'The Fall of the FBI' With FBI Veteran Thomas Baker
"Talking to the author of the fall of the FBI how once great agency became a threat to democracy. Thomas baker, you were just telling us how what we now call Pfizer foreign intelligence surveillance act. Was abused obviously by those who were enemies of Donald Trump, very creepy, the way these kinds of things happen. Very smart people looking for loopholes and looking for ways to do things. They ought not to be able to do. So talk about that a little bit. What exactly happened? Remind us. Okay. Well, as I said before, the Pfizer act was initially a reform, and things operated rather well under it for a long time. What has happened, particularly after September 11th, it was loosened up and loosened up. At first, the Pfizer applications for monitoring each one had to be signed by the director of the FBI and then by the attorney general, Kim herself, and so this led to very carefully reviewing that and this one in the FBI went in effect when the judge William Webster was the FBI director. He had a team of law clerks, read every word in those. I mean, it had to be perfect. So I've got a lot of scrutiny. What's happened since then, this requirement has been loosened up and loosened up and loosened up so there's a whole wide range of officials who can approve these things. And from just two or 300 a year and by the way, these numbers do get disclosed publicly a year or so after the fact. So from just about 200 a year for a long time, have to September 11th to jumped up to a thousand a year, and now it's up in the past year or two to three and 4000 every year and we now know from the work of the DoJ inspector general that hundreds of these are being directed at U.S. citizens. Okay, so the point is to get permission for the FBI to spy to surveil American citizens. We have these fisa courts set up and what you're saying is that over time it became more and more abused until we now know that what happened with Trump before he even was elected or inaugurated that these kinds of things were being enacted, presumably at the behest of Obama and his people

Why is there a shortage of tomatoes and other fruit and vegetables in the UK? - BBC
"Chains have limited the amount of some fresh fruit and vegetables that customers can buy. Britain's largest grocery chain, Tesco is temporarily limiting customers to buying three items each of tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers. This woman tried to buy fruit. The fruit I wanted to put their goal, nothing that. The shortages are being blamed on bad weather in Spain and Morocco, nursery owner Jimmy Russo blames high gas prices and planters just not planting. Normally by now, we've already got English cucumbers in production, but there isn't many English cucumbers in production, if any at all at the moment. Liz Webster would save British food says empty shelves are a political issue. All farmers in Britain have been cutting

"Break for a word from our sponsors. I think what your work is trying to do is make a revisionist account of how we remember Webster or more importantly, don't remember him because as influential as he was during his lifetime, he ended his career at an ignominious point, supporting something that in New England was deeply unpopular and didn't live long enough to see the victory of the abolitionist movement. So with that in mind, how do you think Webster should be remembered? I think he should be remembered as a great hero as someone who was like all heroes, tragically flawed as someone who was forced to make a terrible compromise. There's very little doubt that if he had not endorsed his slave laws, there's no doubt that the rest of the northern delegation would not have supported the future save law and the law wouldn't have passed and the compromise would have collapsed. The south almost certainly would have succeeded. And the union would have failed, you know, one could say that maybe the country would be better off if we had divided. Maybe we would have less divisions in the country today if the south and the north were not a union. But we stuck together and because we stuck together, we accomplished great things. And we've all been made richer, I think, by our cultural differences. It's also true that if the south had gone its own way, that slavery probably would have lasted a lot longer in 1865 because the south was actually beginning to prosper from slavery. So I'm not sure that what he did in the end didn't help the country and I think he should be remembered as a heroic figure for having done something that took enormous courage because he believed in a higher truth and a higher good and a higher truth that he believed in was the constitution and the notion that the constitution ultimately made us all Americans and created a vehicle that the end of enslavement wrapping things up with the discussion that we began with, which was the idea of nationalism and how before the war of 1812, people identified by their state more than their national belonging and in the antebellum period there were competing ideas of nationalism, some supported it as race essentialism. Others thought that it had to do with occupation, Webster and others like Frederick Douglass thought that it was the beliefs of the constitution and the constitutional nationalism that defined the character of the nation. So with his idea in mind, how do you think that his ideas of what national belonging are are relevant to today? New very relevant today, the reason I started this whole project, I think it's so important to remind ourselves that we're all Americans that we benefit from our differences that we would not be as strong as we are today or as successful as rich a culture as we are today if it were not for our diversity. But also, I think it's equally important that we have a political figures who understand that the democratic process demands of us a willingness to find compromise to hold our truths lightly to be willing to see the other side and to create some consensus. I fear for the country because I don't see that kind of leadership in the present leadership and Congress. I don't see either side in Congress willing to really find common ground, but there is common ground. There is common ground and there is a possibility of finding common ground on issues like immigration and questions about how to address climate change. All of us are affected by these issues and the failure to find common ground and the idea that somehow the political parties will benefit by not finding common ground by not compromising by continuing to just simply vilify the other side, we have to back away from that idea and we have to find common ground. I hope in the coming election people will choose candidates who are more moderate, more willing to find common ground, see some good and the other side, and to recognize our common humanity, or we are doomed, I think, as a country. While it pays looking at incredibly important figures in history, especially those who for one reason or another aren't remembered as well as they should.

And seriously, the way he could just spit off pros like nothing made him seem like Homer reincarnated. Webster argued that the constitution wasn't a compact made by states, but an expression of the will of all Americans.

What Is Gaslighting?
"Now, I want to tell you what's going on here and I want to see if you agree with me or not because there's a word. That applies to all of this controversy. It's called gaslighting. In fact, do you know that Miriam Webster dictionary has named gaslighting as the 2022 word of the year? Gaslighting is happens all the time. And gaslighting, it's the backstory. It comes from the title of the 1938 play and a movie based on the play. The plot of which involves a man attempting to make his wife believe that she's going insane. His mysterious activities in the attic caused the house's gas lights to dim, but he insists to his wife that the lights are not dimming, and that she can not trust her own perceptions. In other words, they want you to feel like you're going crazy. So this is a great example of gaslighting. Do you recognize how consumed they are with Donald Trump?

Merriam Webster's Peter sokolski says searches for the word gaslighting in the dictionary company's website increased by 1740% over last year, usually a single event will drive up the numbers, but he says searches continued throughout the year for this one.

Merriam Webster Has Changed the Definition of the Word 'Women'
"Marion Webster dictionary. Married Webster is a reference point for tens of millions of children worldwide. It's a place where a lot of people go to look up the definition of words. Marian Webster is considered to be the gold standard. Marian Webster's online dictionary has now changed the definition of female. So for many of you that are exhausted, oh, let anyone do whatever they want to do, however they want to do it. Well, now your children, if they open up Marian Webster dictionary or your grandchildren, they're going to have a different definition of what is a woman. These people will not stop. They do not stop. Marion Webster has now changed the definition of what a female is. It now defines the term as quote having a gender identity that is opposite of a male. The key term here is gender identity, which demonstrates that Marion Webster maintains that gender is not directly connected to sex, a female is a woman, trans identifying males are not female. However, according to trans activists, men can become women. So they say, quote, of a rate of relating to or being the sex that is typically the capacity has the capacity to bear young or produce ages or produce eggs. In Marion Webster's tenth edition, the dictionary defines the noun female as quote of relating to or being the sex that bears young or produces eggs, but they change that to quote typically has the capacity.

You'll also get access to 15 years worth of archives, as well as The Daily Show prep, subscribe, at prager topia, dot com. Hi, everybody. Dennis prager with you. You won't be surprised when I inform you that the merriam Webster dictionary has changed the definition of female. We live in a world that Orwell predicted, but would even surprise Orwell. Merriam Webster online is from national review online dictionary has caved to the trans agenda. In order to appease woke activists, the dictionary publisher has added a secondary definition of female. That defines the term as having a gender identity that is the opposite of male. However, given that the current state of affairs is that there is no definition to either male, nor female, both are what one feels one is, therefore, it doesn't mean anything. You can't be the opposite of something that doesn't have an objective definition. How could female be the opposite of male if male is merely the opposite of female and neither has a definition? By the way, it's worth noting that the entire trans notion is in complete opposition to the non binary. Notion. If you are, if you are switching over to the other sex, you are acknowledging that the other sex exists, so it's very binary. In fact, there is no one more binary in their thinking than the trans. Otherwise, if there is no difference between male and female, why not simply stay what you are biologically. Nobody is as convinced of the massive difference between male and female as a trans person. They have changed their life on the basis of their belief, their certitude that there is something different between male and female. However, that is irrelevant because the entire foundation is emotional. And what I just said is rational. The key term here is gender identity which demonstrates that merriam Webster maintains the gender is not directly connected to sex. A female is a woman. Trans identifying males are not female. However, according to trans activists, men can be women. This is not the only part of the definition that has changed in the online edition of merriam Webster. Notice the primary definition of female. Of relating to or being the sex that typically has the capacity to bear young or produce eggs. In Mary and Webster's tenth edition, the dictionary defines the noun female as of relating to or being the sex that bears young or produces eggs. All right, that was the previous edition. Of relating to or being the sex that bears young or produces eggs. Now it is of relating to or being the sex that typically has the capacity. To bear young or produce eggs. The change in the online edition to include the phrase typically has the capacity, shows merriam Webster's attempt to include trans identifying males in the definition of female. While this phrase may refer to women who can not bear children due to infertility, given their nod to gender, given their nod to gender identity and defining the word female, it is most likely in other way to appease the trans community. It's really not the trans community that is the issue. It is the non trans community of leftists. Who are assaulting the foundations of objective truth, they already killed the foundations of objective morality..

AJ Looks at the Cluster of Presidential Deaths on July 4th
"The close cluster of July 4th, as really weird. Especially given the prehistoric prehistoric, the historic importance of that day. The first adult Thomas Jefferson was 83 years old at the time. And he was bedridden for a month with a bunch of different physical bullshit ailments. He called a fever on July 3rd, died the next day. At his home in Monticello, Virginia. Meanwhile, since hundred miles away and Quincy Massachusetts, 90 year old John Adams was also on his deathbed. And he died soon after that. Entirely unaware of Jefferson's passing. Adams oblivious last words were reportedly, Thomas Jefferson still survives, and it was the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. That's some crazy stuff. It really is. And president John Quincy Adams stuck struck by his father and Thomas Jefferson dying, not just on the same day, but on such an historic occasion, he called the timing visible and palpable remarks of divine favor. Those are such wonderful words put in a row. Visible and palpable remarks of divine favor. I'm not even sure how he came up with that. That's beautiful. There was a Saturday back then, Daniel Webster, and he agreed. He agreed remarking in a eulogy a month after Adams and Jefferson's death, he said they were proof that our country and its benefactors are objects of God's care. And then I know this is like a history lesson, but it's really important. It's July. It's July 4th, these deaths are saying. 5 years after Jefferson and Adams passed away, James Monroe dies of tuberculosis at 73 years old. At his daughter's house in New York

It is at least brilliant, at least, brilliant. And it was just wonderful to read Andrew, I want to say, congratulations on really having the guts to write this book because I can see how a lot of editors or publishers would try to steer you in different directions. And you, obviously, said to them, shut up. Here's the book. And I'm so glad I'm so glad you did. There's only one editor that I could think of. When I finished it and I put it, as you know, I put a lot of work into it, I thought gee, if this one editor turns this down, I simply don't know where else where else I'll go. So Webster Joanne sees now the publisher of zander van, but he was my editor on my memoir, and he took it instantly. I'm not surprised. He would be the one that I would suggest and God bless him for doing that. Because this is an important book, and I think that, as I said, the level of writing what you get into, what really delighted me, as I mentioned this earlier, how you bring to life figures that I didn't really think of biographically. I mean, somebody mentions coleridge, okay, I've heard of the rhyme of the ancient Mariner. You mentioned keats, you mentioned it. These are figures that I had not really come to appreciate as human beings, just as these names behind poems.

My brother did, but I did not. You have some members of your band with you today. How long have you been playing with these guys? Pistol and I am a pedal super we've been playing together for 7 years now. That's kind of how I started. I feel like I was playing music and then I added him to the band and then from there on for the rest of the time, it's just like, who wants to play with me? Let's be in our band. How'd you guys meet? I knew I wanted pedal steel because it's just what I grew up with stick to. And every time I said, hey, can you help me find a puddle so players like 30 people said the same person? There's nobody else. Like this is the player that you need. That's cool. What you have a hard time finding like a bass player, like a drummer, you know? But it's a high bar to find a pedal steel plant. Yeah. We're really gonna do this if I found someone. But it's like you just have to like wait and really find the people that just like have the chemistry and get you and I don't have to explain shit. Like you know what I mean? Just people that help me represent what I'm trying to get across. Do you always play in studio and live like with the same crew? We always record everything live. That's great. And then I go home and redo vocals. My kitchen. That's so funny. What is it about like a band that helps you write? I think it's more just like I have this song and I've written the song and it's like how can I make the best representation of me in this song? If other people are going to hear it, like I truly want it to be the best representation it could be. So what's the process that who would you go to first? But once you have it. I don't show anybody until we're in the studio. I don't even like share it with our engineer. Just 'cause I don't want people plotting on it. Be like, oh, this part. So good to play something right here. And I feel like that kind of just like ruined not ruins it, but I feel like in the moment is when it's more like, oh, I just played that and it sounded good. So let's just do that again. Right. And record it this time, please. So you want people coming up with their parts on the spot, not too. You can see, oh, I could do this. That's interesting. It doesn't happen a lot anymore. Yeah. Which is, I feel like from the other side of it, like if it wasn't my song and somebody made me come to the studio and record on demand, I would be freaked out. But yeah, it's nice to be the only one that knows. What's about to happen? Going from the self title to Atlanta millionaires club, what was the jump there? How did you go from those songs in that place to putting it out through awful and then go into Atlanta millionaire's club? I don't know. I feel like it was just like a natural evolution. And it's not even that different of a record. I feel like throughout my three main records, there's always a song from the latter record that could have been on the earlier one, but not the one too before it, otherwise it would have just been like this weird out of place song for two quick of evolution. I feel like, but I don't know. I feel like it was just like the right time and place. I met secretly Canadian, who I love, and they just feel like family to me at this point. And I just had more songs. And then I was like, I guess it's time to get out of the record. And I feel like that's kind of when I noticed that it wasn't just like family listening to my stuff. Right. Like I feel like that's when I kind of got put on the radar. It was truly the perfect time and perfect place in my life. You were saying how there's like always a song like that wouldn't fit like a couple of albums ago but probably within the last but I feel like and there's also I mean your arms are like super, very and there's always a song that feels like it's just a complete outlier. Just in general, you know? Like a land a millionaire club like flowers feels like a very you know and there's a couple even like Kingston sounds a little different than some of the others. Exactly. And it's like that could have been on my self title, but if it was on run and tell then it would have been like, what? Yeah. Like who just hopped on the sticks? And then like on this new one too, cheers. Even overslept sounds kind of different from the rest of the record. Yeah. Could have been on AMC. Like on those songs that are kind of outliers, do you look to make a song that's very different from the rest of the album? Or is it just happen? It really just happens because I mean, when I'm writing these songs at home by myself, they're all pretty fucking similar. They sound like they come out like it was your random son of a car at home. It's just me being quiet as fuck trying to write a song. And then it's like there's no way that my shitty cheers demo from my kitchen table sounds like what sheer sounds like. But it's just like when it was time to all sit together and say room and play it. It was like, oh, this is how it has to sound or this is going to be weird. Was it always as loud as it was? I don't remember. I should go find the demo, but I write songs on acoustic guitar at home. So it's not like I'm like rocking out. But then once you took it to the band though, was it like right away, did it? It really was. Really? Yeah. Damn. I feel like that song specifically. People were scrambling because I started playing it. It was just like, oh, it should definitely sound this way, but I don't own any cool shit. So I was just like, people were pulling pedals out of closets and stuff 'cause I was like, why my guitar is just like, I just plug straight into my amp all the time. But yeah, just like ended up like that. New tears during the pandemic. Oh, here it is. It's called used to be called cheers to each other. And I was like, that's a horrible name. This.

It was, I think it's just called I miss you. Okay. I don't know. It's like very early. It was like the melody into the song that she wrote with her dad on the airplane. I don't know that one. On the show. And miss dad, I don't really get these references, but I don't mind. How'd you record that? I feel like my brother's had like cool stuff. Especially since his older, both of them weren't like making movies for a little bit, so they had like the zoom recorder and cool shit connected to our PC. And I feel like maybe I did it there. I don't even know. So 5th grade, you started writing and recording. Yeah, which is crazy to think about because I don't remember writing songs in 5th grade, but I remember like performing at my 5th grade graduation. And one of your songs? The Miley Cyrus song. The mileage. But I sang the real one. Oh, the real one. Not your version. Yeah, yeah. Okay. You should have seen your version. I know. Did you play guitar? I was performed at? Did you play the guitar? I was playing guitar. Wow. That's fucking impressive for a 5th grader. But the first thing I ever learned was Lola. The kinks? Yeah. It's the first thing I ever learned. Don't know why. I guess 'cause my brother. Yeah. It's classic rock radio staple with the kinks are incredible. Yeah. So classic rock, punk rock, early on, like, Ramones, at least, is what you would that's just what you're hearing around the house? Yeah. Or that's what my dad would play and my brother. But then my mom would play like western swing music, which I think I gravitated towards more. Like Texas playboys and yeah, like a soup at the wheel was one of our favorite bands growing up. Wow. Allison Krause, Garth Brooks, shit like that. Allison Krause, that's a really, I don't know, that's pretty evolved taste, I feel like. You think so? I feel like it makes so much sense. And that's interesting you say that because I've said that to people before and they're like, really? Well, my mom is from Texas and grew up listening to soft country like that. I feel like they should just put me on before she put on all y'all. Man, so what was it about Allison Krause that drew you in? Definitely her voice. I was like, this is crazy. Like it truly sounds unreal. Like a CGI vocaloid. It's just like two perfect all the time. It's heavenly. But I also like that she played the violin. Yeah. I like tried to take violin lessons a bunch. And I just sucked. I was so bad at it. I was like, I can't do this. But it's also like, I mean, growing up, I would only hear male artists. So I feel like finally when my mom started playing me awesome cross, I was like, oh, like, girls can do this too. Yeah. That's fucking sick. She's very inspirational for me. And I gotta say, if you're only hearing male artists, especially if it's like the Ramones and Zeppelin, you know like your usual like her voice would really cut through the noise. Truly. I'm not super familiar with Atlanta. When I think of Atlanta, I think really great R&B really great hip hop. You know, I guess there's rock and roll bands around. I don't really know if I don't really think of it like that way. Was that like were you plugged into that stuff growing up was you hearing that? I mean, born in 97, yeah. Everything's hitting. I like Atlanta because it's just like, there's everything. It's like, what do you want? And then you can find that there. You can go see a garage rock band, and you can also go see sick ass rep in R&B artists and you can also go see it. Singers long riders at a weird open mic. I don't know. It's like, I really appreciate that about Elena. So once you got to high school, sort of finding your own music, what were we finding? I feel like I was that's when I was finding like folk music or folk rock music. I was listening to daz's record, nothing is wrong a lot in high school. That was one of my favorite records in high school. How did you end up recording your first record in high school? My friend had moved to Nashville, so I was just like going there a lot and it was just like, it was really my dad that was like you're playing these open mics all the time, and then you have nothing to give to people. I'm like, okay. Do they even want something? I didn't even know. But I had these songs and it was just like, I knew so many people in Nashville that made music. And how did you know people there? 'cause my friend moved there. That I met also in the open mic stuff. When she moved, I would just go visit her and sing with her and play music with her. It's recorded really well. It's just like in a house. I recorded both my first two records and just like bedrooms. You had an engineer, obviously on.

Caller Responds to Merriam-Webster's Definition of 'Anti-Vaxxer'
"Though, I've gone to the ICU for the three regular flu shot I've had in my life. I'm not getting that. I hear your thought. Here's the thing. When you said that by law, it's a law mandating it. Webster's own definition for a mandate is not a law. It is a command from a superior to an underling. They did not call it a law in their own dictionary. So how can you be against a law that's not a law? Yeah, it's not even we all know that Biden has taken the pen and the cell phone approach that Obama has to try to circumvent any kind of legislation. There's no legislating this. This is not a law.

Merriam-Webster's Definition of 'Anti-Vaxxer'
"Point do you know what the Miriam Webster dictionary definition of being an anti vaxxer is? I read this. And I looked it up, but it's true. This wasn't like an urban legend. This is actually true. And when you understand the left, when you realize they're distorted, bizarre worldview, a lot of stuff starts to make sense. Listen to this, the merriam Webster definition. Of an anti vaxxer. Is, quote, a person who opposes vaccination or laws that mandate vaccination. Look, think about that. The dictionary now calls an anti vaxxer any of us who oppose laws that mandate vaccinations. How the heck can I be an anti vaxxer when I'm vaccinated?

"I think so. Many of us myself included. We start meditating. We think we're going to have this amazing peaceful lovely experience and ends up being the polar opposite. And we're having a little battle inside ourselves the whole time and so finding some pathway in to that quiet space for yourself you know. I think the gift is. It gives us muscle memory right leg. You you know that quiet space by we ha- we know how to access it whether it's through drawing whether it's through running god forbid or seeded. Whatever it is that you find that space through we start to build the muscle memory and then we can apply in other areas of our lives. Yeah i think you snapped into that that mode or whatever it is after having done it so many times if of course it takes practice. So that's why you know people describe innovation as a practice. And i literally is that the practice and the repetition leads to that facility and that that the speed at which you can access that that state of mind. My brother is a runner. He was a competitive runner division. One college still runs and and he does absolutely find that that peace of mind if you like her gets into that space when he runs and i think he was aware of that from the beginning and that is why he for years and years has been between the two of us.

Although it ended up being entirely about meditation so As a very often do i get emails. These days from people that are suggesting guests to be on the show and ninety nine percent of the time i say. No thank you because primarily. The show is a meditation class. It's not an interview format. Show however there are definitely guests that i'm excited to have conversations with and share with you guys and angles of meditation that i really enjoy exploring specifically around creativity so i get this email. This was a couple months ago from a complete stranger. And it's suggesting kyle t webster as an interview subject. He had recently created a new interactive notebook. That explores tracing as a meditation practice and it was suggested in the email that we talk about meditation. My favorite subject creativity my second favorite subject and it's a company that produces stunning beautiful notebooks. Which i'm clearly obsessed with so this was a yes. Yes yes triple check for me. I instantly wrote back and said yeah. I'm interested you got me. Let's talk and i'm so happy to tell you all that. The conversation truly is even better than i could have imagined it would be kyle. And i explore what it means to meditate versus be in a meditative. Practice the difficulties with meditation.

So according to merriam webster it means a hatred of or version two or a prejudice against women. Pretty simple And just to go but further this is similar to sexism. But is very specific towards discriminatory attitude toward women and the greek roots missizng which means to hate in gene which means woman woman and and the the other other side side of of that that would would be be masonry masonry which which is is hatred hatred of of men men so so there there you you go go wedding wedding okay. okay.

The quality state are degree of being masculine. Or manley again this is from. Miriam webster and though masculinity itself is not a bad thing at all and as we've been talking about this as a description in any gender when it comes to the more harmful ideals behind the importance of masculinity there are subset terms that are important to know like toxic masculinity which is something we talk about on the show too especially when we talk about. The dangers of these pressures man may feel to be overtly aggressively showing their manliness. According to very well mind dot com. There are many different definitions of toxic masculinity but a few researchers have agreed. There are three core components toughness or the idea that a man should be physically strong and without emotion or callous. And perhaps even act aggressive or macho power meaning that men should obtain power or seek to have power over others order gain respect and that they should reject any and everything that can be deemed feminine like show emotions or empathy and there is hegemonic masculinity. And here we're talking about the deeper idea that men should be the more dominant of sexes in society originally coined by our w connel's but there he is that it is quote a prevailing construct of masculinity as a social class that dominates women and according to one research paper covering hegemonic masculinity in gun legislation.

Makes it sound good. But i don't think everybody knows the true meaning of it. I mean it's just too easy to say. We're sustainable absolute. I'm we've got this big kind of sentence in our office ended which is like we. We do what we say. We say what we would just have to be honest as possible and guide the extra mile and yes take a lot more time and who probably will be more expensive. But you've got to for great ticket of all.

I would tend to like them on the simple side and then there's a lot that you can do with and presentation. So things like loads of hubs or like beautiful flaked almonds You know edible flowers if a going ready fancy and then even even just the way you present things so if you are doing a pasta dish which cannot be quite other. Simple combine quite problematic. If you're feeding maybe like ten. P. t. s. you'll planting templates. Maybe rather than placing up on the hulk.

But i did not things. have matching cutlery. Have glosses and all this stuff and actually that. I don't think any of that stuff matters. But i think it was not little things that you can do just to make it feel a bit more special so i often by like loads of lemons or you can even buy in like a bag of apples and not put them in a big bowl or even have them running down the table.
