What is the closest anyone has ever stalked a deer, before being detected? Is there such thing as "competitive stalking?"

Well, the first deer I shot in Colorado got so close all I could see was blurry hair in my 6x scope.
I split the difference between daylight on top, and daylight on the bottom.
And a 165 grain 30-06 bullet broke his neck.
His nose was inches from my boot where he fell.
But, I wasn't stalking, I was setting with my back to a little aspen tree.
Competitive stalking?
No, I don't think so.

Competitive stalking? Sure - it's what wolves, pumas and coyotes do every day...:D

I'm terrible at sneaking up on deer or elk. If I can't figure out how to make them come up to me, they get away pretty regular.
I did see a doe and two fawns on the other side of a big ponderosa pine while still hunting. It was the last day of muzzleloading season and although I was really hunting elk, I had a doe deer tag too. One fawn came out and walked past me from behind the tree. I was SURE the doe was behind the 1st fawn so I shot as soon as I saw ears and fur out about 6' away. I was frozen in place by the 1st fawn right next to me so I couldn't really move around to see anything but through my sights.
Bad move as it was the other fawn. .54" conical shot chest through left thigh. Broke the shoulder, high up all the left side ribs and left femur right at the hip. A lot of messed up meat.
I harvested about a half a veal.
Now, I try to get them to stand back at least a couple of yards.

I saw a pretty little buck one drizzly day and tracked along behind him. Wet grass and leaves made it easy to be quite silent. Finally saw his rump sticking out of a clump of brush as he looked out over a meadow. I kept easing along.
At about ten feet, I pitched a marble-sized rock onto his rump. Mucho entertainment. :D

When I was a kid we used to make a game out of it in Wyoming. We would each be designated a color of paint and we would get points for deer we painted in the river bottom. In the evening, they would come out into a big hay feild and we would determine the victor. we decided 50pts for hitting one with a paintbrush tied to a stick and 100pts for a hand print. I got quite good at it and eventually went for only hand prints, I got 4 in one day. The most effective way was to 'go indian,' we would strip to our underwear, take our shoes off, and smear ourselves with mud to camoflauge and mask sent. Deer can hear clothing brushing together and it was my belief that they could smell my breath so I ate what they ate before I would close the distance. My buddy got the bad end of it one day when an old doe didn't think it was funny, he got 15 stiches and we were told to leave them alone.

While hunting fall turkeys in PA,I was sitting beside a tree on a ridge.At sunrise a buck came walking up the hill.He looked like he had been "partying".As he passed on the other side of the tree I jumped out and said "Boo".He went vertical and took off.It was hilarious.

Fred Bear stalked a doe close enough to slap it on it's rump,or so the story goes. The closest I ever came was kicking at a big hog in Florida. I didn't connect,he caught movement and jumped sideways,and I wound up on my back. I laughed so hard I nearly wet my pants as the pig ran off,squealing and grunting.
June 6, 2014, 01:06 AM
I had a doe run right up to me and spew deer spittle/snot all over my face when she realized I wasn't a bush.
I've never stalked anything close enough to tell the tale, though.

Stalked a doe to within 12' or so, belly crawling through tall lush July grass, starting out maybe 75 yds away. Sun in her eyes, wind toward me. No rifle.
I was fully clothed, baseball cap to hide my eyes and shade my face. Took maybe an hour.
As I got closer -say 30yds out- I noticed she'd stop feeding more often to look around. Closer yet, she'd spend more time sniffing and scanning than eating. At some point, movement was an inch at a time, then 1/4", then less. She'd probably hard a faint rustle or noticed the grass moving mysteriously. By then I'm just barely and only occasionally keeping an eye on her. Taking 30 second breaks between moves.
I chickened out at 4 yards and stood up. Foooom, she did a 1/4 turn, took three giant strides and entered thick cover.
The experience will stay with me forever.
25cschaefer: Dabbing handprints, now that's stalking.
Nice job bkb0000.

Another "game" we played was a real life version of whack-a-mole. We would lie on our bellies near a prairie dog hole with a peanut butter sandwitch and ball peen hammer. In the spring they are not very smart and come out of their holes with their noses in the air with absolute pleasure on their face, smelling their favorite food... whack! My friend and I got 20 each one day, and bad sunburns, but it was fun. Sometimes it took 30 seconds, sometimes 20minutes. They smarten up pretty quick though.
June 6, 2014, 07:06 AM
I've touched a living, wild deer, but, am afriad it was suffering from the "blue tongue" disease whitetails occasionally succumb to in these parts. Barring that experience, there have been other times I've gotten extremely close (10 ft? less?) One incident that always sticks out in my head was a hunt ofnthe family ranch. I was on an ATV, scouting out some draws, wondering if I should hunt them. I noticed some mule deer does roughly 50 yards below me, and a bit ahead of me. They were already aware of my presence obviously, from the sound of the ATV. However, the ATV was ALL they were seemingly worried about....I slipped off the opposite side of the atv, and started making a wide circle towards the deer. They were enthralled by the ATV, and never paid me any mind til I yelled "HEY" with the barrel of my 7mm all but touching them at that point! I didnt take the shot as I had no interest in a doe at that point, but enjoyed seeing how close I could get while they were distracted

I've gotten within feet of several deer. Some were me sneaking up on them, some were me sitting still and them walking into me.
I am teaching my son how to sneak up on animals, using the rabbits and birds in our backyard. I can get to within about 12-15 feet before they take off. My son? At fifty feet he starts to run, thinking he can catch them.
Now my favorite story. I was up in a tree, leaning in the fork of it, bowhunting deer. It was a warm October morning, early bow season here in Ohio. Sitting right on top of a trail, I wasn't going to blow it by fidgeting. That's how the squirrel got there. He was moving around in the tree, sometimes kinda close to me. Then he got on the branch of the fork I was in. Having visions of being bitten and clawed by a scared squirrel, I figured I'd give a little twitch and cough before he got within biting/clawing/chewing wrong nuts range. He came unglued. Took a flying leap out of the tree, flopped around a time or two as he landed, then sat on the ground screaming at me for a while. I had to laugh. Usually it's me on the ground and the squirrel in the tree.

My little old buck spun through his own bunghole and came by me at about five feet. Nose stuck out, ears laid back, fifth gear overdrive. My raucous laughter was likely somewhat unsettling, as well. :D
As far as a critter coming close: I was sitting on the ground, leaned up against a tree and watching an open area, hoping for Bambi. I caught a flicker of motion about ten yards away. Fox. So, I lip-squeaked like unto a little mousie. He'd dart closer, stop, and listen. I'd squeak. He finally came close enough that I boinked him in the nose with my boot toe. HAIR! Stuck out all over. Tail like a bottle brush. And a rapid effort to be elsewhere at a high rate of speed. :)
June 6, 2014, 12:17 PM
If the conditions are right I can almost always sneak to within 10 or 15 yards of a wild hog. Deer are A different story but like Art I've caught a few that were day dreaming and got within spitting distance.
June 6, 2014, 12:22 PM
I got to within no more than 15 feet of a nice young bull elk on my very first hunting trip. I had a cow tag...
June 6, 2014, 01:33 PM
Bedded elk in thick cover can be plum ignorant especially during the middle of the day. I've been within a herd at very close range on multiple occasions during elk sleepy time midday. The secret to that game tends to be knowing where they are bedded and planning your stalk with everything in your favor. However I have still hunted my way into bedded elk by accident on occasion as well.
June 6, 2014, 02:39 PM
I was walking into the wind and heard him off to my left in the brush. I froze in place and he came out of the scrub oak on my left and slightly behind me. He crossed the trail behind me and I slowly turned around. He looked at me, sniffed the air and slowly walked across the path and back into the brush. Pretty awesome to be that close.
June 6, 2014, 03:15 PM
I've never actually stalked close to anything, but have had game animals stalk, or walk very close to a few times. Twice I've had whitetail doe almost close enough to touch.
Once while quail hunting 4-5 does were loping along at a fast trot towards me. I simply froze behind a small 6' pine sapling. When the lead doe came past the tree we were inches apart before she saw me. All of them scattered. I had another very similar situation a few years later.
I've had coyote, bobcat and foxes come to my turkey and duck calls and get fairly close.
The only real attempt at stalking, unsuccessful, was a roughly 250 lb black bear. I was really deer hunting with a 50# recurve when I rounded a bend on the trail I was walking and saw the bear ahead of me about 50 yards away. We were walking in the same direction, the ground was wet and the wind in my favor. I paused a second and considered just going somewhere else. But the bear was legal to take and I decided to give it a shot. I followed him for about 100 yards. Pausing when he stopped, and trying to close ground when he moved. I never got close enough for a comfortable shot. After about 100 yards he moved off the trail to my left. I did the same, walked about 30 yards and sat there the rest of the morning, but never did see him again.
June 6, 2014, 08:10 PM
It's been quite a few years ago, but I once glassed a nice mule deer buck up on top of a hill a couple miles away. When I did the stalk into the wind, I ended up almost stepping on him in his bed. I didn't know I was on top of him though, I thought I had a ways to go yet. He stood up and nearly ran into me, I looked down the barrel, practically stuck the barrel in his rib cage actually, pulled the trigger, dead and down.
Don't know if that counts or not, but ya, I've gotten pretty darn close a time or two.
June 6, 2014, 08:15 PM
3212, my wife and I had a similar experience while fall turkey hunting once. We had a doe and fawn standing right behind us, no more than 5'. She knew we were there though, she was snorting and stomping her feet. We had to get up and move away, she was really upset. We killed our birds at day light that morning too!
I've actually had numerous very close encounters, thus my screen name.
June 6, 2014, 09:00 PM
The closest ive ever been while actually stalking was a little fawn muley that i was hunting with a camera. I dont know the exact distance, but it couldnt have been more then 20 yards. I also was stalking (huffing and puffing trying to get in front of) a herd of elk. As i walked up over a rise, eyes firmly fixed on the elk, i noticed a huge black mass real close to me. I stopped and looked over to find a big black bear at not more then 15 yards, we stood there and stared at eachother for what seemed like an hour (probably 2 minutes max) and then he got up and calmly walked away. The closest ive ever been to an animal while hunting was a bobcat that i lip squeaked at while archery deer hunting, he promptly closed the distance to between 5 and 6 yards. He now graces my wall.

Pat86323, back in the 80's I was out on Willard Springs road hunting for my bull elk. I shot him within about 20 yards of the truck, actually my buddy was with me and we both dropped our bulls right there.
Another time I was walking out to the rim, Willard Spring again, and I turned around to look cause I heard something behind me, it was a little bitty doe, a couse deer. She followed me for a long time. Every time I stopped, she stopped, this went on for a good 30 minutes. Then when I got to the rim, over looking slide rock actually, I almost got run over by a bear as it came down a tree in one of the finger canyons off the rim. That was an interesting day, didn't get the bear, should have, but I panicked.

Years and years ago my son read somewhere that Native American kids were taught to stalk deer, and the proof of success was a pinch of plucked tail or ear hair. Whether that was ever the case I don't know, but I have watched him over the years since perfecting the skill of stalking. He can routinely get within 10 feet or so. The process may take hours. I'm thinking that most of us lack that kind of desire or determination.
Pre firearm, pre bow, pre at latyl, (sp?) that kind of skill was needed with a spear.
June 8, 2014, 12:29 AM
I never have stalked a deer. I have lucked out and waited one out and surprised a few others but in any case about 25 yards is the closest. stalking elk, I was able to get about 100 yards.
June 8, 2014, 12:42 AM
I stalked and shot a whitetail with my bow at about 10 or 12 yards once.
Another time I was stalking and I eased up behind a tree that had a "Y" in it that was just about chest height this put my head right in the "Y". It was cool because the tree covered my body but I could see everything past it through the "Y".
So as I eased up to the tree a bunch of deer got spooked by something on the next ridge and they ran right into my lap. The deer walked right up to the tree I was behind. My head was in the gap of the "Y" and I watched them walk right up to me as they "fled the danger" on the last ridge. It was everything I could do to not laugh I could've plucked hair off of them as they walked past me.
Several other time I've had them just about in my lap while sitting in the weeds on the edge of a field. I always find it difficult to not laugh when they get that close I guess the absurdity of the whole thing amuses me its like "how can you NOT know that I'm sitting right here?!"
June 8, 2014, 12:49 AM
So many great experiences.
Love this thread!
June 8, 2014, 05:56 PM
This definitely doesn't qualify as stalking, but one time many years ago, I had laid down beside a large fallen tree next to a water hole, early, early in the morning hoping to ambush a fall turkey. I had some what dozed off when I noticed this rumbling, it got louder and louder. Just as I was about to lift my head up to see what was coming my way, a massive heard of elk came running at full tilt and jumping straight over me, and into the water. Scared the heck out of me. I didn't dare move for fear they would freak out and stomp me to death. They played in the water for a few minutes, which seemed like an eternity, then they came running straight back over the top of me again, this time I was on their approach side so I had hooves brushing over me. Afterward, I got the heck out of there and decided to change my fall turkey tactics.
June 9, 2014, 10:26 AM
Stalking to within a few feet of a unalerted deer is easy if the conditions are right. When the conditions are wrong it is impossible.

My personal best stalk was on a gang of turkeys in the fall. A new snow had left about 2 inches when I came upon their tracks. It was one of those late fall days when muzzleloading deer season and turkey season coincide. I had my deer rifle, a Jim Chambers flintlock longrifle, 44" swamped barrel, .50 caliber. When I found the tracks, they were extremely fresh, the air still, but I could not detect the sound of contented birds scratching for acorns. After an hour of following the tracks (I figured there were about 10 birds), I saw them before they saw me. They were just crossing a low ridge. That last few minutes are the ones I dream about still today. They were talking to each other and scratching. A perfect overcast day with light snow. Crawling on my belly, I occasionally caught a glimpse of a bobbing head and realized they had changed directions and coming toward me at an angle. I lay in the snow and waited. One big hen scratched her way into a spot where very little movement was needed to align the sights at the base of her neck. Distance was about 30 yards. At the crack of the rifle, a lot more than 10 turkeys took flight, obscured somewhat by the cloud of white smoke from my Goex load of 70 grains. I didn't see the one I'd shot at. Didn't know how I might have missed. The spark of the new flint and the report of the rifle was simultaneous. After walking to where they'd been, I saw her spread out on the snow, her neck broken. A 20lb. bird. That was the one and only turkey I have managed to take after a stalk and not using a call. A great day and a tasty meal.
June 10, 2014, 09:19 AM
After walking to where they'd been, I saw her spread out on the snow, her neck broken. A 20lb. bird.
That would have made her a world record @ twice the weight of most large adult hens.
June 10, 2014, 10:01 AM
pre gun season got within 10 yards of a bachelor group of whitetails, just kinda hunched over moved when all the heads were down, pretty sure they were all first yr deer, unmowed powerline a little over waste high, had good cover an had the wind in my face

Are hens really that much smaller than toms? I'm new to turkey hunting and have only shot one tom. He weighed 26 lbs. I've never shot a hen so I don't have any basis (other than eye sight) to compare. Thanks for the info.
June 10, 2014, 02:00 PM
Learn something every day. According to the NWTF, hens are normally between 8 and 10 lbs. I obviously didn't know that.
Getting back on track, I'm a newbie hunter. I'm still practicing and the closest I've gotten actually stalking deer is about 60 yards. They knew something was approaching but couldn't seem to figure out it was me. It is the only time I have heard deer call to each other. They were making quite a racket calling to each other. That episode lasted about 10 minutes.
I've had some deer walk to within 20 yards of me. At that distance they seem to notice eyes and one blink sends them scurrying away.

Kangarila Road winery, located in the McLaren Value appellation of Australia, has been producing wines since it acquired its land back in 1997. Owner, Kevin O'Brien prides himself in producing everyday wines that have a distinct reflection of the down-under attitude, flare and style.
Priced to be relatively affordable, these wines fall into the $14-25 range, depending on where you buy them, if they're on sale, etc. They've constantly scored into the 90s by both Wine Spectator and Robert Parker's Wine Advocate – so some good scores for our brethren from the southern hemisphere.
2005 Chardonnay – W.E.P. Rating: 100%
Technical Data:
- Blend: 100% Chardonnay
- Total Acidity: 7.25 g/L
- Alcohol: 13.5
- ph: 3.30
- Residual Sugar: 3.0g/L
- Bottling Date: August 2005
- Appellation: McLaren Vale
- Price: $18
Nose: Pineapple, coconut, pina-colada, orange zest, kiwi and starfruit. I'm also getting a woody-smell, sort of like misquite wood.
Taste: Here comes all that tropical fruit and coconut I got on the nose along with an odd, quirky-but-I-dig-on-it pocket lint-laden pineapple tart aftertaste. This is one of the more complex Chardonnay's I've had in awhile – it has so many layers of flavors which present a very unique wine experience. It has so many of the components that I know fans of this grape will enjoy.
2005 Viognier – W.E.P. Rating: 85%
Technical Data:
- Blend: 100% Viognier
- Total: Acidity: 7.15g/L
- Alcohol: 14%
- ph: 3.30
- Residual Sugar: 3.0 g/L
- Bottling Date: August 2005
- Appellation: McLaren Vale
- Price: $18
Nose: Floral-funk, river-rock, hints of apple peel, apritcot and spice.
Taste: Sharp, intense lemon-peel on the front which is coddled by some nice floral action. A very acidic back-end which makes this wine lend itself to being food-friendly, however, it is a bit too hot for me.
2006 Cabernet Sauvignon – W.E.P. Rating: 80%
Technical Data:
- Blend: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
- Alcohol: 14.0 %
- Total Acidity (G/L): 6.95
- Residual Sugar (G/L): 0
- Bottling Date: May 2007
- Appellation: McLaren Vale
- Size: 750 mL
- Price: $22
Nose: Bright cherry fruit-bomb – along w/ that same dusty funk I got in the white wines. I also get hints of Capt. Crunchberries, red vines, and berry pop-rocks.
Taste: So the berries on the nose take a nose-dive straight into an asphalt truck while the guys working the paver machine all smoke cigars. Hints of rhubarb, black pepper, cola and spice on the finish which doesn't last near as long as I like in my cabs.
2005 Shiraz – W.E.P. Rating: 120%
- Blend: 100 % Shiraz
- Alcohol: 14.5%
- Total Acidity (G/L): 7.0
- ph: 3.56
- Residual Sugar (G/L): 0
- Bottling Date: January 2006
- Appellation: McLaren Vale
- Size: 750 mL
- Price: $22
Nose: Nice attack of cherri cola, bubble gum, chalk, cocoa, starburst candy and a bit of forest floor.
Taste: Good amount of bright fruit and dark fruit coming through on the front – cherries, blueberry, I do get quite a bit of attic dust in the mix as well. On the finish, there are lingering blueberries, tobacco and tar. Not a bad effort – but the acidity of this wine will kill it for some folks out there. To me, it has the classic Australian Shiraz profile that I like.

Why I Envy Young Nuns
I have a vinyl sticker on the back window of my car that reads, Jesus Inside. It's an effective conversation starter because it frequently invites teasing: "So, where does Jesus sit?" "Hey, did you know Jesus is inside your parked car?"
That decal came to mind while I read this weekend about young Catholic women who have joined the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia in Nashville. This year, the traditional convent, replete with flowing black-and-white habits, is accepting a novitiate class that, at 27 women, is the largest in the U.S. The women are joining a convent whose median age is 36. At the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist, another thriving and traditional convent in Ann Arbor, the average age is about 28. Sisters of Mary reports a highly educated new class of 22 candidates, including one Harvard graduate who spoke in Latin about her decision to take vows during her commencement speech. These young nuns-in-training are taking a modern path back to a traditional way of serving God.
Many Protestant women lack a precise spiritual equivalent to joining a convent. Many, of course, have shown sacrifice and dedication in various ways, such as overseas missions work and teaching at third-world schools. But others of us, including myself, lack a clear path to establishing lives of devotion. I am a woman devoted to God, and, incidentally, chaste. But I wonder how many situations I have been in where nobody knows that about me. Is my vinyl decal acting as my Protestant nun's habit?.
Some of the older sisters quoted in the AP article theorize that young women want to do something "radical" for God. As a young woman trying to figure out the fundamentals of life—where I'll live, who I'll live with, where I'll work—I get that. Jesus doesn't naturally come up in my day-to-day conversations any more, and I occasionally feel as though I blend in with the world without trying.
I drive my car into a lot of situations, and my Jesus sticker is always there to catch others' eyes. I put it on my car after I graduated from a well-known Christian college in the Midwest. Since graduating, I've realized that while there, I took for granted that everyone knew I was a Christian. I didn't have to work to appear to be following Christ.
I think we Christians could put a little more work into standing out for Jesus. Sometimes, we have to make a point of separating ourselves for God to get others to even notice.
I hope that's the drive behind so many young women joining U.S. convents (and not because it's radically interesting to give up Starbucks and personalized clothing). One of the sisters at Sisters of Mary called this year's novitiate class "a vocation explosion." These days, when it comes to choosing a vocation—a choice many of us think we are making in college—economics are creating problems for a lot of recent college graduates. Last year, more women earned PhDs than men, yet only 51 percent of college graduates under age 25 are working in jobs that require college educations. So when a Harvard graduate joins a Dominican convent, maybe it's an acknowledgment that higher education is not going to help a 9.4 percent unemployment rate.

Reba (MCA Nashville)
Even those country fans not enamored of Reba's histrionic singing may enjoy this unusually lively album. A major reason is the tangy title song performed with Brooks & Dunn. Another enjoyable change is the up-tempo "Forever Love," which provides instrumental space for Reba's backup musicians, especially steel-guitar player Paul Franklin and keyboardist Jimmy Nichols. Not that Reba's huge corps of romance-oriented fans won't find something to admire. "I'll Give You Something to Miss," for instance, is an effectively glib, angry-lover song: "I'm gonna catch my breath, I'm gonna count to ten/I'm gonna leave you wonderin' when you'll see me again." Reba may have lost her "McEntire"—putting her in the same category as such hype-centered uninominal divas as Madonna, Cher and Charo—but she has gained career momentum; she will next sing on an album inspired by Steven Spielberg's animated religious movie The Prince of Egypt. Our Reba isn't just a simple Oklahoma girl anymore; but change, like travel, can be broadening.

River Effects: The Waterways of Tasmania is an official component of Tasmania's Ten Days on the Island arts festival.
Start Date
11th Mar 2011
End Date
8th Apr 2011
Academy Gallery
RSVP / Contact Information
Gallery exhibitions are always free and everyone is welcome. Open 9am to 5pm weekdays.
Exhibition artists: Raymond Arnold, Julie Gough, Leigh Hobba, Donald Lawrence, Geoff Parr, Kevin Perkins, Megan Perkins, Troy Ruffels, Marie Sierra, David Stephenson, Travis Tiddy, Martin Walch and Catherine Woo.
Exhibition curators: Malcom Bywaters & Noel Frankham
River Effects: The Waterways of Tasmania investigates the effects of the Tasmanian river system, its tributaries, lakes, harbours and beaches, on the people of Tasmania. The artists explore the concepts of the waterway culturally, politically and environmentally – as means of transport, sustainer of life, place for recreation and site of contestation. As carriers of histories, including major events in Tasmania such as the European settlements at Risdon Cove, Sullivans Cove and the Tamar River, struggles over Lake Pedder in the 1970s and the Gordon River in 1983, the Tasman Bridge collapse in 1974, and the Launceston floods of 1929, Tasmania's waterways are at the centre of our society. The exhibition will consider how these significant events have impacted on Tasmania and contributed to our state identity. River Effects: The Waterways of Tasmania will comprise works by contemporary Tasmanian artists interested in the ways in which people engage with their environment.
River Effects: The Waterways of Tasmania is a project of the University of Tasmania's School of Visual and Performing Arts, Launceston and the School of Art, Hobart.

I am hoping to do some freezer cooking soon and am wondering if anyone has frozen things with rice pasta? I am thinking a casserole type dish with pasta, ground beef, tomatoes, veggies and ricotta. Should I cook it part way or just mix it with tomato sauce and not cook it all before freezing? I don't want it all to turn to mush! Thanks!
Becky- Wife to DH, Mama to "Nani" (July '08) "Coco" (July '10) and Decker the Wrecker (May'13)
We used to eat Trader Joe's rice pasta. GAG. Now we eat Tinkyada rice pasta. Much more expensive, but definitely worth it.
I haven't frozen freezer dishes, but I have frozen leftover pasta. I put it on a cookie sheet covered with wax paper and spread it out. Once it is frozen I put it in ziplock bags. When my kids want pasta, I pull out how much they want. I coat it lightly with water, and microwave. Then I add sauce and they've got lunch. Pasta is fine that way.

Study: Women More Likely To Remove Tattoos Than Men Due To Social Stigma
Submitted by Carina Rose on Tue, 07/22/2008 - 09:02
The U.S. researchers found that women are more likely than men to remove their tattoos. Myrna L. Armstrong of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock, Texas and team of researchers conducted a research visiting tattoo removal clinics in Colorado, Massachusetts, Arizona and Texas.
The researchers found that 25 % of Americans between the ages of 18 to 30 years had at least one tattoo and they felt the number was likely to increase. They found that two thirds of the people in the clinic for tattoo removal were women and the reason for removal was due to the negative comments the tattoo drew or embarrassment, though the women stated that they were happy with their tattoo initially and with time changed their mind.
The findings were published in the Archives of Dermatology, and they listed the main reasons for seeking tattoo removal. 58 % of the people just decided to remove the tattoos; 57 percent suffered embarrassment; 38 percent reported a lowered body image; 38 because of a new job; 37 percent due to problems with clothes; 25 percent felt they experienced stigma; while 21 percent did it to mark an occasion, such as a birthday, marriage or just to feel independent.
In 2006, 44 percent of participants interviewed reported they got a tattoo in order to feel unique, 33 percent to feel independent and 28 percent wanted to make life experiences stand out. Today, the reason women are more likely than men to remove tattoos, is due to the social stigma and negative comments, U.S. researchers said.

Paizo Blog: Pathfinder Battles Preview: The Living Dead
Which brings me to today's preview of upcoming figures from the Shattered Star set of Pathfinder Battles prepainted plastic miniatures! The set supports the brand-new Shattered Star Adventure Path, which sets the players on a quest around Varisia to reunite an ancient artifact created by the progenitor of the Runelords. It's a sort of sequel to other Varisia-based Adventure Paths, including Rise of the Runelords, Curse of the Crimson Throne, and Second Darkness, but the campaign also stands alone as a self-contained Adventure Path.

MIKE MAGEE has played every position for Los Angeles this season - defender, midfielder, forward, even goalkeeper for one game. Yesterday, it was his scoring touch that gave the Galaxy an advantage in their playoff series against New York.
Magee scored the only goal of the match, off a long cross from David Beckham, in the 15th minute, giving the visiting Galaxy a 1-0 win against the Red Bulls in the first leg of the Western Conference semifinals.
Magee's goal enables Los Angeles to head home needing only a tie or a win on Thursday night to advance to the conference final. The Galaxy is 12-0-5 at home this season.

1482: Food security and climate change
This paper is summarised from the recommendations and conclusions of 'Achieving food security in the face of climate change' the final report from the Commission on Sustainable Agriculture and Climate Change chaired by Sir John Beddington.
Year of Publication2012
We need a sustainable global food system with climate-resilient agricultural production systems, efficient use of resources, improved marketing and distribution infrastructure, low-waste supply chains, and more consumer choice for healthy diets. Intensification of agricultural production must be accompanied by concerted action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture to avoid further acceleration of climate change and avert threats to the long-term viability of global agriculture. Making these changes, although technically feasible, requires urgent, collective and substantially increased action internationally, nationally, locally and individually.

Briggs and Stratton Vanguard Engines
A: Massive Engine Block and Head Castings are far heavier than those on lower quality engines. These provide greater strength and rigidity, plus lower vibration and noise levels.
B: Forged Steel Crankshaft has far higher strength than the cast iron shafts used on lower quality engines.
C: Heavy Duty Dual Ball Bearings support the crankshaft on both ends, rather than the single bearing commonly used. This gives longer life and higher power output because of reduced friction. It also makes engine starting much easier.
D: Heat Treated Steel Gears, rather than molded plastic used on lower grade engines.
E: Dura-Bore™ Cast Iron Cylinders for improved oil control and greatly increased leaf vacuum engine life.
F: Premium Lo-tone Exhaust System provides exceptional noise reduction.
G: Rugged 4-liter All-steel Fuel Tank with built-in fuel filter. Withstands the toughest working conditions and gives extended run times.
H: Dual Element High Capacity Air Cleaner captures harmful particles down to 5 microns in size. Combines a pleated media filter with debris ejection slots and foam pre-cleaner to provide maximum engine protection.
Consumer-grade engines are rated in foot pounds of torque, not horsepower. Briggs and Stratton Vanguard engines are rated in gross horsepower by
Briggs & Stratton per the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) specification J1940. To make comparing leaf vacuum engine power ratings
simpler, we also give you the torque rating in foot pounds for each
Cyclone Rake engine.
Horsepower and torque are not the same
When comparing engines, check the power ratings carefully.
Consumer-grade engines are rated in foot pounds of torque, not horsepower. While this rating technique results in a higher number
rating, it doesn't mean you're getting more power. For example the 6.5 HP Briggs and Stratton Vanguard engine on the Cyclone Rake Commander generates
9.1 foot pounds of torque.

Dear Chairman
Hello there, haven't had the pleasure of meeting you yet.
Just wanted to say what a fabulous job Mark Hughes is doing. Sixth you said and by golly Hughes has got the team playing at that level. Yes, yes, of course we could quibble about a result or two or three... well technically seven, but the point is the team is not losing and is only one of a handful of clubs in the entire five tiers of English Football that have only lost one game so far this season in the league.
Once more the issue of the Old Firm, Celtic and Rangers for the uninitiated, joining the Premier League has been raised and subsequently shot down. Not surprising really as it is not exactly in the self interest of the majority of the Premier League clubs to add two more clubs into the mix that could divert revenue even if this time the idea was broached in the context of adding a Premier League 2.
Today I'm going to step away from the subject of City and talk about the death of German national keeper Robert Enke. As is now well known the Hannover 96 net minder was killed by a train near his home on Tuesday evening. All indications are that the 32 year old committed suicide having left a note to that effect.
I've received a couple of polite enquires from long time readers about recent results and my thoughts. My infrequent posting is not a lack of opinion, far from it, but just an overwhelming sense of frustration. I'd much rather post positive thoughts about the team winning and players playing well than harp on the negative issues which have seemed so obvious to me for so long.

I watched it. Meh... Personally, i was expecting a lot more from Tito Ortiz. His fight with Rashad Evans just bored me. Sherk on the other hand was amazing, easily beating Franca to defend his lightweight belt. Silva was also very good. Had him winning going into the match.
I had high expectations for this one, but i was let down. Hopefully UFC 74 will be better.
Gorges St Pierre vs Josh Koschek in UFC 74 is what i am waiting for. God im already pumped up for this one.

2014 Alumni Directory Project
Call 1-800-676-1994 TODAY to update your information for the directory!
Common Questions About The Centenary College of Louisiana Alumni Today Publication
We thought it might be helpful to provide you with the answers to some of the questions you may have regarding the alumni directory project.
Why are you doing an alumni book?
A book will enable you to find and keep in touch with old friends and classmates. Also, because your name and biographical information will be listed along with those of other alumni, it will be easy for them to contact you. Finally, the project will assist the alumni office in keeping the most accurate and up-to-date records possible on all alumni so we can let you know what's happening at the school.
Why is the return address on the postcard a Virginia address?
We have partnered with Harris Connect, with offices in Virginia, to produce our new book. Harris Connect has been an industry leader for nearly 50 years and has produced over 4,000 books for a variety of colleges, universities, high schools, and membership associations.
When can I expect to hear from Harris Connect?
Over the next few months, you may receive postcards, emails or phone calls from Harris asking for updated contact information. We would appreciate your cooperation in updating your contact information. Harris Connect accepts and makes calls Monday through Friday, beginning at 8:00 a.m. and continuing until about 9:00 p.m., in all time zones. They may try to contact you at work during the day, or in the evening. If you are contacted at a time that is inconvenient for you, simply let the representative know. S/He will give you the Harris Connect toll-free number or will arrange to call you later.
Who should I contact if I have questions regarding the accuracy of my listing in the book?
You should contact Harris Connect directly, since they will be working to update our list. A dedicated a toll-free number will be created specifically for our alumni. You can use this number to verify or change your listing or to place a directory order.
What if I don't want to be listed in the book? What if I don't want certain pieces of information listed?
Harris Connect can still update your information for us, but will honor your specific request to exclude all or parts of your biographical data from the publication.
Are there different versions of the book? If I reserve a copy when can I expect to receive it?
The book will be available in a Hardbound edition and a Softbound edition. The difference between the two is the cover and the binding but the content is the same. There is also a CD-ROM version of the directory, or a combination of the CD and either the hardbound or softbound editions. Additionally, there is a Reunion CD, which contains alumni of your class and the surrounding 4 class years. Reservations are taken in advance and the publication is scheduled to reach you early next year.
How will Centenary College benefit from the project?
Harris is producing our directory at no cost to the organization. They put a lot of work into the research and production of the publication and we will receive an up-to-date database of all our alumni. This will be invaluable in helping us keep in touch.
What happens if I don't order a directory now, but change my mind later?
We have arranged to print as many books as are ordered before we go to press. So, if you do change your mind prior to publication, you can call the dedicated toll free update line.
What forms of payment will be accepted for the purchase of a directory?
The directory may be paid for by major credit card or check. Payment(s) may be made by credit card at the time of order or by check upon receipt of the invoice(s). Installment payment plans are also available, allowing you to pay a portion now and the rest later. Reunion CD must be paid in full by credit card. On most major credit card statements, HC will appear with the name of Centenary College.
What if I decide I want to cancel the order I have placed?
Orders for the directory may be canceled by calling the Harris Connect Customer Service Department at 1-800-877-6554. Be sure to provide the account number when canceling.

Beware of Obstructions in the Upstream...
It's All About Validation
Adapting to Evolving Business Environments Is...
Nothing Beats Immunoassays for Sensitivity, Specificity,...
In the years since Judge Rich's passing, some in the technology community (particularly those working in information technology) have cried out with increasing vehemence against the flood of "junk patents" they say have been granted improvidently by the PTO for subject matter they find obvious. This outcry inspired the chiefs of the PTO during the George W. Bush administration to incite patent examiners to increase the rate of rejection of patent applications.
Moreover, the Supreme Court has recalibrated the "nonobviousness" standard in U.S. patent law and seems to have raised the bar somewhat higher than Judge Rich would have preferred.
In the 2007 case of KSR Inc. v. Teleflex, the Court said that the hypothetical "person having ordinary skill in the art" described in section 103 should be taken as having "common sense" and not be thought of as merely an "automaton" who is unable to make a mental connection between two sources of prior art without a "teaching, suggestion or motivation" to do so. But this supersedes a countervailing concept Judge Rich had expressed in the 1985 Standard Oil v. Cyanamid case.
It is noteworthy that Judge Rich and his colleagues on the Court of Customs and Patent Appeals were transferred en masse to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) in October 1982 when Congress mandated those judges to decide appeals not only from the patent office but also patent cases that had been tried in a federal court anywhere in the U.S.
The goal was to create a unified American jurisprudence on patents, rather than a variety of views (frequently pro-competition but antipatent) as expressed by the regional federal circuits (except for the rare unifying decision by the Supreme Court).
The sense of Congress in 1981 and 1982 seemed to be that patents are a good thing and should be encouraged and made more predictable. The public regarded technology favorably, as exemplified by the IBM personal computer (remember those Charlie Chaplin ads?), and expected healthcare advances arising from biotechnology.
More recently, Congress has been singing a different song, to the tune of "patent reform." When I wrote about this in the April 1, 2011, issue of GEN, the Senate had passed a bill that was touted as being the first "overhaul" of patent law since Judge Rich's handiwork in 1952.
Since then, a similar bill has passed the House, now named the "Leahy-Smith America Invents Act." Despite hype about the magnitude of the proposed changes and the need to harmonize U.S. patent principles with those of other countries, the Leahy-Smith Act wouldn't touch a hair on the "nonobviousness" language adopted in 1952, nor would it affect what subject matter is eligible to be considered for a viable patent claim.
To me, it's not so much an overhaul of patent law as a rearrangement of the furniture. And unless the PTO is fully funded (a proposition not assured in the version adopted by the House of Representatives) that furniture might soon be looking like the deck chairs of the Titanic.
The Chakrabarty case of 1980 seems to have been the high-water mark of pro-patent-eligibility jurisprudence, when the Supreme Court affirmed the opinion Judge Rich had written for the Court of Customs and Patent Appeals. But even at that time, there were loudly dissenting public voices, notably Jeremy Rifkin, whose Foundation on Economic Trends successfully used a combination of authorship, publicity-seeking, and litigation to raise questions in the public mind as to the safety and appropriateness of biological technologies, yet all the while acknowledging their importance and potential.
Though Rifkin's attention seems now to have turned primarily to empathic civilization and sustainability, his current successor would be Daniel B. Ravicher, whose Public Patent Foundation has been waging war against the patent-eligibility of genetic testing, and particularly, claims to isolated polynucleotides having human genetic sequences.
With a team of American Civil Liberties Union attorneys representing a coalition of medical specialists seeking to free the diagnosis of genetic abnormalities from the fetters of the patent system, he achieved success last spring in the Federal court in New York City. But on July 29, the CAFC ruled 2 to 1 that isolated polynucleotides are potentially patent-eligible. Yet the three-judge panel agreed with Ravicher's assertion that claims reciting certain diagnostic method steps were not patent-eligible.
This probably won't be the end of the appellate process for this case. Those following the matter may be interested in a debate scheduled for October 13, 2011, between Ravicher and Hans Sauer, intellectual property counsel of BIO, entitled "Do Gene Patents Kill? The Controversy Surrounding DNA Patenting" at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law.
Further aspects of patent eligibility involving diagnostic testing arise in the Mayo Collaborative Services v. Prometheus Labs case pending before the Supreme Court.
I also take this opportunity to remember another former colleague of the BLR editorial board, Bertram I. Rowland, who prosecuted the patents on the gene-splicing technique invented by Stanford University professor Stanley N. Cohen and the University of California's Herbert W. Boyer.
During the 1980s, Niels Reimers' Office of Technology Licensing at Stanford University implemented a highly acclaimed licensing program for this platform technology. Rowland used the term "biologically active molecular chimera" to describe the constructs generated by the Cohen-Boyer technique of recombinant DNA.
Learning of this, I recalled a science fiction tale I'd read in early 1954 that I believe to be the first documented conception that spliced genes could be functional. Though it took me quite a while in those pre-Internet days to track it down from my memory of the story, I found that it was written by Damon Knight and originally published in the January 1954 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction as "Natural State," just months after James D. Watson and Francis Crick had published in Nature the double-helix structure of DNA.
Recently, Liebert graciously invited me to include an advertisement for my law firm in this June's issue of BLR. I elected to commission the accompanying illustration, which fancifully transports me into the biotechnological civilization of Knight's "muckfeet," where a "houseplant" is a creation from which you'd grow a house.

TV Ratings: NBC dominates Sunday with football, CBS' '9/11' docu gets big audience
The Nielsen audience's love affair with pro football continued on Sunday night, as NBC rode an exciting Jets-Cowboys game to a dominating win in the fast national ratings, with FOX also getting a boost from the season's first installment of its primetime postgame show. And CBS got good tune-in for it's "9/11: 10 Years Later" documentary.
For the night, NBC averaged a 7.8 rating in the 18-49-year-old demographic, and 19.2 million viewers overall. FOX was next with a 3.2 and 7.4 million, followed by CBS (2.3, 9.4 million) and ABC (1.2, 4.8 million).
7 p.m. -- FOX won the hour thanks to "The O.T." (plus spillover from some of the late games), averaging a 5.8 demo rating and 14.1 million viewers for the hour. NBC's "Football Night in America" was next with a 4.6 and 9.4 million, followed by "60 Minutes" on CBS (1.3, 8 million) and an "America's Funniest Home Videos" repeat on ABC (1.2, 5.1 million).
8 p.m. -- The conclusion of "Football Night in America" and the start of Jets-Cowboys combined to average an 8.8 demo rating and 22.1 million viewers for NBC, followed by the first hour of "9/11: 10 Years Later" on CBS (3.2, 11.5 million), "Simpsons" and "Family Guy" repeats on FOX (2.2, 4.7 million) and an "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" repeat on ABC (1.2, 4.4 million).
9 p.m. -- Football continued to dominate for NBC, with a 9.5 demo rating and 23.3 million viewers, followed by the second half of "9/11" on CBS (3.9, 13 million), "Family Guy" and "In the Flow with Affion Crockett" on FX (1.6, 3.3 million) and ABC's "20/20" (1.0, 4.4 million).
10 p.m. -- Football owned this hour as well (9.4, 22 million), followed by "20/20" (1.6, 5.5 million) and a "Good Wife" repeat on CBS (1.0, 5 million).
All ratings information comes from preliminary Fast National Nielsen data, which includes live and same-day DVR viewing. All numbers are subject to change, particularly in the case of live events.

The love that "dare not speak its name" started chattering rather loudly last week through a new presidential megaphone. Barack Obama announced that he was personally in favor of same-sex marriage, thereby energizing his somewhat-disgruntled base and alienating his already disgusted opponents. The real issue is whether this announcement, which has absolutely no legal importance, will move the undecided middle in either direction.
There are a lot of reasons why people oppose what some call a "civil right" and others call "an abomination." Obama knew that he was never going to win the vote of those who think homosexuality should be hidden from public view, not celebrated on top of a three-tiered cake. He also knew that he had the LGBT vote locked in, even if he kept dancing around the marriage issue. Who else were they going to vote for?

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is campaigning for U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Rice is speaking at a lunch Monday in Greenville on behalf of the Republican senator. Tickets are $10
Rice and Graham agree on several foreign policy goals, including protecting American interests abroad by taking actions in conflicts. Rice was secretary of state for nearly the entire second term of former President George W. Bush.
Graham is seeking a third term. He has six challengers in June's Republican primary who all say he is not conservative enough for South Carolina. Many of them also say Graham is too concerned with foreign policy.
Graham will also face a Democratic and a Libertarian opponent in the fall.

Might want to edit Team A so Team B's players aren't on the roster.
Which side do you think is favored? I think it's a reasonable trade.
Team A is probably banking on riding Vick and not losing much at QB. He gets a gimpy SJax to back up a gimpy MJD. It sounds like he's losing out, but he's got a stronger team to begin with and looks like he's trying to bolster his RBs.
Team B is pretty weak to begin, so it's trading its already poor RB depth to upgrade at QB.
Thanks for pointing that out. I went ahead and fixed it so that Team B players are not showing up on Team A list.
I think it's a pretty reasonable trade as well. Team A IS indeed banking on Vick not being a SIGNIFICANT drop off from Rivers. Thus has the luxury to trade Rivers to an ailing team desperately in need of a QB he can count on (since Favre is unreliable this yr as a QB1). But SJax is more than simply a back up to MJD, this league has 2 FLEX spots where you can start RB/WR/TE...clearly having SJax as 1 of your FLEX starters is a big upgrade from Tolbert (who's fantasy value will take a big loss once Matthews returns, possibly as early as this week). SJax is also more reliable than Portis as well, who will be played as a FLEX2 option rather than FLEX1.
There have been mixed feelings about this trade in our league. 2 owners have been very vocal about this being a lopsided trade, while the rest of the league seems to feel it either slightly favors 1 team (but helps both), or is a pretty damn even trade.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - Bill O'Brien wanted nothing to do with Illinois coach Tim Beckman.
Not before the game, when they didn't speak - O'Brien avoided Beckman, who hung around midfield appearing to want to talk with the Penn State coach.
Not after the game, when O'Brien sprinted toward Beckman and shook hands for about 1/100th of a second before running off.
Article Photos
Penn State running back Bill Belton (1) goes over Illinois defensive back Justin Green (26) during the first half Saturday in Champaign, Ill.
And not during the postgame, when O'Brien once again chose to take the high road over a fellow Big Ten coach trying to recruit Penn State's players after the NCAA sanctions were levied.
Know this for sure: O'Brien was angry, but rather than talking about it publicly, he let his team do the talking on the field Saturday with a lopsided win over Beckman's Illini, 35-7.
Also know this: Of O'Brien's three wins as a first-year head coach, this was one was by far the most satisfying.
Not that he publicly let on about it in any way.
"It's a Big Ten win," O'Brien said. "It's a really big win for us to get off on the right foot in the Big Ten. These games are not easy. This conference is tough, so any time you can get off on the right foot that's a big deal."
Pressed on the satisfaction of beating Illinois given all the hubbub over the recruiting situation, O'Brien still would only say, "It's just a Big Ten win. It's a big win. It's something our players really worked hard for and our coaching staff. Good team win."
To their credit, O'Brien and the Penn State players downplayed the recruiting stuff all week. They may have felt like Beckman was trying to kick a wounded dog while it was down with the typically taboo in-conference recruiting issue, but they elected not to discuss their frustration during the week.
"That's how Coach O'Brien wants it, and that's how we want it, too," defensive tackle Jordan Hill said. "We don't want to give them any extra motivation or anything like that. ... We knew that if we came out here and played our game that everything would go our way, and that's what happened today."
That's exactly what happened, as Penn State (3-2, 1-0 Big Ten) cashed in on numerous early mistakes by Illinois to build a 14-0 lead midway through the first quarter. It was 21-0 at the half, and as the Illini (2-3, 0-1) kept making mistakes, the Lions poured it on and had a 35-7 lead with 14 minutes remaining.
Penn State thought its third straight win could have been an even bigger blowout.
"We felt like we could have put up a lot more points than 35 today," said quarterback Matt McGloin, who was 18-of-30 for 211 yards with one passing TD and two 1-yard keepers on the ground. "We're happy with the win, but it's nowhere near where we should be."
McGloin came about as close as anyone on the team to criticizing Beckman's recruiting decision.
"What they did or didn't do, it's still not right, and we used a little bit of motivation for that," McGloin said.
Illinois muffed a punt after Penn State's first offensive series, then ran into kicker Sam Ficken as he made a 24-yard field goal. The Lions took the points off the board and scored two plays later, and the next time they got the ball they cashed in on a hit to the head penalty by Illini defensive back Terry Hawthorne to help set up a score.
That second touchdown also came about after a nifty play that saw tight end Kyle Carter line up in the backfield before rolling out into the flat as a receiving target for a 19-yard gain to the Illinois 15.
"Kyle is such a great athlete," McGloin said. "You can put him in the backfield, you can split him out wide, put him at tight end. He can do a number of things for us. That's a very tough matchup for defenses because if he's coming out of the backfield and running routes that's a tough matchup for anybody."
Penn State's offensive line proved to be too tough of a matchup for Illinois' highly touted defensive line, helping the Lions run for 173 yards (albeit on only a 3.3 average).
The stats would tell you the game was close - as Illinois had 366 yards to 384 for Penn State - but those stats lied. The Lions' defense, sparked by linebacker Michael Mauti's two interceptions, had control, and despite making several mistakes, the offense was plenty good enough to dominate the reeling Illini.
And to give O'Brien vindication.
"I've said my peace on that in the summertime," the coach said when asked again about the recruiting issue. "The sanctions are what they are. The people who recruited our kids played within the rules. But at the end of the day we came here and played a good football game against a tough team. You guys can figure the rest out."

My business methodology is to build a site and train you to update its content so you are independent and not tied to me as a developer. If you choose to come back to me for further assistance it will be because you value my ideas, not because you find yourself dependent on me.

It was the only goal UMass scored in a 4-1 loss at Maine.
The Minutemen outshot Maine 11-8 in the first period with Chase Langeraap scoring the goal. The feeling was they could have scored more. When they didn't, and then gave up a fluke goal that tied it in the second period, the momentum turned the other way, and UMass never got it back.
The statistic that was disappointing was the shots on goal total over the last two periods - 24-11 in favor of Maine, and 12-4 in the third. You'd hope that it would be UMass with the extra energy down the stretch as Maine had played in a grueling game, albeit Friday night and not Saturday, against New Hampshire while the Minutemen had been off all week. That may have been partly a confidence issue, once they fell behind, and, if so, it's something to correct for the second half of the season. In Hockey East, it takes at least two well played periods to win, and not one.

Prayer of Acclaim to the Suffering Christ:
O Lord, you received affronts without number from your blasphemers, yet each day you free captive souls from the grip of the ancient enemy.
You did not avert your face from the spittle of perfidy, yet you wash souls in saving waters.
You accepted your scourging without murmur, yet through your meditation you deliver us from endless chastisements.
You endured ill-treatment of all kinds, yet you want to give us a share in the choirs of angels in glory everlasting.
You did not refuse to be crowned with thorns, yet you save us from the wounds of sin.
In your thirst you accepted the bitterness of gall, yet you prepare yourself to fill us with eternal delights.
You kept silence under the derisive homage rendered you by your executioners, yet you petition the Father for us although you are his equal in divinity.
You came to taste death, yet you were the Life and had come to bring it to the dead. Amen.
