The router sending the Hello with the _ _ _ becomes the DR
Highest OSPF priority
If two or more routers tie with the highest priority setting, the router sending the Hello with the _ _ wins
Highest RID
The routers that creates each _ also has the responsibility to re-flood the _ every #_ minutes (the default), even if no changes occur.
LSA, 30
OSPF uses the term _ _ _ to describe a router that sits in both areas.
Area Border Router
