On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John watch U.S. Marshals, the extremely lackluster sequel to The Fugitive which dispenses with a straightforward cat and mouse story in favor of a byzantine conspiracy involving government moles, foreign espionage and the Taiwanese government. Directed by Stuart Baird, U.S. Marshals stars Tommy Lee Jones, Wesley Snipes, Robert Downey Jr., Joe Pantoliano, Kate Nelligan and Irène Jacob. The tagline for U.S. Marshalls was "The cop who won't stop is back. But this time he's chasing down a lot more than a fugitive."You can find the film to rent or buy on Amazon and Apple TV.Episodes of the podcast are released roughly every other week, so join us again later this month for a look at Mercury Rising, Harold Becker's conspiracy thriller starring Bruce Willis, Alec Baldwin, Miko Hughes, Chi McBride and Kim Dickens.

Nach 15 Jahren und zwei Filmen mit Robert Downey Jr. widmet sich Guy Ritchie mit "Young Sherlock" (3:42) wieder Sir Arthur Conan Doyles beliebtem Detektiv. Holger, Michael, Roland und Rüdiger haben Deerstalker und Pfeife hervorgekramt und sich alle acht Folgen der Amazon-Prime-Serie angeschaut. Dabei haben sie Indizien und Beweise gefunden, die sie allerdings zu völlig unterschiedlichen Schlussfolgerungen führen. Können sie den Fall knacken, ob die Serie sich lohnt oder nicht? Im Anschluss sprechen Michael und Rüdiger über die neue HBO-Max-Serie "DTF St. Louis" (39:18), die mit Jason Bateman, David Harbour, Linda Cardellini und Richard Jenkins brillant besetzt ist. Der Ton der schwarzen Komödie ist sicher nicht für jeden Geschmack, aber der Siebenteiler macht einige kluge Beobachtungen zu Beziehungen und Sex und hat einige Überraschungen zu bieten. Überraschung stellte sich bei uns auch ein als plötzlich die zuvor bei Arte gelaufene australische Serie "Die Newsreader" (1:00:16) bei Netflix auftauchte - und dabei die dritte und letzte Staffel als Erstausstrahlung präsentierte. Da die Serie 2023 für uns ein Geheimtipp war, haben wir uns die finalen sechs Folgen angeschaut, die Weltereignisse wie das Exxon Valdez Desaster, das Tiananmen Square Massaker oder den Fall der Berliner Mauer nacherzählt, aber vor allem wegen der Ereignisse hinter der Kamera interessant ist. Zurück in die 80er heißt es auch bei "The Pitt"(1:17:11) nachdem die Computer heruntergefahren wurden. Können die analogen Folgen 8 und 9 der zweiten Staffel Holger und Rüdiger bei ihrem "Pitt"-Stop überzeugen? Cold-Open-Frage: "Welche HBO-Serie wird die Ellison-Familie nach der Übernahme durch Paramount auf Pro-Trump drehen?"

Another Marvel Monday is here! Let's kick off the week with Iron Man 3. ABOUT IRON MAN 3 When Tony Stark's world is torn apart by a formidable terrorist called the Mandarin, he starts an odyssey of rebuilding and retribution. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR IRON MAN 3 May 3, 2013 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF IRON MAN 3 Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts Don Cheadle as Colonel James Rhodes/War Machine Rebecca Hall as Maya Hansen Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan Ben Kingsley as Trevor Slattery BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We're back in 1999 in Switzerland on New Year's Eve. Tony Stark is hanging out with scientist Maya Hansen, who's showing him some new experimental regenerative tech called Extremis. It's supposed to heal the human body — but there's a big problem with it: sometimes it explodes. Also at the party, Tony gets approached by Aldrich Killian, who awkwardly pitches him on joining his company, Advanced Idea Mechanics (AIM). Tony blows him off in the most Tony way possible — tells him to meet on the roof later and then never shows up because he's too busy with Maya. Cut to the present day, and Tony is not doing great. Ever since the alien invasion in New York, he's been having nonstop panic attacks. He barely sleeps, he keeps building new Iron Man suits, and it's putting serious strain on his relationship with Pepper — especially when he accidentally summons a suit in his sleep and it crashes down on top of her. One day Killian shows up to Stark Industries to pitch Pepper on AIM's tech. She's impressed but can tell it's clearly headed toward becoming a weapon, so she turns him down. Happy overhears the meeting and gets bad vibes from Killian and his associate, Eric Savin, so he starts following them. Happy tails Savin into a crowded market and watches him hand off a briefcase to a military veteran. Inside are these weird glowing capsules that look like drugs or something. Happy confronts the guy, things get physical, and that's when he realizes Savin is basically a human weapon. It ends horribly — there's a massive explosion, and Happy is left critically injured in the hospital. A terrorist known as the Mandarin takes credit for the blast, along with several others around the country. Furious about what happened to Happy, Tony goes on live TV, calls out the Mandarin, and — in a truly terrible decision — gives him his home address. Yeah. That backfires immediately. Before the attack, Maya Hansen shows up trying to warn Tony about something, but she doesn't get the chance. Moments later, helicopters roll in and absolutely level Tony's Malibu mansion. Pepper barely survives, and Tony escapes in a new prototype suit that runs out of power mid-flight and crash-lands in rural Tennessee. The world assumes Iron Man is dead. Stranded with a half-working suit, Tony meets a smart kid named Harley who helps him regroup. Together they investigate the site of a nearby Mandarin explosion, and Tony starts noticing a pattern: all the victims are military veterans connected to AIM. After hacking into AIM's systems, Tony learns the truth — the "bombings" aren't terrorist attacks at all. They're caused by failed Extremis experiments. Some people's bodies reject it and literally blow up, and Killian has been covering it up by framing the "Mandarin". Savin tracks Tony down and attacks him, giving him his first real look at how powerful Extremis is. Following the trail to Miami, Tony storms the Mandarin's hideout using homemade weapons since he still doesn't have a working suit — only to discover the Mandarin isn't a mastermind terrorist at all. He's just a clueless British actor named Trevor who was hired to play the role, created by Killian to have someone to blame. Killian then kidnaps Pepper and injects her with Extremis, planning to use her as leverage to force Tony to help perfect the tech. When Maya changes her mind and tries to stop him, Killian kills her real bad. Killian also lures Rhodey — now rebranded as the Iron Patriot — into a trap and steals his armor. Using it, Killian kidnaps the President right off Air Force One in a staged "Mandarin" attack. Tony manages to remotely save some passengers, but the President is taken. The plan? Kill the President live on TV and install the Vice President — who Killian has been secretly giving Extremis to — as a puppet leader. With Tony & Rhodey teaming up, Rhodes rescues the President while Tony goes after Pepper. Tony calls in all of his Iron Man suits that he has been creating while not sleeping and they swarm the platform in an all-out battle. Pepper survives the Extremis procedure and turns out to be incredibly powerful, but during the fight she falls into the flames below, and Tony thinks she's dead. Tony confronts Killian and traps him in a suit that self-destructs — but it still doesn't finish him off. And since the explosion didn't kill Killian, maybe the explosion didn't kill Pepper. That's right - Pepper's alive. Extremis healed her and gave her super strength, and she uses it to finally kill Killian for good. After the fight, Tony has JARVIS destroy all of his Iron Man suits, Pepper's Extremis is stabilized, and Tony finally has the shrapnel removed from his chest. But he'll always be….IRON Man 3.

As people make more money, they tend to get sharper about almost everything. They think long term, manage risk better, hire experts, invest wisely and optimize their businesses and portfolios. But when it comes to health, a lot of people are still running the same basic playbook everyone else is. Standard labs, five-minute appointments, and just waiting until something breaks. When you want to level up in every area of your life, the conversation shouldn't be, "Am I sick right now?" It should be, "Where am I headed, and how early can I catch it?" The people who are strong, active, and dangerous well into their later decades aren't winging it. They're tracking smarter markers, finding issues years before they become diagnoses. They understand a principle that lines up perfectly with money: The fundamentals compound. Biohacks may be exciting, peptides are trendy, and GLP-1s are everywhere. But if your cardiovascular system is weak, your metabolic health is sliding, and you're losing muscle, then you're not really upgrading your future. You're selling it off. In this episode, I'm joined by Ted Ryce, a performance coach who has worked with high-level entrepreneurs and starts like Richard Branson and Robert Downey Jnr. He talks about how serious operators should think about their bodies, what advanced clients test for that most physicians never bring up, and why mastering the basics still wins in wealth and health. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Looking fit isn't the same as being healthy You can lift, diet, and still be metabolically heading toward disaster, so what numbers actually predict trouble years before a diagnosis? The uncomfortable truth about weight-loss drugs If appetite goes down but muscle disappears with it, are you really improving your future, or borrowing against it? The health metric we shouldn't ignore What does your VO₂ max say about how long and how well you'll live, and why are so few people training it intentionally? Biohacks can't outrun broken fundamentals Before you experiment with peptides, hormones, and supplements, how do you actually master sleep, movement, and recovery? Guest Bio Ted Ryce is a health expert and coach to entrepreneurs, executives, and high-performing professionals who want to reclaim their health, lose weight, upgrade their productivity and live an extraordinary life. Ted's been in the industry for 25+ years, coaching A-listers like Richard Branson, Robert Downey Jr., and hundreds of CEOs and entrepreneurs.

This week we are going Back to School—and we're doing a Triple Lindy straight into 1986 with Rodney at full Dangerfield. We break down Rodney's one-liners, the Triple Lindy legend, campus chaos, that unforgettable oral exam, and a young Robert Downey Jr. just vibing through it all. We talk Danny Elfman's music, Sam Kinison stealing oxygen, box office wins and whether this comedy classic still earns tenure… or gets expelled. It's nostalgia, nonsense, trivia and grades you can't bribe. You'll laugh—you'll learn—and you'll get no respect. Your assignment, PUSH PLAY!
Um grupo de atores mimados e excêntricos é contratado para estrelar um épico de guerra sobre o Vietnã. Mas quando a produção sai do controle e eles são largados em uma selva real, sem perceber, acabam enfrentando perigos de verdade. Convencidos de que ainda estão atuando, precisam se transformar nos soldados que fingiam ser — e descobrir se têm coragem para sobreviver fora dos holofotes.Elenco principalBen Stiller – além de dirigir, interpreta Tugg Speedman, um astro de ação em decadência.Jack Black – vive Jeff Portnoy, comediante viciado em drogas e conhecido por papéis escatológicos.Robert Downey Jr. – rouba a cena como Kirk Lazarus, um ator australiano que leva o “método” ao extremo.Nick Nolte – aparece como o veterano de guerra que inspirou o filme dentro do filme.Steve Coogan – interpreta o diretor atrapalhado da produção.Jay Baruchel e Brandon T. Jackson – completam o grupo de atores perdidos na selva.Participações memoráveis de Tom Cruise (como o impagável produtor Les Grossman) e Matthew McConaughey.Diretor: Ben StillerRoteiro: Ben Stiller, Justin Theroux e Etan CohenO filme mistura ação, sátira e humor ácido, parodiando tanto os filmes de guerra quanto os bastidores de Hollywood.Por que assistir?"Trovão Tropical" é uma crítica mordaz ao ego dos atores e ao sistema de estúdios, mas também uma aventura cheia de momentos absurdos e inesquecíveis. Entre explosões, diálogos afiados e atuações caricatas, o longa se tornou um clássico moderno da comédia.PIX: canalfilmesegames@gmail.comSiga o Filmes e Games:Instagram: filmesegames Facebook: filmesegames Twitter: filmesegamesSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5KfJKthPodcast: https://anchor.fm/fgcast

In this episode, we revisit Tropic Thunder and tackle the question everyone still debates: what on earth was going on with Robert Downey Jr.'s character? We break down the layers of satire, intent, and execution behind one of the most controversial performances in modern comedy—why it was written that way, why it landed (or didn't), and how the joke has aged in a very different cultural moment. Is it fearless satire punching up at Hollywood, or a joke that only works because the movie keeps winking at the audience the whole time?Black Facts : Canice100KCreator Profile PageBlackronyms: d.onyxCreator Profile PageRemember, you can now catch INCYCShow on all Socials or check our Website INCYCSHOW.com YouTube and Pandora.

Released in 1985, Tuff Turf is an underrated 80s teen drama that blends street gangs, high school romance, rebellion, and punk rock attitude into one unforgettable cult classic.Directed by Fritz Kiersch (Children of the Corn), the film stars a young James Spader in his first leading role as Morgan Hiller, an intelligent and rebellious teen from Connecticut who is forced to move to Los Angeles after his family loses their business. Struggling to adjust to his new environment, Morgan quickly clashes with a local high school gang known as “The Tuffs.”Things escalate when Morgan falls for Frankie Croyden (Kim Richards) — the girlfriend of gang leader Nick Hauser (Paul Mones). As tensions rise between rival teens, territorial pride, jealousy, and violence push the story toward an explosive showdown. Along the way, Morgan befriends the eccentric and fast-talking Jimmy Parker, played by a very young Robert Downey Jr. in one of his early film roles.Tuff Turf captures the raw energy of mid-1980s teen cinema, combining elements of romance, action, and coming-of-age drama with a distinctly neon, punk-inspired aesthetic. The film also features appearances by Donald Fullilove (Back to the Future) and includes music from The Jim Carroll Band, adding authentic 80s grit to its soundtrack.Though it received mixed reviews upon release and earned a modest box office performance, Tuff Turf found new life on VHS and cable television, eventually earning a reputation as a cult favorite among fans of 80s teen movies. Today, it stands as a fascinating early chapter in the careers of both James Spader and Robert Downey Jr., long before their rise to mainstream fame in films like Pretty in Pink, Less Than Zero, Iron Man, and television hits like The Blacklist.For fans of classic 80s movies, teen rebellion stories, retro nostalgia, and early performances from major Hollywood stars, Tuff Turf remains a hidden gem worth revisiting.If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Rafael Arinelli, Thiago Muniz, Edu Sacer e Laysa Zanetti se reúnem para dissecar o cardápio cinematográfico de 2026 - e spoiler: tem coisa boa, tem jabá nostalgia e tem Disney espremendo franquia até sair suco de plástico.O papo começa quente com as surpresas de janeiro (quem diria que Extermínio seria surpreendente de verdade?) e segue pelos "oscarizáveis" de fevereiro, incluindo O Morro dos Ventos Uivantes de Emerald Fennell – que promete dividir puristas literários e cinéfilos modernosos. Março traz o possível adeus cinematográfico de Fernanda Montenegro em Velhos Bandidos, enquanto abril entrega o combo nostálgico mais poderoso: O Diabo Veste Prada 2. Meryl Streep voltando para aterrorizar assistentes? That's all.Mas o verdadeiro orgasmo cinéfilo vem em julho com Odisseia, de Christopher Nolan – mitologia grega + IMAX = shut up and take my money. O ano fecha com um embate de titãs: Duna 3 vs. Vingadores: Doutor Destino. Spoiler²: Robert Downey Jr. está de volta à Marvel e ninguém sabe como se sentir sobre isso.Entre blockbusters desnecessários (Toy Story 5, sério?), apostas brasileiras potentes e reboots que ninguém pediu, o Cinemação entrega o mapa completo para você planejar sua falência no cinema em 2026.• 03m55: Pauta Principal• 1h25m33: Plano Detalhe• 1h46m18: EncerramentoOuça nosso Podcast também no:• Spotify: https://cinemacao.short.gy/spotify• Apple Podcast: https://cinemacao.short.gy/apple• Android: https://cinemacao.short.gy/android• Deezer: https://cinemacao.short.gy/deezer• Amazon Music: https://cinemacao.short.gy/amazonAgradecimentos aos padrinhos: • Bruna Mercer• Charles Calisto Souza• Daniel Barbosa da Silva Feijó• Diego Alves Lima• Eloi Xavier• Flavia Sanches• Gabriela Pastori Marino• Guilherme S.

Big Marvel rumors are heating up, and we're breaking them all down on The Kristian Harloff Show. New reports suggest there's a very high chance that Avengers: Secret Wars could be split into two massive movies—and if true, that could change the entire future of the MCU. We also dig into a wild rumor claiming Marvel may want Robert Downey Jr. to return to the MCU as Doctor Doom after Secret Wars. Is this a smart move or a risky nostalgia play? Plus, we cover a possible sequel to F1: The Movie, updates on a potential teaser for Dune: Part Three, and news on the upcoming Eragon series finally locking in its showrunners. Let us know what you think—should Secret Wars be two movies, and would you want to see RDJ as Doctor Doom?

Synopsis What exactly is authority? Where does it come from? How do you get it? Can you move authority from St. Paul, MN to the south side of Chicago? Join Em and Jesse for a wide-ranging chat on the subject. Notes 1/ Of course, many people in addition to women have a hard time getting others (i.e. non-group members) to pay attention to their authority. For example, trans and nonbinary people have a hard time getting anyone to listen to them speaking about their own lived experiences. 2/ I’ve published four novels and a novella since this was recorded, and people actually do think I’m an authority on some topics for some reason. 3/ The story about Aristotle’s phony translators comes from here, I think: https://historyofphilosophy.net/translation-movement Pseudopigrapha: from pseudo, false, and epigraphe, name or inscription. A falsely attributed text. U of Michigan’s Galileo text: “After an internal investigation of the findings of Nick Wilding, professor of history at Georgia State University, the library has concluded that its “Galileo manuscript” is in fact a 20th-century forgery. We’re grateful to Professor Wilding for sharing his findings, and are now working to reconsider the manuscript’s role in our collection.” Also, “Wilding concluded that our Galileo manuscript is a 20th-century fake executed by the well-known forger Tobia Nicotra.” (The quotes are from the linked website.) 4/ According to the Virginia Woolf society, the actual quote is: “I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.” (From ch 3 of A Room of One’s Own.) Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite (5th/6th century CE)) Pseudo-Pseduo-Dionysius is anyone once thought to be Pseudo-Dionysius but now recognized (by modern scholars) to be someone other than Pseudo-Dionysius. Confused? 5/ Pseudo-Bonaventure (14th century CE) wrote Meditations on the Life of Christ. 6/ I’ve become a bit more familiar with copyright law in the three years(!) since we recorded this, since I’ve published three going on four books of my own since then. A really good example of a point I think past Em is trying to make is Sherlock Holmes, who has recently passed into public domain. He’s a neat character and everyone wanted to play with him (look at the adaptations of recent memory: the Robert Downey Jr. films, the BBC’s Sherlock, the American Elementary). But because of copyright law, this was fairly difficult and confusing until very recently, despite the character’s creator having been dead since 1930. These cases raise many questions of authorship vs ownership and how long someone should really be able to make money on an idea. (Patent Law is, if anything, worse, from what I understand.) 7/ It was a photograph of Prince! Since we recorded this, the Supreme Court sided against Andy Warhol’s estate: https://www.npr.org/2023/05/18/1176881182/supreme-court-sides-against-andy-warhol-foundation-in-copyright-infringement-cas Girl Talk is awesome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSoTN8suQ1o I mention him because there was a really good documentary about copyright called RiP! A Remix Manifesto that discussed his work (including a discussion of it with the head of the copyright office of the Library of Congress). 8/ Just to clarify, “fair use” is kind of a complicated issue. When you are a non-commercial educational podcast (ahem), you can use things (like samples of YouTube performances) without having to pay licensing fees. You can also fairly quote sections of things for criticism, news reporting, and research. You can therefore quote lines from songs or poems in textbooks, but not in novels because they aren’t considered teaching. Parody (hello, Weird Al!) can be a weird gray area, because a parody obviously has to be somewhat transformative but still retain enough of a likeness that people will know what you’re parodying, and on this question hangs a lot of lawsuits. (Not toward Weird Al though, as far as I know. But Margaret Mitchell’s estate did try to sue to block the publication of The Wind Done Gone.) See also: Why does Ulysses (in Em’s novels) wear so many band T-shirts and occasionally mention songs and artists, but there are zero song lyrics in the books? Because you can’t copyright band names or album/song titles. Steamboat Willie has actually entered public domain since we recorded this! [So amazing!–Jesse] Peter Pan actually first appeared in 1902! Also, sorry, “Peter Pan is a psychopomp” is somehow not a sentence I had on my bingo card. I guess it has lost a bit in its translation to the screen… On the plus side, SIDS rates have dropped dramatically since 1902? “I can rewrite Macbeth if I want to.” Or a really complex riff on The Bacchae? Em of 2022 did not know what was coming, lol. 9/ Notably, Spivak also quotes primarily women. The episode on Hrotsvit: Episode 22 10/ For more on Juliana of Cornillion and the Feast of Corpus Christi, see Episode 6. 11/ Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale are HERE. (Also, Chaucer was not, as far as we know, toxic like Joss Whedon!) 12/ Incidentally, violent, in-the-moment reactions to mistreatment by another person are called reactive abuse, and they’re often used by abusers to shift the blame onto their victims. If you are being abused or wondering if you are and want to talk to someone, check out the National Domestic Violence Hotline (https://www.thehotline.org/), or look for local programs. Here in Madison, for instance, we have Domestic Abuse Intervention Services (https://abuseintervention.org/).
On this episode of Tales From Hollywoodland, the crew takes a heartfelt trip back through Hollywood history to celebrate some of the most unforgettable second acts ever put on film — the stories of the true Hollywood Comeback Kids. These are the stars who once ruled the screen, quietly faded from the spotlight, and then stunned the world by coming back stronger than ever. We revisit Frank Sinatra's career-saving triumph in From Here to Eternity, John Travolta's jaw-dropping return in Pulp Fiction, and Robert Downey Jr.'s inspiring rise from troubled talent to global superstar. We also explore the powerful later-career chapters of legends like Marlon Brando, Audrey Hepburn, and Demi Moore, and how the right role at the right time reminded audiences why they fell in love with these stars in the first place. Join us as we reminisce about the movies, moments, and performances that gave these actors a second chance at stardom. It's a nostalgic celebration of resilience, reinvention, and the magic of the silver screen — because in Hollywood, sometimes the greatest stories happen after the comeback. We want to hear from you!

Here are some highlights:1. Robert Downey Jr. did not improvise the line "I am Iron Man". It's in the "Iron Man" script.2. There isn't a DEAD munchkin hanging in the background "The Wizard of Oz". It's a bird, and you can see it move like a bird.3. In "Titanic", Jack could physically fit on the door, but it wouldn't have supported him and Rose. The main point of the scene was Jack's sacrifice, not carpentry.4. John Travolta's briefcase in "Pulp Fiction" does not have a secret meaning. Quentin Tarantino has said the glow is just for storytelling.5. George Lucas did not plan "Star Wars" from the beginning. Darth Vader was not intended to be Luke's father when he made the first film.6. Harrison Ford did not accidentally "shoot" the swordsman in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". It was planned. They wanted to simplify the scene by just having Indy end it with a quick bullet.

The movie world just got its own Barbenheimer moment — and this time it's Dune vs Marvel. On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian Harloff and the crew break down the internet-breaking DUNESDAY showdown as Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday appear headed for a massive box-office collision. With Timothée Chalamet and Robert Downey Jr. both breaking their silence on the hype, we analyze what this head-to-head really means for Hollywood. Can Denis Villeneuve's epic sci-fi saga go toe-to-toe with the MCU's biggest event since Endgame, or will Avengers: Doomsday dominate theaters worldwide? We also unpack how the Avengers directors are positioning the latest sneak peeks as clues, not teasers or trailers, and what that might mean for the future of the MCU.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes revisit Curtis Hanson's "Wonder Boys". A funny character drama about authors.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field really enjoy this film, especially its performances and lived-in storytelling. Michael Douglas delivers one of his most relaxed and likable roles, supported by an excellent ensemble, including Tobey Maguire and Robert Downey Jr, that gives the movie its healthy dose of charm.Butler's one sticking point comes near the end. It's not that the film opts for a happy ending, but that everything falls a little too neatly into place for Douglas' character, leaning into a Hollywood resolution that feels slightly too convenient. Even so, that criticism barely dents what is otherwise a terrific film."Wonder Boys" is one of those movies that rewards revisiting and is easy to recommend to anyone looking for a movie for grown-ups about grown-ups.
