Lawmakers must look for another way besides transferrable tax credits to spur new jobs and give a boost to the coal and wind industries, the chairman of a legislative task force looking at tax credits said Wednesday.
Legislative panel questions coal tax credits
"State policy has apparently created a whole new industry of brokering and buying and selling transferable tax credits, like a big swap meet with millions being traded back and forth," Rep. David Dank said. "Is it really good stewardship of tax dollars to have these tax credits handled this way?"
Dank, R-Oklahoma City, said he supports the coal industry, but the coal tax credits are the "poster child for just about everything that is wrong with this system."
Job retention in the coal industry would be better addressed through the Oklahoma Quality Jobs Program, he said. The coal tax credits cost the state at least $10 million of revenue each year. State Insurance Department records show that about 30 insurance firms bought $55.9 million in coal credits from 2006 through 2009. Insurance companies buy the tax credits, usually at 80 to 90 cents on the dollar, to help pay their tax liability to the state; instead of corporate income taxes, insurance companies pay a flat, 2.25 percent tax on premiums.
Coal and wind industry representative defended the tax credits, saying they have helped make their products more competitive and have resulted in the employment of hundreds of Oklahomans.
Clay Hartley, vice president of Phoenix Coal Co. in Vinita, told members of the Task Force for the Study of State Tax Credits and Economic Incentives that none of the money from tax credits went to company executive salaries. Money was used to help pay employee salaries and to buy equipment.
Coal tax credits are earned only after the coal is produced, he said. For a coal mining company to get a tax credit, the price offered for its variety of coal has to be less than $68 a ton.
Hartley said his company sells the coal tax credits for 90 cents on the dollar. He said he bought some of his company's tax credits at the same rate, which he used to help reduce the amount he owed in personal state income taxes.

Wind industry included in study
The task force also took up tax credits for the wind industry. "The credits help make us more competitive with our surrounding states," said Chris Knapp, with the Virginia-based APEX Energy Inc. Ground should be broken in April on the Canadian Hills Wind Farm, which has a planned capacity of 300 megawatts of electricity, he said. The electricity supplied by the new wind farm would power about 120,000 average Oklahoma households. About 200 workers will be used to build the operation, which should take about eight months to a year. About 15 employees will work on the wind farm when it is operational. Task force members also looked at a tax credit given to manufacturers of small wind turbines. Mike Bergey, with Bergey Windpower, said about 97 percent of the products manufactured at his family-owned business goes out of state. Money from the tax credit goes to research and development and to move operations from its China plant back to the United States, he said.

Corey Adamson (born 23 February 1992) is an Australian sportsman. Previously a professional baseball outfielder who played for the Australian national baseball team and in the San Diego Padres minor league system, he retired from baseball in 2014 to pursue an Australian rules football career, signing with the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League (AFL). Adamson had previously played underage representative football for Western Australia, being named in the under-15 All-Australian team, before deciding to pursue a career in baseball. He was signed to West Coast's rookie list under the three-year non-registered rule, which allows clubs to recruit players who have not been registered with an AFL-affiliated competition for more than three years. He is the son of Baseball Australia Hall of Fame inductee Tony Adamson.[1]

Really? I noticed that there was a Lite version for the pocket game, and there is very little to do. i know it's just Lite, but all I can do is hit the zombie-things with my shovel and I can place blocks.

Well, yeah, I think the lite version is even a few more version behind, something like alpha 0.2 or something, not to mention limited even further. The full version has a lot more shindig, like saplings and furnaces (thus smelting) and bow and arrows, and so on and so forth, but the biomes are still pretty primary (the world is not unlimited, no caves) and redstone and minecarts and rails and such aren't a thing yet.

"Island dream"
Peaceful, though hilly location. Comfortable well appointed accommodation. Good local restaurant. Wonderful sea views.
Car needed for trips to colourful Peurto de la Cruz, Mount Teide, parrot parc and bontanic garden.
Recommend experimenting with local non tourist restaurants for a real "taste" of Tenerife.
Peurto has been tidied up in the last 30 years and the time share touts have been replaced by bead and bauble sellers.
Crashing waves on the rocks do not change, neither do the nostalgic pavement cafes and talented street artists.

"a wonderful peaceful beautiful quite relaxing villa, superb holiday"
my husband and i stayed at casa helen beginning of may 2012, we hired our own car from the south airport but helen & tony (owners) do pick you up from the north airport if you hire a car from them which we will do next time. on arrival at casa helen which is situated in the hills at el sauzal tony was there to greet us with flowers and some light sundries (milk tea coffee and a bottle of wine) everything was clearly explained. casa helen is perfectly placed in between puerto de la cruz & santa cruz, the pool is cleaned for you weekly we barbequed every day, the town is 1 k away there are two very good restaurants within walking distance. you do realy need a car for casa helen, just look how busy helen & tony are with there two villas that they rent out and you can see by this review that it is a top rating experiance for couple/family that want to get away from the hectic area of the south of the island

Emphasis on ethical portion in B Schools is a good start but it not the solution. Infact it hardly makes any impact, Being in the corporate world I see that when decisions and actions are worked upon nobody cares about what your school books says. Profits and performance are the only parameters leadership acknowledges. Lets accept it.. We are humans and we have a great track record of spoiling things around us for the sake of our interests. I think stricter regulations will be required to counter this demon.
Your article tells us that the Stanford Business School "presciently switched the emphasis of its MBA programme towards ethics..." As a current student, I can tell you that this is far from the truth. While it sounds nice to hear our next dean touting a focus on ethics that he feels is sufficient for the school even in light of the latest crisis, I can't help but disagree with his assessment. In class after class, I am instructed to make decisions that will minimize my costs and maximize my benefits without consideration for externalities such as pollution, impact on consumers' health and wellness, etc. In more than one class I have been told that the principle I should use for making managerial decisions is to calculate how much money each of the choices before me would bring in -- and then simply choose the one that yields the greatest number of dollars. This is a far cry from an emphasis on ethics, or the integrated and nuanced perspective on issues that the GSB claims to offer its students. And of Professor -- soon to be Dean -- Saloner, I would ask this: What results can you point to from the new ethics curriculum that support your view? I have yet to come across classmates who believe their approach to ethical issues was improved or developed by the brief month-long course. I did, however, come across information relayed to me by my ethics professor that a group of Stanford MBAs colluded to cheat on their final assignment for the class...
The extraordinary thing about Stanford's graduate schools overall, however, is the university's committment to interdisciplinary studies, as noted in the article's last paragraph. It is this fine-tuning of the individual student's focus that will yield remarkably effective alumni who have studied in an environment that encourages breakthrough ideas.
The thinking sounds good, but any ways for connecting it with the profit-driven world?
I think Dean Saloner is quite right, moral fibers are a little less in the corporations, but changing MBA curriculum may not be the right approach. MBA colleges are ranked based on how well they get their students placed and how much the students earn post MBA vs. pre MBA. It is also true that students take loan to the tune of US$150,000.00 and need a decent ROI. The competition is super high in the corporations...
with these and many more such factors, how can 1 improve corporate world with just infusion of moral fibers.
I am not sure Capitalism and free economy is the solution of all problems, neither is Socialism for that matter. Mixed economy is a little better in that respect. Countries such as India have been little hurt from recession due to its economic policies while China's close economy has helped it survive the recession's full blast. I feel governments should monitor the economy and take necessary steps every now and then.
Being a student myself at one of the top mba college, i feel that the education system lacks providing students with a feel of entrepreneur zeal. Ever firm stands for a reason, a vision and to understand and work on that direction is more important than EARN money and i think MBA colleges should help understand that.
Think Magnet, Think SARDA,
For students to take a long term view on their careers is a good advice. But this professor failed to acknowledge the fact that those loans will have to be paid at some point. There no justification to spending $150,000 for two years of business education to gain the same knowledge one can read off from books less having the pretentious, scheming friends one racks up in business school.
I hope this man is teaching students that capitalism really will work with a free market and that heavy handed government will destroy all incentive to produce any kind of product. This is what is not happening now but giving away what you cannot afford is most certainly what has been taught lately, induced failure is an option.

Phenomenological characterization of bacteriorhodopsin–D85N photocycle
JOSA B, Vol. 17, Issue 2, pp. 202-212 (2000)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (197 KB)
An operational characterization of the molecular photocycle of a genetic variant of bacteriorhodopsin, BR–D85N, is presented. Steady-state bleach spectra and pump–probe absorbance data are obtained with thick hydrated films that contain BR–D85N embedded in a gelatin host. Simple two- and three-state models are used to analyze the photocycle dynamics and to extract relevant information such as pure-state absorption spectra, photochemical-transition quantum efficiencies, and thermal lifetimes of dominant states that appear in the photocycle, the knowledge of which should facilitate the analysis and the design of optical applications based on this photochromic medium. The remarkable characteristics of this material and their implications from the viewpoint of optical data storage and processing are discussed.

- Owing to the insensitivity of BR–D85N, a large pump fluence is required for bleaching the film to steady-state conditions (e.g., of the order of a few hundred J/cm2 for 633-nm excitation). Clearly, this energy can be delivered within a short time period by use of a powerful source; however, this presents the danger of denaturing the protein owing to excessive heat dissipation, 13 which would lead to a (highly undesirable) loss of photoactive material. In our experiments we therefore used relatively weak pump beams to ensure adiabatic bleaching of the material.
- Perhaps the most direct evidence for this would be the failure of the absorption spectra of the bleached film in forming a perfect isosbestic point, and close inspection of the 520–540-nm region in Figs. 2, 3, and 6 indeed reveals that the bleached spectra do not intersect the B-state spectrum at a single point, as they would for a truly two-state photocycle. This, however, can also be due to (1) a type of irreversibility (or fatigue) whereby erasure between exposure with different wavelengths does not return the film to the same initial state or (2) the thermal denaturation of the protein upon continuous high-power exposure. (Incidentally, the former is actually the case here, as discussed in the text.17) Therefore the lack of an isosbestic point does not by itself provide conclusive evidence for the inadequacy of the two-state model.
- Since ΦKB is roughly 0.1 at λ0=633 nm whereas ΦBL is nearly unity, this low value of ΦL(λ0) indicates a strong photochemical backconversion K→B in the 13–cis cycle, which is consistent with the fact that the K state, with a spectrum centered around 640 nm, absorbs prominently in the red (Refs. 6789101112).
- In aqueous films with no chemical cross linking between the BR molecules and the host matrix, optically recorded information "fades" owing to molecular diffusion: BR molecules spatially arranged into different states by the recording beams subsequently migrate to attain uniform population densities throughout the film volume, causing the loss of recorded information in the process; see J. D. Downie, D. A. Timuçin, D. T. Smithey, and M. Crew, "Long holographic lifetimes in bacteriorhodopsin films," Opt. Lett. 23, 730–732 (1998). This, of course, is of no consequence in PM (wild-type and D96N) BR films where M-state molecules quickly decay back to the B state before appreciable diffusion can take place. In the present case, however, since the sample under study is a large and uniformly bleached portion of the film (i.e., no spatial variation in the initial molecular population densities), diffusion effects cannot be responsible for the change in film absorbance observed over the time scales of interest here.

MGMT240 - Group Dynamics
This course is designed to develop students' skills in effectively designing, leading and consulting to teams in organizations. This will be a highly interactive course with emphasis on class participation and experiential learning. One of the goals of this course is to provide both the conceptual understanding and the behavioral skills required to implement strategies. To this end, class sessions will make use of a variety of approaches to teaching and learning, including the case method, simulation exercises and lectures. We will cover topics such as leading groups, group formation and socialization, diversity, creativity, group problem solving and decision making, conflict and knowledge sharing. Students will leave this class with knowledge of how to most effectively lead a team as well as how to be an effective team member. [NOTE: Instructors may have different objectives for this course. Please see individual instructors' syllabi for further clarification.]
MGMT610 - Foundations of Teamwork and Leadership
At every level of an organization, teamwork and leadership are required for organizational success. Teamwork and leadership have always been critical to society, but they have acquired new significance in recent years during this era of heightened uncertainty, restructuring, and change. The tenor of leadership has changed as well. Many organizations are flattening their hierarchies and building work teams, with "command and control" leadership giving way to facilitation and empowerment. Format: This course focuses on developing your knowledge and skill set for teamwork and leadership. This course ismeant to be an intense immersion experience that draws strongly on the pedagogyof the "Wharton Teamwork and Leadership Simulation," a team-based, highly interactive, simulation that was designed specifically to allow you to experience the core concepts you will learn in this class. The simulation is based on research evidence and on specific business cases and outcomes. The simulation is strongly interwoven with your classroom experience and cutting edge and theory to give you a rich understanding of teamwork and leadership principles.
MGMT671 - Executive Leadership
Leaders mobilize resources toward valued goals. In this course -- based on Prof. Stew Friedman's bestselling book, Total Leadership: Be a Better Leader, Have a Richer Life -- the focus is on growing the student's capacity as a leader in all parts of life. The purpose is to learn practical and customized lessons about how to improve performance and results at work, at home, in the community, and in the private self (mind, body, spirit) by finding mutual value among these four domains. The core idea is that leadership is about making a difference in all aspects of one's life; this course offers students the opportunity to practice the skills needed to do so, now and in the future. Students learn and apply key leadership principles and actively explore what it means for them to be real (to act with authenticity by clarifying what's important), to be whole (to act with integrity by respecting the whole person), and to be innovative (to act with creativity by experimenting with how things get done). Please visit www.totalleadership.org to learn more.
MGMT740 - Leading Effective Teams
This course develops your knowledge and skills for designing, leading, and consulting with teams in organizations. The goals are to provide both the conceptual understanding and the behavioral skills required to improve effectiveness. This course emphasizes class participation, readings, analytic and reflective writing, assessments, peer coaching, lectures, simulations, and an intensive field project. Four kinds of teams are the focus of study: teams of which you've been a member in the past; your 740 team, with three or four classmates; a team outside of 740 that your 740 Team will observe, analyze, and report on --your Host Team; and a team that you expect to be on in the future. The case material for learning and applying course concepts will be these teams that you know from direct observation and experience. Expect to leave this course with new knowledge of how to diagnose and intervene to improve the performance, sustainability, and impact on the members of any team in any setting.

First Look at Hussein Chalayan's Urban Motility Line for Puma
First Look at Hussein Chalayan's Urban Motility Line for Puma
>> Hussein Chalayan, who joined Puma as creative director in February 2008, marking the first long-term partnership between fashion designer and major sports label, has released a preview of his first work for the brand — for Spring 2010, hitting stores next February — under the "fashion sportswear" label Urban Motility.
The collection is primarily black on black spiked with bright colors, reports WWD, and contrasts matte against glossy. "Urban Mobility is a considered balance between Puma's technical excellence and my narrative approach to design," Chalayan explained. A jacket has internal compartments in different sizes to eliminate the need for a bag, pants with a removeable pocket "ease the stress of emptying pockets in a hurry during security control at the airport." Another long outerwear piece in parachute silk can be worn as a dress or a jacket; pants zip at the lower legs, allowing for a switch from skinny to fuller legs, and footwear features elevated wedge heels. Prices range $50 for a t-shirt to $353 for outerwear.

Could The Conflict In Ukraine Turn Into A Regional War?
Nearly 300 people died after a Malaysian Airlines plane crashed near the Russian-Ukrainian border. European security expert F. Stephen Larrabee explains what this might mean for the volatile region.
Copyright © 2014 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
We're going to turn now to the other international hotspot that's in the news. That's the ongoing issue in Ukraine - or power struggle in Ukraine. The conflict went back to the top of the headlines when Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down over Ukrainian territory on Thursday. Pro-Russian rebels are in control of the area and are widely suspected of shooting down the plane. International officials have accused the separatists of interfering with the search, and the investigation at the crash site and the incident has put Russian President Vladimir Putin, who's backed the movement, on the defensive. We wanted to know more about this, so we've have called upon F. Stephen Larrabee, Distinguished Chair in European Security at the RAND Corporation. Welcome to you as well. Thank you so much for joining us.
F. STEPHEN LARRABEE: Thank you.
MARTIN: Just tell us, if you would, the latest about what Russian President Vladimir Putin's stance is here. We understand that he has called for a cease-fire between the rebels and Ukrainian government, but do we - is that - does he really mean it?
LARRABEE: Well, it's very hard to tell. The most important fact is that his image has been very badly damaged because the United States and Ukrainians' government have what seems to be overwhelming circumstantial evidence that the Russians in fact supplied the missile, and trained the secessionists to fire it. So that he's certainly seen as being co-culpable.
MARTIN: What would have been the motivation for this?
LARRABEE: Well, it goes back to basically, November of last year when the Ukrainian government wanted to sign a trade-in and association agreement with the EU. President Putin put a lot of pressure on then president of Ukraine Yanukovych, not to sign it. At the last second he withdrew his signature, which then started a number of protests. The protests spiraled, and then he was forced - Yanukovych was forced to resign. And since then, we've had this situation where the Russians have used a group of secessionists on the territory of Ukraine. Most of these secessionists however, have Russian citizenship, and have been fighting in various conflicts on Russian territory. So it's really a pro-Russian group led by Russians.
MARTIN: What would have been the motivation though, for bringing down that airliner?
LARRABEE: Well, they did - they thought - as best one can tell, the secessionists thought that they had shot down a Ukrainian government transport plane. And they bragged about it, but then they realized afterwards that in fact it'd been a commercial airliner. And all the bravado and statements were taken off the social media when they realized that's what they'd done.
MARTIN: Does it appear that Russian President Putin have - does it appear that he has any leverage or influence with this group?
LARRABEE: He has a lot of influence. He's trained, financed, and supported the group. So he - if he wanted it to go away, he could make it go away tomorrow. Or, you know, at 2 o'clock today - anytime.
MARTIN: What should then we - what conclusion should we then draw from what we're hearing so far about the fact that these rebels, these separatists are interfering with international monitors who are trying to investigate the crash? What conclusions we draw from that?
LARRABEE: Well, it makes it look as if they have something to hide, which by all circumstantial evidence seems to be the case. But we have to wait to see what an international, independent inquiry will come up with to be sure.
MARTIN: Are there any - is there any international pressure that could be brought to bear here? We already know the relations between the U.S. and Russia are quite frayed right now - that they're kind of banning each other's individuals and putting various restrictions on key players in each government and so forth. Is there - does any individual have - I guess what the question is what should we be looking for next to see what direction this conflict will go to?
LARRABEE: Oh, whatever Putin does. The most important thing would be if he would disown the rebels and cut off their supply of weapons and other assistance, particularly these surface-to-air missiles.
MARTIN: Is there any indication he's so inclined and what would make him do that? What are the levers that would be influential with him?
LARRABEE: Public opinion, basically, because it now seems that, whether he's guilty or not, in the eyes of most of the public, they think that he's responsible for this. Since he trained - not he personally - but his government trained and financed the rebels and provided them with the rocket - or the missile that apparently downed the plane.
MARTIN: Can I ask you for your personal opinion, before we let you go? What's your concern about this escalating into a conflict beyond the region? Do you have concerns about that?
LARRABEE: Well, I don't know whether it will go beyond the region. But it certainly has very destabilizing aspects. And the fact is that this secession, as so-called, the separatists are a ragtag mercenary army financed by Russia - which is done that clandestinely. And now we see the danger - that this could escalate very much into, maybe, a regional war, but I don't think anything beyond that. But, still...
MARTIN: I understand. Thank you so much. Stephen Larrabee is the Distinguished Chair in European Security for RAND Corporation. He was kind enough to join us in our studios in Washington, D.C. Mr. Larrabee, thank you so much for speaking with us.
LARRABEE: Thank you.

No problem.
Stubbs reach on an error, Turner singled, and then Valaika followed with a 3-run HR, his third of the season.
3-0 Dayton in the first.
Webb: 1 ip, 0 h, 0 r, 0 bb, 1 k
Janish went 3-5 today boosting his average up to 281 along with 24 walks. Nice. How good of defense does he play?
Stubbs is 1-for-2 with a single.
Webb: 3 ip, 2 h, 0 r, 0 bb, 5 k
Stubbs was hitting .298/.429/.614 coming into tonight for the month of May. He struggled in April, but those May numbers are the types of numbers I like to see.
Barry Larkin - HOF, 2012
Put an end to the Lost Decade.
Webb: 4 Innings, 4 Hits, 0 Runs, 0 BB, 7 K
Sarasota is down 1-0 in the 5th.
Thompson: 4 Innings, 1 Hit, 1 Run, 1 BB, 1 K
How much of an unknown quantity was Stubbs's hitting before the draft? I remember reading that he was already a ML caliber defender, that he had good offensive potential, and that he had a problem with strikeouts. I guess what I'm asking is whether or not this May hot streak is an exception or whether we can expect it to be the rule.
"Ill kind of have a foot on the back of my own butt. Thats just how I do things. -- Bryan Price, 10/22/2013
Sarasota is down 2-0 in the 6th
Thompson: 5 Innings, 3 Hits, 2 Runs, 1 BB, 3 K

Jason Mesnick Contemplates
Around the Web
Jillian blew it with the Best Friend thing. Say it and move on. I also think Jason made the right decision because I know first hand depression follows in the female genes - not kidding. My mother had it myself and the other two of my sisters have different types. I was just like these girls, active in all sports, great career, up for anything, my husband says people were just drawn to me. We had our first child and my hormones were all over the map and was diagnosed with moderate depression. Recovered thankfully. After our second child it hit me while in my 7th month and was manageable for about 5 years and then 15 years later I do not work I have anxiety and panic attacks and it has ruined my life. I do get to watch our two wonderful boys grow up and they are strong, caring, and respectful indivduals. I thank my husband for sticking around through all of this. 9 our of 10 men leave their wives - fact. Again Jason wise decision.

Spend the extra 20 bucks. This place is gross. Came w dirty diapers in the trash can. Ew.
Conveniently located within walking distance from everything. Great price.
Beds too soft. Heater/ac unit too loud.
Laminate floor, seems cleaner to me. Room was adequate for the price.
The toilet was placed so close to the wall and tub you had to sit sideways on it.
comfortable bed, great location, quiet, staff was accomodating when we had a problem with our room finding bugs, did offer to send us to a sister hotel.
i found bugs that looked like roaches and the hotel manager on shift insisted they were "one of our many adirondack beetles"..... I found 3 of them and they were definately not beetles!!!! also the room needed some repairs and some major updating. no remote control for tv or phone in the room. also they did not have a bible in the nightstand, which is kind of a bad omen to begin with! I will not stay here again, Lake View Inn... fix it!!! Or im sure you will go out of business!!!
Cups..handicap . bars in or near shower
Pile of dirty laundry . outside door ...they need more plungers so manager didn't have to come looking for one
Some staff were friendly and helpful
Tiny rooms Smelled like mold Room was very dirty, Hair and old towels left over Some staff were very rude
At least this room had a door on the bathroom. Fortunately we had packed our folding chairs because there were no chairs provided on the balcony. Housekeeping was prompt, courteous and friendly.
Bathroom is waaayyy too small and does not have an exhaust fan.
The location it's close to town centre
There was cobwebs everywhere and the wifi did not work at all
Poor quality of room Weak wifi Staff wasn't hospitable or helpful
it was on the main drag in lake George
where do I start !! place needs to be updated old style TV was snowy not clear.one key, the floor in the room was wood and it was buckled safety hazard outside is runned down big gap under the door. the guy in the office was not very pleasant would not let you check in early and when we checked out I went in the office waited for him to come in and he stayed outside smoking his cigarette.
location was good. But didn't out way the filth of the room!
the bathroom was dirty the furniture was stained the coat rack came off the wall. Way overpriced for the quality.
The toilet was so close to the adjacent wall that you couldn't seat straight on it. First time i see a room with out phone!
Good location. Cheap price.
No trashcan in the room. No wifi password provided. No extra rolls of toilet paper. Broken headboard. No phone in the room.
Location was great
Hotel was in major disrepair. Electrical outlets were all loose, base board missing, support poles for second floor landing not connected to concrete pad, air conditioner filters clogged with hair and dust, lack of maintenance
We slept quiet well, we did 't expect it.
The front desk man was incredible unpolite. I think he hates guests. He charged too much from my Credit card and wasn't very amused, that he had to give it back. The beds were clean, but the chairs and table very dirty. In front of the door layed a big bunch of old and dirty bedsheets - disgusting.
Nothing mold filth walked in walked out demanded my money back
The receptions attitude the fray moldy room plaster falling off wall in bathroom spiders
Inside looked redone. Price was good.
The staff wasnt very friendly. Outside looked unkempt.
Staff, condition of room, staff, lack of wi-fi
minutes walk from everything, no need to drive
it was nice and okay. there were little cracks in the ceiling and the sink was outside the bathroom
The manager had no people skills at all. No soda or ice machine. The quality of the room was fair to poor. Would never stay there again.
I dident stay their went into room walked back out went to super 8 and got a room for weekend. Ants everywhere walls not clean smelled like mold horrible

Welcome back! Restart film or continue where you left off?
A short film inspired by the typeball in IBM's Selectric typewriter (which explains the subtitle "Ode to IBM"). The film begins with music from the opera Carmen. As castanets convey the rhythm of a typewriter, sheets are torn from a roll of toilet paper, representing the mechanical repetitions of every day life. The artist the shears off her hair. Her head, wrapped in bandages, mutates into a typeball. Her blood becomes the ink from which her ears, nose and tongue type out letters - until the entire screen is covered. The film also boasts a homage to Bunuel's "Chien Andalou".

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.13 / 5.00 3,984 ViewsYay for Xmas brain-poop!
As promised, here is the final (11th) installment of Sci-Fi Guys, produced back in 2001 and (currently, at least) not available elsewhere online. If you like these lazer-blasting laffs, the whole SFG series (along with a few other hidden treasures) is available on the "Every Little Something by DAVE" DVD loceated here: umop.com/dvd.htm
All your favorite Christmas-themed TV & film classics are galactically chewed up and spit back at you by Lenny, Dudley, and Bungi, as they pursue a children-gobbling alien posing as Santa Claus, in this instantly classic episode. Well, it's old, so it's at least classic in the technical sense.
Merry Christmas + Happy '08
bungi was by far the best character and just the way he said u got a babies arm in your mouth was hilarious!!!
Dave its your best ever.
This is the best flash you have ever made. I think its even better than every RAB flash you made.
Woo, on that 1 every 1 wins! Except the drunk elf.
Off course, Dave makes another, hilariously-insano-rama for us all to enjoy, Happy Quanzicaunimas!
But great job as always Dave.
best sci fi guys
I was so sad when they took this off camp chaos but now that you have them all here this is awsone. Great job best one in the series.
So many refrences, so little time.
