Looks like some of us might be getting what we are asking for. Front page of hoops hype references an ESPN insider article that states the Clipps are looking to move him.
http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/blog ... p;id=21913
I am guessing its not just because he has a little injury and the Clippers think he is going to be playing better.
Mullens & Hollins should get the boot
No need to get excited. Unless a GM is retarded they
wouldn't give up a Waterboy for Dudley.
Dudley and Bullock are basically the only two guys we have strike that the middle ground of being expendable (unlike Paul, Griffin, Jordan, Redick, Collison and Crawford) but not completely worthless in a trade (Barnes, Mullens, Jamison, Green, Turkoglu, Hollins). So if we are going to make a trade it pretty much needs to involve one or both of those guys.
I read that we're talking to Philly about Hawes or Turner. Hawes would fit a bigger need but either would help, I wish we had more 1st rd picks to use here.
My face while reading the article
Doc must've been really upset with JD after passing up two open shots leading to turn overs against Denver.
Lol.. He was supposed to be a step up from the last SF according to some stats
If he was putting up the stats he did last year he would by a mile. As is he's been about even with Butler, who was also bad. Our big drop off at SF from last year has been Barnes going into the shitter.
As for his defense, we're about 10 points better on defense with him on the floor than Barnes this year, which is kind of shocking considering how slow Dudley has been, but I think it says more about how Barnes is playing than Dudley.
You can't compare someone's stats on a contending team to someone in a lottery team. Too many factors can help inflate or deflate stats
I don't recall butler missing so many wide open 3s
Seriously funny because they wanted to use Dudley's stats from a horrible team but the same people are saying how you can't trust Turners stats on a lottery team.
Fine if he put up the stats he did for 09/10 Suns he would have been a huge upgrade from Butler (who sucked and still does suck). It's not like his stats spiked up big time after the Suns crapped out. His rate stats were steady, he just played more minutes. 09/10 was arguably the best season of his career.
Dudley having by far the worst season of his career is shooting 45%/36%, Butler shot 42%/38% last year. Dudley has a higher TS%.
Butler was better creating his own shot, Dudley is a better passer. Butler is a better rebounder, Dudley is a better defender even when he's limping around.
Last year's Butler and this year's Dudley are close, this is with Dudley having by far his worse year and being paid half as much. This year's Butler is even worse.
Saying they are close in value is not any kind of compliment to Dudley though, Butler was bad last year.
I'm high on hawes but not on turner
Maybe the idea is to see how Vucevic does. If he does well then you package Dudley with Mullens or one of the other back up bigs to free up a spot. Maybe we get a solid back up big, or a quality sf.
Maybe something like this, but does that kill all the spacing. http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=njmzls9
I don't want to clog up the paint for our offense.
The eye test tells me that Dudley is not a better passer than butler. He turns it over constantly when not just shooting.
Sorry but Dudley is not a better defender or even a good defender. He makes a few smart plays that people remember and overlook how bad his overall defense is over the course of an entire game. It's ridiculous how much clinging to straws is happening with Dudley defenders.
It's been over half a season and he still sucks and is showing no signs of injury. He has always been this slow, watch clips of his time front he Suns, it's like watching molasses.
Oh and Butler is a much better passer not just by the eye test but also with his career stats.
It's bad enough when you know your GM is trying to trade you. How do you play for your coach when you know he is trying to trade you?
I am okay with trading Dudley, but what I am afraid of is the spacing. Defenders won't respect Barnes and Turner 3's. They are both shooting below 30% from 3. Therefore, more attention on Blake and CP3.
At least with Dudley they have to respect his 3 point shot, even though he isn't making them right now.
We just need a SF who can hit the 3 consistently.
It's basically impossible to argue with someone's eyeball test, but Dudley gets more assists and less turnovers per 36 than Butler did last year.
I'm not trying saying Dudley is doing well, I'm saying not Butler didn't do well either. On top of that Barnes this year is doing worse than either of them, making things worse.
If we don't trade Dudley I wouldn't mind Doc shutting down for a month to get healthy and sort out whether this is a physical problem once and for all, but as bad as our other SFs have been, we've not been in position to do that. I also don't mind us trading Dudley, but we need to better than a straight dump and actually get some value back, which might be hard to do.
Using Butler's career stats is silly. At one point Butler was really good player, so he's got some good career numbers, but that player is long gone. That would be like using Grant Hill's career numbers to talk about how good he was last year.
Dudley really doesn't turn it over much at all, and I'm not sure Caron even made many passes. Dudley had turnovers early trying to make connections with DJ, but they figured it out and he hasn't had any turnover issues outside of the fact that he was already disappointing people enough that if he did it was like he turned it over 7 times.
It's not that cut and dry, all depends on role and playing style and not all lottery teams are made the same. There's no sweeping brush that can be painted about comparing production on different teams.
To excuse his play because he's on a better team also doesn't make sense because players don't have good selection, play smart basketball, defend better and hustle more on lottery teams then decide to not so that on good teams, since when does that happen? It's the opposite that you are worried about, the guy that jacks up shots and is lazy on defense because his team sucks and then trying to integrate him into a winning team.
Like we said before, Dudley had about 3-4 seasons of production on a WCF team, two approximately .500 teams who didn't make the playoffs because they are in the West and a team with a bad record and his production was consistent. Using a caliber of team as an excuse for an off ball role player makes no sense. It's not the team or how good they are, it could be a role issue, but in the end it's just him.
In response to clipperboy, Evan Turner is an on ball player who is poor off the ball. For example, Jamal last season was assisted on 56.6% of his made FG's, Turner's career high is about 6-7% less than that at 50%. Turner is at 50% this season. This season Jamal has been creating more with Doc, which seems surprising because you'd think Doc would use him off the ball more than Vinny, but that hasn't been the case! he's at 45.5%. Turner isn't some off ball player, you need to suck it up that they are a bad basketball team and watch some Philly games.
It's not any sort of secret that a guy like that will produce less counting stats on a better teams when his role is changed to off ball player. Now, if he has other skills to make up for it, it could be fine (high level defense, shooting ability, etc), but you still have to consider how much you are paying for that. If he was coming here to play a similar role, then okay he'll produce the same, though I'm not really sure why we want a guy to use 15.6 FGA to score only 18 points and to commit 3 turnovers along the way, but let's say we did, he would have similar stats. Unlucky for him, good teams usually have better on ball players who are much more effective and efficient with the ball in their hands. Paul and Blake will have the ball, Redick will be next scoring option, and Turner will default into the role of 4th option/defender who is average on defense and doesn't space the floor well.
If he's being brought in to be a 6th man type so he can handle the ball more in the quarter a game that your stars aren't playing sure, but then for this team, Jamal is much better than him as a shot creator, score and shooter, and the other 12+ MPG they have to play with the starters, Jamal fits better.
Dudley's stats and production were consistent over multiple teams. Actually this season his shooting numbers are still pretty good overall, and his biggest downfall is going on the road which has never been an issue in his career. The thing is that even this season, Turner isn't doing that well if you get past the PPG. He's just using more possessions, but turning it over more, Doc won't give him all those extra possessions, so he's what, a 14/6/3 guy (if he's playing as much as CP and Blake), at 28-29 MPG which is more of what he would play, he's like a 12/5/2 player who can't spread the floor well, plays average defense, makes almost $7M and is due for a new contract in the off-season.
How does that sound like a good deal?
Dudley has done poorly, step slow, and though his shooting has objectively been fine despite being inconsistent, he was brought in to be an elite shooter, not just better than Barnes for example.
If Doc feels Hedo can move to SF and be fine defensively, they you can look to trade Dudley for a decent big. If not, you probably still need to fill SF as Barnes has been pretty poor himself, so you would have to try and trade for one.
We'll see what they try and come up with. Usually a players value doesn't tanks after just half a season of poor play, so there will still be teams who feel that in the role on their team he could be more productive.

Bullock dudley for hawes? Do u guys think its a good trade?
I'd take that trade anyday, another talented big is what we need. Shooters like dudley and bullock are much easier to find.
Philly wants first round picks, not a 28 y/o guy on the decline, under contract until 2016
Now that we are somewhat linked to LeBron's potential teams next season I say we keep Dudley as a trading piece or trade him for somebody the Heat would potentially want for LeBron.
Trade Dudley/Barnes/2 future 2nd round picks for Turner/Anderson
Then in the offseason
Trade Turner/Jordan/Jamal/2 future 1st round picks for THE ONE AND ONLY LEBRON JAMES!!!!.......and Norris Cole
Lol, we're not getting Lebron.
Generally no one cares for those type of players since they can get similar talent from the D-League
Hmmm....thinking like someone else I know.
In the 1st deal Philly doesn't want that stuff so that won't work.
In the end, this has been Dudley's biggest issue all season, even more than rebounding or sometimes getting best on D:
Tanks in shooting. He goes from 13 pts/36 at home to 8.6 pts/36 on the road which makes sense when your TS% is 18% lower. What exactly is at home that makes him decide to not suck, or maybe the question is what is on the road that makes him forget how to play basketball? His career is par home/road, so what gives this season that he become the league's worst road player?
Maybe we got the "Pod" instead of the real thing...ekkkkkk!!!
Maybe he has a twin that goes on the road while he stays at home.
A 10% FG and 17.5% 3PT difference is insane though. On the road he shoots 3's like an awful shooter and at home like Stephen Curry
Must be psychologically hard on a player to remain upbeat and positive when his name is bandied about in the trade rumor mill. Too bad Jared hasn't played consistently well for the Clippers to squash these rumors. But then again, most players seem expendable at some point in their careers.
I know spencer hawes can shoot 3's excellent on FT and can grab boards but i didn't know this guy has really high badketball IQ and can dish really good for a Center. Average 1.6 blocks too! He really is a good fit on our team in my opinion
Pau Gasol is also going through a very similar situation. Basketball teams are a business and they usually move players when the believe it will make their team better. I feel bad for Dudley on a personal level, but then again as you said if he played consistently his name wouldn't be the subject of trade rumors. As you said all players are expendable at some point
I was thinking the same. If he is traded I hope it happens soon cos it might make him play worse after hearing these rumors. It can't be easy on him.............but I don't feel that sorry for him with a paycheck like that.
Pau has been through it a lot over the last few seasons.
yes he has. The Lakers are at a crossroad right now. Their core of Nash, Bryant, and Gasol are aging and all three are on the decline. With Gasol's production down the Lakers are planning to move him as well. Maybe for draft picks or simply cap space.
Dudley has gone to the line a total of 36 times all year, that can happen from your starting SF. I'm pretty sure Jamal goes to the line that much every game.
Ryan Hollins has gone to the line 44 times. FOURTY FOUR times!
This why injury is a fairly logical explanation (on top Rivers saying he's injured several times). The type of injury he has needs rest and you just don't get when you're traveling and playing the NBA. I've been in favor shutting him down completely for back to backs and significantly cutting his road minutes in general or completely shutting him down for a period of time, unfortunately our other SFs have been so terrible it has been difficult to do anything like this.
If he's still on the team in the playoffs, I could see him doing significantly better, with more time between games and less travel.
Yeah, Pau has had an up-and-down response to being on the trade rumor mill for a while now. I guess he's used to it and has been able to block it out and just play the game. When all is said and done, the NBA is a business first, and players, however expendable, are being paid rather well than the average Joe. So I ought not to feel sorry for these guys, lol.
On the one hand it must be rough because other people are making decisions about your life and where you live. On the other, they are getting paid millions to play a game for a living. I look forward to playing ball all week and I have to pay for the pleasure.
Of course we're not getting LeBron. There's a 0.000001% we get him.....but that 0.000001% chance still makes me drool.
I would love to keep bullock but Hawes would be a great pickup.

Here are a few photos of St Andrew's Church, Nuthurst, Sussex. I took these on my visit last week, when I passed through the parish on my way to Horsham.
I have previously posted a postcard of Nuthurst Church and as I commented at the time, not a lot has changed, there are of course fewer headstones and fewer trees now in front of it now.
Burials are still taking place in the churchyard, to the west of the church. I found the view of the western end of the church was quite striking, but I am not quite sure why.
The interior of the church was equally striking, I certainly wasn't expecting to find such a highly decorated interior, although of course my photo doesn't really do it justice.
I couldn't leave without getting a photo of the font, my 3x great-grandfather Thomas GASSON was baptised here in May 1831, along with four more of his siblings in subsequent years. According to the church guide and history it is made of Purbeck marble and may date back to Saxon times.

Claws rattle the chain-link fences and ripple across the metal, and a chorus of deep, loud barks fills the air as Lt. Chad Hyler unlocks the kennel area at the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
"They're excited. They think we're gonna go somewhere," he said of the dogs that are part of the Aiken County Bloodhound Tracking Team.
The Sheriff's Office houses eight dogs currently, but is equipped to house up to 12, according to Hyler. All the dogs are what is known as "SLED stock" – a mixture developed by the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division of full-blooded bloodhound, Redbone and Bluetick hounds.
"Bloodhounds are so slow in stamina," Hyler said. "They've got great noses, but they put the Redbone and Bluetick in the bloodline and created a SLED stock for the stamina. We want them to run faster. We want to get it done as quick as we can."
The Bloodhound Tracking Team consists of officers from the Sheriff's Office, the Aiken Department of Public Safety and the North Augusta Department of Public Safety.
The dogs are born and trained in-house, and begin training at 10 weeks old.
"We're feeding them constantly when they're weened off their mother," Hyler said. "We go out there, play and roll around in the grass and create that bond. They know we're here to take care of them."
He said the training begins as a "cat-and-mouse" game.
"Just trying to get them to catch up with us," he said. "As they get bigger, we'll make that distance longer and longer, to the point where we'll go over there and hide, then bring the dog out and give that same command. They know – they'll associate it with, 'There's a trail here.' They'll pick up on it and go find that person."
The dogs only track human scents.
"It could be a lost child of any age to an Alzheimer's patient that has wandered off from their home, to a bad guy that just robbed a bank," Hyler said. "They don't distinguish between a bad or a good person, they just know they're there to track a human scent."
What sets bloodhounds apart from other police dogs is that they work off of "pure love," Hyler said.
"Most dogs work for food or a toy," he said. "Nothing against our bomb dog or our narcotics dogs, but these are our 'pure love' dogs. Their reward is the attention we give them at the end – the praise. That's what they work for. Their drive is to please us, and they do a very good job at it."
The dogs follow the scent on dead skin cells that are constantly falling off of humans, Hyler said.
"Each one of those has odors, and these dogs' noses are 10 times better than ours are. They can pick up on that," he said. "As you run, and if you're afraid or scared, those pheromones in your body produce a strong odor, so it's going to hold. Once they get locked on it, they want to finish the job. They know we're going to be there and that they're going to get that attention and love."
Preserving that scent is one of the reasons law enforcement officers establish a perimeter around a crime scene, Hyler said.
Hyler said all the dogs are equal in tracking ability, but some are better suited for certain environments than others.
"Each one's like a person," he said. "Some do better in urban environments versus suburban or around other dogs. Some you want to have strictly in the woods. We know if we get a call in downtown Aiken with a bank robbery, our guys are trained to know which dogs are better suited for that atmosphere."
Just like with people, Hyler said handlers have to develop and nurture relationships with the dogs.
"We've got to know each individual dog, because each one's got their own personality," he said. "It creates a bond, just like a partner that rides in the car with you. They're our partners, basically. Just with four legs."
One of their partners, "Duke," is back on the job and living a dog's life just over a year after he suffered two stab wounds during a chase.
On Nov. 15, 2011, the Bloodhound Tracking Team was called to search for two suspects accused of stealing a tractor-trailer cab in Augusta and driving into Aiken County. Hyler said the team routinely brings two dogs to each call.
"We tracked the suspects through some very thick stuff," he said.
The dogs used to be tracked with a bell on their collars that let handlers know their location. Now they're tracked with a GPS unit on a collar, which sends a signal back to a handheld device the handlers hold.
During Duke's chase of the two suspects, his signal was lost. Hyler said that meant either there was a malfunction with the satellite, or – most likely – that the unit had been cut off the dog.
"We didn't know until we got to the last spotting and found the articles," Hyler said. "They cut both the collars, and the harness that they wear was thrown over to the side, trying to basically hide it."
Duke had two wounds. While officers tended to him, the second dog finished the search and found the suspects.
Patrick Spires, 31, of Aiken, was found hiding in the attic of a barn in Beech Island. It was there that Spires fought with deputies, causing one to fall from the attic and suffer injury.
Spires was found guilty last month of cruelty to a police dog and resisting arrest, and was sentenced to five years in prison for the stabbing charge and one year for resisting arrest, with the sentences running concurrently.
Duke was rushed to the veterinary clinic and made a full recovery. Hyler said that after a couple of weeks of "light duty," he was back on the job.
"From time to time, they get injured or hurt their leg," Hyler said. "We'll take them out of service and make sure they're taken care of and not pushed back into service."
Hyler said one of his favorite memories with one of the bloodhounds was with a female named Brooke, who died not too long ago.
"We called her our mama dog," he said.
One cold night, a young girl had gone missing from her home, Hyler recalled.
"We were trying to find her but didn't have a good location of where she might have gone," he said. "They put Brooke on the trail. We stopped hearing the bell and knew she was in the general vicinity. We actually found her laid up next to the girl, keeping her warm. There's some instincts like that that are so bonding; she knew the child was cold or scared, and she just laid up next to her."
Hyler said the dogs are not trained to bite, and reiterated that they don't know a "good" person from a "bad" person.
"We don't teach any of our dogs to bite," he said. "They're pure love – you can't teach them to bite and be pure love. It doesn't go hand in hand."

"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade," a proverb says. So when a wicked winter weather dumped buckets of rain in California over the weekend, a man seized the chance to wakeboard down the drenched street.
The Ulocal user submitted a video of an extreme sports enthusiast riding his wakeboard over the flood waters in his neighborhood. The man in a black wetsuit held tight to a rope as he was being towed by a white SUV along a swamped street in Lodi City.
"Neighbors wakeboarding in front of my house," wrote Ulocal uploader belowpar.
Torrential downpours left 15 to 20 inches of rain in several areas of the state that triggered flashfloods, toppled trees, and caused power outages.

DENVER � Democrats passed their five remaining gun bills through the Senate on Monday, a major milestone on the bills� torturous journey through the Legislature.
Monday�s votes came after a daylong debate Friday that lasted until nearly midnight and that saw Democrats withdraw two of their most controversial bills.
The bills that died Friday would have banned concealed weapons on college campuses and imposed legal liability on the owners and sellers of many types of guns.
The surviving bills would require background checks on private-party gun sales, charge gun buyers for their background checks, mandate in-person training for concealed weapons permits, force some domestic violence suspects to give up their guns and ban ammunition magazines larger than 15 rounds.
Sen. Morgan Carroll, D-Aurora, argued for her background-check bill, saying it will prevent criminals from getting guns.
�There is no way other than a background check to make sure those folks don�t access firearms,� Carroll said. �If we fail to close this loophole, we are saying that the difference between law-abiding citizens and criminals isn�t worth making.�
Republicans saved their strongest opposition for the bill banning larger ammunition magazines.
Sen. Greg Brophy, R-Wray, said he would break the law if it passes.
�I�m going to tell you right now: I will not obey this law,� Brophy said.
Sen. Ellen Roberts, R-Durango, said Republicans are not �right-wing wackos� for opposing the magazine limit because some gun owners fear civil unrest.
�I look at Syria today, I look at Egypt today � again, I don�t think it�s �lunatic fringe� to have concerns about that,� Roberts said.
Also, people in rural areas are often far away from police protection, she said.
Throughout the debate, Republicans have charged Democrats with kowtowing to the White House and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a gun-control advocate.
�Please do not be confused that the goals and objectives of Barack Hussein Obama, of Joe Biden, of Michael Bloomberg, are the same goals and objectives of the majority of your constituents,� said Sen. Steve King, R-Grand Junction.
King made reference to a call that Biden made to Rep. Mike McLachlan, D-Durango, to lobby for several of the bills. Opponents are trying to recall McLachlan for his votes on gun control.
�I look forward to the vice president of the United States coming to Colorado and going to Durango to help the representative on his recall election. He owes him that,� King said.
The debate has put legislators through a trying month, sometimes with violent overtones.
Sen. Jessie Ulibarri, D-Commerce City, said he and other legislators have gotten death threats. One man told him he carried an AR-15 �to keep Mexicans out of Colorado.�
�In one breath, someone says, �I�m a law-abiding gun owner,� and in the next says, �I really can�t wait until your child is raped,�� Ulibarri said. �It is very, very difficult for me to stand here and say this debate has been civil, or that there are folks who aren�t wishing me and my family harm using the tools and implements that we�re discussing today.�
Roberts became one of the first two Republicans to support any of the Democrats� gun bills when she voted to require in-person training to get a concealed-weapons permit.
Most of the bills will have to go to the House for further votes before they pass the full Legislature.

I have Dudley over Jackson and he had a higher +/- too. Dudley made a lot of hustle plays and made his shots.
We are missing the wizards game btw.
Yea think CP3 should get a plat for that game. It was nuts.
I would give Bronze to Dudley actually. Made some timely threes, and did what we all expected him to do at the start of the season.
I don't think there is enough medals to go around for the game, Platinum to the team as a whole in my opinion.
Collison played well, Green hit some good shots, everyone but Hollins and Jamison played great. Hollins could at least get an A for effort.
LOL. Hollins always gets an A for effort. Pity he hasn't got the BBall IQ to match.
DJ get the bronze. Dudley should get something for finally having a decent game. He stunk it up until the end but came through by making his last 4 shots to get him to 50%.
I see it this way;
Plat-BG (the end to end lay up combined with taking a charge on the other end sealed that for me)
Silver-Giving it to Duds & Jackson, thought Jackson made key buckets that kept pressure on the Spurs
Bronze-Eh, don't think anyone deserves bronze. Give it to Mullens for trying to Glom on to BG & DJ's interview after the game.
PS-Did anyone catch DJ holding the belt in the first couple seconds of that interview as if to imply, "we spanked 'em"? Freaking awesome
I like the Platinum thing, lol
Gold-Blake Dominating the game
Silver-CP3 controlling the game
Bronze-DJ Changing the game on Defense, and controlling Tony Parker with his Pic & Roll defense.
I would have giving Bronze to DJ. His defensive intesity really set the tone.
Especially when we couldn't score in the first quarter. He was dominating the paint.
And that one block where he sent it back and ran back for the lob was a crucial
momentum swing. He did get in a lil foul Trouble on some BS, but overall he
did an excellent job on duncan who was averaging 18ppm his last 3 games.
Don MacLean used his post-game comments to compliment Willie Green, who deserves some piece of a medal this game. I watched the replay yesterday, and the guy just hit some big shots when we needed it. IMO, he even hit the dagger 3 to blow open the game in the final minutes. It was off a sweet little jab step and rise over the defender. It was smooth enough where I thought it was Jamal at first - But no, it was slick Willie being the pro that he is!
Good call on Willie
Slightly OT, does anyone know how I can get a message to one of the moderators? I PM both of them the other day and have not gotten any response.
Clippers Vs. Pelicans - 2013-12-18
Gold: Blake Griffin - Still manages a 20-10-5 game with foul trouble in under 30 minutes.
Silver: DeAndre Jordan - Proves he is one of the best rebounders in the NBA, this time with 20 of them.
Bronze: Jared Dudley - Has really upped his game since the Cleveland game. 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists.
-------------------------Medal List-------------------------------------
Platinum Medal
Gold Medal
DJ Has to get gold man! 14-20-5
I would say DJ for gold as well and Blake for Silver.
I agree. While we can't underestimate the importance of Blake's 3rd quarter in this win, DJ was GIGANTIC in this game!
Clippers Vs. Nuggets - 2013-12-21
Gold: Blake Griffin - His second great game in a row, 24 points, 16 rebounds, and 4 assists; beast.
Silver: Jamal Crawford - Highest scorer of the game including some incredible threes.
Bronze: Matt Barnes - Solid come-back game even when he was missing for a month.
I agree wholeheartedly Battlegun!
Clippers Vs. Timberwolves - 2013-12-22
Gold: Blake Griffin - Another solid scoring performance, too bad he couldn't handle Love.
Silver: Jamal Crawford - Great all-around game with 18 points, 5 assists, and 4 rebounds.
Bronze: Chris Paul - If he scored more, we probably would have won the game before it went into overtime. Still, nails most of the clutch baskets and free-throws.
Battlegun, I have to utterly disagree with you on these rankings.
Gold goes to Jared Dudley for his clutch shooting.
Silver goes to Blake for a great all around game.
Bronze to Crawford for helping keep us in the game.
Tin for CP3 for hitting some clutch free throws.
No way can I give Blake gold with the way he got torched.
I would say gold goes to Collison for 8-12 shooting(might be an unpopular pick). The rest are debatable. Not sure what I think of Blake and DJ when they get destroyed like that defensively.
Dudley was very solid today despite not shooting all that well. He got 4 steals and made a crucial shot when we needed him. CP3 was terrible early but did do better down the stretch and he was responsible for that steal that led to a Collison layup for OT. Crawford also good. I can't make up my mind tbh.
Gotta give the game ball to Blake. When we were down 5 and we missed like 5 easy baskets in a row, Blake had the second and third efforts to finally bring us within 3.
Way to hard on Blake. It's one thing if Love's baskets were easy. Practically all of Love's baskets on Blake were tough ones. You know sometimes great players play great. And Love hit shots tonight he doesn't normally against Blake. Gotta hand it to him tonight.
Gold- Ryan Hollins not fouling and giving up an and-1 in closing minutes
Silver - Ryan Hollins guarding Pek and Love and Not Fouling
Bronze - Doc Rivers telling Ryan Hollins not to foul and resigning him for his Lockdown D
Collision was huge for us, but Blake's heart kept us in it at the end of regulation. There are a lot of plays we couldn't have won without, but down 5, Blake made up his mind that he was gonna score, and grabbed every one of his missed shots until he did.
I agree Love hit some tough shots(superstar players do that) but still I have a hard time giving a guy gold when someone scored 40+ points on them. Just my opinion. I think this was Collison's best game as a Clipper so far.
Shocking moment!
YEa but nobody could have stopped love tonight. He was hitting really tight contested shots. Not like a bunch of missed assignments.
Although DJ needs to get smacked upside the head for allowing all those Offensive rebounds.
Well let's put it like this...without Blake's play? How would this game have gone?
Considering our backups for the PF spot are Jamison and Mullens pretty bad.
Anyway I guess I am being a bit harsh. I still think Collison deserves gold. Not because he was more important but because he played better relative to his normal play.
Blake with 32 points, 10 rebounds but 4 steals! 10-11 from the FT line! Blake might just make it to 70% FT shooting. I'll crap my pants if I see him do that by the end of the season.
Clippers Vs. Warriors - 2013-12-25
Gold: DeAndre Jordan - Didn't miss a shot, pulled down 12 boards and 6 rejections.
Silver: Blake Griffin - Was having a great game before he was ejected.
Bronze: Chris Paul - Very similar game to the Minnesota one. Struggled shooting at first, but made clutch baskets, except the last one.
Give platinum, gold, silver, bronze, copper, green, blue, yellow, orange, and red medals to the refs. Literally the worst game i have ever seen. If i didn't just buy a ps4 i would have done something extremely destructive
Medals for everyone. Very proud they tried to win so badly in spite of the dire situation with Blake. And almost pulled it out. Cant argue with your list, though.
Clippers Vs. Blazers - 2013-12-26
Gold: Chris Paul - Yet another clutch performance with no finish. Breaks out of his small slump, 34 points, 15 assists, and 5 steals.
Silver: Blake Griffin - Leading scorer of the game, continues his incredible play.
Bronze: Jamal Crawford - Scores his usual 20 a game.
Agree. Normally I hate the idea of giving medals when we lose but our guys gave their best effort. Wish we got more from our role players.
Clippers Vs. Jazz - 2013-12-28
Platinum - Blake Griffin - Very aggressive, especially in the fourth quarter when we needed him. First 40 points in a while.
Gold: Chris Paul - A nice all-around game, 21 Pts, 9 assists, 10 rebounds, and 5 steals.
Silver: DeAndre Jordan - Yet another 12+ rebound performance.
Bronze: Matt Barnes - Quiet performance but solid in everything.
Didn't see the game but from highlights and his numbers looks like Blake continues in hyper beast mode. That makes me happy as does the W.
Clippers Vs. Suns - 2013-12-30
Let's just get this out of the way.
Gold: DeAndre Jordan - 19 rebounds.
Silver: Chris Paul - 11 points, 7 assists, and 4 rebounds.
Bronze: Jared Dudley - 9 points and 4 rebounds. 3-5 Shooting.
Platinum: Dragic
We shouldn't give awards for this game, or any blowout loss for that matter.
Gold DJ Put in your all star vote
Silver- Dudley
Bronze-- a tie
Hollins, Jamison, Wayans and Bullock for not playing and embarrassing themselves.
They shut Paul and everybody else down
Lawler and Smith. I watched on Phoenix's Prime ticket. You have no idea how much most announcers suck.
"well ya can't win if you don't put the ball in the hoop" I guess that if it's said with enough conviction you may convince a few people that it wasn't just a waste of decibels.
"Blake just out stronged him!"
"Sorry but out stronged is not a word"
"Hee Hee It is if you're from the ghetto" I spent a lot of time there. It didn't come from the ghetto it came from between his buttocks.
Boy do I feel better after that rant. At least our announcers are better than PHX's
I wouldn't give Dudley anything here. Sure he ended up with points, but it was in garbage time. He made literally NO impact when it counted. I guess nobody did, but over Blake? I get that BG turned the ball over a lot. I get he didn't shoot the ball well...yet he STILL made more of a positive impression on this game than Dudley.
As far as Blake have you ever played bridge? The paint was like a game. Three Suns and Blake. It was amazing listening to the Phoenix pseudo commentators. One was Marv Albert's brother. Blake was pit in a hadlock and almost thrown down and they complained that he got super star status although they treated him like one. Refs were OK though
"pit in a hadlock" LOL this took me a while to work out. Olive pitt in a Haddock maybe?
Clippers Vs. Bobcats - 2014-01-01
Gold: Blake Griffin - Yet another terrific game, this time with a shooting exhibition. 31 and 12 game.
Silver: Jared Dudley - On fire with the three in the 3rd quarter. Ends up with 20 points.
Bronze: Chris Paul - All medal winners performed terrifically. Chris with 17 points, 14 assists, and 4 rebounds.
I think Dudley deserves the Gold. He really kept us in it all night long.
Either Dudley or Blake for gold and CP3 for bronze.
Clippers Vs. Mavericks- 2014-01-03
Gold: DeAndre Jordan - Picked up the scoring pace when Chris Paul went down. Usual rebounding numbers with 18.
Silver: Blake Griffin - Scored the clutch buckets that would normally be in Chris' hands. A beast 25, 14, 5 game.
Bronze: Darren Collison - Aggressive from start to finish and ended with 22 points.
Even though DJ goes for career high 25 points i think he still gets a gold... No platinum yet..

The interior of St. Andrew's Church, West Dean (near Chichester), Sussex seems modern and light, which is not what you would expect from the outside. A memorial stone set into the wall not far from the door explains why.
On the 26th November 1934 the church was almost completely destroyed by fire. According to a report in The Times newspaper the following day the Fire Brigade "were practically helpless owing to lack of water, West Dean being in an area which has suffered severely from a deficiency of water owing to the droughts of the last two summers."
The same report records that a "very fine Elizabethan full-sized recumbant figure is badly damaged, and a life-size recumbent figure of the late Mr. Willie James [a former owner of West Dean Park]by Sir Goscombe John has been destroyed."
In the article the Vicar (Rev. H.E. Lyne) described how the fire was first spotted, "Miss V. Smith, of West Drayton, saw smoke and flames when she was practising at the organ in the church. She immediately dashed for help, but the roof and everything was ablaze in about 20 minutes. I was out at the time, and did not get back till the roof had fallen in."
As should be obvious from the memorial stone the church was restored, according to the Chichester Observer (Wedenesday, 15th April 1936), "The restoration of St. Andrew's Parish Church, West Dean, which was destroyed by fire in November, 1934, was completed last week and the dedication of the new building took place on Saturday morning in time for the Easter services."
The Bishop appears to have used the dedication to encourage the continued attendance of the parishioners every week:
It was a house of God worthy of the God they came to worship, and he urged them to come there Sunday by Sunday to worship Him. There was no reason why the Church should not be as full every Sunday as it was on this occasion. "If it is not to be a witness of our work," he said, "it might almost as well never have been rebuilt"
For the family historian one concern would be the survival of parish registers in such a devastating fire. Fortunately in this case it appears that the registers were safely stored in a fireproof safe and they are now held at the West Sussex Record Office.

High school football brings people together. They turn out in throngs to cheer for the teenagers who play the sport, but they also gather to socialize with friends and family.
In some communities, the local gridiron contest is the biggest event of the week, attracting enthusiastic, standing-room-only crowds whose roars can be heard for miles.
South Carolina's 2013 season kicks off tonight, and eight of the 10 teams in the Aiken Standard's coverage area will be in action.
Strom Thurmond has a home game in Edgefield against Silver Bluff. South Aiken, North Augusta and Wagener-Salley will host Richland Northeast, T.L. Hanna and Latta, respectively.
Fox Creek will travel to Dreher; Ridge Spring-Monetta will journey to Pelion and Williston-Elko will go on the road to face Edisto.
All games will begin at 7:30 p.m.
Aiken and Midland Valley will be idle. Their seasons don't begin until next Friday.
Meet some of Aiken County's residents who can't wait to enjoy tonight's gridiron action:
The booster
Hank Hammond is in his second year as the president of the North Augusta Yellow Jacket Club.
"I don't think the common football fan realizes how much work goes into getting ready for football season," Hammond said. "Last Saturday, our booster club did its membership blitz. Our athletes went out and solicited memberships from the community, and they raised more than $26,000."
Putting together football programs, which feature the teams' rosters and are sold at each home game, also takes time. The Yellow Jacket Club also has been busy trying to get the new video board ready for tonight's game.
"It's funded by corporate sponsors, and it's like a big television screen on top of a scoreboard," Hammond said. "It will show replays, advertisements and announcements involving North Augusta High School."
Wet weather this summer caused some delays, "but we totally expect it to be working tonight," Hammond said on Wednesday.
The teacher
"This is my time of year, and I can't wait; I love my Rebel football," said Libba Ingram, who teaches Storm Thurmond students about government. She also oversees a class that focuses on women and minorities in United States history.
A Strom Thurmond graduate, Ingram, is especially excited about the school's newly renovated football stadium. The cost of the improvements totaled $2.5 million.
"It's wonderful," Ingram said. "The visitors' side is now the home side, and we've got a field house, a new scoreboard and some other great stuff. It truly looks like a small college football stadium now."
Ingram plans to wear an outfit that will incorporate the school's red white and navy blue colors. And she'll arrive early to find a seat that is in the student section and near Strom Thurmond's marching band.
"I'll be standing up the whole game," she said. "I teach nearly all the players who will be out there on the field, plus the cheerleaders and the band members. I'm going to be cheering for all of them."
The band member
Mustafah Burnett, 14, is eager to make his debut as a member of South Aiken's marching band.
"I'm going to have a blast; it will be the best time of my life," said the freshman, who plays the trumpet. "Ever since the since the sixth grade, I've looked forward to being in the marching band."
According to Burnett, the band's performance at a high school football game is important.
"It's the band's role to get everybody excited during a game and to make sure that everybody has a great time," he said. "We'll be playing 'pump up' music like do 'All I Do Is Win' and our fight song."
The student
Meagen Bryant, a junior at Silver Bluff, plans to travel to Edgefield for the Bulldogs' game. She'll be going with her aunt, Darlene Jackson.
"We hardly ever beat them, but I hope we win this weekend," she said. "We have a great team this year even though we lost a lot of seniors. I think our boys can do it."
Bryant, 16, attends all of Silver Bluff's home contests and travels to the away games when the trip isn't too long.
"Sometimes I sit and watch the game, but usually I walk around a lot," she said. "I like hanging out with my friends and having fun and laughing."
The cheerleader
Morgan Leigh Desmond won't get to watch much of South Aiken's season opening game because she's a varsity cheerleader. That means she'll be working hard to show school spirit and trying to get the crowd to do the same.
"You get such a rush cheering in front of everyone," she said. "We'll do offense and defense cheers and timeout cheers. The home games are more fun than the away games because more of your classmates are there."
Sometimes Desmond, 15, and her fellow squad members will do stunts, and that's the part of cheerleading that she enjoys the most.
"It's challenging and interesting to try new things and put people up in the air," said Desmond, who is a sophomore.
Desmond described herself as a "big fan" of the National Football League's Green Bay Packers.
"I love high school football just the same," she added.
Dede Biles is a general assignment reporter for the Aiken Standard and has been with the newspaper since January 2013. A native of Concord, N.C., she graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

We should have been in Kent today walking the next section of the North Downs Way, but given that it was also likely to be the hottest day of the year so far we thought it would be wise to find a route where we could finish early if things got too hot.
The section from Guildford to Farnham is either the start or end of the North Downs Way, and it is part of the route that we had so far not done, having started somewhere near the middle and heading east. So we decided we should walk part of this section, with the understanding that we probably wouldn't complete the full 11 miles today. In the end we made as far as Seale, Surrey, which was about 7 miles.
To be honest this was a rather disappointing part of the North Downs Way, it didn't feel like we were actually on the North Downs, there were no real hills to speak of, so there were virtually no interesting views to speak of, the best I could find was the one below, which shows how flat the landscape was.
There were a few interesting sights along the way, one of the most bizarre was the huge wooden cross on a bridge near the village of Compton, Surrey. The bridge with the cross (actually crosses because there is one on the other side as well) carries the B3000 road. Apparently the crosses indicate that road passing beneath is part of the Pilgrim's Way.
Another interesting thing about this walk is that for a large part of it the path was very sandy, in fact it was almost like walking on a beach (shame I didn't pack a bucket and spade). I am not a geologist, but it appears to be natural, and we saw at least one sand pit nearby. It is not the only part of the route to have sandy paths, the paths leading up St Martha's Hill to the east of Guildford were also thick with sand.
The village of Seale was quite pretty, but for us it marked the end of our walk, because there is a bus stop nearby on the A31 which would take us to Guildford (by way of Farnham, so we did get there in the end). The war memorial at Seale has one of the finest backdrops I have seen.

They've taken the next step in the process and formally charged him. Has until May 27th to respond. It's nice to see dates scheduled on this whole mess.
Took long enough
Yeah I was wondering when the next step would be taken. Keep it rolling I say!
As long as the team is formally out of his hands by July 1st, I expect Doc to stay and the players to follow suit.
Greatest Offseason Acquisition -- Donald T Sterling... The dreaded owner that has plagued our team for years. Guys! I believe if Donald is gone his curse will be lifted off of us and things like free agents and officiating will be more our way
Don't think "acquisition" is the right word, LOL.
The opposite is what is required
Our greatest gain will be a loss this offseason
What if Sterling died? Would that speed up or derail the process?
You're not planning something are you? Cos I just need to say right now, much as we all love the Clips it's just not worth it.
I think Clipper Kyle meant to say best thing ever will be the "divestiture" of DTS
All and all this truly could be the moment where we become recognized as a true organization not just a basketball team owned by a racist slumlord.
SShhh,NSA listening
If he croaks before they vote, the team would automatically be under the control of Shelly Sterling as his widow. Since she hasn't done anything wrong (at least, not regarding this incident) it would probably be harder to take the franchise away from her than it will be to take it away from him. I guess they could just not approve her as a governor, but there's nothing to say she couldn't just leave Parsons in place to make all the decisions while she just took the profits. Hard to see how the NBA could fight that seeing as how it was they who installed him.
In short, the absolute worst thing Donald could do to the Clippers is to snuff it in the next month or so... so knowing him, that's probably what he'll do.

You will notice that sun and shade patterns change during the day. The western side of a house may even be shady due to shadows cast by large trees or a structure from an adjacent property. If you have just bought a new home or just beginning to garden in your older home, take time to map sun and shade throughout the day. You will get a more accurate feel for your site's true light conditions. Conditions : Full to Partial Sun Full sunlight is needed for many plants to assume their full potential. Many of these plants will do fine with a little less sunlight, although they may not flower as heavily or their foliage as vibrant. Areas on the southern and western sides of buildings usually are the sunniest. The only exception is when houses or buildings are so close together, shadows are cast from neighboring properties. Full sun usually means 6 or more hours of direct unobstructed sunlight on a sunny day. Partial sun receives less than 6 hours of sun, but more than 3 hours. Plants able to take full sun in some climates may only be able to tolerate part sun in other climates. Know the culture of the plant before you buy and plant it! Conditions : Types of Pruning Types of pruning include: pinching, thinning, shearing and rejuvenating.
Pinching is removing the stem tips of a young plant to promote branching. Doing this avoids the need for more severe pruning later on.
Thinning involves removing whole branches back to the trunk. This may be done to open up the interior of a plant to let more light in and to increase air circulation that can cut down on plant disease. The best way to begin thinning is to begin by removing dead or diseased wood.
Shearing is leveling the surface of a shrub using hand or electric shears. This is done to maintain the desired shape of a hedge or topiary.
Rejuvenating is removal of old branches or the overall reduction of the size of a shrub to restore its original form and size. It is recommended that you do not remove more than one third of a plant at a time. Remember to remove branches from the inside of the plant as well as the outside. When rejuvenating plants with canes, such as nandina, cut back canes at various heights so that plant will have a more natural look. Conditions : Light and Plant Selection For best plant performance, it is desirable to match the correct plant with the available light conditions. Right plant, right place! Plants which do not receive sufficient light may become pale in color, have fewer leaves and a "leggy" stretched-out appearance. Also expect plants to grow slower and have fewer blooms when light is less than desirable. It is possible to provide supplemental lighting for indoor plants with lamps. Plants can also receive too much light. If a shade loving plant is exposed to direct sun, it may wilt and/or cause leaves to be sunburned or otherwise damaged. Conditions : Full Sun Full Sun is defined as exposure to more than 6 hours of continuous, direct sun per day.
Irrigation maybe used to supplement watering, but takes a creative turn in the form of drip systems and recycled catch water. Organic mulches in the form of compost, straws, and barks are also used to retain as much water as possible. In extremely dry areas, it is not uncommon for gravel and rocks to serve as the mulch.
A xeriphytic landscape is one that takes your particular site into consideration. A plant that maybe considered low water usage in one area of the country, may not be in another area, due to climatic stresses. Problems : Waterlogged Soil and Solutions Waterlogged soil occurs when more water is added to soil than can drain out in a reasonable amount of time. This can be a severe problem where water tables are high or soils are compacted. Lack of air space in waterlogged soil makes it almost impossible for soil to drain. Few plants, except for bog plants, can tolerate these conditions. Drainage must be improved if you are not satisfied with bog gardening. Over-watered plants
have the same wilted leaves as under-watered plants. Fungi such as Phytophthora and Pythium affect vascular systems, which cause wilt.
If the problem is only on the surface, it maybe diverted to a drainage ditch. If drainage is poor where water table is high, install an underground drainage system. You should contact a contractor for this. If underground drains already exist, check to see if they are blocked.
French drains are another option. French drains are ditches that have been filled with gravel. It is okay to plant sod on top of them. More obtrusive, but a good solution where looks aren't as important, think of the French drain as a ditch filled with gravel. Ditches should be 3 to 4 feet deep and have sloping sides.
A soakway is a gravel filled pit where water is diverted to via underground pipes. This works well on sites that have compacted soil. Your soakway should be about 6'wide and deep and filled with gravel or crushed stone, topped with sand and sodded or seeded.
Keep in mind that it is illegal to divert water onto other people's property. If you do not feel that you can implement a workable solution on your own, call a contractor. Tools : Watering Aides No gardener depends 100% on natural rainfall. Even the most water conscious
garden appreciates the proper hose, watering can or wand.
* The key to watering is water deeply and less frequently. When watering, water
well, i.e. provide enough water to thoroughly saturate the root ball. With
in-ground plants, this means thoroughly soaking the soil until water has
penetrated to a depth of 6 to 7 inches (1' being better). With container grown plants, apply enough water to allow water to flow through the drainage holes.
* Try to water plants early in the day or later in the afternoon to conserve
water and cut down on plant stress. Do water early enough so that water has
had a chance to dry from plant leaves prior to night fall. This is paramount
if you have had fungus problems.
* Don't wait to water until plants wilt. Although some plants will recover from this,
all plants will die if they wilt too much (when they reach the permanent
wilting point).
* Consider water conservation methods such as drip irrigation, mulching, and
xeriscaping. Drip systems which slowly drip moisture directly on the root
system can be purchased at your local home and garden center. Mulches can significantly cool the root zone
and conserve moisture.
* Consider adding water-saving gels to the root zone which will hold a reserve
of water for the plant. These can make a world of difference especially under
stressful conditions. Be certain to follow label directions for their use.
Conditions : Normal Watering for Outdoor Plants Normal watering means that soil should be kept evenly moist and watered regularly, as conditions require. Most plants like 1 inch of water a week during the growing season, but take care not to over water. The first two years after a plant is installed, regular watering is important for establishment. The first year is critical. It is better to water once a week and water deeply, than to water frequently for a few minutes.
Deciduous trees like maples (those that loose their leaves in the fall) can be dug up and sold with their bare roots exposed. Because most of the root system is lost in digging, sufficient top growth should be removed to compensate for this loss. This may be done at the nursery before you buy the plant or you may have to prune at the time of planting. Select and head back the best scaffold branches, i.e. those branches which will form the main lateral structure of the future mature tree. Remove all other extraneous side branches. If the tree seedling does not have branches, allow it to grow to the desired height of branching then pinch it back to stimulate the lower buds to form branches.
Ball and burlap trees are dug up with their root systems somewhat intact. This was mostly done for conifers and broadleaf evergreens, but has become common for deciduous trees as well. Since some root mass is lost in the digging stage, a light pruning is generally called for. Head back the plant to compensate for this loss and to promote branching.
Trees that are grown in containers generally do not loose roots in the transplanting phase. Therefore you do not generally have to prune them unless there is some root injury or limb damage in the planting process.
Once you have your trees planted, be patient. Do not remove shoots from the trunk early on as these allow the tree to grow more rapidly and also shade the tender young trunk from sun-scald. Wait a few years to begin training the tree to its ultimate form. How-to : Staking Trees Staking is done differently depending on the size and flexibility of the
tree, and the windiness of the planting site. Generally only trees that are planted in windy, exposed locations need to be staked. For most trees, a low stake is
preferred, to let the tree move naturally. For windy areas or flexible trees,
use a high stake. For trees more than 12 feet tall, use two low stakes on
opposite sides of the tree or several guy ropes. The ties used need to
accommodate growth and not cause bark damage with friction. Buckle-and-spacer
ties can be found at garden centers, they are expandable and have a protective
spacer. Ties without spacers should be formed into a figure eight to create
padding. Latest studies have shown that when staking a tree, provide enough
leeway so that the tree can move back and forth in the wind. Stronger roots will
develop this way. If the tree can not move back and forth, these important roots
will not develop and the tree might fall over during a storm, once stakes are removed. When planting a tree, stake at the time of planting if staking is a necessity. How-to : Planting a Tree Dig out an area for the tree that is about 3 or 4 times the diameter of the container or rootball
and the same depth as the container or rootball. Use a pitchfork or shovel to scarify the sides of the
If container-grown, lay the tree on its side and remove the container. Loosen
the roots around the edges without breaking up the root ball too much. Position tree in center of hole so that the best side faces forward. You are ready to begin filling in with soil.
If planting a balled and burlaped tree, position it in hole so that the best side faces forward. Untie or remove nails from burlap at top of ball and pull burlap back, so it does not stick
out of hole when soil is replaced. Synthetic burlap should be removed as it will not decompose like natural burlap. Larger trees often come in
wire baskets. Plant as you would a b&b plant, but cut as much of the wire away
as possible without actually removing the basket. Chances are, you would do more
damage to the rootball by removing the basket.
Simply cut away wires to leave several large openings for roots.
Fill both holes with soil the same way. Never amend with less than half original soil.
Recent studies show that if your soil is loose enough, you are better off adding little or no soil amendments.
Create a water ring around the outer edge of the hole. Not only will this
conseve water, but will direct moisture to perimeter roots, encouraging
outer growth. Once tree is established, water ring may be leveled. Studies show that mulched trees grow faster than those unmulched,
so add a 3"" layer of pinestraw, compost, or pulverized bark over backfilled
area. Remove any damaged limbs.
Rhizoctonia is a fungus that is found in most soils and enters the plant
through the roots or the stem at soil level.
Prevention and Control: First of all, do not overwater and if you suspect
Rhizoctonia may be your problem, decrease watering. If a plant is too far gone
(all the leaves from the bottom up are wilted), remove it. If your plant is in a container, discard the soil too.
Wash the pot with a 1 part bleach to 9 parts water solution.
Fungicides can be used, according to label directions. Consult a professional for a legal recommendation of what fungicide to use.
Pest : Aphids Aphids are small, soft-bodied, slow-moving insects that suck fluids from plants. Aphids come in many colors, ranging from green to brown to black, and they may have wings. They attack a wide range of plant species causing stunting, deformed leaves and buds. They can transmit harmful plant viruses with their piercing/sucking mouthparts. Aphids, generally, are merely a nuisance, since it takes many of them to cause serious plant damage. However aphids do produce a sweet substance called honeydew (coveted by ants) which can lead to an unattractive black surface growth called sooty mold.
Aphids can increase quickly in numbers and each female can produce up to 250 live nymphs in the course of a month without mating. Aphids often appear when the environment changes - spring & fall. They're often massed at the tips of branches feeding on succulent tissue. Aphids are attracted to the color yellow and will often hitchhike on yellow clothing.
Prevention and Control: Keep weeds to an absolute minimum, especially around desirable plants. On edibles, wash off infected area of plant. Lady bugs and lacewings will feed on aphids in the garden. There are various products - organic and inorganic - that can be used to control aphids. Seek the recommendation of a professional and follow all label procedures to a tee. Fungi : Powdery Mildew Powdery Mildew is usually found on plants that do not have enough air circulation or adequate light. Problems are worse where nights are cool and days are warm and humid. The powdery white or gray fungus is usually found on the upper surface of leaves or fruit. Leaves will often turn yellow or brown, curl up, and drop off. New foliage emerges crinkled and distorted. Fruit will be dwarfed and often drops early.
Prevention and Control: Plant resistant varieties and space plants properly so they receive adequate light and air circulation. Always water from below, keeping water off the foliage. This is paramount for roses. Go easy on the nitrogen fertilizer. Apply fungicides according to label directions before problem becomes severe and follow directions exactly, not missing any required treatments. Sanitation is a must - clean up and remove all leaves, flowers, or debris in the fall and destroy. Diseases : Pythium and Phytophtora Root Rot Rot Rot, Pythium or Phytophthora occurs when soil
moisture levels are excessively high and fungal spores present in the soil, come
in contact with the susceptible plant. The base of stems discolor and shrink,
and leaves further up the stalk wilt and die. Leaves near base are affected
first. The roots will turn black and rot or break. This fungi can be introduced
by using unsterilized soil mix or contaminated water.
Prevention and Control Remove affected plants and their roots, and discard surrounding soil. Replace with plants that are not susceptible, and only use fresh, sterilized soil mix. Hold back on fertilizing too. Try not to
over water plants and make sure that soil is well drained prior to planting.
This fungus is not treatable by chemicals.
Rhizoctonia Root and Stem Rot symptoms look similar to Pythium Root Rot, but the Rhizoctonia fungus seems to thrive in well drained soils. Pest : Scale Insects Scales are insects, related to mealy bugs, that can be a problem on a wide variety of plants - indoor and outdoor. Young scales crawl until they find a good feeding site. The adult females then lose their legs and remain on a spot protected by its hard shell layer. They appear as bumps, often on the lower sides of leaves. They have piercing mouth parts that suck the sap out of plant tissue. Scales can weaken a plant leading to yellow foliage and leaf drop. They also produce a sweet substance called honeydew (coveted by ants) which can lead to an unattractive black surface fungal growth called sooty mold.
Prevention and Control: Once established they are hard to control. Isolate infested plants away from those that are not infested. Consult your local garden center professional or Cooperative Extension office in your county for a legal recommendation regarding their control. Encourage natural enemies such as parasitic wasps in the garden. Diseases : Blight Blights are cause by fungi or bacteria that kill plant tissue. Symptoms often show up as the
rapid spotting or wilting of foliage. There are many different blights, specific
to various plants, each requiring a varied method of control.
You will often
hear loam referred to as a sandy loam (having more sand, yet still plenty of
organic matter) or a clay loam (heavier on the clay, yet workable with good
drainage.) The addition of organic matter to either sand or clay will result
in a loamy soil. Still not sure if your soil is a sand, clay, or loam? Try
this simple test. Squeeze a handfull of slightly moist, not wet, soil in your
hand. If it forms a tight ball and does not fall apart when gently tapped
with a finger, your soil is more than likely clay. If soil does not form a
ball or crumbles before it is tapped, it is sand to very sandy loam. If soil forms a
ball, then crumbles readily when lightly tapped, it's a loam. Several quick, light
taps could mean a clay loam. Glossary : Topiary A topiary is a plant that has been pruned and trained to have an
artificial form. Popular since Roman times, topiary was a way of
introducing architectural and animal forms to the garden. Simple, geometric
shapes make up the classic topiary form. This time- consuming process can be minimized by training vines to grow around or in a wire or moss form.
To protect your topiary from heavy snows, netting placed over plant will add
extra support. To mend broken branches, selectivly prune away damage and tie
an existing branch into position to fill gap. If this is not possible, patience
is your next bet. To restore unkempt topiaries, severly prune to rejuvenate
original form the first spring, then follow up with several seasons of judicious
clipping. Glossary : Tolerant Tolerant refers to a plant's ability to tolerate exposure to an external condition(s). It does not mean that the plant thrives or prefers this situation, but is able to adapt and continue its life cycle. Glossary : Drought Tolerant Very few plants, except for those naturally found in desert situations, can tolerate arid soils, but there are plants that seem to be more drought tolerant than others. Plants that are drought tolerant still require moisture, so don't think that they can go for extended period without any water. Drought tolerant plants are often deep rooted, have waxy or thick leaves that conserve water, or leaf structures that close to minimize transpiration. All plants in droughty situations benefit from an occasional deep watering and a 2-3 inch thick layer of mulch. Drought tolerant plants are the backbone of xeriphytic landscaping. Glossary : Fertilize Fertilize just before new growth begins with a complete fertilizer. Glossary : Pruning Now is the preferred time to prune this plant.

With the New Year's holiday just two days away, consumers are heading out to buy fireworks to light up the new year, and local fireworks vendors are stocked and ready.
"I always think of it like an orchestra playing music," Kent Phillips of Fireworks Giant in North Augusta, said of customer traffic before the holiday. "It keeps building and building until you have the crescendo on New Year's Eve. Then it's over with."
Phillips said business started picking up on Thursday, and will get busier through New Year's Day.
"That's usually how it is every year," said Lee Eubanks, of Wacky Wayne's on Whiskey Road in Aiken. "I guess everybody waits until the new year comes."
Eubanks said the items in the store vary from smoke balls and firecrackers to bottle rockets and "finales."
"Those big ones back there; the ones you set off at the end of your show," Eubanks said.
The items range in price from 25 cents for small knickknacks to the $600 assortment package, which is about 5 feet tall.
"That's full of pretty much every product we have in this store," Eubanks said.
Many fireworks vendors agree: artillery shells – reload able fireworks shells that are shot one at a time – are in high demand this year.
Also known as mortar shells or cannons, Phillips said they are popular for a number of reasons.
"They do the big displays, like what you see at the shows," he said. "And it all burns up in the air, so it's not dangerous; it's not going to put trash everywhere."
"They're real loud and they're pretty in the sky," said Chris Creel of Rodney's Rockets, which is just feet away from Fireworks Giant in North Augusta.
Creel said the store is celebrating its grand opening, and is hoping to burst into the local fireworks market with a bang. Throughout the next few days, they'll have a variety of sales and promotions, including buy-one-get-one free on some products.
"We have a little bit of everything," he said. "We hope we get a lot more customers in. Business has been good so far in the first year, and I think it's going to be pretty good."
Phillips said it'll be interesting to see how the neighboring businesses do for the holiday.
"That'll be good for people," he said. "We keep our prices really low because we buy a lot of stuff. It's good to have something different."
With many stores and vendors in Aiken County located so close to the Georgia state line, most are expecting a high number of customers from across the Savannah River, where any type of fireworks that explode or shoot into the air are illegal.
"We do see a lot of people from out of state," Eubanks said. "They want to come and get some fireworks over here, so they can take it back to wherever they're from."
Teddy Kulmala covers the crime beat for the Aiken Standard. He is a graduate of Clemson University and hails from Williston.
