Solomon: Ronnie Courtney's all-time starting five — with a notable omission
Coach Ronnie Courtney's memorable back-to-back state championship teams at Willowridge from 2000-01 featured the likes of Daniel Ewing, T.J. Ford, Curtis Walker, Kenny Taylor, and Ivan McFarlin.The unfair question of a coach with four decades of excellence on his resume elicited an enthusiastic “Ooh wee!” and 20 seconds of laughter.
Crawford, the star of Courtney’s first squads at Davis High School, gets my vote as the best all-around athlete from the city of Houston. He was a second-round draft choice of the Tampa Bay Rays, only because MLB teams thought he would be difficult to sign because of his other options. Turned out, he signed the fourth-biggest contract ever for a player not taken in the first round.

Design and Fabrication of Flexible Copper Sensor Decorated with Bismuth Micro/Nanodentrites to Detect Lead and Cadmium in Noninvasive Samples of SweatThe use of economic methods to design and fabricate flexible copper sensors decorated with bismuth micro/nanodentrites for the detection of lead and cadmium in sweat is demonstrated. The flexible copper sensors were constructed with simple and cost-effective materials; namely, flexible and adhesive conductive copper tape, adhesive label containing the design of a three-electrode electrochemical system, and nail polish or spray as a protective layer. The flexible copper device consisted of a working electrode decorated with bismuth micro/nanodentrites using an electrodeposition technique, a copper pseudo-reference and copper counter electrodes. Under optimal experimental conditions, the flexible sensing platform showed excellent performance toward the detection of lead and cadmium using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPAdSV) in a wide linear range from 2.0 μM to 50 μM with acceptable reproducibility and repeatability, and limits of detection and quantification of 5.36 and 17.9 μM for Cd2+ ions and 0.76 μM and 2.5 for Pb2+ ions. Studies of addition and recovery in spiked artificial sweat sample were performed, with a recovery of 104.6%. The flexible copper device provides a great opportunity for application in wearable perspiration-based healthcare systems or portable sensors to detect toxic metals in biological samples.
