[SYDNEY PARK, CISFEMALE, SHE/HER/HERS] who’s that? oh it’s [JENNIFER “JENNY” HAYES]. i hear they’re [EIGHTEEN] and are known as [THE DADDY’S GIRL] around [THE COUNTRY CLUB]. they’re also a [FRESHMAN] at [PURDUE HCC]. they’re known to be [CHARMING & OUTSPOKEN] and [MEAN & STUBBORN]. some people say they remind them of [FOOTBALL GAMES UNDER THE LIGHTS, SUMMERS BY THE POOL, GOSSIPING IN THE GIRLS’ BATHROOM, GETTING MANI/PEDIS, & PARTIES AT THE LAKE HOUSE]. 

basics.

full name: jennifer anne hayes. nicknames: jenny, mostly. sometimes jen (though the people who call her that? generally not friends. she doesn’t go by jen as a rule.) gender/pronouns: cisfemale/she/her/hers. sexual orientation: she’s, like, super gay, dude. she’s also so deep in the closet that she’s found narnia. birthday: august 22nd. star sign: leo. charismatic, confident, determined...and a bit vain, pretentious, and arrogant. occupation: incoming freshman at purdue, on a cheer scholarship and studying hospitality or something equally boring that she doesn’t really care about. she doesn’t have to work because her dad’s a doctor. lucky her.

personality.

positive traits: outgoing, clever, charming, confident, ambitious. negative traits: confrontational, self-absorbed, vain, mean, cocky. hogwarts house: i know jkr sucks and also this isn’ a thing in the 80s but she’s a really MEAN gryffindor. the asshole kind. think james potter at his absolute WORST. that’s jenny. alignment: chaotic evil. ennegram: 3w2. personality type: esfp.

backstory.

born to the hayes family on a rainy august night, jenny arrived on the scene just like she did everything in life: early and on her terms. she was breech, supposed to be a scheduled c-section, and born in the month of september but...some things don’t go as planned. (after an emergency c-section with her youngest, mrs. hayes vowed that she was done having kids).

her father is a surgeon at hawkins general hospital, which means he’s a busy guy and not around much. her mother took care of raising her and her three older siblings. and for the most part, it was fine. her parents aren’t in love at all and should probably be divorced by now, but dr. hayes’ income supports her mom -and jenny’s- lavish lifestyle, so they’re together “for the kids”...but mostly for the cash.

the hayes family lives in the rich part of hawkins, in a housing development full of snobby people with too many cars in the driveway and lots of kids. they have a lake house on lover’s lake, a vacation home in the carolinas, and their own pool in their hawkins home, which made jenny’s house a popular place to bring the kids when they were little...and a popular party spot when they got a bit older.

jenny’s is the youngest of four and she owns it. being the baby of the family, she got pretty much whatever she wanted growing up. her dad works long hours as the hospital and her mom just didn’t seem to care outside of making sure her daughter looked good, so she was able to buy friends and popularity fairly easily throughout middle and high school.

growing up with a mostly absentee father and a mom who was exhausted and relied a little too heavily on her wine meant that jenny was free to do pretty much whatever she wanted. as a kid, she played almost every sport imaginable, but ultimately settled on a love of cheerleading because her siblings played sports and she liked cheering for them and tumbling...and, as she got older, because it opened the door to popularity. because jenny doesn’t get a ton of validation at home, she seeks it out elsewhere: from teachers, friends, and boys, mostly even though she doesn’t even like them very much.

she’s known she likes girls since she was ten. when her friends were losing their minds over tom cruise, she was obsessing over the likes of molly ringwald. when her friends were drooling over han solo, she was falling for princess leia. it’s not something she’s exactly dealt with. she’s hooked up with a few of her friends, teammates, and high school classmates since then. it’s not because she’s worried about what her parents think. they probably wouldn’t care either way...but it would  probably fuck up her reputation. it’s hawkins, indiana in the 1980s. freaks are ostracized. she knows because she was doing the ostracizing. and popularity is important to her so...she figures she’ll just wait until she leaves for college to figure that shit out. it’s not important anyway.

the first girl jenny ever kissed was taken by the mindflayer in 1985. when she started acting weird and standoffish, jenny took it as a...sign. that maybe she shouldn’t be doing that. (and that maybe she was worse at reading people than she thought.)

this still weighs on jenny a bit. the girl wasn’t just a random classmate. it was one of jenny’s best friends, cheer teammates, somebody who jenny trusted until she didn’t. it was puppy love, they were just kids but...you never forget your first, you know? and that girl’s just...gone. she’s kind of paranoid of getting too close to anybody ever again.

since she was a little girl, she’s always dreamed of the white picket fence, 2.5 kids, and a doting husband so she can keep doing the stuff she likes to do. the only problem is...she’s not sure she wants a husband if they’re not just like her dad: never present and leaving her alone. but it’s still a dream -one her mother is obsessed with- so...that’s the plan, after college.

but while she’s in college? she’s ready to mess around and figure some stuff out. marriages were never supposed to be about love anyway, right?

unbeknownst to jenny, her dad’s about to lose his license for giving out pain pill prescriptions without cause. he’s going to lose his job, probably flee town, and leave her mom to pick up the pieces...and with no access to the bank account dr. hayes is the sole proprietor of.

because of this, her partial cheer scholarship? not going to cut it. she’s gonna be stuck at HCC for the foreseeable future, much to her chagrin.

Plots n stuff

bring me ALLL the flings. i want guys she’s hooked up with to try and convince herself she’s not gay. i want all the girls she hooked up with while drunk at parties or just because she wanted to. bring me a girl she’s actually very much in love with but has convinced herself she can’t be. i want it all.

her friends are probably mostly the popular crew of the party’s time at hawkins high. she’s a cheerleader. she runs with the jocks. she probably knows some of the kids who’d have been juniors or seniors when they were freshman, too. (but she also really, really respects erica sinclair’s bite, so they’re fairly close, too.)

a beard would be fun. maybe a mutual beard, depending on the guy? idk. talk to me!

she and the party, uh, aren’t really on the same page. she was probably outright rude to most of them in middle school and pretended they didn’t exist during high school (except for you, max mayfield. you, she remembers.)

she also had a feeling about will byers. gaydar is a thing! i think part of her reaction to his death was because...she could see herself in his place if she let herself exist like she wants to once she leaves hawkins. oops. 

she does have older siblings! i’m not sure if she’s particularly close to them or if they’re relevant in her life but if you wanted to pick one up we can chat and flesh it out for sureee.

she’s completely oblivious to any and all supernatural happenings in hawkins and will probably remain that way. like you could tell her her not-girlfriend was taken by the mindflayer and she’d roll her eyes at you and ask if you were high. she simply does not really care about All of That stuff. (here for a good time, not a long time.)

Trade Insurance Market to Witness Excellent Revenue Growth Owing to Rapid Increase in Demand

Advance Market Analytics released a new market study on Global Trade Insurance Market Research report which presents a complete assessment of the Market and contains a future trend, current growth factors, attentive opinions, facts, and industry validated market data. The research study provides estimates for Global Trade Insurance Forecast till 2027*.

Global trade has changed significantly since the financial crisis and the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008, which spread protectionism and nationalism amid global economic and political volatility. To fill the gap left by banks shrinking their balance sheets, commercial transactions have been increasingly supported by structured credit modalities carried out by factories, financing ‘Accounts Receivable’ in local and international currencies. The Covid-19 crisis is further transforming the trade credit market. The sector may reach USD 10 trillion in volume globally by 2030. Trade credit insurers are also impacted by the Covid-19 crisis. With an expectation of increasing loss trends in the short term, indemnity reserves may need to be established. The market appetite following Covid-19 may be a little different from what we saw in the past decade. Countries like France, Germany, and the Netherlands have introduced measures offering support to the trade credit insurance industry through guarantees backed by public funds, allowing insurers to maintain limits and capacity. In turn, insurers transfer part of the premium collected to the government. This is an interesting and creative tool that if adopted in other countries such as in Brazil could not only protect the credit insurance industry but perhaps most importantly, guarantee access to commercial credit which is vital for the economy.

Key Players included in the Research Coverage of Trade Insurance Market are HCC International (United Kingdom),Travelers (United States),Euler Hermes (France),Credimundi (Belgium),ACE (United Kingdom),Argo Surety (United Kingdom),Zurich (Switzerland),AIG (United States),Novae Group plc (United Kingdom),SACE BT (Italy),Atradius (United Kingdom),Aon (United Kingdom)

Lupine Publishers | Validity of Serum Markers for Fibrosis Staging in Chronic Hepatitis B and C Patients

Introduction

According to latest report globally about 350 million people are affected by Hepatitis B virus and about 686,000 die every year from Hepatitis B related diseases[1,2]. Similarly, more than 185 million people around the world are infected with Hepatitis C virus, of whom 350,000 die each year[3,4]. Hepatic fibrosis, regardless of the underlying a etiology, is a consequence of accumulation of extracellular matrix components in the liver. This process is caused by persistent liver damage and consequent wound healing reaction, leading to cirrhosis, portal hypertension, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), all these cumulatively leading to increased morbidity and mortality [5,6]. Thus accurate assessment of liver fibrosis is essential for successful individualized disease management for people with chronic hepatitis B and C7. Although liver biopsy, till date, remains the gold standard for diagnosis of liver fibrosis but it is far from optimal because of many associated complications [8,9,10]. To overcome these limitations multiple noninvasive modalities have been introduced. Various non-invasive parameters which could replace the biopsy of the infected liver include: - FIB-4[11], APRI[12], AST/ALT ratio[13], Kings Score[14], Frons index[15], Elastography[16] and Fibro scan[17]. Our study included the following three parameters as alternative to liver biopsy: FIB-4, APRI (Aspartate Aminotransferase to Platelet Ratio Index) and AST/ALT Ratio (Aspartate transaminase)/ (Alanine transaminase).

Materials and Methods

The current study was a hospital based prospective study which was conducted in the Department of Internal Medicine and Department of Gastroenterology, Government Medical College, Srinagar, J&K (INDIA). The study was approved by the respective ethical committees of the college. The study was conducted over a period of 36 months starting from August 2014 to July 2017. The study was approved by the respective ethical committees of the college. A total of 262 patients were included and out of them 172 were infected with hepatitis B and 90 patients were infected with hepatitis C. All Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) and Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC) patients seen in the OPD or admitted in IPD were enrolled and investigated as per the study design. Patients were explained about the liver biopsy procedure, its advantages and possible adverse effects. Patient’s history was taken, and physical examination was carried out. Written informed consent was obtained from each participant. Patients were ≥ 18 years of age of either sex. All patients’ laboratory data (alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate aminotransferase [AST], platelet count) were collected. FIB-4[12], APRI[13]were calculated by sterlings[11]and wai’s[12] formulas respectively:

Fibrosis stage was calculated by abstraction from liver biopsy reports. Fibrosis scores from different scoring systems (IASL[18], Metavir[19], Ishak[20], Knodell[21]) were mapped to a F0–F4 equivalency scale: F0, no fibrosis; F1, portal fibrosis without septa; F2, portal fibrosis with few septa; F3, numerous septa without cirrhosis; and F4, cirrhosis (Table 1). If the patient had more than one biopsy, the earliest biopsy with the highest fibrosis stage and available laboratory results was used for this analysis[18].

Statistical Analysis

We first validated predefined serum markers then developed and validated cut-offs of the serum markers for classification of cirrhosis (F4) or advanced fibrosis (F3–F4). The serum markers of interest were as follows: APRI, FIB-4 and ALT/AST ratio, as defined in the previous section. The endpoints of interest were the presence of advanced fibrosis (F3–4 vs F0–2) and the presence of cirrhosis (F4 vs F0–3) in case of Chronic Hepatitis C. However, in our study, in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection who underwent liver biopsy, no patient had a histological grade of F3 or F4. In such scenario, comparison was made between those with few bridges or septa (F2) and no fibrosis (F0). The data was entered in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet. Continuous variables were summarized as mean and standard deviation (SD). Categorical variables were summarized as percentages. Radius of Curvature (ROC) curves were constructed for APRI and FIB-4 scores and AST/ ALT ratio. Liver biopsy results was taken as standard. Area under ROC curve was reported along with its 95% confidence interval for APRI, FIB-4 and AST/ALT ratio. A p-value of <0.05 was considered as statistically significant.

Results

Out of 90 CHC patients, 18 belonged to 18-30-year age group, 36 patients belonged to 31-45 age group. Twenty-three patients were between 46-60 years of age whereas thirteen patients belonged to 61-75-year age group. Similarly, out of 172 CHB, 34 belonged to 18-30-year age group, 68 patients belonged to 31-45 age group. Fifty-five patients were between 46-60 years of age whereas fifteen patients belonged to 61-75-year age group. In our study out of 172 patients of CHB, 107 were male and 65 were females with male to female ratio of 1.6:1. Similarly out of 90 patients of hepatitis CHC, 56 were males and 34 were females and the male to female ratio was 1.6:1. On combining the two groups, out of 262 patients there was slight male preponderance with total male to female ratio of 1.6:1.

A. Chronic Hepatitis C

We compared AUROCs of the FIB-4 index with those of the other indices for the classification of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis, respectively (Figure-1&2, Table 2&3).

The AUROC for FIB-4 in differentiating F3–F4 from F0–F2 was 0.940 (95% CI: 0.788–0.994) when compared with AST/ALT Ratio with p value of 0.019 and AUROC for APRI was 0.856(95% CI: 0.680–0.957) when compared with FIB-4 with p value of 0.321 for CHC. The AUROC for FIB-4 in differentiating F4 from F0–F3 was 0.926 (95% CI: 0.769–0.989) when compared with AST/ALT Ratio with p value of 0.007 and AUROC for APRI was 0.070(95% CI: 0.721–0.974)) when compared with FIB-4 with p value of 0.374 for CHC.

B. Chronic Hepatitis B

In case of CHB, comparison was done between AUROCs of the FIB-4 index with those of the other indices for the classification of those with few bridges or septa (F2) and no fibrosis (F0); and fibrous portal expansion (F2 vs F0-F1)(Figure-3,Table 4). The AUROC for FIB-4 in differentiating F2 from F0–F1 was 0.839 (95% CI: 0.667–0.944) when compared with AST/ALT Ratio with p value of 0.038 and AUROC for APRI was 0.801(95% CI: 0.614– 0.915) when compared with FIB-4 with p value of 0.732 for CHB.

Cut-off Values for Predicting Fibrosis and Cirrhosis Using FIB-4 in CHC

Based on the AUROC analysis in the previous section, FIB- 4 had the best overall utility for prediction of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis in a chronic hepatitis C population compared with the other two markers, as FIB-4 score outperformed the other serum markers and was superior to AST/ALT ratio and almost similar to APRI. We next derived optimal cut-off values of FIB-4 for distinguishing the lower end of liver stage (F0–F2) and upper end of liver stage (F3, cirrhosis) for CHC. The optimal cut-off of FIB-4 in distinguishing F3,F4 vs F0-F2 was >2.30 with sensitivity and specificity of 91.7% and 88.9% respectively. For APRI, optimal cut-off was >1.66 with sensitivity and specificity of 75% and 91.4% respectively and for AST/ALT ratio optimal cut-off was >1.35 with sensitivity and specificity of 50% and 83.9% respectively. Similarly, the optimal cut-off of FIB-4 in distinguishing F4 vs F0- F3 was >2.50 with sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 81.8% respectively. For APRI, optimal cut-off was >1.74 with sensitivity and specificity of 87.5% and 82.4% respectively and for AST/ALT ratio optimal cut-off was >1.43 with sensitivity and specificity of 57.5% and 80.9% respectively.

Cut-off Values for Predicting few bridges or septa (F2) and no fibrosis (F0); and fibrous portal expansion (F2 vs F0-F1) in CHB

Similarly, the optimal cut-off of FIB-4 in distinguishing few bridges or septa (F2) and no fibrosis (F0); and fibrous portal expansion (F2 vs F0-F1) was >1.33 with sensitivity and specificity of 86.3% and 78.5% respectively. For APRI, optimal cut-off was >0.68 with sensitivity and specificity of 80.1% and 82.9% respectively and for AST/ALT ratio optimal cut-off was >0.54 with sensitivity and specificity of 71.2% and 73.6% respectively[Table 5].

Discussion

While analysing our results for these markers, FIB-4 was found out to be a better marker for detecting the degree of fibrosis in CHC. In early stages of fibrosis (F0-F2), keeping a cut-off value >2.3, the sensitivity and specificity of FIB-4 was 91.7% and 88.9% respectively. At further advanced degree of fibrosis i.e., cirrhosis, the sensitivity of cut-off value of >2.5 for FIB-4 reaches 100%. The cut-off valve obtained of APRI score 1.66 was similar to study conducted by [22]where the cut-off valve of APRI has been 1.5, the sensitivity and specificity of APRI has been more than 75% and 91.4% for F0-F2 and F3, F4 (significant fibrosis) score. The APRI score in similarity with FIB-4 score is quite valuable in advanced stage of fibrosis (cirrhosis), but in early stages of fibrosis the APRI score has not been of much significance, though the effect can be attributed to very less number of patients in this group. The higher sensitivity and specificity pattern obtained from FIB-4 and APRI score was not reflected by AST/ALT ratio in our study, with the sensitivity and specificity falling to 50% and 37% to stages F3 and F4 respectively.

The superiority of FIB-4 and APRI with AST/ALT ratio in predicting the fibrosis is validated by the study conducted by [23]. However in case of CHB,FIB-4 has definitely being shown to be almost close to liver biopsy in predicting the histopathology of liver. The other two scoring systems like APRI and AST/ALT ratio have not proved to be better than FIB-4. The results of the study conducted by Yilmaz et al. [24] reported that APRI had acceptable accuracy for assessment of fibrosis with CHC but same was not applicable for CHB, though we had no patients of advanced fibrosis, but even on comparing the patients of mild with moderate fibrosis, APRI was not as significant marker with AUC of 0.644 and 95% CI of 0.455 to 0.804. FIB-4 again served as a significant marker to distinguish patients of mild fibrosis (F0, F1) from patients with moderate fibrosis with AUC of 0.839 and 95% CI (0.667 to 0.944) and p-valve of 0.038. The studies conducted by Zhang et al. [25] in the past revealed FIB-4 as a diagnostic marker to discriminate between patients of early fibrosis and advanced fibrosis. The advantage of our study was its prospective design and adoption of strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. The disadvantage of our study was the small sample size.

Conclusion

Thus, our study suggests that FIB-4 and APRI are excellent surrogate markers for liver fibrosis while ASL/ALT is not a very sensitive marker. Among all these scores FIB-4 is the best. On the basis of our results, we recommend use of FIB-4 as a surrogate marker for liver fibrosis across all age groups. We further recommend that larger number of patients to be undertaken in future studies.

Investigating Grow older Correct Coagulation Reference Times to Support Affected person Body Supervision from the Aging adults: Any Confirmation Review.

Balloon-occluded transarterial chemoembolization (B-TACE) will be able to achieve denser piling up involving Lipiodol emulsion (LE) inside hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared to typical TACE. Even so, to maximise the therapeutic aftereffect of B-TACE, it's imperative to view the hemodynamic adjustments that arise throughout arterial stoppage. We right here existing two individuals along with HCC within to whom the hemodynamic changes in the course of arterial closure have been depicted as well as examined by contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination (CEUS). Arterial circulation at night catheter suggestion had been seen through CEUS even after balloon stoppage. In a patient, home loan business arterial blood flow in the HCC was observed by CEUS through device closure of the targeted position for embolization. After B-TACE, lustrous build up within the HCC nodule ended up being confirmed by simply flat-panel alarm CT, indicating an excellent restorative influence. Within the other affected person, absolutely no adjustments to arterial the circulation of blood in the HCC nodule have been observed by simply CEUS in the course of balloon closure from the goal area for embolization. After B-TACE, intermediate The deposition within the HCC nodule ended up being validated simply by flat-panel sensor CT, showing an incomplete therapeutic result. Your findings obtained in the a pair of people shown right here declare that B-TACE can be performed more efficiently and also reliably by overseeing the flow of blood employing CEUS.Context: Bacterial isolates via intra-abdominal microbe infections, especially, peritonitis along with their unknown antimicrobial level of resistance habits, carry on being dependent on concern not simply internationally however regionally way too. Intention: An effort in the present examine is made to study your styles of medicine opposition inside bacterial isolates, specifically gr negative bacilli inside intra-abdominal attacks (IAI) in our clinic. Components and techniques: Via Hundred cases of peritonitis, id associated with isolates was over according to suggested techniques. Antimicrobial susceptibility as well as extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) testing were performed following a CLSI recommendations. Outcomes: As many as 133 scientific isolates had been attained, which One hundred and eight this website ended up aerobes along with 22 anaerobes. Yeast isolates were recoverable in mere about three circumstances. Escherichia coli (47/108) become probably the most major virus as well as Klebsiella spp. (27/108), whilst Bacteroides fragilis emerged as the actual main anaerobe (12/22). Amid coliforms, Sixty one.7% Electronic. coli and 74.1% Klebsiella spp. have been ESBL positive. If you are a of opposition had been witnessed pertaining to 'beta' lactams, ciprofloxacin, amikacin, along with ertapenem. Ertapenem resistance (30-41%) noticed in coliforms, looks like an important issue. Imipenem, tigecycline, and also colistin ended up probably the most consistently productive real estate agents tested versus ESBL producers. Finish: Medication opposition may be an important problem throughout isolates from intra-abdominal infections. Treatment method along with correct antibiotics beat by simply antimicrobial opposition assessment helped by earlier analysis, adequate operative supervision, and knowledge of antibiotic * resistant microorganisms appears good at reducing deaths along with fatality rate in IAI instances.

Finally, we discovered the combination of miR-4644 and miR-16 revealed high performance in stability when compared to miRNA individuals. Further study showed that miR-4644 exhibited higher stability and expression abundance than other commonly miRNA reference controls. Results: 11 candidate miRNAs were obtained, and miR-4644 stood out among these miRNAs, and proved to be much more stable than other endogenous miRNAs. We also explored the availability of the miRNA combination, and compared the performance difference between combination and individuals, as well as the selectivity of miRNA references in the combinations. Furthermore, the stability of target genes was evaluated using geNorm, NormFinder, comparative ΔCq programs, and validated by database. Then, the expression levels of these genes in serum were analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) among four groups, including patients diagnosed with HCC, chronic hepatitis B (CHB), liver cirrhosis, and healthy subjects. Five commonly reference genes were chosen for further comparison and verification. Methods: Candidate miRNAs were selected by screening dataset GSE104310, as well as data statistics and analysis. In this study, we aim to identify a stable endogenous normalizer for analyzing circulating miRNAs. However, no general consensus on an ideal endogenous normalizer for circulating miRNAs quantification has been reached, so it will affect the accuracy of quantitative results.

IJMS, Vol. 23, Pages 7882: Transcriptomic Analyses Reveal Long Non-Coding #RNA in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells as a Novel Biomarker for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Novel biomarkers are highly required for the diagnosis and predicting prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we investigated the profiles of long non-coding #RNAs (l#ncRNAs) obtained from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with HCC and PBMCs from a co-culture model using transcriptomic analysis. The differentially expressed l#ncRNAs (DEl#ncRNAs) were then characterized and integrated as #cancer-induced l#ncRNAs. Among them, three up-regulating DEl#ncRNAs including MIR4435-2HG, SNHG9 and lnc-LCP2-1 and one down-regulating, lnc-POLD3-2, were identified. The functional analysis showed that these enriched l#ncRNAs were mainly associated with carcinogenesis and immune responses. Following further validation in PBMCs samples (100 HBV-related HCC, 100 chronic hepatitis B and 100 healthy controls), MIR4435-2HG, lnc-POLD3-2 and their combination were revealed to be sensitive biomarkers in discriminating HCC from non-HCC (AUROC = 0.78, 0.80, and 0.87, respectively), particularly among individuals with normal serum alpha-fetoprotein levels. Additionally, high circulating SNHG9 expression was shown to be an independent prognostic factor of overall survival in patients with HCC. These results indicate that determining these l#ncRNAs in PBMCs could serve as novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for HBV-related HCC. https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/23/14/7882?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=tumblr
