By Cindy Tracy Superior fi refi ghters were the only responders on the scene of the Arnett Fire for approximately an hour on May 22. The blaze, which ultimately involved 100 acres, according to Superior Fire Operations Chief Todd Pryor, started at approximately 2:17 p.m. on that Sunday on the shooting range south of Superior. Superior Fire fought the fi re with seven personnel using two engines and a tender. Queen Valley Fire was not able to assist as they were battling a fi re near Hewitt Station Road west of Superior. The Arnett Fire caused the stoppage of traffi c on Highway 177 until approximately 5:30 p.m. Following this traffi c was delayed and going back and forth on the road towards Kearny with the aid of a pilot car. A Tonto National Forest fi re watch aircraft determined that an air attack on the blaze was called for, Pryor said. Two single engine slurry bombers were sent and started dropping the red slurry on the fi re. On the ground Superior and Tonto National Forest fi refi ghters set up a defense heading west to 177 to stop the spread of the fi re. “And we were able to stop it,” Pryor said. The scene was cleared between approximately 10 p.m. and midnight. Pryor said he believed fi refi ghters were still out there on Monday conducting mop-up operations. He said the cause of the fi re is still under investigation by Tonto National Forest.

By Cindy TracyIt has happened! There are LIGHTS

again on the fi eld at the Superior school district’s stadium. Through a number of grants and contributions and the work of Arizona Public Service Energy Services who have coordinated a plan for school energy improvements that included stadium lights as soon as possible, a ring of new, highly effi cient lights on poles was installed

approximately a week ago. It was maybe a bit touch and go as the long awaited return of lights might or might not have been in place by the goal of mid-May to accommodate graduation. Traditionally in Superior, graduation has been held on the fi eld at 7 p.m. But all the stadium lights were removed approximately one year ago following concerns about their safety after one of the light

poles fell. No one was hurt by the light pole falling, but a subsequent survey of all the poles and their age in general prompted the eventual decision to remove all of them. With no lights for graduation that year, the ceremony was moved to 6 p.m. so that there would still be daylight to see by. It had been thought the event could have been held in the gym but the decision had

been made then that the gym was not large enough. And the 6 p.m. scheduled start time for this coming Friday’s graduation is still the same, according to Superintendent/Principal Pete Guzman. He said on Monday that even though the lights are now in, many students already had their invitations fi nished and families had their plans made so the event will still be at 6 p.m.

Back to the Friday Night Lights ...During the Superior High School Sports Awards, High School Football Coach Ryan Palmer apologized for all of the games during the season that took place in high heat during the middle of the day and then expressed his thanks for all the staunch fans who, regardless of this, still came out to support their team. He was then very happy to announce, that very day, the new lights were being installed…the crowed hushed and ooh-ed at this. Coach Palmer excitedly said, “We’ve got our Friday Night Lights BACK!” to much applause from the crowd. Sure enough, the following day technicians could be seen installing the brand new, bright and shiny lights on the football fi eld, many children walked by and waved excitedly throughout the day. Director Billy Duarte explained, “We here at Superior Junior-Senior High School are extremely happy that there will be light here on Friday nights again and all questions about whether there will be lights have been answered. The administration and staff, as well as the students, thank everyone who contributed and made this project happen in such a timely manner considering the magnitude of such a project.” Mr. Duarte additionally explained, “The appropriate thank you’s will be issued in the appropriate times in the near future.” Yay! Let there be LIGHT! (Taylor Sheaffer Ritter photos)

By Cindy Tracy Superior Town Council has made the decision to hire two separate legal counsels as town attorney and to negotiate a rate for their services. The choice for the law fi rm of Dimalanta Clark, LLP and the Law Offi ce of Chad D. Niven was not unanimous. Council Member Hank Gutierrez did not vote for it. Prior to the vote the council heard presentations and interviewed both fi rms, as well as a third candidate for the position of town attorney. The other candidate was the law fi rm of Mariscal, Weeks, McIntyre & Friedlander, P.A.; representing this fi rm in the interview was Gary L. Birnbaum, attorney at law. Dimalanta Clark was represented by attorney Christopher B. Wencker and Niven represented himself as a sole practitioner. In other business, the council approved a resolution agreeing to accept grant funding from the Gila River Indian Community to purchase a brush fi re suppression truck. Another approved resolution requested that the reconstruction

(widening) of U.S. 60 in the Silver King and Superior Streets section be retained in the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) work plan for Fiscal Year 2013. Council also sanctioned an intergovernmental agreement with Pinal County for a grant for street signs, and a letter of support to keep the ADOT fueling station open. It was not an action item but, unoffi cial minutes of the meeting, provided by the town on Monday, refl ect an item of correspondence read out loud during the communications section of the council agenda. The minutes state that “Hing read a letter from the Federal Bureau of Investigation regarding the investigation of the fraudulent automated clearing house transactions against the town’s bank account. This is part of a larger and more organized fraud scheme against banks.” (The Superior Sun requested a copy of the document read by the mayor so that it could be accurately quoted in full but the town was not able to furnish it.)

By Ted LakeFrom the Arizona Silver Belt There is no doubt about it. The newly elected chairman of the San Carlos Apache Tribal Council wants the proposed big Resolution Copper Mine project East of Superior project stopped now and he is doing everything in his power to do it. Rambler appears to have taken a more aggressive stance against the new mine than previous Chairman Wendsler Nosie, whom he defeated in the November election.. It was on Jan. 28 when Tribal Chairman Terry Rambler and members of the tribal council fi rst met with newly elected Republican Congressman Paul Gosar at the Apache Gold Casino which is owned and operated by the San Carlos tribal government. Many issues were discussed including the tribal leadership telling the Congressman about their opposition to the Oak Flat Land Exchange due to its cultural, archaeological and environmental concerns . Then in February it was reported that members of the San Carlos Tribal Council directed Chairman Rambler to begin the process of having the Oak Flat area designated as a national historical, cultural and traditional site.. Rambler has set

New San Carlos Chairman aggressively campaigns to stop Resolution Project

up a group of individuals to continue working on the Oak Flat land exchange issue, however names of those involved were not released. Oak Flat consists of some 720 acres of Tonto National Forest lands located more than 35 miles westerly from San Carlos. In the meantime, San Carlos offi cials have driven various tribal elders from the Reservation East of Globe to the Tonto National Forest into the Oak Flat campground just outside of the town of Superior. From here, each was interviewed

Superior High School Annual

By Cindy Tracy Generations gathered together in the high school gym Sunday night to witness one of the most inspiring rituals of the graduation season. The occasion was the Superior High School baccalaureate program that May 22 night, dedicated to the graduating class. Elegantly decorated in black and orange Panther hues, the gym shimmered like an outdoor garden scene on a starry evening. The lights were low and in the darkened gym, a crowd of families, friends and community members of the Class of 2010-2011 congregated in the bleachers. Tiny lights on the fl oor provided much of the illumination for most of the evening. At other times the full gym lighting system was turned on. The fl oor lights shone through rows of orange crepe paper that outlined the podium area and the chairs where the seniors sat. Balloons and more lights and crepe paper adorned the paths where the seniors walked in their processional (“Slide Show”) and recessional (The Graduation Song “Moment for Life”) journeys to and from wherever they had to be during the ceremony. James Gonzales led the Pledge of Allegiance and the strains of the National Anthem fl oated over the gym. Mark Bracamonte gave the invocation. Marisa Hernandez welcomed everyone to the event. Ana Campos gave the poem, “For All Mothers.” Then all the seniors presented roses to mothers in the crowd. Following a slide show documenting in pictures the seniors’ early years, school times and their high school careers, Christopher Floyd gave the benediction. The music played for the recessional and everyone cheered and clapped .The crowd stood and watched those who would so soon be graduating walk away from the gym fl oor and onto the curtained stage from whence they had come.. But they immediately came right back and it was time to join their family and friends on the gym fl oor. In what was a taste of how it will be on graduation night, hugs and conversation took place. Former head football coach and teacher Earl Tucker was guest speaker for the baccalaureate. He told the seniors he knew they had worked hard in order to fi nd themselves in that place “right here!” He talked to them of the voice that spoke to them inside, the spirit that was within them. “That spirit that is within you is greater than any circumstance that you’ll ever come up against,” he said. He acknowledged his understanding of the challenges young people had to face in this day and age. “But I know that you guys have what’s needed to go out in this world, to stand on this stage.” He said he knew they were able to be thankful for knowing who they were and being able to say, “I am who I am. I WILL and because I will, you can’t change me or turn me around.” He covered in uplifting terms a variety of topics in his address having to do with the theme of the seniors’ future lives and their success. When the baccalaureate was over, another step had been

By Taylor Sheaffer Ritter Virtually the whole of the community emptied Wednesday evening into the Multipurpose Room of the Superior Junior-Senior High School to witness the awarding of the Superior High School Sports Awards. Athletics Director William ‘Billy’ Duarte opened the assembly, happily handing the mic over to the Men’s Football Coach Ryan Palmer to start off the evening. Coach Palmer began by graciously thanking his coaching staff for all their hard work with team. Coach Palmer was followed by lovely ladies of the Volleyball team with Coach Amy Melton starting off the awards for the Junior Varsity team; she was quickly followed by Coach Cheryl Lopez who spoke warmly about her players as they lined up for pictures. Billy Duarte returned to the microphone to recognize the incredible efforts made by the athletes of the Boys Basketball team and he was followed by Coach Palmer, who spoke of the spunk and excitement exuded by the ladies basketball team. Coach Palmer was followed by the heart-felt words of Coach Terry Villaverde as she spoke about the ladies she coach on the Spiritline. The excitement could be felt in the crowd as the evening drew closer and closer to the announcing of the Athletes of the Year. Following the Spiritline, Coach Duarte stood and excitedly discussed the many accomplishments of the Men’s Baseball team and was quickly followed by the enjoyable remarks of Coach Carmen “Mikee” Preciado about the wonders of coaching the Ladies Softball team; she explained her love for the team and her fellow coaches who helped her through a diffi cult season. Last, but certainly not least Coach Tommy Macias graciously introduced the awardees of the Superior Tennis Team before giving way to the awarding of both the Manny Ruiz Athletic

By Taylor Sheaffer Ritter OK. OK. What STEM actually stands for is Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, yet if you were able to visit the 2011 Superior Jr. and Sr. High STEM fair, the former adjectives might have fl ashed through your mind (the fi rst especially if you are British, imagine this followed up with a posh sounding “Well that is just jolly good”). Students from both the Junior and Senior High worked tirelessly to ready and then present their projects, each having some root in one of the four categories. Some of the students were a little embarrassed to display their awesomeness while others basked in the glory; either way, each project showed the incredible effort put into it and was a window as to how clever and keen each of these young minds actually are. Visiting the Water Rocket display, presented by Megan Mashow, Angela Campos, Eric Oatis and Cody Scholnick, was pretty intense, especially if you were around when the wind slightly blew the blasting rocket towards you and you along with everyone else ducked for cover. This groovy experiment demonstrated the propulsion abilities derived from mixing water and air pressure. Zach Allison, Oscar Gonzales and Justin Sanchez presented allcomers with another dandy experiment showcasing the varying densities of different liquids t hrough layering…honey, water, rubbing alcohol, dish soap and such…all combined in test tubes to produce a beautiful spectrum of color. Pretty sweet, though one hopes that some young child did not believe the candy-colored concoction edible, since this would not have been a sweet surprise. Ivie Lopez, Kaya Rodriguez, Adam Granillo and Brienna Everhart excitedly taught a quick lesson on Divisibility rules, Prime Factorization and the GCF (greatest common factor) and LCM (least common multiple). Needless to say, this was a reminder for all that learning math once and then never using it again makes you feel like a fool when you get schooled by a couple of junior high students. There was even an awesome (Super Mega Awesome) dress made of aluminum Coke cans. While, obviously, explaining just how cool each of these presentations was would take pages upon pages (because they were all that cool), let it be noted that each and every single presentation bestowed an ample grain of knowledge upon its beholder. Additionally the STEM program was achieved through the help of the GK-12 program, which is a collaboration between Resolution Copper Company, Superior Junior/Senior High School and Arizona State University, as a means to “[bring] teachers together with Arizona State University scientists, engineers, graduate students to enrich learning experiences for the K-12 community.” The 2011 Superior Jr and Sr High STEM Fair was presented by the following classes:Ms. Denogean’s Life Science Ms. Denogean’s Physical ScienceMs. Evenson’s ChemistryMs. Evenson’s PhysicsMr. Rua’s BiologyMs. Joshi’s Algebra I & IIMs. Joshi’s GeometryMrs. Denogean’s Ed ProfessionsMrs. Denogean’s Life SkillsMrs. Denogean’s Early Childhood EdThe FCCLA OrganizationMrs. Martinez’s Marketing IITitle I Math

by an independent reporter writing down their historical and religious memories of this area.. Since the announcement of the $4 billion Resolution Copper project a few years ago, the Apache leadership began claiming the site for the 7,000 feet deep underground mine is sacred and was the location of the original Apache “ Holy Lands.” Similar claims are also being made in the Apaches’ revitalized campaign now underway to have the University of Arizona remove some $200 million in telescopes which were built on Mount Graham near Safford, also on U.S. Forest Service lands. However, many residents of the nearby mining communities don’t believe such claims being made by the tribe’s leadership. It was on March 3 when San Carlos Tribal Chairman Terry Rambler made a visit to Washington , D.C., with other San Carlos leaders to meet with a number of U.S. government officials to

discuss a variety of tribal concerns including the proposed 2,400-acre land exchange at Oak Flat. We “emphatically explained the reasons for the tribe’s continued opposition to any legislation that would convey Oak Flat to Resolution Copper,” the chairman wrote in his column in the San Carlos Moccasin newspaper While at the nation’s capital, Rambler and his group also met with U.S. Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ) who has been the main sponsor of the various land exchange bills which have been introduced in the U.S. Senate since 2005, all being opposed by the San Carlos Apaches and a number of environmental groups which later joined in the tribe’s protests. However, none of these bills were able to come before the full Senate for a final vote. The delegation from San Carlos besides Chairman Rambler, included council members Simon Hooke, Jonathan Kitcheyan, along with Tanayia White who is the Executive Assistant to the Tribal Chairman. Others were Harding Burdette, Project Manager for the new San Carlos Hospital , Ronald Boni, Director of San Carlos Housing Authority, Alonzo Lomas, Finance Director for the San Carlos Tribe and two attorneys who represent the tribe’s legal affairs. Also, the San Carlos Tribal leadership was successful in arranging a special meeting on April 16 with officials from the U.S. Forest Service. There was no public announcement about this meeting, nor were residents of the nearby mining communities invited to give their views about designating nearby federal government owned lands as “Holy” or “Sacred Apache

Grounds.” Here is where the Apaches complained to the Forest Service they wanted to see improvement in federal policies allowing the designation of such Native American sites on U.S. government lands in national forests. Former Councilman Raleigh Thompson was quoted by the San Carlos Moccasin saying to the USDA’s Forest Service, “When are you going to leave our sacred sites alone? You won’t ever be able to understand why these things are sacred because you are not Apache.” Thompson was referring to Mount Graham and Oak Flat. The campaign to stop the 1,400-employee Resolution mine project continued on April 15 when Rambler along with Vice Chairman Dr. Bush appeared at a meeting of the Inter Tribal Council of Arizona in Phoenix. This group represents 20 of the Native American Tribes in Arizona. In speaking to the leaders of the other Indian Tribes, Rambler said he appreciated their past support in standing against any legislation that would transfer Oak Flat to Foreign Mining Companies. “I ask for your continued support. The integrity of our culture and our beliefs as Apache people,” he said. It was earlier this month on May 4 when Chairman of the San Carlos Apaches announced publicly to the people of San Carlos that their tribal council has passed another resolution re affirming its opposition to large scale mining proposed by Rio Tinto’s Resolution in the Oak Flat vicinity and the opposition to the land exchange with the U.S. Forest service which would allow this mining operation.

ObjectionsContinued from Page 1

By Cindy Tracy It is the season of student success all over the area. Colleges, secondary school, elementary schools and even preschools hold award ceremonies, graduations and in general celebrate the yearly rites of the young and sometimes the not-so-young learners and achievers among us who having achieved success are moving on to do it all over again. Cobre Valley Institute of Technology (CVIT) held its’ annual Recognition Ceremony at Gila Pueblo Campus in Globe on May 17. Recognized were 22 high school seniors, according to Dirl Cole, CVIT Program Coordinator. These students, who were referred to in the ceremony as “completers,” completed the CVIT & Arizona Department of Education Career and Technical Education Program, and Gila Community College’s Certified Nursing Assistant (CAN) program requirements. “Of the twenty-two, six students received Fire Service program completion certificates,” Cole summarized in a report released after the event, “while in CVIT’s Fire Service program these students completed all the required Gila Community College coursework in preparation for Arizona’s Firefighter Certification test later this month. Fourteen students received Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certificates from Gila Community College and program completion certificates from CVIT. He explained that while in CVIT’s CNA program these students completed all the required coursework for both CVIT and GCC. They are awaiting the results of their Arizona State CNA certification testing. “Two students received CVIT Electrical Installation and Maintenance Technologies Program completion certificates,” he said. This completed coursework can be used to meet some of

the requirements for GCC’s Electrical-Instrumentation Program.” While in high school, he said, these students completed not only their high school graduation requirements but, also, during their junior and senior years they attended CVIT classes for 12½ hours per week. “For their efforts, these students could have received as many as 22 college credits, at no cost to the students due to the partnerships CVIT has with Gila Community College and CVIT’s member school districts of Globe, Hayden/Winkelman, Miami, San Carlos and Superior. Dr. Stephen Cullen spoke to the attendees at the recognition ceremony. He shared that this coming fall GCC will support 10,000 square feet of training area for workforce training through the IGA with CVIT. “So if you know anyone who wants workforce training, he said, “We would be the partner with CVIT to provide that.” Then he spoke directly to the “completers” sitting in the front seats of the assembly room. The large CNA class, dressed in red medical garb, made up the largest component of this group. “Congratulations, completers,” he said to those receiving their certificates of completion. “You have made a decision in your young lives that will have a positive effect on you financially and perhaps will be the first step in fulfilling your dream of starting a career that enriches your life.” He said they knew a couple of things about the completers. “Six to be exact,” he said. “We know of you this evening that you are not afraid, that you have the courage as evidenced by the completion of these college programs.” He said the completers were not intimidated. “You went to college regardless of any peer pressure that you may have encountered,” he said. “You are focused and driven or you wouldn’t have completed the program.”

Completers …A number of Cobre Valley Institute of Technology students received awards for completing their Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) programs at the May 17 CVIT recognition award. (Cindy Tracy photo)

He said the completers had set up a rigorous college academic program for themselves and succeeded. “You have both the ‘IQ’ and the ‘I WILL’ to succeed in life, not only in this program but moving forward. You

have chosen to look up and not down.” To the completers, he said: “You have earned the respect of everyone in this room.” CNA awards were presented by Tara Barnes. Recipients were Rosary Anaya, Justin

Castaneda, Megan Cook, Raquel Gilliam, Nicole Hernandez, Mindy Lopez, Amanda Mitchell, Clarissa Arvizu, Laci Chase, Heather Dorame, Czar Gonzales, Natasha Hetrick, Tivi Mata and Jessie Osorio.

Fire Services Award recipients were Richard Archuleta, Jayro Phillips, Joshua Bryant and Mario Dorame. Cameron Ashby and Cody Belarde received Electrical Instrumentation Awards.

By Guy HarrisonMedia and Marketing SpecialistPINAL COUNTY, Ariz. – While tag and QR (quick response) readers may appear to be the latest gadgetry to hit the telecommunications world, more organizations and business are using this technology to better reach their customers. Count Central Arizona College, and in particular, its office of student recruitment, among the many organizations to ride this new wave of student interaction This was just part of an updated annual recruitment plan unveiled at the Pinal County Community College District Governing Board Meeting held on Tuesday, May 17, at CAC’s Signal Peak Campus. The plan includes four goals, the fourth of which was to develop a more efficient way of receiving prospective student data from traditional age students (18-22). Tag and QR readers allow their users to scan pixilated, nondescript images with the cameras on their Smartphones, instantly bringing the user to a specific webpage – in this

Tags, QR readers giving CAC an electronic leg up in recruitingcase a site where students can request more information from the college. “Our students don’t want e-mails anymore,” Luis Sanchez, CAC’s assistant director of recruitment, stated. “They would rather get information on their phones.” It goes without saying that as

a collegiate recruitment office it pays to keep up with the latest information-gathering trends. The use of tag and QR technology allows the recruitment office to meet the demands of its target demographic. In addition, the recruitment office has as one of its goals to assess

and evaluate its current recruitment practices in order to develop higher-quality and more effective recruitment practices. “We’ll be conducting surveys

Superior Sun, Superior, ArizonaPage 10 Wednesday, May 25, 2011

By Cindy Tracy “This is my school family. This IS my school family! This is my scho-oo-l FAMILY!”Those lyrics or approximately those lyrics formed the subtext for an upbeat celebration in honor of some of Superior’s youngest students. The event was actually the John F. Kennedy Preschool Celebration. Held in the evening of May 19 at

the multipurpose room in the junior-senior high, the fun and festive occasion marked the preschool children’s “graduation” from preschool. They are moving on in the next school year to the great big world of kindergarten. But that exciting prospect wasn’t discussed at the cheerful and well-rehearsed program the children and their adult leaders put on for

the audience that night, made up primarily of loving families and friends of the young graduates. It was instead a time for looking back on what everyone had learned this year and how much fun everyone seemed to have had doing that learning. Preschool teacher Kathy Zavala, aide Lydia Delgado and volunteer Carmen Zavala directed the very

well-behaved and talented youngsters through the various parts of the evening. The preschool “family” for the school year 2010-2011 includes the A.M. Class with Monique Baeza, Isaiah Diaz-Gonzalez, Abel Graham, Jackson Hair, Julian Magallanez, Andrew Mesa, Matthew Navarro, Jalyn Perez, Jared Toner, Anessa Wheeler and Omari Wheeler. Also

part of that 2010-2011 preschool family is the P.M. Class with Jayden Carillo, David Drennan, Jasmine Frias, Liana Hernandez, Justin Looper, Ava Martinez, Kayleigh Rogers, Amaya Sommer and Jaselle Williams. As in any graduation type ceremony, the preschool celebration started with the young people marching onstage to the strains of “Pomp and

Circumstance.” Everyone participated in the Pledge of Allegiance and the preschoolers sang “God Bless America.” Teacher Zavala welcomed the audience to the program. The children then performed in an enthusiastic rendition of “My School Family.” Zavala recognized preschool supporters and helpers in a series of special thank-you moments. The children performed a song about ants who go marching. Certificates were presented to the children for their successful completion of preschool. Special bags created by Lydia Delgado and containing a number of nifty items were given to each child. The youngsters performed “Take Me Out to the Ballgame!” Then there was an intermission as everyone waited for a special surprise. The young preschool graduates were asked to carefully walk to the audience to rejoin their families. While they complied with this request, the lights came on and a computer/projector was set up, the projector screen was pulled down and the lights dimmed for the surprise. This proved to be a slideshow retrospective of the John F. Kennedy Preschool Classes of 2010-2011 loaded with pictures of the children throughout the school year. The tune accompanying it, of course, was “My School Family!” The audience riveted to the screen as they watched and smiled at their children, family members and the community’s children in general, until the show finished, the lights came back up. Refreshments were available at that point and everyone enjoyed them until it was time to go home.

with local guidance counselors, our prospective students, and our own outreach staff to evaluate our performance,” Sanchez explained. By evaluating its current practices and developing streamlined ways of reaching target audiences, the office of recruitment hopes to increase its number of admitted students by five percent. The office’s annual plan also calls for an increase in its communication with prospective students, hoping for an increase in matriculation rate from prospective student to enrolled student. To achieve this, the office will, according to Sanchez, make individual visits to all of CAC’s feeder schools as well as maximize its use of e-mail, social networking, and text messaging. The goal is to increase the district-wide enrollment by 10 percent. The office of recruitment plans to create a more comprehensive online portal for prospective students. Specifically, the plan calls for the creation of a CAC prospective student webpage and tags or QR (quick response) readers that will allow students to enter their own data into our system for accuracy and faster response times. Sanchez envisions that this website will contain a virtual campus tour as well as electronic versions of all catalogs and brochures that will provide instant visuals of the college’s campuses and centers as well as access to prospective student materials. Through this webpage, Sanchez hopes that students will be able to schedule campus tours. Increasing CAC’s Pinal County high school capture rate by five percent is another target area for the recruitment office. Additionally, CAC’s Pinal County high school capture rate has seen a steady increase over the past five years, totaling 29.3 percent in Fall 2010 after seeing a capture rate of 14 percent in 2006.
