Celtic Woman 3: Ireland
The 3rd edition of the Celtic Woman series
Availability: In stock.
Product Description
The third volume in the series essentially repeats the formula of the first two, with mostly Irish music performed by gentle female singers, several of them very well-known. It's hard to fault, since the performances are uniformly excellent, and the material is definitely time-tested and proven - it's impossible to criticize songs like "The Star of County Down" and "Down by the Salley Gardens," for instance. And with singers like Mary Black, Cathie Ryan, and Maura O'Connell, you're not going to go wrong either.
Available digitally only as full album.

I don't agree with your analysis of Blake Griffen, the West is Deep when it comes to Power Forwards, almost every team has a Good to Great Big Man, so Blake would look bad on D some nights, but if we trade one of the Top 3 PF in the league for a SF who is never in great condition, who is a volume shooter and isn't really great on Defense as well then how smart would that make us. Why would anybody ever Trade a 24 year old 3x All Star, and one gets better every year. NAW.... I would SMH at a trade like that. Blake is Block Buster, but he has more game then you described, an Average Rebounder lol, you lost me with that line.
I highly doubt this rumor would ever happen. Blake Griffin is as untouchable as Chris Paul pretty much, arguably even more so. Carmelo Anthony or his agent probably started this "rumor", lol.
You're right, he is a pretty good rebounder. He's a tenacious player and I respect him for that. Sorry
I doubt it'll happen but I heard it was thought about. The owner wants to get a good TV with Fox and I heard that he was thinking swapping BG for Melo could help, but as far as I know Blake and Cp3 and DJ are Untouchable.
I sincerely hope that the Clippers don't entertain this idea, I'd turn in my fan hood after years of toiling away in mediocrity. Drafting BG was the best thing to ever happen to the Clippers franchise. The only two I consider trading him for play the 3 reside in Miami and Oklahoma City.
Something this major will not be done during the season by the clippers..
why trade for melo when we can probably sign when he hits free agency
THIS THREAD IS SO DUMB. Are you kidding me???
Yes. I didn't read the OP but the title says DUMB all by itself. Melo is a big star but he is also a ball stopper. Blake is younger and has more potential, end of conversation IMO.
If we also get Shumpert and Hardaway Jr. I may consider it, MAY.
I don't think NY would want to do that.
Yeah, I have stayed with the Clips through a lot as most of have; but this would be a pretty low blow. Carmelo is one of those guys that might come and go where Blake is more like Paul George and has some loyalty to the team. If we start mentioning how much Blake has helped change the culture here and made our Clips relevant, where Melo just left the Nuggets high and dry and is now willing to do it to the Knicks I'd be disappointed in any Clip fan who wouldn't pass on Melo.
From a basketball standpoint it doesn't make sense to me, we know what Melo is and he is not going to change his game anytime in the next ten years. Blake is continually improving and is already top 3 among PF's in my opinion. We have a potential Karl Malone like player, where Melo is always going to be a ball stopping scorer that can rebound well for a 3.
From a business standpoint it doesn't make sense to me, Blake has made the All-star team every year based on primarily on popularity. Blake is younger and is much easier to advertise with than Melo. Melo is only really popular amongst Basketball fans, my girl loved Blake before she ever knew anything about basketball and would have no idea who Melo is.
why trade blake griffin when carmelo is an expiring contract they have no leverage trade crawford,barnes, dudley, reddick and dj and 1st rounder for carmelo, chandler, shumpert, world peace and kenyon martin
Bg, just like Marc...errr...Melo, endorses the Jordan Brand.
Bleacher report...Go figure.
Sterling will NEVER trade Blake for anybody unless its Lebron
I have been watching this team since 1989 but really die hard since maybe 1994. This would be the absolute worst move that DTS could ever make as an owner, and he has done some dumbshi* things before.
But I think if we just take last night for example,it shows Blake is a force when he needs to be and why would anyone trade away their franchise/money making/ fan favorite (listen to the cheers when 32 is introduced at every game)/ team mindset changing player for someone who may or may not decide he wants to play for us. Lakers can have Melo.
As a Clippers fan and a Knicks fan I would hate this. Melo won't make this team better + he is older and has no upside left and as a Knicks fan I want draft picks for Melo.
Too bad the Knicks franchise is too dumb and inept to rebuild properly. Also no draft picks till 2018 or something ridiculous.
Blake is a huge merchandising asset, I could see a franchise keeping him for that alone.
Maybe that is why the Lakers re-signed Kobe. They know he won't make the team win but he is probably still the biggest name in BBall outside the US.
nonononon. Blake is still young and improving. Even though I like where Clippers are going I don't see them winning the championship this year, and with that in mind I think it's a much better idea to hang onto Blake and pursue FA next off season. Only moves I think would make sense this year would be trading for/signing a better reserve 4/5 who can defend the post
"Chris Paul is Carmelo at a different position". No, no. I get what they are trying to imply, but their reasons for lack of success are not exactly the same. Part of Melo's problem has been the inability to consistently translate the attention he gets as a scorer to team basketball and creating good shots for the team consistently.
Also just no in general. This team is now 7th in Drtg with a proper defensive system and the 2nd best 3PT defense. There's no need for the Clippers to be making a move like this. Biggest needs are a shutdown wing defender and a very solid backup 4/5.
Dream in terms of floor spacing, but what in terms of defense?
This teams next level ability is going to be because of defense, not floor spacing.
Good god what a terrible quote and a terrible article. Melo isn't even at the same level as Chris Paul and has never been the moment CP3 entered his 3rd season in the nba.
as ridiculous as this rumor is, I would actually make that trade if I were the clippers. I'm thinking Blake's upside won't be as high as people on here think it is. Carmelo pretty much demands a double team every game, which takes pressure off CP3 -- which frees him up to be great in EVERY game.
Carmelo will also get the "cp3 bump" which shoots up his fg %, just like we've seen for matt barnes, chauncey, etc etc.
I think we'd be real contenders for the title more so with Melo than blake, I just don't think he has it in him to be a GREAT players. I think he's more an Amar'e Stoudemire...
New York has no leverage. They'd be lucky to get any big name players in return for Melo.
What made this article dumb was that clippers are "Underwhelming".. Really?
1. We have statistically the 2nd hardest schedule this far, if you count the road
games, and the hardest if you look at our opponents record.
2. Injuries - 3 critical injuries, including our backups - backup. I mean
come on. Starting 2 guard averaging 15ppg. out.
3. Adjusting to a new system.
4. We've beatin the top teams in the west some twice, including the SPURS.
I'd say in spite of all this 17 -9 is pretty good. Mike smith said he thought
if we could get to 17-8 during this stretch we'd be in prime position to make
a run for the west.
And here we are pretty close to that.
Although this trade would be dumb for a million reasons. I just wanted to go in on that.
Good day
Your post just isn't true.
Let me teach you basketball 101.
1. Carmelo has been a failure everywhere he has went. Do you know why? Because he is a scorer who needs to ball in his hands to be effective.
With a PG like chris Paul you need wings to play OFF THE BALL. Does that make sense?
2. Carmelo demands a double team so it takes pressure off CP3 - This doesn't make any sense. Carmelo getting double teamed doesn't take any pressure of CP3 for the simple fact HE IS THE POINT GAURD.
He is not playing off the ball. CP3 is the one setting up the plays. When Wing players get double teamed it leaves the Post open. When a Post player is double teamed it leaves the Wings open. Get it?
3. Blakes upside won't be as high as people think? Again doesn't make sense. HE is a 3x all-star averaging 20-10 and hasn't reached his prime yet, and his jump shot is improving by leaps and bounds. He rebounding is tenacious. If he wasn't playing next to DJ he'd be top 3 Rebounders in the league.
4. When is the last time a team won a championship without a great low-post player. Huh?? I'll wait... Lakers? Pau Gasol... Miami... Chris Bosh... Celtics... Kevin Garnett. Spurs... Tim Duncan
There is a reason for this in today's game. Basketball today is played inside out. Without a low post scoring threat your dead in the water.
I get where you are coming from. Maybe if this was NBA2k14 I'd agree with you. Chuck up a bunch of 3's with Melo and slash to the basket and be unstoppable.
But in the real world it doesn't work like that.
If you need any more breakdown let me know.
Bleacher report...
'Nuff said.
Ho hum....next.
Blake griffin and Chris Paul ceiling and worth is higher than Melo for multiple reasons. what separates them are the intangibles that they bring and the ability to make players around them better. Carmelo doesn't have that ability. Carmelo is better suited as a teams second or third player on the roster who needs a leader (player and/or coach) to direct his game and maximize his efficiency. I would not trade Griffin for Melo. But i wouldn't mind if clippers can add Melo to this team to play with Paul and Blake. And yes i know that the concerns of Melo's defense but that why we hire doc rivers right? To implement a efficient offensive and defensive system and a championship pedigree that players would respect and would buy into to his system.
Melo's will opt out next year and just for that friggin simple reason, why in the f#*k would you trade for him.
they said the same thing about Cp3 opting out and sign elsewhere but look what happened
Since it's a Lakerfan starting this thread I compare it to the Lakers trading Kobe a decade ago. CP is our best player but Blake is our salvation, our identity. Not saying Blake is as good as Kobe or ever will be but he's just as valuable to our organization.
There's never been a guy like him in the history of the organization and because of a lot of factors, he's one of the top 2 or 3 players in the league as far as marketing value. National games are largely scheduled before the season. I think we're 1st or 2nd in the league in that regard and obviously we are not considered the best team in the league at this point. Doc Rivers left the Boston Celtics mid-contract to be our coach. CP didn't even entertain other offers before signing a 5 year deal. Almost every player on our roster is underpaid. Our worst contract is probably Mullens and he makes less than a mil per year.
We have high character and talent. We have the best or second best coaching staff in the league. We are probably thee most desirable destination team in the entire league right now.
All this starts with Blake. On paper he might not be the best PF in the game but I guarantee Minny would send KLove + picks over here if it meant getting Blake. His numbers are great but it's not all about numbers. Intangibles on court and off, make him one of the most valuable assets in the league. Melo is not in the top 10 of that list.
I trade Blake for Bron and maybe KD. Nobody else.
In Melo case, I'd hope he would opt out if we were to make an incredibly stupid trade.
no way this trade would ever happen. i'm guessing doc isn't a fan of melo's game.
I'd rather have Luol Deng, Danny Granger or even Trevor Ariza for 1/4 of the price and still get to keep DJ and BG in the front court.
BTW I'm obviously exaggerating about them being 1/4 of the price.
yeah, can you breakdown how you think chris bosh is a "great low post player" ?
wow, i'd trade blake for Klove *if healthy* in a heartbeat. A HEARTBEAT!!
Strictly from an entertainment perspective, the Knicks should trade 'melo back to Denver for Javale McGee and pieces. The combination of McGee's antics and Woodson's unmatched "WTF?" face would make the Knicks must-see-TV for me. I hope Woodson gets another job when NY cans him... that face is priceless.
I'd never trade a POWER Forward for a Forward who has zero power and can't play defense.
K Love's great, but I don't think he's a winning PF. Zero intangibles except for his outlet passes which are cool, but I'd rather have my PF on the other end of the outlet pass 10 times out of 10.
Love puts up A LOT of shots. 26 last night! And watching some of the game last night...and really every T Wolves game I've seen. So many moments where he doesn't even TRY to play defense. It's downright shocking. I mean, Blake will make mistakes on defense, but we see him put some effort.
I suppose Love can be coached to be a better defender, but ironically, that may have a negative impact on his rebounding and offensive game. After all he won't be camped out in the paint when he's defending his man at the 3 point line.
If they added in 2 1st round picks I'd still laugh in their face. Ryan Gomes looked like he was worth 4mil per year when he played in Minny. He was actually $0.04 per year.
That Is a loser organization with a roster that looks stacked on paper and they're below .500. And every time we go head to head with them, Blake kills him.
Same goes for Aldridge or any other PF in the game today. Would not consider it.
How can championship contending team trade one of their key guys midway into the season? Ain't happening.
That being said, I would trade BG for Love.
I remember Stephen A saying a trade with Griffin would only happen if Blake kept on playing bad, But we just saw his prowess last night. So..... no trade
Here's the thing: If we trade anyone for Melo, we would be falling into the same trap as the Knicks, who trade basically half their team to get him from the Nuggets.
If we absolutely must sign him, then it's best to wait for him to be a free agent.
In any case, I wouldn't have Melo in his current state on this team, even if he was a free agent.
melo is not a championship type player..... he's proven that.... knicks are the old nuggets team (with a few missing pieces) no thank you....
waste of thread space.
Knicks problem is that they sign and acquire a bunch of players that thrive best witha dominant leader in a point guard and Raymond Felton isn't fitting in that roll....Melo, Amare and Tyson chandler had there best success when they had a point guard that can lead them and utilize them. Melo got his furthest in the playoffs when the nuggets got a point guard in Billups. Amare got his furthest when he had Steve Nash running point. Tyson chandler played with CP3 and dominated in pick and roll lobs. Also Tyson played with Jason Kidd on the mavericks. the pieces just don't fit on the knicks for the system they run.
exactly!! and if carmelo want to win he will come to us without losing blake, then we have a real big 3 and one half (jordan is just half sorry)
On this team I'd take Jordan any day. DJ is a rebounding machine. Melo can't function unless the ball is in his hands. He would be co-second option with BG. CP is the bulldog in the pack. Unless Melo can give is 11 Reb/game No Way
If Kobe wanted to win another ring he should have signed with us at MLE true but CP would run the show. Dudley for Melo. Nope not worth the tax.
How about the Lakers?
Blake showed last night that singly covered he's unstoppable by most players. He played with an intensity I've never seen.

On Monday I wrote about John FAIRS, my 4x great-grandfather. I mentioned that his headstone records that he died on the 11th March 1846 and that the parish register recorded that he was buried on the same day.
I was rather suspicious of this, it seemed plausible that he died and was buried on the same day but it seemed unlikely and incredibly efficient of all the people involved, including the people who had to dig the grave.
A much more likely explanation was that one of the records was wrong, either the wrong date had been carved on the headstone or the officiating minister had recorded the wrong date in the burial register.
Given that John died aged only 41 years I felt that there could be an interesting story behind his death, so I decided it would be worth ordering a copy of his death certificate. I was astonished to receive the certificate in the post today, having only ordered it on Monday evening (excellent service from the GRO and the Royal Mail).
The certificate revealed the truth, John FAIRS died on the 7th March 1846 not the 11th March, so the inscription on his headstone is wrong.
Disappointingly the cause of death was not very exciting, the cause given is "Acute Gastritis 48 hours" according to Wikipedia Gastritis is "an inflammation of the lining of the stomach". Not particularly exciting or unusual, Wikipedia does also say that "the main acute causes are excessive alcohol consumption", so maybe it was alcohol that caused his premature death?
Regardless of the cause of his death, this story does prove one thing, even if it is carved in stone it is not necessarily true.

A little over a year since I started walking the South Downs Way I was back in Eastbourne, East Sussex starting it all over again. This time I was accompanied by my wife, who has decided that she would also like to walk the South Downs Way (SDW) this year. This year I had planned to take a week off work and walk the route in one go, but for now we will be walking it together over several months.
The route is now quite familiar to me, I have only walked it a few times but have revisited it in my mind and in my digital photo albums many times. I won't go into the details of the route here, beyond the basics: head west from Eastbourne up onto the hills, across Beachy Head, past Belle Tout lighthouse, drop down to the National Trust cafe and bar at Birling Gap, up to the start of the Seven Sisters, up and down the Seven Sisters several times and finally down to the Cuckmere River and along to Exceat.
Weather conditions were generally good for walking, probably more a little more sunshine than cloud with a few very light (and brief) showers. All in all it was a good walk, the Seven Sisters didn't cause me any real problems and although my legs and feet were tired they soon recovered.
I hope to try to make this walk of the first section of the South Downs Way an annual occurrence, at least for as long as I am capable of completing it. For now though I will leave you with a few photos.

Two projects garnering controversy during the Augusta Regional Transportation Study Policy Committee meeting on Thursday were met with different fates, as a plan to widen Hitchcock Parkway was delayed and a proposed Silver Bluff Road project was moved forward.
The vast majority of the crowd focused on urging the committee to reshape or even drop the proposal to expand Hitchcock Parkway, many stating the widening would do much more harm than good.
The proposal is to widen 4.8 miles of Hitchcock Parkway from Silver Bluff Road to Jefferson Davis Highway from two to four lanes to accommodate more traffic.
The project is about three decades in the making and is being designed by the S.C. Department of Transportation.
Several residents during Thursday's meeting repeated sentiments expressed at earlier public hearings, particularly concerns over cost and the actual need to implement the proposed changes.
Aiken resident Bob Gilbert described the project as "irresponsible" and said the idea of accommodating the road for more traffic was a "theory trumping reality."
Mike Rubin, who owns property near the proposed changes, received applause from the approximately 65-person crowd after he told the committee it should focus on low-cost improvements instead of advancing the nearly $26.5 million project.
After hearing the backlash, ARTS Committee Chair Fred Cavanaugh, who also serves as Aiken mayor, stated that he would like to see members of Aiken City Council and Aiken County Council examine the Hitchcock Parkway issue and provide a specific directive to the committee.
The committee plans to reconvene for its regularly scheduled meeting on Aug. 1.
The decision to move the project forward must be approved by the committee, according to committee member and Aiken City Manager Richard Pierce.
He explained that an alternative plan is currently being developed by an engineering firm contracted by the City and he hoped a presentation could be made to the public soon concerning the other proposal.
However, it was noted that the alternative plan would likely also be capacity driven and involve four lanes, the same way the current SCDOT plan is designed.
SCDOT Project Manager Kevin Gantt said the project would help ease traffic flow through the parkway, which is expected to continually increase in the future.
Approximately 18,000 vehicles travel down Hitchcock Parkway daily, he said. The road is built for 16,000 vehicles a day, and it's projected that in less than two decades, that number will increase to about 28,000.
In other business, the committee decided to advance proposed corridor improvements to Silver Bluff Road on a 5-2 vote and agreed to increase the total budget for the project from $528,000 to $1.5 million.
Cavanaugh said the budget increased because SCDOT provided a new estimate after completing a full plan for construction.
Committee members C.H. Williams, mayor of Burnettown, and Noelle Shealy, a Burnettown town councilwoman, voted against the proposal.
The two committee members expressed concerns over the proposal because they felt that by increasing the budget and moving the proposal forward, it would delay the completion of another project, the widening of S.C. 126, a plan that would impact Burnettown.

It's not every day you see something that makes your jaw drop, but today, while watching the video of the largest, most intricate Lego machine I've ever seen, mine did.
The machine, known as the Great Ball Contraption (GBC), was built by a Japanese mechanical engineer in his house over the course of two years -- a total of a whopping 600 hours in construction time.
The monstrous 5 ft x 21 ft (1.5m x 6.5m) machine boasts 17 modules that can process 500 balls for a length of 101.7 ft (31m) at a rate of one ball per second. I know, it's hard to wrap your head around it without checking out the video, below, first.
It's not just the machine's enormous size that impresses fans, but the individual modules themselves, which are described as follows:
The video of the device in action is a whopping seven minutes long, but if you're in any way interested in Lego and mechanical engineering, you really must check it out.

There are several ways to handle adversity.
One can run from it, change course to avoid it or find a way to overcome it, among other options. Former Silver Bluff football standout Cordrea Tankersley battled it head on, and he's poised to reap the benefits of his decision this fall as a member of the Clemson football team.
Tankersley, a quarterback for the Bulldogs, originally signed with Clemson on National Signing Day in 2012, but he failed to qualify academically.
After a semester studying and playing defensive back at Hargrave Military Academy in Chatham, Va., he's rectified that problem. With his grades where they need to be, he signed with the Tigers again this year.
Tankersley said he's excited to have the chance to finally prove that he's the Division I talent that the Clemson coaches saw during his days in Petticoat Junction.
"It feels great," he said Friday of qualifying. "I have a second opportunity to go out and showcase my talent."
While Clemson fans will be mainly interested in his development as a player, Tankersley pointed out that he also gained knowledge off the field and in the classroom that will be useful at a four-year school. In fact, that's the part of his prep school experience that he chose to highlight above all else.
"Academically ... it was a great experience because I learned a lot that I can use at the next level," he said.
On the field, Tankersley said he learned how to be a cornerback, which is where he's expected to play for Clemson. In fact, he said he'll be in competition for one of the Tigers' starting corner positions this fall.
"That's where I'm pretty much more comfortable at because that's where I played 100 percent of the time at Hargrave," Tankersley said.
He was mainly known for his offensive prowess in high school while also playing safety. But the former Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas selection didn't waste any time adjusting to his new position. In the prep school Tigers' season opener against Southern Tech, Tankersley returned an interception for a score. Later in the season, he recorded three tackles against Navy's junior varsity squad and its option attack, proving his aptitude in run defense.
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has been impressed with what he's seen from Tankersley.
"He's a guy that I think has a chance to be a really, really, really good player," Swinney said at a Wednesday news conference. "He's got great size for the position."
It's that size that makes Tankersley an asset to the Tigers, who had depth issues in their secondary down the stretch of the 2012 season. They closed with a Chick-fil-A Bowl win over LSU. But even in that game, wide receiver Adam Humphries was prepared to play defensive back.
"We had a lot of needs in the secondary, and the biggest thing is ... we got in a bind this year to the point that we had to take Adam and train him up," Swinney said. "We just got very thin; we lost some guys for the year. ... We just felt like we had to have some guys who could play early."
As a result, Clemson signed seven defensive backs, including Tankersley, in this year's class of 23 signees.
While Swinney said that he and his coaching staff were looking for some volume, there were traits they were seeking in potential Tiger defensive backs. First, they were looking to fill the necessary depth at cornerback and safety. But they were also looking for versatile players that could play both, in addition to the nickelback position.
"This was a big need for us, and we didn't just want to sign guys," Swinney said. "We wanted to sign guys that fit specific needs in the secondary, and we got a couple of those guys that offer us some flexibility."
Tankersley said that's where he comes into the picture. While he'll start his career at Clemson as a 6-foot-1, 195-pound cornerback, he said coaches have told him his size may one day allow him to move to safety.
His past as a successful, athletic quarterback is also a positive, Tankersley said.
"They're glad that I played quarterback in high school because I can learn the plays and move around," he said, referring to his ability to fill many roles in the secondary.
As for playing time, Swinney confirmed Tankersley's assertion that depth chart slots in the Tigers' defensive backfield will be open for competition this fall, even with star 2013 recruits like Mackensie Alexander in the mix.
"The plan is to play half of them, redshirt half of them," Swinney said of the first-year defensive backs. "Who they're going to be, I don't know. They're going to have to figure that out."
While he won't be able to get into Clemson for the spring semester or spring practice because of the time it took to be deemed eligible by the NCAA, Tankersley said the rigors of college life won't be a hindrance to his success on the field. He said waking up early for practices or workouts won't be shock to his system after his time in the military structure of Hargrave.
"Waking up in the morning shouldn't be a problem," he said. "It was a good idea to go there."

LOS ANGELES � Harry Carey Jr., a character actor and former Durango-area resident, died Thursday, Dec. 27 at age 91.
Carey lived in the Durango area from 1989 to �93. His career spanned more than 50 years and included such John Ford classics as �She Wore a Yellow Ribbon,� �The Searchers� and �The Long Gray Line.� Later in life, he appeared in the movies �Gremlins� and �Back to the Future Part III.�
Other notable acting gigs include Westerns such as �3 Godfathers� and �Wagon Master,� as well as numerous episodes of television series such as �Gunsmoke,� �Have Gun will Travel� and even the movie �Exorcist III� and the series �Knightrider� and �The Streets of San Francisco.�
Carey was born on his actor-father�s Santa Clarita Valley, Calif., ranch in what became the town of Saugus in northern Los Angeles County.
The town was near the better-known cities of Newhall and Valencia which, along with Canyon Country, merged into one town called Santa Clarita. Newhall is home to a ranch once owned by Western silent film star William S. Hart and became famous, in part, for having its own herd of buffalo.
Saugus also hosted a cowboy gathering, now called the Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival, at late singing cowboy Gene Autry�s Melody Ranch Motion Picture Studio.
Because of that area�s ruggedness, studio crews filmed many scenes for Western films there, as well as other movies and television series such as �The Twilight Zone.�
Carey worked for famed director John Ford in a number of films. He recounted his adventures with the director in his 1994 memoir, Company of Heroes: My Life as an Actor in the John Ford Stock Company.
Carey said that while he lacked the leading-man stature of longtime friend and co-star John Wayne, Carey�s boyish looks and horse-riding skills earned him roles in many of Ford�s films.
He and fellow character Ben Johnson famously learned to stand simultaneously on two galloping horses � a trick known as roman riding � for the 1950 film �Rio Grande� starring Wayne.
�My journey has been that of a character actor,� he wrote in his memoir. �I�ve worked with the great and the not-so-great. But mostly I�ve worked with men and women who loved their profession, and who, like me, had kids to raise and houses to pay for.�
Carey was the son of silent-film Western star Harry Carey Sr. and actress Olive Carey. He was born May 16, 1921, on his family�s ranch and graduated from Hollywood�s Black-Foxe Military Institute.
During World War II, he served in the Navy in-theater and then was posted stateside and worked with Ford on films for the Navy.
A Bayfield artist created a sculpture of Carey some years ago.
He is survived by his wife, a son, two daughters, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
Herald Staff Writer Robert Galin contributed to this report.

COLUMBIA — Essie Mae Washington-Williams, the mixed-race daughter of one-time segregationist Sen. Strom Thurmond who kept her parentage secret for more than 70 years to avoid damaging his political career, died Monday. She was 87.
Vann Dozier of Leevy's Funeral Home in Columbia said Washington-Williams died Monday. A cause of death was not given.
In addition to two other children born from his second marriage, Thurmond was the father of J. Strom Thurmond Jr., 2nd Judicial Circuit Solicitor, and S.C. District 41 Sen. Paul Thurmond.
Washington-Williams was the daughter of Thurmond and his family's black maid. The identity of her famous father was rumored for decades in political circles and the black community.
But not until after Thurmond's death in 2003 at age 100 did Washington-Williams come forward and say her father was the white man who ran for president on a segregationist platform and served in the U.S. Senate for more than 47 years.
"I am Essie Mae Washington-Williams, and at last I am completely free," Washington-Williams said at a news conference revealing her secret.
She was born in 1925 after Thurmond, then 22, had an affair with a 16-year-old black maid who worked in his family's Edgefield home. She spent years as a school teacher in Los Angeles, keeping in touch with her famous father.
While Thurmond never publicly acknowledged his daughter, his family acknowledged her claim after she came forward. She later said Thurmond's widow, Nancy, was "a very wonderful person," and called Strom Thurmond Jr. "very caring, and interested in what's going on with me."
Several members of Thurmond's family didn't respond to messages seeking comment Monday.
Washington-Williams was raised by Mary and John Washington in Coatesville, Pa. Her world changed when she was 13 when Mary Washington's sister, Carrie Butler, told Essie Mae that she was her mother.
Washington-Williams met Thurmond for the first time a few years later in a law office in Thurmond's hometown of Edgefield.
"He never called my mother by her name. He didn't verbally acknowledge that I was his child," Washington-Williams wrote in her autobiography, "Dear Senator: A Memoir by the Daughter of Strom Thurmond."
"He didn't ask when I was leaving and didn't invite me to come back. It was like an audience with an important man, a job interview, but not a reunion with a father," she said in the book released January 2005.
It was the first of many visits between Washington-Williams and her father.
He supported her, paying for her to attend then-South Carolina State College at the same time Thurmond was governor. He also helped her later after she was widowed in the 1960s.
"It's not that Strom Thurmond ever swore me to secrecy. He never swore me to anything," she wrote. "He trusted me, and I respected him, and we loved each other in our deeply repressed ways, and that was our social contract."
Washington-Williams watched from afar as Thurmond ran for president as a segregationist for the Dixiecrat Party in 1948, saying "all the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the army cannot force the Negro race into our theaters, our swimming pools, our schools, our churches, our homes."
Washington-Williams recalled once asking her father about race.
Thurmond defended his beliefs as part of the "culture and custom of the South," she wrote.
"I certainly never did like the idea that he was a segregationist, but there was nothing I could do about it," Washington-Williams said in 2003. "That was his life."
Thurmond later softened his political stance and renounced racism. But he never publicly acknowledged his oldest daughter or the active role he played in her life. Thurmond and his first wife, Jean, were married in 1947; she died in 1960. They had no children. He had four children with his second wife, the former Nancy Moore, whom he married in 1968.
Washington-Williams was left unsettled by her father's death. At her daughter's encouragement she decided to make her story public.
"In a way, my life began at 78, at least my life as who I really was," Washington-Williams wrote. "I may have called it 'closure,' but it was much more like an opening, a very grand opening."
A statue of Thurmond on the State House lawn was originally cast saying he had four children. Thurmond's family agreed to have Washington-Williams' name added.

great case study sir randy...much appreciated!
i am now in slide 9...
i am now on slide 4 of this class presentation...
another point to learn with the case study of smart sensor development...thanks alot...
good evening sir randy, here i am again for day 3 class lesson...
Thank you Randy!
Very interesting case study
Magnetic field, proximity, positioning...
Great to have access to the recorded sessions!
Missed the live lecture
Taking the class offline
thank you
still catching up
Identifying suppliers - search the Design News articles archives. Lots of times there are articles on devices - from sensors to microcontrollers and more, that show good comparisons with background information.
thank you Randy,
Viewing day 3
Picking up day 3
thanks randy
I am mainly interested in all the differnt sensors availible
Looking forward to another great lecture
Picking up day 4
I'll try to be on next lecture, bbl
Really, TI got with WEBENCH is best acquisition from NS. It's quick way to use knowledges.
Thanks Randy, nice lection and presentation, very usefull links presented too.
thanks Randy, good presentation
well, beter late than never
Thank you Randy, see you tomorrow!
Thanks, great info!
That's going to do it for today. Thanks for attending.
Q: What is the control technique in case when temperature does differentiate the accuracy of sensor readings in the pressure measurements?
You normally either need to monitor a parameter that changes reasonably linearly with temperature or have an additonal internal or external temperature sensor.
Good info! Also, regarding himidity sensors, will this be a topic of discussion on Friday?

Q: What is the control technique in case when temperature does differentiate the accuracy of sensor readings in the pressure measurements?
@Deb C: how can I send you my gift card ?
It is not in the presntation but you can see sevral choices at:
Q. What factors I need to consider to choose, for example, a pressure sensor for a medical application?, Can I choose any sensor from the market or it has to be special?. Thank you.
Sensing in medical applications can pose a few callenges. The first level is whether the sensing is external or internal. Obviously thermometers can address internal (but not invivo) measurements rather easily. Internal blood pressure measurements have specifcations that have been developed. Some sensor suppliers caution against the use of their products in medical applications.
Bye work callls
That would make it make more sense as you noted the premise was based on a filter for a computer filter not a fillter in a pneumatic or hydraulic system.
I agree with what Douglas stated below
Since you are checking pressure drop across a filter, what is the system pressure.
This would determin the common mode presure the sensor must tolerate.
Good point. I should have stated air filtering in a computer system. If this was a high pressure water flow application, the common mode pressure would certianly been a top level cosnideration and it would have added packaing complexity to the decision. For air filter monitoring, many pressure sensor suppliers address this type of application and the comon mode pressure is not normally an issue.
Since this application was a differential pressure measurement.
The system pressure was never considered,
which determins the common mode range of the sensor.
This actually ends up being the greatest limiting factor in a differential sensor choice.
I like the case studies. It is interesting to see thought process of other engineers.
Good info! Also, regarding himidity sensors, will this be a topic of discussion on Friday?
thanks randy, great job!
Thanks Randy and Cherle. Great lecture and very useful. THanks a lot.
By the way, where is my Starbucks card?
Thank you Randy and Chuck.
Thanks Randy & Chuck
Thanks Randy, Chuck
Thank you for a useful lot of information!!
What is the link for the live chat page?
Thanks Randy & Chuck.
it's a great pt, Thanks a lot
Thank you
Thank you Chuck and Randy.
Thanks Randy
thank you Chuck
Great lecture Randy, Thank you
Thkx for the bells and whistles Randy & Chuck.
Good info, Thanks
of interest is to be able to scale products to size
when doing differential measurements, you must consider common mode pressure the sensor will see.
depends on application.
I would prefer one with signal conditioning.
Have not used these components yet. Unsure which conditioning option I'd use.
Prefer internal conditioning if it meets the technical specs and price goals.
Preference for built in signal conditionning
I would like the option of with and without signal conditioing. Call me greedy.
Most cases have internal signal conditioning as it has tighter tolerances, makes integration easier. Some specific cases external for more flexibility.
I need the flexibilty gained my adding my own conditioning
primarily depends on the end target goals, typically driven by cost, but at times other specification requirements drive the choice.
Sometimes is better with conditioner and sometimes is better to add
mostly to have the signal conditioning, for a fair cost, but for some applications it is better to add it yourself
Depends on my application and specifications.
Manufacturer websites mostly.
Prefer internal
Yes. TI website is a very good place. I just take their AFE device for my OH sensor.
When searching for suppliers, I proceed with caution, looking at availability, lead times, etc. So, basically my search mirrors Randy's approach for any type of supplier part.
I would like the option
Similar issues temp, availability accuracy.
Web search/specs/trade magazines (like Design News !)
I would like use Digikey too.
@LEE337 great screen name
Besides available parts not showing up in searches, not in stock, minimum quantities, and not available in packages I want to use.
*none so far
You haven't considered common mode pressure
N/A so far
accelerometers (g-forces), temps, other.
missing data as welll as incorrect data. Also ambiguity as in temp range but no scale F or C given.
Same as Randy, temp range not as specified in seach. Also items not in stock, MOQ, long lead times.
I like using the Digi-key web site; no problems to mention
mostly conversion between different measurement systems
Q: How temperature does differentiate the accuracy of operating pressure?
how specifications, e.g. accuracy is determined/defined.
Randy expressed it well -- minimize the rejection criteria.
Use the broadest search possible at the beginning.
Pretty much like Randy said, keep search criteria as wide as possible and do your own elimination of selections.
This would determin the common mode presure the sensor must tolerate.
I will have to think about it
Sorry late response, temperature, pressure and load.
Internet searches
I will check with other engineers on who they like if it involves technology I am not very familiar with, but usually default to web.
Colleagues and supply management...
Search on the Internet for Manufacturers.
mostly the same, but sometimes I also begin from relevant Patent documents and their holders.
In addition to web and magazine articles, etc. word of mouth. samples
No, just regular suppliers and peers
I attend a lot of conferences and seminars, along with the listed recommendations.
Device manufacturers often have seminars you can attend. I found some suppliers and device manufacturers this way.
Email distributors for possible suggestions.
before searching the web, ask colleagues who are more experienced
DigiKey tool bar. ;-)
access network of peers
Temp, press, humid
TPMS (temperature - pressure monitoring systems) and proximity sensors are also some we are working on

Jefferson Elementary School has received three grants from Public Education Partners this summer – one to purchase science materials for gifted students and the others for two teachers to obtain iPads as technology resources.
Ellen Cotton serves as the instructor for the Gifted and Talented program for grades three through five that serves Jefferson and other Area 3 schools.
The new materials she is obtaining will benefit Gifted and Talented programs in schools throughout the county, she said.
"We are excited to have the opportunity to provide the gifted students with the highest-quality curriculum available and sincerely appreciate the support of PEP," Cotton said.
Fourth-grade teachers Renee Enlow and Shannon Ennis are obtaining iPads that can provide a range of activities for science and other content areas – attainable through the iPads and free apps.
All the Jefferson teachers will get iPads for use in 2013-14, said Principal Becky Wilson. She is using federal Title I funds for those purchases.
Savannah River Remediation also donated a grant that will provide funding for some Apple TVs, allowing teachers to create hubs for the iPads that can wirelessly put student and teacher work on a classroom SmartBoard for all to see.
"Look at the world around us," Wilson said Monday. "I have two kids in school, and, if they want to know something, they can find YouTube and apps. There are so many opportunities, such as science apps that can give students the scenario of a lab and are so much more affordable."
Such organizations as PEP are known as Local Education Foundations – nonprofits that provide advocacy for public education.
"PEP is very happy to able to able to fund some of these very needed and important programs," said Director Jeff Howell in a email.
Apps available through the iPads can tap into new Common Core academic standards used by nearly all states throughout the nation.
"The teacher becomes more mobile and can have small groups or one-on-one work," Enlow said. "The technology adds more excitement for kids who have grown up with it. But it's only as good as what a teacher can do with it. It doesn't take the place of good, sound teaching in the classroom. It just becomes a resource."

OK it is going to be one of those games. Can not defend a 3 point shot better than what DC did on that last three attempt by Lilard.
strong effort so far considering much respect. Dudley not taking the bigger role well tonight.
Well, Doc did say he still wants to win the game with whoever is on the floor. It's a good test for our bench, that's for sure.
I would like to see Danny Granger get some burn..
Looking at lillard on the bench he knows this game means nothing and he's bout to lose to houston.
I've played a lot of highschool ball.. I've always known where the out line was.. how do these NBA players step out so often?
Of course he's going to say that... what else is he going to say, "we're not trying to field a competitive product tonight"?
Good shot Jamal.... get that rhythm back.
people still bet on these games... He can't just say.. no I think were going to lose on purpose.
Earl Watson is so ugly lol
Ahhhhhh seeing Granger back on the sidelines in a warm up
yea I mentioned that earlier in the thread. like twice.
no one said anything about my Gomes>Dudley comment lol
Wow.. I hate Klay Thompson even more now.
Klay is #Jello
Klay Thompson is a beyotch.
Bullock can play some really good D....
Right? That pisses me off... Should fuel Blakes rage.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2031 ... op-so-much
I don't think Dallas defends well enough to beat any of the top Western playoff teams.
Fun game just seeing the bench unit test out what works and what does not. A Davis and Hollins combo would be nice to see.
Is he back?
lol... this game is pretty sad to watch.
Klay is just being his usual stupid self. It'll be all the sweeter when Clips beat GSW.
Big Baby is big down there.
would like to get it to single digets by the 1/2..
Okay hedo... ur not Crawford.
uh oh... Gomer is in.. whoops.. i meant duds..
yawn... I think I'm going to take some Zzquail and knock out
well our bench can't play defense our offense without the help of our starters. cool.
down by 20... lol... hope they don't go down by 40 in the 2nd half.
Our bench should be playing a lot better. Not very happy about this performance.
we might as well go full retard and take Barnes out and put bullock in.
blazers might foul out and force Blazers to play more of their starters.
wish granger was playing.
I want to see the rebound total at the end of this game lol.
This game, while meaningless, is kinda disappointing. I expected the bench to play better than what they've been doing so far. Perhaps the second half will be better.
Granger said he "could have" played tonight... I guess doc is playing it super safe.
lol.. not a bad finish by the Clippers.
Its Jake... from state farm.
damn we got killed on the glass lol. That first quarter was all they needed.
I really dislike Golden state... more than I disliked Griz
So... do you think CP3 and Blake and JJ are at one of their house watching the game together or spending time with their family?
Need one more injury free half.
Crawford might be a problem given how not right he is
That shot looked like Jamal Crawford finally.
There u got Jamal... u can do it!
lol @ turk..
damn.. that means the dud is coming back in.

I'm not even mad... no cp3 no redick.
I won't blame the guy who gave us 40/14/6, but maybe this will have him re-focus on FT's.
Didn't this just happen last game?
Yep you never let Allen out of your sight when he is roaming in the corner..
I ain't mad. That late run made it worth while. Not to mention that BG out shined LBJ. Really proud of BG.
BG for 3!
That's why Crawford should have passed to Blake
true. I think if JJ was in it'd be a different story
Clippers took WAY too much time to foul there.
Good job good effort
**********ATTENTION CLIPPERS************ How about you play the whole game like you did the 4th quarter.
i also try not to assume 100% FT shooting.
Tough loss, but great fight. Blake's 3PT shot doesn't even look bad
whelp. Sasha should've shot there. That was one of the better losses we've had. Great showing from the team (Mostly blake)
Proud of Blake... he is a true superstar. Hopefully the haters will STFU now.
Nice game by Blake showed a lot of heart.
WOW. Great effort by the guys. Love the 4th quarter. Hopefully clips can play like this for a full 48 minute.
Hmm..maybe Sasha should have taken it....and maybe got fouled.... Oh well, nice game and great effort.
Lol @ Sasha Passing up that 3. Should have took the chance.
Sucks... if we would have just made more freethrows we would have won.. oh well.
Proud of the starters tonight. Don't mind the loss one bit.
This times a million the defense needs to kick up to the fourth quater level for 48 mins. If we start games like we do the 3rd and 4th we can beat anyone even when hurt.
Can't really blame the bench either. Yeah, you would like more output from them, but at the same time both backup guards are starting. That is your scoring punch.
Lets just say.... Blake Griffin is a f***** monster..
Blake Just put up 40+ against the defending champions...
Great game was suspecting a loss but very proud of the effort as the game went on. Doc needs to highlight the 4th quarter defense especially to DJ and tell them we can beat anyone even without Paul if we play like this a whole game. CP3 return in the next two games will be nice.
I would say "unlike K Love, Blake didn't do it by hitting three pointers"...but I guess I can't say that. lol
Good effort, even with Blake and Jamal combining for 70+, not having cp and jj proved to much to make up for
Ray Allen 3 won the game lol
Starters did their job, but five points from the bench hurt, and the 20 turnovers and giving up 13 treys didn't help. Redick or Paul in there and you got a different outcome..
Blake outplayed Lebron. Crawford was beastly but no one else showed up. Shame. What a waste.
I thought the Clippers would win...until I heard JJ wasn't playing. Not that JJ was gonna score 30 or anything, but we know how important his presence is to the offense (and defense) overall.
probably the most acceptable loss in franchise history. 5 bench points, no CP3, no Redick, we only lose by 4?!
That bastard doesn't even get excited anymore. He's like
"Another day at the office" 8)
Blake went insane and I loved it. After this game there is no excuse in the world why Reggie Bullock should not be getting at least 5mpg Dudley has lost all confidence on offense.
DJ grabbed all the boards down the stretch.
Well all he needed to score was 5 lol.
Think we are going to be missing Turk for a while as well we need the all star break badly.
Trade Dudley to Pheonix for Bledsoe lol
This is actually not a waste.. Blake scored 43 points 9 off rebound and jamal 31 cut off the lead to 2 points, this will give them experience in a playoff like game down by 19 points against to the champs. I can't wait when CP is back and trade dudley.. Dud did nothing positive in this game
Well, I'm proud of SOME of our guys. Definitely Blake, Jamal and DJ (especially his boards down the stretch). But we needed another big game from DC or Jamal or Matt. But like others have said...not really upset by this. I just don't think we afford to lose to many games. Get back on a winning streak IMMEDIATELY.
I read somewhere that Paul is returning against the Raptors, can't wait to see tonight's game tomorrow, I'm enlightened by our performance without so many good players playing.
And he was completely MIA the entire first half. Point still stands. There is a reason he was -20 this game.
He was closely guarded, not open at all really
who elses tv froze? lol
thats why he should have shot it.. poss 4 point jamal crawford play
Why the **** do we want to hear from Erik Spermwhale?
I remember we had a chance to get Ray Allen and we chose Jamal Crawford.... I am glad we did.
Think the toe injury is starting to get to Collison seems his explosive drive to score does not happen as often since GSW.
Only reason that comes in mind why doc is not playing bullock its because we're going to trade him along with dudley.. He wants bullock to be healthy cuz a lot of team wants him

A recent video shot by a viewer of an Augusta television station shows a man carrying an alligator and placing it in the back of a pickup. His capture of the animal attracted a small crowd of onlookers in a neighborhood in the Jackson area of Aiken County.
The video concerns Jackson Mayor Todd Etheredge, who said people who find alligators in residential areas and want them removed shouldn't handle the situation themselves.
"If you have an alligator in your yard and feel threatened, you should contact the proper authorities and let professionals take care of it," he said. "People see these shows like 'Swamp People' and think, 'Oh, I can do that.' But the stars of those shows are around alligators every day, and they know they are quick and can be aggressive. They're not animals that you should play with, and I would have felt really bad if someone in that video had gotten hurt."
According to Etheredge, alligators aren't spotted inside Jackson's town limits often, but the large reptiles do wander into residential areas there occasionally.
"It happens every few years, usually in the lower areas of town where it is swampy and wet," he said. "It also happens more often during the breeding season (which begins in the spring) because when alligators are looking for mates, they do roam."
Etheredge advised Jackson residents to call law enforcement officials if there are alligators in their communities and they feel threatened.
Bobby Arthurs, chief enforcement officer for Aiken County Animal Control, said alligators usually are found in Aiken County around creeks and rivers, and he also has heard reports about the large reptiles being seen in Langley Pond Park. Alligators also live in Brick Pond Park in North Augusta.
"Alligators can't be domesticated, and they can be very dangerous," Arthurs said. "If they are coming onto your property, you need to stay away from them and keep your small pets away from them. They can exert thousands of pounds of pressure (2,125 pounds per square inch) if they bite you."
Arthurs recommended calling the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources at 800-922-5431 if you want to get rid of an alligator.
"They are responsible for wild animals, and they are most definitely responsible for gators," he said. "At Animal Control, we don't have the expertise to handle them, but we have responded to calls and provided assistance to keep people away from an alligator until a Department of National Resources representative arrived."
But the Department of National Resources doesn't take action in every situation involving an unwanted alligator.
"It depends on the circumstances," said Jay Butfiloski, furbearer and alligator program coordinator for the Department of Natural Resources. "We have two categories, emergency alligators and nuisance alligators."
An emergency alligator is in a place where it won't be able to get back to water soon, Butfiloski explained. It might be in a shopping center parking lot, where it's attracting a big crowd and causes a disturbance. Sometimes one of the large reptiles wanders onto a highway and creates a traffic hazard.
"In those cases, we actually will respond or try to contact one of our alligator control agents to go and remove the alligator," Butfiloski said.
Butfiloski described a nuisance alligator as an animal that is unwanted but doesn't pose any significant threat. An example of such an alligator is one that has wandered into a yard located near a body of water or is basking in the sun in a residential area near a pond.
Those situations "are not emergencies," he said, "so we probably wouldn't send someone out."
In such cases, the Department of Natural Resources will issue the concerned person a permit and a tag that would allow for the removal of the alligator.
"You cannot (legally) possess or attempt to capture an alligator without a permit and a tag from us," Butfiloski said.
When the Department of Natural Resources deals with an unwanted alligator or issues a permit and tag to someone to handle the situation, the goal is to kill the alligator, Butfiloski said.
"We are out of the business of moving alligators because they tend to come back to where they were and, in many cases, they can become a nuisance for someone else," he said. "Typically, you want to shoot an alligator directly behind its head to kill it. You don't have to use a big gun. The 'Swamp People' guys use .22 rifles."

This year I am remembering the six members of the BOXALL family recorded on the war memorial in the parish church at West Dean (near Chichester), Sussex.
Sidney BOXALL's full name was Sidney Charles BOXALL (although some records have him as Sydney Charles BOXALL) and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website provides us with the valuable information that Sidney was the "Son of Arthur and Charlotte Boxall, of 84, The Warren, West Dean, Chichester" and he died aged 22 on the 18th April 1918.
Sidney Charles was baptised on the 5th April 1896 at St. Andrew's Church, West Dean and was the second youngest of Arthur and Charlotte's five children. His younger brother was Frederick Henry BOXALL who I wrote about on Wednesday. Sidney, in common with most of the BOXALLs in West Dean, worked as a farm labourer.
Although Sidney's service record has survived it is very brief, only six pages in total, and two of those relate to the return of his personal effects to his father, so unfortunately it doesn't give a lot of detail on his military service.
He appears to have enlisted on the 20th January 1916 at Chichester, Sussex with the 2nd Battalion Royal Sussex Regiment (regimental number: G/8597), although his medical examination took place a couple of months earlier on the 18th November 1915.
His service record provides no further details on his military service other than his entitlement to the British War Medal and Victory Medal, and the fact that he was killed in action in France on the 18th April 1918. If time permitted I could probably have checked the battalions war diary to find out exactly where they were and what they were doing at the time.
As well as West Dean war memorial Sidney Charles is also remembered at Woburn Abbey Cemetery, Cuinchy, France.
