Applied behavior analysis is a scientifically valid, systematic approach to behavior change that examines the variables that reliably influence socially important behaviors. Students interested in pursuing this post-baccalaureate certificate must hold a bachelor's degree in a related field.
Behavior analysis is used wherever people are interested in behavior change: consumer marketing, rehabilitation clinics, schools, prisons and athletic coaching.
Our course sequence, approved by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board, is relevant for all these areas, and some students who have completed the coursework are in graduate schools studying family therapy, industrial/organizational psychology and child development.
Behavior analysis is the only empirically validated therapy method for people with autism, and professional opportunities in that area are very encouraging. The Behavior Analyst Certification Board specifies that an assistant applied behavior analyst with appropriate training can design, implement and interpret the results of behavioral interventions for clients. Working with a board-certified behavior analyst, an assistant analyst can also teach paraprofessionals to carry out interventions.
Students completing the post-baccalaureate certificate in assistant applied behavior analysis take a minimum of four courses (12-15 credits).
Required courses:
Students who wish to work in the field as a board-certified assistant applied behavior analyst must hold a bachelor's degree in a related field, complete the required coursework, complete an intensive practicum experience and successfully complete the national certification exam.
With the prevalence of autism estimated by the Centers for Disease Control at 1 in 88 and rising, applied behavior analysis is one of the fastest growing professional areas in psychology. Applied behavior analysis is best known as the one empirically validated therapy for children with autism, according to the Office of the Surgeon General.

Description: Driver took the car out of a garage and only made it 35 feet, hit the driveway curb, popped a tire and went airborne. The worst part: the car didn't even belong to him. It belonged to a lady who just wanted him to safeguard the car. She had a buyer coming from Miami the next morning to but it for $150,000.

Active Standard ASTM C796 / C796M | Developed by Subcommittee: C09.23
Book of Standards Volume: 04.02
Historical (view previous versions of standard)
Significance and Use
This test method is used to develop data for comparison or compliance with the requirements of Specification C869.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method furnishes a way of measuring, in the laboratory, the performance of a foaming chemical to be used in producing foam (air cells) for making cellular concrete.
1.2 This test method includes the following:
1.2.1 Manufacture of laboratory quantities of cellular concrete.
1.2.2 Determination of the air content of the freshly prepared cellular concrete and of the hardened concrete after handling in conventional machinery.
1.2.3 Determination of the following properties of the hardened concrete: compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, density, and water absorption. It may not be necessary to study all of the above properties in all cases, depending on the proposed use of the material.
1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard.

Paella Vegetariana
Author Notes: Paired with a salad or steamed veggies, this dish is one of my favorite light-but-satisfying meals. I prefer using short grain brown rice for its texture, but other types of rice are fine, too-- just subtract 1/2 cup of liquid if you're using white rice. There are all kinds of great additions that can be used with this recipe: artichoke hearts, green beans, mushrooms, zucchini, fresh tomatoes, hearts of palm. And though it's not a traditionally Spanish touch, a hearty splash of vinegary pepper sauce (like Tabasco or Crystal) is a great way to add zing. - vvvanessa
Serves 4 as a main dish
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium carrot, diced
- 1 rib of celery, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup short grain brown rice
- 6 saffron threads
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 1/2 cups water or vegetable stock
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup frozen peas, defrosted
- 2 cups cooked garbanzo beans (one 15-ounce can, drained)
- 1/2 cup meaty green olives, pitted and halved (Spanish manzanillas or Italian cerignolas work well)
- fresh, chopped parsely
- lemon wedges
- Preheat oven to 375ºF.
- In a large, oven-safe sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté bay leaf, onions, garlic, carrots, and celery until almost tender, about 7 minutes.
- Add in red bell peppers and continue to cook until they begin to soften, about 4 more minutes.
- Add the rice and saffron. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, for another couple of minutes to get the rice lightly toasted.
- Mix tomato paste into water or stock. Add the combined liquids to the rice-vegetable base.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine well.
- Raise heat to high. Allow mixture to come to a boil for 2 minutes.
- Turn off the heat. Cover pan with an oven-safe lid or carefully cover with aluminum foil. Set pan in oven.
- Cook for 40-50 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed and rice is cooked through but still slightly al dente, not mushy.
- Remove pan from oven and carefully remove the cover. Gently stir in the peas, garbanzos, and olives. Return the pan to the oven uncovered for 5 minutes or just long enough for the peas, garbanzos, and olives to heat through.
- Serve with a sprinkling of fresh parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon.

When you love, whatever you do is because you want to do it. It becomes a pleasure, it's like a game, and you have fun with it. When you love, you don't expect something to happen; whatever happens is okay, and hardly anything disappoints you. (Don Miguel Ruiz)
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains. (Rumi)
The use of our intelligence quite properly gives us pleasure. In this respect the brain is like a muscle. When we think well, we feel good. Understanding is a kind of ecstasy. (Carl Sagan)
Pleasure is the least consequential... engagement and meaning are much more important. (Martin Seligman)
The pleasure that is in sorrow is sweeter than the pleasure of pleasure itself. (Percy Bysshe Shelley)

Some interesting stuff in there such as:
Take it for what it is.Looking back, would you change any of the things you said after signing that offer with the Phoenix Suns?
EG: Well, they came on to the table to give me this big contract, and that was a big motivation for the Hornets to step up and match. They did it and now they made me a big key of what they're doing, so that's what I looked forward to.

People like to drive on Austin Rivers for being cocky but EG kinda came across as such...
Eh, I have a feeling he'll get traded this year. Who would you possibly trade him for is the question?
I don't see anything bad he said in the interview. Jordan Hill was renting in Houston and so were a couple of other players from other NFL and NBA teams . I think he'll be ok and ball out this year.
I'm not saying anything is bad with renting. I'm wondering what exactly he meant by "out there, you have to rent." Not a very clear sentence.
He's talking about the housing market. How many times have you read in the last year that these players aren't getting back what they paid for these extravagant houses. I know Ive read it a bunch of Times.
Sometimes I think about how terribly he handled that free agent process, and then I watch this.^

In the offseason, it's a business. So it seems he was doing what was best for himself, but now that he is with the Hornets, he will play his best to win for the team that kept him.
Some make it as being "cocky" is wrong. Hell look where it led Kobe, so that with EG and Austin will be great for our team moving forward. That "I can;t be stopped and I'm the best," attitude will make our two future all-star guard un guardable.

CBS's "Face the Nation" host Bob Schieffer made an appearance on another Sunday show today: CNN's "Reliable Sources." At issue, Schieffer's interview with AG Eric Holder last Sunday, which was actually pre-recorded four days earlier, on July 7, at the annual Aspen Ideas Festival.
What Schieffer didn't ask was fodder on Fox News Channel last week, and that was Kurtz's first question today:
KURTZ: Let's start with the obvious question. Why did you not ask Eric Holder in that interview about this former Justice official's allegation that a case against the New Black Panther Party was dropped because of racial politics?
SCHIEFFER: Well, it's certainly a question that is a legitimate question to ask. And basically what happened was this all really became a story when the whistleblower came out and testified that he'd had to leave the Justice Department and so on. And, frankly, had I known about that, I would have asked the question.
I was on vacation that week. This happened -- apparently, it got very little publicity. And, you know, I just didn't know about it.
And later, what Schieffer finds "absurd" about some of the Fox News coverage.
KURTZ: One last point on this Black Panther case. Fox's Bill O'Reilly making the point that none of the network newscasts have covered this story. He says: The network newscasts are not being honest about news because their agenda is to protect President Obama. Your thoughts?
SCHIEFFER: Well, I think the reason that there hasn't been much coverage on it is there is a question about how significant this really is. I think it is -- you know, the coverage or lack of coverage has to do with editors' news judgment. It doesn't have anything to do with protecting President Obama. And I mean, I think, frankly, that's absurd on the face of it.

Jezebel, Queen of Israel | |
Jezebel and Ahab meeting Elijah, print by Sir Francis Dicksee (1853-1928)
Spouse(s) | King Ahab |
Children | Ahaziah, Jehoram, and Athaliah |
Parents | Ithobaal I |
Jezebel (/ˈdʒɛzəbəl/,[1] Hebrew: אִיזֶבֶל / אִיזָבֶל, Modern Izével / Izável Tiberian ʾÎzéḇel / ʾÎzāḇel) (fl. 9th century BC) was a princess, identified in the Hebrew Book of Kings as the daughter of Ethbaal, King of Tyre (Phoenicia) and the wife of Ahab, king of north Israel.[2]
According to the biblical accounts, Jezebel incited her husband King Ahab to abandon the worship of Yahweh and encourage worship of the deities Baal and Asherah instead. Jezebel is said to have persecuted the prophets of Yahweh, and to have fabricated false evidence of blasphemy against an innocent landowner who refused to sell his property to King Ahab, causing the landowner to be put to death. For these transgressions against the God and people of Israel, the Bible relates, Jezebel met a gruesome death - thrown out of a window by members of her own court retinue, and the flesh of her corpse eaten by stray dogs.
Jezebel became associated with false prophets. In some interpretations, her dressing in finery and putting on makeup before her death [3] led to the association of use of cosmetics with "painted women" or prostitutes. According to Israel Finkelstein, professor of archaeology at Tel Aviv University, apart from the names of rulers and some of the buildings and battles mentioned, the Biblical stories of Jezebel and her family contain "very little verifiable historical material".[4]
Meaning of name[edit]
Jezebel is the Anglicized transliteration of the Hebrew אִיזָבֶל ('Izevel/'Izavel). The Oxford Guide to People & Places of the Bible states that the name is "best understood as meaning 'Where is the Prince?'",[5] a ritual cry from worship ceremonies in honor of Baal during periods of the year when the god was considered to be in the underworld.
Scriptural account[edit]
Jezebel's story is told in 1st and 2nd Kings. She was a Phoenician princess, the daughter of Ethbaal, king of Tyre (1 Kings 16:31 says she was "Sidonian", which is a biblical term for Phoenicians in general).[5] According to genealogies given in Josephus and other classical sources, she was the great-aunt of Dido, Queen of Carthage.[5] Jezebel married King Ahab of the Northern Kingdom (i.e. Israel during the time when ancient Israel was divided into Israel in the north and Judah in the south). Ahab was the son of King Omri, who had brought the northern Kingdom of Israel to great power, established Samaria as his capital, and whose historical existence is confirmed by ancient inscriptions on the Mesha Stele and the Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III.[4] According to the account in the Hebrew Bible, Ahab and Jezebel supported the worship of the deities Baal and Asherah, erecting shrines to them in Samaria, which was "evil in the sight of the Lord".[6] The Bible states that there was never anyone like Ahab, who sold himself to evil, incited by his wife.[7]
1 Kings 18 states that Jezebel had commanded that all the prophets of Yahweh in the kingdom of Israel be killed,[8] while entertaining "four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and four hundred prophets of Asherah" [9] at her royal table. Elijah, prophet of Yahweh, had escaped Jezebel's persecution, however, and confronted King Ahab, demanding that all the prophets of Baal and Asherah meet him at Mount Carmel for a competition.[9] The prophets of the pagan gods and Elijah met before "all the people",[10] and Elijah had two altars set up, one dedicated to Baal, one to Yahweh, and a bull sacrificed upon each altar. The supporters of Baal called upon their god to send fire to consume the sacrifice, but nothing happened. When Elijah called on Yahweh, fire came down from heaven immediately and consumed the offering, whereupon the crowd fell to the ground, crying "The Lord, he is the God." Elijah ordered the people to seize the prophets of Baal, and they were all slaughtered on his orders.[11] Jezebel swore to kill Elijah in revenge.[12]
1 Kings 21 contains the story of Naboth, who owned a vineyard near the royal palace of Ahab in the city of Jezreel. Wishing to acquire Naboth's vineyard so that he could expand his own gardens, Ahab offered to purchase Naboth's vineyard or to give him a better one in exchange, but Naboth refused to let Ahab have his family inheritance under any circumstances.[13] When Jezebel saw that her husband was upset and depressed by this obstacle to his plans, she concocted false evidence against Naboth and had the authorities in his town accuse him of blasphemy and stone him to death.[14] Ahab took possession of Naboth's vineyard,but he was confronted by Elijah, who prophesied to him that, owing to the way Ahab and Jezebel had plotted to have Naboth killed, Ahab would himself be killed, his royal line obliterated, and Jezebel would be eaten by dogs.[15]
Three years later, Ahab died in battle.[16] His son Ahaziah inherited the throne, but died as the result of an accident[17] and was succeeded by his brother Jehoram.[18]
2 Kings 9 states that the prophet Elisha, Elijah's successor, anointed Jehu, commander of Jehoram's army, as king, in order that he might destroy Ahab's descendants as a punishment for the way Jezebel had treated God's prophets and his people.[5][19] According to the biblical text, when Jehu confronted Jehoram in order to kill him, Jehu told him there could be no peace in Israel while his mother Jezebel's "whoredoms" (idolatry) and "witchcraft" continued.[20] Thereupon he shot Jehoram with an arrow, and ordered his body to be dumped on the plot of land that had belonged to Naboth which Ahab and Jezebel had stolen.[21]
Jehu then headed for the royal palace at Jezreel. Knowing that he was coming, Jezebel "painted her face and tired her head" (put on make-up and a wig or adornments in her hair) and looked out a window.[3] Jehu ordered her own servants to throw her from the window to her death, sprinkled her blood on the walls and on his horses, and trampled upon her corpse.[22] He then entered the palace where, after he ate and drank, he ordered Jezebel's body to be taken for burial, but his servants discovered only her skull, her feet and the palms of her hands - her flesh had been eaten by stray dogs, just as the prophet Elijah had prophesied.[23]
The marriage of King Ahab to the daughter of the ruler of the Phoenician empire, disapproved of by the biblical writers, was actually a sign of the northern Kingdom of Israel's power and prestige and a "brilliant stroke of international diplomacy", according to Israel Finkelstein,[4] who also writes that the inconsistencies and anachronisms in the biblical stories of Jezebel and Ahab mean that they must be considered "more of a historical novel than an accurate historical chronicle."[4] Among these inconsistencies, 1 Kings 20 states that "Ben-Hadad king of Aram" invaded Samaria during Ahab's reign, but this event did not happen until later in the history of Israel,[4] and 2 Kings 3:9 refers to a king of Edom at the time of Jehoram's reign, but there is no evidence of monarchy in Edom until a century after that.[4] The two books of Kings are part of the Deuteronomistic history, compiled more than two hundred years after the death of Jezebel, and are "obviously influenced by the theology of the seventh century BCE writers".[4] The compilers of the biblical accounts of Jezebel and her family were writing in the southern kingdom of Judah centuries after the events from a perspective of strict monotheism. The polytheism of the members of the Omride dynasty was sinful in the eyes of the biblical writers, and they were hostile to the northern kingdom and its history, with its rival center to Jerusalem, represented by Samaria.[4]
An ancient seal, discovered in 1964, may be inscribed with Jezebel's name.[24] [25] [26]
The popular historian Lesley Hazleton wrote a revisionist account, Jezebel, The Untold Story of the Bible's Harlot Queen (2004), that presents Jezebel as a sophisticated queen engaged in mortal combat with the fundamentalist prophet Elijah. Hazleton is also the author of several other non-fiction books about the Middle East.
Cultural symbol[edit]
The name Jezebel came to be associated with false prophets, and further associated by the early 20th century with fallen or abandoned women.[27] In Christian lore, a comparison to Jezebel suggested that a person was a pagan or an apostate masquerading as a servant of God. By manipulation and/or seduction, she misled the saints of God into sins of idolatry and sexual immorality.[28] In particular, Jezebel has come to be associated with promiscuity. In modern usage, the name of Jezebel is sometimes used as a synonym for sexually promiscuous and sometimes controlling women.[29][30] In his two-volume Guide to the Bible (1967 and 1969), Isaac Asimov describes Jezebel's last act: dressing in all her finery, make-up and jewelry, as deliberately symbolic, indicating her dignity, royal status and determination to go out of this life as a queen.[31]
In popular culture[edit]
- Bette Davis starred as an antebellum Southern Belle named Julie in New Orleans, Louisiana, in the film Jezebel (1938). Julie is told by her aunt that she makes her aunt think of "Jezebel, a woman who did evil in the sight of the Lord".[32]
- Frankie Laine recorded "Jezebel" (1951), written by Wayne Shanklin, which became a hit song.[33] The song begins:
If ever the Devil was born without a pair of horns
It was you, Jezebel, it was you
If ever an angel fell
Jezebel, it was you, Jezebel, it was you![34]
- Iron & Wine included a song named Jezebel on their 2005 EP Woman King. It contains many references to the biblical Jezebel.
- In his novel The Caves of Steel (1953, 1954), Isaac Asimov portrayed Jezebel as an ideal wife and woman who, in full compliance with the mores of the time, conscientiously promoted her own religion.[35]
- Paulette Goddard starred as the Biblical Queen Jezebel in the film Sins of Jezebel (1953).[36]
- The Gawker offshoot blog Jezebel (launched 2007) concerns mostly feminist issues and women's interests.[37]
- In the novel The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood, the brothel is called "Jezebel's" and prostitutes are Jezebels.[38]

text: | Hiding from the ChildrenDecember 29, 2011 - Jennifer BrookensMy work is done for the day, yet I'm avoiding going home. I need the break from winter break. It's so twisted that nearly every other week of the year, I daydream of what it'd be like to spend more time with my children. Yet on Day 4 of winter break, I was already looking forward to a few days of daycare. Then today was a daycare-free day. And Mommy nearly lost her mind. "I am NOT taking the couch apart to find the Lego head I recovered for you three times already!" "Stop chasing the cats behind the tree! You already knocked the star off the top!" "Whaddya mean you're bored?! How can you be bored with oodles of new toys, books and movies in just three days?! And why with all these new toys do you two end up fighting over a cardboard box?!!" I can't even use my usual winter break threat of, "Knock it off, or I'll throw you both into the snowdrift!" My best threat was putting them out on the porch with a sign that said "Kids for sale." (OK, maybe that was just for The Boy. For that to work with the girl, she'd actually have to change out of her pajamas). So yes, my time at the office is actually a respite of sorts. I can type or read a story online without an interruption to help look for a Lego head, fix a snack, or program Katy Perry into my daughter's new mp3 player. Silly thing is I know I shouldn't rush these times through, because once the January doldrums set in, I'll be longing for the days when I could just hang out with the kids... Until they start fighting over something inane and something of value gets destroyed. Ah, parenthood - just can't win sometimes. Article CommentsNo comments posted for this article.

5 TerrificWaddoo | 02/03/2010 | See all Waddoo's reviews (149)Top 100 Reviewer Top 10 Books Reviewer First time I've picked up a Patterson book- Really enjoyed this fast paced, murder spree of a novel. With the speed that the author seems to turn out his work, in hindsight I can see that the character development itsn't as in depth as I would like to see- however this is a terrific read and I will be reading more from the author.
5 Fantasticsweetpealaura | 16/06/2011 | See all sweetpealaura's reviews (13)This is a fantastic read. If i was to recommed any James Patterson books it would be the Mike Bennett series. They are fast and active. Never a dull moment with this book.
5 ABSOLUTLEY AMAZINGcjmummy | 03/08/2010 | See all cjmummy's reviews (1)I have read quite a lot of Patterson's book and found this to be one of the best yet, I couldnt wait to see what happened next with each turn of the page, with an fantastic twist to the end! I would highly recommend it.
5 Another fab read from James Patterson!Vivstar | 10/04/2010 | See all Vivstar's reviews (1)As always, James Patterson does not disappoint with Run For Your Life. It's just like his others - fast paced, thrilling, un-put-downable! A new hero is introduced in the form of Mike Bennett - a refreshing new character which I'm sure will excite us for many books to come!
5 Mike Bennett- what a hero!MaggieRaz | 24/03/2010 | See all MaggieRaz's reviews (5)Loved Step on a Crack and this book which follows the same detective did not disappoint.Love the pace of Pattersons books

I'm new around here, so I figured I'd share something I made with ya'll. It's my calorie and macronutrient counting spreadsheet.
It's really easy to use
1.) Copy the food from the list at the top. Copy columns A thru G (food name, calories, fat, carbs, and protien)
2.) Paste the food down in the bottom under whatever meal you ate it in.
3.) Right next to where you pasted the food, enter the number of servings you had.
4.) If you need to add more foods to the master list at the top, just simply insert a row and enter the food name, calories, fat, carbs, and protien.
5.) The program figures the rest out for you.
No, just go to the bottom of the page where it says "download link", and click on it.
Damn, no one liked my work. Oh well, I like it.
not bad. i like how it has it seperated into each meal and it shows the fat carbs and protien for each
I think it would work better if the food macros were on a differnt sheet.
I dont get the workout day no workout day sheets though

Oops, sorry about that. I only use the first page. I should have deleted the next couple pages. I was just trying to plan out meals for a whole week, but that kind of came to a halt. I just plan my meals using the first page in the morning, then I eat! I thought it was a cool little program. I always used fitday.com before, and I thought that wasn't that good honestly.

The End of 3He As We Know It for
National Security Applications
Richard Kouzes, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory , Richland, WashingtonPhysics Division Seminar
11:00 AM — 12:00 PM, Building 6008, Conference Room
Contact: Alfredo Galindo-Uribarri (firstname.lastname@example.com), 865.574.6124
Within the last decade, the amount of available 3He has become limited, while the demand has significantly increased, especially for science and national security applications. The largest demand for 3He is in gas proportional counters for neutron detection. No other currently available detection technology offers the stability, sensitivity, and gamma/neutron discrimination of 3He neutron tubes. Such neutron detectors are used in many applications including neutron scattering research, international and homeland security, defense applications, and well logging. The limited supply has curtailed use of 3He; therefore, alternative neutron detection technologies must be implemented. The production of 3He from tritium decay has declined as the nuclear weapons stockpile has been reduced, resulting in a lowered need for tritium to maintain the stockpile. The worldwide, steady state production of 3Hee is about 10-20 kliter/y, while the demand is much higher. This has driven the search for alternate neutron detection technologies to replace the use of 3He. One of the two large uses for 3He has been in radiation portal monitors deployed for homeland security both domestically and internationally. This use is no longer permitted by U.S. government policy. Thus, an alternative had to be found and deployed over a short period of time. The nuclear physics community successfully met this challenge. This talk will provide an overview of the 3He supply problem and the application of neutron detectors to national security.

I was re-running my discs from the series "3 Centuries of Grand Opera" and came across "Mon coeur s'ouvre a ta voix". This aria for female voice has always interested me partly because it's one of the few memorable ones that's not for soprano, and partly because it foreshadows Delila's eventual betrayal so well by those chilly little eddies in the orchestra in the second half.
Anyway, I thought it would be interesting to get the words, so I googled the lyrics. I found two things of interest. The first is that you don't want to translate the French. It's sickeningly sweet overblown, you might say fly-blown, romance. The second was Maria Callas.
Now last I heard, Maria Callas was a soprano, yet here she is singing a mezzo aria if not an actual contralto one. (I think it's supposed to be for mezzo, but I'm open to correction here). She does a good job, too. Not in the soprano range, but in the mezzo range, albeit on the high side.
I've read several rude reviews of Ms Callas' singing over the years, but I have her in "The Barber of Seville" (as a soprano) where she does an excellent job in the role of Rosina, and now this aria from "Samson and Delilah" as a mezzo. I am left to wonder if the critics were rude because she's a good-looking woman with considerable talent.
I am also left wondering just how common it is for singers to go outside their nominal range. The only other instance I can think of is the legend of Caruso and the Coat Aria (from "La Boheme") where he sang a baritone aria for a singer who suddenly lost his voice.
Any comments from O.T. and Piq?
