Campbell River teachers held a protest rally and march in down-town Campbell River Monday.
Teachers are so angry over what happened we decided to have a rally, Elaine Thompson, president of the Campbell River District Teach-ers Association said before setting

Evergreen Road residents want no part of a low-barrier shelter for homeless people in their neighbour-hood.
Just relocate it downtown and the problem is solved! said one man who was applauded by fellow neigh-bours.
Mondays meeting wasnt well attended about 20 people total but it was certainly contentious as just over a dozen residents came to voice their opposition. In a nutshell, they dont want people who are high on drugs or drunk to use the Salva-tion Armys shelter on Evergreen.
I already feel its a low barrier shelter already, said neighbour Abby Morris who documents the needles and other drug paraphernalia she finds in her yard. We dont need to deal with this in our neighbourhood.

The City of Campbell River is seeking approval to extend the municipal boundaries of the City of Campbell River southbound to include a portion of the Electoral Area D of the Strathcona Regional District as shown on the attached map.
The Community Charter requires that council must obtain the approval of the electors of the municipality in relation to a proposed boundary extension. Approval of the electors may be obtained by an Alternative Approval Process (AAP).
The AAP process states that the City may proceed with the boundary extension unless at least 10% (2,401) of the estimated number of electors in the City of Campbell River have signed and submitted individual elector response forms against the proposal by the deadline set out below. The number of eligible electors in the City of Campbell River is estimated to be 24,011.
Elector Response Forms(AAP) elector response forms will be accepted only if they are in the form established by the City of Campbell River or an accurate copy of the form. The forms are available at the Office of the City Clerk at City Hall and on the website at www.campbellriver.ca starting on Friday, May 30th.
For an elector response form to be accepted, it MUST: Be submitted by a qualified registered elector of the City of Campbell River; Include the full name of the elector; Include the residential address of the elector; Be signed by the elector; If applicable, state the address of the property in relation to which the person is entitled to register as a non-resident property elector; and Be submitted to the City Clerk before the deadline.
NOTE: a person must not sign any alternative approval process elector response form more than once and may not withdraw his or her name from the elector response form after the deadline for submission of the elector response forms has passed.
Deadline The deadline for submitting signed elector response forms opposing the Area D boundary extension proposal is no later than 4:00 pm, Monday, July 21, 2014. Elector response forms must be in the possession of the City Clerk by this time, as postmarks WILL NOT be accepted as date of submission. Forms may be mailed or dropped off to the attention of the City Clerk, 301 St. Anns Road, Campbell River BC, V9W 4C7, faxed to 250.286.5760, or emailed to [email protected].
Information related to the boundary extension is available on the Citys website at www.campbellriver.ca/ or copies are available for public inspection at the City Hall, 301 St. Anns Road, Campbell River, BC during regular office hours of 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.

S e v e r e d a r m another severed arm, it looks like a crime scene, says Sandra Milligan as she walks the Willow Point Reef.
After apparently avoid-ing the Campbell River area last year, sea star wasting syndrome is now here and local stars are disappearing at an astonishing rate.
I walked here last month and those big rocks were loaded with purple sea stars, now there are none, says Mil-ligan, a biology instruc-tor at North Island Col-lege whos hosted inter-tidal walks along the reef for the past decade.
Milligans scrutinizing the bigger rocks closer to shore looking for sur-viving Pisaster, a genus of Pacific sea stars that includes three species that come in colours of ochre, brown, orange and purple.
But the rocks nearest shore are bare of Pisas-ter, a keystone species whose presence helps at least 10 other species of invertebrates thrive due to a delicate balance of
competition.Take away the star fish
hungry predators and the mussel population starts to boom. Thats what Milligan sees as she walks out towards the reef: More mussels, fewer star fish and the signs of disease on the living.
Out on the reef there are numerous examples of star fish mostly pur-ple going through the four stages of the wasting syndrome. A white spot a single arm of a plump and very purple Pisaster
is the first sign of trouble.From there it can
quickly spread. The star fish deflates, loses its colour and turns into a whitish goo before dying.
The disease, believed to be caused by bacte-ria or virus, was first noticed last year in B.C. coastal waters. Then it was seen throughout the Pacific Northwest, but the Campbell River area seemed strangely unaf-fected.
Scientists point out there have been past
de c l ines in re cent decades of star fish pop-ulations, but never to this extent. Now, once-plentiful local star fish are disappearing and fast, especially from the Wil-low Point Reef.
Where a month ago we had to avoid them as we walked, there were essentially none a Pisaster wasteland, wrote Deb Cowper, education manager of the Discovery Passage Aquarium, in an e-mail.
With the low tide on
Monday, Milligan and two college students walked the reef to count star fish as best they can. They counted 371 Pisas-ter with 43 or just over 10 per cent in various stages of the wasting syn-drome and that included 18 dead.
With the low tides, many others are walk-ing the reefs and theyre being asked to watch their footing around diseased stars and not to handle them in an effort to prevent cross-contam-ination.
Fast Factsn Sea stars are more
abundant and diverse in our waters than any-where else in the world, according to the Vancou-ver Aquarium.n Sea stars appeared
to be over-abundant throughout the Strait of Georgia, but divers began noticing sick and dying stars in early Sep-tember 2013.n The phenomenon
seems to be affecting a number of species including purple stars, pink stars, mottled stars and several others. How-ever, the sunflower star
appears to be the hardest hit species, with dense aggregations disappear-ing in a matter of weeks.n When sea stars are
affected, white lesions appear on the animal. Within hours or days the sea star becomes limp and its arms may fall off. Necrosis eventually takes over and the animal dies.n To learn more, visit

Wasting syndrome strikes local sea stars
Sandra Milligan holds a purple sea star (Pisaster) that has already lost one of its five limbs due to wasting syndrome.

off from Spirit Square through the downtown streets. The employer rejected everything. So that was like the straw that broke the camels back. People are angry.
An exchange of pro-posals between the B.C. Teachers Federation (BCTF) and govern-ment negotiators on the weekend dissolved in acrimony today, with a full-scale strike in public
schools already under-way. Negotiators for the BCTF and the B.C. Pub-lic School Employers Association (BCPSEA) met until midnight Sun-day, as the union moved from rotating strikes to a full walkout with a study session on Monday. The two sides contradicted each other on the sub-stance of the wage offers, and each said the next move is up to the other if a deal is to be reached.
BCTF president Jim Iker said a complete strike is imminent, after union members endorsed the move in their second province-wide strike vote.
Education Minister Peter Fassbender said Monday he is waiting for a response from the union to the latest offer from BCPSEA, which represents the prov-inces 60 school districts. BCPSEA chief negotia-
tor Peter Cameron said Monday he still does not have a full position from the BCTF that clarifies the status of the unions truckload of benefit proposals.
Cameron said the unions latest offer is a reduction from its previ-ous position, but when increased benefit costs are factored in, it is more than twice as much com-pensation as any other public sector unions got.
Someone is going to get hurt!
The 22-bed shelter on Evergreen is categorized as high barrier mean-ing that visitors must be sober and not under the influence of drugs when they enter each night.
But that policy leaves some people outdoors. This past fall and winter, a trial project took place in downtown Campbell River utilizing a portable 16-bed shelter that was set up beside the #1 fire-hall.
It was classified as low barrier and operations were managed by mem-bers of the Radiant Life Community Church located across the street who worked in conjunc-tion with Campbell River Family Services and the Homelessness Coalition.
The shelter proved to be quite successful and received a lot of com-munity and business support, as well as the approval of the RCMP
who noted a drastic reduction in calls for service.
However, the pilot project is over and that shelter is gone, meaning theres no low-barrier shelter available.
That led to Mondays meeting spearheaded by the Salvation Army and their supporters on the Homelessness Coalition. The goal was to have a forum to see what neigh-bours envisioned for the needs of the homeless, but it got off to a rocky start.
The Salvation Army and the Homelessness Coalition split the cost to hire a consulting firm to engage the public, but consultants were the last people the residents wanted to hear from.
Why are you asking us about the needs of the homeless? Were not the experts, said another man.
While a woman added, Yes, something needs to be done, but I think
we all agree it should be located downtown.
During a meeting in January, the needs of the homeless were specifi-cally addressed by a wide variety of service provid-ers.
The consensus of the group was the need for, An easily-accessed minimal-barrier shelter operating 24/7 under a harm reduction model, offering a spectrum of services on-site, includ-ing sobering assessment.
And that led to the Sal-vation Army being asked to reclassify its Evergreen shelter to make it low barrier.
We would like to be part of the solutionour partner, BC Housing, is supportive of the reclas-sification, said Salvation Army Capt. Gordon Tay-lor in a news release that appeared in last Wednes-days Mirror.
However, at Mondays meeting, Sean Junglas of the Salvation Army said BC Housing was invited,
but wouldnt come. He also tried to appease the agitated residents by say-ing that a decision has not been made and their concerns will be noted.
He also sided with them in one respect and suggested the shelter could one day be moved.
Its not an ideal loca-tion for a shelter facility, he admitted of the Ever-green location.
In the end, the resi-dents refused to take part in a forum. Rather they wanted their objections noted and passed along to the deciding authori-ties.
Junglas promised to do that.
I know youre upset, frustrated and very concernedI also want to provide services our community needs, he said.
A second meeting with the consulting group was held Tuesday with local service providers. Details were not available at press time.

Its easy to feel invincible when youre healthy and lets hope you stay healthy for a long, long time. But what if the unthinkable happens and you become disabled or critically ill? Who would continue to provide the income that supports your familys lifestyle and provide vital essentials like food and shelter?
The right living bene ts insurance that ts your needs will provide nancial security for the tough times and peace of mind for the good times.
Disability Insurancecan provide a source of income should you become unable to earn a living because of an injury or accident. Using savings, drawing from your investments held in your RRSP, or going into debt to nance your loss of income can signi cantly impact your current lifestyle as well as your plans for the future. For business owners, disability insurance is essential to avoid the personal nancial losses
that can be fatal to your business. The bene ts from a personal owned disability plan will be tax-free and will continue during the bene t period while disabled.
Critical Illness Insurance complements the bene ts available from a disability plan by paying out a lump-sum of money if you contract a speci c life threatening illness, such as cancer, stroke, or heart attack. You can use the funds to pay for treatment, subsidize your income or even to pay off your mortgage, personal or business loans.
Many Canadians assume our healthcare system will pay all their expenses if they become critically ill but some medications arent covered, nor are additional expenses like travel, daycare and homecare.
Long Term Care Insurancepays out bene ts for those requiring homecare including medical care, nursing care in the home, homemaker services, respite care for caregivers, and any other costs that
may arise during the period of impairment.
It is widely assumed that all long term care services are paid for by the provincial health care systems but this is not the case. The reality is that many necessary services are often in excess of government aid and can add up to $4,000 in monthly long term care costs.
Theres no doubt that living bene ts insurance coverage can help you control your future and protect your familys nancial health. However, the available type of bene ts and options can vary thats why you should discuss your needs with your professional advisor who can help you get the coverage thats best for you.This column, written and published by Investors Group Financial Services Inc.

The Campbell River Head Injury Support Society intends to expand its operations in order to provide its clients with a long-term home.
The society plans to build an apartment building next to its Hill-crest House facility as early as next year.
Shelley Howard, execu-tive director of the Head Injury Support Society, said the owner of prop-erty next door to their place at Dogwood and 9th, has agreed to sell the land.
Weve been working
with the property owner next door and we have been successful, How-ard told city council last week. He is looking at selling to us in January. Weve put it to paper weve got some building ideas, weve got some drawings of how the apartment is going to look.
The society intends to build a four-storey building with up to 22 rooms that will be a mix of studio suites and one and two bedroom apart-ments.
There will also be offices for community non-profits looking for a place to put down roots.
Apartments proposed

Coun. Ryan Mennie has done many great things for our community both on council, in his employment and in his personal life and for that he deserves our thanks.
Anyone offering to stand for public office and endure the subsequent abuse it opens you up to, deserves our appreciation.
His decision to remain on council, however, after he moves to Alberta to take up new employment is a disappointing one. It might be practical
do we really want to incur the cost of a by-election or operate a shorthanded council and it might be political the power balance on our contentious present council will shift but Mennies choice just does not look good.
Campbell River has a history of this kind of absentee representation and it was not pretty. A previous councillor continued to serve on council for a significant amount of time and receive compensation even though he was living and working off the Island. A hue and cry was raised over that situation and it sent the message that the community expects our councillors
to be present and accounted for. Coun. Mennie could still govern effectively via electronic media and really, what difference does five months make? But its not a comfortable solution, the optics are not right, again, in light of Campbell Rivers past history on this issue.
When Mennie made this decision, we hope somebody pulled him aside and pointed out how well this was going to go over. If he still believed in his decision, thats admirable we want our political representatives to lead with conviction but he also has to live with the criticism.
Councillors expected to be present and accounted forOur ViewOur View
We say: City has a history of controversy on this issue
What is our return on investment?We are expected to invest, over the next five months or
so, about $10,000 into a city councillor who no longer lives in the province, let alone our community. So what, exactly, will we be getting for that 10 Grand?
Will we be able to talk to him, directly, about an issue? Will we be able to challenge him on his stand on a issue? Will he be able to physically see, for himself, something that is happening in the city that is of concern to those of us, who actually live here? Will he be directly effected by the decisions he votes on?
I think you will agree that the answer, on all accounts, is no.
So why this insistence on remaining a member of this council, for the last five months of its sitting? Is it the money? If it is, then there is a serious issue, for that is not a good enough reason for the citizens of this community. It smacks of personal interest and greed, which does not serve the best interest of the taxpayer.
I suspect that money may be part of it, but I suspect the real reason is even more base than that. Continuing the dis-function of a 4-3 vote.

B.C. schools get an F in labour managementSo, the teachers go out on strike and
everybody is asked to take sides.With social media that becomes even
more imperative as supporters and detractors alike post strongly-worded opinions about the situation.
I find it interesting how theres an ele-ment of arm-twisting to their statements: The teachers need our support because theyre fighting for our childrens educa-tion... or: Send those blasted teachers back to work, give me their salary, Id take it...and the two months off in the summer to boot!
Theres no middle ground. Theres nobody saying, Does anybody feel the teachers are being shafted by the govern-ment or should they really be content with what theyve got? Does anybody have any feelings on this? Im having a
hard time knowing just what to think.No seeing both sides of the situation
or being undecided because there may be valid points in either camp.
Nope, yer either fer us or agin us. Is our education system a bleeding
mess? Well, no actually. Our education system is actually pretty good. Its not the best but its far from the worst. In fact, according to one website, Educate Every Child on the Planet, Canada has the ninth best educational system on the planet (seventh in another ranking). Ninth. Now, of course, thats a national average, given that Canada has 13 edu-cational jurisdictions. Could it be better? Yes, of course it could be better. Should we be content with ninth? Well, no of course not. But the world isnt going to end.
So, what thoughts do I have about the strike? First of all, full disclosure, my kids have been and are home-schooled (but through the provincial education system, so we are affected by the strike).
But what occurs to me with the strike is how labour strife only seems to affect our public institutions these days. Maybe its because we now no longer have a unionized major employer (the pulp and paper mill) but it seems like the only people battling it out on picket lines are public sector employees. Private sec-tor workers have long had to deal with market realities and settle for a lot less.
Public sector workers still have the ability to wield the walk out stick to further their aims. But they lose a lot on the moral ground if they strike. Its not just shut down the mill and deprive
the employer of income. Teacher strikes threaten a students educational year.
Its another one of those situations where we need to know how much is enough? How much does a quality educational system cost? And if that is important to us, then we need to tell government to buck up. If it isnt, if keeping our taxes down to a certain level is more important, then quit complain-ing about the poor education system we have. You get what you pay for.
The big problem with this is, whether a settlement is negotiated or imposed, either way, were probably going to have to go through this again.
The biggest failing of our education system is the F we get for our inability to run our schools without educators and administrators butting heads regularly.

The record shows (both written and video recorded) that Councillor Mennie followed the lead of both Councillor Adams and Moglove, over the past two terms. Rarely did he show any independence from their stands, remaining a part of the 4 side, of a one-sided vote. His resignation would change that dynamic, with the chance of a 3-3 vote to happen, more often than not, a vote that could be broken by the mayor and land in a direction opposite of what Adams and Moglove would want, in their continued drive for personal power and influence.
It is an election year and there is, in fact, very little that will be accomplished in the next five months that would really make much of a difference, other than leaving a mess or a legacy for the next coun-cil. Regardless, the requirement for Ryan Mennie to remain on council is nil, as his participation offers no real return on our taxpayer investment.
If you really have the interest of this community, at your heart, Mr. Mennie, do the right and honourable thing and resign your seat.
Sean SmithCampbell River
I cant believe that Ryan Mennie is moving to Alberta but saying hell stay on council until Novem-ber. Why? Leave that position vacant, Im sure that its a real possibility.
The decisions that this council makes will affect this community, not Alberta.
It may be legal, but certainly not ethical. He should resign now and save the taxpayers over $10,000 for him to phone it in from Alberta.

Council: The honourable thing
Kristen DouglasCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Campbell River councillors may soon have to report all of their council-related expenses online for everyone to see, but not everyone on council is on board.
The initiative comes from Coun. Andy Adams who would like to see council follow the provincial governments lead.
Starting this fall, B.C. MLAs will have to post all of their expense receipts on a public government website which will provide an in-depth, item by
item list. Adams said Campbell River councillors should do the same, as the citys finance staff already keep records of each councillors expenses and its just a matter of uploading them online. But Mayor Wal-ter Jakeway disagrees and said that it will take up too much of staff s time.
Its just busy work, said Jakeway, who was the only member of council to oppose publishing councils expense accounts. Were trying to cut down on staff work and the total (expenses) is peanuts.
Adams said the information is
already there and at last weeks council meeting he put forward a motion directing city staff to investigate what the province is doing and report back on the possibility of the city doing the same.
Councillors would have to publish their expenses for remuneration, food, travel, accommodation, etc. including expenses for council-related assignments and affiliations such as: Strathcona Regional District, Comox Strathcona Regional Solid Waste Com-mittee, Comox Strathcona Regional Hospital Board, Van-
couver Island Regional Library Board and other annual municipal conferences such as the Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal Communi-ties, the Union of BC Munici-palities and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.
A provincial all-party com-mittee voted in May to publish itemized MLA expenses in the interest of full disclosure to B.C. taxpayers.
B.C. Finance Minister Mike De Jong said last month there needs to be more transparency when it comes to MLAs spend-ing public money.
Mayor opposes councillors reporting expenses
Search fails to find crab boat skipper
After two days of searching neither the captain or his crab boat were found.
The 48-year-old Comox Valley skipper is presumed drowned and the 28-foot aluminum vessel is still missing after it
overturned near Kelsey Bay last Thursday night.
A 32-year-old Comox Valley man, who served as the deckhand, survived the sinking. Sayward RCMP say he was wearing a personal floatation device and was able to swim to shore. Unfortunately, it is believed the captain was not
wearing a lifejacket when the boat overturned rough water sometime around 9 p.m.
The deckhand swam to the shore at nearby Brazeau Bay and made it a residence where emergency services were called around 10 a.m.
Mounties were joined by Coast Guard, ambulance, volunteer
searchers and local citizens who looked in vain for the missing captain.
The search resumed Friday morning and was called off on Saturday. Some debris, believed to be from the boat, was found in the water.
The skippers name was not released.

If it's hot, your pet may be in trouble! During warm weather pet guardians must take precautions against the danger of heat exhaustion and heatstroke for their pets. The temperature in a parked car, even in the shade with the windows partly open, can rapidly reach a level that will seriously harm or even kill your pet. Leaving you pet in a car with the air conditioning on is also taking a risk as many pets have died as the result of a faulty air-conditioning system.
If you see a dog in a vehicle on a warm or humid day who you believe may be in trouble, ask nearby stores to page customers. If the dog is in distress call our Animal Cruelty Hotlineat 1(855)6BCSPCA(1-855-622-7722).The call centre is open seven days per week: Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. If it is an animal emergency outside of these hours, please contact your local police department, RCMP or animal control immediately.
Dogs (and cats) cool themselves by panting and by releasing heat through their paws. On summer days the air and upholstery in your vehicle can heat up to high temperatures that make it impossible for pets to cool themselves. Your dog will be more comfortable if left at home.
Symptoms of heatstroke Exaggerated panting (or the sudden stopping of panting); rapid or erratic pulse; salivation; anxious or staring expression; weakness and muscle tremors;
lack of coordination; tongue and lips
red (which may eventually turn bluish in colour);
convulsions or vomiting;
collapse, coma and death.
Emergency treatment for dogsIf your dog shows symptoms of heatstroke follow these instructions: Immediately move the animal to a cool, shady place. Wet the dog with cool water. Fan vigorously to
promote evaporation. This process will cool the blood, which reduces the dog's
core temperature. Do not apply ice. This
constricts blood flow which will inhibit cooling.
Allow the dog to drink some cool water.
Take the dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible for further treatment.
Veterinarians may apply supportive measures such as intravenous fluids to rehydrate the animal and oxygen to prevent brain damage.

The lot of a reptile captured or bred for the pet-store trade is grim. The trip from the breeder or dealer is typically cramped and unsanitary, and many reptiles do not survive it. Those who do will probably have health problems that dont show up until months later.
Unfortunately, reptiles are perceived as requiring minimal care rather than specialized care, so theyre big business.
Snakes Depending on the variety, snakes can live for decades and grow to lengths in excess of 5 feet. They require at least a 30-gallon tank, frequent checkups, and care by a veterinarian who specializes in reptiles. Fresh water and a spotless environment must be provided at all times. Most are carnivorous. They are susceptible to a variety of parasites as well as blister disease, respiratory and digestive disorders, and mouth rot. Strictly controlled daytime and nighttime temperatures and the careful application of pesticides are required in order to guard against mite infestations.
Iguanas Green iguanas are some
of the most frequently abandoned companion animals, likely
because people find out too late what is required to
care for them. A properly cared-for iguana can
live for more than 20 years and
grow to be more than 6 feet long. The enclosure for a full-grown iguana should be at least 18 feet long, humidified, and maintained at a particular temperature with specific timetables for darkness and ultraviolet light. Common
problems for captive iguanas are metabolic bone disease from calcium deficiency, mouth rot, respiratory disease, abscesses, and ulcers. Wild iguanas do not suffer from any of these illnesses. Theyre also strict vegans, limited to a very specific range of greens and fruits. Costs for food, an enclosure, lighting, and vet bills can total hundreds of dollars per year. It takes about a year of daily interaction to socialize an iguana, and even then, sexually mature males will
be very aggressive six months out of the year
if they see their own reflections or if confronted with
other iguanas.
Geckos People who would never take on the commitment of a 6-foot iguana might be interested in geckos. Sadly, these are very popular reptiles in pet stores. These
small, frail-looking lizards can often live up to 30 years and require a very particular environment without the slightest variance in temperature. They feed on insects and baby mice. Although wild geckos are found throughout temperate and tropical regions of the world, most of the ones offered for sale are captive-bred.
Turtles In contrast, most of the North American species of turtles available in pet stores have been taken from their natural habitats. All other species are probably captive bredmost likely in Louisiana, which has nearly 60 farms that exported 11 million turtles in 2000. Since parasites, bacteria, and fungi prey on weak or stressed turtles, the health of a store-bought turtle is questionable. Just like any other reptile, a turtles needs are very specific: thermostatically controlled temperatures, enough water to swim in, a large housing area, and a varied diet. The average lifespan of an aquatic turtle is 25 years, while a land tortoise could outlive you.
Caution There is a health risk associated with owning any reptile. Seventy thousand people in the U.S. contract salmonellosis from direct or indirect contact with reptiles and amphibians every year. Children, pregnant women, and people with compromised immune systems are particularly at
risk of serious illness or death. If you or anyone close to you is in one of these categories, rethink bringing a reptile into your homeeven healthy-looking animals may be carrying the disease. Many reptiles are brought into the country with little or no inspection or quarantine.
Adoption Welcoming a reptile into your home means a commitment of time, space, and money. Youll need to provide the right temperature and humidity and specific light/dark cycles that may not coincide with your own or be convenient to you. Backup power is necessary to keep a constant temperature in the event of
a power failure. It is a harsh fact that
most reptiles are
carnivoresdo you really want your freezer full of dead animals? In all, costs for food, an enclosure, lighting, and vet bills can total hundreds of dollars per year. Purchasing a reptile caught in his or her natural
habitat encourages the removal of wildlife from delicate ecosystems. Buying captive-bred animals only encourages breeders to replenish their stock. If you must have a reptile as a companion animal, please consider adopting one from a local shelter or rescue group.
