Comment on Bad Baby Name of the Week by Steve from MN

New Rule for today: If you name your child “Shafraxia”, or some similar amalgamation of letters, I get to push you down. If you act offended because I didn’t pronounce it “correctly” (“Its pronounced: ‘Shay-FRAY-shee-ah’”), I get to push you down AND kick you in the kneecap.

Boy, they really need to take the Scrabble game away from these sows as they give birth.

I like it too. It’s different. But if I was going to call a kid that I wouldn’t spell it like that, I’d spell it Absody or something like that. Maybe a dog I would spell it Abcde. No-one cares how you spell a dog’s name except its owner.

*Looks like [code][/code] doesn’t work, hope the code still makes sence. You can see a working preview at http://aerialdesign.co.uk/authors, where it talks a bit about the authors of the site, then the most recent tracks displayed like the above code.

If you want the script to display in more of a sentence, like ‘My favourite artists are Band 1, Band 2 and Band 3.’, then edit lines 124-127 which was:

[code]
case "toptracks":
$pieces = explode( ",", fgets( $fp, 4096 ), 3 );
if( $displaystats ) {
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . " (" . $pieces[1] . ")" . $suffix . "\n";
} else {
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . $suffix . "\n";
}
break;[/code]

Into

[code]
case "toptracks":
$pieces = explode( ",", fgets( $fp, 4096 ), 3 );
if( $displaystats ) {

if($linenumber == $max)
echo "and " . $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . " (" . $pieces[1] . ")" . $suffix . "\n";

elseif($linenumber == ($max-1))
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . " (" . $pieces[1] . ")" . $suffix . " \n";

else
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . " (" . $pieces[1] . ")" . $suffix . ", \n";

} else {

if($linenumber == $max)
echo "and " . $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . $suffix . "\n";

elseif($linenumber == ($max-1))
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . $suffix . " \n";

else
echo $prefix . rtrim( $pieces[2] ) . $suffix . ", \n";
}
break;[/code]

Therefor this:

[code] My top artists are .[/code]

Would display:

My top artists are Band 1, Band 2, Band 3 and Band 4.

Hope that helps :)

Thanks for posting your notes. It looks like you made it to quite a few classes. I hope you managed to get some useful stuff out of all of it. Just by looking over what you posted, I know I managed to pick out a few things I want to go check on.

Comment on Paper linking MMR vaccine to autism written with falsified data? by Curtis Maybin

This is a serious blow to the autism community and the hope of cure. Hopefully the coverup that is going on will come out.
