Les jeunes veulent-ils tout tout de suite ? Que vous soyez RH, recruteur, manager ou entrepreneur, je décrypte le sujet pour vous.Dans cette capsule RH de 5 minutes, je vous partage mes 3 apprentissages suite à mon échange passionnant avec Juliette Laborie, Directrice Générale de JobTeaser.

When I was in my twenties and early thirties, I thought I was deeply self-aware. I'd read the books, gone to therapy, and could explain all my patterns in perfect detail. But nothing was really changing. It wasn't until I learned what self-awareness actually means and why understanding your story isn't the same as understanding your mind that I finally started to experience change. In this episode, I'm teaching the first skill of the Confidence Compass: true self-awareness. You'll learn why intellectual insight doesn't create transformation and how to uncover the subconscious thoughts that are really driving your feelings and actions. I'll share examples from my own life and my clients, from dating anxiety to money blocks, to show how powerful this shift can be.

Today's guest is Sam Elsner. Sam is a former NCAA Division III national champion thrower turned motor learning writer and educator. He's the author of The Play Advantage and creator of the Substack CALIBRATE, where he explores how humans learn movement through play, perception, and environment design. Sam brings a rare blend of elite athletic experience and deep skill-acquisition insight to help coaches and athletes move beyond drills toward true adaptability and creativity in sport. As athletic performance is largely driven by weight-lifting. It digs into maximal strength and force-related outcomes in such excess that all other elements of athleticism are negated. Skill learning and high velocity movement are the wellspring of sporting success. As such, having a balanced understanding of the training equation is critical for the long-term interest of the athlete. On today's podcast, Sam and I dive into how athletes truly learn to move. Sam traces his journey from WIAC throws circles to Cal Dietz's weight room, why a rigid “triphasic for everyone” phase backfired with a soccer team, and how ecological dynamics and a constraints-led lens reshaped his coaching. Together we unpack the strength–skill interplay, 1×20 “slow-cook” gains versus block periodization, the value of autonomous, creative training application. We touch on youth development, culture, and team ecology, plus where pros are experimenting with these ideas.

Keep speed, power, and reactive work present year-round in some capacity. Avoid assuming what works for one context transfers straight across to another. 17:49 - Vertical integration instead of siloed periodization Train multiple physical qualities year-round with shifting emphasis rather than isolating one block at a time. This prevents athletes from losing speed while developing strength, or vice versa. Small doses across the year keep qualities alive and connected. 24:58 - Skill learning must reflect the chaos of sport Sport is unpredictable, not robotic. Training should reflect that uncertainty. Use varied environments, movement options, and constraints instead of perfect reps. Skill emerges from exploration, not memorization. 35:43 - 1x20 for strength that supports skill 1x20 builds strength while leaving room for sprinting, jumping, and skill work. The last few reps in a 1x20 set still hit high effort without excessive nervous system cost. Use stance and tempo variations to match individual structure. 43:15 - Autonomy inside the weight room Allow athletes to choose stance width, bar position,

In this episode of Breakaway Wealth, Jim Oliver sits down with Dr. Erin Wilson, a powerhouse in leadership development and the creator of the "NAP Framework" for strategic rest. Together, they unpack relationship intelligence—the "million-dollar skill" that separates effective leaders from forgettable ones—and why rest is not a reward, but a strategy. Dr. Wilson shares how leaders can use relationship intelligence to connect, communicate, and collaborate at a higher level by understanding what truly motivates people. She also discusses her framework for strategic rest, how to use it to unlock creativity and performance, and why most of us get motivation wrong. What You'll Learn: Rest is a performance tool. The NAP Framework turns rest into a scheduled advantage that improves clarity, creativity, and leadership capacity. RI vs. EI: Emotional intelligence is internal awareness. Relationship intelligence operationalizes it so you actually get results with people. SDI in practice: People are primarily motivated by People, Process, or Performance (usually a blend). Speak to their driver and watch resistance drop. Common leadership mistakes: Assuming others are motivated like you. Confusing silence with agreement. Forcing everyone to play by your rulebook. Manager playbook: Hire experts → clear roadblocks → tailor comms → measure results. Action Steps Map motives: List your top 5 direct reports; tag their likely primary driver (People / Process / Performance). Schedule rest as strategy: Book two 30-minute regeneration blocks (think sauna, walk, prayer, meditation). Protect them. Adopt the NAP Framework: Nurture, Assess, Prioritize rest as a leadership advantage—not an afterthought.

In a world that tells our girls to "trust their feelings" above all else, how can we teach them to discern truth from deception? Join hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose for a rich, Spirit-led conversation on growing discernment—the ability to recognize God's truth, resist deception, and make wise decisions rooted in faith.  Rachael and Natalie explore the difference between simply following our instincts and tuning our hearts to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from both Scripture and real-life parenting moments, they unpack how discernment is more than a gut feeling—it's a trained skill that develops over time through prayer, Scripture study, and a deep relationship with Christ.  You'll also hear from Patti Garibay, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus, as she shares a powerful Raising Godly Girls Minute, reminding parents to equip their daughters to spot Satan's subtle lies before they strike. Together, the hosts offer practical tools to help parents nurture girls who are both aware and anchored—unafraid of the world's deception because they are grounded in the Word.  By the end of this episode, you'll be encouraged to create intentional rhythms of prayer and conversation at home that help your daughter discern what's true, what's eternal, and what's simply noise. When she learns to slow down, listen, and seek God's wisdom first, she'll become a young woman confident in her calling and courageous in her convictions.  Three Key Points to Remember  Identity forms discernment. A girl who knows who and Whose she is becomes less vulnerable to the world's deception.  Discernment takes practice. Like a muscle, it grows stronger through consistency, clarity, and Scripture-guided reflection.  Prayer anchors discernment. Prayer is not passive—it's a weapon. Teach your girl to pray for wisdom and spiritual alertness daily.    Scripture References in This Episode  1 Corinthians 16:13 – "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong."  Philippians 1:9–11 – "That your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment…"  Ephesians 6:10–18 – The armor of God and the call to pray in the Spirit at all times.  Psalm 119:66 – "Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments."  2 Corinthians 11:14 – "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light."  Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – Parents are called to teach God's commands diligently to their children.  For more from Natalie Ambrose, visit natalieatwell.com.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

This Day in Legal History: Massachusetts Institutes Death Penalty for HeresyOn November 4, 1646, the Massachusetts General Court enacted a law that imposed the death penalty for heresy, marking one of the most extreme expressions of religious intolerance in early American colonial history. The law required all members of the colony to affirm the Bible as the true and authoritative Word of God. Failure to do so was not merely frowned upon—it was made a capital offense. This legislation reflected the theocratic underpinnings of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, which had been established by Puritans seeking religious freedom for themselves but not necessarily for others.The Puritan leadership equated dissent with disorder, and heresy with treason against divine authority. The law was aimed particularly at groups such as Quakers, Baptists, and others who challenged orthodox Puritan theology. While it is unclear whether anyone was actually executed under this specific statute, it laid the foundation for later persecution, including the execution of Mary Dyer, a Quaker, in 1660. The law exemplifies how early colonial governments wielded both civil and religious authority in tandem.It also foreshadows the centuries-long struggle in American legal and cultural history to define the boundaries between church and state. Though the U.S. Constitution would later enshrine religious freedom in the First Amendment, this 1646 law demonstrates how precarious that freedom was in earlier periods. The harshness of the law also underscores the broader context of 17th-century Europe and its colonies, where religious uniformity was often enforced through state power. Massachusetts would gradually shift away from such punishments, but not without considerable resistance.Sam Bankman-Fried's legal team will argue before the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that his conviction for defrauding FTX customers should be overturned. The 33-year-old former crypto executive is currently serving a 25-year sentence after being found guilty in 2023 of stealing $8 billion from FTX users. His lawyers claim the trial judge unfairly excluded key evidence—specifically, information supporting Bankman-Fried's belief that FTX had sufficient assets to cover customer withdrawals. Prosecutors counter that the evidence against him, including internal records and testimony from former associates, was overwhelming.Bankman-Fried was once considered a leading figure in the crypto space, known for his high-profile donations and media presence before his downfall. During the trial, former executives at FTX and Alameda Research testified that he instructed them to misuse customer funds to cover hedge fund losses. He was convicted of two fraud counts and five conspiracy charges. Judge Lewis Kaplan, who sentenced him in March 2024, said Bankman-Fried knowingly acted criminally but underestimated the risk of detection. There are also unconfirmed reports that some in his circle are lobbying Donald Trump for a pardon, though Trump has not commented. Bankman-Fried is currently incarcerated at a low-security facility in California and is expected to be released in 2044.Sam Bankman-Fried's lawyers to argue for new fraud trial for FTX founder | ReutersGetty Images has largely lost its high-profile UK lawsuit against Stability AI, the company behind the image-generating tool Stable Diffusion. Getty had accused Stability AI of copyright infringement, claiming the AI system was trained on millions of its images without permission. However, Getty dropped the core part of the case mid-trial due to insufficient evidence about where and how the AI was trained, leaving that central legal question unresolved. The remaining claims focused on trademark infringement and secondary copyright violations.The High Court ruled that Getty partially succeeded on the trademark issue, noting Stable Diffusion sometimes generated images that included Getty's watermark. But the judge emphasized that this finding was historically narrow and of limited scope. Getty's broader copyright claim was dismissed, with the court finding that Stable Diffusion does not store or directly reproduce copyrighted works. Legal experts called the ruling disappointing for copyright holders and warned it exposed gaps in UK intellectual property protections regarding AI.Both companies claimed aspects of victory: Getty pointed to the trademark ruling and the recognition that AI models can be subject to IP laws, while Stability AI emphasized that the decision effectively cleared the core copyright concerns. Getty warned the decision highlights the difficulty even well-funded companies face in protecting creative works and urged governments to strengthen transparency rules around AI training data. Legal analysts say the ruling leaves a major legal question unresolved—whether training AI on copyrighted content without consent constitutes infringement under UK law.Getty Images largely loses landmark UK lawsuit over AI image generator | ReutersPennsylvania lawmakers are advancing a regulatory and fee-based proposal targeting “skill games”—arcade-style gambling machines—without first resolving the legal and oversight framework surrounding them. Senate Bill 1079, introduced by Senators Gene Yaw and Anthony Williams, proposes a $500 monthly fee per machine, capped at 50,000 terminals, potentially raising $300 million annually. However, I argue that this revenue-driven approach puts fiscal goals ahead of sound regulation. The bill includes some regulatory provisions like machine limits, ID checks, and a centralized monitoring system, but these appear to have been crafted after the fee structure, not as foundational policy.Skill games have operated in a legal gray area since a 2023 court ruling found they don't meet the state's definition of gambling devices. That ambiguity has persisted, leaving the machines largely unregulated but widespread. Instead of clarifying the legal status of these machines and building a regulatory framework first, lawmakers now seem focused on monetizing them quickly—potentially to preempt a stricter tax plan proposed by Governor Shapiro. The bill notably keeps enforcement under the Department of Revenue rather than the more experienced Gaming Control Board, raising questions about effective oversight.This structure may incentivize the rapid deployment of machines to meet revenue goals, risking poor compliance and ineffective safeguards. In sum, I go on to say the proposal uses regulation to justify revenue collection, rather than using revenue to support a robust regulatory system. Without a clear legal definition, licensing process, and proper enforcement authority, the current plan prioritizes money over governance.Pennsylvania Skill Game Fee Regulations Have Questionable Timing This is a public episode.

Sometimes behavior looks like defiance—but what if it's actually a missing skill? In this episode, Audra walks you through a simple visual tool to help determine whether a student's challenging behavior is due to a skill deficit (“can't”) or a motivation issue (“won't”). Using her quadrant graphic, she explains the four learner profiles (Engaged, Frustrated, Avoidant, Resistant) and gives practical strategies for supporting each one.Whether you're a teacher, para, or BCBA, this is a must-listen for decoding behavior and supporting students in meaningful ways.

As companies race to adapt to the rapid AI takeover, many are discovering that their biggest challenge isn't technological change, but knowing what their people can actually do. For CHROs, this means gaining real visibility into workforce skills, so they can move beyond job titles and legacy systems to make faster, smarter talent decisions. In this episode, Mikael Wornoo, Co-Founder and President of TechWolf, joins us to explore how AI and data are reshaping the future of HR through the rise of the skill-based organization—a model that looks beyond job titles to map, measure, and mobilize employee skills at scale. We unpack how organizations can build clean, standardized data layers to power smarter workforce decisions, enable internal mobility through AI-driven talent marketplaces, and forecast future skill needs amid accelerating automation. The conversation also dives into the limits of AI in capturing "invisible skills" like empathy and collaboration, the leadership mindset needed to balance human judgment with machine intelligence, and what the future of work and education might look like in an age of human–AI collaboration. A must-listen for CHROs who want to evolve from HR management to strategic workforce design and lead their organizations confidently into the AI era. ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

My summary of "How to Win Friends & Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.I went from dreading speaking in public to an eager excitement about the opportunity to speak in front of others.  I owe a great deal of that to reading "How To Win Friends & Influence People" by Dale Carnegie for the first time at age 16.  My father enrolled me in a 12-week "Public Speaking and Human Effectiveness" class in Bridgewater, NJ in 1988 (can you guess my age?).  Reading the book and engaging in the class - with a bunch of older adults much more scared than I was -  was life-changing for me.  Afterwards, I never had a problem getting a job, making a presentation, and interacting with people in social situations.  I gained so much favor with others just by applying the principles I learned in this book.  In this episode, I summarize the key points of the book - sharing my personal experiences along the way.This video is ideal for the creative entrepreneur who is looking to add the skill of speaking in public onto their talent stack.To watch LIVESTREAMS and videos, make sure you're subscribed to my YouTube Channel.

Brendan Graham Dempsey is a metatheory researcher at the Institute of Applied Metatheory and host of the Metamodern Meaning podcast. His work bridges evolutionary theory, developmental psychology, and worldview studies, bringing empirical rigour to questions about how human consciousness and culture evolve. His latest book, Psyche and Symbolic Learning, is the second in a planned ten-volume series exploring these themes through the lens of hierarchical complexity and neo-Piagetian developmental frameworks. You can find Brendan's work at: Metamodern Meaning podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@BrendanGrahamDempsey Brendan's Substack: https://brendangrahamdempsey.substack.com/ Brendan's website: https://www.brendangrahamdempsey.com/ Our previous chats: Philosophy Wisdom and MetamodernismCritiquing MetamodernismIn this conversation, Brendan introduces me to the ambitious world of metatheory – an attempt to create a unified, coherent understanding of all human knowledge by bridging disciplines from neuroscience to sociology to the humanities. We explore his new role researching worldviews empirically at the Institute of Applied Metatheory, where he's working to bring scientific rigour to questions that have long been speculative: Can we measure the complexity of worldviews? Do cultures develop through predictable stages? How complex is the Bible compared to Homer, or a text message to your mam? We dive deep into hierarchical complexity, a psychological framework that quantifies the sophistication of thinking across domains and time periods. Brendan shares fascinating research comparing the cognitive complexity of ancient religious texts, from early biblical narratives to the Epic of Gilgamesh, revealing how literacy transforms meaning-making structures. We discuss the difference between metatheory and interdisciplinary work, why spiral dynamics isn't quite a metatheory, and how this research programme aims to give metamodernism and integral theory the empirical grounding they've long needed. This is a conversation for those curious about the big questions: How does all human knowledge fit together? Can we study worldviews scientifically? And what does it mean to truly understand complexity? ⏳ Timestamps 00:00 James's Intro 01:30 Brendan's new role at the Institute of Applied Metatheory 03:24 What is metatheory?

Dr. Marc Brackett is a professor at Yale University, the founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, and author. Why is it so hard to actually feel our emotions? In a world that tells us to “be more vulnerable,” many of us don't even know what that really means. Are we being unregulated when we express emotion, or are we finally being human? How can we reconnect with what we feel so we can actually understand ourselves better? Expect to learn why only 1 in 5 adults can name more than three emotions they feel regularly, what emotional intelligence actually is, why we were taught such few emotional skills, how we can tell the difference between real regulation and repressed emotion, if it is possible to be too self-aware, how you can learn to reframe uncomfortable emotions—like anxiety or envy—into signals instead of shame and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://chriswillx.com/deals Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period from Shopify at https://shopify.com/modernwisdom Get a 15% discount & free shipping on Manscaped's shavers at https://manscaped.com/modernwisdom (use code MODERNWISDOM15) Get the brand new Whoop 5.0 and your first month for free at https://join.whoop.com/modernwisdom Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: https://chriswillx.com/books Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59 #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp - Get In Touch: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast Email: https://chriswillx.com/contact - Learn more about your ad choices.

Is the MSR Access 1 really a 4-season tent worthy of your late-season hunts? In this in-depth field review, I take the Access 1 into real winter conditions to see how it performs under snow, wind, and solo backcountry use. From packability and setup to structural stability and breathability, this review breaks down what works—and what doesn't—for hunters who demand reliable gear in unforgiving terrain. Along the way, I cover the full spec sheet (weight, materials, cost), test it in true mountain conditions, and offer insight on whether this tent belongs in your winter hunting kit. Plus, I announce two gear giveaways—the Swarovski ATX 85mm and Sig Sauer Zulu 10 15x binos—so stick around for details on how to enter.

Are you using “attachment parenting” — or accidentally doing permissive parenting?In this eye-opening conversation, Greg & Rachel Denning break down what true attachment parenting is (and isn't). They share the skills, mindsets, and tools that helped them eliminate tantrums for 16 years and prevent teen rebellion—without yelling, shaming, or rigid control.You'll learn why parenting is a specific, learnable skill, how to build secure attachment from baby to teen, and where popular advice (cry-it-out, forced “holding time,” over-scheduling, letting kids lead everything) quietly damages trust. You'll also get a clear blueprint for connection with boundaries so kids feel safe, seen, and guided—and you feel calm, confident, and effective.Bottom line: Attachment is earned, not forced. Respect your child's free will, meet real needs (sleep, food, attention), co-regulate big emotions, and set firm, sensible boundaries. That's the evergreen approach that works in every generation.Key Takeaways✅ Parenting is a skill—unrelated to how good you are at business, sports, or leadership.✅ Attachment ≠ permissive. It's connection + boundaries and kind + firm.✅ Attachment is earned, not forced. No cry-it-out or “holding until defeat.”✅ Respect free will while providing age-appropriate structure and safety.✅ Co-regulation first (your calm is contagious), then teach self-regulation.✅ Meet basics (sleep, nutrition, attention) before behavior battles.✅ Measure success by long-term trust and adult outcomes—not short-term compliance.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Attachment Parenting00:43 Clarifying Misunderstandings in Parenting02:04 The Importance of Parenting Skills03:09 Defining Success in Parenting04:39 Understanding Attachment Parenting05:23 The Dangers of Misapplied Parenting Techniques06:56 The Impact of Adoption on Attachment08:25 The Consequences of Control in Parenting11:28 The Role of Freedom in Child Development13:48 The Misconception of Holding Time16:10 The Impact of Sleep Training on Children17:59 Respecting Free Will in Parenting20:39 The Concept of Holding Time24:22 Understanding Boundaries and Safety28:24 Preparing Children for Adulthood31:24 The Lifelong Mentor-Mentee Relationship33:01 Building a Legacy of Good ParentingMemorable Quotes

You know that moment in an audition when your scene partner says their line… and you feel pressure to do something? You nod. You blink. You shift your face. You give a tiny “actor reaction” — because silence feels dangerous. Here's a little secret: sometimes, the best reaction… is no reaction at all. Today, we're going to uncover one of the most overlooked audition skills — the ability to listen without performing your listening.This is the subtle art that separates actors who look authentic from actors who look like they're trying to look authentic. Let's talk about it.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I got to sit down with my sweet friend Rachel Awtrey to talk about what it really means to love your life—even when you don't like it all the time. We went deep into the hard stuff: grief, spiritual warfare, motherhood, friendship, and how to CHOOSE joy as a daily practice. Rachel opens up about the loss of her father, writing her book through a miscarriage, and building joy as a skill, not just a feeling. We also chatted about the lies we believe about "balance," how to find friends in a new season, and why being present is one of the best gifts you can give yourself. This episode is for the girl who's tired, overwhelmed, and maybe wondering if this is all life has to offer. Joy is available—and worth fighting for.

When we truly listen, every conversation changes — including the one with ourselves.Listening isn't about waiting for your turn to speak — it's about being present enough to truly hear. In a world full of noise, slowing down to listen can feel like a radical act. Yet it's in those moments of stillness and attention that real understanding begins.In this special Ask Matt Anything episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, we explore what it means to “listen up” — to engage with intention, empathy, and curiosity. Along the way, listener questions spark insights on how to slow down fast conversations, apply communication tools in real life, and navigate the nuances of culture and connection. Because better communication doesn't start with what we say — it starts with what we hear.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Ep.17 Think Fast: You Asked, We AnsweredEp.114 Communication Means Paying Attention: The Four Pillars of Active ListeningAsk Matt Anything (AMA) 1: Trust, Paraphrasing, and Nonverbal Cues   Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:42) - The Three Ps That Block Good Listening (03:39) - Ace Your Listening: Pace, Space, and Grace (05:59) - Listening Beyond Words: Nonverbal Cues That Matter (06:37) - Listening Through Paraphrasing (08:13) - Practicing Better Listening (09:30) - Choosing the Right Structure for Your Audience (12:55) - Applying Communication Skills Effectively (16:02) - Slowing Down Conversations (20:32) - Practicing and Getting Feedback (23:02) - What's Next for Think Fast Talk Smart (24:54) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I dive into a rare first-edition copy of The Power of Awareness by Neville Goddard, and after reading it, I realized it's one of the most important books I've ever owned! This isn't just about mindset or positive thinking. It's about how REAL awareness itself can shape your results, your relationships, and even your sleep. In this episode, I break down what Neville taught about imagination and creation. The thoughts you hold and the states you live in become the world around you. I share the exact nightly exercise I've been using from this book to fall asleep faster, solve problems that used to keep me awake, and align my actions with the outcomes I actually want. Key Highlights: The single practice from Neville's book that changed the way I approach business and life. How awareness and visualization work together to create real, measurable results. Why athletes use visualization for success, and how entrepreneurs can apply the same principle in business. How Neville combined self-help with spirituality to make transformation both practical and powerful. When you truly understand awareness, success stops feeling like a grind and starts becoming a reflection of who you already are. Every major breakthrough begins with the ability to see yourself as the person who has already achieved it. This book taught me that what you imagine before you sleep is what you eventually wake up to. If you want to transform your business, your habits, or your peace of mind, this episode will show you where that transformation really begins.
