Welcome message
Dragi putnici,
Dear passengers,
AT A GLANCE, OUR TASK IS to transport people and goods to different destinations around the world every day. Howe- ver, we at Air Serbia believe that we do so much more than that. We build bridges that connect friends, family members and business associates, and which create new friends. We bring different cultures closer together, linking countries and connecting economies through our network. And in doing this we strive to make the world a better place. We want to leave our mark, but to reduce our carbon footprint. Sustainability, the protection of natural reso-
NA PRVI POGLED NAŠA ULOGA JE da svakodnevno pre- vozimo ljude i transportujemo robu na različite destinacije. Međutim, mi u Er Srbiji verujemo da radimo mnogo više od toga. Mi gradimo mostove koji spajaju prijatelje, članove porodica i poslovne saradnike kojima se stvaraju nova pri- jateljstva. Približavamo različite kulture, povezujemo drža- ve i ekonomije kroz našu mrežu. Čineći sve to, trudimo se da svet učinimo boljim mestom. Želimo da ostavimo trag, ali da smanjimo karbonski otisak.
Održivost, zaštita prirodnih resursa, briga o ši- roj društvenoj zajednici, kao i bezbednost i do- brobit naših putnika i zaposlenih utkani su u sva- ki segment poslovanja Er Srbije . Fokusirani smo na redukciju emisije gasova koji stvaraju efekat staklene bašte i na poboljšanje uticaja na život- nu sredinu. To postižemo unapređivanjem opera- cija, uvođenjem inicijativa za recikliranje, angažo- vanjem naših zaposlenih, radom sa institucijama Vlade Srbije, optimizacijom pilotskih procedu- ra, promenama u zemaljskim pripremama za let, usmeravanjem procedura održavanja, kao i sma- njenjem težine aviona i svega što ulazi u avion. Ukoliko ste zainteresovani, o tome postoji posebna stranica na našem sajtu. Tokom proteklih 12 mese- ci uspeli smo da emisiju ugljen-dioksida smanjimo za gotovo 3.000 tona. Pratimo i merimo postignu- te rezultate i uvek se trudimo da učinimo više zato što i najsitnija poboljšanja prave razliku. Želim da naglasim – zajedno smo jači; ostva- rujemo bolje rezultate kada radimo zajedno. Kada svako pruža svoj doprinos, postižu se najbolji rezul- tati. Možda ste primetili da je magazin sada u sma- njenom formatu i na izmenjenoj vrsti papira. Ništa revolucionarno, ali ipak ćemo zahvaljujući toj ma- loj promeni doprineti smanjenju emisije ugljen-di- oksida za 14 tona na godišnjem nivou. Pozivam i vas da svakodnevno činite male korake da bismo na- šu kuću sačuvali za buduće generacije. Kad god imate priliku, koristite stepenice umesto lifta i bi- cikl umesto automobila; ne ostavljajte vodu da te- če dok perete zube; gasite svetlo kada niste u pro- storiji; reciklirajte, jer svaka tona recikliranog papira spasava 17 stabala. Budimo odgovorni jer zajedno možemo sve! Jedna od destinacija na kojima možete zaista da uživate u prirodi je Oslo, naša najnovija destina- cija u Skandinaviji. U magazinu možete da se upo-
urces and care for the broader community, as well as the safety and well-being of our passengers and employees, are firmly embedded in the DNA of Air Serbia’s operations. We are focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving our en- vironmental impact. And we deliver on this through improvements to our operations, through the intro- ducing of recycling initiatives, engaging our em- ployees, cooperating with government institutions, optimising pilot procedures, modifying ground pre- parations for flights, streaming maintenance proce- dures and reducing the weight of aircraft and everyt- hing we place aboard aircraft. If you are interested, we have a dedicated section on our official websi- te. We have managed to reduce our carbon-dioxi- de emissions by almost three thousand tonnes over last 12 months. We monitor and measure the results achieved, and we always strive to do more, because even the slightest improvements make a difference. I would like to emphasise that we are stronger together; that we deliver more when we work toget- her. When everyone contributes, the best results are achieved. You may have noticed that this magazine is now smaller, with a different type of paper. That’s nothing revolutionary, but we are helping to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions by 14 tonnes annually wi- th this small change. I invite you to take small steps every day, so that we can preserve our home for fu- ture generations. Whenever you have the opportu- nity, use stairs instead of lifts, ride a bicycle instead of driving a car; don‘t leave water running while you brush your teeth; turn the lights off when you leave a room; recycle, because every tonne of recycled pa- per saves 17 trees. Be responsible, because we can do everything together! One destination where you can truly appreciate nature is Oslo, our latest destination in Scandinavia.
Duncan Naysmith CEO Air Serbia
Želimo da ostavimo trag, ali da smanjimo karbonski otisak We want to leave our mark, but to reduce our carbon footprint
You will see the natural wonders and phenomena of Norway later in this magazine – glaciers, waterfalls, fjords... I belie- ve that the awesome and mighty, yet silent and calm, power and beauty of nature will again remind us of how important it is to protect it! Enjoy your flight and have a good trip.
znate sa prirodnim lepotama i fenomenima Norveške – gle- čerima, slapovima, fjordovima... Verujem da će nas moćne i uzvišene, a ipak tihe i spokojne snaga i lepota prirode još jednom podsetiti na to koliko je važno da ih čuvamo! Uživaj- te u letu i srećan put.

I love planes because of everything! I know I’m going to be able to rest, I know I’m unavailable for calls and I know I’m going to see something different. I often sleep if I’m going to a faraway destination, or I enjoy looking through the window Avione volim baš zbog svega! Znam da ću se odmoriti, znam da sam nedostupna i znam da ću videti nešto drugačije. Često i spavam ako idem na dalju destinaciju ili uživam gledajući kroz prozor

NASLEĐE HERITAGE 1928.
Na krilima poteza 29-2 Prvi avioni Aeroputa stigli su na Vazdušno pristanište Beo- grad početkom februara 1928. godine. Uprava Aeroputa je od francuske kompanije kupila četiri aviona dvokrilca tipa po - tez 29/2 . Bio je to više nego solidan putnički avion za to vre- me, sa dva člana posade i sedištima za još pet putnika. Fran- cuski jednomotorni putnički dvokrilac drvene konstrukcije proizvodila je firma Aeroplani Anri Potez dvadesetih godi- na 20. veka. Prototip je poleteo početkom 1927. godine, a pr- vi primerci isporučeni su korisnicima 1928. Proizvodnja ovog aviona trajala je do 1931. godine. U Aeroputu je ovaj avion imao oznaku potez 29-2 i leteo je do početka 1937. Njime je u to vreme otvorena prva domaća linija vazdušnog saobraćaja između Beograda i Zagreba.
ON THE WINGS OF POTEZ 292 Aeroput’s first planes arrived at the Belgrade Airport in early February 1928. Aeroput’s management bought four “Potez 29/2” type biplanes from a French company. It was a more than capable passenger plane for the period, with two crew members and seating for another five passengers. This French single-engine passenger biplane with a wooden structure was produced by company Avions Henri Potez in the 1920s. The prototype was launched in early 1927, with the first finished products delivered to customers in 1928. Production of this aircraft continued until 1931. At Aeroput this plane carried the mark Potez 29-2 and flew until the beginning of 1937. It established the first domestic air transport route between Belgrade and Zagreb at that time.

Zvezde su bliže sa vrha Pariza / The stars are closer from the top of Paris Svake godine su u Parizu tri noći po- četkom avgusta posvećene gledanju zvezda, i to uglavnom padalica, po- što ih u tom periodu ima mnogo. Oni- ma koji će tada biti u Parizu savetuje- mo da se popnu na toranj Monparnas , gde će se za tu priliku organizovati ra- zličite aktivnosti. Zaista, tamo ćete ne samo uživati u pogledu nego i sazna- ti više o onome što se događa na pari- skom nebu.
Gledajte nebo sa vrha najvišeg nebodera u Parizu Observe the night sky from the top of the highest skyscraper in Paris
to head up to the Montparnasse Tower Observa- tion Deck, where various activities will be organ- ised to mark this occasion. On the agenda you will find meetings and other gatherings with pro- fessionals to help you learn more about what is actually going on in the sky. And, of course, from the top of the highest sky- scraper in Paris, on its observation deck located on the 56 th floor, you’ll be able to observe the sky like never before. You’ll be so close to the stars that you might want to make a wish!
Naravno, sa najvišeg nebodera u Parizu, sa te- rase na vrhu 56. sprata, moći ćete da gleda- te nebo kao nikad do tada. Tako ćete biti najbli- ži mestu sa kojeg možete da zamislite želju kad vidite zvezdu padalicu. France dedicates three nights at the beginning of each August to watching the stars in the night sky, and mostly the shooting stars that appear in abundance during this period. We advise an- yone who finds themselves in Paris at that time

ATINA ATHENS Veliko atinsko šetalište
AMSTERDAM Noćenje na brodu starom 70 godina
Gradske vlasti Atine odobrile su proje- kat Great Walk , što znači da će glavni grad Grčke dobiti veliko šetalište. Reč je o pe- šačkoj stazi dužine više od četiri kilometra, kreirane tako da promoviše istorijski cen- tar grada i omogući socijalno distanciranje za pešake. Tako će područja Plake i pozna- tog trgovačkog trougla, kao i ulice Atinas, Ermu, Herodu Atiku i Mitropoleos u okviru projekta biti pretvorene u pešačke zone. Takođe, u izradi je i nova biciklistička staza, koja će pratiti pešačku. ATHENS GREAT WALK The Athens city authorities have approved its “Great Walk” project, which will see the capital of Greece gain a large promenade. This pedestrian walkway is longer than fo- ur kilometres and is being created in such a way as to promote the historical centre of the city and enable social distancing for pe- destrians. Thus, the neighbourhood of Pla- ka and the famous shopping triangle, as well as the streets of Athinas, Ermou, Hero- dou Attikou and Mitropoleos, will be conver- ted into pedestrian zones under the scope of the project. Moreover, a new bicycle lane is also being built that will follow the course of the pedestrian zone.

NIRNBERG NUREMBERG Čari Carske tvrđave
SALCBURG SALZBURG Dvorac koji je inspirisao Mocarta
NJUJORK NEW YORK Igraće se US Open
Kao drugi najveći grad u Bavarskoj, Nirn- berg često ostaje u senci Minhena, ali i te kako ima šta da ponudi posetiocima. Ma- lo je poznato da od svih nemačkih velikih gradova ima najviše muzeja po glavi sta- novnika, a tačka sa koje se pogledom grli ceo grad je Carska tvrđava. Deo je zamka Kajzerburg, smeštenog na brdu, koji pred- stavlja simbol grada još od srednjeg veka. Turisti se uglavnom zadržavaju na zidina- ma zamka i uživaju u pogledu, iako imaju mogućnost da posete rezidencijalnu car- sku palatu, kapelu i toranj. CHARMS OF THE IMPERIAL CASTLE As the second largest city in Bavaria, Nuremberg often remains in Munich’s sha- dow, but it also has plenty to offer visi- tors. It isn’t common knowledge that it has the most museums per capita of all major German cities, and the point from whi- ch views embrace the entire city is the Im- perial Castle. Part of the Kaiserburg fortre- ss located on a hilltop, it has represented a symbol of the city since the Middle Ages. The majority of tourists usually stay on the castle walls and enjoy the views, although they can take advantage of the available tour of the residential imperial castle, cha- pel and tower.
Otvoreno prvenstvo Amerike definitivno će se održati prema planu od 31. avgusta do 13. septembra, saopštio je Endru Kuo- mo, guverner države Njujork. Turnir će se održati pod posebnim uslovima, a u ovom trenutku nije poznato da li će na US Ope- nu igrati Novak Đoković i Rafael Nadal. Ne- izvesno je i učešće Rodžera Federera, koji je ove godine čak dva puta operisao kole- no. Ipak, organizatori su odlučni da održe turnir jer veruju da će biti od koristi i njima, i teniserima, i kompletnom teniskom svetu. U.S. OPEN TO BE PLAYED Tennis’s U.S. Open will definitely be held according to plan, from 31 st August to 13 th September, according to an announce- ment given by Andrew Cuomo, governor of the state of New York. The tournament wi- ll be held under special conditions and at present it’s unknown whether Novak Đoko- vić and Rafael Nadal will compete. Also in question is the participation of Roger Fe- derer, who underwent knee surgery twice this year. However, the organisers are de- termined to hold the tournament because they believe it will benefit them, the tennis players and the entire tennis world.
Na svakom koraku ovde možete videti bi- sere arhitekture u baroknom stilu, a jedan od njih je svakako dvorac Mirabel, koji ka- rakterišu predivni vrtovi, fontane i statue rimskih i grčkih bogova. Vrtovi Mirabela su biser hortikulture i turisti uživaju u šetnji predivnim ambijentom u kojem se tokom letnjih meseci često organizuju koncerti. Najlepša prostorija u dvorcu je Mermerna dvorana, a zanimljivo je da žitelji Salcbur- ga ponosno ističu da su cvetni parkovi tog dvorca inspirisali Mocarta da komponuje Čarobnu frulu . PALACE THAT INSPIRED MOZART At every step here you can see gems of Ba- roque style architecture, amongst which is certainly Mirabell Palace, characterised by its beautiful gardens, fountains and statues of Roman and Greek gods. Mirabell Gar- dens are a pearl of horticulture and tourists enjoy strolling in the beautiful ambience, where concerts are often organised during the summer months. The most beautiful space in the palace is the Marble Hall, while it is also interesting that natives of Salzburg proudly note that the floral parks of this pa- lace even inspired Mozart to compose his opera The Magic Flute.

IZ MOG UGLA ZORAN KUZMANOVIĆ, VAJAR Pobednik para beogradsko nebo Brojni su razlozi zbog kojih je Pobednik toliko važan. Osim neosporne umetničke majstorije Ivana Meštrovića i povoda zbog kojeg je poručen kao simbol slobode nakon viševekovnog ropstva, presudan momenat bilo je pozicioniranje na visokom stubu na Kalemegdanu D a je skulptura bila postavljena na Terazijama, kako je prvobitno bilo planirano, možda ne bi bila toliko upečatljiva. Nalazila bi se izme- đu visokih zgrada, konkurentnih formi grad- skog ambijenta. Međutim, njenim postav- ljanjem na Kalemegdanu, na horizontu između zemlje i neba, samim načinom na koji je postavljena, a koji poten- cira vertikalnost, učinjeno je da jednostavno na toj poziciji para nebo, deluje antigravitaciono. To što je sagledavamo iz velike udaljenosti i naročito zbog načina na koji je Me- štrović stilizovao samu formu skulpture, učinilo je da po- stane simbol i prepoznatljivi znak Beograda. Radovi koji su izvršeni na površini forme skulpture krajem prošle i početkom ove godine povezani su isključi- vo sa dugoročnim očuvanjem spomenika. Apsolutno nika- kvih intervencija nije bilo na samoj formi skulpture, osim na mestima koja su imala mehanička oštećenja. Odgovor- nost je sigurno bila velika, iako imam više od 20 godina iskustva u radu sa bronzom i poznajem dobro tehnološ- ke procese u vezi sa njom. Posao jeste bio veliki izazov, ali nijednog trenutka nisam osetio strah da neću moći da ga
uradim jer i sam u svom umetničkom ra- du najviše koristim bronzu, koja je tradicio- nalan materijal. Bronza je od samog počet- ka prepoznata kao materijal koji se koristi i u svetovne i u sakralne svrhe. U umetno- sti je upravo najčešće korišćena u gurativ- noj skulpturi, u predstavljanu ljudskog tela.

The grey hawk on the Victor’s left hand speaks of vigilance, with him making sure that the enemy does not reappear, while the sword in his right hand symbolises a new victory
FROM MY PERSPECTIVE ZORAN KUZMANOVIĆ, SCULPTOR The Victor breaks up the Belgrade sky There are many reasons why the Victor monument is so important. Apart from the indisputable artistic mastery of Ivan Meštrović and the reason why it was ordered - as a symbol of freedom after centuries of slavery - the crucial moment was its positioning on a high pillar in Kalemegdan Fortress. H ad the sculpture been placed on Terazi- je, as was originally planned, it perhaps wouldn‘t have been so impressive. It would be located between tall buildings, compet- itive forms of urban ambience. Howev- er, its placement in Kalemegdan Fortress, on the hori- zon between earth and sky, with the very way in which it was placed, and which emphasises it verticality, en- sured that it simply breaks apart the sky in that position, acting like antigravity. e fact that we view it from a great distance, and particularly due to the way in which Meštrović stylised the very form of the sculpture, en- sured that it simply became a symbol and a recognisa- ble sign of Belgrade. e works undertaken at the end of last year and the beginning of this year on the surface forms of the sculpture are related exclusively to the long- term preservation of the monument. ere were absolutely no interventions on the form of the sculpture itself, except in places that had sustained mechanical damage. e responsibility was cer- tainly great, even though I have more than 20 years of experience working with bronze and am very familiar with the related technological pro- cesses. e job was certainly a great challenge, but at no point did I fear that I wouldn‘t be able to do it, because in my own artistic work I mostly use bronze, which is a traditional material. Bronze has been recognised since the very beginning as a ma- terial that‘s used for both secular and sacral pur- poses. In art it is the most commonly used ma- terial in figurative sculpture, in representations of the human body. ere were several parallel jobs to do on the Victor sculpture, with the primary one being solv- ing statics. We estimated that the monument is statically risky and that it could even collapse if hit by a stronger wind. e sculpture is four metres and 20 cen-
Ko je Zoran Kuzmanović Jedan je od najznačajnijih vajara u bronzi. Rođen je 1967. u Smederevu. Diplomirao je na FLU u Beogra- du 1993, a završio je magistarske studije 2002.

Pobednik je skulptura koja je u svakom

Na skulpturi Pobednika bilo je nekoliko paralelnih poslova, a primarno je bilo rešavanje stati- ke. Procenili smo da je spome- nik statički rizičan i da bi pri ja- čem udaru vetra mogao čak i da se sruši. Skulptura je visoka če- tiri metra i 20 centimetara, teš- ka oko tonu, a sada, sa dodatom konstrukcijom od 400 do 500 ki- lograma, ima oko tonu i po. Vo- dili smo računa da obezbedimo statiku koja će joj dati najveći ste- ogromnu pažnju.

Na sreću, spomenik je izbe- gao uništenje za vreme Prvog svetskog rata jer je pred sam početak bio poslat u Austrougarsku, u Češku, na livenje, gde je ostao do kraja rata. Pobednik predstav- lja oslobođenje, pobedu nad feudalizmom, ropstvom, dok njegova nagost simbolizuje ulazak u renesansu. Sivi soko na levoj ruci govori o budnosti, on pazi da se neprijatelj ponovo ne pojavi, dok mač u desnoj ruci simbolizuje novu pobedu. Spomenik je svečano otkri- ven 1928. godine, za vreme proslave desetogodišnji- ce proboja Solunskog fronta i srpske pobede u ratovi- ma od 1912. do 1918. Radio sam mnogo različitih poslova u vezi sa skul- pturama i restauracijom, ali svakako bih svoj rad na Po- bedniku izdvojio kao veoma važan i nekako najvidlji- viji. Stoga sam veoma ponosan na to.

Pobednik je, ina- če, izliven u Češkoj i odlivak je značajno bolji od Spo- menika zahvalnosti Francuskoj, na čijoj sam rekon- strukciji takođe radio. Što se tiče oštećenja na samom Pobedniku, ošte- ćen je zbog popuštanja veze u postolju i zbog u origi- nalu tanko livene plinte na kojoj su gvozdenim šra- fovima bila pričvršćena stopala skulpture.

Ivan Meštrović started work- ing on the monument in 1913, working on it for eight months. He sculpted and shaped the sculpture in the sports hall of the primary school in Kralja Petra I Street in Belgrade. Fortunately, the mon- ument escaped being destroyed during World War I, because prior to the outbreak of war it was sent

We took care to provide statics that would give it the highest degree of security. e en- tire form is now consolidated and the substructure has been strengthened internally. Interestingly, the Victor was cast in the Czech Republic, and the casting is sig- nificantly better than the Monument of Gratitude to France, the reconstruction of which I also worked on. When it comes to the damage to the Victor itself, it was damaged due to the loosening of the links in the pedestal and due to the thin cast iron plinth of the orig- inal, to which the feet of the sculpture were fastened using iron screws. e monument also had more than 30 bullet holes. us, statics were one part of the job, while repairing the holes was another. e holes were closed using materials with the same or a similar chem-

I‘ve done many different jobs related to sculpture and restoration, but I would certainly single out my work on the Victor sculpture as being very important and somehow the most visible, and that‘s why I‘m very proud of that.

SALVADOR I GALA LJUBAV DUGA POLA VEKA Kako je silno voleo ludi genije „Zovem svoju ženu Gala, Galuška, Gradiva, Oliva zbog ovalnog oblika njenog lica i maslinaste boje njene kože... Takođe je zovem Lajonet, zato što kada se naljuti, reži kao lav“. Tako je Dali voleo svoju suprugu – ludački, opsesivno, do bola, do smrti, opraštajući joj sve, idealizujući je, poklanjajući joj dušu, telo, nebesa i carstva...

P reskočićemo dosadne uvode i biografske po- datke, svako ko voli i ceni rad legendarnog Dalija, zna ih, makar u načelu. Ljubavna pri- ča Dalijevog života, njegova istinita bajka, to je jedna od najbizarnijih, najinteresantnijih i najljubavnijih ljubavi 20. veka. Ko je bila Gala? Gala je zapravo bila Elena Ivanovna Dijakonova, prele- pa Ruskinja iz Kazanja, tajanstvena, strastvena i intuitiv- na žena, atraktivna dama sa maslinastom kožom i crnim očima, omiljena u krugovima intelektualne elite. Ume- la je da namiriše kreativnog genija na kilometar, rado je provodila sate i dane sa njima, šarmirala ih i inspirisala. Gala je uplovila u bračne vode sa francuskim pesnikom Polom Elijarom, sa kojim je dobila i ćerku Sesil, ali ume- sto mirne luke, za nju je ta veza predstavljala samo kar- tu za poznanstva sa najvećim umetnicima tog vremena. A onda je srela 25-godišnjeg Salvadora Dalija, sasvim ne- običnog, ekscentričnog i čitavu deceniju mlađeg od nje. Susret kao udar groma Dali je u svom dnevniku opisao taj prvi trenutak, taj eksplozivni susret koji je odredio njihove živote i obojio ih ludilom, uspehom i strašću. „Ona je suđena da bude moja Gradiva (junakinja iz romana V. Jensena), ona koja me gura napred, moja po- beda, moja žena“, napisao je on. I zaista, od tada pa do same smrti Gala je bila Dalijeva do srži, do kostiju, ona je bila izbor njegovog života i neophodnost – kao vazduh ili hrana. Za Salvadora je poznanstvo sa Galom bilo kao udar groma – ona se tačno uklapala u sliku nepoznate, elegan- tne žene koja ga je često proganjala u snovima. Priča kazu- je kako se legendarni slikar, pre nego što je krenuo na sa- stanak sa lepom Ruskinjom, namazao sopstvenom krvlju, pocepao odeću i premazao se odvratnim ribljim lepkom. To je bio trenutak slabosti i ludila i to je opisivalo kako sam se osećao pre nego što sam upoznao Galu. Da, ja sam bio potpuno lud pre nje, moj mozak je bio blizu mozga jed- nog patološkog bolesnika. Ona je od mog života stvorila pra- vi misticizam i pravi klasicizam, rekao je Španac u jednom intervjuu. Ljubav kao centar univerzuma Za Dalija je Gala bila nepresušna i večna inspiraci- ja, tajni sastojak poleta i sreće u njegovom životu. O to- me kolika je bila njegova ljubav, svedoči i podatak da su svi ženski likovi na Dalijevim slikama inspirisani upravo njom, a većinu svojih slika potpisao je sa Gala – Salvador Dali. Ona se postavila kao njegov verni pratilac, saveznik i prijatelj, kao i dobar organizator, sjajan asistent i zastu- pnik, zapravo jedna vrsta menadžera. Njegovu umetnost je pretvorila u mašineriju za zgrtanje novca i u trci za bo- gatstvom bila je lukava, predana i direktna – nikada se nije stidela da traži još novca za dela svog muža. Često mu je čitala dok je slikao, ali mu i govorila šta da slika, koje boje da koristi i koje greške da ispravi.
SALVADOR AND GALA LOVE ENDURING HALF A CENTURY How strongly the crazy genius loved “I name my wife: Gala, Galushka, Gradiva; Oliva, for the oval shape of her face and the colour of her skin... I also call her Lionette, because when she gets angry she roars like the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lion.” This is how Dalí loved his wife – madly, obsessively, through pain, to death, forgiving everything she did, idolising her, giving her soul, body, heavens and kingdoms...
