Some leaders of the PnC club in the 2000-2001 school year claimed that the club had been founded in 1996 during one of Yale's periodic grad student strikes.

Dean Guitars was created in 1976 by luthier Dean Zelinsky who began building guitars at an early age. Zelinsky thought that rock guitar design had stagnated and decided to do what he could to change things. The first Dean guitars were released in the mid-1970s and featured designs including "pointy" guitar bodies and large V-shaped headstocks. These designs quickly gained in popularity because they looked great and because they were designed and engineered to improve the tone and sustain of the guitar. (A different style "forked" headstock w ...

Vivid has a strict policy mandating condom use, and the sexual activities shown are generally "milder" than those of Vivid's competitors. Anal sex is never depicted, and scenes of bondage are rare and particularly mild. Vivid did not follow the path taken by much of the rest of the U.S. porn industry in the late 1990s toward more explicit and extreme activities (for instance, anal sex scenes are quite common in many other porn companies' productions today). Intercourse almost always involves a heterosexual couple; larger groupings or orgies ...
