Shhh, you aren't supposed to go fast on a Sportive because it 'isn't a race' they keep telling me.
These bikes are tailored for mass-start, non-competitive events: sportives, gran fondos and Audax rides. They're great for general road riding like club runs and longer commutes too.
Sportive bikes are designed to be more comfortable for long rides by cyclists who don't have pro-level flexibility and team masseurs.
A wider and lower gear range than you'll find on a race bike is almost universal, with compact chainsets standard.
There's room for at least 25mm tyres to improve shock absorption and grip, and many recent sportive bikes will take 28mm tyres.
Disc brakes are becoming increasingly common because they offer improved stopping power, and are less affected by rain and wheel misalignment.
Sportive bikes — also known as endurance bikes — are 'softer', more comfortable versions of race-orientated road bikes. They have slightly more relaxed handling, frames tuned to smooth the ride and capacity for wider tyres along with a less stretched-out riding position. They're ideal for events and long distance rides where the extra comfort is a valuable benefit.
That makes them ideal for British riding conditions. Extra comfort from the frame and larger volume tyres (25mm and up) smooth out rough roads, the longer wheelbase makes them more stable, and the higher handlebar position reduces the strain on your back and neck. Some bikes also have shorter top tubes to bring the handlebars closer to the saddle.
One of the big changes occurring on bikes in this category is the rapid adoption of disc brakes. Discs offer increased stopping power, better all-weather performance and lower maintenance. Disc brakes really suit endurance and sportive bikes as these are the sort of bikes likely to encounter a myriad of weather and road conditions, whether in a sportive or if you simply ride year-round. And as these bikes are unlikely to be used in a road race, they don't have to conform to the rules that currently forbid disc brakes on race bikes.
An endurance bike to suit all budgets
As the list below shows, many manufacturers now offer an endurance road bike and many more are adding models to their ranges all the time. Some of the big bike manufacturers have a wide range of endurance machines with the lowest priced here starting from £500 and rising to over £8,000, so there is a bike for everyone.
At the more affordable end you can expect alloy frames and Shimano Sora giving way to Shimano 105 groupsets and carbon fibre and ever lighter compoents and wheels as you work your way up through the price ranges.
Many frames share key features across price points though so often you're getting the same comfort enhancing benefits and a degree of upgrade potential too.
What makes an endurance road bike?
In essence, an endurance road bike is very similar to a road race bike, but with geometry, specification and frame materials tuned to make them more comfortable over longer rides and rough roads.
A longer wheelbase is common, both to create space for the wider tyres and also to produce a more stable ride, especially useful over choppy surfaces. Many endurance road bikes also have a taller head tube and shorter top tube to create a more comfortable fit over longer distances. There is no fixed formula though, and details differ between manufacturers. Some offer much taller and short frames while offers opt for longer top tubes with marginally taller head tubes, so you've a wide range of choices.
Many offer frames designed to provide a smooth ride, through the carbon fibre layup, tube shaping or both. Taking things a step further Specialized and Lapierre incorporate elastomers in their endurance bike frames to help smooth the ride. Trek have taken things further still with the Domane's IsoSpeed decoupler, which makes the back end of the bike 'active' over rough terrain.
All these bikes have space for wider tyres. Most are sold with 25mm tyres as standard, but many will take a 28mm tyre which offers far more cushioning than a 23mm tyre. You can run them at lower pressures and benefit from a smoother ride without sacrificing speed.
Whether you're planning a daily commute, a sportive or charity event, or just long Sunday rides, an endurance road bike is probably ideal for you. Unless you're racing, there's little compromise in choosing an endurance road bike and taking all the benefits they offer.
Because this category is so competitive, there are literally dozens of very good bikes to choose from. The following list includes many bikes we've tested and liked, starting with some recent additions . You can't go wrong with any of them.
Mason Definition2 Ultegra Hydro — £3,130.00
The Mason Definition2 is simply a superb machine, crafted with attention-to-detail to give a ride sensation that almost defies logic. It's lively yet relaxed, delicate yet you'd take it anywhere, and is just really fun to ride. We can't imagine getting bored of it, and it puts any other alloy bike we've ridden firmly in the shade.
Read our review of the Mason Definition2 Ultegra Hydro
Giant Contend SL 1 — £998.98
The Giant Contend SL 1 is an absolutely spot-on all-day ride. It's a comfortable and versatile sportive/endurance bike with a dependable feel that encourages you to keep going and just do those extra few miles.
It takes whatever it encounters in its stride with an unflappable assurance that's just what you want in a bike for long rides, handling everything from twisty descents on smooth surfaces to tatty dirt roads, Belgian cobbles and even singletrack trails with equal aplomb.
Aside from colour, the Contend SL 1 remains virtually unchanged from 2017 to 2018.

Genesis Datum 10 2018 — £1,999.99
The Genesis Datum 10 will take pretty much whatever you can throw at it, on or off-road. The spec represents excellent value and the ability to jump between town and country use positions it as a sound contender for an 'only bike' that you won't be sheepish about getting muddy on, while being worthy of a shine-up for the Sunday morning group ride.
At launch two years ago, Dave rated the Di2 11-speed Datum 30 at 4.5/5, finding it a 'hugely capable bike that is loads of fun over all sorts of terrain'. Later that year it won our Sportive Bike of The Year Award, with only the Shimano Di2-influenced price holding it back from taking overall honours. At £3,200 in 2015 money, the Di2 version was a hefty price to pay, but the base model £1,999 10-speed Tiagra bike is a bit less painful on the bank balance. For this spec it's not a class-leadingly cheap bike, but the overall package is worthy of inclusion on anyone's to-be-considered list.

Simplon Pavo Granfondo Disc — £4,699
If big miles are your thing then Simplon's Pavo Granfondo Disc is a machine you want to take a good long look at, especially if you want to cover those miles at near race pace. The Simplon devours climbs, descents and those long tedious straights with what feels like the minimum of effort from the rider.
The Pavo Granfondo, as you can probably guess by its name, is a bike designed for those epic rides in the mountains or day-long blasts across a region or a county or two. Granfondo loosely translates from Italian as 'big ride', and this is exactly where the Pavo excels.

Ribble Gran Fondo Disc — from £1,449
Ribble has launched a disc brake-equipped version of its Gran Fondo, the endurance style bike that's been part of the range in rim-braked guise for a fair few years, and it's a fast, comfortable and affordable option for tapping out the miles.
Most of us aren't racers, we just want to cover good distances in relative comfort at a decent pace, something the Gran Fondo allows you to do thanks to a frame that is a solid all-rounder with excellent manners.
Read our review of the Ribble Grand Fondo Disc
Cube Attain GTC Pro Disc — £1,070
The Cube Attain GTC Pro Disc is an endurance road bike that offers an excellent Shimano 105 groupset, powerful hydraulic disc brakes and a smooth ride, all at an attractive price.
The Attain GTC Pro Disc isn't a lightweight, aggressive race bike, it's a bike for getting in the big miles in comfort. It's certainly up for riding fast, but smoothness is more this bike's thing. That's the most obvious characteristic of the ride.
There isn't a 2018 version of the Attain GTC Pro Disc (the closest is the Ultegra-equipped £1,800 Attain GTC Race Disc), but at 32% off the RRP of £1,700, the 2017 version is an absolute steal.

Pinnacle Dolomite 4 — £900
The Pinnacle Dolomite 4 is an excellent deal, with hydraulic disc brakes on a road bike well under £1,000. It's a pretty likeable machine that could serve as a commuter or winter bike, and rides well enough to be an enjoyable companion for all-day outings.
It ticks the practicality boxes, too, with mudguard and rear rack compatibility, and also has some unexpected modern touches such as internal cable routing.
This is the Tiagra-equipped 2017 model, which Evans still has sizes S amd M. If you want a 2018 bike, the £1,050 Pinnacle Dolomite 2 is virtually the same bike.

Kona Wheelhouse — £1,799
The Kona Wheelhouse is a quality steel do-it-all machine, with the latest tech, put together in a package sure to impress. It isn't the fastest, but it's stable and fun. And with dual thru-axles, disc brakes and wide tyre clearance, it has functionality written all over it.
The 2018 version here has a full Shimano Tiagra groupset except for TRP brakes and its Reynolds 853 frame is painted a rather gorgeous British racing green.

Wilier GTR endurance — £1,329.99-£2,300
Wilier's GTR endurance range includes bikes with Shimano's 105 and Ultegra groups, plus one each with Campagnolo's Veloce and Potenza groups. Three have rim brakes, but the one of the two 105-equipped bike gets discs, and we were impressed when we tested its 2016 equivalent. It's a quick and smooth endurance bike that offers the assured performance of Shimano's hydraulic disc brakes.
If you want something lighter, the GTR SL bikes are built around a frame that's 200g lighter and start at £2,699 RRP.

Eastway Zener D1 Ultegra — £1,920
The D1 is the top-end model in Eastway's Zener endurance range. It looks great on paper, with a carbon fibre frameset, full Shimano Ultegra groupset, hydraulic disc brakes and Mavic wheels, all for just over two grand and that positivity is carried through to the road. Under the monochrome paintjob lurks a colourful ride. It's an excellent value endurance machine with performance intentions: an awesome sportive-cum-club run bike

Giant Defy — £1,499-£7,499 & Giant Contend — £575-£1,199
In 2017, Giant split the previous best-selling Defy line in two, and that continues for 2018. The Defy group comprises three sub-families of carbon fibre-framed bikes, Defy Advanced, Defy Advanced Pro and Defy Advanced SL, all with disc brakes and starting with the Defy Advanced 3 at £1,499. The aluminium-framed Contend range is a six-bike line-up from the £575 Contend 2 to the Contend SL 1 Disc at £1,199.
Giant offers a large choice for women, in the Avail range, with alloy, composite and carbon versions.
The Defy has lay-up and tube profiles that make it a comfortable and involving bike to ride. Critically, Giant has retained the exact same geometry as the previous Defy, so if you're upgrading from an old Defy to a new model, you'll find the fit and position the same.
All the Defy models share similar frame features, with the D-Fuse seat post (and integrated seat mast on the top models), new top tube and seatstays, all contributing to a smoother ride when the road surface gets rough and bumpy. The frame also features a hugely oversized head tube and bottom bracket to ensure it provides good stiffness for responsive handling.
Of the Contend models we've ridden and liked the rim-braked Contend SL1, and the £999 Contend SL 2 Disc stands out as bike with hydraulic disc brakes for a price under the common Cycle To Work Scheme threshold.

Cube Agree — £1,242-£3,499
In 2016 Cube gave its popular carbon-framed Agree sportive bike range an aero makeover, with some models getting disc brakes too. Disc brake skeptics will be along in a moment to point out that puts you back to square one in aero terms, but at least you'll be able to stop in the square if it's wet. The 2018 range carries on in the same vein, with two disc-braked models and two with rim brakes, and there are some excellent deals around on 2017 models.

Rose Gran Fondo range — £953.09-£4,638.83*
German direct-to-consumer brand Rose launched the Xeon Team GF as a brand new bike in 2014, combining a choice of aluminium or carbon fibre frames with 'marathon' geometry, which includes a taller head tube, shorter top tube and longer wheelbase.
Rose's Marathon/gran fondo range now comprises 30 models in aluminium and carbon fiber, with lots of disc-braked options and some of the most keenly-priced bikes with Di2 electronic shifting.
On the rim-braked bikes, Rose have put the rear brake on the chainstays. That allows the seatstays to be exceptionally skinny to provide some vertical deflection. A neat touch is the easy adjustment of the head tube height, as instead of regular spacers, spacers screw directly into the head tube below the upper bearing.

*Note: Rose prices vary with the Euro/Sterling exchange rate
Boardman Road Sport — £400
Boardman Road Team Carbon — £800
It's not sold as an endurance bike as such, but the Boardman Sport is a bike that has impressed us hugely. It won the road.cc Budget Bike of the Year 2013-14 and it's worth including because it has what Boardman call sportive geometry. It's a bit racier than many of the bikes here, with a longish top tube and short head tube which isn't mega-tall for the size. It does have space for wider tyres and it comes with 25mm tyres already fitted. The frame does feature curved wishbone seatstays which Boardman claim flex slightly to increase comfort.
It's just had a facelift, but remains fundamentally the same very nice bike, and excellent value.
If it's carbon you're after the Boardman Team Carbon is essentially the Sport, but in carbon and with better wheels and an uprated groupset and for £800 it's a very good deal.
Both the Road Sport and the Road Team Carbon have recently been replaced in the Boardman range, hence the very low prices. We haven't yet tested the £550 Boardman SLR 8.6 and £1,000 Boardman SLR 8.9c, but they look to offer the excellent value for money we've come to expect from Boardman.

Cannondale Synapse — £849.99-£7,799
The Synapse is Cannondale's distance and sportive offering, and it had a major update just a couple of years ago. To provide the necessary smoothness customers demand from such bikes, Cannondale has used a combination of design features — a skinny 25.4mm seatpost, sculpted stays and shock-damping carbon layup — that together produce a buttery smooth ride.
As well as that super skinny seatpost, Cannondale has integrated the seat clamp into the top tube so there is more exposed seat tube to flex. The head tube is 2.5cm taller than the racier SuperSix Evo and the wheelbase is longer, while the reach is about the same as the Evo.
Despite the Synapse's popularity, Cannondale hasn't been twiddling its corporate thumbs. For 2018 there's an all-new Synapse targetted at providing better ride comfort with more speed and performance. While it retains a similar aesthetic to the previous model, the new Synapse is built entirely around disc brakes, is lighter with a frame weighing a claimed 950g for a size 56cm, accommodates 32mm (measured) tyres, has mudguard eyelets and a new integrated handlebar that boosts front end comfort.
The Synapse range comprises four aluminium-framed bikes and 11 with carbon frames, from £850 to £7,800. All but two — the Synapse Carbon 105 and Synapse Carbon Tiagra — have disc brakes. The £2,499 Synapse Ultegra Disc won the road.cc Bike of the Year 2014/15 Awards.

Look 765 — £1,869.15
The latest incarnation of Look's 765 endurance bikes includes flax fibres in the layup of the frameset.
"A layer of linen fibre has been positioned between the carbon thicknesses on the fork and chainstays to encourage the dissipation of vibrations," says Look.
Read our review of the Look 765
B'Twin Triban 540 — £679
Decathlon's B'Twin Triban bikes have more relaxed geometry than other models higher up the B'Twin range, placing the bars higher so the should be ideal for racking up the big miles. The 540's frame is made from 6061 aluminium and built with a largely Shimano 105 spec — recently upgraded to 11-speed — which for the asking price is very good value for money.

Trek Domane — £1,080-£9,499.99
The bike that Fabian Cancellara rode to success in the last couple of years of his career really needs little introduction. The really clever aspect of the Domane's approach to smoothing the ride is the IsoSpeed Decoupler, which separates the seat tube from the top tube so it's free to move back and forth. Trek says this means the Domane has 35mm flex at the back end.
Geometry for the Domane features a shorter top tube than you get on Trek's standard road bikes and the head tube is taller, and of course there is a longer wheelbase.
Since its launch Trek has added bump-damping IsoSpeed forks and expanded the Domane range to include less expensive models with aluminium frames starting with the Domane AL 2 at £625; bikes with IsoSpeed front and rear start at £1,000 with the Domane ALR3. In the aluminium frames, the Isospeed technology doesn't provide quite as much compliance as its carbon sibling. Carbon fibre Domanes start at £1,350 with the Domane S 4.
Trek also offers a range of nine Silque women's bikes which have the Isospeed decoupler but aren't quite "women's Domanes". Rather, the frame's stiffness and weight distribution is tailored to better suit the way a woman's body produces power.

Canyon Endurace — £799-£6,249
The range of German Internet specialist Canyon includes the Endurace bikes, which offer a more relaxed geometry than the Ultimate and Aeroad race bikes. However, where some sportive bikes have radically tall head tubes, the Canyon approach is more conservative. It's more relaxed compared than the race bikes, but is lower than something like the Specialized Roubaix below.
Offered in aluminium or carbon fibre, Canyon's Endurace VCLS (Vertical Comfort Lateral Stiffness) technology is baked into the fork and seatpost, and it's also used in the carbon frame. Canyon spec each bike with wheels featuring wider rims and tyres, so the 25mm tyres on the bike we tested recently actually measured 27mm across. That bigger volume contributes to the smoother ride.
Read our review of the Canyon Endurace CF 8.0
Specialized Roubaix — £1,900-£9,995
Specialized's Roubaix was one of the first widely-available endurance bikes. It's been through several iterations, and with the latest Specialized has added a front suspension unit with 20mm of travel to the steerer to directly absorb bumps. To look after your bum, there's the CG-R FACT carbon post from the Diverge adventure bike series.
Specialized doesn't offer a women's version of the Roubaix, but instead has the Ruby platform which shares many of the same features, including the front suspension, and each model is built with women-specific components.
BMC roadmachine — £1,299-£9,599
For 2017, BMC refocussed its roadmachine bikes on endurance riding, equipping them with disc brakes and a new frame that has space for up to 30mm tyres.
The roadmachine is available with frames made from one of two grades of carbon fibre, or aluminium. Maximum tyre width is 30mm on the carbon-framed bikes, and 32mm on the aluminium version; you'll have to go down 2mm if you're fitting mudguards. The mid-range carbon roadmachine 02 has hidden mounts for mudguards, while the aluminium roadmachine 03 takes mudguards and a rack.
All the roadmachines have 12mm through-axles front and rear and use the emerging standard 142mm rear spacing. There's a choice of Shimano spec from Tiagra all the way up to Dura-Ace.
Scott Addict & Addict Disc — £1,599-£8,999
For 2018 Scott has replaced its Solace endurance platform with a branch of the lightweight Addict family revamped to take tyres up to 32mm for the disc-braked models and 28mm for rim-braked bikes. Head tubes have been lengthened compared to the racy Addicts (now dubbed Addict RC).
There are three models each of disc-braked and rim-braked Addict.
Bianchi Infinito CV — £2,799 - £6,000
One of the most interesting endurance road bikes, because it's packing some of the latest carbon fibre technology to tame vibrations caused by riding over rough surfaces, gravel or cobbles. At the heart of the Infinito CV is a viscoelastic material incorporated into the carbon fibre layup, which Bianchi call CounterVail Vibration Cancelling Composite Technology. Or CV for short. Bianchi reckon this helps the frame to reduce high-frequency vibrations compared to a regular carbon frame, by as much as 75%.
The geometry has also been adjusted with less of the aggressiveness and savagery of their Oltre XR2 race bike. That means a taller head tube, but it's still shorter than many other bikes in this roundup, and a longer wheelbase of 100.2cm on the 55cm size. Last year Bianchi added the choice of disc brakes. While the frame looks mostly identical, it has gained 70g and the hoses are very neatly routed internally.
Another model in the Bianchi range worth considering is the Intrepida. Crucially, it offers the same geometry as the Infinito, but a lower price point due to a vastly different carbon fibre frame, without the fancy CV technology.

Lapierre Pulsium & Sensium — £1,345-£2,999
Lapierre completely revamped the Pulsium for 2017 with a clean new carbon fibre frame. The French company says the gentle curves in the top tube and seatstays provide comfort, and has dropped last year's elastomer inserts.
Up front, the carbon layup of the fork is designed to increase the flex capability and the absorption of vibration. The geometry has a 15mm taller head tube than Lapierre's Xelius EFI race bike, 4mm longer chainstays and plenty of tyre clearance for fatter rubber than the stock 25mm.

Ah, I am one of 'they', and I'm not convinced you got the message properly, so allow me to bite: here 'they' go again...
Nobody said 'don't go fast'. What people object to is the bully-boy antics of berks who treat sportives as races (and probably don't actually 'race' in 'races'). I don't think any of these bikes are rated for number of gel wrappers they enable you to drop by mile 20, or their ability to misjudge a bend and cause a pile-up, or how well they can be used to barge past some sportive newbies.
Sportives are not races. That's the difficult bit that you need to try harder to get your aero-helmeted head around. If you want to race, enter a race. It's right there, in the name of the event.
I ve entered a few. I approach them more like a time trial. A personal challenge rather than a race. And then on the hard ones just attempt to finish! If you were racing you'd probably choose a different bike anyway.
I agree though there are some who take it too seriously. Last year I had a guy sit on my wheel for a few miles at the end, refuse to go in front then 'out sprint' me to the finish. Tw@t!

Nothing wrong with that. I had somebody do exactly the same to me a few weeks back. I was gutted but fair play. To be fair I did know him and the finish was in the Roubaix velodrome.
All the bikes were geared for flat sportives, You dont need a 50t. 40-46T outer ring chainset will just do aswell married to a 28-32T granny inner ring. Stick a 11-28 cassette or 11-32 and you will go up just about anything.
Before anyone says the gearing isnt fast enough, I defy anyone to ride a 40-11 gearing on the flat at 25mph for long periods. Virtually all of us arent pro level or even cat A

Maybe not, but spinning out on a quick descent on my 50 -11 is frustrating. Spinning out sooner would spoil descending even more. Perhaps I'm in the minority.

Projection much? You seem to describing amateur racers themselves whilst simultaniously looking down your nose. Go and watch another Red Hook crash on Youtube.
Bizarre response. I'm not: I'm describing some of the less sociable behaviour by people who think sportives are races, which is why I chose the words that I did, and why you chose to ignore them.
How would you know what happens in amateur racing? You think racing is strava and sportives.
Looking down my nose? You mean disapproving of inappropriate behaviour at a sportive? Why yes - colour me a snob then, I suppose. Do you approve of it?
And wtf do crashes at red hook have to do with anything? Go and watch footage of another Ride London crash, or something.
All truths... Sportives aren't races. It's ok to want to go fast. Wheel sucking pseudo racers are wankers.
I don't get the point of your discussions? Next someone will remind us that the Earth is round, followed closely by someone else saying... "well, actually it's not exactly round... blah, blah, blah"
C'mon guys... it's not a pissing competition. Put them back in your trousers.

Spinning out a 50x11 for me with my old, knackered legs is still around 75km/h, so i'm not gutted if I can't force the pace much higher using power rather than just tucking in and getting the rest of it for free. I'm also buggered if I can think of many places in the UK that I go that this is a problem. Perhaps i'm the one in the minority...

As I continue the numerous tasks necessary to get ISN'T IT ROMANTIC? into production, I can't help but think often of my father. The one year anniversary of his death is near. He passed away last September 3. His health had been in decline for a number of years. He had poor circulation and had experienced several mini-strokes. His mind and his personality were radically different.
He was in and out of the hospital and nursing homes and as his condition worsened, required more and more care. We couldn't afford to put him in a nursing home, so my mother, brother and myself took care of him. It was difficult and very unpleasant, but he was family. How could we not do it?
I was never close to my father growing up. I was in fact, the reason he married my mother and I think on a subconscious level, he resented me for it. My father was a charming man and a womanizer. The fact that he had a wife never slowed him down. He cheated on my mother constantly. I resented him for that.
We didn't have a great relationship when I was growing up. When he wasn't working, he spent most of his time in bars. I feared him when I was young, was angry at him when I got older. It wasn't all bad. There were two things that brought us together. Like the characters portrayed by Billy Crystal, Bruno Kirby and Daniel Stern in CITY SLICKERS my father and I could always talk about sports. We also connected on movies.
Perhaps my greatest trait is my sense of humor. It is one of the main things that has kept me sane and helped me cope with my numerous issues. All I need is some time and distance and I can laugh at almost any pain that I experience. I inherited my humor from my father. I used to love watching him break up a group of people and he was a major influence in me becoming a stand up comic.
He also loved movies. Like I do now, he spent many hours watching films. He would always point out great classics to me. In his last years, he couldn't remember what he had for breakfast, but his long term memory was sharp. My brother and I would quote movies to him and he always responded. We continued to watch movies with him and I think he appreciated it.
As an adult, I made my peace with him, thankfully long before his mind went. I forgave him. He lost both his parents at a young age and I think he feared showing his love for others lest he get hurt. He didn't do it often, but there were times he told me loved me and was proud of me. His friends later told me that when I was doing stand up, he used to brag about how smart and talented I was. I cherish that to this day.
When he finally passed, I was prepared for it. At the end, he couldn't feed himself, couldn't stand up, could barely sit up, so it wasn't unexpected. I got to say goodbye to him. My brother and I went to visit him in hospice. He was laying in a fetal position connected to a breathing machine only able to blink his eyes. I leaned close and spoke to him. I told him I forgave him and that I was proud to be his son. I meant it. He was Paul Sr and I am Paul Jr. I told him I would do something with our name.
I really regret that he will never see me succeed. He thought it was great that I was a comedian and he would have loved to see me make a movie. I am going to dedicate ISN'T IT ROMANTIC? to him. He loved comedies and I hope we make a movie he would have enjoyed. Thanks, Dad. It was a rough ride but you are a big part of who I am today.

The comment illustrates the abuse of the term "drive-by media." It's frequently used by critics of the press such as radio personality Rush Limbaugh. Here is how he defined these members of the media:
They are exactly like drive-by shooters. They pull up to a congested area; they spray a hail of bullets into the crowd. It causes mass hysteria, confusion, mistakes and misinterpretation. sometimes people and their careers actually die, and then the drive-by media smirks and they ride away, unnoticed in the excitement.Without a doubt, some reporters (usually from broadcast, not print) make careers out of "parachuting in" to cover a hot topic and then scamper away when things cool off. Greta Van Susteren, Rita Cosby and Geraldo Rivera are members of this crowd. To equate their work to the random violence of a drive-by shooting doesn't really work as a metaphor, however. And it certainly shouldn't be used as a catch-all insult for coverage you don't like.
Regardless of the usefulness of the term, the comment on the N&O blog gets it backward: Say what you will about the coverage of the lacrosse case by the N&O and the rival Herald-Sun, but they aren't driving by. They live here. They aren't going anywhere. A professor from hundreds of miles away is more likely to be the one to come to town, raise a ruckus and then leave, unnoticed in the excitement.

Acquired: 2011
From: Garage sale

Notes: It's not a two-player game, and since I only have one other person to play with, it doesn't work very well. But I brought it to a game-night, and we ended up playing with six people (the maximum number). It's not a six-player game, either, no matter what the box says. But it was only fifty cents, so I can't complain.

It is Tuesday
I have never seen such a nondescript day in all my life. It isn't good, it isn't bad, it just seems to be Tuesday. The day started out with well intentioned plans — a trip to the car place to get my inspection sticker, a trip to the store to pick up a couple of things, and then a day of ironing. As I got ready for the jaunt to the car place I heard the rumblings of the storms in the West — I thought that was supposed to happen tonight — did I really sleep through the weather last night. Hmm. So, off I went and arrived at the car place just as the bottom dropped out of the sky. It is a nice car place and they provide you with various hot drinks, cookies and a quiet reading room to wait out your stay — I was there at 7:45. I got my hot cocoa — not bad considering it comes out of a machine — no cookies — and settled in with my book to while away a couple of hours. The storm hit — I settled deeper in the chair — but it was all over in a second — my wait not the rain. Apparently nobody else was there and I was the first in line and they got done with the car in record time! Yippee! So, I drive my newly washed ride out into the pouring rain through muddy puddles of standing curb water. Ugh. As I head for my house I realize I am looking head on at somebody coming toward me — in my lane — trying to pass someone who was going too slow. Uh, hello, it is flooding out here — slow down. She missed me by inches and looked a little flustered to see somebody coming toward her but, hey, I was where I was supposed to be! After that I was even more anxious to get home. Had to stop at the store for a couple of things and finally got into my garage, looked out the door at the sunshine and blue sky! Couldn't they have washed my car a little slower? Darn.

Last night I was waiting for a friend to show up, sitting on the steps of the porch, the weather was so crisp and comparatively cool. The sky was a deep blue, picked with white clouds. Since mowing is an optional activity in the mind of my landlord, the front yard is a wild green jungle. There were all kinds of moving, alive things around me, from insects ( read: misquitos) to small grey-tiger ferral kittens, deeply curious about the big human in their midst.
Yesterday was a good day, a contrast to my life which seems in perpetual crisis. The garage sale people paid me a bit, though not enough to resolve my connectivity issues. I gave them two huge sacks filled with my next garage sale consignment. I found something I really needed on sale. I walked up to the McDonald's on Madison to use their WiFi. The phone still has some functions and apps that will still work with WiFi at this point. I got to briefly chat with my friend Chris, but he was on his way to work.
Yes, my life seems to be in crisis, but no one died. The crisis will be resolved, probably in a way I cannot see. I have a second interview on Tuesday for an out-of-state contract gig. There are lots of possibilities in the air.
Beautiful days, a little bit of cash, some resolution, seeing a friend and some serendipity help me balance and focus. It's time to go back to Mickey Dees to use their WiFi.

Top Ten Zimbabwean Attractions
Zimbabwe is a landlocked country located in the southern part of the African continent, between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers. It is bordered by South Africa, Botswana, Zambia and Mozambique. Zimbabwe has three official languages: English, Shona and Ndebele. Zimbabwe began as the British crown colony of Southern Rhodesia, created from land held by the British South Africa Company. President Robert Mugabe is the head of State and Commander in Chief of the armed forces. Morgan Tsvangirai is the Prime Minister. Mugabe has been in power since the country's internationally recognized independence in 1980.
- Mana Pools National Park, Sapi and Chewore Safari Areas
Mana Pools is a wildlife conservation area in northern Zimbabwe constituting a National Park. It is a region of the lower Zambezi River in Zimbabwe where the flood plain turns into a broad expanse of lakes after each rainy season. As the lakes gradually dry up and recede, the region attracts many large animals in search of water, making it one of Africa's most renowned game-viewing regions. Mana means 'four' in Shona, in reference to the four large permanent pools formed by the meanderings of the middle Zambezi. These 2,500 square kilometers of river frontage, islands, sandbanks and pools, flanked by forests of mahogany, wild figs, ebonies and baobabs, is one of the least developed National Parks in Southern Africa. It was saved from a hydro-electric scheme in the early 1980's which would have seen the flooding of this subsequent World Heritage site. It has the country's biggest concentration of hippopotamuses and crocodiles and large dry season mammal populations of elephant and buffalo.

- Mosi-oa-Tunya / Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls or Mosi-oa-Tunya ("the Smoke that Thunders") is a waterfall located in southern Africa on the Zambezi River between the countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The falls are the largest in the world.

- Matobo National Park
The Matobo National Park forms the core of the Matobo or Matopos Hills, an area of granite kopjes and wooded valleys commencing some 35 km south of Bulawayo, southern Zimbabwe. The Hills were formed over 2,000 million years ago with granite being forced to the surface, this has eroded to produce smooth "whaleback dwalas" and broken kopjes, strewn with boulders and interspersed with thickets of vegetation. Mzilikazi, founder of the Ndebele nation, gave the area its name, meaning 'Bald Heads.' The Hills cover an area of about 3,100 km², of which 424 km² is National Park, the remainder being largely communal land and a small proportion of commercial farmland. The park covers some beautiful scenery including some spectacular balancing rocks and impressive views along the Thuli, Mtshelele, Maleme and Mpopoma river valleys. Part of the national park is set aside as a 100 km² game park, which has been stocked with game including black and white rhinoceros. The highest point in the hills is the promontory named Gulati (1549 m) just outside the north-eastern corner of the park. Administratively, Matobo National Park incorporates the Lake Matopos Recreational Park, being the area around Hazelside, Sandy Spruit and Lake Matopos.

- Great Zimbabwe National Monument
Great Zimbabwe is a ruined city that was once the capital of the Kingdom of Zimbabwe, which existed from 1100 to 1450 AD during the country's Late Iron Age. The monument, which first began to be constructed in the 11th century and which continued to be built until the 14th century, spanned an area of 722 hectares (1,784 acres) and at its peak could have housed up to 18,000 people. Great Zimbabwe acted as a royal palace for the Zimbabwean monarch and would have been used as the seat of their political power. One of its most prominent features was its walls, some of which were over five meters high and which were constructed without mortar. Eventually the city was largely abandoned and fell into ruin. The ruins were first being encountered by Europeans may have been in the late 19th century with investigation of the site starting in 1871. The monument caused great controversy among the archaeological world, with political pressure being placed upon archaeologists by the then white supremacist government of Rhodesia to deny that it could have ever been produced by native Zimbabweans. Great Zimbabwe has since been adopted as a national monument by the Zimbabwean government, with the modern state being named after it. The word "Great" distinguishes the site from the many hundreds of small ruins, known as Zimbabwes, spread across the Zimbabwe Highveld. There are 200 such sites in southern Africa, such as Bumbusi in Zimbabwe and Manekweni in Mozambique, with monumental, mortarless walls and Great Zimbabwe is the largest.

- Khami Ruins National Monument
Khami is a ruined city located in what is now Zimbabwe. It was once the capital of the Kingdom of Butua. It is located 22 km west of the modern city of Bulawayo, capital of the province of Matabeleland North. Its ruins are now a national monument in Zimbabwe.

- Ziwa National Monument
Ziwa, or Ziwa ruins (formerly Van Niekerk ruins) is the name used to describe the remains of a vast late Iron Age agricultural settlement that has been dated to the 17th century. The site is located in Nyanga, Zimbabwe. Ziwa was declared a National Monument in 1946 and is currently under consideration for World Heritage listing. The site contains a large variety of stonework structures including stone terraces running along contours of hills and steep landscapes. Archaeological investigations have also engendered important aspects of pottery and rock art. Before the declaration of the site as a National Monument, Ziwa had been part of the commercial farms area and was thus under private ownership. A great deal of damage or degradation of antiquities may have been wrought during this period as the farmer used the property as a cattle ranch. Currently a site museum (with tourist facilities such as camping, guided tours, walking trails, bird viewing, etc.) has been established to represent the Ziwa heritage and other archaeological sites in the Nyanga district. Despite the abandonment of the site by its inhabitants in the 18th Century, Ziwa continued to be of significance to the later communities that settled in its neighborhood.

text: I am wondering about controlling multiple devices with my serial blaster I am wondering if I can just make a new change_chan.sh script with the different remotes in it and just point my hd-pvr to that change_chan script So that way I can control my one dishnetwork box and my hd dishnetwork box via the same lirc_serial device? Is there a more correct way to do it? So i.e. like change_chan.sh And a change_chan1.sh? So two instances of change_chan.sh but with different remotes. (since both boxes are right next to each other and both boxes have different ir commands) Only problem I can think of if there is two shows on at the same time my guess is that it would confuse things sending multiple commands ?

Through this project I go on reflecting on times I cherish with the people I love and spend time with the most, recalling lucid dreams, and reliving certain episodes with friends. In a way, sort of dreaming of a second childhood, wishing present times were similar. Sonically I wanted to have a lot of different sounds and still deliver lyrically. Showcasing different styles of rap that i can use. All while telling all these parts of my story.

Quantity of ammonia released to air from etching of PCB's
A discussion started in
Add your Q. or A. to restore it to the "Current Topics" discussions.
I work at a regulatory agency (Bay Area Air Quality Management District in San Francisco) where we commonly permit PCB etchers since we have jurisdiction over the Silicon Valley. There is little consensus here on the amount of ammonia that would be expected to be emitted during the etching process.
Ideally, as described in Mr. Sedlak's "Ammoniacal Etching of Copper", all of the ammonia would be bound up in the spent etchant. Do you have any idea or know of any reference material that would address how much ammonia would be expected to be emitted in practice?
I would appreciate any guidance you could provide.Elliot, Julian
There usually is a fairly strong ammonia smell because there is a lot of agitation in these spray etchers, and the ammonia comes off of solution to some degree as ammonia gas just as from a water solution of ammonia used in household cleaning or blueprint development. I think this is a bigger factor than the amount released due to reactions during etching; but without a literature search, I really would have no idea how to quantify either factor, I'm afraid.
Sorry I wasn't able to help, but hopefully one of our readers can.

The Christian Cashelle Interview
The author of Revisions of Life, Christian Cashelle, has received praise from the African Americans on The Move Book Club and is the founder of Dynamic Image Publications. Let's find out more about this talented author and publisher.
Who is Christian Cashelle?
I am a young woman of God, trying my hand in a lot of different talents. I have small obsessions with many things including nails, hair, sleep and other things women love to do, but my first love will always be my pen. I am the go-to baby sitter in my family and the official macaroni and cheese cook. I can be impatient and emotional at times but I feel that it shows well in my writing. I am 26 years old and working on a life that is pleasing to God. My first step of self-gratification is my writing. I have always known from the time I was eight years old, writing poetry in class that my teacher would read aloud, that feeling you get when someone recognizes the words you so creatively put together as a work of art was something I wanted to feel forever. It never left me, even through a bachelors program and two masters programs I knew that nothing would top that feeling of seeing my name printed on a cover of a book. I've taken steps to secure my literary career, developing an independent press Dynamic Image Publications and becoming a freelance editor after interning with a couple of different companies. I am currently dating, dreaming of the days of being a wife and mother. All I know for sure is that I am a child of God and a writer and most days that is all I need.
How long have you been writing?
I have been writing since I was eight years old. Never wanted to be anything but a writer. If you could tell me I would be anything other than that, I most likely would laugh or tell you that wasn't true. It's in my blood, it's a part of me and I won't let it go. Not even if I didn't get paid for it.
What inspired you to write Revisions of Life?
I studied fine arts in writing at Lindenwood University in my first masters program. I had always been more of an instinctive writer, just doing what felt right. That program opened my eyes up to a lot of techniques that so many writers were using that I had no idea about. One of the hardest for me to grasp was the art of the revision. Everything I wrote was so dear to me. I hated going to workshops where other writers would tear my work apart telling me all that was wrong with me, maybe throwing in a compliment or two. I felt as if heart hurt to sit quietly for an hour as if it didn't affect me, but what hurt more was actually having to take their words to heart and change what I had wrote. I didn't want to delete or change anything and only did so because it was required in the class, but when it was done…it was beautiful. I say that to say this, no one is happy with making changes to something they feel is already perfect in their life or even something that they are just comfortable with. Revisions of Life is about having the courage to change a current situation and the reward is seeing how beautiful it turns out when you take that leap of faith.
What steps did you take to publish this book ?
Revision of Life started out as my thesis paper for my masters in fine arts from Lindenwood University in Missouri. Once I finished the program, I realized I was nowhere near done with my three main characters so I began to add to the story. This was actually finished a lot sooner than my first two published novels. This was my third title under my independent publishing company, but I wanted to be more proactive in the pre-release. I hired editor Carla Dean of U Can Mark My Words to edit the project for me. My graphics designer, Candice Moore, designed my cover and I signed up for Create Space soon after.
What's your favorite part?
My favorite part of Revisions of Life is the journey. I don't have one particular part that stands out from another. However, I infused this novel with poetry, and I do have a favorite poem.
Walking along a bed of bright violets, fushias and emeralds
Time has given her the gift of itself
Wondering eyes focused on the multitude of a warmth coaxing through her body; an outpour through her eyes deep down into her being
Anticipating each touch of beauty with slender fingers only defusing the fortune instead
Each bright color dimming under her submission, its light fleeting as she passes
The clinches of her heart hurt from her own wrong doing, how she wishes to pull away and stop the pain yet her smooth hands continue to crumble the fresh lives along the way
As the hurt reaches her eyes, she's anticipating her last step a desire to lie down and not live is so strong
But with lightening speed a flicker of lighted truth reveals itself ahead with blues, greens and purples brighter than she ever thought possible
Thoughts of her terrorist affections conceded
Her fear of self-destruction depleted
She crawls to get there because somehow
She just knows
Outside of writing Revisions of Life, I understand you're involved in other projects. Would you mind sharing what those are with us?
I have interned with Delphine Publications an editor this past year, so now I am ready to venture off into the world of free lance editing. I am also working on my fourth novel, An Inevitable Fate, which is the sequel to my first, Ava's Story.
Do you plan on attending any events soon? If so, please tell us where you will be?
I am honored to be a part of the Los Angeles Black Book Expo on August 17 and I look forward to many more events this year.
How can the readers contact you if they would like to receive a personal copy? Do you have a website?
Copies of all three of my titles are available on www.dynamicimagepublications.com and www.amazon.com. You can also follow Dynamic Image Publications on Facebook as well as Twitter/@dynamicREIGN.
What advice do you have for someone just starting out as an author?
Do NOT let the industry deter you from your dream. Real writers couldn't stop writing if they tried…
Is there anything else you would like to say in closing?
Thank you for the opportunity to give a little piece of me, in return I hope I inspired you. God bless!

Although she didn't put it this simply, she was upset that I hadn't responded to her last two invitations to visit her. And she was very angry about it.
I, of course, was stunned and felt horrible and apologized immediately, explaining what's been going on, and apologizing again, but I haven't heard back from her other than a text wishing my Dad well.
After I'd calmed down somewhat from the surprise and hurt I felt myself, I thought things through.
I know I'm not the greatest at being social with my friends. I don't accept every invitation to come over or hang out or go to a barbecue or whatever it might be. I wouldn't say that's my forte as a friend. (Or as a daughter/sister/co-worker as the case may be.)
But I'm a good friend in other ways, and I appreciate that most of my friends and acquaintances accept this about me. As far as friends go, I'm on the less social side of things.
And for once, I'm not beating myself up about it.
I've grown a lot in the last few years, and learning who I am and then learning to accept who I am is an ongoing and challenging thing.
I'm very sad that I've inadvertently hurt my friend and I feel rude and careless that I missed responding to her invitations. I know, from my end, it wasn't on purpose, but I still should have not gotten distracted or whatever and done the polite thing and declined the invitation, that's my bad and I'll do my best to be better about that. (I'd thought I had been pretty good about that, but certainly my focus has been on immediate family this past year and especially this past month.)
And I'm also sad that my friend handled things this way. The text she sent was an angry one and I had no warning or idea that she was upset so her anger hit me full force, without warning.
I try to remember that often when someone's really upset there's something more going on in their life behind the surface and I do my best to be understanding of where they're coming from, but I don't quite know what or how to repair damages here.
(Yes, I've called and left a message, and hope to hear from her.)
It also reminds me to continue to be careful when I have a grievance with someone, especially someone close, because being blindsided is an awful feeling.
I try, when a friend or loved one upsets me or hurts me in some way, to see where it is I'm coming from. Is it my issue that's at play here? Or is there something worth talking over with this person?
And if I think that a conversation might improve things, which, as I said the other week, I'm not always sure it does, I'll try my best to be calm about it, not to bring it up in anger, although that's easier said than done of course.
But I like to think that if I had a problem with the way a friend treated me, that I'd be able to say "Hey, I feel like you always put your work ahead of our friendship and it makes me feel lonely." or whatever. But maybe I wouldn't. Maybe I'd just hold it in until I snapped and then.... wish I hadn't. Or something.
I'm not happy that this has happened, but I'm happy that my brain didn't get stuck in "no one likes me and I'm a horrible person" mode, because that's certainly where it was headed for a while.
I'll miss my friend if this is the tipping point of our relationship and she choses to end things or withdraw somewhat, but I will also remind myself that I am a good person, and I am a good friend, even if I'm not the type of friend some people want.
And to the couple of friends who have found their way to this blog over the years, thank you for allowing me to be who I am and for accepting me flaws and all, even when those flaws maybe frustrate you or make you feel like I don't spend much time with you. I love my friends dearly, and think about them all the time, and I hope at least that much comes across. I would never intentionally hurt the people I love, and I always mean the best.
I am learning who I am, for better or worse, and accepting the good and the bad and working on the ugly. It's a bumpy road and nothing close to easy, but I think it's important and I value the process enough to keep going.

I have heard of twin sisters getting married same day but this is my first time seeing triplets getting married same day and gosh the sight is heart warming.Guests at a wedding service saw triple when three identical sisters tied the knot together at the same ceremony.
Triplets Rafaela, Rochele and Tagiane Bini share the same birthday, the same looks and tastes, and now - after marrying men who look strikingly similar - the same wedding anniversary too.
The 29-year-old sisters, from Passo Fundo, southern Brazil, even wore the same wedding dress, as well as hair style and make up, for their big day on Saturday.

First Inaugural Address
|Page 3 of 3
A due regard for the interests and prosperity of all the people demands that our finances shall be established upon such a sound and sensible basis as shall secure the safety and confidence of business interests and make the wage of labor sure and steady, and that our system of revenue shall be so adjusted as to relieve the people of unnecessary taxation, having a due regard to the interests of capital invested and workingmen employed in American industries, and preventing the accumulation of a surplus in the Treasury to tempt extravagance and waste.
Care for the property of the nation and for the needs of future settlers requires that the public domain should be protected from purloining schemes and unlawful occupation.
The conscience of the people demands that the Indians within our boundaries shall be fairly and honestly treated as wards of the Government and their education and civilization promoted with a view to their ultimate citizenship, and that polygamy in the Territories, destructive of the family relation and offensive to the moral sense of the civilized world, shall be repressed.
The laws should be rigidly enforced which prohibit the immigration of a servile class to compete with American labor, with no intention of acquiring citizenship, and bringing with them and retaining habits and customs repugnant to our civilization.
The people demand reform in the administration of the Government and the application of business principles to public affairs. As a means to this end, civil-service reform should be in good faith enforced. Our citizens have the right to protection from the incompetency of public employees who hold their places solely as the reward of partisan service, and from the corrupting influence of those who promise and the vicious methods of those who expect such rewards; and those who worthily seek public employment have the right to insist that merit and competency shall be recognized instead of party subserviency or the surrender of honest political belief.
In the administration of a government pledged to do equal and exact justice to all men there should be no pretext for anxiety touching the protection of the freedmen in their rights or their security in the enjoyment of their privileges under the Constitution and its amendments. All discussion as to their fitness for the place accorded to them as American citizens is idle and unprofitable except as it suggests the necessity for their improvement. The fact that they are citizens entitles them to all the rights due to that relation and charges them with all its duties, obligations, and responsibilities.
These topics and the constant and ever-varying wants of an active and enterprising population may well receive the attention and the patriotic endeavor of all who make and execute the Federal law. Our duties are practical and call for industrious application, an intelligent perception of the claims of public office, and, above all, a firm determination, by united action, to secure to all the people of the land the full benefits of the best form of government ever vouchsafed to man. And let us not trust to human effort alone, but humbly acknowledging the power and goodness of Almighty God, who presides over the destiny of nations, and who has at all times been revealed in our country's history, let us invoke His aid and His blessings upon our labors.

Lakers Pau Gasol
Lakers' Pau Gasol runs up the score for charity
March 26, 2011
By Broderick Turner
His scoring meant more than just helping the Lakers defeat the Clippers. His scoring meant more than just putting up another solid statistical game. The 26 points that Pau Gasol scored during the Lakers' 112-104 victory over the Clippers on Friday night at Staples Center meant the All-Star forward had contributed to a worthy cause. Gasol donated $1,000 for every point he scored toward to a fund set up by Direct Relief International to assist those affected by the earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan this month.
Celtics' Kevin Garnett soars as Lakers' Pau Gasol struggles
June 14, 2010
By Lisa Dillman
Reporting from Boston -- The man who likes to abuse his own bald head — either as a way to psych himself up or express simple frustration — was the one trying to ramp down the energy on Sunday. Boston's Kevin Garnett certainly won't ever become Mr. Zen, but Celtics Coach Doc Rivers found himself somewhat amused when the emotional Garnett went against type in the Celtics' 92-86 victory in Game 5 of the NBA Finals at TD Garden. "That tells you how screwed up we are," Rivers said.
Lakers' Pau Gasol chosen for All-Star game
January 29, 2010
By Mike Bresnahan and Broderick Turner
Western Conference coaches were able to overlook the 17 games Pau Gasol has missed this season. But they weren't able to ignore Andrew Bynu m's up-and-down season with the Lakers. Gasol will join Kobe Bryant at the All-Star game on Feb. 14, the second time in as many seasons the Lakers forward was selected to play as a reserve for the West team. Bynum, however, did not make the All-Star team after averaging 15.8 points and 8.4 rebounds a game. He started off strong, collecting double figures in points and rebounds in eight of his first nine games -- while Gasol was sidelined -- but endured a stretch of 23 consecutive games without a double-double.
Lakers' Pau Gasol asked to step up for team
October 23, 2010
By Broderick Turner
The bar has been raised for Pau Gasol ? by Lakers Coach Phil Jackson and assistant Brian Shaw . They want him to be more of a force for the Lakers when the regular season starts Tuesday night at Staples Center against the Houston Rockets. Jackson and Shaw maintained that Gasol has to be The Man for perhaps the first month of the season because, as Shaw said, "We're kind of limping going into the season. " They want to see more from Gasol in the regular season than what he displayed during the exhibition season, when Jackson lamented once during training camp that the All-Star has "been on vacation.
Lakers' Pau Gasol shows he can play the tough guy
March 14, 2010
By Mike Bresnahan
Pau Gasol won't ever be confused with Kurt Rambis or Rick Mahorn , but, yes, that was him in the middle of an on-court storm in Phoenix the other night. Hardly an enforcer, the finesse Lakers forward was responding to what was asked of him — standing strong in the paint on defense while trying to reduce the number of lay-ups and dunks by opposing big men. Gasol already had been beat for a three-point play in the game by Amare Stoudemire , arriving too late to stop a lay-up and then sending the Suns forward to the foul line, so Gasol made sure that another Suns post player, Louis Amundson , wouldn't get an easy look on a fourth-quarter drive to the basket.
Lakers' Pau Gasol has been a nonfactor in playoffs
May 6, 2011
By Mike Bresnahan
Reporting from Dallas A select group of sports reporters had to stop and think for a second when handed a ballot last June. Should Pau Gasol be the most valuable player of the NBA Finals? He wasn't chosen, the honor going to Kobe Bryant , but Gasol took two of nine votes. Now he'd get votes only for the Lakers' least valuable player. Gasol had another forgettable night Friday in a 98-92 loss to Dallas, scoring 12 points on five-for-13 shooting in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinals.
Lakers' Pau Gasol is energized after an easy summer
September 26, 2010

The summer itinerary couldn't have been any better for Pau Gasol. Win an NBA championship in June. Go to South Africa a few weeks later to watch home country Spain win soccer's World Cup. Teach teenagers how to play basketball on an NBA-sponsored trip to India in August. Head to Spain for some downtime in September. A taxing summer it was not, by design. The Lakers forward didn't play for the Spanish basketball team in the world championships and didn't do anything competitively until some one-on-one a couple of weeks ago against his brother, Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol.
Clippers' Blake Griffin gets big play, Lakers' Pau Gasol gets big win

The moment Clippers forward Blake Griffin leaped into the air, Lakers forward Pau Gasol became nothing more than a prop. Griffin extended his left forearm into Gasol's face and threw down a powerful one-handed dunk. The momentum sent Gasol tumbling to the ground and the 18,997 at Staples Center into a frenzy. "You don't really see what happened," Gasol recalled after the Lakers' 113-108 victory Wednesday over the Clippers. "It was quick, a hit-and-run kind of thing, right?"
Lakers' Pau Gasol is probable for Dec. 22 as Steve Nash progresses

WASHINGTON - Steve Nash is running and shooting and hoping to practice next week, all good signs for the Lakers. But what about Pau Gasol? The four-time All-Star continues to deal with knee tendinitis, sitting out his seventh game Friday against Washington. Using the standard for NFL injury reports, Gasol declared himself doubtful for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, questionable for Tuesday against Charlotte and probable Dec. 22 against Golden State. Yep, looks like at least another week before he returns.
