[R] extract value from mer object ?

[Maas James Dr (MED)]

What is the easiest way to extract a value from a 'mer' object from glmer?  The first I need is the 
trtpair Std.Dev.   which in this case is 0.17542?

I've managed to get the fixed effects numbers from 
summary(fednmaout)@coeffs

but no luck with the Random effects stuff.

TIA

Jim
