However, what if radar could be used in larger, more complex and creative ways to improve human life? The University of Dayton’s Mumma Radar Lab’s re- searchers spend many hours thinking and working toward that exact goal. Since reopening under the guise of both the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Institute for Development and Com- mercialization of Advanced Sensor Technology [IDCast] of the UD Re- search Institute in March 2014, the Radar Lab and its growing team of graduate students and researchers have received tens of millions of dol- lars in grants to use its cutting-edge Don Donoher (left) is one of only 12 Hall of Famers whose entire college coaching careers were spent at their alma maters.

  • Why Wilt Chamberlain Was the Greatest NBA Player by Steve Smith / February 26, 2009
    archived as http://www.stealthskater.com/Documents/Basketball_07.doc (also …Basketball_07.pdf) => doc pdf URL-doc URL-pdf more sports-related articles are on the /Sports.htm page at doc pdf URL Why Wilt Chamberlain Was the Greatest NBA Player by Steve Smith / February 26, 2009 One of the most common types of articles on this site is a comparison between players and teams. Which can certainly be a fun way to pass some time. There have been numerous articles (generating thousands-upon-thousands of comments) contemplating who is the better player. Kobe Bryant or LeBron James. There have been an even greater number of articles wondering whether Kobe deserves to be ranked with Jordan which at times sparks so much controversy that it makes you wonder whether those commenting on it all are even out of grade school. Most of the questions on the “Short List” are comparisons just such as this (one of them asking “Jordan or Russell?”) And there are even some articles questioning who is the greatest player of all time with Michael Jordan being the de facto answer of a majority of those that I see. Other players are always mentioned when a list of the greatest players in NBA history are worked up including Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Oscar Robertson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Hakeem Olajuwon, and more recent players such as Kevin Garnett, Allen Iverson, Paul Pierce, and Tim Duncan. While there are valid arguments to be made that all of these players should be considered among the best players in NBA history, their accomplishments one-and-all pale in comparison to Wilt Chamberlain’s who is (hile mentioned among them) relegated far too often to second-string.
