Condition Report: I
Notes: Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika
- You have read and agree with the Auctioneer Terms and Conditions below and the Invaluable Terms of Use Agreement
- You agree to pay a buyer's premium of up to 23% and any applicable taxes and shipping.
Importantly, absentee bidders should note that purchases made using our absentee bid form, by either telephone or in writing, that shipping instructions must be indicated by ticking the box on the bid form. In the absence of this instruction we will automatically assume that the buyer will require Hermann Historica to ship on his / her behalf. The standard shipping charge will cover the costs of packing and postage, together with insurance against loss or damage in transit only. These charges will be recorded on the buyer`s invoice (the insurance premium calculated at 1% of the aggregate purchase figure)
If shipping costs are not recorded on the buyer´s invoice it means either that the buyer intends to collect purchases in person or that standard shipping is not possible. In the latter case this may be for reasons of the abnormal size, weight or fragility of the purchased property, it may also result from the specific application of legal requirements.
In this instance we shall obtain a freight quotation on behalf of the buyer. Upon subsequent receipt of confirmed instructions Hermann Historica shall be pleased to proceed with shipping.
Due to changed regulations it is unfortunately no longer possible to send any kind of firearms from Germany to foreign destinations by regular mail service. We will, if possible, organise international shipping through forwarding agents or specialised courier services, however, with the consequence of noticeably higher shipping costs.
Information importante pour les expéditions
En application de la nouvelle loi, nous sommes au regret de vous informer qu'il ne sera plus possible d'envoyer des armes à feu (incluyant les armes antiques) par la poste vers l'étranger. Toutefois, nous essayons d'organiser ces envois par entreprises de transport ou services courrier spécialisés, mais conséquemment les frais d'envoi seront sensiblement plus élevés.

They are treating this lime a playoff game, making it a christmas white out with t shirts. We seem to struggle in Oakland but would love to take this one. I think we need to split the back to back.
Lets go all balls out and win them both!! It is time (no pun) to step up show people we are for real and an elite team.
I hate mark Jackson and his hypocritical belief
It honestly looks like we are gonna run away with the pacific division award again. This will surely help
Hoping Blake takes it to Lee down low and Dudley puts in a good shooting performance. Going to be a fun one!
All I want for Christmas is to see Mark Jackson humiliated.
Blake throwing down a Mozgov then smirking at the "reverend" before resting the 4th Q because we're up by 30 would be a very nice gift.
LOL I see yuo've got the Christmas spirit causing through your veins there Cleepers. I would take a win happily for Christmas.
And to beat Portland too, now that would be a great present. Come on Santa, us Clips fans have been good
I don't like the Back to Back excuse. If that was a good excuse for losing
there wouldn't be any win streaks in the nba.
We won 17 straight last season and some were back to backs.
Both games are winnable. Portland I feel is easier of the 2.
If they put bogut on blake that could cause a little trouble. Bogut
is pretty strong on the post.
Clippers +2.5. Hopefully we get the 1st road game and don't "need" to win the 2nd one.
Well if this were the beginning of the season I would be really really worried,but I am just worried now so it's not too bad. they are sort of on a downswing, we are for sure in an upswing,go balls out and it is ours. Just no one get hurt pushing it.
Last time we played GS we needed both JJ's and Jamal's 17 points each. Hopefully Dudley can fill any gaps.
This needs to be a win against both teams. I want our road record to be better than it is. Also, a win against Portland would bring huge since this would narrow the gap between us and them. They are currently 1st place...and like the great humpty used to say "please allow me to bump thee."
Damn, I wish we wouldn't have to play Golden State and Portland on a back to back. This is going to be tough, but I think we can pull it off. This will be a good test for us.
Merry Christmas Clippernation. Hope all is well.
May our wishes come true of finally winning a championship and then some.
Today will be one small step towards our final goal. Today we beat the Warriors!!!!
Friggin' Portland has 4 days rest to prepare for us. Where as the Clips played two extra games in between their last game. Who made the schedule?
Back to this game. I have a feeling the Warriors are going to play a good game at home for Xmas. They have been struggling lately and hope to take it out on us, who they perceive as a top enemy. We need to go all out against them to win this.
Lets get this Christmas day game first and than lets concentrate on beating portland..
Again i think this game will be a tougher match up i still don't believe the Blazers are as good as their record indicates
Two real tough tests for us. These are two playoff teams that were are going to face on the road and should we beat them we go from a pedestrian 8-7 road record to a respectable 10-7 road record. Also, it's always a plus to take down teams that are ahead of you in the standings
Or Stephen Jackson slapping that kid Bazemore lol
and Chris Paul going off for over 40. We won't win this game if Chris is lethargic. He has to push the pace
Currently the Clippers stand in 4th place in the western conference. Three teams stand ahead of them: Portland, Oklahoma City, and San Antonio. As I started examining the top four teams in the west I noticed a key difference between the top three and our Clippers.
#1 Portland has an impressive record of 23-5, 11-2 at home, and 12-3 on the road.
#2 Oklahoma City has a record of 22-5, 13-1 at home, and 9-4 on the road.
#3 San Antonio has a record of 22-6, 10-3 at home, and 12-3 on the road.
#4 Clippers have a record of 20-9, 12-2 at home, and 8-7 on the road
For the most part the top three teams are very close in overall record. Only a one game difference stands between the 1st seed and 3rd seed. Yet there are is a 3 1/2 game difference between us and the first seed.
If you examine the numbers our home record is superb. In fact, at 12-2 only the Thunder have a better home record than us. As you can see our achiles heel is our road record. At 8-7 we are closer to performing like the teams below us, which hold a 7-6, 7-7, 5-9, and 7-9 road record than the top three, who pretty much play elite basketball whether at home or on the road.
The reason why this is a concern to me is that the 4th seed is not where you want to be. In the past two years we have seen the 5th seed upset the 4th seed both times. The 4-5 matchup tends to be a dogfight, and it is the most evenly matched series among all the seedings. Even two years ago when we upset the Grizzlies as the 5th seed they beat our team up so bad that Butler, Paul, and Griffin were all hobbled up and basically not at 100% against a Spurs team that was well rested after an easy matchup against the 8th seed. So even when a team wins this matchup it tends to be more physical and hard won that it can result in injury.
If the Clippers are to be an elite team we need them to be better on the road. This road trip can be a great opportunity for us to prove we belong in that elite three. This road trip will have huge implications
I mentioned that the a Clippers were struggling on the road during the little losing streak when people were freaking out. The main guys, Paul, Griffin, Jordan had fairly similar production on the road, as well as Crawford. I believe while still good, a Redick had a big drop off from being great at home.
A few of the role players, mainly Hollins seemed to be struggling on the road. The plentiful loses to some of the Eastern teams were surprising, but hopefully they start to turn a new lead in terms of road play.
Clippers have the best record against the Western conference.
Our 3pt defense has been outstanding and it will be tested again tonight. This is a true test of how far we have come on three point defense and if continue to defend the three like we have the past few weeks we should be able to snatch a win.
Curry and Thompson vs CP and Jamal ooohhhhhhh Lee vs Blake ahhhhhhhhhhhh I can't wait !!!!
Last year Denver snuck up and stole the 3rd spot from us. This year Portland is on its way to finish on the top 3
Matt Barnes breaking that punk's nose with a headbutt and still managing to stay on the floor would be a Christmas miracle!
Was Bazemore the kid that was dancing like an idiot on the sideline and waving his towel?
Yup the dancing jester
I don not think even Santa has that ability. Matt got tosses for a good hard-nose foul.
If you want to go there how about Mullens gets involved? He can not hurt us if he misses any games.
These other NBA games are brutal.
what a clown.
MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy Holidays CTB...
Very sad actually.. I'm hoping for Lakers to put up a fight and they are.. Let's go Lakers!! I want pacers with home court!!
Looks like BG might finally get a signature shoe, he's wearing some tonight with a cool "BG" logo on them, maybe they are prototypes.
This is cold,and I am sorry it went through my head,but watching on TV right now the pre-game show is showing the Clips at a Christmas party with the Salvation Army for 30 families. There is a scene of the Clips walking around, some of them are sitting and reading to the kids (and you hear them reading) ,and one shot of some kids holding up a book with DJ half holding a book with a kid and the first thought in my head was,which kid is reading to DJ (there is no sound in that scene)?
DJ,I apologize !
I wonder who Iggy guards? Chris or Jamal?
Well, no matter what happens I had a Merry Christmas and hope all you folks did too! Good luck. Clippers!
Bcuz whoever he doesn't guard should go off tonight
I got a ps4
"I ain't worried bout nuthin!"
Doesn't Mike Smith read this site? We already covered the Griffin Vs Love who is better situation.
This is going to be a good game. Need to keep up the defensive intensity against this guys. Keep Curry in check.
Road teams are 4-0 today.
Lets go Clips! Make it 5-0.
Doing work early!!
Good start by Griffin on offense. Great job by DJ to recovered after the initial offensive rebound by Bogut and the ball-watching on the following shot.
strong game so far I am so tired I hope we can get to win
Clips starting hot, but we need to get our defensive intensity UP!
Great start by Blake and the clippers
Our big 3 are playing great so far
Paul keep going at him.

Resveratrol is a natural antioxidant compound called a phytoalexin produced by plants when they're subjected to stress. Such stress might include exposure to harsh sunlight or attack by bugs or insects. Resveratrol is found in highest amounts in the skins of grapes and in red wine, but blueberries, pomegranate, blackberries, raspberries and peanuts also contain modest quantities of this natural compound.
Considerable interest in resveratrol was garnered after animal studies demonstrated its health benefits. In cell cultures and in animals, resveratrol stops the growth of cancer cells. It also reduces inflammation in blood vessels, improves blood vessel function and keeps platelets from clumping together to form clots that could lead to a heart attack or stroke. As a result, some scientists believe resveratrol protects against heart disease and may at least partially explain the heart-healthy benefits of red wine. Other research suggests that resveratrol may protect against health conditions such as type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. This may be due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. In animals, it lowers insulin levels and body weight.
Another intriguing finding about resveratrol is it activates a pathway known to be activated with calorie restriction. Research shows that calorie restriction prolongs life and delays aging in a number of animal species from fruit flies to primates. The hope is that resveratrol has similar benefits to calorie restriction and may help to prolong life in humans and animals. Research is ongoing to see if resveratrol has similar effects in humans. Recently, a study in humans showed that resveratrol improves exercise performance by boosting endurance and strength.
Because it is an antioxidant that protects cells against oxidative damage and a compound that reduces inflammation, resveratrol appears to offer anti-aging skin benefits. Oxidative damage primarily due to sun exposure is one mechanism by which skin ages. Free radicals produced by exposure to oxygen and sunlight damage collagen and activate enzymes that break down collagen and elastin, another protein important for youthful skin. Research suggests that resveratrol is a more potent antioxidant than idebenone, a potent pharmaceutical antioxidant. That's why some manufacturers of cosmetic and skin care products are adding resveratrol to their products. You can find resveratrol in facial moisturizers, eye creams and other anti-aging products.
According to a small study published in the American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, resveratrol may be beneficial for treating acne too. Participants who applied a gel containing resveratrol to one side of their face and a placebo cream to the other showed a 66.7 percent reduction in acne lesions on the resveratrol side. Of course, it works best when combined with a comprehensive acne treatment program.
Is resveratrol safe? There are some concerns about taking resveratrol supplements orally, especially for women who have had breast cancer or are at high risk for the illness, until more is known. Resveratrol has estrogen-like properties that may stimulate the growth of estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells. In some studies, resveratrol slows down the growth of breast cancer cells, while others show it stimulates them. The effects seem to vary with the dose. In quantities found in skin care and anti-aging products, resveratrol appears to be safe. The Environmental Working Group's Skin Deep Cosmetics Database classifies it as a low-hazard cosmetic ingredient.
Always apply a sunscreen with a SPF of 30 or greater that blocks both UVA and UVB rays when wearing skin products that contain resveratrol as one study shows that people may be more susceptible to sun damage when regularly using products containing resveratrol.
All in all, resveratrol is an exciting natural compound that may have anti-aging benefits for skin and other health benefits as well. Expect to see more research on this compound found in red wine in the future.

"Where priest and people together face the same way, what we have is a cosmic orientation and also in interpretation of the Eucharist in terms of resurrection and trinitarian theology. Hence it is also an interpretation in terms of parousia, a theology of hope, in which every Mass is an approach to the return of Christ."
Joseph Ratzinger - The Feast of Faith"In those situations where homosexual unions have been legally recognized or have been given the legal status and rights belonging to marriage, clear and emphatic opposition is a duty. ... If all Catholics are obliged to oppose the legal recognition of homosexual unions, Catholic politicians are obliged to do so in a particular way, in keeping with their responsibility as politicians." CDF 2003
One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting. — C. S. Lewis

For contemplation…
"One of the few things in life you can be absolutely sure about is that, if Management tells you it doesn't like your Tone, you are getting something right."
"Latin is a precise, essential language. It will be abandoned, not because it is unsuitable for the new requirements of progress, but because the new men will not be suitable for it. When the age of demagogues and charlatans begins, a language like Latin will no longer be useful, and any oaf will be able to give a speech in public and talk in such a way that he will not be kicked off the stage. The secret to this will consist in the fact that, by making use of words that are general, elusive, and sound good, he will be able to speak for an hour without saying anything. With Latin, this is impossible."

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

Indoor plants need to be transplanted into a larger container periodically, or they become pot/root-bound and their growth is retarded. Water the plant well before starting, so the soil will hold the root ball together when you remove it from the pot. If you have trouble getting the plant out of the pot, try running a blade around the edge of the pot, and gently whacking the sides to loosen the soil.
Always use fresh soil when transplanting your indoor plant. Fill around the plant gently with soil, being careful not to pack too tightly -- you want air to be able to get to the roots. After the plant is in the new pot, don't fertilize right away... this will encourage the roots to fill in their new home.
The size pot you choose is important too. Select one that is not more than about 1 inch greater in diameter. Remember, many plants prefer being somewhat pot bound. Always start with a clean pot! How-to : Repot Now is the right time to repot.
Prevention and Control: keep weeds down and use screening on windows to
keep them out. Remove or discard infested plants, keep them away from
non-infested plants. Trap with yellow sticky cards or take advantage of
natural enemies such as predatory mites. Sometimes a good steady shower of
water will wash them off the plant. Consult your local garden center professional or county Cooperative extension office for legal chemical recommendations. Pest : Spider Mites Spider mites are small, 8 legged, spider-like creatures which thrive in
hot, dry conditions (like heated houses). Spider mites feed with piercing
mouth parts, which cause plants to appear yellow and stippled. Leaf drop and plant death can occur with heavy infestations. Spider mites can multiply
quickly, as a female can lay up to 200 eggs in a life span of 30 days. They
also produce a web which can cover infested leaves and flowers.
Prevention and Control: Keep weeds down and remove infested plants. Dry
air seems to worsen the problem, so make sure plants are regularly watered,
especially those preferring high humidity such as tropicals, citrus, or tomatoes. Always check new plants prior to bringing them home from the garden center or nursery. Take advantage of natural enemies such as ladybug larvae. If a miticide is recommended by your local garden center professional or county Cooperative Extension office, read and follow all label directions. Concentrate your efforts on the undersides of the leaves as that is where spider mites generally live. Pest : Mealybugs Small, wingless, dull-white, soft-bodied insects that produce a waxy powdery covering. They have piercing/sucking mouth parts that suck the sap out of plant tissue. Mealybugs often look like small pieces of cotton and they tend to congregate where leaves and stems branch. They attack a wide range of plants. The young tend to move around until they find a suitable feeding spot, then they hang out in colonies and feed. Mealybugs can weaken a plant leading to yellow foliage and leaf drop. They also produce a sweet substance called honeydew (coveted by ants) which can lead to an unattractive black surface fungal growth called sooty mold.
Prevention and Control: Isolate infested plants from those that are not. Consult your local garden center professional or the Cooperative Extension office in your county for a legal insecticide/chemical recommendation. Encourage natural enemies such as lady beetles in the garden to help reduce population levels of mealy bugs. Pest : Aphids Aphids are small, soft-bodied, slow-moving insects that suck fluids from plants. Aphids come in many colors, ranging from green to brown to black, and they may have wings. They attack a wide range of plant species causing stunting, deformed leaves and buds. They can transmit harmful plant viruses with their piercing/sucking mouthparts. Aphids, generally, are merely a nuisance, since it takes many of them to cause serious plant damage. However aphids do produce a sweet substance called honeydew (coveted by ants) which can lead to an unattractive black surface growth called sooty mold.
Aphids can increase quickly in numbers and each female can produce up to 250 live nymphs in the course of a month without mating. Aphids often appear when the environment changes - spring & fall. They're often massed at the tips of branches feeding on succulent tissue. Aphids are attracted to the color yellow and will often hitchhike on yellow clothing.
Prevention and Control: Keep weeds to an absolute minimum, especially around desirable plants. On edibles, wash off infected area of plant. Lady bugs and lacewings will feed on aphids in the garden. There are various products - organic and inorganic - that can be used to control aphids. Seek the recommendation of a professional and follow all label procedures to a tee. Fungi : Powdery Mildew Powdery Mildew is usually found on plants that do not have enough air circulation or adequate light. Problems are worse where nights are cool and days are warm and humid. The powdery white or gray fungus is usually found on the upper surface of leaves or fruit. Leaves will often turn yellow or brown, curl up, and drop off. New foliage emerges crinkled and distorted. Fruit will be dwarfed and often drops early.
Prevention and Control: Plant resistant varieties and space plants properly so they receive adequate light and air circulation. Always water from below, keeping water off the foliage. This is paramount for roses. Go easy on the nitrogen fertilizer. Apply fungicides according to label directions before problem becomes severe and follow directions exactly, not missing any required treatments. Sanitation is a must - clean up and remove all leaves, flowers, or debris in the fall and destroy.

I must confess to being quite excited about my new plans for this blog, not that there is going to be any major changes, just that I am going to try and be a little bit more organised so that I am blogging more efficiently, thus making more time for actual research.
There will be some new daily blogging themes, although they are not really new, more a case that I haven't used them on a regular basis before. The intention is that I will know what sort of post I am supposed to be writing on each day, but there is lots of scope within each theme for plenty of variety.
There is also plenty of scope to allow me to make a whole week's posts based on a particular subject, such as a place or a person. Also I will occasionally do away with the themes altogether for "special occasions", like genealogy conferences or Remembrance Day.
In essence what I am saying is that although I am setting myself some guidelines, they are not hard and fast rules, so expect things to change. That is assuming of course that I can stick to my plans, which is by no means guaranteed, and it goes without saying that I will probably have switched everything round within a couple of weeks anyway.
Now the only thing I have to sort out is the crazy idea that I should turn my current obsession with the parish of West Dean (near Chichester), Sussex into a one-place study. One part of me says "go for it, it would be a great subject for a one-place study", but the more practical part of me says "when are you ever going to find time to fit that in as well?"
I just can't get the idea out of my head at the moment and I am already mentally making plans, but I know it is just not practical at the moment, but more ideas still keep coming, the more I try and suppress them the more they demand to be brought to life. I need to be strong for now and not give in to them, but I think I will have to eventually.

Woman arrested after girl, 9, ate crack cocaine
Kimberly Losurdo tells deputies child thought it was candy
A north Florida woman is facing child abuse charges after deputies said a 9-year-old girl in her care ate a piece of crack cocaine.
Hernando County Fire Rescue officials were called to the home of Kimberly Losurdo after the child began having convulsions.
MUGSHOTS: Have You Seen Death Row's Female Faces?
The child was taken to a hospital where blood tests revealed crack cocaine in the bloodstream.
Losurdo, 45, told deputies the child probably thought the crack was candy.
The girl is now in the custody of DCF.
A check of the Hernando County Sheriff's website showed that this latest incident is Losurdo's fifth arrest in two years.

Along with the red telephone box, one of the most iconic images of England is the red post box, or more correctly the pillar box (but then I am not an expert on these things).
Whilst red is the traditional colour (like the one above at Sayers Common, West Sussex) they do come in a range of shapes, sizes and colours. Whilst I am not an expert, they do interest me, especially when I think what might have passed through the little rectangular slot over the years.
The British Postal Museum and Archive blog today included a fascinating post by Assistant Curator Julian Stray which describes the restoration process of an unusual blue pillar box, which was designed specifically for posting airmail in the 1930s.
It is really fascinating to watch the restoration process through a series of photos, through to the photo of the finished article on display at the Guildhall Art Gallery in London. The post describes the amount of thought and effort that went into restoring and conserving this pillar box, from matching the paint colour to locating the correct collection plate (displaying the collection times) to go on the front of the box.
It is a truly wonderful example of the hard work and consideration that goes on behind the scenes in museums around the country and around the globe. I really must try and get to the next open day at the British Postal Museum Store.

Genealogy Saturday was a success.
First I spent some time on the FamilySearch Record Search site, looking at the Diocese of Durham Bishops' Transcripts. I had searched here before (in the parish of Staindrop, Durham) for the siblings of Isabella GRAHAM, my 3x great-grandmother, but I had never finished it off.
Some of the baptism entries were quite detailed so I was able to establish that Isabella's father Joseph was from Hexham, Northumberland. So now I have added another new county to my list of places.
After Durham and Northumberland I headed back down south, to Gloucestershire and the BATEMAN and JACKSON families. I wasn't so lucky here, despite some records on the IGI the dates and places I was after weren't available.
Next I moved back closer to home and the area around Singleton, Sussex. I have more ancestor from these parts than I first believed. Here I added many events for the BOXALL, RICHARDS, PITT, TARGETT and CHANDLER families.
I have identified a potential problem with Thomas PITT, my 4x great-grandfather. I know he married Ann BONE in Stoughton, Sussex in 1798, and he appears to have died before the 1841 census.
Fortunately it is not that common a name, so I should, with a little bit of searching, be able to find a burial record and hopefully an age at burial. This should enable me to work out a birth year, and I can carry on backwards from there.
All in all I added forty new individuals to my database, several of them 5x great-grandparents, and many new events. Also I finished off sorting the George Thomas GASSON stuff in my stuff to sort folder, which was really pleasing.

Josh has been making threads for a lot of games with quotes from opponents fans in forums and direct quotes from broadcasters etc... so I'm going to sticky this so we can keep the same thread going. Post any comments from people/fans regarding our team during or after games!
Good work Josh.
Sounds like a plan.....cant wait for tomorrow night.
Ummmmmmm, The NETS have a followers and supporters right LOL
It may make to be a slow uneventful evening
Nets won't have Deron Williams. If we lose to them.. may as well kiss our season goodbye LOL. We can't let Travis Outlaw drop 27 or w/e on us again.
we cant let morrow, vujacic or outlaw torch us from downtown. we also need to box out and not allow second chances to lopez and humphries.
Yup. I almost forgot Humphries shut Blake down more than any other player this season including Chuck Hayes. Blake had like 2 points, 0 rebounds in the first half vs NJ and Humphries had like 10 and 10 by half. He thoroughly dominated Blake.
"Ugly first quarter. Nobody can make a shot with the exception of Lopez. The Clippers are too big and too strong for us. Starting Vujacic at 3 and letting Outlaw guard Kaman proves it."

It's OFFICIAL, The Nets do not have any fans

These were just some of the funny ones I saw. There was plenty, my favorite was when they are asking each other to stop saying David Flee is better than Blake. That one is classic, they have a few arguing why they should want Houston over us in the playoffs too.
Do you think we are the most hated team in the league? We must be the best team in the league juding by the hate we garner. Man those fans from other teams must share notes because they all wah wah wah about the same crap and most of their whining is really what their teams do but it's fine when they do it.
When did fans turn into such crybabies?
I brought my friend from the bay area,a GS fan,to the game and he looked at me when Curry did that and goes "well, there is the first flop in this game"
I think there are certain teams that have fans that hate us and our team, but I don't think it's everyone. I think it's mostly teams that wish they could ascend as quickly as we have. I find it entertaining at the very least. I actually like players from some of these teams and will give props where props are due but it if they attack our team I have no problem going right back.
I think teams with good to great power forwards always seem to have the chip on their shoulder that their power forward has. I think with Golden State it is multiplied because they are like poor man copies, David Lee dreams about being Blake and Curry dreams about being CP3. Bogut probably wishes he was DJ, at the very least I'm sure he was wishing he could rebound and be as healthy as him not to mention shoot free throws like him too.
lol, david flee. never heard of that. I've always called him D.League
I love this thread.
My buddy was telling me one that goes something like: How do you spell David without any d's? Easy just add Lee to the end of it. I know it's cheesy but it's still true.
He had a bunch of Steph Curry and Bogut ones that revolve around their injuries, but I can't remember them. He's a Nuggets fan or else he'd probably join us here. He doesn't seem to have as much hate for the Clippers, he does have a lot of hate for the Jazz, Golden State and Dallas for some reason.

The Keep is the new historical resource centre for East Sussex and Brighton & Hove which is currently under construction in Falmer, East Sussex.
The construction seems to be progressing at a rapid pace and you can see the latest status of the development on a dedicated photostream on flickr.
Admitedly it doesn't look much like a record office at the moment, that is not surprising as there is still another year to go before it opens for business, but it is great to see progress being made.
I like that the building work is being recorded (and being made available) so that we can watch this building site transform into an archive before our eyes.

A few days ago I wrote that I had to go to Chichester library to look at microfilm of a local newspaper, the West Sussex Gazette. When I first started researching (many years ago) I expected to find copies of local newspapers, whether original or on microfilm, at the county record offices, but I soon discovered this wasn't the case.
The situation with regard to finding local newspapers in Sussex is perhaps a little confusing. Whilst the county record offices do have some holdings, the only real consolidated collection of local newspapers for Sussex is held at the British Library Newspaper Library in London.
What we find in West Sussex however are copies (usually microfilm) scattered across various public libraries in the county, usually in the library most relevant to the original coverage of the newspaper in question.
Fortunately the West Sussex County Council (WSCC) have published a finding aid to West Sussex newspapers as part of their 'Mini-Guides' series. It used to be available in print only, presumably it is now out of print, because it is now available for free download as a pdf from the WSCC website.
So an example, if I want to look at a particular edition of the Mid-Sussex Times I have the choice of going to the British Library Newspaper Library in London or the small (in comparison) public library in Burgess Hill, West Sussex.
Not only is it usually easier and cheaper for me to visit the small public library, but it is also a great opportunity to check out their local studies collection, which may hold material that is not to be found elsewhere.
Of course the usual caveat applies, this edition of the guide is now six years old, so check availability, opening hours and booking requirements with the library itself, contact details are on the WSCC website.

Recently I have been sharing postcards of Beachy Head, near Eastbourne, East Sussex on my blog. Yesterday I mentioned that people have been visiting Beachy Head for decades, and one of those people was my 2x great-uncle Percy Ebenezer TROWER.
In one of his diaries he records an excursion on the 30th June 1928, presumably by coach or bus, from Brighton (B'ton) with his future wife Kate (K). They were married five years later in 1933.
Sunday July 1/28
Yesterday K & I went to B'ton by the 1.33 bus & then took a trip to Eastbourne 2.50 till about 6. A fine day but very windy. We went to Beachy Head & thence to Eastbourne & home through Lewes. The journey through Newhaven I preferred where we are nearly always within sight of the sea. These & similar facts are written for perusal many years hence when scenes have changed. This is a record of a pleasant afternoon that my love & I spent when she was 18 & I 30. I may in years to come live again our ride by the sea on that windy day in June when K was still a girl in her youth & freshness.
Beachy Head, 'twas 10 years, ten years since I last saw you, – in 1918 – during my sojourn at Summerdown Camp. Many faces, many happenings come again to memory, memories of ten years ago, memories of unsettled years, memories of days gone for ever. They were [unreadable] sad days but many happy memories remain. How well I remember my scottish companions of my marquee, & their scottish accents.
But I must get to bed & sleep.
Summerdown Camp was the army convalescent hospital on the outskirts of Eastbourne where Percy spent a month recovering from a gun shot wound received during the First World War, but that is another story (and another collection of postcards).
The route from Brighton and Eastbourne is one of my favourite bus journeys. There is a regular bus service that stills runs "nearly always within sight of the sea", offering some spectacular views of the coastline and countryside alike from the top of a double decker bus. There is a slightly different service at weekends, that actually takes you right up to Beachy Head if you don't fancy the walk. Details are available from Brighton and Hove Buses website (services 12 and 13X).

This view was taken by me on the 21st June 2010, the row of cliffs in the distance are the Seven Sisters and the path leads down from Seaford Head to Hope Gap, where a set of steps allow access to the shoreline.
This photo has been my desktop wallpaper since the day it was taken, but I think it is probably time I changed it now. Summer has well and truly passed and it is probably time to find something more seasonal (and I don't mean dancing snowmen and bouncing Christmas puddings) to act as my wallpaper.
This picture embodies so many happy memories for me. Although this wasn't part of my South Downs Way walk, it is part of the South Downs and the South Downs Way does run across the top of the Seven Sisters. My enduring memories of 2010 will be of my time spent walking the South Downs, making the most of my unemployment.
The walk on 21st June was quite a short walk, probably only four or five miles in distance and only a few hours in the afternoon. The weather started out quite dull, but the sun came out as I started to climb up hill away from the town of Seaford, East Sussex and it was absolutely stunning to see the white chalk cliffs shining brilliantly in the sunshine.
I spent probably an hour or so at the foot of the cliffs, picking my way among the rock pools, searching for unusual stones and looking up in awe at the towering cliffs. It was really interesting to see the cliffs up close (although not getting too close), it was like seeing a cross-section through the hills that I had spent so much time walking upon.

For anyone with ancestors who were farmers or agricultural labourers in Sussex this book makes fascinating reading, and provides a valuable insight into almost every aspect of farm life at the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth century.
A General view of the agriculture of the county of Sussex is available on Google Books, but I have also seen a relatively recent reprint in second-hand bookshops. It was published in 1808 and written by the Rev. Arthur Young for The Board of Agriculture and Internal Improvement.
The book occasionally mentions individual farms or farmers and it is not really a how-to book, but more a general survey of virtually all aspects of farming. An idea of the topics covered can be seen from the list of chapters.
- Geographical state and circumstances
- State of property
- Buildings
- Mode of occupation
- Implements
- Enclosing, fences, gates
- Arable land
- Grass lands
- Orchards
- Woods and plantations
- Wastes
- Improvements
- Live stock
- Rural economy
- Political economy
- Obstacles to improvement
- Miscellaneous observations
It is fascinating to just dig into sections at random and get an insight into farming life, and there are many unexpected and unusual descriptions such as the section below on opium, which comes under the heading of crops not commonly cultivated:
The largest quantity of this invaluable drug that was ever cured in this country, was raised in 1797 from the Earl of Egremont's garden at Petworth; and the fact now indeed thoroughly ascertained, that all the foreign opium is highly adulterated, renders it an object of immense consequence to encourage the domestic growth. Mr. Andre is convinced, that in all his practice, he never made use of any of this drug that could be compared with this. The operation of collecting the produce, is effected by a gentle incision on the heads, as they grow, with a knife or other sharp instrument, which is frequently repeated; and the juices which exude from the wound, are scraped into an earthern vessel, dried by the sun, and preserved for use.
I know that farmers are have been encouraged to diversify, but I suspect this might be frowned upon slightly these days. Less controversial, but nonetheless interesting is the description of how lime was obtained for use 'manuring' the fields in the eastern part of the county:
As the chalk-hills extend no further than Eastbourne, in order therefore to supply the rest of the county, the chalk is shipped in sloops from Holywell pits at Beachy-head, from whence it is carried to the Bexhill, Hastings, and Rye kilns: here it is burnt into lime, where the farmers come with their teams and take it away at 6d. per bushel. In this trade 16 sloops are considerably employed from April to the month of November. Nine of these belong to Hastings, and seven to the port of Rye. The total quantity consumed at these kilns, for one year, amounts nearly to 633 sloop-loads of chalk, each containing 550 bushels, or about 350,000 bushels.
These are just two examples of the contents of this book, there is quite a large number of tables of figures, and a few illustrations, although many appear to have folded out and they have not been reproduced in the Google Books version, still it is well worth reading if you have an interest in the history of agriculture.

Here they box up the orders which go around a crazy conveyor belt system. The headquarters only ships out to sellers, not to individuals, so it was a super interesting behind-the-scenes look at their process. I had the deep and sudden urge to sit atop a box to see where it would go but I held back because I was wearing a dress and I'm a lady.
Next, he showed us around the office and ended up at the design studio for their in-house designers. Brace yourselves, baby, and take in one of the first things I spotted...
Alexander McQueens! Sitting nonchalantly on the windowsill! *jaw drop* I touched them and the leather was SO soft and the gold studs and skull zippers.... Did I mention they have an entire wall of high end designer shoes? Oh my. :D
There was eye candy everywhere we looked! Fur, glitter, sequins, satin and lace, hats, racks and racks of costumes....
Catalogs of all of their past work year after year...
Hand-rendering markers in all the colors of the rainbow and everything in between! :D :D :D What I wouldn't have given to have resources like this while in design school!
Here are a few of the designers hard at work. Sooo much visual energy to take in.
One girl's amazing monitor. OMG right? I want one of those plushy monitor covers so bad! Where can you even get stuff like that?! I've never seen anything like it before. =^__^=
I also got to pick out a few costumes for my upcoming Halloween tutorials this year and mentioned which ones I chose to the designers. When I brought up that a couple only came in size S/M, this kind designer knew it would be way huge on me and started taking a few measurements.
She then had me put on the actual costume and pinned it to fit. By this point I was so speechless! She was soooo generous and kind enough to offer to alter it to custom fit me. My face was like D: and very thankful.
Thank you SO MUCH to Daniel and the whole Leg Avenue team for letting me experience this amazing space with you! I absolutely cannot wait for the holidays this year to share with everyone the fruits of your love and hard work. <3
I hope you guys enjoyed coming along with me on my behind-the-scenes look at a really fun company. ^_^ I know I had a blast and I will never forget it! To browse Leg Avenue costumes, you can visit their site here or visit their Facebook page. I know they plan on doing costume how-tos (like how to properly fluff your fox tail...hehe) so it may be a good idea to check in again before Halloween.
Readers, have any of you worn any Leg Avenue costumes before? Let me know what you've tried in the comments!

You could use my circuit to create your own custom LED lamp. You could make a beautiful LED desk lamp out of wood. My father was a skilled furniture maker, who went into electronics when his employer moved to an assembly-line manufacturing style. When he got engaged to my mother, he had no money for a diamond engagement ring, so he made her a small, but very beautiful wooden table lamp. That lamp was far more precious to her than any diamond ring could have been. One of my sisters has the lamp now.
The original 9-watt fluorescent tube in the lamp costs about $5 and lasts about a year with heavy use. I spent $21 on the LEDs I installed in the lamp and they should last for many years of heavy use. The remaining parts cost about $10, not including the lamp itself. The 72 LEDs produce plenty of light for reading. The lamp does not light up the whole room like the fluorescent version did, but it brilliantly illuminates whatever it's aimed at. At its focal-point it's a lot brighter than the 14-watt fluorescent lamp (with a new tube in it) that I had been using for reading. The color is better, too. Now, I'll just use my fluorescent lamps for area lighting.
My new LED desk lamp is just what I need. I set it on a table beside my easy-chair. It produces a natural white light, like daylight. The light from the LED array is very focused, like a big flashlight. BTW, you should use LEDs with a viewing angle of 30 degrees or wider. The dimmer greatly enhances the lamp's utility. I can turn the brightness up for easy reading, or I can dim it down to the point where it perfectly illuminates my laptop keyboard, without the hassles of my USB light. Turned all the way down, the lamp produces enough light to illuminate my TV remote while not affecting the view of my TV. I also use it as a nightlight. I also use the lamp as a work light, because it can be folded or rotated to illuminate my work surface, without being in my way. The lamp is very portable and is much lighter than it was, having lost its heavy ballast coil and glass tube.

It was another good week, although most of what I did wasn't really what I had intended, but it was interesting and varied, which certainly helps keep me motivated.
Challenging times: Sorting out Patrick Vaughan's information
I have to confess that I didn't get very far with sorting out all the stuff that I have on Patrick Vaughan. I did make a start, but was almost immediately distracted by another part of the Finding Minnie story that needed sorting out.
One day I will get around to telling the story of these relations of Minnie Allison and answering the question Who Was Daisy Denyer? The information I has bundled up with that of Patrick Vaughan, so it made sense to get that sorted out at the same time.
There were two reason why I chose to start with this information, first I didn't think it would take too long and secondly it was all English so I wouldn't have any problem entering and sourcing the information, whereas Patrick's was Irish, Scottish and Canadian and that would take some time to work out my source citation.
Thomas Acock of Malvern, Worcestershire, England
I decided that I would also like to clear a couple of items from my to-do list as well this week. Both of these items involved Thomas Acock who married my 4x great-aunt Anna Trower.
Anna was his third wife, so I wanted to include some details from these previous marriages in my database and I wanted to expand on the information that I had on their descendants.
I was able to delete these two entries from my to-do list although I really need to add a new one that will remind my to keep a look out for the parish registers for Malvern so that I can verify the work that I have done.
Upgrading Family Historian
Version 5 of Family Historian (my genealogy software of choice) has been out several weeks and this week I finally got around to paying for and downloading the update.
As expected everything went smoothly and I think the only thing I had change was the default project on opening, all my other settings were exactly the same.
This is just the sort of upgrading I like, whilst the core of the program looks and behaves the same as before there are several new features that are waiting to be explored. I had a quick play with the new fan charts and can see I am going to be having some fun with them in the future.
British Newspaper Archive
Part of the reason I didn't get very far sorting out the Patrick Vaughan stuff was because I decided to take the plunge and buy a few credits for the British Newspaper Archive.
It has taken some getting used to and some of the image quality is dreadful, but there are more stories of interest than I had first imagined, but finding them has proved a big challenge requiring some careful searching. Capturing the information proved to be a bigger challenge in many cases, and my Print Screen button has not seen such use for many a year.
I still have a few credits left and a few hours to use them, so I will make the most of them to try to uncover more of what my relatives got up to.
Future Challenges
There is no question, no excuses, next week I must carry on sorting out the Patrick Vaughan information. I know that with the searching of the British Newspaper Archive I have gathered even more information to be sorted, but I will try to put that to one side for now and work on Patrick.

http://www.nba.com/video/channels/nba_t ... iffin.nba/
found this video kinda interesting. I saw a couple of plays by griffin that I hadn't seen bofore, due to the games not showing on TV
hahaha it's funny how he says damn cus he missed his turn on the tape up table.
yeah I know, I was laughing at that too
This is the FSN special about Blake Griffin. This originally aired on Wednesday ( Nov. 3rd).
If you haven't watched it, you're missing out.
Joe.. We already made a thread trying to find the video online and we couldn't. It's not on your link.
Ok Joe i'm wrong! They have the full videos now! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Before it was only 36 second previews like 2-3 days ago.
that link don't work. at least not on my computer.
Go the main website.. go to Clippers section man.
haha he really shouldnt be using a camera and drivin at the same time in l.a. traffic. dont want any unnecessary injuries. good video though.
i watched it last night after the game. i like him even more
LOL clipper great brent barry auto tune rap http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Video-Brent-Bar ry-auto-tunes-his-love-of-Blake-?urn=nba-301555
G32, this doesn't belong in the new members intro. Please put any videos in the multimedia section. Thanks!
i heard it before already
Must watch video right here. It's like a couples game show. Hahaha...
http://www.foxsportswest.com/pages/vide ... 4QIWgg1wns
It would be nice if their friendship kept them together and on the Clippers. Most athletic front court in the league, and both are very good representatives for the team.
BFFL haha funny
Saw that last night during the pregame. Pretty funny. . . and a little scary. I don't think I know any other dude that well. But then again, I don't think I've probably spent as much time around anyone except my brothers as DJ and Blake probably have. NBA road trips, etc. will do that.
I love seeing these two together. They always make me laugh.
That's kinda freaky that they both don't like tomatoes...just a natural coincidence I guess.
"Gordon likes his privacy" I died at that part
Hahah that's pretty cool- nice to see these guys are such great friends like that!
this is pretty awesome
Just two young guys havin' fun. Let's hope it stays that way for the Clippers for a long time, we've got arguably the most athletic C/PF combo around. Wait, is that true? Most athletic C/PF combos... Horford and JSmooth? Noah/Boozer? DHoward/Bass? Ibaka/Green? Nene/KMart? I don't know, the competition is tough, especially Atlanta's duo, but I like our guys.
wow! these guys are not only great on the basketball court.
Its great watching these two go on some of the shots this season you can see them flying toward the rim on opposite sides to get the o rebound
I loved this one, but missed deandre's gordon limbaugh, griffin-gordon allstar campaign vid, and its been removed from foxsports and youtube. anyone know where i can still see it?
Im calling bs on that made J
lol i second that bs
If anyone hasn't seen this, pretty dope video from the Red Bull wings campaign, shot in Watts California, this dude I know named Efren is the cat wearing the Away Clippers Jersey in the 3:44 mark of the video he's a season ticket holder I met through some mutual friends.
why the hell is Darrell there?! that Annoys me.....
^ He sticks his mug everywhere,,he is even on the blowoff video on the big screen at Staples,, like he is the only Clipper fan that is ever there. What a load
OH MAN! That's my park! I play there every Tuesday night! I was wondering why there were new break-away rims there. I'm glad they fixed the other side of the court too, that thing was hanging half way down. I'm surprised this was held there, that park can get pretty dangerous. Someone was shot there 2 weeks ago unfortunately.
Parts 1-3...
Thanks for posting that, it was amusing.
CP to Blake was a much better combo than Blake to CP. A bit like in a fast break
^ No problem glad you enjoyed it!
Caron does this to shoot.
Pump fake
so cool good assist from cp3, make bg32 to pick up the right answer.
Even in this little game you can see CP3 's competitiveness.
So good!
Even Blake felt like clapping.
Nice! What happened to Joe's mix though?
We have Blake's Top 100 Dunks in this thread?
#61-40: http://www.nba.com/clippers/video/2014/03/05/Top100Part3LACTVmov-31827 40
Despite how awesome blake's dunk are i just don't feel excited about it...It was his post up plays that gets me so thrilled it, because through it you could actually see his evolution as a inside scoring machine
huge Dunk against LA Lakers: http://www.nba.com/clippers/video/2014/03/06/BLAKEOOPLACTVmov-3184694
This Is The Blake I Have Seen A Lot Of This Season
All around player for Blake.
I was at this game and the crazy thing is that he was so raw back then and still dropped 47 points on ONLY 1 dunk. Blake is a Boss. Best PF in the game.
i remember this game showed so much of what blake had in him.
who would have thought collison and granger would be on this team?
Blake for MVP!
Neither LeBron or The Servant seem to want it, so why not give it to Blake?
It would take a big final push from Blake for the voters to open their eyes. Most of the media thinks the race is only a two man race right now.
If Blake averages 30/11/4 for the rest of the season and we end up with a 1 or 2 seed, he should get it.

The reason I visited the London Family History Centre yesterday (other than to use up the last of my holiday entitlement before the end of the month) was to do some basic investigations into the NICHOLLS and DRAPPER families from Kent.
There were only two films that I wanted to look at, the parish registers for Blean and Chiddingstone both in Kent. Technically speaking the film for Blean was of the Bishop's Transcripts and not the actual registers, but at this stage it is not really that important. I am still finding my way in these families, trying to get a feel for what I am dealing with and hoping to find some further proof that I have the correct families.
In Chiddingstone I had expected to find the marriage of Thomas NICHOLLS and Martha DRAPPER (my 4x great-grandparents), Martha's baptism record (and those of her siblings) and possibly the marriage of her parents. In Blean I was hoping to find a baptism for Ellen NICHOLLS (my 3x great-grandmother) and a burial for Thomas NICHOLLS.
What I actually found was not quite as I had expected, but that is not to say that it was a bad thing. In Blean I found a baptism for Ellen, except it was Eleanor not Ellen, but everything else matched. There was a burial of a Thomas NICHOLLS, but he was an infant (clearly I am going to need to search again for his death).
The biggest surprise to me was to find the likely baptism for Thomas NICHOLLS and his siblings in Blean. I hadn't really considered why Thomas and Martha were in Blean, but it makes perfect sense that this was where Thomas came from. Likewise Chiddingstone was supposed to be the place where Martha came from.
I could find no trace of Martha's baptism in Chiddingstone, although some of her sibling's baptisms were there. There was no sign of her marriage to Thomas or of her parent's marriage, but I did find the marriage of one of her sisters that is particularly helpful. Jane DRAPPER married James BARNES in Chiddingstone on the 12th October 1841 and one of the witnesses was Thomas NICHOLLS, which further cements the family relationship.
So a few of the records I had hoped for didn't turn up, but I certainly didn't go away empty-handed or disappointed. It has helped clarify a few points and disproved a few others. It was no accident that Thomas and Martha were in Blean and the DRAPPER family may not have been so firmly rooted in Chiddingstone as I had first imagined.
The next step is obvious to me now, I had hoped to find the Thomas NICHOLLS and Martha DRAPPER and save the cost of ordering a certificate, but clearly I am going to need to do that now. That should confirm whether the baptism I found for Thomas in Blean is the correct one and also point to the likely place for Martha's baptism.
