Kilkenny and Dublin served up a feast of hurling in Nowlan Park on Sunday when the Dubs scored six goals and 12 points against the Ireland champions and still lost!
Kilkenny came storming back in a whirlwind second half to rack up the winning score of five goals and 16 points, enough to win the NHL game by a single score.
Three points from Matthew Ruth at the end of play saw the Cats emerge victorious on a 5-16 to 6-12 scoreline as they maintained their 100% start to the league season.
Cats boss Brian Cody said, "It was amazing the way the game turned out and I'm sure the crowd that turned out enjoyed it.
"Obviously, we weren't happy at conceding six goals, but we got the win we wanted and it's another two points for us in the league.
"What pleased me most was the perseverance we showed when it looked the game was slipping from us on more than one occasion.
"The players refused to lie down and kept at it. Different players stood up on different occasions and took the game by the scruff of the neck. We got the goal late on and that proved decisive in the end."
Dublin boss Anthony Daly believes his team did their county proud even in defeat, and he praised several players in particular.
"Danny Sutcliffe is making great progress, playing very well. He's got a great attitude, and in fairness to some of the other young players, like Eamon Dillon, who came in and got a great goal, it's great credit to the system Dublin have in place, that they can bring through fellas like that, and they're ready for the step up," said Daly.
"And Joey Boland too, after a stinker against Galway, by his own standards, he really had a look at himself, and he was outstanding the last two games. Michael Carton too.
"And to have David O'Callaghan coming back as well is great. We weren't sure if he'd even make it to half time, because he has very little training at all done, having been out with pneumonia. We were going to take him off at halftime and he asked for a few more minutes, and in fairness he came out and got the old goal straight away.
"So there are some positives, sure. It's just disappointing not to get something, two close games in a row.
"I suppose we are at least competing with Kilkenny, on a regular basis, although they still normally end up winning. But look, we still think we can compete at this level.
"We're still National League champions. It doesn't look like we're holding on to the title, but until it's given over to someone else, I suppose we are still champions."
Tyrone Wins
TYRONE sealed promotion to the top flight of the National Football League with a well deserved win over Galway on Sunday, but manager Mickey Harte wants his team to carry on the winning habit.
"At the start of the season we said we wanted to win as many games as possible to get ourselves out of this division," said Harte after a fifth consecutive league win.
"Straight wins is the way to do it, we need to keep the roll going by winning games. It's ironic that when the conditions got bad our players got a spurt of energy.
"We had ourselves ahead at halftime, probably against the run of play, and we knew if we went out and won the second half we'd be in a good place. We won't be sitting down thinking we are world beaters, we are a work in progress and we have plenty more to do."
Harte was furious, however, after corner back PJ Quinn was sent-off for an off-the-ball incident involving Padraic Joyce.
He added, "PJ Quinn says he was just pulled around and, in the swing-around, his foot hit him in the knee or somewhere, that he never kicked him or anything they are putting him down for.
"He is adamant that is not the case and I would well believe it. He has never had a red card in his life."
Sean Cavanagh made his return to the Tyrone colors in the game after a shoulder injury and admitted afterwards, "I feel good. I'm a bit tired but that was my first competitive game in seven-and-a-half months. It's good to get the lungs open and last the 70 minutes, and it was all about the result.
"It's mission accomplished. We are qualified and we can push on now. The guys are working really hard. You need to be in sublime condition to do that and we are lucky to be in such good physical fitness to be able to play that sort of football.
"It's early days yet. It's only March but things are moving in the right direction."
Kerry Wins
KERRY'S newcomers were to the fore again as the Kingdom crushed hosts Cork in the NFL tie on Sunday, boosted by an impressive start.
Goalkeeper Brendan Kealy praised the new Kerry players and said, "It's great to see it. They've come in there and haven't looked out of place. They have settled in perfectly. It just makes training and everything that much better when everyone is fighting for their place."

FREMONT -- Police arrested a man with a BB gun at a Walmart store Friday after he was overheard by patrons saying he wanted to shoot people, police said.
Officers responded to the Wal-Mart store at 44009 Osgood Road about 11 a.m., where a 911 caller reported a 46-year-old man was "acting bizarre" and making comments to customers about his desire to shoot people, Officer Scott Sanders said.
"There was a heavy police presence, as there will be any time someone threatens to shoot people," Sanders said. "But the man produced no weapon."
Police did recover a BB gun from a duffel bag filled with the man's belongings, Sanders said. There was no violent confrontation between the man and any customers.
Officers arrested the man and placed him on a psychiatric hold, Sanders said.

After failed DLNA server connections (Error 7531), the media server connects, but the folder on the PS3 is the network icon, not the PS3MS icon.
I cannot connect to play content. Nothing changed between last night and tonight, and now I can't play a thing.
Also, PS3MS wants to connect with my computer first. It always seeks that IP. Is that the problem? When I enter filter IP, or connect to IP (I have the PS on a dedicated DHCP IP, DMZ, ports open on firewall, etc) it comes up error.

Hey All -
Not much to report. No run today (rest day). Going to do 3 to 6 miles tomorrow on TM. Need to stretch out this stiffness from my 10k. Mainly came on here to post the goal, so you guys can keep my feet to the fire.
OSHCAT - dye race sounded neat. Looked it up online. Was it a 5K? Seems like thats what many of them are.
MELODYLEA- good luck with the Musher stuff for the pups paws. My pup is getting better at being house-trained, but still needs a lot of work. Seems like her legs are getting longer already (2 wks).
Sherb- 2000 people filled up in 36 hours? Sounds like a great race.
jmsab - you are right, I was "just bones". (not quite!) lol. I had one guy, who I think was in last, yell "Hey Bones!" The outfit did get me some attention, and that was fun. I'll have to think of a new gimmick for next race.
Im thinking of doing a PENGUIN PLUNGE. Thoughts? Its something I have thought about for a couple years. Usually, I think about it when it is happening, and that is really too late. Its a fund-raiser for Special Olympics. Went to the website. I have 3 weeks and need to raise $75 to make it happen. The bigger question is, should I? I have a huge grin right now, so, Im thinking I will. Time to start growing out the back-hair.

Trail runner
OK, THIS was the coldest run of the season! It was 2 degrees with a wind chill of 5-10 below zero when I headed out this morning. I was dressed right, but some odd things seem to happen in this kind of cold. First, my MP3 headphone wires froze! They no longer worked and all I could hear was a metallic tin-can sort of sound. Second, there was 1/4" square space above my goggles, so I got "brain freeze" for about 2 miles. Adjusted the goggles, which caused them to fog up and then ice over on the inside...it was kind of ridiculous, but me and my pup "got 'er done"! My dog was very happy to get home and next to the wood stove! LOL
Snerb Greetings, buddy! I agree about running as our therapy. I hope the new year will be kinder to you. YAY for Primal! Whoot. Almost a year for me. That race sounds exciting, enjoy those Brooks.
Old Coyote I personally am open to any forum as long as I can follow YOU ALL over to the next venue.
az2mn CONGRATULATIONS!!! So very happy for you, your daughter and son in law...everyone. Welcome to the world, Isabella!
JEFF CT Actually I've been using the "Mushers Wax" for a few years, it works great. Cant wait to see more pics of new puppy. Re: PENGUIN PLUNGE...I think you're nuts! LOL In a good way, though.

For 2013:
Memorial Day 5/26 10K- I hope to raise $3000 for animal charity in my "Run For The Critters"
Maine Marathon 9/29- I hope to finish 2:30
Ran 5k around the neighborhood in 26:29 (a personal best for me).
Just started running on 12/3/12 and am doing the C25K program, but skipped the first two weeks. I'm in week 7 and running a full 5k each time. Got my first 5k race coming up on 1/19.
Then it's on to 10k training!
Ran some 400 and 200 repeats yesterday after a full set of core/strength XRs. With 2-mile warmup and /12 mile cooldown, totaled 6.5 miles -- 52:47. Decided to wait a while for next attempt at faster mile. Last one was 9.4 MPH (6:23), but lately 9.2 and above has been tough for just 1/2 mile, so I guess I'll have to work back up to it.
Took a look at 2012 results last night. Ran my first-ever (and still best) HM in April -- 1:39:02. Broke my 10k PR in June at my second-ever race for that distance -- 45:31, then broke that in July with a 44:51 time in a race of 6,500 runners (highlight of the year for me). Set a new 5k PR in June -- 20:41. And ran my first-ever 5-miler in July -- 35:36. Probably my best chance for a PR in 2013 will be the 10k or the HM. I'll keep plugging away and hope for.............what else??........ THE BEST!!!
Az2Mn.... I had a smile that kept getting bigger as I read your post about Isabella. A New Year's baby!!! And on your anniversary day!!! ConGRANDulations!!! My best to you and your daughter and the entire family.
Melody.... I never thought about road salt when I walked any of our dogs. Good to know. Your run today sounds as crazy as the Penguin Plunge idea.
JeffCT.... They call them Polar Dips here in ME. Not for me. I don't hit the ocean up here until August!!
Snerb.... Great news on the health front!! Grats to both you and your girlfriend on getting the diet working and the numbers in order.
Ran 3.81 in 35 minutes. My energy level was low. Temp was 30 with bright sun. I am logging my mileage on both MapMyRun and Runners World just to be safe!
az2mn - What a wonderful New Years gift! It was worth all the waiting!
Jeff - Loved the skeleton suit. You should wear it for the Polar Bear Plunge!
Oshcat - My 3 DD's did a Color Run this past summer. I was their official photog. They had color everywhere and we had to ride home on the train. There was color all over the train saets!
Melody - You are an inspiration with your cold runs. i tell myself that if Melody can run at 2 degrees, I can run at 28! I will have to get some of that Mushers Wax for my dogs.
Coyote - I did what you said to log on and it seems to be working! Thanks!
Snerb - Way to stick with what works for you! I know running keeps me sane.
Tim - Great job on your time! You will probably be even faster in the 5K on the 19th. Good luck!
Jmsab - Wow! You had an impressive year with lots of PRs. Awesome atttitude as well!
Stay Healthy and WARM, Runners!
Pictures from the Color Run my DD's ran in August.

Snerb, running as therapy, are you kidding? That's why I'm doing it! Feeling great is always good!!
Igotwings, I wear shorts under my tights.I can't feel anything as it is now from the waste down because of the cold.
JMSab, I'll bet your overall pace has sped up. You just logged 5 mi. at 36.16. It may not be a PR but trends matter!
FrancesMom, Bose earbuds sound heavenly! Enjoy them !! I rarely run without music. It calms me and keeps me going in so many ways! I'm liking the idea of the Philly RnR. I prefer my races in early summer and not running the Philly Marathon would free me up to run the Route 66.
Every year at this time I MISS THE MUMMERS!!
Welcome to the new folks! keep us posted on your runs!! Jeff, nice costume!!
Deb, your run with the cancer patient was so inspiring! My goals are reach goals, not realisitic ones. I expect I'll run a little faster and farther.
Mel, 7 degrees!?! When it's too cold for the equiptment to work properly, it might be too cold for the humans. Just thinking? I don't expect to run 2 fulls this year. I thought about it and Scott talked me down off that limb.
Oshcat, "fluffball"? HA! It sounds like your Color Run suffered from the cold. They advertise a color station at every kilometer so there would normally have been four with the start/finish. I bet they had too few volunteers and did the best they could with what they had. Hopefully you'll get a chance for a summer run.
OC - You have such a great spirits!! Wonderful idea for your NY run! You rarely see coyotes sitting around drinking out of boredom.
Had 695 miles on Endomondo for the year on 12/30 and didn't feel much like running. DD left her germs and I am definitely sick this time, powered by meds and coffee I can't taste. I found a bunch of runs on another program that never made it to Endo and added them in. The final mileage says 714 and it's probably around 750. I'm ok with that. Tried running NY day but struggled through a mile. One Mile! Final = 3 mi.in 41 min. and at least 1.5 of that was walking so maybe I went out too fast, also. Oh, who cares. I shouldda stayed in bed. Went home and made soup that I couldn't taste.
2013 long races as of this moment:
3/17 Heart Mini Marathon (10k or HM)
4/27 Kentucky Mini Marathon - HM
5/5 Flying Pig Marathon
5/18 Run With the Foxes (Maybe)
9/15 Philadelphia RnR HM
10/20 Columbus Half Marathon
11/10 (maybe) Freedom Marathon
11/24 Route 66 HM or Philly
Let me know if you plan to be around?
You all Have Happy and Strong runs!!

It won't be easy but it will be worth it!
YIPPEE!! Ran 9.1 miles, 1:47:45. Tough run in the snow, about 20 degrees, 15 mph wind, sunny and clear. Tried to run on trail lined with more trees but the shadows made it more cold and the farther I ran into the woods, the deeper the snow. Most of this particular trail have been used by cross-country skiers, hikers/walkers but hardly any runners. No problems with the higher altitude, about 6,500 ft. Some slushy spots but the deeper parts of the snow and short inclines challenged my legs and ankles.
Melody: compared to your frigid running temps, my run today was in a 'heat wave' ......... you're one tough die-hard!!
Snerb: great way to manage life's interruptions, I know my healing skills comes in handy during my runs when dealing with some difficult times; good for you!!

I carry out nearly 4 - 5 kms.. in recent december...
I am trying to improve over it ..
Francesmom - I often wonder how I would handle a dog with "issues" or a wild critter - good thing he didn't sink his teeth into you.
Jeff - put some weight on, you're all bones. Penguin Plunge? brrrrrrrr
jmsab - you're fast. If I cranked the TM up to 9.2 mph I'd go flying right off the back of it!
OshCat - glad you had fun! I'm not sure I'd like all that powder blowing at me - and certainly no one would be getting in my car after that! LOL
MelodyLea - I don't know how you do it. The temp here was 5 degrees this morning with a windchill of -6 and I rolled over and tucked my head under the covers.
Snerb - running is therapy, and then I get so busy I don't have time for my therapy, therefore needing it all the more.
AZ Happy Grandbaby!!!!!!! Congrats! And on your anniversary, too. Post a pic when you can. hugs!
Tim - nice work!
OldCoyote - as long as we all go together, I'll migrate to another site. It's not where you are, it's who you're with that counts.
MaryKay - feel better, but I must admit I love your spirit - nothing keeps you down for long.
So I wimped out this morning. It was 5 degrees with a windchill of -6. I didn't even want to get in the car and go to the Y. On the up side, saw my hematologist today and my iron levels are moving in the right direction - she told me to keep doing whatever I'm doing re: medication/diet.
I will report on a run tomorrow - outdoors or TM - but I'll be running.
6.2 miles 57 min. Champion Hills. I saw three sunsets. First on Ecco mt. then the sun dropped behind hebron mt. Second when I topped hebron and third when I got to little river valley.
I think we should change to dailymile. Easy format. You choose friends so it will be easy to stick together. Or runningahead. Most of my RW peeps are leaving rwol and changing to RA. RWOL's new format is slow and you get spammed to death.
Man ya'll are running in some cold temps.
Mel how hard is the mush wax to get off? Does it make a mess in the house?
AZ congrats!!
Jeff you're having too much fun. Keep it up.
jmsab it looks like the 10k will be your best chance at a new PR. Your 5k and 1/2 times are fast,
Az, I'm still a newbie and these races are like power gems on a video game that I'm trying to grab. It seems every time I set my eye on one, there's some obstacle like a sell-out or too short time limit. I've only registered for the AF HM right now but had to plot the races to make sure I'd have time to do it.
NHLA, I LOVE the way you find beauty in things others just see!! I'll move if you all want to. Between your suggested sites, I'd prefer Dailymile since I'm registered there and using the site for a local group project.
Feeling better but that means I'm realizing how bad I felt. I was really sick this time. I don't even mind that I'll have to work when I get back into running but that could be the medicine talking; all I want to do now is sleep but that could be the medicine talking, too. MucinexES and Zpack and Advil Cold and Sinus. Ohmmmm. Love that you all are growing and stretching your limits!! JM, may I ask how old you are?
Run strong and, yeah, you know the rest....

Francessmom Good job "gettin' 'er done!" Yes, the Mushers Magic is awesome stuff.
mkayc You sure are "plucky" as my Alaskan sis would say. You just keep after it no matter what!! I think you may be right Re:"When it's too cold for the equipment to work properly, it might be too cold for the humans. Just thinking?" LOL
az2mn Fantastic 9 mile run!! Whoot. Thanks, Re: "you're one tough die-hard!!"
Debm2011 The Dr.s report is a good one. We'll be waiting for the run report.
NHLA The "Mushers Magic" wears right off. It has the consistency of Vaseline and doesn't seem to leave any marks or stains on the floors or carpet. My dog sort of slips around in the pickup because she tries to stand on the console between the seats (silly girl)!

Hey All - Got in 3.25 miles on the TM today. Was supposed to do a run yesterday that didnt happen. For some reason, these 3 miles were pretty hard for me. I think its just that I need to get into the rhythm. barely been running lately. its been forever since I used the TM. Speed was 0:37 faster, but almost 6 miles shorter than my last 6 runs. Im gonna try to get in another 3 tomorrow, just to get over 10mpw. And to get back into this.
Before I forget to say it, I am thankful for all of you. If you all want to move to another site, just let me know. I havent really had any problems with this site as far as the blog goes. The rest of the site I have had issues with, but you are all a great group - I really look forward to sharing and to reading your status updates.
Melody - that is some cold weather. 2 degrees? I agree that once your equipment starts freezing up, maybe thats a sign. Im impressed you did it. Thats what I love about this site, its both a place to brag, and a place to relish in the accomplishments of others. And it works out to be a huge motivator.
jmsab - Polar Dips huh? I orignially wanted to do something where I dropped into the water, and hopefully I climbed out on my own. The pics I am seeing of the event I signed up for, are of people running into the water, maybe knee deep then running out. My PLAN, is to splash my way in all the way to my waist, then dunk my head under and be 100% under. Sounds a bit the the "Polar Dip" term, but running in gives you more time to acclimate/chicken out. A friend of mine is volunteering for a "Dip" or something in CT but that one supports Breast Cancer research and has Texas Roadhouse Chili afterwards. Im so shallow, I want to go where there is free chili. If it was in the same town, the Chili dunk would win.
Frances - I like the idea of the skeleton suit for the plunge - I like the idea of standing out, but I probably wont do it. It takes some time to get on, and off. If Im freezing, I'll want to be dry FAST! Also, I assumed by the look of the suit that it would hold at least a little heat. It doesnt. I dont want people thinking that Im toasty warm. Oh, there is also the thing about it covering my face. If Im drowning, it may take people a little too long to save me when looking at my smiling skeleton face. But still, I like the skeleton idea. Need to think on it.
MKC -700-750 miles in 2012? Way to go! I think I got close to 400. I didnt run every month. 2013 is going to be great!
AZ 2- 9.1 miles in the snow. Doesnt sound easy. Good job!
Deb - I have been going back to bed too much lately. I think I'll be doing the TM as an improvement to staying in bed. My goal (for now) is about 10-20 mpw. If I can maintain that, it will give me a good jumping-off point for the Spring, or whatever date I am able to hit the trail again.
NHLA - 3 sunsets. Nice! Great timing and great trail.

My Home Energy Report
A look inside your energy use
With easy-to-read graphs, you'll be able to see how your home performs each month, as well as over the past year.
Here's how it works:
- On a regular basis, you'll receive a report in the mail.
- The report compares your energy use to similar households in your community.
- You will also receive tips on how to reduce your energy use, giving you opportunities to improve the numbers in your report.
Take this bar graph for example. At a glance, it's easy to see whether other households like yours are spending less or more on energy bills. You can see that "Your Home" is using a little more energy than similar homes and also more than an energy efficient home. It's an easy way to get an overall understanding of your usage and how you can save.
Seeing your home's monthly performance is one thing, but how you trend over time is another. With this line graph, you can see how you did during the past 13 months to make sure you are moving in the direction you want to go.
What's in it for me?
Ever read an energy tip and wondered, OK, but how much would that save ME? Wonder no more! When we say, "What can I do to save money and energy," we mean YOU. Each tip shows how much money your home is likely to save. Here are examples:
What can I do to save money and energy?
Low or No Cost, Simple Habit
Use power strips on your
home computer system
Save up to $24 per year
Many electronic devices draw power even when they are off. This "standby" power use can really add up. For instance, field research has shown that only two percent of home printers energy consumption is used printing, and 98 percent of their energy consumption is wasted in "standby" mode.
Plug your peripherals into a traditional power strip or surge protector, which you can buy at most hardware or electric stores. When you are done using your computer, turn the power strip off.
Smart Investment, Big Savings
Install a programmable
Save up to $162 per year
Install a programmable thermostat and program it to set back or set up the temperature when you're not home and while you sleep at night. This can save you significantly on your heating and cooling bills.
Make sure to choose a model that is compatible with your heating and cooling systems. Many models come pre-programmed with a typical household's user profile to make it easier to program.
Here is a guide to the report, showing where you will find energy efficiency tips. Have questions? Check out our Frequently Asked Questions page, or feel free to contact us.

Color-coded placards will soon hang in Santa Clara County's 8,000-plus food service establishments, providing diners insight into whether the fare being served has been prepared safely.
The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a proposal Tuesday that will require restaurants to reveal whether they've passed inspection by the county's Department of Environmental Health.
"There's a clear public health imperative here," said Supervisor Joe Simitian, who came up with the proposal.
Restaurants with no more than one major violation will receive a "pass" or green placard while those with two or more will receive a "conditional pass" or yellow placard. Those that do no correct violations within three days or are closed by the county will receive a "fail" or red placard.
In addition to the placards, food service establishments will be scored on a 100-point scale to indicate their overall compliance with food safety regulations. Those scores, along with detailed inspection results, will be posted on the Department of Environmental Health website.
Simitian said the new system is intended to help residents make more informed choices and ultimately improve food safety.
"Right now, the system we've got essentially rewards people who do just barely enough to get by their inspection and treats them precisely the same as the folks who are doing an outstanding job," said Simitian, adding that awards will be handed out to those who excel.
Simitian called food-borne illness a "significant public health issue." He pointed to an estimate by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that 48 million Americans, or one in roughly six, are sickened every year. Of that number, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die.
"This really is a significant public health issue," he said. "This is not simply a question of trying to provide more information, although that's an important part of the effort, I think."
A handful of speakers, including Kevin McClelland of the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce, raised concerns that the new system would actually mislead restaurant patrons.
McClelland offered one example where two food service establishments receive green placards but different scores. He said the one with the higher grade could have been docked for one major violation, whereas the one with the lower grade could have been docked for a few minor violations.
"There is an issue and concern around the online scoring that has the unintended consequence of being misleading to consumers," McClelland said. "For a consumer to think that the 92 restaurant is somehow better and operating safer than the 88 is misleading."
Simitian admitted that he would choose the restaurant with the higher score but defended the system as straightforward.
"If you're red, you're closed," he said. "If you're green, you're doing OK. And if you're yellow, people get to know that you've had significant problems in the recent past and they might want to pause for a moment."
The system will be introduced as part of regularly scheduled inspections, county staff said.
The full cost of implementation likely won't be known until fiscal year 2016, according to a report by Amy Brown, the county's director of agriculture and environmental management. Food service establishments could end up paying an additional annual fee of $100.
In a related move, the board approved the creation of two environmental health specialist positions, which are expected to cost a total of $306,005 in fiscal year 2015, the report said.

Health Information > Condition Information > Alpha-1 Liver Disease
Reviewed on 6/12
By Dr. Sandhaus
Robert Sandhaus, MD, PhD
Dept. of Medicine
View full profile
The inherited condition alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency can cause liver disease in children and adults.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin is a major protein in the blood that protects the lungs and other organs in the body from being damaged by our own inflammatory cells. It does this by inactivating enzymes released by white blood cells whose purpose is to destroy foreign invaders like viruses or bacteria or infected cells. Without alpha-1 antitrypsin to turn off the destructive power of these defensive enzymes, they start to chew up the bodies' normal proteins.
A person who has alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency makes a defective version of this protein in the liver that tends to misfold, polymerize (forms long chains of many molecules bonded together), and accumulate within liver cells. When this happens, the alpha-1 antitrypsin polymers (chains) cannot be transported out of the liver cells where they are made. This has the dual effect of clogging liver cells and of not allowing delivery of the protein to organs like the lungs that need alpha-1 antitrypsin to function properly.
Although rare, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, also known more simply as Alpha-1, is the most common genetic cause of severe liver disease in children. While the incidence of Alpha-1 in the US is about 1 in 2000 live births, less than 5 percent of babies born with Alpha-1 will have severe liver disease. Since Alpha-1 is a genetic condition, a person needs two copies of the faulty gene (one from each parent) to have the severe form of this condition.
There are over 20 million carriers of a single gene for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency in the U.S. If there is concern about passing on Alpha-1 to your children, a genetic test is available to determine if you are a carrier. It is probably not necessary to get tested unless you or your family members have a history of Alpha-1, or of COPD, emphysema, or unexplained liver disease.

The original god of Israel was El. This reconstruction may be inferred from two pieces of information. First, the name of Israel is not a Yahwistic name with the divine element of Yahweh, but an EI name, with the element, "el." This fact would suggest that EI was the original chief god of the group named Israel. Second Genesis 49:24-25 presents a series of EI epithets seperate from the mention of Yehweh in verse 18...Similarly, Deuteronomy 32:8-9 casts Yahweh in the role of one of the sons of El, here called elyon.

Today's letters: No to clock tower
Published: Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 25, 2013 at 4:59 p.m.
To the editor: Of all the must-sees on U.S. travel lists, I havent found a single one that includes a clock tower.
Come to think of it, I dont ever recall wanting to see a clock tower on my vacations. I did think about the Bok Tower in Florida once, but thats a 205-foot bell tower in a pretty garden.
So why does Hendersonville City Council want to spend $60,000 on a clock tower?
Why would visitors or residents stand in awe of a clock tower when within 50 feet is an impressive one in the First Citizens Building? In fact, most people have probably seen one since there are two pages of 200 in Wikipedia.
According to the Times-News, Overall, public comments showed support for the sculpture design by Bruce White of Dekalb, Ill. Mr. Whites design was soaring, inspiring and unique and preferred by the public who are paying for it.
Why are we being ignored? Our community is vibrant, and it is a disservice to us to settle for a Disneyland/Dollywood substitute.
Elected officials, please step back and reconsider. I can say this with surety, there isnt a major tour organizer coming here for a clock tower unless its 205 feet high.
Eva L. Ritchey
Common sense
To the editor: I read with dismay the gun control comments by our new sheriff. Ive met Sheriff Charlie McDonald and was impressed by his intelligence and character.
I get it that Republican politicians think theyre scoring points by touting the Second Amendment and swearing to defend it. But when the highest law enforcement official in our community says: I will always defend that right. And I think a lot more people really need to start doing a gut check and decide where they draw that line what does he mean?
If his gut check doesnt align with laws coming from Washington, how exactly does he envision drawing that line?
The U.S. has by far the highest gun ownership rate on the planet. Per capita, we own 14.1 guns for every gun in the U.K., and have 40 times the firearm death rate! Its not a matter of freedom; its a matter of common sense.
Its long past time for leaders like the sheriff to show some courage and resist the urge to pander to the dangerous and worn-out platitudes of the NRA. Its long past time to create a society thats safe for our children and the rest of us.
Ken Gaylord
Frightened souls
To the editor: The tragedy of 9/11 should never be forgotten. The continual trashing of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights in the guise of national security, public safety, the greater good, whatever, is unacceptable. A child can understand this.
The past 12 years have seen American freedom replaced by government harassment, intimidation, bullying and surveillance of every description. These activities arent for your protection; theyre all about control. And control. And control. To all of you who feel more safe: How pitiful. Paraphrasing Ben Franklin: Those of you who are willing to sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither.
Our courthouse is now under lockdown with a security checkpoint. As Im neither a criminal nor a terrorist, I refuse to be treated as such. The resulting impasse effectively denies my access to due process. Of course, I will be told to get over it. Thats the type of convoluted logic that has us in this miserable mess today.
Weve become a nation of frightened souls who have elected to place our fate into the hands of a severely dysfunctional state.
So much for the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Downtown Kingsport businesses receive support after flood
KINGSPORT, Tenn. - The Downtown Kingsport Association received 37 applications for funding to offset expenses and losses caused by the devastating floods that hit the community in July.
The fund requests that the committee reviewed totaled to approximately $333,000 and varied in type of damages and costs caused by the disaster.
In the process of reviewing, the committee divided these costs into three categories: flood clean-up expense, inventory loss and restoration cost.
The priority in awarding funds was to aid in clean-up expenses.
While the flood relief funding was not able to completely cover the $333,000 in total relief requests, all 37 applicants will receive funding.
The checks were to distributed the merchants Tuesday.
More than $61,000 was given to the businesses in downtown.

SAN JOSE -- Milos Raonic sent the SAP Open out of the Bay Area with a bang on Sunday. There were several bangs, actually, including one clocked at 148 mph.
Raonic blasted 19 aces, including four in his first service game of the match, to set a powerful tone for a relatively easy 6-4, 6-3 victory over Tommy Haas and claim his third consecutive SAP title at HP Pavilion.
Alas, the 22-year-old Raonic, who was born in Yugoslavia but moved to Canada with his parents at age 3, won't get a chance to extend his Bay Area dominance. After 125 years, the Bay Area will be losing its men's tennis tournament toMemphis, Tenn., in 2014.
"It's already come up as to what to play next year, since there isn't going to be this event," Raonic said. "I'm really sad to see this go. It was like a go-to move in my schedule, one part that was never discussed. It was always, 'Let's go back there.' "
A lot of people are sad to see the tournament go, but Raonic didn't give the crowd of 5,114 much time to get nostalgic or wistful about the demise of the SAP on its final day here. He dispatched Haas in just 75 minutes.
Raonic joked afterward that he would have liked to roll up the HP Pavilion court surface, put it in his bag and make off with it. To be sure, it's been awfully good to him. Over his three-year title run -- something that hadn't been accomplished in the event since Tony Trabert from 1953-55 -- he went 12-0 and was broken just twice in 124 service games.
This year, he didn't even face a break point in his 39 service games and won all eight sets he played without even being pushed to a tiebreaker.
"A lot has happened here," Raonic told the crowd after the match. "I've grown a lot here. I've had my best matches here. It's something pretty special."
Haas, who was game but overmatched almost from the start, agreed.
"There was nothing I could have done," the 34-year-old German said. "I didn't play a bad match. I just came up against a guy who played some unbelievable tennis. He didn't give me any looks on his serve."
After Haas won the first game of the match, Raonic stepped to the service line and started firing bullets at varying speeds and angles. His four-ace opener came at speeds of 144, 143, 123 and 148 mph.
But unlike hard-serving John Isner, who was beaten in straight sets by Haas in the semifinals, Raonic also brought a polished power forehand, a deadly accurate two-handed backhand and an all-around aggressiveness that set him apart from the rest of the field.
With the score 30-all in the third game, he broke Haas with a scalded cross-court return winner and a backhand down the line. That pretty much did it for the first set. Haas won just seven points against Raonic's serve in the entire set.
In the second set, it was even more lopsided. Raonic lost just four points on his serve. Haas held his own serve early and forged a 3-2 lead, but Raonic turned on the power to win the final four games and the match.
After breaking Haas to take a 4-3 lead, Raonic faltered briefly with two double faults in the eighth game. But at 30-all, he pummeled aces of 143 and 127 mph to effectively close the door.
The question now is whether Raonic can build on the foundation he built in San Jose -- three of his four ATP Tour titles have come here -- and take it to all parts of the world, most notably in the Grand Slam events against the Big Four of men's tennis: Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray.
"Look, if you put a Grand Slam in this arena, I would put him up on that list for sure," Haas said. "But he has a chance. He's one of the guys who has the firepower, and he's still young and getting better, so you have to like that. If he starts feeling it elsewhere like he feels it here, he's going to be tough."
From Raonic's view, he feels he is ready to graduate to another level.
"I think I'm a much better player in general, I think I'm a much better competitor, and I have more experience, so I know better how to deal with situations," he said.
In the doubles final, Xavier Malisse and Frank Moser beat Lleyton Hewitt and Marinko Matosevic 6-0, 6-7 (5), 10-4.

David Irving, Hitler and Holocaust Denial: Electronic Edition, by Richard J. EvansTable of Contents
|<< (B) Bending and misinter...
|< (A) Irving's claim in Hi...
(C) Inventing documentary evidence: Himmler's phone call to Pohl
1. As we have seen, Irving claimed in the 1977 edition of Hitler's War that on the following day, 1 December 1941, Himmler telephoned SS General Oswald Pohl with the order that 'Jews are to stay were they are'. Himmler's phone log for 1 December 1941 does indeed confirm that he spoke to Pohl that day. Himmler summarised their conversation as follows:
'Besuch bei Schwarz.
Verwaltungsführer der SS
haben zu bleiben.
Lappenschuhe u. Finnenstiefel'85
Verwaltungsführer der SS
haben zu bleiben.
Lappenschuhe u. Finnenstiefel'85
2.The relevant part of this entry for the matter under discussion consists of the third and fourth lines, which together make a single sentence. They translate as follows: 'Administrative leaders of the SS are to stay'. Thus, what Himmler talked about with Pohl was not that Jews were to stay were they were (i.e.safe from liquidation), but that the administrative leaders of the SS had to stay where they were. The term 'Jews' is not mentioned by Himmler in his phone call at all. It is simply fabricated by Irving, a fabrication which he has continued to repeat in other books, such as the 1991 edition of Hitler's War.86

The following checklist is a guide for 3L students to use when navigating the many requirements to become a member of the California State Bar. Although the checklist is based on all available information, fees and dates are subject to change and students should always refer to the state bar website to be certain. Please also see this handout provided by the State Bar of California for more information. Students applying to take the bar in another state should refer to the ABA's Comprehensive Guide to Bar Admission Requirements to determine the rules and requirements for that state.
What You Must Do/ Questions to Answer Before The Bar
Register with the Committee of Bar Examiners as a law student:
You only register once. Registration must be completed before filing any other forms with the State Bar. You must have an approved registration within 10 days of filing your application to take the California Bar Examination. You may complete the registration application at the following link on the California State Bar website:
When will you take the MPRE exam?
The Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE) is a two hour multiple choice exam administered by the National Conference of Bar Examiners. It is required for admission to the California State Bar as well as almost every other jurisdiction. The MPRE is only offered three times per year, usually in April, August, and November. Exam information and registration may be found at the following website:
$80 if timely registration
$160 if late registration
How will you study for the Bar? Will you Register for a Bar Review Course?
Several options for test prep programs are available to students. If you are concerned about increasing prices, sign up during Bar Sweeps week which happens once per semester at UC Hastings to lock in the current year's rate. (You may have already done this as a 1L.) This is not time time to base a decision solely on cost. Take a moment to think about your learning style and what will work best for you. Research the various bar companies to determine which will fit your needs the best. Students may select where to take the course from a number of options in January if they plan to take the July bar.
$4,000 (average)
Register to take the California Bar Exam:
The California Bar Examination is a three day exam administered in February and July each year. Applications for the July bar exam will be available March 1, and should be submitted no later than April 1. The final filing deadline will be in June. For registration and other information, please see the following website.
Complete the Moral Character Application (This takes a while!):
All applicants to the CA State Bar must submit the moral character application. The application takes a minimum of six months to process, but the State Bar recommends applicants file 8 to 10 months prior to the date at which they wish to be admitted to the bar. So if you plan to graduate in Spring and take the July CA bar exam, you want to be considered in good standing BEFORE the July bar exam results come out in November. Therefore, you should really submit your application as early in Fall semester as possible but no later than the beginning of Spring semester of your final year in law school.
The application requires education, residence, and career information dating back to high school. Students should allow ample time to prepare. Failure to file in a timely manner may delay your admission to practice law. Once approved, the application is valid for 36 months. You may complete the moral character application at the following link on the California State Bar website:
Once you have completed the application, you must print it and sign the Authorization and Release form. Make sure that the first page contains a bar code - if the first page does not have a bar code, it is not valid. You must attach all required documents listed in the application within 10 days of submitting the application in an envelope to the following address:
Office of Admissions
845 S. Figueroa Street
Los Angeles, CA 90017
Get Live Scan finger printing done:
All California Bar applicants must submit their fingerprints through Live Scan in order to determine whether applicants have a criminal conviction. The Moral Character Application will not be considered without properly submitted fingerprints. Your fingerprints are valid for 90 days, so you should submit your moral character application within 90 days of getting your fingerprints done. Live Scan fingerprinting services will be offered on the Hastings campus during each semester. Please bring $25 in cash or as a check made out to Pettey Ventures. You will also need a valid driver's license or ID. Sign up for fingerprinting at the Student Services office.
More information regarding the requirement can be found on the State Bar website:
Will you write or type the exam? Register to Use Your Laptop:
If you wish to use a laptop during the examination, you must apply online and select a laptop-compatible testing center. You may initiate the application process upon receiving your bar admittance ticket (approximately ten weeks prior to the exam).
Additionally, the State Bar requires that laptops meet certain compatibility standards. Information detailing these standards and registration for use of laptops may be found on the State Bar website.
Do you need an accommodation? Petition for Testing Accommodations:
This is a petition process, not an application process. Students must prove that they fall within the protections of the American Disabilities Act. The burden of proof is on the student, and students must meet the level of proof required in order to be accommodated. Please plan ahead. The petition process can take a very long time. Should you have questions, the Director of the Disability Resource Program, Lisa Noshay Petro (email@example.com ), can help counsel you on the petition process as well as on appeals.

Leprosy Today
Today, the diagnosis and treatment of leprosy is easy and most endemic countries are striving to fully integrate leprosy services into existing general health services. This is especially important for those under-served and marginalised communities most at risk from leprosy, often the poorest of the poor.
Access to information, diagnosis and treatment with multidrug therapy (MDT) remain key elements in the strategy to eliminate the disease as a public health problem, defined as reaching a prevalence of less than 1 leprosy case per 10,000 population. Only a couple of endemic countries have still to achieve this goal at the national level; most are now applying the same elimination strategy at regional, district and sub-district levels. MDT treatment has been made available by WHO free of charge to all patients worldwide since 1995, and provides a simple yet highly effective cure for all types of leprosy.
According to official reports received from 103 countries and territories, the global registered prevalence of leprosy at the end of the first quarter of 2014 stood at 180,464 cases, while the number of new cases detected during 2013 was 215,557 (excluding the small number of cases in Europe).
Most countries that were previously highly endemic for leprosy have achieved elimination at the national level and are intensifying their efforts at regional and district levels. During 2007, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mozambique reached elimination at the national level, and were joined by Timor-Leste by the end of 2010. However, pockets of high endemicity still remain in some foci in Angola, Brazil, the Central African Republic, India, Madagascar, Nepal and the United Republic of Tanzania and in previously highly endemic countries, such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mozambique. These countries remain highly committed to eliminating the disease, and continue to intensify their leprosy control activities.
Information campaigns about leprosy in high risk areas are crucial so that patients and their families, who were historically ostracized from their communities, are encouraged to come forward and receive treatment. The most effective way of preventing disabilities in leprosy, as well as preventing further transmission of the disease, lies in early diagnosis and treatment with MDT.

|This is the highpoint of my home county, so I have been here many times. One time was June 23, 2002. I rode my dirtbike up the Twin Crags Road from Latour Creek until the snow got too deep. There was one stretch that I could not get through. I hiked north to the top of the ridge, then east to Latour Peak. Mirror Lake was still mostly frozen. I then walked the ridge south to the Benewah COHP, which has a very flat summit. Trees surround the summit, and I figured there was at least 15 feet of snow which blew in all winter and melted very slowly. I have been there in June, July, August, September, and October. In 2006 I found two snow patches on Aug 12, and there was a skiff of fresh snow in mid October. I was told by residents of Cataldo that the trout in Mirror Lake used to bite on anything you'd throw at them. I don't know if this is still the case, as it is frozen for the majority of the year and is very small.

DOE and USDA Award $47 Million in Biomass Research Grants
Biomass research and development projects to produce biofuels and other products from feedstocks such as algae could help diversify U.S. alternative fuel resources.
DOE and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced on May 5 a total of $47 million to fund eight research and development projects that will support the production of biofuels, bioenergy, and biobased products from biomass sources. The advanced biofuels produced through these projects are expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50% compared to fossil fuels.
The projects are funded through the Biomass Research and Development Initiative, and they will help increase the availability of alternative renewable fuels and biobased products. Funding is provided through USDA's National Institute of Food and Agriculture and DOE's Biomass Program. Each award was made through a competitive selection process, and recipients are required to contribute a minimum of 20% of matching funds for research and development projects and 50% of matching funds for demonstration projects. Awardees must pursue projects that integrate science and engineering research in three areas: feedstocks development, biofuels and biobased products development, and biofuels development analysis.
The selected proposals include Cellana LLC of Hawaii, which will develop a protein supplement from algae as a byproduct of algal biofuels production; Exelus, Inc., of New Jersey, which will redesign a process to make hydrocarbon fuels using new catalysts and chemistry that avoids the high temperatures and large energy inputs required by current processes; and Metabolix, Inc., of Massachusetts, which will enhance the yield of biobased products, biopower, or fuels made from switchgrass. DOE's Biomass Program works with industry, academia, and national laboratory partners on a balanced portfolio of research in biomass feedstocks and conversion technologies. See the DOE press release and the Biomass Program website.

Regardless, if you're processing tomatoes you're going to need something to help you separate the seeds and skins from the pulp and juice. Food mills work great for this too. So beg, borrow or steal one and let's make tomato sauce from scratch!
5 pounds ripe tomatoes, washed and cored
Olive oil
salt and pepper
3-4 cloves garlic, peeled
1 onion, quartered
1 bell pepper, halved, seeded
1-2 tsp sugar, depending on if you like your sauces sweeter or notter.
Italian seasoning (a couple of tablespoons)
Dried basil (a teaspoon or so)
1 tsp salt
pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil. Cut tomatoes in half or quarters, depending on size. Quarter onion. Cut pepper in half and remove seeds. Take garlic cloves and wrap in a small piece of aluminum foil. Place tomato pieces, onion quarters and pepper halves in a large bowl. Coat lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Distribute among the baking sheets in a single layer. Add the garlic bundle to one pan. Roast in oven for 25-30 minutes, rotating pans about half way through. The tomatoes will start to break down.
Remove pans from oven. Remove garlic cloves from foil. Take peppers, onions and garlic cloves and place them into food processor or blender. Puree to a creamy consistency. Using slotted spoon, and leaving the watery residue behind, transfer tomato pieces to strainer or food mill and force juice and pulp through. The strainer will separate the pulp and juice from the skins and seeds and you'll find them left behind like this:
Combine tomato puree with the food processor contents. Add Italian seasoning, basil, sugar, salt and pepper.
Now here's where we're going to change it up a bit. I'm used to making sauce on the stove, stirring often, and basically becoming a slave to my sauce pot until the sauce has thickened to my desired consistency. Today I decided to throw the whole thing back into the oven and let it be the slave!
Spray a large jelly roll pan with cooking spray and place the pan into a preheated 300 degree oven. Pour tomato puree into pan. Learn from my mistake here, because if you do this step in reverse, you're going to have a very, very full jelly roll pan that you're trying to place into the oven and it will get quite messy as you transfer it.
Set timer for one hour. Go watch Army Wives or read your Dean Koontz novel. Or get on the treadmill if you're one of THOSE types. When the timer dings, stir the mixture and reset the timer for one hour. We're going to keep doing this until the mixture is the desired consistency, and this all depends on how juicy your tomatoes were to begin with, as well as how thick you want your finished sauce. For me that was three hours. I wanted a very thick sauce to use as a pizza sauce. Here's the consistency I opted for.
