Cooking !

As I am a girl, I am supposed to cook. And as an Australian said once on the phone, I am French, so I am supposed to cook.The thing is, cooking is useless when it is only for yourself. However, you can go into your own little world and not have to explain why you chose that particular recipe, and why you find it worth of interest.Well, of course, when you're choosing this, it is to be expected that people might not understand. Pfff.However, I'm sure the result will be disgusting, but hey, I never said I was a good cook - I just like video games. Should I be playing Cooking Mama, doc ? Anyone interested ? Recipe here ! Dunno if it's good, but it's funny ^^Oh, and by the way, great gig last night in Arras. For once, the Grand Place didn't look depressing (try it on a winter rainy day, it's lovely. Or not). Met a lot of great people. I'm terrible with names, but it' not that important, is it ? I remember sharing a nice "pain et saucisson à l'ail" and sudoku games, lengthy conversations, and got another sunburn - Just like in Paris. I think I can claim the title of "reddest calf of all Arras". Ouch. Should have seen it coming, I mean, when you enjoy baking 1-UP Mario mushrooms, you can't have a social life, get out of your room and prepare your skin for the sun, can you ? But this slight 'war injury' was worth it...I guess.

40/ Jigsaw Falling Into Place - In Rainbows - 2007When this song debuted, I thought it was average. It sounded like a Billy Idol tune with Radiohead guitars. It grew on me a little but I wasn't particularly fond of it. Then it was properly released and I love it. I love the chord changes in this song. The song's lyrics paint a picture of a fast-paced club scene and at the climax of this song the song just bursts with energy. From the furiously picked guitar arpeggios to the (what sounds like) harpsichord to the raised pitch in Thom's singing, this song just screams amazing.39/ 4 Minute Warning - In Rainbows (Disc 2) - 2007I was one of the few people who really liked the live version of this song back in '06. Jonny and Ed surrounded Thom (who was on piano) and they had a little campfire sing-a-long of sorts right there on stage. It was very lovely. It wasn't the best of the new material but it certainly had potential. And BOY did they milk it. The studio version of this song starts with what I can only describe as the sound of heat (it's obviously some sort of synth sound that they came up with... but it works well in the opening). But it's not a campfire sort of heat. More like the smoldering remains of a bombed out building. The lyrics are about the panic and chaos surrounding a 4 minute warning prior to a bombing. And the song sounds like what the scared people in the bomb shelter would sing while waiting.38/ Down Is The New Up - In Rainbows (Disc 2) - 2007Another of the 2006 new material songs. They still haven't played it on their current 2008 world tour... and I really want them to. I love the energy of this song. The lyrics are... alright. There are a couple funky lines in there but they fit the overall theme of the song. So not the best songwriting but the music more than makes up for it. It starts out with piano, drums, vocals, and then segways into the second part, adding guitars. But when the song crashes back into the verse, they introduce orchestra-size strings and give the song an eery, dark, and foreboding sound. Just before the verse ends, the strings build and build and build and then everything just releases into the short "jam" at the end. Thom described the recording and finished sound of this song as a headtrip. Spot on description, Thom.37/ Go To Sleep (Little Man Being Erased.) - Hail To The Thief - 2003There were a couple times when I considered leaving this song off the list. Then I listened to the song and there's just absolutely nothing wrong with this song. It is a classic rock tune. Radiohead showing us that they aren't all glitchy beats and ambient synth. Ed O'Brien, the rhythm guitarrist, is sort of the guy who brings everyone back to reality at times. He loves just rocking out and it was, in fact, he who came up with the opening guitar riff. But it's funny because you can almost feel the tug between bandmates' interests here. The rocking out is very nicely done. But it sounds like the song is almost sung by a robot in human form. There are little computer-induced freakouts here and there in the vocals and guitars that really sort of define what Radiohead are all about. Top-notch song.36/ House of Cards - In Rainbows - 2007Radiohead's "make-out song." Their sexiest song to date. I know for a fact that making love to this song has been done many, many, many times by many, many, many different people. There's just no doubt in my mind. "I don't want to be your friend. I just want to be your lover" is the opening line of the song. Judge for yourself.35/ Worrywort - Knives Out (Pt. 2) - 2001I think that this has quickly become one of my favorite Radiohead b-sides. If I had a properly tuned piano, I would immediately begin to work out the chord structure and little synth riff in the beginning. This is the computer-equivalent of a beautiful, beautiful piano song. I would give anything to see them play this live. And it has such a great message. Definitely proof that Radiohead aren't the gloom and doom band that everyone pretends them to be. "Think of all the fun you could be having." "Such a beautiful day. Find yourself a moment and go and get some wings." About a worrywort / hermit and how they need to live life free of their closed space.34/ Morning Bell - Kid A - 2001I love the drums and guitar in this song. Absolutely love it. I also love how it starts right in the middle of the noise left over from the song before it, "Idioteque." The song is about a marriage breaking up. Sad topic, lovely song.33/ Nude - In Rainbows - 2007Most Radiohead fans know that this song has been kicking around for at least 10 years. But the band could never figure out a proper way to record it. Apparently it has been attempted on every record from OK Computer and on. And now it's here. In its final form. And I love what they did with it. You can make the "old Nude is better than new Nude" argument all you want to but I still enjoy this song too much to hate on it. When I first listened to the In Rainbows version of this song I nearly cried because of the beauty of the beginning. I do wish that they had kept the strings from the beginning going. My only big gripe. But I don't think the song could be successfully pulled off any other way.32/ The Tourist - OK Computer - 1997Some of my favorite lyrics of all time. A rekindled love for this song was sparked from hearing an amazing live version earlier this year. Absolutely brilliant. "Hey man. Slow down."31/ Knives Out - Amnesiac - 2001Some of the creepiest lyrics ever written. And I love it! One of my favorites to play on guitar. The way Thom sings in this one also fits the feel of the songPart 3 later...

Kid A and Low and a little bit more

Kid A: Today I found out heard that Kid A was Radiohead's attempt to recreate David Bowie's transition from Station to Staion to Low. I now have to buy Station to Station. Have to find a good music store. I don't want another of his greatest hits. But they have a great collection of Coldplay, which I will not buy.Cd's and stuff: I like buying cd's. It's like an accomplishment walking home with the cd in the paperbag, not being able to wait to lie down and listen to it while reading the booklet. I havn't bought a cd in a while.Foot Locker: I want some nice sneakers but my local footlocker refuses to offer any.My Teeth: I haven't brushed my teeth in two days now. I think my breath smells. In fact I'm sure of it. I can taste it. And that lady collapsed a while ago. But it's okay because I'm not socialising too much now. I also haven't showered. But other than that I'm doin fine.Bread: My local supplier of bread has problems. His marriage is kinda in trouble. His premises caught fire and he can't deliver bread anymore. It's a bit selfish of him really. He decided to take the insurance money and do something else. And I now have to bear the cost of finding different ways to get bread.Privacy: People should really leave animals alone. But other than that I have two dogs and a cat. And maybe something else.

What really inspires me about this song is it just completely defies category. It rocks, it has rhythm, it's instrumental, it's not too wild (in that furious Battles way that rubs me wrongly for some reason), its like a hammer wailing away at your temples in just the right frequency and tempo to be OK, its OK that you're going to die from the hammer bashing your brains in because it feels good. EXPLAIN THAT!

Top 50ish Favorite Radiohead Songs
52/ Palo Alto - Airbag/How Am I Driving? EP - 1998It was only last week that I finally got my hands on a special edition of the Airbag/How Am I Driving? EP. I've always had the EP digitally but I never bought a physical copy. So as I was driving home from the record store with the songs blaring in my car, the CD player came to "Palo Alto" and I remembered just how much I love this song. I still think that this is the only b-side from the OK Computer era that could have had a place on the album without the album being made worse. I just love the explosions of guitar on "But I'm OK (BADADADA) How are you? (BADADADA)"51/ Backdrifts (Honeymoon Is Over.) - Hail To The Thief - 2003How could you not like this song? I absolutely love it. Album version and live version. I love the way this song starts and when the beat comes in with Thom's vocals. The song does suffer from an ending that's slightly too long but I love it regardless. I really, really want an instrumental version!50/ Go Slowly - In Rainbows (Disc 2) - 2007When this song first appeared in a set at a gig in England back in 2006, it was ok. Nothing to go on about. It was neat to hear a brand new song but the song itself wasn't very comparable with the rest of material that was debuted in both the same gig and later gigs. Then they released In Rainbows and I got my discbox in the mail and listened to the studio version. WOW. The song has such a cold and dark and pretty feel to it. Like a mysterious dark-haired girl. The song never really builds into a proper climax but the acoustic guitar at the end is more than enough. Not to mention the beautiful glockenspiel and electric guitar riffs. And that guitar "solo!" One detail I really miss from the live version is a riff that Jonny played during the verses that gave the song a slight "desolate desert" sound to the song. Oh well.49/ (Nice Dream) - The Bends - 1995One of my favorites off of The Bends. I absolutely love the chord changes in this song. I would be close to tears if I heard this played live at a future concert. Good tears, of course.48/ Scatterbrain (As Dead As Leaves.) - Hail To The Thief - 2003I've never fully understood why I love this song so much but it's such a perfectly formulated song. The sound, guitars, drums, singing, chord changes all fit the constant mood of the song: looking out a large window at a rainy, windy, messy-weather day. The trees blowing back and forth and the rain causing the whole image to distort.47/ Videotape - In Rainbows - 2007I would feel confident in saying this is one of the more "controversial" songs of Radiohead's repertoire. Not for the lyrics or singing. But for what they did to the studio version. Essentially, they took everything that made the song a fan favorite during its trial runs at live venues and got rid of it. The best live version of this song is definitely the Hammersmith Apollo debut of the song. It was the first time it was ever played publicly and it EXPLODED with energy. But when they got into the studio, they took away the proper drums and guitar and replaced them with a quiet electronic beat and... no guitar. But the twist? The studio version is actually a lot better and more fitting for the song. The lyrics go with the new version so much better than the 2006 live version. It took a couple of months before it clicked. But when it did, it became a personal favorite.46/ Where I End and You Begin (The Sky Is Falling In.) - Hail To The Thief - 2003This song features some of my favorite drumming and one of my favorite themes (musically) of all time (the opening notes). Also some fantastic lyrics. My favorite live performance of the song definitely has to be the performance I experienced firsthand in Atlanta this year.45/ Optimistic - Kid A - 2000I fell in love with this song when I picked up Kid A so long ago... and then I stopped listening to it. It became boring to me. And then Radiohead performed it in Atlanta this year. And I fell back in love with it. The studio version is so rich with "bony-sounding" guitars and a tribal sound unlike any other song they've done before. The lyrics follow the same theme with the opening line: "Flies are buzzing round my head. Vultures circling the dead. Picking up every last crumb." This song just ties together the overall sound of Kid A so perfectly. "Dinosaurs roaming the earth."44/ You and Whose Army? - Amnesiac - 2001I was stuck on this song for a good two weeks when I first got Amnesiac about 4 years ago. It starts so muddled... it reminds me of a man tired and weak from battle, the obvious loser of the fight, continuing to egg on the oversized army ahead of him. He then leads his small force against the larger in their last battle. This is also a live favorite of mine.43/ Fog (Again) - Com Lag 2plus2is5 - 2004"Fog (Again)" is just that song that is irresistable to sing along to. I love every inch of it. It makes me want to cry when I hear it just because it's such an emotion-riddled song. I'm not a huge fan of the electronic (or, original) version of the song though.42/ A Wolf at the Door (It Girl. Rag Doll.) - Hail To The Thief - 2003As I was listening to Scatterbrain while writing this, the song ended and skipped to the next song, "A Wolf At The Door." And I completely forgot how incredibly badass this song really is. Apologies for not originally considering it but when you have a few hundred songs to pick from the task gets a little daunting. Please find and listen to the Atlanta 2003 performance of this song. Amazing.41/ Lift - Live in Salamanca - 2002I don't think I need to describe why I like this song. Or why it needs to be on LP8. Or why I want them to play it live soon. Or why I love Thom's voice in it.More to come!

Radiohead tour

I finally have most of my travel plans figured out. I found a hostel in Hollywood that looks quite nice, and it's less expensive than the sleazy motels I couldn't bear to stay in. I'll be arriving on the 24th, even though I'm not sure if I want to go to the concert that night. I only have one ticket, and I don't really feel like going alone. Plus it's up in the Q area, so it might not even be worthwhile.Phil & I will probably go to a museum or two since we don't have to stand in line for the concert.And I have most of the trip to Santa Barbara figured out. We're arriving on the 27th, giving us some time to walk around before we line up (hopefully not that same night) for the concert. I'm not even sure I'm willing to stand in line all day to get to the barrier this time. But we do have pit tickets so maybe we'll just stand at the back and just listen rather than watch the concert... my only option since I'm short.

2+2=5 and 'dumb motherfuckers'

Hi all!So, a couple of days ago I posted a recording of 2+2=5 from Manchester (June 29, 2008) which captures thom screaming "Dumb motherfuckers" - the video provoked a rapidly growing 3-page discussion touching upon society, censorship, authority, cursing and several other issues that could (+ SHOULD) be of interest to a lot of people.So if you are curious, you can view the video and discussion here (or just click on 2+2=5 on my videos)THX, THOM!and thx to Acid Reign for taping

Fête du cinéma

That's the new thing these days : every once in a while, so-called journalists claim on television that the Internet is killing the music / film industry && / || all kinds of values & counterfeits and such idiocies. Especially when the government wants to give the police's rights to sniff the network to private companies. It's getting fucked up in France (country's infrastructures getting old, corruption, control of media, reinforcement of police, nationalism, racism, personnality cult for the head of state...) but IT businness is really on the top of the pile. Maybe because i'm interested. Hum.Well, obviously, the Internet didn't chain me to my chair and stop me from going to a few theatres these past days. For those who don't know, the Fête du cinéma lasts three days (four this year in Lille) and allows you to watch movies for 2€ once you've bought a ticket with a regular price. So the more movies, the cheaper the average price. I managed to watch movies for 3€50 each, which is an honest price I think.I did not watch that many movies - still got work to go to, but hopefully I'm only 97 days from my first holidays since mid March 2007 - but that's more than I did since the beginning of the year. Not because I download, but because the movies I have heard about don't seem to be worth my time.Anyway, let's try and review what I watched :- In Bruges : didn't want to watch this one, beacuse I'm not really fond of the movies Farell plays in. But, hey, it was cheap, so I went. And got a pleasent surprise, the movie is actually good ! Good story, humorous moments, alcôves...And it's about Brugges ! I went there a few times when I was younger ; indeed there's not much to do...a Flamish thing ? Oh, and, yeah, had been a long time since I had last heard an Irish accent... Lovely.- Waltz with Bachir : I went to see this one knowing that I didn't know enough (does that make sense ?). It's about Lebanon and I know next to nothing about the country (except very very few anecdotes about the destruction of this or that village a few summers ago where people I knew at uni had been living). I had heard about the Sabra and Shatila massacre, especially in that IAM song (J'aurais pu croire), but nothing really precise. I was determined though. Ouch. Ignorance hurts. Beautiful moment. Impressive animation work, good choice of colours as well. Seems that animation movies are better and better, and more diversified as well (not that I complain about Miyazaki, I love his movies, but since not that long ago he was the only one who had his movies in French theatres). And, yeah, the narration is great. So I'm gonna look for information about Lebanese wars, and massacres... hmmm, interesting stuff.- 21 : Well.... Don't pay for this one. Don't watch it if you have better stuff to do. Not really good. Didn't match my maths standards. Hardly worth the price I paid. They don't really talk about the theories ! I was interested !! I wanted to feel back at uni, when teachers were talking about all these big stuff with Greek letters I still don't know how to pronounce and cost of functions and ...All that O n² 2^n stuff. So...Pfff. Disappointed. I'll stick to π.- Diary of the Dead : Good laugh on that one. Quite the opposite feeling that I got with Waltz with Bachir, because, this time, I got all the touchstones ! All these links to other movies, to videogames (especially the first Resident Evil with the manor)... But the movie itself was a bit disappointing. We are all blazé of horror movies, aren't we ? There was some cool stuff, sure, but a bit predictable.But maybe that was Romero's point ? We all know horror movies, all has been done already, so, by doing predictable things he might want us to see how indifferent to others' suffering we've become ? Maybe the theatre wasn't the best place to watch the movie, but on a laptop ? And then again, we get the Youtube-like format to access "information" - for the movie is supposed to be reflecting the truth and informing people - to fit in what he condemns in the movie. If so, this is great. But, anyway, made me laugh, so that's good (I needed it).So, the fête du Cinéma was a good vintage as I say... Apart from going out to watch movies instead of watching the Euro football crap with my flatmate, I had a nice time socialising (doesn't happen often). Spoke Spanish with tourists, struggled to find a bar that wasn't closed at 1.00 AM, had a very, very, very nice & refreshing draft Tripel Karmeliet (my favourite beer these days, yum ! ), all of this in pleasant company and under a wonderful summer sky that is gone today. A shame. Tonight will be dedicated to sleep, then.

Ok, I'm not sure what to write actually, and it feels weird because I'm using Elkie's computer with a different keyboard (some of the symbols are completely misplaced). But I still feel like I HAVE to write something...Wow, where to begin? Yesterday was THE BEST DAY of my entire life! But oh, now I'm scared if I start writing it'll end up like a novel or something! Wouldn't want that. And I can feel it all just queuing up inside me ready to explode any minute. My head is really crowded right now, and at the same time it sort of feels empty, because it's all crammed up. Know what i mean?Anyway, i arrived in Amsterdam late at night the day before the show, Elkie was at the airport and picked me up. When I got to her place I was sort of amazed because she has this really cool flat filled with nice stuff. And Eek, her cat, was lovely. Ok, gotta keep it short now Mimmi. Hm, but that's impossible!!!So the next day I met Gabi, Clay and Prav. They were all really nice and sweet and introduced me to the beautiful world of RADIOHEAD concerts. And I felt so stupid because I had to ask all these questions. And still, I made lots of mistakes (some of them were even really rude of me, but that wasn't my intention at all, I'm sorry Mr S...) The show was extreeeemmmmly, like really really really really, like high up in the clouds...like... just fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!! FABULOUS.And Clay did the nicest thing, he asked me if I wanted to stand where he was standing, extremely front row, almost right in the middle! I just hope I wasn't blocking his view... Because he had to stand right behind me. The coolest thing was watching Elkie dancing and digging to the sound of JUST, she was really into it and the energy spread like fire!Just so I don't forget: I want to thank ELKIE, GABI, CLAY and PRAV, you all took really good care of me and made my day perfect! THANK YOU!Hehe, this is getting sort of long, and it feels like I've only just started... What to do? What to do?There is just no end to it... not to forget: I got to help Elkie out a little at her business too, that was fun and exciting. And if Elkie is reading this, please tell Alfredo that I had a really nice time and that he taught me a lot of interesting stuff that made me want to learn more...But now I will just stop here and continue some other day, ah, I need to take a shower. And my flight back is tomorrow! Doei!Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!best regards / Mimmi

Loneliness

Loneliness.by Marion Webb-De SistoNobody has me,Nobody shares me,I am complete within myself.Nobody heals me,Nobody hurts me,I am immune within myself.Nobody sees me,Nobody hears me,Yet I exist within myself.Nobody shuns me,Nobody seeks me,So here I hide within myself.Nobody thinks me,Nobody feels me,I am unique within myself.Nobody gives me,Nobody takes me,I am untouched within myself.Nobody knows me,Nobody greets me,Unrecognized within myself.Nobody hates me,Nobody loves me,Therefore, I grieve within myself.Nobody lives me,Nobody is me,I am alone within myself.

Слово властно над всеми. Ощущение удовольствия от похвалы в свой адрес, чувство досады и вины от критиканства, все эти ощущения- следствие нашей речи. Слова вершат наши судьбы: возносят на вершину успеха или сбрасывают вниз. Но мы часто поступаем со словами рассеяно и бездумно.Мудрецы говорили, что произнося ненужные слова, мы попусту расходуем энергию, которую могли бы направить в нужное русло- на совершение благих поступков, например.Польза критики неоспорима. В мире слухов и хорошо проплаченного PR слова, казалось бы утрачивают своё значение, и люди с недоверием относятся ко многим заявлениям. Как быть молодому сценаристу, если он не способен адекватно отразить нападки акул и просто толпы недовольных, хотя здоровая критика и необходима ему как воздух?Я не знаю ответ на этот вопрос . Зато я знаю одну замечательную мантру.Но прежде чем я открою её, не могли бы вы ответить, на сколько нам необходимы все эти комментарии, предположения, жёлтые новости, и дибловатая реклама? Это море информации. Которое способно поглотить любого, лавина слов, из которой выбраться, отыскав единственно нужную и полезную тебе мысль способен не каждый? А ещё : насколько нам необходимы футбольные комментаторы?Как бы там ни было, вот та волшебная мантра, открытая мне Учителем Слова Устного и Письменного в одной из последних трансовых сессий. Учитель заметил, что прежде, чем высказаться, нелишне задать себе три вопроса: Правда ли это? Хорошо ли это? Необходимо ли это? И назвал эти вопросы тремя вратами речи.Не очень похоже на мантру? Но не стоит забывать, что даже обычные слова содержат в себе вибрирующую силу. Любая речь, особенно та, что преисполнена сильного чувства, создаёт волны энергии, которые, пронизывая наше тело, устремляются наружу. Сливаясь с вибрацией мира, они создают атмосферу, парящую вокруг нас.Слова, произносимые или возникающие в уме, постоянно меняют реальность, приводя в движение вибрацию мира. Именно поэтому выбор того, что произнести, а о чём умолчать не должен быть случаен. По мере того, как энергии будут становиться чище, мы обретём способность тщательнее подбирать слова, не жертвуя при этом спонтанностью и выразительностью своей речи.Но ближе к делу, у меня есть вполне конкретное предложение. Давайте включим в образовательную программу школы футбольных комментаторов(или как там называется то место , где их учат этому ремеслу), мою замечательную мантру.Пусть ребята перед каждым матчем расстелют резиновый коврик, сядут на него в любую удобную позу и сложат руки в намасте и зададут себе эти три вопроса.И пусть Виктора Гусева не пускают комментировать футбол, пока он не пройдёт этот ритуал трижды. В конце концов, почему всегда когда он комментирует, мы сливаем?!!

Strange business, strange place.

I never wanted to learn to be a writer\ critic\ journalist \ .Moreover it always seem to me that this people never became good writers. Nevertheless Chuck Palahniuk still study in a evening school for writers and Irvine Welsh when he was a guest of one Moscow philological faculty noted: “Go to the street and find the characters there. You never learn writing in this stuffy lecture hall!”
All of us learn in practice. Sooner or later become a moment when we have something to tell, to tell a story. at long last how many times I would wake up at night and would find in darkness, kicking my cat, paper to write dreams.
Today I have seen very strange dream, it was wonderful. There was a place witch I can describe only using film by Tarkovsky “Stalker”. Place looked like The Zone. It was warm and smells like putrefaction. An idea was appeared: people come here to die. Can you imagine, they go down the long road in search of death?
There was life too. People whose way of life was like “not fixed address” :burnt houses and clothes, crushed plates and dishes, outcast…The most strange thing was that there was nicely and calmly at heart though I do not like such places. Thought was appear: here great film can be created.
By the way if this place exists in real, I would create film.
I will study film director. It will be another profession witch I do not want to start studying. As well as musician, sound producing…
There is one film school invited me, but problem…they want me to write for them some reviews for a films.
What can I write? Who can I attack or to whom sing an ode song? The first can be counted by a million, second becomes progressively smaller. If this were so…I can write critical essay like Hunter Thompson…
In general, if someone of you some day wrote a critical essay I would like to take some lessons…only I you have enough cynicism.

Я никогда не хотела учиться быть писателем\ журналистом \

критиком. Более того, мне всегда казалось , что хороших

писателей из таких вот не получиться. Всё-таки Чак палланик

до сих пор ходит в вечернюю школу для писателей, а Ирвин

Уэлш, будучигостем столичного фил-фака, заментил: " Идите на

улицу и ищите образы там. Вы никогда не научитесь писать в

душных аудиториях."

Все мы учимся на практике, и , рано или поздно у каждого

наступает момент, когда есть что рассказать.В конце концов,

сколько можно просыпаться по ночам, и, наступая в темноте на

кошку, искать блокнот, что бы записать свои сны.?

А мне сегодня снился очень странный сон, замечательный.Эо

было место, описать которое возможно только при помощи

кинообразов "Сталкера" Тарковского, место, похожее на Зону.

Туда я спускалась очень долго.Было жарко и попахивало

гнильцой. Мысль, которая возникла: сюда приходят, что бы

здесь умереть. Подумать только! Они сами просто спускаются

сюда, по той же дороге в поисках смерти.

Были там и живые. Их образ жизни и быт были похожи на быт
