This study will describe the use of an intervention, developed by an organization called Positive Exposure, to improve self-perceptions among adolescents and young adults who may encounter the stigma, or negative effect, of differences in their head and face. Photo-shoots and video interviews will be used. The combined use of those techniques is a new way to address aspects such as self-esteem, body image, and feelings of social awkwardness and anxiety-that is, a way that has never been systematically explored with people who have craniofacial differences. The conditions that participants in this study have will include cleft lip and palate, Apert syndrome, hemifacial microsomia, Treacher Collins syndrome, Mobius syndrome and Sturge-Weber syndrome. Among the goals of photography and video interviews are to help people to define themselves by their strengths rather than by their conditions; visually confront discrimination by others; investigate the possibilities for social support, networking, and creative problem-solving that can be developed for people with craniofacial conditions; and promote hopefulness for the future. Positive Exposure is a nonprofit organization founded in 1997. It investigates the psychosocial experiences of people who have genetic, physical, and mental conditions, among all ages and ethnic and cultural backgrounds of people. According to experiences of people with several conditions, participation with Positive Exposure has enhanced their feelings about themselves as attractive, capable individuals.
Patients ages 12 years and older who have craniofacial conditions may be eligible for this pilot study. About 30 people will participate. Participants will be asked to provide the diagnosis of their craniofacial conditions. They will also be asked how many surgeries and what kinds they have had over the years, and how old they were at the time of the surgeries. This information will not be connected to participants' names and will be stored in a database protected by password.
There are three parts to the study. In Part 1, patients will be asked to write a personal reflection (for as long as they wish) on their experiences of having their picture taken and being video taped. They will also fill out a brief survey, taking about 15 minutes. They are able to do this at home and will mail their responses to the researchers. In Part 2, they will take part in a photo-shoot (about 1 hour) conducted by the founder and program director of Positive Exposure and then take part in a video interview (about 30 minutes) conducted by a co-investigator from that organization. In Part 3, to take place 1 month following the photo-shoot, participants will write a final reflection that describes their experiences with Positive Exposure and then fill out another brief survey (about 10 minutes). Surveys used in the study will be the Self-Esteem Scale, Perceived Social Stigma Scale, and State Hope Scale. Photo-shoots and video interviews will be held at the studio of Positive Exposure in New York City or, if necessary, at a location closer to the participant's home. The projected time line of this pilot study is 10 months.
Direct benefits are not the goal of participation in this study. However, participants may enjoy the photo-shoots and video interviews, as well as the process of reflecting and sharing their life and photo experiences with others. This pilot study will be a starting point for future research into Positive Exposure for adolescents and adults with visible genetic conditions.

This proposed pilot study aims to describe the use of an intervention, developed by Positive Exposure, for adolescents and young adults who may be challenged by the stigma associated with craniofacial differences. This non-profit organization uses professional photo-shoots and video interviews to explore the psychosocial experiences of people living with genetic conditions. The combined use of professional photo-shoots and video interviews is an innovative way to address issues such as self-esteem, body image and feelings of social awkwardness and anxiety that has never been systematically explored with individuals who have craniofacial differences. According to the experiences of individuals with albinism, Proteus syndrome, and Marfan syndrome, interacting with Positive Exposure has resulted in enhanced feelings about oneself as an attractive, capable person. This study will ascertain how individuals with craniofacial differences think and feel about being photographed and videoed and what specific benefits the Positive Exposure intervention may have had for them. This study uses a mixed methods design coupling qualitative analysis with quantitative measures of perceived social stigma, self-esteem, and hope. Data will be gathered through two written personal reflections, one completed before research volunteers participate in a professional photo shoot and video-interview and the second completed after the experience. The qualitative data will be subject to content analysis and the quantitative data will be scored to describe perceived effects of the intervention and to document differences in outcome measures. This pilot study will not be powered to achieve statistical significance but rather will generate descriptive data suggesting whether using these measures in larger populations may feasibly capture desired outcomes. This pilot study will provide the foundation for future research exploring the use of photo-shoots and video-interviews as an intervention in a variety of populations with genetic differences, powered to answer specific hypotheses.

The column Writing on the Wall published Jan. 8 has been changed to clarify which rules global bank regulators have changed. The Bank of International Settlements changed the definition of liquid assets a bank must hold at any one time. The capital ratios haven't changed but the quality of liquid holdings has. BIS sets both capital and liquidity ratios for banks.
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — How can something designed to make the financial system safer actually make it more dangerous?
Well, that's what happened this week when the global financial industry won surprisingly huge concessions from regulators.
On Monday, the world banking regulators unveiled a series of revisions to their new liquidity requirements. Read Global regulators water down bank liquidity rules.
In essence the requirements are the minimum amount of cash banks keep aside should they suffer massive loan losses, or customers begin pulling their money and business. See summary of the Basel III revision (pdf).
Bankers don't like higher capital requirements because they squeeze profits. Tighter liquidity ratios limit the amount of lending (or risk) banks can take, therefore reining in gains. Bankers argue that cushions only matter in panics, and panics are rare.
But that's exactly what happened a few years ago.
Banking regulators water down liquidity plans
The Basel III accord on bank capital has been watered down by regulators after two years of pressure from the banking community. WSJ's David Enrich and Dow Jones's Geoffrey Smith look at what this means for the global recovery, bank regulators and the banks themselves. Photo: BIS
During the financial crisis of 2008, we learned that the world's biggest banks were not prepared to head off even a slow rush to the exits. Without enough assets to refund their customers money, they needed taxpayer bailouts. Everyone, including the CEOs of the biggest banks, agreed that bigger cushions were needed.
So, the world's banking regulators set down new capital rules. The rules came out in 2010. The Bank for International Settlements ultimately asked banks for more, and higher quality, assets — either cash or highly rated and liquid securities (Treasuries etc).
There are a lot of moving parts to the new rules, but basically, BIS wanted banks to meet the new requirements in two stages. By 2015, they were supposed to have a 4.5% common equity ratio and 6% tier 1 capital ratio. By 2019, the numbers would rise to 7% and 8.5% respectively.
Think of it this way. When banks make a $100 loan today, they're supposed to have roughly $5 in the vault to back it up. Regulators wanted that number to be closer to $8.50.
Of course, the banks howled. When the rules were introduced, the head of Citigroup Inc. C, -0.14% said the rules would raise "the cost of credit precisely when credit is needed the most." Read text of Vikram Pandit's speech at 2010 Buttonwood Conference.
Jamie Dimon, the head of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. JPM, -0.28% which took a $10 billion bailout, issued debt with government guarantees and acquired two rivals in deals subsidized or arranged by regulators, said the new rules would be time consuming for bankers. Dimon added that the rules would "exacerbate" a credit crisis. He called some of the rules "un-American." Read report on Dimon's remarks.

+ Video quality is good
+ Flash preview
+ Model index
+ Search by category
+ Advanced search by key tags
+ Screen cap preview for video
+ Zips for both picture sizes
+ Comment section on all updates
+ Download speeds very good with a download manager
+ No apparent download limit
+ PU discount
+ Extra sites (see bottom line)
- Layout looks dated and cluttered
- Page to page speeds very slow
- Random order updates
- Picture quality seriously lacking - especially the large
- Some serious tattoos showing up (Yes, a personal dislike)
- Bonus video links not valid
- Signed out seemingly at random
Bottom Line:
> Video is available in 5 downloadable formats MP4 HD 1280x720 @ 4500 kbps, MP4 720x406 @ 755, WMV 1024x576 @ 3100, 3GP 704x576 @ 1500 and 3GP Low 352x288 @ 1200. The in browser flash player features similar resolutions & files sizes.
> The pictures are available in two sizes and both in zip files - 1280 and 2826 long side. But the quality isn't up to today's standards. The larger pics look grainy, like they were upscaled with a basic photo editor. Now including a few
Girls Out West
picture sets, they're only available as small 1000 pixels long side.
> It's hard to get a fix on the update schedule or figure out how to explain it in print. Sometimes there are two releases on the same day with any mix of masturbation video, an interview, a "cum face" clip or a biography, sometimes it's any one by itself.
> The page-to-page speed looks like it's hampered by some sort of security. Clicking back or forward, I noticed seemingly random numbers preceding the page URLs. I think that also has something to do with my getting logged out at times. That caused some of the downloads I had in queue on my download manager to download to 35 kilobytes, meaning they had to be downloaded again.
Whispering Lily is one of the extra access sites listed as a masturbation social network and a place to chat with other members and browse personals. I'm not too interested in that sort of thing but tried to check it out for the sake of this review. Unfortunately, I kept getting logged out and getting a server error when I tried to get back in. I stopped trying.
.net is a masturbation site featuring guys. Not my thing, so no comments forthcoming. :grin:
is the place for masturbation stories - with referral links to still more sites. STOP WITH THE ADS!
The 31 bonus videos all date back to 2004-2007 and haven't changed since my last signup.
The bonus videos feeds show this message: "The website that brought you here is not authorized to link to this video feed". A real WTF moment.
It seems I didn't wait long enough to sign up here again. The updates still include biographies, "cum face" short 20-30 second videos (like those on
Beautiful Agony
), and non-nude interviews. While I'm sure there are fans of these, I still don't call them update material - especially the bios which aren't called an update on any other site I've seen. They're still just four pages of questions and answers. It's a masturbation site and that's what I want to see. I'm not interested in knowing what her first time masturbating was like or about the waterfalls in Oregon. I also wasn't too thrilled with having to figure out whether a video was an interview or a full episode. They do list the time of each video, but you have to watch the animated gif preview or go to the screen caps to see what's what.
One of the biggest things that had drawn me to this site in the first place was the girl next door look to the models. I don't like glam, I like average looking. Tattoos, piercings and fake tits were almost non-existent. The latest models are now putting that to rest. Girls with full sleeves, large skull tattoos, nipple and body piercings are distractions I can do without.
I don't know if they've changed or I just didn't notice it my last time in, but the layout and navigation definitely need streamlining. If you can, picture this: The home page shows three columns, "Cumming Soon" preview thumbs on the left. In the middle are Recent Updates, Social Network links, What's Hot, Member Poll and some ads. On the right, Social network links (again), Most Popular Girls, another ad, Most Viewed and Most Popular updates and support links. Way too busy for my taste. There are too many links that jump you to different parts of their network - and far too often they link you to yet another offer to join another site. One minute you're in Yanks, the next you're in WhisperingLily. And damn if there aren't ads on every page. Stop trying to sell me something and give me what I signed up for! And that's what I see as the biggest shortcoming of the site. After over a year since my last time in, I only downloaded about a hundred masturbation episodes. That might sound like a lot, but they're about 10-minute average length and over a full year's worth of content. If the pictures were clearer, I might have saved a few more of those sets as well, but the quality just isn't there. As was noted in another review, this site has a lot of potential but somehow manages to fall short. Even with all the positive aspects I see, the cons really hurt the overall experience. The core material is really good, with (unlike another well-known masturbation site) well-lit, "see-it-all" scenes. I would only recommend this site to a first time subscriber or someone who doesn't mind waiting a long time for the full scenes to build up.

One of the best collections of authentic looking amateurs on the net.
Most girls are extremely attractive, intelligent, articulate, and very likable.
Huge selection of videos. Most have both interviews and individual masturbation scenes.
Excellent value
Site features written biographies of each model, similar to Abby Winters.
Site is very active and updated regularly
Video quality could use some improvement although it is totally acceptable. As with most sights that have been around for a long time, the quality improves as you go along.
Bottom Line:
This site is a hidden gem. I would rank it up there as one of the top amateurs sites on the net today. Here you have a very large collection of authentic looking college intellectual bohemian co-ed types primarily from the Northwest usually performing their first porn shot. Believe me, these are not the type of girls you expect to be doing a porn! In any case, The girls are usually very positive about the experience and it shows. The typical format is to open with an interview of the model in street clothes with no makeup, conducted by a very cool laid back female who really knows how to relax the girls and get them to open up about themselves. This serves as a warmup to one or more masturbation scenes. If ever there was a site that fit the term "Organic porn" this would be it. Very highly recommended!!!!
A few points
Since I'm currently on the site, I was going to do a review until I saw exotic's exceptional wrap up. Instead of mirroring just about everything he said, I'll just add a couple of things as I see 'em.
I agree with everything he said except about the video quality. With maybe a few exceptions, where the camera work is less than ideal, you have to go back to somewhere to late 2009 to get to the lower quality, lower resolution video. Even if you want to avoid the older stuff, that means there's still enough higher resolution material to make a sign-up worthwhile. I'm more than happy with the picture quality of the 1280 resolution mp4s that I download, even on a 40 inch monitor.
The picture quality is another story. I get the feeling that there's very little reviewing of pictures before they're put online. Even in the newer sets, there are more than enough out of focus shots and oddities like what I'd call "mid-blink facial contortions" to make this a disappointment to picture fans.
The biggest complaint I have about this site has to do with the updates. It's a masturbation site and that's what I expect to see when I sign up. As an example, the updates from January 3rd to the 6th were, in order, a non-nude interview, a text biography, a 35-second face only clip, and a 9-picture non-nude picture set. Looking back through December's updates, there were 11 that were either interviews or biographies. That's a third of a month's membership.
OK - Even though I'm not a fan of non-nude content, I can accept that there are people who can appreciate interviews. But, the biographies? Yeah, some of the stuff the women put up was interesting, and I was positively thrilled to find out how many models had barely intelligible handwriting and couldn't spell worth a damn. "The vibrator is the best, it is a way better organism." But, on every other site with personal information like that, it's either a link on a model's page or printed directly on her page. I just don't see nineteen questions spread out over four pages qualifying as update material.
It's still all about the amateurs to me, so I still like the site, despite the shortcomings. I'd rate it in the high 80s. The piercings and tattoos aren't TOO overbearing, and silicone is rare here. I just wish I could get more out of a month's membership. The bios and interviews just mean I have to wait a little while longer to sign up again as the REAL content builds up.
Frustration with billing/cancel (Resolved)
Edit: Just wanted to edit to say the webmaster helped me get canceled, but will leave the rest of the comment in case it happens to a future member so they can reference it.
Going to take a few points off my review for the frustrating cancellation process. Here's the steps and mind you, I still have NOT been able to cancel my account.
First, they have four different billing processors, netbilling, ccbill, epoch and netcash. I don't know if certain ones are used based on the country you are in, but my account was processed by netbilling, who I have used a time or two in the past.
In my subscription confirmation email there is no link to cancel. I go to netbilling's homepage, have a member ID, but there is nowhere on netbilling's homepage to cancel. Went to Yanks support, clicked "cancel" it asked which biller I used. Clicked on netbilling. It tells me to put my username and password in. I do this and click "cancel account".
Well, the browser sits there with a working spinner going, "Connecting..." I go outside, take the trash out, come back and still is working and saying, "connecting". It finally pops up and says, "Cannot find account". I'll never understand why a biller gives a customer a "member ID number" but doesn't have a place to enter that when canceling.
I'll never understand why a site would hire a biller that doesn't allow direct cancel on the biller's homepage. You're just asking for dissatisfied customers.
And this is not just a one-time thing. I've tried it 3 nights in a row. There is an option to email the site's support with any cancellation problems, so I guess I'm going to have to do that. Whether fast reply or not, I don't think I should have to email the site to cancel when they have a cancellation system in place. It goes back to, I didn't have to email the site to JOIN the site so why should I have to email the site to cancel it? Go back to my review and see the part about my main frustration with the site itself being that it could be much better than it is if some time and effort was put into updating the way the site itself works. Looks like that carried right over into the billing too.

- A site based around mostly amateurs, the female orgasm and real masturbation. As a plus, if you have a wife or girlfriend, that likes porn, you also get access to their site that is focused on male masturbation.
- Price is good through TBP
- Newer videos are 1280x720, will further this in BL
- Newer pictures are near 3000 long end and come zipped.
- Taking a shot at around 400 models, surprisingly, for an amateur site, nearly all the women are attractive. I think that's a big plus. Even the older (mid and up 40s) models that would normally not appeal to me, do here.
- Call it a pro or con, there are some pornstars on here. Ramona Luv seems to have been on nearly all amateur sites in 2004-06 and she's here,
Aaliyah Love
is here as a guest model, I don't mind them, but some might. I would love to see more Ramona.
- Decent search, it works, but the whole navigation of the site could be updated, reminds me of
Little Mutt
in how the site works.
- Very good download speeds
- The videos are not that clear, not even the 1280x720 ones. It could be lighting, could be the amateur "effect", but the older videos are hard to watch on a big monitor.
- Inconsistencies, one model, Isabella, has a high video download option, it's 720x480 and a bit blurry. A newer model doesn't have high video download option and the medium option is clearer than Isabella's high option.
- If I could convince them of one thing, please stop the video from streaming when I click on it to download. Firefox users should turn to No Script, trust me, some of these videos are orgasm focused so there's nothing like one starting and a loud moan roaring through your house at 4 in the morning.
- My main feeling here in the cons is that it needs updating, not the actual content updates, but the site. It took me 10 minutes to find the download link for photo sets.
Bottom Line:
We had discussed a little about this site being like
I Feel Myself
. It's not a lot like it, but it does have short 40-60 second videos of the woman's orgasm face that are spliced from the actual full body videos. So if you're into
I Feel Myself
and just seeing the face during orgasm, you will like those, I really didn't since they are so short.
Next up, interview videos. They're everywhere. Since they don't an interview tag, I scanned through the videos archives and these interview videos look to come about every 5th update. I really don't like interview videos and they take up the space of an update too. I do understand the use of them on a site like this since it's more convincing that these girls are not pros, but the pros have ruined interviews for most of us. For what it's worth, most of the girls on here seem genuinely sweet and playful.
I don't know what the deal is with the videos not looking good.
But wait a minute, the content is really good. If you're into strip, tease, which I am, you may not like these videos. There is almost no tease, it's get naked, masturbate for 7-10 minutes, orgasm. This isn't as bad as it sounds. It does add to the girls probably being filled with anxiety, nervousness. Some of the girls are much more confident and have more fun with it.
The unusual masturbation techniques used in some are interesting, erotic even, but I'm not for sure how sexually arousing they are to watch. Maybe that's me, I don't find a girl rubbing her clit against the corner of a bathroom sink to be arousing. I'm guessing what is being shown here though is that this is how the girls are comfortable masturbating. I don't believe there is a fake orgasm on the site. You get some squirters, some that make a milky mess in minutes and what I think they have going for them the most, the girls are really good-looking girls. There are few here and there that don't really appeal, but most look like regular, cute to really pretty girls.
They're all not skinny or in perfect shape. I was really surprised that I liked the 45 year old Barbie Lynn's bathtub shoot. I think they are going to sell most of these models on being real, erotic instead of drop dead gorgeous.
These are the numbers I'm coming up with based on their search engine.
Nearly 1,000 videos, and as said earlier the interview ones and short orgasm face ones are included here. Still, the site has grown since I was last on it. From the way I read it, they had several sites and decided to put all the content on them on this site. I don't remember them having over maybe 400 videos last year.
I will say they could be more clear about what you get. When I click "our sites", it shows me having access to the male masturbation site
Club Stroke
and having access to Whispering Lily, this is a community site that has a forum, shows the new updates at Yanks.
This is where it gets confusing. Also listed in "our sites" is Solo Touch. This shows as being a male and female masturbation site. Well, to enter it, I have to register a profile on Whispering Lily. When I go to Whispering Lily it says that all their content has been put on Yanks or
Club Stroke
, so I have no clue what this Solo Touch is or if its female content is already on Yanks.
A little frustrated that some of the models only have pictures. I understand that not all are willing to do videos, but I still want to mention that to potential members. Another frustrating one that I think is very important, some of the picture sets are only 15-25 pictures. Again, I understand that those are older sets.
May sound like I have mostly negative feelings here, but it's not true. The frustration comes from how good this content is and how much better it could be.
They stick with the solo theme really well. There are even dozens of videos of two girls masturbating together, but not really touching each other. This is a whole other level of erotic since you get the feeling they are drawing some inspiration from looking at the other masturbating. A few do go into girl/girl and those scenes are really good if you're into lesbian porn.
Updates don't seem to follow a set schedule. For the last month there are 25 updates, those 25 breakdown like this, 8 photo sets, 10 masturbation videos, 5 interview videos and 2 of the orgasm face only videos.
Overall, I really like the site because of the models. I will be keeping the majority of what I download, which is rare for me. And it's nice in a way that the videos are short 7-10 minutes, even at HD, are only 200 MB or so.
On recommending it, if you need tease in every video then maybe not. If you're looking for something different than the normal porn these days, this site is highly recommended. I think it's much better than
I Feel Myself
and would compare it more to
Little Mutt
or maybe even FTV in some ways without the glam. I would recommend it. I'm enjoying it and it will slip into my normal rotation of sites. More of Ginger P would be nice too!
Anyone Got Anything?
This site seems comparative to "
I Feel Myself
" but a main difference IMHO is the type of girl showcased. This site seems to cater to the regular, next door type while
I Feel Myself
tended to show more 'Hipster' girls and I think European or Australian (I don't remember clearly). Anyways, I like the other site so I wonder if anyone who knows can tell me how they are in comparison? If not, does anyone have any info on the site from a more recent subscription? The last PU review was awhile ago from a disabled user and TBP's review seems promising. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
Separate memberships required!
Be aware that membership to Yanks does NOT entitle you to free membership to their other sites as listed here:
Each site requires its own paid membership. And considering that each site is rather underwhelming, your money may be better spent elsewhere.

+Site search which works well
+Homepage has every list (keyword "LIST") you could want - top rated models, latest videos, latest pic sets, latest updates, etc.
+Site celebrates female masturbation, so you get videos with some odd, but entertaining female masturbation techniques (check out a scene from Mercedes where she uses the edge of a table to get off)
+Two formats (WMV,QT), and two qualities (low,high) of videos offered on most videos (some just offer WMV)
+Images are high quality
+100% exclusive content with girls you have never seen before. A few girls here and there have done professional porn vids, but for the most part they are newbs.
+Theres a headshot for every girl in the directory
+Yanks provides scans of introductory survey that each girl filled out when they applied for Yanks (using their porn name of course). So you get every bit of information you want to know about a girl - measurements, sex habits, likes, dislikes, etc. It is fun to know this stuff about a girl.
-Watermarked videos and images
-Disappointing library size
-Girl directory not alphabetized
-Can't download imagesets as ZIP files
-No free bonus material. There are two bonus pages totaling 5 types of bonus content: links to buy porn hardware (like dildos and fleshlights), links to "trusted" partners (nothing more than links), friends links (sites which have offered a bit of their junkier content for free to Yanks), streams (junky streams like Lightspeed, which themselves are limited), and actual bonus sites on the Yanks network (except they are not automatically included with Yanks membership). Like I said, no bonus material.
-Videos with multiple girls are featured on their own page. E.g. Mercedes has a video with a girl named Jordan. Instead of this update appearing on Mercedes' or Jordan's page it appears on a separate page for "Jordan and Mercedes"
-Homepage only shows latest 5 updates, no page to show more, and videos are not tagged with dates after being pushed off the homepage
Bottom Line:
Overall the site is very underwhelming and feels like it is lacking, mind you the layout has not been updated for years. The site is still updated, at what exact rate I do not know (since I can only see the last 6 updates), though it seems like it averages out to a little LESS THAN one update per day. The material is high quality (good resolution video, good resolution images) and enjoyable to watch, just I wish there was more of it. Each girl has only one or two videos, maybe 2 or 3 image sets and that is it. What is a little more disappointing is that the videos generally have no associated imagesets and the imagesets generally don't have associated videos - which sucks because there are some image galleries that get my blood rushing, that I would love to see in full motion.
Personally, I would have liked if this review applied to the other sites in the Yanks network (Billies Bitches, Girls and Fingers, etc.) but it can't because each site requires separate membership (I mean I guess you could sign up the same username and password on each site, but you still have to pay extra each time).
$10/mo is rather cheap, but
is also $10/mo and you get 5 full DVD's per day, which works out to 35 DVD's per 7 days, or an average of like 150 individual scenes per 7 days. Compare this with
which adds something like six or seven scenes per 7 days - underwhelming to say the least.
Am I going to say to avoid this site? No, because there is some really unique stuff on here, like the masturbation techniques of some of the girls (e.g. Mercedes), and there are also a content from a few girls that I like whose content is hard to find (e.g. Adara Star under the alias Adera). But, the 70 rating is warranted; there is a lot this site can do to improve, and the first thing would be to update their outdated page layout - get with the Web 2.0 revolution, please!

- only 9.95 a month because of TBP dicount
-Frequent updates( small updates), a couple times a week
-Seems to be genuine female orgasms
-111 models
-260 videos
-374 pic sets
- exclusive content
-110 stories about girls and masturbation
-No extra websites come with it, not even yanksvideos website.
-Only 2 video formats quicktime and WMV, in both high and low . Video quality lacks, some fuzzy videos
-not enough good closeups or girls who cum milky wet
-No full scene video of everything such as interview and masturbation into 1 video.
-Models could be better looking
-pics are average at best
-only 48 extra pics, and 27 extra videos of poor quality
Bottom Line:
-Seems like there are a lot of videos but really it isnt that much, every girl has a short interview which is a movie. Also some really short clips . Also some of the pic galleries are just sheets of papers where the girl answers questions about orgasms.
-A few lesbian videos , a few male help videos in which he uses a vibrator on the girl, and mostly solo masturbation.
-Comes with some free videos and pic sets from girlsandfingers, solonation, billiesbitches, masturbationpages, yanksvideos, whisperinglily, clubstroke, mr.skin,
I Shot Myself
Beautiful Agony
, I feel myself,
The Female Orgasm
, Masturbating porn stars, and squirt it. Usually about 4 full videos per site and 3 pic sets. Varies though. It also comes with some stream sites like cherry spot, swallow my net, jizz jugglers, and about 15 more. Very low quality though.
-There is a chat area and forum but thats for free, you dont need to be a member to partake.
-The main reason I joined is for the 9.95 reduced price from $29.89. This site is definetly not worth 29.89 or 19.95 for that matter. But for 9.95 its worth joining. You get to see girls using toys and their fingers to get off, some orgasms are more intense then others. These girls are mostly amateur with only a few pornstars such as Nicole Brazzle, Taylor St.Claire, Sarah Blake, and maybe 2 more. But basically all the other girls I have never seen before on any other porn site.

I think the best thing going there are the user photos and stories. Doesn't take too long before you start to recognize the same models in the photo shoots, but the user pics are real and always getting updated. Stories are a great read, too. Have had some good interactions with some of the other members there, as well, and the only thing better than having fun alone is doing it with someone else, so that's always nice.
I didn't see anything wrong... the previous review felt the site was hard to navigate, but quite frankly I had a far more difficult time moving around this site than I did
Bottom Line:
I think it's a fantastic value for the money. TONS of user photos (very nice specimens!) and some great stories if you like to read. Also, for the bi-crowd, there are bonus areas that will take you for a spin with some quality girl-content, too.

Two Tahitian Girls
Art Print by Paul Gauguin | #83579
After being unable to conform to the life of a bourgeois gentlemen Paul Gauguin left his put upon wife, five children and job at the bank to pursue his dream of becoming an artist, travelling to Tahiti to paint the island and its community. Imagining an exotic paradise, the artist's hopes were dashed upon arrival to find a colonised, christianised community. In spite of this Gauguin's depictions of the place show a tropical paradise, free from the burdens of respectability and sexual restraint, with the focus of his work overwhelmingly the native women. In keeping with this ideal the works are painted in bold vibrant colours, signalling a clear break from impressionism. With infrequent trips made back to Paris Gauguin became an increasingly tragic figure, his work failed to make any impact and he became attached to the myth he'd created, unwilling to move back to France in fear of losing face. Despite being unable to sell his works during his lifetime, Gauguin's Tahitian paintings sell for tens of millions, considered amongst the most important of post-impressionist works.
This high quality print was produced on fine art paper providing beautiful colours and impressive detail.

We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

Newly Adopted Labor Regulations
The U.S. Department of Labor ("DOL") has adopted (effective August 2004) new regulations affecting employers.1 The new regulations focus primarily upon "white collar exemptions" included in the provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("The Act").2 That Act was designed to, and still does, cover issues of minimum wages, work hours, and overtime pay. The new regulations are intended to clarify the Act's white collar exemptions, focused primarily on executive, administrative, and professional type employees. These are the first regulations to attempt to clarify the Act's exemptions since 1949. In clarifying the exemptions, the DOL hopes to, among other things, increase overtime pay protection for millions of employees.3
Camp organizations are concerned about the breadth of the new regulations and their potential application to the camp industry. Here, we provide a brief overview of the Act, its new regulations, and potential impact. This article is no substitute for the advice of informed legal counsel, who can analyze compliance issues specific to each organization's operation and any applicable state laws.
Important News
Background of the Act
The Act exempts certain organizations and employees from its requirements. Non-exempt employees of certain "covered enterprises" are subject to the Act. A covered enterprise is one which has at least two employees engaged in interstate commerce (a very broad category of activities, which generally will include camps), and has gross annual sales or a "business volume" in excess of $500,000 (or was a covered enterprise on March of 1990 when the law was changed to increase this gross sales figure to $500,000). Other enterprises are specifically described as "covered," including hospitals, schools, etc. The employee, to be subject to the Act, must be a bona fide employee, that is, not an independent contractor, volunteer, or a trainee. The Act describes factors to assist in identifying independent contractor, trainee or volunteer status. Employees of enterprises that are not "covered enterprises" may also be subject to the Act, if their work regularly involves them in commerce between the states. The breadth of the Act's coverage indicates that most camp's employees would be covered, absent exemptions. Certainly, work with your legal counsel to determine these coverage issues.
Penalties for failure to comply with the Act (e.g., failure to pay overtime by mis-classifying an employee or otherwise) include: payment of the sums wrongfully withheld, applicable liquidated damages, and, if a willful violation can be shown, certain penalties and potential imprisonment.6 A dispute in this regard may be handled administratively, before an office of the DOL, or the aggrieved employee may file suit. Again, consult with counsel regarding these procedures.
Existing FLSA Exemption for Employees of Seasonal Amusement or Recreational Establishments and Other Related Entities
Importantly, the new regulations do not interpret or change an existing FLSA exemption for employees of ". . . amusement or recreational establishments, organized camp(s), or religious or nonprofit educational conference center(s) . . ." that operate no more than seven months a year, or whose income during two consecutive six-month periods in a calendar year does not exceed certain levels.7 This exemption would appear to cover many "seasonal" camp organizations, exempting those organizations from the Act's requirements, and potentially eliminating the need to consider the Act's new regulations regarding white collar exemptions. Camp organizations should have their employment law counsel analyze this exemption closely, as those organizations consider compliance issues.
Caution! Consider Stricter State Laws
Whether considering the application of these new regulations or the application of other portions of the Act, such as the "Seasonal Amusement" exemption, camp organizations are cautioned to have employment law counsel review existing state law. As noted in the Regulations8, the Act and its interpretive regulations are minimum standards only. Therefore, organizations must comply with stricter state laws — those states that may offer more generous benefits, or fewer exemptions (for example, states that may not allow an exemption for Seasonal Amusement type entities or may require a higher minimum wage or overtime pay).9
Snapshot of the New Regulations
The focus of the new regulations, again, is white collar exemptions. Generally, the policy behind the Act's exemptions is the recognition that salaried employees who are better paid, often entitled to fringe benefits and bonuses, and whose job duties include the exercise of judgment, management, and oversight, do not need benefits such as overtime pay. In addition, there was recognition that overtime pay would be difficult to quantify for salaried employees.10 The new regulations clarify exemptions from overtime for several classes of these "salaried" employees, including executive, administrative, and professional employees, in addition to outside salesmen, computer and "highly compensated" employees.11 The general criteria for these white collar exemptions include an employee's payment on salary basis, a minimum salary payment, and performance of primary duties in executive, administrative, and professional-type occupations.
Regulations affecting substantially all these categories include:
- A job title is not sufficient to justify an employee's exempt status; generally, salary and duties will define the exemption12;
- In addition to any other applicable requirements, to qualify as an exempt employee in one of the listed categories, the employee must be paid a salary of at least $455 per week ($23,600 per year), . . . exclusive of board, lodging, or other facilities13;
- To qualify as exempt under any of the listed categories, the employee's "primary duty" must be in the performance of exempt work; actual time spent performing exempt duties is an important factor, but not the sole criteria for determining an employee's primary duty/ies14;
- The exempt categories do not include employees training for executive, administrative, professional, outside sales or computer employee positions who are not actually performing the duties in those positions15;
- Workplace emergencies — an exempt employee will not lose their exempt status by performing emergency related nonexempt work16;
- Employees who perform a combination of exempt duties that cross categories — for example, someone whose primary duty involves exempt administrative and executive work, may qualify for an exemption.17
Regulatory changes and clarifications highlighted by category:
Executive employees: In addition to applicable salary requirements, clarification that an executive employee's "primary duty" must be . . . management of the enterprise . . . ; that they customarily direct the work of two or more employees; and that they have the authority to "hire or fire" or that their comments in that regard will be given "particular weight."18
Administrative employees: In addition to applicable salary requirements, clarification that an administrative employee's "primary duty" must be the performance of . . . office or non-manual work directly related to . . . management of the employer's general business operations or customers, and that the employee's work involve the . . . exercise of discretion and independent judgment . . . in important matters.19
Professional employees: In addition to applicable salary requirements, clarification that a professional employee's "primary duty" must be performing work requiring advanced knowledge in science or fields requiring a . . . prolonged course of specialized intellectual instruction . . . or, work requiring invention, imagination, or talent . . . in a field or artistic or creative endeavor.20
Outside salesmen: Clarification that an outside sales employee's "primary duty" must be in making sales or obtaining orders for the employer, and . . . customarily and regularly . . . working away from the employer's place of business in this work. (No salary requirements here.)21
Computer employees: In addition to applicable salary or pay requirements, clarification that a computer employee's "primary duty" must include: the analysis, creation, design, testing, etc., of computer systems.22
Highly compensated employees: A highly compensated employee must make at least $100,000 in annual compensation (including the minimum salary discussed above) and . . . customarily and regularly perform . . . any one or more of the exempt duties of an executive, administrative, or professional employee.23 The rationale for this category is that significant compensation is a "strong indicator" of exempt status, eliminating the need for a detailed analysis of the employee's job duties.
How Does this Affect Camp Organizations?
A comprehensive analysis of the Act's new regulations is beyond the scope of this article; however, here are some thoughts:
- Have your legal counsel closely examine the exemption for amusement or recreational establishments, organized camps, and religious or nonprofits discussed earlier in this article. If your camp falls within that exemption, adherence to, or compliance with these new regulations governing the white collar exemptions may not be necessary.
- The increased salary requirements (to meet the exemptions) do not include board and lodging.
- Under the new regulations, an employee who makes less than $455 a week is covered under the Act (not exempt), even if his duties meet the other criteria of a "white collar" worker. However, an employee who makes the minimum salary is not entitled to an exemption unless he or she meets the white collar exemption criteria.
Let's consider the application of the new regulations to two typical camp staff positions: a director of maintenance who supervises others and a camp counselor who has some twenty-four-hour-a-day responsibilities and shares a cabin with campers. What exemptions from the regulations and the Act — its minimum-wage, maximum-hour, and overtime provisions — might apply to either or both of these positions?
The initial inquiry would be to determine if the camp is covered under the Act — i.e., is the camp a "covered enterprise" (see previous discussion). In addition, are the director and counselor both employees? [If they are employees and work in interstate commerce, notwithstanding the "covered enterprise" issue, it appears they would be covered under the Act (see previous discussion)]. The director of maintenance is most often an employee, although in some camp situations, the counselor may be an independent contractor or an unpaid volunteer or trainee. In the latter case, camp legal counsel should analyze the requirements under the Act for its description of bona fide nonemployee status. Qualifications for a volunteer include: no expectation or receipt of compensation, that the work done is "toward public service, religious, or humanitarian objectives," and that the volunteer does not replace genuine employees. The criteria for establishing a person as a trainee are much more difficult to meet. Whether you are seeking to qualify the counselor, or other position, as an independent contractor, volunteer, trainee, or other "nonemployee," seek the help of qualified legal counsel, for these provisions are quite complex.
Additionally, even if the Act applies, an important initial inquiry is whether a Section 213(a)(3) exemption (covering employees of amusement or recreation establishments, organized camps, and religious or nonprofit education centers) applies. Relevant to the inquiry would be, primarily, whether your camp ("organized" or not) qualifies as one of these establishments (and meets the seasonality requirements [months of operation or revenue distribution]). In this scenario, neither the director nor the counselor is entitled to coverage under the Act, including overtime that may be available by virtue of the new regulations. However, the camp and its legal counsel must consider applicable state law. If, for example, state law is more generous in allowing overtime pay than the federal Act and its regulations, the camp may not be able to rely on the 213(a)(3) exemption.
If at this point in your analysis you have found no exemption for the counselor or the director, your lawyer may look at the new regulations regarding white collar exemptions. As discussed above, the availability of these exemptions depends upon the status of the employee as salaried, the amount of the salary, and whether his or her duties meet specific executive, administrative, professional, or other criteria. It appears unlikely that a counselor would meet the minimum salary criteria ($455 per week), (or the executive, management, or administrative prerogatives included in the white collar exemptions) and would therefore not be exempt under the white collar provisions. However, the director of maintenance may well qualify if he or she earns a salary more than the minimum amount specified, and performs duties described in any one of the several categories previously identified. Note that the director may qualify for an exemption even if his duties represent a combination of exempt duties crossing the various categories of white collar employees. (The regulations state: [t]hus, for example, an employee whose primary duty involves a combination of exempt administrative and exempt executive work may qualify for exemption). Also note that the maintenance director may be exempt even if he is not supervising others (for example, he or she fulfills the criteria of an exempt "administrative" employee).
Note that the director who receives compensation of at least $100,000 per year (including at least $455 per week as salary or fees), and customarily and regularly performs at least one of the executive, administrative, or management duties described in the regulations, is also exempt.
Again seek the advice of counsel in these matters. While the new exemptions have for their announced purpose, in part, the simplification and clarification of existing provisions of the Act, they, and other provisions of the Act, are complicated.
How to Evaluate Compliance?
- Work with informed legal counsel to examine the regulations vis-à-vis your operation. Make sure that your legal counsel examines both state and federal law (refer to "Caution! Consider Stricter State Laws" on page 4 regarding the potential for stricter state laws).
- Consider an audit that can assist your organization in evaluating compliance with the new regulations. Qualified legal counsel may be able to conduct such an audit, or suggest other experts to do so.
Next Steps
Understanding the new regulations under the FSLA and the potential impacts of the Act within the camp industry is the first step in quelling the concern your camp may have about the far-reaching effects of these regulations. This brief overview of the Act, including an informative snapshot of the regulations and examples of applicability to camps, is designed to help you prepare to take the next steps to ensure your camp meets the new regulatory requirements and, if necessary, consult with informed legal counsel.

UBS News Alert
UBS launches USD 2 billion Basel III-compliant loss-absorbing notes
Zurich/Basel, 22 February 2012 – UBS announced today that it is issuing USD 2 billion of subordinated loss-absorbing non-dilutive notes. The notes, which will qualify as tier 2 capital under Basel III standards and have a maturity of 10 years with an optional call at year 5, will pay a non-deferrable coupon of 7.25%. The loss absorption trigger is set at a 5% common equity ratio, with the ratio calculated under the prevailing regulatory regime, being Basel 2.5 until year end 2012, and "phased-in" Basel III thereafter until those new rules become fully applicable on 1 January, 2019.
The notes were offered in minimum denominations of USD 200,000 and were widely placed with private and institutional investors in Asia and Europe.
Group Chief Financial Officer Tom Naratil said: "Today's capital issuance represents an important step in our compliance with Basel III/ FINMA capital requirements and is a further proof point that we are delivering on our capital plans. The very competitive coupon of 7.25% for this 10-year benchmark-size offering reflects UBS's strong capital, liquidity and funding position. Today's deal marks the beginning of an issuance program as we build our loss-absorbing capital base to meet FINMA and the Basel Committee requirements for systemically important banks well in advance of the regulatory deadlines."

I don't know why I'm telling you all about this but a friend of mine has been missing for hours now and I don't know what to do.
She's an old teacher of mine that kept in touch over the years, and I know this sounds kind of weird, but she's like family and I love her to death. I was supposed to meet her in this stupid little town for a festival the locals throw every year and now nobody can find her anywhere. I didn't even want to go to this stupid thing in the first place, but she insisted I go out and try to meet people instead of sitting at home reading.
She doesn't have a cell phone because she insists on communicating with nothing but handwritten mail. That seems kind of outdated, right? Anyway, it's our thing and I humor her because I think it's funny but now it's a serious problem because nobody can get ahold of her.
The police are a complete non-entity out in this backwater shit hole and I'm afraid of what will happen to her by the time the any real search gets underway. I need some serious advice because I think I know who did it.
There are some others I met who also think some messed up shit went down and we're about to go out looking for some answers.
Most people don't know it, but my friend has a pretty fucked up past and I think it finally caught up with her. She's got this psychotic younger sister that absolutely hates her guts. I only mention this because she showed up at the party tonight and said some threats that leads me to believe she has something to do with it.
So anyway, the only way to stop her younger sister is by using these artifacts called the Elements of Harmony, but we have no idea where to find them or if they even still exist.

Manufacturer: Knoll
Knoll was founded in 1938 by Hans and Florence Knoll who sought to create new types of furniture and environments for the home and workplace. Their approach was to join craftsmanship with technology through the use of design and to create beautiful home furnishings that stood the test of time visually, functionally and practically. The pair sought out designers willing to change the landscape of modern design, daring to ask how furniture could work better. These landmark collaborations, with pioneering modernists like Eero Saarinen, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Harry Bertoia and Richard Schultz built a brand that today contains many of the hallmarks of modern design.
Knoll enjoys brand recognition throughout the world for its modern classics as well as groundbreaking new products formulated under new designer partnerships. Few companies can match the array of Knoll products, which combine a modernist aesthetic with residential appeal. This point of view nurtured by Florence Knoll, has become the trademark of Knoll design. Today, it connects to a new generation seeking workplaces and homes that are comfortable for and beautiful for everyday living.
The highly coveted Barcelona® Chair is, with little doubt, the signature Knoll piece. Designed in 1929 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, it is one of the most recognized objects of the last century, and an icon of the modern movement. Skilled craftsman construct this exquisite chair by hand every day. From leather produced from a single cowhide, 40 individual leather panels are cut, hand-welted, and hand-tufted with leather buttons to upholster the chair. Premium cushions are highly resilient with a down-like softness that surrounds the sitter in luxurious comfort. Cushions are suspended by upholstery straps in cowhide belting leather over a metal frame that is hand-ground and hand-buffed to a mirror finish. Meticulously detailed, Barcelona continues to appeal to customers worldwide some 85 years after its introduction.
The Knoll names offers a rich design history - a legacy of iconic designers and inventive new collaborations. Their focus on quality and responsible manufacturing means that each piece transcends multiple generations in both use and appeal. Knoll offers furniture, accessories, textiles, felts and leathers that stimulate the senses and allow you to express who you are and what you value. They take great pride in creating the best possible product and the happiest possible customer.

Kidney and Urologic Diseases
There are many organizations who provide support for patients and medical professionals. View the full list of Kidney and Urologic Disease Organizations. (PDF, 345 KB)
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), through its Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases, supports the following programs and studies to help improve treatment for people with kidney disease and kidney failure, including patients on HD:
The End-Stage Renal Disease Program. This program promotes research to reduce medical complications of kidney failure, including bone, blood, nervous system, metabolic, digestive, heart, and hormone problems. The research focuses on improving dialysis equipment and procedures. The program also seeks to increase kidney graft and patient survival and to improve quality of life.
The Frequent Hemodialysis Network (FHN). This multicenter clinical trial will test whether HD done more than three times a week has better outcomes than the standard schedule. The FHN is testing two ways to increase the dialysis dose at Clinical Centers in the United States and Canada. The FHN Daily Trial compares standard HD, done for at least 2.5 hours, 3 days per week, with more frequent HD done for 1.5 to 2.75 hours, 6 days per week. The FHN Nocturnal Trial compares standard home HD done 3 days per week with nightly home HD done 6 nights per week.
The U.S. Renal Data System (USRDS). This national data system collects, analyzes, and distributes statistics on the use of dialysis and transplant to treat kidney failure in the United States. The USRDS is funded by the NIDDK and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The USRDS publishes an Annual Data Report, which covers how many people have kidney failure, how many people get kidney failure each year, survival rates, and trends over time. The report also compiles data on the effects of the different treatment options and shares the findings of special research studies.
The Hemodialysis Vascular Access Clinical Trials Consortium. This program is conducting a series of multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled studies of drug treatments to reduce the failure and complication rate of arteriovenous grafts and fistulas in HD. New drugs to stop blood clots and reduce inflammation are also being tested.

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - Despite the recession and unemployment, Maine's manufacturing companies say they have jobs each year they can't fill. And they worry the problem will grow worse in the years ahead, as more current workers retire, and fewer younger workers step up to fill the jobs.
That's why the Manufacturers Association of Maine today announced a new project to reach out to students across the state, to try to interest them in careers or jobs in manufacturing. Members of the MAM joined with Governor paul LePage to make the announcement.
The MAM says Maine has 51,000 manufacturing jobs now, and that wages for those jobs average 28% higher than other industries in Maine. Leaders of several businesses spoke of how their workforce and Maine's workforce is aging, and the widespread concern that there won't be enough younger workers "in the pipeline" to replace them.
The MAM project is focused on building stronger connections between manufacturing businesses and schools. Business leaders say they plan to go to the schools to tell students about job opportunities, and bring students into the plans to show them the kinds of high-tech work that's being done today. The MAM also plans to use websites and videos to reach out to young people to interest them in manufacturing. The project is being given $50,000 from the Maine department of Economic and Community Development, MAM leaders say that will be matched by larger donations from member businesses, to pay the costs of the outreach program.
Governor LePage reiterated some of his criticism of K-12 schools, saying they need to do a better job of preparing students for careers, and recognize that not all students should go to four year colleges. However, the Governor praised Maine's Community Colleges, and said that system needs to be expanded to meet the current demand for training and education, as well as future growth. The Governor said he is "working on a plan" to accomplish that.

Jays' WBB Use Dominant Defense to Advance Past SIU, 60-43
ST. CHARLES, Mo. - The No. 2 seeded Creighton WBB team held No. 10 Southern Illinois to just nine points in the first half the Jays downed the Salukis, 60-43, in the quarterfinals of the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament on Friday, March 15.
The victory moved Creighton to 24-6 this season, while Southern Illinois concluded the 2012-13 year with a 5-26 record.
Leading 4-2 at the first media timeout (15:43), Creighton scored 19 of the next 23 points to claim a 23-6 lead. Junior Jordan Garrison ignited the run for the Jays, scoring the first five points following the timeout. Garrison converted a back-door layup, then nailed Creighton's first trey of the game to make it 9-2.
Ball movement supplied the ensuing eight points as freshman Marissa Janning nabbed a layup, junior Carli Tritz delivered a short jumper from the right corner, sophomore Alexis Akin-Otiko dropped in two free throw and junior Sarah Nelson tossed in a left-handed layup.
Once her teammates on the floor had all scored, Garrison delivered a second three-ball to make it 20-4 with 7:47 on the clock. Following an SIU bucket, Tritz capped the run with a three-pointer from well beyond the right wing.
Creighton held SIU to just one more bucket the rest of the half to take a 31-9 lead in at the half. The Salukis shot just 3-of-19 (15.8%) from the field in the opening period, a season-low for a Bluejay opponent.
The Jays extended their lead to 25 points early in the second period at 38-13 and cruised to the 60-43 win.
Garrison and Janning led Creighton with 11 points, while junior Alyssa Kamphaus grabbed 12 rebounds. Southern Illinois got a game-high 20 points from Rishonda Napier.
Creighton advances to face the winner of the final game at the MVC Tournament on Friday, No. 3 Illinois State and No. 6 Bradley. That contest will begin at 8:30 p.m. CT
Creighton held Southern Illinois to nine points in the first half, the first time since at least 1998 the Jays have held an opponent to single digits in a period ... Head coach Jim Flanery tied a career-high with his 24th victory of the season, Flanery also had 24 wins in 2002-03 & 2003-04 ... Since the MVC Tournament expanded to 10 teams in 2007, the No. 10 seed has won twice (2009 & 2013), both times the team has fell to No. 2 Creighton in the quarterfinals.
