Quarterly Report
The following analysis discusses changes in financial condition and results of operations at and for the three months ended September 30, 2012 for the Company, the Bank, its principal and wholly-owned subsidiary, PVFSC, a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary, Mid Pines Land Company, a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary, and PVF Holdings, Inc., PVF Community Development and PVF Mortgage Corporation, three wholly-owned and currently inactive subsidiaries.
Forward-Looking Statements
When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area, and competition that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. Additional factors that may affect the Company's results are discussed under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company advises readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements.
The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly release the results of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events except as and required by law.
Financial Condition
Consolidated assets of the Company were $779.1 million as of September 30, 2012, a decrease of approximately $12.3 million, or 1.6%, as compared to June 30, 2012. The Company's regulatory capital ratios for Tier 1 (core) capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, and total risk-based capital were 9.16%, 12.06%, and 13.34%, respectively, at September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, the Company's cash and cash equivalents, which consist of cash, interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold, totaled $114.6 million, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 4.6%, as compared to June 30, 2012. The change in the Company's cash and cash equivalents consisted of increases in cash of $11.1 million and a decrease in interest bearing deposits of $16.6 million as the Company deployed a portion of its liquidity to fund the reduction in deposits and reduce its cost of funds.
The Company continued the origination of fixed-rate, single-family loans in its marketplace, with most originated for sale in the secondary market rather than for its portfolio. The origination and sale of fixed-rate loans has historically generated gains on sale and allowed the Company to increase its investment in loans serviced, without assuming the interest-rate risk associated with holding long-term fixed-rate assets, which facilitates the maintenance of stronger liquidity levels. Mortgage application volume has remained elevated in the current quarter, due to a low interest rate environment.
Loans receivable increased by $1.6 million, or .3%, during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The Company continued its strategic focus on the origination of high quality commercial and industrial loans and select commercial real estate loans, experiencing growth in performing loans of approximately $3.7 million, or .7%, during this same period. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded net charge-offs of $1.0 million. The desired decline in nonperforming loans, $2.2 million or 11.01% from June 30, 2012 is due to the successful disposition of problem and nonperforming loans combined with the results of problem loan charge-offs. The Company historically recognized specific impairment on individual loans through the use of specific valuation allowance, but did not charge off the impaired loan amount until the loan was disposed and removed from the loan accounting system. The loan balances were reported in the loan totals, including nonperforming loans, at the contractual amount and the specific allowance was included and reported as part of the allowance for loan losses. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company implemented an enhanced loan accounting system, which provides for the systematic recording of charged-off loans for financial recognition without losing its ability to track the legal contractual amounts. As such, during the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company charged off those loan amounts which had previously been specifically impaired through the use of a specific valuation allowance, totaling approximately $0.7 million and $11.8 million, respectively. In addition to reducing loan balances, including nonperforming loans, the implementation of this new enhanced loan accounting system had the impact of elevating reported charge-offs for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and reducing the allowance for loan losses associated with specific valuation allowances this same period. The remaining decline in nonperforming loans was the result of net dispositions and transfers to other real estate owned. The Company continues to sell almost all new residential loan production in the secondary market in this interest rate environment, as the Company manages its interest rate and liquidity risk along with its capital ratios. As the Company continues to make meaningful progress in its problem asset resolution, it intends to continue accelerating the origination of commercial and industrial loans for its portfolio as part of its plan to diversify the balance sheet.
The Company does not originate sub-prime loans and only originates Alt A loans for sale, without recourse, in the secondary market. The Company considers subprime borrowers typically to have weakened credit histories that include payment delinquencies and possibly more severe problems such as charge-offs, judgments and bankruptcies. They may also display reduced repayment capacity as measured by credit scores, debt-to-income ratios, or other criteria that may encompass borrowers with incomplete credit histories. Subprime loans are loans to borrowers displaying one or more of these characteristics at the time of origination or purchase. The Company also does not originate any hybrid loans, low-doc/no-doc loans or payment option ARMs. All one-to-four family loans are underwritten according to agency underwriting standards. Exceptions, if any, are submitted to the Company's board loan committee for approval. Any exposure the Company may have to these types of loans is immaterial.
The decrease of $5.3 million in loans receivable held for sale as of September 30, 2012 was the result of steady new loan originations and timing differences between the origination and the sale of loans. One-to-four family mortgage application volume has remained elevated in the current period as a result of lower interest rates, resulting in higher refinancing activity and related revenue.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, other real estate owned decreased $.5 million. The activity for the period consisted of the addition of properties totaling approximately $.8 million, offset by
The Company generally seeks to fund loan activity and liquidity by generating deposits through its branch network and through the use of various borrowing facilities. Deposits decreased by $9.8 million, or 1.5%, which was a result of an increase of $12.9 million in non-maturing deposits partially offset by a decrease of $22.8 million in retail certificates of deposit. The decline in retail certificates of deposit was strategically directed as part of management's relationship pricing initiative which targeted rate sensitive, non-relationship deposits for reduction coupled with an emphasis on increasing commercial deposits. Management will continue to modify its noncore deposit strategies to support the funding needs of the Company's loan activities, while maintaining appropriate liquidity levels, as it executes its strategies to diversify its funding mix by expanding core deposit relationships and building business deposits.
The increase in advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance of $2.5 million for the period ended September 30, 2012 was attributable to timing differences between the collection and payment of taxes and insurance. The increase of $7.1 million in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily the result of timing differences between the collection and remittance of funds received on loans serviced for investors.
Results of Operations: Three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to three months ended September 30, 2011.
The Company's net income is dependent primarily on its net interest income,
which is the difference between interest earned on its loans and investments and
interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is determined
by: (i) the difference between yields earned on interest-earning assets and
rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities ("interest-rate spread"); and
(ii) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's interest-rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand, the collectibility of loans, and deposit flows. Net interest income also includes amortization of loan origination fees, net of origination costs.
The Company's net income is also affected by the generation of non-interest income, which primarily consists of loan servicing income, service fees on deposit accounts, and gains on the sale of loans held for sale. In addition, net income is affected by the level of operating expenses, loan loss provisions, and costs associated with the acquisition, maintenance and disposal of real estate.
The Company recognized a net profit for the three months ended September 30, 2012 of $1.6 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, for the prior-year comparable period. The increase in income is the result of an increase in net interest income of $.6 million, a decrease in the provision for loan losses, of $.5 million and an increase in noninterest income primarily associated with mortgage banking activity of $1.6 million offset by an increase in operating expenses of $.3 million.
Net Interest Income
Despite lower interest earning assets and liabilities, net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $0.6 million, as compared to the prior-year comparable period. Interest income increased slightly with a larger decline realized in interest expense. Total interest income decreased $0.01 million during the current period compared with the same period in the prior year. A continued effort to replace nonperforming loans with performing loans as well as the change in mix of cash and available for sale securities to acquire better yielding assets limited the decline in yield during the ongoing low rate environment. Total interest expense declined $.6 million from a year ago, partially due to a decline in deposits, but primarily due to the Company's ability to lower the cost funds. The low interest rate environment has allowed more repricing opportunities augmenting a more rapid decline in cost of funds.
The following table presents comparative information for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, with respect to average balances and average yields and costs for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities:
September 30, 2012 September 30, 2011 Average Average Average Average Balance Interest Yield/Cost Balance Interest Yield/Cost (dollars in thousands) Interest-earning assets Loans (1) $ 579,092 $ 6,986 4.83 % $ 584,752 $ 7,104 4.86 % Mortgage-backed securities 16,241 80 1.98 % 4,911 50 4.07 % Investments and other 129,776 345 1.06 % 151,019 244 0.65 % Total interest-earning assets 725,109 7,411 4.09 % 740,682 7,398 4.00 % Non-interest-earning assets 55,441 42,853 Total assets $ 780,550 $ 783,535 Interest-bearing liabilities Deposits $ 647,398 $ 1,326 0.82 % $ 651,711 $ 1,949 1.20 % Borrowings 36,028 270 3.00 % 36,135 272 2.98 % Total interest-bearing liabilities 683,426 1,596 0.93 % 687,846 2,221 1.29 % Non-interest-bearing liabilities 26,555 24,809 Total liabilities 709,981 712,655 Stockholders' equity 70,570 70,880 Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 780,551 $ 783,535 Net interest income $ 5,815 $ 5,177 Interest-rate spread 3.16 % 2.71 % Net yield on interest-earning assets 3.21 % 2.80 % Interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities 106.10 % 107.68 %
(1) Non-accruing loans are included in the average loan balances for the periods presented.
Provision for Loan Losses and Asset Quality
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, a provision for loan losses of $1.1 million was recorded to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management to be appropriate, based on management's evaluation of relevant factors, including the risk characteristics and trends of the loan portfolio, historic and current loss experience, current economic conditions and underlying collateral valuations. This compares with the $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011.
The Company implemented an enhanced loan accounting system in December 2011 which provides for the systematic recording of charged-off loans for financial recognition without losing its ability to track the legal contractual amounts. The Company charged off those loan amounts which had previously been specifically impaired. Remaining specific impairments known in prior periods as specific valuation allowances are now tracked as specific allocations to the allowance. In addition to reducing loan balances, including nonperforming loans, this new enhanced loan accounting system had the impact of elevating reported charge-offs for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 and reducing the allowance for loan losses associated with specific reserves. The provision for loan losses for the current period reflects management's judgments about the credit quality of the Company's loan portfolio. As of September 30, 2012, the allowance for loan losses no longer consists of a specific component and a general component. Rather, the allowance for loan losses maintains specific allocations where appropriate on loans where known risks have been identified but no clear loss has been quantified or deemed appropriate to be taken.
The following is a breakdown of the allowance for loan losses:
September 30, 2012 June 30, 2012 General allowance $ 14,683,135 $ 14,634,531 Specific allocation 1,452,505 1,418,334 Total allowance for loan losses $ 16,135,640 $ 16,052,865
The allowance for loan losses remained flat at 2.9% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2012, and June 30, 2012. The company recorded net charge-offs of $1.0 million for the current quarter down from the $2.4 million recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans improved to 90.3% at September 30, 2012, compared with 80.7% at June 30, 2012, which is attributable to the ongoing reduction in nonperforming loan balances. Adversely classified assets continue to show reductions falling to $38.4 million at September 30, 2012. Trends continue to reflect directional improvement, management remains cautious due to continued uncertainty surrounding macroeconomic indicators. Furthermore management desires additional time periods of improved conditions and asset quality indicators before releasing reserves.
Management's approach includes establishing a specific allocation by evaluating individual nonperforming loans for probable losses based on a systematic approach involving estimating the realizable value of the underlying collateral. Additionally, management establishes a general allowance for pools of performing loans segregated by collateral type. For the general allowance, management is applying a prudent loss factor based on historical loss experience, trends based on changes to nonperforming loans and foreclosure activity, and a subjective evaluation of the local population and economic environment. The loan portfolio is segregated into categories based on collateral type and a loss factor is applied to each category. The initial basis for each loss factor is the Company's loss experience
for each category. Historical loss percentages are calculated based on transfers from the general reserve to the specific reserve, indicating a loss has been incurred, for each risk category during the historical period and dividing the total by the average balance of each category. Presently, historical loss percentages are updated on a monthly basis using an 18-month rolling average. Subjective adjustments are made to the Company's historical experience, including consideration of trends in delinquencies and classified loans, portfolio growth, national and local economic and business conditions including unemployment, bankruptcy and foreclosures and effectiveness of credit administration, as appropriate.
A provision for loan losses is recorded when necessary to bring the allowance to a level consistent with this analysis. Management believes it uses the best information available to make a determination as to the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The current provision for loan losses is allocated by loan portfolio segment and lower historical loss factors resulted in recoveries in certain loan portfolio segments in the current period and are illustrated as a negative provision in Note 3 - Loans Receivable. The current period provision for loan losses reflects the continued level of elevated charge-offs during the period.
The total allowance for loan losses increased slightly during the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the quarter $1.0 million was provided to commercial real-estate, $.6 million to one-to-four family, and $.3 million to commercial and industrial segments. While the one-to four family allocation was a replacement of charge offs the commercial and industrial and commercial real-estate were additional allocations reflecting overall changes in the portfolio. The multifamily and land both saw a release of reserves of $.8 million and $.1 million respectively back into the general allocation. The portion of the provision associated with the multi-family category was reduced during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 due to multi-family construction loans being converted to amortizing loans thus resulting in a lower risk profile. The remaining portion of the provision was allocated between consumer and one-to-four family construction. These allocations more than covered the $1.0 million in net charge offs taken during the quarter.
The Company continues to aggressively review and monitor its loan portfolio. This review involves analyzing all large borrowing relationships, delinquency trends, and loan collateral valuation in order to identify impaired loans. This analysis is performed so that management can identify all troubled loans and loan relationships as well as deteriorating loans and loan relationships. As a result of this review, detailed action plans are developed to either resolve or liquidate the troubled loans and end the borrowing relationship.
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012 were as follows: September 30, June 30, (Dollars in thousands) 2012 2012 Loans on non-accruing status(1) Real estate mortgages: One-to-four family residential $ 8,131 $ 9,191 Commercial 4,405 4,571 Multi-family residential 6 325 Construction and land 5,084 5,551 Non real estate 238 438 Total loans on nonaccrual status $ 17,864 $ 20,076 Ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans 3.19 % 3.60 % Other nonperforming assets(2) $ 7,232 $ 7,734 Total nonperforming assets(3) $ 25,096 $ 27,927 Total nonperforming assets to total assets 3.22 % 3.51 %
The levels of nonperforming loans at September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012 were attributable to continued challenging local economic conditions. Residential markets nationally and locally have been adversely impacted by an elevated level of foreclosures, as a result of the problems faced by sub-prime borrowers and the resulting contraction of residential credit available to all but the most credit worthy borrowers. Land development projects nationally and locally have experienced slow sales and price decreases. The Company has significant exposure to the residential market in the Greater Cleveland, Ohio area. As a result, the Company continues to experience an elevated, but improving level of nonperforming loans. Due to an increase in foreclosure activity in the area, the foreclosure process in Cuyahoga County, the Company's primary market remains elongated. As such, loans have remained past due for considerable periods prior to being collected, transferred to other real estate owned, or charged off.
Non-Interest Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, non-interest income increased by $1.6 million from the prior-year comparable period. The increase in the current period was primarily attributed to higher income from net mortgage banking activities of approximately $2.1 million partially offset by higher provision for write downs and losses on the disposal of other real estate owned totaling $0.3 million. Also the Company did not sell the guaranteed portions on its Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan originations during the quarter. This compares with SBA gains of $0.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
The Company pursues a strategy of originating long-term fixed-rate loans pursuant to FHLMC and FNMA guidelines and selling such loans to the FHLMC or the FNMA, while retaining the servicing rights of such loans. The majority of the mortgage lending activities in the current environment continues to involve refinancing and is highly correlated to interest rate movements and levels. The net gains on loan origination and sales activities totaled $4.0 million for the current period, which represented an increase of $2.2 million
compared with the prior-year period of $1.8 million. The high level of refinancing in the current period resulted in a loan servicing loss of $0.9 million compared to $0.8 million in the prior-year comparable quarter end. The Company recorded a valuation impairment charge against the book value of the mortgage loan servicing rights of $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Gains and losses on the sale of other real estate owned, including write-downs, is recorded in non-interest income and was a net loss of $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, down from the net gains of $.1 million for the same prior-year period.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased by $0.3 million, or 5.0%, from the prior-year comparable period. This resulted from increased compensation of $.2 million, and outside service costs of $.3 million offset by lower other real estate owned expenses of $0.2 million.
The decrease to other real estate owned expense for the current period is . . .

Douglass High School principal resigns; investigation to be turned over to Oklahoma County district attorney
The principal accused of fixing grades and hiding absences at Douglass Mid-High School resigned Wednesday.
Brian Staples was suspended with pay two weeks ago. His resignation will go into effect Nov. 15, a date agreed upon by Staples and district officials.
Staples could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Superintendent Karl Springer declined to say the results of the four-month investigation, citing laws governing personnel issues.
"This situation has been extremely difficult for the students, staff and Douglass community," Springer said. "It has been difficult for us as well. ... It's time for us to continue the focus on the students of Douglass Mid-High and to really work to improve the issues associated with the school."
Springer said the investigation will be given to the U.S. Department of Education, the state Education Department and the Oklahoma County district attorney.
Springer said district officials are also reporting their findings to the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association. The investigation didn't find anything that would affect student eligibility to participate in school activities, he said.
A team of three administrators is now running Douglass, located at 900 Martin Luther King Ave.
"Douglass Mid-High School has a strong, rich tradition, and we will maintain the integrity of this great school," Springer said. "I am confident, because of the steps we are taking, that Douglass will emerge stronger."
A group of former teachers and students, along with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, first brought the allegations against Staples to the Oklahoma City School Board in June.
Allegations include hiding absences, giving students credit for classes they didn't take and changing failing grades to passing ones.
The district hired an independent attorney to investigate the claims.
Earlier this month, officials confirmed that complaints against Staples were filed with the U.S. Department of Education. A spokeswoman said the Office of Inspector General is reviewing the allegations.

Woman leaves ID at Walmart after attempted theft
Published: Saturday, December 28, 2013 at 5:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 28, 2013 at 5:22 p.m.
A 24-year-old Ocala woman whose wig and purse containing her identification were left behind at Walmart after deputies say she bit and punched two loss prevention officers on Friday has been arrested at her residence and charged with retail petit theft, battery and resisting a merchant, according to authorities.
At her Southwest 147th Lane Road home, Breanna La'Tedra Salmon told Deputy David Grantham and Adrian Lewis that she tried to take five tablets, which store officials said were valued at $248.70, to obtain money to help her mother pay the light bill, an arrest report states.
Deputy Edwin Velasquez's report says deputies went to the Walmart at 9570 SW State Road 200 in reference to a theft. Deputies were told the loss prevention officers noticed a woman, later identified as Salmon, removing items from the shelves and placing them in her pink purse.
Salmon then went to the Garden Center and attempted to exit the building without paying for the items in her purse, deputies said. Stopped by the loss prevention officers, Salmon bit one of the men on his hand and punched both men repeatedly in the face, the arrest report says.
Store managers, deputies said, responded to the scene and told the loss prevention officers to release the suspect, which they did, and she escaped in a vehicle. Velasquez recovered Salmon's purse, which contained her driver's license. He also found her wig and cellphone at the scene.
Using her identification, deputies were able to track down Salmon and arrest her.

"Pashupatinath, en route to Bodhnath" Pashupatinath by BarbaraForza
Pashupatinath Travel Guide: 18 reviews and 71 photos
Only 6 km from Kathmandu, on the eastern side, and an interesting walk from Pashupatinath, you can't miss the huge stupa of Bodhnath, the largest in Nepal and said to be one of the largest in the world.
Here it is where Nepal's most important Hindu temple stands, on the banks of Bagmati river.

Flips the scenario round from the original to great effect.
John Carpenter shows how much he loves the 1951 original by giving it the utmost respect that he possibly could, the only difference here is that Carpenter chooses to stick to the paranoiac core of John W Campbell Jr's short story.
The secret to this version's success is the unbearable tension that builds up as the group of men become suspicious of each other, the strain of literally waiting to be taken over takes a fearful hold.

Fred Davis sees how Redskins name 'could be kind of offensive'
The Redskins have politely intimated to their players that they shouldn't be speaking about the team's nickname. Tight end Fred Davis must not have gotten the memo.
Davis, appearing with our good friends Lavar Arrington and Chad Dukes on 106.7 the Fan in D.C., said he sees how Washington's nickname "could be kind of offensive."
"Whatever they do, I can't really have a say in it, and I could see how it could be kind of offensive," Davis said. "But you know, at the end of the day, I don't have control of that. All I do is put a jersey on and play football. If they call it Washington Redskins ... Fredskins ... I mean whatever you want to call it."
Yes, Davis suggested Fredskins. Like Dukes, I would also be into that.
It'll be interesting to see how the team responds to Davis, who did argue with Dukes that teams like the Indians, etc., would have to change their name if people are out there fighting against Redskins.
That logic certainly applies to a degree -- Indians is offensive but not nearly as offensive as Redskins. And Davis said that ultimately he wouldn't care and that he'd be fine if the team changed the name.
"I just feel like probably the history of it would change the way you know, people look at it, because damn, now they're changing it after all these years, but at the end of the day, it doesn't matter," Davis said. "I mean, you give us a name or not, we're going to go out their with some new cool jerseys and play football."
Unfortunately for anyone who's offended, owner Dan Snyder doesn't feel nearly the same way and will apparently fight to ensure that the Redskins name is never changed.

Average Review:
Wooden Loaf Mold With Sliding Bottom - This is not your ordinary wooden soap mold. Made out of top grade Russian Birch Plywood; the wood is nicely sanded but completely raw and unfinished. The sliding bottom has a lacquer finish. Without hinges or hardware, the bottom panel simply slides out to expose the underside of your soap. Once the sliding panel is removed the soap and liner can come out through the bottom of the mold. To reassemble, just slide the bottom back in and you're ready to go.
Dimensions: 2-3/4" (Height) x 3-1/2" (Width) x 17-1/8" (Length)
Capacity: 76 oz
Make this mold even easier to use with our silicone liner for 5 lb wooden molds!
We recommend hand washing all of your molds and pieces to make sure they last a lifetime
Once I got used to how big the mold was I quickly fell in love with it. I finally grew out of my little plastic molds from the craft store and had been looking for something to give my soap a more professional touch and I found it with this mold!! Very easy to use and the liner is a huge timesaver!!!!
I love the size and easy of sliding out the silicone liner for this mold with the removable bottem. I also really like the width and length. My new go-to size for my main line of soaps.
I just tried out this mold and its so beautifully crafted, you get what you pay for. I love the matching silicone liner, it was so easy to just drop the bottom out and remove the loaf.
I absolutely love this mold! Although I didn't buy the liner, unmolding is still a breeze using parchment paper! The trap door is wonderful. Just push sideways a little to break any seal that might be present. The quality is above my expectation...so much so, I didn't want to use it at first! If you're thinking about buying it, just do it! You will not regret this purchase, I promise!
i have this mold and the matching liner and it is now my favorite! Soap comes out with very smooth sides and edges!! I will get more of these! The soap pops right out! Easy clean up!! A good way to avoid the sides not staying up while you pour your soap is to take a damp cloth and lightly wet the outside of the liner where it meets the wood and it sticks very well...no clips or tape needed!
We're a friendly group who love social media. See you 'round the web!

|MOVIE ADVERTISING PLAYBACK SYSTEMS AND METHODS - An ad in a movie can be a static ad having a position in the movie that cannot be moved, or a dynamic ad having a position in the movie that can be changed. When a viewer of the movie wishes to skip a portion of the movie containing the ad, the playback system determines whether the ad is static or dynamic. If the ad is static, then only the portion of the movie preceding the static ad can be skipped, that is, the ad is unskippable; this technique is referred to as "bounceback" since the end of the skip bounces back to the start of the static ad. If the ad is dynamic, then the ad is moved to after the end of the skip; this technique is referred to as "slipad" since the ad slips to later in the movie. When a movie has multiple ads, some can be static and some can be dynamic.
|SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DRAG-AND-DROP DATA BINDING - A data binding system facilitates binding of a data component to a feature of a software component. Prior to the binding, a graphical indication of the software component and a graphical indication of the feature of the software component are displayed. In addition, an indication of an element of the data component is displayed in a display area approximately adjacent to the displayed software component. The data binding system receives a user input command to bind the data component to the feature of the software component. The user input command may include dragging the indication of an element of the data component from the data component display area to the feature of the software component and subsequently dropping it on the feature. As a result, the data binding system automatically generates script or code that provides executable instructions to bind the feature of the software component to the data component.
|SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DOCUMENT TRANSMISSION AND ROUTING WITH RECIPIENT CONTROL - Techniques for transmitting information to a recipient under their control are described. In some situations, the techniques are used in conjunction with a fax delivery system to provide, as part of a connection established to perform a fax transmission, a variety of functionalities to a human recipient that is participating as part of the connection, such as when the human recipient is contacted in error. In addition, in some situations, an interactive voice response system is used to receive and interpret input from a human recipient, such as in response to one or more control selections or options provided to the human recipient.
|METHOD, SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR EDITING MOVIES IN DISTRIBUTED SCALABLE MEDIA ENVIRONMENT - A movie editor converts a received movie into a proxy format, and creates a texture strip representing the frames of the movie. An editor can use the texture strip to edit the movie, rather than editing the movie directly. Deep tags and/or special effects can be defined for the texture strip using a graphical interface. The graphical interface enables movies to be combined into a playback product according to a control structure graphically presented in the graphical interface.
|METHOD, SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DISTRIBUTED VIDEO EDITING - A network editor comprises a central location with stored videos such as movies that can be edited by editors at remote locations. An editor receives a representation of a video, and specifies edits relative to the representation, enabling the editor to use a device lacking sufficient processing capability to edit the video directly, and also reducing the volume of information transmitted between the central location and the remote editor. The central location is able to provide the edited movie in a format suitable to the display capabilities of the viewing device of the viewer requesting the edited video.
|SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR EFFICIENT CACHING OF HIERARCHICAL ITEMS - Embodiments disclosed herein provide a "lazy" approach in caching a hierarchical navigation tree with one or more associated permission trees. In one embodiment, only a portion of a cached permission tree is updated. One embodiment of a method may comprise determining whether a dirty node exists by comparing tree timestamps of the permission tree and the master tree. If the tree timestamp of the master tree is temporally more recent than the tree timestamp of the permission tree, the permission tree has a dirty node and the method may operate to check node timestamps of the master and permission trees. This process may be repeated until the dirty node is found, at which time a portion of the permission tree associated with the dirty node may be reconstructed, rather than the entire permission tree itself, thereby eliminating or significantly reducing access time to the cached permission tree.
|NUMERIC VALUE DECAY FOR EFFICIENT RELEVANCE COMPUTATION - Search engines today are capable of incorporating numeric scoring modifiers from controlling applications into their relevance computations. Challenges arise in keeping these modifiers current, given that they may change over time. Embodiments provide a new way to compute numeric value decay for efficient relevance computation without having to rely on a controlling application. The controlling application can set a value for a modifier of an object managed by the controlling application and the controlling application can perform operations on the modifier. However, the controlling application does not need to keep track of the modifier and compute the modifier value independently. Rather, a search engine is configured to perform decay computation(s) and adjust the modifier value on a regular basis or on demand. The search engine ensures that modifier values for all the objects indexed by the search engine are always valid—within acceptable ranges and with acceptable adjustments.
|SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING A COLLABORATION PLACE INTERFACE INCLUDING DATA THAT IS PERSISTENT AFTER A CLIENT IS LONGER IN THE COLLABORATION PLACE AMONG A PLURALITY OF CLIENTS - In some embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods provide a client-server infrastructure capable of supporting a variety of asynchronous and synchronous collaboration activities in a so-called collaboration place. Some of these activities include chatting, viewing and/or editing one or more data files, and sharing one or more applications, data files, and/or displays. The client-server infrastructure supports seamless navigation between the supported asynchronous and synchronous activities in the collaboration place. Additionally, the client-server architecture supports data persistence, so that data files associated with the collaboration place can be stored for subsequent access.
|SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR MULTI-TENANT FACSIMILE SERVER - In embodiments disclosed herein disclose methods and systems for providing a multitenant facsimile server. The computer instructions may be executable to maintain a set of entity information, wherein the entity information defines a plurality of tenants, and maintain a database configured to store transmitted and received fax documents corresponding to a plurality of tenants. The computer instructions may be further executable to receive a facsimile document at the fax server, wherein the facsimile document comprises one of a document to be transmitted or a received fax. The computer instructions may be further executable to identify a tenant associated with the document based on an identifier. Further, the computer instructions may be executable to store the document in the database, wherein the document is associated with the tenant in the database.

Just a digitalisation of a sketch I did a few days ago. This came out way better than I expected it to c:
What do you think of the background? I hope it isn't too distracting ;_;
What do you think of the background? I hope it isn't too distracting ;_;
I love this piece, It really caught my eye, I love Fluttershy, she is my most favourite pony, I love the realistic hooves and the fur you gave her, and I really love the pretty cute face you did on her. I also love the glow and shine in her eyes. it give the good sense of "innocence" in her look. The flow of her mane just so amazing, and the shine and the hair strand texture you added is very attractive. I also love the detail in her wings. It also have very high quality highlights and shadows, this piece is very awesome. I love it. and besides, keep up with good work

The Artist thought this was FAIR
10 out of 11 deviants thought this was fair.
She's beautiful. :3
I just wanna hug her so much! c: nice job!
I still wish I could cuddle her >///<"
So sweet!
Cute drawing:3
She so cute! <3 aw it's okay I don't care about your background..but i love your Fluttershy's face so moe!
this is pretty damn cute.
Ug, one day she´s going to kill me of cuteness Great job, I love the details. By the way, her expression, esspcecially her eyes, are my favorite part
She looks so cute!!! Good job!!!
Wow, your highlights and shadows are great!
She looks so fluffy and hugable!!
Ok, she looks way too cute and cuddly even for Fluttershy.
Great work
Great work
What do I think of the background? I think it's pleasantly simple. The dark blue does well in just being there; its contrast with Fluttershy's light yellow coat and plumage really help her to stand out.
Hey, she's wearing a little...cute thing in her hair! I like it!
Hey, she's wearing a little...cute thing in her hair! I like it!
Awwww... she look adorable.
Well, it's natural with Fluttershy.
BEautiful work
Well, it's natural with Fluttershy.
BEautiful work
Oooww beautiful !!!
Raven: Is it me or is she a little bit too furry?
That is amazing and the background fits perfect no distraction there
Nah, the background's fine, and the outline around Fluttershutter puts greater emphasis on her.
Hmm... The cutie marks' stretched look doesn't feel particularly good in terms of accounting for the hip's curving surface, but at the same time it's not particularly bad either. Meanwhile, I really like the variation in wing shading and the fuzz on the chest and the defined fetlocks, as they make for a very cute and soft feeling, with the latter specifically reminding of the way pony hooves are. The wings being the way they are emphasise her body and her face, and her face is worthy of it: that depiction of captivated attention and wonder is just unbearably cute. Also, the added secondary locks of hair liven up her hairstyle and up the adorableness and beauty counts both.
The positioning of the back legs is mostly alright: although I would not have turned the lower parts so sharply inward, pony hooves can do that even without extra anthropomorphisation. The front legs are also positioned well enough, but there's something that makes them look a bit off: the low levels of shading there on their middle parts make them feel curved beyond pony ability without aforementioned anthropomorphisation. Still, it doesn't detract too much from the picture. But I do like the kind of soft, fragile look you gave them, as it makes me want to hug Flutters even more.
Well done!
Gorgeous! ;v;
and the bg looks adorable!
I really like how you shaded this too.
Oh is she beautiful! The butterfly in her hair is a nice touch!
looks delightful
Wow nice work !
