For relaxed East-West relations.

An imposing time machine full of character, developed with the highest watchmaking passion: the Patravi TravelTec is a chronograph with chronometer certification, which displays three time zones simultaneously. Simply and comfortably thanks to the patented monopusher at 10 o’clock, the travel direction – eastwards or westwards – can be preselected and individual time zones jump across. The mechanism developed for this is integrated in the highly complex case and remains visible through a side window. Carl F. Bucherer’s philosophy of the intelligent, useful functions and mechanisms could not have been implemented more perfectly. www.carl-f-bucherer.com

v FROM THE PUBLISHER

Renewed Confidence ne of the most highly coveted timepieces these days is the $525,000 RM 027 Tourbillon by Swiss watchmaker Richard Mille—there’s a waiting list for it. Earlier this year, Porsche sold out of its $245,000 911 GT2 RS sports cars—and has more than 2,000 advance orders for the hybrid 918 Spyder due in two years. Expected price tag: $630,000-plus.

Vacation home sales have climbed steadily since 2009 (up nearly 40 percent in Palm Beach, according to one industry report), high-end art sales have doubled at the Sotheby’s and Christie’s auction houses, and the market for $1 million-plus yachts has the National Marine Manufacturers Association working overtime.

In the wake of the economic uncertainty of the past few years, these are signs that cannot be overlooked. With reports and figures such as these, it is evident that the economic upswing is a reality, and that it’s here to stay.

Leading retailers have tapped into consumers’ increased sense of optimism and, seeing the possibilities that await them in this atmosphere of revitalized spending, they’re bringing new products and services to market. And these new launches are being noticed by individuals who have both the disposable income and the appetite to acquire the best of the best.

We’ve seen it for ourselves—and you probably have, too, just by browsing through recent issues of Palm Beach Illustrated. Our magazines have been noticeably bigger lately, and that’s due in no small part to the advertisers who are clamoring to capture the attention of affluent readers. Starting last September, we saw luxury purveyors snapping up pages in the magazine and offerings on our website, palmbeach illustrated.com, in ever-increasing numbers. They want to leverage the unique opportunity we offer to reach an audience that’s extremely receptive to the messages advertisers have to share.

Most of us do not define luxury by what’s big and expensive and conspicuously consumed; it always has been a reflection of quality, rarity, personality and value. Savvy affluent consumers always have focused their interests on products and experiences that are worth the investment, rather than spending money for the sake of spending money.

This, of course, means the opportunity for local and national retailers is clear: Whether you are selling an $80,000 Black Trail battery-powered bicycle or an experience that is priceless, chances are the audience is there, equipped and eager to buy.

Social Season Redux N

LILA PHOTO

robert nelson

ow that the proverbial dust has settled from a busy social season and we have time to reflect before doing it all again, we find ourselves wanting to relive a few of the most special moments. That’s why this issue is devoted to the season past, and all the people and events that made it so memorable.

By all accounts, it’s been an incredible year. From ushering in 2011 with a bang to the season’s wrap-up with the centennial celebrations in April, there has been much to enjoy (too much, in some cases, with as many as six parties on a single evening). And we certainly did our best to enjoy it—and cover it—all. Chances are, regardless of which party you attended, you ran into a Palm Beach Illustrated staffer. In addition to our regular social coverage, which appears in every issue, this year also marked the launch of Party Pics on palm beachillustrated.com. Our online editor, Stephen Brown, was very much on the scene, shooting the hottest events and their glamorous attendees, and posting the photos on our website within 24 hours. The coverage will continue next season, so be sure to sign up for our Party Pics newsletter, which resumes in November, to be the first to see who was out and about.

And who doesn’t love to look at photos of people and parties? With that in mind, we present an entire issue full of society photos, carefully culled from thousands of images submitted by Palm Beach’s top social photographers. In “Dressed to Impress” (page 52), we highlight some (though by no means all) of our favorite well-dressed Palm Beachers, who always manage to step out in style whether they are wearing ball gowns or simple shifts. “Gen Next” (page 60) is a tribute to upand-comers who are bringing a vibrant new energy to the party scene, while “Leading Lights” (page 58) is our tip of the hat to the community’s most influential social leaders and philanthropists. We end the section with “Memorable Moments,” a yearbook of sorts highlighting the best of 2011. The images say it all; see for yourself on page 66.

As this issue came together, we certainly had fun reliving these moments. I hope you will, too.

forward Questions

3Q

v YANNI

Greek composer and self-taught pianist Yanni has been serenading an international audience with his symphonic music for more than 30 years. The Grammy-nominated musician, who has released more than a dozen albums, recently concluded a 40-plus U.S. city tour. While still composing and touring, the Manalapan resident has expanded his resume with the launch of Yanni-Wake Entertainment in 2009, a company that signs on young talent and composes music for films.

n How do you keep your music fresh and constantly evolving?

I believe that I’m able to keep music evolving because of my inspiration—life. The experiences I am having with the people I interact with gives me the character and frame of reference by which I compose. I feel this is the best time of my life so far. I hope that has come out in my new album. n Do you have a secret talent?

I don’t know if it is secret but I love to swim and scuba dive. I was born and raised in Greece and love the water; it has never left me. Maybe not well known is my passion for keeping up with the events happening around the world. I am a world news addict and always curious to understand more about how society is evolving. n You’ve collaborated with many artists. Is there anyone you have not worked with but would like to?

I’ve been fortunate to work with artists from many genres of music. There are a few special opportunities that we are working on that would be fantastic. Stay tuned.

Artists often need more than one outlet, and Percy Steinhart is a never-ending source of creative genius. The founder of Stubbs & Wootton moved his Palm Beach store into a new location and tagged the new spot by graffiting ‘stubbs’ across the back outdoor wall. An avid collector of Cuban art, Steinhart also has converted his former location into a gallery space called ArtXpace Projects. The opening exhibition featured Cuban artist Rafael Domenech.

Like a lollypop, but with cake, CakePopology’s cake pops are a creative and fun way to celebrate a holiday, a new baby or the bride and groom with many different flavor and design options available. Each pop is specially shaped, dipped in chocolate and decorated by hand, and with ingredients like Madagascar bourbon vanilla extract and gourmet chocolate, and flavors like strawberry champagne, chocolate fudge and red velvet, we dare you to eat just one. For those with dietary concerns, there are sugar- and gluten-free and vegan cakes, and chocolate available.

First spotted by Columbus on his final voyage to the New World in 1503, the Cayman Islands are still prime territory for exploration. Nowadays, travelers hungry for adventure or serious R&R are the ones setting their sights on this British Overseas Territory, hoping for a new spin on the staid Caribbean vacation. They find it at Cotton Tree, a tiny, all-cottage resort that opened in spring 2009 on the northern tip of the West Bay neighborhood of Grand Cayman, the largest of the territory’s three islands.

Cotton Tree is an all-cottage resort.

Each cottage is well equipped for comfort, relaxation and luxury.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

An understated counterpoint to other, larger resorts in the Caymans, Cotton Tree is comprised of four sherbet-colored cottages, each named after a type of tree that grows on the property. A maximum of just 18 guests can stay at any given time. Although they may be few, Cotton Tree’s cottages compete with—and even surpass—other Caribbean accommodations in terms of creature comforts and decor.

The stainless steel fridge in the spacious kitchen is fully stocked—most notably with an ample supply of Carib, the local brew—and the pantry filled with favorite breakfast foods. In the adjoining light-filled living area, a Wii gaming console and a large, flatscreen television await friendly competition. Each spacious, pastel-painted bedroom is attached to a private full bath stocked with Elemis products.

Heather Lockington, founder and owner, says she came up with the Cotton Tree concept to fill a void that existed on the island with a place where guests could enjoy a top-shelf travel experience with the comforts of their own home.

The resort, though, is so much better than home.

After all, in addition to home-style amenities, Cotton Tree offers more options for outdoor recreation and island sightseeing than one can easily fit into a weeklong stay. On the water, guests can go parasailing, or dive off Seven Mile, Cemetery and West Bay beaches.

The resort’s concierge staff can arrange private boat or luxury yacht charters and guided sea kayaking and snorkeling tours, including a stop at the famous Stingray City.

On land, leisurely options include golf, horseback riding and complimentary bicycle rentals. Private transportation can be set up for guests who wish to venture slightly farther to George Town, the Caymans’ capital and one of the Caribbean’s most popular cruise ports. For guests who enjoy cerebral pursuits, Cotton Tree staff can arrange private on-site art lessons by local company Articulate, or a group cooking class with Small Occasions by Rosie.

Of course, no beach vacation would be complete without top-notch spa treatments. Cotton Tree calls on Spa Platinum to provide guests with select massage services in the resort’s lone alfresco cabana, which overlooks the beach from a thicket of sea grape trees.

Lockington also aimed to make gastronomy, among her own passions, one of Cotton Tree’s draws. Cottages are outfitted with the most updated appliances

by KitchenAid and equipped to prepare a complete gourmet feast. Local catering company Misé en Place is on hand to prepare customized multicourse meals, which guests can enjoy in the comfort of their cottage or in the resort’s open-air, beachfront pavilion.

In-house sommelier Harvey Setterfield selects a variety of wines to complement Cotton Tree meals and stays at the ready to suggest Champagne for celebrations.

While dining at Cotton Tree is impeccable, the resort is within easy reach of a number of worthy local restaurants as well: Osetra Bay, for sophisticated seafood dishes and cocktails in a chic, outdoor setting; Ristorante Pappagallo, which fuses Italian and Caribbean cuisines;

Clockwise from left: a spa hut; the outdoor pool; a gazebo overlooking the beach; dining/living area in a cottage.

and Morgan’s Harbour and Calypso Grill, which offer laid-back seaside settings for casual lunches.

No matter how you choose to while away your days, one thing is certain: With Cotton Tree as your base for a Grand Cayman getaway, there really is no place like home. caymancottontree.com u

MR. BOND, YOUR NEW BENTLEY AWAITS The world’s most famous secret agent gets the keys to Bentley’s refreshed Continental GT.

BY HOWARD WALKER

40

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Delve into your dog-eared copies of Ian Fleming’s Casino Royale or Live and Let Die and you’ll see that his suave master spy, James Bond, didn’t always pilot a sleek, sexy Aston Martin.

Like the proper Englishman he was, he drove a Bentley.

According to Fleming, 007’s Bentley was a battleship gray 1933 convertible with a supercharged 4.5-liter engine that he bought used. Probably out of the London Times’ classifieds.

While the silver screen 007 will always, in my mind, be joined at the hip with an Aston—Sean Connery getting shaken and stirred in that silver 1964 DB5 in Goldfinger was the best—it’s nice to see that Bond, at least in book form, is back in a Bentley.

The latest James Bond romp—Carte Blanche, by American mystery writer Jeffery Deaver and commissioned by the Ian Fleming estate—has 007 behind the wheel of the very latest 2012 Bentley Continental GT. This is the newly face-lifted version of Bentley’s most successful model ever—since its debut in 2003, Bentley has sold more than 22,000. For 2012, it comes with edgier styling, more power for outrunning the bad guys, less weight, more gadgets and even more class. In other words, the perfect car for Bond.

Naturally, in the interests of in-depth journalistic research, I felt it my duty to call up Bentley’s equivalent of Miss Moneypenny and request that a new $192,495 Continental be delivered pronto.

At a quick glance, this latest version appears little changed from the original. Same gorgeous, swoopy coupe profile, same hulking shoulders over the rear wheels, same quad-light, mesh grille face.

But everything has, in fact, changed. The creases are sharper, the lines tauter and more defined, and the complete body made more aerody-

namic. If you’re especially eagle-eyed, you might notice that the GT’s trademark grille is more upright and the main headlights bigger in size. But you probably won’t.

Open those massive barn doors and you’ll see brand new, more supportive seats with to-die-for hand-stitched quilted leather covers. They’ve also been reshaped at the back to give a much-needed extra couple of inches of rear-seat kneeroom.

The big interior change, however, comes with the new eight-inch touchscreen that delivers sharper, crisper map imagery, and touch controls for everything from heating and cooling, to the GT’s new 30-gig hard drive and the optional, ear-bleeding 11-speaker Naim audiophile system.

Pop the hood—or better still, peruse the spec sheet—and you’ll discover that the Continental’s flex-fuel 6-liter W-12 powerplant receives an extra 15 horsepower to take the tally up to a whopping 567 horsepower. More useful in daily driving is the additional 37 pound-feet of muscle, taking the torque factor up to a stump-uprooting 516. The space shuttle had less power.

And in the development process, the Jenny Craigs at Bentley HQ rightly put the 5,200-pound GT on a crash diet, shedding a full 143 pounds in the process. Add to that new software for the 6-speed automatic that halves shift times to a blink-of-an-eye 200 milliseconds, and this new Conti is livelier and more agile than ever.

I could tell you those fewer pounds and extra horseys transform the performance of this new Bentley. They don’t. Fact is the old Continental GT was always ferociously fast and brutally powerful.

This new one compresses you back in the seat like a Learjet on takeoff, just as the original did.

It still, for me, defies physics that this XL-sized coupe can catapult itself toward the horizon so efficiently and elegantly. For the record, it now lunges from standstill to 60 mph in a supercar-like 4.4 seconds, and doesn’t quit till its speedometer needle is kissing the 198 mph mark.

But the car definitely feels more agile. And a lot of this has to do with the painstaking suspension tweaking that has sharpened the handling without compromising the car’s magic carpet ride quality.

That, and the new 40:60 torque split with the GT’s all-wheel drive system that reduces the previous car’s at-the-limit understeer.

The Continental GT has always been a magical car to drive, and this latest version simply confirms the Bentley’s status as the world’s greatest Grand Tourer.

Here are the keys to your new Bentley, Mr. Bond. You only live twice, so enjoy. u palmbeachillustrated.com | june 2011 41

THE NEW UNIFORM The navy blazer and khaki pants “uniform” remains a staple in the Palm Beach man’s wardrobe, but many stylish guys are reinterpreting the classic look with a modern twist. Prints are always chic, especially when combined with classic touches like a bow tie or cuffed white shirt.

Adding a brooch is not for the faint of heart, but it does look fabulous (yes, Chris Benz, we’re talking to you). A slim pant updates the standard khaki, and Stubbs slippers are still—and forever—de rigueur.

RARE BIRD With all the fashionable women in Palm Beach, it’s a challenge to stand out in the crowd—unless, of course, you’re Iris Apfel.

Apfel, a fashion icon with a style all her own, has been the subject of an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which showcased her eclectic style and outrageous wardrobe. Famous for her oversized glasses, bold jewelry (a line of which she is designing herself) and ethnic accents, Apfel is a fixture on Vanity Fair’s International Best Dressed list, and a headturner at every Palm Beach event.

Philanthropy is synonymous with Palm Beach. Raising funds—and friends—is a sport on the island, as well as points north, south and west. In our communities, hundreds of millions are raised for local nonprofits every year—thanks to the influential people who make it happen. In Palm Beach, the list includes powerhouse fundraisers like Michele Kessler, Patrick Park, Tommy Quick and Nancy Brinker. In the north end, the list includes golf great Jack Nicklaus and wife Barbara, and Amanda Schumacher and her Tree of Life Foundation. In Wellington, Mark and Katherine Bellissimo have raised millions—in just two years— with their Great Charity Challenge. Here, we salute some of the regulars on the charity circuit­, as well as some newcomers who already are shaking things up.

This year marked the passing of a legend. Dame Celia Lipton Farris was one of the greatest philanthropists Palm Beach has ever known—not to mention one of its most illustrious and beloved residents. Farris, a British singer and actress, is dearly missed, but her spirit lives on through her contributions to, among others, local chapters of American Cancer Society and Children’s Home Society, and the Victor W. Farris Medical Building, which she erected in memory of her husband.

history repeats itself

Madeira, the wine favored by our nation’s Founding Fathers, returns to glory.

Martin Herbst

By Mark Spivak

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

According to legend, it was used to toast the Declaration of Independence. Roughly one quarter of Madeira produced was consumed by American colonists, and the wine became one of the catalysts of the Revolutionary War when John Hancock’s ship, Liberty, was seized by the British in Boston Harbor with a supply of Madeira aboard.

Madeira once again is becoming popular in the United States, after a long period of overplanting and declining quality. Named for the Portuguese island 600 miles southwest of Lisbon where it was created, Madeira is amazingly versatile. Most con-

sumers think of it as a sweet wine, but there are four major types, designated by grape variety and level of sweetness: Sercial (0.5-1.5 percent), Verdelho (1.5-2.5 percent), Bual (2.5-3.5 percent) and Malmsey (3.5-6.5 percent). Sercial and Verdelho are enjoyable as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to a meal, Bual is a true dessert wine, and Malmsey is a dessert in itself.

The current style of Madeira originated in the days when wine was fortified with grape spirits for a long ocean journey, during which time it was usually subjected to high temperatures and oxidation.

Today, this process is duplicated in a facility known as the estufagem, where the wine is heated to temperatures as high as 130 degrees for a period of 90 days. As a result, Madeira is very stable and practically indestructible, and is able to retain its character for as long as one year after the bottle is opened.

The reputation of Madeira suffered during the 1970s and 1980s due to the addition of high-yielding grapes with little character, such as Complexa and Tinta Negra Mole. Since 1993, the European Union has mandated that a bottle must contain at least 85 percent of a grape variety to carry that designation. Today, it’s safe to assume that any wine without a varietal designation, or one with a generic label such as Rainwater, is made from the inferior Tinta Negra Mole.

After a period of several centuries when Madeira was the darling of food writers and the English upper crust, it is experiencing a resurgence in this country. Much of the credit goes to The Rare Wine

Co. of Sonoma, which partnered with the Madeira lodge Vinhos Barbeito to offer a series of Special Reserves for less than $50 per bottle. Wine merchant Bartholomew Broadbent also has taken an active role in presenting a range of styles to the public.

Superstar chef Mario Batali created a sensation in New York in 2009 when he paired a Sercial with a dish of wild boar, demonstrating how unique and versatile these wines can be.

Bottles labeled as reserve must be aged at least five years, the minimum for a wine containing one of the four major grape varieties. Special reserves are

current

aged at least a decade, and generally made without exposure to artificial heat. A colheita contains wine from a single vintage but usually is less aged than a true vintage, which must be at least 20 years old.

There’s no doubt that vintage Madeira sits at the very top of the pyramid. The oldest wines tend to be the product of a solera system, blended and aged in the manner of some Spanish sherries. These wines are not inexpensive—expect to pay $400$500 for a hundred-year-old vintage Madeira, but be comforted by the fact that you’ll be drinking a glorious piece of history. u

A quirky atmosphere and a menu that changes daily make Jade Kitchen a funky, fresh choice for dinner or lunch. By MARK SPIVAK

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Like a spring flower tenaciously poking up through the frost, the Northwood neighborhood of West Palm Beach continues to emerge. The area’s renaissance has been aided by a handful of interesting restaurants that have appeared in the past few years.

Chef Wayne Devers and his family founded Jade Kitchen early in 2008 as a catering operation. Before long, customers were congregating at sidewalk tables, and Devers opened an inside dining room in mid-2009.

With an unfinished floor, walls of knotty pine, sparse white tables and modern artwork, it would not seem out of place in Manhattan’s West Village.

Devers changes his menu daily, but a core of popular dishes remains constant. His culinary style defies categorization, although it contains influences from the Caribbean, Asia, Spain and regional American cooking. He worked as a private chef for nearly a decade before opening Jade, and absorbed a great deal in his frequent travels. His touch is light, yet his dishes are packed with flavor.

A recent lunch got off to a splendid start with a special of sautéed wild mushrooms. Fresh shiitakes, porcinis, enoki and hen of the woods were tossed with a splash of sherry and a touch of garlic. This was followed by deconstructed fish tacos, with the slaw and green chili sauce served separately from the nicely charred tilapia.

In the evenings, the offerings tend to be more interesting and ambitious. Yellowtail tuna (technically not tuna, but amberjack) is diced into a tartare and presented in crispy tacquitos with slices of avocado and microgreens ($12). Even better are one of the daily specials: Wellfleet oysters from Cape Cod ($16), brilliantly fresh and briny, delicately breaded and accompanied by a creamy dipping sauce enhanced with green onions and lemon juice. No bread is served at Jade, but don’t miss the restaurant’s signature popovers ($3)—oversized, fluffy and accompanied by a slab of strawberry butter.

Whole branzino ($26) is one of those dishes that has found a home on Devers’ menu, and no won

der. The fish is first boned and then seared in a very hot pan, resulting in crisp skin and moist, flavorful meat. A dish of rigitini ($19) is dressed with fresh peas and pieces of butternut squash, accented with gamey chunks of sausage that contrast nicely with a velvety cream sauce.

When the time comes for dessert, you follow your server to a table near the entrance, which is laden with retro delights: New York cheesecake, lemon curd tart, carrot cupcakes, huge meringues waiting to be smothered with fresh berries. Marshmallows covered in chocolate ($3) are a satisfying way to conclude, and chocolate-covered strawberries are available as well.

The short wine list, containing perhaps three dozen selections, runs the gamut from California to France, Italy, Spain and Argentina. The wines are carefully chosen, artisanal and non-commercial. A bottle of La Cana Albarino 2009 ($41) is a crisp and flavorful accompaniment to the inventive food.

Despite the quirky atmosphere, service is friendly and personalized. The servers are intimately familiar with the menu, and will offer explanations and recommendations on request. Above all, this is a family restaurant, with Katherine Devers supervising the front of the house, daughter Hailey helping out, and the chef emerging from the kitchen periodically to socialize. They are all committed to delivering a firstclass dining experience, and it’s very hard to escape from having one. u

Don’t fool yourself… APPEARANCE MATTERS! THE PROCEDURE: “tummy tuck” – Bafitis Integrated Liposculpture Abdominoplasty (“BILA”)

BEFORE

AFTER

By Dr. Harold Bafitis Appearance Does Matter! They say that your eyes are the window to your soul, but what about your tummy and torso?

•

Nothing is as bad, and negative to your overall appearance and ego, than an out-of-proportion torso and lower abdomen. Other people are unfortunately drawn to the defect rather than to the inner beauty of the individual.

Compounding this problem is usually an inability to keep your abdomen flat, especially after a full meal. A lower abdominal bulge that will not go away, even after endless sit-ups. There is usually loose skin with significant stretch marks, especially after pregnancy or previous surgery. Often there is excess fat in the flanks and back. Even a compounding abdominal incisional hernia can be part of this “tummy” experience so common to women – even showing up in men.

Often the gluteal area has lost its fullness; and now there is a “flat bottom” with a full rounded tummy!

WHY CIRCUMFERENTIAL TIGHTENING WORKS Usually removing loose skin alone cannot solve the problems stated above. To achieve results as seen in these dramatic preop and postop photos, newer and advanced, integrated procedures are employed. Often a “beer belly” as seen above can be completely corrected in a special modified surgery. Often, tightening abdominal muscles will provide internal support that will last a lifetime. This can be achieved by correcting any hernias that are present, as well as lipoplasty of the anterior and posterior hip rolls, low back and the entire abdomen. The circumferential contouring can create a dramatic improvement. The last step will be creating a more natural oval shape to the umbilicus (belly button) which will enhance a natural contour of the abdomen. With new fat grafting techniques, a fuller, more youthful gluteal (derriere) can be created that lasts!

CHALLENGES Dr. Bafitis has taken this surgery to a new level with his “BILA” procedure. By combining liposculpture, fat grafting, circumferential tightening, and abdominoplasty, this procedure can now be done with only IV sedation, or in selected patients monitored “awake” sedation.

Don’t trust the most difficult cosmetic procedure to someone less than an expert in the field.

THE FUTURE

By early summer Bafitis will be offering stem cell therapy. This process is FDA approved and only deals with the patient’s own fat. Harvested fat from patient’s bodies can be sent out and within two hours a stem cell and growth factor mixture can be returned. This will provide a patient’s own stem cells to be used for long lasting skin rejuvenation, and for anti-inflammatory therapy i.e. arthritic joints etc. A true medical breakthrough finally approved in this country.

Pablo rivera

Estella J. Fransbergen is one with the elements of earth, wind and fire. The artist kneads raku clay into long strips, then stacks them on top of the next to create a rounded, spiral shell. The molded, feminine torso is air-dried and then baked in a kiln. Next, it’s coated in glaze and placed into a fire pit for hours, activating the chemicals in the glaze to create a mix of colors. Fransbergen dresses in head-to-toe protective gear and practically steps into the fire to retrieve the piece, placing it in a trash can full of water to smother the flaming art. She cools the sculpture and embellishes it with wires covered in tree branches, shells and stones.

Her work is available at Studio E Gallery in Palm Beach Gardens, June 1-30. estellafransbergen. com —Lola ThÊlin
