Reviews on Rewind: Fujicolor C200 35mm2014-02-01 4 Share Tweet
In these tough times, you want to have a cheap but extremely reliable film that you know can deliver the goods. Fujicolor C200 35mm is a no-nonsense film that's versatile, gives good color, and friendly on the budget. Have a look at some reviews from the community in this week's edition of Reviews on Rewind!
Fujicolor C200 35mm: The Cheap Go-To Film by in-the-sky
Overall, I like this film for its flexibility and performance in varying conditions, and not to mention the price. Since I first shot with this film, I can't help but buy loads of it whenever I have the chance to. It has become one of my go-to films since it is so widely available.
Fujicolor C200: The Film With Many Uses by simonesavo
As you can see, the Fuji C200 is an excellent film. It's affordable price does not get in the way of the shooting quality. It's a good film for the low price and can meet a wide range of photographic needs.
Fuji C200: The Versatile Day Film by patsnaps
The C200 combines flexibility and availability. It's even perfect for film experiments since you do not have to worry about cross processing and burning or washing a couple of bucks away.
Fujicolor C200 35mm: A Film Made for Sunny Days! by sirio174
This film is great even when you shoot in back lit environments! No tracks of "underexposed noise" in the silhouette! And even in a difficult shadowy conditions against a blue sky, the cold dominance of the blue color is easily corrected during scanning!

Pickled Radishes
READY IN: 8hrs 20mins
Recipe by Sharon123
From Better Homes & Gardens, this is easy and tasty! Cook time is chill time.
Top Review by mama2chix
Very good as it is, but because I've made this recipe before, I changed it up a bit...added sliced carrots to the radishes & onions. I also added crushed red pepper to play off the sweetness. Some oregano, dill seed and mustard seed to finish it off. We pack all veggies into a large jar then fill with the vinegar/spices mix.

Location: Floral and Nursery Plants Research2010 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
Objective 1: Accurately identify and characterize existing genetic resources, and elucidate their genetic relationships and genetic variation within species, in understudied groups of specialty crops (primarily woody landscape plants). • Sub-objective 1.A. Elucidate relationships among selected species of elms (Ulmus). • Sub-objective 1.B. Determine whether apomixis occurs in selected species of hackberry (Celtis). • Sub-objective 1.C. Determine whether pollen competition affects the occurrence and frequency of interspecific hybridization in oaks (Quercus). • Sub-objective 1.D. Characterize the evolutionary and systematic relationships for the approximately 11 species of the economically important landscape plant genus Catalpa, culminating in a biosystematic monograph for the genus. • Sub-objective 1.E. Construct an initial systematic and phylogenetic analysis of the evolutionary relationships between the relatively few temperate species of the landscape plant Chionanthus and their many tropical congeners. • Sub-objective 1.F. Carry out research projects relating to other families and genera to reach a broad audience in the form of regional floras and botanical manuals in collaboration with other scientists and horticulturists. Objective 2: Maintain and enhance the National Arboretum herbarium as a scientific resource and a collection documenting important agricultural research and germplasm. Objective 3: Investigate the identity and basic biological characteristics of selected invasive woody plants in the U.S.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
Investigations will utilize a variety of different data types, primarily morphological data, DNA sequence variation, and variation in single-locus DNA markers within variable sites in the genome, analyzed using phylogenetic analyses and other multivariate statistical methods. Organisms will be studied in the field, herbarium, laboratory, and garden.
3. Progress Report
Variation in chromosome number in American elm (Ulmus americana) was investigated. Plants across the range of the species were examined using flow cytometry, and both diploid and tetraploid races were found. The diploid race was previously unknown, suggesting that much untapped genetic variation remains in this species, one of the most important tree species for the American landscape industry. DNA was extracted from representative American elms, and representative genetic markers are being examined to determine the relationships between chromosomal races. Investigation of the relationships among chromosome number, pollen formation, and apomixis in the hackberries (Celtis) has continued. This work is important for determining strategies for developing superior cultivars of these native trees, which are tolerant of harsh conditions but underused in the landscape. Potential parents for oak crosses were characterized for several SSR markers. Flowering material of three oak species was collected and fixed for pollen-tube studies. Cultivated catalpas and related plants from all over the world were collected. Each collection included cuttings that were rooted in the greenhouse, tissue for DNA extraction, and dried specimens to serve as permanent records of the collections. This material was obtained for assessment of catalpa genetic diversity now in cultivation, and its correct identification. The oldest North American catalpa species in Maryland and Virginia were collected as baseline examples of their genetics. Living material and previous literature were used to develop a morphological character list. Cultivated and wild fringe trees and relatives in North America were collected. Each collection included tissue for DNA extraction and dried specimens to serve as permanent records of the collections. Chinese fringe trees cultivated in North America were sampled to measure their genetic diversity. Two large populations of native fringe trees in Maryland, two in North Carolina, and one in Texas were intensively sampled for genetic diversity. Living material and previous literature were used to develop a morphological character list. A new bird's foot trefoil species was discovered during a review of bird's foot trefoil plants from the Cape Verde Islands. The new species is found only in very dry habitats on two islands. Permanent herbarium specimens were collected and existing herbarium specimens were entered into a database in order to provide research material needed for National Arboretum research projects. The National Arboretum herbarium is being prepared for upcoming storage while the building where it is located is renovated. Collections and ancillary materials have been checked for storage requirements, alternate storage plans prepared and evaluated, and an agreement with Smithsonian to store some of the most sensitive specimens negotiated. Information was gathered from the herbarium on past and present cultivation of non-native woody plants in the mid-Atlantic area, to be used to evaluate characteristics that make plants likely to become invasive in our area, and to evaluate models for predicting invasiveness.
4. Accomplishments
1. Demonstration that Ulmus americana consists of at least two chromosomal races. An ARS scientist at Beltsville, Maryland investigated geographical variation in chromosome number in American elm (Ulmus americana). Plants from throughout the range of the species were examined using flow cytometry, and it was demonstrated that both diploid and tetraploid chromosome races are found in the species. The diploid race was previously unknown, suggesting that considerable untapped genetic variation remains in this species, one of the most important tree species for the American nursery industry.
2. Revision of the elm family in Missouri. An ARS scientist in Washington, DC revised the elm family (Ulmaceae) for The Flora of Missouri, a manual published by the State of Missouri to provide up-to-date information on the taxonomy, distribution, and ecological status of all plants in the family that are wild or invasive in Missouri (including most of the species found across the eastern half of the United States), together with a guide for identification, aimed at professional and sophisticated amateur users. The taxonomy, distribution, and ecological status of all species of these groups that grow outside of cultivation in Missouri was reevaluated, based on extensive field and laboratory studies and a thorough reexamination of available herbarium specimens from throughout the eastern United States, and a guide for identification was supplied. These groups of plants include American elm and other important ornamentals, and species that are or may become invasive in the United States.
3. Documentation of genetic markers for Chinese fringe tree races in the U.S. ARS scientists at the U.S. National Arboretum, Washington, D.C. and Poplarville, Mississippi genetically characterized the races of Chinese fringe trees now in the U.S. The Chinese fringe is an attractive, spring-flowering tree or shrub with the potential to be a beautiful element in urban gardens. Identification of the genetic races now available in the U.S. and development of techniques for their identification will speed up their improvement by clearly distinguishing the genetic lines available for improvement and eliminating duplication in improvement studies.
4. Designation of the characteristic collection for the northern catalpa. ARS scientists at the U.S. National Arboretum, Washington, D.C. discovered that the character specimen for the northern catalpa was incorrect. The northern catalpa is one of our most beautiful trees for urban forestry. Its correct identification is vital for its proper utilization and research furthering its improvement.
5. New bird's foot trefoil from the Cape Verde Islands off the western coast of Africa discovered. An ARS scientist at the U.S. National Arboretum, Washington, D.C. discovered a new species of bird's foot trefoil from two islands in the Cape Verde archipelago. This distinctive new species occurs in very dry habitats, and will further our understanding of the biodiversity and biogeography of the archipelago.

Love and Romance
True love is like a permanent state of madness, one that makes us end up doing things we always thought ourselves incapable of. The same happened with Delhi-based Arjun Singh. As a teenager, he made fun of romantic movies and love songs. Even when he got married, he only gradually fell in love with his wife - their love was mature and pure and had none of the madness that love stories are made of. But his story only begins here, One day at a party, he meets Tamanna, who looks breathtaking beside her overweight and pompous husband. Her arrival turns Arjuns life around. He does everything love-struck teenagers are known to do from writing poetry and letters to checking his phone every few minutes. He pines, he sings, he cries, he obsesses, he hyperventilates, he regrets, he scolds himself, he broods, he dreams and he loves - Truly and helplessly. And as time passes, the gradual revelation of Tamannas maturity, her thoughtfulness and her witty personality leave Arjun completely awestruck. But his is not a usual love story, for he is married and so is she. Heartbreaking and inspired by the authors life story, Tamanna is a journey through a mans heart, exploring, as it does, how it is possible to love more than one person at the same time and how love heeds no reason and no boundaries.
About the Author
Inherently curious about relationships and mysteries surrounding human emotions, Tejeshwar Singh runs a software consultancy firm in Delhi. He was a little late in realizing his passion towards creative writing, but doesnt regret it. This is his second book and was almost auto-writing - it emerged from the deepest confines of his sub-conscience. His first book, Ive Had Enough, God!, was published by Rupa in 2009.

Set in the Fated Blades Universe, or 16th-century Japan, Steve Bein's novella tells the story of a veteran samurai and his young recruit. Brian Nishili gives an engaged performance. He utilizes varied pacing and enthusiastic, almost staccato, enunciation to engross listeners. He employs each word like a dagger to build this dramatic samurai tale. Meanwhile, Japanese names give Nishili no pause; he breezes through them evenly. Listeners looking for a worldly and short adventure story full of bravery and heroic challenges will enjoy Only a Shadow.
The author of Daughter of the Sword takes readers to feudal Japan, where men and empires rise and fall by the sword...
The Tiger on the Mountain is a legendary blade, crafted by the master swordsmith Inazuma, and reputed to possess magical powers. In 1442 Japan, the sword dwells inside the impregnable fortress of Hirata Nobushige, the enemy of the Iga clan. Venerable shinobi Jujiro has recruited the brave young ninja Tada to steal the sword and restore power to the Iga clan. If Tada is successful, he'll go from being the clan's orphaned ward to a legend for the ages - and he'll be able to ask for Old Jujiro's granddaughter's hand in marriage.
If he fails, the clan will be annihilated. Getting inside the castle is next to impossible - getting out is inconceivable. But as Tada prepares himself for one of the boldest thefts in history, the greatest obstacle he faces may just prove to be himself... Don't miss Daughter of the Sword, the first Novel of the Fated Blades!

12 days of Christmas Track Workout
12 Days of Christmas Track Workout
One way to keep things interesting throughout the year is to do special 'themed' workouts at certain times of the year. With Christmas approaching it seemed appropriate to share a '12 Days of Christmas' workout that you can take to the track.
Given the unseasonably (and awesome) warm temperatures that have stayed with us so far, this workout can be done outside as well if there is a loop or out-and-back section that you would like to run on. The added bonus of this workout is that it incorporates the strength work that we all know we should be doing, but don't always do.
The premise of the workout is that you run for a certain time or distance in between each set of strength exercises, doing the 'first day of Christmas' after the first bit of running, then the second and the first, and so on and so forth. If doing this with a group it may be more practical to set a time (eg. 4 minutes of running) so that everyone is back at the same spot for the strength work at the same time. If using 4 minutes, that means 48 minutes of total running plus your strength work- a great workout!
Here are the '12 days':
1- 30 sec plank
2- reverse lunges (2 each leg)
3- squat jumps
4- v-ups
5- walking lunges (5 each leg)
6- mountain climbers
7- hip raises
8- supermans
9- pushups
10- burpees
11-sit ups to knees
12- jumping jacks
I think most people will know the majority of these exercises, but for clarification on days 7 and 8:
Hip Raises

Hey, I'm Sarah.
I'm a city girl living in Cambridge, Massachusetts, but you'll usually find me exploring the outdoors because I believe that life is about adventures. I'm a marketer by day, and there's nothing that gets my heart pounding like some really well designed email marketing or a good conversion rate optimization puzzle. I love consulting because I get to help others grow their businesses and teach them about marketing, and that's just awesome. I'm also really into photography, so you might catch me sporting my Nikon camera at any given moment. Otherwise, I'm probably off dancing, running, hiking, or huddling around a campfire.
Have questions about marketing? Photography? My adventure-centric life philosophy?

|Mafia All Stars 3.1
|Game information
|Mafia All Stars 3.1 BTSC threads
|11 Players (Small)
|Start Date
|Winning Faction
|#, player
|First to Die
|Last Remaining
|Jay, Vommack, Slick, Hachi, Aura, Brainy, Boq, Marq
Mafia All Stars 3.1 was a game designed and hosted by Nana7 based on her own idea, using the concept of Mafia All Stars (designed by Maurice), which used the famous roles from various other mafias. This is a variation of Mafia All Stars III run with the role's original powers (or a close approximation) and as a goodie/baddie/indie game rather than as free for all.
It began on January 24, 2014 and ended in a Indy win in N3 (Jan 29).
Game Mechanics Edit
OOP, block>redirect. If two of same action type are in a loop, indy>baddie>goodie
No kills are blocking
Appears in NP: blocks, kills, successful rid kills and saves, all with targets. Tigger's evade will appear with target. Redirects will not appear in np.
Redirects are told if action failed or not.
Spies get accurate results.
Blocks appear in np, so no need to tell them if they succeed, it either appears or it failed for some reason.
Baddie nk is not redirectable or blockable or affected by Night Stalker unless it is using the Hellmo special zombie kill, in which case it may be redirected or blocked by acting on Hellmo.
saves in the np do not specify the role which did the save, including if it is the Doctor losing a life.
Tie rules are d1 no lynch, after d1 it is one random.
Nights end at 8pm BT with post up within an hour. Days end 9pm BT with post up shortly thereafter.
Role DescriptionEdit
Baddies: Have majority that can not be lost
- (Hellmo from Sesame Street Mafia) : vote manip x2 on any player, or zombie kill (alter nk so target dies next day but with vote redirected (redirect portion is day action, happens even if Hellmo died that night)
- (Starbucks from Fast Food Mafia I/II) : redirect and rid kill. If rid kill misses, may not use it on the following night. If Starbucks is blocked, both actions are blocked. If Starbucks is redirected, its own redirect is redirected but its rid kill is prevented (regardless of rid correctness) and may be used next night without penalty.
- (Rita Repulsa from MMPR Season 2 Mafia) : voodoo hex
- Voodoo hex works just as it did in MMPR 2. With one change: hex word applies to everyone, not just to one player. Hex word may also kill baddies who say it. Hex word must still be 5 letters or longer. And players are not allowed to use intentional misspellings/texter spelling/hacker spelling to get around it. If a player uses the hex word but misspells it, that counts as using the hex word.
Goodies: Last faction standing
- (Tigger from Lolcats the 2th) : evade: target immune to night actions including nk, but not rid kills
- (Night Stalker from Penguin Mafia) : bodyguard: kills whoever kills his target (at night only)
- (God from Dying of the Light Mafia 2) : follow spy, role assumed of 1st dead teammate
- (Katniss from Hunger Games Mafia) : save, unblockable and not redirectable, saves against rid kills too
- (Hermione from Harry Potter IV / V Mafia) : role spy
- (Dean from DPM I / II) : kill
- (Doctor from Doctor Who Mafia) : has 2 lives, can spy dead players, or block/redirect past actions and see what would have changed
- Doctor's block/redirect past actions is like a spy action, with only the Doctor being told how it would have affected past np. The Doctor may use that ability on each prior night once for free. Using it again to see the same night results in a chance of death, n-1/n for each attempt (1/2 chance for 2nd look at a specific night, 2/3 for 3rd look, and so on). Spying a dead player counts as a look at the night the player was killed on. Death results in the Doctor losing 1 life.
Indy: RID (no kill, just get ID) 3 random goodie targets.Win ends the game.
- (Loki from Dotl Mafia 2) : 3 dice rolled for-spy, spy dead player, redirect, block, vote redirect, save. Choose one of the actions from the three rolled. 3 kids are Hel, Fenrir, Sleipnir. Also gets a RID guess for each role each night, told how many right, but not which ones. Indy may use spy dead player to role spy dead players (and only dead players), since indy must still correctly RID all 3 targets even if one or more are dead.
|Loki Targets were
Night Stalker, Tigger, Dean
Host's Summary Edit
Game Idea and Expectations Edit
Araver gambled that Jay was Tigger. That is why he redirected Jay to Araver, and tried to RID kill Jay at the same time, hoping to make it look like he was saved from the baddie nk.
That is why part of the story has Doctor saying Araver wanted to be saved by him.
The goodies had some good moves, but I think the MVP for this game goes to Boq. Congrats Boq!
I probably should have swtiched Starbucks to goodie and made Tigger a baddie, though with Tigger target not showing in the np. And moved the rid kill to Rita. I think that would have balanced it better.
And the hex word D1 was Please.
Special commendationsEdit
Host disappointmentsEdit
Alternate endingsEdit
Winning Faction Edit
- Boq - Loki
Day and Night Posts Edit
Intro Night 1 Day 1 Night 2 Day 2 Night 3
The current season of Mafia All Stars ended abruptly, leaving an open spot in the schedule for the season. With a little help from the Doctor, Nana sent the Doctor, Hermione, and Katniss back in time to save everyone for a series of special encore broadcasts.
Starbucks, Rita, and Hellmo decided to band together and put their unique talents to work to ensure they and they alone would triumph this time.
Tigger decided to do what Tiggers do best, BOUNCE! God saw this and was pleased. Dean was crazy as ever and poor old Night Stalker was just lost, wondering what the heck he was doing in the middle of a bunch of era 8 & 9 roles. He missed his old era 3 friends back on the old mafiosphere.
Loki decided to do what Loki's do best: bring about the end.
|Night 1: Two kills are better than none
Nana reporting live from the beautiful Dubai shore! Last night was truly memorable. Tigger spent the night bouncing all around his bestest pal Jay. Nobody else could even get near Jay though for fear of being pounced by a bounce.
Meanwhile. Aura made it clear she did not want to be killed by our baddie trio. Dean decided to do what he could to ensure the baddies did not kill her. All he could do though was kill her himself. Did I mention he is a bit crazy? So he went to his room, browsed his collection of Psycho knives for the perfect one, and went out to find Aura. Upon finding her, he began slashing and stabbing, while crying and sobbing how much he loved her. Fortunately for Aura, he was just stabbing a replica made to look like her.
Hellmo, Starbucks, and Rita were on the prowl for their own victim. Boq would fit the bill nicely. They found him drinking a coffee at a rival of Starbucks, which infuriated him to no end. Starbucks tried to grab Boq to force him to drink Starbucks coffee, but Boq slipped from his grasp. Someone had covered Boq in slippery oil. Try as they might, none of the baddies could hold on to Boq long enough to do anything.
|Day 1: In a word, no.
Nana here on another beautiful day here on the shores of Dubai. After a day of careful deliberations, our contestants could not decide who to vote off, IAWY or Vommack. I had such plans for the victim contestant they decided to send to their grave back home.
Thankfully for our ratings, they were finally able to make up their minds and send IAWY off once and for all. So IAWY, are you ready to go?
"In a word, NO!" And IAWY tried to flee to his room. But I had a bucket of water handy and threw it on him. With that he began to melt and screamed, "what a world, what a world!" Rita Repulsa was no more.
|Night 2: Bounce & Pounce
Bounce, bounce, BOUNCE! Tigger bounced for joy with his new friend Vommack.
Pounce, pounce, POUNCE! Baddies pounced for joy with their new victim Araver.
Vommack was happy with his new friend. Araver, not so much.
Spoiler for Night Actions
|Day 2: You Can't Always Get What You Want
"You'll pay, Barc!" came a voice from the crowd.
"Oh, ok. How much? Ten dollars?" Barc asked innocently.
"No, with your life, you baddie!" shouted another voice.
"But I am not a baddie, I am an indy."
"Even better, we'll lynch you for being indy!"
And with that, Barc broke out into song. Backup singers provided courtesy of MAS 2.
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You just might find You get what you need
(Barc was lynched as Starbucks)
|Night 3: Almost a Perfect Victory
Hermione ran through the hallway bursting with excitement. "I found Loki! I found Loki! He was using the alias Boquise. At last we can be free from his terror!"
"Fantastic!" The Doctor piped in. "I too have news. It turns out that Hellmo killed himself two nights back, hoping I would save him. Tough luck for him that I was away in my Tardis at the time. He was the one known as Araver I believe. Yes, Araver, that's it."
"Woohoo hoohoo skidoooo! Tiggers are besteth at math, and by ole Tigger's math, three dead bodies and three dead baddieth means..." Tigger thought for a moment, "oh yeth, we all survived, all my goodie friends are still alive!" And Tigger bounced for joy.
Dean and Night Stalker were too busy eyeing each other warily to pay any attention, but Katniss smiled and confirmed Tigger was correct, they had all managed to live through this ordeal. She was very happy at that news. God was pleased too.
So the seven of them went to find Loki. "Oh, what is this?" Loki asked.
"We are here to stop you, Loki." Hermione said as she raised her wand.
Loki waved his hand and suddenly Tigger, Night Stalker, and Dean all turned on their fellow goodies. Together with Hel, Fenrir, and Sleipnir, they were more than a match for God, The Doctor, Hermione, and Katniss.
Loki laughed. I have learned to control 3 of you, 3 of you whose unique abilities have made me invincible. I was surprised that every one of you managed to survive, but no matter. With my 3 new puppets there is nothing you can do to stop me. Last night was your last chance but all seven of you could not stop little ole Loki."
"I will stop you," The Doctor said matter of factly. "Let these people go and I will take you where ever you want. Or refuse and I will stop you. I wuuu, I wuu..." The Doctor could no longer control his own speech. He tried to fight it but no to avail. "I will serve you." He too now was under Loki's control.
"Let them go? No, I think not. But perhaps I need not kill them. I suppose I can find some use for the rest of you."
The remaining goodies tried to resist but one by one fell to Loki's control and knelt before him. And he called them his magnificent seven.
What a way to end the season!
Congrats Loki and thank you to all our contestants for playing.

Just finished watching the Marlies - Bulldogs game tonight. Horrible game from the Bulldogs.
- Greg Pateryn was pretty bad tonight, nothing seemed to go his way at all. He blew defensive coverage and couldn't handle the puck at all.
- Antoine Corbin had a bad game as well. He had a few nice plays offensively, but had a too many turnovers for my liking.
- Brendan Nash was very noticeable, he was extremely physical and had was solid on the breakout. He also took some dumb penalties and chased the puck too much.
- Jarred Tinordi was solid. He had some bad moments, but looked very poised.
- Nathan Beaulieu looked fantastic with the puck on his and he had a ton of chances, but he defense was pretty bad. Not good coverage at all, and didn't tried to stickhandle himself out of trouble unsuccessfully a few times.
- Steve Quailer had good moments and that's about it. He uses his size to protect the puck so well, but he isn't the most physical guy. He really showed some good speed too, but was invisible in his own zone.
- Brendan Gallagher was fantastic, he created a ton of chances, but couldn't get his shot off. He crashed the net quite often.
- Michael Bournival played a quiet but solid game. He never ever gave up, it's not to like the kid, even it's just because of his attitude and motor.
- Louis Leblanc left with an injury. It's a same because he was actually playing a pretty good game.
- Aaron Palushaj played a pretty bad game. Sure he had his chances, but the effort level wasn't there tonight.
- Patrick Holland, he had a handful of nice moves and really had some really nice passes. He needs to learn to shoot at better times, and needs to improve his defensive game.
- The only time Gabriel Dumont wasn't invisible was when he was getting punched in the face. Rough game for him.
- Blake Geoffrion is really playing with the some fire. I'm still not sure if he'll ever be an NHLer though. He's not skilled enough for the top 6 and not physical enough for the bottom 6.
- Korbinian Holzer was solid tonight, well he always is, but he particularly good tonight.
- Nazem Kadri had his fair share of chances. He had some really slick moves. I noticed that he got stripped of the very easily though. Players would just skate by him and take the puck. His strength is an issue, but his skill alone should eventually get him an NHL spot.
- Carter Ashton started off quiet, but played better as the game went on. He's playing with emotion and that's something that he's lacked early into this season.
- Jake Gardiner is too good for the AHL. Like way too good.
- Joe Colborne. Did he even play?
- Jesse Blacker was very good tonight. It didn't show up on the boxscore, but he's improved his defensive game so much. He made some solid plays and was very good defensively.
- Greg McKegg started off very strong, slowed down and then finished strong. He's such an underrated prospect, he's got top 6 potential.
- Leo Komarov was very noticeable. I like how he combines his grittiness and skill.
- Jussi Rynnas looked great. He wasn't tested very often, but when he did he came up big. Looked very good out there.

Say there's two girls in front of you... You wears heavy makeup which make her look gorgeous and revealing outfits which look sexy. But she's a bitch and has an attitude and also disrespect god.( and it's obvious that she's dumb and stupid)
The other is a cute, innocent looking girl with no makeup at all and Looks younger than her age. She sometimes wear glasses but is a goodness when she took them off. She look intellectual and quiet, almost unapproachable and mysterious, but can get fun and easy looking when you get to know her well. She reject god of course, but un-talkative but can enjoy herself playing basketball and sweat like there's no tomorrow
Most Helpful Guy
Disrespecting god or whatever, means nothing to me. Dumb and stupid can still be fun, in the short term.
Quiet and unapproachable does not equal mysterious.
Only the quiet and unapproachable people think it does, to make themselves feel better.
There is no point in being good once someone gets to know you. You have to give them a reason to get to know you in the first place.
Right now, girl 2 has given me no reason to get to know her. At least the bitch might be interesting in the short term.00|00|0

Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs on official visit Tuesday to Algeria
APS - 09 January 2017
ALGIERS- Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto will pay Tuesday an official visit to Algeria at the invitation of Minister of State, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Ramtane Lamamra, said Monday Foreign Affairs Ministry in a communiqu�.
The Hungarian minister will be accompanied by Deputy State Secretary Szilveszter Bus, who is in Algeria as part of the preparation for this visit.
Lamamra will assess with his Hungarian counterpart "the bilateral relations in the light of the new impetus given to them in the past few years," said the communiqu�.
"�This new impetus allowed the holding of the 1st session of the bilateral joint Commission in September 2015 in Budapest and the launch of negotiations on several draft agreements in different fields as well as the finalization of other legal instruments in the fields of vocational training, agriculture, culture, archives, ICTs and sport," said the source.
"Hungary attaches a special importance to the strengthening of its relations with our country, in view of the role it plays in the settlement of conflicts by peaceful means and promotion of the values of peace and non foreign intervention in the domestic affairs of other countries," said the source.
In this regard, the two ministers will broach "international issues of common interest."
In addition to his talks with Lamamra, the Hungarian minister will be received by Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal.
Meetings will also be held with minister of agriculture, rural development and fishing as well as minister of industry and mines, added the source.

The Prosperous Towers are a pair of upscale apartment buildings located alongside the Humboldt River on Bismarck Avenue in Lancet, Algonquin in Liberty City. They are located directly to the south of the Algonquin Bridge and the Civilization Committee building.
- The buildings appear to be based on Manhattan's Tudor City, as they are built in a similar location - directly next door to the United Nations complex (which is the basis for the Civilization Committee in game), designed for wealthy clientele, and bare a close resemblance to the real-life apartment complex.

Celebrity Cruises' 2014 Red Sox Fan Cruise aboard Celebrity Silhouette is now open for booking to travel agents, starting at $910 per person, according to the cruise line.
The cruise departs for seven nights to the Western Caribbean on January 12, 2014, with Red Sox legends Keith Foulke, Brian Daubach, Bill "Soup" Campbell, John Tudor and David Stapleton, and WEEI broadcaster Joe Castiglione.
Sailing round-trip from Ft. Lauderdale, the Silhouette visits Cozumel, Grand Cayman, Falmouth and Labadee, with two days at sea.
Guests that are part of the group will be treated to two Red Sox cocktail parties, a martini tasting, and a private beach party with the Red Sox legends group.
The line-up is as follows:
• Keith Foulke- A member of the 2004 World Series Championship team, he was on the mound for the final out when a one bounce ground ball was hit back to him and he flipped to first clinching the team's first World Series Championship since 1918.
• Brian Daubach- Due to his hardnosed style of play and penchant for clutch hitting, he was both a player and fan favorite and only the third left-handed rookie in Red Sox history to hit at least 20 home runs, joining Ted Williams and Fred Lynn.
• Bill "Soup" Campbell- One of the top relief pitchers in all of baseball, he signed with Boston after the 1976 season as one of the first high profile big money free agents in baseball and is tied for the American League record for wins by a reliever in a single season.
• John Tudor- Massachusetts native that was drafted by the Red Sox in the third round of the 1976 draft and is the last Major League player to record 10 or more shutouts in a season to date.
• David Stapleton- Worked his way up the Red Sox minor league system playing for Winter Haven, Bristol and Pawtucket before making his first appearance for the Red Sox in 1080.
Interested parties should can call 888-276-2874 and provide code REDSOX01.

McLaughlin has quality pair for sprint stakes
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin is hoping to get his meet off to a fast start on Saturday when he sends out Past the Point in the Grade 3 Mr. Prospector and brings back world traveler Elusive Warning from an 18-month vacation in the $75,000 Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint.
The Mr. Prospector and Turf Sprint are two of the five sprint stakes that make up Saturday's Gulfstream Park Sprint Showcase program. The 10-race card will also include the Spectacular Bid for 3-year-olds, its filly counterpart the Old Hat, and the Grade 3 Sugar Swirl for older fillies and mares.
Past the Point was transferred to McLaughlin's barn from Eoin Harty following his second-place finish in Aqueduct's seven furlong, Grade 3 Bold Ruler Handicap on Oct. 31. The 6-year-old turned in his most noteworthy performance during the summer of 2008, extending Curlin before finishing second in the Grade 1 Woodward.
"He's kind of a one-run sprinter, a stalking type, and probably better suited to seven furlongs than six," said McLaughlin, who added he intends to run Past the Point in the seven-furlong Gulfstream Park Sprint on Feb. 13 if he runs well Saturday.
Elusive Warning has not started since finishing sixth at Ascot in the Group 2 Summer Stakes in July of 2008. In his previous try, he finished second behind Diamond Stripes in the Group 2 Godolphin Mile. He also won a Group 3 race at Nad Al Sheba earlier that winter. Elusive Warning, a son of Elusive Quality, is undefeated in the United States, having launched his career with a pair of easy victories in New York early in 2007.
"He did a lot of traveling back and forth to Dubai and then had an eye problem, which is the reason he's been off so long, but we need to get him started, and he has been training well," said McLaughlin. "They are calling for some showers Saturday, and I'll only run him if the race stays on the turf."
The Mr. Prospector drew a field of nine topped by Munnings, who will make his first start since finishing third behind Kodiak Kowboy and Fabulous Strike in the Grade 1 Vosburgh on Oct. 3. A multiple Grade 2 winner, Munnings figures to be the favorite over a field that also includes Custom for Carlos.
Elusive Warning will have his work cut out coming off the bench in the Turf Sprint and facing the likes of the undefeated Hockeythehayman, multiple stakes winner Big Push, and the much-improved Hatfield.
Score two for smaller outfits
Four of Wednesday's first six races were won by trainers with some of the largest outfits in the area, including Wesley Ward, Eddie Plesa Jr., Todd Pletcher, and Ken McPeek. But there is still a chance for the little guy in this business as trainers Marcus Vitali and Benny Stutts proved by registering upsets in the afternoon's fourth and sixth races, respectively.
Vitali, who shipped to south Florida following the conclusion of the Suffolk Downs meet in November, sent out Jazz Nation under jockey P.J. Lydon to capture the fourth event for bottom-level claimers.
Stutts, who did such a marvelous job orchestrating the career of the multiple graded stakes winner Smooth Air before the horse was transferred to Chad Brown last summer, won the sixth race with the 19-1 Lemon Punch in a tight photo over McLaughlin's Big Stick. Lemon Punch, like Smooth Air, is owned by the Mount Joy Stable.

Right and left ventricular myocytes originate from different cellular progenitors; however, it is unknown whether these cells differ in their response to endotoxemia. We hypothesized that 1) the percentage of endotoxemic functional depression within the right ventricle (RV) would be smaller than that of the left ventricle; and 2) that better RV function would correlate with lower levels of right ventricular TNF production. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into right and left control and endotoxin groups. Controls received vehicle, while endotoxin groups received LPS at 20 mg/kg ip. Hearts were excised either 2 or 6 h after injection. Hearts excised at 2 h were assayed for TNF, IL-6, TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1), TNFR2, and via ELISA, while hearts excised at 6 h were assayed via the Langendorff model. The percentage of cardiac functional depression, exhibited as developed pressure, contractility, and rate of relaxation (expressed as a percentage of control) was significantly smaller in right ventricles compared with left ventricles following endotoxin exposure. Tissue levels of TNF were significantly elevated in both right and left ventricles 2 h after endotoxin exposure, and right ventricular endotoxin groups expressed higher levels of TNF compared with their left ventricular counterparts. No significant differences in IL-6, TNFR1, or TNFR2 levels were noted between endotoxin-exposed ventricles. This is the first study to demonstrate that right and left ventricular function differs after endotoxin exposure.
- sepsis
- cardiac
- cardiovascular collapse
sepsis, viewed as an extensive version of the acute inflammatory response, has led to increased rates of morbidity and mortality despite advances in clinical and critical care medicine. In the United States, there are over a half-million cases of sepsis annually, with a death rate of 35–65% (20). Polymicrobial sepsis and organ dysfunction are associated with immunosuppression, a predominance of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α and IL-6, as well as a profound loss of lymphocytes via apoptosis (3, 4, 7–9, 19, 25). In addition, various toxins are released from bacteria during sepsis, which serve to further promote cytokine release, vasodilation, oxidative damage, and subsequent cardiovascular collapse (13, 17, 23, 27).
Previous studies from our group have demonstrated that endotoxin induces left ventricular contractile dysfunction, and that certain chemical reagents, including p38 MAPK inhibitors and heat shock protein, can reduce this dysfunction (22, 29). Furthermore, endotoxin preconditioning has been shown to protect cardiac tissue, and it appears that estrogen and the MAPK pathways play a role in this mechanism (2, 15, 24, 30).
Right heart failure, however, is distinctly different from left heart failure and remains an understudied but important component of cardiovascular collapse (26). Recent studies have suggested that the heart forms from two distinctly different progenitor cell populations, known as "heart fields." The primary heart field contributes to the left ventricle (LV) and atria, while the secondary heart field contributes to the right ventricle (RV) and outflow tract (1, 6, 11, 14). Cells from these heart fields are distinguished by specific cellular markers and transcription factors. Primary heart field cells are marked by the T-box transcription factor Tbx5 and the bHLH transcription factor Hand1. Secondary heart field cells are distinguished by the presence of Hand2, the LIM-homeodomain transcription factor Isl1, and Fgf10 (11). Functional genes that encode for proteins that aid in myocardial contraction, such as desmin and the ventricular specific myosin light chain MLC2V show expression in the right ventricle and outflow tract rather than the left ventricle (10). Furthermore, other genes such as the homeobox gene Nkx2-5 are expressed in both heart fields but rely on distinctly different regulatory elements for expression (11). Therefore, endotoxin might logically provoke different responses in these two "distinctly different" types of ventricular cardiomyocytes.
Endotoxin-induced right ventricular dysfunction has previously not been well characterized. Studies on pigs have demonstrated that RV function actually increases during acute endotoxin exposure, and only after energetic costs and myocardial oxygen are consumed does RV function begin to decrease (16). Previous studies have not directly compared the left and right ventricular responses to endotoxin, and therefore, a study of such nature would be useful to determine whether one ventricle's function is affected more so than the other. We hypothesized that 1) the percentage of endotoxemic functional depression within the right ventricle would be smaller than that of the left ventricle; and 2) better RV function would correlate with lower levels of right ventricular TNF production.
Age-matched (275–350 g) normal male Sprague-Dawley rats (Harlan, Indianapolis, IN) were fed a standard diet and acclimated in a quiet quarantine room for 1 wk before the experiments. The animal protocol was reviewed and approved by the Indiana Animal Care and Use Committee of the Indiana University. All animals received humane care in compliance with the "Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals" (NIH publication No. 85–23, revised 1985).
Isolated heart preparation (Langendorff).
Rats were anesthetized (pentobarbital sodium, 60 mg/kg ip) and heparinized (500 U ip), and hearts were rapidly excised via median sternotomy and placed in 4°C Krebs-Henseleit solution [119 mM NaCl, 20.8 mM NaHCO3, 11 mM dextrose, 12 mM CaCl2(2H2O), 47 mM KCl, 11.7 mM MgSO4(7H2O), and 11.8 mM KH2PO4]. The aorta was cannulated, and the heart was perfused under constant pressure (mean 75 mmHg) with oxygenated (95% O2-5% CO2t and −dP/dt) were recorded at EDPs of 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mmHg.
Experimental isolated heart groups.
Rat hearts were divided into the following groups (n = 9 per group): 1) left ventricular control, 2) right ventricular control, 3) left ventricular endotoxin, and 4) right ventricular endotoxin. Rats selected as controls received an intraperitoneal vehicle injection of 1 ml PBS, while those selected for endotoxin injection received 20 mg/kg LPS ip (Salmonella typhimurium LPS; Sigma, St. Louis, MO) dissolved in PBS. Two hours after injection, several animals (n = 4 LV and RV controls, n = 4 LV and RV endotoxins) were anesthetized as above, and hearts were rapidly excised and flushed in retrograde fashion through the aorta with cold Krebs-Henseleit solution. The lateral walls of the left and right ventricles were immediately excised and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for tissue cytokine analysis. Six hours after injection, the remaining animals (n = 5 per group) underwent isolated heart preparation via Langendorff, as previously described.
The presence of TNF, IL-6, TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1), and TNFR2 within control and endotoxin exposed right and left ventricular tissue was determined by ELISA using commercially available ELISA sets (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN and BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA). Heart tissue was homogenized with cold lysis buffer containing 20 mM Tris (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 1% Triton X-100, 2.5 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM Na3VO4, 1 μg/ml leupeptin, and 1 mM PMSF. ELISA was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. All samples and standards were measured in duplicate.
Presentation of data and statistical analysis.
All reported values are expressed as means ± SE, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Data were compared using Student's t-test or two-way ANOVA with post hoc Bonferroni.
The percent of right ventricular functional depression during endotoxemia is smaller than that of the left ventricle.
Twenty milligrams per kilogram of endotoxin significantly depressed both right and left ventricular function as measured 6 h after injection via Langendorff. Endotoxin-induced dysfunction was noted by a significant decrease in right and left ventricular developed pressure (Fig. 1, A and D), contractility (Fig. 1, B and E), and rate of relaxation (Fig. 1, C and F) at all measured EDPs. Maximum depression occurred at an EDP of 5 mmHg for both right (41.94 ± 2.59 to 21.14 ± 1.60 mmHg, P < 0.001) and left ventricles (106.86 ± 4.42 to 33.53 ± 3.45 mmHg, P < 0.01).
Interestingly, the percent of right ventricular functional depression was smaller than that of the left ventricle during endotoxemia. Right ventricular developed pressure, +dp/dt and −dp/dt, expressed as a percentage of control, were significantly higher after endotoxin exposure compared with the LV (Fig. 1, G–I). The greatest difference in systolic function between right and left endotoxin-exposed hearts was noted in the percent preservation of developed pressure at EDP = 5 mmHg (right 50.42 ± 3.82% vs. left 31.378 ± 3.23%).
Coronary flow was also significantly reduced in all endotoxin groups compared with controls (Fig. 2A), and hearts selected for right or left ventricular analysis were injured equally with LPS (Fig. 2B).
Endotoxin elevates tissue levels of TNF.
TNF levels from endotoxin-exposed right and left ventricles were significantly higher than their respective controls 2 h after endotoxin exposure. Interestingly, endotoxin-exposed right ventricles expressed higher levels of TNF (picogram per milligram ventricular tissue) compared with left ventricles (RV: 218.0 ± 27.12 vs. LV: 117.9 ± 6.77, P < 0.05) (Fig. 3A). In contrast, IL-6 levels were not elevated in endotoxin-exposed right or left ventricles compared with controls. There was also no significant difference in IL-6 levels between right and left endotoxin-exposed ventricles (Fig. 3B).
Endotoxin elevates ventricular TNFR2 levels, but not TNFR1 levels.
TNFR2, but not TNFR1, was significantly elevated in endotoxin hearts compared with controls. No significant difference, however, was observed in TNFR1 or TNFR2 levels between right and left ventricles after endotoxin exposure (Fig. 4, A and B).
Because of the prevalence of cardiovascular collapse during sepsis and endotoxemia, endotoxin-induced cardiac dysfunction is of particular interest. Further, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute noted a shortage of scientific studies of the right heart and a paucity of information concerning its dysfunction. Herein, we demonstrated that endotoxin has a less profound effect on right ventricular function compared with left ventricular function, as evidenced by a smaller percentage of right ventricular functional depression during endotoxemia. Furthermore, TNF levels were actually observed to be elevated in right ventricular tissue, which may suggest a degree of TNF resistance in the right ventricle of the heart.
We noted that both right and left ventricular function were decreased with endotoxin exposure, as evidenced by impaired developed pressure, +dp/dt, and −dp/dt. However, the amount of functional depression (expressed as a percentage of control) was noted to be less in right ventricles. This was clearly seen in developed pressure, but was not as obvious in +dp/dt (contractility) or −dp/dt (rate of relaxation). Percentage of right ventricular contractility and rate of relaxation tended to be higher at all EDPs, but only certain points maintained statistical significance. The lack of statistical significance at other points may be due to limitations in the sensitivity of the Langendorff model.
TNF was found to be elevated in hearts exposed to endotoxin. Specifically, TNF levels were elevated in ventricles 2 h after endotoxin injection. A 2-h postinjection time point was chosen to capture peak levels of TNF expression. Moreover, RVs exposed to endotoxin maintained higher levels of TNF than LVs. On the other hand, IL-6 was not significantly elevated in ventricles 2 h after endotoxin injection. IL-6, which functions as an acute phase reactant, was expected to be elevated in endotoxemic animals. As TNF often serves to further elicit the acute phase response, it is possible that this model of endotoxemia requires a longer period of TNF exposure to promote differences in IL-6 expression.
Elevated proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF, have previously been shown to be detrimental to cardiac function (21). Under physiological conditions, TNF effectively activates both of its receptors,TNFR1 and TNFR2 (5). However, during states of inflammation, one TNF receptor may be preferentially activated. TNFR1 activation results in an elevated proinflammatory response and decreased organ function after injury (21, 28), while TNFR2 activation has been shown to initiate protective signaling cascades (12, 18).
In this study, we actually observed a smaller percentage of functional depression in right ventricles after endotoxin exposure despite elevated TNF levels in right ventricular tissue and equivalent levels of TNF receptors between right and left ventricles. Therefore, it is possible that right ventricular myocytes may be more resistant to TNFR1 signaling, which may allow the right ventricle to function optimally in the presence of endotoxemia.
Right ventricular TNF signaling resistance may be due to a number of factors. First, as previously mentioned, right and left ventricular myocytes originate from different progenitor cells. Previous studies have shown different transcriptional regulatory sequences within right and left ventricles (10). Right ventricular cells may therefore retain different signaling mechanisms and intracellular pathways that allow them to perform better in the presence of endotoxins and proinflammatory cytokines. Another possible reason for TNF resistance is the size difference between right and left ventricles. As the LV has six times the mass of the RV, it has a larger cellular makeup that may contain more receptors capable of responding to endotoxins and proinflammatory cytokines. Further studies are therefore needed to elucidate the mechanisms of right ventricular endotoxin and cytokine tolerance. Understanding the mechanisms that the right ventricle uses to maintain better function in the face of endotoxemia may allow for the design and implementation of various therapies to attenuate endotoxemia-induced cardiovascular collapse.

Summers are so short in this part of the world that we almost never go away in July or August. This year was an exception. We had a wedding to attend in Squamish, and we decided to spend an additional 10 days in Squamish, Whistler and Vancouver.
On the way back home, we stopped in New Westminster for a walk on the quay with some friends. If you visit Vancouver, it's worthwhile taking a few days to explore some of the outlying communities like Richmond, White Rock, North Vancouver or New Westminster. I love New West's River Market. It was recently renovated and now has a great gelateria, a lovely tea shop, a Mexican bakery and lots of other good shops and cafes.

Practical ideas for social, emotional and behavioral challenges
Help your child find ways to relax before he responds to a negative situation. Try relaxation techniques at home to see which methods seem to work the best for him.
Come up with a signal you can use in social settings to remind him to stop and try to relax. Develop a similar system he can learn and call up on his own when you're not around. Praise him whenever you see him use a relaxation technique.
"Jacob, I get stressed out too sometimes. I use some techniques to help me relax before I respond to a difficult situation. Some of these strategies might work for you too."
"You could try counting to ten or taking a deep breath. Thinking about something you love or a place you love to be can also help. Sometimes, when I'm really stressed out, I try to take a short walk or listen to some music. Let's think of some different ways you can try to relax at school, home, or at camp when you feel anxious."
"I want to help you work on this. How about we come up with a signal I can use when I see you getting all worked up? What if I pretend to do a big yawn? That will be my way of reminding you to slow down and take a deep breath. Sound good?"
Relaxation techniques don't come naturally. You need to identify different techniques, modify them to fit your child and practice them together.
Ideally, over time your child will develop a system that helps him relax and think before he responds. Getting positive feedback from you will reinforce the value of using these relaxation strategies.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
A person facing misdaemenour charges for a violent crime
1. Scenario 1: DA dismisses the case after sometime due to insufficient evidence
2. Scenario 2: DA dismisses the case after the person completed some sort of diversion. The person never signed a plea of guilty documents
Are both scenarios going to fall under PC 1385. Will there be a reason for dismissal that will pop up in background checks or how easy it is for someone to see the reason for dismissal? If the California PC is different in both scenarios then it is easy to guess why the case was dismissed.
It is not clear from this post what it is you need to know and in what context. But I offer this info: the most useful kind of dismissal in my view is pursuant to Penal Code section 1385 in the interests of justice. There is California case law authority which holds that dismissal on this ground "had same effect as if Deft had never been charged or prosecuted..." And: "… dismissal in furtherance of justice of the charge underlying a prior conviction operates, as a matter of law, to erase the prior conviction as if the Deft had never suffered the conviction in the initial instance. … The deft stands as if he had never been prosecuted for the alleged offense."

thank you. Maybe let me clarify my question. In the second scenario, the charge was dismissed after taking classes. Hence will the reason for dismissal still be 1385. If it will still be 1385, will it say apart from usual language that dismissed due to completion of diversion, etc?
I think you posted this question already. However, both dismissals under PC Section 1385 will show up on a rap sheet as the same, other than the fact that one dismissal will be "in the interest of justice" and the other is "insufficent evidence." It makes little difference, in most contexts which of the two dismissals happened. his question is probably better answered with more detail. It may depend on whom is doing the background check and for what reason.Ask a similar question
Dismissals, expungements, and even sealing of juvenile records do not make them "disappear" as if they never happened. Depending on the circumstances certain parties can still find out about these. In these days of the internet where every detail of your life is on file somewhere whether you want it or not, a determined employer (or pretty much anyone else) could find out what you ate for breakfast yesterday if they really wanted to. The question you must ask yourself is: Would you really want to work for an employer who is concerned about a criminal charge that never resulted in a conviction?

Technically speaking when the DA voluntarily dismisses a case it is always under PC 1385 "in the interests of justice" and they do not have to state their specific reasons. The only thing that will show on a background check when the DA dismisses is just that: "Dismissed PC 1385 interests of justice". However, when the judge dismisses a case under PC 1385, the court minutes must reflect the court's reasons and case law guides the courts on what factors are legit in exercising this great discretion. But, when the court dismisses PC 1385, the background check will likely only show the same as above: "dismissed PC 1385 in the interests of justice". In order for someone to really find out the reasons, then that person should order the transcripts of the court proceedings.

Agreed. In fact, for maximum benefit, the defense counsel should make a specific request of the court to enter the statutory language for the dismissal and the factual basis for it in the minutes -- and often it will be necessary to come back to court with a written request and even a draft of proposed language for the court to enter in the minutes.
