On the chance that the WPs are not all covered specifically in the 101 Tips article, I reproduce them here:
1. Whenever possible you don’t hit the cue ball hard when you can accomplish the same objectives hitting it soft.
2. Whenever possible don’t apply English to the cue ball when you can accomplish the same thing hitting center ball.
3. Whenever possible you don’t move a second object ball that is already pocketable, after sinking the one you called.
4. Whenever possible you don’t choose cue ball routes that require your driving or forcing the cue ball, as opposed to rolling it, some place.
5. Whenever possible you don’t drive the cue ball to a rail when you can get it to an advantageous place without using a rail.
6. Whenever possible you don’t employ two-rail routes when one-rail routes will get the job done.
7. Whenever possible you don’t employ three-rail routes when two-rail routes (or, sometimes, one-rail) routes will do.
8. Whenever possible you provide yourself with a second shot that you can count on as part of all your mid-rack break shots.
9. Whenever possible we position ourselves to shoot balls on or near the rails early in our sequence.

I apologize to everyone I've emailed the 101 Tips to. It seems that all four pages were in each attachment, and I've been sending two emails to everyone and sending multiple copies. I had a couple of people mention this and I just checked
Must have happened when I scanned the article as PDF.
Again, I apologize. I'll double check each attachment.

Paul...I'm the same way! The new one is about the clinic that Jerry Briesath and Danny DiLiberto did at Chris's in Chicago, a couple of months ago. It's a downright shame that so few people took advantage of this great opportunity to learn from two such intelligent people!
