My mind is boggled still by how steeply Blake's rebounding numbers have fallen off. It negates his offensive improvements. I'm really annoyed we resorted to jump shots after he led that comeback in the second quarter. He is our best player and needs to take the most shots.
Maybe rebounder of the year
They game exposed a lot of issues. No small forward contribution. No team length. JJ can't handle athletic defenders. Need a back up center
As I've said before, it's because Doc doesn't want Blake rebounding right now it seems. Seems like Doc wants him to leak out and play a point forward sort of game instead of hanging around the rim.
His rebounds are so empty, too. His numbers are only looking better on paper because he actually plays in 4th quarters now. Other than that, I don't see a big change in DJ's game.
I've noticed that good things don't usually happen when JJ drives. He turns the ball over a lot.
I almost see rebounding as an offense statistic. It signals
The beginning of a possession. I think it has little to do with defense and no idea why it is counted as such. Dj is not a good defender. He doesn't have the focus. I think he could have undiagnosed ADD
Aww give it up people was a bad game we move on to the next one. The team overall needs to step up on D they were attacking JJ and Barnes could only foul.
Only player that really tried on both ends was Collison and even he got burned by Curry on some straight one on one plays.
A lot of teams are killing us on second chance points. We have to have someone else securing the rebound
Funny u say that. I tell all my friends that he process time is too slow. By the time he reacts to a play it's too late
In only 13 days if I'm not mistaken. Who the hell is in charge of making the schedule?
You don't lead the league in rebounding without grabbing some significant rebounds...
One loss we will bounce back with a day rest at home against a tanking Utah. Denver should be tough but much more manageable.
I'd like to live in the world of the people excusing this loss, but then I look at the schedule and see no quality wins since December 16th. I'm just tired of getting embarrassed against contenders.
This team plays like they expect to lose against good teams
We really need big and SF , where is Odom or Bynum. Can Corey magette sign for a 10 day.
How does this even makes sense by your own statement rebounding is a defensive statistic as well. If offense starts with a rebound it automatically ends the defensive stand. If you don't rebound we get beat even worse on second chance points not to mention on the offensive glass.
On top of that if DJ is not rebounding who else is? Our second best player had 3! There is no way rebounding can be empty when we are not getting enough rebounds as is on this team.
I just watch the second half and I noticed that they have fire look sluggish, maybe they need to recharge.
Are we going to ignore the fact that every single time we played a great team since then its been on a SECOND game of a back to back without Chris Paul?
Lets look at the two games we loss on the road with Paul.
Dec 25 @Golden State- No Redick and they had to bush league into getting Blake ejected to win.
Dec 26@Portland- No Redick fought our ass off and had a chance at the end and yes we had a mental lapse and loss but we fought damn hard.
This is a great team that has yet to come close to even peaking.
Ok fine only contested rebounds should count. I don't count a ball falling into your hands as defense. Rebounding alone is not a sign of being a great defender - see kevin love. They are important but if 8/10 times the other team waltzes to the rim, who cares if you grab the other two rebounds
This is a tough loss I understand we are all upset. We need to relax and our guys need some rest and get a confidence beat down on the Utah Jazz at home.
Its not just rebounding but altering and blocking shots has been huge for us with running the floor getting easy buckets. A guy can only alter a shot so many times and get that same rebound the team as a whole needs to cover each other. Jordan has had some bad lapses but the over time increase and confidence from Doc has helped us long term.
We need another C not because Jordan is overall poor but a great teams has different players than can help with wins. Our 1st and 2nd unit style needs to be improved.
Two wins against Dallas are quality wins. At Toronto on back to back is a quality win, Toronto is 18-9 since the Gay trade. Neither of those teams are significantly different in quality from the Warriors. Hard to beat good teams when you're mostly playing weak teams.
We're not a real contender without Chris Paul, but we've held our own and have gained some ground in the standings. @Golden State, @Indiana and @San Antonio were all second nights of back to backs on the road, without Paul, we were justifiably heavy underdogs in all those games. Even when Paul was healthy it seemed like a uncommonly amount of games against top teams were the 2nd night b2bs @Miami, @OKC, @Portland, @Memphis. It's a weakness for us, but in the playoffs there are no back to backs. Also we're undefeated at home to teams on back to backs, so we're at least taking care of other the end of it as well.
Sometimes i worry about DJ's defense.. He worry too much about getting in foul trouble rather than guarding the paint and be a defensive presence. You don't really need to block the ball or steal but contess every shot and no easy basket. How can he let barnes dunk that ball to his face, he just stood there were he could've blocked it
No, not only contested rebounds should count. Uncontested rebounds sometimes comes because of a good box out and the opponent then leaves and doesn't try to grab it.
DJ is doing fine on the glass individually, but the team as whole isn't doing as well as it could be on the glass.
Toronto is iffy cause two key players went down half way through the game and they were also in a back to back along with us. Also it is hard to say the first Dallas win was iresepetive of Paul because he got injured because the production he had before he went out was pretty significant in putting the team in position to be able to win.
It's not really a knock on the team, it is hard to beat the higher echelon teams when one of your best players is out and you don't have a full compliment of a roster to make up for it. It's hard to beat high echelon teams on the second night of a back to back after a long road trip, so I mean, people need to be realistic.
No real backup PG with Paul out, 3rd big man still sucks. The team is certainly more talented than weaker teams, but I don't think anyone believes or should have believed that the team is elite without Paul playing. That doesn't make sense.
There is a difference between a loss and somebody getting more points.
The Bridge Brothers Lee and Bogut. DJ can't handle both. They are for real
They shut down our shooters coming off the curl. CP wild have made them garden mulch if they had tried that.
3 Blake spent a lot of time at the elbow. It's hard to rebound from there.
In order to be a ring contender Blake has to improve. This is not a criticism but a critique A to A+. Blake found two guys he couldn't out muscle, the Bridge Bros. Per Steve Kerr. again not to get into the Love/Griffin mess. Love doesn't have to carry a team on his back
BUT-- Per Kerr, BG should have been able to torch Lee with his foot speed if he were fundamentally sound.. Love would have. Again not nay saying but this is what we need for a ring. The other thing is driving to the rim like LeBron. He did that on Bogut and would have fouled him out.
Finally DJ a rebound is a chance at 2 pts period contested or not.. Doc tried to go to him in the post. He got stripped. So What "DJ's working hard" Kerr. Somebody else says that he only needs one post move. Also Kerr and Reggie said that his FT's are all in his head, his form is good. He's worked hard on his post moves. Reward him
Doc said, and I'm sure it's hyperbole, that he doesn't care that much about regular season games because there are too many quirks like all those road games in a row. You don't have that in the PO's
Not to worry
My quick take
1). All the offensive rebounds were inexcusable and it seems like we're giving up a lot lately
2). Remember when our starters would sit the fourth quarter? Our second unit has been suspect. It will change when CP3 gets back because Collison is playing well and will keep the spark going with the second unit
3). Redick was the best move in the off season. He can score 30 any given night and doesn't get enough credit. (Drives weren't working tonight, but up until now, they had been. I think he was getting a lot of no calls)
4). I like Dudley better with the first team. Barnes likes to shoot too much and he's not consistent. At least Dudley's shot attempts were low and he let the big 3 shoot (griffin, Paul and jj). Plus Barnes energy off the bench was a plus
5). Crawford is fun...when it's not important. In general, his best performances last year were when we had a nice lead and the second unit kept extending it. As far as close games and coming from behind, in general he couldn't come from behind last year, or this year really. Love him but every time he touches the ball I expect him to shoot it, which is not what I really want with Blake, cp3 and Jj on the team. Would love him to take a third less shots and pass of dribble drives. (I know a lot of people are gonna argue this, but the guy chucks up a ton of shots...too many for being the 6th man. We remember the spectacular ones and forget that he missed twice as many as he made)
6). Why was DJ trying to make post up moves today? Instead of playing D?
Doc Rivers and the people who do basketball for a living disagree with you. Hubie Brown, a former Coach, says that he is in the discussion for defensive player of the year.
No offense, but you wouldn't know a good defender from a hole in the ground.
Yeah, I'm not going to read too much into this loss. It's one of those "would have been nice if..." games.
Nine games in nine cities in 14 days without one of the best players on the planet... sh*t happens.
Onward and upward. I'm still not sweating the warriors in a 7-game series.
Exactly, and on the second game of a b2b. Lets move on and beat the Jazz.
And you would? Did you watch the game last night? He was getting burned all night. Not saying it was all his fault because no one played defense. But he is a below average paint defender. He was sluggish and slow?
We're doing much better than I thought in CPs absent. I'm not gonna be bent out of shape with one loss
no! Get bent out of shape! Over analyze one game and gloom and doom. Why are you not playing the game?
CP usually goes off against the Warirors, so just that aspect of it alone brings a different dynamic to a game like this. He tore them up last season outside of the game he played injured in, and even with that game added in, his overall performance against them was just killing them. He started off the year putting up big numbers against them.
Hey, look at it this way, at least were doing better against top teams than the Spurs who are like 1-11 against top 7 teams, and I think their win was against this team after Paul went down.
Lol. Yea the spurs is in worse shape. They got injuries left and right plus they're old

Kimberly Flippo, a North Augusta High sophomore, served as the buddy for classmate and special athlete Fred Davis at the Aiken County Special Olympics on Friday. But that's nothing new for them.
"I've been working with Fred for three years, ever since we were in middle school at Paul Knox," Flippo said. "He is amazing and always brightens my day. It's great how Fred has developed over the years and how he has this great personality."
Held at Midland Valley High School on Friday, the Special Olympics welcomed the participation of more than 900 special athletes, both children and adults, from Aiken, Edgefield and Saluda counties. Hundreds of volunteers served as buddies and in many other capacities.
Carmen Downs, an Aiken County School District special education coordinator, previously participated in the Olympic Games as a teacher and, later, as a school-based coordinator at Clearwater Elementary School.
Downs wasn't assigned to attend the event, but had no intention of missing it.
"I'm seeing a lot of kids I taught, 20 or 30 years ago," she said. "I'm seeing regular-ed students who were in elementary school and are now in high school serving as buddies. It's just exciting and motivating, just a beautiful day to be here with the kids."
The Special Olympics began as a single event in Chicago in the late 1960s. Eunice Kennedy Shriver, sister of the late president, John F. Kennedy, helped fund it, and the Special Olympics now is held throughout the world.
The Games in Aiken started about 35 years ago and continues to grow, modeled after the traditional Olympics. Athletes, buddies, teachers and others participated in the Parade of Schools, cheered on by others in the stands in the football stadium. An enthusiastic contingent from Silver Bluff High School – including some energetic tumblers – marched into the stadium proudly. The school was recognized for having the most spirit.
Children ages 2 to 7 and older athletes participated in a variety of activities provided by the Aiken Woman's Club and other groups, including high school volunteers. Bridgestone also coordinated sports programs for the smaller kids. Denise Hanson, a Bridgestone staffer, helped out for the second time.
"I had a really good time last year," she said. "It's fun to see the kids smile and how excited they get playing games."
Aiken Sheriff's Office deputy Bill Tucker said he enjoyed helping kids throughout the morning. Another deputy, Angela Craig, ran with adult special athlete Jessica Glass on a portion of the traditional Torch Run.
"It's a great opportunity," she said. "It's amazing what they can do."
Tri-Development was joined by the three county school districts in support of the Special Olympics.

Love: overrated, no defense
Martin: poor man's Harden who can't function without flop calls
Barea: totally done
Lateral move at best for Golden State.
I think K Love is the best PF in the game but this deal is dumb. It doesn't help either team
It could still be dangerous, if they move Iggy to SG and have Barnes start at the 3. JJ and Kevin could then help solidify their bench.
When I first heard about it I initially thought it was a downgrade, but if Iggy is moved to the SG position it could create some problems. Barnes can defend the bigger player and Iggy can shut down the more dangerous guard. You can then hide Curry on the weakest option defensively. Love is a rich man's Lee in my opinion with a decent 3 pt. game.
One thing's for sure, it'd be hilarious to see Warriors fans try to justify their "flop" whining whenever they play us when they have Curry, Barea, AND Kevin Martin on their team.
Why is Minny throwing in their pick? That's the most Timberwolves thing ever.

I'm offended. We should go to Board of Governor and vote if this poster should force to sell his account. 3/4 vote and you're out!
Dude, its not even close to racist. How many good chinese players have there been in the league? 2? and with a chinese ownership group its possible that they would try to put some of these players on the team. the only positive thing i see coming out of this would be becoming hugely popular in china and all but guaranteeing us 2 starters in the all star game until blake and CP retired
I'm hoping for geffen. Oprah doesn't excite me. I don't understand why anyone would want her. Magic is at least passionate about it and a positive figure in the community. Theres a few other potential people that i don't know anything about but I'm sure some of them would be alright. Grant Hill might be cool but i agree with the other poster that said he probably won't be the one running things
LMAO if you think Yao would force in Chinese players.
Geffen partnered with Yao. And Grant. I just do not want Magic. He had too much of an involvement not to say its a conspiracy , but his name just took to it too much for my liking
Maybe Yao has some game left in him? He's only thirty four. Backup to DJ and the only owner-player? Intriguing.
At least he could probably teach DJ (and Blake) some more post moves.
The conspiracy theories people are making up about every potential owner are ludicrous.
Completely missing the point. I never said that its racist to say Chinese players are bad cause most of them are garbage on an nba level. Its racist to say that Chinese ownership=Chinese players but thats a stretch. I guess its better to say its ignorant or stupid if anything.
Chinese investors aren't dumb enough to sabotage their own team and they don't need help getting Chinese viewership by adding Chinese players(like there are any that we could get that are decent anyway). You can easily get viewership just by winning games and there is only one decent active Chinese player right now. Not even two lol unless Yao Ming decides to suit up too.
The best ownership we can get by far is the triumvirate of Oprah, Geffen and Ellison. None of these other groups can even hold a candle to that. Oprah is good because of her influence in the media. She does not intend to by this team herself because she has no interest in running a basketball operation which is why she wants to team up with Geffen and/or Ellison.
YOu can tell our season is over,crazy shi* is starting to pop up about who will own our team.
Probably will end up being a ginormous investment group no one has ever heard of made up of hedge fund managers. As much of a jerk he is,DTS wanted to own an NBA team. It think the new owners will care less about it being an NBA team vs is being a solid investment with a great return.
Haha yea i meant there have only EVER been like 2 good chinese players, Yao and Lin (Lin is Chinese by blood but it doesn't get much more American than him). And i agree that its ignorant to think that it wold be 50% players. I wouldn't however be surprised to see 1 tho here and there. Winning games is one way to get viewership but its a known fact that Yao was always the starting C in all-star games even when he hadn't played a game all season bc of the chinese voters. Not a bad thing, just a thing, lie how Kobe always gets picked to start, bc we (LA) have the largest market in our conference.
LOL!, maybe you can call Silver too. We came in this board same month, the same day, and the same year what a coincidence. Maybe the same time too. How about we will sell our account together.
Close to banning you for that, but gave you an official warning for it instead. Just substitute "Chinese" in your statement with any other race, such as whatever race you are, and maybe you get the picture. Please do not do it again.
I'm not your V. Stiviano. I am Magic Johnson who orchestrated your dismay
In a short time. Grant Hill already got a group together to buy the clips.
Shelly meeting with steve ballmer today, according to tmz. They better not move team
Again, the NBA has to approve any new owner. They are also not agreeing to this "compromise."
Nothing new to see here until June 3rd. Move along.
Everything that goes on from now until then is just tactics.
Shelly's revenge against L.A. fans -- move the team to Seattle. What a lowlife c***.
The problem with Ballmer owning the Clips is we'll crash and have to reboot every year.
This is a problem. The team will definitely be moved to.
Quit believing everything you read and wait until June 3rd. then we will see MS Shelly can't do a dang thing and the CLippers will be sold to someone providing the team stays in LA. When NO was owned by the NBA and sold,they didn't move did they? Maybe a name change but I doubt it.
For me I don't want a change of name ,let the Clippers name stay forever.
Ballmer said he will not move the team out of l.a. Because it will destroy its value. So he won't be moving it which makes sense. We are one of the biggest markets in the league worth 1.5 -2 billion and we have a long term contract with staples. No way he buys the team and moves them. If that we're the case he could've purchased the bucks for 550 mil and moved that crap franchise
After the Kings ownership drama, I don't trust anything coming from those vultures in Seattle.
Silver addressed the issue of relocating. He wants to make sure the new owners keep the Clippers in L.A. Also:
For her part, Shelly Sterling would not consider selling the team to any group that intended to relocate the franchise, a source told ESPN
http://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2014/05/2 ... /#clippers
Can we change the logo? One of CTB users has a really cool logo of a ship with sails, I dig that.
I like this idea. The cursive Clippers logo or the streaking ball don't really even epitomize a "Clipper," which is a ship.
The more I see the developments the more I begin to think that Shelly's decision to sell the team is no longer to delay the inevitable, but a last ditch effort to make sure this franchise does not get into the hands of Magic Johnson.
Magic is the one who ruined our playoffs partly if the conspiracy to outs Sterling is true.
V. Stiviano initiated the leak of the audios. This was in part due to the fact that DTS cut her off from game suites, and other gifts she was accustomed to receiving. Also, Shelly had a lawsuit initiated against V. Stiviano and all these events threatened Stiviano's life on easy street. Magic saw this opportunity and salivated. He didn't care about the Clippers, all he wanted was a chance to one up the Buss family, and the Clippers would give him that opportunity.
After watching DTS' interview with Anderson Cooper you can tell he loathed Magic Johnson. I do believe that DTS was angered at Johnson for good reason. In fact Sterling spoke very highly of Stiviano, the very person who leaked the tape, yet was furious at even the mention of Magic's name. My thoughts are that the latests news of Shelly finally selling are more to do with a last ditch attempt to make sure that despite being ousted from the NBA the Sterlings will go out denying the sale to Magic...a F##k off Magic!
I would love to see the look on Magics face when he realizes that he's not getting the Clippers:)
I don't want Magic and his group if Guggenheims to own the team out of purely selfish reasons. They screwed the normal everyday Dodger fan out of seeing games,I just know they would have no problem screwing the everyday Clipper fan out of the games too. They only see a cash cow whereas we see a team we love.
Yes, there is that to consider as well. Due to this network B.S. I missed out on a bit of history, missed Josh Becket no hitter
Magic owning this team would be great. He owns the sparks and the dodgers so you know he loves LA and for sure won't move the team. Number 2, he's so well respected by the league and almost every single NBA player. It would be an honor to have him own the Clippers. Might even light a fire under CP3's ass to make him even elevate his game higher. Magic has good P/R skills and is a great face for franchise, he can help mentor maybe some of the clippers players too. He definitely will attact fans from all over to support the Clippers just because of how much power his name has.
Just think about it guys, an all-time top 5 player would own our team. He knows all about winning and creating tradition. I'm all for magic and say the hell with any conspiracy theory. It would be the perfect end to this story if Magic was the one who ended up owning the Clippers.
Not gonna happen. Shelly Sterling is selling the team. It will change ownership, but what do you think Donald told her before he gave her the green light to sell? My guess is "Just don't sell the team to Magic Johnson."
I will applaud when this team is finally in the hands of a billionaire, not named Magic Johnson or Sterling
And he is the face of the Lakers too.
Shelly isn't selling anything. The NBA is still going along with the process to vote DTS out and will sell it themselves.
Either way the team is leaving the ownership of the sterling's. the NBA would probably prefer she sell the team before this process but I'm sure they will proceed just in case. NBA will have to approve the new owner anyway. in any case I don't think Magic will be owner
If Steve Ballmer buys the Clippers the name will have to be the Hollywood Ballmores or the Window8.5s or The LA Dryskins.
to whom do you speak of?
According to tmz.com Shelly Sterling gonna sell the team this week.
That's the only press release by the NBA but we don't know what the real things happening behind Sterlings lawyers and the Commissioner discussions toward a fast settlement of this case.
fast settlement, that's the key. I'm sure the NBA would prefer to sell the team ASAP especially if the prospective buyer is reputable. I'm very certain the NBA wants this to be over.
"NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Bank of America Corp. BAC +3.75% has been chosen as the financial firm to sell the Los Angeles Clippers, according to a report in Bloomberg on Tuesday, citing two people with direct knowledge of the situation. The team's managing partner Donald Sterling has been forced to sell the team by the National Basketball Association after making racist comments. Sterling agreed last week to let his wife Shelly Sterling sell the team to avoid a potential prolonged legal battle with the NBA. Sterling's wife wants at least $1 billion for the team, according to reports. Bank of America shares were up 3.5%."
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/bank-o ... hare_tweet
Why do you think she can't sell the team before June? Technically they own the team until June when they get voted out, so if she sells this week it is a done deal.
I agree. It would be a wonderful SLAP in the face of Sterling and LAL. What could be better?
Best thing about all these recent developments is there is next to zero chance the team will be moved. You pay 2billion dollars for a Los Angeles franchise, you don't move to Seattle or San Diego and cut the team's value in half overnight. Those guys didn't get rich by doing stupid stuff like that. Team is only worth this much money because it's in L.A.
Only concern is speed. Can they get a sale done before FA signing period. If we have a new billionaire owner by that time, we'll probably get even more destination-discounts than last season. If it's all still in flux, we could end up being forced to overpay or just missing out on guys.
Just ran across this on Bloomberg, interesting stuff, when investment bankers are brought in its getting close;
Bank of America Said Hired by Sterlings to Sell NBA Clippers
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-05-2 ... ppers.html
Go to the story and click on the video clip and listen in, the "experts" are saying north of 2 Billion is possible!!!!! Insane, primarily driven by upcoming TV contracts.

Kauai man survives shark attack after bare knuckle battleUPDATED 5:01 AM EDT Oct 23, 2013
He and other surfers had spotted a shark about 20 minutes earlier, but stayed in the water only to be attacked by the animal.Video Transcript
A Kauai man has quite a story to tell - after fighting off a shark with his bare hands. He and other surfers had spotted a shark about 20 minutes earlier...but stayed in the water, when suddenly, it attacked. Sunday, around noon, about a hundred years off shore near Kilauea ...surfer Jeff Horton was waiting for the next set, when suddenly: 23:41:12 I WAS JUST LOOKING DOWN AND THERE WAS THIS BIG DARK OBJECT AND I WAS JUST LIKE, WOAH, WOAH, WOAH, WOAH! IT JUST LIKE JUMPED OUT 21 23:36:30 THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, I'M IN THIS LIFE THREATENING SITUATION WITH THE SHARK, AND IT JUST MISSED MY LEG, MY LEFT ANKLE AND THEN IT TOOK A BITE OF MY BOARD, IT LIKE LATCHED ONTO MY BOARD, SO I STARTED PUNCHING IT, AND YELLING AND FLIPPING OUT, AND I GAVE IT EVERYTHING I HAD. 47 The former boxer began punching the 10-12 foot tiger shark. At one point, he was in the water, on top of the shark - so close, he could feel its rough skin, against his legs. 23:38:50 I GOT A LITTLE BIT OF RUG BURN ON MY LEG, THE SKIN WAS REALLY LEATHERY AND WHEN I HIT IT, IT FELT LIKE HITTING A BRICK WALL, IT WAS REALLY TOUGH, 56 But the former boxer ....never gave up. 23:38:36 I WAS JUST PUNCHING IT AND PUNCHING IT AND PUNCHING IT, TRYING TO GET AHEAD, AND I THINK I GOT ONE SHOT IN THE EYE. 41 After that shot in the eye - the shark gave up - Horton quickly made it safely to shore. Horton tells us he actually went back into the water, later that afternoon, though at another beach, with a different surf board. He plans to hang the bitten board in his home, as a souvenir. If YOU have any shark stories to share-- like us on Facebook and

An interesting set of photos has turned up on the BBC website, showing the current state of Hellingly Hospital in East Sussex.
My interest in Hellingly Hospital, or the East Sussex County Asylum as it was originally known, comes from the fact that my 2x great-grandfather was a resident there for nearly twenty years (see My Lunatic Ancestor).
There is no shortage of photos (and video) of Hellingly Asylum on the internet, but it is nice to see some of them getting an airing on the BBC website.
The sadness of course is the state of decay that has developed and the fact that the site is soon to be redeveloped, although it sounds as if some of the original buildings may be retained.
It is hard to relate these current photos with what my 2x great-grandfather would have experienced. Which were original features and which were later additions? I can only hope that one day a detailed history of the asylum will be written.

"We had a wonderful stay in Orchid Suite. We had a last minute plan to escape the cold with our two children (16 and 20) over Christmas. We were having trouble finding a place with availability over the holiday. My husband found Orchid Suite online and, I'll admit, I was thinking it wasn't going to be very nice since it was still available. I was so pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The property is charming with brick patios and little white lights in the trees. The grounds and landscaping were lush and very well cared for. The pool was warm and clean albeit a little small. There was access to two other larger pools. The location is about a block off Duvall street so we were able to easily walk everywhere. The unit was fresh and clean and decorated in bright colors. We had a wonderful time and will hopefully be back. Thank you!"
Guest Reviews:"Beautiful property and perfect location! We had the absolute best time in Key West. Walked 1 block to Duval to eat and shop, walked 1 block for bike rentals, which we covered the island on and a couple blocks for groceries. We're planning a trip back and will want to stay in the same location."
– Danielle Gaylord"This is our second stay at Key West Hideaways. We stayed in the Orchid Suite. This might be our last in this section of properties. Location is awesome! The grounds are beautiful! A few negatives though. The bedroom is bright white with white blinds so forget about sleeping in. The place just needs a major interior overhaul. On the plus side, I like the feeling of having your own apartment while on vacation. This company has so many properties so I might check out something else next time. They are pleasant and easy to work with."

"If you look at the signatories of the op-ed, you won't find people more qualified than that," William Happer, a professor of physics at Princeton University and a signatory, told Design News. "These people are really heavyweights of the scientific world." (See a list of the scientists below.)
It's worth noting that the 16 scientists who signed the editorial aren't alone. Happer told Design News that after the editorial appeared, he received calls from colleagues who wanted to know why they weren't given a chance to sign.
The signatories aren't making a case for coal, oil, nuclear, wind, or solar power. They don't mention whether we should buy electric cars or gas guzzlers. By most measures, their opinion seems apolitical. They just believe that CO2 isn't a problem.
"The demonization of carbon has really distorted everything we do," Happer told us. "If we could back off and say, 'CO2 is probably good,' it would change the way we do things. We'd like to get back to an honest economic discussion not based on carbon footprints or assumptions about 'evil CO2.' "
Whether we agree or disagree with that assessment, it has the potential to affect everything that engineers do. Every day, engineers make decisions about the design of cars, trucks, furnaces, refrigerators, washers, dryers, and all kinds of industrial products. And the emission of CO2 plays into all those decisions. So a solid understanding of global warming science is critical.
In the wild world of the Internet, many bloggers argue that the science is settled. It's "incontrovertible," they say. But is it? Most scientists would acknowledge that the First Law of Thermodynamics is incontrovertible. So is the Second Law, Ohm's Law, Newton's laws, Bernoulli's equation, and a lot of other bedrock scientific principles. But does anthropogenic global warming really belong in the same breath as those?

Bring forth the Ohio Cup?
Finally, southern Ohio's burden is now lifted. The Reds finally beat the Indians in exhibition baseball with a 7-6 victory on Sunday afternoon.
Last spring out here, Cincinnati was 0-5-1 vs. the Tribe. But don't drink from your homemade Ohio Cups just yet — there are three more spring games left. Of course, there are six more during the regular season. The Reds got the real Ohio Cup in last year's Interleague games.
It's hard to look too much into the results after one day but there was some quick observations.
*Matt Maloney started for Edinson Volquez and looked very, very sharp with two perfect innings. He is trying to earn a spot in the Reds bullpen. One of his fellow contenders for the same bullpen role, Sam LeCure, gave up two hits over two scoreless innings but had four strikeouts.
*Dave Sappelt, who was 3-for-3 in yesterday's scrimmage, sparked the Reds with a long two-run homer to left field. For a 5-foot-9 guy, it was an impressive knock. He's not going to let many pitches get by him, but he was called out on strikes to end the top of the ninth.
*For the guys competing for the bench spots, it was a competitive day. Chris Valaika followed Sappelt and made it back-to-back homers with a shot to right-center field. Chris Heisey started the winning ninth inning rally with a one-out walk and Jeremy Hermida kept it going with a single through the left side.
*Corky Miller (and his mustache) had the biggest hit with the game-winning two-run double off of the right field wall.
*Jose Arredondo made his first big league appearance of any kind in over a year and got the save in the ninth. Although he gave up a leadoff single, Arrendondo got a guy to hit a line drive to Yonder Alonso for a double play.
*On the negative side, young pitcher Donnie Joseph got knocked around for five earned runs, three hits and two walks while notching only one out in the seventh.
Overall, Dusty Baker was happy with the game.
"We looked pretty good," Baker said. "Joseph got roughed up a little bit. He was probably a little nervous. He left some balls down over the heart of the plate after he got a little wild. Other than that, everybody looked pretty good. We played good defense, ran the bases well and had some timely hitting. Our young guys came back and won it for us late."

Would be nice to suit up as soon as possible and get a grove going early.
I wonder what would happen if Boris Diaw tried to back down Big Baby and neither one budged. Would they spontaneously morph into Jabba The Hutt?
That would be pretty neat.
LOL, where did that come from?
Pretty neat? Pretty gross
Thanks for this posting this synopsis of Big Baby. I like the fact that he is "borderline unmovable in the post." LOL That's a great description! I hope he plays tonight just to see what he can really do for the Clippers in actual game time.
It's official!!!! Clippers twitter post a pic of him signing contract
Its official!!!
Hope he plays tonight! Glad to have him on the team. #WelcomeBigBaby
http://www.nba.com/clippers/news/davis- ... esh-energy
Done deal Glen Davis is a Clipper! I like the addition this dude may be undersized but Big Baby plays with a lot of heart, has a good mid range shot, can rebound pretty well, playoff experience with a championship team, and probably the most important one is that Big Baby is familiar with Doc system.
http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/stor ... s-clippers
He will and I'm excited to see how he can help the team.
When you're fat, you're fat
He's not playing tonight
I am recording the game for when I get home. Is Davis in uniform or not. Saw too many conflicting reports to know the answer.
He's not playing tonight.
Thanks. Much less excited to watch now
Big Baby is gonna wear #0 on his jersey, which is funny because it's the same shape as him.
I guess Jamal kinda looks like his # also.
Seems half our team is made up of ex Orlando players, JJ, BB Lickaturk
He is a pick and pop artist so that fits well with DJ and BG so they can pick and roll ie. Davis is a good fit. He also knows some of Doc def systems.
Article from Arash Markazi on "Davis confident he will fit with Clippers"
http://espn.go.com/blog/los-angeles/cli ... h-clippers
I read the other day he will wear #12
http://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2014/02/2 ... ef:nbahpts
Article and then an interview with BB saying why he joined the Clips. You have to scroll down a bit to get to it.
Barnes as well.
He was gonna wear 12 yesterday, but #0 will be his once he gets situated.
can wait to see this guy play I'm excited to see the team get better hopefully he can add another good player
Hope Mullens didn't curse that number
And that team went to the finals
Does anyone know how we decide what color jerseys we wear on any given night? I know powder blue T is for Sundays, white is for home, but sometimes we wear the dark blue AWESOME jerseys at home like vs Lakers, but on the road sometimes we have the red and sometimes the blue. How does it work?
Light Colors like White are for Home
Dark Colors like Blue or Red are Away
Sleeved are on Sundays
Blue is our alternate road jersey, so the road reds are more frequent. What home blues are you talking about though?
I gotta say I've seen the alt blue on the road more than the red. I like the blue more.
I'm watching the game now, and I gotta say Hedo's pretty good. He made a few 3s. And why IN THE DAMN HEL isn't Reggie playing more minutes???
The only time you've seen the blues at home is when were are playing the Lakers and they had home court.
The sleeved baby blue ones.
No, he was talking about the road blues. I just realized he meant our "away" games vs the Lakers.
I don't think I've ever been this excited to see a PF coming off the bench. I can't wait for today's game.
Hey? He said "What home blues are you talking about though?"
Anyhow, am excited to see what BB can do tonight.
Read his post again. He already mentioned the sleeved ones, then goes on about a top secret mystery blue one that we use vs Lakers. He just mixed up the home and away game... honest mistake.
How many minutes do you think Davis will get tonight?
I was talking about the road dark blues. I Think emphasis on 'think' I saw us use them at home a few times, that's all I was trying to say. Anyway I like the new blue alternates. They're cool, I hope we get to see a lot of them.
A bit confusing but it's all good . I really like the dark blue jersey's too.
we have worn the road dark blues at home.. but its just to show us how they look since we don't get to see them very often. they do the reds too.
I'm pretty excited that we landed Big Baby. Here's to hoping that this pudgy Davis works out better than our last pudgy Davis.
& according to www.hoopshype.com/rumors we are the frontrunner to get Granger.
It's a 50/50 shot we sign him. Not bad odds. We see by Friday or Saturday at the latest.
As long as Davis keeps Hollins off the floor, I'm good.
Whoa, this is news to me..
Did anyone else know this?
Did anyone else know this?
Nope, but that's awsome.
Dude with this guy our 2nd unit might finally have a defensive identity. AWESOME.
Ya, and it seems the second year is on the cheap as well.
So we basically got 2 years of Big Baby Davis and a 2nd round pick for Mullens. Are we living in Bizzaro World?

DENVER � It was a startling assertion that seemed an about-face from church doctrine: A Catholic hospital arguing in a Colorado court that twin fetuses that died in its care were not, under state law, human beings.
When the 2-year-old court filing surfaced last month, it triggered an avalanche of criticism � because the legal argument seemed to plainly clash with the church�s centuries-old stance that life begins at conception.
But it also is fueling an already-raging debate in Colorado and beyond about whether fetuses should have legal rights and, if so, what kind.
On Monday, the hospital and the state�s bishops released a statement acknowledging it was �morally wrong� to make the legal argument.
News of the wrongful-death lawsuit came as Colorado lawmakers weigh how far they should go in penalizing acts that harm a fetus, and some worry that the case could diminish the Catholic Church�s credibility in advocating more rights for the unborn.
Miguel De La Torre, a professor at the Iliff School of Theology in Denver, noted that the church often argues for laws recognizing a fetus as a human being.
�If that legislation was to come up again, how could the Catholic Church argue we should protect the rights of a fetus?� he said.
Indeed, last week Colorado�s bishops met with executives at Catholic Healthcare Initiatives, a branch of the church that operates the hospital at the center of the case, to review how the lawsuit was handled. The two released separate statements Monday saying CHI executives had been unaware of the legal arguments and pledging to �work for comprehensive change in Colorado�s law, so that the unborn may enjoy the same legal protections as other persons.�
Spurred on by advancing medical technology that makes fetuses more viable and more visible, states have been expanding some rights to fetuses, sometimes in conjunction with anti-abortion groups and the Catholic Church.
State laws vary widely. It�s difficult to quantify how many states allow wrongful-death lawsuits on behalf of unborn children because each state has different case law and judicial interpretation. A report from the anti-abortion Americans United for Life estimates that 38 permit such lawsuits.
According to The Guttmacher Institute, which tracks reproductive health issues, 37 states allow some form of prosecution for killing a fetus. A federal law also makes it a crime to harm a fetus while committing other federal crimes.

Bayfield resident Deborah Kaye Webber died after a 4�-year battle with ovarian cancer Monday, March 4, 2013, at her home. She had turned 56 one month earlier.
Known as �Deb,� she was born to Gene and Connie (Rowe) Marsing on Feb. 8, 1957, in Price, Utah. The Marsing family later moved to Grand Junction, where she spent her childhood and met her future husband, Mark Webber.
The couple married Nov. 29, 1975, in Clifton, and the marriage was sealed Feb. 9, 1979, in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Manti Utah Temple.
They moved to La Plata County about 25 years ago. Mrs. Webber earned her teaching degree at Fort Lewis College and taught at Aztec Elementary School for five years before beginning her 12-year teaching career at Ignacio Elementary School.
�Deb was a woman of quiet strength who touched the lives of thousands, especially children, her family said. �She was a beloved first-grade teacher and friend at Ignacio Elementary School. Though a world traveler and car aficionado, her favorite role was grandmother. Deb wore her badge of courage with grace and humor to the last.�
Mrs. Webber is survived by her husband of 37 years, Mark Webber of Bayfield; mother, Connie Marsing of Bluewater, N.M.; children Trenton Webber of Bayfield, Brooke Kittle of Ignacio, Signe Rogers of Farmington, Jackee Alston of Flagstaff, Ariz., and Bryson Webber of Cambridge, Md.; sisters Jennifer Welsch of Phoenix and Julie Lamance of Bluewater; brothers Michael Marsing of Eloy, Ariz., Jody Marsing of Bluewater and Garet Marsing of Gilbert, Ariz.; and 11 grandchildren.
A funeral will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, March 9, 2013, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1690 U.S. Highway 160 in Bayfield. A graveside service will take place afterward at the Pine River Cemetery, County Road 501 in Bayfield.

Wendy�s will be replacing the four trees that it recently removed from the front of its hamburger restaurant at 1840 Main Ave., but the new trees will have to wait until the spring.
Mark Austin, vice president of real estate for the Durango Wendy�s, blamed bad timing for the delay.
The restaurant wanted to remove the trees, which had suffered damage from insects and salt, before �they fell on somebody,� but could not do it before the weather turned cold.
If they were planted now, �they wouldn�t take,� Austin said.
When someone had complained about the tree removal to the city of Durango, Wendy�s got a letter from the city reminding them to comply with their original landscape plan that the city had approved in 1989.
Austin and Mark Williams, a city planner, said Wendy�s and the city would consult with the Colorado Department of Transportation about the kind of trees that should be planted so they won�t obstruct views of the street and pose a safety hazard for traffic.
But the restaurant wants to emphasize that it is eager to plant the trees.
�We love trees, too,� Austin said.

A Florida teacher has been arrested and accused of abusing students, including a 4-year-old girl.
Alison Workman turned herself in to authorities in Brevard County after a three-week investigation.
MUGSHOTS: Have You Seen Death Row's Female Faces?
Officials said a fellow teacher saw Workman grabbing children. The mother of one 4-year-old victim said her daughter, a special-needs student, was left with a scar on her ankle.
"I was outraged," that mother said. "I send my daughter to school along with my other two children, and I expect them to be in a safe environment."
Workman is charged with two counts of felony child abuse, one for each child she's accused of hurting.
She has been suspended from her teaching position as the investigation continues.

eQuinox - CD/MP3
The Hearts of Space Records debut from Swiss pianist Ralph Zurmühle.
The solo piano pieces that make up eQuinox were composed and recorded over a two year period while living in Tucson, Arizona and being inspired by the beauty of the nearby Sonoran Desert.
Availability: In stock.
Product Description
"25 years after the glory days of the solo piano genre sparked by artists like Keith Jarrett and George Winston, the solo piano album remains an elusive undertaking: very easy to do - very hard to do well.
Swiss pianist RALPH ZURMUHLE is one of those rare artists who does it sublimely well, with great sensitivity to touch, melody, and ambience. Listen and you will find yourself in the hands of a master."
:: Stephen Hill, Hearts of Space
"An equinox occurs twice a year, but a solo piano album like this, one filled with so much emotion, can touch your heart and play in your mind forever."
- Liz Doan, Music Design
"Fragile... powerful... a wonder that will penetrate deep in the listener. What beauty!" 5 stars!
Alejandro Clavijo, Reviews New Age
Ralph Zurmühle discovered his natural talent for the piano at a young age. He fostered it over decades of lessons and classical music studies. For the past twenty-five years his ability to convey the deepest emotions through his playing has been on display with his compositions for film, theater and multimedia. In 2005 he composed the score for several classical silent movies and performed the pieces during a series at the Valencian Institute of Modern Art in Spain. More recently his scores have been featured in numerous European feature films and documentaries including Norró, All Secrets and Harvest Moon as well as multimedia projects like L'horitzó and Shift of the Ages Collaborative.

COLUMBIA — Four scientific papers were presented Tuesday in support of the use of small modular reactors, also known as an SMR.
The papers were presented during a discussion in Columbia at the annual Probabilistic Safety Assessment and Analysis event. The event is held with the purpose of studying major risk and safety assessment information for nuclear sites.
"One paper assessed the security risks behind SMRs, and the other three focused on safety assessment," said Thomas Sanders, a Savannah River National Laboratory lab director. "The papers included data on if an SMR needed a back-up cooling system, control system or anything that would impact the critical integrity of a plant."
According to Sanders, who also is president of the American Nuclear Society, scientists at the event studied risk on a "worst-case scenario" basis. The assessments are used to help nuclear plants operate within their means.
"(Probabilistic Safety Assessment and Analysis) takes a structured approach to evaluate the probability of risk and works to reduce that risk," said Sanders.
Sanders continued by listing the advantages of the reactors. He said their smaller size would allow them to be built in a factory, which would reduce production time and make them more affordable. In addition, he said the reactors are flexible in terms of power levels, which would save customers' money.
"The cost per kilowatt may increase, but that would be overshadowed by the speedier implementation," Sanders added.
Sanders feels that the reactors could be regularly used in the next 10 years. American usage of small modular reactors would also spark foreign trade, according to Sanders.
"American technology will be made available for export," he said. "It will allow us to negotiate with other nations in addition to revamping the nuclear industry."
Tuesday's discussion on the reactors came while nuclear sites around the country wait for the Department of Energy to announce the beneficiary of a $226 million grant dedicated to the development of the reactors.
"The Department is continuing to work through the review process for this important program, and is committed to ensuringthat we take the time during the review process to get the decision right," said Niketa Kumar, a DOE spokesperson.
Derrek Asberry is a beat reporter with the Aiken Standard news team and joined the paper in June. He is originally from Vidalia, Ga., and graduated from Georgia Southern University with a journalism degree in May 2012.
