Talent to have here in San Francisco. I want to thank you for allowing us to share this and hopefully in the new market, i know jack and i have talked about for many months ever since the twitter marketing and what that was all about and joining the companies that help me to create jobs and also create the future of this great city. You can also be able to help me do a lot of cleaning up in the south market and tenderloin. Thats the great spirit of having the employees here in downtown and part of a great exciting evolving city of San Francisco. Today we are here to make a very strategic announcement. An announcement that not only benefits our two great cities but suggest that we can contribute to the whole Cultural Movement of this country by having a digital summit, if you will, that we saw last october that mayor bloomberg brought many of us to new york to participate in the First Technology summit.

We do not believe its poor planning but we do believe we are dealing with a facility that is beyond its life and particularly the Operation Staff are doing a great job given its age and technology and really trying to be responsive to the neighborhood that is literally across the street from us. Thank you. Comments at this time . Okay. Go to our annual report. To
