When Brittany DeHart joined the South Aiken High School Naval Junior ROTC unit last August, she was looking for a family environment.
She found that and something unexpected – a family of sisters, too. The entire unit participated in a Pass-in-Review exercise for parents and friends Thursday.
It might surprise some people, but 38 percent of 173 cadets at South Aiken are female. The number climbs to 42 percent of Aiken High's 180-member ROTC program and around 50 percent of Silver Bluff's program.
Several of Laughlin's female cadets have earned the national Legion of Valor award – most recently given to Supply Officer Grace Thompson last fall. She's one of just 11 high school winners throughout the U.S. this year.
Maddy Velie served as commanding officer and won the Legion of Valor as well in 2009. Kaitlyn Henderson had both honors a few years before that and graduated from the Naval Academy last year. In 2004, Kristin Gore also served as the CO and won the Legion of Valor award. After graduating from North Carolina State with honors, she went on to Columbia University for graduate degrees.
Laughlin and Silver Bluff commander Ron Freeman had a unique opportunity for the last two days that was requested by Area 6 Commander Gart Jones. Laughlin did the inspection and spoke at Silver Bluff's formal exercise Wednesday. Freeman then returned the favor Thursday – "the first time I've had the opportunity to do that in 18 years at Silver Bluff," he said.
When Freeman arrived at the high school nearly two decades ago, Silver Bluff had about 8 to 10 percent young women with the ROTC unit.
"Everybody viewed ROTC as more of a male-type program," he said. "But they began to understand it's a citizenship development program. It gives males and females the opportunity to learn so much as they prepare to go into the real world."
Thompson can say that for sure. Her older brother Matthew would tell her how much fun he was having with South Aiken's ROTC program. He also pointed out Grace could get the chance to have her college tuition paid.
"I'm going to Auburn on a nursing scholarship and I plan to go into the Navy," Thompson said. "I'm glad to see this shift with more women in ROTC units. Women are just as capable of doing something with the military."
Two other seniors – Platoon Commander Sarah Johnson and CyberPatriot commander Sarah Henagan – have also found the ROTC program invaluable.
"We were in middle school, and some of the cadets came over," Johnson said. "They were doing a lot of fancy drills and looking cool. It was something I really wanted to do."
During her freshman year, Velie was the CO and the executive officer was Jessica Campbell. Both were huge influences, Johnson said. She wanted to be like them one day and was later thrilled to earn the opportunity to wear the Navy's service dress blues.
As an eighth-grader, Henagan's good friend was Brianna Snelling, Kaitlyn Henderson's younger sister and a cadet freshman.
"She always talked about how great Kaitlynn was and how helpful she was to everyone," said Henagan. "I felt this was the kind of thing for me."
Johnson hopes to go to the The Citadel and would love the chance to get a Naval Academy appointment. She couldn't have dreamed of such possibilities without ROTC.
Henagan feels the same way. Her selection as the CyperPatriot commander still astonishes her. The ROTC cadets on the team must destroy viruses on multiple computers at the same time to advance in a national competition.
That appointment has given Henagan the goal of pursuing a career in cybersecurity.
"I actually feel I'm good at something," she said.
At Aiken High, Commander Negron selected Kiersten Wright as the CO for 2011-12 – calling her one of the best student commanders he's ever worked with during his career in this role.
"We have a good balance with the males and females," Negron said. "The females pay more attention to detail, and as far as the military aspect goes, there's no difference between the males and females. My view is the females are more compassionate, and they also tend to work a lot harder."

Ultra High Performance
Drawing inspiration from Formula One design, the new Michelin® Pilot® Sport PS2 tire represents a quantum leap in tire design and engineering. It outperforms not only its predecessor in every category, but all other Michelin® high performance summer tires as well, both in wet and dry conditions. An infusion of the most advanced tire-making technologies and techniques, from the highly guarded C3M™ production process to a Formula One inspired four-groove tread design, the Michelin® Pilot® Sport PS2 is stretching the very limits of what an ultra-high performance tire can achieve.
Reduced road noise due to an acoustically tuned asymmetrical tread pattern.Superior handling and grip in both wet and dry condtions as a result of an asymmetrical tread design featuring more grooves for water evacuation on the inside shoulder and massive tread blocks for max handling on the outside shoulder.Maximum grip and handling without a sacrifice of tread life as a result of a stickier tread compound.Precision handling and control in high speed cornering thanks to the Formula One inspired four-groove tread design which provides greater stability in the tread and contact area under extreme conditions.Uniform shape at high-speeds, improved ride quality, steering precision and high speed durability due to a size-optimized, precisely placed individual Aramid/nylon hybrid filaments via the patented C3M Technology™ manufacturing process.Extreme predictability in wet and dry max handling conditions through the use of highly specialized dual side-by-side tread co

Obviously as a summer tire no snow traction. But moving on, with the tires the grip is amazing. I did not receive a drop in traction when it was pouring massively during a rain storm. And I tried to get the tires to slip. Excellent tire!

This tire does not wear well even under moderate use. I have had to replace rear tires twice, once after 3000 miles, and then after 2400 miles. Michelin's Executive Customer Service response the second time was: if you buy this kind of car, then "not going to get good mileage". Michelin advised average mileage for these kinds of tires in US is 10,000 miles but saw no issue whatsoever with replacements being required after 3000 and 2400 miles. Strongly recommend against buying.

I've had these tires on my 2003 350z for 2 track days and the dry handling is pretty good. However with just slight road wetness, the car keeps slipping everywhere, but that's to be expected. Overall it's great tire for dry+trackdays, scary in the wet.

Have these as my *summer* tires on all my Audis.
(I have high performance winter tires for all my Audis for winter driving.)
245/35/19 on the 2008 A4 - 6 track events. Car has 50,000 miles but these tires have been the only summer tire on this car. Still going strong, but definitely show they have had some serious track time. Need replacing this year.
275/35/19 on the 2003 S8 - 2 track events. 10,000 miles on them. Over 80% of tread depth remaining.
255/35/19 on the 2008 A6 Avant - 2 track events. Car has 60,000 miles, but these are the second set of summer tires.
My next sets of summer tires look like they will be the Michelin Pilot Super Sport - they are the new incarnation of this tire and are supposed to be better in every respect. The Pilot Sport 2 technology is now about 8 years old and it's *still* better than most other ultra perf summer tires.

COLUMBIA One glance at the statistics is all thats needed to see the two best teams in the Southern Conference are likely playing Saturday when Wofford travels to Georgia Southern.
The Terriers (5-0, 3-0 SoCon) are the leagues leading offense and its second-best defense. The Eagles (4-1, 3-1) lead the SoCon in defense and are the conferences second-best offense.
Wofford coach Mike Ayers said it is just another Saturday in one of the toughest leagues in the Football Championship Subdivision.
To win in our league, youve got to be on, Ayers said. Youve got to have guys who have bought in and are fighting the fight no matter how difficult it is.
In other games Saturday involving South Carolinas FCS teams, Furman hosts Chattanooga; The Citadel hosts Western Carolina; Coastal Carolina hosts Stony Brook; Presbyterian hosts Liberty; Charleston Southern hosts VMI; and South Carolina State is at Delaware State.
In Statesboro, Ga., Wofford has Georgia Southern just where the Terriers want them on the road.
The visitors have won the last seven games between the teams, including last years 31-10 win by the Eagles, where Wofford ran for a season low 192 yards.
The Terriers are averaging 449 yards on the ground a game this year, while the Eagles are allowing right at 100 yards rushing.
Wofford is the only team without a league loss in the SoCon, and the Terriers are going into their toughest stretch of the season. In the next five weeks, they will play the four teams that only have one conference loss Georgia Southern, Appalachian State, Samford and Chattanooga.
Eagles coach Jeff Monken said the battle between the two option teams has a couple of different wrinkles, but mostly comes down to which team can run its offense with the fewest mistakes.
That Wofford staff is going to have a plan for everything we have to throw at them. And hopefully well come out with a decent plan for the things they have, Monken said. It just comes down to making plays, blocking, tackling, playing assignments, hanging on to the football and hoping we can slug it out to the end.
In Greenville, Furman (2-4, 1-2 SoCon) plays what could be an elimination game for playoff hopes against Chattanooga (2-3, 1-1).
The Paladins had another tough loss last week. They led Wofford 14-7 at half and held the Terriers to just 95 yards rushing in the first two quarters. But Furman couldnt hang on as Wofford won 20-17 behind 208 yards on the ground in the second half.
The Paladins now move on to a Mocs team that has its own unique attack. Chattanooga is using two quarterbacks, who also are the teams leading rushers.
They just do a lot of different stuff that you have to prepare for that can stress you in many areas, Furman coach Bruce Fowler said. Well just have to get ready for it all.
The Paladins have won 16 of the last 17 games against the Mocs. Chattanoogas only win during that time was a 38-26 win in 2010 the last time the teams met in Greenville.
In Charleston, The Citadel (3-3, 2-2 SoCon) will try to gets its season back on track against Western Carolina (1-5, 0-4).
After starting 3-0 with wins over Appalachian State and Georgia Southern, the Bulldogs have lost three in a row. Citadel coach Kevin Higgins said the team had a good meeting this week, talking about how there is still time to turn things around.
We have a bye week coming up and this will give us an opportunity to heal up. Our guys are up for the challenge and will be excited, Higgins said.
The Catamounts have lost 18 straight SoCon games. Their last league win was in 2010 a 24-13 victory over The Citadel in Charleston.
In Conway, Coastal Carolina (2-3) opens Big South Conference play with powerful Stony Brook (5-1, 1-0).
I think Stony Brook is the best team we play on our schedule, period, Chanticleers coach Joe Moglia said.
Coastal Carolina had a bye last Saturday, but instead of spending the extra week preparing for the Seawolves, Moglia decided his team could spend the time better practicing fundamentals.
Under normal circumstances, especially with a team that has the caliber of Stony Brook, as good as they are, we would have spent the off week giving our guys a little bit of a break and we would have taken all that extra time to focus on Stony Brook, Moglia said. But we thought it would be far better for us to focus on ourselves.
Not only is Stony Brook the only team with a winning record in the Big South Conference, the Seawolves also lead the league in total offense and defense. Stony Brook is sixth in the seven-team league in passing yards, but they lead the league with an average of 10.5 yards an attempt.
If you get a little too cute because you need an extra guy coming up in run support or because the other guys up front are not getting it done, they are going to see that and they are going to take advantage in the passing game, Moglia said.
The Chanticleers have never beaten the Seawolves.
In Clinton, Presbyterian (2-4, 0-1 Big South) will try to beat Liberty (1-4, 1-0) for the first time since joining the league.
The Blue Hose managed just 285 yards in last weeks 17-7 loss to VMI.
Presbyterian coach Harold Nichols is glad to be home after playing four of his first six games on the road. But he wishes he had a different opponent. The Flames have been among the elite teams in the conference for the past two years along with Stony Brook, but they opened the season with four straight losses.
Its a tough team to have to go up against it. I think they are one of the more talented teams in our league and have been for a while, Nichols said.
In North Charleston, Charleston Southern (1-4, 0-1 Big South) is trying to figure out how to turn its offense into points against VMI (2-3, 1-0).
In last weeks 49-7 loss to Stony Brook, the Buccaneers had five drives that went 45 yards or more, but came out with just one touchdown. The other drives ended with two interceptions and fumble and a missed field goal.
What we did not show is consistency, Charleston Southern coach Jay Mills said of his offense. In fact, our last series, we had a 17-play drive that netted zero points.
The Keydets have won two in a row over the Buccaneers, and a win Saturday would give VMI its first 2-0 start in the Big South Conference since joining the league in 2003.
In Dover, Del., South Carolina State (2-4, 1-2 Mid-Eastern Athletic) will try to figure out something to keep playing for against Delaware State (2-3, 1-1).
Last weeks 40-10 loss to North Carolina-Central likely knocked the Bulldogs out of any chance to win the MEAC.
Its been a sobering experience. Weve got work to do, South Carolina State coach Buddy Pough said. It will be interesting to see just how our people character-wise, react from this point.
South Carolina States offense is gaining just 282 yards a game and Pough said he cant pinpoint any one thing he can do to fix it.
Weve had a little bit of everything, Pough said. We have not played well as an offensive team.

PROJECT JACKSON: "NIMBY," or "Not in My Back Yard" comes to mind with each article I read or report I hear concerning Jackson Project.
In my studies, this phrase was usually reserved for new prisons to be built or drug halfway houses or some other "unsavory" proposal. According to most books that delve into the subject or if you look it up online, the majority of people agree that the project is needed, but just not close to them – hence the acronym.
Project Jackson is no exception when yet another story aired on the local news on June 16. Those for the project had no trouble expressing themselves on camera, but those opposed, although vocal, did not want their identities revealed. How can anyone take the opposition seriously if many who are opposed are too frightened to step up?
I happen to think that the proof is in the pudding, and looking around at what our city leaders have done for our city since I moved here, I see nothing to complain about. I have faith that they know what they are doing.
MORE ON THE NSA: Last week, I wrote about the information-gathering our National Security Agency is involved in when it comes to citizens and the fact that they are constructing those storage buildings in Utah to house and save it all. I was a bit off.
It isn't just the gathering of information on U.S. citizens, meaning to me anyone who resides in the states, but, according to Fox News, the intention is to gather and save information on everyone in the world.
Information is power, and I don't know about you, but it was scary enough thinking our government knows every phone call, conversation, instant message or email we make. Now knowing that about everyone in the world being watched is even scarier when you consider how that information can be used. It has reared its ugly head in the states already with the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of certain groups and individuals, and who knows where else.
If you think about it logically, it could be history repeating itself, only this time they don't need informants or next door neighbors – they just need a super computer and lots of storage space.

A couple weeks ago on a Sunday, there was a lengthy legal notice in the classified ads section of the newspaper regarding garbage, recycling containers and a bunch of other stuff including wildlife. It seemed to go into excruciating detail and took up the better part of two pages of newsprint. It�s been bugging me. What was that ad all about? � Reads the Fine Print
Your query comes at a perfect time. Today is the first day of Durango�s new single-stream recycling system � and that lengthy notice is all about this exciting new service.
On Jan. 13, the city dutifully posted the complete text of the new Chapter 10 of the City Code, which covers trash collection and recycling.
The old Chapter 10 had its problems. Most notably, it lacked the appropriate language for single-stream recycling.
Rather than tinker with the code and craft a slew of amendments, the city junked the entire chapter and replaced it with a new one.
So when it comes to rules on salvaging resources, the city tosses its law without reducing words, reusing text or recycling content. How ironic is that?
The new Chapter 10 contains some interesting details.
For instance, Dumpster-diving entrepreneurs are put on notice. It�s now against the law for �anyone to remove from any container designated for recycling any material of any value.�
Thankfully, this section prohibits trash mining only from containers, and nothing is said about fall cleanup.
Around these parts, fall cleanup should be called Hoarders� Holiday, as several people cruise around, seeing if anything �good� can be snagged from huge piles of debris and detritus.
Junk and appliances have their own section in the code. In a nutshell, �dilapidated furniture, appliances, machinery, equipment, building material, vehicle or portions thereof� can�t be accumulated outside unless enclosed by a �building� of some sort.
We�ll call this section the �No Disgusting Crummy Couches with Free Signs on Curbs� provision.
The scourge of cement litterbugs is dealt with directly.
The law specifically insists �persons mixing concrete or transporting concrete on city streets shall not drop or leave waste concrete upon such streets.�
The city is fully prepared for the next pandemic, as the ordinance covers �the removal and disposal of wearing apparel, bedding or other trash from homes or other places where highly infectious or contagious diseases have prevailed.�
Local victims of cholera and tuberculosis will need to make arrangements. �Such trash shall not be placed in containers for regular city trash collection,� the law reads.
Section 10-24 is titled �Dead animals.� It reads, �No person shall deposit or otherwise place any carcass or portion of any animal, bird or reptile for collection by the city.�
The ordinance continues with a crucial kitchen clarification: �This prohibition shall not preclude the disposal of animal parts that are part of a meal or meal preparation.�
And speaking of animals, our new trash code specifically outlaws leaving or storing �any refuse, food product, pet food, grain, seeds or salt in a manner which would constitute a lure, attractant or enticement to wildlife, except for birdfeeders.�
OK. But the ordinance defines �wildlife� as �including but not limited to elk, deer, sheep, lynx, bears, skunks, squirrels, raccoons, magpies, crows, coyotes, bobcats, foxes, mountain lions, unrestrained livestock or unrestrained household pets.�
So you can feed birds but not magpies and crows?
Action Line checked with our friend, City Manager Ron LeBlanc, regarding this ornery ornithological ordinance and the flap it could cause.
�We took testimony from the �nice� birds like sparrows and robins � and they had nothing nice to say about members of the corvid family,� Ron chirped.
Email questions to email@example.com or mail them to Action Line, The Durango Herald, 1275 Main Ave., Durango, CO 81301. You can request anonymity if you know the multiple number of ways to sign up for single-stream recycling.

The 21st annual Teller Lecture Banquet was hosted by Citizens for Nuclear Technology Awareness on Monday at the USC Aiken Convocation Center.
The Honorable Kristine L. Svinicki, commissioner for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, provided this years lecture.
Svinickis formal remarks focused on regulatory reactions in the wake of the Fukushima disaster in Japan and policy decisions related to spent nuclear fuel, but even the distinguished nuclear engineer took note of a younger CNTA honorees achievements.
I was sitting there contrasting myself, and I was a bit more of an indifferent student than apparently Matt is, Svincki said. He is really an impressive young man.
Though not present, the achievements of the Robert Maher Memorial Scholarship winner, Matthew Correnti, impressed most and dropped many jaws in the audience.
Correnti is a senior at Furman University where he is carrying a 4.0 GPA with triple majors in chemistry, physics and mathematics.
The list of scholars, scholarships and societies he is in takes up a whole page, so Im going to have to abbreviate, said Stuart MacVean, Savannah River Remediations operations and deputy project manager.
A member of four honors societies, Correnti is looking to obtain his masters degree and Ph.D. in physical chemistry and forward research into alternative energy.
Though much-lauded as an up-and-coming scientist, Correnti is also an artist. Two pieces of woodwork, a desk and a table, have been nationally recognized at shows and featured in journals.
Svinicki also complimented CNTAs work in reaching out to younger students.
I think it is wonderful, the essay contest, she said. Getting some of this nuclear energy information to high school or even middle school students is a really wonderful ambition.
Svinickis remarks focused on changes that have been made internationally and within the United States since Fukushima. She also gave a detailed account of the NRCs role in finding a solution to nuclear waste storage questions since President Barrack Obama defunded the planned Yucca Mountain repository.
She ended her remarks by quoting the man for whom the lecture is named, Edward Teller.
Life improves slowly and goes wrong, fast. And only catastrophe is clearly visible, Svinicki said, quoting Teller.
The 2012 Fred C. Davison Distinguished Scientist Award was also announced, with Dr. John A. Swegle being the recipient.
Swegle is a senior advisory scientist with Savannah River National Laboratorys Nonproliferation Technology Section.
His focus is the impact of foreign nuclear weapons programs and nuclear proliferation on United States arms control and proliferation policy.
Svinicki described Swegles work on directed energy weapons was vital for national security.

I hope Clippers rested well enough to have the energy to compete in this game, get more rebounds and points in the paint, and get a W. Thursday's arse-whooping by the Warriors showed that the Clippers, after logging a grueling road trip, we're completely gassed out and had no legs and arms, lol. The Jazz are on their own back-to-back, so perhaps they'll be too exhausted to put up a fight. Win this one, Clips!
Well we are going to see how we bounce back tonight. Team should be rested enough and be looking to make a statement against Utah.
I expect a clipper victory without a problem !!! Go clippers
Maybe we can trade DUDley and a pick for Hayward tonight😁😁
Can Hayward play back C??...LOL
No, but would be nice to have him start at the 3
It would be even nicer to have LeBron, Durant or George... and only slightly less realistic.
Find, but our real need is a back up C. Plus Hayward is a RFA and someone's going to pay him more then he's worth and I don't want it to be us.
It would be nice.
what is he worth? in your opinion.
I'd say he's worth about 7-9 annually.
Someone will pay him at least that and to me you can get better value in someone like Ariza or Aminu just to name 2 off the top of my head.
Why bother trading Dudley for him when we can get him for Green, Mullens and Jamison? Save Dudley to trade straight for Greg Monroe.
What he is worth and what he will get is 2 different things.. I'm pretty sure he gets close to the maximum if not the max once he gets to RFA because somebody will want to make him that offer.. Something we just can't really afford.
I know there are people who say it "Shouldn't matter about the schedule they should
win every game". And usually those are people who have never competed in anything.
But the reality is Watching the warriors game Clippers were out of Gas.
Whoever approved that scheduling should be shot.
We are expected to win against teams like the Jazz so to think we need to psych ourselves up for this game is a little alarming, we should be reserving that sort of energy against the better teams in the league in which we don't have such a good record against so far
I completely agree. I don't really like making excuses but this seems like an exception. I said it last night and I'll say it again.
9 games in 9 different cities in 13 days is difficult for any team.
At least we have the Jazz at home tonight. If we lose this game, there won't be any excuses though. We need to dominate tonight.
OKC, playing their back-to-back game on the road, just got beaten (by 15 points) by the Wizards. Looked like OKC players were gassed too, much in the same way Clippers were against the Warriors. These back-to-back games are brutal. I hope the Jazz will also be gassed as they are also on their second night of a back-to-back too. Clips might as well take advantage of the schedule.
The Wizards are tough little boogers.
well its almost time to see how this game goess. hopefully our small forwards actually perform tonight
Blake 3 rebiunds already. Looks like he is rebounding with purpose. Only had 1 the enitre first half. How about that Kevin Love -ish outlet?
Not a good start for the Clippers.
Geez, DJ already has 2 fouls.
Refs already BSing us early. Travels called but no fouls and when they call a foul we miss the open layup and miss 2 free throws
F*ckin reps doesn't want to call those fouls against marvin williams, he keep holding blake
Can't do anything right right now- but thankfully the Jazz aren't exactly on fire either.
Jamal soft touch layup for 2.
sloppy start but luckily its the Jazz so we can get away with that
You would have to have a really coachable team with no big egos to do that. The Spurs might be able to get away with that kind of strategy, for example.
Nope. I know its hard to play that many games but they're professional basketball players that are getting paid to do it.
Assist of the Night right there
Blake and 1 on the fine delivery from Crawford!
Willie drains the jumper!
Good shot by Willie.
watch brandon rush when he gets some play time, maybe make a small trade for him?
I like Willie's hustle. He really is a pro's pro.
Turk seems to be getting his groove back. Seems like a solid back-up for Blake.
JJ- splash from the key!
Gotta admit, I was very skeptical when we signed him after his awful performance in EuroBasket, but he's been quite solid so far.
Turk with the nice J
Yeah Hedo is far exceeding what i expected from him
Alright, we're up 3. Time to pad this lead, Clips!
We are kind of getting bailed out by late calls lol.
Blake is tired. Carrying this team on his back. Looks like there is a little hitch back in his free-throw
Nice body control and catch there by Blake for the lay-in.
Lets try some pick and roll play get at the basket.
Games like these you need to maybe rely more on the bench to take more minutes.

Reggie and big turk for 3
Dudley trying to drive is just so damn stupid and funny
There are no words for Dudley...
Like the effort and movement from Hollins.
Dudley so hot and cold...
Dudl3y 3!
Uhhhh when Dudley is hot he is hot , but he isn't consistent. Fools Gold for all I see
Dudley finally hits a three. That is a rare sighting..
Garbage, trash, scrub, and permabenched are some words for him, that three notwithstanding.
Liking the energy so far.
I would be interested to know I record in our road Blues vs our road Reds. I know last year (and most years) road BLues were a sure sign of defeat. I suspect this year the trend has been reversed.
Eric who?
! THE KING OF THE FOUR POINT PLAY! That arc tho.
Nice 4 point play Jamal.
Jamal just has a knack for those 4-point plays.
Offensive going well for Clips.
Here comes the Clips....
Can't wait for the arrival of Big Baby. Will be such a HUGE help off the bench!
Lol, that was a trael
Jamal ain't gonna miss two in row though.
Hot shooting by Jamal
We need to crash the defensive glass! Come on, box out guys!
We need to limit the leak-outs overall until really needed. Should be crew rebound and running the break as a team at once.
What happened to Blake? He's being too passive.
You got to be F*cking kiddingme!
Ball watching
Good first half Clips.
Blake is being too passive.. Post up again c'mon now
Just a question.
I think we will all agree that Chris Paul's shoulder is not 100% plus now his thumb injury. But is it worth playing him and risking him getting hurt more?
Blake seems to be in a mini slump.
I love how if Blake doesn't chuck up every shot possible everyone whines that he's "being too passive." Should he start padding stats at the expense of winning like Kevin Love?
Clippers really need to work on their defense. There's just too many holes for easy baskets by the Pelicans.
Clippers already have 8 bingos. Need one more to win the game. Lawler's Bingo Law, lol.
I think the problem we're having is the offensive rebounds we allow/ finishing out our defensive plays. They have something like 15 second chance points. Box out/hustle more on 5 of their offensive rebounds and we'd have held them to a 42 point half, which isn't bad.
Blake is too passive. This ain't good. Btw, thought the Fathlete is gonna play tonight?
I'm worried blake is injured - very passive the last few games.
Jamal on fiyah!
Jamal is on FIRE!
Looks like Griffin heard you all here.
Seriously... of all the people to complain about on this team, and people choose Blake? He's not going to score 35-40 points every night, guys, and it's not because he's "too passive."
That Is where anthony needs to improve, he needs muscle mass
Agreed. Good to see him being aggressive so far though.
Lol, too easy for Blake. Davis is too little
Line drive passes from CP to Blake are awesome to watch.
Nice steal and pass from Paul and finish by Blake!
BG with some hard nose D on THE BROW!
Blake schooling the young man AD
Blake vs. Davis games are going to be so epic in a few years when Davis starts to reach his potential. Top two bigs in the league soon... book it.
Wow, slam dunk by Blake! Woohoo, up by 18. This is more like it.
Griffin got some nut action around the mouth of Davis there.
Blake taking Davis to school
Right now they are arguably already the top two bigs in the league.

Subject - Details
Main Page > Metadata Schema > Subject - Details
In the North Carolina Maps project, the "details" field is used to identify specific elements that appear on a map. The terms assigned to each map are taken from a limited, controlled-vocabulary list described in detail below. By adding this additional level of information to the cataloging record, users will be able to conduct specific and detailed searches, finding maps not just by the geographic area that they show, but also by selected details shown on the face of the map itself.
This term is used to describe two different, but related elements depicted on maps. North Carolina Maps will include several maps produced specifically to illustrate battles. These often depict troop movements and locations, and topography relevant to the battle. While these will certainly receive this term in the subject_details field (and most likely the term "Military" in map_type), the term should also be used when larger maps simply show the site of a battle. Many state maps denote battle sites from the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, sometimes giving the name and dates of the battle, other times just showing a symbol such as a small pair of crossed swords.
The Businesses term covers all private businesses shown on the map, including (but certainly not limited to) mills, stores, and fisheries. This term should be used in conjunction with more specific terms available in this field, including Mills, Stores, and Mines. While this term should be used for all of the different types of businesses shown on the map, the cataloger should be more specific in the free-text description in the abstract field, noting the types of businesses that are included.
Canals were an important form of transportation in early North Carolina, especially before the expansion of railroads. The canal most likely to appear on maps is the Dismal Swamp Canal, located in Camden and Gates Counties along the Virginia border. There were also canals in Craven and Carteret Counties, connecting the Neuse River with Beaufort; in Hyde County, connecting Lake Mattamuskeet with the Pamlico Sound; and on the border between Washington and Tyrrell Counties. Canals are most often depicted by a heavy, dark, straight line.
This term is used broadly for any map that includes more than one color. The colors do not have to signify anything, in fact, the majority of the colors used on the historic maps in this collection are purely decorative.
County Boundaries
This term is used only when the boundaries of counties are shown -- primarily in maps that show the entire state. Many 18th-century maps list the names of the counties in the general areas in which they were located, but do not include specific borders (for some very early maps, the borders may not have been formally established at the time). The county boundary subject should not be used with these maps. The County Boundaries term should also not be used for maps that show only a single county or a part of a county.
Creeks and Streams
There are, of course, creeks and streams throughout North Carolina, however, this term is used in order to give researchers a sense of the amount of detail that is shown on a map. Use this term whenever creeks and streams are clearly drawn, and especially when they are named.
Decorative Illustrations
This term should be used whenever purely decorative elements on a map appear, such as elaborate borders, animals or sea-monsters, ships in the ocean, or illustrations in the cartouche. When a map contains only graphic elements are used to signify elements on the map (such as little drawings of churches or schools), it should not receive this term.
This term is used whenever a map depicts distances (in numeric terms) from one place to the other. This often comes in one of two forms. Many maps print numbers directly on the map, often over a road between two cities or towns. These numbers are not always described in the map legend, but in most instances refer to the distance from one place to the other. Maps from the early twentieth century through the present often include distance tables, showing the distance between locations on the map and elsewhere. Maps that include only distance tables should also receive this term in the Subject - Details field.
Elevation will usually be noted on the map in the form of either spot heights or contour lines (either of which, if present, should be noted in the abstract). Spot heights are numbers, usually given in feet, next to a prominent mountain. Contour lines denote changes in elevation and usually include numbers (though they aren't always easy to find) denoting the height at different places. If either of these appear on the map, this term should be added to the subject_details field. If the map simply shows a drawing of a mountain or mountain range, elevation would not be used in the Details field.
Forts are often shown on early North Carolina maps. These are not always mentioned in the legend, and there doesn't seem to be a standard symbol. In most cases the name of the fort is fully written.
Houses are depicted on many maps, though they are rarely listed in the map legend. In the majority of cases, the houses appear simply as small black squares. These are easy to miss, but very important. This term should be used whenever a map depicts the specific location of houses or farmsteads, even if it does not list the name of the owner or give the boundaries of the land (there are separate fields for that).
This term, like Creeks and Streams, is used to give an idea of the level of detail shown on the map. It should be not be used too generously. If, for example, a statewide map shows only one or two large lakes (Lake Mattamuskeet, for example, would be difficult to omit), it's not worth mentioning. However, if the map shows smaller lakes and ponds, then it is a good idea to use this term in the subject_details field. This will help researchers who are looking specifically for inland bodies of water, as well as those who are trying to find maps give a detailed depiction of the terrain.
Land Cover
Land Cover is used to describe the depiction of different types of vegetation shown on a map. Some land cover maps are extremely detailed, using different symbols to illustrate the spread of many specific types of vegetation. For historic North Carolina maps, land cover is seen most often on Coast and Geodetic Survey maps. These designate, using symbols, forested areas, farmland, and marsh lands. Some historic maps will simply print the type of land cover on a specific section of the state.
Land Use
Land Use is used primarily to describe maps that show agriculture and different types of development.
Landowners show up on more maps than you might think. It's not always easy, at first, to distinguish between names of prominent landowners and names of cities and towns, and might require a little research. Prominent landowners are listed on many early regional maps, and both prominent and not-so-prominent ones are named on many later county maps, especially the detailed, privately-printed maps published in the early 20th century. This field should be used whenever landowners are listed by name.
If a legend is used on the map, that fact should be recorded by entering this term this field
This term is broader than it might appear at first, having been applied to a number of different structures and businesses over North Carolina's history. Early mills, powered by water, were simple operations used to grind corn and grains. By the late 19th-century the term was used primarily for textile factories, though it was also applied to other types of businesses. For this project, we use this term very loosely. The rule is, simply, if the word mill is used on the map, then this term should be used in this field. In many cases it's impossible to tell what kind of operation it is, the map might show a name ("Ricks Mill") or else just a the word mill or a symbol. If there is more information about the kind of mill, that should be included in the abstract.
Mines and Mineral Deposits
There are (or were) quite a few mines in North Carolina. Gold, iron, and copper have all been mined in the state at one time or another. Mines and mineral deposits are often noted on maps, even statewide maps showing a broad area. Use this term even when the map appears to show only a mineral deposit and it is not clear whether or not there is actually a mine in place.
Most early maps include pictorial representations of mountains but they are imprecise and generally indicate mountain ranges rather than specific peaks. Later maps vary in their depiction of mountains. If only mountain ranges are present without careful placement of particular mountains/peaks, those maps do not receive the "mountains" term. Where particular mountains or peaks are named and height is indicated by hachures or contour lines, those maps receive the "mountains" term. The more sophisticated geological maps will receive "mountains" as well when contour is shown, elevation is given and/or peaks are named.
Where elevation is given, these maps will also receive the term "elevation."
Native American settlements
Most early maps note the location of Native American tribes in the state, especially the Cherokee in (increasingly) western North Carolina. Whenever a tribe name is present in the state, this term should be used. The names of specific tribes, if they are given on the map, should be noted in the abstract.
This term is used primarily when state or national parks are shown on a map.
Some maps, especially the group of privately-printed county maps that were published in the early twentieth-century, have photographs (often of prominent citizens or homes) in the margins. If that's the case, note that fact here. If there are engravings in the margins or elsewhere in the map, then use only the Decorative Illustrations term.
Places of Worship
This term is used to denote the presence on the map of churches and other places of worship. These are signified in a number of different ways on early maps. Churches are often shown with a small drawing of a church building, or else a cross (often, but not always, described in the map legend). Quaker Meeting Houses are commonly shown on many early maps, especially around the western Piedmont region. On some the whole phrase "Quaker Meeting House" is printed, others simply have a "Q.M."
Political Districts
While all governmental divisions (such as states and counties) can probably be called political, we're not being quite so broad here. Use this term when non-standard (at least as far as maps are concerned) political divisions are depicted, such as congressional districts or school districts.
There are a few very different instances in which this term would be used. When population is listed in a table in the margins, use this term in subject_details. It should also be used if the population of a city or town is noted on the map itself. And finally, it should be used when relative population is noted (often by symbols of varying sizes used to denote cities and towns).
Post Offices
Post offices are sometimes shown on county and local maps, and occasionally appear on larger regional and state maps. The location is usually depicted with the abbreviation "P.O."
Property Lines
Many maps, both manuscript and printed, show property lines. This project will include a handful of manuscript maps produced specifically for the purpose of recording the location of private and/or public property. Others simply include property lines in an effort to show a great amount of detail. Coast survey maps, especially when they show a good portion of land, often include property lines.
If a railroad is shown on the map, even if it is not named, this term should be used. Railroads are almost universally depicted by single lines with shorter lines across them. If the railroad is named, the name should be noted in the abstract.
While this term is used to signify the presence of modern highways and roads, it is also used when maps show older plank roads or trading paths. These are often present even on very early maps.
Most city and county maps show schools. And in most of these cases, the schools are clearly labeled.
Soundings (measurements of depth in water) are shown on many early maps, maps of the coastal areas, and nearly all coast and geodetic survey maps. These often appear as numbers scattered around the areas just off of the North Carolina coast. See the Relief page for examples.
Stores (probably all-purpose or "general" stores) are often depicted on North Carolina town and county maps, and occasionally on regional and state maps. Stores are usually pretty clearly labeled, denoted simply by the name (for example, "Garret Store," or "Biddle's Store"). There does not appear to be a common symbol used for stores. Whenever stores is used in this field, the broader term Businesses should also be included.
As with Mountains and Lakes, the cataloger should use a little discretion in assigning this term. Nearly every map of North Carolina will note, at least, the Great Dismal Swamp in the northeast corner of the state. Unless the Great Dismal is prominently featured or particularly carefully mapped, this term may not be necessary. However, many regional and county maps do depict smaller swamps, which are quite prevalent throughout the eastern section of the state. Sometimes swamps are simply noted on the map with a name, no different from a city or town. However, mapmakers often depicted by swamp areas with a series of horizontal lines, to give the section a darker appearance, and small drawings of what look like bushes. While these areas are clearly defined, they are not always named as swamps.
Beginning in 1868, North Carolina counties were divided into smaller administrative districts called townships. Maps showing the township boundaries were prepared and submitted to the state government in Raleigh. Subsequent maps often showed townships, and many of these are easy to spot, as the townships are coded by color. Use this term whenever a county map shows the names and boundaries of the townships.

Thank you Carol, I can't wait to start using Desing Spark
Hello fro Chicago
Yes already downloaded very nice tool.
Thank you.
good presentation - the format is fine given the screen captures, colored/highlighted arrows and use of colored indicator ovals. The lecture portion ties the slide content together well enough ...
also glad you went over ground nets, same is true for Vcc nets as often they may get over-looked unless one is aware / careful
mounting holes for stand-offs or enclosure mounting might be nice
glad you mentioned thermal pads and vias
URL for PCBArtist User Tips Guide has changed from what is in the presentation, and apparently page numbers have changed as well. Look here http://www.4pcb.com/pcb-software-tips-tools.html for the updated version and other resources, or search Google for "pcbartist user tips".
Good presentation, Thank you Carol and Rob
Planning to use PCB design tools for MCU and POWER project
Downloaded DesignSpark and played with it.
Hello from Oregon
Howdy archived class!
I have not downloaded the software.
hi carol
Thanks for another great lecture
I havent downloaded design spark software yet
Looking forward to another good lecture
Picking up another one
I have downloaded DesignSpark and will use it for a project or more.
There are tutorials with DesignSpark.
When I download DesignSpark, does it come with tutorials ?
Thanks you Carol; excellent presentation.
I've never used DesignSpark; I'll try to use it soon.
Thank You see you tomorrow. Rod. R.
I did down load the Design Spark software and have looked into it.
Great topic and outline design rule.
Good afternoon from Edmonton, AB. Better late than never, hello Carol, Rob and all who are still here.
Thanks everyone for participating in today's program. And most of all, thanks to Carol for an excellent presentation. See you all tomorrow.
Thanks Carol
bye for now
Have not downloaded design spark yet, but I believe I will just to look at it.
You're welcome to MayanBlood, Batye, Jamie, and everyone who chimed in and listened in. Thanks for coming.
good day to all
thank you
@garysxt, hear hear! Always double check. Tomorrow, I'll go over reviewing the gerber files! Always review your gerbers. These are lessons you usually learn the hard way.
I'm coming at layout from an engineer's perspective. I've found that most layout professionals are not from that background. They tend to happen into it. There doesn't seem to be a education path for it.
I agree with Carol and Zwilrich on separate custom libraries. If it is in there I know it is correct. I have found errors in the parts in some libraries. Never trust a part until you verify it - especially ones you create yourself. :-)
Thank you
Yes, Library Management is a must. Especially in DesignSpark where you are depending on pointers and the order of the library paths are important, you can really screw up your design if you are not careful about separating out projects.
To make matters more complicated, you can have multiple libraries in one folder, and I don't think there is a way to only used a particular library file and not others in the same folder.
always learning!
@RMass, Sorry if it's not exactly the same. I've used it for many projects and I tried to remove all the customizations short of re-install. Looks like I missed a few. Hard for me to tell. Hopefully you have learned enough to fill in the blanks.
Working with Eagle, I've found it makes life much easier to follow Carol's idea of putting all of your parts in a custom library. You spend much less time looking for the right part. Also, in older versions of Eagle, the parts were on a metric layout. This caused all sorts of headaches when doing a layouts with imperial measurements.
I use a separate library for each major project. Having a separate library makes it much easier to find the part you need. It also means if you change a part in one project, it doesn't mess up a different project.
@ JSP. Your welcome. Good to know you find it useful. Let's hope DesignSpark keeps adding to the features and continues support!
thank you
Sounds like there is a wide range of experience here, and applications. That's very interesting. I hope most people have learned something.
The DesignSpark I downloaded has different features, Librarys than the one in the presentation.
Just saying it can be a bit annoying trying to perform the steps on the tool and participate in the lecture at the same time.
I'm really enjoying this. Didn't know these free SaaS packages were out there. For this level of effort, I had just used ExpressPCB layouts etc in the past, but this is heaps better, almost professional. Perfectly fine for this level of board complexity. Thanks for putting this together Carol.
The archive of this program is available now.
except the fact that the pcb program used here is for hobbyists, all the professional packages work the same way. here people will get the idea how to use something like this and what are the basic steps to get a board from a schematic and the schematic from an idea.
Well put!
What Software does this Design Spark uses. I tried loading it on Windows 7 Enterprise and it gives me error.
I've enjoyed the DesignSpark tutorial seminar, but it would have been better as a video.
Hello everyone! Let me catch up on the chat.
Using pcb design for I/O , TC and RTD test pcbs
Thanks for this class and thanks for fixing the problem with the audio!
Everything from simple UV LED boards (no drivers) to complex embedded systems for testing 40 laser diodes at at time.
Thank you for the training session. Back again tomorrow.
@Rob: Really just wanted background to better understand what my hardware engineer colleagues go through to get a board ready for my software/firmware.
Use PCB layout mostly for microcontroller based applications.
Thank you!
Thank you Carol!
I used Eagle to design a PCB that plugs in to a Microchip Explorer16 Dev Board. It has a little DS1825 temp sensor on it. Had to fab a board because no other way to solder those tiny pins!
Thank you Carol. Enjoyed lecture very much...
Bench Test Boards. Demo board.
@Rob - mostly embedded - mixed signal, SMT, 14-layer+, thin traces, lotsa custom libs.
Application specific boards (sensors, microprocessor/microcontroller, interface)
@Rob - various...
thank you Carol,
Mostly experimentation layouts
@Rob - Using the design to build a MCU based sensor array.
used for general design (everithing)
Thank you Carol
Hello from Milwaukee (a little late)
A/D conversion and uC's
Microcontrollers and related peripheral interfaces
ARM9, Pics, USB
Thanks, Carol - great session today.
LED Drivers
@Rob - Working format is fine.
Thkx Carol, Rob, Duzyn Nuwz, Digikey.
@ ajohnson151 - if you have room and can do it, why not ?
We're now on slide 19.
Can i run all the traces on the top layer?
this format it is ok.
The format is just fine for most of the courses. A live demo of what Carol is doing would be better for the kind of things Carol is showing in this class.
We're now on slide 18.
@Rob - PDF slides may be better (less dependency on M$)
Format is fine, had to switch from IE to Chrome for audio - no biggie.
Might "print the PowerPoint to PDF" for some folks - have two "Today's Slide Deck" formats, otherwise it's excellent!!
I would prefer an actual Webinar where we can see what Carol is doing as she speaks.
While slides and audio work after a fashion it seems pretty primitive considering the technology we have today.
The format is good..
Yeah, seeing Carol doing it live would be pretty cool too.
I like the format. Fancier versions get defeated by my employer's over restrictive IT policies.
@Rob - this format is fine for me... a live video may be better but could cause more issues that what we have now (recently) with audio
@Rob: This format is fine.
I like the Powerpoint as a guide and reference, but would also like to see live interaction with the application.
this is good.
this format is fine for me
@ Rob - suits me.
Aside from some technical snafu's, how is this classroom format working for you on this subject?
We're now on slide 16.
Hello everyone! Almost made it on time today...
The archive of this program will be available within moments of when Carol finishes her lecture. I'll let you know when it's archived. Shortly after 2:30 Eastern.
We're now on slide 15.
I got behind on audio too, and now it is trying to buffer, but is buffering slower than the audio plays. I'll just listen in later when the audio is available. Thanks Carol!
We're now on slide 14.
But if we listen carefully to Carol, we dont need manual queuing... Get along with Carol..
OK, I'll try the slide announcements again.
People - let it GO!
I agree with Mr. E
@Rob: The slide announcements are generally helpful, even if your latency is a little lower than ours.
Seems the program text and audio is not sync'ed for all users. I'll quit confusing things with slide announcements.
I think this setup is the best and comfortable for both the lecturer and the student. We have control over slide show and audio is gr8 after the player upgrade..
I'm now on slide eight.
We're now on slide 10.
no issues... :)
The_John -- Sorry about the tech snafu's. Try refreshing your browser or you could see if switching to the Chrome browser works.
audio is ok here, issues at all...
@The_John, it is free man. I am just glad they are willing to provide it at all. Reload the page a couple of times. That did it for me.
You guys have REALLY got to get your technology fixed. The audio cutting out is REALLY annoying...
We're now on slide eight.
hi all,
@Carmine: Likely you have experienced some dropped audio so that your audio feed is now a little behind. Rob is likely synchronized with Carol.
@Carmine, That is because we are hearing the audio after buffered in our browser... Chat is almost direct..
Thanks for letting me know, Carmine.
@Rob, The the text in this chat is ahead of Carol's audio. Your Slide Number announcements are ahead of Carol.
We're now on slide six.
We're now on slide four.
Just started???? Where is the beginning (slide 1,2,3,) of lecture???
The new radio player looks good.
Tried DesignSpark a while back and liked it, but don't do that kind of work often.
We're now on slide three.
the clouds are the little thick view not so good
I've d/l'ed a free version of Eagle, and played with that. Didn't have any need for scripts, and created a complete 2-layer board. Haven't tried DesignSpark yet.
Hi All. Good day..
Hello from Portland
We're now on slide two.
I have downloaded DesignSpark and have used it.
Have not downloaded DesignSpark yet. Still using Eagle.
@Dan - Do you get a good view of the Rings ?
Yes, I downloaded DesignSpark and have been working through it.
Good afternoon Carol.
We're now on slide one.
Yes & Yes
Good Day
Audio has started.

Well last night will have been good for their confidence but we are more rested. Take care of business Clips!!!!!!!!
Wiz have a quality starting 5. I too hope for tired legs after beating GSW.
1-1 is a very successful road B2B for the Wiz against these two teams. Jump on them early and they'll roll over. Defensive pressure from the jump.
After beating the Warriors last night, the Wizards may have tired legs for this game. I hope Clippers take advantage and win this one!
Warriors lost so that keeps them further down in the standings. San Antonio lost to Houston and Portland lost to Memphis. Also, the Thunder play Miami this afternoon so there's a good chance for the Thunder to lose.
All of last nights losses closed the gap between the 2-4th seed, so we are only 1.5 games behind Portland, and 2 games behind San Antonio.
I love this narrowing of the gap but this is all due to the top teams finally playing top notch opposition, so we can't assume this trend will continue. We need to make trades to get into that top 3.
Only the Thunder scare me. If they have the 1 seed, I'm ok with the 3rd or 2nd seed. If they have the 2nd seed, I'm ok with the 4th or if we run like God, the 1 seed.
I think our 3 point defense gives us a good chance against Spurs, Blazers, Warriors. We have Houston's number so I'm not worried about them.
Keep the warriors at the 7-8th spot
Game will be very tough seems the Wizards are better on the road than at home. NeNe playing will be tougher than before because they are going to try and attack us with interior scoring and passing that means DJ and Blake have to step it more so then the last few games. Suspecting John Wall to go at Collison often. This is one of those games where defense must be played at a high level.
2nd seed would give us home court in the second round, so we should push for that and it's within reach; the Thunder aren't even really out of reach. We should win this game, second night of back to back for Washington and we've already blown them out on their home court this year.
I know we say this about a lot of games, but this is a CLASSIC trap game scenario:
The team's finally home after a successful 7 straight game road trip; liable to become too relaxed.
Playing a mediocre team on their 2nd of a back-to-back but with enough talent to score against anyone.
Know we have to play at Golden State TOMORROW. Blake, especially must be looking forward to that game.
I hope I'm wrong and the Clippers stay focused.
Well trap game or not we need to do away with this team early so we can be fresher for that all important game against GSW tomorrow..
Wizards 6-3 in their last 9 games. Good defensive team, ranked 10th in DRtg.
Always the 1st game back from a long road trip is the toughest one. Gotta stay focused.
Clippers -8.5 tonight.
I hope Collison has a big game against Wall. And Blake should have his way with Nene. We have to win this game and close in on Portland and San Antonio in the standings.
I hope we takecare of them fast and rest for golden state !!
Whatever happens tonight won't matter as long as we get the W tomorrow night tonight's game won't really matter.
Let's get it, Clips!
One game at a time clips. Worry about the "Warriors" tomorrow.
Let's get the win!
Blake missing 2 FTs in a row lol.
refs and their blind retardism
Good D by Blake on Nene there.
These wizards love to run
Hope we take things up a notch. So far were playing so-so at best.
Great Job by Matt there to force a jump-ball.
Wow inbound turnover? Rookie esque mistake.
Collison with 2 fouls there.. That's not good.
Bs technical, can't show any emotion in this league
**** refs are ****
BG needs to keep his cool. Not good.
He gets suspended at 15?
A long 3! by Jamal brings the Clippers within 1.
Crawford.. BINGO!
These are the kind of shots that can make a difference.
Jamal bingo! Wow!
Jamals specialty wild and erratic
This was a so-so first quarter, just trading baskets with the Wizards. I hope the Clippers can get a good separation in the second quarter.
How many does he have?
Dudl3y for three!
Even when turk misses he still ends up making a positive impact
Dudley getting hot
Jamal is shooting well tonight. Made all his free throws so far.
He has 11. Two of those were rescinded by the league.
Dudley playing like warm porridge - hot, smooth, and just a little bit chunky
I have concluded that Barnes is actually not that good at layups lol. I feel like dude misses quite a few of them
that's an awful call on blake's post up
Gortat gets a technical, lol. I wonder what he said to get that.
Ok matt...

go watch some more basketball then
Paul Davis, Chris Kaman, Eric Gordon
I love DJ, but Paul/Griffin/M.Gasol would be a pretty deadly 3 man combination in terms of them all complimenting each other well.
Gasol hits about 48% on his mid-range jumpers, is also an excellent passer, is a very good defender, and despite not being a special rebounder numbers wise, he boxes out and helps you there.
He'd spread the floor for Griffin and they could have a different high low combination and Griffin can find him for kick outs for spot up jumpshots. The Paul and Gasol pick and pop combination would be excellent. Gasol would give another post-up option if Griffin's matchup isn't working and the team wouldn't miss a beat defensively.
Just saw that you posted the same thing, and I agree. I would just want to add a solid wing defender to the mix. Redick is on this team, so it would need to be a SF. Maybe get a big SF like Marvin Williams.
M.Williams (Granger?)
^ I agree, Gasol & Blake would be magical. It wouldn't just be Blake throwing lobs to the Center anymore, Marc can repay the favor and would make Blake better.
I'm happy with DJ though, if he can play consistently through the playoffs we should keep him.
Paul,Redick,Griffen,James and Vucevic
The one thing I like about DJ is that he is durable.
Is that the ONE thing you like about DJ or one of the things you like about DJ?
Yeah, DJ isn't exactly the best passer, although I have noticed that he's been making some killer outlet passes after grabbing defensive boards lately.
Baby steps.
Haha. If it was the only thing I liked about him I wouldn't like him very much. He is a very good rebounder and is doing a better job at being a rim protector. Opposing FG % at the rim with him on the floor is a mediocre 50% or something but remember at the start of the season it was in the upper 60s% so that is why his numbers are mediocre in that regard. It just shows how much he has improved as a the season went on and its not only his fault. He was getting used to the system and our wings were doing a poor job defensively.
But yea durability is very important. It doesn't matter how good you are if you can't stay healthy. That Is one key advantage a guy like DJ has on Gasol. He is young and never misses games.
Totally agree about durability. Maybe it is one of the reasons Doc has risked not getting a proper back up for him.
He hasn't because he hasn't found any capable ones and Big Baby is fine at C anyway and Doc likes small ball anyway.
Anthony Davis is power forward unless one of them will play center.
I say Paul Griffin and Marc Gasol, a defensive center with good jump shoot and passing ability, this is best big 3 with Reddick and Barnes who can hit 3, wow.

Engineers at NXP Semiconductors say they've found a way to take the "coldness" out of dimmable white light-emitting diode (LED) light.
Using a combination of new technologies that earned the company 15 patents, the company's engineers can reportedly remove the harshness from white LEDs and replace it with the "warmer" combination of yellow and white that's familiar to consumers. Known as "sensorless sensing," the new technology could serve in automotive, architectural, aviation, and industrial LED lighting applications, among others.
"LED lights have always had this cold white -- a hospital white," Radu Sudeanu, senior scientist for NXP, told Design News. "But now we know how to correct it to get the right color."
With its new technology, NXP hopes to make LEDs acceptable to a broader swath of consumers. In the past, some retailers have reportedly received dimmable white LEDs back from unhappy customers, some of whom say the light is too much like that of a fluorescent bulb. "Many people don't like it," Surdeanu told us. "They want the same yellowish light that we've all grown accustomed to for a hundred years with the Edison bulb, and for a thousand years before that with fire."
NXP engineers remove "coldness" from LED light with a three-pronged solution. By combining the black body radiation curve (which relates light wavelength to light intensity) of an incandescent bulb with a logarithmically-based dimming technique, and then correcting for temperature variation, they say they can produce a color that lies between amber and white.
The trickiest and most unique part of the solution is the ability to correct for potential temperature variations, Surdeanu said. The company's scientists accomplished that by measuring the electrical properties -- voltage, in particular -- at the LED's junction. Knowing the voltage, they can predict the temperature of the LED with 1°C in 10 µs. As a result, the system can eliminate potential changes in the wavelength of the emitted light. "Knowing the temperature, we can correct to get the right color," Surdeanu said. "We can do that because we know how LED color shifts with temperature."
Because this "sensorless sensing" technique provides important feedback on the performance of the LED, it is particularly applicable to automotive applications. By "knowing" the temperature at any given time, automotive LED systems can employ the technology, not only for overheating protection, but for aging prediction. As a result, the technique enhances the reliability of LED-based automotive systems. Surdeanu said it will soon be employed by an unnamed automotive OEM.
Surdeanu added that the temperature correction technology can be easily integrated into an LED's driver without the need for additional external components, such as temperature sensors and heat sinks. "When you have those three points -- the black body radiation curve, logarithmic correction, and temperature-effect correction -- that's all you need you to start dimming properly," he said.

Associated Press
ATLANTA — Andrelton Simmons and the Braves haven't said much about last year's NL wild-card loss to the Cardinals.
Beating the Cardinals in July won't make up for that playoff defeat. But Simmons said it's a start.
Simmons hit a two-run double in the eighth inning and the Braves, boosted by Julio Teheran's sharp outing, beat the Cardinals 2-0 Saturday in a matchup of NL division leaders.
The Braves have won the first two games of the first series between the teams this season. The Cardinals beat the Braves 6-3 at Turner Field in last season's wild-card game.
"They're a great team," said Simmons of the Cardinals. "They got us last year in a pretty big game. We owe them some. It's good to see this team beating them."
Teheran allowed two hits in seven innings, striking out six and walking one.
Simmons' bases-loaded, two-out double came on a 99 mph fastball from Trevor Rosenthal. With the count at 2-1, Simmons was looking for a fastball.
"I know he was behind in the count and I know he's comfortable with his fastball," Simmons said. "He throws pretty hard. I was ready for it. ... I was just looking for something over the plate and he threw it somewhere I could reach it."
Randy Choate (1-1) walked Freddie Freeman to open the eighth. Evan Gattis struck out and Brian McCann singled. Rosenthal relieved and struck out Dan Uggla before walking Chris Johnson to load the bases.
Luis Avilan (3-0) pitched a perfect eighth and Craig Kimbrel recorded three outs to earn his 30th save.
Cardinals starter Joe Kelly pitched 6⅓ scoreless innings, allowing seven hits and walking three in only his fourth start of the season and first appearance since July 12.
Teheran allowed a two-out double to Matt Holliday in the first and then walked Allen Craig. The right-hander permitted only one baserunner – Jon Jay doubled in the fifth – through the next six innings.
"I think that's the best game I've ever pitched," Teheran said. "The command I had today, I think that's the best I've had this year."
Simmons hit eighth as Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez juggled his lineup. Heyward hit leadoff for only the second game this season.
Upton, normally the No. 3 hitter, batted second for the first time in 2013.
Simmons had two hits. He ranks second on the team with 14 go-ahead RBIs, but said he was overdue to deliver the clutch hit.
"I know I've been struggling with runners in scoring position this year," Simmons said. "I've been trying, but it's nice to see results."
NOTES: With two hits and a walk, Johnson is hitting .332 to tie the Cardinals' Yadier Molina for the NL lead. Molina was 0 for 3. ... The Cardinals optioned OF-1B Brock Peterson to Triple-A Memphis to clear a roster spot for Holliday. ... Gonzalez said he is 95 percent certain RHP Brandon Beachy, returning from elbow ligament-replacement surgery in June 2012, will come off the DL to start Monday night's game against Colorado. ... The three-game series ends Sunday night when Atlanta RHP Kris Medlen faces St. Louis rookie RHP Shelby Miller.

A couple of days ago I wrote about Jane Linfield who after the death of her first husband David Burtenshaw married my 3x great-uncle Edward Gasson.
Edward himself is already of interest to me because his birth in 1860 is one of the few clues to his father's brief time serving in the Metropolitan Police.
His father Thomas Gasson (my 3x great-grandfather) served with the Metropolitan Police for a few years around 1860. I still don't know the exact dates, but the family were up in Middlesex in the 1861 census and possibly were there for a couple of years either side of that date.
Apart from the 1861 census and the birth of Edward the only other possible bit of evidence I have is an entry in the Metropolitan Police Order Book for 1861 (TNA MEPO 7/22) which records that P.C. 265 Gasson was dismissed for being drunk on duty. I can't say for certain that this is my Thomas Gasson, but the date would fit.
I am naturally interested in finding out more about Thomas, because someone serving in the Metropolitan Police makes a welcome change from the typical agricultural occupations of my ancestors.
I had hoped to be able to learn something more from Edward's baptism record and perhaps one day I might, if I can ever find it. As more and more records are indexed and put online there is a chance that it might turn up eventually.
I have long known that Edward's birth certificate could be a key piece of evidence, hopefully this would give me an address for Thomas and his wife Harriett. I am not quite sure where I might be able to go after that, but in this business every little piece of information helps.
It is for this reason that there has been an entry on my to-do list for several years, reminding me that I need to order a copy of Edward's birth certificate. I think it might be about time I got my credit card out and ordered that certificate.
