Authors: Hayyat Asghar , Sajjad Kumail , Naveed Muhammad
Published: December 2023

This study was made to explore the effect of Green Learning & Developing in the transformation of conventional training systems in the Technical Education and Vocational Training (TEVT) sector toward Green TEVT. In this study, a cross-section design was used, and data was collected from TEVT principals and assistant managers who are part of Green TEVT initiative programs launched by the TEVT Sector Support Program (Deutsche et al. (GIZ)). The revealed results indicate a significant positive impact of Green Learning & Development programs in the formulation of Green Intrinsic Motivation through the partial mediating effect of Environmental Knowledge, which has further contributed to the transformation of conventional training behavior of TEVT employees into Pro-Environmental Behavior and has significantly contributed in the formation of Green TEVT. Yet, the diminishing effect of Green Extrinsic Motivation was observed in this study. Therefore, future researchers, by exploring other factors like Leadership Styles, Sector-Specific Studies, and Implementation of Policies and Regulations as hurdles, can make a significant contribution in this context.

Published: December 2023

Nowadays, the times are growing rapidly, demanding various fields to improve their quality, especially in the world of education. Sustainable education does not only focus on schools located in urban areas, but also voices coming from schools in certain areas, far from the boisterous development of technology, according to the authors have to be heard as a main voice in an investigation. In particular, significant voices emanate out of SMA Negeri 1 Kapuas Hilir and SMK Negeri 1 Kuala Kapuas, Central Kalimantan. Furthermore, it aimed to analyze the methods of improving educational performance in schools. The qualitative method used throughout the interview process involved collecting data from three interviewees or research subjects. Based on gathering data, information, and facts, the researchers found that: educational quality is determined by input factors (condition of students), process (creation of learning atmosphere), and environment (family, community, and nature), as well as facilities and infrastructure (devices that facilitate learning activities). Improving educational performance requires teachers' professionalism as it influences the advancement of educational development in SMA Negeri 1 Kapuas Hilir and SMK Negeri 1 Kuala Kapuas, Central Kalimantan. The results showed that there are directions and activities in upgrading, seminars, training, conducting inter-school visits to gain experience from other school teachers as a source of reference. Furthermore, based on reevaluation, teachers and education officials through research on other schools, saw unique and important steps forward when they looked at the lens of educational problems located in locations distant from hustle and technology acceleration.

Published: December 2023

Basically, the era of globalization has both good and bad impacts on children. One of the most important factors in development and education is morals, because currently morals are increasingly deteriorating. Therefore, the role of parents is very important in determining the right education so that children have good growth and character development. This research aims to determine the urgency of Islamic boarding schools in the contemporary era. This research uses quantitative methods using survey models and in-depth interviews. The survey tool used by researchers is Google From. Then the researchers also conducted in-depth interviews with parents and boarding school administrators. The results of this research show that Islamic boarding schools can be a means of helping a child's moral development in the contemporary era. The conclusion of this study explains that the role of parents is very important in choosing education for children. Therefore, the limitation of this research is that the researcher did not conduct a survey of children's development outside the Islamic boarding school so they cannot compare how a child's morals are, therefore the researcher hopes that future researchers can conduct research on how a child's morals are outside the Islamic boarding school.
The role of China’s Investment in Shaping the Redevelopment of Afghanistan
Authors: Amin Muhammad Al , Ahmadi Mujibur Rahman , Kusumah Haidan Angga
Published: December 2023

Background. The Afghanistan-China strategic relationship is multifaceted, characterized by economic convergences, security cooperation, and mutual diplomatic support. China's Belt and Road Initiative has played a significant role in deepening ties, especially through infrastructure development in Afghanistan.
Purpose. In this paper authors tried to explore Afghanistan and China relations, how China plays an important role in the redevelopment of Afghanistan, discuss the prospects and challenges facing Chinese–Afghan relations, including from a regional perspective and also discussed how China fits into the vacuum left by the US withdrawal.
Method. The method used applies a qualitative method that focuses on looking at social phenomena that occur in society.
Results. At the same time, a rather stable Afghanistan free from threats by militant and terrorist groups could provide opportunities for China and other regional states to contribute to its post-conflict economic reconstruction and development.
Conclusion. At the period since the Taliban took over an Afghanistan emptied of its foreign presence, there has been much more speculation that China will step in to fill the geopolitical, security and economic vacuum left by the West’s withdrawal. China surely has direct interests in a stable, developed and well-governed Afghanistan, not least to prevent spillover and assets in the wider regions of Central and South Asia.
Views of Aceh Tamiang Ulama Against Postponement of Inheritance Distribution
Authors: Hakim Lukmanul
Published: December 2023

Background. Inheritance should be a pleasant thing for the heirs, but sometimes this becomes a catastrophe that causes a rift or break in the family relationship, this is due to the greed of the heirs, including problems in inheritance is the delay in distribution to the heirs.
Purpose. The inheritance is the absolute right of the heirs who should be immediately divided after paying off the debts and assets of the heirs, but because the distribution is not hastened, it has an unfavorable impact on the heirs.
Method. The research method used in this research is qualitative research, this type of research is field research whose main source is the results of interviews in the field.
Results. The results of this study are: 1) The impact of delaying the division of inheritance, namely: The occurrence of family problems / disconnection between heirs, can result in the loss of the value of the inherited property, and the persecution of some heirs because their rights are not fulfilled. 2) The view of the Aceh Tamiang Ulama regarding the delay in the division of inheritance is divided into three laws, namely: Obligatory delay, permissible delay and haram delay. These three laws are adjusted to the circumstances that occur if the delay in the distribution of inheritance is due to doubts about nasab and / or doubts about the life of the heirs, it must be postponed until there is a determination of nasab and / or heirs from the court.
Conclusion. Likewise, delaying the distribution of inheritance due to doubts caused by real pregnancy or doubts about the sex (khunsa) is obligatory until the status of both is clarified. Delaying the distribution of the inheritance, if there is agreement from all the heirs who are entitled to it, and if it is permissible and managed in accordance with shar'i law, is permissible. If delaying the distribution of the inheritance results in injustice to the heirs or results in damage and loss of value to the inheritance, then it is haraam.
Ratiodecidendi of Judge in Imposing Warning Punishment Against Children in Conflict with the Law from the Perspective of Child Protection
Authors: Rakhmatika Devi , Sami’an Sami’an
Published: December 2023

Background. Cases of violence against children still occur frequently in Indonesia. The weak social control of society and the many cases of abuse show that law enforcement in Indonesia is not yet optimal. Purpose. Child Protection has been regulated in Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning amendments to Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection. And regulations regarding the Juvenile Justice System are regulated in Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Justice System, but these regulations are not sufficient to guarantee the cessation of cases of maltreatment against children.
Method. The author uses normative juridical research methods. In this case, the Ratio Decidendi of the Judge does not really see from various points of view, it can be seen from the consideration that in the end the Judge imposed a warning sentence on the Child Convict, and the decision did not explain and pay attention to the rights of child victims.
Results. Because in reality there are still many cases of violence and sexual abuse against children. Case No. 3 Pid.Sus-Anak/2023/PN Mll was a case of maltreatment in which the public prosecutor charged the defendant with Article 170 paragraph (2) to 1 of the Criminal Code Jo. Article 81 of Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System which basically states that juvenile offenders must be detained in a Special Correctional Institution for Children.
Conclusion. Through this paper, it is hoped that law enforcement officials will synergize in implementing child protection and children's rights, especially regarding the guarantee of child protection from violence and harassment.

Uma análise histórica sobre a trajetória dos direitos das mulheres no Brasil
Authors: Mendes Gabriella da Silva , Fonseca Alexandre Brasil Carvalho da
Published: December 2023

Este estudo teve por objetivo trazer uma reflexão acerca da questão da conquista da cidadania pelas mulheres no Brasil, no transcorrer do século XX, analisando as contribuições do Movimento Feminista no processo de luta pela garantia da cidadania e igualdade de gênero. Como objetivos específicos, abordou-se assuntos concernentes à cidadania, Movimento Feminista, direitos políticos e participação política das mulheres. A metodologia utilizada para o desenvolvimento do estudo foi a revisão bibliográfica. Esta revisão bibliográfica se deu por meio de artigos e publicações científicas. A pesquisa foi do tipo exploratória-descritiva, caracterizando-se como qualitativa. Constatou-se que, advindos pouco mais de setenta anos de conquista do direito ao voto, a mulher brasileira ainda não desempenha, de modo pleno, seus direitos enquanto cidadã, onde a cidadania feminina depara-se com limites na dominação masculina, que transcorre valores sociais e morais que orientam a sociedade, e isto é reforçado pela hegemonia da cultura masculina, secularmente inserida na sociedade que baseia, principalmente, os princípios patriarcais. Por fim, concluiu-se que os problemas sobre igualdade de direitos femininos ainda não são enxergados como anteposições nas agendas políticas da atualidade. A percepção social impacta expressivamente na igualdade de gênero, onde a maneira como os indivíduos interpretam as diferenças entre homens e mulheres, definem as relações no trabalho, no sistema jurídico e até na política.

Published: December 2023

Ao longo das décadas, as taxas de natalidade e mortalidade diminuíram, alterando a estrutura etária. O estudo objetiva avaliar as implicações sociais e de saúde desse fenômeno, utilizando dados demográficos do IBGE. Entre 1980 e 2022, a proporção de idosos aumentou significativamente, enquanto a de crianças diminuiu. O envelhecimento, associado a avanços médicos, impacta a dinâmica populacional, demandando estruturas sociais sólidas para atender às demandas dessa nova realidade. Ressalta-se a importância de considerar a heterogeneidade da população idosa e destaca-se o papel do governo na garantia de uma assistência integral a essa crescente parcela da sociedade. A análise abordou disparidades regionais, indicando a necessidade de políticas específicas. Apesar dos avanços, persistem lacunas na compreensão da diversidade da população idosa e na eficácia das estratégias governamentais.
β-Cyfluthrin biodegradation gene(s) associated in plasmid of Pseudomonas stutzeri (strain S1)
Authors: SINGH JITENDRA , SINGH DILEEP K , SANDHU KIRAN VEER , JHA SUNIL KUMAR , GOPAL MADHUBAN
Published: December 2023

Pseudomonas stutzeri strain S1 was found capable for biodegradation of β-cyfluthrin. Results indicated that the b- cyfluthrin degrading gene(s) of P. stutzeri strain S1 were located on a plasmid. This plasmid already had the gene(s) for nalidixic acid resistance. Another gene, Tn5 was inserted into the plasmid from Escherichia coli S17. The mutated P. stutzeri acquired resistance for nalidixic acid and kanamycin antibiotics and became incapable to degrade β-cyfluthrin. Probably insertion of Tn5 distressed the sequence of β-cyfluthrin degrading gene. This mutant was assayed to locate the β-cyfluthrin biodegrading gene. The mutant was able to transfer the Tn5 inserted plasmid in another strain of E. coli DH5a, which was confirmed by acquiring kanamycin resistance in E. coli (DH5a) and PCR analysis. Plasmid of the P. stutzeri S1 was eliminated using ethidium bromide along with heat shock treatment, and then this strain lost biodegradation activity of β-cyfluthrin. Thus, it has been validated that the biodegradation gene(s) were present on the plasmid. The plasmid was identified as a DNA circular molecule of 18.0 kb size.
Bio-efficacy of imidacloprid and bifenthrin against mustard aphid (Lipaphis erysimi) on Brassica rapa subsp oleifera
Authors: DEVEE ANJUMONI , BARUAH A A L H
Published: December 2023

The efficacy, relative toxicity, residual toxicity and dissipation behaviour of imidacloprid and bifenthrin were evaluated against mustard aphid [Lipaphis erysimi (Kalt.)] during 2006-07 and 2007-08. Imidacloprid (RiBo 17.8 SL @ 20, 40 and 60 g ai/ha), bifenthrin (Marker 20 per cent EC @ 60, 80 and 100 g ai/ha) and deltamethrin (as standard check) (Decis 2.8 per cent EC @ 15 g ai/ha) were evaluated against mustard aphid, Lipaphis erysimi (Kalt.) and was found effective in reducing the aphid population in comparision to control. The highest mortality of aphids and marketable yield was registered by imidacloprid @ 60 g ai/ha, while highest cost benefit ratio was found in imidacloprid @ 20 g ai/ha and proved sufficient to optimize the yield. The LC50 values were 0.00017 and 0.00015 for imidacloprid, 0.00152 and 0.00122 for bifenthrin, 0.00199 and 0.00134 for deltamethrin, after 24 and 48 hr of treatment, respectively. Imidacloprid was 8.93 times and bifenthrin 1.10 times more toxic than deltamethrin after 48 hr of treatment. For evaluation of persistence and residual toxicity of imidacloprid the mortality data were taken up to 48 hr, within different exposure periods of 1, 3, 5, 10 and 15 days after application of insecticides. Based on the index of persistence toxicity, the order of effectiveness for the L. erysimi were imidacloprid @ 60 g a.i/ha (1014.23)> imidacloprid @ 40 g a.i/ha (931.37) > imidacloprid @ 20 g a.i/ha (820.41)> deltamethrin 15 g a.i/ha (707.93)> bifenthrin @ 100 g a.i/ha (659.76)> bifenthrin @ 80 g a.i/ha (611.12)>bifenthrin @ 60g a.i/ha (545.25). The dissipation behaviour of imidacloprid under field condition on Brassica rapa L. subsp. oleifera (toria) crop was studied in tender shoots and seeds. The initial deposits of imidacloprid @ 20, 40 and 60 g a.i /ha were 0.830, 1.126 and 1.280, respectively. Imidacloprid residues reached below its detectable level after 5th and 10th day of its application at lower and higher rates. The half life values were 1.44, 1.96, 1.67 days for imidacloprid @ 20, 40 and 60 g a.i/ha, respectively. Based on the observations, a waiting period of at least four days after imidacloprid application @ 20 g a.i/ha is considered safe from point of health hazards due to toxic effect of residues in leaves.

Authors: NEWAJ RAM , DHYANI S K , SINGH TRALOKI , NEEKHER SHIKHA , BARONIA CHHAVI
Published: December 2023

A field experiment was conducted during 2006–08 at Jhansi to elucidate the influence of canopy pruning in white siris [Albizia procera (Roxb.) Benth.] on light interception and grain yield of intercrop. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with three replications. Blackgram (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper) - mustard (Brassica juncia L. Czern. and Coss.) crop sequence was taken as intercrop. The pruning of tree canopy was done with 3 pruning regimes namely 70% canopy pruning, 50% canopy pruning and control (unpruned tree). The results reveal that the growth of A. procera (dbh, height and canopy diameter) was significantly (P= 0.05) higher in control (unpruned trees) compared with 50% canopy pruning and 70% canopy pruning. Grain yield of blackgram was two times higher in 70% canopy pruning than the yield obtained with unpruned trees. Similarly the yield of mustard was three times higher in 70% canopy pruning than unpruned trees during both the years. The grain yield of intercrop under 50% canopy pruning was also significantly higher than unpruned trees. Light interception by intercrops was higher under 70% canopy pruning and lower with unpruned trees. The light interception increased with increasing distances from tree base. The grain yield of intercrops was linearly correlated with light interception.
Genetic improvement for yield and tuber size in Andigena potatoes (Solanum tuberosum subsp andigena) after one cycle of recurrent selection
Authors: KUMAR RAJ , GOPAL J , PANDEY S K
Published: December 2023

Improvement of Andigena genotypes for tuber characters was attempted by making Andigena × Andigena crosses. Andigena accessions could be considerably improved for characters like yield and tuber size by crossing among themselves. Progenies of different cross types like full-sibs, half-sibs, back crosses and cross between unrelated parents among the improved Andigena clones of first cycle of selection were evaluated for tuber characters related to yield to know the best approach for further improvement of Andigena clones for these characters. Half-sibs and crosses between unrelated parents progenies were significantly better than full-sibs and back crosses progenies for the characters yield and average tuber weight, suggesting thereby that for further improvement of Andigena it is important to maintain heterozygosity. The results of the present study show that recurrent selection technique can be useful for improvement of Andigena genotypes.

Authors: CHELLIAH ANURADHA , GUPTA GORAKH PRASAD , KARUPPIAH SASIKUMAR , KUMAR POLUMETLA ANANDA
Published: December 2023

The interaction of two crystal proteins, Cry1Ac and Cry1Jb was evaluated against cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera). The 50% lethal concentrations (LC50s) were estimated to be 2.29 ng/ml and 6 039 ng/ml for Cry1Ac and Cry1Jb, respectively. When mixtures of these toxins in different proportion were assayed, the expected LC50s were lower than the observed LC50s, indicating a clear antagonism between the two toxins. Ligand blotting showed that both the toxins bind to 110kDa APN corroborating the results. This is the first report of antagonism of Cry1Jb with Cry1Ac toxin against cotton bollworm. This trait may prove useful for combating insecticide resistance and for improving the activity of microbial insecticides.
Effect of intercropping millets, pulses and oilseeds on yield and economics of castor (Ricinus communis) under rainfed conditions
Authors: BASITH M A , MOHAMMAD SHAIK
Published: December 2023

A field experiment was conducted at NAARM during kharif 2007 and 2008 to find out suitable intercrop to be planted in castor under rainfed conditions. There were six intercrops, viz sorghum, pearl millet, greengram, blackgram, soybean and sunflower tested under two planting geometries of the base crop castor. The results of the experiment showed that the intercropping of two rows of blackgram between the uniform rows of castor produced additional yield of 338 and 266 kg/ha without reducing the yield of castor during the two years respectively. The intercropping of two rows of blackgram or greengram in uniform rows of castor or three rows between the paired rows of castor emerged as statistically superior systems with higher crop equivalent yields than the sole crops during both the years of investigation. The intercropping of greengram and blackgram between uniform rows of castor maximized the gross and net returns per hectare and the RNR indices during the two years. The study confirmed that under divergent conditions of rainfall both in quantity and distribution castor planted in uniform rows at spacing of 90 cm can be efficiently intercropped with two rows of blackgram. This will produce bonus yield of the pulse. The intercropping of greengram was also equally profitable.

Published: December 2023

A study was conducted to work out the genetic divergence for yield, morpho-physiological and quality traits in timely sown restricted irrigated and rainfed conditions. In the pooled analysis, cluster IV and V had 33 genotypes each and cluster III contained 29 genotypes, while cluster VI had 22 genotypes. Eighteen and 15 genotypes were included in cluster I and II, respectively. Maximum intra-cluster distance was reported in cluster III followed by VI, II, I and IV and minimum intra- cluster distance was found for cluster V. Genotypes included in III, VI and II revealed maximum diversity among themselves. Highest inter-cluster distance was observed between cluster II and III followed by I and III, I and VI. Moderate inter-cluster distance was noticed between II and IV in the pooled analysis. Parentage of 150 genotypes revealed that genotypes were belonging to different eco-geographical areas were included in the same cluster. This indicated that there is no association between clustering pattern and eco- geographical distribution of genotypes.

Authors: MANDAL GOUTAM , DHALIWAL H S , MAHAJAN B V C
Published: December 2023

A study was conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana during 2006–08 in winter crop of guava cv. Sardar to evaluate the influence of pre-harvest foliar application of naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and potassium nitrate on quality attributes in different interval of cold storage. The plants were sprayed with NAA and potassium nitrate at colour break stage of fruit and harvested at optimum maturity, packed in CFB boxes with newspaper lining and stored at 6- 8oC and 90-95% RH. Fruits treated with NAA (100 ppm) effectively reduced spoilage maintained higher fruit firmness, TSS and ascorbic acid and remain slightly desirable after 30 days of storage. Thus, pre-harvest spray with NAA (100 ppm) seems to be effective method for decreasing post- harvest losses and maintaining quality of guava fruits.

Published: December 2023

The game can be considered an educational and teaching tool. It is a very favorable resource to alleviate the problems faced by teachers and students in the discipline of chemistry. Therefore, this work is an adaptation of a television game, developed in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years of High School, aiming to analyze the development of students during gamification. In a first moment, a theoretical class with experimental practice was adopted, and in a second moment, the application of the game. Questionnaires were applied to the students before and after the execution of the game, aiming to analyze the learning of the discipline and the content proposed by the teacher. Following this context, distinguish as propositional the use of contextualization and interdisciplinarity as a teaching methodology, placing the game as a resource that contemplates these points, but in an instigating way. From the results obtained, we can conclude that the use of the game contributed to the students' learning about general chemistry and through a differentiated and contextualized teaching.

Published: December 2023

Learning istima’ and kalam are important language elements in order to improve students’ Arabic language skills. As a form of awareness of the importance of linguistic elements, lecturers in the Arabic language education study program at UIN Sunan Kalijaga integrate istima’ and kalam learning with technology, namely by utilizing online media. This innovation is based on needs analysis and ease of use of online media to achieve istima’ and kalam learning objectives. This research aims to describe the process of learning istima’ and kalam using online media for students of the Arabic Language Education study program at UIN Sunan Kalijaga. In carrying out this research the author used a qualitative descriptive research method, with data collection techniques using observation and documentation. The research results show that istima’ and kalam learning uses WhatsApp, Zoom Meeting and E-Learning media. Before the lecture begins, the lecturer first distributes special material in audio form via the WhatsApp group, so that students can first listen and try to understand the material independently. After the lecture begins, all students enter the Zoom Meeting to practice kalam, students are asked to verbally express what only what is understood from the previous istima’ material. As for the final stage, the lecturer gives assignments via e-learning related to the theme of istima’ and kalam material that has been studied in writing.

Some Properties of Deferred Nörlund I-Statistical Convergence in Probability, Mean, and Distribution for Sequences of Random Variables
Authors: Kişi Ömer
Published: December 2023

This paper investigates the concept of deferred Nörlund I -statistical convergence in probability, mean of order r, distribution, and explores the relationships among these notions. We present a novel approach to deferred Nörlund I-statistical convergence, which allows for a deeper understanding of the convergence behavior in various contexts. We examine the convergence properties in terms of probability, mean of order r, and distribution, providing a comprehensive analysis of their interdependencies. Our findings contribute to the field of statistical convergence theory, shedding light on the deferred Nörlund I-statistical convergence and its connections with probability, mean of order r, and distribution.

Authors: Arjuna Manage Kitidduwa Manage Geeth
Published: December 2023

This research investigates the profound role of language in education within the context of the Kandyan Kingdom and colonial-era Sri Lanka. Specifically, it scrutinizes the impact of adopting English as the medium of instruction on the preservation of indigenous languages. The study delves into the primary languages employed in the traditional education system of the Kandyan Kingdom and their vital contributions to knowledge transmission and cultural heritage preservation. It also examines the language policies enacted during the colonial period and their repercussions on the language of instruction in schools. Moreover, the research explores the consequences of adopting English as the medium of instruction, analyzing its influence on the proficiency, usage, and status of indigenous languages. Meticulous investigation is conducted into the attitudes and responses of the local population, especially educators, towards this transition. Furthermore, the study assesses the implications of the shift to English medium education on access to education for various socio-cultural groups within the Kandyan Kingdom. The research also delves into the efforts undertaken during the colonial period to promote and safeguard indigenous languages within the education system. The analysis extends to the post-colonial education system in the Kandyan Kingdom, evaluating the current status of indigenous languages and any initiatives aimed at their revival and promotion. By drawing comparisons between historical language policies and practices in the Kandyan Kingdom and those in other colonial regions or countries, this research aims to provide valuable insights that can inform contemporary language policies and practices in Sri Lanka.

Conceptual Metaphor in Kurdish Economic News Reports
Authors: Kurdi Naz Jamal Mohammed , Hoshang Farooq Jawad
Published: December 2023

When conceptual metaphor theory developed, new perspectives have been opened into the way language can be manipulated in our world of the immediate and faraway surroundings of which economic news reports. This report is one of the most pervasive types we constantly encounter in our daily interactions. Additionally, conceptual metaphor has a significant role in comprehending abstract and complicated economic expressions since it depends on the act of mapping between two domains; the concrete domain is mapped onto the abstract domain. The former is the source domain and the latter is the target domain. The present study highlights conceptual metaphor’s salient roles and implications in selected Kurdish economic news reports. It aims to identify, qualify and quantify the classifications of conceptual metaphor; structural, ontological and orientational, adopted in Kurdish economic news reports; therefore, three economic news reports have been selected from Rudaw and Kurdstat News which are two Kurdish news websites in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The data has been chosen randomly for each type of conceptual metaphor and has been analysed accordingly. The results indicate that the most dominant pattern is structural metaphor and the least frequent is orientational.
