Mercer IMO is way better to control sense he doesnt move like if he is Hulk (Heller is human size Hulk IMO).
Mercer has much more mobility and acrobatic animations while Heller's main focus is just jumping super long and just being a brute strength.
But, I love Prototype series considering its the only open world "supernatural" character I know that makes you feel like you are on top of the world when you play it.
I agree.
The only things I like about P2 is the magnificent color palette when you are low on health you get this black and white with strong colors like the cinematics, I love that!
Heller's super long jump is awesome too, reminds me of Morpheus in Matrix were he says to Neo "free your mind" and he leaps like a mad man.
And the melee feels more tighter with the powers, the red trails looks nice.
But all in all, Mercer is pure badass in this department, and seeing him in cutscene its just wrong!
All I want now as a "sorry" is to make Mercer skin as a DLC to everyone, since he is in Radnet edition.
I do love Prototype 2, but its just that Heller isnt as quick and acrobatic and lean looking badass like Mercer.
Give me Mercer as DLC and I will be happy lol
Only thing that bugs me is the fact that the framerate tends to drop significantly during cutscenes.
Posted by YarostYeah, I was thinking the same thing, Those Mo effers should scatter and run like hell. The game is fun though.
It's really sad how all the NPCs are oblivious to the freaky sh*t you pull next to them. Hello ?? He just consumed someone but you prefer to keep analysing samples. Hello ?? That dude just leaped and flew in front of you ?? Etc...

A worker at the Blue Ridge Detention Center is recovering this evening after being shocked on the job.
It happened around 12 p.m. when the man was atop a ladder, and fell eight feet after coming in contact with the wire and getting shocked.
Albemarle County emergency crews say a man was seriously hurt. No one else was hurt. Power at the Blue Ridge Detention Center was not affected.

Sedgwick County firefighters are going to be working closely with sheriff's deputies on the Fourth of July to help with a new fireworks ordinance.
This year it will be legal to shoot off fireworks in Sedgwick County. It has been illegal for 30 years, but recently county commissioners voted to change the ordinance.
Fire Marshal Tim Millspah said there will be six firefighters out during the holiday weekend to make sure everyone is safe and not using illegal fireworks.
Any fireworks bought in Kansas are legal to shoot off. Millspah says no bottle rockets or M-80's are legal.

Sometimes, it's just not fairBy
I present to you the probable pitching matchups for Double-A Trenton's 4-game set with Double-A New Hampshire this weekend:
Thursday: Ian Patrick Kennedy vs Ricky Romero (1.72 WHIP, 4.11 ERA)
Friday: Phil Hughes vs Ismael Ramirez (1.80 WHIP, 5.54 ERA)
Saturday: Joba Chamberlain vs Eric Fowler (1.63 WHIP, 6.00 ERA)
Sunday: Alan Horne vs Kyle Yates (1.53 WHIP, 5.04 ERA)
So um . . . yeah . . . should be an interesting series . . .
(FYI: you can watch Saturday's game online for free via CN8)

OK, so AAA didn't turn out the way everyone planned. But that has to be the best 4some to ever occupy a AA roster.
Mike — do you know who's going to follow Hughes on his rehab start? One of the starters?
That's a good question Greg, it'll probably be either Jason Jones or Brett Smith. I'm guessing Smith because he's actually a part of the 5-man rotation and that would be his day to start. I could be wrong though…
this is just funny
That Rotation would be unfair against the Devil Rays. Whats Hughes Pitch Count for friday?
Saturday's game will be televised on CN8.
Thanks, Mike. I was just getting a little greedy: I'm going to the game and was pulling for a Hughes/IPK or Hughes/Joba daily double.
Hey, I also just noticed that Brett Gardner is up to AAA, and Sardinha was sent down.
Heading to Trenton tomorrow to see Hughes, can't wait. Hopefully he'll stretch those 45-50 into 6 innings.

HOUSTON – Four vehicles were involved in a crash on the Southwest Freeway that sent four people to the hospital early Thursday morning.
It happened in the southbound lanes of the freeway near Buffalo Speedway around 2:45 a.m., according to the Houston Police Department.
Police said a Jeep lost control and hit the back of a taxi, sending both vehicles off the highway and onto the feeder road.
The driver in a blue car on the feeder road hit the brakes to avoid the crash, which then caused another car to slam into the back of it.
Four people were sent to the hospital in stable condition.
Houston police said they would question the Jeep's driver at the hospital to see what caused the crash.

With attention still fixated on the identity of the new judges on Fox's "American Idol," producers Tuesday sent another signal that they're taking the show in a new direction by announcing a recording distribution deal with Universal Music Group, ending a long relationship with Sony Music.
Under the agreement, UMG's Interscope Geffen A&M Records will distribute, promote and market albums from "Idol" finalists and winners starting next year when the show's 10th season launches. Sony's deal expired after the ninth season ended in May. Few details were announced, including the cost of the contract, but if UMG's deal is similar to the one Sony had, the company will have right of first refusal for the final 12 contestants on "American Idol."

For the sake of reducing calories I used only 2 Tb of sugar for the blueberry mixture, 1/2 stick butter, and used fat free milk. The flavor was excellent. The texture is probably more tender with the full butter but I was very happy. I will definitely make this over and over.
I've been making this cake since the recipe first appeared in Gourmet Magazine. Quick and easy. My son asks for this every year on his birthday, rather than traditional birthday cake. Quick and easy to make and the kitchen smells heavenly while it is baking!
This if freakin' delicious! I used 2 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries and less sugar because my blueberries were pretty sweet on their own. it was awesome warm and I think it will be equally awesome cold too. The blueberries didn't really sink into the batter right away so I mashed them down a bit but then they all sunk to the bottom while it was baking. Didn't top with whipped cream or anything - doesn't need it. This is truly one of those minimal effort, maximum reward kind of recipes.
Went together in a flash. Followed recipe exactly except that I added one more egg to the batter. Everyone loved this.
I make this with a non-gluten flour (just check the one available by non-gluten gal). Its far less $$$ than Cup-for-Cup at Williams Sonoma. I use 2 eggs. If you find your blueberry mixture lacking try adding 1or 2 T.s of blueberry preserves to add depth. You might find yourself pleasantly surprised !
I made this dessert expecting to eat it the same evening, but something came up and so we didn't get to eat it until the following night. I had covered it with foil and left it on the counter overnight. The next morning when I peeked at it, the top was really gooey/sticky. I took off the foil, thinking that some air would help it, but it was still really sticky on top when we had it for dessert. But I reheated it and topped it with whipped cream, so it wasn't too noticable. Very buttery taste, but good. The berries were delicious.
Used much less sugar (probably half in berries and cake), 3 T water in frozen berries, much more lemon. Lots of zest in the flour mixture and 1/2 t vanilla. Excellent for such a quick dessert. Served with a bit of whipped cream. Fabulous for the easy prep.
My go-to recipe for quick, stress-free dessert. Last time I made it, substituted 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract for the vanilla. Delicious!
4 forks for ease to taste ratio. I put this together in about 20 min, following the recipe exactly, and made dinner while it baked. For some reason my berries did not sink. Maybe it was because I melted the butter in the baking dish and used that for my wet ingredients as I tried to save washing another bowl. In any case, so moist and flavorful. A perfect dessert for blueberry season.
Converted to lower fat/lower sugar. Delicious and berries did not sink! Used 1/3 C. sugar, 1/2 cup Splenda & added 1/2 tsp. baking soda to Splenda; used 3 TBS. water, 3 tsp. cornstarch; 12 oz. frozen blueberries; 4 egg whites, 1/2 c buttermilk; 1/4 c butter, 1/4 cup low fat sour cream. I added a generous helping of cinnamon/nutmeg to the batter to add to the flavor. I also used a slotted spoon to spoon berries onto the batter so all the liquid was not used. I think this helped the berries "stay afloat." The trick to cooking w/ Splenda and lower fat is to reduce baking temp. I baked this @ 350 deg. using my speed bake setting on my oven. It took 30 min. I was very pleased w/ the taste and texture. Plus it was a great way to use up the last of my blueberries from last summer! My husband also liked the reduced fat/sugar version.

Today I wanted to take a side step from sharing our "Deployment Reintegration Adventure" for a moment.
(Golly! That phrase makes it sound like yet another movie in the Griswold Family series!)
As a blogger, I love interacting and connecting with each of you through comments, facebook, and twitter.
Household6Diva.com has grown into an amazing online community of sharing, relating, and encouraging one another.
Which means when I learned recently that "Google Friend Connect" will no longer be supported on Word Press blogs,
I got worried.
I worried – so I decided to make some brownies and lick the spoon.
Then I worried some more while I was baking – so I scraped the bowl and licked the spoon.
Then I got really really worried – so I ate a too hot brownie and might have burned my tongue…. a little…
Just like this past summer when I moved this blog from Blogspot to WordPress.
I worried. a lot.
I was worried – so I bought some nutella.
Then I worried some more – so I ate the nutella.
Then I got really really worried – so I finished the nutella.
Are we seeing a pattern here?
So I thought maybe I'd take a little time today to ask all of you for some feedback-
How do you follow your favorite blogs?
Do you bookmark your favorites?
Did you know you can subscribe to them in a blog reader
or have blog posts sent to your email each day?
Are you on facebook? Did you know you can follow Household6Diva on Facebook?
(Be forewarned – I talk about coffee and my children waking up before dawn quite often over there!)
I'm not sure when Google Friend Connect will stop working, but I've decided to remove it from my sidebar in hopes of encouraging new folks to subscribe or follow my blog in the ways I've mentioned in this post.
So tell me – How DO you follow your favorite blogs?
And maybe share what makes those blogs your absolute favorite?

Hazard Mitigation is defined as any action taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to human life and property from natural hazards. Local jurisdictions (Municipal or County, as appropriate) are required to have a Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP). In Maine, HMPs are maintained at the County level and incorporate all municipal mitigation considerations. The current Cumberland County HMP was completed in December, 2005.
Every five years the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requires an update to local HMPs. As such, the Cumberland County Emergency Management Agency (EMA) has contracted with the Cumberland County Soil and Water Conservation District to lead the effort. Each municipality in Cumberland County is required to participate in the process and to endorse the final product in order to gain FEMAs approval of the updated plan. With the approval comes renewed eligibility for all municipalities to compete for valuable mitigation grant funding.
Cumberland County Emergency Management Agency has prepared this website to inform the public, local and county officials of the preparation and update of the Cumberland County Hazard Mitigation Plan in accordance with revised state and federal requirements. An approved Hazard Mitigation Plan is a prerequisite for certain types of disaster assistance grants.
Requirement §201.6(c)(1): [The plan shall document] the planning process used to develop the plan, including how it was prepared, who was involved in the process, and how the public was involved.
Requirement §201.6(c)(4)(iii): [The plan maintenance process shall include a] discussion on how the community will continue public participation in the plan maintenance process.
Each municipality will receive a copy of the completed plan to keep on file at the municipal office. A notice will be posted at each municipal office advising the public of the availability of the plan for review. Municipalities with websites may choose to post the plan on their website. The plan will be posted on the CCEMA website and members of the public will be welcome to submit comments, suggestions or feedback on the plan to CCEMA, as well as to volunteer to be involved with hazard mitigation efforts. CCEMA will continue its efforts to coordinate with volu nteer community groups.
At the time of the 5-year review and updating of the plan, CCEMA will notify the public of the plan review and updating process and will invite public comment and participation in the process.
The HMP update process began, in earnest, earlier this spring. A detailed review of the status of projects listed in the 2005 HMP is ongoing and consideration is being given to new mitigation projects for incorporation in the 2010 HMP update. Local EMA Directors have been contacted by Cumberland County EMA to establish a meeting time with appropriate municipal officials to explain the plan update and to gather data supporting their mitigation projects. This data includes photographs and historical supporting documentation such as newspaper articles, invoices, equipment and personnel logs, etc. Also, site visits to project locations are conducted and Geographical Information System (GIS) data is collected using a Global Relief Technologies (GRT) Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) provided by the Maine Emergency Management Agency (MEMA). Cumberland County EMA is the only county in Maine using the GRT PDA for mapping and collection of field data for Hazard Mitigation Projects. To date, approximately half of our municipalities have participated in this process and the remainder have scheduled meetings to take place in the near future.
The data collection effort is extremely important. It will greatly facilitate the completion of pre-disaster mitigation grant applications should municipalities decide to compete for grant funding and it will provide important documentation to assist in the preparation of municipal capital improvement budgets. A summary of mitigation projects, either derived from or further refined with this data collection initiative, will be included in the 2010 HMP update.
Moving forward, Cumberland County EMA will continue collecting data on hazard events, such as large rain storms that produce flooding, and mapping specific locations that require mitigation. This should reduce the effort required by municipalities to track, update and record mitigation projects at the end of each five year planning period. Also, Public Works Directors have been provided with MEMA D-2 Damage "road tracker" forms to assist in the tracking of "history of damages". Tracking hazard damage for mitigation projects is an important factor in the grant application process but generally proves to be difficult and time consuming to research. Utilizing "road tracker" forms can eliminate this difficulty by readily providing much of the history of repetitive damage needed when applying for these mitigation grants.
As previously noted, completion of this effort requires "adoption by the local governing body." Therefore, the Cumberland County Commissioners and the Boards of Selectmen and the Councils of the 28 Incorporated Cities and Towns will be requested to adopt the 2010 Cumberland County Hazard Mitigation Plan prior to January, 2011. Adoption acknowledges that natural hazards create a risk of harm to persons and damage to property and that implementing certain measures may reduce the risk of harm to persons and damage to property resulting from these natural hazards.

Former local singer/songwriter Jay Clark is officially local again after spending four years in Alabama, where his wife, Stacy Clark, was working with the U.S. Forest Service. The Clarks are back in the area as of Oct. 1, living in on 14-acre spread in Rockford.
"We are so excited to be back that it makes me almost peeeee myself!" Clark writes in an e-mail confirming the move back. "There were some changes in her old office in Huntsville, Ala., and they asked her if she would like a transfer and where. It took us about a 0.0009 seconds to shout out 'Knoxville.' So, here we are! As for me, I will still do some work related to my wildlife biology background via UT and private contracts, but the music thing has kind of become my steady full-time job. So, I will continue to be a washed up Ph.D. that drinks beer and plays guitar for a living while having a 'sugar momma' that brings home the pig candy."
Clark grew up in Winchester, Tenn., and attended Maryville College and the University of Tennessee in the 1990s. After a few years in Oklahoma, where he earned his doctorate, he returned to Knoxville and became a regular performer around town. He returned several times in the 18 months to record, and then support, his 2008 album I'm Confused.
The couple recently hosted a house concert for Jimmy Davis and Doug and Telisha Williams at their new digs, and Clark has a two-week tour through Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas with Davis scheduled for December. Otherwise he expects the rest of the year to be quiet for him, with local shows starting in late December or January.

I'm short on time, so straight to the talking points from tonight's 3-2 loss to Manitoba.
Barry Brust took the loss on himself.
"I think the onus is on me. I've got to come up with a save. The second goal, they got a big break and hit our d-man's stick and went right down the ice. The third goal, I thought I had it, but obviously I didn't. That's up to me. I've got to buckle down and be better."
But buckle down and be better is something that can be said of the entire team. It wasn't just Brust who lost focus after the tying goals. Those goals didn't just happen in isolation. It's been a season long problem that the team has to find a way to address.
And speaking of season long problems, the injury bug hit again. Max Noreau took a shot off of his right ankle. He came back out to play, but I saw it after the game, and it was swollen. They're going to x-ray it tomorrow, and he's hoping that it's not broken -- if it is, you can probably kiss what playoff chances the team has left has nil.
As for why he came back out -- he scored the team's final goal -- he said that it was because they checked the ankle, and said that it couldn't get any worse if he played on it. The hockey boot keeps everything kind of tight. But we should know more tomorrow.
Constantine is hoping that Brandon Rogers can return this weekend, but he's suffering from a concussion, so the team isn't going to rush anything.
And for those of you who weren't following on Twitter -- shame on you -- the rumor is that the Aeros might be getting some help next week. The guys up in Milwaukee who handle the Admirals Short Shifts blog tweeted during the game that Tony Hrkac has signed a contract and is returning to the team next week. That will definitely increase the team speed from slow to even slower. Hrkac was a great presence on the team last season -- especially during the playoffs when the team was battling through tough playoff series after tough playoff series, and he showed that he still had some gas left in the tank. Hopefully, he can help the guys keep their focus on their games after they score a goal.
We checked with the Aeros, and all that we could get was a no comment.
The Aeros play in Texas on Friday, then host the Stars on Saturday night. With a record of 28-25-6-1 (63 points), they definitely need to get two wins this weekend.
And though I know I've played this song already this season, I thought it was apropos of the night. So here's The Beatles with "Help."

2/25/10 -- Aeros v. Manitoba -- We Need Some Help Edition

Are you following all day on Twitter? Who has that kind of time, with all that's going on. But thanks to keeping an eye on it to let us mortals know!

Hrkac... are you joking or not?
- February 25, 2010 at 11:43 PM
Is any "help" coming from Minny?
I doubt it, no help available there...
- February 26, 2010 at 9:37 AM
When the Aeros signed Hrkac last season, I thought they had lost their ever-loving minds. And I thought that for a good couple of weeks. Once he got his legs back, he made a HUGE postivie impact on the team.
If he really has signed a contract, it would be great if he could skip those first few weeks of sucking dirty pond water out there....

A new report is urging Massachusetts officials to take more drastic steps to combat Lyme disease, from launching aggressive public education campaigns to exploring expanded crossbow hunting to cut down on the number of deer that may be carrying ticks. The report released Thursday by a special legislative commission also said the state needs to enhance its Lyme disease surveillance methods to get a better idea of the scope of the problem. Up to 14,000 reports of Lyme disease are confirmed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health each year although officials say the real numbers may be much higher. The disease is spread to humans by tick bites.
Mass. must step up Lyme disease prevention, report says

Now at this point we imagine Coleen wouldn't be best pleased with her bro, but appaz, the WAG is just fine with him giving the world a little insight into her insides.
Coleen and Kai are currently in Barbados. Copyright: [Splash]
A source told The Sun: "She sent him the snap but didn't expect him to make it global. But she's absolutely fine that he's done it."
Although they quickly added: ""It's not the sort of thing you expect to be shared with millions of strangers."
Coleen is already Mum to Kai, 2 and this will be their second baby boy.
Kai should be expecting his baby brother around May time.
For now, he is chilling out in Barbados with his Ma while Dad, Wayne is at home playing a load of festive footie matches with Manchester United.

Career talk for women
Let's face it we all want more time in our life to get more done, be more, do more and have more.
The thing is, we are all given the same 24 hours in a day as everyone else.
So why is it then that some people are just so much more efficient at squeezing more out of every moment of every day?
Well they have a few secrets up their sleeve that you should know about.
Until some genius figures out how to give us more time and charges a fortune for it, I'm going to help you make the most of the time you have at your disposal right now.
Below you will find 24 great strategies you can employ today to save you more time – if you implement them, of course.
24 Ways To Become Highly Productive
1. Get up an hour earlier.
2. Use Sunday evening for planning the week.
3. Say no. (the power of constraints). Ignore. Focus only on the thing you're looking to achieve.
4. Get a cleaner and stop spending your precious hours on this task each week (your time is worth a lot more)
5. Turn off your emails on your phone
6. Use a simple to-do-list like TeuxDeux and only put THREE things on it to get done each day
7. Plan your day according to the most important, biggest task, not the smallest and easiest.
8. Avoid meetings at all cost. If you have to go have one specific outcome in mind
9. Know what the next step is at the end of every conversation
10. Use Leechblock (Firefox Extension) or Nanny (Google Chrome) to block out times when you can't access social media and other distracting sites
11. Set a timer to go off at 30 minute intervals to focus on one activity and take a short 1 minute break to refocus
12. Take a proper break after 2 hours for 10-20 minutes and dance to your fave song, do some pushups, get out in the fresh air
13. Ask yourself "is what I'm doing right now getting me closer to what I want to achieve.
14. Know what you're looking to achieve – what does finished look like?
15. Play motivating upbeat music while working to keep your energy levels high
16. Keep an idea book to dump your distractions in, and come back to them a week later
17. Keep a journal of WHAT you have achieved – either in a notebook or I recommend online journal Penzu
18. Work out what is important and what isn't
19. Stop procrastinating and just DO it!
20. Throw out the TV – literally bury it in your back garden
21. Turn off the internet. If you're writing or creating go to a coffee shop that has no internet
22. Outsource – get help using oDesk and Elance, and have someone else design your blog in 2 days instead of you taking 3 weeks
23. Don't say should, say "I will". Think like Yoda `There is no try, there is only do or do not'
24. Don't answer the phone. Literally. If it's important they'll leave a message

Yes, We agree with everything. When we schedule our company tasks of a day, we usually put so general and big titles. Then, we always have to think the steps of each task again. Then it becomes so unorganized and many times we forget what we have to do. We will breakdown the tasks from now on.

Still in our jammies.
I feel like I am enjoying these moments so much more than I did when big sister was his age. Time is flying. And I wish it would stop.

I love Jack but...
Hello everyone! I've been a lurker here for a while now but just decided to finally register. And with that, I'd like to get some opinions on this...
I love Jack Everett for a boy. LOVE it. And my husband's name is John, so that Jack is the diminutive of John makes it even more perfect. But I'm a little concerned about that fact that both my husband and I each have a sister named Jacqueline, and they both go by Jackie. Is that too many Jacks in the family? We'd talk to our sisters about it, and I honestly don't think either would care. They're both very laid back women. But still...is it too much? Too confusing? Or is it flattering using a family name, even if it was more coincidence than anything?
I also like William Everett and Sage Alexander, though not really as much as Jack right now.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Park Slope' tag.
UPDATE 12/8/13: The winner of the book, generated by random.org, is commenter #1. Congratulations, Julia!
Comment on this post by Sunday, December 8, for a chance to win this vintage copy of You Don't Have to Be Rich to Own a Brownstone by Joy and Paul Wilkes.
A FRIEND recently gifted me with this relic, published in 1973 by Quadrangle/New York Times Co. According to the jacket copy, the book "puts to rest the myth that only the rich or super-rich can buy and renovate a city house."
Today, of course, that myth is the sad truth, but 40 years ago, a person could indeed pick up one of many unrenovated houses going begging in Brooklyn's brownstone neighborhoods for a mere $30,000 or $50,000, with just a few thousand down.
That's what the authors of this how-to did: they bought a house in 1970 (488 Second Street in Park Slope) with a pair of friends , renovated the lower duplex for themselves, by themselves, and survived to tell the tale.
Having read the book and re-lived those heady days of rubble and plaster dust, I've decided to pass the book along. To be entered in a random drawing to win it (which I will carry out using random.org), just comment on this post by Sunday December 8. Say anything: tell us if you are kicking yourself for not having bought a brownstone or three in the 1970s, or if you're too young to have had the opportunity to blow, or just say "count me in."
The book is well-written — one of its authors, Paul Wilkes, is a professional journalist who went on to write many books about spirituality, and the other is Joy Carol Haupt, an inspirational speaker; the two of them were co-founders of CHIPS, Christian Help in Park Slope, a soup kitchen and shelter on Fourth Avenue that's still going strong. (They divorced shortly after completing their renovation and publishing the book.) It's illustrated with black-and-white photos of their renovation and a few others, all displaying hallmarks of the era like exposed brick and tin ceilings. Their co-homeowners and upstairs neighbors were Lou and Jane Gropp; Lou went on to become editor-in-chief of Elle Decor and House Beautiful, and here you can see where it all began.
Some parts of the book are laughably outdated, but much still rings true and even helpful, in sections like Assessing what you can do, Step by step planning for a renovation, and Hints for living in a house under renovation. There are descriptions of architecture and wince-inducing house prices in brownstone neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Manhattan, and some references to other U.S. cities as well. Even today, the litany of a brownstone's negative attributes sounds all too familiar: too many walls, not enough closets, a bathroom "so narrow you had to slip into it sideways," water-stained floors, cracking and falling plaster, ancient appliances, 'modernized' mantels, and acoustical tile ceilings. All that can often still be found, for a handsome price.
The book brings back the earliest stages of gentrification, when the Dime and the Williamsburgh refused to lend money in the brownstone neighborhoods. And there's a revealing reprint of an 1971 article by Paul Goldberger for the Wall Street Journal which describes Park Slope as a "dense inner-city neighborhood where raucous black and Puerto Rican children play in the streets, where several drug-rehabilitation centers treat area addicts" and where the "neighborhood's main commercial stretch, Seventh Avenue, had become a sleazy stretch of failing shops and a promenade for prostitutes." Meanwhile, the 3,000 or so "affluent young families" who had moved into the area by the early '70s were busy "slaving away every night and weekend," restoring gaslight chandeliers, stained glass windows and marble mantels, and holding block parties, even as they stepped over drunks in the gutters.
Comment for a chance to win the book…then read it and weep!
FOR A CLIENT who wanted a 'Mediterranean look' on her Brooklyn apartment-house rooftop, designer Glenn Smithbuilt a shade structure with a bridge, and even a small pond, surrounded by an eclectic assortment of grasses, succulents, and conifers. To read all about it in my Brownstoner column today, click here.
LURKING ATOP a rooftop in Park Slope, unseen from the street, are 1,500 square feet of edible and ornamental plants — including many which are both — arrayed in zig-zag formation by Brooklyn-based garden designer Cynthia Gillis. It's an impressive garden, written up today in my weekly garden column, The Outsider, for Brownstoner.com. Go here to read more and see lots of photos.
THE CENTRAL FEATURE of this Brooklyn backyard is a circular structure made of copper-colored steel, which serves two functions: it acts as a retaining wall to support soil for plantings and also provides seating for a group. The unusual design is by Sasha Newman of Little Miracles Designs, and it's the latest in my series of Sunday garden columns for Brownstoner.
Click here to read the whole story.
WHAT CAN YOU DO with an L-shaped backyard that's only 17-and-a-half feet wide and 8 feet 8 inches deep, for the most part? What landscape architect Liz Farrell did behind one Brooklyn row house was build it out with ipe, a Brazilian hardwood, so that the entire backyard became an inviting deck. There's room for seating, dining, and grilling, as well as arbors and planter boxes for growing things; a thick bamboo hedge provides total privacy from the neighbors.
It's the subject today of The Outsider, my new Sunday column for the massive Brooklyn website Brownstoner.com. Take a look here.

Annual Report
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in the following discussion and throughout this report that are not
historical in nature are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "may," "will," "should," "intend," "believe," and similar expressions. Although we believe the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements are inherently subject to risk and we can give no assurances that our expectations will prove to be correct. Actual results could differ from those described in this report because of numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include, without limitation, those described under Item 1A "Risk Factors." We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect actual outcomes. Please see "Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We are a biopharmaceutical company developing proprietary therapeutics for the treatment of serious medical disorders. Our product development programs focus primarily on important pharmaceutical markets with significant unmet medical needs and commercial potential. We are directly developing our product candidates and also utilize corporate, academic and government partnerships as appropriate. Such collaborations have helped to fund product development and have enabled us to retain significant economic interest in our products.
Our principal asset is Probuphine®, the first slow release implant formulation of buprenorphine, designed to maintain a stable, around the clock blood level of the medicine in patients for six months following a single treatment. The clinical and manufacturing development of Probuphine for the treatment of opioid dependence in adult patients is complete. The NDA seeking approval for treatment of opioid dependence has been accepted by the FDA for a Priority Review. Priority Review designation is given to therapies that offer potential major advances in treatment, including improved safety, or provide a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. Based upon the PDUFA, the FDA has set a target date of April 30, 2013 for FDA action on the NDA. An FDA advisory committee review has been scheduled for March 21, 2013.
In December 2012, we entered into a license agreement with Braeburn that grants Braeburn exclusive commercialization rights to Probuphine® in the United States and Canada. We received a non-refundable up-front license fee of $15.75 million (approximately $15.0 million, net of expenses) and will receive a $50 million milestone payment upon the approval of the NDA by the FDA. Additionally, we will be eligible to receive up to $130 million upon achievement of specified sales milestones and up to $35 million in regulatory milestones in the event of future NDA submissions and approvals for additional indications, including chronic pain. We will receive tiered royalties on net sales of Probuphine ranging from the mid-teens to the low twenties. In addition to the potential milestone payments, Apple Tree Partners IV, Braeburn's parent company, has allocated in excess of $75 million to launch, commercialize and continue the development of Probuphine.
Probuphine is the first product to utilize ProNeura™, our novel, proprietary, continuous drug delivery technology. Our ProNeura technology has the potential to be used in developing products for the treatment of other chronic conditions, such as Parkinson's disease, where maintaining stable, around the clock blood levels of a drug can benefit the patient and improve medical outcomes.
Under a sublicense agreement with Novartis, we are entitled to royalty revenue of 8-10% of net sales of Fanapt® (iloperidone), an atypical antipsychotic compound being marketed in the U.S. by Novartis for the
Critical Accounting Policies and the Use of Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. We believe the following accounting policies for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 to be applicable:
Revenue Recognition
We generate revenue principally from royalty payments, collaborative research and development arrangements, technology licenses, and government grants. Consideration received for revenue arrangements with multiple components is allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their respective selling prices. The selling price for each unit is based on vendor-specific objective evidence, or VSOE, if available, third party evidence if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price if neither VSOE nor third party evidence is available. The applicable revenue recognition criteria are then applied to each of the units.
Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (1) a contractual agreement exists; (2) transfer of technology has been completed or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. For each source of revenue, we comply with the above revenue recognition criteria in the following manner:
• Royalties earned are based on third-party sales of licensed products and are recorded in accordance with contract terms when third-party results are reliably measurable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Pursuant to certain license agreements, we earn royalties on the sale of Fanapt™ by Novartis in the U.S. As described in Note 8, Royalty Liability, we are obligated to pay royalties on such sales to Sanofi-Aventis and Deerfield. As we have no performance obligations under the license agreements, we have recorded the royalties earned, net of royalties we are obligated to pay, as revenue in our Consolidated Statement of Operations.
• Collaborative arrangements typically consist of non-refundable and/or exclusive technology access fees, cost reimbursements for specific research and development spending, and various milestone and future product royalty payments. If the delivered technology does not have stand-alone value or if we do not have objective or reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered component, the amount of revenue allocable to the delivered technology is deferred. Non-refundable upfront fees with stand-alone value that are not dependent on future performance under these agreements are recognized as revenue when received, and are deferred if we have continuing performance obligations and have no evidence of fair value of those obligations. Cost reimbursements for research and development spending are recognized when the related costs are incurred and when collections are reasonably expected. Payments received related to substantive, performance-based "at-risk" milestones are recognized as revenue upon achievement of the clinical success or regulatory event specified in the underlying contracts, which represent the culmination of the earnings process. Amounts received in advance are recorded as deferred revenue until the technology is transferred, costs are incurred, or a milestone is reached.
• Government grants, which support our research efforts in specific projects, generally provide for reimbursement of approved costs as defined in the notices of grants. Grant revenue is recognized when associated project costs are incurred.
Share-Based Payments
We recognize compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees and directors. The fair value of share-based awards is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense, net of estimated pre-vesting forfeitures, ratably over the vesting period of the award. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value method of our awards. Calculating stock-based compensation expense requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the share-based awards, stock price volatility, and pre-vesting forfeitures. We estimate the expected term of stock options granted for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 based on the historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the share-based awards, vesting schedules and the expectations of future employee behavior. We estimate the volatility of our common stock at the date of grant based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent our best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and we use different assumptions, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, we are required to estimate the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. We estimate the pre-vesting forfeiture rate based on historical experience. If our actual forfeiture rate is materially different from our estimate, our stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what we have recorded in the current period.
Income Taxes
We make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes.
As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves us estimating our current tax exposure under the most recent tax laws and assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes.
We assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. If it is not more likely than not that we will recover our deferred tax assets, we will increase our provision for taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that we estimate will not ultimately be recoverable.
Clinical Trial Accrual
We also record accruals for estimated ongoing clinical trial costs. Clinical trial costs represent costs incurred by clinical research organizations, ("CROs"), and clinical sites. These costs are recorded as a component of research and development expenses. Under our agreements, progress payments are typically made to
Warrants Issued in Connection with Equity Financing
We generally account for warrants issued in connection with equity financings as a component of equity, unless there is a deemed possibility that we may have to settle warrants in cash. For warrants issued with deemed possibility of cash settlement, we record the fair value of the issued warrants as a liability at each reporting period and record changes in the estimated fair value as a non-cash gain or loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
2012 2011 2010 (in thousands) As of December 31: Cash $ 18,102 $ 5,406 $ 3,180 Working capital $ 2,042 $ 4,839 $ (706 ) Current ratio 1.1:1 1.9:1 0.9:1 Years Ended December 31: Cash (used in) provided by operating activities $ 1,830 $ (14,476 ) $ (4,657 ) Cash used in investing activities $ (1,154 ) $ (234 ) $ (28 ) Cash provided by financing activities $ 12,020 $ 16,936 $ 4,565
We have funded our operations since inception primarily through sales of our debt and equity securities, as well as with proceeds from warrant and option exercises, corporate licensing and collaborative agreements, and government-sponsored research. At December 31, 2012, we had approximately $18.1 million of cash compared to approximately $5.4 million at December 31, 2011.
Our operating activities provided approximately $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. This consisted primarily of the net loss for the period of approximately $15.2 million, approximately $0.3 million related to the non-cash interest expense on our royalty liability and approximately $1.4 million related to net changes in operating assets and liabilities. This was offset in part by approximately $14.4 million related to deferred revenue in connection with the license agreement with Braeburn, approximately $1.8 million related to net non-cash losses on changes in the fair value of warrants, non-cash charges of approximately $17,000 related to depreciation, and approximately $2.6 million related to stock-based compensation expenses. Uses of cash in operating activities were primarily to fund product development programs and administrative expenses. The license agreement with Sanofi-Aventis require us to pay royalties on future product sales. In addition, in order to maintain license and other rights while products are under development, we must comply with customary licensee obligations, including the payment of patent-related costs, annual minimum license fees, meeting project-funding milestones and diligent efforts in product development. The aggregate commitments we have under these agreements, including minimum license payments, for the next 12 months is approximately $3,000. See "Item 1. Business-License Agreements."
Net cash used in investing activities of approximately $1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily related to purchases of equipment.
On March 15, 2011, we entered into several agreements with entities affiliated with Deerfield pursuant to which Deerfield agreed to provide $20.0 million in funding to us. Funding occurred on April 5, 2011. Pursuant to the terms of a facility agreement, we issued Deerfield 8.5% promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million. We paid Deerfield a facility fee of $0.5 million and issued them warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of our common stock (the "Deerfield Warrants"). Deerfield has the right to have the long-term debt repaid at 110% of the principal amount in the event we complete a major transaction, which includes, but is not limited to, a merger or sale of our company or the sale of Fanapt or Probuphine. Under a royalty agreement, in exchange for $3.0 million that was recorded as royalty liability, we agreed to pay Deerfield 2.5% of the aggregate royalties on net sales of Fanapt, subsequent to the funding date, constituting a portion of the royalty revenue we receive from Novartis. The agreements with Deerfield also provide us with the option to repurchase the royalty rights for $40.0 million.
On April 5, 2011, we used approximately $7.6 million of proceeds from the Deerfield funding to repay Oxford Financing Corporation in full, including required final payments aggregating $480,000.
On November 14, 2011, we entered into several agreements with Deerfield pursuant to which we agreed to pay them a substantial portion of the remaining future royalties on the sales of Fanapt in exchange for $5.0 million in cash that was recorded as royalty liability, a $10.0 million reduction in the principal amount owed to Deerfield under the existing facility agreement and a revised principal repayment schedule of $2.5 million per year for four years commencing in April 2013 to retire the remaining long-term debt of $10.0 million. Deerfield is entitled to the balance of our portion of the royalties on Fanapt (5.5% to 7.5% of net sales, net of the 2.5% we previously agreed to pay to Deerfield) up to specified threshold levels of net sales of Fanapt and 40% of the royalties above the threshold level. We retain 60% of the royalties on net sales of Fanapt above the threshold levels, subject to an agreement that half of any such retained royalties will go towards repayment of our outstanding debt to Deerfield. Funding of the transaction took place on November 25, 2011.
In February 2013, we amended the terms of the Deerfield Warrants, which are currently exercisable at $1.25 per share, to permit payment of the exercise price through the reduction of the outstanding loan. In February and March 2013, Deerfield exercised an aggregate of 6,000,000 warrants resulting in a reduction of our outstanding indebtedness to Deerfield of $7.5 million and, accordingly, the Deerfield debt will be fully repaid upon payment of $2.5 million in April 2013.
On April 9, 2012, we entered into subscription agreements with certain
institutional investors for the purchase and sale, in a registered direct
offering, of (i) 6,517,648 shares of our common stock (the "Shares"),
(ii) six-year warrants to purchase 6,517,648 shares of common stock (the "Series A Warrants") and (iii) six-month warrants to purchase 6,517,648 shares of common stock (the "Series B Warrants" and, together with the Series A Warrants, the "Warrants") for gross proceeds of $5,540,000. The closing of the sale of the Shares and Warrants occurred on April 13, 2012 and April 18, 2012. Net proceeds were approximately $5.0 million. Prior to their expiration, Series B Warrants to purchase 5,761,765 shares of our common stock were exercised resulting in gross proceeds to us of approximately $4.9 million.
On September 12, 2012, we entered into a stock purchase and option agreement with an affiliate of Braeburn pursuant to which we sold 3,400,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $4.25 million, or $1.25 per share, and agreed to an exclusive option period for execution of the proposed license agreement.
We believe that our working capital at December 31, 2012, together with the FDA's reimbursement of the NDA filing fee, is sufficient to fund our planned operations through June 2014. In the event that the FDA issues a complete response letter requiring us to conduct additional clinical studies that would require expenditures in excess of certain amounts specified in our agreement with Braeburn, Braeburn will have the right to either terminate the agreement or reduce the amount of the $50 million milestone payment payble to us in the event the FDA ultimately approves Probuphine. If Braeburn were to terminate the agreement, we would not have sufficient funds available to us to complete the FDA approval process and commercialize Probuphine and, as a result, our business and prospects would be materially adversely impacted. Furthermore, continuation of our current Parkinson's disease development program and the initiation of any additional programs will depend upon our receipt of the $50 million milestone payment and if such payment is not received or is significantly reduced our ability to fund any new product development programs will be materially impaired and we may need to obtain additional financing, either through the sale of debt or equity securities, to continue our Probuphine program and other product development activities. If we are unable to complete a debt or equity offering, or otherwise obtain sufficient financing when and if needed, we may be required to reduce, defer or discontinue one or more of our product development activities.
The following table sets forth the aggregate contractual cash obligations as of December 31, 2012 (in thousands):
Payments Due by Period Contractual obligations Total < 1 year 1-3 years 3-5 years 5 years+ Operating leases $ 121 $ 121 $ - $ - $ - Debt obligation(1) 11,771 3,262 5,885 2,624 - Total contractual cash obligations $ 11,892 $ 3,383 $ 5,885 $ 2,624 $ -
(1) Excludes payments related to the royalty liability with Deerfield under the March 2011 and November 2011 Royalty Agreements.
Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2011
Our net loss applicable to common stockholders for 2012 was approximately $15.2 million, or approximately $0.23 per share, compared to our net loss applicable to common stockholders of approximately $15.2 million, or approximately $0.26 per share, for 2011. Our net loss for 2012 includes a non-cash loss of approximately $1.8 million resulting from increases in the fair value of warrants issued as part of the March 2011 Deerfield transaction and the April 2012 financing transaction.
We generated royalty revenues during 2012 of approximately $4.8 million compared to approximately $3.6 million during 2011. We generated grant revenues during 2012 of approximately $42,000 compared to approximately $0.5 million during 2011. We generated licensing revenues of approximately $2.3 million during 2012. The licensing revenue consisted of approximately $1.7 million related to the premium paid on our common
Research and development expenses for 2012 were approximately $10.6 million compared to approximately $11.2 million in 2011, a decrease of approximately $0.6 million, or 5%. The decrease in research and development costs was primarily associated with a decrease in external research and development expenses related to the Phase 3 clinical trials of our Probuphine product which were completed in 2011. This was offset by expenses related to the preparation and submission of an NDA for a Probuphine product with the FDA in October 2012. External research and development expenses include direct expenses such as clinical research organization charges, investigator and review board fees, patient expense reimbursements and contract manufacturing expenses. During 2012, our external research and development expenses relating to our Probuphine product development program were approximately $5.4 million compared to approximately $7.7 million for 2011. Other research and development expenses include internal operating costs such as clinical research and development personnel-related expenses, clinical trials-related travel expenses, and allocation of facility and corporate costs. As a result of the risks and uncertainties inherently associated with pharmaceutical research and development activities described elsewhere in this report, we are unable to estimate the specific timing and future costs of our clinical development programs or the timing of material cash inflows, if any, from our products or product candidates.
General and administrative expenses for 2012 were approximately $4.9 million, . . .
