Immokalee Indian Day
By Paula Cassels
IMMOKALEE —
On Sept. 26, canoe races
kicked off the start of the
Immokalee Indian Day
Celebration.
At 3:30 p.m., as the
kids returned from school,
the fun began as the community splashed right in to the
canoe races.
After the races were
finished, the community celebration continued at the softball field with the greased pig
contest. Competitors had to
tie a string around any part of
the greased pig’s body to
win.
The most popular
activity, the Archery event,
drew a crowd that was very
knowledgeable and competitive. The contest lasted a long
time and most of the contestants scored very high.
Meanwhile, the turtle races were taking place.
Most of the kids enjoyed this
competition, many brought
their own turtles and their

Learning, Cooking, Enjoying: Culture Day
By Paula Cassels
BRIGHTON — On Sept.20,
community members were hard at work,
cooking and cleaning the catch of the day
for the Brighton Culture Day.
Behind the rodeo arena, Sheila
Jones and Delaney Osceola were learning
how to clean curlew.
Over an open fire, Jenny Snow
was cooking turtles, garfish and biscuits.
While cooking, Jenny said that
Seminoles eat all kinds of turtles. She
tapped them on the side and back to check
if they were done. When they crumbled or
the back of the turtle shell cracked open,
the turtle was ready to eat.

Chamber Of Commerce Honors Mitchell Cypress
CLEWISTON — On Sept.
17, the 54th Annual Clewiston
Chamber of Commerce Dinner held
a Social Time Dinner.
Delivering the Keynote
Address was Mitchell Cypress,
President/Acting Chairman for the
Seminole Tribe of Florida.
Mitchell was introduced by
Diane Buster and Sally Tommie,
who presented him as a leader who
has shown great perseverance and
determination.
During his address,
Mitchell spoke of the ingredients
needed to be a leader of the 2,800
plus tribe that has gaming and
tobacco revenues as its income generators.
Mitchell also clarified some
misconceptions about Seminoles.
One in particular was the
myth that Seminoles do not pay
taxes. Cypress explained to all in
attendance that each Seminole pays
every sort of tax, except property
taxes because the Tribe’s reservations are on trust land.
He also noted the Tribe’s
efforts to establish positive ties and
communication with the towns that
surround its five reservations.
Mitchell's address earned a
round of applause from all of the
attendees, who represent many of
the businesses in the community.
After Cypress’s speech,
President Nan Schmiedeberg presented him with a small sword as a
token of the Chamber of
Commerce’s appreciation.
Congratulations to Mitchell
on his recognition by the Clewiston
Chamber of Commerce for his leadership role in the Seminole Tribe.
BRIGHTON — On Sept. 27,
the Brighton Indian Day celebration
began just before the crack of dawn with
sign-ups for the gigging contest and 5-K
walk-run event.
The 5-K event started at 6:00
a.m. in the field office parking lot. The
competitors walked down to the driving
range and back, leisure walkers were welcome.
Other Tribal members participated in the gigging contest. The rules for
the gigging contest were to bank fish
only, and fishing was limited to the reservation in limited areas. The competition
was graded on the biggest and longest Gar
or Mudfish.
Polly and Billy Walker, who
caught a three-pound garfish, had the
biggest catch until Kevin Tommie came
back in with a four-pound garfish.
At 10:00 a.m., the Brighton
Reservation Indian Day events began with
the Seniors Citizen Art Contest.
The Brighton seniors have been
attending art painting classes every
Thursday at 12:30 p.m., a special display
of colorful hand-painted pictures and
wood carvings were set up under a chickee pavilion.

In Loving Memory Of Track Flames Sue
Seminole Tribune:
My name is Ayze Jo Henry. I am
fifteen years old and already have experienced alot of pain and triumph. This year
in June, my number one horse was struck
by lightning. Her name was Track Flames
Sue. She was only seven years old and
just entering her prime. The Florida State
NBHA finals was the same weekend she
died. I didn't feel like going because a
part of me died with her. I don't think I've
ever been so attached to anything before,
not even my mom and dad. My dad talked
me into going because I have never been
so discouraged in my life.
If it wasn't for my family, I
would have missed out on something I
was never able to do. My mom’s horse,
Boo The Band, won the Youth 4-D. I still
think Sue had a part in it. When other
girls challenged the 1-D time, Sue probably kicked down the barrel they happened
to be turning. Therefore, no one beat the
1-D time. I had a long wait before the
Youth competition was over. When I
heard my name on the loudspeaker as
Youth 4-D State Champion, the first thing
I said was, "thank you Sue."
I still miss her, she was my baby.
The only "significant other" as you would
say. I have her three year old, full blooded
sister, Rain. Rain is a very good pupil
when I am riding and teaching her. Next
year, she'll be able to rope off of, and be
an outstanding barrel horse.
Recently, Nauthkee and I traveled to Tulsa, Oklahoma to the Drysdales
Supershow. Again, the Youth race was
very close. The 1-D time was 15.579 and
my time was 17.570. 1 was nine thousandths of a second too fast. The horse
who ran that time was Boo. My other
horse, Speedy, the replacement for Sue,
won fourth in the 4-D. Speedy and I have
to do alot of bonding. To me she is a rude,
obnoxious horse, to the other horses, she
is the Boss Mare.
Nauthkee rode Bridgette, the

Editor,
I enjoyed your website very
much. I am organizing our thanksgiving
celebrations at our preschool this year and
we would very much like to give our children a broader view of the native people
of the south.
I am from Scotland and I find it
disturbing that the only time the native
culture in the USA is celebrated is at
thanksgiving and even then the people are
portrayed or 'lumped together' as one people.
I would be very interested in any
easy educational books or even any drawings or photos of your people past and
present which would be suitable for our
little children who are aged 2 -5.
I am hoping to have each class
be a different tribe and would also like to
use any story books available throughout
our school year. Hope you can help,
Thank you,

Hi, I just went to a rodeo that the
Seminole Tribe sponsored in Deland,
Florida 9/28/02. Just wanted you to know
that I thought it was an excellent bull riders rodeo.
It was very organized, the show
and music was excellent. I was so proud
to hear that the Indians sponsored it.

always been interested in the Indians.

Dear Sirs,
I had the privilege to be invited
to play in the Open Women's Division of
the Randolph Clay Memorial Pool
Tournament this weekend.
My name is Ellen Van Buren and
I am a Case Manager for a Crime
Prevention Program in Miami.
Pool is not only my hobby it is
also my passion and I owe the Tribe and
Betty Osceola a debt of gratitude for giving me a venue to compete against other
women who like myself have full time
careers and lives, but still have a desire to
experience one of the freedoms that this
great country affords us.
The freedom to be whoever or
whatever we want to be. I had a great
time and met some of the most open and
friendly people in South Florida. And the
food was great too!!
Looking forward to the next time
the Tribe opens it's arms and it's tournament to women in South Florida like me.
Thank You,
Ellen Van Buren

I spent most of this day shooting different
angles of the scene from Monday. However, I did
get to meet and speak with Will Smith briefly
through his wardrobe person, Robert Matta, who
just happens to be a great friend of Marilyn
McEuen.
I presented Will with two Seminole
Jackets for he and his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith. I
was also lucky enough to meet and speak with
Gabrielle Union.
On Thursday, Sept. 12, 2002
I spent this last day re-shooting scenes
that were rained out on Tuesday. Jada PinkettSmith visited the set and I had a chance to meet
and speak with her briefly. Unfortunately, I did not
have my camera so, no photos with Jada.
Although the 12th was the last day of
filming for the scene our group would be in, the
movie does not wrap until December. So, hopefully, I will be called back for other scenes. It was
quite interesting to see what all is involved in
filming a movie.
The three days of shooting we did only
accounts for approximately 8 to 9 minutes of the
entire movie. Isn't that amazing?!!
On Thursday, Sept. 26,2002...
This was only the second day of filming
for Fast and Furious II, directed by John Singleton
and starring Paul Walker and Tyrese (Vin Diesel
will not be appearing in the sequel).
Today, we shot a scene outside a restaurant in Miami, involving Paul and Tyrese. My Jeep
was also used in the scene! I was called for just
this one day, but the movie will be shooting for the

At dusk, the kids enjoyed an egg toss competition. The raw eggs were amazing. No matter how
far the egg was thrown, when it hit the ground, it didn’t break. Until they tested it on someone’s body.
After the egg-toss, the
axe-throwing event was held for
the adults and seniors only.
While this skillful event was
being held, the egg and spoon
race was held for the kids.
As dark came upon the
softball field and the mosquitoes
came out to eat, everybody was
covered in excitement and sweat
as they started the sack races.
The kids’ race had to be
held twice because the kids were
hopping around so fast this way
and that, that the judges couldn’t
tell who had won.

next 5 months. So, hopefully, I will be called up
again.
Well, I just wanted to share my experience with you, and thank Marilyn McEuen for her
continued help and support. It is such a wonderful
feeling to have someone believe in your talent and
ability and who will go out of their way to do anything to help you achieve your dreams.
After the kids were finished it was time for
the evening’s funniest event, the adult sack race. The
scene was a madhouse with one person carrying
another while hopping with the sagging sack, another
hopping on one foot and people were falling on top
of each other.
It was a great celebration, the Immokalee
Indian Day was sponsored by the Immokalee
Recreation Department.

Healthy Grocery Shopping
By Kenny Bayon, C.PT
It’s the end of another bustling
day. You’re tired, sweaty, smelly and hungry. About the only thing more appealing
than a hot shower is a hearty meal.
Problem: The
refrigerator’s as
bare as the shelves
in an Afghanistan
supermarket, and
the pantry’s serving
as storage space for
your old TV.
Don’t call Domino’s just yet.
We’ve already written about how
to lean out, and now it’s time to learn
about healthy grocery shopping. Join us
for a supermarket tour with Barbara S.
Correll, a registered dietitian for 30 years
and owner of Dietetic Consulting Services
in the Florida area.
Among other things, you’ll learn
how to reduce fat, sugar, sodium and cholesterol in your diet; find great sources of
protein and antioxidants; and better understand nutritional labels.
The dividends: You’ll feel great,
improve your physique, and increase your
life expectancy. Any complaints?
BASIC GUIDELINES
*Above all else, Learn To Read
And Understand Food Labels.
“They have to read the labels or
they just won’t succeed,” Correll attests.
While walking through a Publix in
Hollywood, FL, we discovered many
products, especially those with reduced
fat, are loaded with enough sugar, salt and
preservatives to fill a sand trap: there can
be a huge gap in calories between similarlooking products (from 60 to 140 calories,
for example, for a ½ cup of red pasta
sauce); some are vague about their ingredients; and others don’t even have labels - which means zero chance of us buying
it.
*Avoid foods with high contents
of fat, which can cause heart disease and a
plague of health problems (keep total fat
to less than 20 percent of calories, with
less than 10 percent from saturated);
salt/sodium, which can cause high blood
pressure (3,000-4,000 milligrams daily);
cholesterol, which clogs arteries (200-300
milligrams daily); caffeine, which can
raise blood pressure and cause dehydration; sugar, which often adds unneeded
calories; and nitrates, which are heavily
used in processed and smoked meats and
can cause cancer.
*Among fats, unsaturated are the
lesser evil. The best fats are monounsaturated (canola and olive oils, nuts and avocado), which can lower harmful cholesterol (LDL) levels; followed by polyunsaturated (corn, soybean and sunflower oils;
fish fat). Saturated fats (found in meats;
dairy products; hardened butter and mar-
garine; and coconut, palm and palm kernel oils) raise LDL levels. In recipes, try
using fat substitutes such as apple sauce,
bananas, pureed prunes, fat-free yogurt
and egg whites.
*Determine fat
percentage based on
calories, not weight.
One gram of fat has
nine calories (compared to four calories for a gram of
protein or carbohydrate). So a 200-calorie nutritional bar
with 4 fat grams (4 X 9 = 36 calories) is
18 percent fat.
*Grab foods with high fiber content, such as whole grains, fruits, beans
and other veggies. Fiber has many benefits: It keeps the stomach full so you’ll
tend to eat less; helps regulate blood sugar
levels for maintained energy; fights off
bad cholesterol; and aids in waste elimination. Correll recommends eating 25-35
grams daily.
*Choose a wide variety of foods,
especially from the produce section. Many
fruits and vegetables are loaded with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, which
help fight off body-damaging and diseasecausing free radicals.
As a general rule of fruits and
veggies, Correll says, “The more colorful,
the more nutrition value you’ll get.” Also,
freshly frozen produce can be just as
healthy as that picked off the pile.
*Despite the recent trend toward
low-carbohydrate diets, Correll advocates
balanced nutrition plans. “Moderation in
everything is my golden rule,” she
declares.
To avoid overeating, she suggests
using plastic bags to separate portions.
Correll uses Exchange Lists, available
from the American Diabetes Association
and The American Dietetic Association, to
help establish serving-size guidelines.
*Don’t neglect dairy products.
They are a great source of calcium, which
helps keep bones dense and strong. And
it’s not just women who need to worry
about osteoporosis. “I’m finding more and
more men with calcium problems,”
Correll says.
*Look for cookbooks “that match
what kind of plan they’re on and what
they want to get out of their foods,” advises Correll.
*Never shop for groceries on an
empty stomach, which can lead to impulsive buying of junk food.
*For eating on the greens,
Correll recommends prepackaged foods
such as granola, nutritional (Balance,
Power) or protein bars. Drink water, and
plenty of it -- perhaps a sports drink if
walking the course -- but definitely no
beverages with alcohol or caffeine.
GRAB A SHOPPING CART
(Note: This isn’t a conclusive
grocery list. We just offer tips; you make
the choices. Also, all food listed are not
necessarily the equivalent of those in similar categories under different sections.
For instance, a “bad” cereal like granola
can be more nutritious than a “better”
snack like low-fat cookies.)
DELI
Bad: Processed meats such as
salami, liverwurst, bologna; mayonnaiseor oil-based salads; heavy cheeses such as
American, cheddar and Swiss.
Better: Lighter lunch meats such
as turkey or chicken breast, and lean roast
beef and ham; reduced-fat cheeses (thinly
sliced).
Best: Grilled chicken breast (skin
and fat pulled); freshly-carved turkey.
BAKERY
Bad: Pies, cakes, cookies, doughnuts and muffins (unless specified as lowfat).
Better: Most breads, including
bagels and pitas.
Best: Whole-grain -- and therefore high-fiber -- breads.
DAIRY
Bad: High-fat products such as
whole milk, butter, margarine, cream and
the cheeses.
Better: One percent milk;
reduced-fat cheeses; butter/margarine with
the keywords “No Trans Fatty Acids” and
“No Hydrogenated Oils.”
Best: Skim milk; fat-free yogurt
(sugarless if looking to cut calories); fatfree cheeses (if you can bare the taste).
CEREALS, GRAINS and PASTAS
Bad: Beef- and cheese-filled
pasta (ravioli, shells, etc.); regular granola.
Better: Grits; white rice; durum
semolina pasta; couscous; low-fat cereal.
Best: Brown rice (more fibrous
than white); plain oatmeal; whole wheat
or spinach pasta; wheat germ; sugar-free
bran cereals.
MEATS and PROTEINS
Bad: Sausages; hot dogs; ribs
bacon; ham; oysters (can have a high bacteria content, says Correll); chicken wings
and thighs.
Better: Lean beef (eye of round,
filet mignon, and tenderloin); lean ground
turkey; drumsticks; pork tenderloins
(“Pork is a much leaner meat than it used
to be,” Correll says, “but I don’t consider
it ‘the other white meat.’”).
Best: Skinless chicken/turkey
breasts and tenderloins; eggs (pull out
yokes to eliminate fat and cholesterol); all
fish (if canned, make sure packed in water
and not oil); seafood (shrimp, lobster,
mussels, etc.); .
PRODUCE
Bad: None
Better: Canned fruit (light syrup);
iceberg lettuce.
Best: Dark green, leafy veggies
(spinach, romaine); broccoli; cabbage;
sweet potatoes; tomatoes; carrots; beans,
lentils and peas (high in fiber and protein;
can be used as meat substitutes); oranges;
guavas; strawberries; watermelon;
papayas; mangoes; bananas; apples.
BEVERAGES
Bad: Beer, liquor and non-red
wine; regular sodas.
Better: Red wine (one glass daily
is good for the heart); decaffeinated diet
sodas, tea and coffee; sports drinks (but
only during or after strenuous physical
activity).
Best: Water; fresh juices; green
tea (high in antioxidants).
SNACKS
Bad: Cookies; cup cakes; fried
chips; chocolate.
Better: Reduced-fat peanut butter; mints; jelly beans; licorice; sucking
candies; low-fat cookies and baked goods.
Best: Sugarless gum; pretzels
(preferably unsalted); rice cakes; baked or
fat-free chips; low-fat granola bars; butterless popcorn (season with herbs and fatfree condiments); dried fruits.
CONDIMENTS
Bad: Regular mayonnaise; highfat dressings; Alfredo sauce (Correll calls
it “heart attack on a plate.”)
Better: Salsa; ketchup; honey;
low-fat versions of all sauces, dressings
and marinades (dilute with water to make
even healthier).
Best: Vinegar; mustard; curry
powder; apple sauce (no sugar added);
lemon and lime juice; pepper; garlic;
spices and herbs.
COOKING AGENTS
Bad: Saturated fats (listed under
Guidelines)
Better: Unsaturated fats (listed
under Guidelines)
Best: Water; cooking wine;
chicken and veggie broths; low-fat and sodium soups.
FROZEN
Bad: Take your pick -- pizzas,
Salisbury steak, burritos, cheese sticks, ice
cream...
Better: Low-fat, low-sodium
meals (Correll likes Healthy Choice); fatfree ice cream, yogurt or sherbet.
Best: Bagged dinners with lean
meat, starch and vegetables; veggie burgers; reduced-sugar, fat-free desserts.

Leasing Versus Buying An Automobile
By Ken Goosens
[Editor’s note. Ken Goosens works for
the Tribe in Housing Finance and counsels Tribal members on loans and their
credit. The opinions he expresses are
his own.]
We have all seen the advertisements touting leasing. For some surprisingly low cost per month, you can drive
some surprisingly expensive or luxurious
car.
For the same price you pay to
buy some putt-putt, you can have this
prestigious automobile you really would
prefer but feared you could never afford.
And automobile salespeople are trained
how to give a comparative analysis that
invariably shows that leasing is advantageous.
But are these leasing offers good
deals for you?
Leasing is seldom the lowest cost
option. The lowest cost option for most
people is to buy a vehicle with a topnotch record of reliability that gets good
gasoline mileage, service the car faithfully
and routinely (oil changes, checkups,
waxing), and keep the car for at least five
years and preferably 10 years or more.
Most of the bad mistakes people
make in deciding whether to buy or lease
concern leasing. The most common and
serious mistake people make is to underestimate the true cost of a lease.
Do not fall into the trap of thinking that a lease is better simply because it
has the lowest monthly payments. You
have to look at the total cost of the lease,
and not just the regular payments per
month.
Leases are long-term contracts
with special risks. For one thing, you are
Brighton
Continued from page 1
At 11:00 a.m., the judging
began for the Rez Car Show. Debbie
Carter's 1990 steel blue Silverado was
looking good and hard to beat.
No Indian Day celebration
would be complete without a Pumpkin
Bread Contest. This was a women only
contest.
The basic ingredients were provided (pumpkin, grease, flour and
sugar). The participants had to provide
their own special ingredients and the
cooking was done at the culture ground
over an open fire.
Judging was based on the
bread’s overall appearance, taste and
consistency.
The Archery contest had a little
trouble getting started. They tried to
obligated to make all the payments for the
full period of the lease, which usually is 2
to 4 years.
If your circumstances change and
you don’t want or can’t afford the lease,
you can’t simply turn the auto back in
early. You will incur substantial additional
charges for “breaking” the lease, which
you may not be able to afford and did not
plan on making.
If you think that the great thing
about a lease is that you can simply turn
the car in after the full lease period at no
additional cost, you have made the second
most common mistake. The lease contract
stipulates several ways you may be liable
for special fees upon return of the auto,
somewhat like charges you may incur
after you vacate a rental apartment or
house.
Leases cap the mileage, typically
at 10,000 to 15,000 miles per year.
Exceed that and you will be assessed a
surcharge per additional mile that could
easily be several thousand dollars.
If you commute to a job, or you
live on the more rural reservations or regularly make trips to reservations to see
family, you can easily drive 20,000 miles
each year. You may specify higher
mileage limits in your lease contract, but
will have to make higher monthly payments.
Most leases call for you to be
responsible for repairs and maintenance
during the lease. While newer cars have
lower costs, you may still have substantial
give everyone a practice round, but the
rain started coming down and stopped
the event.
They set up in the rodeo arena,
and as soon as they were ready, the rain
stopped. Everyone was provided with
longbows, the big winner was Sidney
Gore.
In the pole peeling contest,
there were men and women’s categories.
In the women’s category, it was
a close race. The contest was a timed
event, which Ethel Gopher peeled in to
top speed for first place.
Inside the rodeo arena, there
were Box and Gopher Turtle Races. At
first, there was one gold turtle. The next
thing you know, all of the turtles were
gold, except for one, which had red
polka dots on it’s back.
If you thought the fumes from
the paint would keep the turtles from
walking straight, think again. Brighton

Do
expenses, especially if the manufacturer’s
warranty expires. You are also liable for
damages as well as unusual or excessive
wear on the auto when you turn it in.
Finally, you must pay for automobile insurance and if the car is totaled,
you may find yourself liable for thousands
of dollars on a car you are longer able to
drive.
Leasing cars also has disadvantages for your credit history. In the world
of credit, leases are simply rents – perpetual debts that never build any wealth or
assets.
On a loan for a mortgage, debts
on an automobile you are buying will stop
counting against your borrowing limit
whenever the auto will be paid off within
10 months.
However, a lease debt will continue to count against you no matter how
soon the lease will be over, because the
expectation is that you will need an auto
and will have to lease again. In addition,
leased autos do not count as an asset on a
loan application, whereas autos you are
buying do.
Despite the many risks, leasing
does make good sense in a few circumstances. If you are self-employed and primarily or exclusively use a vehicle for
business purposes, leasing may have a
significant advantage due to benefits on
tax returns concerning expenses and
depreciation.
If you must have an auto and
really cannot afford to buy, a lease with
little or nothing down and lower monthly
payments may be all you can get.
For the rest of us, owning an
auto builds our credit, establishes an asset,
and has the best chance of minimizing
long-term expenses.
ed his box turtle gold from head to toe,
and it ran all the way to the finish line
for first place.
The last contest was the Horse
Race, which took place behind the culture grounds.
This race had men and women
divisions, enter at your own risk and
participants had to ride bareback.
In the first stretch, Alex Johns
was in the lead, until his horse jumped
into a large water puddle, leaving Johns
in the mud.
Koty Brugh and Sidney Gore
passed him by, running neck and neck
on the back stretch for a tie win.
In the women’s division,
Emma Browd kept a short lead in front
of the rest of the riders throughout the
race.

Poems
Happy Birthday
Good-bye
In loving memory of Tiffany Doctor and
Wesley Frank
And so it comes just as it is
A day no longer here.
Through my trembling fingers
Tips the memories of the years
I wave farewell to all our dreams.
I will forget you never
I wonder if our crazy dreams
Will stay with you forever.
But, as I cry in pain of loosing
My dear and such good friends.
I will not close the book and
Say “Farewell, this is the end.”
For good-byes create swift Hellos.
Days from now you’ll see that
Through it hurts to say good-bye
Your friend I’ll always be.
Respectfully,
Mallory Osceola
Someone should have taught him
I went to a birthday party
But I remembered what you said
You told me not to drink at all
So I had a sprite instead
I felt proud of myself
The way you said I would
That I didn’t choose to drink and drive,
Though some friends said I
should.
I know I made a healthy choice and
Your advice to me was right
As the party finally ended,
And the kids drove out of sight.
I got into my own car,
Never knowing what was coming,
Something I expected least.
Now I’m lying on the pavement
I can hear the police say
“The kid that caused this wreck
was drunk.”
His voice seems far away
My own blood is all around me
As I try hard not to cry
I can hear the paramedic say,
“This girl is going to die.”
I’m sure the guy had no idea
While he was flying high,
Because he chose to drink and
drive
That I would have to die.
So why do people do it,
Knowing that it ruins lives?
But now the pain is cutting me
Like a hundred stabbing knives
Tell my brothers and sisters not
to be afraid,
Tell daddy to be brave,
And when I go to heaven to put
“Daddy’s Girl” on my grave.
Someone should have taught him
That it’s wrong to drink and
drive
Maybe if his mom and dad had,
I’d still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter
I’m really getting scared
These are my final moments
And I’m so unprepared
I wish that you could hold me, Mom
As I lie here and die.
I wish that I could say
I love you and good-bye.
Happy Birthday to Daija Baxley
