ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The A's will be without center fielder Coco Crisp or shortstop Jed Lowrie in their lineup Wednesday night against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Lowrie had hoped to be able to play after missing Tuesday's start against the Tampa Bay Rays with a stiff neck.
Crisp came out of Tuesday's game with a recurrence of the neck problems that kept him out of seven consecutive games earlier this month. He'd only returned to active status on Friday in Cleveland.
In addition to being without Lowrie and Crisp, left fielder Yoenis Cespedes will serve as the designated hitter Wednesday against the Rays. Brandon Moss will play left field and Kyle Blanks, just acquired from the San Diego Padres, will get his first Oakland start.

Infectious diseases spread through food or beverages are a common, distressing, and sometimes life-threatening problem for millions of people in the United States and around the world. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that each year in the United States, 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die of foodborne diseases.
There are more than 250 known foodborne diseases. They can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites. Natural and manufactured chemicals in food products also can make people sick. Some diseases are caused by toxins from the disease-causing microbe, others by the human body's reactions to the microbe itself.
To better understand the epidemiology (study of disease origin and cause in a community) of foodborne diseases in the United States, 10 states across the country collect annual data on the occurrence of new cases of the most common causes of bacterial and parasitic infections through the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network, a CDC-sponsored program known as FoodNet.

Warm weather, hot fishing on tap for Sierra Trout Opener
BISHOP This will be the Apted Family's 40th Eastern Sierra Trout Opener, and if Rick Apted leans out a bit, he can see what's left of Lake Sabrina from his restaurant and boat house on the eastern end of the lake.
Two straight years of below normal snowfall (about half of normal) in the Alps of California have left creeks, rivers and lakes very low this year. Sabrina's level also was impacted by maintenance done on the dam and higher water pulls by Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. When the fishing season opens at 12:01 a.m. Saturday in Inyo County, fishermen will have about a quarter-mile hike to get to Sabrina's "natural lakes." It will be worth the walk because Sabrina, like most waters in the Sierra, is loaded with stocked rainbow trout and holdover brown trout.
"Every year is a different year," Apted said, doing his best John Madden imitation to describe the Sierra conditions for the 2013 fishing season.
The weather forecast calls for an incredible weekend in the Eastern Sierra, nearly a repeat of last year's opener in terms of weather and water conditions. It's going to be in the high 80s, possibly low 90s in Bishop, and Mammoth will be a very comfortable 72 degrees during the day on Saturday. Even in Bridgeport, where it tends to be cooler for those fishing Upper and Lower Twin Lakes, Robinson Creek and Bridgeport Reservoir, the forecast calls for a high of 73 degrees. Monitor Pass is open, and Tioga Pass and the road into San Joaquin will open before Memorial Day this year.
South Lake, south of Sabrina, still has some rotten ice on it, so ice fishing is out there. But plenty of shoreline is open, and there should be very good fishing there.
North Lake is about the same, but requires a hike to get there. Bishop Creek is flowing at a lower rate, with the south and middle forks all free of snow and ice. Intake II and Weir Pond also are ice-free, open and well-stocked.
Bridgeport Reservoir, Convict Lake, Crowley Lake, Lundy Lake and the Twin Lakes in Bridgeport are open and ice-free. And the entire June Lake Loop, including June Lake, Gull Lake, Silver Lake and Grant Reservoir are all ice-free. But the water level at Grant is very low. Crowley isn't much better, coming in at just 10 feet above the low point it reached last October. The East Walker River in Bridgeport is low, but fishing should be very good.
Twin Lakes are open in Mammoth, and Rock Creek Lake is 50 percent ice-free and melting quickly. The road is open and all shoreline is accessible.
CDFW wildlife officers will be out in force this weekend to pop anglers. Last year at the opener, the wardens checked 3,355 anglers. They issued 73 warnings and 91 citations for fishing without a license, catching more than the limit and other Fish and Game Code Violations. For fishing regulations on individual waters, check http://dfg.ca.gov/regulations/FreshFish-Mar2013/
Night Fishing: The El Cajon Ford Night Fishing Series starts Saturday night at El Capitan. It's a great way to fish the city lakes chain at night. Call tournament director Jim Sleight at (619) 813-3324 for information and late sign-up.

In this fast and over active world of computers, there is only one thing that seems to remain slow and underrated. I see it at school, with my fellow students; I see it with my friends. At home, I spot the same thing with my mom, and my dad and even my younger brother. It is the keyboard! In this article you will learn how to use TypeFaster to yes type faster!
TypeFaster is a Windows specific free software game that teaches you how to, you guessed it, type faster. Within the bounds of 20 dedicated lessons and one game, you will learn how to type with all of your fingers (not just two of them). Adults are not the only ones who can benefit from using TypeFaster; kids and very old-fashioned teachers can also learn how to type, and in a playful way that will engage. If you are not convinced, imagine how much time that it will save throughout your entire life! My best guess calculation is: currently you could easily write over 3000 words per week through a combination of emails, projects at work or school, chatting with friends via IRC etc. That works out at over 10 million words typed throughout a 65 year typing life (ages 10 through to 75). Now if you type at only 20wpm that is a whole year of just typing. If you just double your typing speed to 40wpm, you can have 6 months of your life back.
TypeFaster is the nicest way to learn how to type
You can play it by yourself (in single user mode), with others (in multi user mode, sharing the same computer) or even choose the "teacher support" mode (designed for use in schools). Within the game, each member of your family or class can have their own account. The settings and progress of each user will be stored, so you can check your own progress... and your mother's!
The Multi user with teacher support is designed for use in schools. It must be installed in one location: for example, in a shared network folder.
TypeFaster is free software; you can download it from SourceForge. The game file is not very big (it's just 6.53MB), and it's available in numerous languages: French, English, German, Japanese, and many others.
Warning : Sadly, At the time of writing the program works only under a Windows environment
Once you run the installer, press "I agree" and then press "Next".
Press "Browse"; you will see a list of options; click on "desktop". Press "Next" to choose "single user", "many users" or "teacher support". Click on "Install". You are done! You will see an icon with the words TypeFaster on your desktop click on the icon and the program will start.
My first impressions
Lesson one (figure 3) is quite simple: there are only a few letters that you need to type; only in the lesson named "common words" will you start seeing actual words. Each lesson takes about five or ten minutes. Lesson one is just for beginners. After starting, on top of the page, you see a 0%; when you write a few words, it goes up to 1% and so on. Once you achieved 100%, you go to lesson two. You will also see how many mistakes you have made, and how long it took you to get to 100%. In lesson two, more letters come to the screen. As the lessons continue, more and more letters are added until you are typing with the whole keyboard and all of you fingers.
When you suddenly feel the need for more excitement you can click on "play a game"
The game
When you suddenly feel the need for more excitement you can click on "play game": a game will appear. You are given three "lives". The goal is to type the right words in the given amount of time; as the speed increases and more difficult words enter the zone, you may end up with one less life.
(This will definitely test your stress capacity and ability to work under pressure!)
I am sure kids will like the game (figure 4) because there is more action: when you've typed a word, a rocket will destroy the word and then another word will appear.
At first, I thought the game would be a real bore. However, once I started to type faster and faster, I began to really like this approach. The game is quite simple. If you see a letter turning red, you press that letter on the keyboard. Usually another letter turns red, and sometimes the same letter needs to be pressed twice. The trick is not to stop pressing the red letters.
What could be added to this game? Well, when you finish a lesson, it would be nice to get a surprise. In addition, when you complete lesson one to lesson 20, you could be "clapped", or receive a gold star of some sort. In addition, the first game is a bit of a bore. So, I would advise the maintainer to make the first game little less boring!
By spending 3 hours on gaming my speed went up by about 10%. I am 10: I must have saved hundreds of hours or days of my future life. Just think how many more games I can play in that time! [Victorian father comments: Games, games. Give the kids good solid accountancy packages I say!]
You can also play nice competitions with your schoolmates, friends and little brothers and sisters.
If you're a teacher, I encourage you to use this program with your students: it is indeed the nicest way to learn how to type faster.
Have much fun, let your fingers learn efficiency and TypeFaster.
learning to type on a free os
For those who prefer to learn to type on a free operating system I can recommend Tuxtype on GNU/Linux.
I installed it and for my brother and for a period it actually was his favourite game.
Thanks for offering this link. My daughter LOVES Tuxpaint. I'm sure she'll love this too!

... or ktouch :-)
I learn to type with ktouch, a KDE typing tutor. It's easy, in one month (30 minutes each day), I improve my typing skills. However, i don't know a similar software in Linux.
Great article, best regards,
If it is for KDE it is for Linux
... as KDE is (mostly) a Linux window manager.
Just to clarify
Chief screencast producer at Plan-B for OpenOffice.org
Not really. KDE is a
Not really.
KDE is a complete set of applications, it includes an office suite, browser, even specialized development tools like UML creator,
Programmer's version?
How about a typing program that has drills emphasizing the less used symbols required in C++, etc?
Love it!
Thanks so much for directing me to this game! I am a teacher and students frequently ask me for ways to improve their typing. This gives me an excellent (FREE) resources to offer them.
Taking this article one step further
OK, it's windows only. How about going one step further and reporting how well it works with Wine? Listing other alternatives would be great to. Commenters have noted TuxTyping & KTouch
Its always good to see our
Its always good to see our youth learning about the benefits of improving efficiency; yet, OTOH, its sad to see them continuing to be trapped in the most inefficient keyboard map imaginable!
Now if this game included an optional Dvorak keymap, their efficiency could be increased a minimum of apprx. 25%, & possibly AMA 50-60%!
At least there's still Zijian Huang's KP Typing Tutor, intended for kids, although it was written for Win95/NT.
Possibly still the best available for the Dvorak-mapped keyboard.
It Does have an optional Dvorak map...
In the current version of TypeFaster, you do need to enable the Dvorak keyboard on your system, but Dvorak is an available map.
Once you enable Dvorak on your system: (Win NT + only)
Go to Typefaster, then:
Go to Edit Settings, then Change Layouts Enabled, check US-Dvorak.
Then, go to Layout: and select Dvorak.
If Dvorak is enabled on your system, press ctrl + shift.
To be honest, I'm typing on Dvorak right now, slow but sure.
Problem solved.
I liki to play type faster

DOE Loan Guarantee to Support World's Largest Wind Project
October 13, 2010
DOE announced on October 8 a conditional commitment to provide a partial guarantee for a $1.3 billion loan in support of the world's largest wind farm. The loan will finance Caithness Energy LLC's Shepherds Flat wind project, an 845-megawatt wind-powered electrical generating facility in eastern Oregon. Sponsored by Caithness and General Electric (GE) Energy Financial Services, the project consists of 338 of GE's 2.5xl turbines, which are being deployed for the first time deployed in North America. Once completed, the project will sell 100% of the power generated to Southern California Edison through 20-year fixed-price power purchase agreements. The facility will preclude the emission of 1,215,991 tons of carbon dioxide per year, an amount equivalent to the annual greenhouse gas emissions from 212,141 passenger vehicles. According to Caithness, the project will directly create 400 construction jobs, followed by 35 permanent jobs on site.
The Shepherds Flat project is the largest project to date to receive an offer of a conditional commitment for a loan guarantee under the Financial Institution Partnership Program (FIPP), a DOE program supported by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Under FIPP financing, DOE guarantees up to 80% of a loan provided to a renewable energy project by qualified financial institutions. See the DOE press release and the DOE Loan Guarantee Program Web site.

SOUTH TAHOE, Calif. - Both teams were running on empty by the final match.
Nine games of volleyball in one day will do that, but Truckee dug deep to grind out wins against Dayton in five games and South Tahoe in four at the Northern I-A regional championship on Saturday. The back-to-back wins earned the Wolverines a No. 1 seed into the state championship tournament at Galena High School in Reno on Friday.
While Truckee's new regional title sure has a nice ring, it was actually its narrow semifinal win against Dayton that mattered most.
"We're going to state and that is what we came here to do today," said Truckee coach Erika Murphy, whose Wolverines will now seek a fourth consecutive state championship.
The girls left everything they had on the court Saturday to earn the trip to state. It took five games, 62 digs and 37 kills to beat Dayton. By the end, every one of those points mattered.
Truckee seemed to have the winning formula on lock as it took the first two games 25-19 and 25-13. Mackenzie Redner and Mel Jones dominated at the net while Kestlie Stefanelli and Gabby Moretti helped keep the backcourt clean.
All that now stood between the Wolverines and a trip to state was one game and an elite outside hitter named Madison Foley.
But Foley is not to be underestimated. Despite the 2-0 lead, Foley was breathing down Truckee's neck. It was enough pressure to spark some second-half adjustments for the Wolverines.
"I had to rearrange my rotation because we hadn't seen them with Maddie, and I should have just left the rotation," Murphy said.
The adjustments didn't pay off. They actually seemed to work in Foley's favor as she led Dayton to a 25-19 win and 25-12 win to tie the match.
A trip to state was now riding on Game 5.
The Wolverines reverted to their original wining rotation. Redner shook off the past two games and came out hard.
"One of the things I like is she shrugged off her mistakes," Murphy said. "She just shrugged them off and that's what you want your players to do."
Redner and Foley exchanged kill-for-kill as the Wolverines edged ahead then slipped behind.
The game pushed beyond 15 points, but it ended up being mistake-free volleyball that earned Truckee the 18-16 win.
"One of the things my girls have learned is they have to play together. If they don't have good ball control, good serving and good passing, we don't get done what we need to get done," Murphy said.
With state in the bag, the girls could breath a little easier as they headed into the finals against South Tahoe.
The Wolverines made no changes to their winning rotation and took an early lead with a 25-16 win in Game 1.
"The rotation has a more open block for Kenzie and then she was able to get a better swing," Murphy said.
Redner getting a better swing is a scary sight for opponents. The power hitter added another 21 kills against South Tahoe to record 41 total kills on Saturday.
To South Tahoe's credit, the Vikings stood their ground against the slams despite just finishing an exhausting five-game, two-hour volleyball battle.
"Definitely props to them for being able to come back out and to play a whole nother game," Truckee junior Chelsea Mohun said. "But they're always a good team. They bring their A-game."
The Vikings regained energy in Game 2 and tied the match at 1-1.
But Stefanelli, the Wolverines' senior libero, picked up a beat on the Vikings kills. By Game 3 she was a digging machine. Stefanelli came up with 22 digs against two of the best hitters in Northern Nevada and kept the momentum rolling.
"She's a captain and she's my thermostat. She really sets the tone for the team," Murphy said.
Her defensive efforts kept the Wolverines in the game, although South Tahoe grabbed an early lead.
Redner delivered the final points as she tipped and served her team to 25-22 victory.
The Wolverines' serving carried them through Game 4. Redner didn't miss a serve all afternoon. Together, with Stefanelli, the two were a double threat from the service line.
The Wolverines cemented their regional title with a 25-16 win in Game 4.
"The energy that every person brought helped us come together," Mohun said. "We were able to not think so much about playing for ourselves, but playing for our teammates, and once you have that unity and bond, playing is just the best thing in the world."

The Washington Nationals' Gio Gonzalez has won the 2012 Warren Spahn Award in a tiebreaker over Toronto's David Price.
The award is given to the top left-handed pitcher in the major leagues using a formula based on wins, strikeouts and earned run average.
The Warren Spahn Board of Directors said Thursday that Gonzalez and Price tied — with Gonzalez claiming the tiebreaker of most wins. Gonzalez's 21 wins were one better than Price — who won the award in 2010.
The award is named for Hall of Fame pitcher Warren Spahn — who holds the major league record for most wins by a left-hander with 363.
The award is presented by the Bricktown Rotary Club of Oklahoma City and the Jim Thorpe Association.

With construction of the new Hurricane Deck Bridge now underway, the Water Patrol is advising boaters on the Lake of the Ozarks to be careful as they approach the area at the 35 mile-marker of the Osage Arm.
"We recommend boaters in that area use caution as they approach from upstream or downstream. There are a number of regulatory markers to help them to know when to slow to no wake idle speed. They need to pay attention to the markers that are there. That's the key thing," said Water Patrol Captain Matt Walz.
A row of buoys on the upstream side mark the start of the No Wake Idle Zone about 700 feet from the construction area. On the downstream side, the row of buoy markers is at around 600 feet.
Within this 1,300 foot idle speed zone, there are spots that are marked Boats Keep Out to protect the specific spots where actual construction is underway. Boaters will be funneled under the middle section of the existing bridge during normal construction operations.
The channel will stay open though restricted for most of the construction period, though there will be times when it could be closed temporarily to accommodate work and demolition.

Free Jan. 31 community discussion
focuses on how to live well while dying
RANDOLPH – Few would likely pick a "bad" death. But what is a "good" death and how do you choose one?
Those are the questions regional hospice and health care experts will address at a Thursday, Jan. 31 event at Gifford Medical Center titled "What is a 'Good' Death?" The talk, a free community discussion open to all, is from 5-6:30 p.m. in the Randolph hospital's Conference Center. Continue reading

Q: It's one thing for one of us to decide to participate, but how do we work the program together, especially if we are struggling?
A: There are no simple answers to this question. At times, one member is more willing to work on the relationship than the other. Sometimes, the best we can do is attend the RCA meeting as we let our Higher Power and the Fellowship show the way.
The program gives us the tools, and the choice is ours. We are here to support each other through the sharing of our experience, strength and hope. Recovering people know the price of neglected relationships. RCA recovery meetings are one means of nurturing our relationship and provide opportunities to connect with our partner as well as with other couples.
Q: We hear the phrase, "A sponsor couple." What is a sponsor couple and how do you choose them?
A: A sponsor couple is another RCA recovering couple who shares with you their experience of working the Steps together. This couple can help you understand the RCA program, learn to use the tools, and just be there for you as a couple. You may want to begin with a temporary sponsor couple until you find someone whose program is attractive to you, and to whom you are willing to be vulnerable, to trust, and to share who you really are as a couple. Sponsor couples will often suggest activities that they have found to be successful in couple recovery.

DAVIE, Fla. -- In the stadium program sold at the Miami Dolphins' game on Halloween, Richie Incognito was asked who's the easiest teammate to scare. His answer: Jonathan Martin.
The troubled, troubling relationship between the two linemen took an ominous turn Monday with fresh revelations: Incognito sent text messages to his teammate that were racist and threatening, two people familiar with the situation said.
The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Dolphins and NFL haven't disclosed the nature of the misconduct that led to Sunday's suspension of Incognito, a veteran with a reputation for dirty play.
Martin, a second-year tackle out of Stanford, remained absent from practice Monday one week after he suddenly left the team because of emotional issues. Also missing was Incognito, a guard suspended indefinitely late Sunday by coach Joe Philbin for his treatment of Martin. A source told The Miami Herald that Incognito will never again play for the Dolphins.
Stanford coach David Shaw said people at the school had been in touch with Martin.
"I'm a Jonathan Martin fan, so my interest is just in him getting back to the point where he gets a chance to play this game that he loves again," Shaw said. "By all accounts, he's doing well. Not sure if he's going to rejoin the team this year, or when he is, but I know he's going to get himself back ready to play the game."
The 319-pound Incognito, a ninth-year pro, is white. The 312-pound Martin is black. For much of the season they've played side by side.
The team and NFL continued their investigation into allegations by Martin's representatives that he was bullied, and Philbin said Dolphins owner Stephen Ross asked league commissioner Roger Goodell for assistance. The NFL Players Association also planned to look into the matter.
"Every decision I've made, everything we've done in this facility has been done with one thing in mind," Philbin said. "That's to help our players and our organization reach their full potential. Any type of conduct (or) behavior that detracts from that objective is not acceptable and is not tolerated."
It's unclear whether coaches or management had any inkling of harassment between the players before Martin left the team, and Philbin declined to answer a question about the locker-room culture.
Hazing of young players has a long history in sports, but Incognito's treatment of Martin raised questions about whether coaches or teammates should have intervened.
"It's not a thin line. It's pretty obvious stuff that shouldn't be crossed," Tennessee Titans cornerback Jason McCourty said.
Raiders coach Dennis Allen said the coach is ultimately responsible for players knowing what is acceptable behavior among teammates. When he arrived in Oakland, he made sure the boundary lines were clearly drawn.
"That was a point we tried to make in training camp of not really hazing the rookies because we need everybody," Allen said. "If we're going to get this culture the right way, and if we're going to win football games like we believe we're capable of winning, we're going to need everybody in that locker room."
Philbin said he was unaware of hazing incidents that involved Incognito -- such as hacking into a teammate's Facebook page -- shown on the HBO series "Hard Knocks," which chronicled the Dolphins' training camp in 2012. Philbin said he never watched the program.
"If the review shows that this is not a safe atmosphere, I will take whatever measures are necessary to ensure that it is," Philbin said.
Before being suspended, Incognito posted several tweets saying he wanted his name cleared.
"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth," Incognito tweeted, quoting Buddha.
Agents for the two players didn't respond to requests for comment. Martin is with his family in Los Angeles for counseling.
Incognito, who's in the final year of a $13 million, three-year contract, has long had a reputation of being among the NFL's dirtiest players. During his first four years, he led the league in penalties for unnecessary roughness, and the St. Louis Rams got fed up with his undisciplined play and released him during the 2009 season.
However, there have been fewer such complaints since Incognito joined the Dolphins in 2010.
Last year he was voted by the league's players into the Pro Bowl for the first time. He was the co-winner of the Dolphins' Good Guy Award, given to the team's most cooperative player by the local media. He also won frequent praise from Dolphins coaches for his leadership.
Staff writers Tim Kawakami and Steve Corkran contributed to this report.

"Think about your childhood for a moment. What was your favorite outdoor place to play? What was that environment like? Do your memories evoke specific sights, scents, and sounds? What did you do there? What did it look like and feel like? Did this place change along with the seasons? What sort of games did you play and what did you discover there? "Most of us have vivid memories of our favorite childhood play environment. This was the place where we began to discover the wonder of playful exploration. It was the place where we first interacted with the natural world. This place was our introduction to the environment, our community, and the cycles of life. "The places that adults remember playing in as children are so often natural places - places with a stream, clumps of spongy moss, thick layers of slippery mud, fallen logs, or even a mound of dirt piled high in a vacant lot in the city. There is just something about connecting with the natural world that is so important for all people - particularly children. These are the kinds of experiences that nourish our souls."Unfortunately, these days many children don't have the kinds of opportunities that we had not so long ago. Our fast-paced culture now places greater emphasis on going, doing, and becoming, and less on wandering, searching, and discovering. With modern urban and suburban development, natural or wild areas are less available."

Holocaust Denial on Trial, Trial Judgment: Electronic Edition, by Charles GrayTable of Contents
|What has to be proved in ... >
|Evidence adduced in relat... >>
The parties' statements of case
4.1 Irving having established, as I have found, that Denying the Holocaust contains passages which are defamatory of him, it is necessary for the Defendants, if they are to avoid liability, to establish a defence. The burden of doing so rests, under the English system of law, upon the Defendants.
4.2The substantive defence relied on by both Defendants is justification, that is, that in their natural and ordinary meaning the passages of which Mr Irving complains are substantially true. I have already recited, in section II above, the so-called Lucas-Box 27 meanings or propositions the truth of which the Defendants seek to establish in order to make good their defences of justification.
4.3As practice requires the Defendants also set out in their formal statement of case, served in February 1997, the detailed particulars on which they rely in support of their defence of justification. In November 1999 the Defendants served a revised document entitled Defendants' Summary of Case. This document comprehensively rearranges, supplements and in some cases abandons the particulars previously served. Irving has, in my view sensibly, raised no objection to this recasting of the Defendants' case of justification.
4.4It is to be noted that in the particulars of their case of justification the Defendants do not confine themselves to the specific assertions made by Lipstadt in her book. To give but one example: no mention is made in Denying the Holocaust of the bombing of Dresden by the Allies in 1945. Yet section 5 of the Defendants' Summary of Case contains detailed particulars on that topic criticising Irving's treatment of the subject in his book Apocalypse 1945: the Destruction of Dresden. No objection has been taken or, in my judgment, could be taken to this course since the Defendants are entitled28 to rely on Irving's account of the bombing of Dresden in support of their contention that he falsifies data and misrepresents evidence. The same applies to other matters raised by the Defendants in their Summary of Case which are not mentioned in Denying the Holocaust.
4.5For his part Irving has, in compliance with the rules, set out in summary form in his Replies to the Defences of the Defendants his answer to the allegations and criticisms advanced by the Defendants in justification of what was published. In October 1999 the Defendants sought from Irving answers to a series of detailed requests for further information about his case. Unfortunately most of those requests went unanswered. In the result much of Irving's case in rebuttal of the defence of justification emerged in the course of his evidence at trial and in the course of his cross-examination of the witnesses called by the Defendants. The Defendants, in my view rightly, felt themselves unable to object.
4.6The Replies also include an allegation of malice against both Defendants, apparently introduced in the mistaken belief that they were relying also upon the defence of fair comment on a matter of public interest. Malice may nonetheless be relevant to the issue of damages, if that arises.

- All-East Bay Girls Basketball first-team capsules, second, third team lists
- East Bay Girls Basketball Coach of the Year: Berkeley's Cheryl Draper
OAKLAND -- When Bishop O'Dowd High girls basketball star Oderah Chidom started her high school career, she was far from the limelight of basketball success.
"As a freshman, I accepted the role as water girl (for the varsity team)," Chidom said. "I was the last (off the bench)."
Her senior season was a testimony to what hard work can do. The 6-foot-4 McDonald's All-American was a matchup nightmare from her small forward position -- she averaged 14 points, 10 rebounds, three blocks and two steals per game as O'Dowd marched through a tough schedule to win the California Interscholastic Federation Open Division state championship.
For her accomplishments, Chidom has been named the Bay Area News Group East Bay Girls Basketball Player of the Year.
Chidom improved substantially to start as a sophomore, but her game took another big step up in a key component this season.
"My confidence, the mental aspect of the game, being able to lead my teammates more," she said.
O'Dowd coach Malik McCord agreed about Chidom's growth in confidence.
"Her Achilles' heel used to be that she would be too hard on herself," McCord said, adding Chidom's confidence grew after she played for the USA Women's Under-17 World Championship team last summer. "She was a different person. It just let out a confidence that she was lacking somewhat in herself."
The Duke-bound Chidom learned from that experience. "Just being around girls that had all the confidence in the world, seeing how they were able to stay at a constant mental rate the whole time," she said.
Chidom's presence was felt in the Northern California regional playoffs this season, where she averaged 16.3 points and 11 rebounds per game. She had 17 points and 12 rebounds in the Dragons' 58-50 win over St. Mary's-Stockton in the Northern California Open Division regional final. Hampered by foul trouble in the state championship game, she helped a Dragons surge in the fourth quarter with six of her nine points, and she grabbed 12 rebounds and blocked two shots in the win of Windward-Los Angeles.
Chidom has seen progression in applying her skills.
"I worked my butt off in the gym," she said. "The skill set was always there. I was finally able to apply it."
McCord pointed to her midrange jumper, rebounding and on-ball defense as improving this season.
"We worked on that a lot," said McCord, referring to her on-ball defense. "She would be guarding guards."
Chidom knows something about challenges.

Following graduation from high school, she attended one year of teacher's college. In the late 1930s, Isabel enrolled in Mankato Beauty School; she spent the next 52 years operating her own beauty shop in Franklin, retiring in 1990. Isabel was a member of Church of the Sacred Heart where she served as a Eucharistic Minister. She belonged to CCW and was a member of the church choir. Isabel was a Campfire Girl. She belonged to the Franklin civic club and the Franklin Women's Civic Club.
Isabel is survived by nieces and nephews.

ADAMS TWP.-As Colorado-based PDC Energy continues to develop its first horizontal hydraulic fracturing facility northeast of Lowell, local residents say they are glad to see improvements the company has already made to a 3-mile stretch of Dixon Ridge Road.
"This road was in such terrible shape I was concerned that it was damaging our car but the improvements have made it 100 percent better," said Dea Welch, who lives across the road from the site where PDC has just completed groundwork for the first drilling pad in Washington County.
"I think they're doing a good job on the road so far, but they still have to bring in the drilling rig and equipment," said Steve Schmidt, who was mowing his mother's property along Dixon Ridge Road Tuesday.

The Marietta Times
Although they're not required in the Road Use Maintenance Agreement with Adams Township, signs indicating oil field traffic should maintain a speed limit of 15 mph have been erected along Dixon Ridge Road by PDC Energy.
He noted PDC has to be sure the road is in good enough shape that heavy drilling equipment can be transported to the site.
The road work, being performed by United Sealing of Devola under contract with PDC Energy, includes graveling and widening of the roadway and installation of culverts and other drainage structures. Much of that work is covered under a Road Use Maintenance Agreement (RUMA) between PDC, Adams Township and Washington County.
Another RUMA, for roads accessing two more PDC drilling sites to be built in Waterford Township, has been inked by the Washington County Commissioners and has been sent to Denver, Colo., for PDC officials to sign.
Fact Box
Road prepared for drilling
Denver-based PDC Energy has completed groundwork on the first horizontal hydraulic drilling pad in Washington County along Dixon Ridge Road in Adams Township.
The company is expected to begin moving drilling equipment onto the site within the next few weeks.
PDC has contracted with United Sealing of Devola to make roadway improvements on an approximate 3-mile section of Dixon Ridge Road over which the drilling equipment will be hauled.
Washington County and the Adams Township trustees have also entered into a Road Use Maintenance Agreement with PDC to keep the road in good repair before and after the drilling operations.
A second road maintenance agreement has been signed by the county commissioners for Waterford Township where PDC has plans for two more drilling sites. The agreement has to be signed by PDC officials in Colorado before that work begins.
By entering into the agreement, drilling companies basically promise to repair and maintain roads damaged due to the movement of trucks and other heavy drilling equipment over county or township roadways.
"Before the company can even get started on road improvements to a well site, we negotiate the road use agreement," said Washington County Engineer Roger Wright.
He said a pre-condition survey is conducted on the roadway and the drilling company submits plans to the county showing what improvements the company wants to make before the work is done. If it's a township road Wright also reviews those plans with the township trustees.
"When the company eventually leaves the drilling site, we also review the roadway to see if any damage has been done," Wright said. "According to the road use agreement they'll fix any damage and put the road back in as good or better shape than when they began."
He noted that it's not uncommon for drilling companies to finish an operation but later return to that site to drill more wells, so the county allows the RUMA to be suspended temporarily in such cases in order to alleviate additional paperwork if a site is re-opened.
"The company also coordinates the road work with local school districts to minimize impacts to bus routes," Wright said.
Adams Township Trustee Wayne Isner called the RUMA with PDC "one of the best things that's happened for this township."
"The money they've already spent on culverts, stone and everything else is probably in the hundreds of thousands of dollars-and we couldn't have spent that much on our township roads in 20 years," he said, noting all of the county's townships have been dealing with budget cuts over the last couple of years.
"PDC has done everything they told us they would do on this road. And they've never tried to 'buffalo' us," Isner added. "We would highly suggest that all of the townships work with the county to develop a road use agreement with these drilling companies. If anyone has any questions they should come out (on Dixon Ridge Road) and take a look."
County Commissioner Ron Feathers said the road improvements by PDC have addressed issues like drainage that the township nor county could have afforded to fix in such a short period of time.
"Before the work began I reached out to other areas of the state like Carroll County where oil and gas companies have been doing horizontal drilling," he said. "In 2011 those companies spent nearly $30 million on road improvements there."
Feathers said Washington County may not see that amount of roadwork by companies like PDC but entering into Road Use Maintenance Agreements makes sense to protect the local county and township roadways.
"We encourage all of the trustees to participate in road use agreements if companies are planning to set up operations in their townships," he said.
Dixon Ridge Road resident Adena Matheny lives less than a quarter mile of the new PDC drilling pad.
"We've lived here for five years now, and the company has been improving the road up to the entrance to the site," she said. "We used to call the hill leading up to the drilling site 'Washboard Hill' because it was so bad for years. It's in much better shape now."

Costuming themselves as ghouls and attempting to scare passersby is something that comes quite naturally to middle school boys.
Five years ago, Mary Witt figured out a way to turn that fact into a money-making proposition.
"The boys are always so enthusiastic and whacko. They have a lot of fun," said Witt. "These kids are just devils in disguise and they are going to be football Devils next year."
This Friday and Saturday, from 5 to 8 p.m. the Eagle Valley Middle School football team will again present its Haunted Barn fund-raiser at the Brush Creek Park. The boys do the haunting and the money raised goes back into their program. Since they started the event in 2007, they have purchased a scoreboard, better helmets, new jerseys and goal posts. Last year's event raised $2,760.
Witt said one of the best aspects of the Haunted Barn is it's a kid-driven fund-raiser. "We don't really need a bunch of parents to do everything. The kids do it themselves," she said.
That includes using some discretion - the scaring is intended to be age-appropriate and there is no physical contact allowed. But within those parameters, everyone finds a way to have a good, albeit sometimes startling, time.
Witt hopes some of the Haunted Barn alumnae will drop by this weekend. "This year's seniors at EVHS were the first year we did the haunted barn. We're hoping a bunch of the high school football players will come by."

Cottonmouths, also called water moccasins, get their name from the white lining of their mouths, which they will show when agitated.
Cottonmouths hold some prey in their jaws allowing their venom to take hold, but some prey, mainly those that will fight back, are struck and then released. The snakes will then follow the scent of this prey if the small animal runs away. In the wild, cottonmouths eat a variety of animals, including fish, turtles, birds, and mammals.
As pit vipers, cottonmouths have heat-sensing pits between their eyes and nostrils. They are able to detect temperature differences of less than two degrees and this allows them to accurately strike out at prey.
Females produce up to 12 living young once every two years. Because cottonmouths are oviviparous, the eggs develop and hatch within the body of the female. While adult cottonmouths are black or olive green, juveniles are brightly colored.
Range: southeastern United States
Habitat: wetlands, lakes, rivers

"We felt that trying to play this game tonight would have been a horrible experience for the fans as well as pretty much just unsafe for Michigan State and the Lugnuts."
Nick Grueser, GM of the Lansing Lugnuts
It was supposed to be the site of a big game... But now it's just the site of a really big tarp,
Tonight's crosstown showdown between the Lansing Lugnuts and the Spartan baseball team has been postponed a few weeks thanks to this relentless rain.
The team is disappointed, but they are no stranger to strange weather.Jeremy Smoker, Director of Marketing for the Lugnuts says "April is always a tough month in Michigan, and unfortunately in the sport of baseball we have to deal with the weather outside."
But spring means baseball, and the league opener is scheduled for tomorrow. The team is optimistic that they'll be able to hit the field soon.
"The field, considering the amount of rain we've taken, is actually in pretty good shape.... Probably couldn't play tonight but hopefully it holds off a little bit and we can play tomorrow. Grounds crews have being doing a fabulous job."
Grounds crews plan to work throughout the night and into tomorrow. And the team says that there will be plenty of games played, rain or shine.
Tomorrow's game time is set for seven-oh-five... And it happens to be freebie friday--- where you get two-for-one deals on food. Games are also set for Saturday and Sunday afternoon--- which happens to be kids day.

'Not so'
Published: Monday, June 10, 2013 at 2:11 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 10, 2013 at 2:11 p.m.
Hendersonville's Doug Freeman is suggesting Larry Mobley of Hendersonville is plenty misguided on gun control. "Words matter," says Mr. Freeman, "and in my letter published May 12, I should have posed my question to owners of assault weapons by asking, 'Why do you need such a weapon' instead of using the word 'want.' But in the latest response to my letter, Mr. Mobley initially changes the conversation to the issue of mental health, and he fails to endorse universal background checks due to his concerns about confidentiality. By dismissing a reasonable proposal on the mental health issue, he jumps to the erroneous conclusion that proponents of measures to curb gun violence want 'to take guns away from everyone.' Not so, Mr. Mobley! Keep your hunting rifles, shotguns and pistols, but keep them safely, and, at least, begin reducing access to guns by those who should not have them. Mr. Mobley then addresses my question about assault weapons. He repeats the mantra of the conspiracy crowd that we need our guns to protect us from an imaginary autocratic government. Such a government does not exist today, although it is a remote possibility one could arise in the future. If that should happen, and even if a citizenry is armed with assault rifles, the firepower of the military is so much greater that it leaves no doubt about the outcome. I suggest our citizenry would have a much better chance by conducting massive nonviolent demonstrations in every town and city than by rampaging citizens firing assault weapons in the streets. My original question asking why civilians need assault weapons still begs a rational answer."
'BETTER SCREENING': Gun ownership doesn't have to be a difficult subject, says April Drake of Hendersonville. "When all the world goes to crap, I guess I must wonder how people are going to protect their families if they don't have a gun," she says. "If people want to buy a gun, they should be able to. We just need better screening. The stores card people for alcohol and cigarettes. Why not guns? Just don't sell a gun to people with a history."
WHO WANTS TO GO?: It's not too late to sign up for the Aug. 19-23 Mountains to Molehills On The Road trip to Washington, D.C.

It's official. The De La Salle High football team will be opening the 2014 season at Levi's Stadium.
The Spartans will play Jesuit-Carmichael in the nightcap of a doubleheader on Aug. 29 at the San Francisco 49ers brand new home.
Wilcox-Santa Clara and Manteca will play at 4:30 p.m., followed by De La Salle and Jesuit at 8 p.m.
The 49ers had reached out to the schools about the possibility of the doubleheader months ago, but the deal only became official on Tuesday.
"It's a once in a lifetime opportunity," De La Salle athletic director Leo Lopoz said. "We had a chance to tour the stadium before it was complete. I can only imagine what it'll look like when it is complete."
The De La Salle vs. Jesuit game will be televised nationally on ESPN2.
"The 49ers are very pleased to play a role in bringing the Friday Night Lights matchups to Levi's Stadium," said 49ers CEO Jed York in a statement. "High school football is a great tradition that deserves to be played on the game's biggest stage, and we look forward to sharing a special experience with these young men, their coaches, family and friends."
Tickets can be purchased at LevisStadium.com and include discounted student tickets.
