So I tried downloading Sun's IDE (written in Sun's language) from Sun's website and installing it on Sun hardware running Sun's operating system with Sun's compilers. And it didn't work. Last night I was using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 on a new laptop (not mine). It did nothing to improve my opinion of IDEs, let's put it that way. The worst thing that these things hog is screen area. I'm a fan of Smalltalk, which gets the screen area bit right. It's pretty much the only IDE that I do like. But they said "oh, machines are faster bigger, so we can make pretty-print-as-you-type and colourising defaults" and pretty soon the 1GHz PowerMac I was using was crawling.

As for design errors, there are differences of degree. The inconsistencies in the dotted module names "feature" put it roughly on a level with C's switch() statement.

Mass. woman sues over spouse's Vt. triathlon deathThe Associated Press | July 26,2013SALEM, Mass. - The widow of a Massachusetts man who drowned during a triathlon in Vermont last year has filed a $1 million lawsuit against the event's organizers.
Lawyers for Richard Angelo's widow, Cheryl, say Colorado-based USA Triathlon should never have allowed the event to take place in an unusually choppy Lake Champlain, failed to properly train staff in emergency responses, didn't have enough staff on hand, and did not have adequate lifesaving equipment.
The suit filed Wednesday in Salem Superior Court seeks damages for wrongful death, pain and suffering, emotional distress on the part of his widow, and punitive damages.
The 53-year-old Beverly man died last Aug. 18.
A spokesman for USA Triathlon told The Salem News the organization had not yet seen the suit and could not comment on it.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER After sitting on the Vermont Supreme Court for nearly 30 years, Justice John Dooley...

Meadville's Allegheny College to honor Sens. Feinstein and Graham
Rarely have Sen. Dianne Feinstein or Sen. Lindsey Graham been accused of shying away from a political battle.
In fact, Feinstein, a California Democrat, and Graham, a South Carolina Republican, are often in the thick of the partisan charge. You'll catch them on the Sunday morning shows and hear them taking leaders of the other party to task.
But in the view of Allegheny College in Meadville, both manage to disagree without being disagreeable. That's why Feinstein and Graham were chosen as the recipients of the second annual Allegheny College Prize for Civility in Public Life.
Allegheny College President James H. Mullen Jr. plans to be at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., to present the two senators with the award at 10 a.m. today.
What did Allegheny see in Feinstein and Graham?
"Senators Feinstein and Graham are proud partisans who battle vigorously on the most contentious issues of the day," Mullen said in a statement. "They fight the hard fights, take on the big issues and strive mightily to win. But they do not seek to win at all costs. They each have long records, built over years, of doing battle with deep respect for the political process."
What's more, he said, both have shown a willingness to agree with their political adversaries on particular issues.
The college, which has an enrollment of about 2,100 students, presented the award for the first time in 2012, honoring political journalists David Brooks and Mark Shields.
The award was designed to recognize two political figures, one liberal and one conservative, who argue passionately for their beliefs.
Mullen, who met with Feinstein and Graham in advance of today's presentation, said the reward isn't presented to political figures who surrender their beliefs at the door.
"What we don't need are shrinking violets," Mullen said in an interview Monday. "We believe we have selected two very appropriate winners who bring a passion to their point of view, but have done so in a way that is respectful."
Mullen said that as one of the nation's oldest colleges, he thinks Allegheny has a special responsibility to encourage public service.
"We are a college that is almost 200 years old," Mullen said. "We have traced the arc of American history. We are a place where they have debated some of the most important issues of American history."
Those debates should and will continue, Mullen said.

SUNY Upstate's Lyn Stevens wins AIDS care nursing honor
Lyn Stevens, a nurse practitioner at SUNY Upstate Medical University, has received the Association of Nurses in AIDS Care (ANAC) President's Award.

MTV (Tues., May 8, 8 p.m. ET)
Let hipper critics judge the rhymes in this rap revision of Georges Bizet's 1875 opera ("So soothing and calming/ She's the furthest thing from common" sounds a little off to these tired ears). I will venture to say that Beyoncé Knowles of Destiny's Child is plenty hot as the seductive title character, while Mekhi Phifer (A Lesson Before Dying) conveys the conflicting feelings of the cop she brings to ruin. And a sly Mos Def nearly steals the show as a law officer without an ethical bone in his body. The film fails to attain an operatic level of emotion, and director Robert Townsend starts recycling his Hollywood Shuffle material when Carmen tries to launch an acting career. But this is an interesting experiment.
Bottom Line: Worth a try

'The Nightingale of Mosul: A Nurse's Journey of Service, Struggle, and War'
By Susan Luz
As a colonel, the highest-ranking female in my unit, the 399th Combat Support Hospital, I would not carry a rifle even in Iraq, like the rest of my unit would, and I would not be in charge of a battalion or a regiment, like a colonel would typically be. I would be there to draw on my work as a public health nurse. When I'm not with the Army Reserve, I work with troubled adolescents at a psychiatric facility.
My unit's job in Iraq was to be the frontline station for troops in the field. When soldiers (and sometimes, unfortunately, civilians) are hit, field medics patch them up as well as possible, then rush the wounded to us via helicopter and Humvee. We are the hospital nearest the battle, a modern-day Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (M*A*S*H) unit. We are the Sherman T. Potters, Margaret Houlihans, and Hawkeye Pierces of the Iraq War.
My specific job within the 399th was to make sure everyone stayed healthy. It was as simple and as complex as that. Taking care of the physical side of things is sometimes the easiest. I was expected to spend a lot of my time in Iraq holding seminars. Soldiers—or anyone else away from home for a time, for that matter—can be notorious for not taking care of themselves, so my job was to make sure they were educated in all sorts of good, healthy-living practices. If they had high blood pressure, I wanted them to knock off the salt. If they smoked, I wanted them to quit. If they were fooling around, I wanted them to protect themselves against sexually transmitted diseases.
But humans are more than physical beings, and as health care professionals, our real task is to care for the whole person. When it comes to mental health, stress is a huge part of a soldier's life as well. Take normal people and put them in abnormal situations, and all sorts of hazardous things can result. I hold an additional certification in combat stress management, so part of my job in Iraq was to help educate soldiers through the stresses of war. If people could, to some degree, process the craziness of what they were going through, it would lift their spirits, help them perform at an optimum level, and be in a better position to sort things out when they got home.
As reservists, we had already been through boot camp as well as monthly and annual training exercises for some time, but our training needed to be intensified to prime us for overseas duty. On June 8, 2006, my unit was activated and went to Hanscom for several days of briefings. Each night I was able to go home, which was an unusual and welcome surprise. Toward the end of the briefing period, a ceremony was held at the Boston Convention Center so that we could officially say good-bye to family and friends. The night after the ceremony, we were to be locked down in a hotel near the base, then flown to Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, the next morning, for three and a half months of extra training. There, the unit would be sharpened into a finely tuned instrument before we headed to Iraq. It's no simple task for the army to prepare 450 reservists to be immersed for a year in a combat zone.
A few thousand friends and family members filed into the convention center for the ceremony. From across the crowd, I spotted George. It had only been hours since we had last seen each other, but already my heart skipped a beat at the thought of being away from him for the next long while.
"I brought you some flowers," George said, dropping his r's, New England accent–style.
He handed me a dozen yellow roses and a small American flag. We kissed hello. George comes from a large Portuguese American family. His father, the late George Luz Sr., fought in World War II with Easy (E) Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, the company featured in Stephen Ambrose's 1992 book, Band of Brothers, which was made into an HBO miniseries produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg in 2001. My husband and I stay close to several of the E Company veterans and frequently attend reunions and special events that honor the men. In about a year, George was set to help lead a tour of European battle sites with E Company veterans Bill Guarnere, Babe Heffron, Frank Perconte, Buck Compton, Rod Bain, and Don Malarkey. As part of the tour, the men were scheduled to stop off at various military bases and hospitals in Germany to encourage the soldiers of Operation Iraqi Freedom. I knew it would be great to meet with those legendary men who had given our country so much, as well as the current soldiers who were following in their footsteps. I wished I could go.
More family and friends began to show up for the ceremony. Acting on the advice of the family readiness officer, someone who knew what she was doing, George began to reserve some seats for our group by putting pieces of paper on chairs. The seats saved, George gathered us together for a picture.
"Smile," he said as we put our arms around one another and hollered, "Chee-ee-eese."
Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was a lieutenant colonel. His face was flushed. "Hey, your husband can't do that," he said.
"What?" I said. "Take a picture?"
"No." The lieutenant colonel's eyebrows lowered as if we had committed the unpardonable sin. "Save seats. Against regulation." His voice stayed flat.
"Hey," I called with a smile, "we're trying to take a family picture over here." A lot of emotion floats around in a send-off ceremony — this is the last time you see any family for quite a while. Plus, there were lots of unsaved seats left in the room.
"You need to move these pieces of paper from the seats—now!" he said.
I felt my cheeks reddening. There's always one of these ferret-faced Frank Burns types in every crowd. I felt my Irish blood rising. Before I could open my mouth, the lieutenant colonel pointed to a small stuffed animal hanging out of my backpack and waved his finger in the air. The bear is named Shaggy and goes everywhere I go. George keeps a stuffed bear named Rosie, and whenever George and I are together, Shaggy and Rosie always sit on the same dresser. Whenever George and I are apart, Shaggy and Rosie remind us to count the days until we're together again.
"And that," the lieutenant colonel uttered and pointed again at Shaggy, "is against regulation." He accentuated the word like it was gospel truth. "You can't have that hanging out of your backpack."
I couldn't believe this guy. Here we were trying to win a war for freedom, and he wanted to question a stuffed animal. I shifted tactics and moved my shoulder so the lieutenant colonel could see my Eagle, the patch that signifies rank. A lieutenant colonel is one down in rank from a full-bird colonel.
"I don't think there'll be a problem here," I said. I smiled as sweetly as possible.
The lieutenant colonel folded his arms across his chest and shook his head. His final answer.
My smile faded into steel. Nobody pushes me around.
"You want me to pull rank?" I glowered up at him. "If you want me to act army, I'll act army. You know as well as I do that if a lieutenant colonel talks to a colonel like that, he's up for a court-martial. Your decision—what's it going to be?"
The lieutenant colonel huffed, pivoted on his foot, and marched off. In my book, that type of petty policy pushing has no place in a winning army. It felt good to win this small war before I got into the real thing.
Our unit's commander, Colonel Bryan Kelly, spoke at the ceremony, as did Charlie Fogarty, the lieutenant governor of Rhode Island. A minister pronounced a blessing. The ceremony wasn't long. Many of us had tears in our eyes as they played Lee Greenwood's song "God Bless the USA." I think the seriousness of what we were about to do hit us all in waves. For me, I suddenly didn't want to be alone. I wanted as many friends around me as possible. The Band of Brothers idea about needing comrades in arms is completely true. If you're faced with the possibility of shedding your own blood, you want your brothers—or sisters—with you in the fight.
The next morning, after our night in lockdown, we grabbed our gear and lined up to file onto the chartered flight to Fort McCoy. Gear stowed, I still carried the yellow roses that George had given me. Senior officers are always placed in first class. I took my seat next to the window. The spacious seat next to me was empty. This wasn't going to be much fun, flying alone. My good buddy Captain Michele Diamond, a real character, was seated near the back of the plane. Captain Diamond is blond, seven years younger than I, and likes to maintain the illusion of living in civilization by keeping her nails done and wearing mascara while on duty. Already tired of being alone, I wandered back through the curtain and found Captain Diamond.
"Hey, howya doing, Sue," she said. "Come on back and join the party."
In my mind flashed that scene from Band of Brothers where Lt. Buck Compton gets reprimanded as an officer for shooting craps with enlisted men because the two groups aren't supposed to mix socially. Captain Diamond wasn't an enlisted soldier, but it was clearly expected that I sit in first class with the other senior officers. Hunched next to Captain Diamond was a private, a big tall kid whose legs were already buckled underneath him. In a snap, I decided that this was his lucky day.
"Private," I said, "how would you like to swap seats with me? I'd like to sit next to my friend here."
"Ma'am, really, ma'am?" he gulped.
"Yeah," I said. "Up front in first class you can stretch out your long legs from here to Maine. Only one condition: you have to carry my flowers. There'll be an empty seat next to you—shouldn't be much of a problem."
His face broke into a huge grin. The private stood up, his head touching the ceiling. I'd estimate he was six feet, five inches tall.
One of the senior officers was checking something in the back of the plane and interrupted our plans: "Colonel—hey, that doesn't look good for us. You should be sitting in first class."
"What for?" I answered with a grin. "There's no booze allowed on this flight."
Everybody laughed. The senior officer shrugged. I guessed I had won over the backseat crowd. The private went forward. I sat down next to Captain Diamond.
About three hours later, we landed at Fort McCoy's sprawling grounds and were sent to the barracks where we'd be living for the next three months. Our quarters were old World War II–era barracks, pretty Spartan even for the military. As a base, Fort McCoy can be a pretty desolate place with its white-brick buildings, gray Wisconsin skies, and heavy surrounding woods. I was assigned to a room on the second floor.
A colonel is supposed to be in a room by herself, but suddenly I found again that I didn't want to leave my friends. I nosed around and discovered a room with three beds, one still vacant, and figured out a way to switch to that room. Things still weren't quite right: the joint needed a bit of sprucing up. I dug around for a pair of scissors, cut up the roses George had given me, and walked from room to room, scattering rose petals on each pillow. Captain Diamond came with me and placed some mints on the pillows, too. A group of young women noticed what we were doing and asked why.
"Listen," I said, "I love the Ritz-Carlton. Whenever I'm there, they always put rose petals on my bed. I figured we could do the same here." Everybody laughed.
I'm glad we had a good laugh that first night. We knew those rose petals and mints would be the last bit of civilization we'd encounter for some time. The next three months at Fort McCoy would be some of the toughest training we'd ever do before flying to the heart of the battle in Iraq.

Recipe: Vegetarian Lasagna with a Surprise Ingredient
The stealth ingredient here is tofu. Now before you get all riled up about how much you dislike tofu and that its inclusion in the recipe is a blasphemy on tradition, I want you to hear me out. Tofu is very good at adapting to the other flavors around it, and its texture when smashed into cheeses is firming. No one but you would actually know that there's tofu in this dish, unless you care to tell them. In this preparation, the mozzarella, ricotta and tofu mixture homogenize to become the most rapturous filling I've ever met in any lasagna. The tofu stabilizes the cheese and adds heft and shape (the pieces stay tall instead of oozing their cheesiness all over the plate). Not to mention, it sneaks in a sliver of zero-cholesterol protein, not that you are all that concerned with these sorts of things when you're sitting down to a plate of comfort food.
This recipe also calls for a jar of tomato sauce. While I'm all for making homemade sauce, occasionally I'll just use a jar I keep in the pantry to make life easier. If you want to go the distance and make your own sauce, by all means, this would be a lovely opportunity to use it but if you're in a jam, here are some recommendations for store-bought from Bon Appetíit.
Vegetarian Lasagna serves 6-8 1 lb no-boil lasagna noodles 5 cups (usually 1 1/2 jars) of tomato sauce (I like Whole Foods 365 Brand, no added sugars or preservatives) 1 15-ounce package of extra firm tofu 1 cup ricotta cheese 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese 3/4 cups shredded Parmesan cheese 1 15-ounce can jarred roasted peppers (or roast 2 red peppers yourself) 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg salt and pepper to taste In a medium-sized bowl, mix the tofu, ricotta and mozzarella cheese with your hands. Squeeze it to get the mixture even and smooth. Add the smoked paprika and salt and pepper to this cheese/tofu mixture. This may take a few minutes and your hands are the best tool in the kitchen for breaking down the tofu and getting it to evenly incorporate with the cheeses. Preheat oven to 400
. Using a 9 x 13" casserole pan, place about 1 cup of the sauce in the bottom of the pan, smoothing it into a thin layer with the back of a spoon. Layer about 6 noodles onto the bottom of the pan, covering the sauce as best you can. Layer on 1/3 of the jarred peppers. Place 1/3 of the tofu/ricotta mixture onto this bottom pasta/pepper layer, spread it out with your fingers, don't worry if it's not perfectly even (it will melt and become one with the pasta noodles).
Lastly, pour about 1 cup of the tomato sauce onto the cheese mixture, spreading the sauce as evenly as possible (don't stress this too much, as I said before it will all melt to become one yummy slice!). Repeat this process three times, ending with a pasta top. To this final pasta layer, add more sauce and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese all over the top.
Cover in foil and bake for about 45 minutes. Remove foil and broil on high for 3-5 minutes more. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

|Ray Allen to partcipate in 3-point contest
|02.05.11 at 4:28 pm ET
Ray Allen told reporters Friday night that he had agreed to take part in the 3-point contest as part of All-Star weekend. The other competitors have not been named yet, but it is assumed that one of them will be defending champ Paul Pierce.
The captain made a plea on Twitter to face off against Allen this year, which would add a little spice to a competition generally thought of as the appetizer to the Slam Dunk contest.
Allen won the title back in 2001 and has made five appearances over the years, but not since 2006. He's also closing in on the all-time 3-point mark, needing just five to pass Reggie Miller for the most made 3's in NBA history. Allen has embraced the chase and said that he hopes to do it at the Garden.
"Actually, I truly am enjoying it," he said Friday night. "This is a moment I've never experienced before. I don't know how many people can experience this type of moment."
|Irish Coffee: Celtics' Top 10 NBA All-Star performances
|02.04.11 at 1:14 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
In honor of four Celtics — Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen — all making the NBA All-Star Game, I give you the top-five NBA All-Star Weekend performances by the current Celtics …
5. PAUL PIERCE sunk all five money balls in the final round of the 2010 NBA 3-Point Shootout. Neither Stephen Curry or Chauncy Billups could match Pierce, and the Celtics captain took home the title.
4. SHAQUILLE O'NEAL (as a member of the Lakers) recorded 24 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks to lead the West to a 136-132 win over the East and capture 2004 NBA All-Star Game MVP honors. Also the 2000 and 2009 All-Star Game MVP, O'Neal announced in his postgame interview, "Can you dig it?"
3. RAY ALLEN (as a member of the Bucks) outdueled Peja Stojakovic for the 2001 NBA 3-Point Shootout championship. Entering the final rack, Allen needed to make 3-of-5 to tie. He made four.
2. NATE ROBINSON (as a member of the Knicks) won his second of a record three NBA Slam Dunk contests in 2009, defeating Dwight Howard by leaping over the 6-foot-11 Magic center in the finals.
1. KEVIN GARNETT (as a member of the Timberwolves) outperformed Michael Jordan in the Bulls legend's final NBA All-Star Game in 2003. Amassing the most points in an All-Star contest since Jordan's 40 in 1988, Garnett totaled 37 points, nine rebounds, five steals and three assists to lead the West to a 155-145 double-overtime victory against the East, capturing MVP honors in the process.
"The All-Star Game is not about individual," said Garnett. "It's totally a group effort. It's a time for you to share stories, good times, emotional times with your teammates."
Given the Celtics' storied history in NBA All-Star Games ever since Ed Macauley captured MVP honors with 20 points and six rebounds in the league's first-ever All-Star competition, I'd be remiss if I didn't also provide the top-five All-Star Weekend performances by former Celtics …
|Doc Rivers plan for his four All-Stars
|at 12:19 am ET
Before the announcement that the Celtics would have four All-Stars was made official, Doc Rivers joked that he would play the four of them together with whatever player was closest to free agency, "Just so they could see how it feels." So, get ready Dwight Howard to run with Rajon Rondo, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett.
For only the ninth time in NBA history, one team will have four representatives in the All-Star Game. Not surprisingly, the Celtics have done it more than any other teams (four), but to underscore how rare an achievement it actually is, no Celtics team has done it since 1975 when Paul Silas, JoJo White, John Havlicek and Dave Cowens all went together.
"I think it says that the coaches in the league recognize team basketball," Rivers said.
The team aspect is what has come to define the 2010-11 Celtics. Pierce, Allen and Garnett each average between 11-13 shots per game and 15-19 points. That no one player dominates the scoring is what makes them so successful. An opposing team can try to take one of them out of the equation, but that just opens the door for one of the others.
The Celtics shoot the highest percentage in the league and have the third most assists. Those two things are not a coincidence. Without Rondo to operate the machine they often sputter. Rondo may not be the "best point guard in the NBA," but he may be the one who can run the Celtics better than anyone else.
If one of them is out, it alters the chemistry just enough to make the Celtics slightly less menacing. "That's what makes it so difficult," Rivers said when asked which one was the hardest to replace. "Any one guy that's out, it hurts our team. We're so together as a group. There's not one guy ' one guy out affects the entire team."
The Celtics are where they are with the best record in the Eastern Conference because they have learned how to adjust with one of them is injured. But their championship credentials rely on having them all together.
|Four Celtics headed for All-Star Game
|02.03.11 at 7:13 pm ET
Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo were all named to the 2011 NBA All-Star Game on Thursday night, joining head coach Doc Rivers on the Eastern Conference team. It's the ninth time in NBA history that four teammates have been named to one squad, and the first since 2006 when the Pistons had four. The Celtics have done it three times ' 1953, 1962 and 1975.
|Doc Rivers makes his case for 4 Celtics as All-Stars
|at 4:04 pm ET
WALTHAM — After getting snubbed by the fans and being left without a single All-Star starter, the Celtics could get their retribution when All-Star reserves are announced Thursday night.
The Celtics have four viable candidates in Rajon Rondo, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett. By virtue of having the top record in the Eastern Conference, Doc Rivers will have the honor of coaching the East All-Stars on Feb. 20 in Los Angeles.
"I think I should get four guys on the roster," Rivers said following practice Thursday. "If I don't, I'd be very disappointed and if I do, I'll just play them all together. That way we can run offense in the All-Star Game. That'd be a first."
The Detroit Pistons had four All-Stars on the Eastern squad in 2006 but it is very rare for one team – no matter how good their record – to place four players on a team.
"If it happens, and let's hope it happens, then my choice will be who will be the fifth, Some interesting combinations you can throw out," said Rivers, before adding who he might throw out onto the court with his four players.
"Whoever is closest to free agency just so they can see how it would feel. I think it should happen. It's clear. It'd be nice. You look at the four guys, all of them have really sacrificed their individual numbers for team wins and sometimes that's held against them and I hope it's not in this case."
Celtics coach Doc Rivers made his weekly appearance on the Dennis & Callahan show Thursday morning. To hear the interview, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
The Celtics have thus far avoided a second-half letdown like the one that hurt them last season, costing them homecourt advantage for most of the playoffs. Rivers acknowledged that the obvious reason is the health of Kevin Garnett, but he noted that there are other factors as well, including having a healthy Paul Pierce.
"People forget, both were injured. Paul Pierce had the knee surgery as well as Kevin Garnett," Rivers said. "So, I think those two things are the biggest difference. And [Rajon] Rondo is another year [more experienced], playing great. And Ray Allen is having an unbelievable season. I think all those, in the one basket, is the reason we're playing well. But the big key is Kevin and Paul."
Allen gave a fiery speech before Rivers entered the locker room at halftime of Tuesday's victory over the Kings. Rivers said Allen got everyone's attention because he's not normally that vocal.
"Yeah, that was out of the ordinary, for sure. The tone and just the entire speech," Rivers said. "It was more about playing the right away. And you could hear it. It was at the second unit. He wasn't mad at the starters. it was all directed to the second unit. The starters came out and played great to start that game, and then the second unit kind of let it go. And it was more how they're were playing. And that's what he was frustrated with."
Reggie Miller has said he's cheering for Allen to break his record for most 3-pointers all-time, as Allen is within eight of the former Pacers star and current TNT analyst. However, the hosts said they don't believe Miller, never known for his graciousness during his playing days, is telling the truth. "No, I don't believe him, either," Rivers said. "I'm going to call 'bull' on that one with Reggie."
|Irish Coffee: Avery Bradley's stock rising
|02.01.11 at 11:34 am ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Avery Bradley's move to Maine has been the best thing for both him and the Celtics.
The C's first-round selection in the 2010 NBA draft, Bradley took his talents to Portland when the team sent him to the NBA Development League, and he's beginning to prove himself as one of the (minor) league's best.
The 20-year-old is flourishing in the NBADL, gaining valuable experience. But the value of his performance might be even greater for the Celtics. Because there's no urgency to force a young kid into the rotation, the C's — if necessary — can either call on a kid who two years ago was ranked higher than John Wall as a high school player or shop him with all the leverage in a trade discussion.
Either way, it's a win-win — another great pick by president of basketball operations Danny Ainge. Bradley is a valuable member of this Celtics team, even if he's not playing for them. Look at his averages while playing just 30 minutes a night in seven games (4 starts) for the Maine Red Claws:
- Points: 15.3
- Assists: 5.0
- Rebounds: 3.9
- Steals: 0.4
- Blocks: 0.4
- Turnovers: 4.3
- FG percentage: 39.8
- 3-point FG percentage: 36.4
- FT percentage: 83.3
Sure, his turnovers and field-goal percentage could use some improvement, but his offensive production has been better than expected, considering his defensive ability has always been his greatest strength. Here's how ESPNU described his game when they ranked him as the No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2009:

Timber is an amazing resource. Beautiful, durable and versatile, timber has stood the test of time.
It is renewable, recyclable and biodegradable. Timber is also a carbon store, as 50 % of the dry weight of timber is stored carbon, removed from the atmosphere by growing trees. Timber has a lower embodied energy than other building materials such as steel and concrete, while the residues provide a renewable energy substitute for fossil fuels.
Supporting the Western Australian timber industry is not only environmentally friendly it's economically responsible. The WA timber industry provides thousands of much needed local jobs for West Australians and generates over a billion dollars of economic activity annually.
FIFWA supports responsible and sustainable management of our forests and plantations and has been representing the interests of this proud industry for over 120 years. Welcome to our website!
Sustainable Management
Western Australia's forests are managed to the highest possible standards to meet the needs of current and future generations.
Forest Industries Federation of Western Australia Members represent the majority of the forest products industry in WA.
Environmental Certification

LUBBOCK - Perhaps the Panhandle Panthers should change their nickname to the Elephants.
The Panthers never forgot last year's playoff loss to Cisco, and that vivid memory helped Panhandle to a 41-21 win against the Loboes in Friday's rematch at Lowrey Field.
Quarterback Brock Sherwood passed for 294 yards and four touchdowns and ran for Panhandle's other two scores in the Class 2A Division II area game. Three of Sherwood's scoring passes went to Caleb Coffman, who finished with four catches for 135 yards.
Second-ranked Panhandle improved to 12-0 for the first time in 23 years and advanced to next week's regional semifinals against the winner of tonight's Coahoma-Ozona game. Next week's game will be back at Lowrey on Friday, either at 7:30 p.m. or at 8 as part of a doubleheader.
The Panthers fell behind 34-0 in the second quarter of last year's turnover-plagued area playoff against Cisco and never gave themselves a chance in a 48-33 loss, also at Lowrey Field.
"Our kids really wanted it. I know that's a cliche, but they've had to live with what happened here last year for a long time," said Panhandle coach David Sparkman, whose team rolled up 473 total yards against a Cisco defense that was allowing only 7.4 points per game.
"Our kids have invested a lot in this season."
Coffman caught a pair of 48-yard touchdown passes from Sherwood on what's referred to as a hideout play, where Coffman runs toward the sideline but remains on the field. He sneaked down the sideline unnoticed by the Cisco defense both times - for Panhandle's first and sixth TDs - and scored pretty much uncontested.
"It's not a designed play," Coffman said of the hideout. "But if the defense doesn't pick it up, it's an automatic call. I turn my back toward the other guys and, if the defense doesn't pick it up, someone will holler at Brock and let him know.
"It's a great relief to win this game," Coffman added. "It wasn't so much beating Cisco as it was proving to everybody that we were better than we showed last year. It was a long wait."
Known for its passing, Panhandle pulled away with three straight touchdowns in the second half because of its defense and running game. The Panthers scored on three straight possessions in the second half to turn a 21-14 halftime lead into a comfortable 41-14 margin on two Sherwood-to-Coffman passes and Sherwood's 5-yard run.
As they were pulling away, the Panthers' defense limited Cisco to one first down on three crucial possessions. This came after a first half in which Panhandle's defense surrendered 202 yards to the Loboes.
"It really wasn't anything strategic," linebacker Sy Slover said of Panhandle's defensive turnaround. "They (Loboes) were running all over us in the first half. The defense just sat down together at the half and decided to do something about it."
Specifically, the Panthers shut off the outside to elusive Cisco runner Tarrance Turner. The state-medalist 400-meter sprinter finished with 140 yards and two TDs, but wasn't a factor when Panhandle was pulling away in the second half.
"The guys did a good job of turning him (Turner) back in, and the inside guys did a good job of cleaning everything up inside," ssaid Slover, whose team has won 21 of its last 23 games. "I was proud of the way the guys handled him in the second half."
Panhandle's running game produced 134 yards in the second half. Neil Packard finished with 69 yards, while Erik Vance and Sherwood combined for 86 more.
"We take what the defense gives us, and they were giving us the run," said Sherwood, who now has 38 TD passes and four interceptions this year. "The offensive line was opening huge holes. It was to run with the way they were blocking."
Cisco, a state finalist last year, finished 10-2 after losing for just the third time in 28 games.
Panhandle led 21-14 at halftime as Sherwood threw touchdown passes of 48 yards to Coffman and 32 yards to Robert Hightower. Sherwood ran 1 yard for the other first-half TD, which gave the Panthers their seven-point halftime lead.
The Panthers' go-ahead score was set up when Chad Young recovered a short, high kickoff that gave Panhandle the ball at the Loboes' 40.
Sherwood's first 48-yard TD pass to Coffman came on Panhandle's second play.
Cisco rallied with two touchdown passes from Jason Ballinger - a 19-yarder to Race Henry and a 7-yarder to Turner - each on third-and-long. The pass to Turner gave the Loboes a 14-7 lead with 10:02 left before the half.
Panhandle began its run of 34 straight points with Sherwood's 32-yard scoring pass to Hightower that came on fourth-and-15.
Panhandle 41, Cisco 21
Records: Panhandle improved to 12-0 while Cisco finished 10-2.
Impact: Panhandle advanced to next week's Class 2A Division II regional semifinals.

Great place to spent some time in Lisbon. Situated in the center of Lisbon, in the flat you can find everything you need…very very nice and comfortable. Antonio is a very nice person :)
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft, sie ist super Gelegen und Antonio ist ein wahnsinnig netter Gastgeber! Sehr empfehlenswert!
Everything fine - great view and central location.
Great flat, great location and great city!
We stayed in this appartment for 4 days. Antonio was waiting when we arrived, thas wat nice en he has a lot of information about beautifull Lisboa. The appartment was nice and clean, the bed was excellent and we sleep well. The Yellow train drives through the street and was nice and easy to travel. a supermarket is two minutes to walk with everything you need including fresh bread. Because the metro strikes on the day we left, Antonio arranged a cab to the airport. Easy and it cost about 12 euro to get there on time.
It was a really nice place to stay. Kind regards from Holland to Antonio
The apartment was perfect for our stay in Lissabon: spatious, a good location (we went to the centre by foot, by bus, by metro and by tram), a good bed to sleep in but at night it was a bit too noisy. Antonio was a very good host, he gave us a lot of information from the start. Thank you!!
Very comfortable sofa bed, great location (bus stop right outside into town) & a very helpful host!
Lovely, well situated apartment with all stuff (we added a coffee machine) you need for a happy stay. Only the mirror in the bathroom could be a bit larger and the light brighter.
Antonio and his wife were very friendly and competent. All arrangements proceeded uncomplicated.
Thank you very much! Muito obrigada!
Antonio welcomed us very warmly in the apartment and gave us useful tips for our first visit to Lisbon. The apartment was like described, super nice, clean and the location is perfect for a city trip, I can only recommend it. We had a great time there and will definitely come back!

Posted on August 26, 2013 in Miscellaneous Tournaments
Sad news today from the tennis world. One of my all time favorite tennis players, James Blake has announced his retirement and that the US Open would be his final tournament. I guess I shouldn't be shocked by this, after all, it seems like Flushing Meadows is the place that many American players go to ride off into the sunset. Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick and now, James Blake. It's probably a bit unfair to those great American champions to put Blake in the same sentence as them, but to me, he deserves to be mentioned. A former world #4, he has made the quarterfinals of the US Open 2 times, is a 2007 Davis Cup champion, and has earned nearly $8 million in prize money over his 15 year career.
By announcing his retirement at this years US Open, and not after his knee issues in 2010, Blake retired the way he wanted to retire, with something left in the tank (just a couple weeks ago, he beat world #14 Jerzy Janowicz). Which is fitting for a player who played tennis the way he wanted to play. Unlike most of his contemporaries, Blake had Plan A: hit the ball hard and if that didn't work, Plan B: hit the ball harder and if that didn't work, Plan C: hit it even harder than before. There was no "let me grind it out" mentality. I can respect that, and I know that fellow playtester Michelle can as well. His shot making abilities and speed always kept me glued to the television.
And now, let's look back at some of my favorite James Blake moments:
A 29 shot rally vs a young Rafa:
A 5 set match – Blake vs Agassi in 2005 QF of US Open:
Of course, what Blake is most known for, his forehand. A 125MPH forehand return!
There has been and will be greater, more success American tennis players, but James Blake will rank among my all time favorites. From sleeveless to collared shirts, from dreadlocks to a shaved head, a lot has changed over the years, but when James Blake takes to the court for possibly the last time, for his match against Ivo Karlovic, one thing remains the same, I'll be glued to my TV.
