Project Jackson is heading to the top of the ninth inning as only one more vote is needed from Aiken County Council to defer several million dollars in property tax revenue that would help fund the endeavor.
County Council voted 6 to 3 for an extension of the North Augusta Tax Increment Financing plan, often referred to as the TIF, to help pay for the construction of a multi-use sports and entertainment venue, conference center and parking structures at the river front. Council members Kathy Rawls, Phil Napier and Willar Hightower voted against the motion.
The final reading will tentatively be held on Sept. 17 at the next regular Council meeting.
Before the vote was made, Councilman Phil Napier moved that the item be turned over to the voters in the form of a referendum. The motion was turned down with only Napier and Hightower supporting it.
On top of approximately $8 million generated from the County's participation in the current TIF, which expires in 2017, another $16.5 million will be deferred in property taxes of the 460-acre district for 30 years if it gets final approval.
Dozens of residents, potential investors and public figures spoke for and against the project during the intense two-and-half-hour public hearing. Traffic concerns, financing, environmental impacts, questions of job creation and calling for a referendum to let residents vote on the project were just a few of the many issues brought up during the meeting.
In one case, a resident reading his speech against the project ran out of time during the three-minute time limit set for each speaker, so another resident stood up and read the rest of his written speech for him.
People booed, cheered and called out both pro- and anti-project comments throughout the night.
Resident Mike Stake said he believes in economics, business and growth but said TIFs across the country have been abused in other states.
"Do it as a private individual," Stake said about funding the project. "If you wish to be an investor, put as much into it as you want but don't sign the County into it."
Tom Greene, the chairman of North Augusta 2000 and former city mayor, urged Council to approve the TIF extension. He said if it doesn't pass, Project Jackson fails, and North Augusta will continue a path towards becoming an "aging city."
"Our children will graduate high school or college and leave North Augusta," Greene said.
Once it got to Council, there were a mix of opinions across the board.
Councilwoman Kathy Rawls said that the private and public investor ratio is unacceptable. She cited a total of $75.8 million in TIF funds from the County, School District and North Augusta combined going into a project with approximately $101 million in private investments.
"Employees' salaries have been on hold for six years without keeping up with cost of living increases, ambulances are falling apart, other vehicles need replacing, equipment needs replacing and et cetera," Rawls said. "If we vote to extend this TIF another 30 years, we are selling out our county and selling out our employees."
Councilman Willar Hightower said that he didn't feel that the area in question was entirely "blighted," which is required under TIF law. He added that if Council is going to agree to an extension, he'd feel more comfortable with 15 years than three decades.
Councilman Scott Singer said that in all his years in Council, he turned down each TIF that came across the agenda because he didn't feel they were good economic deals. But he said he doesn't feel that Project Jackson is a bad economic deal.
Councilwoman Lawana McKenzie said that the issue at hand has many different points of view, and she hopes to make a final decision that will best represent the people in her district. She said the creations of jobs, even minimum wage positions, would be better than no job at all for many people. McKenzie said that, like with any project, it may come with a few problems but the pros and cons must be weighed out.
"I wish my district had the problem you've got tonight," McKenzie said to the audience.

Renewing the rivalry
Reds lineup vs. Cardinals
Stubbs 8
Phillips 4
Votto 3
Gomes 7
Bruce 9
Renteria 6
Cairo 5
Hernandez 2
Volquez 1
*Scott Rolen is out of the lineup today because his surgically repaired left shoulder has been bothering him, and has also led to neck and back soreness. Rolen saw medical director Dr. Tim Kremchek Thursday morning had his shoulder X-rayed. He was given two injections to try and relieve the pain. An MRI on his neck showed no issues.
"I got to the point when I played Wednesday, I'm trying to figure out how to catch up to 87, 88 [mph]. I'm thinking 'I'm trying to finish the game,'" Rolen said. "This is what I'm thinking. This is going the wrong way."
Since his eight-game hitting streak ended on April 11, Rolen is batting .138 (4-for-29).
Rolen said it usually takes a couple of days to stop feeling sore from injections. It might put him out for this three-game series. But he didn't rule out playing either.
"I think anything is feasible. I'm not sure where we are," Rolen said.
Rolen missed most of 2005 with a torn left labrum in his shoulder. It took two surgeries to repair it but he's continually had to monitor the shoulder and adjust his hitting style to play through it.
*Jared Burton is having arthroscopic surgery today to debride his right shoulder. Prognosis will come after the operation is done. It's another bad break for someone who's had health problems galore the past few seasons.
*Johnny Cueto's second rehab start for Triple-A Louisville didn't sound promising. He gave up eight runs, five earned runs on 9 hits over 1 2/3 innings with 2 walks, zero strikeouts and one home run. Louisville lost the game at Columbus, 19-3
*Homer Bailey is now slated to pitch for Louisville on Sunday vs. Toledo. His second rehab start was originally supposed to be today.
*The weather is iffy for tonight. Already had hail and thunderstorms earlier today after getting into town. Hearing a bunch of more storms could blow through later today. Guess we'll see what happens.

Aviation experts said the energetic quality of lithium-ion can be a concern onboard aircraft. "One of the issues with lithium batteries is they get very hot," Freiwald said. "When they ignite, they can burn so hot that Halon 1301 won't extinguish a fire."
Automakers, many of whom use lithium-ion chemistries in hybrids and electric cars, typically operate their batteries with cooling systems. The Chevy Volt, for example, employs a fluid coolant that circulates through 1mm thick channels machined into 144 metal plates sitting between the battery's cells. Other automakers have employed air cooling on hybrids.
Even with cooling, however, lithium-ion automotive batteries have been known to have problems on rare occasions. In 2011, a fire started in a Chevy Volt weeks after government crash testing, causing a ripple of concern. "The chemistry is edgy," Donald Sadoway of MIT wrote in an email to Design News after the incident. "The electrolyte is an organic fluid that is flammable, highly volatile at even moderately elevated temperature and in the presence of metallic lithium, which can form on the negative electrode at high charging rates."
Although it's not known whether the Dreamliner employs battery cooling systems, its batteries are smaller than those of plug-in hybrid cars. A National Transportation Board (NTSB) examination of an auxiliary power battery unit from the JAL Boeing 787 that caught fire in Boston's Logan Airport on January 7 showed that it measures 19 inches x 13 inches x 10 inches and weighs just 63 pounds. In contrast, electric vehicle batteries can weigh more than 400 pounds.
Freiwald said he doubts the two reported fuel leaks are related to the overheating incidents. Those were more likely to have been caused by human error, he said.
Experts who spoke with Design News emphasized that the cause of the problems isn't fully understood yet, and that such incidents need to be put into perspective. "None of these were catastrophic failures," Dietz told us. "The engineering systems provided an alert to the failures and action was taken. There should be some solace in that."

Sam Green/Cortez Journal
CORTEZ � As patient as a mule?
No, that�s not the adage, but this mule didn�t have a choice. Two Bit Loretta Lou was stuck in a mud hole.
Getting stuck in the mud may not sound like an emergency, but when it comes to horses and mules, it can be a battle for life or death.
Wednesday afternoon, however, Two Bit Loretta Lou emerged from the muddy abyss just fine. But it wasn�t an easy rescue.
�I was so relieved, I had tears in my eyes,� Shirley Ogle, 83, said about her beloved mule.
Shirley and Loretta Lou have been pals for 25 years, so it�s understandable that seeing that old mule pulled out of the mud was a huge relief.
The 30-year-old mule wandered into a mud hole near her corral and, like quicksand, her right-side legs were sucked deep into the muck.
The Cortez Fire Protection District responded with six people along with veterinarian Shane Cote of the Montezuma Veterinarian Clinic.
�We treated this like any other emergency,� said Fire Chief Jeff Vandevoorde. �It really went pretty smooth. I�m glad we got her out safely.�
With the veterinarian providing the expertise about how to extricate the mule from the mud, the fire crew went to work.
A cover was placed over the mule�s head to try and keep her calm. Then, after digging under the animal, two straps were looped around the mule. A tractor was used to lift her out of the mud and set her down on dry land.
Cote has dealt with this type of emergency before, and he knew the mule�s trapped legs would be weak and fatigued, so he wanted to roll her onto her other side.
With eight men � members of the fire crew, Shirley�s son, Kelly Ogle, and some neighbors � pulling on straps and Shirley anxiously watching nearby, they gently rolled Loretta Lou onto her other side. Then they waited.
When Loretta Lou was rested and ready for this stubborn ordeal to be done with, she pushed herself up.
A robust cheer went up from the crowd of rescuers and onlookers.
�There was lots of clapping and cheering,� Shirley Ogle said with a relieved chuckle. �When we saw her get up and all four legs were working, we were really glad.�
The mule was stuck for at least 1� hours, Ogle said. When a horse or mule is down and on its side for that long, there are major health risks, plus the possibility of hypothermia setting in.
The reason why the tractor with the front-end bucket was on the property was to help fix a water leak, which was what caused the mud hole.
Ogle said this was the first time something like this has happened to one of her animals.
�Having horses all my life, we knew it happens. You just hope it�s not yours,� she said. �Sometimes animals get themselves into situations, and they need help.�
Ogle checked on her mule before she went to bed, and got up early and visited with Loretta Lou in the morning.
Relief and joy were still in her voice Thursday afternoon.
�She has taken care of me, and I have taken care of her for 25 years,� she said. �Every horse or equestrian person says they want that perfect animal once in their lives. And she is it for me.�
Ogle�s mule was a successful show saddle mule, and the pair competed around California for years.
Vandevoorde, who owns two horses of his own, knew the urgency of the situation when they arrived.
�These animals are a part of the family to many people,� he said.
He also knows that horses, mules and livestock are essential to the livelihood of many who work the farms and ranches in Montezuma County.
When Ogle saw her mule stuck, she immediately called for help, but she knew there was nothing she could do until help arrived.
�You don�t panic, you just have to figure things out and stay calm,� she said.
Loretta Lou also did her part and didn�t panic.
�Mules are so smart, they won�t fight and injure themselves. She was so patient,� Ogle said.
The old mule fought to try and get loose, but didn�t thrash too much, Ogle said. Then she would rest and regain her strength before another attempt.
Once crews arrived, Ogle said, her mule seemed to understand that they were there to help her get out.
But Vandevoorde said they proceeded with caution when working with the large animal, which weighed more than 500 pounds.
�The main thing was to help keep our guys safe and also to not injure (the mule),� he said.
Ogle has lived in McElmo Canyon for four years after moving from California.
�I came through here 35 years ago and fell in love with the place. It took me another 35 years to move here,� she said with a laugh.
She and her late husband had another mule that passed away just last fall.
�Petey was only 27,� Ogle said with a laugh.
After moving to Cortez four years ago from the Chicago area, Vandevoorde admitted that he hasn�t gotten a lot of animal calls in his career. A couple dogs falling through the ice in the winter and one time a bull made a daring escape from the sale barn on Highway 491.
�This is the first horse call I�ve been on,� he said.
The bull incident didn�t turn out well � for the bull. With the brazen bovine on the loose, causing havoc on U.S. Highway 491, the sale barn posse was forced to shoot the animal before it caused a major traffic accident, Vandevoorde said.
But pulling a mule out of the muck was a very satisfying day.
For Ogle, it was a great day that started out bad but ended perfectly.
After spending a good part of the day making sure that Loretta Lou was fully recovered, Ogle could relax. And both she and her mule could get back to enjoying retirement.
�She�s earned her retirement,� Ogle said.
Nothing wrong or stubborn about that.

That one should have gone in
We blew a huge lead...that is haunting
Got to make the free throws BG.
Fisher getting all the rebounds? What happen to Blake and DJ.
Why are we just chucking shots?
Cmon BG make the FT.
Man, Blake's free-throw shooting has regressed the past few games. I hope he gets his groove back soon.
They are calling rinky y fouls on the Clips. No fouls on OKC though.
Would love to see Barnes up-fake then drive.
Oh, ffs... yeah, that wasn't a foul. It was a 3 second violation even though they were holding him in the paint.
HOW is that NOT a T on Fing Westbrook???
There's no beating OKC and the refs at home... pretty pathetic.
Westbrook and Durant can overreact and no T gets called....this is sum bs

Now make the FT Blake.
WTF WHY doesn't Blake spin to his right????
Nice perimeter defense by DJ on Westbrook.

Great shot, and that was a foul
Good shot Jamal!
I hope crawfords back is ok.
They cheat too much for OKC, Jamal can't get a foul?
Ball DON"T lie punk.
how do you miss a obvious call like that.. I thought you were supposed to let the shooter land safely. should be 3 plus 1.. Yet Durant gets these phantom calls but the ball don't lie missed both.
Jamal's three was sweet!!! We're up 4. C'mon, Clips, pad this lead for the win!!
That BS man if that is not a foul on Crawford's shot, then I don't know what is a foul.
Thanks hubris for jinxing Durant

Hell Yeah lets Go
Damn where's the defense

I have already written about one George MITCHELL in my family tree, but he was on my mother's side of the family, this one is on my father's side and was probably unrelated. This George MITCHELL was my 4x great-grandfather and in contrast with the other George MITCHELL I know almost nothing about his life.
The first record I have is his marriage to my 4x great-grandmother Mary SMITH. The marriage took place on the 29th September 1828 in the parish of Cuckfield, Sussex. As the marriage was before 1837 there is no mention of his father's name, all I have is that they were both from Cuckfield and neither had been married before. I haven't checked the original record, so there may be additional clues in the names of the witnesses, it is worth a look anyway.
In the 1841 census George and Mary are living in Bolney, Sussex but I can't make out the name of the farm on which they are living. They have four children: Mary Ann, Harriett, Caroline and Alfred. The 1841 census provides the only piece of evidence for George's birth, his age is given as 35 years and he was born in Sussex. In theory this should mean that George was aged between 35 and 39 years old, but this is by no means guaranteed.
By the 1851 census George has died and Mary is living as a widow, with four children: Harriett, Caroline, Alfred and William. This provides the only real evidence for George's death, seemingly some time between the birth of William in 1844 and the 1851 census. Mary is shown as a pauper, so there may be some further clues among the records of the Poor Law Guardians.
It seems that George and Mary had six children, but apart from Harriett (my 3x great-grandmother) I know very little about what became of them. They were:
- Eliza MITCHELL (baptised 7th December 1828 in Cuckfield, Sussex)
- Mary Ann MITCHELL (baptised 30th January 1831 in Cuckfield, Sussex)
- Harriett MITCHELL (born c1834 in Slaugham, Sussex)
- Caroline MITCHELL (born Q3 1838 in Slaugham, Sussex)
- Alfred George MITCHELL (born 23rd February 1841 in Bolney, Sussex)
- William MITCHELL (baptised 14th April 1844 in Balcombe, Sussex)
The fact that William was baptised in Balcombe possibly provides a clue to the death of George. There is a burial recorded in Cuckfield on the 30th October 1844 of a 38 year old George MITCHELL from Balcombe. It seems quite likely that this was my 4x great-grandfather, and there is a chance that he was the victim of an accident on the London to Brighton railway. The Times newspaper refers to the victim as Thomas MITCHELL, but I can't find a death registration for either Thomas or George MITCHELL in the right place at the right time. Local newspapers my clarify this situation as The Times might have got his name wrong.

We are happy to announce the Labyrinth has had a total renewal, due to the beautiful work of Mick, John and Warwick of the Crystal Castle team, and Patrick from Interactive Landscapes. It is looking absolutely fantastic, and feels better than ever.
Referred to as A Walk of Spiritual Reflection, the labyrinth can be used simply as a peaceful walk or as an opportunity to quietly reflect and allow the space for an answer to arise. A suggestion is for the walker to hold a question in their mind whilst allowing themselves to be receptive or 'invite in' guidance.
In the Middle Ages an eleven-circuit labyrinth design divided into four quadrants became popular. It was often found in Gothic Cathedrals but over time many of these eleven-circuit designs were destroyed or intentionally removed. The most famous labyrinth still in existence today is at Chartres Cathedral near Paris. Its labyrinth was built around 1200 AD.
Created in 2000, the Crystal Castle's labyrinth is based on this same design. The walker meanders through each of the four quadrants several times before reaching the goal. An expectancy is created as to when the centre will be reached. At the centre is a rosette design which has a rich symbolic value including that of enlightenment.
This amazing place has been the site for wedding ceremonies and solstice rituals with its mystical setting and rose quartz flower of life at the centre.

Lets keep up the good D and the flow on the offense and get another win.
Pelicans starters didn't play much last night
Well neither did ours
Sticking ahead on Doc defensive principles will get this win for Clips.
From the half of the game I watched last night, the Pelicans looked pretty terrible. They couldn't stop anything from anywhere. I would look for more of that tonight against us. Neither Evans nor Davis is expected to return for this westcoast game...so there's really nothing I can get excited about honestly. The only trouble they can cause against us, of what I can see, is maybe their rebounding ability from the 3 and 4 with Ryan Anderson and our Aminu starting (Aminu's averaged 9.0 rebounds in the last 8 games from SF).
Not really any storylines I find interesting anymore. I guess you can say Gordon wakes up when he plays us, averaged 24.5 points against us last season, but can't really pretend watching Gordon take 18 jumpers is still interesting. I've never been a huge fan of Jrue Holiday and he isn't given the same scoring opportunities with NO so even less there. In the end I guess I'm watching Amundson. The Ponytail has average 4.2 points and 6.4 rebounds in the last 5 games averaging 15 minutes, wonder what he does tonight! Gunna be a good game...
Didn't Ryan Anderson hit like 9 three's on us last year? I hate going up against him.
I can't wait to see EJ back on the Clippers court, he's still one of my fav Clips of all time.
I still think of Jason Smith's dirty hit every time we play them. I hope Blake continues to go off.
I also would like to see Barnes back out there.
Clippers -10.5. This makes me nervous, lol.
I know the Pelicans are gonna show some grit because they don't want to go 0-4 and they have some talent. But we need to gain some momentum from that SA win. Show these guys who's boss tonight!
The only scary thing is that here is another crappy team we play and you know what happens against crappy teams. Time to turn the table on bottom tier teams.
No reason for this team to be overconfident with so much work ahead. Again the Suns not far off and the sense of urgency to catch up to the top three teams in the west. Team has been playing better but still looks like getting homecourt will be a huge factor in any round.
If this was an east team i would be scared. Strangely we handle west teams
Blake will go off tonight
Y'know...it doesn't matter how "mean" that pelican's face is on the logo, it's still a Pelican! lol
Don't be dissing one of the most feared birds on the planet.
Don't be dissing one of the most feared birds on the planet.
LOL! I stand corrected.
He averages over 10 three FGA per 48 so hitting 9 again isn't out of his range.
Blake is starting to make the effort to cover deep players so this ought to be an interesting contest to watch.
Apparently Anderson was held to 12.3 points a game on 31.5% shooting in 4 games against the Clippers last year. Still, a great shooter can get hot at any time!
In tonight's game we have a first and a worst:
Anderson leads the NBA in FT% at 98%.
DJ is dead last in the NBA in FT% at 40%. DHo is 2nd worst at 56%
Blake is tied for 4th in the NBA in FTAs at 180 but is 11th in FTM with 120.
^ Blake's tied for 4th FTA's attempted? I like that. Not too concerned about being 11th in makes, we know he's not the best FT shooter, however he's almost 67% which is an improvement.
DJ is first in the NBA in FG% at 63.5%
Tyreke is one of the worst in the NBA with a FG% of 41%. EGor not far behind at 43%. Jamal Crawford tied with him.
I like that too.
I am a glass half full kinda guy. Clippers are 11-3 vs Western conference foes. Best in NBA.
OKC is 14-4 and SAS are 11-4
Indiana is 14-2 vs the Leastern Conference.
If we handle our business and don't take any quarters off, this game shouldn't be too much of a problem (knock on wood). I have a feeling Blake is going to have a big game tonight.
True. It should be no problem.
I feel that we have turned a corner and this game should be fine. Come on Clips prove me right!
Just got to hope our team comes out and plays like they played against the spurs.. You make your case as a contender by beating other contenders but you validate and verify that status by beating these teams..
Davis and Reke are playing tonight. Uh oh!
Good...with all this talk about Davis being a better PF than Blake, maybe BG will have some extra motivation.
We should still be able to easily get the win in this game..
I second this. Maybe Blake is tired of all this nonsense and comes out punching back.
Well if people are worried about us playing down then by that logic this should help
Of course! Davis and Tyreke would comeback from injury against us smh
looks like crawford will continue to start...
Evans isn't really a huge surprise, but Davis was supposed to miss atleast another week and a half to make the lower end of his timetable. Still don't think the Pelicans have enough scoring to beat us. Should be a much tougher defensive matchup now though. Turn of events and now this will be far more interesting to watch.
Additionally, Doc says he wants to try and avoid using Barnes if he can. Was kindof looking forward to watching Matt so...we'll see.
Bring on Tyreke. The more he shoots the more he misses.
I almost forgot he was traded to New Orleans. Can't wait to see this game
Love and Pek manhandled the Blazers tonight. 120-109
59 pts and 24 rebounds between them.
Clippers need to establish another win streak like last year. Let's win this, Clippers!
Game Time!
Okay so Evans and Davis aren't starting but did indeed suit up
EDIT: Anderson couldn't have been more open for that 3 if he was in shootaround. Dudley answers though. My dawg.
5 points for Dudley already.
How Anderson getting so open for these threes?
BG threeee.
Blake for three.. BINGO!
They're playing him very loosely. The first one was after a loose ball that ended up in New Orlean's hands. He's a hot shooter. But our offense looks so good.
Davis and Evans came in quick.
Wow there's Blake camped out in the three point corner again. Who'da thunk it? Nailed it.
Blake 3!!! BINGO!

The death certificate for Thomas NICHOLLS arrived yesterday, and the question that stills needs to be answered is whether this is my Thomas NICHOLLS?
Looking at the columns one by one it seems that it is a good match, but I still have doubts.
According to the certificate Thomas NICHOLLS died on the 21st February 1848 in Blean, Kent. My Thomas NICHOLLS was last recorded at Blean at the baptism of his daughter Eleanor on the 27th June 1847 and by the 1851 census his wife was recorded as a widow. So the date and place fit with the known facts and don't rule it out.
Not surprisingly the name and sex entries match. I did search for other variants of the name NICHOLLS and there didn't seem to be any other likely matches, so whilst this conforms with the known facts it is not in itself conclusive.
Thomas' age is recorded as 30 years and the only other record of his age is that in the 1841 census where he is recorded as being aged 20. If the enumerator record his age correctly then this should mean he was between 20 to 24 years old in 1841. This would mean that about seven years later in 1848 Thomas would be between 27 and 31 years old. So the age of 30 years when he died fits the known data, but once again is not conclusive due to the limited and potentially inaccurate data previously available.
The certificate records his occupation as "Plate Layer on the Rail[way]". In 1841 my Thomas is recorded as an excavator, which I have taken to mean that he was working on the construction of the Redhill to Tonbridge Railway. It seems quite plausible that he had progressed to a slightly more skilled job within the railway. Again this seems a good match but the description on the 1841 census could be misleading.
The cause of death was Typhus Fever (not certified). I have nothing to compare this with so it is of no use in my comparison.
The informant on the certificate is a bit of a mystery, it is recorded as Mary Osman who was from Blean and present at the death, and she made her mark in the form of a cross rather than signing a name. I have no idea who Mary Osman was so I will need to investigate Mary further, but for now this doesn't rule out that this was by Thomas but it does help prove it either.
The date of registration was the 25th February 1848, four days after his death, which is not unusual and the registrar looks to have been Hammond Hills. Neither fact is really relevant to my research, but are included for completeness.
So all in all the facts seem to fit, but it is hard for me to accept it as conclusive. The good news is that there is nothing that rules this Thomas NICHOLLS out, like being too young to have been married and had children, but there is equally nothing that provides a positive connection with the existing data.
Deep down I think that this is the right certificate and will probably use this as a starting point for further research, but until I can find more evidence there will always be an element of doubt in my mind. I will cautiously pursue this branch of my family tree, but be mindful of the fact that at some stage in the future further evidence may come to light which means it will need to be pruned back.

The Aiken County Sheriff's Office is seeking applicants to serve as detention deputies in the Doris C. Gravatt Detention Center.
The jail has multiple positions available for people of varied experience levels. Capt. Nick Gallam, jail administrator, said the jail has seen a decrease in the number of applications received.
"Our biggest problem is we haven't been able to find candidates recently," he said. "A lot of times, people don't think about the jail as a career. Everybody sees the police officer in the car and they want to do that. There are some good careers inside of the jail."
Most of the new hires will be working in the jail's housing units, which currently hold about 300 inmates, Gallam said. Pre-trial detention is the "biggest chunk" of what detention deputies do.
Deputies will have a variety of responsibilities, including managing inmate behavior, making periodic checks of housing units, performing personal and cell searches, maintaining control and discipline of inmates, instructing inmates in general housekeeping, reacting quickly and calmly to emergency situations and establishing and maintaining relationships with the public, internal staff and law enforcement agencies.
To apply for a position, a candidate must be 21 years old, a U.S. citizen, possess a high school diploma or GED, have a good driving record and no criminal history, pass a pre-employment drug screen and possess good moral character.
Gallam said great communications skills are perhaps the most important skill a candidate could possess.
"Twenty years ago, when you were hiring someone for working in a jail, the mindset was you needed Buffo the big, burly 300-pound guy," he said. "That was the way they did things. Now, it's about managing the inmate population. Size, gender, that doesn't really matter so much nowadays."
A high number of applicants are typically weeded out for criminal histories, bad driving records or not meeting the minimum requirements, according to Gallam. Others lack proper interviewing skills or can't pass preliminary testing, which includes a polygraph test.
"You take 20 candidates and end up with two people you can hire," he said.
Some criminal offenses are looked at on a case-by-case basis, but Gallam said a candidate with a criminal record rarely gets hired.
"There are some things we can work with, but those are very, very minor things," he said. "We also understand that people do things when they're young and dumb and don't realize what they're doing to their future. Sometimes those are salvageable people."
Previous law enforcement experience is not necessary to become a detention deputy.
"To be honest, sometimes I like having that blank slate that we can train. Experience is always good," Gallam said. "We've sent several folks on the road patrol from the jail that are awesome deputies because of the skills they learn inside this jail."
A candidate who is hired will have to go through a two-week training class on fundamentals, theory, policy and procedure. From there, they will work with a field training officer for 10 working shifts. Then, they go to the S.C. Criminal Justice Academy for three weeks.
For more information, visit the Sheriff's Office website at www.aikencountysheriff.org.
Completed applications should be emailed to Lt. Shawn Carlan at email@example.com.

The day that you've always been waiting for is drawing near – seeing your beautiful daughter walk down the aisle on her wedding day. And to make her momentous event even more special, stepping into the room in a glorious mother of the bride dress adds just the perfect touch of class and sophistication. Finding the right style is key because you want to wear a look that complements your daughter's wedding dress and/or bridesmaid dresses. And at the same time, you want a look that touches upon elements of hip and trendy, while maintaining a true sense of elegance and modesty. And with the many selections of dresses for the bride's mother at Camille La Vie, finding the right one that matches your style and your daughter's may not be far out of reach. The result: you can help your daughter prepare for her wedding totally stress-free, since your dress will be ready and waiting in your wardrobe to make it's fabulous debut. Here are of lovely dress trends to consider:
Caplet mother of the bride dresses
For the perfect level of demure and elegance, this style conveys a timeless aura with it's feminine shape and flattering details. Opt for a look with a sheer caplet material to keep your overall dress light and wispy. For some awe-inspiring doses of chic, find a dress that also includes a series of tiers or cascading patterns to draw the eyes from the top to the bottom of the dress. And if your daughter has illusion details and a tiered skirt on her dress, this look may just be the perfect match!
Illusion sleeves on mother of the bride dresses
Wear a dress with sheer elements definitely makes for a more aesthetically pleasing look when combined with other fabrics that are more rich in detail. Try a style with cap illusion in the sleeve area or perhaps along the neckline for a sweetly sensation feel. Find a mix of layered chiffon along the bodice and skirt area, which will create an appealingly chic feel.
Taffeta mother of the bride dresses
For a classically stunning dress with iridescent coloration, the taffeta fabric is a widely popular style as a mother of the bride dress. Although the fabric may have a heftier weight in its look and feel, you can always incorporate other design elements to lighten the style up. For instance, a bodice comprised of layers of lace on satin will strike the perfect balance. If you're shopping for a taffeta dress with sleeves or at least more versatility, you can even try on ones with matching bolero jackets. The bonus: two looks in one, which can transition into different seasons.
Shawl collar mother of the bride dresses
One of the most flattering features of a lady is her collarbone, so finding a dress that highlights this elegant detail will certainly result in a more than pleasing look. And in keeping with the wedding dress code, you may want to consider a shawl collar with three-quarter inch sleeves that follows down into a breathtaking A-line long dress. You will stand out the regal woman of the evening standing by the breathtaking bride in her wedding gown masterpiece.

Research: 2013 Government IT Salary Survey
Federal IT Pros Continue to Feel Budget Squeeze
Pressures on federal IT salaries keep building: 42% of IT managers and 35% of staff say their pay has been frozen because of the economy, our survey finds. Despite those findings, government IT workers are generally satisfied with their compensation, and 45% of federal IT staffers and 47% of managers say they're very secure in their jobs. But uncertainty lies ahead.
Survey Name 2013 InformationWeek U.S. IT Salary Survey: Federal Government
Survey Date January 2013
Region United States
Number of Respondents 755 federal government IT employees, composed of 479 IT staff and 276 IT managers
Purpose To track IT salary and compensation trends from the perspective of those on the front lines, InformationWeek conducts an annual U.S. IT Salary Survey. Now in its 16th year, it's the largest employee-based IT salary survey in the country. Last year 13,880 full-time IT professionals completed the Web-based survey. This year 14,074 took part. The goal of this trendable study is to measure various aspects of compensation, benefits and job satisfaction. This report focuses on the 755 federal government IT professionals who participated in the survey.
Methodology The survey was designed by InformationWeek and fielded online. The survey was promoted in InformationWeek's daily and weekly newsletters. In addition, email invitations with an embedded link to the survey were sent to qualified IT professionals from InformationWeek Business Technology Network print, newsletter and events databases. The survey was fielded from November 2012 to January 2013.
The information in this report is based on responses from 755 federal government IT professionals. Unemployed and part-time workers were excluded from these results, as were respondents from outside the United States. This report uses median rather than mean or average figures for salary and percentage salary changes to eliminate distortions caused by extremes at the high or low ends of the responses.

Catching up
Catching up on archive lecture.
Thank you Eric
still getting caught up, better late than never.
hello all from Edmonton, Alberta
Thanks for archiving these sessions, well worth the review
Good presentation as an introduction and overview. It sounds like you must have a minor in Computer Science in addition to your EE training. You touched on, hinted at, or alluded to a lot of concepts. I would like to see/hear more on fragmentation, overhead (space overhead, e.g. meta-data and block size allocations ... and time allocation in terms of search efficiencies). Looking at the week's syllabus I am hoping you will get to these topics / details ... I would also like to hear more on where / how these file systems are used, which was indicated sometimes specifically, sometimes more generally ...
Just catching up
just catching up
I mostly work on projects with all flavours of ARM. I've worked with FAT and ext filesystems in embedded systems
very good,
see you all tomorrow
Thanks...I'll try to be earlier tomorrow.
can you talk about the google's distributed file system? Are they very different than the traditional file system or just another subset from your presentation?
See ya tomorrow.
thank you
Thank you.
Great introduction material. Thank you.
Thank you for nice presentatin. See you tomorrow.
Thanks Eric.
Working with FAT12/16/32 want to know more about JJFS, ext3 and ext4
Thanks everyone, it's been a pleasure, see you tomorrow for the lecture on FAT's internal architecture and details about its operation.
jnettleton: Will you be discussing fault tolerance (because of power cycle, exceptions, bad clusters, etc)?
Mark1200: have you used a file system with your NAND storage or did you use it to store plain raw data?
Atlant: I'll be there all week.
Thanks, looking forward to the folowwing sessions.
Thanks, Eric. The video HD application would be security, so the camera would be enabled by some sensor net, then stop recording when the sensors return to normal or the media fills up. After a block is transferred to the second storage location and successful transmission is verified, a n erase operation would be performed on the original data..
Thanks, Eric! This has been excellent.
eric: Thanks -- See you on Friday! (Well, whichever days of the week that you're here.) And "Thanks!"
Atlant: Unfortenately, I won't be covering NAND-specific file systems (nor know much about UBIfs) , but I'll cover FTLs which would allow you to use FAT.
eric: I'm sorry but I don't remember. If I can, I'll check that log before Friday.
I have worked with FAT12/16/32 our own implementation. I have also written custom file storage systems for RAM, NOR, NAND and MNAND storage.
"oven" -> "often"
Atlant: were they write errors as reported by the device's status register or was it read errors after the page had been written?
eric: Even now, we've found that UBIfs has certain pathological error conditions from which it doesn't recover gracefully. It tends to try to immediately re-use the just-failed block and because you're trying to write exactly the same data to exactly the same block, it oven fails again in exactly the same fashion. In my favorite logfile, this went on for *SEVERAL HOURS*!P.S.: I'd love to hear about good alternatives to UBIfs! ;-)
Johan Hartman: For wear and flash media, most FTLs (Flash Translation Layers) will implement some sort of wear leveliing, so that you don't have to worry that much about excessive wear. I will detail that in lecture 5 (Friday)
eric: ("but write errors are really uncommon") You never met the MLC Flash that we were using for a while! ;-)
So what then is the lesser of these evile's. Living with having to recover from open files at every boot-up - if that is possible. Living with excessive wear because of many re-open, append data and close. Or is there some other clever mechanism that you will be addressing during the course.
Atlant: right, maybe not 100% deterministic, but write errors are really uncommon, if you don't try to reuse failed blocks.
Johan Hartman: Pre-allocating a file (seeking until desired length can do that) allows you to prevent some of the metadata updates. Some FS implementations also have metadata caching features that will cause no metadata to be updated until the file is closed or the metadata is explicitely flushed
eric: As long as one accepts that the ratio can be quite a few orders of magnitude. And I think it's only deterministic if one can assume a "perfect" Flash device; the moment you start to encounter read- or write-disturb errors, all assumptions of determinism fall apart.
Atlant: the worst sector write time can be deterministic, althought not as good as the average sector write time.
Johan: That sort of approach, though, sounds like it would require you to write your own custom Flash File System. The widely-available FFSs try to emulate ordinary magnetic disk drives and they often end up being too-clever for their own good.
Alaskaman66: a volume on a separate, dedicated device might be the best, if you're also doing some other operations on other files in your application.
Johan: In environments with "big" operating system (such as Linux), you also see effects from the system "caching" your data. Linux may be able to "write" (store in its main-memory file cache) a few dozen megabytes but the next byte you write may force a real file-device operation; that write may go *VERY* slowly!
Can you mitigate these problems by allocating and writing a large file - then only overwriting blocks in it as you log data. If you choose teh erase state data of the flash for the default data you write to it, then theoretically, you dont have to erase blacks to write new data?
make that "...one more page..."
Time on a Flash device usually *ISN'T* deterministic because you may be able to quickly write on more page to an already-erased Flash Physical Erase Block or you may not have any more un-erased pages and you now need to garnage-collect the free space and erase one or more full Physical Erase Blocks.
Johan Hartmann: yes the metadata has to be written everytime you grow the file, or even write to the file, since you update the "last write" date/time. That would mean greater wear on those sectors that store the file metadata, but on Flash Memory, in order to use a traditional file system like FAT, you need some translation layer. Those often implement wear leveling.
@Atlant. That means you have a difficult choice to make between wearing the flash media and having an open file corrupted by a power failure. Is the time to append a block of data to a file on a flash media deterministic?
erice (re recovery schemes): Yes, that's the sort of thing I was referring to. And even if they do attempt to implement recovery, users expect the embedded system to respond immediately upon power on and not spend half an hour running fsck. ;-)
RMRSS: the file size is limited because the metadata associated to a file has a 4 byte field for the size in bytes (max 4GB). It cannot be curcumvented, unfortunately.
I have an application question that considers speed differences. Say you are using an HD camera, and a DSP to convert the video to MPEG-4 on the fly. You need to send this video to an external location over a bandwidth limited link. Obviously, the file system (say NTFS) that stores the MPEG files needs to keep up, but the transmission can be done slower and later. Would you use a seperate file system and storage to transfer MPEG files to a "comm" file for transmission. Maybe a second physical system all by itself associated with an RF link? Thanks
...Many Flash File Systems also don't keep "last accessed" dates so that at least *THAT* metadata doesn't need to be updated.
Johan: Yes, every time you modify a file on the Flash file system, the metadata needs to be modified. The flash file systems try to be "clever" about not ,ocating the metadata in a fixed spot on the Flash chip so they don't wear that spot out early. ...
Thanks Eric and Lauren; Excellent!
@Atlant: Also, embedded systems don't usually implement complex recovery algorithms as they're limited resource-wize.
eric: And today, more and more PCs are laptops with batteries so mains power failures are becoming less of an issue for many (but not all) PCs.
what is the mechanism behind the 4GB file limit ie is it the same for FAT16 as FAT32 and can it be circumvented and if so is it practical?
Thank you. Very good presentation
What is the impact on a flash based system if you close a file, then re-open it often to append to it. I would guess that the file meta data have to be re-written evry time?
@cghaba: Mostly, yes. It's worsened by the fact that some devices might be powered off by the user at any time. Of course, PCs might use more caching and file buffering which might make matters worse, but since they're plugged into the mains, that's less of an issue.
Great presentation, good information
kevenm1, et al.: Embedded systems often have fewer resource from which to recover minor corruption in their file systems than do full-scale PCs. Thus minor corruption can lead to a "bricked" embedded device.
thanks for the presentation. pretty informative/
Reset on embedded system can be as disruptive as on a PC, and in many cases worse.
@jareestad: They are typically more robust when the file is closed, since it's metadata will not be overwritten, which might be a source of corruption. I will go in more details about how corruption can occur in day 3 lecture.
Thanks!Good Presentation.
Hi Eric,
Definitely for my purposes I would liek to learn more about the file systems used with Power-PC microprocessors.
Thanks for the excellent presentation!
Thanks Eric , its good info
Is the effect of a reset on an embedde FS the same as for a PC system?
very useful information for me, Eric, excellent job too..
Very informative, thank you
Thanks Eric
Thanks a lot!
Thanks, Eric. Very informative, and a subject most folks don't want to deal with
Thank you Eric.
good session today
I will be storing simple text data in 7 bit format,
The data source will be from scanned optical sources.
jaarestad: Robustness against power-cuts can be a *HUGE* issue with embedded filesystems.
Thank you Eric!!
Thanks til tomorow.
Thanks Eric, great presentation.
Thanks, Eric!
Thank you, Eric!
Thanks Eric. These will be very useful lectures!
Merci, Eric.
Nice =)...
Thank you for today's lecture Eric
Thank you
thank you Eric
@Atlant - interfacing with "real world" (reading files created by other devices/users) may be the only reason...
thanks, see you tomorrow
Certainly could, depends on application
Good presentation
Not if by "short file names" you mean 8.3 filename. Anything else is considered "long".
thanks for the overview Eric
@david.rea: something like ".../logs/YYYYMMDD/HHMMSS.txt" does not work?
Any other UBIfs users here?
caa028: Because the device might interface to other devices "in the real world"?
Because you're encoding (e.g.) a date/timetamp in the filenames of logged data?
> Why would one need long file names support on an embedded device?Save log files in YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.txt format?
Depends on your application
Why would one need long file names support on an embedded device?
No zfs users here?
never heard of it
(If I said F11ODS-1 and F11ODS-2, would anyone know what I'm talking about? ;-) )
Will you be discussing fault tolerance (because of power cycle, exceptions, bad clusters, etc)?
being a Linux guy I lean towards Ext2/3/4
If it is like computers probably NTFS but I think that FAT32 would be easier to learn at first.
FAT32 also has a large overhead for small files on large devices.
Ext2/3/4, HFS/HFS +,
FAT and Ext2/3/4
I have used FAT 32 but have not done any Programming.
Haven't yet worked with a file system in an embedded capacity. Would probably be working with a FAT variant since we're looking at eventually implementing embedded Linux.
No experience yet
ext2/3 in particular but i am interested by the other one
I only heard about FAT and ext2/3/4. Don't know the ohters. I think I would like to work with FAT32
FAT, ext3
Interested in FAT and FAT32 which seem to be in everything
An embedded system that can survice loss of power during updates is handy.
I would like to use FAT
FAT16 and FAT32 is what we are using.
None yet...
Worked with FAT
The FAT man cometh
homebrew fs
Our only expirence is with FAT.
Not yet used any FS
fat16 and fat 32
Ext3, FAT32, UBIfs
@Atlant - as log as I don't have to mop the floor...
I think B-Tree stood for binary Tree in 1974
Slide 15
caa028: You'll have to stay late and clean the erasers!
this is good
A bit late for the live session today...
Hello everyone!
Not used embedded file systems yet.
No experience on Programming.
problem with slides loading
I have not used a file system in any designs yet.
I have used mostly 8 bit and 16 bit micros, but I would be receiptive to more advanced micros for right application.
PIC, Atmel and Cortex
Ankura: Using INternet Explorer, the Audio Player is appearing several paragraphs *ABOVE* the box I'm using to type this chat comment. It's just "one line" high.
(ankura - it's right below the title of the page; try reloading or re-logging in if you can't see it)
@ankura keep refreshing, use firefox or Google Chrome
ATMEL ATmega 8bit
PIC, MegaAVR, Cortex
Depends on the client requirements, but have used MSP430, PSoC, some of the smaller Atmels.
Cortex M3 so far
used both types microcontrollers (freescale 9s12) and microprocessors (atmel SAM9263)
I can't see the player, what's wrong ? Can someone help me please?
TI CC111x 32K RAM
No experience to this.

Never wrote anything for a FS, but use FAT16/32 and NTFS in computer systems
try refreshing page
No work with FS for embedded systems
I have no audio, just noise
never used a file system in embedded system
Yes we have an open source one working on an embedded platform
Worked with fat16/32 FS
I've used a file stack in a supplied framework, never understood it...LOL.
used FAT system
Never used in embedded system but expect to in near future. Great timing for this class!
Never used file system in embedded application
(Ankura: Press the "Play" arrow on the audio player.)
have used a fat based fs
New to this.
Worked extensively with various file systems. Does it ever go well?
Have not before but working on a project using it now.
yes, just finished writing a fat16/32 file system for an embedded application accessing SD cards
yes a use my own file system
I have not used a file system in an embedded system
No real experience, educate me.
Not yet for me... new to me...
I have not used FS stack and not implemented a FS.
Have implemented FAT for RAM PCMCIA card removeable media.
Slide 5 -- QDOS or Seattle DOS? in 1981?
Never used a file system stack
try refresh a few times and use firefox
Using Linux + UbiFS.
I don't hear anything, plus the player dis not launch. Whats wrong?

Multiple type of file systems are routinely done on large systems. Our Linux servers use one style for the boot and another for the data -- for journaling. The boot volume does not change much. It's done routinely and much more than most people realize. On MCUs with small file systmes -- mostly SD cards etc. I would guess not so much. A suite of hard drives changes the picture.
Good morning from VT.
Hello from snowy Valdez once again.
Reviewed day 1 slides; any comments on/examples of systems where more than one FS is used, to balance different needs in different parts of the system? e.g. high reliability for mission critical firmware in one part of the system but more lightweight storage in another part of the system, for user data that is expected to be backed up?
Slides look super.
see you soon
Beware the ides of march !

I think Jamal is back lol
Which means trouble ... ahem.. i mean.. more trouble for GSW..(GUN SHOT WOUND)
Looks like Jamal is warming up!
Jamal Crawford BINGO!
Lol, yep, Jamal is back. That high-arcing bingo was Sweeeet!
Jamal getting some rhythm, great to see
4 POINT PLAY! Lets do this Jamal.
HEAT check for Jamal....BINGO and 1
Oh me oh my, Jamal got a foul making a bingo, lol.
2 point ballgame.. wow.
Bench making a contest of it.
The patented J-Cross 4-pointer... you watching, Duds?
Right Cleepers lol..
heat checklol
Dudley ur killing me so much..
Now that is Clipper basketball.
Lol, Clips are ahead.
Granger.. get your butt out there..
That should be all for Jamal.
Barnes for bingo!
Matt Barnes for 3... BINGO!
Good job, Big Baby!
omg dudley you are Sooo bad.
My wife - the personal trainer - comments about about the amount of calories Baby burns every time he runs or jumps
Oh come on now. Who opened the door there on Collison???
Clips leading after trailing by 22!
That was actually some pretty good defense by the Clips
What a big confidence boost this would be for the bench guys going into the playoffs.
Outstanding third quarter by the Clips.
Dudley can't even make a freaking freethrow.. omg..
Duds confidence is under the pavement floor. Yikes. poor guy.
Great job by Clippers for getting back into a meaningless game.
I swear to god if I see a second of Dudley in the playoffs I'm going to throw up. He had a three game stretch a few weeks ago where he looked like he could give *serviceable* minutes in a bench rotation. Not anymore.
Duds is good as done. The Gomes Zone has taken another looking for the team to try and get a big man for him.
Yeah, Dudley needs a confidence boost. I hope he gets it in the 4th quarter. We need all our guys to be in sync for the playoffs. There's a championship to be won!
Good bucket by Willie!
omg.. Guys... Duds is done. its sad.. I actually really really liked the signing.. I was wrong.
thats like a 5 point switch right there..
Bullock's shot is really soft.. I like it.. U can tell the dude can shoot.
Hollins is the worst big in the league.
I wish Bullock was more athletic though.
Man, Dudley is just missing shot after shot.
Duds is 2 for 9 and 0-5 3's.
Finally a bucket for Dudley.
Duds with the confidence building lay up and defensive stop!
Can the clippers just stop having SFs? They all turn to trash when they get here. Lets just always have a 3 guard line up
well... ideally a healthy Granger would start.
With a better handle as well and he could be a monster. He needs to work out with Paul during the off season we don't need him creating much but getting jab move would work.
Hollins is a lil rough sometimes.
awwww... c'mon willie.
If we don't retain Granger, Bullock could really improve and start.
Jamal cannot be stopped.. just feed the beast.
Apperently you have not seen Hasheem Thabeet?
The likes of Festus Ezeli...Bernard James....Melvin Ely!!!

Nice to see Jamal having a great game. 21 points so far with just a few minutes left.
Nice gm , hedo is a pretty good passer and his shooting will come along !! Love this pick up
How does Dudley have only 7 pull up jumpshots on the season? He's 6/7. I think someone screwed up their tracking.
http://stats.nba.com/playerStats.html?P ... tsShooting
Also how does he shoot 62% on layups when he gets like 1 foot of vertical?
Dam it Ralph be quite when JJ shoots
Yeah, Ralph jinxed JJ's free throws, lol.
I think we need to give him some time and see what he does. Unless you mean the picks he sets are weak
Yikes, we gotta limit those turnovers.
What the heck??
I know..it's a game now
Sloppy quarter.
Wtf put them away
Blake with only 4 points in the 2nd half. What happened to him.. and why is this ending so sloppy. one basket puts them away yet they can't get that 1
Damn that last one was sweet by DJ!
finally a basket.. lets just get away with the w. not much time left here
Don't rush the offense
i won't be surprised if this call goes against the clippers. sucks a foul turns out to be a turnover
Wow great dunk DJ !!! How about a free throw contest between DJ and Drumin !!
No foul call WTF??? come on refs.
Dagger by Crawford! Should nogt have needed a dagger at this point.
Game thank you jcross
The SG's had fun in today's game
Wow the refs are terrible calling a "t" on Blake !! Wow
Not happy that Doc couldn't squeeze in 5 minutes for Green who only gets to be in Detroit once per year and has 350 people at game for him.
wow, forgot about that. Yea, he should have given him some burn
Great win for the Clips. Was a bit shaky there towards the end, but they hung on. Too bad Willie didn't get to play in front of his family and friends. I felt bad about that when Ralph and Mike were talking about all those people being there to see Willie play.
It's especially wrong because nobody has endured more up and down role on our team as much as Green and he's always a mentor and a true pro.
Good win. I agree Willie should have gotten some time especially considering he is from Detroit.
Wow Jamel is a classy guy , I see him one day as a coach in this league !! Nice game I will take the win !! On to beat the bobcats !! !!
Perhaps Willie warned his family prior to the game that he may not even get on the court? Oh well. Willie has been such a pro. It's hard to see him not be rewarded for his positive demeanor especially this game, if only for a few minutes. Oh well.
Really impress on the big turk, hedo didn't score but had 6 reb and 1 blk, i'll take that
I gotta hand it to Andre Drummond, that kid is a beast!
Out of the last 3 drafts I don't think there's anybody I'd rather build my team around than Andre Drummond.
Edit: My bad, other than Anthony Davis.
Anthony Davis. The guy who is averaging 20/10/3.
Drummond reminds me of a rich man's DJ. I would probably pick him 2nd and Lillard 3rd.
Including previous drafts it would be:
1) Davis
2) Drummond
3) Paul George
4) Lillard
5) Wall
6) Irving
Good game by the Clips!
Don't worry, I corrected myself. Definitely Davis then Drummond.
When both shooting guards are on, it's basically game over for our oppenents. But it helps when we have big games by Blake and DJ too!
Looking at the box score looks like the bigs n SGs came up big, can't wait to watch this one
Reading some of the reports it really sounds like Dudley's kinda in Doc's doghouse defensively. Not just for this game, but in general. Implication being that he really hasn't picked up the system as well as Doc would like.
http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/stor ... all-season
Don't really mind since that means Dudley gets more rest but Barnes was getting destroyed on D by Josh Smith all game long.
We will trade one of our wings at the deadline, I believe that.
Should motivate him. Heck he shot 3 for 3 today
Definitely possible Dudley is traded by deadline, but should we?
Right now he's decent, but if he can turn it on in the playoffs and play like his PHX days then we'd be dumb to trade him. We are gonna need his 3pt shot regardless if we want to beat the West Elite's.
I find it interesting that BG's rebounding is down since Paul's been out. I don't think it's a coincidence. I think the same thing happened last year. Blake picks up other parts of his game when that happens, including his assists that it seems to take away from his rebounding. May be another good reason to start Barnes, who's a solid rebounding SF. A very good thing DJ has become a rebounding beast.
It must suck for Blake that his teammate is the best rebounder in the game, then again it must be pretty great for Blake that his teammate is the best rebounder in the game. More wins for him.
Hopefully we get to see DJ steal some of Blake's rebounds in the All-Star Game.
It was certainly nice to not get down big after the first quarter. Often time on the road, that is a good sign. The second-ish unit of Crawford, Redick, Dudley, Turkoglu, & Hollins/Jordan did a great job getting stops and scoring in the second quarter to get the lead. Then the starters came in and had a nice 3rd Q. The last 6 minutes weren't good, but the cushion was there.
Excellent games all around. Blake Griffin was aggressive inside, didn't toss the ball out too early, and defended nicely. DeAndre Jordan had another great game 16-21-4 against good some good players inside. DJ got to the right spots on both ends of the floor, and snatched a boatload of offensive boards. Terrific work also by the two shooting guards Redick & Crawford. Not only did they make shots, they made quite a few plays for their teammates. Collison didn't make any shots, but defended well.
Interesting that Barnes started- not sure if it's a one game thing, but probably not. Dudley has had a tough time defending quicker players (i.e. just about all the wings who match up against him, lol). Jared did have a solid game however- hit some shots and rotated well on defense in 18 minutes.
Nice to see JJ getting some practice throwing lobs! They weren't perfect, but they worked.
Good observation. Those are Odom numbers. Lamar was doing everything for us except scoring. But even his anemic scoring was ok because he was so useful in rebounding, defense, and passing. Hopefully Hedo can do that for us if he's not scoring. I only knew Hedo as a shooter, does anyone remember whether defense was a strong suit of his?
The team as a whole has been great at ball movement. Darren is averaginf something like 6.4 APG, Blake 4.75, and while Redick rarely has about 6 APG he certainly made some great passes tonight. All of these assists pretty much equate up to the 11APG that Chris Paul chips in. This is partly why we have managed such a good record despite Paul being absent from the lineup.
6 assists, 2 TO's...not a bad days work for a non-PG.
