Hayreddin Karaman A Reference Point in Turkish Islam and his Influence in Europe
Authors: OKUMUS Fatih
Published: February 2024

Hayreddin Karaman, “the muftī of muftīs (teacher of teachers),” is one of the most revered scholars in contemporary Turkish theology. This article argues that Karaman’s authority rests on three pillars: the applicability, and accessibility of his thought, the fruits of his perception of Islam, especially his approach tocontemporary issues using Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh). Karaman’s starting point is ijtihād,i.e., the possibility and even the necessity of independent reasoning. Karamanrelies on traditional literature and methodology that is applicable in the present. His solution-oriented mind seeks practical answers to how contemporary Muslims can live their religion and prosper in a non-Islamic public sphere. His work addresses the challenges of this sphere, including the concerns of contemporary Muslims. This study also uses particular findings of the fieldwork the author conducted in the Netherlands.

Authors: KAYA Beytullah , BAŞARAN Burcu
Published: February 2024

Halide Edip, 1882 – 1964 yılları arasında yaşamış, Osmanlı Devleti’nin son dönemi ve Cumhuriyet’in kurulmasına tanık olmuş gerek edebi eserleri gerekse Millî Mücadele için yapmış olduğu çalışmalarla tanınmış, edebiyat dünyamızın önemli aydınlarından biridir. Kadınların siyaset ve sosyal hayatta ön planda olmadığı bir dönemde cesur ve girişken kişiliği ile pek çok alanda faaliyet göstererek öncü rol oynamıştır. Millî Mücadele’nin hazırlık evresinden Kurtuluş Savaşının kazanılmasına kadar üstlendiği aktif rol ile savaşın başarılı olacağına olan inancı artırmıştır. Cumhuriyet döneminde yazdığı eserlerle Kurtuluş Savaşı dönemini yeni nesillere birinci elden tanıtmış ve savaşın hangi şartlar altında gerçekleştirildiğini bir ressam gibi eserlerine işleyerek yeni nesillerin hafızasında canlı kalmasını sağlamıştır.

Bu çalışmada, Halide Edip’in Anadolu’nun işgal edilmesi üzerine memleketi kurtarmak için yapmış olduğu faaliyetler incelenmiştir. Bu kapsamda, meydanlardaki miting konuşmalarının genel özellikleri, ülkenin kurtuluşu için gizli örgütlerle çalışarak Kurtuluş Savaşı sırasında yaptığı faaliyetler ve Türk toplumuna katkıları incelenmiştir. İzmir’in işgali sonrası 19 Mayıs 1919’da Fatih Meydanı’nda düzenlenen miting konuşması, 22 Mayıs 1919’da Kadıköy Meydan’ında gerçekleşen miting konuşması, 23 Mayıs 1919’da Sultanahmet Meydanı’nda gerçekleşen miting konuşması, gizli örgütlerle yaptığı çalışmaları ve Batı cephesinde Onbaşı kimliği ile yapmış olduğu askeri çalışmaları incelenmiştir. Miting konuşmalarında genellikle Türklük şuurundan ve Müslümanlığın öneminden, milli birlik oluşturma gerekliliğinden, bağımsızlık için umutsuzluğa kapılmadan mücadele etmek gerektiğinden ve bu uğurda Türk kadınlarına düşen görevlerden bahsetmiştir. Bu mitinglerde kurtuluş için halkın duygularını harekete geçirmeye yönelik konuşmalar yapmış ve kendisi de bu duygu yoğunluğuna kapılmıştır. Miting konuşmalarının yanı sıra onbaşı rütbesi ile askeri alanda Kurtuluş Savaşı’nın sonuna kadar raporlama görevini icra etmiştir. Halide Edip, Osmanlı Devleti’nin işgallerden kurtulmasına yönelik yaptığı bu çalışmalar sayesinde birçok Osmanlı kadınına örnek teşkil etmiştir.

Published: February 2024

Salinity stress can negatively impact the growth and productivity of young wheat seedlings, leading to diminished grain yield and quality. Poor salinity management can cause soil sodicity in farming soils, where sodium (Na) binds to negatively charged clay, causing clay swelling and dispersal, subsequently decreasing the crop yield. Thus, the use of salinity tolerant varieties can be a plausible solution. This article investigates the effects of salinity stress on the germination and early seedling growth of 15 wheat genotypes in Bangladesh. The seeds were exposed to four levels of salinity (0, 6, 9, and 12 dS/m) and various germination parameters were measured, such as water imbibition, germination rate, seedling tissue water content, and seedling vigour index. The results showed significant differences among the genotypes and the salinity levels for all the parameters. BARI Gom 25 was found to be the most tolerant genotype, followed by BARI Gom 24, BARI Gom 29, and Binagom-1. The article also discussed the implications of these findings for saline soil remediation and wheat production in coastal areas of Bangladesh

Published: February 2024

A mielossupressão induzida por agentes quimioterápicos, definida como a presença de anemia (hemoglobina < 10,0 g/dL), neutropenia (contagem absoluta de neutrófilos < 1,5×109/L) e/ou trombocitopenia (plaquetas < 75×109/L), acarreta inúmeras complicações para pacientes oncológicos. Esta condição está associada ao aumento do risco de infecções, fadiga, sangramento, gerando elevação dos custos em saúde, piora na qualidade de vida e no desempenho do tratamento, que por vezes necessita ter sua dose reduzida ou seu ciclo adiado. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a incidência e delinear o perfil da mielotoxicidade induzida por quimioterápicos em pacientes adultos com câncer do Hospital Regional de Taguatinga. Foi realizado um estudo transversal descritivo, os dados foram coletados ao longo do período de janeiro a dezembro de 2022. A população analisada totalizou 267 pacientes, com idade média de 56,6 anos e predominância do gênero feminino (73,4%), sendo mama a localização de câncer mais frequente. A classe farmacológica mais prescrita foi a dos agentes alquilantes, recomendada para 230 pacientes. Os protocolos mais frequentemente prescritos foram doxorrubicina + ciclofosfamida, com 88 pacientes (33%), cisplatina monodroga, com 41 pacientes (15,4%), oxaliplatina + capecitabina, com 40 pacientes (15%), e carboplatina + paclitaxel, com 37 pacientes (13,8%). O protocolo composto por carboplatina + paclitaxel foi associado a maior incidência de anemia. Já o protocolo doxorrubicina + ciclofosfamida demonstrou maior propensão à neutropenia, independentemente do grau. Ademais, aproximadamente metade dos pacientes submetidos ao protocolo oxaliplatina + capecitabina apresentaram trombocitopenia de grau 2. A análise comparativa de cada parâmetro associado à mielotoxicidade foi realizada em cada ciclo de quimioterapia e mostrou diferenças entre os protocolos, variando de toxicidade crescente, pontual ou já evidente no primeiro ciclo, com o grau 2 mais frequentemente observado. Essas alterações se manifestaram após a administração da quimioterapia, enfatizando a necessidade de acompanhamento e monitoramento para possíveis intervenções.

Bamboo shoot is well known for the high nutritive values it possesses. People in Northeastern India, the majority of which are tribal and lives in rural area consume bamboo shoot extensively without knowing its benefits and demerits. The present study was undertaken in Arunachal Pradesh, India considering the possible threats it may pose to the people of the region in particular by estimating the anti-nutritional elements such as Phytic acid and Trypsin inhibitor from bamboo shoots of seven species and its three processed forms that are widely consume. Phytic acid content was observed within a range of 0.81 to 0.31 Pmg/100g and 0.75 to 0.38 Pmg/100g in bamboo shoots and processed products respectively whereas trypsin inhibitor in tender shoots of all the seven species (0.53-0.24 TIU mg/protein) and processed products (0.37-0.19 TIU mg/protein) was also recorded. Similarly, there were also significant variations in phytic acid (F=41.509, P<0.001) and trypsin inhibitor (F=16.631, P< 0.001) concentration between the fresh shoots and processed forms. The amount of antinutrients estimated from these samples are considerably less and far from any harm.

Authors:   Clemson University, SC, USA, S Sharma , A. D. Wait ,   Missouri State University, MO, USA
Published: February 2024

Arundinaria gigantea is a native species to 22 states in the U.S. The species and its ecosystem are considered critically endangered, and the species has been reduced to 2% of its original extent. Our research goals were to; 1) examine methods for greenhouse propagation for restoration; 2) examine the physiology of cane at one of the only canebrakes on public land in SW MO, greenhouse propagated cane, and field planted cane; and 3) develop an allometric equation to estimate biomass of the canebrake. We used the number of shoots produced as a metric for propagation success. The number of new shoots depended on rhizome length, watering regime, and whether propagation was attempted with the rhizome alone or with an existing culm. We recorded 100% propagation success from every rhizome with culm cut at 2nd internode with regular watering on 8 x 15.6-inch pots having soil-mix/perlite media. Leaf chlorophyll values ranged from 329 umol/m2 in sun leaves to 354 umol/m2 in shade leaves in October 2022. During a mild drought summer 2022, leaves-maintained water potential of -1.8 MPa with photosynthetic rates as high as 12 umol CO2/m2/s. Biomass models based on pole diameter and height were established. We estimated 12,359.508 kg of biomass which is equivalent to 5.8 metric tons of carbon stored by a 0.17 ha canebrake at Mincy Conservation Area in SW MO. Our research provides baseline data for understanding the role of cane and canebrakes in ecosystem functioning in existing canebrakes, and habitats where cane could be restored.

No presente trabalho, inovou-se utilizando resíduos do beneficiamento do fruto do açaí para a produção de base de carbono para o suporte de catalisadores metálicos, em seguida, desenvolveu-se o estudo de sintetização e aplicação de catalisadores metálicos visando a desoxigenação seletiva na produção de biocombustíveis, a partir do processo de craqueamento em escala de bancada. Os produtos líquidos orgânicos (PLO's) obtidos foram destilados em escala de bancada com uma coluna do tipo Vigreux. Nas reações de craqueamento térmico e térmico catalítico verificou-se a eficiência catalítica, utilizando óleo de fritura residual. Os catalisadores metálicos foram suportados em carvão ativado produzidos a partir da carbonização do caroço de açaí residual a 700 °C durante uma hora, A impregnação foi realizada por ponto úmido na concentração de 5 %. Os resultados obtidos em escala de bancada, no processo de craqueamento, mostraram que o catalisador cobre (Cat-Cu5%) obteve o melhor rendimento 75,5 % e menor tempo (38 minutos) de craqueamento juntamente com o catalisador de zinco (Cat-Zn5%), o PLO de menor índice de acidez (0,37 mgKOH/g amostra). No que diz respeito ao processo de destilação e as frações de biocombustíveis o catalisador de ferro (Cat-Fe5%) apresentou o maior rendimento em biogasolina (10,7 %), Cat-Ni5% o maior em bioquerosene (15,25 %) e o Cat-Zn5% em diesel verde (23,33 %). Todas as frações apresentaram densidade dentro dos limites da normatização. Para biogasolina o Cat-Ni5% apresentou o menor nível de acidez e saponificação (0,19 e 2,7 mgKOH/g amostra), já na faixa do bioquerosene, os Cat-Zn5% e Cat-Cu5% produziram frações com os menores índices de acidez (0,31 mgKOH/g amostra), na faixa do diesel verde o Cat-Zn5% foi o mais efetivo produzindo fração com menor índice de acidez (2,70 mgKOH/g amostra). Apesar de os índices de desoxigenação não estarem dentro dos limites estabelecidos pela ANP, verificou-se redução expressiva no índice de acidez tanto nos PLO's quanto das frações obtidas, logo entende-se que os catalisadores metálicos sintetizados foram efetivos.

Published: February 2024

Coral reef environments show great diversity and abundance of species that represent important biological resources for obtaining food and medicines, in addition to acting as bioindicators of the quality of reef environments, serving as a parameter to diagnose environmental impacts and, simultaneously, to evaluate the availability and use of fishing stocks and biological resources in such environments. Monitoring such  ecosystems arises from the urgent need to better understand the natural geographic and environmental variability of these systems, as well as their main drivers of change, to inform and promote more effective management of such environments. With the growing need to monitor communities of reef organisms, particularly fish, the creation of a digital analysis method would make a great contribution to the studies of reef fish. To fill this knowledge gap, our work evaluates the possibility of using an artificial intelligence mechanism using convolutional neural networks (CNN) to identify and count reef fish in image records, to optimize digital analysis of videos and/or photos in reef environments for fish ecology studies. The accuracy of the CNN identification method was effective, although it still has challenges to improve, such as: the need for a preliminary survey of reef fish species existing in the target area to be monitored, with the capture of good resolution images in different positions space for each species; production of an image bank with a large number of diverse images for each species (minimum of 200 images per species) and; To detect fish in videos, fast computers with a dedicated GPU card are needed, especially if the videos are high or ultra-resolution and have a large number of fps.
Conflito e preconceito: as marcas da Umbanda em Irati/PR, décadas de 1950/60
Authors: Kotlinski Jaqueline , Martins Valter
Published: February 2024

A Umbanda, enquanto religião institucionalizada, passou a ser praticada em Irati/PR na década de 1950. Anteriormente, essa prática religiosa ocorria nas residências dos adeptos. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar a inserção do primeiro Terreiro de Umbanda  na sociedade iratiense em seus anos iniciais, a partir de sua fundação em 1956. Como fontes documentais utilizamos o jornal Tribuna dos Munícipios e entrevistas. Ao analisarmos uma notícia publicada nesse jornal relativa à Umbanda, ficaram evidentes os estereótipos e preconceitos dirigidas à mesma. Para melhor compreender o processo de inserção dessa “nova religião” em uma pequena cidade, conservadora e tradicionalmente católica, realizamos duas entrevistas com adeptas da Umbanda naquele período. Verificamos que o novo, o diferente que fugia dos padrões da sociedade estabelecida, majoritariamente católica, gerou certo estranhamento, especialmente em função do desconhecimento. Diante disso, buscamos identificar quem eram as pessoas que fundaram o primeiro Terreiro na cidade, quem eram os frequentadores e a que grupo social pertenciam. O embate entre católicos e umbandistas pode ser compreendido dentro das disputas pelo "mercado religioso". Tais disputas ganham destaque nas mídias atuais produzindo discursos preconceituosos e intolerantes para com a religião "do outro", especialmente quando se trata de de religião de matriz afro-brasileira. Verificamos que reações e tensões ocorreram diante da nova religião que se instalou na cidade em finais da década de 1950. Parte do grupo majoritário católico, atuou no sentido de fazer prevalecer a religião dominante, construindo um discurso discriminatório visando desqualificar a religião daqueles que se reuniam no Terreiro para praticar seu culto.

Published: February 2024

The research objective aimed to understand and analyze stock market participation among the millennial population in Indonesia. Specifically, this study tested stock market participation against the financial literacy variable. It employed a causality research type with a quantitative analysis approach using path analysis method. The sampling technique was purposive sampling, targeting the millennial and Generation Z populations. The model used was Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Partial Least Square (PLS) through the Smart PLS software. The research variables included Financial Literacy (LF) with indicators (basic financial knowledge, saving and borrowing, protection, investment) and Stock Market Participation (SMP) with indicators (intention to invest in the stock market, motivational, income, reference to social interaction). The results showed that Financial Literacy significantly affects stock market participation. The final recommendation of this study related to investments in the capital market, especially stocks, is that relevant institutions, particularly the Indonesia Stock Exchange and organizations within it, together with the Financial Services Authority, should continue to provide well-organized education to improve investment understanding among millennials and Generation Z, considering the significant potential of these two generations as technology advances rapidly.

Published: February 2024

W artykule prezentujemy „argumentację” jako pojęcie typologiczne definiowane w kategoriach koncepcji aktów mowy i strategii konwersacyjnych. W pierwszej części artykułu omawiamy historyczne próby ujęcia argumentacji jako aktu mowy i przedstawiamy problemy związane z rolą wykładników językowych, warunków fortunności, stopniem złożoności czynności mowy oraz sposobu ich klasyfikowania. W części drugiej prezentujemy argumentację jako element strategii konwersacyjnej lub makrostrategię konwersacyjną. Zaproponowane ujęcie pozwala ująć argumentacją jako zjawisko funkcjonujące na różnych poziomach złożoności wypowiedzi i konwersacji. Z jednej strony pozwala to wyeksplikować interdyscyplinarny charakter samego zjawiska, stanowiącego przedmiot zainteresowania retoryki, logiki, psychologii i językoznawstwa, z drugiej zaś – ugruntować argumentację jako przedmiot zainteresowania językoznawstwa sensu stricto.The paper presents ‘argumentation’ as a typological concept defined in terms of the theories of speech acts and conversational strategies. In the first part, we discuss historical attempts to define argumentation as a speech act and present issues concerning the role of linguistic indicators, felicity conditions, the complexity of speech acts, and their classification. In the second part, we present argumentation as an element of conversational strategy and macro-strategy. The proposed approach enables capturing argumentation as a phenomenon that functions at different levels of complexity of an utterance and conversation. On the one hand, this allows us to expose the interdisciplinary character of the phenomenon itself, which is the subject of interest of rhetoric, logic, psychology, and linguistics, and on the other, to establish argumentation as the subject of interest of linguistics in the strict sense.
NEW PUBLIC MANAGEMENT IN ADMINISTRATION. EFFICIENCY OF THE MANAGEMENT PROCESS VERSUS LEGAL-ADMINISTRATIVE CONDITIONS
Authors: Paździor Mariusz , Leńczuk Jacek , Jarmuł Michał , Sokołowska-Woźniak Justyna
Published: February 2024

NPM (New Public Management) is a doctrine of management in public administration, derived from economic theory but applied directly in practice. It marks a shift from admin-istration based on rigid procedures and political influence (the so-called bureaucratic mod-el) to management based on the economic grade of performance and the use of market mechanisms (the so-called managerial model). The reasons for adopting the solutions proposed by the NPM also include an attempt to slow down or reverse the proliferation of the administration with regard to its excessive spending and overstaffing. The economic crisis and the need to constantly improve competitiveness in economic activity also entail changes in the functioning of public administration. Solutions taken from business prac-tice, which are also known in economic theory, are becoming increasingly common. These were initially referred to as 'new public management' and are now being developed as the 'co-management concept'.

Authors: Shinoda Tabata Genovese , Meirelles Célia Regina Moretti
Published: February 2024

Over the past few decades, the concern for sustainability as a crucial component in construction has grown, as has the discussion surrounding its integration into the sector, with the purpose of achieving higher qualitative and beneficial efficiency and user experience. In the architectural field, there is a great interest in improving studies of ecological solutions that reinvent building techniques, materiality and the application of energy sources. In this research, the primary methodology employed is the case study approach, centered around the building known as The Crystal, located in London, United Kingdom. Presently, the building serves as the City Hall. In this context, the research objective is to analyze the connection between the local climate and the primary sustainable and technological strategies applied to the project. This analysis is carried out through digital simulations, physical models, and critical analyses. The building was designed by Siemens as a part of the “London Sustainable Cities” program and has received recognition for its energy efficiency measures and the application of bioclimatic architecture from the beginning of its construction. This building embodies a number of sustainable development principles, including the use of geothermal heat pumps for its bioclimatic systems, renewable energy sources, the effective application of natural ventilation and highly effective materials for thermal and acoustic comfort, which, in short, convert this project into a reference within the theme of sustainability and will be studied and detailed within this research.

Introduction: myotonic dystrophy type 1 is a hereditary neuromuscular disease, whose global prevalence is 1/8000, it is clinically heterogeneous and multisystemic.
Objective: to describe the prevalence of Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 in the province of Pinar del Río, Cuba.
Methods: a descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional study was carried out in patients with DM1 registered in the Department of Medical Genetics of the Pinar del Río province, Cuba, between January 2019 and December 2022.The sample was made up of 97 patients.Data were collected from the medical records related to sex, age groups, municipality of residence, popular council to which they belong according to residence and clinical form that allowed prevalence rates to be estimated.Variables were summarized with absolute numbers and percentages.
Results: the prevalence rate for males was 14,4 and for females 19,2 per 100,000 inhabitants. In the municipalities of Mantua and La Palma, prevalence rates of 46,6 and 44,4 per 100,000 inhabitants respectively were reported. The popular councils with very high prevalence rates were: Playuela (172,9 per 100,000 inhabitants), Ovas and Villa II (146,5 and 130,3 per 100,000 inhabitants respectively).
Conclusions: the prevalence of DM1 in Pinar del Río is similar to that of several countries; however, there are communities in the north of the province and isolated communities with higher rates. These data obtained through clinical research reveal the need for molecular studies that allow the design of intervention strategies.

In this sense, STEM education enters to qualify the curriculum and becomes a methodology that gives entry to the understanding of phenomena. Through this research, a model is proposed for the understanding of computational thinking (CT). With and without the use of digital mediation. This article shows the result of a conceptual review of the topics related to the object of study in the last 5 years and the critical analysis of the investigations found. For this reason, it is not a finished project, but rather an advance in the state of the art.

This paper arose in order to disseminate the results achieved as participants of a transdisciplinary research team in the project on protocols needed in virtual education. We thus concluded that training in competencies, digital literacy and autonomy in learning should be prioritized in the teaching of undergraduate engineering courses. Previous studies confirmed the need to promote curricular changes through e-learning in B-learning format. With the same format, the gravitation of a curricular innovation protocol focused on literacy and digital literacy competencies, autonomy and critical thinking, following the indications for engineering education published by CONFEDI (2018), was investigated.
POLITICAL DIMENSIONS OF ISLAMIC RESURGENCE AND GLOBAL DEMOCRATIZATION: NEED FOR CIVILIZATIONAL CO-EXISTENCE
Authors:   Malaysia, Kausar Zeenath
Published: February 2024

There is no doubt that the final decades of the twentieth century have witnessed two important developments - Islamic resurgence and democratization. It is also true that Islamic resurgence and democratization complement each other in some countries. The reason is quite obvious. The authoritarian political regimes of the Muslim world are mostly secular in their approach to politics and modernization. Hence, Islamic movements which form the backbone of Islamic resurgence emerge as the leading movements of opposition which assure not only popular participation of people in politics but also affirm their identification with Islam.

One of the most challenging questions for contemporary societies has been the recognition of cultural differences and the governance over diversity. Cultural and political leaders of complex communities tend to essentialize cultural boundaries by dichotomizing and categorizing differences. This promotes conflict and prevents effective management of cultural diversity. It has been the common experience of a number of contemporary nation states that not only categorize but also dichotomize and isolate minorities within their borders. A classic example of this, though very little known to the world at large, is the case of the Kurds.

Washington's problem is not with Saddam Hussein per se but primarily with Iraq's potential as an independent regional power, which might someday try to opt for strategic deterrence vis-a-vis Israel, and which might also challenge American's custodianship over Arab oil in the future. The United States is the greatest consumer of oil production with around 25% of global consumption, while its production of oil is just 10% of international oil output. The United States imports 11.66 million barrels daily, which can be around 60 % of its national consumption. 59% of this oil is from the Arab Gulf and it is forecasted that this will increase to 60% in the next year.

Usually the question of globalization is linked to issues relating to economic, instrumental-technical (the so-called information-communication technology or for short ICT) and culture and never to Islamic movements. However, the Post September 11, 2001 incident, there are writings in the West that try to relate globalization to Islamic movements'. In this case, globalization is seen as facilitating Islamic movements to be more militant in their postures especially in relation to the United States as a great power. In actual fact, Islamic movements' responses to the United States are varied in the sense that not all Islamic movements show sign of drawing towards militancy. In general it can be argued that Islamic movements' rather critical and radical attitudes toward the United States is basically a reaction to the exploitative nature of Capitalism whereby its hegemonic power is maximized to the fullest, facilitated, mainly by forces of globalization. In this sense, globalization is synonymous with Americanization or its more cynical version, MacDonaldlization.
A BRIEF STUDY OF SOCIO-POLITICAL THOUGHT OF SAYYID QUTB ON THE REFORMATION OF MUSLIM SOCIETY
Authors:   International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia, Ushama Thameem
Published: February 2024

The twentieth century Muslim world has witnessed several scholars and intellectuals whose writings made great impact on the succeed­ing generations of Muslims especially the Muslim youth. Their writings have moulded and shaped a new and comprehensive Islamic vision, that responded to the ideas and doctrines that emerged as a result of the process of secularisation and modernisation of the Muslims. It is believed that only a few Muslim thinkers have directly contributed to the reformu­lation of contemporary Islamic thought. Sayyid Qutb being an activist, a political analyst, a Quranic exegete, a journalist, a poet, a socio-political thinker and a world-reknown Islamic revivalist of the twentieth century, influenced deeply the contemporary Islamic movements. His thought has undoubtedly drawn the attention of several people, for he boldly and uncompromisingly asserted his viewpoints regardless of their consequences.
