Hi. Thank you, and good morning everybody.
George L. Chapman - Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Hi, Rich.
Richard Anderson - BMO Capital Markets
I guess the... just first, you mentioned the shadow pipeline of $3 billion. Did you mention? and I might have missed this, like what’s sort of the source of that? Where is all that coming from? Why is it off market to you?

Correct. And I would expect that to? over the next three to five years to? at least in the SNF area to continue to go down as we do more combination facilities and frankly do a few more standalone SNFs. But that's sporadic, so you have to look at it over a longer period.
Richard Anderson - BMO Capital Markets
I guess that was the question. I mean where do you see those percentages going, but I guess clearly it's a push downward but...?
