Amendment Does Not Change Company's Audited 2011 Financial Statements; Discloses Previously Redacted Per-Unit Repurchase Price of Waterlase MD™ Turbo Laser System
Amendment Does Not Change Company's Audited 2011 Financial Statements; Discloses Previously Redacted Per-Unit Repurchase Price of Waterlase MD™ Turbo Laser System
IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - Jul 9, 2012) - BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOL), the world's leading dental laser manufacturer and distributor, announced today that the Company has voluntarily elected to re-file Exhibit 10.32 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 (the "2011 Form 10-K"). Exhibit 10.32 is the settlement agreement ("Agreement") dated February 22, 2012 by and between the Company and Henry Schein (NASDAQ: HSIC).
Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A is an exhibit-only filing in response to comments received from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding the Company's request for confidential treatment of certain portions of Exhibit 10.32 originally filed with the Form 10-K, and it does not change the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.
With this filing of Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A, the Company has disclosed the previously redacted $7,250 per-unit purchase price of the Waterlase MD™ Turbo laser systems found in Section 1.a of the Agreement. The expected total purchase price of $1,319,500, also found in Section 1.a, was originally based on the repurchase of an estimated 182 MD Turbos. The number of MD Turbos to be repurchased was subsequently reduced to 159 in the final bill-of-sale and, ultimately, the Company repurchased 153 units. The final purchase price of approximately $1,150,000, as adjusted pursuant to the Agreement, was paid by offsetting accounts receivable due from Henry Schein.
Federico Pignatelli, Chairman and CEO, said, "BIOLASE had originally redacted the purchase price pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. After discussions with the SEC, however, we have concluded that it is in the best interest of our stakeholders to disclose the per unit purchase price of the Waterlase MD Turbos and the net cost of the transaction, despite the preference of Schein not to disclose these amounts. The transaction was ultimately completed during the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, and, as such, will be more fully disclosed in our upcoming quarterly report on Form 10-Q."
Amendment No. 1 was filed solely to re-file Exhibit 10.32. Except for the changes to Exhibit 10.32, Amendment No. 1 does not otherwise update any exhibits as originally filed or previously amended. Further, Amendment No. 1 does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-K, or modify or update those disclosures that may be affected by subsequent events, and no other changes are being made to any other disclosure contained in the Form 10-K.

Sparta M8i Crossbar
The SPARTA M8i Crossbar electric bike is simple and easy to operate. The build quality of this pedigree Dutch machine is excellent. It features maintenance-free 8 speed Shimano Hub gears, a fully enclosed chain, and its light-weight Li-Ion battery can be recharged on the bike or unlocked and removed to recharge in the home or hotel. A great choice for men and women with serious hills to summit!
Sparta have always been ahead of the competition when it comes to security:
Electronic Security: Before the Sparta can be sold the owner's details must be stored electronically in the motor, the battery, and the handlebar-mounted LCD display unit. These details are also recorded by us, by Sparta in Holland, and stored on the European cycle database. Once the bike has been registered in this way the large clear display unit acts as an electronic immobiliser – simply un-clip it from the handlebar and the Sparta's battery and motor are disabled. In practice this feature – unique to Sparta e-bikes – renders the e-bike of near zero value to knowledgeable cycle thieves …so they leave it just where you left it.
The multifunction back-lit LCD handlebar display shows the following information:
- total mileage
- trip distance
- selected assistance level
- battery charge status
- remaining range
- speed
- average speed
- time and date
- temperature
Mechanical Security: A hardened steel mechanical 'ring-lock' is secured to the frame just beneath the saddle (thieves would have to cut this Sparta in half to pinch it!). If the Sparta is going to be left unattended for longer periods a bayonet chain (optional) can be plugged into the frame's ring-lock enabling the Sparta to be secured to a railing or cycle stand. The mechanical ring-lock's key is also used to lock the battery securely in position.
With their built in mechanical and electronic immobilisers Sparta have always been ahead of the competition when it comes to security.
Un-professional thieves that aren't familiar with Sparta's advanced security systems are flummoxed by the built in mechanical locks. In eight years only one of our London customers has had their Sparta stolen – once the thieves realised they couldn't break the e-bike's mechanical locks and were unable to make the motor or battery work they dumped it. The police soon discovered it and entered the Sparta's frame number into the European cycle database. The Sparta in question was delivered to the owners door by the police 4 days later
Key Features:
- Silent powerful hub motor
- Built-in electronic and mechanical security with alarm
- Connected via GSM
- Shimano Nexus 8 speed hub gears.
- 5 power assistance levels.
- Power Boost and Park Assist throttle
- Roller brakes (anti-lock brakes) fitted front and rear for optimal safety.
- Full mudguards and fully enclosed chain.
- Built-in front and rear lights
- Sturdy side stand fitted as standard
- Tool-less adjustable handlebars
- Sprung seat post
- Head-stock front suspension
The M8i Connect has bright lights front and rear that come on automatically low light levels.
Should you every have a flat battery the motor turns into a dynamo automatically to power both lights. Its aluminium frame is reassuringly sturdy, and the combination of gel filled Selle Royale seat, sprung seat post, and clever head-stock front suspension ensure maximum rider comfort whether on road or exploring bumpy tracks and rural paths.
Dependable maintenance-free roller-drum brakes front and rear give effective and predictable braking in all conditions, and it's gentle steering geometry make it a very relaxing bike to ride whatever the road or track conditions.
The powerful ION 80Nm Middle Motor – designed and built by Sparta – is near silent and sealed against the elements.
The amount of assistance it provides is directly proportional to the amount of pressure you put on the pedal – you are in complete control: press gently on the pedals and the bike will whiz you along at speed, stop pedaling and your e-bike will simply coast to a halt – it's just like riding a manual bike, only much easier and much more fun!
Battery & Range:
There are 4 battery options: 300, 400, 500, or 600Wh (Watt Hours). Choose the smaller one if you plan to do only shorter trips, or the 600Wh if you need to travel 100+ miles before stopping to recharge.
The following ranges (Km) are achievable under normal riding conditions, use the minimum range as a guide for hilly and or stop-start environments, the maximum as a guide for range between charges in flat open terrain.
POWER SETTING 300Wh Battery 400Wh Battery 500Wh Battery 600Wh Battery
SPARTA are the most successful electric bike producer in Europe, by a huge margin.
They enjoy the No.1 spot in Holland, Germany, Belgium, Austria and France where their e-bikes win design awards year after year. How have they achieved this international success? …simple, by making electric bikes that exceed the expectations of their home market, Holland, where today hundreds of thousands of Dutch men and women are whizzing about on Sparta e-bikes. The Dutch know a thing or two about cycling – if they think a Sparta offers better value and performance than all the others, then it's quite likely the rest of the word will too!
Sparta's e-bike designers begin with a clean sheet of paper on which they write the following: Reliability; Security; Style; Ease of use; Silence; Comfort; Performance; and above all, Value for Money. Have they delivered? Clare and I think so.
For each and every one of the 8 years we've been supplying and servicing Sparta electric bikes to customers in the UK they have been way ahead of their competitors: Like other world-leading technology companies such as Apple & Samsung, Sparta have managed to take mid-bogglingly complex engineering and package it in reliable and easy to use products:
- No other e-bikes have built in mechanical security locks and personal electronic immobilisers
- No other e-bikes have powerful silent motors that automatically turn into dynamos to power lights if you ever have a flat battery
- No other electric bikes incorporate a switch-less regenerative braking system to recoup energy when you're descending steep hills.
Sparta started with the advantage of decades of experience producing "SpartaMets" – those peculiar contraptions that combine a bicycle with a small petrol engine hidden within the rear wheel – a few of which can still be heard buzzing around the streets of Amsterdam today. We have a 1972 vintage SpartaMet in our Suffolk showroom – come and try it, its great fun!
As advances in battery and electric motor technology developed to a point where comparable range and power could be achieved without the din and smoke of a two-stroke engine, Sparta made the natural leap to e-bikes.
With this wealth of powered bicycle experience behind them they developed a range of beautifully engineered e-bikes that meet the requirements and expectations of discerning customers of all ages and tastes. For example, some Sparta e-bikes have batteries hidden away in their frame so they look like conventional bikes. Some have removable batteries so they can be un-clipped and recharged alongside the toaster up in a 7th floor flat. All have built in mechanical locks and many have electronic immobilisers. All have powerful and silent maintenance-free motors.
In seeking out the best e-bikes available I visit many factories. I'm at Sparta's headquarters in Apeldoorn at least twice a year and each time I'm surprised by some new manufacturing process, or advance in technology. Sparta, you see, are ahead of the game by at least two years. But one thing never changes: the Dutch men and women that operate their state-of-the-art production line, man the phones, print the brochures, and make the coffee, are happy and proud of their work. They may not sport wooden clogs these days, but the sight of a smiling Dutch workforce doing what they've done best for centuries is somehow reassuring in this modern age. Producing 21st century vehicles built on the same 'Quality First and Last' ethos as their 1930's machines, that's something special indeed.
When we deliver your Sparta e-bike our staff will take time and care to ensure the seat, handlebar and controls are perfectly adjusted to suit your size and riding style. Once everything is perfectly positioned you will be able to appreciate the real value of a Sparta electric bike – an invisible hand pushing you up every hill, the hidden technology that's so subtle you'll think you're bionic, all the pleasures of cycling without the sweat!

Oracle Calls Out Amazon, Salesforce
Feb 3, 2014 9:05 AM PT
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison said last week that his main rivals were the new generation of cloud companies, and that IBM and SAP were no longer in his gun sights.
Oracle is focusing on cloud infrastructure companies such as Amazon and SaaS providers such as former ally Salesforce.com, Ellison told attendees at CloudWorld in San Francisco.
"Oracle may have some big ambitions, but if it thinks it's going to severely dent this IaaS/PaaS market share picture any time soon, it's kidding itself," John Dinsdale, chief analyst at the Synergy Research Group, told CRM Buyer.
"IBM, Microsoft and Google are all pushing very hard and aggressively growing their IaaS/PaaS revenues, but [Amazon Web Services] remains in a league of its own," he continued.
Larry's Vaulting Ambition
While Ellison repeatedly had dismissed the cloud in the past, he sang a slightly different tune at Oracle OpenWorld 2010, describing it in Amazon's terms -- as a hardware and software platform.
It took Oracle 10 years to make its applications available as cloud services because the company offers lots of applications, Ellison reportedly explained. The company had to rewrite all these apps, as well as its Java middleware, and it had to convert its database to multitenancy to host SaaS applications.
Multitenancy has long been espoused by Salesforce.com as being at the heart of SaaS.
Oracle announced 10 cloud computing services at OpenWorld in September. Its cloud applications include CRM on Demand and the Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud.
Customer service and human capital management applications are the two most important business apps now, Ellison reportedly told the CloudWorld audience.
Getting to Know You
Modern business apps need to be built around social networking and should be easy to use, Ellison also said last week, according to reports, noting that Oracle's cloud apps have a user interface modeled after Facebook and that the interfaces Oracle and archrival SAP built 10 years ago were no longer appropriate.
The social component at a business app's core connects employees to each other and to the enterprise, Ellison reportedly said.
"What major vendors now call "social" is what they used to call "collaboration," remarked Charles King, principal at Pund-IT.
Assessing Oracle's New Direction
Oracle will offer both packaged software and cloud-based applications for now, King told CRM Buyer.
"Many of its enterprise customers would be loath to move business-critical databases into public or hybrid clouds," he explained. "Moving in a direction similar to IBM's strategy via the SoftLayer acquisition seems likely for Oracle. If they don't, they risk others pulling the cloud out from under them."
Right now, Amazon and Microsoft are locked in a price war over cloud services.
Amazon slashed prices in January for EBS Standard volume storage and I/O operations by up to 50 percent and for S3 storage by up to 22 percent.
Microsoft followed suit the same day, citing its pledge with last April's announcement of cloud infrastructure services.
SAP and IBM may well be ahead of Oracle in the cloud game.
SAP offers cloud services both through partners and through its HANA enterprise cloud.
IBM has had a worldwide cloud computing strategy for years, and earlier this month committed more than US$1.2 billion to expanding its global cloud footprint.
"Publicly turning his attention from IBM and SAP is something of a sleight-of-hand trick by Ellison," Pund-IT's King suggested. "Yes, AWS constitutes a great threat to Oracle's future business, but IBM and SAP remain formidable competitors."

Q: I have an old Sharp handheld battery-powered computer that still works fairly decently. It's time for a replacement, preferably using old BASIC programming language, as I prefer to do my own custom programming. Is there anything similar out there? Thank you in advance.
— Tom
A: Please excuse me while I geek out. (I promise our next question will be more universal.)
Wow, you've got to be talking about the Sharp PC 1500 (or the PC 1500A), an object of my desire back in the early 1980s. By today's standards, its 3.5 kilobytes of memory is puny, and BASIC—or Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code—is as fashionable as a Members Only jacket. But like you, I'm crazy about vintage gear, no matter how out-of-date it seems.
While you can still buy a Members Only jacket and Jordache jeans, you're out of luck when it comes to BASIC computers. But check out this bad boy from Dynamism.com The $649 Viliv N5 weighs less than a pound and when closed, it's a shade smaller than our old friend from Sharp. It even looks a little bit like the old PC 1500, except it has a flip door and a display that's much bigger than the Sharp's two-line deal. The Viliv runs Windows 7 and is a full-powered computer, not just a cute little compact.
And not only does it do Windows, it does BASIC.
Go to freebasic.net and download the free compiler FreeBASIC (install it first) and the free FBEdit (you'll need to tell FBEdit where on your computer you installed FreeBASIC). Write your program in FBEdit, then choose "Compile," and FBEdit will call FreeBASIC, which—ta-da!—will create your .exe file. Run your executable, and up will pop a display area with your program: The PC 1500 reborn!
I talked over your question with Andre Victor Vicentini, creator of the FreeBASIC project, and Vicentini adds, "If he wants to type line by line and execute immediately, that can only be done when using an interpreter.
"I don't know many BASIC interpreters, but he could try this one: thinbasic.com. It's free, for Windows only.
"If he wants just to play or learn, there's an online interpreter that should run on most Web browsers: calormen.com/applesoft."
Obviously, you don't need the Viliv N5 to run BASIC, but wouldn't it be cool to run your old programs on one?
OK, geek-out time is over.

To help boaters prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species (AIS), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is adding more than 200 "clean-and-drain" areas to statewide public water access sites this summer.
To help boaters prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species (AIS), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is adding more than 200 "clean-and-drain" areas to statewide public water access sites this summer.
The special areas will act as visual reminders to boaters to clean and drain their boats properly and provide safe and convenient places to do this. Installing components of the "clean and drain" areas at high-use sites on infested waters is a priority.
"Minnesota is the first state in the nation to implement this type of modification at multiple water access sites," said DNR Commissioner Tom Landwehr. "The boat 'clean-and-drain' areas are a part of the DNR's ongoing efforts to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species. Everyone who has a boat on a trailer has the personal responsibility to prevent the spread of invasive species; these areas will make it easier."
The new areas should make it easy for boaters to understand what they need to do and where to do it. The aim is to put an end to the unsightly piles of discarded aquatic vegetation and bait that are sometimes left behind on ramps or in parking areas because there weren't designated places for these materials after they were removed from boats. Sometimes boaters stop on ramps to pull their boat's plug. This is unsafe and causes delays and can release harmful species or chemicals into the water.
Components include compost bins (to dispose of aquatic vegetation, unwanted bait, bait bucket water and zebra mussels), and pavement stencils and signs (to delineate activity areas and inform boaters).
The new areas should be used whether or not a watercraft inspector is present.
The following routine should become new protocol for boaters:
* Load boat onto trailer safely and pull forward to boat "clean-and-drain" area.
* Clean boat by removing plants, zebra mussels and other aquatic invasive species from watercraft, trailer, anchor and all water-related equipment.
* Dispose of plants and animals in disposal bin.
* Dump bait bucket water (and unwanted minnows and leeches) into disposal bin. Plan ahead to save minnows and leeches by transferring them to containers prefilled with well, bottled, distilled or otherwise purified tap water. Take unwanted worms and garbage to trash, which is often offsite (wanted worms can be saved).
* Drain water from boat, ballast tanks and motor. Drain bilge, livewell and baitwell by removing drain plugs. Keep drain plugs out and all water-draining devices open for travel.
* Finish tying down the boat and securing equipment for travel.

@julien51 #indiewebcamp on freenode! Would love to chat about PuSH and SubToMe and other such things
Specced out improvements to #pubsubhubbub after use-case-driven discussion in #indiewebcamp: indiewebcamp.com/pubsub focusing on simplicity, reusability, content-agnosticism. Comments/discussion appreciated on wiki, IRC or your own sites /cc Brett Slatkin
bastianallgeier oh great! See you there, hopefully :) Also bear in mind IWC Portland is coming up and we tend to have pretty good remote participation (IRC, etherpad, google hangout) indiewebcamp.com/2013
After RSVPing the local #wp10 meetup tonight, I get an email with shared signup details for wp10.wordpress.net so I can post my photos from the party to their site.
This is another, rather bizarre example of WordPress promoting monoculture. Even funnier is this misguided quote from the email:
If you don't already have the WordPress mobile app for your smartphone, you'll want to download it so that you can upload pictures and post to the site right from the party. It would be a good idea to add the site to your mobile app before your party so you don't have to worry about it later.
Paraphrased: "So that you can participate TO THE MAX, post to our hosted silo and download yet another app that you'll delete straight away".
Nevertheless, I plan to download the app and try it out as I've never used it before and WordPress UX tends to be pretty good. Perhaps then discuss the whole thing in #indiewebcamp on freenode to brainstorm a better way of doing this topic-based aggregation.
Turns out Brennan Novak pronounces Erin Richie and Aaron Parecki's given names exactly the same. #indiewebcamp confusion ensues. One of these days I'll figure out the American accent ;)
thomasgwillis indiewebcamp.com is where all the info is, all the conversation happens in #indiewebcamp on freenode. Hope to see you there :)
I just dumped a long-overdue rant targeted at webfinger on the #indiewebcamp wiki page about it. Please read before suggesting email-like IDs for for representing people on the web.
Aral Balkan current #indiewebcamp rough consensus is to use URLs as nouns, pingback (or webmention) as notification infrastructure.
Personally I am doing some rather more complex stuff where I author notes using @-names, which get parsed by @cassisjs into
.h-x-username twitter.com-linked anchors, then I transform those into
.h-card's with data either from my contacts DB (at the mo mirrored from my personal CardDAV share) or from the identengine.com API for people I don't know. Then all the links in a note get sent pingbacks.
Fat chance of twitter implementing that though ;)
sophiedennis one of the interesting things about #indiewebcamp is that there's almost no discussion about privacy or security. It's completely focused on sharing, content ownership and lowering the barrier to entry.
Chris Messina tbh I prefer to have actual discussions with people over IRC or hangout or other such medium, and use my website as a destination for solidified results of those discussions, and a broadcast medium to include others too. So I'd love to hear your comments on stuff I've said, perhaps in #indiewebcamp on freenode? :)
veganstraightedge we really should have done one at IWC UK 2012 — or perhaps stick the ones @t took into a panorama ;)
rektide agreed! We (#indiewebcamp) are building that return. Care to join in? http://indiewebcamp.com but most activity is on IRC
@sandeepshetty do you use IRC? Lots of good #fsw discussion on #indiewebcamp channel and the IWC wiki

About Swollen Members
The meeting of two West Coast rappers fuelled this talented Canadian band. In 1996, Mad Child was a solo artist performing in San Francisco when he returned to his hometown of Vancouver. There he met Prevail, who was gaining attention for his energetic live shows and abilities. The two joined forces and headed to San Diego to perform at the annual B-Boy Summit. The group was initiated into the Rock Steady Crew, one of only three bands to do so. Following this, the group released three independent singles before releasing Balance, their debut effort in 1999 on Battle Axe Records. A world tour and hundreds of performances followed. In 2001, the band released its second album, Bad Dreams. The same year they received a Juno Award for Best Rap Recording for Balance. In 2002, the band performed with Nelly Furtado and won a second Juno Award for Best Rap Recording. Monsters in the Closet followed in 2003, and Heavy appeared in 2004. Their music has been featured on soundtracks, computer games, and other outlets. They've also worked with members of the Beat Junkies and Jurassic 5, among others. ~ Jason MacNeil

text: Will breastfeeding mimic a pregnancy? My daughter is 13 months old and I thought for sure I was pregnant but I had a urine test at the doc last week and it proved negative. I feel pregnant and have a tummy! So again, should I be feeling pregnant if I'm not? I have all the pregnancy symptoms; tired once a day, urinating more, indigestion, backache and headache but a negative test! Oh and I have been feeling flutters but I guess that could be ovulation? I'd appreciate any thoughts Thanks.

lol leave all your important possessions at home and only take what you need like clothes and stuff cause those are always replaceable. As for me the only expensive thing I would take would be a camera to take pictures with.
Life is a bitch, so if its easy you're doing it wrong
no ones that stupid.
Sleep with rockstars, support the arts.
I think we all know someone like that, just like we all have that crazy uncle(or any relative) that you never introduce to anyone & pray doesn't show up at family events
How many fuckin' Friday the 13ths are we gonna have?!
my life matters more than my clothes
I would need a drink... then "ALL ABOARD THE LIFE BOAT!"
I dont like typing this stuff, but whoa, here I am typing it..You get it. right?

Well, if I were in my room when I realized what was happening, I'd grab what I can and go. Not a whole bag, but just what I can carry in my arms.
Some things, whether old or new, have an amount of sentimental value :/
Now one of my friends would probably fit the bill of grabbing every last possession before leaving the ship. We were staying at a hotel and she suddenly woke up smelling smoke. She bolted out of bed and started grabbing all her stuff before any of us even smelled it.
Quite clearly addicted
Yes, there are some people who find material things to be more important than their own life. I don't talk to them.
I hate Crunchyroll.
Since you would have to wait around in the freezing waters of the North Atlantic for about four hours until being rescued (following the time-line of the Titanic), it would probably be a good idea to bring some warm clothes along.
I would let the women and children leave before I even thought of leaving first.
I'd probably one of the men smoking a pipe on the deck with a monocle, holding my footing as best I could before the whole ship sank.
I've felt this way for years. I'd definitely stay behind long before I'd think about saving myself in that case.
I do not fear death, if it means that others may live on in my place.
[Don't go all Inaba on me about that fact though, okay? :P]
死んでる。Hic nunc est hodie, cras absit. Ad praesens, nusquam quasi nihil.
I can't say that I do, considering all of the people aboard the Titanic lived and died long before I was born.
Can't exactly go back in time to ask them such a question.

Page 66 of "Tock the Gnome" is finally up for reading, just in time for the end of 2015 🙂
Thanks for your patience, readers.
"Tock the Gnome: The Rescue Quest" is about a Gnome woman named Tock, who lives in a Steampunk culture in a high fantasy world. Driven by a Fairy Tale about a trapped Elven princess on a floating island, she convinces her friend Bumble – an airship pilot – to join her quest to rescue her. They hire extra firepower from unfamiliar lands, and together they seek the island and the princess. But what they seek may not be quite what they expected…
WARNINGS: Will contain lesbian romance, size-positivity, Faerie, conundrums and tomfoolery.

Ross: 50 percentA year ago, the Padres had an effective right-handed starter with a killer slider who was in the final year of his deal. They opted not to trade Jhoulys Chacin , and he left for Milwaukee during the offseason. The Padres came away empty-handed. This time, Ross -- who signed a one-year Minor League contract for just $1.75 million last winter -- has expressed a desire to return to San Diego next season. But it's not a guarantee. In a thin starting-pitching market, Ross could fetch a nice sum if packaged with one of the team's controllable relievers.
Womens 24500 Loafers Silver Caprice A8j21ZDg
Hand: 45 percentSame old story. Hand is the top available lefty reliever on the trade market. The Padres will field calls from nearly every contending club. But they're not going to budge from their lofty asking price. The contract extension Hand signed during the offseason makes him even more appealing; he is signed through 2020 with a club option for '21. It also makes the Padres less inclined to move him. It's a virtual tossup, but Hand remaining in San Diego is probably slightly more likely.
Jankowski: 30 percentJankowski checks all the boxes for a useful fourth outfield piece on a contender. He's an excellent defender, an excellent basestealer, and he's very good at reaching base against right-handed pitching. The thing is, Jankowski's only 27. He's not a free agent until after the 2021 season. The Padres might believe Jankowski could be their useful fourth outfield piece when they're contending.
Yates: 25 percentHow valuable, exactly, is Yates? He's been one of the best relievers in baseball during the first half of the season -- with a 0.79 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 34 innings. But he's never produced like this before, and general manager A.J. Preller's trade partners might be a fair bit skeptical. Yates is under contract for 2 1/2 more seasons. The Padres are willing to move him. But if they believe in his rapid ascension more than their opponents do, they'll happily hold onto him.
Now for some quick responses to a few other questions ...
Is Matt Strahm seen as part of the starting rotation in 2019? Will he be able to throw 90-110 pitches per game?-- Sergio Q., Tijuana, Mexico
The front office doesn't know those answers yet, but it is willing to find out. Since he was acquired at the 2017 Trade Deadline, the Padres have loved Strahm's upside. They just aren't sure whether it plays best in the rotation or the bullpen.
Strahm is a year removed from major knee surgery, so he's not going to be stretched out this season. But I'd expect the 26-year-old left-hander to enter Spring Training in the rotation mix. If he thrives, the Padres have a starter. If he doesn't, they're content to have a left-handed weapon in the 'pen.

Physical Sciences
Research Highlights
June 2007
Better Chemistry Through Living Models
PNNL team gets nearly $2 million from DOE to study inexpensive 'bio- inspired' materials that could make hydrogen fuel cells feasible
Scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory will receive $1.98 million from the Department of Energy over the next three years to emulate nature's use of enzymes to convert chemicals to energy, PNNL announced Wednesday (June 6).
The information that scientists at the DOE national lab turn up may point to new materials that render it economically feasible to produce energy from hydrogen fuel cells.
"This is a basic research project, but one that we hope will provide new knowledge that will be pertinent to the production of hydrogen or oxidation of hydrogen in fuel cells," said Morris Bullock, who co-leads the project with Dan DuBois. Both Bullock and DuBois are members of the Molecular Interactions and Transformations group and the Institute for Interfacial Catalysis, which is housed at the William R. Wiley Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, a DOE national scientific user facility at PNNL.
Bullock noted that an electrocatalytic reaction, or energy made by catalytic oxidation of hydrogen in fuel cells, "is very attractive for many applications." But so far, such chemical conversions are expensive; fuel cells require the precious metal platinum. "We seek to prepare new metal complexes based on abundant, inexpensive metals such as iron, manganese and molybdenum," he said.
To search for electrocatalyst alternatives to platinum, the team will be guided by natural systems like those in species of bacteria and algae that enlist hydrogenase enzymes in energy production. Bullock and colleagues hope "to replicate the function but not the exact structure" of the natural enzymes.
Recent structural studies of hydrogenase enzymes from these microorganisms have revealed that sites where electrocatalysis takes place contain nuclei made up of iron-iron or nickel-iron complexes. These enzymes' high catalytic activity suggests that properly designed synthetic catalysts based on inexpensive metals can be used in fuel cells for this important energy-conversion reaction in place of platinum.
The PNNL award is among 13 basic research projects funded by $11.2 million over the next three years by the Basic Energy Sciences program of the DOE Office of Science. The research aims to overcome challenges associated with the production, storage and use of hydrogen.
PNNL is a DOE Office of Science national laboratory that solves complex problems in energy, national security and the environment, and advances scientific frontiers in the chemical, biological, materials, environmental and computational sciences. PNNL employs 4,200 staff, has a $750 million annual budget, and has been managed by Ohio-based Battelle since the lab's inception in 1965.

We arrived here about 9 oclock this morning. Got a pilot from the stern Pilot boat outside, there isn't anyone allowed onboard or anyone from the ship onshore until after the parade which is tomorrow, we leave here at 4 in the morning for 42nd Street N.Y.
We have been close by the wind all night and most all day. It is ahead now and they have just taken the sails in.
We had quite a breeze So. East all night and quite a sea she rolled pretty bad breezing up again now So.
We had a good sailing breeze all night and rain made 8 ½ knots most of the time and not rough any, got here at Eagle Island at 12.30 P.M. still raining hard.
We made pretty good time last night and today, have had sail on since 9 this morning. Have seen quite a lot of Nova Scotia fishermen.
We had quite a breeze of head wind all night, the wind is ahead now but not strong and it is quite clear, sun shines part of the time we passed a Boston fisherman this forenoon (The Vanasa) they blew the horn and dipped the flag cheered etc. When they saw us they put about and ran at right angle of their course to salute us.
We left Sydney at 8.30 last night but didn't come very far, for the boys wasn't [sic] feeling very well, we didn't make more than 25 miles all night about ten hours, one of the sailors got left. Went onshore and didn't come back when they told him to.

Thanks for the reply. That's good advice! I'll add the lactose to the boil for the next batch. I already have the current one in the fermenter. I plan to boil the lactose along with the priming sugar before adding to the wort for bottling with this batch,

Holy crabcakes, batman… have you seen the news? Here is it Christmas, and I decide to file away my post-excess blankness into a little cat-nap.
Cat-nap: Yeeeaugh- turns out a tiger made a snack of some poor guy in San Francisco. Say what?! Yep. This kinda shit only happens in the movies, but no… a crazy-ass Siberian tiger managed to escape from the San Francisco Zoo of all places, and mauled some poor visitor to pieces.
The blood-thirsty 'Tatiana' (according to KTVU) didn't stop there but critically injured two other men in their twenties before making a fatal spring at police weilding handguns.
Bye bye tiger.
This might not be the most appropriate place to state that Siberian tigers are beautiful, awesome creatures, though they are. Apparently, Tatiana had developed a taste for human blood last year when she mauled the arm of a zoo-keeper.
If you watch any Animal Planet at all, you know the most dangerous of any wild-creatures to the human race are those that have had a former opportunity to snack on human flesh. Once a lion or a tiger becomes a man-hunter, they're unlikely to ever quit the habit. Why should they? Human beings are plentiful and not all that particularly bright. Once an animal has identified bi-pedal primates as a valid food source, there's no reason for it to stalk more difficult game that our species have made rare and skittish.
A tiger in captivity, however, is a beast of a different stripe. What caused Tatiana to stalk and viciously ravage human beings for her Christmas dinner? And um, just out of curiosity, how'd she manage to escape from her cage at the San Francisco Zoo? I suspect some rather in-depth investigations into the care and handling of San Fran's wild-life will be unfolding in the weeks to come.
Lord knows, even a zoo needs a scape-goat. Read the story here.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Salt Lake City doctor pleaded not guilty Monday to a murder charge in the killing of his ex-wife, a university biologist.
John Brickman Wall, 49, has maintained his innocence since Uta Von Schwedler was found dead in her bathtub in September 2011.
The pediatrician wasn't charged until April. A judge ruled last month there's enough evidence to send the case to trial.
During Monday's arraignment, a Utah state judge read Wall the charges — first-degree murder and burglary — and asked for his plea. Wall leaned close to a microphone at a podium and said in a firm voice, "Your honor, I am not guilty."
Pelle Wall, 19, the couple's oldest son sat in the front row alongside his adopted mother and Von Schwedler's boyfriend who found her body.
They were not available for comment after the hearing but have said previously they're pleased the case is going to trial.
The trial is not likely to start until mid-2014. The defendant's attorney, Fred Metos, says Wall is unlikely to consider a plea deal.
Wall's plea came as a trial continues for another Utah doctor accused of killing his wife, also found in a bathtub.
Martin MacNeill, 57, of Pleasant Grove is charged with murder in the death of his wife, a former beauty queen, with a fatal dose of prescription drugs in what prosecutors say was a plot to carry on an affair. That trial is scheduled to resume Tuesday.
In each case, medical examiners found high doses of drugs in the woman's system, but could not determine if the deaths were homicides.
In the Wall case, a medical examiner ruled Von Schwedler died from drowning as well as a fatal amount of Xanax but said he wasn't sure if it was homicide or suicide.
During the preliminary hearing on Oct. 2, medical examiner Dr. Erik Christensen testified that the cuts found on Von Schwedler's body were not consistent with suicide, and the high levels of the Xanax antidepressant in her system forced him to leave the cause of death as undetermined. Christensen said he does not know how the Xanax got into her system.
In explaining his decision to send the case to trial, Third District Judge Robin Reese noted Wall's bizarre behavior after Von Schwedler's death and his documented anger toward the victim.
Witnesses testified that Wall was evasive during police interrogations and had developed hatred for the mother of his four children following a bitter divorce and ensuing custody battle.
Metos says the prosecution's case is weak, arguing that evidence suggests Von Schwedler ingested the Xanax herself and that that the prosecution's reliance on DNA linking Wall to the crime is "marginal at best."

John Stark gets by BowBy JOE MARCHILENA
Special to the Sunday News
October 22. 2017 2:03AM
BOW - Jack Baumann's only thought was to get into the end zone.
After catching a pass from Parker McQuarrie, Baumann beat his defender to the inside and raced from one side of the field to the other, going untouched for a 23-yard touchdown reception.
That gave the John Stark Regional High School football team a one-point lead over Bow midway through the third quarter Saturday, and the Generals were able to hang on for a 7-6 road victory.
Baumann also had a key interception late in the first half to keep it a 6-0 game in favor of the Falcons at halftime, and John Stark (6-1 in Division II) got just enough offense to use up enough of the clock in the fourth quarter.
Meanwhile, the defense was able to keep the Falcons in check for most of the afternoon, bending but not breaking, and winning the turnover battle.
"They've kept us in every game all season," John Stark coach Rod McQuarrie said of his defense. "The size of our line, they're big, physical and they're fast. Those guys can move. They're strong.
"Baumann has been huge for us all season. We had him a couple of times (open on offense) and we missed him, and then he almost had that big interception at the end. He's that type of player for us, a playmaker."
Baumann finished with three catches for 80 yards and a score, while Jacob Cole rushed for 72 yards and McQuarrie was just 5 of 18 for 97 yards through the air.
Ben Kimball led the Bow offense with 79 total yards while Tanner Cammett's 7-yard touchdown run in the second quarter was the only scoring for the Falcons, who missed the extra point.
"I said I hope that doesn't hurt us later in the game, and literally that was the difference," Bow coach Paul Cohen said. "Having said that, we had multiple opportunities. Our defense did a great job and we were able to move things along, but we were way too inconsistent."
Everything started clicking for the Generals after Baumann's interception. John Stark moved into Bow territory but ran out of time at the end of the half, and the defense forced a three-and-out to open the third quarter.
Although the Generals were forced to punt, they kept field position in their favor and a big punt return by Cole set them up at Bow's 35 to start the touchdown drive.
Cole ran twice for 12 yards to set up Baumann's catch-and-run for the touchdown.
"I just ran a simple slant route and I got a pick on one of the corner backs," he said. "I broke open and it seemed to work out. That's all I had in my mind, that I need to score this right now."
John Stark put together a long drive in the fourth quarter, but Bow forced the ball over on downs, getting one more chance at the Falcons' 21 with 3:46 to play.
Bow converted two fourth downs on the drive, but on fourth-and-8 at the Generals' 26, Matt Harkins pass to Jack Corriveau fell incomplete and John Stark ran out the clock.

Lifetime VOIP Service For $999
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Internet
While companies like Vonage are charging $24.99 per month for VOIP service, Massachusetts-based RNK Telecom is offering lifetime VOIP phone service for a one-time fee of $999 USD. That's right - for a cool G, those in Massachusetts can make unlimited local and long distance calls. The fee also includes calls to 22 countries as well. While $999 sounds like a lot, it comes out to about 39 months of Vonage service. Of course, the other factor here is the question of how long will this company be around? If they happen to go under in three years, you are out of service and out of one thousand bucks. And even if they do stay in business, are you saying you plan on staying in Massachusetts for the rest of your life?

Copyright marking of photographic works, audio files, etc has recently become a more prevalent concern for those who produce such works. The discussion linked below was undertaken in 1998 and conducted by some of the best encryption minds and audio forensics types of that time. Very little in the discussion topic, problems, solutions, and copyright tools available, has changed since then.
Some years ago (when JP was still here) there was a small thread on how to copyright photos, or protect them in various ways or at least keep them from being stolen or manipulated. But I can't find it now. Most of the ways discussed were easy to defeat anyway, without spending a lot of time trying.
If you are interested in the problems faced by the industry in trying to protect copyrighted works, or if you produce work that you want to copyright, this discussion will be appreciated. Seems to me there is a golden pot waiting for whoever can provide a system without it becoming seriously disruptive of quality.
The discussion below is quite entailed but totally understandable. The excellent presentation of the problems and solutions are most helpful in such a scholarly presentation.
Perhaps a two-cup investment in reading time for some of us

Deborah Gist has become a lightening rod for the electricity surrounding the Department of Education's school reform measures.
While many politicians and business leaders extoll the commissioner's virtues, this is often counter-balanced by teachers, parents and students who claim that her policies hurt many kids. Back and forth we go.
Sometimes I think that we lose sight of the fact that these arguments go much deeper than a debate over Deborah Gist's performance. What is really being discussed here is philosophy.
The philosophical issues on the table go back to the days of Socrates and Plato. What is just? Who should lead? What should we teach our kids? Socrates went to his death asking these questions. In fact, he was accused of corrupting the youth with his ideas. In addition, Plato's Republic had much to say about leaders and education. He also got the jump on The Matrix with his Allegory Of The Cave. Yes, this stuff goes way back.
Our current debate often times pits those presently in power (business leaders and many politicians) vs. those who might be harmed by power's misuse. Also at odds here are many moral questions. Who wins and who loses? What responsibility do we have to our weak and disadvantaged? As all of this plays out some blame the commissioner. As all of this plays out others blame teachers and unresponsive kids. While we get caught up in terms like; Republican, Democrat, conservative, progressive, etc. we forget things like fairness, compassion and the best for all.
Most folks know the word 'philosophy' means the love of wisdom. What better goal could our Department of Education have than to cultivate a love for wisdom and knowledge in RI's young learners? It certainly seems that under the present terms of excessive mandates, threats and an over-reliance on standardized testing there is little love going on.
Philosophy as a discipline promotes inquiry and analysis. Philosophy when used to explain one's mindset speaks to the values we choose to live by. The strategies presently being espoused as reform point to conformity. We often debate issues pertaining to freedom of speech while freedom of thought is being eroded on a daily basis.
The Department of Education's rush to test for English and Math often has us overlook other important disciplines. Perhaps Philosophy is one of them. Maybe we should be teaching kids about ethics, leadership, critical thinking, citizenship, purpose and meaning. Then again, as we witnessed from the PSU Group, maybe they could be teaching us.
Deborah Gist is a bright woman. In her world she is extremely accomplished. Knocking any of that is silly. She presents well and seems to handle opposing views in a professional manner. However, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that despite all of this her leadership has taken us in a direction that is unfair to some kids and hurts them as well. It has placed us back inside of Plato's Cave.
What really needs to be looked at in this entire school reform debate is 'What do we value?' The Commissioner represents one world view. Is that the one you want?

Don't Fall for Scams
May 15, 2009, 07:14 PM »
I came across this today on one of the
sites I monitor, thought it had a lot of good tips
Tucson AZ
Don't Fall for Scams: It seems that every day we hear about people who fall victim to one of the many scams. The latest we heard about is scammers using Craigslist to post fake ads for job postings at large companies, and they ask for names and social security numbers to complete the application.
Never trust your personal information with anyone on the Internet or by telephone, unless you initiate the communication and trust them. If you receive a phone call, see an online ad, or receive an email, there are some warning signs to look out for:
* Scammers who "contact you", claiming to know things about you:
o If someone contacts you, never automatically assume they are who they say they are. This includes phone, email, postal mail, and text messages.
o If you are unsure who someone is when they contact you by email, phone, Internet, or text messaging, but they do not know your name, do not respond.
o Often they use a scare tactic, claiming your bank account has been compromised and you must click the link and re-enter your bank's login information, only their link is a fake look-alike site designed to steal your information and money. If you do receive such a notice from your bank or credit card, simply call your bank using the number on your card or statement. Never click on links on the email, even if the emails appear legitimate.
* Scammers who "solicit victims":
o If you see an online ad for jobs at a company on a non-reputable website (such as Craigslist), check the company's website for contact information, and call or email them to confirm the job postings are real.
o If you receive an official-looking letter in the mail notifying you that your car's warranty is about to expire, or your Internet domain name must be renewed to avoid losing it, never respond to those. Even if they are not scams, often they are non-reputable third-parties trying to scare you into giving them your money or transferring your existing services to them.
* Scammers who Email:
o If an unfamiliar person uses a free email account like @yahoo.com or @gmail.com, never assume they are who they say they are.
o If someone you do not know personally uses an email account at a domain name you never heard of, do some research before assuming they are legitimate. First use Domaintools.com, look up their email address, then scroll to the bottom and view their registration information. If their mailing address does not appear real, or uses a "privacy" or "proxy" service to hide their identity, chances are they are a scammer. Second, see if they have a website, and contact them using the phone number, email address, or mailing address on their website. Third, run a simple google search on the company and see how many results show up, to see if they appear legitimate. Legitimate companies always keep their contact information public.
o Sometimes scammers will send fake invitations to events, or fake emails showing your order is on hold and must be claimed. Again, confirm the information by contacting the company yourself via their website and/or phone, and never click on links within the emails.
o Scammers may claim they know you, but you don't know them.
o Scammers may offer illegal services or products by email.
o If an email appears confusing or illegible, just ignore it.
* Scammers who approach you in-person:
o Legitimate people collecting money for a cause will have flyers, contact numbers, and websites because they want to get their word to as many people they can. Scammers will likely have dirty or mutilated signs, or may tell a "hard luck" story.
o Scammers will likely solicit an area, and quickly move on especially in urban areas or areas suffering from disaster. So if there is someone you never saw before or heard of, ask for their credentials, licenses, or identification before giving them any money or information.
o Ask them for their phone number, then use your cell phone to call them. Scammers will rarely give phone numbers because it is easy for authorities to trace.
Most of all, use common sense. It never hurts to ask questions, and don't forget to pick up the phone and call them to ensure they are legit.

Aaron Paul of 'Breaking Bad' has 'SNL' cameo
NEW YORK (AP) — "Saturday Night Live" had some fun with anticipation over Sunday's "Breaking Bad" series finale with help from Aaron Paul in a surprise cameo.
Paul, who plays Walter White's drug compatriot Jesse Pinkman in the Emmy-winning AMC cable TV series, appeared in the opening segment of the new "SNL" season. He portrayed one of several average Americans joining President Barack Obama to testify to the need for health care coverage.
Paul mentioned a "friend" who badly needed health care when he got sick with cancer. "The man was a teacher with a family," interjected Obama, played by "SNL" cast member Jay Pharoah.
"He did what any of us would have done," Paul said. "He started cooking meth. And soon it wasn't just meth, it was murder. And not regular murder, he blew half a guy's face off."
Not pleased with the example, Obama sought to usher him off the stage.
"Wait," Paul said. "You don't want to know what happened to my friend?"
"No," said Obama, shaking his head. He was joined by several people on stage for the mock presidential speech who gave Paul a stop sign.
The "Breaking Bad" series finale airs Sunday. Fans are curious about what happens to White, the cancer-stricken teacher whose desire to provide for his family turns him into a drug lord.
Former "SNL" chief writer and cast member Tina Fey was host of the late-night show's season opener, drawing a connection to the past in what is shaping up as a transition year with the introduction of several new cast members.

Poll of N.J. voters shows low turnout likely for Tuesday's primary ...
There are 65 comments on the Millville News story from Jun 7, 2010, titled Poll of N.J. voters shows low turnout likely for Tuesday's primary .... In it, Millville News reports that:A voter at the Brookside Fire House in Mendham stands in a voting booth as election workers man the desk in this 2009 file photo.

#1 Jun 7, 2010
Ugh, how can people complain about elected officials if they don't vote?
#2 Jun 7, 2010
It's a mentality exclusive to New Jersey.
Then when the voters finally get someone good, they're too stupid to know it and want to run them out of office.
Don't think so? Look at your property tax bills.
Completely politically generated, thief driven and taxpayer supported.
School board elections usually have the lowest voter turnout and if you look at how much of your property tax is spent on education, it will shock you if you happen to work for a living.
#3 Jun 7, 2010
people should start thinkin about votin for a new mayor. he is not approachable at all. ever go to a council meeting. he will run you out as nasty as can be. he only wants to go to parades and plant flowers. he does not want to come up with solutions to town problems. he must go for the good of the town and take his lapdog town administrator with him. they are two faced back stabbers and everyone now knows it.
#4 Jun 7, 2010
The Denville mayor? Really? Is he up for reelection this year? By the way I love your town it is beatiful. My uncle use to live there.
I don't know many people who vite in a primary. Its always low turnout.everyone waits for the big one in November.

I will be voting today. All incumbents must go!!
#7 Jun 8, 2010
This thread appears in many, and perhaps all, NJ city forums. I am presently reading this in the Elizabeth forum.
#8 Jun 8, 2010
I am reading this in the Barnegat Light forum. BL has a great mayor, so I was shocked to read he only wants to plant flowers.
#9 Jun 9, 2010
I VOTE (on occasion)...though it's increasingly frustrating to do so - because I haven't found a politician (in ANY party) that actually follows through with their campaign promises, seems 100% trustworthy, and actually seems to have my best interests at heart - and the best interests of every hard-working, decent, "legal" citizen in my town/county/state/country. All the parties are increasingly looking the same: scandels, bribes, giving 'hand-outs' to the LAZY (I didn't say the deserving: elderly; legitimately incapacitated in some way, people; or innocent children; etc...) There's people who abuse the system all over the place and, frankly, I'm tired of working hard/balancing my personal budget to live 'within my means', and ONLY having children that I can emotionally/spirtually/mentall y/physically/and FINANCIALLY support. I respect myself, my family & friends, my home/yard, neighborhood, etc...and I'm SICK/TIRED of those who don't. UNTIL I FIND A POLITICIAN THAT ASSURES ME HE/SHE PROTECTS MY INTERESTS *sigh* I GUESS I'LL JUST KEEP TRYING TO VOTE FOR THE 'LESSER OF TWO EVILS' OR NOT VOTE AT ALL!
#10 Jun 9, 2010
Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil. The state of New Jersey is finished.
I give your current governor my prayers and condolences. His job is not one I would enjoy for any money. Although he is doing what he was elected to do.
There are 49 other choices. Many you will find far less corrupt and financially better to live in with a better quality of life.
Your values are not gone completely, they just lie beyond New Jersey where the words "Honest Politician" is an oxymoron more times than I wish to remember.
#11 Jun 9, 2010
You make some good points...that's why I put I vote..."OCCASIONALLY ". New Jersey is a tough state, no doubt ~ to live in, for MANY reasons. Still ~ there's a lot of decent people living here...we've just been put through the POLITICAL WRINGER (on every level: township/county/state/etc... I've lived here all my life...for good/bad, and I'm hoping to retire OUTSIDE of "Joisey"...
United States
#12 Jun 9, 2010
the mayor of netcong is the one who only plants flowers, yells at people at council meetings and gets mad if you ask him a question or complain. netcong is in northwest jersey, morris county. he needs to be voted out next election.
#13 Jun 9, 2010
This thread is QUITE intense and FULL of ANGRY people! It's turning into a filthy rathole. JERSEYGIRL please LEAVE!
#14 Jun 10, 2010
umm--mmm last I checked this was an *OPEN* forum, and - honestly, I was giving "MY" opinion ~ as you are entitled to yours...I can't re-read what I posted and say I thought anything I said was out-of-line. My post was not intended to inflame/upset...it was basically about the lack of Political Integrity and how many of us would probably vote, "IF" we felt there were qualified candidates to vote for. I stand by EVERY word I said...again--MY OPINION...I don't expect to change anyone's mind or need for anyone to agree with me! THANKS!
#15 Jun 10, 2010
O don't let this person get you fired up "jersey girl" people like this troll these sites to try to add drama and uneducated opinions. They obviously have interpretation difficulties and do not know how to read posts for what they are. I didn't see anything wrong with your posts either!!
#16 Jun 10, 2010
#17 Jun 10, 2010
Ditto Jersey Girl. Peanutshorty hasn't got an original thought and should be ignored. Open forums attract all kinds of people. Some just can't contribute anything intelligent, so they either attempt to bully or inflame others.
It's a refuge for failed class clowns.
#18 Jun 11, 2010
Who are you to criticize that person?!
1) This is a NJ forum twit-not just Netcong!
2) Only one word is misspelled in that response- and that's probably just a typo.
3)Also at the end of your first sentence- since it is a question-where is the question mark?
4)At the beginning of sentences-the first letter of the first word should always be capitalized!
5) Also- the word is duh -not dah! DUH to you !
#19 Jun 11, 2010
This is the Middletown forum, asspickle...
