CHAMPLAIN — One group has joined together to help cover the operating expenses for a local cemetery like a blanket — or, more to the point, like a quilt. Trudy Burger of Chazy met with several women from the Northern Tier over the winter months to create a queen-size quilt as a fundraiser for the Glenwood Cemetery Association. Burger said she learned the nondenominational cemeter — located on Oak Street in the village of Champlain — is not cared for by a church as is the case with many other cemeteries and that funding for regular maintenance and upkeep of the grounds is limited.
This homemade quilt, assembled by several women from the Northern Tier, is being raffled to benefit the Glenwood Cemetery Association in Champlain. The winning ticket will be drawn next month.

Benefit this Saturday to raise money for woman with terminal cancer By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — Carla J. Barnes has been battling renal cancer for the last five years, and, most recently, things have taken a turn for the worse. The cancer that invaded the body of the 54-year-old mother of two and grandmother of three was recently found to have metastasized to her brain, leading doctors to give her a terminal diagnosis. Barnes’ older sister, Darlene G. LaValley, said the news has taken its toll on Barnes and their family. “She’s a very special person in all our lives,” said LaValley. “Our relationship as sisters has always been very special. Losing her is like losing my right arm.” “She’s my baby sister,” LaValley added as she fought back tears. Though the two have “cried a lot,” the two have also “laughed a lot,” said LaValley.
Even in the face of the grimmest of circumstances, LaValley said her sister continues to find the humor in life. “That’s just how she is,” said LaValley. “She’s Carla. You’d have to know her to appreciate her. There’s never a dull moment with her around. We’ve always got something we’re laughing about.” “I am just wishing it would have been me instead of her,” LaValley added, “but it doesn’t always work that way, I guess.” Though there’s nothing they can do to change her diagnosis, said LaValley, what the family can do is make Barnes’ remaining days as easy on her as possible. “The last three weeks have been the worst,” said LaValley. “She’s losing mobility. We’ve done things around the house to make things more comfortable for her.” That includes looking to purchase assistive devices to help Barnes with her day-today activities.

WEST CHAZY — When entering the schools of the Beekmantown School District, it may be difficult to see the changes that have taken place in the past few months. However, from new floor tiles, to additional security cameras, to a new roof, the changes have been many — and were said to be wellneeded. “It’s not really what a lot of people see ... but the upgrades to the facility were needed,” explained project representative Don Strong, a former BCS employee. “The state of New York supplied us the money to do it.” The plans for the renovations of the four schools in the district — Cumberland Head Elementary School, Beekmantown Elementary School, Beekmantown Middle School, and Beekmantown High School — began in 2008, following the approval of the district’s budget plan, which is required to receive money from the state. “We presented to the voters last year a proposition for approving $6,655,455 towards the EXCEL project,” explained superintendent Scott A. Amo. “That requires voter approval, however voter approval on it did not increase the amounts of money the taxpayers were responsible for, because it was available through the state.” EXCEL, which stands for Expanding our Children’s Education and Learning, “provides funds from the state to offset costs relating to health and safety projects,” according to the proposition provided by BCS. According to Amo, every five years, the school is required to submit a Five Year Capital Improvement Plan to the state.

“We forecast out what our improvement needs are, such as when warranties are up on roofs, the plumbing and heating, et cetera,” said Amo. With the financial support from EXCEL, the district was able to tackle all the safety-related issues the school faced. Safety is one of the major considerations by EXCEL in order for schools to be approved for the money. Others include education technology, energy, physical capacity expansion, and accessibility. Additionally, expansion and accessibility were taken into consideration by the middle school when they asked to have an additional serving line in the cafeteria. “Generally, what I’m hearing from the principals as well as the food service director, Roxann Barnes, is that the students are quieter in general going through and in the cafeteria,” said Amo. “They’re certainly getting served quicker, which cuts down on any of the in-line discipline issues that might otherwise arise while you’re waiting your turn to get fed.” The school also saw some major upgrades to the football field, although the EXCEL project did not help pay for it. “The whole project started off with a request again for separate proposition presented to the voters last spring,” explained Amo. “Whether or not they would be willing to take money from
our fund balance and apply it directly to the purchase and installation of the bleachers.” Due to safety concerns, the bleachers had to be taken down last year at the conclusion of the football season. “With going to the voters we saw an opportunity to take down the old wooden structure that was the press box and match it with the design, attach it to the bleachers,” Amo explained. Other additions to the field include new sod and fencing. “The comments so far have been very, very positive,” added Amo. The football field is now complete and the EXCEL projects are nearing completion. “We’re waiting right now for our 800 kilowatt generator,” said Strong. “We’ll become a shelter and we’ll .... have kitchen facilities.” Strong explained the school is now set up in case of emergencies like the Ice Storm of 1998. “Let’s face it, something like that may never happen again, but we just plug the fuel into it and away we go,” he said. With the end of the projects in sight, Amo was very appreciative of the work done. “A tip of the hat to our buildings and grounds staff who just did an incredible amount of work this year,” he said.

he use of lithium-ion battery technology has grown tremendously in many devices from laptops to power tools and now electric cars. Batteries made with the technology are shown to have some advantages over previous technologies such as nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal hydride. Batteries produce electric power because of the reaction between the anode and cathode. What mainly separates rechargeable from disposable batteries is the anode/cathode reaction is easily reversed in rechargeable batteries but not in disposable ones. The reversing of the charge is exactly what charges the rechargeable battery and is due to the materials used in the battery design. The materials are also what separate the many rechargeable battery technologies. The name of each technology type often refers to the materials used or the main material used. Lithium-ion batteries use lithium, nickel-cadmium batteries use nickel oxide hydroxide with a cadmium electrode and so forth. The materials used also play a big part in creating characteristics such as charging time, self-discharge, the number of charge/discharge cycles and more. Lithium-ion battery use has grown because the battery is lighter than other types and does not display the “memory effect” nickel-cadmium batteries display. They also sit on the

Best-kept secrets: ‘maximize the match’
L
ast week, I introduced you to some of the fun ways shoppers can make “Buy one, get one free” (BOGO) sales even more rewarding. Anytime we can buy one item and get another free, we’re essentially buying two at half price each. So how do we make a half-off sale even better? With coupons, of course! Here’s the third “best-kept secret” of couponing:
Use two coupons during a BOGO sale At most stores, you can use one coupon per purchase. Even though you’re buying one item and getting another “free,” it’s not truly free. You still have to go through the act of “purchasing” it at the register (the store won’t allow you to just pick up the “free” jar and take it home, will they?) If you live in an area that collects sales tax on groceries, you must still pay sales tax on the “free” item. So, it’s best to think of BOGO sales as buying two for the price of one. As long as you’re buying two items, even if one is full-price and one is free, you can use a coupon on each item you’re buying. You’re buying two items, so you can use two coupons. Here’s an example illustrating why this is a great idea. My grocery store has organic pasta sauces on sale for $3, “Buy one, get one free.” And even though the register rings them up as $3 for the first jar and $0 for the second, it is still possible for me to present a coupon on each jar for additional savings. For this sale, I have two $1 coupons for the pasta sauce. Using one coupon for each jar I purchase brings my cost down to just $1 for two jars, or 50 cents each! That’s a great price for any pasta sauce, especially organic.
Now, many grocery stores handle BOGO sales differently. With a sale like the one I outlined above, most stores’ registers will ring the sale as one $3 jar and one $0 jar. Other grocery stores may approach the same BOGO sale by ringing up each item at $1.50 each. Either way, you By Jill Cataldo can still use a coupon on each item and get each jar of pasta sauce for 50 cents. Are you ready for a bonus tip? If your store “splits” BOGO prices into half for each item, you only have to buy one of the items to get it for that price! So, if you only had one pasta sauce coupon, you could buy just one jar, get it for the $1.50 price, use a $1 coupon on it, and still take it home for 50 cents. To determine which way your store handles BOGO sales, look at your receipt the next time you buy items promoted in a BOGO sale. If the register rings one at full price and one at zero, you must buy two to receive the price. If it rings each one at half of full price, you will be able to buy just one of the items involved in the sale and receive it for half the price without buying the second item. © CTW Features

shelf much better. On the down-side, they lose capacity over time of about 20 percent a year or more if subjected to higher temperatures regularly. Two companies have improved on the lithium-ion design. Sony has produced a battery using an olivine-type By Ron Poland lithium iron phosphate while Toshiba has the SCiB with an advertised life span of 6,000 charge/discharge cycles and a recharge to 90 percent capacity time of five minutes. While the SCiB has an overall lower output, imagine an electric car that could be plugged in and almost completely recharged in the time it takes to have a cup of coffee.

he North Country Chapter of the American Red Cross has been serving this North Country community since June 1916. Each year, we report to the community regarding all the staff and volunteers have accomplished. There are three programs we do 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Disaster Response — Last year, we assisted 40 families after they experienced a fire with emergency shelter, food and clothing. The Red Cross is the only organization the military recognizes to verify an emergency for enlisted military personnel and their families here. Staff and volunteers verified 68 emergencies for serious illness, death or birth of a baby last year. Lifeline Program — The chapter has been sponsoring the Lifeline Program here in this community for the past 20 years — currently, we have 214 units in the field assisting individuals to stay in their homes with independence and security at their finger tips. Lifesaving Instruction — Chapter instructors taught 7,390 individuals lifesaving skills — CPR, First Aid, Automated External Defibrillator (AED), Water Safety, Life Guard
Training, Swimming and Babysitting courses. Staff and volunteers participated in many outreach opportunities here in the community. We work with other area agencies to provide resources to the community. The chapter could not do all we do here in the North Country were it not for the more than 500 volunteers who support the mission. We thank the community for your financial support — every program and service is funded by the generosity of this North Country community. If you make a personal gift to the chapter or whether you support one of the fundraisers we do, thank you.

Anticipating the return of the Music Appreciation Club
W
hen I was 18, I couldn’t get enough of “Three Days Grace” self-titled album — especially the song “I Hate Everything About You.” From the slow acoustics at the beginning to the all-out rage the lead vocalist brings forth in the chorus, I listed to the song on repeat through the summer of 2003. I have fond memories of that summer, which was in between high school and college. Even to this day, when I hear that song, I think back to the end of my teenage years. This feeling is exactly what composer and pianist Adrian Carr is hoping to bring back to people in the Northern Tier. Carr received a decentralization grant from the New York State Council of the Arts earlier this year, and used some of it to create a music appreciation club. As someone who is always listening to music, I immediately decided to write an article back in February in hopes of attracting more people to the club. I visited Dodge Memorial Library in Rouses Point Feb. 24, where Carr was discussing with the club how to interpret music in movies. I was hooked. I had brought my “Dirty Dancing” soundtrack along, thinking I may as well participate in the discussion to get a true sense of what the club was about.

Quilt From page 1 “Our little group likes to get together to do things for charity and we thought this would be a great opportunity to do something in our backyard,” said Burger. Burger joined friends Cathie Davenport, Gina Doty, Jane Emerson, Sherry Jubert, Ann Maynard and Sheryl Patch in machine-piecing the quilt, she explained. Friend Carole Meier then machine-quilted the creation. In all, Burger estimated the women put 850 hours of combined labor into the quilt. That dedication was driven by each woman’s appreciation for the Glenwood Cemetery, she said. “It’s such a beautiful place. There’s so much history in terms of the families who are interred there,” said Burger. “This is just our way of doing something that benefits our community. This project has made us feel very good.” Marshall E. Maynard, president of the Glenwood Cemetery Association board of directors, said it was
library this Tuesday, Sept. 29 at 7 p.m., where Carr hopes to transport people back to when they were 18. “Everybody has great memories of music they listened to when they were a teenager,” said Carr. “It doesn’t matter when you grew up, everybody has a great memory of a song when you were a teenager.” Carr hopes people will attend the aptly-named “Music Appreciation Club,” and bring their favorite album or song from when they were 18 — to find a commonality of what made music so great as a teenager. “By the time you’re 30,” said Carr, “you don’t have the same feeling about the music, so let’s go back to when we were 18 and figure out what was really great about this and maybe we an get in touch with that again and create a little more interest now.” As someone who plans on attending the club once again, I strongly encourage people to participate. It’s enjoyable for all ages and is an open discussion. Carr encourages people to bring CDs or MP3s. The library does not have a music system that operates cassettes or records. For more information about the club, call the library at 297-6242.

a pleasant surprise to learn the ladies were interested in helping the association in such a way. “We’re always short of money. We simply take in less than we have to spend,” said Maynard. “I was very happy when they told me they were doing this quilt for us.” The group has begun selling raffle tickets for the quilt, to which the community has already begun to give an overwhelming response, she said. “We initially had 500 tickets printed,” said Burger. “We ended up having to print more because we ran out.” Raffle tickets are being sold through the month of October and may be purchased for $5 each or in books of six for $25, with all proceeds benefiting the cemetery association. Tickets may be purchased by contacting Burger at 846-3255, Maynard at 846-7561, Jean Yakey at 298-5161, Mary Gordon at 236-5682, or Beverly Maynard at 298-3813 or 846-7390. The exact date of the drawing has yet to be finalized, but will be published in an upcoming edition of the North Countryman.

The slaughter of bass in Lake Champlain I just can't take standing by and not saying something about the utter slaughter of Lake Champlain’s bass population. As you know I’m a native of Plattsburgh and have been scuba diving in this lake since 1963 and a scuba instructor since 1974. Never in these past 40 years have I seen the amount of devastation to the bass population as I’ve seen in the last 3 years. Not only are hundreds of smallmouth bass killed during EACH tournament, but hundreds are presently dying slow agonizing deaths on the bottom of the lake after each tournament. These slow-dying bass have hooks and leaders still in their mouths, with some of the leaders caught on the bottom holding these fish from free-swimming and finding food. It’s pitiful to see them becoming malnourished and dying so slowly. As divers we also see many bass with ripped gills and mouths trying to breath also dying slowly while laying on the bottom. Ever seen the way the tournament “champs” are holding these fish for the photo op? In addition to this, us divers are also noticing the “absence” of many bass in places where they once thrived. Why are they not there? Because they’ve been pulled out of their native nesting sites and cruelly transported to their eventual deaths for weigh-in. What I’ve been personally noticing is that less and less bass are in the lake. We cannot simply pull out 8,000 bass in two weekends without severly devastating the population. We are literally killing the “golden goose” with so many of these tournaments. Can’t anyone else see this? Every boater at the Plattsburgh Boat Basin knows that after any still-living bass are released post weigh-in, they congregate under the boats at our marina. It’s then “fair game” for

any local fisherman to sit on the dock and literally fish these bass until their buckets are full up. Again totally removing these “breeders” from the lake. In summary, here are my contentions: 1) The bass tournaments are rapidly depleting the bass stock in Lake Champlain. I predict that within 5 years there will be no more bass in Lake Champlain. By then the tournament organizers will have found other lakes to ravage. 2) The “trophy” bass being wiped out are the “breeders” critical to the bass population’s future. 3) The immediate bass kills post-tournament are just the tip of the iceberg. Hundereds are dying slowly on the lake bottom with hooks and leaders still in their mouths. Many more are dying slowly with destroyed gills and mouths. I beseach the powers that be to begin limiting the amount and durations of these bass tournaments before there are no bass left in the lake. Such a shame it would be to totally wipe out one of the last native species of this lake in the name of greed. Mel Frechette Plattsburgh

P L AT T S B U R G H — T h e Upstate New York Tea Party has begun its movement to shake up Washington, D.C. Coordinator Mark Barie of Rouses Point opened the first meeting of the UNYTEA Party to a standingroom only crowd at the Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce Sept. 20. The meeting, set against the backdrop screen of the Web site www.USDebtClock.org — which shows the growth of government debt by the second — drew more than 140 people. During the meeting, the UNYTEA group gave an overview of the independent political committee’s mission to combat excessive government spending and reduce taxes and the size of government. The group plans to do so through letterwriting campaigns, sponsoring public debates, direct mail efforts and TEA Party rallies to “send a message to
their elected representatives in Washington,” noted Barie. “We are a grassroots organization of North Country residents who believe that partisan politics must give way to common sense and dollars and cents,” Barie said. “We cannot spend our way out of debt, nor should we insist on taxing those who work in the name of those who won’t.” The UNYTEA will join nearly 750 other similarlyformed groups around the country who are not affiliated with any political party but who are concerned and frightened about the direction in which the country is headed and believe they have a patriotic duty to stand up and make a difference, as their forefathers did many years ago. The group is actively looking to build its membership in the North Country, with the goal of 1,000 members by this time next year. Although, given the enthusiasm of the participants to date, Barie said he wouldn't
Chazy Central Rural School District Superintendent of Schools/High School Principal Selection Survey The Chazy Central Rural School District Board of Education has initiated the process to fill the position of Superintendent of Schools/High School Principal. The opinions of Chazy Central Rural School District parents, residents, teachers/teaching assistants, support staff, administrators, students and other interested parties regarding the traits, experiences and background that the new Superintendent of Schools/High School Principal should possess to successfully lead and manage the district, are important to the Board of Education. The Board has formulated a Superintendent of Schools/High School Principal Selection Survey for the purpose of gathering these opinions. This survey can be obtained from the Chazy Central District Office between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Superintendent of Schools/High School Principal Selection Survey must be returned to the District Office no later than October 16, 2009. Thank you.

be surprised reached that number very quickly. “We will work tirelessly to ensure that we only send those individuals to Washington,” Barie said, “regardless of their party affiliation, who believe that those that govern least, govern best and that the American system of Free Enterprise is the only proven system of success for generations to come.” Recognition was given to Jonathan Nelson, who is credited with initiating the group first gathering in Trinity Park. Also introduced were members of the steering committee, which included Nelson, John Ianelli, Greg Laduke, Dr. John Middleton, Kirk Stallsmith, Jim Wemett), and John VanNatten. In addition to the steering committee, the group is looking for coordinators for every county, town and village in the North Country. The group also heard from local individuals who attended a recent TEA Party rally in Washington, D.C. with more than 1.5 million people in attendance. Pictures of the rally and impressions of those in attendance were shared with the group. The meeting closed with several individuals in the audience adding comments, concerns an support to the mission of the UNYTEA. The group’s next event will be a healthcare forum to be held tentatively Sunday, Oct. 4, in which all three candidates for the 23rd Congressional District seat — Republication Assemblywoman Dierdre Scozzafava, Democratic Party candidate Bill Owens and Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman — have been invited to attend. To date, only Hoffman has accepted an invitation but the event is planned to be held regardless of the other candidates’ attendance.

Recognizing Samuel de Champlain The 400th anniversary of Samuel de Champlain’s discovery of the lake that bears his name was celebrated as the town of Crown Point hosted a rededication of its renovated Champlain Memorial Lighthouse Sept. 19. The rededication was considered to be the highlight event of this year’s Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial celebration, which also recognizes explorer Henry Hudson and engineer and inventor Robert Fulton. A bust by French sculptor Auguste Rodin adorns the front of the lighthouse, and was a gift to the people of the Champlain Valley from France when the lighthouse was originally dedicated. It was built in 1858 and converted into a monument to the French explorer and dedicated in 1912. The work by Rodin, called “La France,” was recently removed, restored and replaced on the lighthouse with enhanced security measures. It was part of a $2 million renovation project at the lighthouse and adjacent pier. The dignitaries in attendance for the rededication included Vermont state Gov. James H. Douglas, right, and New York State Environmental Conservation Commissioner Alexander B. “Pete” Grannis, at left. The two are seen signing the international proclamation rededicating the lighthouse. Pierre Vimont, Ambassador of France to the United States, not pictured, also signed the compact.

SATURDAY September 26, 2009
Women are now a strong presence in the outdoors E
arlier this month, I visited The Whitetail Summit 2009 hosted at the Sports Dome in Queensbury. Although attendance levels were lower than expected, the event offered numerous high quality exhibits and a wide range of interesting seminars. It was a good start toward building a quality show that will hopefully grow into an annual event. I stuck around to attend The Whitetail Summit dinner sponsored by Trijicon and watch as Vermont deer hunting legend, Larry Benoit, was inducted into the newly created, Whitetail Hall of Fame, as its first member. Benoit’s sons, Lanny and Shane, accepted the award on their father's behalf. Among the camo clad crew, one enthusiast stood out. Karen Turner, aka the Vermont Huntress was notable for one simple reason. She was a female and she represents the fastest growing constituency among an ever diminishing breed of outdoor enthusiasts, hunters. Whitetail deer are a hunter ’s equivalent of bass. And like bass, whitetail deer are widely distributed across most of the country. Relatively easily accessible, whitetails are the most commonly hunted big game animal in North America. They are a blue collar animal, the prey of Joe Sixpack. Despite the fact whitetail deer are pursued predominantly by rural, white males, women constitute the fastest growing segment of the hunting fraternity today. Over the past decade, an interesting and important trend has quietly taken place across the wild lands of North America. Women are taking to the woods in ever
increasing numbers. They possess more effective outdoor skills and a greater level of confidence than ever before. Hunting, fishing adventures are no longer the exclusive domain of the male of the species. Nor, in reality, were they ever! Women were the original campers, from the earliest days, in almost all corners of the earth. Aboriginal people relied on women to prepare shelters, to make clothes, gather the water, cook the meals and tend to the necessities essential to insure survival of their people. Women made the decisions of when to move and where to camp. Meanwhile, the men hunted and went to war. It’s not surprising many Native American nations were matriarchal societies. As ‘civilized’ society grew and matured, it evolved to the point where a women’s place was considered to be the home, while the men were expected to roam. The wilderness was considered a hostile environment to be tamed. It was not a place fit for a lady. Although numerous examples remain of pioneer women taking to the woods, the American society came to accept the fact woodland travel and wilderness adventures were primarily a male dominated environment. The massive Brandreth Park, with over 30,000 acres stretching from Raquette Lake to Long Lake, is considered the largest, single family owned parcel in the Adirondacks. From the turn of the century and well into the 1900’s, a local hunter by the name of Paul Brandreth hunted these lands. Paul was an internationally recognized expert on hunting whitetail deer and wrote of his adventures in Forest and Stream, Woods and Waters and
other national publications. He even published a book on hunting whitetails. It is still considered one of the finest ever written on the subject. However, despite being one of the foremost authorities on the topic, Paul never attended the fabled New York Sportsman Show. He never set foot in the Explorers Club nor shared a cigar with Teddy Roosevelt while recounting tales of the hunt. The reason Paul Brandreth never shared in any of the common delights for a man of the hunt, was because he was a she. Pauline Brandreth wrote under the pen name Paul. It was the only way she could be published, for at the time, no one would believe a woman knew anything about hunting whitetail deer. Luckily, for both genders, this attitude is rapidly slipping into oblivion. Today, there are female forest rangers, EnCon officers and fire jumpers. Women now rate highly as hunting and fishing guides, two pursuits considered the bastions of traditional guided adventures. Women are also leading trips for whitewater rafting, ski touring, backpacking, rock climbing and ice climbing. They form the core of wilderness education programs and represent nearly 72 percent of the membership of the National Association of Interpreters, a professional organization of certified naturalists. Women now constitute the majority of instructors teaching the next generation about the out of doors. Women have more opportunities today to develop the skills and knowledge necessary for wilderness adventures. At the same time they are acquiring these tools, they are also empowering themselves to better utilize this training, often while teaching others. Additionally, as women began to take advantage of the opportunities to enjoy wilderness adventures, the outdoor industry took notice. In 1984, Kelty, Inc., a premier manufactur-
er of backpacks, introduced the Kelty Woman, a backpack specifically designed for the female frame. Kelty was one of the first in the outdoor industry to recognize the potential for manufacturing and marketing products specifically for women. Previously, women had to use smaller sized men’s equipment or products made for children. However, this equipment didn’t fit, feel or look right. How quickly the tide turned. Today, equipment technology features lighter, stronger materials that are easier to use and carry. These products are more accessible than ever since they are often designed, manufactured and marketed by women for women. Companies such as Browning, Marlin and Rugar now produce firearms specifically designed and sized for women. So does Orvis, LL Bean and a host of outdoor equipment and apparel manufacturers. Furthermore, the advent of gender specific gear has made skill sets and technique more important than brute strength. Materials such as kevlar have dramatically reduced product weight, while graphite has improved performance. Today, there are more women paddling remote regions and casting a flyrod than ever before. Removing the ‘macho’ element from the outdoor experience has opened new horizons of adventure travel to a segment of the population that is appreciative, considerate of the environment and in many cases, ‘just fun to be with.’ Gentlemen be advised! The next time you encounter someone you thought was just a “Babe in the Woods,” keep an eye on her. You may learn a thing or two! Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook.
