Exhibition Islam
As Salamu'Alaikum & Greetings.
Welcome to The Islam Gallery, a unique initiative that has been launched as a partnership between The Global Centre for Introducing the Messenger, The Islamic Cultural Centre and Exhibition Islam. The aim of this permanent exhibition is to disseminate greater awareness and understanding of the noble life of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his Divinely revealed message to humanity. Designed to be a purpose-built, modern and permanent exhibition, the facility provides a colourful and rich overview of the various tenants of Islam which can be viewed by the many visitors to The Islamic Cultural Centre.
The exhibition has been designed to complement the various other functional and operational requirements of the mosque, thus allowing the centre to use the same hall space for multi-purpose usage. This exhibition provides an overview of the fundamental beliefs of the Islamic faith, the life of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the revelation and preservation of the Noble Qur'an and the origins of creation.
This exhibition, the first of its kind to be built in the United Kingdom, occupies over 60 meters of wall space and provides visitors with a visual journey through the Islamic faith. The wall based exhibition spans across two of the basement halls and incorporates video screens, models and posters to provide a multidimensional viewing experience for visitors.
The exhibition aims to provide a greater understanding of the universal message of Islam, thereby encouraging meaningful and positive dialogue and promoting greater community understanding and harmony.
We hope you enjoy your visit and are enriched by the experience of the exhibition.

"I see a dermatologist in LA, called Dr Harold Lancer, who is incredible. I've known him for years — he sorted my skin out. I used to have really problematic skin and he said to me, 'You have to eat salmon every single day.' I said, 'Really, every day?' And he said, 'Yes; breakfast, lunch or dinner, you have to eat it every single day.'"
But it's not exactly clear what Beckham means by "problematic skin" (acne? rosacea? psoriasis? eczema?) so it's hard to say for sure whether her dermatologist's advice is sound.

What is turmeric– and what are the main health benefits of turmeric?
If you love curries, you're probably familiar with turmeric. It's the bright-orange spice that gives curry its vibrant yellow colour, but its benefits extend far beyond its culinary superpowers!
In this article, we'll explain what turmeric is, the main health benefits of turmeric and ways to incorporate it into your diet and supplement regimen.
What is turmeric?
Turmeric derives from the ginger family – it comes from the root of the flowering perennial Curcuma longa plant, which originated in India. Its active ingredient, curcumin, is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Turmeric's health-promoting properties have made it a long-standing staple in the diets of yogis and Ayurveda practitioners, and it has recently gained mainstream attention as a 'superfood'.
What are the main health benefits of turmeric?
A nutritional powerhouse, turmeric contains essential oils, minerals and fibre. Just one tablespoon of ground turmeric contains:
9 g protein
4 g carbohydrates
196 mg potassium
7 mg iron
In addition to its impressive nutritional profile, turmeric shows promising health benefits.
Here are six potential health benefits of turmeric:
1. Reduced Inflammation
Curcumin has been shown to improve the chronic inflammation associated with rheumatism, inflammatory bowel diseases, and knee joint arthrosis. Traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda have long used turmeric to treat arthritis, and current research suggests that turmeric extract could reduce some of the pain associated with osteoarthritis.
2. Improved Memory
Studies suggest that another active ingredient in turmeric, turmerone, might be helpful to people who have had strokes or who suffer from Alzheimer's disease. Turmerone is thought to help initiate cell repair and potentially support the recovery of brain function.
Curcumin also shows promise in preventing the development of Alzheimer's and in improving memory function in people who are already suffering from the condition.
3.Lowered Heart Disease Risk
Turmeric's antioxidant properties and ability to reduce inflammation suggest that it could help lower the risk of heart disease. Studies have shown that turmeric may also help reverse heart disease by increasing resistance artery endothelial production, which plays a significant role in high blood pressure. Another study showed that patients who took a curcumin supplement a few days before and after coronary artery bypass surgery saw a 65% decreased risk of having a heart attack in hospital.
4. Reduced Diabetes Risk
Curcumin has been shown to improve the insulin sensitivity of blood cells, which has a positive effect on elevated blood sugar levels. The cells can absorb more sugar from the blood, which helps control blood sugar levels. Researchers have also found that turmeric supplements can be an effective preventative measure against developing diabetes.
5. Depression Relief
People who suffer from depression have lower levels than are normal of a protein called brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). A recent study showed that curcumin can boost BDNF levels – and another study showed that it was equally effective as the antidepressant Prozac in lessening symptoms of depression. Other research suggests that curcumin might also increase serotonin and dopamine levels – the chemicals that regulate mood.
6. Better Weight Control
Bitter substances in turmeric root stimulate bile production, which detoxifies the body and helps with the digestion of fat. Inflammation is a major contributor to weight problems, so curcumin's anti-inflammatory properties can help manage metabolic disorders caused by chronic inflammation. Curcumin also affects the digestive process by helping the body to excrete food more quickly, which makes it more difficult for fat cells to build up. In fact, turmeric's ability to help with digestion is what first led to its popularity in curries. Turmeric's metabolism-boosting effects also promote muscle development – and the more muscle you have, the faster your metabolism!
What foods contain turmeric?
Turmeric is a spice, so you won't encounter it on its own. It must be intentionally added to food as a seasoning during preparation. Turmeric is most commonly known in its dried and ground form, which is often described as tasting 'bitter, pungent and earthy'. It's also available as a fresh root that can be chopped or grated, making it a versatile ingredient that be easily incorporated into a variety of recipes. However, turmeric is most effective when taken as a supplement.
Turmeric-Based and Curcumin Supplements
While using turmeric in your cooking can provide some antioxidant benefits, it's not the best way to reap its potential health benefits. Turmeric-based supplements extract its active ingredient, curcumin, so they contain more potent levels of curcumin than you'll find in your supermarket.
Something else to consider is that curcumin is poorly absorbed by the body on its own. However, research shows that piperine, a bio-active compound found in black pepper, can enhance the absorption of curcumin into the bloodstream by up to 2,000 percent! Scientists don't know exactly why this is, but the two most common theories are that piperine makes it easier for curcumin to pass through the intestinal wall and that it slows the breakdown of curcumin in the liver – both of which would lead to higher blood concentrations of this powerful compound.
DESEJR® offers a high-quality curcumin supplement that's been enriched with peperine for easier absorption. This one-capsule-a day supplement is 100% vegan and free from artificial flavours and colourings, added sugar, GMOs, lactose, gluten, and most common allergens.
Like curcumin, Peperine also has anti-inflammatory properties and has been shown to improve digestion – so it makes good sense to combine these compounds into a single smartly formulated supplement.

Epsom Downs Racecourse and William Hill today announced a groundbreaking Official Betting Partnership for the Investec Derby Festival. The five-year agreement provides a platform to build betting revenues and increase interest from the betting community in the lead-up to the event.
The long-term deal is the result of continued dialogue between Epsom Downs and William Hill following the 2010 Investec Derby Festival. More than 125,000 people attended Investec Derby Day last year, which included the most watched flat race on British television, the Investec Derby.
The partnership that unites the Greatest flat race in the world and The Home of Betting covers a multi-channel betting platform, including the UK's largest high-street shop estate, online via www.williamhill.com, via a dedicated new microsite www.theroadtothederby.co.uk and mobile via Epsom Downs new iPhone App.
The partnership will be activated via online, mobile and print executions, with particular attention being paid to both parties social media and marketing in William Hill's shops, including highly-coveted window space.
"I'm delighted with this new commercial partnership. Ralph Topping voiced constructive concerns after last year's Investec Derby, but the Epsom team sat down with William Hill, looked together at how we can grow betting revenues around the event and forged this partnership.
The partnership between Epsom Downs and William Hill sees the introduction of The Road to the Derby micro-site (http://www.theroadtothederby.co.uk), designed to provide punters with all the information they require about the Investec Derby Festival. The website features exclusive news, footage and insight into the Investec Derby and its lead-up trial races along with footage from the Investec Oaks and its trials; all provided by Racing UK.
The new site aims to deliver a narrative for the Investec Derby Festival throughout the Flat season across the event itself and will monitor two-year old activity leading up to the following year's renewal.
The partnership includes exclusive 'in-App betting' with William Hill via Epsom Downs' recently-launched App for iPhone. In addition to offering consumers the opportunity to place bets, the Epsom Downs racecourse App provides event information, racecards, latest odds and race results. The App is available through Apple's App Store by searching for 'Epsom Downs Racecourse'.

This elegant gold medallion was presented to Oscar Robertson for his "Best Mental Attitude During Training." One look at Robertson's long career, stretching from his high school days through college and the Olympics and then his NBA days, shows how a devotion to training kept him physically and mentally fit through more than three decades of basketball. The 1/10-karat gold-filled medallion was made by the C.B. Dyer Jewelry Company (hallmarked on reverse) and depicts an Olympic athlete being crowned with a laurel wreath. "CB Dyer Trophy" is inscribed on the obverse along with the award title. Measuring 3 cm in diameter with a weight of 8 grams, the medal shows some surface scuffing, particularly on the unadorned reverse, yet remains in extremely fine condition on the obverse and overall. Includes LOA from Oscar Robertson.

My husband and I, along with our 3 daughters (4, 14, 16) just got back from the Sunset Vistas. We stayed in Orlando 4 nights and then moved to Sunset Vistas for 3 nights. We wanted to relax on the beach and chill after the crazy Orlando crowds. That is exactly what we got. Treasure Island is a quiet little town without any hustle or bustle. We spent 3 days on the beach and it never felt crowded.
The resort itself is located in a great spot directly on the ocean. The rooms are set up so that all balconies aim toward the ocean, although I don't imagine you'd have much of a view from the ones further back by the street. We were lucky enough to have a condo on the 6th floor, first back from the direct ocean view. I had emailed the resort directly and requested a high floor with a great view, and that is exactly what we got! The sunset from our balcony was fantastic!
Although we spent most of the time at the beach, we did use the pool as well. It's not real big, but it wasn't very crowded when we where in it. I can't believe I'm saying this, as I'm usually always cold; however the pool water was very warm! It was hot out and I jumped in the pool expecting it to feel refreshing, but it didn't. It felt more like a hot tub. Felt good early in the morning or late at night though.
The condo was good sized for a family of 5. The only downfall is both bedrooms had a queen sized bed. One of my teens refuses to sleep in the same bed as her sister, so she slept on the hide-a-bed in the living room and the 4 yr old slept with the other teen in the queen bed. It all worked out! Our bed in the master was very comfortable! I love down comforters, so it's always a treat to stay some place that has them instead of cheap bedspreads. I read a different review where they said their bed was not comfortable; however that was not the case with ours. Not sure about the comfort of the couch, as we had it pulled out into a bed and never folded it back up to sit on. Other than to shower and sleep, we were never in the room.
We did eat breakfast twice at the little café on the 2nd floor. The ladies there were friendly and the meal was quick and cheap. We also visited the Tiki Bar on several occasions and had a couple yummy drinks!
All in all, our stay was great! It's not easy to find something affordable directly on the beach in the Clearwater/St Pete area - however Sunset Vistas fits the bill! I would not hesitate to go back!


best horizontal and vertical shooter SNES games?
The spirit of 1994's arcade classic RayForce is kept alive with chaotic multilayered action where lock-on lasers are your best friend. Some random faceless wizard turning your bishoujo princess pal pre-pubescent? Why, oh, why could they not make a football game look this good?? Even though the stages were separated by goal points and a map screen, it felt rewarding just to overcome the challenges to have the chance to explore each new crevice of this stunning world. Having a sword for automatic close-range attacks is also a brilliant gameplay addition. Shoot em up Games Play Shoot em up Games on Emulator Online. The two arcade ones are really great, as is Mazinger Z.
Squadron is a side-scrolling shooter made by Capcom in 1989. Streets of Rage— One of the most fun Genesis games ever. Also, do you prefer vertical or horizontal shoot-em-ups? This game took all the good things about the original Metroid, and made them better. Eventually progressing to amphibian, reptile, possibly bird, mammal, and even human, the power of evolution has never been so fun! Darklaga was not a home-brew title. If you'd like to learn more about this package, check out my full review: Is Solvalou shooting three shots at once? I also highly recommend Parodius for the and and , which use the same power-up system—any of the three could have filled this top 10 slot equally well.
G-Darius is probably the best of the old-school Darius games with gorgeous 3D graphics and incredible fine-tuned gameplay. Coryoon Aliens invading from another galaxy? It was also highly playable! A bit of shame, as one of these, Biometal, was actually a rather bold step forward for the genre at large; Athena, in fact, remained fond enough of it to include a mini-sequel, Biometal Gust, on Dezaemon 2 for the Saturn. Your ship can take a few shots before exploding, but each one will knock a main weapon offline. Check out and play the games on these lists and take a trip down memory lane. Beyond this, you're not going to find anything revolutionary in game design here.
If you can't get enough R-Type then it's worth tracking down a copy of R-Types, too, as it contains the first two arcade games on one disc. Being able to choose which level to tackle is awesome and the airplane and weapon upgrade system is cool too. This game is deep with options! If you want a straight up action platformer, they have you covered. You start with three different primary weapons and a secondary weapon. Other characters are from various Konami games,like Twinbee, and the penguin from Yume penguin Monogatari.
What makes this game so great is how refined each element is. The game was fun, if not a bit tedious and did have a few varied attacks and the use of weapons. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of eating a Shyguy, creating an egg out of my rear end from him, then using that egg to kill all of his buddies. Now, not only did Mega Man's stages scale horizontally, but vertically, too, giving more freedom than ever before. Have your own Top 10 in mind? Perhaps this genre takes itself too seriously and should better be envisioned with ample humor and lightheartedness. Power Rangers is awesome and cheap! Some were original, many were copycats, but there's no doubt that fans at the time had countless platformers from which to choose.
Did I mention that the graphics are amazing, too? Anyway, all four selectable craft barely need power-ups, since their charge shots ready themselves so quickly and do so much damage, but you know what? Of course, the top choice went well and beyond the call of duty, so far—in fact—that it was impossible to devote this slot to just one game. It is slightly mysterious why Taito would have renamed it so foolishly, but there it is. It has so much to offer. What games would you have included? The boss battle to the left is misleading; levels are actually very detailed and colorful. If you enjoy the game, be sure to vote for it and leave a comment. Side scrolling games started to disappear with the move from 8-bit to 16-bit gaming, and by the time the Nintendo 64 rolled around they were almost totally obsolete.
If you'd like your game list to appear here here, please share it with us on or. At the beginning of each level your combat-hungry mech is granted two main weapons, generally some type of gun plus a beam sword: the former usually requires a short break to recharge between volleys, encouraging players to spend lots of quality time snuggling right up to targets before cleaving them gingerly in half. Naturally, there's a really cool laser weapon, too, which snakes across the screen in an increasingly impressive pattern as you crank up the juice. This indispensable device has offensive applications too: it can be hurled, boomerang style, to pierce right through larger targets, or expanded outwards to pick off pesky small ones. I can't think of any other developer that dominated a genre across three different consoles like Compile did.
Slam this cart into your Super Nintendo the next time someone attempts to belittle your system for not having any good sports titles! An obscure but great shooting game. The game was a major hit for Sega and become one of the biggest draws to their breakout console. Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts is a hard game, but it's fair, and it's really fun. Bones Brigade - Genesis Software 1989 - 42% 4. Yoshi really is a renaissance man. Most of them nothing to write home about. Narrowing down over twenty years and thousands of titles into just ten games was no easy task and a few great games had to be skipped over.

At least 9 officers open fire on 2 women after high-speed chase in Bellaire area; innocent bystander shot

HOUSTON — Nearly a dozen officers were forced to open fire on two women who led them on a high-speed chase which ended in the Bellaire area Monday night, according to Houston police.
Officers attempted to pull over a black Cadillac Escalade for traffic violations at the Southwest Freeway and Bissonnet.
The driver, Katrina Bendslev, 32, refused to stop, and led officers on a high-speed chase.
Officers allegedly witnessed the passenger, Raeanna McFadden, 28, throw two syringes and a small bag of methamphetamine out of the vehicle's window onto the Southwest Freeway.
Bendslev exited the South Loop into a residential neighborhood and turned off her lights. She then drove to the 4500 block of Sunburst, a dead-end street. There were large fences at the intersection near Newcastle, which prevented her from fleeing further.
Officers attempted to stop the women again, and as they were outside of their vehicles giving Bendslev and McFadden verbal commands, Bendslev struck a fire hydrant and reversed at a high rate of speed, hitting at least two marked patrol vehicles. Bendslev then accelerated toward the officers, according to HPD.
Fearing for their lives, nine HPD officers discharged their weapons and struck the vehicle several times. None of the officers suffered any injuries.
A nearby resident was shot inside her home when a bullet entered through the front window. The victim was transported to Ben Taub Hospital where she was treated and released.
Bendslev and McFadden sustained gunshot wounds, and were also transported to Ben Taub Hospital. Thier injuries are unknown.
Bendslev has been charged with aggravated assault against a public servant, and McFadden was charged with tampering with evidence.
This case is being investigated by the HPD Homicide Division Special Investigations Unit, the HPD Internal Affairs Division and the Harris County District Attorney's Office.

Here is Part 2 of my unintended 3-part series recapping my first CrossFit competition, the Spring Fling!
Event #2: a quickie – in 4:00 complete the following movements.
That's right. Just rowing and burpees for four minutes. Piece of cake, right?
I had a good half hour until my heat was up for Event #2, so I took the opportunity to eat a banana, and re-listen to the Harder to Kill Radio podcast episode #53, which I just heard the week before when Shane Farmer was a guest and talked about the three biggest tips to improve your rowing technique. Since Event #2 was half about the rowing, I was hoping to see if I could score a better time with Shane's suggestions.
The heats blazed through since they were so quick, and soon it was my turn. I tried to guesstimate my score based on how I usually perform in workouts. On a good day I could probably finish a 500m row in 2:20, but it was more likely I would finish in 2:30 since my legs were still shaking from Event #1. For burpees, my best as-many-burpees-as-you-can-in-a-minute time was 16 (and a half!) so I thought in 90 seconds I could probably crank out 20. Maybe. Factoring in for fatigue.
The 3-2-1 go sounded, and I grabbed the rower handles and pushed hard with my legs. I focused on the tips from the podcast: rowing is 60% leg work, 30% body work, and 10% arm work, so 1) make sure you think about pushing instead of pulling: push with your legs out, and think about pushing with your arms back out on the return; 2) really use the return to recover, relax the body and take it easy; and 3) don't push with just the balls of your feet; the push should come from the middle of the foot, so you engage more of the big leg muscles.
My row was 2:04. I couldn't believe it. Just one massive push from being sub-2:00. Thank you, Shane Farmer!
Elated by my awesome personal best row time, I was now thinking, "shoot, now I have an extra 25 seconds of burpees!" My legs were so shot from the rowing, but I threw myself down on the floor and slogged them out as fast as possible. I stumbled once jumping on the plate, so that was probably a no-rep, but I kept grinding away. I was just in the middle of my 20th burpee when they called time, so I ended with a score of 19. Argh, so close to my guesstimate of 20!
So I ended with an official score of 2:04 and 19, which was 12th overall for the row and 15th for the burpees.
Then I went and ate an Epic bar and canned sweet potatoes, then napped in my car for a bit, since it was over an hour until the third event and I was kinda feeling a bit tired.
Rest up, it's almost time for Event #3 recap coming out this evening!
Great job on your rowing PR!


Racquet Sports Industry :: International Portfolio :: PRO IT Service S.R.L. - Choose a professional and accessible service for your online image!
Racquet Sports Industry web master wanted me to code the Racquet Sports Industry new interface design and to develop this online magazine Web site based over movable type.
The work involved coding the Racquet Sports Industry online magazine new interface in Web page format, to install movable type and code the Web site around this publishing platform, as well as host it under our movable type professional facilities.
At the begging of February, 2007 the Greg Raven, web master at United States Racquet Stringers Association, came to me and asked for help on some custom fields his movable type v3.x implementation was using.
They were having a movable type technical guy on their team which left the boat and so they ended up with difficulties on upgrading to a new movable type release due to the hacks that movable type guy applied directly to the application.
I've helped Greg fix the issue he had and since he and his colleagues liked the work that I've done, a few days later Greg proposed me to work on a Web site project for him.
The project was actually for the Racquet Sports Industry online magazine. He just had an interface design in graphical format that he wanted transformed in a real Web site backed on movable type.
My assignment on this project was to slice the design in xhtml v1.0 transitional and css v2.1, in table less format, compatible across any platform combination and optimized for search engines, then to setup his domain under one of my company hosting servers rented from Pair Networks Inc., install movable type and then develop the required movable type section to fulfill the Web site publishing requirements.
Since the Racquet Sports Industry Web site was meant to have a couple of distinctly managed content, I've proposed the client to split the project in three sections as three separate blogs and to nicely integrate them together so that basically the end user won't notice anything, while these sections would behave just as the customer wanted them to.
Since then, we've occasionally implemented various other extra features, such as LightBox integration for people to be able to nicely see full screen photos when clicking on their thumbnails on site, such as different ads displayed randomly and more.
We've also continuously upgraded the movable type installation any time a new version was available.
I am going to show you below two screen captures, one for the Racquet Sports Industry main page and another for an individual article Web page.
For seeing the Web site consider going to www.racquetsportsindustry.com.

New Miracle Drugs: What Would You Pay?
Posted January 8, 2015 by Ricki Lewis, PhD in Uncategorized
Levi Collazo, before and after taking Kalydeco for CF.
Levi Collazo, a biology major at Southwestern Oklahoma State University, has cystic fibrosis (CF).
"In the first photo, I was making fun of my own weight. I've always used humor as a defense mechanism. I weighed 110 pounds. I'm 5'10". After taking Kalydeco for 2 years, I'm up to 148 pounds," he wrote on the Facebook page Kalydeco Miracles.
The success of Kalydeco for some people with CF – "K" to its fans – is astonishing. The drug corrects misfolding of the CFTR protein that certain mutations cause.
THE STORY OF 'K'
When the daily pill, developed by Vertex Pharmaceuticals, came on the market in 2012, only the 2,000 or so patients who have a specific mutation could use it. The drug cost $294,000 a year. Since then, further clinical trials have swelled the patient pool to about 3,100. The FDA approved the drug for a tenth mutation December 29, 2014.
Families still fight insurance companies for coverage, but the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has funded development of Kalydeco and recently sold royalty rights, and is using the $3.3 billion to help patients and fund further research. With 75,000 people in North America, Europe and Australia having CF and trials on extension to other mutations continuing, the market may increase, and perhaps the price decrease.
Madi Vanstone, age 12, learned in June that the Ontario Drug Benefit formulary would cover the cost of her K and of everyone else's in the province with a treatable mutation. Before that, insurance had been paying half of the $348,000 annual cost and Vertex 30%, leaving $60,000 for the family to cover. Without daily K, Madi would have needed a lung transplant in a few years and might not have survived her teens. Now, she has a future.
What would you pay to treat a debilitating and deadly disease?
Over the past few months, we've seen incredible price tags for groundbreaking new medical treatments.
Glybera is the first gene therapy approved in the western world. It treats lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
GLYBERA, THE FIRST GENE THERAPY
Like Kalydeco, Glybera debuted in 2012. Amsterdam-based company UniQure with partner Chiesi make Glybera, the only approved gene therapy in the western world.
Glybera treats painful and lethal lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD). The price in Germany, announced in late November, set a new record for a medicine to treat a rare disease: $1.4 million for the one-time series of 42 intramuscular injections that should banish the disease.
In LPLD triglycerides build up in the pancreas, liver, skin, and spleen. About 1,000 Europeans have LPLD, and it affects one in a million in the US – about 323 people. Prevalence is greater in Quebec due to a founder effect: French and Scottish settlers introduced two mutations three centuries ago. In the province 1 in about 6,000 people has the disease.
John Kastelein, Colin Ross, and Michael Hayden recall Glybera's long developmental trajectory, which began in Hayden's lab at the University of British Columbia, in a compelling article in Human Gene Therapy. In September 1986 they met a 19-year-old with sky-high triglycerides, painful pancreatitis, and skin lesions, and identified his LPLD mutation. A severely fat-restricted diet hadn't helped.
Experiments using mice and cats followed, and eventually clinical trials tested several versions of a gene therapy delivered in adeno-associated virus. In severely affected patients, abdominal pain diminished, lipid levels fell, and they could eat more, including foods they couldn't tolerate before. One patient even had a baby.
What would you pay to treat a painful and deadly disease?
Glybera costs so much because it is first-of-its-kind, was decades in development, and encountered an unusually thick regulatory morass. And the market is very small, so the monumental development costs must be divided by a small number of patients.
But Glybera is the test case for much wider application of the technology, which UniQure is exploring for several other indications. One is hemophilia B, the clotting disorder mentioned in the Talmud and seen in Queen Victoria and some of her descendants.
HEMOPHILIA AND BLINDNESS GENE THERAPY WILL BE CHEAPER
Doing the math for hemophilia B, it's easy to see how gene therapy will earn out its development cost. This is the less common form of the clotting disorder, affecting 4,000 people in the US.
Traditional treatment is the missing protein, clotting factor IX (FIX). It came first from blood donations, then using recombinant DNA techniques after HIV in the blood supply infected 90% of people with hemophilia in the 1980s.
Giving FIX protein to treat hemophilia B is expensive, painful, frequent, and not entirely effective. It costs $100,000 a year if used only to treat "bleeds," and up to $250,000 if given 2 or 3 times a week to prevent bleeding. That's about $20 million over a lifetime.
But giving the FIX gene — the instructions for cells to make the protein — could last forever and costs about $30,000. The lower price may be because the gene is small and simpler to insert into the viruses that carry out gene therapy than others, and a tiny jump in FIX level makes a huge difference in clotting time and how a patient feels. The promise of hemophilia B gene therapy is why several teams are racing to get it to the clinic. (Spark Therapeutics recently partnered with Pfizer to develop the gene therapy). I predict it will be among the first gene therapy approvals here.
My #1 prediction for first-to-be-approved gene therapy in the US is for Leber congenital amaurosis type 2 (LCA2), chronicled in my book The Forever Fix (shameless book plug in honor of pub date anniversary, today.) The treatment for this form of hereditary blindness won't cost much, for several reasons: delivery into the eye is well-established, the inventors have forsaken earning anything, and kits are ready to ship to ophthalmologists.
Another intriguing new drug is Cerdelga™, to treat type 1 Gaucher disease. The FDA approved it in 2014.
Bone loses cells in Gaucher disease.
GAUCHER DISEASE – FROM INFUSION TO PILL
Gaucher disease type 1 causes an enlarged liver and spleen, anemia, poor clotting, collapsed hips, arthritis, impaired lung function, bone pain and fractures. Cells become packed with lipids, and symptoms may begin at any time. It's autosomal recessive, but carriers may develop a Parkinson-like condition later in life.
An earlier treatment for Gaucher, Ceredase, came on the market in 1991. Developed at Genzyme Corporation, Ceredase was an infusion and the first enzyme replacement therapy. In 1994. Cerezyme replaced it, made using recombinant DNA technology and altered to target fat-engorged Gaucher cells. Globally 5,000 people take Cerezyme, including 1,500 in the US.
Cerezyme works, but delivery isn't easy. Dose and schedule of IV administration must suit each patient.
"For people receiving Cerezyme for a long time, that adds up to a lot of infusions and having to be poked every few weeks limits one's schedule," Gerald Cox, MD, PhD, Vice President of Clinical Development for Rare Diseases at Genzyme told me. A pharmacist must provide the drug and a nurse administer it, at home or at a clinic. "When we asked patients what more they would like from a treatment, they all wanted a pill," Dr. Cox said.
(Genzyme)
So Genzyme researchers sought another way to intervene in the biochemistry – alleviate the buildup of substrate that occurs when an enzyme is blocked, as it is in Gaucher. FDA approved the substrate reducer Cerdelga – a capsule! – last year. Clinical trials were complicated, requiring patient volunteers to give up Cerezyme to test its new cousin.
The price per patient? $310,250 a year, a little more than its predecessor. Dr. Cox explains why.
"Orphan diseases follow a little different set of ground rules. There's a lot of investment. But we have to go through all the regulatory hurdles that all the other companies do for common diseases, and when they want to recoup that investment there are 10 million people who are going to use the drug. You can keep the cost low because so many people are going to use it. But for an orphan disease with 5,000 worldwide, if you invest and divide by the number of patients, it winds up being a high price." Relaxing regulations and shift of drug development towards academia might help for the ultrarare diseases, he adds, or foundations or governments stepping in, like for Kalydeco.
What would you pay to treat a painful and highly disruptive disease?
DOING THE MATH FOR USE IN THE US
• Kalydeco for CF: 3,100 patients, ~$300,000/year each. For a 10-year-old who lives until 60, that's about $15 million.
• Glybera for LPLD: 323 patients, ~$1.4 million/lifetime
• Cerdelga for Gaucher: 1,400 patients, ~$310,000/year each.
We've all heard the big pharma mantra, "R&D for a drug takes 10 to 15 years and more than $1 billion." Add the costs of buying companies (like Sanofi bought Genzyme), and of discontinued clinical trials. Yet the treatments are justified when there isn't anything else or existing approaches don't work well or for everyone.
Now let's look at hepatitis C.
Hepatitis C virus
THE HEP C CONUNDRUM
Hepatitis C is hardly a rare disease. About 2% to 3% of the global population has it – that's 130 to 170 million people, including 3.2 million in the US. It's more prevalent than HIV infection, and many people are unaware that they have it and can spread it. You'd think that's enough people to keep costs down.
For more than two decades, treatment for hepatitis C infection has been the cytokine interferon and the antiviral ribavirin, which only some patients can take and which can make people pretty miserable. Availability of new drugs, based on the success of HIV antivirals, was good news indeed.
Last April, the World Health Organization called for assessing all infected people for two new drugs, because more treated people can block transmission.
An editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine was unusually optimistic: "Collectively, these regimens promise to transform hepatitis C from a condition requiring complex, unsatisfactory therapies and specialist care to one that can be effectively treated and easily managed by a general physician with few contraindications and side effects."
But consider the price.
My friend Fred took the 3-month course of interferon/ribavirin/Solvadi. "My insurer paid. I paid only $20 for the whole course. That's the good news. The bad news is that I relapsed after 90 days and am now on a newer combination drug, Harvoni. It's reported to cost even more ($1,124) per tablet and I'll need to take it for 6 months." Solvadi is about $1,000 a pill.
Fred hopes he doesn't get any surprise bills. "Keep your fingers crossed for me, this time I'm going to win!"' Success rates for the new drugs are in the mid 90% range.
The drug combinations are confusing. Harvoni is Solvadi plus a viral inhibitor called ledipasvir. Both combinations are from Gilead Sciences.
Olysio, at $733 a day, is from Janssen Pharmaceuticals and is taken with Solvadi, interferon, and ribavirin.
Viekira Pak, developed by AbbVie and approved last month, for about $925 a pill, combines three new antivirals and one old one. Like the hugely successful HIV drugs, these newcomers target various steps in the choreography of viral entry into human cells and replication.
Why do the hepatitis C drugs cost so much? A New York Times article lists a few justifications: R&D expenses, superiority to older treatments, future savings from preventing complications. True, the drugs seem to cure, compared to the HIV drugs that lighten viral load (unless hepatitis C virus peeks out in a few years). And Gilead paid $11 billion to the company that originated Sovaldi. But I don't get it.
Prices in Pakistan, Egypt, China and India will reportedly be much lower. And by one estimate, cost to manufacture is actually about $150 to $250 per patient. A medical economist posited that it will take treating about 150,000 patients to recoup development costs.
What would you pay to stop a deadly disease? And how long would you wait?

Espriu's cooperatives are responding to the crisis caused by the covid-19 pandemic with actions and measures that underpin their commitment to caring for health and serving society. In accordance with the cooperative values and principles that guide their actions, the cooperatives have drawn up action plans which at all times place people centre stage.
In terms of employment, cooperative enterprises that make up the Espriu Foundation have facilitated working from home to protect health and guarantee the safety of employees, thereby helping to contain the spread of coronavirus, while at the healthcare level additional medical and nursing staff have been taken on in order to meet the increase in demand.
Hospitals have adapted to these exceptional circumstances by restructuring their facilities, increasing the capacity in place, creating new Intensive Care Units, with a twofold increase in some cases, and reassigning professionals, all with the aim of prioritising patients affected by covid-19.
All these initiatives have been developed in accordance with the guidelines issued by the health authorities, while also cooperating fully with the public health system.
Assistència Sanitaria, the insurance company of the doctors' cooperative Autogestió Sanitària, has established a specific free telephone advice service open to the whole population, with a team of the organisation's healthcare professionals providing guidance and clarifying queries about coronavirus. It has also strengthened its communication strategy and is developing a partnership project to maintain medical practices that have been affected.
Through the Asisa group the Lavinia cooperative has reinforced all its user response channels, both by telephone and digitally, while also launching Asisa LIVE, a new telemedicine service allowing medical appointments to be maintained remotely via mobile devices or computers in around twenty specialist fields, already handling over 2,500 appointments every week. The cooperative has likewise devised the AhoraMasQueNuncaTranquilidad.es portal, with a message of "keep calm, now more than ever", with helpful content concerning exercise, nutrition, mental health, sleep and working from home, backed up by Asisa Group professionals.
The HLA hospital network which is also owned by the cooperative has treated more than 6,000 patients for covid-19, with 1,500 of them having been admitted and over 170 requiring ICU treatment.
The Scias cooperative's Hospital de Barcelona, which is the Assistència Sanitària flagship, has reorganised all its activities, maintaining urgent and oncological surgery while suspending all other scheduled procedures so as to focus all its capacity on treating the population affected by the pandemic.
Both Assistència Sanitària and Asisa have joined forces with other insurers to protect the healthcare personnel combating coronavirus, by contributing to the solidarity fund set up by the insurance sector to cover all those who are caring the health of the citizens.

Finding water around your furnace is a homeowner's worst dream. Is it a heating and cooling malfunction or plumbing issue? It's hard to confirm without an expert doing an inspection, but Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning is here with a couple HVAC issues that could cause a leaky furnace.
A standard-efficiency furnace should not have condensation so if your system does, it could be that the flue pipe was not sized correctly. The heated exhaust could be cooling and condensing within the pipe, then draining back into your furnace and leaking out.
Typically condensation from a high-efficiency furnace will flow out to a floor drain. If there is blockage in the line or the floor drain, it could be the culprit of a leak around your furnace. A seasonal tune-up from a furnace repair contractor should help prevent this problem from taking place. Unfortunately, lack of furnace maintenance might result in a clogged drain, resulting in wall, ceiling, or other damage to your home.
This issue should be found with seasonal heating tune-ups, but if your furnace is leaking water, the humidifier might be leaking inside the heating system. Water leaking into your furnace can cause serious damage to the internal elements so it's ideal to call your furnace service company as soon as possible if you think this could be your issue.
To make sure your heating equipment doesn't spring a leak and that it's ready to keep your home warm all winter long, call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning in Memphis today. Our fall promotion is going on until November 25th and you can save on a furnace tune-up or qualifying HVAC systems.

It's a boy! Wife and I are thrilled to announce the arrival of a brand new addition to our family: a beautiful, 200-pound father. He has blond hair, blue eyes, and has already had his wisdom teeth removed, which seemed to both baffle and delight the labor and delivery staff. It may sound cliche, but having a father really is as amazing as everyone says it is. Food tastes better. Lawnmowers sound better. Bad jokes seem funnier. Sure, fathers get very, very fussy if they haven't eaten in a few seconds, but I've found that all it takes to calm them down is a bowl of pork sausage and a nap. Another thing that makes fathers super upset is pooping their pants. I think the most exciting thing about having a father is watching them grow up. Well, actually, they don't grow up as much as they grow sideways (especially after a few weeks of quiche, macaroni and cheese, and lasagna dinners delivered by friends and family), but it's growth nonetheless. What's that? You don't want to hear about our new father–you want to hear about the baby I'm holding? Ah. Well, it's a girl, and she's perfect. Happy now?
New born babies are a gold mine of literary ideas! And happiness. Of course happiness. And rainbows. And poop.
One of the coolest birth announcements I've ever read!
excellent Will! You'll make a great new father!
Congratulations Will, sleepiness nights may be ahead for a short time, but oh what fun times lay ahead.
Thank you! Sounds like the fun times will be doing more lying down than I will, eh?
Congrats to you and wife!! Can't wait for posts about life with baby.
Congratulations! Now the fun begins.
Thank you! Does the fun involve consistent lawn maintenance? I hope so.
I was thinking more along the lines of poopie-pee supervision and a need for ear protection.
Our family's new father and I thank you.


AUTHOR'S NOTE: AU-ish as most of my fics tend to be. My only defence for such a non-seasonal and angsty fic is that my muse has been cranking out fluffy pieces lately that this must be her way to compensate. Oh, and she's a grinch and E. Scrooge rolled into one. Hope you like it and do comment if you do!
The dying rays of the sun come through the tiny gap between heavy curtains to splash half-heartedly across Serena's still bare skin, over Blair's rigid back – painting one and all in shadows and lights, reds and oranges. Serena thinks it is a painfully beautiful sight, hates the decidedly conclusive taste to the image (because she can read the farewell or something similar – or worse – in the tense set of Blair's shoulders, in the way she refuses to face Serena).
Serena wonders if she could fool herself into believing that this weak warmth cloaking her, enveloping her is in fact Blair. If she were to just close her eyes and imagine hard enough, if she were to just focus on that sweet scent that is Blair still lingering in the air badly enough, maybe, maybe this outline of a phantom body she sees in her mind's eye if not in reality can pass as Blair. She moves her hands up to trace curves that are not exactly there and feels - as expected – only empty air greeting her hopeful fingers. "Are you leaving?" Serena asks, dropping her hands limply by her sides and opening her eyes reluctantly to see what she has not wanted to see: Blair standing by the foot of the bed, detached as she smoothes away imaginary wrinkles from her clothes.
"You know what my answer will be," Blair replies with a hint of a warning, keeping her back to Serena and her shoulders tensing even more – if that were even possible. There is something like unease, maybe fear, more likely guilt in the way her fingers clench and unclench at the hem of her blouse.
Serena closes her eyes again, swallowing back disappointment. Her heart squeezes like it is about to break, like it is about to give way. But not yet, maybe a little more and it will finally break, she thinks.
"I'll see you next week?" Blair asks, her tone hovering awkwardly between commanding and imploring. Somehow, somehow her voice seems closer all of a sudden, a lot closer to Serena than it should ever be considering the circumstances. "The usual time?" Blair whispers, her soft exhalations skimming the tops of Serena's cheekbones, her fingers tracing Serena's jaw line so lightly that Serena cannot decide whether the sensation is simply a figment of her imagination or not.
"The usual place," Serena grits out by way of an answer as she pulls away quickly, curling into the pillow that still smells like the two of them. Her skin burns furiously where Blair has (maybe) touched her. She feels it like a physical blow when Blair pulls away and she tells herself to keep her eyes closed, to do her best to block any noise. She does not want nor does she need to see or hear Blair leave.

The author of 'Manliness' suggests the president's vulgar appeal may be the beginning of the end of the push for gender-neutrality.
Cambridge, Mass. -- A wise and nuanced playfulness is Harvey Mansfield's forte. He's just turned 86 and has been teaching at Harvard since he was 30, making him one of the longest-running shows in this clever little town. A professor of government, he's among the foremost experts on Tocqueville and Machiavelli. But since 2006, when he published a book called "Manliness," the public attention toward him has focused on his uninhibited and mischievous put-down of Western feminists. "I think I've got the best critique that exists of feminism, what its nature is, and what it wants," he says of that book, chuckling immodestly.

HARVEY CLAFLIN MANSFIELD, JR (born March 21, 1932) is an American political philosopher. He is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Government at Harvard University, where he has taught since 1962. He has held Guggenheim and NEH Fellowships and has been a Fellow at the National Humanities Center; he also received the National Humanities Medal in 2004 and delivered the Jefferson Lecture in 2007. He is a Carol G. Simon Senior Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. He is notable for his generally conservative stance on political issues in his writings.
Mansfield is the author and co-translator of studies of and/or by major political philosophers such as Aristotle, Edmund Burke, Niccolò Machiavelli, Alexis de Tocqueville, and Thomas Hobbes, of Constitutional government, and of Manliness (2006). In interviews Mansfield has acknowledged the work of Leo Strauss as the key modern influence on his own political philosophy.

The leader of an online sexual blackmail ring has been sentenced to 40 years in prison by a South Korean court. 24-year-old Cho Ju-bin was found guilty of running an online network that blackmailed at least 74 women, including 16 teenagers, into what authorities called "virtual enslavement." Over a ten month period, the women were forced to send increasingly degrading and sometimes violent sexual imagery of themselves. The case has sparked a national outcry over the prevalence of digital sex crimes in the country. Activist Lee Hyo-rin: "This ruling reminds me again how insufficient the sentences related to digital sex crimes had actually been before, rather than whether 40 years of imprisonment is higher or lower than expected." Yonhap reported that Cho "lured and threatened multiple victims in various ways to produce pornography" and that the Seoul Central District Court sentenced him for violating criminal and child protection laws. Millions of Koreans have signed petitions urging authorities to release Cho's identity and investigate not only the network's organizers, but also its participants. Members paid up to 13-hundred dollars to see the abusive videos and images. Following investigations into similar sexual crimes, police say more than 120 suspects have been arrested since late last year, and at least a dozen operators of online chat rooms, including Cho, have been detained. Cho's lawyer could not be reached for comment.The leader of an online sexual blackmail ring has been sentenced to 40 years in prison by a South Korean court. 24-year-old Cho Ju-bin was found guilty of running an online network that blackmailed at least 74 women, including 16 teenagers, into what authorities called "virtual enslavement."

An MBA degree opens a vast field of opportunities for a student. Many respected companies offer jobs mainly to the people who have this degree. Writing an MBA dissertation is required to obtain the degree. MBA research work is one of the most difficult, as it has many requirements. An MBA thesis is the combination of all your previously acquired skills used for writing a huge project.
Read the text below to get additional information on the MBA dissertation format.
You may require the certificate from the company.
An MBA project usually involves working for a company. That is why the company's certificate is necessary for a researcher. It will serve as proof that the research was really conducted on the basis of the company and that all numbers and data are real.
You will need the originality certificate.
This is proof of the authenticity of the research and an official document that is added to the text of the thesis together with the list of cited literature. It helps pass the plagiarism check.
The MBA format requires tables and charts.
This requirement is a must-have. You are supposed to collect the data and organize it in tables and charts. It is necessary for the future data analysis that leads towards the conclusion. Be very careful during your work with numbers! Even one mistake can influence the whole process of calculation.
You must give the organization's profile.
There is a special form that is added to the thesis. It is the profile of the company with which you have worked. Mind that not all MBA dissertations include the work with an organization; sometimes these fragments will not be necessary.
The thesis requires a synopsis.
A synopsis is a brief description of your work where you give basic information about your work. It should be no longer than three hundred words, and it must contain all the information that is important for the first review.
The format includes data analysis and interpretation.
When descriptive chapters are over, you have to analyze the data that you have gathered. It includes various calculations. Moreover, you have to interpret the data so that it will be clear to the commission.
After you make a conclusion, you should give your ideas or suggestions.
This is the culmination of your whole work. Here you will show your research skills and prove your ideas. You will have to offer your own proposals concerning the researched topic.

Bobby Sanabria is an American drummer and percussionist of Puerto Rican descent who specializes in jazz and Latin jazz. A 7X Grammy nominee as a leader, he is the leader of the Quarteto Aché, Sexteto Ibiano, Ascensión, and his Multiverse Big Band. Sanabria teaches in New York City at the Manhattan School of Music and The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. Six of Sanabria's albums have been nominated for a Grammy Award: Afro-Cuban Dream: Live & In Clave!!! (2000), 50 Years of Mambo – A Tribute To Damaso Prado (2003), Big Band Urban Folktales (2007) Kenya Revisited Live!!! (2009), Tito Puente Masterworks Live!!! (2011) and Multiverse – nominated for two Grammys (2012).
Sanabria was born in the South Bronx where he grew up in the Melrose Housing Projects. He is of Puerto Rican ancestry as both of his parents are from the island but met in the Bronx.
He attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston from 1975 to 1979 receiving his B.M and the Faculty Association Award for his work as an instrumentalist graduating in 1979. He received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1983 and was a featured performer on the Mambo Kings film soundtrack. He also appeared on The Bill Cosby Show with the Mario Bauzá Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra.
Sanabria has appeared over the years in many New York City public schools as well as all over the world teaching about and performing Latin jazz. He has written articles for Modern Drummer, DRUM!, Traps, Highlights In Percussion, and has written liner notes for many albums. He has composed music for the documentary films From Mambo To Hip Hop – A South Bronx Tale (2007) and Some Girls (2017). He currently teaches the Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra's at the Manhattan School of Music and The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. He has been featured in such publications as the New York Times, The New York Daily News, Modern Drummer, Rhythm, DRUM!, Jazz Times, and Downbeat Magazine.
He has performed and recorded three CD's (2 Grammy nominated) with the acknowledged creator of Afro-Cuban jazz – Mario Bauzá, as well as an incredible variety of artists including Dizzy Gillespie, Tito Puente, Mongo Santamaría (with whom he started his career), Chico Freeman, Paquito D'Rivera, Yomo Toro, Candido, The Mills Brothers, Ray Barretto, Chico O'Farrill, Francisco Aguabella, Henry Threadgill, Luis "Perico" Ortiz, Daniel Ponce, Larry Harlow, Daniel Santos, Celia Cruz, Adalberto Santiago, Xiomara Portuondo, Pedrito Martinez, Roswell Rudd, Patato, David Amram, the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra, the WDR Big Band, Michael Gibbs, Charles McPherson, Jon Faddis, Bob Mintzer, Phil Wilson, Randy Brecker, Charles Tolliver, M'BOOM, Michelle Shocked, and Marco Rizo. He has guest conducted and performed as a soloist with numerous orchestras.
Sanabria's first CD as a leader, NYC Aché, released in 1993 on the Flying Fish Label featured a series of percussion duets between he and his mentor Tito Puente, as well as a guest appearance by NEA Jazz Master Paquito D'Rivera on clarinet receiving critical acclaim and featured Sanabria not only on drumset but also vibes, congas, bongó, and percussion. In 2000 his Afro-Cuban Dream – Live & In Clave!!! CD with his own big band received worldwide critical acclaim for its forward thinking approach to the art of the big band and received a Grammy nomination. Quarteto Aché in 2003 was hailed a "classic" by Modern Drummer Magazine showcasing him in a small group context. 50 Years of Mambo – A Tribute to Perez Prado, another big band recording, received a Grammy nomination in 2004. Big Band Urban Folktales followed in 2007 again receiving a Grammy nomination and also becoming the first Latin jazz CD to chart at #1 on the Jazz Weekly National Chart. With the Manhattan School of Music Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra he has recorded two Grammy-nominated albums: Kenya Revisited Live!!! (2009) and Tito Puente Masterworks Live!!! (2011). In 2012 Multiverse, again with his big band featuring original music as well as compositions by Don Ellis and Frank Zappa, was nominated for two Grammy Awards: Best Latin Jazz Recording and Best Instrumental Arrangement – Afro-Cuban Jazz Suite for Ellington. He was featured in the BBC documentary West Side Stories – The Making Of a Classic (2017). His current CD, released in July of 2018 on the Jazzheads label, West Side Story Reimagined, is an ambitious Latin jazz treatment of the entire score of Leonard Bernstein's masterpiece, West Side Story interpreted by his 21 piece Multiverse Big Band in celebration of the Maestro's centennial (2018)and the shows recent 60th birthday (2017). The majority of the proceeds form the sale of the double CD set goes to the Jazz Foundation of America's Puerto Rican Hurricane relief Fund to aid the musicians on the island. Receiving worldwide critical acclaim and again the #1 spot on the JazzWeek charts Will Friedwald of the Wall St. Journal wrote in his review of the CD, "There's every reason to hope that Steven Spielberg's remake of 'West Side Story' will improve upon the 1961 film, but I doubt if we'll ever hear a more thrilling interpretation of that immortal score than that of the Bobby Sanabria Multiverse Big Band."
He has been producer, consultant and featured on air personality in the documentaries The Palladium: Where Mambo Was King (2003), From Mambo to Hip Hop – A South Bronx Tale (2006) where he also composed the musical score, Latin Music U.S.A. (2009), We Like It Like That – The Story of Latin Boogaloo (2016), the BBC documentary West Side Stories – The Making Of a Classic (2017).

He recently was awarded the 2018 LeJends of Jazz Lifetime Achievement Award for his work as a musician and educator in the field of Latin jazz by the Jazz Education Network. He is an endorser of TAMA Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Vic Firth Sticks, Remo Drumheads, and LP Percussion.
