Heading into the final week of
the 2012 South Dakota Legisla-
ture, leaders of both parties still
are at odds over the bill that seeks
to reward the states best teachers
and attract more in certain areas
of study.
The plan, which started as Gov.
Dennis Daugaards plan, but has
suffered at last count 23 amend-
ments to make it more palatable to
educators and the public, is em-
bodied in HB1234.
Republican House and Senate
leaders said Friday at their weekly
news conference that the educa-
tion plan has gained the most
media attention of any of the bills.
But now, said Sen. Russ Olson, R-
Madison, I think we have the peo-
ples plan.
With the current version, Olson
said, we are allowing local school
districts to have continuing con-
tracts, and have expanded the
local control option for school
boards that want to give more
money for such things as a teacher
First Interstate Bank is honored
to be one of only 10 banks recog-
nized by the American Bankers
Association (ABA) with a 2012
Community Bank Award. First In-
terstate was specifically honored
for its outstanding leadership per-
taining to encouraging volun-
teerism within its company and
its communities.
First Interstate BancSystem,
Inc. Vice Chairman Jim Scott ac-
cepted the award on behalf of the
Bank at the ABAs National Con-
ference for Community Bankers in
Palm Desert, California, on Febru-
ary 21. First Interstate was chosen
by an ABA selection committee
from a field of nearly 200 nomina-
tions. Winners were based on the
innovation, creativity, and effec-
tiveness of the bank's approach to
making a difference in its commu-
nity.
First Interstate Bank takes a
methodical, thorough, and unique
approach to encouraging volun-
teerism and helping local nonprof-
its continue to serve the commu-
nity, said Laura Fisher, Executive
Director of the ABA Education
Foundation. Their program
matches charities in need with vol-
unteers based on their professional
skills, experience, and leadership
capabilities to address specific
needs of the community. This ap-
proach helps nonprofits build and
sustain their capacity to bring real
solutions to the most pressing so-
cial problems.
First Interstate employees con-
tributed more than 11,000 hours of
volunteer service in their commu-
nities last year. Our founder,
Homer Scott, Sr., always said, If
youre part of a place, take care of
it, noted Lyle R. Knight, Presi-

dent and CEO of First Interstate
Bank. Thats why we consider this
award such a great honor. Its a
testament to the dedication of our
entire organization and the ways
we come together to take care of
our communities.
First Interstate Bank is a com-
munity banking organization, op-
erating 71 offices throughout Mon-
tana, Wyoming, and South
Dakota. A family business whose
culture is driven by strong corpo-
rate values, First Interstate is
committed to exemplary customer
service, exceeding customer expec-
tations through its products and
services, and supporting the com-
munities it serves.
The ABA Community Bank
Awards program was established
in 2005 to commend community
banks' exceptional charitable
achievements. The ABA repre-
sents banks of all sizes and char-
ters and is the voice for the na-
tion's $13 trillion banking industry
and its two million employees.
Legislative leaders predictably
still at odds over education bill
who acts as a mentor. Olson said
as long as it is advancing student
achievement, we want to reward
teachers.
The bill was approved in the
Senate Education committee last
week and was adopted by the full
Senate late Monday afternoon on
a vote of 22-12, reflecting more op-
position than just the five Democ-
rats in that body.
However, Democratic Senate
leader Jason Frerichs, D-Wilmot,
said what happened in the Educa-
tion Committee was something to
witness first hand, which he did.
He said the bureaucrats were tes-
tifying for the bill, continuing to
push that top-down approach,
while the foot soldiers, administra-
tors, school board members, teach-
ers and parents were saying hold
on, lets do it right.
Frerichs said it looks like the Gov-
ernor means well, but he is really
pushing this forward at any cost.
House Democratic Leader Bernie
Hunhoff, Yankton, said the plans
$15 million cost has inaccurately
been called the biggest invest-
ment in history for education.
However, he said, that amount is
just one-fifth of what was cut last
year from school funding.
Numerous Republican legisla-
tors also have voiced their dis-
pleasure with the bill, even with
its amendments and are asking
that money be put back into the
states school funding formula to
benefit local school districts and
the taxpayers who support them.
As legislators head into their
final full week of action, the bill is
expected to wind up in a confer-
ence committee where both the
House and Senate can hammer out
a compromise bill that would be
presented to each of the two cham-
bers for their consideration.
At weeks end it is also expected
that the general appropriations
bill will be finalized for fiscal year
2013.
Legislators then give Gov. Den-
nis Daugaard two weeks to con-
sider bills for his signature or dis-
approval, and come back for its
final legislative day on Monday,
March 19. The Legislature also can
deal with any vetoes the Governor
may have issued.
A new National Park Service
(NPS) report shows that 42,348 vis-
itors in 2010 spent $2.8 million in
your national park and in commu-
nities near the park. That spending
supported 46 jobs in the local area.
The people and the business
owners in communities near na-
tional parks have always known
their economic value, park super-
intendent Ruben Andrade said.
Minuteman Missile National
Historic Site is clean, green fuel for
the engine that drives our local
economy.
Most of the spending/jobs are re-
lated to lodging, food, and beverage
service (52 percent) followed by
other retail (29 percent), entertain-
ment/amusements (10 percent), gas
Minuteman Missile NHP = visitors,
money and jobs for local economy
and local transportation (7percent)
and groceries (2 percent).
The figures are based on $12 bil-
lion of direct spending by 281 mil-
lion visitors in 394 national parks
and nearby communities and are
included in an annual, peer-re-
viewed, visitor spending analysis
conducted by Dr. Daniel Stynes of
Michigan State University for the
National Park Service.
Across the U.S, local visitor
spending added a total of $31 bil-
lion to the national economy and
supported more than 258,000 jobs,
an increase of $689 million and
11,500 jobs over 2009.

The House and Senate of the
South Dakota Legislature joined
together recently in asking the fed-
eral government to consider keep-
ing the Veterans Administration
facility in Hot Springs open.
The resolution finalized Feb. 28
was in response to the proposal by
the United States Department of
Veterans Affairs to close the VA
Hospital, and revamp the VA Black
Hills Health Care System.
The proposed changes would re-

tient hospital and nursing home
services, said the resolution, with
services to be moved to Rapid City
and Fort Meade in Sturgis or
served on a contractual basis by
other private facilities in the area,
leaving Hot Springs with only a
VA outpatient clinic.
The closure is expected to have
an adverse impact on the commu-
nity of Hot Springs and the sur-
rounding area.
It is estimated, according to the
resolution, that the current 1,062
employees will be reduced to 325
over the next eight years, nega-
tively impacting the citys employ-
ment and housing market, as well
as its overall economy.
Sen. Jim Bradford, D-Pine
Ridge, noted during the Senate
consideration Feb. 28 that the
medical care from the VA at Hot
Springs is especially important to
Native American veterans, as well
as to the economy of Hot Springs.

A new National Park Service (NPS)
report shows the 977,778 visitors
who visited and enjoyed Badlands
National Park in 2010 spent $23
million in the park and surround-
ing communities. This spending
supported more than 375 area jobs.
The people and the business
owners in communities near na-
tional parks have always known
their economic value, said park su-
perintendent Eric Brunnemann.
Badlands National Park is clean,
green fuel for the engine that
drives our local economy.
Special events such as the parks
yearly Heritage Celebration in July

however are the two tough fibrous
ribbon ligaments, which cross each
other, front to back, on the inside
of the knee forming an "X. This
explains why they are called the
cruciate or cross-like ligaments.
The anterior cruciate ligament
or ACL starts at the back of the
thighbone or femur above, crosses
to connect at the front of the shin-
bone or tibia below, and keeps the
lower leg from sliding forward.
The posterior cruciate ligament
or PCL starts at the front of the
thighbone, crosses to the back of
the shinbone, and keeps the lower
leg from sliding backward.
What is so ingenious is how
these crossing ribbons provide for
such stability, and yet at the same
time, allow for the bending of the
knee. So it is as Gerard Manley
Hopkins the Priest poet said: The
world is charged with the
grandeur of God.
Dr. Rick Holm wrote this edito-
rial for On Call, a weekly pro-
gram where medical professionals
discuss health concerns for the
general public. On Call is pro-
duced by the Healing Words Foun-
dation in association with the
South Dakota State University
Journalism Department. On
Call airs Thursdays on South
Dakota Public Broadcasting-Tele-
vision at 7 p.m. Central, 6 p.m.

By Richard P. Holm MD
In 1974 in Ethiopias Awash
Valley, a 3.2 million year-old
skeleton of an ape was discovered
that was different than other ape
skeletons. The knee bone
shape, along with pelvic architec-
ture, indicated that this ape
walked upright. As the Beatles
music Lucy in the Sky with Dia-
monds was playing in the back-
ground, archeologists speculated
that this could be the long sought
link between apes and humans,
and the upright walking individ-
ual was famously nicknamed
Lucy. Her brain was small and
ape-like but she walked upright.
This was evidence that the up-
right position might have come
first. They speculated that stand-
ing tall allowed for the evolution-
ary advantage of having a better
view of approaching enemy or
mate and all the rest followed.
Could it be that the special de-
sign of an upright knee allowed for
the first big step toward the evolu-
tion of humanity? And what is so
special about this design?
The knee is a hinge joint mostly
held together with four ligaments.
The two collateral ligaments run
along the inner and outer sides of
the knee keeping our legs from
bending inward (knock-kneed) or
outward (bowlegged).

Excavation work of
My senior project
Catholic Youth Ministry. Kyle Harris volunteered at
Blessed Sacrament Parish in Rapid City for his senior project.
Harris gave a 10 minute testimony to juniors and seniors in
Rapid City. Harris said this was great for public speaking. He
plans to attend St. Mary's University in IHM seminary. Harris said
he possibly may become a priest. ~Photo Laurie Hindman
Learning the Guitar. Alexis Billings someday wanted to
learn another instrument and thought her senior project was a
good place to start. Jonathan Arnio was her instructor and she
learned to play Free Falling by Tom Petty. Billings plans on be-
coming a nutritionist and will attend SDSU after she completes
her generals at Black Hills State. ~Photo Laurie Hindman
Volunteen at RCRH. Krysta Kjerstad volunteered at Rapid City
Regional Hospital thru their Volunteen program. Kjerstad made
beds, stocked, transferred patients and helped the CNAs with
patients. She was glad that she chose something to help decide
her future. Kjerstad plans to become a doctor specializing in Pe-
diatrics. She will be attending UNL in Lincoln, Neb.

Carnival for Cancer. Cheyenne Deering sponsored a carnival
which brought in $896.75 for Hope Lodge and $976.75 for Terri
Harris. Deering plans to attend either Chadron or SDSU for col-
lege to major in Business Marketing or English.

I think I wanna marry you. Heidi Huether thought it would
be fun to plan weddings. She enlisted the help of Randi Moore
and Moores boyfriend to become models for her project.
Huether plans to attend USD and isnt quite sure what she will
major in. ~Photo Laurie Hindman
Bringn back the Legend. Gui Bauer spent 45 hours re-
building one of the first actual heavy duty go-carts. He rebuilt

also repainted the Legend. Bauer hasnt made any plans for col-
lege yet. ~Photo Laurie Hindman

We Americans have, for
over two hundred years, cel-
ebrated our liberty as an in-
dependent nation on the
Fourth of July.
t does not follow from
this however, that all Ameri-
cans are now free. Far from
it! Think of the millions of al-
coholics and drug addicts,
bound with chains they only
wish they could break. Think
of the slaves to immoral
passions, to violent tempers,
to malicious backbiting, not
to mention smoking and
other habits they cannot
control. No, the vast major-
ity of Americans are slaves
to--well, sum it all up in one
word: sin.
f God is a righteous
Judge -- and He is -- He
must of course, punish sin.
Romans 6:23 says: "the
wages of sin is death", but
on the other hand, thank
God, Corinthians 15:3
says: "Christ died for our
sins".
The Lord Jesus Christ
was no sinner; He had com-
mitted no crimes; there was
no wrong He had to pay for;
He had no death to die. t
was our death He died at
Calvary, and we are saved
from the penalty as we look
at Calvary and say: "This is
not His death He is dying; it
is mine. He is paying for my
sin. will accept this gift of
God and trust Him as my
Saviour".
This is a wonderful truth:
Death, the penalty of the
Law, was inflicted on us -- in
Christ. Therefore the Law
(i.e., the Ten Command-
ments) has no further claim
on us. f it did, we would be
condemned all over again.
This is why Paul says in
Galatians 2:19: " through
the Law am dead to the
Law". The Law may put a
man to death, but after that
what can it do? Nothing. The
Law has put him to death (in
Christ) and set him free from
its own dominion.
Unsaved friend, God
wants you to be free, really
free. He Himself, paid sin's
penalty for you and wants
you to rejoice in what Paul
calls, "the glorious liberty of
the children of God" (Rom.
8:21), freedom from the con-
demnation of the Law!
Place your trust in the
Christ who died your death
and you will find how glori-
ously true it is that "f the
Son therefore shall make
you free, ye shall be free in-
deed" (John 8:36).

By Coach Delger
The Eagles did not consider it an
upset as they won their District
Championship in Oelrichs, Satur-
day, March 3. It was rather, a game
where they played up to their po-
tential for the majority of the game.
Oelrichs, although short-handed
for the tournament, showed a lot of
talent, quickness, and size and why
they had such a successful season.
Wall, on the other hand, has
played a lot of close, tough games
this season and this seemed to
have given them an advantage.
The Eagles played tenacious de-
fense the entire game and its ef-
fects really wore on the Tigers.
The Tigers style of play worked
for them in the first half, where
they led by 11 at halftime, how-
ever, they could not maintain in
the second half. The Eagles never
quit and slowly regained position
as the game progressed.
Senior Chavis Shull, of the Ea-
gles, had an uncharacteristic off-
night, but made some huge free-
throws for Wall going six-six from
the line, and grabbed five offensive
Eagles are district champs
rebounds.
Showing great poise under pres-
sure for the Eagles were senior
Kale Lytle and junior Lane Hus-
tead.
Lytle had his biggest night of the
year going eight-16 with 20 points
and six rebounds.
Hustead was five for 11 (three
for three from the three-point line)
with 13 points, six rebounds, nine
steals, and four assists. Husteads
third three was essentially the
game winner putting the Eagles
up by two on their final possession
with the Tigers unable to answer
with their final shot.
Tyler Trask was two-three from
the three-point line for the Eagles.
Oelrichs had three players in
double figures: Sage Brings Plenty
led with 16, followed by Zach Cox
and Erig Swiftwater with 13
points each. Brings Plenty also led
with 11 rebounds, while Swiftwa-
ter had 10, and Cox grabbed eight
(seven offensive).
The Eagles beat the Tigers in
Oelrichs for the second year in a
row to bring home the District
Championship, with a final score
of 56-54.

After obtaining a bye in the first
round of District play with a second
seed, the Eagles hosted the New
Underwood Tigers in second round
action on Thursday, March 1.
It was a low-scoring defensive
battle, and with a little over a
minute left in the first half and an
11-10 lead for the Eagles, Wall
stalled for the last shot. It paid off
hugely when Lane Hustead hit a
deep three before the buzzer to give
the Eagles a four-point lead and
some welcome momentum and con-
fidence going into the second half.
The Tigers still battled hard in
the third quarter, but Wall
outscored New Underwood by 10 in
the fourth to seal the victory and
advanced to play Oelrichs in the
District Championship.

Also having a good night was
Kale Lytle who scored 13 points
and had five assists, and Tyler Pe-
Hustead led the Eagles going five

and Kale Lytle scored five points,
had five rebounds and three steals.
Tyler Trask was two-four from
three-point range.
For New Underwood, Tanner
Brindley had an 11-point night

incorporates herein by this ref-
erence, the Administrative
Rules of South Dakota, Chap-
ter 74:53:01, as minimum stan-
dards relating to public health
and environmental quality and
said Administrative Rules shall
supersede all local minimum
standards previously enacted
that are inconsistent with Sec-
tion 204-J.
c. Authority:
This section of the Zoning
Ordinance is enacted pursuant
to the authority granted in Title
7 of the South Dakota Codified
Laws and Chapter 74:53:01 of
the Administrative Rules of
South Dakota for the protection
of public health and the safety

and laundry wastes) and shall
have a connection to a public
sewer except when such sewer
is not available or practicable
for use, in which case connec-
tion shall be made to an on-site
wastewater treatment system
found to be adequate and con-
structed, installed and main-
tained in accordance with the
requirements of Section 204-J.
Repair of A Failing System
Whenever an on-site waste-
water treatment system is
found by Pennington County to
be malfunctioning or failing, or
to cause a nuisance, the owner
shall take the necessary action
to cause the condition to be
corrected or eliminated or oth-
erwise to come into compli-
ance. Corrective action shall
be completed by the owner of
a malfunctioning or failing sys-
tem in accordance with Section
204-J-5-a.
c. General Requirements.
Units Required in An On-Site
Wastewater Treatment System
The on-site wastewater treat-
ment system shall consist of
the following components:
i. A building sewer.
ii. A septic tank.
iii. An absorption system.
This may be a standard trench,
a chambered trench, an ab-
sorption bed, or alternative or
experimental systems as spec-
ified in Section 204-J, depend-
ing on location, topography,
soil conditions and groundwa-
ter table.
iv A holding tank, if a con-
ventional, alternative, or exper-
imental system cannot be
used.
Multiple Family Dwelling
Units multiple single-family
dwelling units under individual
ownership shall not be served
by a single on-site wastewater
treatment system except
where that system is under the
sponsorship of a management
district or a body politic or in ex-
tenuating circumstances, when
individual systems are not fea-
sible. Plans and specifications
for such systems shall be sub-
mitted to and approved by
DENR prior to submission to
Pennington County.
d. Design Requirements.
Site Location and nstallation.
i. On-site wastewater
treatment systems are not suit-
able for all areas and situa-
tions. Location and installation
of each system, or other ap-
proved means of treatment,
shall be such that with reason-
able maintenance, it will func-
tion in a sanitary manner and
will not create a nuisance, pub-
lic health hazard, or endanger
the quality of any waters of the
state. Systems shall be lo-
cated on the same lot as the
building served whenever pos-
sible.
ii. n determining a suit-
able location for the system,
due consideration shall be
given to such factors as: size
and shape of the lot; slope of
natural and finished grade; lo-
cation of existing and future
water supplies; depth to
groundwater and bedrock; soil
characteristics and depth; po-
tential flooding or stormwater
catchments; possible expan-
sion of the system, and future
connection to a public sewer
system.
iii. The depth of a well is
determined by the static water
level in the well for setback re-
quirements.
Replacement Area For Ab-
sorption System Properties
with severe soils (as defined by
the United States Department
of Agriculture Soil Survey), less
than 3 acres in size, located
over an aquifer recharge area,
contain 100-year floodplain or
any other constraint that would
restrict the location and instal-
lation of an on-site wastewater
treatment system will require a
replacement area for the ab-
sorption system. This may re-
quire additional soil profile and
percolation information at the
location of the replacement
area as determined by the En-
vironmental Planner. This area
must be designated on the site
plan and kept free of perma-
nent structures, traffic, or ad-
verse soil modification.
Tracer Wire Required n
order to assist in the location of
on-site wastewater treatment
system components located
below ground, all new or re-
placement absorption systems
shall have tracer wire installed.
All tracer wire shall be No. 12
solid single strand type TW or
THHN, or equivalent. The
tracer wire shall be accessible
at the tank cleanout and shall
extend along the building
sewer from the house to the
tank, around the septic tank ac-
cess hole, and from the tank
through all system trenches or
around the perimeter of any
bed, mound or evapotranspira-
tion system. To prevent corro-
sion, all buried ends of the
tracer wire and all wire splices
shall be sealed with an ap-
proved direct bury splice kit or
gel-type connector. All tracer
wire installation shall be in-
spected during the final inspec-
tion by Pennington County and
prior to back filling. The in-
staller is responsible for ensur-
ing that the tracer wire has con-
ductivity.

through DENR prior to submis-
sion of an On-site Wastewater
Treatment System Construc-
tion Permit Application to Pen-
nington County.
g. Exceptions.
Requirements For An Ex-
ception To This Ordinance
The purpose of an exception is
to modify specific requirements
of this Ordinance in the case of
exceptionally irregular condi-
tions whereby such application
would result in practical diffi-
culty or unnecessary hardship
which would deprive an owner
of the reasonable use of their
property. Justification for the
need of the exception must be
provided and is such that they
will not cause a violation of any
existing water quality standard,
cause a health hazard, or cre-
ate a nuisance.
Application Requirements
For Exceptions:
i. nformation demon-
strating that connection to a
public or community-based
sewerage system is not avail-
able, there is no other option
for sewage treatment, and site
conditions prevent construction
or use of an on-site wastewater
treatment system that is in
compliance with Section 204-J.
ii. A detailed description
of the proposed system, includ-
ing engineering and/or reliabil-
ity information, if necessary,
and information about its pro-
posed location and proposed
replacement area.
iii. An operation,
maintenance and troubleshoot-
ing plan to keep the installed
system operating as described
in the application.
iv. A contingency
plan describing how a system
that cannot meet the require-
ments of Section 204-J will be
replaced.
v. Approval letter from
DENR, if necessary.
vi. Final approval from
Pennington County.
h. Soil and Groundwater Re-
quirements
General Requirements A
suitable soil for absorption sys-
tems shall meet the following
criteria:
i. Have the capacity to
adequately disperse the de-
signed effluent loading as de-
termined by field percolation
rates and/or visual inspection
of soil exploration, and;
ii. Does not exhibit inhibit-
ing swelling or collapsing char-
acteristics, and;
iii. Does not visu-
ally exhibit a jointed or frac-
tured pattern of underlying
bedrock, and;
iv. Meets the require-
ments of ARSD 74:53:01:15.
Groundwater Requirements:
i. The seasonal high
groundwater table shall be de-
termined by direct visual obser-
vation of the maximum ground-
water table in a soil exploration
pit. The observation of soil in a
soil exploration pit may show
evidence of crystals of salt left
by the seasonal high ground-
water table, or chemically re-
duced iron in the soil, reflected
by a mottled coloring if water is
not visible in the soil explo-
ration pit.
ii. A curtain drain or other
effective groundwater intercep-
tor may be required to be in-
stalled for an absorption sys-
tem as a condition for its ap-
proval. Pennington County
may require that the effective-
ness of such devices in lower-
ing the groundwater table be
demonstrated, for a period of at
least one year, during the sea-
son of maximum groundwater
table elevation.
Soil Exploration Require-
ments:
i. Pennington County will
perform a preliminary evalua-
tion of the site. A Preliminary
Evaluation form is required for
each new soil exploration pit.
The form will include:
aa. The soil explo-
ration log, including a state-
ment of soil explorations to a
depth of eight feet or to a depth
of at least four feet below the
bottom of the proposed ab-
sorption system;
bb. A statement of
the present and anticipated
seasonal high groundwater
table, and,
cc. A field/site
evaluation.
ii. Suitable soil explo-
ration pits, of sufficient size to
permit visual inspection by
Pennington County (at least a
two foot by five foot hole), and
to a minimum depth of eight
feet, or at least 48 inches
below the bottom of proposed
on-site wastewater treatment
systems, shall be dug near
each absorption system site to
determine the groundwater
table and subsurface soil and
bedrock conditions. A log of
the soil and bedrock formations
encountered must be recorded
describing the texture, struc-
ture, and depth of each soil
type, the depth of the ground-
water table encountered, and
indications of the seasonal
high elevation of the ground-
water table. Soil logs should
be prepared in accordance
with the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture Soil Classi-
fication System.
iii. The preliminary evalu-
ation is valid for two years from
the evaluation date.
iv. Pennington County
may impose stricter require-
ments as to the depth of ab-

v. The Pennington
County Planning Department
may require that soil evalua-
tions be performed by a li-
censed or certified soil scientist
or a representative from
DENR.
Percolation Test Require-
ments:

sign flow is more than 2,000
gallons per day but less than
5,000 gallons per day, shall be
performed on the site of each
absorption system to deter-
mine minimum required ab-
sorption area. More tests may
be required where soil struc-
ture varies, where limiting geo-
logic conditions are encoun-
tered, or where the proposed
property improvements will re-
quire large treatment systems.
i. When percolation tests
are made, such tests shall be
made at points and elevations
selected as typical of the area
in which the absorption system
will be located. Consideration
should be given to the finished
grades of building sites so that
test results will represent the
percolation rate of the soil in
which absorption systems will
be constructed. After the suit-
ability of any area to be used
for on-site wastewater treat-
ment systems has been evalu-
ated and approved for con-
struction, no grade changes
shall be made to this area un-
less Pennington County is no-
tified and a reevaluation of the
area's suitability is made prior
to the initiation of construction.
ii. Test results shall be
submitted on the On-site
Wastewater Treatment System
Construction Permit Applica-
tion. The permit application
shall contain the following:
aa. The name and
signature of the individual con-
ducting the tests;
