Reviews of this property
Emanuele was very kind in every way; being precise and always quick to respond, and even setting up a baby bed for our toddler. The apartment was so clean, and the air condition saved us northerners from the heat wave we experienced. We had every attraction close by, or easy to reach by public transport from stops nearby. I have seen someone being bothered by the traffic from Via Po, but that was no problem for us at all.
PS: The elevator is a bit narrow for a trolly, so kids sleeping has to be well timed! : )
Apartment excellent, comfortable in every sense! The owner, Emanuele, helpful and considerate. We had a great time !!!!!
Appartamento ottimo, confortevole in tutti i sensi! Il padrone di casa, Emanuele , disponibile e preciso. Noi siamo stati benissimo !!!!!
Apartment fantastic !!! excellent as the location in which it is located, close to almost all the major points of interest. Dear landlord.
Appartamento fantastico !!!come eccellente la posizione in cui si trova,praticamente vicino a tutte i maggiori luoghi di interesse. Gentile il padrone di casa.
Perfect apartment is not heartwarming indeed perhaps always find them so equipped. Hosts courteous, hospitable and discreet.
Great location.
Appartamento perfetto non mancava nulla anzi magari trovarli sempre cosi accessoriati. Padroni di casa cortesi, ospitali e discreti.
Posizione ottima.
We spent nine days in the apartment Emanuele and we can not say we have the same complaints except that the bedroom overlooking Via Po is a bit noisy, though the windows sound-proof room. The location is perfect to see the city, to hand most of the sites. The apartment has everything you need and also a good collection of comics and music. Site very, very advisable if you sleep like a log in the room facing the street.
Hemos pasado nueve días en el apartamento de Emanuele y no podemos decir que tengamos quejas del mismo excepto que el dormitorio que da a Via Po es un poco ruidoso, a pesar de los cristales que insonorizan la habitación. La localización es perfecta para ver la ciudad, a mano de la mayoría de los sitios. El apartamento dispone de todo lo que necesites y además una buena colección de comics y música. Sitio muy , pero que muy recomendable si duermes como un tronco en el cuarto de da a la calle.
Emanuele was an excellent host. The house is in conditions and great location, beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped. The house is bigger than it looks in the photos. The fully recommend.
Emanuele ha sido un excelente anfitrión. La casa está en unas condiciones y una ubicación estupenda, las camas son muy cómodas y la cocina está muy bien equipada. La casa es más grande de lo que parece en las fotos. La recomiendo totalmente.
We attended his wife properly, very good stay in the apartment Emanuele in a beautiful city like Turin, apartment on the fourth floor with elevator and very central in Via Po. next to all the cafes, shops and restaurants and just 1 km. Valentino Park for sports, very well insulated for how central it is.
We were three people and I have to say we were at home and not spend any cold, heating is great, has all the utensils for cooking, very well equipped and if you know how to play the piano, having one in the lounge. Ultimately has everything to spend some wonderful days in such a beautiful city like Torino.
We hope to return soon to the apartment Emanuele Torino
The best: The whole apartment as a whole (only the shower a bit small)
Worst: the apartment nothing, if you are driving is parkímetro area and parking will cost.
Nos atendió su esposa correctamente, muy buena estancia en el apartamento de Emanuele en una bonita ciudad como Turín, apartamento en una cuarta planta con ascensor y muy céntrico en Via Po. al lado de todos los cafés, tiendas y restaurantes y a apenas a 1Km. del Parque Valentino para hacer deporte, muy bien insonorizada para lo céntrico qué está.
Estuvimos tres personas y tengo que decir que estábamos como en casa, no pasamos nada de frío, la calefacción es estupenda, tiene todos los utensilios para cocinar, muy bien equipada y si sabes tocar el piano, tienen uno en el salón. En definitiva tiene todo para pasar unos días espléndidos en una ciudad tan bonita como Torino.
Esperamos volver pronto al apartamento de Emanuele y a Torino
Lo mejor : Todo el apartamento en su totalidad, (solo la ducha un poco pequeña)
Lo peor : Del apartamento nada, si vas en coche, es zona con parkímetro y te costará aparcar.
Bright and modern apartment, very clean and user-friendly. The mattress on the double bed upstairs was lovely and firm. The only feedback would be a kettle or electric jug to boil water, some hand soap and a spare toilet paper roll would all have been handy. But it did not detract from our stay in the apartment, which is close to the Mole Antonelliana and other Turin attractions. Also, thanks Emanuele for the recommendation of Dual for pizza - it was delicious and we got a free beer while we waited for it :)
L'appartamento corrispondeva in pieno alle foto e alla descrizione anzi era ancora più spazioso e accogliente con tutto ciò che occorre. Ottima la posizione ed ottimamente servito dai mezzi pubblici, lo consiglio caldamente.

U.S. surgeon general to speak, Feb. 7
Posted January 31, 2002; 02:06 p.m.
U.S. Surgeon General David Satcher will present a free public lecture titled Preventing and Decreasing Overweight and Obesity: Opportunities and Challenges for Public Health at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall.
A physician, scholar and lifelong public health advocate, Satcher was sworn in as the 16th surgeon general in February 1998. Until January 2001, he served simultaneously as surgeon general and as assistant secretary for health. His term as surgeon general ends Feb. 13. He has announced that he will work on his memoirs as a visiting senior fellow with the Henry Kaiser Family Foundation in Washington, D.C., and then become director of the National Center for Primary Care at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta in September.
Over the years, the surgeon general's office has issued a number of reports intended to focus the nation's attention on important public health issues. The Surgeon General's Call to Action to Prevent and Decrease Overweight and Obesity, released in December, outlined strategies that communities can use to address these problems which, Satcher said, "may soon cause as much preventable disease and death as cigarette smoking." Other reports have covered topics ranging from the adverse health consequences of smoking to youth violence and suicide prevention to HIV/AIDS.
Before becoming surgeon general, Satcher was director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from 1993 to 1998 and president of Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tenn., from 1982 to 1993.
The lecture is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs Center for Health and Wellbeing and Office of External Affairs.

Where *does* time go?
I'm finally taking the time to sit down and finally learn how go code in C. Funny what being laid off does. I'm reading the ORA make book and getting all kinds of ideas on how I could use it to make custon CV versions... Then again, maybe it's time to get off my arse and get my own thing going.
Beyond hawking the CV over yon and sundry, I'm working on two small projects, mostly to get up to speed with C and Python.
The C project is being done with a friend and aims to be the penultimate program for unit conversion. Goals for 1.0 are full implementation of MKS (meter - kilogram - second) conversions. Once this is done, I would like to see changes to 2.0 dealing with full localization so that i18n is indeed possible.
The Python project is more immediate, as it is really to export raw data from my thesis into a decent TeX layout so that I can append it to the thesis. I have the pgsql links working already, but am a bit stuck on the crosstab query generator. Next step afterwards is generating a CRC32 checksum across rows and columns so that errors can be detected during OCR if and when someone decides to do that some time down the line.
This latter part seems like a lot of trouble for something that may not be useful, but after my experiences doing an OCR import of someone else's copious quantities of thesis data, I'm bound and determined to do better.
Speaking of the Never-Ending Thesis Saga, I did indeed finally get my revisions back (after two months). It gets better tho, according to He Who Must Sign Off, "One last set of revisions and it will be okay" (his words). Wow. That's the first time I've ever heard him say that term. Last. Could this actually be the end of the Never-Ending Thesis Saga? We'll see...

Fibroadenoma of the breast is a benign tumor. Benign tumor means it is not caused by cancer.
Fibroadenoma is the most common benign tumor of the breast. Fibroadenoma is the most common breast tumor in women under age 30.
A fibroadenoma is made up of breast gland tissue and tissue that helps support the breast gland tissue.
African American women tend to develop fibroadenomas more often and at an earlier age than Caucasian women. The cause of fibroadenomas is not known.
Fibroadenomas are usually single lumps. About 10% to 15% of women have several lumps that may affect both breasts.
Lumps may be any of the following:
Lumps have smooth, well-defined borders. They may grow in size, especially during pregnancy. Fibroadenomas often get smaller after menopause (if a woman is not taking hormone therapy).
After a physical exam, one or both of the following tests are usually done:
A biopsy may be done to get a definite diagnosis. Different types of biopsies include:
Women in their teens or early 20s may not need a biopsy if the lump goes away on its own or if the lump does not change over a long period.
If a biopsy shows that the lump is a fibroadenoma, the lump may be left in place or removed.
You and your surgeon can discuss whether or not to remove the lump. Reasons to have it removed include:
If the lump is not removed, your health care provider will watch to see if it changes or grows. This may be done using
Sometimes, the lump is destroyed without removing it, using freezing. This is called cryoablation.
Women with fibroadenoma have a slightly higher risk of breast cancer later in life.
If the lump is left in place and watched carefully, it may need to be removed at a later time if it changes or grows.
In very rare cases, the lump is cancer, and will need further treatment.
Call your health care provider if you have a lump that you think is a fibroadenoma and it grows or changes in any way.

Do I need to feed my Bamboo Shrimp? He's picking through the gravel...
Hi all,
I have a 10 gallon tank with 2 guppies in it, and a few months ago I added a bamboo shrimp. I'll admit I didn't do the homework I should have before adding the shrimp... I just saw him at PetCo, he was really cool, and the PetCo guy told me he's basically maintenance free, so I got him. I figured I could use a scavenger, as the only other one in the tank was a moon snail (who's since died, but he had a good run for a snail).
Well, I always assumed the shrimp was doing well... he's skittish, but I often see him out of his hidey holes, picking food off the substrate. This seemed normal shrimpy behavior.
Then he molted, and realizing I didn't know anything about these animals or how normal that was, I started reading up. Of course now I've learned they're filter feeders, and I've read online that if you see your shrimp actively combing the bottom for food, he's probably starving.
Well geez, the poor guy, I'd be glad to feed him... but what? How? I really figured, between left over fish food and algae, there'd be enough to eat. Since I read molting can be difficult on these creatures, and he came through it just fine, I assume he's fairly healthy. Water quality should be good - I do frequent changes and tests and the guppies have been in there for around 6 months with no problems.
I am running 2 filters, just because I have an extra and figured "why not"? Is it possible I'm over-filtering the water and not leaving anything for him? I really doubt it since whenever I do a water change there ends up being plenty of specks floating around until things settle again... so it's not like there's no detritus in the tank.
So I can't figure out why he might be starving. Or maybe he's not and does filter feed sometimes when I don't see him, and he's just a glutton and likes picking the bottom too? I'd love to hear any thoughts from you folks that have experience with these guys.
Never had one [Not available locally and haven't ordered one] but I have looked into them. It definitely sounds like he is not eating what he would prefer.
From what I recall daphnia, rotifers, powdered spirulina & PhytoPlan [From Two Little Fishes] all fit the bill for your shrimp.
It's a start and I hope it helps.
Gas mileage isn't everything OIIIIIIIO
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.

Thanks for the reply. All good ideas, and I'll definitely pick up one of those.
Coincidentally, right after I wrote that first post, I walked by the tank, and there was the shrimp, perched halfway out the hole of his cave, happily filtering away. He's spent the majority of each day since doing that, so maybe it took him a few months to figure it out lol. I'll still add a supplement for him though.
Some people have succes with fry food, the liquid kind. You could also look into starting an infusoria culture that's going to be a lot cheaper in the long run if you get the hang of it.
I was going to suggest perhaps there wasn't enough current for him - but with two filters that likely isn't a problem. I'm was also thinking that a ten gallon tank might not be enough water capacity to naturally hold the amount of suspended particles he needs. I had a few of these in a 75 gal cichlid (therefor messy) tank and I almost never saw them combing the substrate, tho I did see that a couple times over the year I had that tank. They do get pretty big tho, if he's moulting he's growing, which to me means he's likely not starving.
A little bit of supplementing and he should be ok. You might want to move his cave to where there is more current in order to facilitate his feeding...?

From what I've heard they need about 30 gallons per shrimp. Also for emergency feedings, you can grind up some flake food really fine, or algae wafers, mix it with water, suck it up in a dropper or syringe and shoot it directly at the shrimp.

The selection of gun-shooting, anti-abortion, creationist, doctrinaire conservative Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as John McCain's vice-presidential nominee has finally got the GOP's conservative base excited. The right-wing talk-show hosts and religious leaders who had been lukewarm over McCain — and fearful that he really might put Senator Joe Lieberman on the ticket — are beside themselves with glee.
Once again, as in 2000 and 2004, the Republican base will get fired up for November. Conservative religious groups will distribute fliers about abortion, homosexuals, and atheism. Evangelical churches will run busses to the polling places. Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity will warn, hour after hour, of the impending socialistic state of Barack Obama, and the inevitable nuclear attack on American soil.
Palin is part of McCain's attempt to reclaim the Republican advantage in party-base enthusiasm, an edge which arguably won the past two presidential elections for the GOP. This year, that advantage was seen as heavily favoring the Democrats.
But not only has McCain started to energize his conservatives, fervor was also waning in recent weeks among Democrats, due to in-fighting, uncertainty, and tightening poll numbers — to the point that Democrats arriving in Denver this past week for their national convention seemed surprisingly nervous about the election, and noticeably cautious in their enthusiasm.
Like Red Sox fans in the 86 years of darkness, Democratic insiders bear the scars of past broken hearts, from times when they previously let themselves believe that their time had come — only to see victory elude them like a ground ball between the legs of Al Gore and John Kerry.
To mix Red Sox metaphors, it is as though they have come to expect that Karl Rove lurks in the batter's box like Bucky Dent, always ready to drive one over the Green Monster and beat them in the end.
Obama needs his base — the delegates and party activists in Denver — to believe again that this is, really, the year his party's dreams will come to fruition. He needs them to believe, so that they will be passionate speakers on his behalf back in their home states; so that they will fill his coffers with money; so that they will spend endless hours registering voters, making phone calls, and doing all the grunt work of the national campaign — in short, so that the enthusiasm gap this time works in the Democrats' favor.
So, while the convention was on one level meant to sell a likable Obama to the national audience, on another level it was meant to whip the Democrats inside the convention hall into a frenzy that would stand up to the inevitable enthusiasm of the Republicans.
Mood sourers
These should be heady times for Democrats. Their party is on the rise, while their opponents are in the national doghouse. Most analysts believe Democrats are just a few months away from holding not just the Oval Office (their presidential candidate has led in almost every national poll taken since the two 2008 major-party nominees have been known), but a minimum of 55 percent of positions in the US Senate, US House, and governorships, as well. Among the general populace, voters are now far more likely to register and self-identify as Democrat than Republican, and to prefer that Democrats control government. On almost all the major issues of the day — the economy, Iraq, health care — a solid majority of Americans favors Democratic positions over Republican ones.

Stephanie! I'm the designer and owner of Bella Blvd, this fabulous little scrapbooking company located in the sweet city of Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. I'm a pretty ordinary girl that is blessed to be living an extraordinary life where I get to do what I love for a living! For as long as I can remember I have dreamt of designing scrapbooking products and now I have been incredibly blessed to meet the team at Riley Blake Fabrics too. Seeing my artwork come to life in fabric form is amazing! Since establishing Bella Blvd not a single day has felt like work. I only hope is that you love Too Cute to Spook as much as I do!
Q: Where did you find your original inspiration for this collection?
A: I know that Halloween is primarily for little kiddos. Therefore, whimsical, playful and fun Halloween came to mind right away. My nieces and nephews have adorned some adorable costumes in their youngster years that definitely inspired the little Trick or Treater characters in the main print.
Q: What is your favorite part of the fabric industry?
A: I am still learning about the fabric industry, as my company, Bella Blvd, is a papercrafting company. After meeting the wonderful team at Riley Blake Fabrics we have joined forces to be able to bring the world my designs/Bella Blvd in fabrics! It's pretty amazing when the first bolts and fat quarters arrive at the studio. We have our own Fabric Design Team including some talented women that love to sew, stitch and freestyle.
Q: From what aspect of your life do you draw creativity?
A: Every aspect. Most of my inspiration comes through direct experiences in my life. For example, when my brand new niece was born I was incredibly inspired to create baby themed designs. Whatever my life is submerged in is what I'm inspired by the most.
Q: What is your design process?
A: I love to draw. I always have. Since I was 7-8 years old I've had a sketchbook. I used to love to create portraits of people, but slowly over time I have grown to love illustration. I miss the days of painting in college and wish I had more time to do it. After my illustrations are drawn I take them into my computer and let my creativity fly!
Q: What is your favorite print in the collection?
A: My favorite print in Too Cute To Spook HAS TO BE the little Trick or Treaters, in blue, grey and white. I also am a sucker for polka dots, so I especially love the black based dot with the pop of colors!
Q: What is the most challenging part of the design process?
A: Narrowing down all of my ideas. A collection must look cohesive and uniform. It's hard to eliminate patterns and ideas from the list in hopes to keep a "family" look to a collection. I tend to stow those eliminated ideas away for the next round....
Q: What are your favorite and least favorite colors and why?
I think my least favorite color (personally) is green. I don't own a single green shirt. However, in my crafting I use a TON of lime green. It's quite funny how it works out that way!

Where I stayed
Canyonlands RV Park
What I did
Islands in the Sky at Canyonlands & Park Aveneue in Arches
The park is 30 miles from Moab. First you head north on the 191 for 10 miles and then you hang a left on Utah 313 which takes you gradually up the mesa 2,000 feet above the Colorado. We bummed around the surprisingly crowded small visitors center for 30 min
We drove 6 miles to our first stop – Mesa Arch. This is supposed to be the best place to watch the sunrise in the whole area. But the sun comes up here around 6:00 am and it takes 45 min. to get here – too early for us sleepy heads. The trail was only a half a mile over an easy path. The arch was small by the standards of the area, but it was unique in that it was attached to a 1,000 ft. cliff. So to go under the arch you'd have to jump off a cliff. Some brave souls walked on top of this arch – one strong wind the wrong direction and you'll have a little free fall.
After three miles we stopped by Buck Canyon Overlook which is the only spot on the Island where you can see a small snippet of the river. From here it was three more miles to the Grand View Point Overlook. There is a one mile trail that follows the ledge of the island so Pooh and I took it. By this time it was around noon and getting pretty hot. So Pooh found a few small shady spots around some large boulders. The tip of the point was a little disappointing as a big mesa blocked 50% of the view. Plus, I really wanted to see the point where the Green and Colorado Rivers meet. But you really have to go on the river to see this. Right as we were going to walk back, we noticed a cloud to our south that just popped up out of nowhere. And not just any cloud, but a storm cloud with rain in the far distance concealing a butte in the distance. As we got in the truck after our mile back, the storm clouds now took up half the sky to our south and was covering up more buttes in the distance
Our next planned spot was the Upheaval Dome area and trail. But first we stopped at the Green River Overlook. Now the weather was getting ominous. The storms were now around us on three sides. It was neat to watch the storm head toward us with a view of 50 miles – to watch one butte after another disappear behind the rain showers. As we were walking toward the truck it started to rain on us but just a little. Since this storm seemed to be on top of us, we cancelled out Upheaval Dome trail and headed back for Moab. Canyonlands had some killer overlooks but that was about it – I guess you need to take a raft for a 4x4 trek into it to really get a good feel of the place. Since the needles district is so far away, I don't think we'll be driving that just to do a few hour's worth of trails.
From here it was about 40 miles. We passed in and out of the rain but it did not rain very hard until the second we reached Moab. Right as we pulled into where we were going to eat, the heavens unleashed its furry. I had to let Pooh out at the door while I found a place to park my big truck and run in myself. We ate at one of the Moab watering holes called Eddie McStiffs. Pooh got some wings while I had a small steak with some cilantro sauce on top
In the evening we went back out to Arches National Park for a short two mile hike. Before the hike we did the Visitors Center thing where I checked out the really cool exhibits here on how arches are made and destroyed and it had a pretty good film done by the National Geographic Channel. I did get my traditional t-shirt at the store to add to my National Parks collection and Pooh got this really cool looking Mao-type hat. So now when she wears the cap I'll call her "Comrade Pooh." I also confirmed my reservations for the ranger led hike for tomorrow afternoon at the Fiery Furnace and got my do's and don'ts information.
Back in the truck we went back up the massive mesa in front of the VC and on top of the Arches mesa for just a few miles to get to the trailhead of Park Avenue. This trail is just a mile long but goes in a wash in the middle of these 1,000 high walls of stone on both sides. At the end of the trail a mile away was the massive spire called the Courthouse and the Tower of Babel. These monoliths just stuck out of the ground for no reason but to make you look very small. The trail went down into a wash most of the time, but then for the mile back we had to go uphill. Overall, a great trail to make you feel very insignificant. After the trail we drove back to the RV and chilled for the night.

Politics in Internet age is talk topic
Posted September 10, 2009; 10:36 p.m.
"Politics in the Age of the Participatory Web" is the title of a lecture by author Steven Johnson set for 8 p.m. Monday, Sept. 21, in McCosh 50.
Johnson, a contributing editor to Wired magazine, is the author of six books on the intersection of technology, science and modern life. His lecture will argue against those who maintain that the Internet has fragmented society by enabling people to filter out voices with viewpoints different from their own. Johnson contends that the Internet promotes a diversity far more comprehensive than older forms of media.
The talk is designated as a Stafford Little Lecture sponsored by the University Public Lecture Series.

The Way I See It!
I am an Ultra-Conservative, Alpha-Male, True Authentic Leader, Type "C" Personality, who is very active in my community; whether it is donating time, clothes or money for Project Concern or going to Common Council meetings and voicing my opinions. As a blogger, I intend to provide a different viewpoint "The way I see it!" on various world, national and local issues with a few helpful tips & tidbits sprinkled in.
Questions to the Cudahy Mayoral Candidates on the State of the City Meetings
Candidate Mayor Day,
I convinced former Mayor McCue to hold a yearly State of the City town hall meetings, is there a reason you did not continue that? If you are re-elected would you start in 2014 to hold the State of the City town hall meetings so people can find out firsthand what is going on and ask one-on-one questions?
Candidate Mayor Hohenfeldt,
If you are elected Mayor would you start in 2014 to hold the State of the City town hall meetings so people can find out firsthand what is going on and ask one-on-one questions?
Randy Hollenbeck
firstname.lastname@example.com; firstname.lastname@example.com
Side notes - Former Mayor Hohenfeldt answered back first as the email address for Mayor Day was not working get as it was dormant and did require me to email his City address to let him know that is was not. I few days later I did see the website and email address was active now. I held them until both responded.
February 3, 2013
Yes, I will begin the Town Hall meetings. It is important for the residents of Cudahy to be informed on different issues and to be able to speak out on their concerns.
Mayor Day
January 26, 2013
The answer to your question is yes I would hold at least one town hall meeting per year for residents to come and hear what is going on.
Serving as Mayor, I was open to using several forms of communication. Talking directly to residents, the media, civic and community groups, e mail, telephone. I never put myself in a position where I was unavailable to talk with residents. As Mayor, you are the Chief Spokesperson for the city, and should be available.
Learning from the past, I could have held these types of meetings during my term, but did not. Thus, I will change when elected in 2013.

The economy will turn around regardless of who is in the whitehouse. Its the American way.
So are you asking what specifically he would do that someone else in his place would not do, thereby he gets full credit and how long would take?
18 Months
19 - 24 Months
25 - 36 Months
Greater than 36 Months
Greater than 48 Months
It just won't happen
The economy will turn around regardless of who is in the whitehouse. Its the American way.
So are you asking what specifically he would do that someone else in his place would not do, thereby he gets full credit and how long would take?
I had to go with 36 months because the next step up is longer than 48 months and frankly after the people get a look at what a piece of work this guy really is 48 months will be the end of the Obama experiment.
"The longer you let a dog go in the wrong direction the more they think they are going in the right direction" Don Remien.
Ding, ding, ding....winner! IT will not be the fact that BHO is in the White House. The economy will turn around in time regardless of who is POTUS. However, the left will take credit as would the right. I don;t think it will be as strong as it was a few years ago even after 4 years of BHO, but it will be more "normal" I hope. I am just still not sure how we are going to pay for all of BHO's tax cuts (can't make it all up from the rich can they?) and spending. Seems like a bad more to vow to spend more and take in less....kind of like making loans to people who do not qualify...good business plan if you ask me

I didn't get a chance to vote. As someone else said, the economy will improve regardless of whom is in office. Although, I think that if both sides would quit bickering, and find common ground to the betterment of the entire country, it would happen faster and better.
Don't look for one side to work with the other side, no matter who gets elected. Harry Reid said he will not work with Romney and the R's will not work with Obama. We are not the United States anymore after this election, we are the Democrats and Republicans.

Federation: Australian Art and Society 1901-2001
8 December 2000 - 11 February 2001
Alfred Deakin, one of the architects of Federation, said that the deed was accomplished only 'by a series of miracles'. Today we can barely imagine how hard it was to forge six quarrelsome colonies into a single nation. John McDonald, curator of the exhibition, argues that it is still debatable whether those issues that unite us as Australians outweigh those that divide us.

I have seen clothing items, lamps, chairs, sofas, bed frames... You name it, you can find it somewhere in my neighbourhood.
The other day, I saw a chair. It was not pretty, but in good condition. My boyfriend was rather skeptical when I came home with it, but I had grand plans. After some fabric and paint shopping, I went to work on it last weekend.
I especially love the fabric with its cute olive and radish print.

Did you experience nausea during pregnancy?
One of the first early signs of pregnancy that I noticed every time was nausea. I was just reading this article about nausea during pregnancy, and found it to be very helpful. I have heard vitamin B6 recommended for nausea, and it was interesting to read what foods it can be found in. I have also not really liked the term 'morning sickness,' as I had nausea anytime during the day or night during pregnancy.
Did you have nausea during pregnancy? Did it last your entire pregnancy? When did it start?

I really did not experience any nausea at all during my first one. I just experienced headaches like I do now and some tiredness. Well I heard that a few things are very helpful when it comes to nausea though. I have to say though sometimes I would get something as the baby got into the last term, like now. When my second son moves I may feel a little bit I guess. I guess it is because he is kicking me and everything now. I try to drink sprite, for nausea because I do not want to take anymore vitamins or anything. What foods is B6 found in?
15th January 2012 09:41 AM #3
Food high in Vitamin B6 are potato, banana, salmon and other fish, chicken, spinach, avocado, turkey, green leafy vegetables, brown rice, green peas.
Blackmores do a Morning Sickness formula that contains Vitamin B6. It is important to note that it is not a good idea to take a Vitamin B6 supplement for an extended period of time.

I had some nausea during the first trimester with all my pregnancies. It was minimal though and I never had to deal with vomiting. I've heard from doula clients and friends that ginger tea and even raw ginger help.
16th January 2012 03:37 PM #5
I had nausea and vomiting with all 5 of my pregnancies.
Here's a good thread that discusses natural therapies for morning sickness.

i've been very lucky to not experience any nausea in any of my 14 pregnancies. but my sister was sick during both of her pregnancies for the entire time. both of her boys were born early(29wks & 36wks) & i think being so sick so often didn't help.

Hi gez15673. Wow what a huge family you have, it must be really fun! Well my nausea during my pregnancy was the worst. It was accompanied with vomiting and it starts in the morning then it goes away in the afternoon then comes back in late evening. I experienced it during the 3rd week I guess and it lasted up to the 5th month. Then I had it again around 7 or 8 months though it was only mild.
There are a lot of ways to manage nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. Take care.

By NEMS Daily Journal
The Tupelo and Corinth public school districts weren't among the 16 applicants chosen for grants in the $400 million national Race to the Top academic competition but they are better off for having made a concerted effort to secure millions in federal funding for targeted key academic programs.
Five other Mississippi districts made the race, but none of them were selected, either.
Tupelo concentrated its application on expanded early childhood education, dual enrollment options at THS and more technology options.
Corinth had worked with the South Panola School District on plans calling for introduction of iPads into fourth through 12th-grade classrooms, and a distance learning program, which would have used advanced technology.
The winning applicants included three public charter schools, traditional districts and consortiums of districts; all were leaders in innovation.
Among the most interest generated in the region is $30 million awarded to Guilford (N.C.) County Schools, whose concentration focuses on individualized learning for its 17,000 students. Guilford County includes Greensboro, a city with industrial and business ties to Mississippi.
Superintendent of Guilford County Schools Maurice "Mo" Green said the funds will go a long way in making sure the school district can personalize learning and improve educational outcomes for every student, a Greensboro television station reported. North Carolina, which has a long record of school improvement, has won about $400 million since Race to the Top began. School officials said they will use the funds to implement Personalized Achievement, Curriculum and Environment Schools Project, which will accelerate 21st century personalized learning across county schools.
The special focus, methods and results of all the successful districts are open record. Schools like Tupelo, Corinth and others might find that extra edge needed to achieve the top in examining in detail, even emulating, what the 2012 winners did.
Standard public schools can succeed when invested with the best resources and minds.

|Classic Atlantic Salmon No pursuit rivals salmon rivers, flies & legacy
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Total 'side bar' on this quite interesting topic.
Just noticed that Juro was about to pass the Big 60 (PLUS two more zeros!!) on board posts.
This calls for some sort of acknowledgment/count down/etc.
Interesting discussion!
One thing to keep in mind is that a rod that spey casts well in a river is typically not going to be the optimum coastal overhand rod, and vice-versa.
I've watched a lot of people who missed this subtle distinction in their buying practices use traditional action spey rods on the beach, and when the wind, surf or big baits are the order for the day they are holding the wrong tool for the job.
Conversely with the rise in spey rod manufacturers many people have purchased stiff spey rods and struggled with their spey casting on rivers. That rod might have been great in the surf, albeit unnecessarily long.
A rod with authority to throw for distance into wind, over waves and heavier flies; stripping the entire line to tease the fly to shore and fighting big fish in sloppy surf... is not even close to being a sweet river spey rod that lofts a tight wedge over the pool. This is particularly true if you are spey casting on the river to fish where there is little backcasting room - that rod is quite different than a surf flyfishing rod. So in my humble opinion, the best tool for each of these situations is worlds apart.
But to answer your question, I think it's possible to find a rod that suits both purposes but it will be less than ideal in both applications, and the advantages will be reduced in each so that a single hander would be arguably just as good due to the compromises made to find the middle ground.
Admittedly, if a person fishes estuaries with currents and inlets, rivers with small flies and lighter lines, they could use the same rod for both applications of course. But enter the word "surf" and things change dramatically.
Jay -

FYI - I will need help getting the initial order investment together so am offering a special discount to early adopters in exchange for feedback and possible phone interview. This program is limited qty and time only, once dealers are signed up the program will end.
I'll provide details privately, just email me or PM to participate.
thanks Juro
Double Duty Two Hander
There has been a ton of development work done on two handed rods for in-shore duty by members of this group as you likely know because you have been around on the forum for a while.
Right now all that work is being finalized into something that might become a commercial product so I think discussion about it on the board may be limited for a while.
Your question is a great question and I wanted to respond so that you understand the lack of comments may just mean the folks who were developing something for in-shore work are less inclined to discuss it until they finish their project(s)
One more comment; I'm not sure personally that a rod can perform double duty for river and in-shore work adequately. My experience is that the surf rod and the river rod need different characteristics to work well. I would encourage you to make sure your prototype testing is extensive. Best of luck in the project
Two-Hander for Salmon River/Alantic In-Shore Double-Duty?
Hi All,
I've recently moved back into the Northeastern US and am very interested in doing some salmon fishing on the "local" Salmon River. Additionally, I'll be spending more time fishing the Atlantic seaboard in search of our in-shore species (stripers, blues, weakfish, false albacore, and the like), mostly from shore. I've been reading up on two-handed rods on the forum and would like to build the rod over the upcoming Winter. If any of you with experience on the subject would be so kind, I'd like some recommendations as to which blanks would do well for 8- and 9-wt fishing, as well as a matching line. I have reels that can be used, so that's not an issue. My goal is to build a rod that I can perform overhead casting with to shoot plenty of line and thus cover more water, as well as not tire my arm(s) out after a day on the water. Thanks in advance for any information; I hope to jump in to this two-handed fishing soon...

This doesn't bode well for the upcoming ewok wave, either. This is where the Fan Club should show some brains, and offer all of these figs to us collectors, since the stores don't care. But then, since when have Hasbro OR the Fan Club cared about us lately anyway?

Date & Time
Event Details
Jazz Artists of Charleston (JAC) announces programming for its 2nd Annual JAC Week, presenting five days of diverse programming and debut concerts to celebrate the work of JAC and the Charleston Jazz Orchestra, while raising awareness and funds to keep Charleston's jazz culture and legacy alive and thriving. In celebration of the first anniversary of the debut of the CJO Chamber Ensemble and the fourth anniversary of Jazz Artists of Charleston Day, as declared by Mayor Joseph P. Riley, Jr. in 2010, the Charleston Jazz Orchestra Chamber Ensemble returns to JAC Week to present Duke Ellington's Far East Suite. The influential, nine-movement, 1966 jazz recording was written by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, and was inspired by the legendary Duke Ellington Orchestra's world tour, especially in South-East Asia and Japan. The CJO Chamber Ensemble presents the entire work in arrangements for septet, originally performed by members of CJO in 2011 in collaboration with Charleston Ballet Theatre for the "Ellington Experience." This year, the CJO Chamber Ensemble plays the piece with all of the power and excitement intact from both that performance as well as from A Suite Holiday, when the full CJO performed it in 2009. Duke Ellington's Far East Suite is a reflection of America's profound influence on the music of the rest of the world. The CJO Chamber Ensemble plays the work with Charleston's own place in that rich musical narrative in mind.
Showtimes are at 7pm and 9:30pm. $30 each. Order tickets online via bit.ly/ZCyvfu or call (843)641-0011.

Opinions on the following products
Hey guys, just thought I'd do a post on the following products, all of which are rather popular, and recommended by LFS. Just a note, I HAVE NOT USED ANY OF THE PRODUCTS EXCEPT NUTRAFIN AQUA PLUS as a water conditioner, the others I have not used at all. I wanted to know peoples opinions on these products, as there are some very mixed reviews out there. Please comment on your experiences with these products, if any, much appreciated.
1. Nutrafin Aqua Plus (water conditioner)
2. Nutrafin Cycle (Biological aquarium supplement)
3. API ammo lock
4. API stress coat
5. API stress zyme
Thanks to members of the AC who made me aware of it, I don't use anything but Seachems Prime for water conditioner. It's highly concentrated and highly economical to use.
That's the only product i use for my fish. Have never used ammo lock, stress coat or stress zyme. IMO, none of them are necessary if you keep your tank well filtered and the water clean.
I do keep Prazi-pro on hand to worm new fish and worm the tanks every six months and I keep Metro+ on hand in case I have a sick fish.
Others may have differing views30 g FW planted:corys, female ABNP, blue angel, harleys, zebra danios, rummies,

Ditto both the above. The only thing I would even consider using of those products is the conditioner, but I would use Prime rather than that brand. The others I wouldn't even consider buying.

I don't know anything about your produce but do know that Prime handles both chlorine and chloramine (sp). It's also highly concentrated so a bottle goes a long way. It will also help detoxify ammonia if you get a little spike. Doesn't remove it but reduces the harmful effects.
As for "worm the tank" Fish inherently come with internal parasites. Prazi pro is a good, gentle wormer that will eliminate most of them. So I worm new fish when I get them then 'worm the tank" every six months. Perhaps a better way to put it would be "treat the tank for worms" :o)30 g FW planted:corys, female ABNP, blue angel, harleys, zebra danios, rummies,

0If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
"Not using a quarantine tank is like playing Russian roulette. Nobody wins the game, some people just get to play longer than others." - Anthony Calfo
Fishless Cycle Cycling with Fish Marine Aquarium Info [URL="http://saltwater.aquaticcommunity.com/"]
I tend to agree, though not necessarily on the Prime, as I will come to momentarily.
I happen to use the Nutrafin AquaPlus as my conditioner. I use this one because (a) I only have chlorine in my tap water to deal with, (b) it is the least expensive I can get and I have 7+ tanks with weekly 50% water changes. I've been using this for over a year now, and have no issues with it. Previously I used Kordon's NovAqua for many years.
The other products here I certainly agree are wasting money and some may cause problems in the aquarium. As you seem to be agreeing with all of us not to bother with them, I won't go into details at this point, but move on to my comments on Prime.
My issue with Prime is that it does a lot of messing in the tank. It not only handles chlorine and chloramine, but heavy metals [many but not all conditioners deal with these, the AquaPlus does for one], ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. I personally do not need nor do I want any chemical compound in my fish tank that messes with ammonia, nitrite or nitrate. I have live plants that take up pretty much most of the ammonia/ammonium and what is left will feed the archaea (think of it as bacteria...another story if anyone is interested). [And in correspondence with Seachem's lab people, they admitted to me that they do not know how Prime actually detoxifies nitrite and nitrate, but it does; this in itself bothers me a bit.] If you have any of these in your tap water, then Prime may be suited to your needs, though there are other conditioners that handle ammonia if that is all you had, and there is one other, Ultimate by Aquarium Solutions, that deals with ammonia and nitrite (but not nitrate). But without these in your source water, I suggest not using Prime.
Which brings me to why. Simply, this product adds more TDS (total dissolved solids) than what is necessary [=essential to do some function]. The more substances and chemical compounds that are put in an aquarium, the more the TDS. And soft water fish are highly affected by these. We often confine ourselves to talking about GH but this is only a part of the TDS. I compiled an article [yes, another article] on TDS, here it is:
I have come to accept that nothing except what is absolutely essential should be added to a fish tank. I know not everyone takes this view, but I believe it is safer for the fish. The processes that occur in an aquarium are very involved, and inter-connected; the less outside stuff messing up the works, the better for the fishies.

Something we all need to remember: The fish you've acquired was quite happy not being owned by you, minding its own business. If youre going to take it under your wing then youre responsible for it. Every aspect of its life is under your control, from water quality and temperature to swimming space. [Nathan Hill in PFK]

I've started watching anime when i was waaay younger, stupider and naive. And so I watched crap like DBZ, and I don't really feel any shame bout it - everybody gotta start with sth. Now I'm bit more cynical, so I try to look for more interesting anime. But that doesn't stop me from watching some total nonsense just to relieve some stress. Though I have to admit I am getting more and more picky lately. Sign of getting old? :S
Why i like anime? Well it's exotic for sure - that factor is probably very important. It's created by completely different culture after all. Also it's easier to create emotions in drawings then to squeeze them out of real actors. Of course the best of the best are able to give you any facial expression. But even in mediocre anime you can usually find it. Therefore watching anime is more fun than watching real live movies. Not that i don't watch them - diversity is also good.
Well if you read so far it means you really are bored. So I may add that i came here through anidb.net while trying to find some new series to watch, and found this place quite interesting. And following the rule that when you take you should also give something i decided i'll give some reccomendations/reviews as well.
That's it ;]
Scoring explained:
0,5-1 - a.k.a. hate score - show that was so terrible to aquire at max score of 2, I couldn't find a single redeeming feature, and I personally hated it.
1,5 - 4 - really bad and I don't reccommend it. But I can acknowledge it did tried to be good at least in one cathegory
4 - 5 - below average. very weak, and not reccommended (Except maybe some hardcore genre fanatics)
5 - 6.5 - average. It's watchable, my eyes didn't bleed but I'm not really gasping in awe.
6.5 - 8 - Above average. Nothing groundbreaking, but enjoyable show.
8 - 9.5 - Good. I really enjoyed the show a lot, and can reccommend it to anyone
10 - a.k.a. fanboyish score - anime that should get at least 8 if judging objectively, but managed to move me enough to become one of my personal favorites. 10 doesn't neccessarily means the show is a masterpiece, but rather that it's a good show that I personally adore.
Manga pimping:
1. Love Roma - seinen, slice of life, romance Moving between absurd and heartwarming, reading this manga really made my day and left me with a large smile. Very simple high school romance, without any serious drama, or fanservice. You can check my review if you need more convincing.
2. Densha Otoko: The Story of the Train Man Who Fell in Love With a Girl - seinen, romance. short and unbelievably cute romance, based on real events. Sweet story about otaku, getting a girlfriend thanks to advices posted on 2chan. The art is weak, but the charm of this manga is good enough to cover for it. There were moments where I found myself cheering for the main character along with the posters on the forum, so yeah - this 3 volumes are worth the time ;]
13,956 total episodes
Thank you for your mature response. When I made that comment, awhile back, I was a bit of an idiot lol. I've now deleted the comment. In addition, I have since come around to your way of thinking on Linebarrels, but for some reason I still like it a bit haha.

Awesome? Cooool XD
Anyways I'm sorry if I'm not making any sense, but I am kinda sorta rushing-a haha ^^" I'd actually love it if I could talk to you more, you seem like an interesting person. Seriously. Don't believe me? Then I'll make you !

When was the last time you saw, outside of manga/anime or more obscure science fiction novels, somebody putting their brain in a jar, and putting that jar in a non-humanoid body?
I think that's the only place where you would typically see this. This concept reminds me of the cymeks in the Dune prequel series. I do see your point though. Who among us wouldn't want to trade our bodies in for a huge hexapodal machine capable of space flight?

Visitors to The Bass Cottage Inn may recall our breakfast entree, Shrimp on a Raft - herbed biscuit served with Maine shrimp sauce (with those very same sweet little buggers) and poached eggs.
Here's a dinner treat Jeff and Teri enjoy at home during the winter which showcases our local Maine shrimp with an important cameo appearance by local lobster (thanks for the cookbook "Dishing Up Maine" by Brooke Dojny for providing a great point of departure). We've added some of Maine's signature lobster (including the flavorful liver known as the tomalley) and piquant pickled peppers.
- 1 --1.5 lb lobster, partially steamed, meat removed, 1-2 teaspoons tomalley reserved (optional)
- 6 tablespoons of butter
- 6 tablespoons of olive oil
- 5 garlic cloves
- 3 large shallots, minced
- 1 bottle, clam juice
- 1 cup white wine
- 2 teaspoons, angostura bitters
- 2 teaspoons, lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 hot cherry pepper (seeded) or 2 pepadew peppers, minced
- 1 lb, Maine shrimp meat
- 12 oz. linguine, fettuccine or tagliatelle
- fresh parsley, minced
- salt and pepper to taste
Fill pan with water deep enough to cover the lobster's head (3-4 inches). When boiling, put the live lobster in the water, headfirst, and cover the pan. Steam for 10 minutes (the meat will finish cooking when you saute it later).
Remove partially cooked lobster and set in a colander to drain. Use the same pot to cook your pasta...fill and put on the burner.
When the lobster is cool enough to handle, break the tail off the body. You'll see the green tamale in the carapace. Spoon out 1-2 teaspoons of the tomalley and put in a small dish. (If tomalley bothers you you can omit it.) Remove the lobster meat from the tail, claws and knuckles. Cut into bite size pieces, refrigerate while you make the rest of the dish.
In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter and add the olive oil. When melted, add the garlic and shallots. Saute for 5 minutes (do not burn!). Whisk in the tomalley. Cook for 1 more minute.
Add the clam juice and wine. Turn heat to high, bring to a boil and reduce by about 1/3. Then, add the lemon juice, zest, bitters and minced peppers. Take it off heat while you prep the pasta.
Cook the pasta al dente. Reheat the sauce in the saute pan, add the raw Maine shrimp and reserved lobster meat. Cook the seafood about 1-2 minutes taking care not to overcook it. Check for seasoning...add salt and pepper to taste. Then, add the pasta to the saute pan and toss to coat. If it's too dry, add some reserved pasta water.
Plate pasta, taking care to have some of the shrimp and lobster arranged on top of the noodles. Top with the fresh parsley. Enjoy your taste of Maine, Italian-style!

I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
Been playing the free version (ad supported, but so far only 1 ad has appeared) on my Android tablet and it's really fun, the new abilities are pretty clever and add a real twist to the concept. The reflecting of blaster bolts is something really unexpected even based on seeing all the trailers, it comes into play quite a bit. I am not sure if I'll drop $2 or $3 on the Path of the Jedi Dagobah levels, there's only 40 of 'em and the teaser level was nothing special at all.
I've been enjoying the iPad HD version and it's worth the $2.99! I don't think I would pay that for a smaller screen though...
The iphone-size version is only 99 cents. I don't know how it works with the ipad mini, I guess you pay for the HD version, which would be not so great. On my 9" Android tablet, I've been playing the regular game instead of the HD (the HD is $2.99 for Android as well) and it looks fantastic, I cannot figure out what I'd be getting with the $2.99 Android version that I'm not getting on the ad-supported free version (I'm probably going to end up buying the ad-free upsell for 99 cents when they update to Hoth). I haven't put the game on my phone or ipod though, it seems like with as much stuff going on here it'd be hard on a 3.5" or 4.3" screen, plus I've been staying home with a chest cold so no reason to put it on a more mobile device yet.
I finished all 80 levels plus all 5 droids levels, now I'm working on maxing out stars so I can get the last 2 bonus levels. I don't know if I'll get Dagobah, turns out when you finish your Luke bird gets a better lightsaber, so I am sorta tempted, but $2 for 40 levels is a joke.
I accidentally used 2 of the Mighty Falcons in 1 level (they are sleazy putting the pause button next to the Falcon button) and it's not that great, you still have to fling something, it's just a harder hit once it gets there.

May 3, Warren County in northwest PA: At 6:01 a turkey gobbled about 125 yards to my north, and I responded with a soft call. He answered back, but sounded like he was on the ground and headed for a field at my back. On Tuesday I had called four down along the edge of the field, but had no shot, so I turned to make sure I could cover that this morning. I didn't move much, but when I did, a big gobbler flushed from a tree about 35 yards away -- I didn't know he was there because he had never opened his mouth, and he was roosting right where two trees crossed so I didn't see him.
There were still 2 gobblers, but instead of coming right to me, they went into another field across the ravine. I could see them fanning out and gobbling, about 150 yards away. They would answer, but seemed to want to stay in the field. So, I got aggressive. I began yelping, cutting, purring, and clucking loudly on the little custom scratchbox I make. I went on for a full minute, and really got them fired up. They came to the edge of the woods, about 100 yards away, and they stopped there. So, I fired up my call again, and here they come. I stopped calling and watched.
When they got into the ravine and I couldn't see them, I started what I figured would be my last series of calls. They came across the ravine in a heartbeat and at 35 yards one of them took a load of #5 shot. He went down hard enough that I didn't need to hurry over there. He dropped right under the tree the silent one had been roosted in. Now, his buddy flew off in the same direction.
PA Tag #1 is filled (6:48 AM, 19 pounds, 9-inch beard. He had 1 broken spur and the other was a sharp 1" long). A nice 2-year old; maybe 3.
May 17, Washington County in southwest PA: I was hunting with the NWTF "Energy Hunt" group when I took my #2 Gobbler for the year. I had three days, and got him at 9:30 on day 3. We hunted in the mornings and had an "energy" tour in the afternoons. We went to a Marcellus drilling rig, a coal mine subsidence site, and a pipeline right-of-way to learn about how the energy companies work with the PGC and the NWTF to make sure energy production has a positive outcome for wildlife.
Up until Day 3 of the hunt the group got only one bird, killed by a guy from Consol Energy. On the third and last day I hunted with a local guide named Mike. We got into the spot at 5:30 and the gobbler sounded off at the end of the field. He flew down and minded his hens (2 of them) while another gobbler watched. He only occasionally responded to our calls, but shock gobbled every time Mike blew on the crow call. They came toward us around 8:00, but stopped at about 55-60 yards and turned back the way they came.
While they were gone, Mike put a jake fan right in front of me at the edge of the field. Later they came back to the 60 yard mark, and saw the jake fan. The gobblers wouldn't take their eyes off it, but the hens just kept feeding. After the hens walked back the way they came, the gobblers hung around, drifting to about 25 yards. Mike said not to shoot the one that wasn't strutting; he could see the spurs weren't very impressive. So I focused on the strutter. He went to my right, and when a bunch of grass screened my movement, I s-l-o-w-l-y brought my gun to the right and got on his head. When I filled his head with #5 shot he went right down and the other gobbler ran off.
He was a thing of beauty coming in at full strut in the sunlight. If it hadn't been for that jake fan, I doubt he would have come close enough. He would have followed those hens back across the field.
It took 4 hours, but it was worth it. My #2 gobbler had a 10" beard and thick, sharp spurs a strong 1¼" long. They didn't curve much, probably because they were so thick. No one had a scale, but everyone thought he was well over 20 pounds, and he was clearly bigger than my other gobbler. You can see in the photo that one toe had been broken and it curled outward. According to the NWTF info found here, this gobbler was probably 4 years old.
Hoping now to call one in for my nephew.
