Ronnie Barrett

Ronnie G. Barrett (born 1954) is the founder of Barrett Firearms Manufacturing of Christiana, Tennessee, board member of the National Rifle Association of America, and the designer of the Barrett M82.

Life and career
Barrett was born in Murfreesboro, Tennessee in 1954, and graduated from Murfreesboro Central High School. He started his career in 1972 as a professional photographer for a studio in the same town. In 1982, while he owned a photography studio, he was inspired to create the Barrett M82. On January 1, 1982, when Barrett was photographing a river patrol gunboat on the Stones River near Nashville, Tennessee, a picture he shot of the twin Browning machine guns mounted prominently on the boat made him think of the .50 BMG cartridge and its potential for commercial users.

With no engineering background, Barrett hand-sketched plans at home for a .50BMG repeating semi-automatic rifle. Later, he found a partner in tool and die maker Bob Mitchell and an employee at a sheet metal fabricator in Smyrna, Tennessee. Four months later a prototype was finished. A second prototype shown off at a gun show in Houston would garner starting capital for Barrett from three investors, necessary for the Barrett Firearms Manufacturing company and production of the first 30 rifles for private use. Large-scale commercial success came when the CIA acquired an unknown number of rifles for arming the Afghan mujahideen as part of the Soviet–Afghan War effort. In 1989, the Swedish Army adopted the M82 as a sniper rifle. In 1990, the United States Armed Forces followed, and subsequently deployed the rifles during Operation Desert storm.

Barrett is an advocate for the private ownership of firearms. Barrett has headed fundraising campaigns for the National Rifle Association, sits on its board of directors, and makes occasional appearances on the Cam & Company podcast where he speaks on gun laws.

Barrett married former Tennessee State Rep. Donna Rowland in 2010.

Talk:Leslie H. Gelb

What year did he win the pulitzer prize
According to the pulitzer website the "Staff of New York Times" (which included Dr Gelb) won the prize in 1986, and not in 1985 as this article and its references claim. Shanes 17:03, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Eye
Why does Gelb have an eye patch, as noted in his interviews on the Charlie Rose Show?

--I was just about to ask the same question, I've seen pictures of him without it, and his eye is fine...but, this morning on C-SPAN, he was wearing a patch. --Goatrider 13:13, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Sydney Chaplin (American actor)

Sydney Earl Chaplin (March 30, 1926 – March 3, 2009) was an American actor. He was the second son of Charlie Chaplin and Lita Grey. One of his major roles was in his father's film Limelight (1952). In theater, Chaplin won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical for his 1957 performance in Bells Are Ringing.

Early years
Born in 1926 in Beverly Hills, California, Chaplin was the second son of Charlie Chaplin and Lita Grey. His parents had married in November 1924 when Lita became pregnant with Sydney's elder brother Charles. Sydney was born five weeks prematurely, 10 months after the birth of his older brother. He was named for his father's half-brother, Sydney Chaplin. His parents divorced a year after his birth. The boys later had eight half-siblings from their father's fourth marriage to Oona O'Neill.

His mother insisted on calling him "Tommy" due to her distaste for his namesake uncle. Sydney and his older brother were brought up mostly by their maternal grandmother, while his mother attempted to advance her career as a singer. The family spent most of one year in Nice, where the boys became fluent in French.

Chaplin was educated at the boarding schools Black-Foxe Military Institute and Lawrenceville School in New Jersey, as well as the public North Hollywood High School.

Career
After serving in the United States Army during World War II in Europe, Chaplin returned to California, where he became involved in acting both on stage and in films. He gained early acting experience in The Circle Theater, now known as El Centro Theatre, including acting in three plays directed by his father.

He also appeared in several Broadway productions, including Bells Are Ringing opposite Judy Holliday in 1957, for which he won a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical. In 1959, he costarred with Lauren Bacall in George Axelrod's comedy Goodbye Charlie and headlined Jule Styne's 1961 musical Subways Are for Sleeping. He played in Funny Girl opposite Barbra Streisand in 1964, for which he was nominated for a Tony Award. Chaplin also had supporting roles in two of his father's films, Limelight (1952) and A Countess from Hong Kong (1967).

Chaplin retired from acting in the 1970s. In the 1980s, he owned and managed a restaurant, Chaplin's, in Palm Springs, California.

Following his retirement from acting, Chaplin seldom made public appearances. Exceptions included his attendance at Cinecon in Los Angeles in 1998, and at the Cineteca di Bologna 2002 festival (Il Cinema Ritrovato), which mounted a fiftieth-anniversary screening of Limelight. He appeared also at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival in 2004, where he spoke after screenings of his father's film The Circus to promote film historian Jeffrey Vance's Chaplin books.

Personal life
In 1960 Chaplin married French dancer and actress Noëlle Adam, by whom he had one son, Stephan (b. 1960). In 1985 this marriage ended in divorce.

He became involved with Margaret Beebe in 1984. They married in 1998, and remained married until Chaplin's death.

Book
Chaplin helped complete and publish his mother's 1998 autobiography, Wife of the Life of the Party. He also wrote the book's foreword, where he shared some of his own history and private thoughts on his parents.

Death
At age 82, Chaplin died of a stroke on March 3, 2009, at his home in Rancho Mirage, California.

VDL DB250

The VDL DB250 (originally the DAF DB250) was a twin-axle double-decker bus chassis manufactured by VDL Bus & Coach.

DB250
The DAF DB250 was launched in October 1991 and originally only available with Optare Spectra bodywork with 260 built, mainly for operators in the United Kingdom.

25 DAF DB250s with Optare Spectra bodywork were delivered to London Buses in 1992, with all but one delivered to the London Central subsidiary with a single door arrangement; Metroline received a single dual door example for evaluating replacements for MCW Metrobuses on route 16. Capital Logistics also received a delayed order of six dual door Spectras in 1999 for their operation of route 60.

31 left-hand drive examples were exported to Turkey in 1994, with 26 being delivered to IETT in Istanbul and the remaining five being delivered to İzulaş in İzmir.

The DAF DB250 later became available with Northern Counties Palatine II bodywork in 1994. Cowie London purchased 13 Palatine IIs on the DB250 chassis, while Harris Bus would also acquire fleets of DB250s.

DB250LF
The DB250LF, the low-floor version of the DB250, was the first low-floor double-decker bus chassis available in the United Kingdom. The DB250LF is readily identified by the centrally-exiting exhaust at the rear, which can cause problems with extreme changes of slope. A revised version of DB250LF was launched in 2004 as the DB250+. The design has received a number of modifications, one of which is the use of independent front suspension.

The first DB250LFs received Optare Spectra body, which was sold exclusively on the DB250. The first low-floor variant entered service on 4 February 1998 with Abus of Bristol, narrowly beating a Travel West Midlands DB250LF to operate the first low floor double-decker bus service in the UK. Travel West Midlands would later go on to order 20 more Spectras in 1999. Additional operators of the DB250LF with Optare Spectra bodywork included Reading Buses, who purchased 26, and Wilts & Dorset, who purchased 78.

Later DB250 chassis were fitted with Alexander ALX400, Plaxton President, East Lancs Myllennium Lowlander and Wright Pulsar Gemini bodies. The development of a Wright alternative arose because Arriva wished to buy both the Wright body and DB250 chassis. Unable to do so, it instead purchased over 100 Wright Eclipse Gemini bodied Volvo B7TLs. Wright subsequently developed the Pulsar Gemini in 2003 in order to win more orders from Arriva.

Arriva London purchased and acquired 632 DB250s between 1998 and 2005 with Alexander ALX400 (389), Plaxton President (110) and Wright Pulsar Gemini (133) bodywork. Arriva Midlands and Arriva Yorkshire also purchased examples.

The DB250LF chassis was also adopted by Wrightbus for the development of its hybrid-powered double-decker bus, the Wright Pulsar Gemini HEV.

Production of the DB250 ended in 2006, although examples continued entering service until 2008. Its successor, the Wright Gemini 2 integral double decker with VDL chassis modules, was launched in November 2008.

Sons of Norway

Sons of Norway (Sønner av Norge), founded in 1895 as the Independent Order of the Sons of Norway, is a fraternal organization principally representing people of Norwegian heritage in the United States and Canada. The organization includes in its mission the promotion and preservation of the heritage and culture of Norway and other Nordic countries. It also sells life insurance and other financial products to its members. The organization is classified as a non-profit 501(c)(8) fraternal beneficiary society.

In the early 21st century, the Sons of Norway has nearly 400 lodges in the United States, Canada, and Norway. With more than 57,000 members, the Sons of Norway is the largest Norwegian organization outside of Norway.

Establishment

The Sons of Norway was founded as the Independent Order of the Sons of Norway. The organization was founded by 18 members on January 16, 1895, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, to insure each other when they were unable to secure life insurance on their own. Norwegian immigrants were still getting established in the United States, and were numerous in this city. Membership was originally open to males of Norwegian descent between the ages of 20 and 50 who were capable of giving proof of being morally upright, in good health, and capable of supporting a family.

A second lodge was established in South Minneapolis in 1899 and a third was founded in the northeastern section of the city in 1900. The Minneapolis model quickly spread and by the end of 1900, some 12 lodges of the organization had been established in cities and towns with substantial Norwegian-American populations across the American Upper Midwest.

From its origins in Minnesota, the organization spread to both coasts. A lodge of the order was established as far away as what was then the American territory of Alaska. Numerous Norwegian immigrants and their descendants worked on fishing boats based in such cities as Petersburg.

In 1903 a group in Seattle asked the Midwestern group for a charter; however, they did not wish to have compulsory insurance for the members, which the parent order had made part of membership. The Seattle group organized as Leif Erikson Lodge No. 1 in spite of the Midwest lodges. With other West Coast lodges it set up the Grand Lodge of the Sons of Norway of the Pacific Coast. The two orders quarreled until they held a convention in Superior, Wisconsin in June 1909, and bridged their differences to merge the next year.

By the time of the outbreak of World War I in 1914, the Sons of Norway claimed a membership of about 12,000.

Development
Originally established as a secret order, most of the ritualistic aspects of the order were removed in the early part of the twentieth century at the request of the Rev. Hans Gerhard Stub, president of the Norwegian Lutheran Synod.

The organization published an official monthly magazine, Sønner av Norge (Sons of Norway), which kept members abreast of activities of the group. Other activities included regular lectures on historical, cultural, and literary topics; essay and speech contests for students; and organized festivities for various national Norwegian holidays. The Sons of Norway also worked to expand the instruction of the Norwegian language in public schools. As of the 2000s, the magazine is named "Viking".

1938 merger
In December 1938, the Sons of Norway absorbed the American auxiliary of The Knights of the White Cross Order (Riddere av Det Hvite Kors), which had been founded in Chicago in 1863.

Daughters of Norway
Women were admitted to local groups as early as 1916, in areas where the female auxiliary was unorganized. Daughters of Norway lodges in the Midwest were merged with the Sons of Norway in 1950, and a system of junior lodges was created in 1956. The Grand Lodge of the Daughters of Norway, which dates to 1908, continues as a separate association.

Organization today

The organization slowly expanded across the United States and includes lodges in Canada and Norway. In the 2000s, Sons of Norway continued to make an effort to build on the traditions of the past while at the same time focusing on modern Norwegian–American lives.

Membership
Membership is open to everyone with an interest in Norwegian or Norwegian–American culture. Currently, the Sons of Norway has nearly 400 lodges in the United States, Canada and Norway. There were 90,000 members in 1995, and 64,186 members in 2010.

Insurance benefits
The benefits offered by the Sons of Norway have fluctuated over the years. They originally offered life, sickness, and accident insurance but in 1934, during the Great Depression, restricted coverage to life insurance only. Gradually other benefits were restored.

Statistics
As of December 31, 2013: In 2013, Sons of Norway lodges and members gave more than 500,000 hours of volunteerism and $1 million to their communities. The Sons of Norway also maintains a large library of Nordic works. It operates a retirement home called Norse Home, located in Seattle.

In 2017, the building and surrounding two-acre land was sold to developers, who will demolish it in order to develop the city block for a multi-use project. The organization will move back in as an anchor tenant once the new project is complete.
 * Sons of Norway Hall, Petersburg, Alaska, built 1912, listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP)
 * Sons of Norway building of Minot, North Dakota, built 1915, a contributing building in the NRHP-listed Minot Commercial Historic District

Category:National postgraduate representative bodies

Many countries have a national organisation representing postgraduate students/researchers undertaking their doctorate (PhD) or postdoctoral research. Some have a broader remit to represent all postgraduates, including those taking Master's degrees. A few have no specific body but are represented by a national body representing all students, including undergraduates.

In Europe many of the national organisations have come together under the federation Eurodoc.

Qiviut

Qiviuq [sg] or qiviut [pl] (Inuktitut syllabics: ᕿᕕᐅᖅ; Inuinnaqtun: qiviuq; Inupiaq: qiviu or qiviuq (sometimes spelled qiveut)) is the inner wool of the muskox. In Inuinnaqtun the same word can be used to refer any down such as the down feathers of birds.

The muskox has a two-layered coat, and qiviut refers specifically to the soft underwool beneath the longer outer wool. The muskox sheds this layer of wool each spring. Qiviut is plucked from the coat of the muskox during the moult or gathered from objects the animals have brushed against; unlike sheep, the animals are not sheared. Much of the commercially available qiviut comes from Canada, and is obtained from the pelts of muskoxen after hunts. In Alaska, qiviut is obtained from farmed animals or gathered from the wild during the molt.

Properties
Qiviut is stronger and warmer than sheep's wool, and softer than cashmere wool. Wild muskoxen have qiviut fibres approximately 18 μm in diameter. Females and young animals have slightly finer wool. Unlike sheep's wool, it does not shrink in water at any temperature, but this means that it also is not useful for felting.

It is most commonly used for hats and scarves, and is among the softest as well as warmest wools. It is very expensive; a high quality knitted scarf can cost more than $300 U.S., but will last over 20 years with good care.

Production and processing
An adult muskox can produce 4 to 7 lb of qiviut a year. Qiviut is produced by the muskox's secondary hair follicles, which are not associated with sebaceous glands, and therefore is a much drier fibre than wool, having only about 7 percent oils. The hair follicle density is very high (approximately 42 mm2) and qiviut is shed in a tightly synchronized spring moulting period. The qiviut will loosen from the animal's skin and pull away slightly, creating a "spectacled" look around the eyes and becoming visible all over the body at the surface of the pelt. At this stage of the moult, the undercoat is a short but relatively uniform distance from the skin. This lends itself to combing the qiviut from the animal in a single large sheet. If not combed, the qiviut will begin to fall out in clumps or be rubbed off by the animal, and may be plucked off the ground or bushes, but qiviut collected this way is of lower quality and requires more cleaning. At the Robert G. White Large Animal Research Station (LARS), a modified bison crush is used to gently but firmly hold the muskoxen in place, and the pelt combed out using a long-toothed comb or hair pick. After the fleece is removed, it is cleaned by hand, removing vegetation and other foreign matter, and then dehaired. Dehairing is the removal of intermediate hairs (greater than 30 μm in diameter). Dehairing is accomplished by carding as one would cashmere. Mechanical carding can cause breakage and weaken and roughen the qiviut. Because the pelt is combed rather than shaved, very few guard hairs come out with the qiviut using this method. Pelts from hunted animals are shaved, so the dehairing process in this case is more laborious. After dehairing, the qiviut may be cleaned again, if necessary.

The raw, cleaned qiviut is spun and then the yarn is washed. Natural qiviut is soft greyish brown in color, but it takes dye well and can be found for sale in myriad colors. Bleaching weakens the fibre, however, so many spinners and knitters recommend using only overdyed natural qiviut, which has darker, more subdued colours.

Muskoxen were hunted to extinction in Alaska by the end of the 1800s and reintroduced in 1935. Yarn production was first done soon after the reintroduction by an Alaskan home economics teacher who gathered the fibre and spun it herself.

Muskoxen were not domesticated until 1954. Domestication began with the Musk Ox Project, headed by John J. Teal, Jr with the first domestic muskox farm in Fairbanks, Alaska. The project continues at the muskox farm in Palmer, Alaska. The Oomingmak Musk Ox Producer's Cooperative was formed in the late 1960s by indigenous women on Nunivak Island, with the help of Dr. Teal and Mrs. L. Schell. It is a knitting cooperative that works with qiviut and is still in operation today. The cooperative has its headquarters in Anchorage, Alaska, and is owned by approximately 200 native Alaskans from many remote villages in Alaska. The name of the cooperative comes from the Inuit language word for muskox, umingmak, "the animal with skin like a beard."

As of 2016 there were about four thousand muskox in Alaska and raw qiviut fibre was sold at $35 per ounce, approximately twice the price of cashmere. A scarf knitted from qiviut cost $275 at the Oomingmak collective.

In reply: Part of the problem is that the template becomes too bulky. The template was originally bulkier than it is now, but after some talk in the Final Fantasy Project, it was decided that the template would be cropped. There were many things that were cut from it because of this. When i deleted what i added, i was going in accordance with the discussions on the discussion page of the project. If you still strongly believe that these titles should belong on the template, then post your argument here, where it can be discussed. -- ZeWrestler  Talk 17:08, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Joanna Kornas. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Joanna Kornas~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:43, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Beyond Final Fantasy

Merge?

 * Weak keep - if the page gets bigger, it will deserve its own page. — Cua HL   17:08, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Neutral - I got mixed feelings on this one right now. I'll have to see how this argument goes before i decide. -- ZeWrestler   Talk 17:11, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge. If the page does get bigger, it will deserve its own page. But whether or not it can get bigger is the more important question: at present we're dealing with what is essentially a single paragraph of summary, and that covers basically everything that this disc is in reasonable detail. Further expansion would very likely be pushing the notability envelope, and would likely come across as no more than fancruft. The whole thing should be rewritten as prose and merged into the Final Fantasy X article. I've offered a possible rewrite for such purposes in the comment section below. – Seancdaug 17:35, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge - Good point. Thats enough to sway me.-- ZeWrestler   Talk 17:47, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge - I think this is too closely related to Final Fantasy X to merit its own article. Unless there is a lot more information to be added about it, I think that the two should be merged. --Cswrye 01:03, July 26, 2005 (UTC)
 * Hm... maybe not? I don't know wheter I can be objective because I started editing this page... but I may try. I wouldn't merge Beyond FF with FFX because, although it is close to FFX, it also is a separate product. Release of FFX was the main reason to create this document but FF creators talk not only about FFX but also about other parts of FF series (and very often they compare them with FFX). The other question is, won't the merging with FFX make BFF harder to find? FFX wikipedia page is already quite long and I'm afraid that Beyond FF will drown in this ocean of information (maybe it would be enough just to add a link to BFF on FFX page). And another question: can Beyond FF page get bigger? Yes, it can. I think, I (or someone else) could write about what the creators ideas and comments were... of course, if you think, it does make sense. And... hm, I was going to add Beyond FF Cd's foto here but now I don't wheter it makes sense -_-. --Joanna Kornas 18:31, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * The thing is, it's not a seperate product: it's a bonus disc. Having a seperate article seems roughly akin to having a seperate article for the bonus discs that come with an almost uncountable number of DVDs. And the question isn't just "can it get bigger," but "should it get bigger." Obviously, we can pad out any number of articles, but at some point we need to decide what is relevant, useful information for an encyclopedia article. In any case, since the creators were commenting on Final Fantasy X, that information rightly belongs in the Final Fantasy X article to begin with, not here. – Seancdaug 02:27, July 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * One final note: I can't really see how merging the articles would make this harder to find. This article would, after all, become a redirect to the main Final Fantasy X article, so anyone looking for BFF-specific information would find his or her way to the right place. Ultimately, this is a disc containing information about Final Fantasy X, packaged as part of Final Fantasy X, and specifically relevant to Final Fantasy X. It's definitely useful information, I just can't see how it deserves its own article when, say, the special edition DVD releases of the Lord of the Rings film trilogy certainly don't. – Seancdaug 02:33, July 27, 2005 (UTC)

 * So what are we going to do now with this article?-- ZeWrestler  Talk 17:10, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, it looks like there was a majority in favor of merging (3 to 2), and it's been over a month since there were any substantial changes to the article, so I've gone ahead and merged it into the main Final Fantasy X article, using the rewrite below. Hope I didn't act too rashly here :-) – Seancdaug 08:07, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

Comments
Poss. rewrite for merge: "The European release of Final Fantasy X includes a bonus DVD entitled Beyond Final Fantasy. The disc includes interviews with the designers of the game, including executive producer Hironobu Sakaguchi, producer Yoshinori Kitase, sound producer Nobuo Uematsu, scenario writer Kazushige Nojima, designer Tetsuya Nomura, and programmer Takashi Katano, and with two English language voice actors, James Arnold Taylor (Tidus) and Hedy Burress (Yuna). Also included are two Final Fantasy X trailers, the Tokyo Game Shown and E3 previews for Kingdom Hearts, and the original theatrical trailer for Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. A gallery of Final Fantasy X artwork, including storyboards, image boards, and illustrations from Tetsuya Nomura and Yoshitaka Amano, and a music video of "Suteki Da Ne" as performed by Rikki round out the disc." – Seancdaug 17:35, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

Jonas Thern

Jonas Magnus Thern (born 20 March 1967) is a Swedish football manager who manages Allsvenskan club IFK Värnamo. He is also a former professional player who played as a midfielder. Starting off his career with Malmö FF in 1985, he went on to represent FC Zürich, Benfica, Napoli, Roma, and Rangers before retiring in 1999. A full international between 1987 and 1997, he won 75 caps for the Sweden national team and captained the Sweden side that finished third at the 1994 FIFA World Cup. He also represented his country at the 1988 Summer Olympics, 1990 FIFA World Cup, as well as UEFA Euro 1992. He was the recipient of the 1989 Guldbollen as Sweden's best footballer of the year.

Club career
Born in Falköping and raised in Värnamo, Thern started his professional career in 1985 when he joined Malmö FF, where he stayed for four years, winning two Allsvenskan titles in 1986 and 1988.

In 1989, Thern won the Guldbollen as Sweden's Footballer of the Year. That same year, he left for Benfica as part of a successful group of Scandinavian players that played there at the same time. It consisted of Danish international Michael Manniche (1983–1987), as well as the Swedish "armada" of Mats Magnusson (1987–1992), Thern (1989–1992), Glenn Strömberg (1982–84) and Stefan Schwarz (1990–94). Benfica were also coached by a Swede, Sven-Göran Eriksson (1982–1984 and 1989–1992).

Thern then played in Italy for Napoli and Roma. In 1997, he joined Rangers in Scotland, a move that lasted merely two years but nonetheless accompanied by silverware, a league title in 1999 – his final year in professional football – as frequent injuries forced him to retire early.

International career
For Sweden, he played in the 1990 FIFA World Cup and Euro 1992, and then won the bronze medal in the 1994 FIFA World Cup in the United States. Thern also competed for Sweden at the 1988 Summer Olympics. Thern was the Sweden captain for seven years, between 1990 and 1997.

Coaching career
After he retired as a player he became head coach for IFK Värnamo between 2000 and 2001 and Halmstads BK 2001–2003.

In 2021, he led IFK Värnamo to promotion to Allsvenskan for the first time ever in the club's history.

Personal life
Jonas has a son, Simon, who is also a footballer. His daughter, Alicia, is an equestrian.
