""Great Escape House" our vacation at Pine Mountain Lake"
This home is a family's vacation delight! The feel of the countryside, with all the modern conveniences; plus a full game room which delighted our teen grandchildren. Beautifully furnished, convenient to Yosemite, the local lake, and our river rafting adventure. To relax we enjoyed sitting on the huge balcony, watching deer pass by. A+ !!

We've been coming to PML for over 10 years and staying at the same property last 4-5 times. This house feels like home and we can't wait to come back. Thanks

"Pine Mountain Lake"
Lovely home, nice area, everyone is very friendly. Seems as though the community has not started a curbside recycling program yet. I'd recommend they do. Also be aware of many CC&R; restrictions to number of guests, number of cars, no street parking, swimming restrictions, etc. Good for the owners but I didn't like having to worry about so many rules. Still, overall a very fun get away and a beautiful area. We'd return.

"Big house, great for families"
The house is large, with a king bed, queen bed, two twins and a bunk bed, easily sleeping 8. The game room downstairs was a lot of fun, as was the fire pit out back. Be aware that you need to wash the sheets and towels before you leave and the washer and drier take a long time to run, so plan accordingly.

"Wonderful stay!"
We had a wonderful stay at this house. It was clean and had a lovely cosy feel to it. The town of Groveland is just up the road and is fun to check out, especially the "Iron Door Salloon". The house was relaxing, quiet and warm. We would definitely stay again!

"Nice house!"
Clean on arrival, spacious, comfortable, nicely furnished, slept 8 comfortably. We found the driveway easy for 3 cars. Although the final signed form indicates that you need to bring linens and towels, this house provides those. Kudos to the owners for sharing their house and the property management for keeping it in great shape!

"Very Happy"
My family and I had a great time at PML and are very happy with the property. We researched many properties in PML and are very happy with our choice. We comfortally slept 4 adults and 4 kids. The kitchen had everything we needed and could easily accomdate 3 adults in it at once. The kids loved the game room, horse shoe and fire pits. The only thing that could be frustrating at times was the inconsisent internet signal. The unit has DSL but I would get kicked off the internet multiple times. Besides that we were very happy with out stay and would stay there again.

"Pine Mountain Lake/Yosemite Family Vacation"
The house, lake and weather were all perfect.
The drive to Yosemite was simple and we had a great day there seeing lots of spectacular sights. The house was a good size for our 3 families. The property rental company was very helpful. We're sorry we didn't stay longer and hope to be back some time again.! Thanks!

"Great Vacation Experience"
This home is great for a family. It's large, clean, beds are comfortable, and has fun games in the game room. We enjoyed the lake. This house is too far to walk to the lake. Parking in the Marina Lot is a problem on the weekends, but there was plenty of spaces during the week. We were confused whether linens were included because the paperwork from booking stated it wasn't. This property does have sheets for the beds and towels, but you need to wash them before you leave, which means you'll need to get up early in order to checkout by 11 AM. We would stay here again. The management company was very helpful in answering questions about the house and area upon or arrival.

"perfect for us"
The house was spotless. Good quality linens and towels were included.
We loved the firepit in the evenings. We played pool and pingpong every night, there were games and movies available, and pretty much everything we needed.
A little far to get to Yosemite everyday, but the space and comfort of the house definitly made it worthwhile. We'd come back, maybe a little later in the season when we could enjoy the lake, which the kids would love!

"A Home Away from Home"
This house is beautiful and big! I loved looking out the kitchen window watching the deer. The game room was very entertaining for my teenage kids. I would definately rent this house again on vacation. I'm very picky about what kind of house I rent when I'm on vacation, this house was very clean and had a warm feel to it. The property managers were also really helpful.

We traveled with 3 teenagers who loved the game room and the Pine Mountain Lake. Our girls also did the horseback riding which they loved. We will definitely be coming back and would stay at this house again. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

"Nice place"
This is a very nice, clean place. Though we didn't have time to use it much, fire pit and the entire game room looked great. Really enjoyed high ceilings in the kitchen/dining area, great pantry, spacious light house. A few things that could be better: only 2 bathrooms and the entire downstairs area (one bedroom and a den that is also used as a 4th bedroom) do not have a bathroom. This is essentially a 3-level house and there are bathrooms on 2 levels only. Master bedroom and bathroom are huge and great. The house is in a nice quiet area but it's not wakable to any of the beaches. Other than that, great cozy place and we'd come back again.

"Groveland escape"
I was given the impression we would be closer to the lake when I reserved, at least bikeable with our son. I don't recall being quoted for the reservation fee till I received the receipt. We were told to bring towels and sheets, which I had to bring for 8 people, and it was available.
Michael S.
"Michael S.'s review of 08/253 Pine Mountain Lake"
The only problem with this property is the parking. The twin garages have been turned into a bonus room (with lots of games, so this is great) but this leaves only a very small, very steep semicircular driveway for parking (there is no street parking allowed in PML). We had two cars with one a large SUV, and it was quite a tight squeeze to make it work. Otherwise though this was a lovely property and easily the best unit of the three we have rented at PML.

"Chris B.'s review of 08/253 Pine Mountain Lake"
The property manager should be more informed about the property. We were told we had to bring all of our linens which were very bulky to pack to bring on a plane. When we got to the house, we found that all linens were included along with soaps, spices, and other amenities.

"Great place for Yosemite visit"
My family of 4 stayed here in June 07. The house was clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. The drive to Yosemite Valley floor was an easy 30 minutes or so. We visited Yosemite in the morning and played golf at the Pine Mountain Lake course in the afternoon. In morning & evening, deer would roam through the neighborhood. If you are visiting Yosemite and are not into camping, this is the way to go. Much more room than a hotel, with the comforts of home. Only slight drawback was the limited cooling ability of the HVAC system, but it wasn't a big deal. Overall, highly recommend!
David S.
"Pine Mountain Rental"
I found the interior of the house immaculate. The BBQ was difficult to operate and was filthy. I actually hosed down all the porch areas to clean the surfaces and wash away spiders and hosed down the entire driveway to clean up debris and eliminate extensive oil that could be tracked around if stepped on. THIS PROPERTY WAS DEFINITELY A HOME AWAY FROM HOME!

"Robert A.'s review of 08/253 Pine Mountain Lake"
My family had a great time in Groveland and Yosemite. The cabin was perfect and we had no problems what so ever! We will be back.

Oklahoma football: Heath Newland plans to walk on for the Sooners
EDMOND — The way Heath Newland sees it, there are two ways he could've reacted to Oklahoma's offer to make him a "preferred walk-on" in its 2013 recruiting class.
"You can take it as the school didn't want you, because they didn't respect you enough to give you a scholarship," said Newland, a four-year starter on Edmond North's offensive line.
"Or, you can look at it like you're borderline. They wanted you, they just couldn't give you a scholarship right now, so just go show them. Work hard every day."
Newland chose the latter, accepting the "preferred walk-on" offer that Sooners co-offensive coordinator Josh Heupel presented to him at school on Friday.
Heupel told the 6-foot-2, 285-pound Newland that the Sooners are OK when it comes to interior offensive linemen on scholarship, and that coaches' more pressing need is at offensive tackle.
Oklahoma loses senior tackle Lane Johnson next season; current sophomores Tyrus Thompson and Daryl Williams both have starting experience, but after that, the Sooners are extremely thin at tackle.
Redshirt freshman Derek Farniok has impressive size at 6-foot-9, 315 pounds, but is still raw and working to develop his skills. True freshman Kyle Marrs (6-5, 320) is redshirting this season, and Nathan Hughes (6-6, 248) switched from defensive end during fall camp.
Dylan Dismuke, a Duncan native and true freshman last year, took a medical hardship that prematurely ended his career because of a lingering knee injury. Will Latu, a junior-college transfer in last year's class, moved on before even enrolling at OU because of academic problems.
Then last week, OU's lone 2013 offensive tackle commit, Tulsa Union's Dalton Rodriguez, switched his commitment to Tulsa because he wants to play defense in college.
This weekend, though, Oklahoma is hosting 6-4, 267-pound tackle Nico Falah (Bellflower, Calif.), who has been committed to USC since July.
Three-star junior-college offensive tackle Matt Finnin (6-8, 330), from College of DuPage in Illinois, is set to visit Oklahoma Jan. 11.
As for Newland, though, he'll do everything the regular 2013 recruits do, but without the scholarship — yet.
"I'm exactly the same," Newland said. "I go on my official visit next month. I get the same packet that everybody gets. I'm on scout team just like the freshmen. I get a locker. I get a number. I'm on the team. I don't have to do tryouts. I'm on the same schedule. ... The whole shebang."
Oologah senior lineman Sam Noble (6-5, 285) is considering a similar offer from Oklahoma.
Newland is currently No. 15 on The Oklahoman's Super 30 list of the state's top prospects. He played center for most of his career at Edmond North; injuries forced him to play some at guard and tackle during his senior season, though, when the Huskies finished 10-2 and reached the Class 6A quarterfinals.
"Apparently I was one of those borderline guys," Newland said. "It's just the way the cards fell. It didn't go my way, but I'm still excited."

I just started using a Bluetooth keyboard. One thing I noticed is that sometimes the keyboard will get disconnected from the computer, but that could just be because the batteries are low. Now I'm thinking of switching my USB wireless mouse to a bluetooth mouse. Should I do it? Will the mouse have a problem of getting disconnected from the computer?
In terms of mice, does wireless USB have any advantage over Bluetooth technology?

A Vancouver man was sentenced Thursday to six years in prison for his role in an August 2012 gang-related shooting in Vancouver that left another man with gunshot wounds to the leg and foot.
Stefan A. Duran, 22, pleaded guilty Thursday in Clark County Superior Court to one count of drive-by shooting.
Duran and his girlfriend, Connie C. Gadberry, 21, were in a vehicle from which Gregorio Robert Chavez, 22, shot fellow gang member Jose Reyes in the right leg on Aug. 24, 2012. Court documents indicate the motive was revenge following a fight between two groups of gangsters.
A police investigation showed Chavez, Duran and Gadberry drove past Reyes in a vehicle on East 18th Street near Norris Road, and words were exchanged. Then, Chavez shot Reyes.
Gadberry, Duran and Chavez fled to California "until things settled down," according to court documents. They were apprehended while driving a stolen vehicle in Madera, Calif. Chavez fought extradition and was returned to Clark County in December 2012; Duran and Gadberry returned willingly.
Gadberry pleaded guilty April 1 to a charge of drive-by shooting. Chavez pleaded guilty Nov. 20 to first-degree assault. Both are scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 18.

I have an 06 Maxima SL. When I purchased the car, it was running fine and still is. I just noticed a weird noise. It's coming from the passenger side under the hood. Don't know how to describe it other than it sounds like a flutter - I really thought a bird had gotten caught under my car somehow. It only makes this noise when I accelerate. If I'm in park or just sitting, doesn't make a sound.

Neither candidate running for county council plans on raising new taxes paid by residents, but one is open to finding new revenue through user fees or a tax on visitors staying in hotels while the other would rather focus on saving more and cutting expenses.
Republicans Pete Ketchum and Jim Ray are running for the District 1 county council seat, which includes all of the county except for Pleasant, Franklin and the northern half of White River townships. Ketchum, the incumbent, is running for his first full term after being selected by a caucus to fill a vacancy on the council in 2011.
Ray is a longtime president of the Amity Fire District board and retired engineer. Whoever is selected in the primary will represent the Republican party in the general election and could face a Democratic or independent opponent if one is slated.
Ray wants to make sure fire districts, the county sheriff's office and highway department have enough money to do their jobs.
Ketchum's top priority is to ensure the county continues to not spend more than it raises in taxes and fees. Council members should continue searching for new ways to raise money outside of taxes, which could mean considering higher user fees for copying files or payments made by offenders to cover the cost of probation.
Tax increases aren't needed to fund new expenses, such as the new Superior Court 4 that opens in 2015, or helping to pay for current county employees, Ketchum said. But the costs for salaries, utilities and equipment continue to rise so the county needs to find new sources of revenue or find ways to cut costs, he said.
This year, Ketchum voted to approve a local innkeeper's tax, which is charged on stays at hotels, motels and bed and breakfasts and funds tourism marketing, but the new tax was not approved. An innkeeper's tax could create more revenue by promoting local businesses, which would help them attract more visitors and possibly lead to those sites expanding their business, creating new property taxes and hiring more people who then pay the income tax.
"The monies would go toward the creation of a visitor/tourism bureau which would market events, attractions and businesses, which would ultimately increase revenue," Ketchum said.
Ray hasn't made a final decision whether he would support a local innkeeper's tax and thinks there might be another way to promote tourism without a new tax.
Instead of trying to find new places to raise revenue, the county should focus more on building savings, Ray said. If county offices have new expenses or new needs, the council shouldn't just spend all its money either, he said. When Ray was raising his children, he would offer to pay part of a bill if they could come up with a portion of it, and the same rule could apply to county departments, he said.
"I'd say, 'I will put up half the money and you put up the other half,' and they went to work at a paying job and came up with the money. I can make it possible, but I'm not going to give it all to you," Ray said.
Ray isn't familiar with all of the county's spending, and would want to do extensive research when considering new requests. He previously worked for an engineering firm and would present projects to local governments, so he knows what information council members should be asking for when considering any project.
If new employees or new equipment are not something the county desperately needs or can't afford right now, the county shouldn't dip into savings to pay for it.
"There might be some services that we just couldn't afford," Ray said. "I would stand hard on getting by with what we have first. I'm really not interested in raising taxes."
The local economy continues to improve, which will help generate more taxes for the county from new homes, new businesses and more residents working and paying income taxes, Ketchum said. But the county should continue to look for new ways to save money, such as consolidating services like what is happening with 911 service or partnering with other local governments to make bulk purchases on equipment.
"The biggest financial challenge to the county is to keep the budget balanced, to be economically responsible and stable in our spending," Ketchum said.

Avoiding the Seven Pitfalls of Windows 7 Adoption
Windows 7 adoptions is one of IT is top priorities for 2010. While the most prevalent impetus for adoption is the impending extinction of Windows XP support, other catalysts are driving the timing and strategy for Windows 7 implementation. These range from needed upgrades that were deferred during the recent economic downturn, to setting the foundation for PC cloud computing, enabling the mobile workforce, and implementing green IT. Time is running short, as a solid adoption strategy requires 12 to 18 months for thorough planning and testing before actual Windows 7 deployment can begin. But nearly two-thirds of companies do not yet have a Windows 7 adoption plan in place. As long as these companies remain underprepared for this particularly complex IT upgrade.

Wal-Mart Draws New Rebuke From Advisory Firms Over Probes
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer, drew fresh criticism from shareholder-advisory firms over topics ranging from executive compensation to its handling of a foreign-bribery scandal.
Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. and Glass Lewis & Co. have both chided Wal-Mart in reports released over the past week, saying there are unanswered questions about probes into possible violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in Mexico, Brazil, China and India. ISS also recommended rejecting Wal-Mart's executive compensation in an advisory vote at the retailer's shareholder meeting on June 6.
"The board failed to make progress in providing meaningful information to shareholders about any specific findings on the FCPA-related investigations and whether executives will be held accountable for related compliance failures," said Rockville, Maryland-based ISS, which reiterated its call for an independent chairman.
Wal-Mart's founding family controls more than half its outstanding shares, so the recommendations are unlikely to affect the outcome of proposals at its investor meeting. Still, the criticism is lending support to groups lobbying for changes at the company. The union-backed CtW Investment Group, for instance, is leading a campaign to vote against Wal-Mart's executive compensation, a move supported by ISS.
Compliance Report
In a response to the criticism, Wal-Mart pointed to its recently published global compliance report, which discusses its efforts to combat corruption and add financial controls.
"The FCPA investigation is an ongoing investigation, and we're cooperating fully with the Department of Justice," Randy Hargrove, a spokesman for Bentonville, Arkansas-based Wal-Mart, said in an e-mail. "We don't have a timeline for when the investigation will be completed, but we haven't waited to act. The board has authorized whatever resources are necessary to get to the bottom of the matter."
Wal-Mart has been contending with questions on the foreign-corruption issue since November 2011, when the company disclosed possible violations in Mexico to the Justice Department and Securities and Exchange Commission. The New York Times reported in 2012 that the retailer paid $24 million in alleged bribes in Mexico. That year, the retailer announced that the probe had expanded to other countries, including China, India and Brazil.
Board Recommendations
ISS's latest call for more information is similar to the request it made before the 2013 shareholder meeting. Like last year, the firm also suggested voting against board member Mike Duke and Chairman Rob Walton. Duke was Wal-Mart's chief executive officer until February, when he was replaced by Doug McMillon. He remains a Wal-Mart director and adviser.
In his e-mail, Hargrove noted that 10 of the company's 16 directors are independent. Wal-Mart also separated its CEO and chairman roles in 1988 "to allow the CEO to focus on Wal-Mart's daily operations while the chairman focuses on oversight and governance matters," he said.
On the question of pay, Hargrove said ISS's own analysis shows the company's compensation aligns with its performance.
"Wal-Mart operates a complex business, and it's important that we offer competitive pay to attract the right talent," he said.
Investors have been waiting for a rebound at the retailer, which delivered a disappointing second-quarter forecast this month. Wal-Mart shares have declined 2.2 percent to $75.59 over the past year, compared with a 15 percent gain for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index.
Chipotle Vote
The retailer isn't alone in facing criticism over pay. CtW has waged battles against executive compensation at Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., McKesson Corp. and Oracle Corp. At Chipotle's investor meeting this month, about 77 percent of shareholder votes opposed the restaurant chain's pay.
"Wal-Mart executives continue to receive outsized compensation while performance declines," Dieter Waizenegger, CtW's executive director, said in a statement last week. In addition to recommending a no vote on the say-on-pay proposal, the group wants investors to vote against director Linda Wolf, who chairs the board's compensation, nominating and governance committee.
Still, such campaigns are largely symbolic at Wal-Mart.
"The Walton family can ensure the election of each of the 14 director nominees without action on the part of any other shareholder," Glass Lewis said in its report. "We suspect that most, if not all, shareholders both understand and accept the nature and extent of the Walton family's control over the company and the composition of its board."
(An earlier version of this story was corrected because it mischaracterized Glass Lewis's position on the say-on-pay vote.)

I was 11 when Songs in the Key of Life was released by Stevie Wonder. It was 1976. I think this was about the time that Dad had setup the living room of our house in the woods of Healdsburg with big speakers and a decent stereo system.

I think the music around our house at that time was, well, disco. I'm gonna skip going into further details about it for fear of the flashbacks it might cause.

In any event, into this atmosphere came Steveland, with this unbelievably crafted album of lyrics that had meaning and sounds that blended together to take you off to church, the dance floor, and into the safe confines of a large easy chair at the same time.

As, how do I describe the effect that such as a song had on me? Forget about the past tense... has on me... smiling, closing my eyes, sometimes crying, nodding my head, Until the day is night and night becomes the day---ALWAYS, pursing my lips, trying to sing, failing miserably, always, head bobbing, biting my lower lip, everytime that I hear it, turning up the stereo, So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it You're not helping to make this earth a place sometimes called Hell, more head bobbing, always.

He says, son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But its sad and its sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger mans clothes

and, then, I'm suddenly right smack in the midst of "The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock":

I grow old ... I grow old...
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.

Wow, what a trip. https://blogs.oracle.com/robsblog/entry/winehouse_the_new_spears Winehouse the new Spears robs 2008-06-23T07:36:59+00:00 2008-08-27T09:21:31+00:00
It seems that Amy Winehouse has become the new Britney Spears. Thankfully, it also seems that Ms Winehouse's parents are actively trying to do the same type of intervention that worked so well with our Ms Spears.

Alright, yeah, I did just waste a blog entry about this. So, there!

I'm trying to pull stock data (closing price) from yahoo's api, but it seems it always updates a day late, IE, yesterdays closing prices today. Is this normal?
I using the query node, "last trade (price only)" for this, is there another query that would be better?
Any information or advice about this would be much appreciated!
Correction ** right now we are using "Previous Close".. but perhaps there is a better candidate? a link to list is below, again, any help or direction would be much appreciated! Thanks!
"Previous Close" gives you the closing price from the previous day, so it would be 1 day late as you noticed. I use "LastTradePriceOnly" and it seems to work fine.

Does all purpose joint compound stick to semigloss ceiling paint in kitchen or bathroom?
Does all purpose joint compound stick to semigloss ceiling paint in the bathroom? I already did it to make an uneven ceiling nice and smooth and now I was told it will fall off. If so, how long will it last? And does the entire area I compound area I applied will come off in one piece and hurt someone? Do I need to remove it...?
Kitchen surfaces are often covered with grease, which must be cleaned for anything to stick. Drywall compound will usually stick to anything, and is so thin, a piece falling should not be a safety issue. If you are building it up to make trim or similar, that is a different issue.

LA QUINTA, Calif. -- Phil Mickelson showed he's back on his game after a disappointing year, beating Skip Kendall on the first playoff hole Sunday in the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic.
The victory ended an 18-month winless streak for Mickelson, who dropped from second to 16th in the world rankings.
He rolled a 3-foot birdie putt into the center of the cup to win the Hope, his second victory in the tournament in two years.
Kendall was left still looking for his first tour win. He was runner-up for the fourth time in his career, losing three times in playoffs.
Mickelson, making his 2004 debut, closed with a 5-under 68 to match Kendall (65) at 30-under 330 in the 90-hole tournament.
After each birdied the final hole, they returned to the 18th tee to begin the playoff. Both hit their drives down the center, then Kendall pulled his second shot into the left rough beside the green on the 543-yard par 5. Mickelson's second shot went into the rough on the other side, but considerably closer to the hole.
Kendall chipped onto the putting surface, then missed his 20-foot birdie try. Mickelson's chip left him the short putt, and he confidently stroked it in to wrap up a day when he had some problems on the green.
Jay Haas, 50, the 1988 tournament champion and runner-up to Mike Weir a year ago, finished third with a 67 that left him one shot behind Mickelson and Kendall.
Jonathan Kaye shot a 64 to finish fourth at 332.
Kirk Triplett, who was tied with Mickelson going into the final round and hadn't had a bogey in the tournament, had four bogeys and a double bogey in a 74 that left him six strokes back.
Kendall, playing in the group in front of Mickelson, and Mickelson matched similar birdies on No. 18 to force the playoff.
Both players hit their second shots about pin-high in the rough adjacent to the green, then pitched within some 18 inches of the hole.
Kendall, who had been the co-leader after the first round but hadn't been atop the leaderboard since, moved one shot ahead of Mickelson with a short birdie putt on No. 16 to go to 30 under, while Mickelson bogeyed No. 15.
Kendall gave it back on the next hole, when he missed a 10-foot par putt after pushing his tee shot to the right of the green.
After tinkering with his mechanics last year, Mickelson spent this winter trying to regain the form that had carried him to 21 victories and made him the world's second-ranked player.
That's 22 victories now, including an impressive 6-1 record in playoffs.
DIVOTS: The Hope record -- and the tour record for a 90-hole tournament -- is 36-under 324 by Joe Durant in 2001. ... Mickelson announced at the start of the tournament that he would donate $100 per birdie and $500 per eagle this year to a charity dedicated to funding college educations for children of military special operations personnel killed in operational or training missions. He had 37 birdies and no eagles in the Hope, so that's $3,700 for Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Mickelson made $810,000 by winning the Hope. ... The Hope becomes the only tournament to be won three years in a row by a left-hander -- Mickelson was the 2002 champion and Weir the 2003 champion.

Update Notes
Updated on: 07/18/2015
Since we last visited SpringBreakVideo...
Have you always wanted to experience black spring break? Well, you wouldn't know it from the sitename, but that is exactly what the focus is on this site. Forget those Caucasian party girls, because Spring Break Video focuses on the joy of ebony babes.
Before I get to the girls I must mention a design pet peeve of mine that SpringBreakVideo is guilty of. I hate it when a site, once you have signed in, keeps the "sign up" links visible on the page. Not only is this just plain annoying and a little confusing, it could also lead to you to click back to the signup page for no reason. Also, the site has a pretty dated look that they could really stand to change.
With that out of the way I can now talk about all the amateur, partying black babes you will see on the site. The content is split up into seven sections: raw and wild, beach buns, in da club, street day, street night, dymes only, and bikes and whips.
Except for the "raw and wild" collection, you aren't going to see much, if any, full nudity ("beach buns" has some bare-breast action). For the most part the videos are of chicks in very skimpy outfits (short skirts, booty shorts, thongs, bikinis, etc). And while this may be "voyeur" content, this isn't sneaky voyeurism.
The chicks are well aware of the camera (and the many other cameras and cell phones) around them and are anything but shy. Head over to the tour page and check out the preview vids to get a good idea of how the content plays out in the members' area.
There are 1,179 excellent-quality videos available at this point and they tend to average eight minutes in length. Although sometimes that time is taken up by just repeating a clip in slow motion. But, hey, if you think you can film something better they are always looking for good footage and they are willing to pay. Each comes with some vid caps.
The collection is dated and they are updating on the 15th of every month. Yes, that is only once a month, but they often add a whole load of vids each time (over 20 on the last update).
I have seen lots of these spring-break-type sites, but I have never seen one solely focused on ebony chicks. If that idea appeals to you, then this large Spring Break Video site could be worth checking out.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

Does your artwork have bleeds?
PsPrint requires .125" bleeds on all four sides of your artwork (i.e., 4"x6" postcard image with bleeds would have dimensions of 4.25" x 6.25" in your artwork file.) If your image has a white border on all four sides, bleeds are recommended but not required. If your image is not white on all four sides, you MUST include bleeds in your files. More information about bleeds.
Does your artwork have borders?
The cutting process for printed materials has a mechanical tolerance of about .0625 or 1/16 of an inch. When using a border in your artwork, it is essential that your design use at least .25 or 1/4 of an inch of white space from your border to the cut line to maintain a symmetrical appearance.

Art Ross spent his years as a player with a number of different leagues: the Canadian Amateur Hockey League, the Manitoba Hockey League, the Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association, the Canadian Hockey Association, the National Hockey Association and lastly the National Hockey League.
Earning the reputation as one of the top rushing defensemen in the game, Ross was part of successful Stanley Cup challenges with the Kenora Thistles in 1907 and the Montreal Wanderers in 1908.
Ross was playing for the Wanderers when they joined the NHL in 1917. Unfortunately, a fire destroyed their arena and the team withdrew from the league. Ross retired as a player at this time, having played only three NHL games.
With his playing career behind him, Ross became an on-ice official for a short period of time.
After coaching for the Hamilton Tigers' senior club, he became the head coach of the new NHL franchise in Boston.
Ross worked for the Boston Bruins from 1924-54 as either a coach or the general manager. In that time, the Bruins won three Stanley Cups and finished first in the league 10 times.
He also argued for the adoption of synthetic rubber pucks, as opposed to natural rubber pucks, and got square nets replaced with the rounded-back version.
For the 1947-48 season, the NHL introduced the Art Ross Trophy to be awarded annually to the league's top scorer. In 1954, Ross was part of the inaugural class elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame. Despite being better-known for his contributions to the game, Ross joined the Hall as a player, not a builder.
In 1964, Ross died in a suburb of Boston, where he had lived since joining the Bruins' organization.
Information from the Hockey Hall of Fame was used in this report.

Summary of Research Interests
Our long term goal is the research and development of heat shock protein-based therapies to be used alone or in combination with current therapies for the eradication of triple-negative breast cancer. Recent studies on surface receptors and gene expression of breast tumors have come up with a term triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), creating a phenotype and disease quite distinct from that seen in HER2- or ER-positive breast cancers, which is a much more aggressive disease without tumor-specific treatment options. Our studies employ gold nanoshell-mediated hyperthermia in combination with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, also known as the triple-modality approach. The program project is supported by Scott & White RGP Award.
We will expose tumors to hyperthermic temperatures non-invasively using optically activated gold nanoshells in combination with radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy (CT). This combined therapy is termed the triple-modality approach. These studies are being performed in collaboration with Dr. Sunil Krishnan (MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX). My studies utilize functional immunological approaches, genomics, proteomics, transgenic and knock out tumor animal models.
Current chemotherapeutic agents exhibit antitumor effects in a small number of cancers and adverse toxic effects in most of the patients. To overcome these problems, new antitumor agents are required. In this collaboration with Dr Susana Fiorentino from Grupo de Inmunobiología y Biología Celular, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá, Colombia, we have identified a plant extract F4, derived from Petiveria alliacea L. (Phytolaccaceae), which has been used against leukemia and breast cancer with a lack of toxicity.
Adaptogens were initially defined as substances that enhance the "state of non-specific resistance" in stress, a physiological condition that is linked with various disorders of the neuroendocrine-immune system. The objective of our research with Drs Alexander Panossian and Georg Wikman from Swedish Herbal Institute, Sweden is to identify the mechanism by which Hsp72 is involved in an adaptogen-induced stress response.
In the last decade alone, there has been an increase of 40% in the number of Americans diagnosed with diabetes. Over that same period, the obesity rate has also increased by nearly 20%. Therefore, efforts to identify any biomarker(s) to assist with obesity and diabetes prevention are of paramount importance. This study was designed to address the link between obesity and diabetes using proteomic analysis of drawn blood and collected urine samples. These studies are being performed in collaboration with Dr Samuel Forjuoh from Department of Family & Community Medicine, Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine, Scott & White Memorial Hospital, Temple, TX.
Quercetin is a widely distributed bioflavonoid thought to act as a hyperthermia sensitizer in tumor cells by suppressing the expression of the seventy kilo-Dalton heat shock protein (Hsp72). However, the bioavailability of quercetin is very poor, and intravenous administration is necessary to establish efficient plasma concentrations of quercetin (PQC) in humans. In collaboration with Dr. Rűediger Wessalowski from the Department of Pediatric Oncology, Hematology and Clinical Immunology, University Children's Hospital, Heinrich-Heine-University, Düsseldorf, Germany, successful intravenous application of quercetin in a 4-year-old girl with refractory sarcoma treated with combined thermo-chemotherapy.

And the reason is increasingly evident: the volume and complexity of what we know has exceeded our individual ability to deliver its benefits correctly, safely and reliably. Knowledge has both saved us and burdened us. We need a tool to help us navigate complexity and avoid unnecessary and harmful mistakes.
The Solution: Checklists
Checklists by themselves are not the proverbial "silver bullet" that will eliminate all mistakes, but they will help reduce mistakes and improve our quality and effectiveness. I have had multiple teams earn quality certifications like the MPTQM (Mail Processing Total Quality Management) from the U.S. Postal Service and ISO-9001. A key component to earning these certifications and ensuring consistent quality in our operations is the use of checklists. Our ultimate goal is not just to have people ticking boxes on a checklist. Our ultimate goal is to have our teams embrace a culture of teamwork, discipline and quality—and checklists can be a useful means to that end.
Benefits of Checklists
Here are some of the benefits they bring. Checklists:
1. Help with memory recall and clearly set out the necessary steps in a process. This provides verification and helps ensure consistency.
2. Establish standards of good performance and help ensure proper execution.
3. Help defend everyone—even the experienced—against making mistakes. They also help combat complacency.
4. Serve as a "cognitive net." They catch mental flaws inherent in all of us—flaws of memory, attention and thoroughness.
5. Serve as a great training tool to help ensure people are completing tasks correctly.
For me the bottom line is that checklists can help eliminate "stupid" mistakes. In some fields like medical, aviation and construction these avoidable mistakes have not only cost organizations millions of dollars, they have also cost people their lives. In our industry normally lives are not at stake, but service to our customers, avoiding risk, making money for our shareholders and creating a high-performance culture for our employees are all on the line.
