The only info I have is that you should give it to me . Just kidding, they are very cool amps. I've never owned one but have heard good things about them and I like the way they're designed on the inside. I did own one of the smaller fan cooled zx amps and it sounded very nice.
Pretty sure your amp can run 1 ohm loads in stereo or 2 ohms bridged with good airflow/ fan cooling. I think the specs are 25 x 2 into 4 ohms, 50 x 2 into 2 ohms and 100 x 2 into 1 ohm. They usually put out more than they're rated so I'd guess around 275-300 rms when totally loaded down. I'm actually thinking of selling my ppi a600.2 amps and getting two phoenix gold m amps but I'm so loyal to ppi, they've never let me down and sound so good.
Don't worry... you can always turn the gain down!

A lot of the PG amps of that era had problems with leaking capacitors that could do extensive damage. The damage wasn't always visible until the caps were removed. If you're going to buy one that hasn't been recapped before significant damage was done, it may be difficult to repair.

..so the caps would leak and damage traces? Are they multi layerd boards?

Morning all, the M-50 is a sweet little amp. So what info are you looking for ?
PG typically does not release documents, but I have e bunch of years looking at these and others, perhaps I can help... Lets talk some soon...
Addendum: leaky caps are typical for these since they are from the mid 90's. If not taken care of the electrolyte leaks onto the board and shorts across the gold plated board and can cause the board to actually burn up. The simple fix is to replace them and to use RTV on their bottoms to prevent the electrolyte from shorting across the leads and board. PG used high grade caps made by Panasonic, but after 10 or 15 years of service and tons of vibration on the leads they leak at the leads onto the board. Pretty common repair issue for older PG amps.
PG used double sided boards and the board could be damaged on both sides if the liquid leaked through to the bottom side. Most of the time the corrosive damage was kept to the top side where 12 volts was allowed to pass through the liquid and across the board area. The 12 volts seems to aggravate the corrosion and the copper plate underneath the gold would dissolve in a very green manner, and then the gold plate would just lift off the board. No traces left no circuitry either. I have seen the PC board literally burn black to carbon and then its board repair time...

Stupid leaking capacitors have been the bane of my existance in IT as well.
Let me guess it is the nichicon's on the far right near the transformer and heatsink that leak. If this amp is from the late 90s to early 2000s that would make perfect sense.
If it is the large panny's (actually matsushita's but whatever) in the middle, that would be the first time I have seen panny's fail.

The 16 volt Panasonic's near the toroid are the usual culprits. 2200 ufd at 16 VDC. PG used high grade caps, They just fail on the 12volt side commonly in all early models. I like to use 35 VDC replacements and RTV dam the leads to prevent electrolyte shorting. Its the shorting of the 12 volt rails that does the bad deed and damages the card so badly.
PG was the first to use high grade 105C rated caps back in the 90's. I guess that is why they lasted 12 to 15 years before they failed. That is a long service life for any cap.
I use either Panasonic or Nichicon as replacements, I just add the RTV as a preventative measure to protect the board and glue down the cap so it does not pull on the leads so much, and prevent electrolyte from shorting across the board. < the latter causes the board traces to lift and worse case literally burn to carbon the fiberglass epoxy board...
PG usually used Nippon Chemicon for the large rail caps, and their typical replacements were always Chemicon brand. Nothing but high grade Japanese made caps inside of these amps.

The attached images show the damage in an Autotek amp (the damage is similar to that in the PG amps). You can see that virtually all of the damaged area is within the outline of the cap which can make it difficult to see with the cap in place. The second image shows that the electrolyte has actually penetrated the circuit board. When it does this, the board becomes conductive (as was previously stated). If there are power and ground traces on opposite sides of the board where it's conductive, the board will burn and can leave very large holes. Often there will be very little smoke or odor when the board burns like this. It won't blow the fuse and many times, the user will have no idea that it happened until the amp quits.
Although I'm not a fan of recapping amps without seeing failed caps, if anyone owns an old Autotek (or their close cousins, Hifonics, etc.) or PG amp that they value, they should have them checked. If they use the Nichicon PL or PF caps, they should be replaced. Even if the amp isn't being used, the Nichicon PL and PF caps should be removed because they will damage the board whether power is applied or not.

Great pics, thx Perry
Oh a simple test method:
take a piece of stiff clean paper and slip it under each cap. If after it has been withdrawn from under the cap it appear wet or discolored in any way, you have leaking caps. replacement is pretty much mandatory at this point....hope this helps some....

Yeah, it appears they used both Nichicons (HE models from the pics I have seen) and Panny's on the side with big matsushitas in the center.
Interesting that they don't bulge and instead push out the bung (yeah that is actually the name for the rubber/plastic insert on the bottom of a capacitor).
Either way, that is some nasty damage. Rarely see that bad in IT even with catastrophic cap failures.

text: Frozen Planet's climate change episode to air in United States The Discovery Channel reverses its decision not to screen the nature series in full Comments Written By 1:34 PM, 08 December 2011 The Discovery Channel has revealed that David Attenborough's nature documentary series Frozen Planet will be transmitted in its entirety in the USA. Frozen Planet's American fate looked uncertain when Discovery announced last month that it had planned to omit the series' seventh episode, which examines climate change, owing to "scheduling conflicts". However, commentators speculated that the real reason for the network ditching the episode had more to do with fears of angering stateside climate-change sceptics. But the channel has changed its tune and revealed that it will, in fact, broadcast the whole series with a voiceover from Alec Baldwin, saying in a statement on its website that: "the seven-part series…will premiere in the United States on Sunday, March 18." The post also added a nod to the controversial episode, saying: "The series' seventh episode, hosted on camera by British naturalist David Attenborough, will investigate what rising temperatures will mean for the people and wildlife that live [in the polar regions] - and for the rest of the planet." Discovery's head, Eileen O'Neill, called the series remarkable "because it's so surprising. You see sequences that have never been captured on film before - a world you would expect to see in a Narnia film, not on this planet." "You see an environment that's changing, if not disappearing, in our generation," she added. Frozen Planet finished its run on BBC1 last night with the episode about climate change, called On Thin Ice. Like this? Share it.

The New York Times reports that the economic recovery has been skewed toward a rise in low-wage work.
"The deep recession wiped out primarily high-wage and middle-wage jobs. Yet the strongest employment growth during the sluggish recovery has been in low-wage work, at places like strip malls and fast-food restaurants."
A new report from the National Employment Law Project shows "that total employment has finally surpassed its pre-recession level … But job losses and gains have been skewed."
"As a result, the average household's take-home pay has declined through the recession and the recovery to $51,017 in 2012 from $55,627 in 2007, after adjusting for inflation."
The result: hundreds of thousands of Americans are "sliding out of the middle class and into the ranks of the working poor."

Washington • A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit against Obama administration officials for the 2011 drone-strike killings of three U.S. citizens in Yemen, including an al-Qaida cleric.
U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer said Friday the case raises serious constitutional issues and is not easy to answer, but that "on these facts and under this circuit's precedent," the court will grant the White House request.
The suit was against then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, then-CIA Director David Petraeus and two commanders in the military's Special Operations forces.
Permitting a lawsuit against individual officials "under the circumstances of this case would impermissibly draw the court into 'the heart of executive and military planning and deliberation,'" Collyer said. She said the suit would require the court to examine national security policy and the military chain of command as well as operational combat decisions regarding the designation of targets and how best to counter threats to the United States.

Behind the Scenes: "First Stitch"
Get a Peek Behind All the Action
14 Feb 2014
The "First Stitch" video was filmed at a mansion in Palos Verdes on a beautiful, sunny southern California day in the United States. While it started out foggy, the skies cleared in time for our advertisement shoot. With the help of our model Kalyn Hemphill and videographer Chad Curry, the "First Stitch" became a reality.
The location was chosen because of the antique wood and golden tones that are reflected in our 2014 collection. It embraced Enzoani's values of sophistication and effortless elegance as well as intertwining the contemporary features with traditional styles.
The video features Ilyssa from the 2014 Enzoani collection because it is one of Kang Chun Lin's, the lead designer, favorite designs. He was inspired by the Dolce and Gabanna vintage look with a twist. His creation features the infamous Enzoani lines and added the pop of color for the modern bride as color is now a popular trend for wedding dresses.
Kalyn Hemphill is the model in the shoot, and the Enzoani team wanted to show off the model's natural beauty with simple hair and makeup in a clean, sleek manner so that the dress could be the main attraction.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Now Playing - TV Show Talk' started by Bierboy, Jul 4, 2013.
I didn't like it at all. I was already displeased at the departure of Jessy Schram ("Evil Karen").
Yeah, I will definitely be keeping it on a short leash.
The show has more than enough goodwill built up for me that I can forgive what right now seems to be the misstep that I think some here are responding to:
creepy Lexi
Defiance=Teraforming mishap + Alien Invasion
Well, not really invasion...more like immigration.
But I guess if you're in the House, it's basically the same thing.
Well terraforming is making it earth-like, but Earth was already earth-like. Some invading aliens tried to make it more like their (un-named) home world and screwed up.
According to the Wiki, it's more like visiting aliens' spaceships blew up mysteriously in orbit, releasing terraforming agents into Earth's atmosphere.
I think what JohnS is getting at is that terraforming translates to "earth shaping," or changing an alien planet to be more earth-like. What the aliens were attempting in Defiance might more properly be called xenoforming. They were trying the shape earth to be more like their own world, which probably wasn't exactly earth-like
And what I was getting at was that they weren't trying to do anything. It was an accident.
See, I think they were going to try to do something. They just suffered from premature xeroformation. Perhaps their intentions were benevolent and their plan for immigration/change/peace/coexiste ce was good, and they were just upset by whatever blew up their ships, and is attacking earth now. Common enemy?
(I've only watched a few minutes of the premier, downloaded from amazon)
What seems to have happened is they came here thinking the place was empty, and planning to terraform it (or whatever word you want to use). They found us instead, and tried to get along with us. Which isn't always easy to do. In the middle of all that, some of their ships exploded, and the terraforming happened as a result. They blamed us, we blamed them, and a war started. What we're seeing if the aftermath of the war. (Who blew us the ships remains an open question.)
But now, nobody is "attacking the Earth." Humans and aliens (various varieties), plus creatures that resulted from the terraforming, all live here, and coexist about as peacefully as humans do on our own...which is to say, sometimes yes, sometimes kill them all and let God sort them out, and most times somewhere in between. And in each of the three main species (humans and two aliens), there are some that hate each other, some that literally love each other, and most somewhere in between.

None of the websites you mentioned currently sell or have in inventory dunhill tobacco.

Even though web sites advertise they have dunhill for sale, they don't. You need to either call them or buy it online to verify the situation. Thank you for your time
Here is a rather long link from a google group dedicated to pipe smokers, but it is worth reading. If it does not work, let me know.
This is as deep as I can go in my attempt to research for you. If this is satisfactory, click the accept button...
We may be in luck. Try this!!!
Here's a thought...
In upstate NY in the early 80' there was a baccy shop that had bulk jars like a candy shop. I could chose a scoop of latakia, boorqim and turkish and have it thrash blended and walk away with six-months worth of smoke.
Is there such a shop in your corner of the world?
Good luck. If my efforts were any help, just hit the ACCEPT btn. This is not a major source of income, but it does provide a few trinkets ...
Heres another idea. Start a buyers club by building a blog at Google. Get members to co-op...
Will do...

It seems incredible, but Utah laws governing adoption actually invite and maybe even encourage fraud and the undermining of parental rights.
It's hard to believe because Utah is a state with a widespread reputation for protecting families and children. But the Beehive State attracts mothers trying to circumvent the natural rights of fathers and agencies that encourage such behavior in order to make money on adoptions.
The recent case of Terry Achane and his 2-year-old daughter is a good example of what is seriously wrong with Utah law and why the Legislature should change it quickly.
While Achane was deployed with the military, his wife moved to Utah so she could put their baby up for adoption without his knowledge. A Utah couple, initially unmindful of the truth, adopted the baby girl. It took many months of legal wrangling and a 4th District Court decision in which the judge scolded the agency and the adoptive parents to reunite Achane and his daughter.
By that time, the toddler and the adoptive family had bonded, and restoring the girl to her father was hard on everybody. But the decision was the right one.
Achane's now ex-wife knew that she had a better chance of getting away with depriving her husband of his daughter in Utah than any other state. State law puts all responsibility on fathers to prevent fraud and gives them little chance of reclaiming their parental rights, even when they have been hoodwinked by their wives and adoption agencies.
It's apparent that the writers of the law favor two-parent adoptive families over biological fathers who are caring and committed, but may be single. This is absurd.
Sen. Luz Robles, D-Salt Lake City, is proposing SB183 to change this unfair and discriminatory law. The bill would allow for penalties against adoption agencies that encourage mothers to lie to their spouses or partners or otherwise make fraudulent representations in connection with an adoption.
It rightly would direct courts to give more weight to due-process rights of a victimized parent over bonding to an adoptive family when an adoption is based on fraud.
Utah legislators usually make a case for preserving parental rights in state laws and policies. Biological fathers are parents, too, and their rights are as important as a mother's or as those of a couple seeking to adopt.
This outdated law must be changed. If it isn't, Utah will remain the go-to state for people who want to use lies and fraudulent behavior to cut fathers out of their children's lives and make money in the process.

The surgeons listed above are members of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, licensed by the state of Pennsylvania and certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

Recently, I watched the Showtime Series "Sleeper Cell" which aired for 2 seasons from 2005 – 2006. Although the TV show is almost 10 years old now, its subject matter of terrorism in relation to American Muslims is still very relevant today. When "Sleeper Cell" came out, there was a lot of push back from the Muslim community in America, most of which occurred before the series even aired. Although the cable TV series does have its flaws, I believe it did have a lot of in-depth analysis of the int … [Read more...]

FS: NOMIS Jacket & Pant Size L ($100)
I have for sale a matching jacket and pant from NOMIS. The base color is gray and both are a size L. I wore the outfit one time total so the only flaws are some light fraying at the pant cuff and a small black mark on the back of the jacket from the chairlift. Pics included to show the minor flaws. Otherwise, this outfit is flawless and will get you many compliments.
It has 10K/10K water-proofing and breathability. The jacket chest, per NOMIS, measures 40-42, although Id say it runs bigger, and the pant waist is 34-36 with the inseam 34.5.
The jacket has a multitude of pockets including a pass-holder and an internal audio pocket. It also has pit zips and a powder skirt.
The pants have 2 cargo pockets, inner thigh zips, and boot gaiters.
Asking $100 OBO for both or $60 for one item. Shipping is $15 anywhere in CONUS.

Bender is a graduate of Penn State and Duquesne School of Law. He's been a magisterial district judge, a private-practice lawyer and an Allegheny County prosecutor.

Growing Programs for Scale
Learn more about the funding strategy of the Vulnerable Populations team.
The Green House Project, a breakthrough solution to caring for aging Americans, illustrates what it takes to take an idea mainstream.
The Green House Project has been called the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's (RWJF) signature example of bringing game-changing ideas to scale. It started with an idea 12 years ago for a housing and skilled-nursing care environment that could provide a better, warmer, and more dignified alternative to traditional nursing home facilities for frail elders. Today, there are 137 Green House homes in 22 states across the U.S., with many more in development.
In a Green House home, elders live in a specially designed home where they have private rooms, set their own schedules, share socializing and meals, and receive the nursing care they need while maintaining their freedom and dignity.
Jane Isaacs Lowe, Vulnerable Populations team director at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), uses the case of The Green House Project to explain the team's strategy. Starting small, RWJF tests innovative models that can effect fundamental change and be applied on a wide scale. She explains the process of identifying compelling ideas, testing a model's capacity to replicate in a sustainable way, and rigorously evaluating progress and adjusting course as needed to fundamentally grow an approach like the Green House Project to scale.
Among the lessons learned from The Green House Project:
While these lessons are starting to be applied widely, Lowe believes that "when it comes to nurturing social innovation and bringing effective solutions to where they are needed most, this is the dawn of a new era."

Sometimes we can all work with a little help financially. If you find yourself which has a financial problem, and also you don't know where you should turn, you can aquire a payday loan. A payday loan is a short-term loan that one could receive quickly. There is often a bit more involved, and the tips will assist you to understand further in what these loans are about.
Payday loan companies will continue to work around the laws to impose a fee the highest amount. These loans cost a degree (say $15 per $100 lent), which might be just interest disguised as fees. As a result, that loan can accrue around ten times a person's eye rate of your standard loan.
Beware of falling right into a trap with pay day loans. In theory, you'll pay the loan back one to two weeks, then go forward with your life. In reality, however, many people cannot afford to the loan, and also the balance keeps taking this lightly to their next paycheck, accumulating huge amounts of interest through the process. In this case, some people get into the positioning where they are able to never afford to settle the loan.
Be aware in the deceiving rates you're presented. It may seem to become affordable and acceptable being charged 15 dollars for each one-hundred you borrow, however it will quickly add up. The rates will translate to be about 390 percent from the amount borrowed. Know exactly just how much you will be needed to pay in fees and interest at the start.
If you are considering getting a payday loan, ensure that you have a intend to get it paid right away. The loan company will offer you to "help you" and extend your loan, if you can't pay it off without delay. This extension costs you a fee, plus additional interest, in order that it does nothing positive to suit your needs. However, it earns the credit company a nice profit.

I too bought one of these thinking it could do i2c, and was hornswoggled. It don't do it.
Is there any sourcecode about that could be modified? It'd be super handy if this did i2c since when programming long device chains, you could use your SPI shortcut to pre-set device address from factory default and all.
No public wish lists :(

The diametral compression (or Brazilian disk) test is a useful method for determining the tensile strength of ceramic materials. This test method has been utilized periodically over the past fifty years. The state of stress has been confirmed by theory of elasticity, finite element analysis, and photoelasticity studies. The resultant findings are remarkably consistent and in excellent agreement with the classical analysis by Hertz. In all cases there is a convergence of the stress solutions everywhere in the disk except in the immediate vicinity of the loading points. Strength values determined by the diametral compression test sometimes are comparable to flexure strengths, but in many instances are not. A critical missing link has been fractographic analysis which is usually limited to the examination of macroscopic crack branching patterns. Characterization of the fracture origins is extremely rare. The present study compares the strength-limiting flaw population highlighted by diametral compression and flexure tests for a yttria tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) material.

From Our EA Community — Boiling Down Your BT Strategy To A Single Page
Posted by Brian Hopkins on July 25, 2012
- 668 Recommendations
- 4 comments
Last fall, a member of our enterprise architecture community asked a simple question — how do you represent IT strategy on a single page? What resulted was the most read and commented discussion to date. That got our attention! But what really piqued our interest was when another community participant challenged us to go beyond our usual publishing process to co-create a report with the community.
For those who have been following the discussion, it has been slow going, but I'm glad to say that we are done! What's more, we have decided to make this report available to everyone since much of the content came directly from the community. Please follow this link (www.forrester.com/btstrategyonapage) to request your copy if you are not a client (free site registration is required). Clients should go to our normal site to download the report.
In the research, we took the community contributions and created a toolkit in PowerPoint form containing seven examples of business technology (BT) strategy representation on a single "page." The lesson we learned is that there is no one right way to do it and you will probably need several one-pagers for different audiences.
Why title it BT and not IT? We started out with the notion of pure IT strategy, but quickly realized that the best one-pagers married business strategy with technology strategy. Ideally, these two should be co-created by business and technology leaders. Why? Because "aligned IT" can no longer keep up with the blinding pace of business change; it takes a business technology approach. Consider:
- IT is having trouble adapting to rapidly changing business strategy. While 45% of IT execs rated their architecture's adaptability to business change positively, only 30% of non-IT executives said the same thing in our Forrsights Business Decision-Makers Survey, Q4 2011. This was the second largest difference between business and IT views, behind collaborating on business strategy and innovation.
- Business are dissatisfied with the level of new technology IT is delivering. Only 9% of enterprise architects said their business was completely satisfied with the level of new technology being introduced, while 25% said their business was completely dissatisfied in our September 2011 Global State Of Enterprise Architecture Online Survey.
I could go on with many other data points, but the message is clear: 2012 is not the time for 2005 technology service delivery and management; we have to find a better way that brings business and IT together. Enterprise architecture is the CIO's secret weapon here, and a method for co-creating a one-page representation of BT strategy is a valuable tool to have.
Enjoy and let me know what you think.

Comment from Juan Mestas (not verified) on Sat, 08/11/2012 - 14:11
Hi Brian,
This is an interesting topic, starting in the rule of facto for multiple firms: "Just show the important things", but show the BTS in one page is pretty hard becuase the different level of audiencies impacted for this. In the same manner than EA you need different views for the different viewpoints
A compelling one-pager
Comment from Rene Hermes (not verified) on Tue, 08/28/2012 - 09:28
We went through the exercise to create a one pager on the IT strategy for a retail organization lately. We took the main driver impacting enterprise retailers (the expectations from the connected customer) as a starting point and brought that down to the strategy and planning a IT department has to execute in order to satisfy customers. The result can be viewed at:
One pagers for other industries will follow in the next couple of months. We would welcome your feedback on this.

STUART Beavon was the late hero as his stoppage time header earned a hard-fought point for Wanderers.
The striker pounced to steer a header into the back of the net to keep Wycombe's unbeaten run going and to take his own tally to eight goals in six games.
It was a deserved point for Blues but looked likely to evade them after Daniel Powell put MK Dons ahead minutes into the second-half.
And they also had goalkeeper Nikki Bull to thank after his 10 th minute penalty save – his third in a row – to deny Jay O'Shea.
A run of one defeat in their last six games had renewed confidence at Adams Park.
Fears that confidence would be shaken came when on-loan striker Paul Hayes, who had netted six in six for Wanderers, was recalled by the Addicks yesterday.
And again when captain Dave Winfield failed to shrug off a thigh strain and Matt Bloomfield ruled out with a calf injury.
But Wycombe thrived on the derby challenge against high-flying Dons but needed Bull's heroics to set up a stirring first-half performance.
The Blues stopper was called into action after 10 minutes after full-back Marvin McCoy bundled ex-Manchester United midfielder Alan Smith over in the box.
Up stepped O'Shea but Bull kept his incredible run going by foiling the striker with a double save from the spot.
It was a moment that seemed to inspire Wycombe, who created the best of the chances that followed with Stuart Lewis screwing a shot wide, Ben Strevens heading over and Stuart Beavon blazing a shot past the post.
MK Dons had been a shadow of the side chasing down an automatic promotion spot so successfully.
But with 93 goals this season it seemed unlikely Wycombe would become only the fourth side to keep them out this season.
And so it proved.
The Dons punished them for not making the most of their first-half dominance when Powell fired them in front to net the 300 th goal in games involving the two sides this season.
It relaxed the Dons who threatened to extend their lead with Mathias Doumbe volleying wide from a tight angle.
Wycombe continued to compete well against their prolific neighbours, who flexed their muscles by bringing Dean Bowditch and Jabo Ibehre off the bench in the second-half.
But creating clear-cut chances proved difficult for Wanderers with Strevens sending a header over the bar after Gary Doherty helped on a corner.
Wycombe threw the kitchen sink at MK Dons in the final stages and visiting boss Karl Robinson, celebrating becoming the first boss to reach 100 games in charge, who craved the final whistle.
But he had to settle for a point when Beavon rose to glance his header into the back of the net to bag a crucial point for Wanderers.
WANDERERS: Bull, McCoy, Laing, Doherty, Basey, Hackett (Ainsworth 63), Lewis, Eastmond, McNamee (McClure 61), Strevens, Beavon.
Subs (not used): Stewart, Scowen, Dunne.
Booked: Basey (17 mins).
MK DONS: Martin, Smith (Ibehre 78), Doumbe, Flanagan, Lewington, Powell, Gleeson, Potter, Williams, O'Shea (Bowditch 63), MacDonald (Chadwick 90).
Subs (not used): McLoughlin, Hall.
Booked: Smith (32 mins).
