Heparin is a highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) consisting of repeating disaccharide units with an average molecular weight of 12-15 kilodaltons (kD). Most heparin prepared commercially for infusion into human patients is isolated from the gut mucosa of pigs in the form termed “unfractionated heparin” (UFH). Fractionation of UFH by various methods results in low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) with 60% of the polysaccharide chains having a molecular weight less than 8 kD.
The anticoagulant effect of UFH is mediated by interactions with anti-thrombin (AT), a serine protease inhibitor of thrombin. Binding of UFH to AT activates and accelerates inhibition by AT of the coagulation proteases thrombin and Factor Xa. It is estimated that about one third of hospitalized patients or 12 million patients per year receive UFH and LMWHsthese complexes engages FcγRIIa (CD32) receptors on the labeled platelets, causing platelet activation and release of 14C-serotonin that can be measured in a beta counter instrument. The SRA is a technically demanding and expensive test performed routinely in only a few specialty laboratories. It is therefore impractical to perform the SRA on a timely basis when HIT is suspected and antibody detection is urgently needed to aid in patient management decisions. In addition, the high cost of the SRA, its limited availability, and the requirement for use of radioactivity make it less practical from a laboratory perspective than other approaches, particularly the invention described herein.
Most HIT antibodies are of the IgG isotype. However, IgA antibodies are common and IgM antibodies are not rare (Suh 1997, Greinacher 2007). It

The population structure of *Campylobacter jejuni* is now known to be weakly clonal, which is a reflection of the plasticity of the *Campylobacter* genome. This is susceptible to point mutations and genomic instability and can readily take up foreign DNA. This results in an enormously diverse population of types regardless of which typing system is used. Nevertheless, it is now clear that some stable clones of *C. jejuni* have persisted over time and distance ([@bib40]), and such clones may provide insight on changing trends. The introduction of Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) as a harmonized epidemiological tool will, in the future, enable the following of population changes.

2.4. *L. monocytogenes*
-----------------------

There are of course many bacteria transmitted via food-borne routes and causing disease in humans. The focus of policy makers tends to be on those pathogens described above on the basis of predominance in outbreaks, severity of disease outcomes, major prevalence of infections and/or public perception. More recent approaches to measurement of burden of disease suggest that such criteria may not always indicate the relative importance of less well-recognized food-borne pathogens. Moreover, the importance of "minor food-borne" pathogens may change over time. *L. monocytogenes* is one such pathogen. Although, listeriosis is a relatively rare disease, the infection has a high fatality rate (20--30%). *L. monocytogenes*baseline study of the prevalence of MRSA in breeder pigs is ongoing to better understand the epidemiology of this emerging strain in Europe. A recent Dutch study showed that MRSA can be detected at very low concentrations (\< 10 cfu/g) in unheated meats from various domestic animals and fowl. This survey indicated that the overall prevalence of MRSA was 11.9% of 2217 retail samples of raw meat, with highest prevalence in poultry meat. For all meat types, the MRSA strains were predominantly (85%) of the NT ST398 type ([@bib9]). Thus, other livestock may be a significant source of MRSA. Nevertheless, it is currently unclear to what degree the MRSA types in animals, and in particular the emerging clone ST398, are food safety, or even public health, risks.

Cases of illness following


the treatment should be as individual as possible. However, in the case of poultry and farmed fish this is not practical, and mass-treatment is accepted following a relevant diagnosis. Metaphylaxis, where clinically healthy animals are treated along with their diseased "neighbours", should be avoided. Prophylaxis should be minimised. Local treatment should be preferred to systemic treatment when the infection is localized and accessible to topical products. Consideration should be given to the potential public health consequences of resistance to the antimicrobial in question. In general, narrow-spectrum (and older) antimicrobials, if appropriate and available, should be preferred to broad-spectrum drugs. Furthermore, veterinarians should only prescribe antimicrobial formulations that are approved for the species and the indication concerned. Antimicrobials identified as critically important in human medicine (<http://whqlibdoc.who.int/hq/1998/WHO_EMC_ZDI_98.12_(p1-p130).pdf>, [www.who.int/foodborne_disease/resistance/en/](http://www.who.int/foodborne_disease/resistance/en/); [www.who.int/foodborne_disease/resistance/antimicrobials_human.pdf](http://www.who.int/foodborne_disease/resistance/antimicrobials_human.pdf)), shouldonly be used in animals if their use is justified. These include the fluoroquinolones and the 3rd and 4th generation cephalosporins.

Clearly antimicrobial resistance is a rapidly changing challenge. The evolution and adaptation of the bacterial agents and the changes in antimicrobial use, whether commercially or legislatively driven, are major influences on the impact of antimicrobial resistance on public health. Therefore the monitoring of antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial usage in human and animals should be an integral part of the prevention and control of antimicrobial resistance. Such data provides useful information on trends in resistance, which are necessary for risk assessment and risk management and a basis for choosing, implementing and evaluating interventions ([www.who.int/foodsafety/publications/micro/mar04/en/index.html](http://www.who.int/foodsafety/publications/micro/mar04/en/index.html).

4. Food-borne viral agents
==========================

Virology is a rapidly expanding science, leading to the discovery of new viruses


outbreaks.

In the case of food-borne parasites, many elements are still lacking to fulfil a risk-based approach as proposed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission, and which is required to implement any risk-based control program. In many cases, parasitic food-borne outbreaks are either not recognised or not identified. In particular, the recovery of parasite stages from food products needs considerably more research. Molecular identification of parasites is now increasingly important but is still immature compared with bacterial and viral identification methods. The establishment of a European database to study *Cryptosporidium* and *Giardia* isolates is one of the challenges for the future (<https://hypocrates.rivm.nl/bnwww/MedVetNet/>; <http://www.hpa-bioinfodatabases.org.uk/zoopnet/>).

The factors contributing to the increased concern in food-borne parasitic infections are largely the same as for all food-borne pathogens, and some specific examples are of current interest.simple measures including the strict personal hygiene of food handlers and the use of potable water for food processing. For example, the use of sewage or slurry for the irrigation of fruits and vegetables that are eaten raw should be prohibited for a period of ten months preceding harvest. Finally, consumers should be aware of the risks of eating raw food and the possible routes of getting food-borne infections.

The control of most parasitic diseases is complicated due to their presence in wildlife reservoirs and the lack of vaccines for livestock. One control strategy under consideration is interference with the often complex life cycle of the parasite. For example, *Toxoplasma gondii* is a ubiquitous parasite using almost all warm-blooded vertebrates as hosts, including humans. Humans can become infected by


ingestion of oocysts, excreted by cats, via contaminated soil or water, or foods. A second means of transmission is the ingestion of tissue cysts present in raw or undercooked meat or meat products from so-called intermediate hosts (e.g. sheep and cattle). Even vertical transmission can occur, from mother to child, when women become infected during pregnancy. However, cats are the only definitive hosts for *Toxoplasma*, responsible for shedding oocysts into the environment. Effective vaccination and/or treatment of cats in order to prevent shedding of oocysts would break the cycle and reduce environmental contamination.

The expertise in, and awareness of, parasitology in general, and food-borne transmission in particular, is limited. Identification of risk factors, in particular, is hampered by long incubation periods. In addition, because of a lack of toolsgenerates bass and lower mid tones.

In all other respects, the T20, provided for review by Headphone Zone, is very similar to the T10 – from the injection moulded stainless steel earpieces to the heavy duty oxygen-free copper cable to the 3.5 mm gold-plated jack that looks like it belongs in a cable to connect full size audio components such as an amplifier.

The T20 comes with three interchangeable filters that fit on the nozzle and can fine-tune the sound for reference (or flat), enhanced treble and enhanced bass. This can be a little tricky as one has to remove the silicone tip, unscrew the filter that’s fitted and replace it with another one – not easy if you have big fingers.

It’s being used by Netflix, Facebook, Google, Cloudflare and a host of other companies to implement things like blazing fast load balancing, DDoS mitigation and performance monitoring.

In the past few months I’ve been working with Red Sift on RedBPF, a BPF toolkit for Rust. Red Sift uses RedBPF to power the security monitoring agent InGRAINd. Peter recently blogged about RedBPF and InGRAINd, and ran a workshop at RustFest Barcelona.

The quickest BPF crash course

BPF is a virtual machine that allows running user defined programs in the kernel when certain events happen on a Linux system. Say for example you want to monitor suspicious file activity, log network response latency or even trace user space apps – you can write small BPF programs, request that they get attached to the right place in the kernel, and implement the necessary instrumentation.

The BPF VM uses its own instruction set. You can write the bytecode directly, but people typically use bpftrace or write C code and compile it with the BPF Compiler Collection (BCC).

bpftrace is an amazing tool that lets you write BPF programs using an ad-hoc, high level language. It is-6232?

Patient values encompass the personal concerns, expectations, cultural influences and characteristics of individuals during the clinical encounter. The best research evidence draws on the highest quality of clinically related research. The integration of these three elements increases the potential for positive health outcomes.

EBP requires the health professional to apply the best available evidence to assist with their clinical decision making. \[[@B4]\] The practice of EBP consists of the following key steps;

1\. Converting clinical scenarios into a structured answerable question,

2\. Searching the literature to


which it was implemented.\[[@B5]\]

Has assessment of EBP competence previously been investigated?
--------------------------------------------------------------

A systematic review published in 2001 investigated the effects of teaching EBP skills to health professionals with respect to their EBP competence. \[[@B6]\] It identified one randomised controlled trial (RCT), which concluded that teaching EBP skills in a post-graduate environment increased participants\' EBP knowledge and skills. However, a limitation of that RCT was that no validated assessment tool was applied to distinguish the effects of pre/post training in EBP. Rather, participants were asked to complete a \'self-assessment\' of their EBP competencies. Self-review is a subjective form of assessment, with participants often factoring other variables that they perceive may have influenced their performance, thereby skewing the actual performance and outcome. \[[@B7]\] Participants are also prone to experiencing recall bias,of EBP process in order to adequately answer the open ended questions relating to the clinical scenarios. The *Fresno*tool has been validated with medical residents and has shown to have good inter-rater reliability, since it requires expert knowledge to assess open ended answers. The *Fresno*tool is the only standardised, objective measure of EBP competence currently available, since it measures the participants\' knowledge and skill across the four key EBP steps. It requires the participant to demonstrate their knowledge, competence, performance and action across all four components to successfully demonstrate EBP competence. \[[@B2]\] Although the *Fresno*tool assesses complete EBP competence, it is limited in its applications as it has only been developed for use in medicine. Therefore, it cannot be used to assess EBP competence in other health disciplines

the model, since all of them have limitations regarded separately \[[@B38-ijerph-17-01554]\]: the χ^2^ likelihood ratio statistic, the comparative fit index (CFI) \[[@B39-ijerph-17-01554]\], the Tucker--Lewis index (TLI), the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) and its associated 90% confidence interval \[[@B40-ijerph-17-01554]\], and the standardized root mean square residual (SRMR). Hu and Bentler's reference work was applied to judge fit indices \[[@B41-ijerph-17-01554]\]. Thereby, CFI and TLI values greater than 0.95, RMSEA and SRMR values less than 0.08, support a good model fit \[[@B41-ijerph-17-01554]\]. For comparison of alternative models, the Akaike information criterion \[[@B42-ijerph-17-01554]\] was applied, which indicates better fitting models by smaller values.

Comey was asked whether “the Russian activity in the 2016 election [was] a one-off proposition, or is this part of a long-term strategy? Will they be back?” His reply: “Oh, it is a long-term practice of theirs. It’s stepped up a notch in a significant way in ‘16. They’ll be back.”

So if the value of the information Winner made public were the sole criteria, she should probably be lionized in the same way that many people have lauded Edward Snowden. But there are other important questions that need to be asked when evaluating whether a leak of classified material is justified. First, could the leak put intelligence operatives or others in danger? That doesn’t appear to be the case here. The Intercept was careful to redact portions ofthe document that might have revealed the NSA’s “sources and methods.”

Then, could the leaker have achieved the same ends going through normal channels?

There’s a lot that organizations can do reduce the effects of disgruntlement. One obvious thing that makes it less likely that insiders will act against an organization is to have the leaders of that organization be squeaky-clean. One possible motive in this case, or in other cases of leaking, is a concern that the people at the top of the administration are not letting justice be served in terms of having fair reviews and an impartial

Defendants first move to dismiss Plaintiffs complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction under Rule 12(b)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.[7] In considering a Rule 12(b)(1) motion to dismiss, this court must "construe the [c]omplaint liberally and treat all well-pleaded facts as true, according the plaintiff the benefit of all reasonable inferences."[8] The court may also consider extrinsic materials, which include exhibits attached to the pleadings and any evidentiary materials submitted by the parties.[9] In doing so, this court does not convert Defendants' motion to dismiss into a motion for summary judgment.[10] "'[T]he party invoking the jurisdiction of a federal court carriesthe burden of proving its existence.'"[11]
*12 2. The False Claims Act
The False Claims Act prohibits the submission of false or fraudulent claims for payment to the federal government.[12] The FCA, in relevant part, imposes liability on any person who "knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, to . . . the United States Government . . . a false or fraudulent claim for payment or approval," or who "knowingly makes, uses, or causes to be made or used, a false record or statement to get a false or fraudulent claim paid or approved by the Government."[13] Liability under the FCA, therefore, attaches only to the submission of a fraudulent claim for payment.[14] Liability does not attach as a result of the underlying fraudulent conduct or to the government's


action was apt to be spurious, driven only by the lure of the [FCA]'s sizable damages."[35]
The ultimate result of the pre-1986 jurisdictional bar was a significant decrease in the use of the FCA's qui tam provisions.[36] The pre-1986 limitation, furthermore, barred many meritorious and nonparasitic actions.[37] In 1986, Congress, fearing the growth of widespread and unchecked fraud against the government, set out to strike a new balance between encouraging private discovery and prosecution of fraud and preventing only those truly parasitic lawsuits.[38]
Through the 1986 amendments, Congress sought to encourage more private enforcement actions.[39] Congress accomplished this goal by increasing financial awards to private plaintiffs, lowering a plaintiff's burden of proof, and allowing a private plaintiff to participate in actions in which the government elects to intervene.[40] In doingcivil, or administrative hearing, in a congressional, administrative, or Government Accounting Office report, hearing, audit, or investigation, or from the news media, unless . . . the person bringing the action is an original source of the information.[48]
In assessing jurisdiction under the public disclosure bar, courts must examine three different issues. First, the court must determine whether the allegations of fraud in Plaintiff's complaint were "publically disclosed" before Plaintiff filed his action. Second, the court must examine whether Plaintiff's allegations are "based upon" that public disclosure. If the answer to either of these questions is "no," then the inquiry ends and this court has jurisdiction over Plaintiff's claims. If the answers to the first two questions are "yes," then the court must consider whether Plaintiff is an "original


Defendants next wrote a letter to the FDA further detailing the Genotropin issues. On May 21, 2003, Defendants met with senior OIG officials to discuss Defendants' conduct related to Genotropin. At this meeting, OIG agents informed Defendants that they had assigned an investigative agent to the matter. On June 3, 2003, Defendants sent a second letter to the OIG, a copy of which they sent to the DOJ, with additional details regarding their off-label Genotropin activities. Defendants here argue that these disclosures are sufficient to satisfy the "public disclosure" prong of the FCA's jurisdictional bar.
*16 In support of their argument, Defendants rely on United States ex rel. Mathews v. Bank of Farmington,[49] in which the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals held that "[d]isclosure of information to a competentthat is distinct, separate from, and independent of the government. Although the government does represent the general public, it does not become the public itself. The phrase "government official" is simply not interchangeable with the common conception of the general public. To construe the term "public" as a synonym for the government or for government officials is a linguistic stretch this court is unwilling to make.
The Mathews court's holding, and Defendants' argument, moreover, conflict with the history of the FCA and the public policy underlying the 1986 amendments to the statute.[62] In 1986, Congress rejected the FCA's pre-1986 jurisdictional limitation, which barred qui tam actions that were based on information that the government already had in its possession.[63] The Mathews court's rule, taken to its logical extreme, represents


delineated. For instance, must a plaintiffs complaint derive entirely from the public disclosure? Or does the plaintiffs complaint need only derive a portion of its information from the public disclosure? If so, how much is sufficient to constitute a complaint "based upon" that public disclosure? Is it enough that plaintiffs basic framework of knowledge is derived from the public disclosure, even when all of his specific factual allegations are derived through his own individual investigations? There also exists the corresponding question of how much independent knowledge is sufficient for a plaintiff to qualify as an original source? These questions are not easy questions to answer,[95] and this court need not answer them here.
Depending on the answers to these questions, there may be cases in which enough of theU.S.C. § 3730(e)(4))).

Dean, 729 F.2d 1100 (7th Cir.1984) (holding that, under the pre-1986 jurisdictional limitation, a claim by the state which discovered the fraud, investigated the fraud, disclosed the fraud to the federal government, and which was the original source of the information was jurisdictionally barred).

the original source to have directly or indirectly provided the entity that publically discloses the information with that information, Plaintiff would still qualify as an original source. Through his employment with Defendants, Plaintiff discovered the Genotropin fraud and disclosed his findings to his superiors within Pharmacia and Pfizer. Plaintiff's actions, in fact, initiated Defendants' internal investigation and ultimately led to Defendants' voluntary disclosure to government officials.
[120]  Having found jurisdiction to hear Plaintiff's federal FCA claim, this court finds that it has similar jurisdiction to hear Plaintiff's state claims, all of which are based on statutes with jurisdictional bars virtually identical to the FCA's public disclosure bar. See Cal. Gov't Code § 12652(d)(3)(A); Del.Code Ann. tit. 6, § 1206(c); D.C.Code § 2-308-15(c)(2)(A); Fla.

The $\text{O}_{2}^{-}$ generation rate was declined whereas the H~2~O~2~ content and GPX activity were increased at 6 HAS (Figures [4A,E](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). The activity of SOD was initially increased to catalyze the dismutation of $\text{O}_{2}^{-}$ into oxygen and H~2~O~2~ at 6 HAS (Figure [4B](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). However, the activities of POD and CAT in charge of the conversion of H~2~O~2~ to H~2~O were decreased at 6 HAS (Figures [4B,C](#F4){ref-type="fig"}). Moreover, the activities of enzymes (i.e., APX, MDHAR, DHAR, and GR) as well as the contents of AsA and DHA in GSH-AsA cycle were also decreased at 6 HAS (Figures [4C--E,G](#F4){ref-type="fig"}), so did the contents of GSSG and GSH (Figure [4H](#F4){ref-type="fig"}) and the activity of GST (Figure [4F](#F4){ref-type="fig"}).

In addition, mitochondria ATP synthase, NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, and glycine cleavage system T protein were accumulated in cells at 6 HAS (Table [1](#T1){ref-type="table"}). However, nine chloroplast- and/or cytoplasm- located proteins involved in pentose phosphate pathway, glyco-metabolism, pyruvate metabolism, and starch/sucrose metabolism were decreased at 6 HAS (Table [2](#T2){ref-type="table"}).

To investigate the changes of phosphoproteins upon palmella formation, stable isotope dimethyl labeling-based MS approaches were applied to analyze phosphoproteins, 137 phosphorylation sites were identified (Figure [6A](#F6){ref-type="fig"}), representing 100 phosphoproteins in 12 functional categories (Figure [6C](#F6){ref-type="fig"}). Among them, 54 phosphorylation sites were quantified (Figure [6B](#F6){ref-type="fig"}), representing 40 unique phosphoproteins (Figure [6D](#F6){ref-type="fig"} and Supplemental Tables [S3](#SM3){ref-type="supplementary-material"}, [S4](#SM4){ref-type="supplementary-material"}). The amino acid sequences of the 137 identified and 54 quantified phosphorylation sites were shown in Supplemental Table [S4](#SM4){ref-type="supplementary-material"}. The number of phosphopeptides or phosphorylation sites significantly changed at least a 1.5-fold in three replicates were shown in Supplemental Table [S5](#SM5){ref-type="supplementary-material"}. Among quantified phosphoproteins, photosynthesis (13%), signaling (13%) and cell structure (13%) were over-represented (Figure [6D](#F6){ref-type="fig"}).

Chris Black says that at the time the writers didn’t know the pressure and scrutiny being placed up on Berman and Braga, they always saw it begin and end at them. Braga didn’t communicate what was going on with the higher ups. Braga is surprised and apologizes for not doing a better job communicating.

They discuss the boom with broadband internet, and people being widely Internet literate, so there was tons of immediate feedback from fans, which was really hard to take for the writers. David A. Goodman was the first one to start posting under his own real-world name as his screen name and responding to fans, Mike Sussman soon followed.

Mobile-First Indexing: Everything we know, and how it could affect you

11/04/2017

For the past five to six months the search industry has been buzzing with talk around the biggest change to Google search results for quite some time – the mobile-first index.

In the midst of this noise, it is very easy to get lost with what you actually need to know about the update.

This post will give you a quick overview of what the update entails, as well as the main things to check for on your site to prevent a loss in traffic.

What is the Mobile-First Index?

The mobile-first index is a change in the way Google is going to index content.

Currently, Google looks at the desktop version of a site and then bases how it will rankget more aggressive in penalizing ad heavy sites with intrusive interstitials.

I expect that future core updates will be harsher on sites that ruin the mobile experience of the site with ads. If this is something that you do, update your sites so ads are less intrusive. It’s bad for your brand, users and traffic. There is a way to implement ads without ruining your site.

To summarize

The mobile index is going to be a significant change in the way Google ranks sites. To ensure you are not negatively impacted, make sure that your user experience is similar across both the mobile and desktop site.

If you do not have a responsive site, make sure you check to see if you have any of the above issues. It may also be


without totally, you know, messing up. Johnny Manziel will grow up, and once he has he will act like a grown-up.

This is yet another crack in the NCAA body armour, which is looking more and more like a rug these days. The big one, of course, is the pending Ed O’Bannon lawsuit, which appears to be a serious enough threat to the NCAA that it looks like it prompted the organization to cancel its partnership with EA Sports. Six current football players have even joined in, standing up for what they think is right and putting their careers in jeopardy in the process.

But that’s not what Johnny Manziel is doing. Here, Manziel is seeing the NCAA for the sham that it is. He knows that he can’t bestopped, so long as his mistakes remain the benign ones of an innocent 20-year-old, because the NCAA would hurt itself if it stopped him. He’ll play college football for two more years, and make the most of it too, and then move on to the NFL.

Speaking of the NFL, the NCAA has still managed to keep its most powerful ally in the world in Roger Goodell. Of course it has, because the NCAA continues to double as a de facto minor league to the NFL, forcing the young kids into staying at the kids’ table until they’re good enough dancers that they can just step in seamlessly into the big boys’ dance that is the NFL. Now, Goodell is reportedly toying with the idea of making the NFL


We will need to be packed and ready to move for WEDNESDAY, 02/06/02 & THURSDAY, 02/07/02.  The move team will be moving our group during the day and the stenos will NOT be working until Monday, 02/11/02.

Also, please make sure that we LOGOFF again tonight...the IT group could not migrate us over the weekend due to incomplete items with legal.  They are going to try and take care of the migration tonight for the new UBS systems.

Thanks for your help.

He held back on his home furnishings as he felt the craftsmanship wasn’tthose moments. There was a purity about that I will never forget.

Cloning and characterization of 40S ribosomal protein S4 gene from Culex pipiens pallens.
The 40S ribosomal protein S4 gene (RPS4) has been cloned from Culex pipiens pallens. An open reading frame (ORF) of 789 bp was found to encode a putative 262 amino acid protein. The deduced amino acid sequence shares 96% and 91% identity with RPS4 genes from Aedes and Anopheles respectively. Transcript expression of RPS4 was determined by real-time PCR in all life stages of deltamethrin-susceptible and -resistant strains. The results demonstrated that this gene is expressed at all developmental stages. Meanwhile, in pupae and adults, RPS4 is overexpressed in deltamethrin-resistant strain than in -susceptible strain. Our data for the first time suggests that increased expression of the RPS4 gene may play some role in the developmentFEV~1~, PEF, SVC, TV, MIP, and MEP) among the three groups. The LSD procedure was performed for post hoc analysis. Statistical software, PAWS 18.0 (SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA), was used in analysis of all data, and statistical significance was considered at the level of p\<0.05.

an affair with Owen's student. When all the information was in the open, Owen told her that she should have known better. Viera did know better and that was why she refused to marry Andor. Shortly afterward she made the anonymous call to the Seer leaders. Owen never knew she was the one who turned Andor in, but he was still upset at her when they spoke last. Romantic entanglements were not allowed for Seers who were active and she had broken that rule. She had broken Owen's trust. That hurt the most.

"Contact me later, if you need to," Perin said outside the door, his hand hovering over the button to admit her.

"Thank you," Viera said. As the door swished aside, the sterile room greeted her. Owen wasman's name catching in her throat as she changed the subject.

"That is what Perin says," he said, his hand picking absently at the grass. His blue eyes studied her face. "I sense some tension about him coming from you."

The Senator's cheeks flushed and she used the palms of her hands to smooth her skirt nervously. Even though avoiding saying anything, she knew Owen would figure it out.

"Forgive me," he said sighing. "I shouldn't be prying into your life."

Viera reached for his hand and grasped it in understanding, but said nothing. They sat enjoying the sun and sounds of the garden together.

* * * *

Andor knew from the reports, but it didn't prepare him for the look of shock which now graced his former mentor's face. It made him


thick. Owen had disconnected from his abilities to stop the pain and displeasure of Viera from soaking into him through his psychic connection.

Standing next to the door of her office, which she kept in her home, he could hear the sound of heated discussion behind the closed door. Other representatives had shown up rather late in the evening demanding to speak to Viera. They had all been inside the office ever since. The hour was getting late, but he refused to leave this spot in case she needed him. He knew she was capable, but a friendly face might be what she needed after the heated meeting.

Finally, sometime after two in the morning, the door opened. All three representatives emerged looking tired and unhappy. Owen said nothing ason his head and they stepped toward their unclear future together.
Chapter Five

The trip to Ethesreld was quiet. Owen busied himself with monitoring the ship's guidance system and status; his mind wandering back to the touch of her hand on his cheek.

No! He was a Seer, albeit only in name at the moment. These feelings needed a release. She was just a friend and there was room for nothing more. When they arrived on Ethesreld, he would have to let it all go. Crossing to the other side would help him get the perspective he needed when it came to Viera.

"Report," the pilot asked looking over at Owen. The pilot staff were none the wiser that he was a Seer and treated him as any other member of the


connection. The other side was only available to her through him and she had to keep up contact.

Viera turned and saw Owen as she had never seen another. A deep blue light surrounded him and created a halo around his body. His features were sharp and younger than she remembered. As the wind whipped his hair, she thought it seemed more golden. He was always handsome, but this went past the normal vision he presented.

Carefully, she reached her free hand up and touched his hair, the smile never leaving her face. It was strange that this was what he saw all the time. How would you not stop to look in wonder at everything? How would you not be awed by every sight?

It was beautiful. He was beautiful.

Standinglarge sectional couch which sat to look out the room's floor to ceiling window. Ethesreld's natural beauty shone in every building Owen visited while he was here. There were always large windows and light pouring in.

"She is visiting with the Queen," Owen said quietly a pang of jealousy in his voice. He didn't like the questions Andor posed about Viera, even though he didn't remember why and only because Viera explained everything.

The large elephant in the room was still Owen's memory. Andor exuded the need to know how his former mentor was doing. Owen knew the answers would be disappointing.

Grimly Owen sat down on the couch and looked at Andor squarely in the eyes. This was not the time to lie. Seers were known for truthfulness. Their ability


the universe.

"Yes," he said. "I'd be glad to show you the forms."

* * * *

"Tuck your seat in," Owen said smacking Viera lightly on the bottom. He was starting to think teaching gangly pre-teens was easier or maybe Andor's ability to learn quickly had spoiled him.

"That is as far as it goes," she protested rather loudly. He laughed and then moved to the next position. The sun barely began to rise over the horizon and the amber light cast a beautiful glow on the garden.

"Like this?" Viera asked trying to imitate him as best she could. Somehow her arms and legs didn't work as well as his did. She was always good at things, but this made her feel like a complete idiot. He made it look soand the drivers were known to go to the more private areas of the lake to make sure those riding would not be seen. She wasn't sure he knew what he was getting into.

"Yes," he said rising from the table. He went around and pulled Viera's chair out for her and offered her his hand. Delicately, Viera rose from her chair and followed Owen toward the boat landing door, grasping his hand in anticipation. His heart was beating furiously inside his chest as they stepped out into the night air.

Candle barges were flatboats taken out on the lake at night. They had candles along the edge with a driver using a small motor to propel the barge around the lake. Viera had only been on one when she


but maybe Owen was finding out the hard way.
Chapter Twelve

Viera noted how quiet Owen was on the return to Vatino. As the small transport touched down on the landing pad of the retreat, he made his way from the ship without a word to her. Gathering her few possessions, Viera went to find him, concerned for his mental well-being.

After searching the common living area, she found him standing on the balcony in her bedroom. No, she reminded herself, their bedroom. He looked determined but sad as he stared into the distance. His face proved he was somewhere else, listening to a voice she couldn't hear.

Viera wanted to ask what happened, but she knew Owen and he would tell her when he was ready. The best thing to doViera said and swiped at the tears forming in her eyes.

"Don't worry," Malhia said embracing her daughter. "When I put this dress on to marry your father, I cried like a baby."

* * * *

Owen could feel Radya's eyes upon him as he checked his dress uniform again to make sure it was perfect. Owen wanted to be perfect for her and perfect for their day together.

"I will take care of her," Owen assured Viera's father. He could sense the man's hesitation about the wedding, but Radya was a good man and Owen knew he would not object to someone his daughter loved.

"I respect you as a Seer, but she is still my daughter," Radya said.

"There is no way I can understand, but she means more to me


a family. He wanted to love without being told it was wrong. Damn the rest of the universe and its politics. He only wanted Viera.

"For her," the younger man said, "I would give away everything I ever was or ever will be, without hesitation."

* * * *

She took the breath from his lungs in one fell swoop. Viera was the most beautiful sight his eyes had ever seen. She stood with a smile on her face, by the edge of the balcony of the Ashlandia villa. The dress she wore hugged her curves and accentuate her body perfectly. Owen was a lucky man.

Owen approached her, passing the smiling faces of her mother and sister, as he took her hand gently in his. He beamed.

"You are beautiful," he whisperedthe eyes.

When the other side became clear to Owen again, Perin would be there to answer his call.

"Thank you, Perin," Owen said smiling and hugging the older man tightly.

"Go before I change my mind," Perin laughed.

* * * *

Owen returned to Vatino and to the waiting arms of Viera. There, they started the life which had been interrupted by Andor. They were thankful to rest in each other's arms once again. The world seemed right. His life seemed right.

Owen stood looking out at the great mountains surrounding their home. This was what he chose and he knew it was right. There was nothing that would make him change his mind about his decision. The Seers were free to build a new universe and he was free to build


books at the back of the room after every speech. “I’ve already paid it off,” he said. Yet the real value of publishing a book, he says, is not the dollar value of book revenues; “It’s awareness, reach—when people who have the book start sharing it with people who didn’t know you before.”

It also helps to spread Eric’s renown online. “Content is king,” he said. But what really counts is original content—“if you can alter the way people think. Thought leadership may not necessarily be something new, but a new way of looking at things.”

That’s what Eric has achieved with Rethink Work. As he puts it, in the workplace today, it doesn’t matter what you do; what really counts is why you do it, how you do it,program, in 2016 and for its future. The Ducks relied heavily on four redshirt freshman starters last season, and that quartet —and— will fill out the UO line along with Crosby on Saturday.Lemieux, selected by teammates as Oregon's most improved player this season, recalled the support Crosby provided him the past two years, when he was harshly critical of his own play."He was the guy to say, 'Hey, I was like that as a freshman, too' — which I doubt," Lemieux said. "But he said, 'Listen, and trust the process.' He's the guy who gave me the confidence to do that."Oregon's new head coach,, spent the regular season as the Ducks' first-year offensive line coach.

in an information to obtain warrants on Jan. 10 for a Starcraft camper that was parked in the driveway of Snook's home.

Police were searching for several items, including computer software programs, photos, videos, and cameras —"hidden or otherwise," according to the documents.

Officers also searched Snook's home, a black 2011 Ford Escape that was in the driveway and seized files from the Department of Social Development.

'Forbidden passion'

Some of the information from the four warrants has been blacked out, including any information that would identify alleged victims.

But the documents allege lengthy and graphic online chats between an undercover RCMP officer and an unnamed computer user at Snook's home about sexual encounters with young boys.

During a 90-minute chat on March 23, 2012, the unknown user said he was a "100 perfiles on the mobile device.

Georgia State Route 328

State Route 328 (SR 328) is an arc-shaped  state highway in the northeast part of the U.S. state of Georgia. The route connects Avalon and Lavonia and provides access to Lake Hartwell and Tugaloo State Park. It is known as Gumlog Road for its entire length. It has been called Gumlog Road long before G-dot gave it a dreary number.

Route description
SR 328 begins at an intersection with old SR 17 in Avalon, in Stephens County. One block east it intersects but does not cross the 4-lane 17 bypass. With the 4-laneing of SR 17, Gumlog Road was lowered 5 feet. This turned out to be a mistake causing a problem with the line of sight on the 4-lane. Gumlog Road, with over 2,000 vehicles per day, has beenthe living room. More often than not, they get at least two of each item. Although there are wedding registries available in specialty stores, giving them something you thought of is always better.

Sometimes, couples forget to have fun. They’re too serious and even forget they have other friends. In modern Internet slang, they call it “hiberdating”. It is when you spend all the time with one another, forgetting there are still other people in the world. While this is cute when you’re in the first few months of your relationship, it can get boring. It often leads to breakups. Definitely not something you want.

That’s why it is important to have more fun together. You can even do stuff with a group. Here are some things you can do


with your friends.

Get on your trampoline.

While having the entire 16 ft. trampoline all to yourself is fun, jumping with a group is hilarious. You’ll have loads of fun and even burn some of the calories from the yummy grub your friends made. Visiting a trampoline park works well too. Or better yet, get your own premier trampoline to make the fun more accessible.

Go on a road trip.

Rent out a coaster or a big SUV for everybody in the group. You can go camping or rent an entire house to stay in during a long weekend. You can do games like beer pong or King’s Cup. You can also play board games like you used to when you were younger.

Including your friends in your relationship will make it healthier.When it comes to teen alcohol use, close friends have more influence than peers

A recent study by an Indiana University researcher has found that adolescents' alcohol use is influenced by their close friends' use, regardless of how much alcohol they think their general peers consume.

Jonathon Beckmeyer, assistant professor in the Department of Applied Health Science at the IU School of Public Health-Bloomington and author of the study, said his research generally focuses on the onset of teen alcohol use and how their social relationships shape those experiences.

"We've known for a long time that friends and peers have an influence on individual alcohol use, but there are no common studies that distinguished between the broader peer group and the friend group's influence on those decisions," Beckmeyer said.

Dalarna County, Sweden. Specifically, the model is as follows: and it relates the annual number of tularemia cases (Tul) to relative annual mosquito abundance (RMA) (which in turn depends on some periodic hydroclimatic variables of water flow (Q) and temperature conditions (T), as explained further below), summer temperature in the preceding year (ST~lag~), summer precipitation in the same year (SP), winter days with low snow coverage (CW), and number of tularemia cases in the preceding year (Tul~lag~).

To quantify and readily compare the sensitivity of the number of tularemia cases, Tul, for different hydroclimatic conditions, and ultimately identify possible critical condition thresholds, we derived a model-implicit comparative index in terms of expected endemic levels by rearranging the analytical model Equation (1). This comparative index is the expected number ofoutbreaks Tul will in following years converge towards and stabilize at N\* ([Figure 1](#ijerph-16-03717-f001){ref-type="fig"}b). The resulting value of N\* thus represents an expected endemic level for the hydroclimatic conditions considered (determining the value of A). Intersection at the origin, i.e., N\*=0, means that the number of annual tularemia outbreaks will tend to vanish over a series of years under the given hydroclimatic conditions.

Note that the index of expected endemic level N\* does not represent the actual tularemia cases in a specific year with weather conditions as in a considered combination of hydroclimatic model variables, since weather does not remain constant over consecutive years. However, the level N\* works well as a comparative indicator of how different hydroclimatic factors contribute to disease outbreaks, and how the number of tularemia


Belly dance is an expressive dance which emphasizes complex movements of the torso.[1] Originally a Middle Eastern folk dance, it has evolved to take many different forms depending on the country and region, both in costume and dance style. New styles have evolved in the West as its popularity has spread globally.

Names and terminology

The term "belly dance" is a translation of the French term "danse du ventre", which was applied to the dance in the Victorian era, and probably originally referred to dancers from the Ouled Nail tribes of Algeria. It is something of a misnomer, as their dance used more abdominal movements than the dances described today as "belly dance".

In Arabic, the dance is known as Raqs Sharqi ("Eastern Dance") or Raqs Beledi("Country Dance" or "Folk Dance").

Dalilahbe gender segregated, with separate parties where men and women dance separately.[9]

Historically, professional dance performers were the Awalim (primarily musicians and poets), Ghawazi and Köçekler. The Maazin sisters may have been the last authentic performers of Ghawazi dance in Egypt, with Khayreyya Maazin still teaching and performing as of 2009.[10]

In the modern era, professional performers (including dancers, singers and actors) are not considered to be respectable in the Middle East, and there is a strong social stigma attached to female performers in particular, since they display their bodies in public, which is considered haram in Islam.[11]

Belly dance in Egypt

Working in Cairo are some of the most famous bellydancers, costume designers, and talented musicians.

The modern Egyptian belly dance style (and the modern costume) are often said to have originated


Belly Dancers came from Lebanon in the times of the Phoenicians from the 11th Century B.C. until 5th Century B.C. . When the Arab family of the Umayyad came to Spain, they saw that it was a beautiful country, and called it Al Andalus. The meaning of the name is highly contested. The Arabs brought back their new knowledge, their new religion, and their art. They discovered that the spanish women from the north of Spain, in the area known as Basque country, were very successful singers and dancers. From then they started to get students from the Basque, and brought them to Damascus and Egypt to train them to be great dancers in Al Andalus. Those dancers came to be known as Al Andalus dancers.

When James Joseph Bulger Jr was born on September 3 1929, it would have been hard to predict that he would grow up to become a dangerous organised crime boss.

Bulger, now more commonly known as “Whitey” Bulger, was born and raised in Dorchester, Massachusetts by his father and mother, an Irish immigrant.

During an early life rife with poverty, the eldest Bulger child of six was drawn to a life on the wrong side of the tracks in Boston, Massachusetts.

He was arrested for the first time at the age of 14 for larceny, at which point he’d already joined a local gang.

It was during his early days of petty crime that Bulger was given his nickname, by the local police for the colour of his hair.

In the Australian Football League (AFL) grand final of 2010, both St Kilda and Collingwood had scored 68 points when the siren sounded for full time; a draw. The rules of the competition stated that the final had to be replayed the following week. In the week preceding the rematch, Collingwood coach, Michael Malthouse, penned a newspaper article titled "Mental toughness will decide premiership" ([@B18]). Collingwood went on to win the grand final replay by 56 points. They were able to perform to a higher level than their opposition, despite the challenge of having already played in a grand final seven days earlier in front of 90,000 spectators, and the adversity of having fatigued and injured players. According to their coach, the success of Collingwood in the


Research into MT has also developed and validated several introspective questionnaires in order to measure MT in several domains, and in turn, test and further refine its theoretical framework ([@B20]). Some of these questionnaires include the Mental Toughness Questionnaire-48 (MTQ48) ([@B3]), the Sport mental toughness questionnaire (SMTQ) ([@B24]), and the Mental toughness index (MTI) ([@B12]). Therefore, the vast majority of what is known about MT measurement is based upon introspective survey methodology.

Surveys can provide scientists with valuable information about psychological and emotional states of participants, but there has been a call for incorporation of other methodologies that can provide insight to the link between psychomotor skill capability and MT in athletes ([@B11], [@B14]; [@B13]; [@B16]). The broader field of sport psychology has relied predominantly on introspective surveys and([@B25]). Alternatively, assessment of the capability to successfully pass the ball to a teammate provides a measure of motor skill execution ([@B25]). Recently, [@B21] designed a sports-specific ARF test based upon SSG (six attackers vs. five defenders) in order to assess the perceptual-cognitive-motor skills of Australian footballers. The authors reported that higher skilled players were significantly superior on the total score (decision-making plus execution) compared to lesser skilled Australian footballers. By manipulation of the ratio of defenders to attackers it is possible to increase or decrease pressure in SSG (see [@B8]), which can then form scenarios to investigate how athletes deal with challenge (as predicted in MT theory) that may affect performance.

This study incorporated existing MT survey methodology with an *in situ* sports-specific test. ARF was used as


total score for each participant was calculated for each higher and lower pressure scenarios on the SSG test for both skill groups. A "pressure differential score" was then calculated by subtracting higher pressure scenario mean total score from lower pressure scenario mean total score. For example, if a participant had a lower pressure mean total score of 5.4 and higher pressure mean total score of 4.6, their pressure differential score would be; 5.4 -- 4.6 = 0.8. A pressure differential score closer to zero indicated better sustained performance across lower to higher pressure scenarios; which meant participants were able to maintain perceptual-cognitive-motor skills when challenged. A one-sample *t*-test was used to compare the mean pressure differential scores to a no-performance-change score of zero for higher and lower skilleda perceptual-cognitive-motor skill training program, with their relative benefits assessed using small-sided game pressure scenarios. A psychological skill intervention has been reported to improve mental toughness and performance in cricket batting (see [@B2]), but has not specifically been compared to perceptual-cognitive-motor skill training and performance in small-sided game scenarios. Collectively, fruitful opportunities exist to further understand how mental toughness and perceptual-cognitive-motor skills contribute to performance of sports skills.

Actually, during the heyday, I went into a fancy shop to price a suit, which I would never wear, but I thought I should have a suit. They were so expensive that I ended up buying a tie. [Laughs.] So, I have a good-looking tie that cost $50.

Could you expand on what you referred to as “violence”? There were innuendos that go on back and forth between the models and the designers, and the amount of anxiety.

Party shooting is also a niche you became well-known for. What was your first experience shooting high-profile parties like? I was real anxious because I was working for the first time for Graydon [Carter] and for VanityFair, and I didn’t know exactly what to do. I wanted to please them as a responsible photographer. But as far as being in the room with all these fancy folks, or famous people, I don’t care about that at all. The first time I went out to Hollywood, I’d never worn a tuxedo in my life, and we were sitting around in at the pool in Beverly Hills and [Graydon] says, ‘What are you wearing tonight, Larry?’ And I said, ‘Probably what


call “the death masks” in gravestones. But I’m not just photographing the sculpture itself, I go into the faces with the little macro lenses and reinterpret them and try to, in a way, breathe life into them from within the stone to make the visual interpretation something a little bit more palpable. I’ve been working with just the human eye and face to see if I can bring — the series is called “Flesh and Stone,” and breathing life into the stone and not necessarily breathing death into the flesh, but having some kind of coordinate and putting them together so that there’s some kind of reflective relationship.

the core, to reduce any influence from a torque ripple in rotation of the rotor.
On the other hand, in the WRSM that is used for operation of electric motors in electric and hybrid vehicles, the rotor rotates at fairly high speed, e.g., 10000 rpm, during which time the coil wound around the rotor is moved radially outward by the centrifugal force and comes in contact with the core of the stator. In order to correct this phenomenon, a mold has been disposed on an outer surface of the rotor and the coil is fixed on the rotor by injecting a molding material into the spaces between core blocks.
However, the above molding process requires a mold to be aligned in a predetermined line, for rotors which typically have anof a stator and the outer diameter of the rotator increases, and this resists the flow of a magnetic flux.

On December 9, at approximately 1:20 P.M., Schulman was observed by an F.B.I. agent driving his Lincoln Continental near Cafaro's residence.  The car was later seen parked in Cafaro's driveway.  At approximately 2 P.M., Fitzgerald received a telephone call from Mainetti who advised Fitzgerald to pay the money to him.  Fitzgerald refused.  Then Cafaro got on the phone, informed Fitzgerald that he was with "the man" and told him that "we'll be over in a few minutes."  (Tr. p. 59).  Shortly thereafter, Cafaro, driving his own car with Schulman as his sole passenger, arrived at Fitzgerald's tile company.  They were followed by Mainetti who had driven another car.  Cafaro then directed Fitzgerald to pay Mainetti.  Fitzgerald complied.  Subsequently,details of the call and defended UT’s response to the incident.

Meanwhile, North Dakota State U. also received a bomb threat. Vasys said the FBI is looking at the possibility of a connection between the two hoax calls. At Friday’s noon press conference, Powers said he could not say whether the two instances were related, but he did say the investigation team had information that they might be.

UTPD chief Robert Dahlstrom said bomb threats at UT usually happen multiple times each semester.

“It doesn’t happen that often,” Dahlstrom said. “It’s very rare. I would say several a semester, and that’s just on average.”

Dahlstrom said the text message was sent at 9:50 a.m. Had the threat been real, the bombs would have gone off around 10:05 a.m., giving students less than

Bribery laws also don't mean that every crooked official gets caught, but
still they have some positive effect as a deterrent.

I'm fairly sure that if a cop had a 'less than 10 percent of the time' risk of
permanently ending his career, then they would be much more careful than they
are now. Of course, there could be an argument that we as a society don't want
our cops to be _too_ careful with rights of criminals, we also have an

Conservative commentators are divided over whether the party’s lack of unity is a short-term problem, born of political posturing. But some comments, including Senator Lindsey Graham saying Trump has “conned” the party and 2012 nominee Mitt Romney saying his “third-grade theatrics” were not worthy of the presidency, may prove tough to retract.

For Trump, harsh words may carry greater consequences than hurt feelings. A failure to soften mainstream Republican opposition could cut him off from vital party funds. Estimates place likely opponent Hillary Clinton’s general election warchest at $1bn. Alone, Trump would find that tough to

Sanders was not always in favor of blanket coverage programs, warning in a 1987 interview that a similar proposal presented this week, would bankrupt the United States.the constraint of time on my hands would have gulped it down in a sitting, I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars.
I refrain from filling up the rank because of the editorial and proofreading deficiency which was not much.

I must mention that I found a role model in Jessica McLeod, the children’s grandmother who demonstrated a mother’s love for her progeny, firmness in discipline and attentiveness needed by children to grow well. Her strength in The face of trauma is also enviable. Great lessons have I learnt from this book and I hope many others especially teenagers will also learn.

Patrick Carter’s life seems to be going nowhere when his pick-up breaks down and he begins walking home. As he is walking, he hears a girl screaming


insight into their operation, piquing my interest in learning more. The descriptions of both the professional and personal lives of Des Pres and Borodin leads me to believe that law enforcement in other countries is similar to my own. I’d like to see how they differ, though, and the book gives small glimpses of that.

The book’s plot is well developed and easy to follow. The characters, too, are well honed; the author inspires affection for the heroes, disdain for the criminals, and compassion for those caught up in the murky area where both right and wrong call their names. The ability of human beings to change and grow is one of the themes of the book, along with the ability to recognize and resist childhood conditioning and movehelp to want to move to another section, which often led to many sleepless nights. The pace of the novel moved well and I thoroughly enjoyed its structure.

Overall, the plot of the novel seemed familiar, but the storytelling made it still interesting. I was happy to see the common themes and also to be surprised by new events. The tension is built effectively and I was excited to see what would happen next. I found myself questioning how I would feel and what I would do in Patrick’s situation. Certainly it is filled with drama, struggle, and insecurity – something that would be extremely nauseating in real life – but how exciting it was to read in the comfort of my own home.

Rene Natan is extremely skilled in


for her safety. Jessica gets Amelia to tell her story: she’s been dating an older guy with money, Oscar. However, he started acting strangely and having many late night phone calls. Suspecting him of cheating, she followed him out one night. Amelia overheard Oscar in negotiations for an arms deal. She fled, but accidentally left personal property behind. While hiding, she overheard Oscar assuring his business associates that Amelia was as good as dead.
Patrick visits the temporary local headquarters for Des Pres’ CSIS task force. He reports Amelia’s return, but Des Pres is already aware – the McLeod property is under surveillance. Des Pres berates Patrick for endangering his undercover role by interacting with the McLeods so obviously. Des Pres also reports that Emy Walker is missing; heLucien runs in with news: the McLeod parents out west, and their daughter Sam, have been killed in a chartered plane accident. Local authorities are not ruling out foul play. With a heavy heart, Des Pres calls Patrick and Emy and asks them to meet him at Jessica’s cottage.
Oscar, meanwhile, drives with Luke as his passenger. Oscar is exultant over the plane crash – he’s finally tying up loose ends. He agrees to Luke’s terms: $20k per head to kill Amelia, Martha and Patrick. The two of them visit Ron Amaldi, recovering in his mum’s house from a gunshot wound. Ron reveals what happened: he and his older brother Charlie, sent by Oscar, tracked Martha and Nat to the barn. Nat opened fire unexpectedly, and Ron was barely
