I also had a little trouble subscribing. It’s a bit confusing with the math 
problem. I tried a couple of times and finally got it.

Good luck

David, did you check just above the heading level 1 “Newsletter” after entering 
your email, completing the math question and activating the Submit button?

I had no issues and while the form was back asking for email address and math 
question after I submitted it, checking the page showed me the following:

 

You will receive a confirmation e-mail shortly containing further instructions 
on how to complete your subscription.

 

Once again, this is just above the Newsletter heading 1. Could this be maybe 
done better? Probably, but I’m not a web developer and I am used to this kind 
of behaviour with respect to confirmations so I always look for it. I ooften 
start out by doing a Jaws Find search for the word “Thank” since often 
confirmations contain “Thanks” or “Thank you”. If that doesn’t result in a hit, 
I try “confirm” or even look for buttons since sometimes after a confirmation 
message there is an OK or Close button. In this case, there is “close”, but 
it’s a link and not a button.

 

In any case, I also received the promised email within seconds after completing 
the form so this all works fine as far as I am concerned. If you don’t see the 
email, make sure you check in your Junkmail/Spam folder. Mine clearly said it 
was from Applevis and the subject is “Confirmation needed for AppleVis 
newsletter subscription”. In the email it says that I subscribed and it gives 
the email address I used, then it says to “Use this link to confirm your 
subscription” an the “confirm your subscription” is the actual link.

 

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

RE: question about air tags

[Sharon S]

Hi, my parents have had them in their suitcases for many of their trips with no 
issue finding them. Dad has also hidden one in his car to see if it goes 
anywhere when he is away. The sort of tag my parents use actually got detected 
on my brother’s phone when he was in dad’s car once. He got a message that 
there was a tracking device following him.

I am not sure how to answer your question. I imagine it difficult to work. This 
device is too tiny and its antenna may not pick up the signals inside a 
suitcase. Also if you are looking for your item, you may not be able to hear 
the sound if it is hidden inside a suitcase or backpack.

 Yes you have to activate each of them individually. You also need to buy each

RE: Would This Work?

[Sharon S]

Hi, the only other suggestion I have is to restrict the area the cats can have 
their balls in. This way you won't be hunting them all over the house, you will 
have a good idea where it might be. Otherwise the tags sound like a good idea 
to me if they can fit in the balls and not come out while the cats are playing.

They have lots of active toys and I play with them regularly. But I like the 
feeder balls because it makes them hunt for their food, which makes them more

RE: What does a water bird have to do with money RE: Need A New Money Reading App

Thanks Sieghard for the great loon sounds.

 

I carved out the three calls from the Bird Note recording.

I think the tremolo in particular would make a great alarm, who wouldn’t wake

Hi Alan,

 

I also prefer using a credit card especially since here in Canada it is now 
extremely rare that you can't simply tap the card or of course I can use Apple 
Pay with my iPhone or Apple Watch, but I find having a bit of cash in my wallet 
is still handy for certain things. One example is when I take a taxi, here in 
our small town they now finally have meters, but those only apply when you take 
a longer trip out of town, in town any trip is still $12 and I usually give the 
driver a bit of a tip, if I want to do this with a card (and they only accept 
debit cards at this point due to the much lower fees) I would have to ask the 
driver to set it up with a $2 tip or 15% of whatever whereas it's really handy 
to have a $10 bill and a couple of Toonies or a $10 and a $5 bill and ask him 
for a Dollar change.

 

And for all you non-Canadians who probably have no idea what a "Toonie" is, 
it's our nick name for a 2 Dollar coin. The word is made up from "Loonie" our 1 
Dollar coin which was introduced to replace the 1 Dollar bill in 1987 and the 
number 2.

The Loonie name comes from the picture of the Common Loon which is on one side 
of the coin, this is a water bird which occurs regularly in every single 
Canadian province and Territory, in fact, 95% of the world's Loon population 
breed in Canada, it's also found in Alaska, northern Minnesota and New England.

The Loon is the provincial bird for the province of Ontario and while Canada 
doesn't currently have a national bird, most Canadians think this should be the 
one.

The call of the Loon is very distinct and has 3 main variations, Whale (almost 
like a wolf howl), Laugh or Tremolo and Yodel.

Below are a few facts and then two links, one to an article (it doesn't have 
the recording), and two more for different recordings of the Loon calls:

 

• chick can swim right away, but spends some time on the back of a parent to 
rest, conserve heat, and avoid predators

• has many bones that are solid, rather than hollow like those of other birds, 
which aid its diving ability

• can stay under water for up to 5 minutes and dive to depths of 60 to 70 m 
(196 to 229 feet)

• may have to run as far as several hundred metres (800 to 1000 feet) on the 
surface of the water on a calm day before gaining enough speed to take off 

• Loons can live up to 30 years, longer than Canada Geese (24 years) and much 
longer than ducks (10 years)

• Although no one is sure why, Common loons' eyes are bright red in the summer. 
They then change colour in the fall, fading to a dull reddish brown, while

their striking black and white plumage fades to grey.

• Species include the most common and recognizable black and white Common Loon, 
the Red-throated Loon, the Pacific Loon, the Arctic Loon and the Yellow-billed 
Loon.

This one I couldn't set up to play automatically, but there are only 3 buttons 
on the page once it loads, use the "b" quick nav key until you get to the Play

And back to the topic of money, our smallest bill is 5 Dollars and just as in 
the US we also have a 10, 20, 50 and 100 Dollar bill, all of them are made from 
a polymer plastic which is super tough, you can put it through the washer 
without ill effect, and all bills are marked with 6-dot braille symbols which 
ultimately can wear off as well, but it takes a really long time. A $5 bill has

Hello,

Debby, thanks for such a positive and helpful response.  Your suggestion to
use the rotor to find links and then flick to the link was a big part of
the solution.  After doing that I ended up having to take it a bit further
by performing a one-finger triple tap (long press) on the link.  I
then found and double tapped the Open Link button after which Safari opened
and presented me with the page on which I was able to allow access.

Thanks again and all the best

No Longer Able to Activate Links in Amazon Security Alert Text Messages

[Sharon Morton]

Hello,

For whatever reason, and it's driving me crazy, I can no longer activate
links in security alert text messages from Amazon.  Such messages get sent
when Amazon accounts are accessed from unknown devices, and/or when
sensitive account areas, E.G., change password, are accessed.  Normally,
it's just a matter of double tapping the link after which a page appears
allowing one to approve or deny the request.  On my iPhone SE2 running the
current version of iOS, double tapping such links does absolutely nothing.
I handed my iPhone to a partially sighted friend, who, after I turned off
VoiceOver, was able to activate the link for me.

Needless to say, I feel somewhat foolish having successfully used iOS with
voiceover for several years and now find myself with a very basic problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks and all the best

Sharon

Hello, I am coming to the end of a contract with Virgin, and my 6S. I have

opinion is on this phone, compared to an SE 2020. Thanks

RE: Hearing the name of the group

[Sharon S]

Hi, this isn't my only group that doesn't have it's name in the subject line so 
when looking at mail on my phone I don't know which group some messages are 
from. It is only when I et onto my computer where I have messages sorted into 
different folders I work out which list things are from. Of course, this isn't 
a problem if there is something obvious in the subject but this isn't always 
the case.

RE: Siri problem

[Sharon]

I liked the Siri male voice the best. However, it would not stay as my default. 
When I turned voice over off, and back on, it would always go back to Samantha. 
I have now down loaded Alex, and he won the battle.

I have a few points to make on this thread. First is that Marilyn has nothing 
to apologize for, and I hope she doesn’t judge this whole list by a few rude 
members. As anyone can tell, this list is full of members who want to help 
other blind people. But it also can’t keep mean and self righteous people from 
joining the list.

 

IMHO, the moderator doesn’t need to give this person a second chance before 
kicking them off the list. Marilyn made an honest mistake, but anyone who would 
tell someone else on the list that they don’t have a brain, is just not someone 
who should be given another chance or be allowed on this list.

 

Finally, I’m on plenty of lists which have nothing to do with blindness and I 
don’t find blindness related lists to have a greater number of rude people on 
it then your average list. I wish it were the case that blind people would 
kinder and more gracious then the general public, but unfortunately this isn’t 
the case. I also don’t think that the opposite is true, and that is that the 
blindness community is more mean spirited or has more rude people in it then 
the general community. I find this to be just another unsubstantiated prejudice 
against blind people.

RE: Scanning solution

[Sharon S]

Hi, could someone please send me a link for where I can buy the Fopydo stand? I 
tried going through his site but have received no response. My mum was looking 
at buying one for me awhile ago and after asking about the book reading 
attachment we heard no more. I have tried sending a message to the selling the 
other day to see if I can get a response now but if there is another place to 
buy it then I would like to have the link.

 

Thanks for any help.

Thanks Sieghard for chiming in from a business perspective. 

I don't think $20 is too high for that stand.

Before you get a ton of emails, NFB is very much a private nonprofit. 

Before anyone else chimes in, all nonprofits who sell things, have to make 
enough of a profit to stay in business; maybe not as much as a retailer since 
the nonprofit isn't paying property tax, etc., but they have to pay utility 
bills, rent or building maintenance if they own their building, etc.

When I was involved in testing the prototypes of the Fopydo stand, I told him 
he should charge more; but he was doing it as a service, not as a money maker.

All would have been fine if the post office where he lives would have allowed 
him to continue.

He had letters from each customer stating that they are blind and using the 
stand to scan printed documents; but that apparently wasn't good enough for 
them.

O well.

And if the person who makes this stand and who used to sell it for $12 now 
sells it for $12 to NFB you should not expect them to sell it for $15, that is 
a 20% margin and no business can survive on that.

As a retailer I have often come across somebody who thought they had this 
awesome product and they wanted me to sell it. At the same time they would sell 
it themselves for say $50 and then I asked them what I would have to pay for 
the product. In many cases they told me the would give me a 10% or 15% discount 
for selling their product and they were surprised when I told them that in 
retail that unfortunately does not cut it. It is often impossible to explain to 
somebody that they would have to sell it to me for $30 if they want me to sell 
it for $50 if it should be worth my while or, if they want to sell it to me for 
$45 and I would have to sell it for $75 to make a decent margin that they also 
should sell it for that price themselves.

Of course if they want me to sell something on consignment where they give me 
the product and I only pay them for what I sell I can go a bit lower, but at 
the same time I may have competing products which I sell at a 35% or 40% margin 
and there is very little incentive for me to try and sell the customer that 
other product where I may only make a 25% margin.

And if shipping is involved I don’t blame anybody who charges a handling fee if 
they have to stock, pack and ship a product for which they make a $3 profit. I 
understand the NFB in the US is a government agency or maybe I’m wrong, here in 
Canada we have the CNIB (Canadian Federation for the Blind) and while they are 
a government agency, they also sell products for profit at their stores and I 
don’t blame them because just as with most government agencies funding is 
always a problem and they often have to find ways to make a bit of money to 
support their programs.

So, are they charging $20 total? 

Tomek charged $12, and shipped free matter without charging anything for 
handling. He would ship on the weekends while he was home from his day job 
which often required some travel.

He was not making any money really other than being able to continue buying the 
materials.

So, on the one hand, if he is still able to make them because the NFB is 
selling them for a small profit, that is fine.

 The week of the 25th, I will be writing up a review of another inexpensive 
stand option.

Hi,

I could be wrong but I somehow suspect that a thermometer might not be 
returnable being deemed a personal health item if not before this virus 
business then definitely afterwards.

And how lovely of Mary to help her friend that way though were it me I'd just 
let her keep the thermometer especially if it were an under the tongue one.

I have one of the talking infrared scanning ones. I got it ages ago from the 
Speak to Me Catalog. Not sure if they're even open let alone have stock but 
it's a neat thing that runs on 2 triple a batteries and can either be used in 
ear or on forehead.

Are all of the ones mentioned with apps under the tongue or scanning type ones? 
I'm frankly surprised the Exergen thermometer which is heavily advertised 
typically in Winter doesn't make a talking one or have an app linked 
thermometer.

Stay well and take good care everybody.

Hi,
I guess you hadn't noticed a similar message I had asked. If you want
your ringtones  to show up on your phone you have to copy them from
your harddrive on your computer and then you have to bring iTunes up
and go to your iPhone and tab to the summary tab and arrow down and
paste them in the ringtones . For some reason iTunes no longer has a

Hi Sharon,

There is no tones library any more in the media section, only when your phone 
is connected in the device section.
Here is what you do:
1. Connect your phone and open iTunes.
2. Find the "iPhone" button and activate it.
3. Use F6 or tab to get into the treeview where you will be on the "Summary" 
tab 4. Type "T O" and it will go down to "Tones", it could be the last item or 
if not near the bottom of the treeview, but first letter navigation works.
5. Tab a few times until you are in the list of tones.
6. If you want to add a tone go to where you have it saved on your computer, I 
assume you are using Windows. Simply copy the tone with Control+C, go back to 
iTunes and your list of tones and paste it there with Control+V.

If you want to delete tones you have to tab a lot when you are on the Summary 
tab and check the "manually manage videos and songs" or something like that. 
You can add tones if you leave this unchecked, but only if you check this you 
can simply press delete on a tone and it will be removed from your phone.

upgraded to ios 11. I do not see anywhere in the new iTunes to put
them back on my phone. Can someone tell me how I would go about doing
this? Thanks for any help.

Gem IV

[Sharon]

Hi,
If you are wanting to get on Gem Iv, you have to go to play.net and log in and 
pick gem IV in the games, and if you have a character created you have to check 
the box by the character name and go down and pick other options and click the 
wizard check box and save that sal file. It has all the log in information that 
you will need. It is just like connecting to dragon rhelms.

Requesting recommendations for an app to learn essential Spanish to aid when travelling, and a translation app

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi All,

I am being sent from Canada to a conference in Lima Peru next month. I will 
have benefit of a translator for the conference proceedings.

I am only in Lima for a week but I would like to get some sense of being able 
to communicate common courtesies and basic survival phrases. I am totally blind 
so need it to be accessible with voice over, not reliant on any visual.

Also, what might you recommend for an English to Spanish translation web site 
or app?

I have not yet sorted out if I will even be able to use my phone as Canada has 
crazy cell charges and roaming charges that are even more crazy!

Thank-you for any recommendations.

Lastly, kind of unrelated,  if anyone has travelled to Lima, I would love to 
hear about experiences/advice  which you could post me about privately.

sbal...@nexicom.net <mailto:sbal...@nexicom.net>

With thanks and appreciation.

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi All:

Can anyone provide any information for a Braille and regular ink print printer. 
Someone is looking for a Braille print printer for use with a MAC computer and 
has both iPhone and iPad so is hoping to have the air print option.

What kinds of dual Braille and print printer exists for MAC?

What software would be needed for the MAC and what apps might you recommend?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Adding audio books

[Sharon]

Hi all,

I am not sure this has been covered, but when I try to add a folder that has
mp3 files  of audio books into iTunes it gives me the ding that it has moved
it into my library but I do not see the book in my library. I know if I
combine all the files into 1 big file and then try to transfer it into
iTunes it works just fine, but that is so time consuming. If anyone has any
suggestions on how to make this less tedious I would greatly appreciate it.

 

Thanks,

 

Sharon

Hi Sharon and John,

Now that there are interactive notifications removing and adding items is
done from Notification Centre. Pull down with 3 fingers after touching the
status bar to open the Notification Centre. At the bottom you will find an
Edit button. Double tap it and now you will see the items in the
Notification Centre and there is a Delete button to the left. After the
items that are in Notification Centre are those which are not and also apps
are listed which can be inserted into Notification Centre. 2 examples, if
you have these apps installed, are Audible Stats and Dropbox. If you insert
them you will be able to see your listening statistics in Notification
Centre and you will be able to see a list of recently added and changed
files for Dropbox.

RE: Kings Corner

[Sharon]

Hi,
Thanks, that helped, and I actually won my first game. grin

Of Richard Turner
Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 11:43 AM
To: viphone@googlegroups.com
Subject: RE: Kings Corner

Picture a square.
The Kings go in the corners.
In the middle spots between the kings are four places where the other cards
are laid out.  The center is left empty.
So a potential of 8 piles of cards.  Starting in the upper left you might
have, an empty king's spot, to the right a 3 of diamonds, to the right of
that in the upper right-hand corner another empty king's spot.  In the
middle right you might have a jack of clubs, in the lower right another
empty king's spot.
In the bottom row middle, you might have a 5 of spades.  IN the lower left
might be dealt a king of hearts or it could be another empty spot.  Finally,
in the middle left spot you may have a 4 of spades.

It is like solitaire, where you have to place the cards in descending order
alternating between red and black.
So, in my example, starting off you could move the 3 of diamonds onto the 4
of spades.  You double tap and hold on the card you want to move, wait for
the tones, then slide your finger on the card where you want to place that
card.  Only places where it is legal to drop a card will speak.  So, when
you slide the 3 of diamonds onto the 4 of spades, you will hear "4 of
spades" spoken and lift your finger and that pile will now read, 4 of spades
to 3 of diamonds.
You now have an empty spot in the top middle, so you could move one of the 7
cards you were dealt to that location.
The ultimate goal is to run out of cards with as many empty spots as
possible.
On the king's in the corners, you place the queen, then jack etc. in
alternating colors.

I hope that helps,
Richard

Re: Choosing Provider

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Dear Chris,

I am also in southern Ontario. I think all the three providers have good 
coverage in southern Ontario. Look at the packages being offered and perhaps go 
with the payment range and coverage depending on what data you are wanting and 
phone options.

I am with Bell and have not had any problems but if you do need to call Bell 
for something, my experiences is be prepared for a long time on hold.

Virgin is associated with Bell. My daughter just dropped her Bell service and 
went with Virgin. She went from an iPhone 4 to the 5S and is really enjoying it.

You might also inquire about support as that may be a helpful factor as well.

Depending on the warranty plan you go with, costs can also bump up.

That sounds like an awesome price point.

Peace and Positivity

can't text on iPhone 4 still running last update of IOS 6

I am not aware of changing any settings or anything but with voice over on I am

can text just fine. With voice over on the area of the screen where the 
keyboard should respond just makes that “thunk” sound.

Do you have any ideas?

Help needed to make ibook read continuously with voice over in iOS 6 and in iOS 7

Will it be different in IOS 7 once I have that upgrade.

Is there an accessible app for the new DSM V

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hello,

I am searching for a searchable DSM V app. They seem to start at around 
twenty-five dollars and range to much higher.

The new DSM V was released in the spring.

I know the e-version is around one hundred fifty dollars but I am not sure how 
accessible that would be and I'd love the portability of being able to have it 
on my phone.

Applevis doesn't show any reviews.

This is a diagnostic manual that provides categories and criteria across the 
mental health spectrum. 

I am hoping there might be some on this list who may use this in their field of 
work and might direct me to an app that is accessible.

Please e-mail me off list.

looking for it in the app store and I couldn't find it either. Thanks for

Re: iPhone 4 help for overriding spelling and app swotcher question, related to using seeing Eye app

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi there,
Thank-you for your kindness in checking this spelling issue.

How do I disable the auto spelling correction feature?

Also do you know if I can check somewhere if I have somehow regarding the 
reality that my app switcher is no longer speaking that I have no items left in 
the app switcher? I must have done something but I have no idea what.

I really appreciate the clarification about the Seeing Eye app.

Peace and Positivity

iPhone 4 help for overriding spelling and app swotcher question, related to using seeing Eye app

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi All,

These questions likely apply to general phone use but I am asking in context of 
the new Seeing Eye app use.

I am trying to enter an address in the text field and it will not accept what I 
type and keeps changing my word to Breaker when the street name is Brealey. How 
do I make the auto correct not take over?

Also as Seeing Eye uses data, I am concerned about it running and using data 
when I may think it is off but may still be on. I have gone into app switcher 
doing double tap of the home button, doing the tap and hold until I hear 
editing apps when I can then do the split tap but voice over is not saying 
anything to tell me there is nothing left in the app switcher. I am sure it 
used to confirm the app switcher was empty.

Advice greatly appreciated.

Peace and Positivity

Sharon

Re: emoticons?

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Yes they are under keyboards. It has been awhile but I think under 
international keyboards. 

On my iPhone, it becomes a second keyboard option on the keyboard. I think 
someone told me the visual is a "world" keyboard. To select it go to the left 
of space button.

It is a tap and hold to switch keyboards. Similar to switching between the 
letter qwerty keyboard and numbers keyboard which si the next button over to 
the left (lower left corner of keyboard).

Note that the emotions will all speak when you are selecting them and there are 
tons of fun things that can be selected but if you are selecting images to be 
sent to an android, they appear as a tray rectangle i the midst of the text, 
but as the emoticons when communicating on an apple device. I do not know if 
this has been corrected recently.

Hi and welcome to the list. Just so you know, all new members are moderated
until we see they are real people. So, this is why some of your messages
didn't go to the list right away. Also, this is an iOS list which is mainly
about the iPhone and the iPod Touch and the apps which can be used on them.
Perhaps the blindphones list might be better to find out which Nokia apps
you can get. I don't have the information about the blindphones list, but
someone on here will no doubt reply with the information. Or, you can take a
look at the list archives of this list. The link is on every message and it
has a search so you can type a keyword. I know the blindphones list
information has been given before.

Good luck.

iPod with the newest IOS software on it and it works fine.

Help please, canI control contacts going from mountain lion to iPad and iPhone

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi all,

I recently upgraded my iMac to Mountain Lion IOS 10 and voila all my contacts 
all were magically placed on my iPad and iPhone. If I delete from onee, I am 
assuming that will delete from every device.

Can I set my iPhone and iPad so some of these contacts do not show up but stay 
in my Mac, as several are e-mail contacts only that I don't need on other 
devices.

Also can I do something to check for duplicates and merge information because 
now some of my contacts are duplicated.

Thank-you so much for suggestions.

Sharon

word search plus help

[Sharon]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can help me with this game. I know the tips say to
tap the first and last letter of a word when you find it, but how do you
know when the word is highlighted? Also how do you know if you have finished
the game? One other thing, does anyone have any suggestions on finding the
words that may go diagonally? Thanks for any help with this game?

Book Mark for self created audio files, advice needed

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi All,

I still have not found a suitable recorder that would allow me to preserve 
audio recordings (from audio tapes)tone indexing. 

I am wondering if I could use the book mark app. I know I would need to still 
individually put in the book marks where the tone indexes were but that is okay.

I have hundreds of children's books and I need advice on how you recommend I 
create such a library. I would want to be able to replay them on iPhone 4 or 
iPad 2. I need to be able to hold the book to read to children and listen with 
headphones or earbud. I have done this with an audio tape recorder for many 
years. I just don't want to accidentally tilt my i device mid reading or 
something and lose my place so I am nervous about what might be the best way.I 
am totally blind so use voice over for all of my screen navigation information.


I don't have any music on my i devices so I wondered about just making each 
book title its own file.
I have both MAC and PC computer.
Any recommendations about backing up would also be appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Peace, Justice, Grace and Blessings,

Sharon

RE: New Iphone game

[Sharon]

Hi,

If you have played any of the storemate games it is similar to how this is
played. You have to do certain jobs and you fight people. You can get a
special job which right now for me is printing counterfit bills and this
helps you jump up from 1 level to another quicker and earn a lot of cash.
The other thing is the FBI can take your cash and a family member, but you
can go after the FBI to get them back.

Re: As promised!!!

Hi,

I have been trying to purchase Anna's book tonight. Even with sighted help the 
shopping cart keeps saying it is empty after clicking on the book. I have 
selected the word download file format so that can't be the issue.

Quantity shows one.

When hitting purchase now the book disappears and the cart is empty.

We are missing something.

Thank-you for any help you can offer.

Re: Displays with the iPad

[Sharon Ballantyne]

Hi there,

I am a totally blind teacher who uses an iPad in my elementary school classroom.
 I switch between having the projection system connected to my laptop and the 
iPad all the time.

You need an adapter to connect the iPad tot he projection. I am sorry i bought 
the adapter six months or so ago and do not remember what it is called. It is 
super easy to use though. I also plug the iPad into a set of small computer 
speakers so I ahve full sound.
We use small group and large group activities. My students use lots of apps 
that are not even fully accessible to me but their eyes work, it is mine that 
do not, so it is all fine.

My students ahve also been doing searches for youtube videos for short 
presentations, for example, we are currently studying the environment and care 
of the earth. We project these videos from either the iPad or computer 
depending on which device we used to search.

All the best with your presentations.
