Welcome to the Rim Review. This week’s cover story is by Andy Towle, the staff photographer for the Review and the Payson Roundup. He shares the story of spray paint artist Kratos Lira. Lira began his working life in the construction industry, operating a backhoe. When he could no longer continue in that field, he turned to another and let his creativity explode.

ASTRONOMY TALK AND STAR PARTY
For as long as humans have been in this corner of Arizona, looking to the heavens above must have been a fascination. Today this fascination continues because the area’s night sky is uniquely suited to stargazing. On Saturday, March 10 Tonto National Monument along with the Tonto Basin Ranger District will host an afternoon of solar and planet viewing and in the evening an astronomy talk and star party at the Windy Hill Amphitheater at Roosevelt Lake. This interpretive event is presented by the Astronomers of Verde Valley. Special activities include solar viewing, Jupiter and Venus viewing and a Night Sky Network Information tent from noon to 4 p.m. This will be followed by an astronomy talk from 6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. and then the Astronomers of Verde Valley will have their telescopes out and will guide visitors through the cosmos to see many of the night sky’s fascinating nebulas, galaxies, constellations, and more from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. This free program is open to everyone. Please bring a red light with you if you have one, and don’t forget to dress appropriately.
DIRECTIONS From Globe, take SR 188 for 25 miles to the Windy Hill turnoff (MP 240). From Payson, turn left and continue on SR 188 until the Windy Hill turnoff, which is 4.5 miles past Roosevelt Dam. Follow the Windy Hill road for 2 miles to the amphitheater on your left. For further information or if you have any questions, please call Tonto National Monument at (928) 467-2241.

The Off-Broadway sensation, The Water Coolers will offer their hilarious look into the world of adulthood at the Payson High School Auditorium at 7 p.m., Friday, March 16. The Water Coolers debuted in New York in 2000 and opened Off-Broadway in the fall of 2002. Originally created as a comedy act for corporate meetings, the move to theatre was inevitable. The show takes a long laughing look at modern life, from technology (“Blackberry” sung to the tune of “Proud Mary”) and travel (“Flying in Economy”) to the daily grind (“And Hold Please”). Based in New York City, The Water
Coolers has become a working home for some of the finest and most exciting comics and singers in professional show business. Resumes among current cast members include performances at top comedy clubs like Igby’s, the Improv, the Comic Strip, The Broadway Comedy Club, and either the Broadway or Broadway touring production of such shows as Rock of Ages, Spamalot, Wicked, The Lion King, In The Heights and Les Miserables among many others. Writer/Director Thomas Michael Allen (“Tony ‘n’ Tina’s Wedding”) collaborated with theatrical and business personalities in the creation of the show.

Main St., Payson Pasternak has developed an enthusiastic audience in the Northeast U.S. with her honest, straight-ahead style, and equal energy for Swing songs, bebop, ballads and Latin jazz. “People tell me my attitude on stage is energetic and contagious to them. They say that they feel good watching me engaged in the music; it engages them too,” says Nicole. “ An East Coast music critic wrote of Pasternak, “This sassy jazz singer has a beautiful, crystal clear tone and bright manner that never obscures her impressive Bop chops. Pasternak allows plenty of room for her band to solo, but she is always firmly in control of the proceedings. This is an upscale, nightclub (singer) that fans of gritty jazz should enjoy.” She will be accompanied by Lew Turano of Sedona on piano; Steve Douglas of Phoenix on bass; and Gerry Reynolds of Strawberry on drums.

Monday meal makeovers Create lasting change, one week at a time For some, Mondays may be the start of another week of the same old thing. But with a little help, Mondays can be the perfect time to make a difference in your routine. Celebrity fitness trainer and author Kathy Kaehler has teamed up with MorningStar Farms and the Meatless Monday campaign to encourage people to eat a healthier diet, one week at a time. “My approach to lasting change has always been to start with small steps,” said Kaehler. “I advise taking a weekly approach to help make diet and exercise changes manageable.” Kaehler shares these simple tips and tools for success: • Get Organized at the Top of the Week - Use Sundays to make a grocery list, rinse and prep your vegetables for the week, and make a schedule of dinners for each night. It will take you no longer than an hour, will help you get organized, and will save time and money. • Go Meatless on Mondays - Join the national Meatless Monday campaign and pledge to reduce your meat intake, one Monday at a time. It’s a fun way to explore meatless eating, and there are some great meat alternative products, such as MorningStar Farms, that you can incorporate each week. • Themed Meals - Planning themed meals can make eating healthy a little more exciting. Try meatballs on Monday, tacos on Tuesday and fish on Friday. Try these recipes for Sweet-and-Sour Veggie Meatballs over brown rice or Thai Peanut Sauced Veggie Meatballs over your favorite noodles.

During our visit here we were able to see many, many alligators in their natural setting, even babies. The area is loaded with wildlife almost everywhere you look. Following the Air Boat ride we were treated to a nature walk and an explanation of how alligators live in such surroundings. We enjoyed lunch in the park’s restaurant and were somewhat surprised at how many of the visitors were from different countries. The Safari Park is 10 acres with trails surrounded with typical Everglades’ vegetation. The Air Boat ride is a must and quite thrilling as it is maneuvered in every direction, skimming over the water and grass at more than 30 miles per hour. The experience is not expensive and well worth the time and money. You may contact the Everglades Safari Park by phoning (305) 226-6923 for reservations and more information. If you are into beach activity and perhaps getting a Florida tan, Ft. Lauderdale is a good place. There are many fine hotels and resorts here and it is easy to find a location to suit your budget. We departed here on an MSC cruise ship bound for the Caribbean islands. Next week we will outline this fine cruise experience.

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY BACK WHEN | STAN BROWN
Wild West in the Rim Country CHAPTER 14: THE MURDER OF CLINT WINGFIELD They called him “Black Jack” Ketchum, but the gambling done by Thomas Edward Ketchum was in robbing banks, holding up trains, and leaving a trail of cold blooded murders across Texas, New Mexico and eastern Arizona. It was July 2, 1899, about 8 o’clock in the evening that Ketchum rode up to the old sutler’s store in Camp Verde, and within minutes had shot and killed the owners, “Mack” Rogers and Clint Wingfield. R. M. “Mack” Rogers had lived in Texas some years earlier, and in 1898 he joined relatives in the Verde Valley. There he met and went into partnership with STAN BROWN Clint Wingfield. Several Wingfield families had established ranches and fruit farms around Beaver and Clear Creeks in the Verde Valley, and Clint’s parents had settled in Strawberry where his father helped build the old school house that still stands as a historical landmark. As Clint came into his own he ranched cattle up on the Mogollon Rim – Clint’s Well is named for him. Mack Rogers had made an enemy in Camp Verde of an alleged horse thief named Roger Wade, bringing evidence against him. Wade threatened to get even, though it is not known if he made a deal with Tom Ketchum to kill Rogers. Another theory behind the killings is that many local ranchers deposited their money for safe keeping with the merchants Rogers and Wingfield and Ketchum learned of this. He needed money between bank heists and had come to rob them. On Camp Verde’s Main Street there is a quadrangle of small stores including the historical building built in the 1860s to provide merchandise for soldiers’ families at Fort Verde. A plaque on the building denotes its long tradition as the oldest continuously operating business in Yavapai County. This store was bought by Rogers and Wingfield in 1898. On that July evening in 1899, as dusk settled over the Verde Valley, Clint Wingfield went into the office to do some paper work before closing up. Mack Rogers and the store clerk Lou Turner went out on the porch to visit. Joining them to chat were mail carrier Dick Hopkins and retired
cavalry officer John Boyd. The four men observed a stranger getting off his horse some distance away. He tied his horse to a tree and began walking toward the store. Rogers asked the man if he needed any supplies before they closed up for the night, and at the same time he was somewhat sure he recognized Tom Clint Wingfield’s Ketchum from the days brother Frank was a when they both lived in member of the posse, Texas. The fellow said he and later reported how didn’t need anything, he pressed them to stay and Rogers turned to with the hunt, even lock the door.

Witnesses back in Arizona positively identified him as the one who killed Rogers and Wingfield. As for Ketchum, New Mexico refused to extradite him to Arizona. The legal proceedings went on for a year, during which time he talked to many about his career as an outlaw, tried to escape once and to commit suicide twice. Finally he was convicted of the train robberies and on April 26, 1901 the 37-year-old Tom Ketchum was hung. It was a big day in Clayton, New Mexico Territory. Businesses were closed, except for saloons, and tickets were sold to the hanging. People even purchased souvenir dolls of Ketchum hanging from a stick. The sheriff on Union County, New Mexico, was inexperienced at such things and allowed the drop to be too long for Ketchum’s weight. As a result he was beheaded by the loose. The town doctor sewed Tom’s head back on for burial later that afternoon.

COVER STORY | ANDY TOWLE
Andy Towle photos
As a tribute to the 9-11 Twin Towers event, Kratos created this piece, photo above. Some of his work is done by request, others just happen through ideas, conversations or life events. With spray paint as a medium Kratos does not have a typical artist’s tool box.
Spray paint artist has over-the-top creative energy Backhoe operator turned artist makes any surface explode with color Kratos, the popular video-game hero of “God of War,” and Kratos, the not-so-well-known Payson spray paint artist, share obvious similarities: bald heads, bearded chins, scars of battle, and colorful tattoos. Oh yeah — and a rollicking, over-the-top creative energy. A character in a game, however, cannot match Kratos Lira’s inner strength, a drive to create, and the skill to transform a bare surface into a spray-painted marvel of design. Kratos’ current project is helping bring life to a wall with a mural and a salute to the many generations of veterans. You can see it on Highway 87, going south just past the Twin Pines shopping area. Lira, a construction worker, worked a backhoe with precision and skill for 20 some odd years. Originally from San Diego, Lira and his family gravitated to Arizona so his daughter could attend the University of Arizona. Eventually, they found their way to Payson and have recently purchased a home. CONTINUED ON PAGE 9
A discarded cabinet door is transformed into otherworldly artwork. While he blends a bit of Salvador Dali, Ryan Bliss and El Greco into pieces, they all retain the unique signature of Kratos. Many of his pieces are woodland scenes, waterscapes, and skylines .

Pencil in hand, paper in place - the imagination of every artist starts with these most basic of tools.
Artist’s style blends and flows FROM PAGE 8
Nine years ago, he injured a knee, but continued to work until the need for surgery arose, two years ago. He went to physical therapy, but never recovered enough to resume his construction work. That put a crimp in his paychecks. But in truth, Kratos, also known as Giovanni Lira, has always been an artist at heart. A tattoo artist friend recognized his talent and encouraged him to put his drawing skills into another medium — tattooing. Kratos said ‘no’ to that. So his friend suggested spray painting. Intrigued by a challenge, Kratos splattered his art with cans of pressurized, colored liquid. He discovered Brandon McConnell, a famous spray paint artist, and viewed his YouTube videos. This introduction provided a variety of skills for applying his art. Using common household tools, Kratos regularly surprises onlookers with his deft ability to spray paint original art onto any surface: doors, tables, cabinets, tiles, poster board, glass, whatever. He transforms ordinary objects into works of art as he smudges and smears and splatters and sprays. Creative people always find an outlet, sometimes more than one. Kratos’ creativity craves a constant expression — airbrush techniques need exploration, duradangos look for an outlet, glazes await discovery. Kratos’ electric energy surges through conversations, throwing off sparks of insight. Careful with his colors, Kratos’ instinctive style blends complimentary primaries together as distinctive designs take shape. Many of his scenes are otherworldly, as if he sees other planets, other solar systems. His workshop explodes with art. Paintings are stacked here and there, some look finished, others abandoned; tools lie on a workbench as if just thrown on the table moments ago. Cloths drape over areas of the studio, hiding otherworldly artwork, important pictures, covering that which is private. One feels the comfort zone of this space. Intense work and creative ideas are born here and manifest themselves on any surface Kratos finds available.

AROUND ARIZONA
Get an early start on that spring fling There is a wide array of activities throughout Arizona this weekend, so get an early start on that spring fling. Go to the opera, take in one of the best arts festivals in the country, tour the historic homes of the Globe area or tour an even more historic site at Wupatki National Monument or kick up your heels in Renaissance fashion at the annual Renaissance Fair in Apache Junction. Arizona Opera presents Aida
Verdi’s dramatic masterpiece returns to Arizona Opera after a 13-year absence. Performances are March 9-11 in Phoenix. Arizona Opera is pulling out all the stops for Giuseppe Verdi’s epic 1871 masterpiece Aida. Set in ancient Egypt, the much-loved Italian opera is packed with everything from massive sets and a grand processional with animals to a classic love triangle and unforgettable melodies (“Celeste Aida,” “Ritorna vincitor”). Arizona Opera’s production of Aida promises to thrill opera aficionados and newbies alike. “Aida is about both spectacle and great singing,” said Arizona Opera General Director Scott Altman. Sopranos Lisa Daltirus and Mary Elizabeth Williams are double-cast in the demanding title role of the captive Ethiopian princess. Tenor Arnold Rawls follows up last season’s great success in Arizona Opera’s production of Turandot with the part of Radames, the Egyptian captain secretly in love with Aida. Mezzosopranos Daveda Karanas (an ASU alumna) and Dana Beth Miller share the role of the Egyptian king’s daughter Amneris. Bass-baritone Kevin Short makes his Arizona Opera debut as Aida’s father Amonasro. Performances are at 7:30 p.m., Friday, March 9 and Saturday, March 10 and 2 p.m., Sunday, March 11 at Phoenix Symphony
Hall, 75 North 2nd Street, Phoenix. Ticket prices begin at $25 and are available at all Ticketmaster outlets by calling 1800-982-2787 or visiting online www.ticketmaster.com. Tickets are also available through the Arizona Opera Box Office from 10 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. at (602) 266-7464 in Phoenix or www.azopera.org. 42nd Scottsdale Arts Festival
March 9–11, 2012 Friday/Saturday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Sunday, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. The Scottsdale Arts Festival is known for showcasing thousands of works of art in every imaginable style, but Texas artist Natalie Irish is sure to turn heads this year with her eye-popping celebrity portraits created with lipstick and hundreds of her carefully planted kisses. Irish will be in residence during the three-day festival on March 9–11 exhibiting her works and demonstrating her unconventional artistic technique that recently has attracted international headlines from The Huffington Post, Yahoo!, Time, Glamour and Daily Mail. The YouTube video of Irish at work on a portrait of Marilyn Monroe has been viewed more than 500,000 times. Born in New Orleans in 1982, Irish has lived and worked in the Houston area most of her life. Beginning in 2001, she pioneered the painting technique of applying lipstick and kissing a canvas to create an image. She has had solo exhibitions in Houston and Dallas, and her work has been shown in the Roy Rogers Museum in Branson, Mo., and Ripley’s Believe it or Not! in London. Returning by popular demand, the gourmet mobile eateries of the Phoenix Street Food Coalition will serve up delicious international cuisine at the festival. The awardwinning three-day festival will

antique show and quilt show. Tours leave from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days from the train depot in downtown Globe, a delightfully restored building that sets the tone for this year’s tour. One of the highlights of this year’s tour will be a territorial day boarding house located just outside the old downtown. The building was built in the late 1890s and boasted several uses before becoming a private family home in 1950s. It is amazingly intact with the many outside doors and windows from the original boarding house structure. The building is undergoing renovation, but the owner has fallen in love with its unique character and is working to keep that flavor. The property includes a storage cave literally carved out of the stone mountain behind the house, as well as an original outhouse carved in stone. One of the early day adobe buildings in downtown Globe is a small house that now houses the guest house and studio for a local artist. The home is beautifully furnished in period pieces. A window on the outside wall allows visitors to see the adobe underneath, as the building is in such good repair visitors find it hard to believe it is adobe. Other stops at homes in this historic mining town will give visitors a taste of how our territorial day residents live. And as for how they rested after death? This year’s tour includes a trip through the old Globe Cemetery. Imagine the hearse climbing the dusty hills above Globe; see the resting place of early day Apache Scout Al Seiber and Glenn Reynolds, a sheriff killed by Apaches. The Masons, the Elks and the Oddfellows all had special plots in the cemetery for their members. History buffs won’t want to miss this special part of the tour. These are just a few of the stops planned for this year’s tour. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for children 12 and under. Courtesy of the many volunteers who staff this tour, visitors will be driven to each stop, where they are invited to hear from hosts and hostesses about the history of that particular stop. The Gila County Historical Society will have its annual antique show both days at the Globe High School, which will have its new Hall of Fame open for the weekend. The first class to attend all four classes at the thennew Globe High School graduated in 1912. The Copper Country Quilters Guild will have guild members on hand to show the special quilts on
display at their annual Pieces of Friendship show at the Cobre Valley Center for the Arts; and while you’re there, try and visualize how lovely the opportunity quilt will look in your home… then buy a ticket! The Globe-Miami Chamber of Commerce sponsors the annual Home Tour. For more information, call (928) 425-4495 or tollfree 800-804-5623.

FIRM FOUNDATION | SIMONE LAKE
Friend or foe Look around the world today and you will see dissension, disagreements, disunity… there is discord all around! Don’t take my word for it; you can just look every day in the multiple myriads of media as a confirmation. The Internet alone, not to mention television and radio, informs the world at large that this is so. The rumblings increase greatly, causing these disasters to increase. Because of this, human relationships are utterly diminished. Trust is no longer valid among people and suspicion is heightened. It has become a new way to assess those who previously were trusted. A new reality is formed, creating a new attitude in daily living. Those who were once beloved and treasured friends become foes and hated enemies. How do we stop this madness? I am glad you asked! Jesus Himself knows this to be so with humans living here on earth. He tells us, “And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled…” - Matt 24:6 “For from now on five in one house SIMONE LAKE will be divided: three against two, and two against three. “Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” - Luke 12:52-53 Jesus knew about the dynamics of human relationships here on earth. Not only did He know about them, He endured many of the divisions and contentions Himself. We stop the madness by trusting in the Prince of Peace - Jesus. Would you hire your worst enemy to work for you? Interesting thought isn’t it? After dealing with an individual who would definitely get an “F minus” on the report card of friendship, it seems completely absurd to consider him as a friend much less entrust him to the precious details of work, especially your own work, your business, something that you labored after your whole life long… How can that person ever be trusted? Jesus brought reconciliation between God and humans. Jesus did this by dying on the cross.
Since the days of Adam and Eve, human kind was separated by God because of our sin… disobedience against Him. Ever since that day, and even before, God set out in a passionate love quest, seeking after mankind to restore, renew and reconcile a broken relationship between God and man. Us humans being the enemies of God, disobeying and walking far from Him in disunity, purposefully stirring up discord between ourselves and God… this is our human nature. The beauty of this whole equation is Jesus. Jesus died on the cross, rose from the dead and ascended to heaven to currently sit on the right side of God praying for us on earth. He made a way for all those who where once enemies of God to now become His friends by believing and receiving Him as Lord of their lives and follow Him in all they do. Then He invites us, former enemies, to work for Him. Working by joining Him in the great quest of reconciliation, His enemies back to Him through His son Jesus Christ. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. - Matthew 28:19-20 “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain...” - John 15:16 FRIEND OF GOD Jesus calls us friends when we receive Him as Lord “No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.” - Matthew 15:15 What joy! What delight! Imagine out of the entire universe and all the creation, a holy pure God in heaven considers those on earth who receive and believe in Him, His friends. Who has heard of such a thing? A severe enemy is now a close friend. God is the same yesterday, today and forever! Because God considered those in the Bible His friends how much more will he consider us His friend? He is not a respecter of persons. There is equity at the cross. God spoke to Moses face to face as a friend of God. So the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. - Exodus 33:11 Abraham, another patriarch of the Old Testament was called a friend of God by James “And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ‘Abraham
believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.’ And he was called the friend of God.” - James 2:23 But like all friendships, there are boundaries to revere, offenses to steer clear from and most importantly unity and loyalty to align to. I am so thankful that God calls me His friend and He is my Beloved Savior QUESTIONS 1. Which are you, a friend or foe of Jesus? Seek to be His friend instead of foe and attain riches that will last for eternity? 2. If you are a foe, will you seek His reconciliation plan and become His friend and work for Him forever? 3. Would you lay down your enemy characteristics towards God and seek after His friendship?

The Phoenix Symphony continues the 2011/2012 APS Pops Series with a soulful performance of Motown's iconic songs. With the help of Tituss Burgess, Joy Lynn Matthews and Ramona Keller, Resident Conductor Joseph Young and The Phoenix Symphony will perform the Motown hits that revolutionized
America's music culture during the 60s with Billboard top singles by Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Supremes, Jackson 5 and many more. Tituss Burgess, known for his outstanding tenor voice, made his 2005 Broadway debut in Good Vibrations. His extensive performance experience includes Broadway hits like Guys and Dolls, The Little Mermaid and Jersey Boys. He also starred in many shows touring the country including: The Wiz and Abelard and Heloise. In the Broadway productions of Marie Christine and a Ragtime revival, Joy Lynn Matthews proved to have incredible vocal capabilities and acting chops. Matthews' repertoire includes performances in the Broadway hits The King and I, Man of La
Mancha and West Side Story. Known for her dynamic performance and vocal range, Ramona Keller, a soprano, has performed on the "Great White Way" three times. She established herself as a strong force in Broadway with incredible productions like Caroline or Change and BKLYN The Musical. Part of the APS Pops Series: Motown's Greatest Hits is partially sponsored by US Bank and Ellen and Howard Katz. The performances will be held at Symphony Hall on March 16 at 8 p.m. and March 18 at 2 p.m. The March 17 performance will be held at the Orpheum Theatre at 8 p.m. Tickets for Motown's Greatest Hits start at $18 and can be purchased by calling The Phoenix Symphony Box Office at (602) 495-1999 or by visiting www.phoenixsymphony.org.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a good time to reassess important relationships, both personal and professional, to see where problems might exist and how they can be overcome. Keep communication lines open. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s not easy to bring order to a chaotic situation, whether it’s in the workplace or at home. But if anyone can do it, you can. A pleasant surprise awaits you by week’s end. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be careful that you don’t make an upcoming decision solely on the word of those who might have their own reasons for wanting you to act as they suggest. Check things out for yourself. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A personal relationship that seems to be going nowhere could be restarted once you know why it stalled. An honest discussion could result in some surprising revelations. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) That unexpected attack of self-doubt could be a way of warning yourself to go slow before making a career-changing decision. Take more time to do a closer study of the facts. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) A workplace problem needs your attention, now, before it deteriorates to a point beyond repair. A trusted third party could be helpful in closing the gaps that have opened. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A recent family situation could give rise to a new problem. Keep an open mind and avoid making judgments about anyone’s motives until all the facts are in. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Rely on your always-sharp intuition to alert you to potential problems with someone’s attempt to explain away the circumstances behind a puzzling incident. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Although you still need to do some snipping off of those lingering loose ends from a past project, you can begin moving on to something else. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) With your self-confidence levels rising, you should feel quite comfortable with agreeing to take on a possibly troublesome, but potentially well-rewarded, situation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Travel is favored, both for business and for fun. The end of the week brings news about an upcoming project that could lead toward that promised career change. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You might feel suddenly overwhelmed by a flood of responsibilities. But if you deal with each one in its turn, you’ll soon be able to hold your head above water and move on. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a wonderful way of offering comfort as well as guidance. You would do well in the healing arts. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.
