The temporary closure of the nightlife industry during covid may have broken the habit for those in their 20s who were new to the clubbing scene. With some businesses closing for good, what other way is Gen Z socialising? Bella Finn from the Newsroom has this report.

Hello Interactors,Spring at Interplace brings a shift to mapping, GIS, and urban design. While talk of industrial revival stirs nostalgia — steel mills, union jobs, bustling Main Streets — the reality on the ground is different: warehouses, data centers, vertical suburbs, and last-mile depots. Less Rosy the Riveter, more Ada Lovelace. Our cities are being shaped accordingly — optimized not for community, but for logistics.FROM STOREFRONTS TO STEEL DOORSLet's start with these two charts recently shared by the historian of global finance and power Adam Tooze at Chartbook. One shows Amazon passing Walmart in quarterly sales for the first time. The other shows a steadily declining drop in plans for small business capital expenditure. Confidence shot up upon the election of Trump, but dropped suddenly when tariff talks trumped tax tempering. Together, these charts paint a picture: control over how people buy, build, and shape space is shifting — fast. It all starts quietly. A parking lot gets fenced off. Trucks show up. Maybe the old strip mall disappears overnight. A few months later, there's a low, gray building with no windows. No grand opening. Just a stream of delivery vans pulling in and out.This isn't just a new kind of facility — it's a new kind of urban and suburban logic.Platform logistics has rewritten the rules of space. Where cities were once shaped by factories and storefronts, now they're shaped by fulfillment timelines, routing algorithms, and the need to move goods faster than planning commissions can meet.In the past, small businesses were physical anchors. They invested in place. They influenced how neighborhoods looked, felt, and functioned. But when capital expenditures from local firms drop — as that second chart shows — their power to shape the block goes with it.What fills the vacuum is logistics. And it doesn't negotiate like the actors it replaces.This isn't just a retail story. It's a story about agency — who gets to decide what a place is for. When small businesses cut back on investment, it's not just the storefront that disappears. So does the capacity to influence a block, a street, a community. Local business owners don't just sell goods — they co-create neighborhoods. They choose where to open, how to hire, how to design, and what kind of social space their business offers. All of that is a form of micro-planning — planning from below. France, as one example, subsidizes these co-created neighborhoods in Paris to insure they uphold the romantic image of a Parisian boulevard.But without subsidies, these actors are disappearing. And in the vacuum, big brands and logistics move in. Not softly, either. Amazon alone added hundreds of logistics facilities to U.S. land in the past five years. Data centers compete for this land. Meta recently announced a four million square foot facility in Richland Parish, Louisiana. It will be their largest data center in the world.These buildings are a new kind of mall. They're massive, quiet, windowless buildings that optimize for speed, not presence. This is what researchers call logistics urbanization — a land use logic where space is valued not for what people can do in it, but for how efficiently packages and data can pass through it.The shift is structural. It remakes how land is zoned, how roads are used, and how people move — and it does so at a scale that outpaces most municipal planning timelines. That's not just a market change. It's a change in governance. Because planners? Mayors? Even state reps? They're not steering anymore. They're reacting.City managers once had tools to shape growth — zoning, permitting, community input. But logistics and tech giants don't negotiate like developers. They come with pre-designed footprints and expectations. If a city doesn't offer fast approval, industrial zoning, and tax breaks, they'll skip to the next one. And often, they won't even say why. Economists studying these state and local business tax incentives say these serve as the “primary place-based policy in the United States.”It forces a kind of economic speed dating. I see it in my own area as local governments vie for the attention (and revenue) of would-be high-tech suitors. But it can be quiet, as one report suggests: “This first stage of logistical urbanization goes largely unnoticed insofar as the construction of a warehouse in an existing industrial zone rarely raises significant political issues.”(2)This isn't just in major cities. Across the U.S., cities are bending their long-term plans to chase short-term fulfillment deals. Even rural local governments routinely waive design standards and sidestep public input to accommodate warehouse and tech siting — because saying no can feel like missing out on tax revenue, jobs, or political wins.(2)What was once a dynamic choreography of land use and local voices becomes something flatter: a data pipeline.It isn't all bad. Fulfillment hubs closer to homes mean fewer trucks, shorter trips, and lower emissions. Data centers crunching billions of bits is better than a PC whirring under the desk of every home. There is a scale and sustainability case to be made.But logistic liquidity doesn't equal optimistic livability. It doesn't account for what's lost when civic agency fades, or when a city works better for packages than for people. You can optimize flow — and still degrade life.That's what those two charts at the beginning really show. Not just an economic shift, but a spatial one. From many small decisions to a few massive ones. From storefronts and civic input to corporate site selection and zoning flips. From a lived city to a delivered one.Which brings us to the next shape in this story — not the warehouse, but the mid-rise. Not the loading dock, but the key-fob lobby. Different function. Same logic.HIGH-RISE, LOW TOUCHYou've seen them. The sleek new apartment buildings with names like The Foundry or Parc25. A yoga room, a roof deck, and an app for letting in your dog walker. “Mixed-use,” they say — but it's mostly private use stacked vertically.It's much needed housing, for sure. But these aren't neighborhoods. They're private bunkers with balconies.Yes, they're more dense than suburban cul-de-sacs. Yes, they're more energy-efficient than sprawl. But for all their square footage and amenity spaces, they often feel more like vertical suburbs — inward-facing, highly managed, and oddly disconnected from the street.The ground floors are usually glazed over with placeholder retail: maybe a Starbucks, a Subway, or nothing at all…often vacant with only For Lease signs. Residents rarely linger. Packages arrive faster than neighbors can introduce themselves. There's a gym to bench press, but no public bench or egress. You're close to hundreds of people — and yet rarely bump into anyone you didn't schedule.That's not a design flaw. That's the point.These buildings are part of a new typology — one that synchronizes perfectly with a platform lifestyle. Residents work remote. Order in. Socialize through screens. The architecture doesn't foster interaction because interaction isn't the product. Efficiency is.Call it fulfillment housing — apartments designed to plug into an economy that favors logistics and metrics, not civic social fabrics. They're located near tech centers, distribution hubs, and delivery corridors, and sometimes libraries or parks outdoors. What matters is access to bandwidth and smooth entry for Amazon and Door Dash.And it's not just what you see on the block. Behind the scenes, cities are quietly reengineering themselves to connect these structures to the digital twins — warehouses and data centers. Tucked into nearby low-tax exurbs or industrial zones, together they help reshape land use, strain energy grids, and anchor the platform economy.They're infrastructure for a new kind of urban life — one where presence is optional and connection to the cloud is more important than to the crowd.Even the public spaces inside these buildings — co-working lounges, shared kitchens, “community rooms” — are behind fobs, passwords, and management policies. Sociologists have called this the anticommons: everything looks shared, but very little actually is. It's curated collectivity, not true community.And it's not just isolation — it's predictability. These developments are built to minimize risk, noise, conflict, friction. Which is also to say: they're built to minimize surprise. The kind of surprise that once made cities exciting. The kind that made them social.Some urban scholars describe these spaces as part of a broader “ghost urbanism” — a city where density exists without depth. Where interaction is optional. Where proximity is engineered, but intimacy is not. You can be surrounded by life and still feel like you're buffering.The irony is these buildings often check every sustainability box. They're LEED-certified. Near transit. Built up, not out. From a local emissions standpoint, they beat the ‘burbs'. But their occupant's consumption, waste, and travel habits can create more pollution than homebody suburbanites. And from a civic standpoint — the standpoint of belonging, encounter, spontaneity — they're often just as empty.And so we arrive at a strange truth: a city can be efficient, dense, even walkable — and still feel ghosted. Because what we've optimized for isn't connection. It's delivery — to screens and doorsteps. What gets delivered to fulfillment housing may be frictionless, but it's rarely fulfilling.DRONES, DOMICILES, AND DISCONNECTIONI admit there's a nostalgia for old-world neighborhoods as strong as nostalgia for industrial cities of the past. Neighborhoods where you may run into people at the mailbox. Asking someone in the post office line where they got their haircut. Sitting on the porch, just waitin' on a friend. We used to talk about killing time, now we have apps to optimize it.It's not just because of screens. It's also about what kinds of space we've built — and what kind of social activity they allow or even encourage.In many suburbs and edge cities, the mix of logistics zones, tech centers, and residential enclaves creates what urban theorists might call a fragmented spatial syntax. That means the city no longer “reads” as a continuous experience. Streets don't tell stories.There's no rhythm from house to corner store to café to school. Instead, you get jump cuts — a warehouse here, a cul-de-sac there, a fenced-in apartment complex down the road. These are spaces that serve different logics, designed for speed, security, or seclusion — but rarely for relation. The grammar of the neighborhood breaks down. You don't stroll. You shuttle.You drive past a warehouse. You park in a garage. You enter through a lobby. You take an elevator to your door. There's no in-between space — no casual friction, no civic ambiguity, no shared air.These patterns aren't new. But they're becoming the norm, not the exception. You can end up living in a place but never quite arrive.Watch most anyone under 35. Connection increasingly happens online. Friendships form in Discord servers, not diners. Parties are planned via private stories, not porch swings. You don't run into people. You ping them.Sometimes that online connection does spill back into the real world — meetups, pop-ups, shared hobbies that break into public space. Discord, especially, has become a kind of digital third place, often leading to real-world hangouts. It's social. Even communal. But it's different. Fleeting. Ephemeral. Less rooted in place, more tied to platform and notifications.None of this is inherently bad. But it does change the role of the neighborhood as we once knew it. It's no longer the setting for shared experience — it's just a backdrop for bandwidth. That shift is subtle, but it adds up. Without physical places for civic life, interactions gets offloaded to platforms. Connection becomes mediated, surveilled, and datafied. You don't meet your neighbors. You follow them. You comment on their dog through a Ring alert.This is what some sociologists call networked individualism — where people aren't embedded in shared place-based systems, but orbit through overlapping digital networks. And when digital is the default, the city becomes a logistics problem. Something to move through efficiently…or not. It certainly is not something we're building together. It's imposed upon us.And so we arrive at a kind of paradox:We're more connected than ever. But we're less entangled.We're more visible. But we're less involved.We're living closer. But we don't feel near.The irony is the very platforms that hollow out public space are now where we go looking for belonging. TikTok isn't just where we go to kill time — it's where we go to feel seen. If your neighborhood doesn't give you identity, the algorithm will.Meanwhile, the built environment absorbs the logic of logistics. Warehouses and data centers at the edge. Mid-rises in the core. Streets engineered for the throughput of cars and delivery vans. Housing designed for containment. And social life increasingly routed elsewhere.It all works. Until you want to feel something.We're social creatures, biologically wired for connection. Neuroscience shows that in-person social interactions regulate stress, build emotional resilience, and literally shape how our brains grow and adapt. It's not just emotional. It's neurochemical. Oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin — the chemistry of belonging — fire most powerfully through touch, eye contact, shared space. When those rituals shrink, so does our sense of meaning and safety.And that's what this is really about. Historically cities weren't just containers for life. They're catalysts for feeling. Without shared air, shared time, and shared friction, we lose more than convenience. We lose the chance to feel something real — to be part of a place, not just a node in a network.What started with two charts ends here: a world where local agency, social spontaneity, and even emotion itself are being restructured by platform logic. The city still stands. The buildings are there. The people are home. But the feeling of place — the buzz, the bump, the belonging — gets harder to find.That's the cost of efficiency without empathy. Of optimizing everything but meaning.And that's the city we're building. Unless we build something else. We'll need agency. And not just for planners or developers. For people.That's the work ahead. Not to reject the platform city. But to remake it — into something more livable. More legible. More ours. This is a public episode.

Do you ever feel like your therapist or other mental health professionals don't quite understand the pressures of your high-stakes career? Like no matter what you try, you're the square peg being forced into a round hole? You're not alone. The demands of entrepreneurship and fast-paced, high-pressure work environments create a unique set of mental health needs, but traditional mental healthcare systems often fall short in addressing them. Dr. Jay has experienced this firsthand in his own mental health journey and heard the same from friends and clients he's coached. That's why, in this episode, he's brought in psychologist Dr. Janna Koretz, who specializes in supporting busy professionals who want to maintain their mental well-being without sacrificing their careers. Together, they explore where conventional therapy often misses the mark for these individuals, the myth of perfection, purpose vs happiness, career enmeshment, and much more. Dr. Janna Koretz is a licensed psychologist who specializes in entrepreneur mental health, focusing on key areas such as co-founder struggles, impostor syndrome, communication skills, burnout, decision-making under stress, and effective leadership. With years of clinical training as a psychologist and the unique perspective gained from her own entrepreneurial journey, Dr. Koretz connects with entrepreneurs on a deeper level. She provides the nuance, rigor, and evidence-based practices necessary to help them navigate their most significant challenges. She is also the founder of Azimuth Psychological, where she and her team focus on the unique challenges of those in high-pressure careers. Learn all about Azimuth and the services they offer!

I've got a juicy episode for you today!!! Today we are talking about Why Your Weight Loss Plan Isn't Working and what to do about it. I do not know how many women come to me and tell me they are doing all the right things but it is just not working. What you are actually doing is WHAT YOU THINK are all the right things…but clearly if you are not getting the results you want then you are NOT doing the right things. Sorry if that stings a bit. But here's the thing: you cannot do all the right things when your mind is not set up for weight loss success. Welcome to the Weight Loss For Women Over 40 podcast. I am your host Nikki T. and I am the person you call when you want to lose weight for the last time.   If you have been doing all the “right things” and still not seeing the changes you want to see…then you are in the right place! I am the person you call when you want to lose weight for the last time. I have seen and personally experienced both sides of how to lose weight…the dieter's mentality way…sacrifice, beat yourself up and hate yourself skinny… and this is why I created my method which involves understanding from a mental standpoint of why you do the things you do or aren't doing…like losing weight easily. My clients tell me my way of losing weight is so much more freeing and fun! Yes FUN! You can have fun losing weight. It happens when you learn and understand my method because you will know exactly how to lose weight no matter what is going on in your life.   I got an email from a former client who did my Jumpstart Group and she said “I've lost 40+ lbs since I started the program with you a year ago [She lost 17lbs inside the group program]!  I'm stronger and can do activities so MUCH EASIER than I could before—just went on a family trip where day 1, we hiked 5 miles at 10k elevation, day 2 we biked 10 miles at 10k elevation, and day 3 we hiked 3 miles at nearly 12k elevation. I was just normal tired afterwards, but not super slow/exhausted like I would've been last year! ”… My Method WORKS! The Fall Group is closed but you can get on the waitlist for January by going to https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/group or work with me privately one-on one- I have one spot open for private coaching. Go to https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/call to schedule a call and learn more about how I can help you.   Why your workout plan is not working….there actually could be many reasons why it is not jelling for you…and most people want to go to the food or the workout…which is external stuff….But have you gone and done….listen in for more.   I have another bonus workbook for you. This is going to flush this out for you a bit more. So go grab your free copy of the Why Your Weight Loss Plan Isn't Working Workbook https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/airport    Book a call to work with Nikki T https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/call Learn more about losing weight and grab your "5 Reasons You Are Not Losing Weight Over 40" e-book https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/book  Socialize with me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/weightlossforwomenover40/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@weightlossforwomenover40 YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Weightlossforwomenover40  

This Is Holding You Back In Your Weight Loss Efforts Typically when you start a diet or you decide you want to lose weight you start thinking of all the things that you are not allowed to have…. and you may lose weight taking that process but 9 times out of 10 you're going to regain the weight or you're just going to be miserable for the rest of your life trying to maintain that weight loss…   Today,I want to share with you why THIS  mindset is holding you back and I'll give you a better alternative way of approaching weight loss especially when you are a woman over 40.  We all know that things change during middle age.  Our hormones are changing.  Our life may be changing.  But the one thing that I teach my clients is no matter what is going on in your life….  You can have control over how you want your body to look and feel no matter what is going on.   When you decide to lose weight you start listing all the things you CAN”T do anymore… I CAN”T eat this food… I can't eat after 6 pm (which btw is a HUGE myth!!)…. I can't sit and relax anymore because I have to workout… I can't sleep in because I have to get up at 4am to do my workouts… I can't have sweets…and on and on…   This makes me tense just listing it to you!!   How does THIS make you feel when you hear this??  Are your shoulders creeping up?   Unfortunately this is the approach many women of our age take. There is a better way…   Listen in for more…   I have created another mini workbook like I did for the last episode on Weight Loss Failures (btw the link for that was not working before…it is all fixed so go grab the Fails workbook as well!)   This additional mini workbook on What is holding you back is going to help you…You can download it for free at https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/holding   This is going to help you work through what is holding you back and if you want additional support I HIGHLY recommend you apply to the September Jumpstart group! Where the goal is to lose your first 10 lbs…which most clients are losing 17…and the beauty of my method is that you not only lose those 1st 10 pounds you will know they are NOT coming back AND  you will know EXACTLY how to continue to lose the rest of the weight …with or without my help when the group is finished! I do have some group clients continue working with me privately after the group for additional coaching support but I also have others who continue on their own and are also successful.

This conversation is one of the most amazing I've had since starting Now and Zen Japan. This episode could certainly change your life. Especially if you suffer from unhealthy lifestyle habits. Prepare to be blown away by Kaki Okumura's wisdom, demeanor, and insight into well-being and nutrition.  Kaki breaks down Japanese based wellness concepts through her "Four Essential Pillars to Healthy Living" in a very convincing and non-preachy way.  She is a writer, an illustrator, a wellness coach, and very well could be a therapist or nutrition teacher. In addition to her fascinating backstory  which includes her experience with food being a source of stress and anxiety and how healthy eating does not have to be a sacrifice,  we get into her business as a writer on Medium, starting her own business just after university, and the various revenue streams she has built for herself. Just start listening to the first 5 minutes and for sure you will be hooked and inspired by her simple and empathetic message. Other topics we discuss: Improving your overall well-being based on Japanese conceptsWhy eating healthy in the US is a challenge whereas its pretty simple in JapanThe power of balanced meals, moderation, and portion managementHow retired sumo wrestlers lose weightWhat Japanese can learn from the US about healthy livingWhy ginger is included with so many Japanese mealsFood is closely linked to environment, experiences, and emotionsIs "organic" really healthier?Variety, and why this is nutritionally important  How much can one make writing for Medium?The Free Unsolicited Business IdeaKaki's two favorite untranslatable Japanese wordsKaki's Website: https://kakikata.space/More Now and Zen Japan episodes: https://www.nowandzen.jp/Grow website traffic = Zo Digital: https://www.zodigital.jp/Japan Adventures via Camper Van = Dream Drive: https://www.dreamdrive.lifeUse the code word "ZEN" to receive discounts

We are going to dive into what are some common things that are getting in your way and what you can do to navigate around them. Welcome to the Weight Loss for Women Over 40 podcast!    I am your host, Nikki T and I am the lady to call when you are ready to lose weight for the last time.    If you are new here…welcome! And if you are a loyal listener… thank you!!!   I don't know how many women who come up to me and thank me for creating this podcast and how it has helped them tremendously. I am soooo grateful that I get to do what I do because NO ONE needs to hate themselves skinny or constantly obsess over every little thing they eat and do.    If this podcast has helped you out or inspired you to go after the body you want (and deserve) I would like to ask you to write a written review over on Apple podcasts. When you share your 5 star opinion it helps other women find this podcast so they can also know that they don't have to force themselves into some diet or crazy pill or shot to get the body they want and love.

In a boozy world it can be pretty daunting to socialize sober when you stop drinking.  When you go to a restaurant the first thing they hand you is the drinks menu with all the wine, beer and cocktails offered.  When you walk into a party someone will immediately ask you what you want to drink and tell you where you can grab an alcoholic beverage.  And it seems like every sports event, dinner, holiday, concert, picnic and kids' birthday party is a drinking event these days.  So I asked Susie Streelman to join me to talk about how to socialize sober.  We want to give you actionable, practical strategies that you can use today to handle events like a sober pro.  4 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.

On today's episode we are talking about 3 Ways To Break Through Weight Loss Plateaus If you have lost some weight and now you feel like you are stuck or even at a plateau …I want to present you with a different way to look at being stuck and give you 3 ways to move you forward.   Hey there! Welcome back to the show Weight Loss For Women Over 40 podcast. I am your host Nikki T. and I am the person you call when you want to lose weight for the last time. If you have been doing all the “right things” and still not seeing the changes you want to see…then you are in the right place! I have seen and personally experienced both sides of how to lose weight…the dieter's mentality way…sacrifice, beat yourself up and hate yourself skinny… verses my method which involves understanding from a mental standpoint of why you do the things you do or aren't doing…like losing weight easily. I'll tell you what my clients tell me is my way is so much more freeing and fun! Yes FUN! You can have fun losing weight. It happens when you learn and understand my method because you will know exactly how to lose weight no matter what is going on in your life.   I got a text from a former client who did my Jumpstart Group and she said “I just returned from a vacation and saw your post about another client that lost weight on vacation. I am pleased to inform you that I ALSO lost weight on vacation! In the past, I either overdid it on vacation and would come back to an increase of several pounds; or when I was in dieter's mentality, I would not enjoy myself on vacation…measuring everything and excluding certain foods, etc”…She lost 12 lbs in my Jumpstart Group and now has lost 20lbs continuing on her own using my method. My Method WORKS! If you want to get in on the next Jumpstart Group enrollment is now open. You can go to https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/GROUP and schedule your application call to see if you are a fit.    Not ready, then go grab your free e-book on “5 Reasons Why You Are Not Losing Weight Over 40” while it is still available. https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/book    Alright, let's dive into todays' topic…3 Ways To Break Through Weight Loss Plateau What is your first thought of plateaus? That you are just stuck in limbo …never to continue to lose weight…you have hit your “set point” and you are done…. In weight loss, a plateau is considered a point at which your body has basically stalled and you are not seeing the results that you want to see….listen in for more.   Links: Lose weight for the last time!

On today's episode we are talking about The Truth About Weight Loss Over 40  Welcome to the Weight Loss For Women Over 40  podcast. I am your host Nikki T. and I am the person you call when you want to lose weight for the last time. My coaching programs do not give you a diet to follow or some crazy workout routine that you need to spend hours and hours of your time working out. What you do get out of working with me is a customized program that allows you to eat the foods you love, move your body in activities you love and helps you navigate your way through the mind drama you have over food and exercise. If you are ready to have a complete mind and body transformation then head over to https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/call and book your call with me to get started!  Not ready, then go grab your free e-book on “5 Reasons Why You Are Not Losing Weight Over 40” while it is still available. https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/book   Let's dive into The Truth About Weight Loss Over 40  There is this expectation that when you get to a certain age you are supposed to start slowing down. For instance…When you retire you are expected to live out your golden years in what I imagine …sipping iced tea in a rocking chair on your porch as you watch people go by. When the kids are off at college and you and your husband are trying to figure out who you are when it is just the two of you…there's so much more empty space to fill up. When you start noticing small changes in the way your body looks or feels and you may start to feel a bit like a hypochondriac…oh I felt a pain in my chest I must be having a heart attack. You may start to feel like it's a bit harder to do the things you want to do…like ok I am older I've raised the kids and now...I am just tired and worn down. And add in all the crazy that comes with perimenopause…it's very easy to want to just sit on the couch all day and read a book and drink a very large cup of hot coffee…or vodka!...listen in for more.   Links: Lose weight for the last time!

Today on the podcast we are going to talk about Debunking the TOP 5 Weight Loss Myths Welcome to the Weight Loss for Women Over 40 podcast! I am your host Nikki T. I have been helping women lose weight since 2002! For about half of that time, using my background as a Personal Trainer and Physical Therapist Assistant, I gave fat-burning workout programs and nutritional meal plans and guidelines to my clients…and they got results! But what I have found is they haven't kept the weight off…after experimenting on myself 1st (I am my first client) I discovered the missing piece to keeping the weight off for good. It is in the mindset work. When clients come to me they get fast and effective workout plans. I teach them my one rule (which is super flexible) and they get food guidelines where no foods are off limits. But the most life-changing part of working with me is when we get together each week for virtual coaching THIS where we dive into the why behind what you are doing. Because whatever you are doing now is creating the body you have now…so if you want to change your body and get healthier you need to change the way you think about weight loss. If you are ready to take the next step and lose the extra weight for good, I want to invite you to book a call to work with me by going to https://www.weightlossforwomenover40.net/call  Not ready to work with me yet?
