the wolves tend to start real hot. if I'm not mistaken they rank high among all teams in points scored in the first quarter. I'm not sure what's going on with that team but with a roster of Love, Rubio, Barrea, and Martin that should be a playoff bound team.
I would say Rubio and Pekovic are good defenders, but otherwise the team seems to be of the philosophy that the key to good defense is great offense. Break a teams spirit by shooting lights out in the first quarter and half. If teams can weather that storm, they can beat the T Wolves.
I don't know if we win this game on a back to back..... i hope we do, but I don't know
Our defense will be given a run for their money that's for sure.
I think we will see a lot of Blake-to-DeAndre lobs this game because Minny doesn't have the height to contest them.
Suspecting huge game from Paul I hope someone tells him Lillard or Parker is the best PG. Blake and DJ have to focus on defense.
This one might be tough. T Wolves don't want to fall any further below .500. K Love knows he's been outplayed by BG and his team has lost both times so far. Love is out of his mini slump. They've had a little rest and didn't have to travel between games.
On the other hand, you know BG is hearing all the talk about Love being the best PF in the league. The ESPN panel a couple of days ago suggested (as did the guest on the Questionable Blogger) that were the two players traded, Love would help the Clippers win more games and Blake apparently wouldn't help the T Wolves at all. That crap would motivate me.
But, but, but,you guys,everyone in the media and America KNOWS that Kevin Love is the 2nd coming and is unstoppable. Just ask the idiots stuffing his ballot for the AS game.
I am so so so so so so so so so so tired of hearing about the greatness of Kevin Love. Blake needs to take him down a few rungs.
2nd unit got a lot of the heavy lifting in the 2nd half last night. I suspect our starters will not be too tired to send the wolves back to the woods.
BTW,I don't know how many of you go to the games but you know how they have the Chumash shoot for cash where someone has to shoot a lot of almost 3 pointers and gets 500 bucks for each shot made? Last night is the first time I can recall someone not making a single basket and walked away with nothing.
Oh I agree. To grab 16 rebounds WHILE playing the kind of D Blake played last night was amazing. Admittedly, I haven't seen as many T Wolves games but I've NEVER seen Love play close to that kind of defense. I don't mean to keep slamming Love. Love has ridiculous offensive skills...but he's been given the green light to rest a bit on defense as long as he keeps concentrating on the glass.
Watch Love have his best defensive performance tonight. lol
Since J.J. Redick is a supposed better defender than Crawford, I wonder if Crawford can hold him under 28 points, because he's lit us up for 30 and 28 all ready this year.
I do not want to slam him either. I just want the media to recognize the fact that if you are the best of anything, you play an all around game.
LBJ is the best player in the world and he does it all.
CP is the best PG because he does it all. There are better scorers or better defenders but not all together.
Hopefully BG continues his rampage tonight.
By the way, I know Blake's not perfect on defense...but with Doc coaching, Blake could really be a special defensive player in years to come. IF we don't jump the gun and trade Blake (as some "experts" suggest) and Doc's able to cultivate his young guys. Blake's still a young guy. He's known as a hard worker. He seems to want to be a better all around player. And we see he's gotten better defensively ever year.
If BG wanted to, he could have kept playing like he did as a rookie. Taking the ball for himself. Relaxing on defense in favor of grabbing rebounds. Stuffing stat sheets every night.
Instead, he's improved his defense (even before Doc) even at the expense of his rebounding. He's taken more jumpers when his instinct is probably to go inside. He's sacrificed (some might say too much) some of his own numbers for the team.
But Doc has come at the right time for Blake. Doc has a defensive system that BG seems to understand and is getting better at executing. The more a guy like Blake practices, the more he will be able to master it. With his hustle and athleticism, he and DJ have potential to be the best defensive duo for years to come.
That's a whole lot better than having a guy who spends years NOT playing defense, then asking him to start in his 30's.
By the way, I can't say enough how impressed I am with Blake and DJ's screens. They are being patient with them and really doing the job.
By "him" I take it you mean Kevin Martin?
Yeah, Martin scorched JJ (and Crawford, btw) in both games. They weren't exactly all uncontested. Martin's good and scorched a lot of players this year. Stop pretending JJ isn't a better defender than JC.
The good news is Crawford has had 2 good games against the T Wolves. Hope he has another one tonight.
Is there still time to go get Q Ross??
It needs to be a collective effort. His goofy looking shot is money when left alone. Also, can not foul him.
I'm just messing with you, Specifically you, but I'd don't believe J.J is better or worse than Crawford on D, they're both pretty average, except Jamal does force more turnover's. Also Martin scored most of those points on J.J., Crawford Played mainly the SF position during those game, and I just have the image of Martin hitting shots over Redick like he wasn't even there.
Blake just needs to posterize Love. Like nuts in the face posterize... To end all
this Love vs Blake crazy talk.
Love plays with a garbage team who can't score. He has a big center
who can't rebound. If blake played for Twolves he would have 30-15.
Love has a good set of offensive skills no denying that. But If I wanted
offensive skills personally I'd take Lamarcus Aldridge over love.
Agree with postman, playing on a garbage team does improve Love's stats by a lot.
However, I'd still take Love over Blake now. Love's skills are more polished, but Blake's got way more potential and definitely showing improvement this year..
In Love's tenure with Minny, they've replaced the GM, hired a HOF coach, rebuilt the roster god knows how many times and he's still never even sniffed the playoffs.
At some point, the talking heads will stop making excuses for him.
I'll take insane athleticism from a PF than a 3 point shooter. Blake can change the momentum of a game instantly.
Not to mention what type of fan would say they would trade their franchise player? Is this a new thing?
I doubt back in the day a detroit fan would ever say they would trade for Michael Jordan. I dunno. No loyalty these days.
Blake all the way!
Woo I'm coming back home for the holidays from the bay area today. What is it that I must do when I go back home this time of year? Go to Staples and watch a Clipper game! This will be my first time sitting in the 100's. I can't wait!
Wait...it's at 9:30? Damn. Our team didn't even get 24 hours to prepare.
The Clips are that good they can even do it on 23
Hope so! LET'S DO THIS!
Though they're all different players, but this is like comparing Jabari Parker (already highly skilled) and Wiggins (raw but huge potential).
Your acting like blake isn't skilled. Blake is no longer "Raw Potential".
He has great post moves. A decent jump shot. And athletic ability to
muscle his way into the post.
Have you watched blake this season?
...and his record against Love has been pretty darn good. I hope I didn't jinx anything.
Should be a close game tonight with the boys from Minny. Love (no pun intended) watching 2 of the best at their positions going head to head. Go Blake and Clipps.
Good battles between the two.
http://www.basketball-reference.com/pla ... 2=loveke01
Blake's numbers ain't so bad against that other PF proclaimed better than BG:
http://www.basketball-reference.com/pla ... =aldrila01
LA, IMO isn't in the same class as Blake or Love. One step below.
Blake's improved so much from what he was last year. But he's far from reaching his potential.
He's got power, speed, handles, but rarely applies them all at once, which often gets him bad looks.
His jump shots got better, but I still see him pass away the ball when he's wide open 30-40% of the time. Which means he still isn't confident enough to think that shooting a jumper is a good option.
Willie is such a nice person.
Thank you Willie. Short and sweet.
Lets go!
It is time!
I like our sleeve unis better.
It really bugs me that DJ doesn't put his arms up on defense.
J craw BINGO! X2.
Can not get in foul trouble. DJ needs to defend better. That monster uses his big body, DJ use your length.
I see Paul is back in a mini shooting slump. So annoying
I don't like DJ's defense so far.
Only two links and they both suck!
Does DJ's post defense consist of just watching his man score on every f***** play? he doesn't even try to raise his arms to make it look like he's trying.
Keys: they will pump fake you to death - STAY ON THE FLOOR!
Move the basketball and make these slow bigs of Minn move and get them in some picka and rolls and attack off the pick
Oh yeah and let Jared Dudley shoot more
I can only listen to the game, like old time radio. Grrrr.
Deandre Jordan and Jamal just connected on that same offensive rebound and slash like him a Redick became so fond of
Hmmm...sounds like an awesome dunk. SOUNDS like!
We need to win this to game some ground. The OKC just loss a game against the Raptors.

Henry Charles HEMSLEY was my 2x great-grandfather and was the son of Henry and Charlotte HEMSLEY of the Gun Inn/Farm in Blackboys, Sussex. He was baptised on the 2nd April 1854 at St. Thomas à Becket Church in Framfield, Sussex. He appears to have been the eldest of eleven children born to Henry and Charlotte.
In both the 1861 and 1871 census Henry Charles is living with his parents and younger siblings at Gun Inn/Farm, in 1861 he is shown as a scholar and in 1871 he is recorded as farmer's son, presumably this means he was working on the family farm.
Henry Charles HEMSLEY married Caroline RUSSELL (daughter of Thomas and Caroline RUSSELL) on the 10th November 1877 at St. Thomas à Becket Church. The marriage was after banns and both were recorded as being of full age. On the marriage register entry Henry Charles is recorded as farmer.
Together the couple had nine children, all were baptised at St. Thomas à Becket Church, Framfield.
- Charles William HEMSLEY (baptised 26th January 1879)
- Albert Ernest HEMSLEY (baptised 27th June 1880)
- Henry Herbert HEMSLEY (baptised 31st December 1882) [my great-grandfather]
- Minnie HEMSLEY (baptised 29th March 1885)
- Elizabeth Annie HEMSLEY (baptised 26th June 1887)
- Frank HEMSLEY (baptised 29th September 1889)
- Harry HEMSLEY (baptised 31st January 1892)
- Walter HEMSLEY (baptised 25th February 1894)
- Enorah Caroline HEMSLEY (baptised 26th April 1896)
The family lived in various locations within the parish of Framfield, some of which I haven't pinned down yet. In the 1881 census they are living in Muddles Lane, by 1891 they are at Pound House, Framfield and by 1901 they are living in School Lane, Blackboys.
The baptism of Enorah Caroline in 1896 has the family living at Mountfield Farm. By the time of the 1911 census Henry Charles and Caroline are living in nearby Buxted, Sussex at Stone House Farm with their children Harry and Walter.
Across the census and baptism entries Henry Charles is described variously as a farmer, farm labourer and labourer. It seems unlikely that he ever owned any land but he may well have been a tenant farmer from time to time as well as working for other land owners.
Henry Charles' wife Caroline died in 1912 whilst they were still living at Buxted. Henry Charles himself died on the 24th June 1931, aged 77 years. His entry in the National Probate Index (shown below) reveals that he was living in the nearby town of Uckfield, Sussex (at 50 Alexandra Road).
HEMSLEY Henry Charles of 50 Alexandra-road Uckfield Sussex died 24 June 1931 Probate Lewes 10 August to Charles William Hemsley bricklayer and George Ralph smallholder. Effects £825 19s. 5d.
The first of the executors was his son but I am not sure who George RALPH was, but Henry Charles' daughter Elizabeth Annie had married a William RALPH in 1912, so he may have been related through this marriage.
Although I haven't checked the details in the parish register or found a headstone yet I believe that Henry Charles was buried in Framfield churchyard where his wife was also buried.

Dwayne Courtney can remember a simpler time in law enforcement.
His first sidearm was a six-shot revolver. A walkie talkie was a new device that was a big as a brick – and, as Courtney recalled, about as useful as one, too. And patrol cars had rotating "double bubble" lights that "looked like little bubble gum machines sitting on top of the patrol car," he said.
Courtney has seen the field of law enforcement make many turns during his 31 years as an officer, the last 10 of which were spent as chief deputy for the Aiken County Sheriff's Office. And now, Courtney himself will make a turn and leave the Sheriff's Office to take another job. He'll be the new chief of law enforcement for WSI, which provides security at the Savannah River Site.
"It's been a good ride. It really has," he said, sitting at his desk in the Sheriff's Office.
Courtney, who was born and raised in Aiken, got his start in law enforcement at age 14, working with a local volunteer fire department. After graduating from Aiken High School, he entered the U.S. Army and became a police officer.
In 1982, Courtney completed his military commitment and joined the Aiken Department of Public Safety, where for more than 20 years he worked in narcotics, evidence management, major crimes and death investigations. He became captain of the investigations division in 1999.
In 2003, Michael Hunt, who was running for sheriff at the time, asked Courtney to be his chief deputy.
"It was an upward move for me, going from captain to chief deputy," Courtney said. "This position has afforded me so many great opportunities to move, both personally and professionally."
The chief deputy has daily oversight of all divisions of the agency, including the detention center, according to Courtney. That oversight includes 260 employees, 300 inmates and a budget of about $14 million.
"You're the guy who does the biggest part in the hiring and the disciplinarian," Courtney said. "You're a mother, a father, a brother – you have to be all those things to employees. There are times employees have come in and cried on my shoulder. We've had situations where we had to bury our own. Those are very difficult times, but they're times the chief deputy has to be strong and leaning forward."
Promotion of Capt. Troy Elwell
Capt. Troy Elwell will be promoted to chief deputy beginning on Courtney's last day, April 25. Lt. Eric Abdullah will be promoted to Elwell's position of captain.
Courtney called Elwell a "great up-and-comer."
"Both of them have been with the agency for quite some time," he said. "They're both young visionaries, and I think they'll help bring the agency that much further along with their professionalism."
Elwell said Courtney's wisdom, guidance and direction will be missed at the Sheriff's Office.
"He's been a boss that you can approach on personal matters or business matters," Elwell said. "You get some good advice and good direction. He's always genuine with the way he tells you. Sometimes he tells you something you might not want to hear, but it's what you need to hear."
Final day a tough one
"I'm scared to death of what that final day is gonna be like, emotionally" he said. "The day I announced my retirement, I probably shook worse than I ever have. The following day was filled with a never-ending flow of employees and phone calls and emails and text messages – you know, folks being congratulatory."
Courtney said he'll miss the people most. He added that law enforcement officers have a camaraderie that is often not understood by other professions.
"We have to have each other's back, day in and day out," he said.
Over the past 31 years, Courtney said he's seen many changes in law enforcement, most of which he said were for the best.
"Most agencies had very little, if any, proper control over evidence," he said, recalling a traffic stop during which he recovered a weapon and a large bag of cocaine. His captain told him: "Put that stuff in your wall locker. I'll get it from you on Monday."
"Of course, that would be unheard of in today's society," Courtney said.
While the past 31 years have brought their share of change, Courtney said he is excited about what is still to come – for himself and for the Sheriff's Office.
"I certainly look forward to future growth with the Sheriff's Office, and I'm extremely pleased with the folks the sheriff has chosen to follow," he said. "It's gonna be good. It's gonna be different, but it's gonna be good."

When my wife and I left home it looked like it was going to be a nice day, but the weather soon turned misty and before we had reached the south coast the sun had disappeared and we were beginning to wonder whether we would actually be able see anything as we walked along the South Downs.
For the first couple of hours it was somewhat disappointing, with very limited views. The photo below is of one of my favourite views, Cuckmere Haven, but as you can see the mist is creeping in from the sea. Compare this to the crystal clear view I had just over a year ago when I walked the same stretch of the South Downs Way.
Fortunately the cloud did begin to break up around lunchtime and by the time we left Alfriston it was starting to warm up. There was a slight breeze which helped to keep us still cooler. The mist didn't clear completely, but the views to the north across the Weald were quite good and eventually the views to the coastal town of Newhaven also improved.
Instead of going into a blow-by-blow account of the walk I am going to give you some facts and figures for today's walk:

Congratulations are due to Durango High School�s student council, which has won the National Association of Student Councils� highest honor for the fourth year in a row.
According to a news release, �Nearly 180 high school councils were named National Councils of Excellence. Of those, Durango HS is one of only 163 high school councils nationwide to receive the highly esteemed honor of being named a National Gold Council of Excellence.�
NASC said councils named to its �Gold level� not only met basic criteria such as having a written constitution, regular meetings, a democratic election process and membership in NASC, but that they �demonstrate such things as leadership training for council members, teacher/staff appreciation activities, student recognition programs, school and community service projects, spirit activities, goal setting, financial planning and active participation in their state and national student council associations.�

Jim Glassman is the executive director of the George W. Bush Institute and a contributing columnist for Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine. Check out the August issue for his latest column. I am unabashedly a fan of Mr. Glassman, since he espouses an investing point of view that I embrace. Simply stated, his belief is that, if you are an individual investor, you should hold onto your stocks longer and trade less often. Warren Buffett is a devotee as well, since he said that "Much success can be attributed to inactivity."
Two professors at the University of California at Davis, Brad Barber and Terrance Odean published a study in 2000 in the Journal of Finance titled, "Trading is Hazardous to Your Wealth." A key element in this study was their examination of the records of more than 60,000 customers of discount brokerage firms. They discovered that the most active security traders averaged rates of return that were 30 percent less than those of the average customer, and 36 percent of the average of the overall stock market.
This incidence of trading is a factor in the selection of mutual funds as well. A study by Roger Edelen, Richard Evans and Greg Kadlec found that the average U.S. stock fund expense ratio was 1.19 percent over the period from 1955 through the end of 2006. This trio also found that the trading costs in these funds added another 1.44 percent of expenses, and these trading expenses are difficult to track, since they aren't transparent.
What are we simple investors to do? Well, one solution is to examine a fund's turnover rate. A 100 percent turnover rate would mean that the securities that comprise a stock fund would be sold and replaced every 12 months. Turnover rates are required to be published annually by every fund (I use Morningstar.com, but other sites have this data as well), and this turnover rate is a good way to gauge the trading costs that a stock fund will incur. A low turnover rate generally translates into lower aggregate trading costs.
Glassman's list of high-performing U.S. stock funds with low fees and low turnover rates includes: the Yacktman Fund (YACKX), with annualized returns of 14 percent over the past five years, and its turnover rate is just 7 percent, which means that it holds a stock for 14 years, on average. The Nicholas Fund (NICSX) has a turnover rate of just 25 percent and has average 10.2 percent annualized over the last five years. Check out Morningstar.com for others.
On another topic, it is getting to the point that your cell phone number may be as valuable as your cash or credit card, due to the emergence of a recent phenomenon known as mobile cramming. This sort of thing occurs when a third party signs you up for a service that you were unaware that you were on the hook for. Perhaps you visited a web site that offered to send you your daily horoscope to your cell phone. Following that, you might receive a follow-up text message that says, "Reply stop if you don't want this." Naturally, you think the message is spam, so you delete it, and voila, you have just signed up for these recurring charges that can be $10 each month. If you cell phone bill has multiple pages, you could easily overlook such charges.
It is important to review your cell phone bill each month to ferret out any bogus charges. If you find any, report them to your carrier and request that they block any billing for third parties. John Breyault, a vice president at the National Consumers Leagues in Washington, D.C., recommends that if you have a problem with mobile cramming, report it to the League via their online complaint form at www.fraud.org, and they will share the information with 90 law-enforcement and consumer-protection agencies, include the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission.

JERRY McBRIDE/Durango Herald file photo
JERRY McBRIDE/Durango Herald file photo
Producers from the �Dr. Phil Show� are in talks with the family of Dylan Redwine, the teenage boy who disappeared last year from Vallecito, about appearing on the television show.
�It�s not a maybe, it�s going to happen,� said Mark Redwine, father of the missing boy. �It�s just a matter of getting it coordinated.�
Denise Hess, who has helped coordinate search efforts for Dylan, also confirmed the plans.
�The family is ready to go at any moment,� she said. �We�re waiting on Mark to decide.�
Producers wanted the Redwine family to tape the show this week in California, but Mark Redwine was unable to attend, he said. Now, the producers want to tape on Wednesday or Feb. 27.
It is unknown when the show would air.
Dylan, 14, was reported missing Nov. 19, 2012, from his father�s home north of Vallecito Reservoir. He was visiting his father as part of a court-ordered visitation during the Thanksgiving holiday.
The boy�s mother, Elaine Redwine, and his older brother, Cory, 21, also plan to appear on the show.
Elaine and Cory Redwine have criticized Mark Redwine for what they perceive as a lack of communication and a lack of involvement in the search for Dylan. They held a rally in front of the father�s house last month in an effort to encourage him to become more involved.
Mark Redwine said appearing on the �Dr. Phil Show� could raise awareness about Dylan�s disappearance and reach millions of viewers across the country. But he doesn�t want it to turn into a tabloid feud between family members, he said.
�There is a lot of personal conflict between myself, Elaine and Cory as a group,� he said. �These all go back over time. It has nothing to do with Dylan. I think Dylan missing has magnified that to some degree.�
�I�m not afraid of the truth,� he said, �but what I don�t want to see is it turn into a �Jerry Springer Show.�
�We need to unite for Dylan�s benefit. ... Hopefully, Dr. Phil will take a position where he can address some of those issues and help us as a family focus on what is really important right now. We don�t have time to be pointing fingers and making blame or standing out in front of my house like a bunch of idiots holding this (stupid) rally to call me out.�
Elaine and Cory Redwine were ready to appear on the show this week, Hess said, but Mark Redwine wouldn�t commit to it and didn�t give a reason why.
She was glad to hear he is committed to doing the show.
�(Dr. Phil) has been one of the people that we�ve been aiming for right out of the gate in the beginning in our effort to gain national media attention around this case so that we can get Dylan into the homes of millions of people,� she said. �The more people that know about it, the more people we have looking. So we�re thrilled to have this opportunity to do that.�
Elaine Redwine has appeared by phone to talk to Nancy Grace on her legal-affairs show on the CNN-affiliated Headline News.
Hess said she wouldn�t be surprised if Dr. Phil delves into the family dynamics.
�A lot of people that I�ve spoken to who do watch �Dr. Phil� have said that he goes right in and starts digging for the dirt,� she said. �He�s not afraid to ask the hard questions.�
Mark Redwine said he doesn�t want to place blame.
�Quite frankly, I don�t care who has Dylan or for what reason they have Dylan,� he said. �The fact is that they need to let him go and reach out to somebody in his family. And whether that means dropping him off at the nearest Walmart or the nearest post office or the nearest police station or whatever the case may be, let him go.�

The next pitching coach is….???
As I wrote in a story on Monday, the Reds efforts to hire a new pitching coach are reaching the interviews stage some time this week while Walt Jocketty presides over meetings in Goodyear, Ariz.
A defined list of candidates isn't known and unlike the Astros, which revealed their candidates for their managerial vacancy and the schedule for the interviews, Jocketty and the Reds aren't likely to be as open about the process and will say little until there is a hire.
"We don't have a timetable but we want to get it done sooner than later," Jocketty said on Monday. "When we find the right guy, we'll move on it."
There isn't a shortage of pitching coaches without teams — former A's and Mets coach Rick Peterson expressed his interest already. Former Diamondbacks coach Bryan Price is also out there. As is Chris Bosio, who was the Brewers interim coach this season and until a couple of years ago, was in the Reds minor league system as the coach with Double-A Chattanooga. To the best of my knowledge, former Braves pitching guru Leo Mazzone hasn't worked in baseball since he was let go by the Orioles. Carl Willis was just fired by the Indians but once presided over pitchers like Cliff Lee and CC Sabathia.
Of course, everyone is waiting to see what Dave Duncan does with the Cardinals.
Inside the organization, Ted Power worked with several members of the staff already at Triple-A Louisville. There is pitching coordinator Mack Jenkins. And then there is Mario Soto, who is well liked but has previously resisted the idea of being a full time coach in the Majors.
Of all the candidates, Duncan would likely be the most costly. It'd be like shelling out millions on a free agent player. You have to wonder what implications that would have on the payroll and the ability to add or keep players. Would that be worth it to you?
In the latest installment of "Fans play the GM," who would you hire?
Follow me on Twitter at
5 Comments
I read an article yesterday that suggested some of Dave Duncan's pitchers might want to follow him wherever he landed. The one name associated with this theory was Joel Piniero.
Given the Reds tight budget situation, I wonder if this would make Duncan less likely to come to a team like the Reds, who would have trouble paying the players who want to follow Duncan.
Mark, do you have a theory why Pole was singled out for firing when pitching did not seem to be the Reds major issue this year? The only conclusion that can be drawn from the outside is that management didn't think Pole was effective and the pitchers were succeeding despite, not because, of his coaching.Are you hearing any rumors about Baker's job? I assume it's completely safe, although it wouldn't be if I were the GM or owner. But given the amount of money involved it's hard to imagine the Reds going in another direction right now.
I have no reason to think Baker won't be back. He wouldn't be participating with pitching coach interviews this week in Arizona if a firing was imminent. Not to mention the rest of the coaching staff has already been retained. Most new managers would want a say in the makeup of their staff.
As for Pole — there could be myriad reasons, including the one you listed. But none of the coaches were hired by Jocketty in the first place. This is a chance for an organizational thumbprint to be made, especially with young pitchers on the staff.
With the spat about Arroyo pitching with pine tar so fresh, would that affect any effort to seriously consider Duncan? If Duncan came in, would that signal a departure for Arroyo? Would Arroyo request out just because Duncan was being considered? Or is this not a big deal to any of these guys (Duncan, Arroyo, and Jocketty)?
I guess that coaches, unlike managers, don't make the Hall of Fame. Nonetheless, I think Leo Mazzone should go in. Braves starters didn't miss a start for something like three years in a row – that's simply amazing. I don't know if he would be right for the Reds, or if he wants to coach again, and so forth; but he's one of the all-timers, and deserves to be in the Hall.
Mario Soto is my guy, hands down. I don't think that Dave Duncan is the guy to go after for the money that it would take. I would rather see a guy like Soto, who has proven capable of working with our pitchers, and put more money into bringing in a couple more solid guys to emphasize development on pitchers in the minors. I don't know enough about the A's system, but whatever they do with their pitchers in the minors, they are ready to contribute before they put on a major league uniform…they seem to have a knack for producing quality major leaguers.

What was once the first library in Aiken County still sits on Highway 4 east of Kitchings Mill, but efforts are under way to relocate the structure so that it can be preserved as a tribute to the eastern part of the county.
The building, which most recently served as a private residence, was built by Della and James Kitching around the turn of the 20th century.
Della, the matriarch of the now-defunct Kitchings Mill community, believed in promoting the literacy of its residents.
Della stocked the library, set up a foundation to maintain it, and dedicated it to the memory of her mother, Harriet Kitching.
Debbie Bass, the great-great-niece of Della, believes area residents helped fill the library by donating books.
In fact, the inscription on the inside cover of one book, which Bass has in her possession, reads, "To the Kitching's Mill Library: from James E. Courtney 9/18/09."
Other inscriptions read that the fine for keeping a book out past two months is one cent per day.
Trustees of the library's foundation were, in addition to Della, Dr. W.A. Whitlock, P.K. Livingston, W.H. Brodie, Van E. Clark, Mrs. Sarah E. Courtney and Mrs. Beulah Livingston.
Della believed that a library was "instrumental in knowing the value of reading," said Bass, who still lives in the Kitchings Mill area.
Della was a successful farmer and was a devoted patron of her church, Tabernacle Baptist. She donated the land for and built the church's first parsonage, located on what is now known as Aiken State Park Road.
She was also known for her parties; it is said she even liked to dance in the library on the stage that was once there. Della was even reportedly expelled from her church for dancing, saying, "I had God in my heart, and the devil got into my feet," according to Bass.
"She was quite a lady, well-loved by her family," Bass said.
After about 25 years, the foundation was no longer able to sustain the library so the property reverted to Della, according to Jerry Waters, who owned the land until very recently.
It was about that same time when the present Aiken County Public Library was established, resulting from the unification of the Dibble Memorial Library and the Aiken County Library.
A painting of the Kitching's Mill Library hangs in the Aiken County Public Library on Chesterfield Street.
The Kitchings Mill Library building was occupied by Della's descendants until 2012 when Waters received a call from the family of then-resident Virginia Surles.
Surles was moving into an assisted living home and wanted Waters to assist in the preservation of the home.
To that end, Elliott Levy, the executive director of the Aiken County Historical Museum, was contacted.
The goal now is to relocate the building to the museum grounds, ideally next to the red school house.
"It has historical value. This basically brings a link (of the eastern part of the county) into the heart of Aiken County," Levy said. "That part of Aiken County has really good history."
Levy envisions turning the house into an exhibit with displays on Kitchings Mill, Salley, Perry, Wagener and Monetta.
"We would not only save the house, but put it to good use. We need to make sure people know about these things so they can appreciate what they have," Levy said.
Now, the goal is to find the funds to relocate the house.
Members of Aiken County Council have said that perhaps accommodations taxes can be appropriated to finance the move.
Bass couldn't be happier of the possibilities that lie ahead.
"I'm so delighted that we will be able to preserve (the history of Kitchings Mill) in the old library that Aunt Della built for honoring her mother. She is the epitome of what makes all communities great – caring, giving and active. I can think of no better way to honor her than to preserve the library," she said.
Bass is seeking more history on Kitchings Mill and her family. Contact her at email@example.com.
Staff photo by Haley Hughes The wording on the inside cover of this book explains that a one-cent fine will be charged for every day the book is kept out over two months.×

Although I was still waiting for permission to view the next set of asylum records for George Thomas GASSON, there were other records I could look at without any restrictions.
Of course the 1911 census wasn't available then (and I still haven't looked in there for him yet), but I could still access death and burial records. I suppose one could view his death as a release from the asylum back into civil and ecclesiastical hands.
Firstly there was his death certificate, this confirmed he had died in the asylum on the 9th May 1922 and gave his cause of death as exhaustion of dysentery (10 days) and senile dementia (several years). This was rather confusing, I had found no reference of dementia in his previous notes, is this what he was actually suffering from all along? had this developed over the years? or did they just not know what to call it?
Next came burial records. I guessed that he would have been buried at Hellingly, Sussex because I had not found a burial record back at Bolney or the surrounding parishes. Sure enough when I checked the burial records for Hellingly (at the East Sussex Record Office) there he was, being buried at the burial ground at Hellingly on the 13th May 1922 in grave number 1082B.
The register of graves for the burial ground threw up one confusing issue, it listed another person in that grave as well, she was Ada Elizabeth RICHARDSON who was buried on the 7th May 1964. This confusion was soon cleared up by the present parish clerk, as the grave had not been purchased by the family it would have been re-used at a later date.
This however brought up another issue, the grave hadn't been purchased, but how many (if any) of the family actually knew he was buried there? did any of them attend the funeral? and who paid the interment fees of 7s 6d?
With the help of a plan of the burial ground at the East Sussex Record Office and Google Maps I have been able to identify the spot where George Thomas is buried with reasonable accuracy. It doesn't appear to be marked (which was confirmed by the parish clerk) but I shall still go and pay a visit one day soon.
I know that I am probably one of only a handful of his descendants that knows the whereabouts of his last resting place, but what is sadder still is that I might be the only family member past or present that has visited his grave.

Thanks :)
Thanks Max
Thank you!
Thank You.
I think there is another technology which is very popular spreading in news these days, That is "FinFET" technology.
Very nice stuff. Particularly the comparison of Human vs IC in periodic table.
Thank you Max and Rich
I am wondering about signal and power integrity phenomena in SoC. Are there any limitation / issues?
Very good comparison of periodic elements in human beings versus integrated circuits
Hello from Oregon
I certainy remember pre-IC, born in 1947. The tubes were never reliable for more than a few months at most.
Yes, the jokes were funny. More.
I think there are too many non-academic comments. It takes forever to read after the fact.
Good stuff!
I have enjoyed slides with Max' talk.
good presentation
life before it? lots of books, board games, bicycles..
Nice to know some details .. excellent refresher.
Joke's were funny
Great serries
Very interesting. I have always wondered about haw these are made.
before IC's, I remember 6.3VAC filiment transformers. Almost every radio or TV had one.
Thanks Bye
Very interesting
Seems like the technology is constantly evolving
The joke was great
When I was first in college I rember working at the original IBM PC Store. Most of my work involed working on computers in doctor and legal offices. Typewritters were being replaced and these were the only places which had computers for the most part. Now every one has several.
Hello picking up another lecture a day or so late
Thanks Rich and Max.
and keep the jokes flowing
belated thanks
Hi everyone yesterday.
Hi Rich
Hi Max
Sorry, I didn't greet anyone today.
How are the questions used for grading?
Are questions posted to an archived class considered?
thank you Max,
anyone else so late for this sesion ?
Thanks a lot Max; it was really wonderfull
This series is a great refresher!
I do remember days before chips - Vaccum tubes & then deisrete transistor based radios
Catching up today's class
@Max can you tell some stuff about FRAM..
and also the heat dissapation of the CPU being greater?
Max, The clock frequency has gotten progressively faster over the years. Is this due to the different lattices being able to take the higher frequencies?
In some ways bandwidth is the least important parameter. For a 100 MHz clock rate, you need a bandwidth of at least 350 MHz. More important are things like triggering, sampling rate (for digital scopes), pulse capture, etc. It would take at least an hour to explain all of the factors involved. Look here http://www.tek.com/learning/oscilloscope-tutorial for tutorials.

@pcbjack: LOL
OK -- sorry everyone -- I have to go myself -- more later -- C U Tomorrow -- please pass the word about this course to your friends and co-workers -- also spread the word via Twitter and LinkedIn and suchlike...
When someone tells a engineering joke, people laugh. When someone tells a bagpipe joke, people nod in solemn agreement.
There's also DDR ram that stands dor "double data rate" -- the idea here is that instead of just clocking (reading/writing) it on one edge of the clock (like the rising edge) you do so on both edges of the clock...
Ok, Thanks Max.
Max and Rich - thanks for another great class! Gotta run - see you tomorrow
@Stevo1900: There is something called SDRAM -- this stands for Synchronous DRAM -- explaining what that means is beyond my abaility using this comment field (grin)
@GeoSei: Steve Wozniak has one of these watches also -- he is on the record as saying that out of all the "techno-geek" things he's seen, this is the one he wishes he'd invented himself
I shall! Thanks much!
Is there such a thing as SD DDR RAM? Or am I thinking of something else?
@ErrantMule: Make sure you are in the course tomorrow to get the answer :-)
@GeoSei: I love "tubes" -- in fact my pride and joy is a Nixie Tube Watch http://www.cathodecorner.com/nixiewatch/
Max: thanks very much. I'll look there in the meantime. I've looked at all the stuff on vendor sites but it seems to be geared to people who are beyond beginner level.
@ErrantMule -- that's a good question -- I'm going to email it to the Editor in Chief of the www.ScopeJunction.com website and ask him -- I'll try to get you an answer by tomorrow
My first Frequency Counter designed by Hewlet Packard had at least 50 vacuum tubes. Each digit was repsented by a vertical column of neon light bulbs labeled 0 thru 9. I believe it went as high as 10 Mhz.
After it died, I discovered that it had a temperature controlled oven with a 100 Khz Crystal inside for the time-base and also several diiodes used for other purposes. I believe it was one of the first counters made using combined solid state and vacuum tube technology circa 1956 give or take a few years. I purchased it in 1976 at a local school rummage sale for just $5.00
One thing to note is that DRAM requires periodic accessing to keep it from forgetting things. SRAM does not. This makes using SRAM much easier but more expensive (due to issues Max noted).
Why do bagpipers walk when they play? To get away from the noise..!
So much for patience being virtuous. Queue jumping and the 'squeaky wheel' principle seem to apply.
How does one know what oscilloscope bandwidth is required for a design? e.g. if MCU is 100MHz, what bandwidth of oscope is required? Is that the right question to ask?
Re ZRAM, TRAM and TTRAM -- truth to tell I haven't heard of those -- but you can bet I'll be looking them up after this chat :-)
Are they still making ZRAM, TRAM and TTRAM?
vlad, I don't know if this is the best venue to request free consulting on your engineering problems. This is a basic introductory fundamentals class, right?
(re:We use pig transmitters that emit low frequency signals and a receiver is supposed to accurately track that signal but our receiver catches any undesired low frequency signal which is not necessarily the one from the transmitter. What is the ideal way to get rid of this problem?)
DRAM is like SRAM in that it's volatile (it forgets things when power is removed from the system). That's when we move to Flash. Flash memory is non-volatile -- it remembers its contents when power is removed from the system. So in your computer we use Flash to store the bottom-level boot code -- ebnough to get th ecomputer started so that it can read the next level of th eoperating system off a hard disk drive.
ok thanks MAX
So in a computer system SRAM is used for the on-chip cache memory and anywhere else you need the highest speed, while DRAM is used to provide the bulk storage -- when you see a computer tha tboasts "4GB of RAM" -- it's DRAM theyu are talking about...
good day to all
Thank you Max. The lecture was supper interesting. Bye
vlad - perhaps redundancy? parity or error-correction bits?
@Vlad -- I'm really not an expert on this topic
DRAM syands for Dynamic RAM -- in thsi case each cell is formed from a capacitor and a transistor (the capacitor is formed using transistor level processes -- even better tha tcapacitir is formed on top of the transistor (or vice versa -- I can;t remember). The advantage of DRAM is that it's very dense (close-packed) you gan get a lot of it in a chip. Also it is low on power consumption. The disadvantage is that it's slower than SRAM
MAX can you please throw some light on my question?
vlad - ever consider modulating the signal to be able to identify it?
yes i did try that but it gives the same issue
I thought the bagpipe joke was funny.
about packaging - I remember the first time I saw surface-mounted chips. seemed so obvious (in retrospect, of course) - I used to take broken DIPs, put them on the table and push down so the legs would bend underneath. wish I'd've thought of soldering them that way...
SRAM stands for static RAM -- the name is historical -- a single SRAM cell stores 1 bit of information (a 0 or a 1). The cell is formed from 4 to 6 transistors. SRAM is volatile -- when you power the system off it forgets what it was storing. SRAM is very fast but it consumes a lot of power and the 4 to 6 transistors occupy a lot of silicon real-estate (relatively speaking)
@vlad, by the way, in-band interference also comes from rotating metal parts such as engines or moving vehicles within the detection range.
Good Joke was funny. Love bagpipe jokes. Thanks
the transmitter emits electromagnetic pulses of freq 15 to 30 Hz which the receiver is supposed to track above ground but due to random movements of the receiver antenna the unit falsely thinks it detects 15 to 30 hz signal but its actually not from the transmitter?
any opinion MAX?
I got here late... Did you address the relationship between the sampling rate, the number of bits per sample and the coeffients of the Fourier series for the waveform one is converting from analog to digital? JUST KIDDING!I'm really writing to express my disappointment having missed bagpipe joke.
...and to suggest that maybe these presentatins have TWO posting areas side by side. One for everyone who wants to discuss their audio quality, and another one to discuss the ACTUAL PRESENTATION. Is that possible?
Thank You Max
OK SRAM vs DRAM....
Meant SRAM vs DRAM?
can a regular microphone record the 30 Hz signals?
Very good, thanks.
In many cases a MCU doesn;t use external memory -- like if you have a low-power wireless network, the MCU powers up running th eprohram in its-on-chip Flash memory -- this sort of MCU is also found in microwave ovens, toasters, washing machines, dish washers, and so forth
SDRAM vs DRAM?
Bye, Max..See you tomorrow it's 3pm EDT
@vlad, I did some work in the past with VLF 20-200Hz. The trick was to reject all in-band interference such as power line 60, 120, 180 hz. motion of the detector also induced low frequency signals, so a low frwquency negative feedback to restore the base line of the signal is also neeed.
@VLAD....better insulation?
MCU stands for microcontroller unit -- this is essentially a microprocessor coupled with outher stuff like on-chip Flash memory, on-chip SRAM, counter timers, DMA, communications interfaces like UARTS, a few analog inputs feeding into A-to-D converters -- all mounted on the same die and presented in a single package
how to track the low frequency signal(15 to 30 Hz) from beneath the ground surface accurately?
We use pig transmitters that emit low frequency signals and a receiver is supposed to accurately track that signal but our receiver catches any undesired low frequency signal which is not necessarily the one from the transmitter. What is the ideal way to get rid of this problem?
how to distinguish 15 to 30 hz signal from underground transmitter with other 15 to 30 Hz undesired signals not necessarily from the same transmitter?
Thanks again Max and Rich. I'm definitely interested in the course on how computers do math and designing a chip would be cool.
MPU stands for microprocessor. Generally speaking this will be a central processing unit (CPU) with a few additional functional blocks like on-chip mcache memory, a floating point co-processor, and so forth...
how about the optocouples IC constructions?
I was alway wonder how they can fit everything in the black casing.
Thank you Max, enjoyed this very much, looking forward to tomorrow. Enjoyed several RHCP videos last night.
Thanks and nice use of the periodic chart!
Could you further describe which types of IC are used on common devices: cell phones, PC motherboards, iPads, inkjet printers, etc.?
how to distinguish 15 to 30 hz signal from underground transmitter with other 15 to 30 Hz undesired signals?
thanks, Max! later slides were Amazingly Interesting! especially silicon interposer - looks like a teeny-tiny 2-sided circuit board (vias and all...) made of silicon and stuck into the IC. what's old is new again.... :)
Thanks Max. Brilliant.
What is the performance affected when using the SiP 2D / 3D packages?
How does one know what oscilloscope bandwidth is required for a design? e.g. if MCU is 100MHz, what bandwidth of oscope is required? Is that the right question to ask?
SRAM vs DRAM?
Very informative lecture. I have to go back and review yesterday's session, as I missed it. I am looking forward to the rest of the week, though.
OK -- difference between a MCU and a MPU...
I would like a better understanding of how memory is "physically" stored...if that makes sense.
Thanks Max and Rich, interesting and entertaining as always. See all tomorrow.
@"It's easy to be the best, when it is likely the only bagpipe joke I hear today."
Well, there you are then (grin)
Thanks Max. Missed the jokes so will have to listen to them later. :(
Thanks again Max! Great presentation!
Thanks from Bulgaria too, Max!
Thank you very much, Max

how to distinguish 15 to 30 hz signal from underground transmitter with other 15 to 30 Hz undesired signals?
MPU - MicroProcessor Unit
MCU - MicroController unit (usually has memory and flash on board)
thanks Max!
bye bye.
Thanks, Max!
Excelllent job Max, Thank you
My absolute pleasure -- so any question?
Very good presentation!
Another excellent session. Thanks!
Thanks, Max! Looking forward to tomorrow's session.
thanks Max
great information, thanks Max
Thnaks Max....very interesting indeed!
Thanks max!
It's easy to be the best, when it is likely the only bagpipe joke I hear today.
Thank you, Max!
Really informative. Thanks Max!
enjoyed the review thanks.
Another excellent presenation today Max. Thanks.
you have to appreciate British humor
Thanks MAX!
thanks very much, Max. Very informative
Very good information, Max. Thank you so much!
thanks lots of good info
Thanks Max, Rich and Digikey
Another great presentation from Mr. Magnificient!
Thanks for a great session Max!
MPU vs. MCU?
Max, thank you for today's lecture
Thankyou for taking the time to do this again you are great Max
Were there jokes?
Thanks, Max.
Good info. Thanks Max.

Good information and perspective.
Thank you Max, I have to leave now
Thanks Max!
good job.
what is the difference between MPU and MCU
Are ceramic caps embedded into your example of slide 29?
The chips that got hot were the 64k memory chips circa 1980, had to pretest all of the chips to weed out the slow ones and then try to match compatable parts to even get it to work. Life is alot easier now thought maybe more confusing but can't wait to see what comes next.
Very cool information, great presentation. Thanks Max!
very interesting. thanks, max
Thank You Max.
Thx Max, I have to leave now. It's a great PT, See you tomorrow.
Finally got my "Streaming" issues resolved.
wow...great intro on chips and especially 3D technology
thanks max!
good info
Flas=h: You have version 11,3,300,265 installed
Firefox 13.02
Audio OK.
I have some bubble memory for my Fluke 1752A. It got warm but never hot.
thank you
Refreshed and all is well. First time this happened.
Suspect it is my home wireless supplier
I just checked my firewalls and it's allowed on both the router and computer.
Your right bubble memory was to slow, early serial system, interesting but not very practical. Worked on a solid state 1 meg disk on 14 x 18 and caught on fire reguarly.
Mine just dropped totally off-line
Max, I have to leave for a Dr. Lab appointment. I will catch the end of the presentation when I get back. Great presentation. You have filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge. Thanks
@Jawanda - share with us how you recovered audio
got it back.
I'm still waiting for when you will have a shipping version of holographic (3d) memory where you can store exabytes or more in a space less then a single DIMM today
Good audio
KentJ - Do you have problems listening to the archived session too?
audio is ok
Silver is still used for lead frame plating! Particularly for fine wire Al wire bonds
audio gone??
@caa028, gold is used in the packaging but not in the IC itself, I believe
Bubble memory was too slow. Replaced by flash.
The new tearm they are throwing around in mobile development is kibi and mibi to avoid the confusion
thanks Zwilrich
no silver, it migrates
You may have to disable your firewall ofr a quick test. You might also have ot blocked at your router firewall -- assuming you have one.
If it works after disabling the FW -- then you can figure out the ports and add it/them.
@richnass That would be the element Bs, number 118 I believe... :)
Gold is used to assemble the package [wire bonds, plating, etc], but is very bad in the Si lattice itself. Is a recombination center.
What happened to bubble memory.....
don't forget "kibbe" = 1024 & "mibbe" = 1,048,576
Blue was second most common group of five.
Good one gwp2
No gold and silver in ICs?
what was the blue on slide 18? minimal trace?
Being totally disabled, I work from home so that won't work.
No only managers and salesmen
no Au - what about my gold fillings
Am I the only one who was waiting for a "we're filled with hot air" joke?
here in bulgaria(europe) audio is ok too.
@Kentj: that sounds like your company or ISP is blocking blogtalkradio or some other essential resource needed to bring the audio to you. Consider listening to the archived audio elsewhere (like at home) and see how that works. I can listen at home but the class happens while I am at work and my company blocks the audio so I typically listen on a smart phone.
@ObeDon - left side of blogtalk player (round button that changes between pause and play)
jl -- it is not on the slide and PALs were the first PGAs
Audio worked great in previous weeks. Just not this week.
@Kentj - "blogtalkradio.com" blocked by proxy or some script blocker?
wow...$10m...need to get this number down somehow
CAA028 where is the play?
Great audio
No audio at all. I don't even have the area at the top of the page Where "Blog Talk Radio" would go. I even reloaded the up to date Flash Player.
@npitech - what do you mean by "not listed"
Great audio, no dropout
had a brief audio break - hit pause and then play... everything recovered
@richnass: I do have a similar audio problem but on a much smaller and less annoying scale than justheretolearn does. I am listening on a smart phone so I assume that local congestion or temporary signal loss as I move around accounts for the occasional drops.
RichQ -- I know what it is, it is not listed. Thanks!
ok here also
whenever I have had the continueous rebuffereing in the past, had to restart brower...not having this issue now, everything is OK
my audio is ok!
Only had audio drop out momentarily once. I didn't have to do anything
loud and clear; no breaks
@npitech - PAL = programmable array logic
justheretolearn: I'm guessing that the problem is at your end. Seems to be okay for me. Anyone else having similar issue?
Slide 14 -- PALs?
My audio goes into buffering a dozen times or more during the class, the only way to get it back is refresh many times. ???
Slide 12 should also include other devices like UARTs. etc. How about just "logic" as another box?
SOC + FPGA = PSoC
Via and Blind Via -- go to the http://www.element14.com/community/index.jspa (Element 14 web site) get a copy of Eagle -- watch the tutorial and get all that stuff explained. It's a hangout for high end hobbyists and wannabe engineers like me.
I thought it already was taking days!
Yeah take as long as needed it is always a good talk.
thanks Rich...yes, keep it coming
Yes, please take your time. Very cool information
Days would be fine
Is there a blending of SOC and FPGA chips?
very interesting
Slide 12 - add logic gates, AND, NAND, NOR, flip-flops, etc. They still exist.
@BTucker06: Could you define VIA or Blind VIA
A via is a hole through a printed wiring board (PWB) that electrically connects the top layer to the bottom layer. A blind via is one that connects two internal layers of a PWB.
Don't have any Audio Problem.
yes the audio dropped for a moment but came right back, all is OK now
Just had the audio drop out for a moment as well
DaveWR - it comes out looking like a lumpy cylinder. Forget how many lumps, but U are right - less stress points, and it certainly makes it easier to handle a round wafer. Lumpy, irregular wafers don't work too well in automated equipment
Might add MMIC to slide 11
use your web browser (assuming you have a smartphone)
Could you define VIA or Blind VIA
hi all
@marcioSysc, shaving or grinding the top of a plastic package should not cause any problems.
What is the number?
Why are the crystals round? (Cylindrical?) WHy not?
A geologist might say that rocks with corners are "high energy" subject to the corners breaking off and cracking. I suspect it's the same issue -- also a way of making a low stress chip. AIrliners have round windows to reduce stress... Just guessin' but maybe it's the answer.
Use phone ObeDon
if I shave the identification of the IC may affect its operation?
Joined late, can't get tot he audio - any suggestions?
@justheretolearn - I have lost audio in the past by navigating off this page by clicking other links, etc.
Question, why do I have to keep refreshing to keep audio going. I have updated Flash restarted computer.
sorry, only one E, EPROM is the windows part :-)
Cross-section of Samsung ARM processor from the Galaxy S 3...
lost audio
a good way to see these simple ICs is to look at a windowed chip, like a pic or EEPROM
what about the optocouples?
Max should add a slide around #3 or #4 to explain the size differences in nanometers, etc.
Had an early radio boasting seven transistors. Turned out that four were used as diodes.
slide 4
which slide are we at now?
I saw a good quality step and repeat machine. i was built on a big hunk of granite and had its oun temperature control unit to prevent temperature changes from causing problems
hello everyone.
Sorry.. a little late.
Ah... thanks! :)
The boule isn't perfectly cylindrical. It is ground to a cylindircal shape after drawing.
Waffers are cut from grown crystal silicon.
Still no audio after all that.
First home project was VTVM (Vacumn Tube Volt Meter - still have it :)
First job was post IC era.
(Hi from Portlandia)
Why Cylinders? Is it a chemical aspect of Silicon?
yes, slide 2
hi everyone
i read once that we make more transistors than all printed letters (including copies). Think about the complexity of a transitor and a letter printed on the page.
I still have my RCA tube manual and TI hard bound TTL manual
Slide 2 - right?
Hello, First time, First job I work with RTL - DTL
The first transistor I had or used was a Raytheon germanium PNP, the CK722, in a beautiful blue case, that I purchased for $0.99. I still have it and it was still functional the last time I checked (but that was many years ago now).
I remember working with TV transmitter tubes... about 6 feet tall.
Since I started my careers always have used ICs.
@chsweden - try refreshing your browser...if that doesn't work, try restarting your browser
I made a tube radio from Radio Shack as a young boy. It was exciting when transistor radios came out.
If you experience technical problems, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com
Sci. Fi becomes science fact.
A TV in each room is easy when you live in a tent
I worked with tubes, transistors and ITs Saw analog computers on subs in the 60's. The first time I saw a transistor it was 1950 at the Sithsonian Institute. Also saw Eniac there later.
Remeber the 50's? A miniture six transistor superhet AM Radio was IT!
Can't hear anything. Has webinar started?
Sounds like a cat, lol.
LOL @ Jawanda I wasn't alive before ICs either! @ ObeDon from Ann Arbor here.
we had a crystal radio
Love Max's humor
more jokes
Like the bagpipe joke, "Far Side" always looses something when you have to describe it.
certainly will get you noticed.
Good joke !
@Max - lol - keep them coming
bag pipes = bag full of cats
Don't quit your day job
yes funny
I enjoyed it.
I still have a Staedler Mars slide rule, some vac tubes and a box full of 2N2222 transistors -- guilty as charged. But I did originally work on VLSI when I started my career... (Probably before Max. ;-) )
I had a chuckle at the bagpipes.
Started during the transition to ICs. Very little transistor experience.
yes, funny, tell one tomorrow
dry british humour is always apropos
it was funny Max the Magnficient!
@Max: Joke was funny. Love bagpipe jokes.
very funny
ha ha - good one
Milwaukee, WI
@Kentj - audion as started - try refreshing your browser
I do remember before ICs, but only fiddled with stuff then - mostly taking things apart (putting them together being a bit more difficult... :)
I remember black & white TVs, life without air conditioners, one-car families, actually walking to school...
I started off in vacuum tube design -- characteristic curves were much better than those of transistors.
I was exposed to IC's when in High School. This is the same time I became interested in electronics and logic circuits.
Yes, lots of standoffs, wire and many transistors and tubes as heaters on a cold day.
My first transistor was an International Rectifier CK722
Yes. Tubes added light and heat and individual components were large enough to see, replace, and measure.
tubes and individual transistors
No audio or even the portion of screen saying audio is buffering this week.
Ensenada, México
Some fun, eval, and surprisingly learning some new stuff...
Ex-designer of math processor and comm and protocol processors.
My first class on radio was all about tubes in 1962.
@rich - life before IC's - yes began on punch cards and the Basic 360 following the 1440 (? or something)
Of course, life before ICs. Very exciting to get your own transistor radio, which could almost fit in your pocket!
Old tv and radios.
good day all
Refresher course. I remember using a slide rule.
Before IC's??? I'm not THAT old!
What was that?
I like the tubes too. They still really a good stuff.
I don't really have much memory of life before IC's-I'm 48.
life before ICs for me was a caddy full of tubes. troubleshooting was feeling which ones were lit or hot.
Hello all
don't remember
Remember before transistors, heat and high voltage.
Life before ICs was dark and simple.
No, I started looking at IC electronics as a child
Of course I remember... 2N2222
Rich - I'd like to suggest the slides be available in PDF as well as PPT
sao paulo Brazil
Yes I do
I remember vacuum tubes burned my fingers... I'm so happy they're gone. :)
I can still tell you what's on what pin of a 12AX7
I wasn't alive before IC's
@Rich - tubes are (were) fun

Local doctors and health officials are warning residents to vaccinate themselves against the flu as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have reported the virus as "widespread" in South Carolina.
Only three other states are reporting that many cases – Alaska, Mississippi and New York, according to the CDC.
Health officials on Monday said suspected flu cases also have jumped across five Southern states, and the primary strain circulating tends to make people sicker than other types, according to the Associated Press.
"It looks like it's shaping up to be a bad flu season, but only time will tell," said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the CDC.
Dr. Gerald Gordon with Internal Medicine Associates of Aiken said he expects flu cases to rise locally.
"This year it appears the flu we are seeing is more virulent," he said, meaning it is more severe and could be more lethal even to those with normal immune systems.
The first flu death in South Carolina came last week when the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control reported the illness had claimed the life of a Barnwell child.
Since Sept. 30, there have been 1,976 confirmed flu cases in South Carolina. Of those, 1,232 cases were reported in the week ending Nov. 24, according to the latest available figures from the state Department of Health and Environmental Control.
Higher-than-normal reports of flu also have come in from Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas. An uptick like this usually doesn't happen until after Christmas, according to The Associated Press, and flu-related hospitalizations also are rising earlier than usual.
"Flu activity typically peaks in February, and it is very unusual for us to see this number of cases so early in the season," said Dr. Linda Bell, interim state epidemiologist.
The last time a conventional flu season started this early was the winter of 2003-04, which proved to be one of the most lethal seasons in the past 35 years with more than 48,000 deaths. The dominant type of flu then is the same one seen this year.
An estimated 112 million Americans have been vaccinated so far, and the vaccine formulated for this year is well-matched to the strains of the virus seen so far, CDC officials said.
On average, about 24,000 Americans die each flu season, according to the CDC.
"The flu shot still remains the best preventative measure you can take to prevent influenza," Gordon said. He said the shot takes at least seven days to be effective, though, so it will not protect those who already are ill with the flu.
An average of 226,000 hospitalizations and between 3,000 and 49,000 flu-related deaths occur annually, and, despite the toll of the flu, more than 60 percent of Americans have not taken advantage of the flu shot so far this year, the CDC reported.
Flu shots are available at many physicians' offices, health clinics and pharmacies.
The best ways to prevent the spread of flu are to cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze, wash hands often and thoroughly and stay home when you are sick. The CDC also stresses the importance of the immunization for key groups such as pregnant women, health care workers, the young and those with weak immune systems.
Gordon also said that, despite what some believe, people do not get the flu from the inactivated flu shot.
"The attitude that the flu shot 'gave me the flu in the past and I will not get another flu shot' could be a lethal attitude," he said.
The Associated Press and The Post and Courier of Charleson contributed to this report.
Help prevent the flu
• Get a flu vaccine each year.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water. Wash them for as long as it takes to sing the Happy Birthday song twice.
• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, and then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Stay home if you are sick until you have been symptom-free without taking fever reducing medicine for 24 hours.
• Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
• Eat a healthy diet, exercise and get plenty of rest.

• Headache
• Extreme tiredness
• Dry cough
• Sore throat
• Runny or stuffy nose
• Muscle aches
• Occasionally, especially in children, stomach symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea

• All area CVS pharmacies
• Family Pharmacy, 333 Newberry St. NW and 110 Price Ave.
• All area Walgreens pharmacies
