would precipitate a crisis worse than the one we just went through. >> the implications of that for a financial system, for our fiscal policy, for our economy would be catastrophic. >> reporter: what would actually happen? it's like defaulting on your home mortgage. no one would loan you any more money without a much higher interest payment, and the u.s. government borrows a lot of money. bankers and economists say that could stop the recovery dead in its tracks. >> that would create so much uncertainty. interest rates are going to rise. financial markets are going to be very worried. it's the uncertainty that is going to drive people crazy. >> reporter: republicans say the vote on the debt ceiling won't be free. they want either a spending cap or some other kind of structural change that restricts federal spending before they give the president the approval to increase the debt ceiling. david kerley, abc news, washington. and turning now to overseas, the latest from libya.

the rebels appear to have gained ground after nato air strikes drove gadhafi forces out of a strategically important crossroads in the eastern part of the country. the roads leading away from ajdabiya were littered with destroyed tanks, guns and vehicles thanks to all that nato firepower. on the diplomatic front, a top delegation of african leaders is meeting with the rebels today to talk about terms of a cease-fire. there are reports that gadhafi may have already agreed to a peace deal but the libyan leader is so un unpredictable, it's hard to say for sure. jeffrey kofman reports now from tripoli. >> reporter: this is the compound where moammar gadhafi lives in the heart of tripoli. as you can see behind me there are thousands of young libyans keeping him company to protect him from nato bombs. but the story on sunday, the visit of five leaders from the african union, five presidents of african nation, including jacob zuma, the president of south africa he emerged late

sunday night to say that moammar gadhafi and his leadership have, in principle, accepted a road map towards peace. this is a huge surprise and will be astonishing if it's true. there is reason to be skeptical but president zhuma said he was optimistic. that road map includes an immediate and verifiable cease-fire allowing humanitarian aid in libya and ultimately a transition towards a new government and democracy in libya. we've not heard from gadhafi himself. but if this, in fact, is the case, this is a major breakthrough, but there is reason to be extremely cautious despite this optimism. jeffrey kofman, abc news, tripoli. >> maybe some light at the end of the tunnel in all that. all right. in augusta, georgia, the final round of the masters golf championship was a thriller thanks in no small part to tiger woods. he started out seven strokes off the lead but wiped out that deficit with a blistering front nine. it was the old tiger out there, fist pumps and all, but he just couldn't hang on to it and actually finished with a share of fourth place just like last

year. >> good start on the front nine and the back nine didn't putt well. and i hit one loose iron there at 13. >> all week you preached patience. at what point did you say we got to turn the patience around? >> no, absolutely not, just still say the same. it's shot for shot. this golf course baits you into doing that. you can get aggressive and lose it very similar to what i think rory is doing out there. that can happen out here very easily. it doesn't take much. just one shot here or there and you can go the other way. >> reporter: and in the end the victory actually went to 26-year-old south african charl schwartzel. he birdied his last four holes to break clear of a pack of eight who each had a shot at the lead in the final round. he finished with a two-stroke margin earning him his first ever green jacket. >> how about that? young guy there. pretty good. great. good to see tiger doing well but then he has the stamina to hang in there and some of the other golfers don't have that.

it looked like he a shot. >> it was vintage of old tiger, which is kind of cool. >> very true. this is a story that forever changes the way i think about the phrase "here comes the bride." >> make that "brides." yes. hundreds of women braved the cold and the rain to storm filene's basement in chicago in search of a discounted wedding dress. some brides stood in line all night long waiting for the store to open. >> yeah, those are smart ladies. spending all the money on the dress is so overrated. it spends the rest of its life in a closet. you know? get it as a bargain. the madness can be contributed to $5,000 dresses marked down to like $250. >> that's not a bad deal. >> no, i should have done that. take it from me, get the cheap dress. get the cheap dress. >> money better spent on food and drink. >> there you go. >> but that's just a guy speaking. more "world news now" coming up. p. mud? yeah, dirt? do you think the two of us will ever

nice looking times square. >> nice look at times square. a couple people, i'm sure, maybe just coming home for the evening as we're getting into work. >> yes. >> well, you know any regular viewer knows that we make plenty of references to drinking here on the show but there's no joke in our next story. >> it actually involves a new british study that says drinking more than a small amount of alcohol every day puts you at an elevated risk of cancer. lon that gordon of the bbc has details. >> we're going to discuss your mammogram. >> reporter: for the last nine months lisa clinch has been receiving treatment for breast cancer. she's had radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery. it's not clear what caused her illness. she's lived healthily and exercised regularly and drunk in moderation. >> i just class myself as a social drinker. just have a few glasses of wine on a friday or a saturday night. nothing really in the week. when i was younger, perhaps, when i was at university, it was probably a bit more than that but in recent years i've been very, very health conscious and i've done a lot in terms of

keeping myself fit and being conscious of what i do, eat and drink. >> reporter: the link between excessive drinking and cancer is well documented. but this research goes much further. the guidelines are that a man should drink no more than three to four units daily, that's about a pint and a half of beer or a couple of glasses of wine. for a woman it's no more than two to three units daily. that's around two small glasses of wine. the researchers looked specifically at cancers related to alcohol consumption and they found the more you drink, the greater risk with 4% of these types of cancers in women and 18% in men linked to drinking above the daily recommended limits. the reasons for getting cancer are complex. diet, weight, smoking and other factors may all play a part. so why would alcohol also act as a trigger? >> you take alcohol in your body and that's then broken down by your liver and then the breakdown product of that can

actually cause the cancer so it's broken down into chemicals that we know in other circumstances actually cause cancer and damage the building blocks of the cells. >> reporter: plenty of us may have been enjoying a drink in the summer sunshine, but this research shows that staying within safe limits, drinking sensibly, really could reduce our chance of getting cancer. lorna gordon bbc news, liverpool. >> that's a study to pay attention to. it's not a small study. 400,000 people, as you heard. that's not a small group, that's a lot of folks. >> sometimes you hear it can be a little bit good for you on a daily basis. >> like red wine is good for your heart. >> like a pina colada or whatever you had on vacation. >> no, none of that. no comment. when we come back, the video games you need to see to believe. >> we check out the hottest 3-d games out there right now that are bringing the action to life. you're watching "world news now." >> so what did you drink?

ews now."

chances are you've seen a 3-d movie, of course, at the these, and it seems every 3-d special version. special 3-d version. >> and 3-d video games are a whole other story. they've not gone mainstream but sony is trying to do something about that. >> our tech contributor daniel sieberg checked out some of the differences. >> reporter: with the baseball regular season under way, we decided that mlb 11 would be a good fit to start our playstation 3 3-d tour. it's been since little league that i played baseball so that's a souvenir right there. so maybe i'm more suited to t-ball but it was fun to get that immersive experience. it took some getting used to. for my money it was a better fit

with sony's socom 4 fighting game. >> throw a grenade at him. >> you can see, you have so you can see you have one-to-one controls with the controller. as you move in and out of the screen you're able to control the radical -- >> reporter: and up and down and the controller. >> absolutely. the controller itself helps to control the reloading of the gun, movements within it. >> reporter: and those are just 2 of the more than 30 3-d titles expected from sony this year. of course, you need a 3-d enabled tv and those glasses. one of the knocks against them is the limited content. and video games might change that. maybe. what will it take for more wide adoption of 3-d technology in the living room? i mean, is gaming going to be a real driving force for that, do you think? >> we think that gaming is the driving force for 3-d. i mean when you look at the playstation 3, we are the only solution in the living room that can deliver on a 3-d and

blu-ray and it's all an experience inside one box. >> reporter: sony also recently announced cars 2, the video game which is 3-d. and plenty more titles are on the way. how do you decide which games deserve the 3-d experience? >> it's a development decision. so it's not necessarily deserve. i think basically our development communities are encouraged to take a look at all the technology available and how do they make that immersive experience that's really going to draw you in. 3-d being one of the tools to do it. and the new playstation being something we can incorporate as well. and so i think it's really kind of the decision of the development team. but what we've seen is the uptake throughout with over 30 titles coming this year. in 3-d that it's really been embraced by the development community. >> reporter: microsoft has a handful of xbox 360 games available in 3-d games but it's unclear how invested they are on that.

nintendo has a 3-d handheld device that doesn't need the glasses. overall the glasses can be a stumbling block although gamers have become used to accessories and peripherals. tell me about the glasses. i mean that's obviously still part of the experience but maybe one day not necessarily. >> it could be. so right now they're shutter technology glasses and essentially what we're doing is taking the game screen, if you will, and dividing it. and then, the shutter glasses are providing a bit of an effect here that allow the screens to be put back together and add depth. >> reporter: indeed, 3-d video games could help push the sales of 3-d tvs and sony argues the 3-d enhances that experience but there are still concerns over prolonged exposure to 3-d. some people just can't get past those glasses. it is debatable whether the 3-d makes the games any better. that said, it is an immersive and fun experience. rob and peggy, back to you. >> all right. very cool stuff. >> yeah. >> well hot topic coming up next. one everyone is talking about. >> especially in our newsroom. yeah. >> the "american idol"

in fact, most of the country is waking up to anything but spring fever today. severe weather is expected across the country this after floods and funnel clouds crushed the nation's heartland over the weekend. we'll take to you the disaster zone. take a look at that footage there. >> crazy pictures. >> pretty incredible. and on top of that, possible gop presidential candidate, donald trump is now ramping up the rhetoric calling into question president obama's birth certificate. the white house reacts. what they really think about the donald's claims and his chances of winning the white house come 2012. >> certainly good at getting the attention. >> oh, he likes that. also, the royal wedding guest list has now been revealed. rob, of course, top of the list. >> yes. >> we're going to take a look at the big and not-so-big names that made the cut for the social event of the year. >> how many days away? it's the 29th, right? >> the 29th. today's the 11th. getting pretty close. >> thank you, thank you, thank you. but before all that, 20 states, nearly half the country felt the wrath of mother nature this weekend. there were tons of fierce storm, tornado, fires and floods.

>> and while 40 million people are very glad to have survived the worst, millions are in harm's way this morning. here's barbara pinto. >> reporter: terror rained from the skies in iowa. >> get back! >> reporter: at least 11 twisters were spotted. one took direct aim at mapleton, iowa. >> we kind of hid up in the house. but we had blankets and stuff over our head and over our body and stuff so we didn't get glass. >> reporter: the tornado, a quarter of a mile wide, ripped through this small town flattening more than 100 homes, leaving more than half of mapleton in ruins. >> i think we should have had fatalities and didn't so i guess i believe in the good lord and he saved this town. >> reporter: in west texas, it's wind whipping grass fires. this one burned out of control for the fourth straight day. 2,500 acres now scorched along with at least 20 homes. >> it could be one of the worst grass fires in the state for a number of years. >> reporter: in north dakota, the problem is water.

near fargo where the swollen red river crested, they're using sandbags, clay levees, even plywood to hold back the water from five rivers, all now running out of their banks. in some places it is not enough. which house is hers? >> the last one on the end. >> reporter: we found jo ellen harris visiting from south carolina, standing at the edge of the water that swallowed her sister's neighborhood. >> i was thinking, oh, my friends back at work would never believe this. >> reporter: this is your place? >> this is my place, yes. >> reporter: this is how rick zeist and hi neighbors on west 15th avenue get home. >> it was probably -- i thought that was the worst one before this one hit. >> reporter: their homes are now islanded surrounded by sandbags and high anxiety. how have the past few days been for you guys? >> very stressful. the stress level is very high. i think a lot of headaches and someaches. >> reporter: adding to those headaches, all of this rain.

in this neighborhood, it could take weeks for all of the water to recede. barbara pinto, abc news, west fargo. >> we were talking about baseball-sized hail. as you heard about that, a lot of folks saw hailstones this big. can you imagine what that would do to your house, your car -- >> in iowa they took a picture side by side. >> the exact size of the baseball. >> scary. >> incredible. well that huge front that unleashed the tornados in iowa is now moving east this morning, in fact, the entire eastern third of the country is now in the line of fire. >> coming in our direction. that's right. we turn to accuweather's adrienne veilleux who joins us now with details. good morning, adrienne. >> thank you, rob and peggy, and we're continuing to track a potent cold front across the nation's heartland extending from the u.p. of michigan the whole way down into texas and this storm system does have a history of producing tornadoes across the state of wisconsin. we did see a couple of reports on sunday night, however, the threat of tornadoes across the upper midwest is diminishing as this is running into some cooler air across the great lakes. hail and gusty winds does

continue to be a threat especially into these early morning hours. threat for tornados actually going to be standing a little further south from indianapolis down into springfield, missouri, and we are going to continue to track this system as we head through these early morning hours and a line of storms does extend all the way down to texas and very warm air is going to continue to fuel these storms as we get through the rest of the day hitting a high of around 71 degrees today in memphis and the storm system will continue to track further eastward so we're looking at storms from western pennsylvania down into louisiana. peggy and rob, back to you. >> all right, thanks a lot, adrienne. we turn now to overseas to libya where a cease-fire may be now in the works. there are reports this morning that moammar gadhafi has agreed to talk with those rebels. top african leaders say they worked out the deal. they are now talking to the rebels to see if they'll agree. but some officials remain skeptical given gadhafi's pattern of unpredictable behavior. and the cease-fire reports

come just hours after punishing air strikes by nato forces in the eastern part of the country. terry moran reports. >> reporter: ajdabiya is a ghost town. nearly every civilian has fled. for two days, a pitched battle raged here. rebels fought desperately as forces loyal to moammar gadhafi attacked trying to seize this strategically crucial crossroads in the east of libya. we hear shelling right now. what is that shelling? "we are clearing the area of gadhafi's troops," a top field commander tells me but ajdabiya was not cleared, as we found out. a firefight turned us around as we made our way down the main road. the fight for the city has been fierce. a street fight, one general called it. rebels taking up positions along the main roads like this vehicle here. gadhafi's forces coming in and blasting them. the decisive moment, nato air strikes, hitting gadhafi's forces forcing them back out of town. so it was nato once again that

won the day for the rebels and that's the story of this war. without nato the rebels would lose and even with the air strikes, they are not strong enough to overthrow gadhafi. a young solder in gadhafi's army, hardly more than a boy, a straggler, he tried to take his own life when surrounded and failed. this man came to attack your town? >> yes. >> and yet you're saving his life? >> we have to. he's a human being. >> reporter: a moment of basic human decency amidst the indecency of the libyan civil war. terry moran, abc news, ajdabiya, libya. now turning to politics and the budget showdown in washington. president obama will lay out his plans to reduce the federal deficit later this week. his top advisers say medicaid and medicare will be the two programs to face cuts. in the meantime congress will officially vote this week on that last-minute deal struck on friday that prevented a government shutdown. republicans are slamming the

president's plan to cut the deficit saying that he's not doing enough. one voice joining that fray, the donald. yes, business tycoon donald trump is weighing in on it all as he weighs his own run for president in 2012. he's even questioned the president's citizenship in the recent weeks but the white house doesn't seem to be too concerned about that. one senior adviser, david plouffe, made clear on abc's "this week." >> i saw donald trump rising in some polls and given his behavior and spectacle the last couple of week i hope he keeps rising. week, i hope he keeps on rising. there's zero chance that donald trump would ever be hired by to run this country. there may be a small part of the country that believes these things but mainstream americans think it's a sideshow. >> all right. donald won't take that sitting down. for his part he says he told new york's "daily news" i know for a fact i'm the only candidate they're concerned with. >> humble man, that donald. >> yes and not shy about the press.

>> not at all. well, a major deal is now off the table on wall street. the new york stock exchange has turned down an $11 billion bid from nasdaq to buy the company. the company says it will stick with a plan to be bought by a german exchange operator for about $10 billion. analysts say the nasdaq deal would have meant more people would lose their jobs. there were also, i should say, antitrust concerns. one of our favorite stories of the day. life is a beach, at least for this black bear. >> check out this little guy. he was spotted roaming around a virginia beach neighborhood on friday and a public safety warning was issued until he turned up in this tree. the sight gathered quite a crowd. in fact a biologist was called in to tranquilize the little guy. he was lowered from the tree in a harness very safely. turns out he's an adolescent male bear and experts theorize his mom probably booted him out. probably misbehaving. go off on your own if you're so smart. >> these teenage bears these days. no respect. the funny part of the story is

the guy whose yard it was in didn't know it was his yard until he saw it on tv and he was like, wait a minute. and he looked up and he came face-to-face with the bear when he looked out of his window. >> the bear is okay. >> yes, the bear is fine. >> don't worry. >> more "world news now" after the break. the break. you know there are germs on every surface in your mouth. but did you know those same germs can build up and form a resilient layer called biofilm? biofilm germs are strong enough to survive daily brushing. thankfully there's listerine® antiseptic. its triple-action formula goes deep to penetrate biofilm, kill germs and protect your mouth for up to 12 hours. aaaahhhh...

>> reporter: the ballet of blame. waltzing towards the precipice and back again. >> get it passed and avert a shutdown. >> reporter: a dance till midnight. >> until senate democrats get serious. >> reporter: where the music finally stopped just in time. >> we didn't do it at this late hour for drama. >> reporter: oh, but it was a drama that only proved how difficult cutting budgets can really be. consider this, while the republicans can now take credit for forcing the largest budget cut in history, compared to what is spent apple piewise on social security, medicare, medicaid and defense, this budget cut of $38.5 billion is nearly invisible, because trillions is what republicans are now talking about aiming to save, such as congressman paul ryan. listen to him. >> we propose to cut $6.2 trillion in spending over the next ten years from the president's budget. >> reporter: but look at what

this week confirmed yet again. these new tea party members of congress sworn in only this past january, they're okay with choosing brutal battles over compromise. see this man, mike pence, along with like-minded colleagues he greatly complicated boehner's effort to avoid shutting down the government by insisting that the budget cuts specifically take money away from planned parenthood, a group that supports the right to abortion which pence opposes. >> liberals in the senate would rather shut the government down so they can continue to borrow money from china to fund the largest abortion provider in america. >> reporter: it let the democrats say things like this -- >> they can shut down america's government over women's access to health care. if that sounds ridiculous, it's because it is ridiculous. >> reporter: in the end, the deal did not cut planned parenthood's funding, but it forced a vote to come up on the issue later. ♪

so the government shutdown, good that it didn't happen. good that our troops will be paid and that our parks will stay open and that tourists in washington can enjoy museums along with the ducks. but believe this, the orchestra is only warming up, and the next round won't feel like a dance at all. john donvan, abc news, washington. >> what a great story. >> a dance it is. >> yes, indeed. i think a lot of us are going to be hearing about the debt ceiling. this is sort of going to become part of the national vernacular. let's define exactly what it is. the legal limit of the debt ceiling is $14.3 trillion which is an astonishing amount. >> it is. >> they're making it more. probably puts most people's credit card debt in check. >> in perspective, no kidding. when we come back we'll talk about "the skinny." pia toscano, a little bit more after she was shockingly booted off "american idol." but is she getting the last laugh? >> and will the cast of "jersey shore" return for another season

of fun in the sun? >> you want them to. >> oh, yes. you're watching "world news now." shore" return? shore return? we'll be back.

♪ skinny so skinny ♪ and time now for "the skinny." everyone, we've got some juicy stuff going on today, but, of course, a lot of people are talking about the untimely departure of pia toscano from "american idol." >> yeah she didn't die. she just got booted off the show. >> yeah, she's alive and well. in fact, she's doing so well she just landed herself a recording contract so she's saying, see you later, "american idol." she's already landed herself a big, juicy deal but still people were really shocked by this elimination. she ended up getting booted out in ninth place. even tom hanks tweeted -- what the heck happened to pia? what's going on. >> sometimes too you don't have to win "american idol" to go on to a big star. jennifer hudson. they may have kicked her off but she already has everything working really fast behind the scenes to knock that album out and she's already in the studio and they're like working hard

core to get that album out so she'll be fine. >> she'll be doing just fine. "jersey shore," i know people love to hate them "jersey shore" and those kids. the politicians think they're bad for jersey and all this. well, you know what, that's not hurt the ratings and hasn't stopped the show from generating a lot of money so much so that according to "entertainment weekly," they'll be back for season four which will be shot in italy, and they'll each be making at least $100,000 an episode for a 13-episode season. making well over a million dollars on top of all they get for their books and products and speaking engagements. i think snooki just spoke at rutgers university. $35,000. >> yeah. >> i don't know what she did. wasn't like an astrophysics lecture. why waste time going to college. just get a reality show. >> that's the state of american celebrity, folks. >> and that's snooki with the bump-it. >> yeah. also, we're talking a little bit about "the real housewives of d.c." some people didn't like the cast of characters but, of course

the salahi ss made a lot of news. this is the only real housewife series to never get renewed. so basically they just said people were not into them. the salahis, a whole bag of crazy. so that cast is out. >> so new york, atlanta -- >> and my girlfriend got me wrapped up in this show and d.c. was kind of boring. >> it's my guilty pleasure. i even like the d.c. one. it's my guilty pleasure. it's my one brainless tv show. >> there you go. charlie sheen. >> we've had a sheen-free show while you were gone and we didn't talk about him much but this is sort of breaking news. >> but you wanted to bring it back here because he's obviously doing his tour. he was here in new york. he did two shows and he got booed off the stage on friday then he was back on sunday and he got a standing ovation. made a little headway. at this point he's kind of begging for his job back and he's kind of invited chuck lorre, the creator of "two and a

half men," to a show saying look let's get this back in action. so the tone of the show is changing. look, let's get this back. >> that's big news for him. >> but he's not winning on that stage. >> no.

here's what to watch on abc news. after meeting with moammar gadhafi, the south african president jacob zuma will meet with rebel leaders in an attempt to build a road map for peace in libya. one month ago today the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit japan killing as much as 25,000. moments of silence are expected to be observed today throughout the country. and beginning today france will make it illegal for women to cover their faces, the controversial law is aimed at muslim women who wear burqas in public. and finally this half hour we're expecting to have one final appearance from prince william and kate middleton, until their wedding day. >> we're under three weeks to the big day and our lama hasan has been learning more about who exactly is on the royal guest list. [ bell tolling ]

>> reporter: at the wedding not one, not two, but four of william's ex-girlfriends will be there and a total of two of kate's exes. also on the much coveted list movie director guy ritchie who will have to leave his girlfriend at home because his invite doesn't have a plus one. kate's sister and maid of honor pippa will be bringing her handsome businessman boyfriend to the wedding. as all the last-minute preparations are taking place, william and kate are all set for their last public appearance before they tie the knot. >> what it represents is basically kate middleton's last public appearance before the royal wedding. the next time we see her she'll be emerging from her rolls-royce and stepping into westminster abbey with 2 billion people watching her. >> reporter: so no pressure then. can you imagine the decisions kate has to make right now like what will she be wearing in her hair? a dilemma every bride goes through. well, most brides. >> a huge selection of tiaras

belonging to the queen, and she has got the choice that no other girl in the world would have on her wedding day. >> reporter: feast your eyes on these, gals. diamonds, pearls and gold. oh, to be a princess. so is it going to be great british roses that will adorn kate's long mane or a grand old tiara? >> the inside scoop is that camilla is very keen that she will wear a tiara and that she is toying with the idea of wearing flowers instead. >> reporter: or maybe she'll go down the sarah ferguson route. >> sarah ferguson did a rather extraordinary thing of wearing flowers into the church and then when she came out, she took off the flowers and she was wearing a tiara underneath. given what happened to her marriage, i think it's unlikely that kate will imitate that rather ingenious trick. >> no matter what, i'm excited. i think the rest of the world is. let's just get a look at her. let's see what she's wearing and what she has on her head. that will be fun to see. >> that's the big moment, the

dress and all that. the guest list is coming out. former nannies, former aides so é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"é"
