Sustainable Compromises A Yurt, a Straw Bale House, and Ecological Living【電子書籍】[ Alan Boye ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Living simply isn’t always simple. When Alan Boye first lived in sustainable housing, he was young, idealistic, and not much susceptible to compromiseーuntil rattlesnakes, black widow spiders, and loneliness drove him out of the utilities-free yurt he’d built in New Mexico. Thirty-five years later, he decided to try again. This time, with an idealism tempered by experience and practical considerations, Boye and his wife constructed an off-the-grid, energy-efficient, straw bale house in Vermont.</p> <p><em>Sustainable Compromises</em> chronicles these two remarkable attempts to live simply in two disparate American eras. Writing with hard-won authority and humor, Boye takes up the “how-to” practicalities of “building green,” from finances to nuts and bolts to strains on friends and family. With <em>Walden</em> as a historical and philosophical touchstone and his own experience as a practical guide, he also explores the ethical and environmental concerns that have framed such undertakings from Thoreau’s day to our own. A firsthand account of the pleasures and pitfalls of living simply, his book is a deeply informed and engaging reflection on what sustainability really meansーin personal, communal, ethical, and environmental terms.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,345円

Public Budgeting: The Compromises Among the Sound Budgeting Principles in Contingency Funding - Federal Money for the War on Terror, the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars and Overseas Contingency Operations【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. The purpose of this thesis is to observe the budgeting practices of the government in funding contingency operations to determine to what extent a policy-maker's actions result in compromises among the sound public budgeting principles. To accomplish the objective, this thesis evaluates the evolution of budgeting practices used in funding overseas contingency operations from 2001 to 2016 and determines the level of application of the sound budgeting principles to the budgeting practices. To illustrate the application of use, this thesis first defines the principles of sound public budgeting and maps the differing budgeting practices to the characteristics along a relative spectrum of high, medium, and low to determine if there are discernible patterns. A framework does not exist for Congress to fund for contingencies; policy-makers must therefore use budgeting practices that are less than ideal. Since the attacks of 9/11, the United States has funded contingency operations through processes different from normal budgeting. Over the last 15 years, those budgeting practices have evolved in a manner that questions to what extent funding for contingency operations is consistent with the principles of sound public budgeting. An analysis shows that compromises are made among the principles to adequately fund for contingency operations.</p> <p>Chapter I provides an overview, the background information of this thesis, its purpose, and the scope of the research. Chapter II reviews contingency budgeting in the United States, defines the principles of sound public budgeting, and describes what is supposed to happen during the budgeting process both in a normal situation and in the case of an emergency. Chapter III reviews historical events from FY01 to FY16 focusing on the significant changes in budgeting practices and the motivations behind those changes. Chapter IV provides an evaluation of contingency budgeting practices by using the principles of sound public budgeting and presents a comparative analysis and discussion of the extent to which contingency operations are budgeted for and appropriated. Chapter V provides a conclusion to the extent that budgeting practices have evolved over the years because of compromises made to the sound budgeting principles. It also offers a recommendation for budgeting for contingencies while maintaining integrity in the budgeting system using the principles of sound budgeting, based on the lessons learned between 2001 and 2016.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 849円

A Few Good Gays The Gendered Compromises behind Military Inclusion【電子書籍】[ Cati Connell ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The US military has done an about-face on gender and sexuality policy over the last decade, ending Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, restrictions on women in combat, and transgender exclusion. Contrary to expectations, servicemembers have largely welcomed cisgender LGB individualsーyet they continue to vociferously resist trans inclusion and the presence of women on the front lines. In the minds of many, the embodied “deficiencies” of cisgender women and trans people of all genders puts othersーand indeed, the nationーat risk.</p> <p>In this book, Cati Connell identifies the homonormative bargain that underwrites these uneven patterns of receptionーa bargain that comes with significant concessions, upholding and even exacerbating race, class, and gender inequality in the pursuit of sexual equality. In this handshake deal, even the widespread support for open LGB service is highly conditional, revocable upon violation of the bargain. Despite the promise of inclusivity, in practice, the military has made room only for a “few good gays,” to the exclusion of all others.</p> <p>But should equal access be the goal? How did we get from there to here? And where do we go next? In analyzing inclusion as a social movement aspiration, Connell shows that its steep price is exacted through the continued abjection of queered Others, both at home and abroad.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,400円

Moral Compromises in Mazatl?n: Public Life in Urban Mexico【電子書籍】[ Tracy Duvall ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book is a wide-ranging ethnography of Mazatl?n, a mid-sized city and tourist destination on Mexico's Pacific coast. The text focuses on diverse aspects of Mazatlecos' lives, especially in public realms. Readers will finish with an analytical understanding of life in Mazatl?n and a good practical sense of it, too ? knowledge that should apply, in some degree, to many other parts of Mexico and, indeed, to much of Spanish-speaking America.</p> <p>Rife with concrete observations of local life ? including beaches, bakeries, beauty contests, Carnaval, and corruption ? this monograph demonstrates that Mazatlecos expected each other to mix contradictory moral frameworks. The author compares different classes, neighborhoods, and social domains to develop a sophisticated analysis of everyday life in this urban setting. The main themes are how people in Mazatl?n define and combine modernity and tradition, the character of various social distinctions among Mazatlecos, and the relationship between individual experience and institutionalized expectations.</p> <p>This volume is not a tourist guide or traveler's tale. It addresses several types of university-level reader: tourists and foreign residents who want to learn more about Mazatl?n; Mexicans who value different perspectives on their lives; academics interested in this region or in a holistic treatment of diverse issues, including space, modernity, history, gender, sexuality, politics, globalization, organization, diversity, hierarchy, identity, and discourse; and anthropologists-in-training looking for a relatively transparent account of fieldwork.</p> <p>TRACY DUVALL studied Mexico for two decades. Having earned an MA in history and a PhD in anthropology, he has taught at universities in the United States, Mexico, and Indonesia and has conducted research in those countries and East Africa. His fieldwork in Mazatl?n took place over several years and included lengthy stays in 1996 and 1997.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 450円

Heroes and Scoundrels Five Decades of Flashpoints, Conflicts and Compromises Supporting Press Freedom in Latin America【電子書籍】[ Edward Seaton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The past five decades have witnessed a flourishing of democracy and press freedom in Latin America. When Edward Seaton began his crusade in the 1970s on behalf of journalists and newspapers throughout the region, 80 percent of the countries were without either. Today most countries have an independent press and credible elections.</p> <p>While the change reflects a worldwide wave, the individuals portrayed here were in their countries the locomotives of change. These courageous, modern-thinking journalistic leaders risked in many cases their businesses and even their lives to tell truth about government and society. They faced Iberian traditions that made their accomplishments even more impressive.</p> <p>Organized in this book by geographic regions, their histories are related one country at a time. The people in these stories are heroes who helped build their emerging democracies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,200円

Compromises in Democracy【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book provides an interdisciplinary examination of the relationship between compromise and democracy. Compromises have played a significant role in our representative democracies and yet the nature of the relationship between compromise and democracy has generally raised tricky theoretical questions and generated ambiguous evaluations. This book focuses on the relationship between compromise and liberal democracies from both a cultural and institutional perspective and addresses new and lesser-explored aspects of the relationship. It explores a variety of topics including: compromise and in-commensurable values, antagonist paradigms, compromise and majority decisions, compromise and publicity, compromise and post-conflict societies, compromise and anti-system political parties, and compromise and the understanding of political representation. <em>Compromises in Democracy</em> offers an original perspective on the topic by assembling contributions from the fields of philosophy, sociology, political theory, political science and history of ideas.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,154円

Evaluating the Superintendent The Process of Collaborative Compromises and Critical Considerations【電子書籍】[ Jarett Powers ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>As local elections and other occurrences can transform a board and its direction, having a performance review cycle to ensure that all board members understand the philosophy undergirding the superintendent’s evaluation is critical to ensuring that all members of the governing board are operating within a similar framework and purpose as they approach the superintendent’s evaluation cycle. Acknowledging that superintendents have the potential to grow in their professional capacity, revisiting the philosophical underpinnings of the evaluation over time ensures that the process does not remain static. Each chapter within this text is designed to develop the basis for understanding the superintendent’s evaluation process to create opportunities for an open and continuous dialogue between superintendents and school boards. This book will support those charged with leading and governing public schools to implement effective evaluations for both school boards and superintendents that provide an objective and summative collection of the superintendent’s annual performance and his/her relative impact on targeted success within a given school year.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,900円

Roma is the child of the destiny. But she works on what she gets and changes it to suit her ends! To her inhibitions and hesitations are alien words. She is bold, beautiful and very sexy.She goes for the non achievable and grabs it with the power of her 'Bulbul'. What's 'Bulbul? Read the novel to find it out.<br /> Excerpts:-<br /> He looked at me and said, “We’ll do it the doggie way!”<br /> I nodded. This man certainly loved dogs. He seemed to be quite enamored of their love making. To excite him more, I went to him on all fours! He came from behind. Catching me by my back, he thrust in. He really filled you up! This time, thank God, he was gentle. Gentle, not like an ordinary man. But gentle according to his standard. With Ranjit, nothing was normal! He slipped one hand over my shoulder and gripped it tightly and with the other hand he massaged and squeezed my breasts. With my head down, I could clearly see the ACT being performed. I stretched my hand and grabbed his balls.</p> <p>He said dressing up quickly. I couldn’t get up that quickly. My body was in pain. It was then that I understood why aunt Vidya popped up the pain killers after she returned back from her ‘encounters’ with Ranjit. I would need them too!<br /> Slowly I dressed up in the different set of clothes that I had brought. He had also dressed up by then. He was sitting on that iron box. I walked up to him and put my hands around his neck. Then bending down I kissed on his forehead.<br /> “We need to meet again Ranjit”, I smiled at him.<br /> “We will Roma, we will”, he said smiling back at me and kissed me on my cheeks. It was quite evident from his actions, that I had him hooked on to me.<br /> We parted after that. I came out of the room. I went directly to my home from the temple. I had difficulty walking that day. My gait could have told you that. But what a man he was! Alas! He had to die.</p> <p>The dinner was quiet affair. I took a light dinner. After the dinner I went to aunt Vidya’s room for sleeping. After a few minutes, aunt Vidya also came in her room. She closed the door behind her and latched it properly. With a smile on her face she whispered.<br /> Rubbing her hands on her breasts, she said, “It’s been too long Roma!”<br /> “Aunty you seem to be in some mood”, I said smiling back at her. “You know what aunty, I too miss you ‘lick-er’ much!”<br /> She went around the room drawing up the heavy curtains on the windows. Having done that she moved to the life-size mirror in the room and stood before it. She lifted her gown and taking it out, threw it on the floor. Then she untied her long hair. With a jerk of her head, it fell loose over her back. She looked quite sultry in her black net and lace two piece, unable to hold her assets. Her milky white breasts looked all set to pop out of her bra. Her net panty showed more than they concealed. Silhouetted glimpse of her ‘Bulbul’ and its roots could be had. She looked at me and then placing her hands at the back strap of her bra, called me smiling.<br /> “Help me Roma.”</p> <p>Driven by the destiny, I had hitched my stars to his wagon! I had one more and a higher shoulder to stand on. The more, the merrier. I needed them to stare the world in its face. Not that I had dumped Amarpreet or deceived him. I kept loving him and he kept making love to me! He would always remain a dear friend. Close to my heart. It was just that I had to choose a more useful man for the next phase of my life. And, if that useful man happened to be his father, what could I do! Aunt Vidya, I am thinking, planning and acting from my ‘Bulbul’, eh!<br /> In politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies. Only permanent interests!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 365円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Drawing on expert works, early political and government records, and personal correspondence, Fabio Leone examines the most commonly cited explanations of the unlikely and puzzling democratization of India. He concludes that the creation of Indian democracy is best understood when assessing the combination of capacities and behaviors of the Indian political leadership.

Wetland Weeds Causes, Cures and Compromises【電子書籍】[ Nick Romanowski ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
This comprehensive guide to wetland weeds covers both native and introduced species, ranging from minor or localised environmental problems to those that should not be tolerated in any situation. The author takes a pragmatic approach to weed control, recognising that some weeds may not be possible to eradicate, and emphasising the need to assess the extent and future potential of any infestation before taking action. Weed control should be planned in the context of the overall management goals for any type of wetland, the types of habitat weeds provide or overrun, and whether they can be replaced successfully with more appropriate plants. A range of strategies for controlling wetland weeds are considered, from containment actions to prevent the development of a soil seed bank to physical removal, and biological approaches from biocontrol to shading, overplanting and use of turbidity. The widespread use of chemical controls is also discussed, with the warning that these are often only a short-term cure and can cause more harm to aquatic ecosystems than the weeds they are holding at bay. More than 130 species of established weeds are included with information on their origins, nutrient responses, environmental effects, habitat values, prospects for containment or eradication, and even culinary uses. Other sections look at native plants as weeds, including a number of species of uncertain origins, and potential weeds still being legally sold through the aquarium and nursery trades.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,876円

The Reuniting of Europe Promises, Negotiations and Compromises【電子書籍】[ Jos? I. Torreblanca ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This title was first published in 2001: In 1989, central and Eastern European countries broke free form the Soviet Union and looked upon the European Community to support their 'return to Europe'. Some years later, leaders of the European Community, meeting in Copenhagen in June 1993, endorsed for the first time the membership aspirations of the recently democratized countries of Central and Eastern Europe. This insightful text examines the negotiations, debates, tensions and contradictions behind the process of approximation between the two halves of Europe, both within the EC itself as well as between the EC and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The extensive consultation of unpublished internal documents, and a theoretically relevant and well-written analysis, ensures that this book is an indispensable resource for students and researchers of EC/EU relations with Central and Eastern Europe.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,984円

Free Will and Predestination in Islamic Thought Theoretical Compromises in the Works of Avicenna, al-Ghazali and Ibn 'Arabi【電子書籍】[ Maria De Cillis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The subject of "human free-will" versus "divine predestination" is one of the most contentious topics in classical Islamic thought. By focusing on a theme of central importance to any philosophy of religion, and to Islam in particular, this book offers a critical study of the intellectual contributions offered to this discourse by three key medieval Islamic thinkers: Avicenna, al-Gh?z?l? and Ibn ?Arab?.</p> <p>Through investigation of primary sources, <em>Free Will and Predestination in Islamic Thought</em> establishes the historical, political and intellectual circumstances which prompted Avicenna, al-Gh?z?l? and Ibn ?Arab?’s attempts at harmonization. By analysing the theoretical and linguistic ‘techniques’ which were employed to convey these endeavours, this book demonstrates that the three individuals were committed to compromise between philosophical, theological and mystical outlooks.</p> <p>Arguing that the three scholars’ treatments of the so-called <em>qa?? wa’l-qadar</em> (decree and destiny) and <em>ikhtiy?r</em> (free-will) issues were innovative, influential and fundamentally more complex than hitherto recognized, this book contributes to a fuller understanding of Islamic intellectual history and culture and will be useful to researchers interested in Islamic Studies, Religion and Islamic Mysticism.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,545円

New South African Review 2 New paths, old compromises?【電子書籍】[ William Attwell ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>An explanation of the New Growth Plan and alternatives to neo-liberal and capitalist development in South Africa</p> <p>In this second volume of the New South African Review, the New Growth Path adopted by the South African government in 2010 provides the basis for a dialogue about whether 'decent work' is the best solution to South Africa's problems of low economic growth and high unemployment. There are investigations into rising inequality against the backdrop of the failings of Black Economic Empowerment; 'greening the economy', with emphasis on biofuels; the crisis of acid mine drainage on the Witwatersrand; possibilities for participatory forms of government; civil society activism; transformation of the print media and the SABC; the crisis in child care in public hospitals; the relationship between the police and a township community; the problems related to the absence of legislation to govern the powers of traditional authorities over land allocation; and assessments of the state of opposition political parties and the ANC Alliance. Asking whether the New Growth Plan reflects a set of new policies or an attempt to re-dress old (com)promises in new clothes, this volume brings together different voices in debate about possibilities for alternatives to neo-liberal and capitalist development in South Africa.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,973円

Gendered Compromises Political Cultures and the State in Chile, 1920-1950【電子書籍】[ Karin Alejandra Rosemblatt ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>With this book, Karin Rosemblatt presents a gendered history of the politics and political compromise that emerged in Chile during the 1930s and 1940s, when reformist popular-front coalitions held power. While other scholars have focused on the economic realignments and novel political pacts that characterized Chilean politics during this era, Rosemblatt explores how gender helped shape Chile's evolving national identity.</p> <p>Rosemblatt examines how and why the aims of feminists, socialists, labor activists, social workers, physicians, and political leaders converged around a shared gender ideology. Tracing the complex negotiations surrounding the implementation of new labor, health, and welfare policies, she shows that professionals in health and welfare agencies sought to regulate gender and sexuality within the working class and to consolidate the male-led nuclear family as the basis of societal stability. Leftists collaborated in these efforts because they felt that strong family bonds would generate a sense of class belonging and help unify the Left, while feminists perceived male familial responsibility as beneficial for women. Diverse actors within civil society thus reworked the norms of masculinity and femininity developed by state agencies and political leaders--even as others challenged those ideals.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,405円

On Compromise and Rotten Compromises【電子書籍】[ Avishai Margalit ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>When is political compromise acceptable--and when is it fundamentally rotten, something we should never accept, come what may? What if a rotten compromise is politically necessary? Compromise is a great political virtue, especially for the sake of peace. But, as Avishai Margalit argues, there are moral limits to acceptable compromise even for peace. But just what are those limits? At what point does peace secured with compromise become unjust? Focusing attention on vitally important questions that have received surprisingly little attention, Margalit argues that we should be concerned not only with what makes a just war, but also with what kind of compromise allows for a just peace.</p> <p>Examining a wide range of examples, including the Munich Agreement, the Yalta Conference, and Arab-Israeli peace negotiations, Margalit provides a searching examination of the nature of political compromise in its various forms. Combining philosophy, politics, and history, and written in a vivid and accessible style, <em>On Compromise and Rotten Compromises</em> is full of surprising new insights about war, peace, justice, and sectarianism.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,237円

Hitler's Compromises Coercion and Consensus in Nazi Germany【電子書籍】[ Nathan Stoltzfus ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<div>History has focused on Hitler’s use of charisma and terror, asserting that the dictator made few concessions to maintain power. Nathan Stoltzfus, the award-winning author of <I>Resistance of Heart: Intermarriage and the Rosenstrasse Protest in Germany, </I>challenges this notion, assessing the surprisingly frequent tactical compromises Hitler made in order to preempt hostility and win the German people’s complete fealty.<BR> ?<BR> As part of his strategy to secure a “1,000-year Reich,” Hitler sought to convince the German people to believe in Nazism so they would perpetuate it permanently and actively shun those who were out of step with society. When widespread public dissent occurred at homeーwhich most often happened when policies conflicted with popular traditions or encroached on private lifeーHitler made careful calculations and acted strategically to maintain his popular image. Extending from the 1920s to the regime’s collapse, this revealing history makes a powerful and original argument that will inspire a major rethinking of Hitler’s rule.</div>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,274円

Information Security Science Measuring the Vulnerability to Data Compromises【電子書籍】[ Carl Young ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Information Security Science: Measuring the Vulnerability to Data Compromises</em> provides the scientific background and analytic techniques to understand and measure the risk associated with information security threats. This is not a traditional IT security book since it includes methods of information compromise that are not typically addressed in textbooks or journals.</p> <p>In particular, it explores the physical nature of information security risk, and in so doing exposes subtle, yet revealing, connections between information security, physical security, information technology, and information theory. This book is also a practical risk management guide, as it explains the fundamental scientific principles that are directly relevant to information security, specifies a structured methodology to evaluate a host of threats and attack vectors, identifies unique metrics that point to root causes of technology risk, and enables estimates of the effectiveness of risk mitigation.</p> <p>This book is the definitive reference for scientists and engineers with no background in security, and is ideal for security analysts and practitioners who lack scientific training. Importantly, it provides security professionals with the tools to prioritize information security controls and thereby develop cost-effective risk management strategies.</p> <ul> <li>Specifies the analytic and scientific methods necessary to estimate the vulnerability to information loss for a spectrum of threats and attack vectors</li> <li>Represents a unique treatment of the nexus between physical and information security that includes risk analyses of IT device emanations, visible information, audible information, physical information assets, and virtualized IT environments</li> <li>Identifies metrics that point to the root cause of information technology risk and thereby assist security professionals in developing risk management strategies</li> <li>Analyzes numerous threat scenarios and specifies countermeasures based on derived quantitative metrics</li> <li>Provides chapter introductions and end-of-chapter summaries to enhance the reader’s experience and facilitate an appreciation for key concepts</li> </ul>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,916円
