effective to study people's reactions to interactive media directly. My lab and I had participants use a driving simulator with a gas pedal, brake pedal, and force-feedback steering wheel. Along for the ride was a "virtual passenger," a recorded voice played by the car. The voice was of a female actress and made light conversation with the participant throughout the drive. The passenger's remarks encouraged the driver to talk back. For example: "How do you think that the car is performing?", "Do you generally like to drive at, below, or above the speed limit?", and "Don't you think these lanes are a little too narrow?" While the voice said the same 36 remarks to all the participants, its tone of voice was clearly <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/632076/carhappy.wav">happy and upbeat</a> for some participants, and clearly <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/632076/carsad.wav">morose and downbeat</a> for others. The sad voice sounds almost laughable to most people, and it would seem obvious that these upset drivers would prefer and benefit from the happy voice. To check this, using the simulator and coordinated technologies, we recorded the number of accidents the participant had and how much attention the participant paid to the drive. We also measured people's social engagement with the virtual passenger by recording how much the participant spoke with the agent. After the driving was over, we asked participants a number of questions about their feelings about the car and their driving experience via an online questionnaire. What happened to these upset drivers? Did the happy passenger help cheer up the drivers? The simulator results suggest an emphatic "no." The happy voice in fact worsened upset participants' driving: upset drivers hearing the happy voice had approximately twice as many accidents on average as the upset drivers hearing the depressed voice. Upset drivers with the happy voice were also less attentive to the road than those with the voice that was clearly flat. The questionnaire results also suggest that upset drivers were happier with a subdued, rather than happy, virtual passenger. Specifically, upset drivers enjoyed driving more, liked the voice more, and thought that the car was of a higher quality when the virtual passenger was upset. In addition, even though you might think that an upset passenger and an upset driver would avoid conversation with each other, upset drivers spoke much more with the depressed "passenger" than they did with the happy one. Why didn't the upset drivers benefit from the happy voice? When people try to process and pay attention to emotions that differ from their own, it takes a great deal of cognitive effort. As a result, the drivers were distracted, uncomfortable, and performed worse. Furthermore, when the virtual passenger continued to cling to her initial emotion, drivers felt the lack of empathy, even if it was only a technology that was hurtful. While it is satisfying to inform the design of the car's interface to make drivers safer and more enjoyable, it turns out that there was another benefit. In over one hundred experiments, research emerging from my lab has shown that social behaviors and responses appear in full force when people interact with technology. That is, people treat computers as if they were real people. As a result, just as we can use the most successful social behaviors to inform technology design, we can use studies with computers and other technologies to derive rules that will teach people how to win friends and influence people. Indeed, in my new book, <a href="http://www.cliffordnass.com">The Man Who Lied to His Laptop: What Machines Teach Us about Human Relationships</a>, I describe almost one hundred rules for social behavior that can be derived from experimental studies of how people use technology and that can make people more likeable, effective, and persuasive. The current study gives us two principles to guide interactions with people (as well as technology): telling upset people to "look at the bright side of life" can be off-putting, and "misery loves miserable company."

Similarly, when BMW found that German drivers wouldn't take directions from a female voice and had to have a product recall, they found a voice that better matched their brand: a male "co-pilot." One of the most important issues to address in car interfaces is how to deal with upset drivers, as negative feelings are among the primary causes of accidents on the highways. Unfortunately, there is little known about effective strategies that passengers can use when dealing with an upset driver. In particular, should a passenger -- real or virtual -- in a car with an upset driver sound happy and upbeat or depressed and morose? As an experimentalist, I decided to obtain upset drivers, combine them with either a happy or upset passenger, and see what happened. While one might want to do the study with real passengers, it's often much more effective to study people's reactions to interactive media directly. My lab and I had participants use a driving simulator with a gas pedal, brake pedal, and force-feedback steering wheel. Along for the ride was a "virtual passenger," a recorded voice played by the car. The voice was of a female actress and made light conversation with the participant throughout the drive. The passenger's remarks encouraged the driver to talk back. For example: "How do you think that the car is performing?", "Do you generally like to drive at, below, or above the speed limit?", and "Don't you think these lanes are a little too narrow?" While the voice said the same 36 remarks to all the participants, its tone of voice was clearly <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/632076/carhappy.wav">happy and upbeat</a> for some participants, and clearly <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/632076/carsad.wav">morose and downbeat</a> for others. The sad voice sounds almost laughable to most people, and it would seem obvious that these upset drivers would prefer and benefit from the happy voice. To check this, using the simulator and coordinated technologies, we recorded the number of accidents the participant had and how much attention the participant paid to the drive. We also measured people's social engagement with the virtual passenger by recording how much the participant spoke with the agent. After the driving was over, we asked participants a number of questions about their feelings about the car and their driving experience via an online questionnaire. What happened to these upset drivers? Did the happy passenger help cheer up the drivers? The simulator results suggest an emphatic "no." The happy voice in fact worsened upset participants' driving: upset drivers hearing the happy voice had approximately twice as many accidents on average as the upset drivers hearing the depressed voice. Upset drivers with the happy voice were also less attentive to the road than those with the voice that was clearly flat. The questionnaire results also suggest that upset drivers were happier with a subdued, rather than happy, virtual passenger. Specifically, upset drivers enjoyed driving more, liked the voice more, and thought that the car was of a higher quality when the virtual passenger was upset. In addition, even though you might think that an upset passenger and an upset driver would avoid conversation with each other, upset drivers spoke much more with the depressed "passenger" than they did with the happy one. Why didn't the upset drivers benefit from the happy voice? When people try to process and pay attention to emotions that differ from their own, it takes a great deal of cognitive effort. As a result, the drivers were distracted, uncomfortable, and performed worse. Furthermore, when the virtual passenger continued to cling to her initial emotion, drivers felt the lack of empathy, even if it was only a technology that was hurtful. While it is satisfying to inform the design of the car's interface to make drivers safer and more enjoyable, it turns out that there was another benefit. In over one hundred experiments, research emerging from my lab has shown that social behaviors and responses appear in full force when people interact with technology. That is, people treat computers as if they were real people. As a result, just as we can use the most successful social behaviors to inform technology design, we can use studies with computers and other technologies to derive rules that will teach people how to win friends and influence people. Indeed, in my new book, <a href="http://www.cliffordnass.com">The Man Who Lied to His Laptop: What Machines Teach Us about Human Relationships</a>, I describe almost one hundred rules for social behavior that can be derived from experimental studies of how people use technology and that can make people more likeable, effective, and persuasive. The current study gives us two principles to guide interactions with people (as well as technology): telling upset people to "look at the bright side of life" can be off-putting, and "misery loves miserable company."

The reaction against them was immediate, pervasive and frequently violent. White mobs spit and screamed at Thomas and the other Little Rock 9 when they showed up for school. The state's governor tried to use the Arkansas National Guard to keep the black students out, saying that following the federal mandate would only result in social disruption and that integration would have to wait until some unspecified time. And Thomas' father was laid off, probably as punishment for his son's decision. Through it all, friends say, Thomas kept his sense of humor and used it to boost the spirits of the other Little Rock 9. He took his inspiration from a hymn, "Lord, Don't Move My Mountain, Just Give Me the Strength to Climb." "It seemed that overnight, things stopped being so bad," he said. "The same things were happening, but they didn't hurt me as much. I didn't feel like I was a failure. I felt victorious because I made it through the day." Thomas died last Sunday, from pancreatic cancer, at the age of 67. He is the first of the Little Rock 9 to pass away. Little Rock Central High School has since become a National Historic Site. The photo of Jefferson Thomas—along with classmates Minnijean Brown and Thelma Mothershed—is from their online archives, where you can also listen to oral history recordings, read about the lives of the Little Rock 9, and get a deeper understanding of the events surrounding public school integration.

All three bear improvements over earlier generations of this familiar fruit. Following are snapshots of the new iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, and iPod Touch, with notes from our taste-test. You can find these in your <a href="http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/">local farmers markets soon</a>, or order them now at ole Farmer Jobs' <a href="http://store.apple.com/">online apple store</a>. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-flower_9aed.jpg">At top, the new iPod Shuffle (2GB model); and inset, the new iPod Nano (16GB model). Above, the reverse face of the new iPod Touch (32GB model). It's thinner and lighter, with a much slimmer profile than any iPhones, including the iPhone 4. But the Touch does include some of the more popular features introduced with the iPhone 4's launch, including FaceTime video calls made possible with a front-facing camera and a rear-facing HD camera. Below, the Touch with the "<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/buddha-box-meditation-timer/id309046852?mt=8">Buddha Box</a>" app, which mimics those little gadgets one can buy in China and Korea that squeak out prayers and chant automagically for good fortune. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/buddhabox_ad6b.jpg"> Below, the new Nano, showing off a snapshot of Mr. Día de Los Muertos skull, right next to the genuine article. That little display's pretty crazy. It feels visually identical to the crispness and resolution of iPhone 4's "retina display." A device this tiny isn't going to be used primarily as a photo display device—but sharing baby photos at the gym, or quick references to visual tokens while you're out and about? Sure. The notion of storing and showing photos on the Nano becomes plausible with the new high-res display. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano01_1523.jpg"> The radio tuner on the Nano works great: reception was what I'd expect from, say, my car radio, and the tuner interface mimics a conventional radio dial (mine's always set to <a href="http://kcrw.org">KCRW</a>). Photos, music, radio, podcasts, pedometer and run history for running/jogging: All this in a device small enough to wear as a wristwatch, as a neck pendant, or clip on your t-shirt when you wrench away from your desk for a little fresh air and excercise. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nanoradio_b7f1.jpg"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03a_ea40.jpg" align="left"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03b_eaa0.jpg" align="right"> Above and below, music and photos on the new Nano. You navigate the menu, and songs or photos within, using multi-touch swipe and tap. Flick your fingers one way or the other to shift orientation, and various tap gestures allow you to go deeper into options, or back your way out. Took me a little getting used to before I felt like I knew my way around with the new UI, but the new display and lack of button cruft sure feel nice. You'd think something this small should be frustrating to use for touchscreen input, and two fingers at a time might sound impossible—but I didn't find that to be the case. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano02_e28f.jpg"> Below: At left, the new iPod Touch next to a third-generation iPhone. At right, the new Touch next to an iPhone 4.

You can find these in your <a href="http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/">local farmers markets soon</a>, or order them now at ole Farmer Jobs' <a href="http://store.apple.com/">online apple store</a>. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/touch-flower_9aed.jpg">At top, the new iPod Shuffle (2GB model); and inset, the new iPod Nano (16GB model). Above, the reverse face of the new iPod Touch (32GB model). It's thinner and lighter, with a much slimmer profile than any iPhones, including the iPhone 4. But the Touch does include some of the more popular features introduced with the iPhone 4's launch, including FaceTime video calls made possible with a front-facing camera and a rear-facing HD camera. Below, the Touch with the "<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/buddha-box-meditation-timer/id309046852?mt=8">Buddha Box</a>" app, which mimics those little gadgets one can buy in China and Korea that squeak out prayers and chant automagically for good fortune. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/buddhabox_ad6b.jpg"> Below, the new Nano, showing off a snapshot of Mr. Día de Los Muertos skull, right next to the genuine article. That little display's pretty crazy. It feels visually identical to the crispness and resolution of iPhone 4's "retina display." A device this tiny isn't going to be used primarily as a photo display device—but sharing baby photos at the gym, or quick references to visual tokens while you're out and about? Sure. The notion of storing and showing photos on the Nano becomes plausible with the new high-res display. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano01_1523.jpg"> The radio tuner on the Nano works great: reception was what I'd expect from, say, my car radio, and the tuner interface mimics a conventional radio dial (mine's always set to <a href="http://kcrw.org">KCRW</a>). Photos, music, radio, podcasts, pedometer and run history for running/jogging: All this in a device small enough to wear as a wristwatch, as a neck pendant, or clip on your t-shirt when you wrench away from your desk for a little fresh air and excercise. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nanoradio_b7f1.jpg"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03a_ea40.jpg" align="left"> <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano03b_eaa0.jpg" align="right"> Above and below, music and photos on the new Nano. You navigate the menu, and songs or photos within, using multi-touch swipe and tap. Flick your fingers one way or the other to shift orientation, and various tap gestures allow you to go deeper into options, or back your way out. Took me a little getting used to before I felt like I knew my way around with the new UI, but the new display and lack of button cruft sure feel nice. You'd think something this small should be frustrating to use for touchscreen input, and two fingers at a time might sound impossible—but I didn't find that to be the case. <img src="http://boingboing.net/images/xeni/nano02_e28f.jpg"> Below: At left, the new iPod Touch next to a third-generation iPhone.
