It's been a long two weeks in the Mills-Burgess household. With our near 4 year old (November!) having just started Kindergarten, I've been on a new mission lately to create diverse, delicious yet nutritious lunches for my little guy.
I've been serving up his favourites and he's been coming home a lot having barely touched his lunch. But today? Today my friends we experienced sweet victory and it happened in the form of quinoa.
I know.
Little ones are strange aren't they? They'll love a certain food one day and hate it the next. Now, I'm not saying your little one is going to gobble this dish up – but chances are good. In the very least, you'll love it – I know I did! Recipe below…
4 cups of cooked quinoa (great source of protein!)
1.5 cups of diced and cubed cucumber
1.5 cups of diced and cubed tomatoes (I used heirloom ones from our garden, yep – totally bragging)
1 cup minced red pepper
2 cups of diced and cubed apple (your choice of type)
1 cup of dried cranberries
3/4 cup of fresh minced mint
1/4 cup of lime juice
1/4 cup of maple syrup
1/4 cup of grapeseed or flaxseed oil (I used flax, omega rich!)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt or Herbamare
2 cups of diced avocado
1. Cooking quinoa is so so easy if you haven't done it before. It's just equal part water to the quinoa. It will essentially double when cooked, so 2 cups of water (brought to a boil), and adding in 2 cups of quinoa will render you approximately 4 cups. Once the water has boiled and you've added the quinoa, cover and simmer on low for approximately 20-30 minutes, until all of the water is dissolved.
2. While the quinoa is cooking you can prep the rest of your ingredients! Wash and cut all the vegetables, mint and apple, putting it all into a medium sized bowl when done. Cut the avocado and set aside. (You don't want this to be mixed with everything else, you want to save it to top the salad.) If you're quinoa is done at this point, you need to chill it. I made this the morning of, in a rush – so I put it in the freezer and kept turning it over every couple of minutes to get it cold quickly.
3. Combine the cold cooked quinoa with the rest of the ingredients that you prepped in Step #1 into a bowl. Drizzle the oil you chose, maple syrup and lime juice all over that fragrant, mouth-watering display of colour. Add the salt and toss. Serve individually and let peeps top with the avocado themselves, or leave it in the bowl and put all of the avocado on top.
You may note that this makes a big salad! Quinoa keeps excellently in the fridge for up to 2 days – this is a great snack or meal or even breakfast for any Stage 3 eater and up. My whole family loves it!

King's Lynn Stars rider Darryl Ritchings vows to race again after crash at Swindon which left him in a coma
PUBLISHED: 11:38 29 April 2014 | UPDATED: 11:38 29 April 2014
A speedway rider has vowed to ride again as he spoke about the accident which left him in a coma for 12 days after suffering bruising on his brain.
Darryl Ritchings, 19, who competes for the King's Lynn Young Stars in the National League, was competing for hometown Elite League club Swindon Robins when it happened on April 3.
The teenager from Purton, Wiltshire, had made his debut for King's Lynn just 24 hours before the accident.
Mr Ritchings, who has lost a stone-and-a-half in weight since the crash said: "I know I have to have the rest of this year off because I'm not allowed to ride a bike or have driving lessons or anything but, being completely honest, I probably will come back to speedway and race again.
"It's hard to say yes or no for sure at the moment but when I am walking again I really hope I will be back.
"I can't ride this season and that's sensible because of the head and brain injuries I've suffered but if it was only my ankle I would probably be back on the bike as soon as I could walk."
The young rider collided with Coventry reserve Jason Garrity during his Robins home debut against the Bees on April 3, hitting the Abbey Stadium fence.
After being knocked unconscious, he suffered a seizure, bruising to the brain and a broken nose and ankle.
Mr Ritchings, who has a 10 month-old daughter Poppy with partner Shelby, was transferred to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, before being woken on April 15 and was allowed to go home and recover with his family.
"All me and my brothers have done is ride bikes, it's been our lives, and if I didn't do it again it would be like losing a leg," he said.
"I think my family will all be around me and I'm sure they will all support me if I decide I want to ride again."
"To be honest I think when I get back going down to the workshop every day and things like that I will really start to miss it."
Mr Ritchings, who now suffers with some headaches and blurred vision, hopes he will return to the track Thursday evening - but only as a spectator to watch the Robins take on Birmingham.
"Hopefully, if I feel alright, I will be up there but I will have to wait and see how I feel in the morning," he said.
"I've been going out for little drives with my brother just to get me out of the house and we've been up past the Abbey Stadium and it's felt a bit strange. It's hard to take it all in."

HOUSTON - It was lunchtime when Local 2's Amy Davis dropped in the Taco Bell at 5772 Hollister. A week earlier, inspectors said they found off-temperature taco meat, rice and chicken, no hot water and flies in the kitchen.
The manager on duty told us she was not allowed to talk with us and told us any statements would have to come from the corporate office.
"Corporate wasn't here, but you're in charge of the store, right?" Davis asked her. "Can you just tell me why food was off temperature?"
"No, we can't make any statements," she said.
After watching the exchange from his place in line, would-be customer Jose Ortega decided to head back to his office without a burrito.
"What would you rather have heard her say?" Davis asked Ortega. "Hopefully that they would've fixed the problem, or that they're doing something to fix the problem."
If managers did fix the broken cooler we told you about two weeks ago at the Bullritos on Weslayan and Richmond, it's broken again. Inspectors said the shrimp and cheese were a warm 56 degrees when they stopped by.
Maggiano's Little Italy on Post Oak near the Galleria had a repeat violation. Inspectors found pink slime in the ice machine back in April. This time it was pink and brown.
At Ruchi's El Rinco Mexico Grill at 11460 Fuqua, inspectors said they saw a roach crawling across a package of beef in the food prep area.
They said the cheese and french fries were off temperature at Beck's Prime at 2902 Kirby.
However, just up the road at 3320 Kirby, Hendrick's Pub gets an A. Arby's at 8611 Westheimer earns one too. Both had spotless inspections.

Great post! Looking for further update! Games can be entertaining too! Why not buy runescape accounts ?
Kudos to Courtney for getting that discrepancy on the front page of the Courant and in other news outlets (he lives in town). That is a very good question about which version people will remember, the printed page or the spoken word accompanied by images? It might be interesting if a year or two from now they test student movie viewers that were made aware of the error and see what they recall.
Interesting post, Vicki. While I enjoy historically based films, I typically don't expect total accuracy (unless it is a documentary). That said, the scene in which Lincoln slaps his son disturbs me. I have done a lot of research on Lincoln and his interactions with his children, and there is no evidence that he behaved or would have behaved in such a manner. On the contrary, many of his contemporaries believed he was too lenient.
Important post. Unfortunately, not enough people are skeptical about the movies and the press. The best nonfiction authors for kids know from experience that plenty of folks believe what they see in the movies or in certain biased or inaccurate news reports. How do we know this? Because these non-scholars regularly call us out to say we got the facts wrong when we have actually taken great care to fact-check our sources and write the truth.
Vicki, thanks for mentioning my Just the Facts post.
Here's to sticking to the truth! Great post.
***runs off to work on line edits and digs and digs***
The Orbis Pictus Award has very strict standards for what constitutes nonfiction. They accept absolutely no fictionalized "information," or at least they did not when I was on the committee. So, good nonfiction can be read when watching historical dramas to note the difference.

Snowboarder Soderholm earns back-to-back gold at Revolution Tour
February 8, 2012
Steamboat Springs — Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club snowboarder Haille Soderholm won a pair of gold medals last week at a Revolution Tour in Ostego, Mich.
Soderholm won the women's half-pipe contest with a frontside 720 helping her land on top of the podium.
Soderholm, 15, followed it up with a win in the slope-style event. Her slope-style run consisted of a back flip, a frontside 360 and a backside 360.
Kyle Kelley took third place in the men's half-pipe with a massive frontside 900. Kirby Kelly was second in the women's half-pipe and also earned Female Best Trick with a McTwist. Lindsea Lumpkin finished third in the women's slope-style.

Written by Gary A. Braunbeck
Published by Necessary Evil Press
I have a fear of growing old alone. I think, if they were honest with themselves, most humans would admit to the same fear, though it's not something a lot of us dwell on for extended periods of time. There are things you can do to prevent eventually ending up old and alone, but dwelling constantly on the thought that you may end up that way is not one of them.
For Martin, however, it's been in his mind for a long time. After the death of his father and mother a few months apart from each other, he suddenly realizes that he has no reason to continue living. What does one do when one has run out of reasons to keep going? For some suicide is the only viable option, and Martin goes about the planning of his almost professionally, going so far as to consult a how-to manual to make it as quick and fool-proof as possible.
Before he can finish the task, however, he shows up at local mental health facility and is admitted of his own free will. Realizing he didn't want to die as much as he had once thought, he still has some issues and begins to doubt his sanity when hallucinations from his time under heavy amounts of drugs begin to show up in reality. Soon he is told that not only does his life have meaning, but to one very important person he is the only hope for a peaceful existence in the universe.
Gary A. Braunbeck's In the Midnith Museum is a novella that promises great things to come from this underrated author. The characters within its scant 138 pages come to life seemingly effortlessly, which is a skill some authors spend 300+ pages (if not multiple books) trying to hone. Because Martin and the staff of the mental hospital he spends the book's 48 hours within seem so very real, it helps the reader be that much more accepting when Martin begins to learn the truth about his role in the universe.
That leads to another piece of high praise for Museum; the idea at the story's core is incredibly original (to me at least, some references are made to books like Atlas Shrugged so it may not be 100% so) and gave me a sense of wonder I was not expecting judging by the tone and pacing of the first half of the book. As the truth unfolds, the focus becomes bigger and bigger, and it's a tribute to Braunbeck's skills that it does so realistically enough that it doesn't feel clumsy or forced.
The only real complaint I had was with the end, the final battle as it were, which to me seemed a bit too cliché for all that had come before it; but it certainly wasn't enough to ruin the overall story or put me off Braunbeck's writing. Indeed, I can't wait to get my hands on more of it, hopefully in full-length novel format, as soon as possible
In the Midnight Museum is available as a limited edition hardcover novella through Necessary Evil Press, so if you're interested in checking it out, and I highly recommend you do, utilize the link above to purchase it.

Cards fit in rehab outing for Motte
ST. LOUIS -- One day after manager Mike Matheny said there would not be enough time to get rehabbing righty Jason Motte out on an assignment before the Minor League season ended, the Cardinals announced that Motte had joined the club's Double-A affiliate to make an appearance on Sunday.
Motte's temporary addition to the Springfield roster gives the Cardinals even more reason to pay attention to that Double-A game under the lights on Sunday. Michael Wacha, who is recovering from a right shoulder stress reaction, is scheduled to start the game and will throw 30-40 pitches in his first game action since June 17. Motte will come in at some point behind him.
Motte, who has been on the disabled list with a lower back strain for nearly a month, threw off the mound three times in preparation for this next step. If the Cardinals determine that Motte needs only the one rehab appearance, he could be activated as early as Monday.
"He's going to go down and hopefully get a feel how it's coming out when he gets on the mound," Matheny said. "He needs to throw and get ready to be healthy and come back here and help us."
The Cardinals will wait to announce Wacha's next move until after his outing on Sunday. With Triple-A Memphis advancing to the Pacific Coast League playoffs, the club does have the option of sending the right-hander to Memphis for a second rehab appearance later in the week.

Bad news for owners of Dolphins RB Brown
Michael Fabiano | Tags: Ricky Williams, Ronnie Brown
NFL Network's Jason La Canfora is reporting that the Dolphins will place RB Ronnie Brown on injured reserve, which effectively ends his season.
Brown, who injured his right foot last week, had developed into one of the best running backs in fantasy football. In fact, he was ninth in points at his position on NFL.com. But his season will be cut short for the second time since 2007.
In his absence, RB Ricky Williams will see a more prominent role and becomes a viable No. 1 fantasy back. QB Pat White also figures to see more time in the Wildcat, but he won't make much of a fantasy impact.
Williams, on the other hand, will make a huge impact.
With games against teams with poor run defenses like Carolina, Buffalo, Kansas City, Tennessee and Houston still on the schedule, Williams is going to lead a lot of owners to a title.

The How I Met Your Mother finale has fans in an uproar, but a few disgruntled viewers think that they now have the perfect solution: An online petition asking producers to change the ending.
The petition has over 8,000 signatures (and counting) to change the long-running series final episode, but the odds of it actually happening remain to be seen.
The HIMYM finale saw Ted and Robin reunite after the mother, played by actress Cristin Milioti, dies. And it was just too much for some of the long-time fans to take.
The show's creators, Craig Thomas and Carter Bays, have responded to backlash following the show's series finale on their Twitter accounts, and thanked fans for sticking with the show through its 9-year run.
"The fact that we have been a TV sitcom that has received this much passion from fans, for nine years (not just tonight) — thank you," Thomas wrote on his Twitter.
"We wrote a comedy with dramatic elements till the very end," Thomas tweeted a little later, followed with: "We did a finale about life's twists and turns and that is not always what happens … but THANKS!"
Despite the backlash following the show's finale, the episode was the series all-time best rated, with 12.9 million viewers tuning in on Monday night.
Annoyed fans have even gone to YouTube in order to change the final episode themselves, completely taking out the fact that Ted and Robin ended up together. Instead Ted and Tracy share their chat under the yellow umbrella, and then the clip to Ted saying, "And that's how I met your mother," before fading to black. That clip has since been taken offline.

Prospectus Hit and Run
Loose Threads: Central Division
Continuing what I started with the two East divisions on Friday, I've identified one nagging question I have about each team coming out of spring training, one loose thread that I can't resist tugging upon as the season nears. Today, it's the two Central divisions.
AL Central
Beyond the two big sluggers at the corners, Jhonny Peralta won't win any Gold Gloves at shortstop, and if Ryan Raburn is indeed the regular second baseman, the team could open a butcher shop at Comerica Park to generate additional profit. As I wrote a couple months back, the offense produced by this unit will ultimately matter more than their defense, but since the club hasn't made any real commitment to a DH in the wake of Victor Martinez's season-ending injury, the question is how stubborn manager Jim Leyland will be in clinging to the Cabrera-at-third alignment if he and the pitching staff struggle.
Indians: Ubaldo's Rebound
A look at Jimenez's peripherals shows that his walk and strikeout rates (3.7 and 8.6 per nine, respectively) were essentially unchanged from 2010, while his home-run rate doubled from 0.4 to 0.8 per nine, and his BABIP spiked from .274 to .315 (.314 in Colorado, .318 in Cleveland). Both should regress at least somewhat given his track record (0.6 HR/9 and .290 BABIP), but even club president Mark Shapiro conceded publicly that the team's defense isn't particularly well-suited to his ground ball-heavy staff, with Asdrubal Cabrera's work at short the weakest link, and the eventual return of Lonnie Chisenhall displacing Jack Hannahan not helping matters, either. Jimenez once thrived under the difficult conditions of pitching half his games at Coors, but can he survive this?
Royals: Yuni OMGWTFBBQ?
Giavotella already forecasts as the better hitter according to PECOTA, with a .258 True Average compared to .249 for Getz and .245 for Betancourt, but he's being sent down because the club wants him to work on his defense. While Giavotella has graded out as a few runs below average per year during his minor-league career, Betancourt is 40 runs to the bad as a shortstop during his major-league career according to FRAA (though +10 in the last two seasons), while Getz is six runs above average. Obviously, the Royals must walk a fine line between developing players and attempting to win, but can having Betancourt receiving regular playing time give anyone any benefit, particularly the pitchers in front of him?
White Sox: Dunn or Done?
Twins: Still the M&M Boys?
NL Central
Reds: Aroldis' Role
When closer Ryan Madson went down with a torn ulnar collateral ligament last week, early indications were that Chapman would switch back to the bullpen, and with top set-up man Nick Masset also injured, he may yet, but he has continued to impress as a starter. Will Chapman secure a starting job, and if he does, will he be safe in the hands of Baker, who's not exactly known for having a deft touch with young pitchers?
Cardinals: Pain in the Neck
Pirates: Pray for Pedro
Cubs: Garza Going?
No, the biggest trade chip the Cubs have to further their rebuilding effort remains Matt Garza, who's 28 years old, making $9.5 million, and under club control for one more year. Garza is coming off career bests in ERA (3.32), strikeout rate (9.0 per nine), and homer rate (0.6 per nine), and while he generated plenty of interest over the winter, the Cubs resisted all offers. Now Hoyer has suggested that the team might want to sign him to a long-term extension and build around him, but the roster certainly doesn't suggest the Cubs are that close to contending. Is there such a thing as an eight-figure annual deal that makes sense for a non-contender, or are the Cubs just trying to create additional cost certainty before renewing their efforts to market the righty?
Astros: Catch as Castro Can
I'll be back with the two West divisions later this week.

Reds announce that Aroldis Chapman will head back to the bullpen. Yeesh, Dusty gonna Dusty. http://mlb.sbnation.com/2012/4/2/2920372/aroldis-chapman-reds-bullpen-rotation
Apr 02, 2012 11:57 AM
Sigh, yeah, it's unfortunate, but it does actually make some sense in the short-term considering that (a) the rotation still has 5 serviceable arms and (b) the bullpen is hurting from injuries to Ryan Madson and Nick Masset.

Pictures From the Frontline
January 29, 2009
As the allied forces from Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo and Southern Sudan comb Garamba Forest where the barbaric LRA rebels have been hiding, Lango Web correspondent Ronald Odongo has sent pictures from the frontline which disprove claims by some Acholi Legislators that government troops bombed empty camps and killed only monkeys. Some of the pictures haven't been published because they are too graphic, but they do confirm that LRA rebels have been hit hard and are being effectively eliminated.

NATALYA WILSON discovers what makes Thixendale's artisan producers so special ahead of Tuesday's Taste of the Wolds event
"CHILLI? And jam? That must be weird for breakfast." This is the reaction that Simon Barrett, aka The Chilli Jam Man, often gets in response to his innovative food products when he takes them to market.
"I call it the Peter Kay effect, like 'garlic? And bread?'," laughed Simon, who lives in Thixendale.
"So I ask people if they'd like to try it, and that's how it works."
Simon has been producing his range of award-winning mainly savoury chilli jams since June 2009, when he took a few jars of the jam he produced in his own kitchen to Pudsey Farmers' Market, near Leeds.
"I'd been making these jams in my own kitchen since 2000, when I'd returned to England from living in Australia, where I'd been exposed to some fiery Indonesian and Malaysian flavours. I found there was a great big gap in my cupboards that needed filling," said Simon.
"I used to be a mortgage broker and when the recession hit, I found myself without an industry. I always knew there was a market for these jams I made and people said 'don't be daft' – so I decided to give it a go."
From producing a few jars in his kitchen each day, he now makes batches of 1,200 in his factory in mild, medium and hot flavours. The jam is slow-cooked like curry and is a versatile product that can be eaten on its own, and used as a chutney, to flavour dishes or as a base for curries.
"All the jams contain completely natural products – I like to know the provenance as much as I can, but more than that, I like to team up with other local producers and work with them."
This includes Adam and Jennie Palmer of Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil, who Simon met at York Farmers' Market, and who also live in Thixendale. In fact, it was because of a developing partnership with them that Simon and his family moved just across the road from them 18 months ago.
"We've teamed up to make 'Jamonnaise', a chilli mayonnaise, plus a range of salad dressings and oils, and I've also started building other partnerships with other local producers to make sausages and pies and ice cream with Yummy Yorkshire Ice Cream and even brownies with Brown and Blond.
"We small producers very much work with each other and support each other. It's a lovely, close-knit community and I'm proud to be part of it."
Thixendale has been dubbed 'the most artisanal village in the Wolds' and, with only 130 inhabitants, there are three independent food producers, as well as Robert Fuller's art gallery, where Jennie is staging the first Taste The Wolds event on Tuesday, 7.30pm-9.30pm. It's a free tasting event to showcase local food and drink producers and an opportunity for people to create bespoke Taste the Wolds Christmas hampers or buy ready-made ones.
"A lot of people know we are here but don't necessarily know what we do, so this relaxed and informal event will allow local people to see what we do," said Jennie.
"Because we are independent producers, they might not necessarily see our products on the shelves, though the pub and gallery do stock them, and perhaps people don't know much about us, so it's bringing the community together.
"Victoria at the gallery suggested it as part of Robert's winter exhibition and now producers from some of the surrounding villages are also taking part."
Jennie and Adam, who have been arable and sheep farming at North Breckenholme on the Garrowby Estate since 2001, came up with the idea for Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil after Adam put in place pipes for sustainable fuel in 2008.
"The 'waste' was this fantastic oil product, and we had a tasting evening where it went down very well, so we decided to bottle it, taking it to a farmers' market at Murton in 2008. And from there it has really grown over the last four years," said Jennie.
Now they produce a range of flavoured and natural rapeseed oils, all for cooking, including their 'Original' and 'Deli' ranges, which include flavours such as ginger, basil garlic and chilli, plus six dressings and two mayonnaises, stocked at independent delis in Yorkshire, which they also take to farmers' markets.
"Everything is made with as many locally-produced ingredients as possible and we came up with all the recipes ourselves," said Jennie.
"We get plenty of feedback from people at farmers' markets who ask about certain flavours or make suggestions.
We like to play around with flavours."
Jennie believes that they are very lucky to live and work in Thixendale.
"We have formed quite close relationships with other producers and 'share' products with Simon, the Chilli Jam Man," said Jennie.
"It keeps you a little bit more involved, as we bounce ideas off each other."
Julia Medforth of Raisthorpe Manor Fine Foods, which produces all manner of award-winning liqueurs, agrees that Thixendale and the surrounding area is vital to her business.
"We're a shooting estate and we would give our home-made raspberry gin to parties for 'elevenses' during 'flyers'," said Julia.
"It was my grandmother's recipe and people from all over the world who come shooting here enjoyed it, so we decided to bottle it and sell it."
In 2008, the company was set up and the gins were produced in two rooms of the house. Since then, Julia and the team at Raisthorpe Manor have extended the range and now produce a whole range of fruit gins and liqueurs in their factory in a former cow shed, including their gold award-winning sloe gin, plus chocolates and preserves, and the only sloe port and sloe sherry produced in the UK.
"We attend a number of shows and exhibition and that's where our customers get to know us, and suggest ideas," said Julia.
"We use local ingredients; the strawberries, raspberries and damsons are local, and many of our sloes are found on the estate, underneath the three trees made famous in a David Hockney painting.
"We like to bring out something different and always like to try new things. It's all trial and error," she added.
"We've recently come up with Raisthorpe Wild Vodka in chocolate and caramel and green apple. We're always thinking of new things.
"We're really looking forward to the Taste of the Wolds event as it makes people aware of us. It's good to keep the community together and a lot of our staff are local, which also helps the local community by keeping people in work.
"When you live here everyday you don't really know how special it is, but Thixendale really is a lovely place."

Dec 25 Christmas morning run
This year's Christmas morning run was the most successful to date. Perhaps it was the particularly fine un-seasonal weather that swelled the numbers. More likely it was the desire of the participants to support St Vincent de Paul, this year's beneficiary of your generous contributions. The total when counted was slightly in excess of eleven hundred euro. Well done all.
Dec 21 Senior CC
The senior ladies competed over one and a half laps of the 2K course in Bramblestown. In total nineteen ladies, representing six clubs, went to the start line. First to take the lead was Ann Doyle, Gowran. Ann held the lead for one third of the way but entering the second third of the race she was passed by a succession of runners. Showing very prominently at this stage were Ciara Everard and Caoimhe Foley, both Kilkenny City Harriers. Last year's winner, Adele Walsh, St Senan's was still in the reckoning but entering the final phase of the race Everard cut loose and headed for home in a canter. Foley made it a one, two, for KCH with Walsh finishing in bronze position. KCH, with Maria Murphy finishing strongly in 6th and Irene Henebry 8th , with a points total of 17 were first team and regained the cup which they last won in 2005. St Joseph's the 2006 winners were second with 42 points and Aughavillar last year's winners were third. Other placings were as follows:- 4 Cait Caulfield, St Senan's; 5 Mary Doolin, St Joseph's; 7 Eileen FitzPatrick, Aughavillar; 9 Verena Fenlon, St Joseph's; 10 Ann Doyle, Gowran; 11 Teresa Daly, KCH; 12 Ann Power, Aughavillar; 13 Bernadette Doolin, St Joseph's; 14 Mairead Power, Aughavillar; 15 Sally Forristal, St Joseph's; 16 Catherine Langton-Maher, St Joseph's; 17 Kate Millea, KCH; 18 Fiona Phelan, Aughavillar, 19 Tracy Malone, St Joseph's.
The men had five laps of the same course. Gowran, the host club, with twelve athletes had the largest contingent. From the off they put down a marker when their number one man, Tommy Evans, hit the front. Eoin Everard and Brian Maher, both KCH, were on his heels. By the half-way stage Maher and Everard had moved ahead of Evans and it seemed that the city club were on course to retain the senior shield. These three were well ahead of the field which by now was strung out right around the course. Maher, about whom there had been doubts concerning his fitness prior to the race, now seemed to gain new vigour. By the final lap he had opened up a considerable gap on club-mate Everard. But behind these two there was an interesting situation developing. Evans, while he had dropped back was still well placed for individual bronze. Gowran's new acquisition, Paul Deegan, had moved into 4th place and next in line two more Gowran men, Niall Sheehan and new signing, Kevin Fenlon were battling for 5th and 6th. Sheehan proved the faster on the run in leaving the Gowran club with an ideal set of team placings 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. An unassailable total of 17 points. Unassailable that is from the point of view of rivals, KCH. With Maher at number 1, Everard at 2, Paul Cody at 8, Toss Hayes at 9 and Mick Dore at 10 for good measure, the city club were on 20 points. A seven points improvement on 2008, but only sufficient for the silver medals because Gowran came home with a nine points improvement. Veteran athletes, Sean Caulfield, St Senan's and Lar Lacey and Peter Duggan, St Joseph's mixed it well with the younger runners. Their respective placings were 7th, 11th and 12th. The other places were as follows:- 13 Colin Butler, St Senan's; 14 Eddie Moloney, KCH; 15 Patrick Bookle, 16 Michael Power, both St Joseph's; 17 Neil Lyons, Gowran; 18 David Larkin, St Joseph's; 19 David McPherson, KCH; 20 Muiris Bric, Gowran; 21 Henry Langton, St Joseph's; 22 Denis Cormack, Gowran; 23 John Paul Comerford, Gowran; 24 Rocky Mernagh, St Joseph's; 25 Marty Kelly, 26 Toddy Farrell, 27 Larry McGrath and 28 Fergal Foley all Gowran.
Post race refreshments were provided by host club, Gowran, in Loughlin's Lounge, Gowran. Following the medal and trophy presentations by County Board Chairman, Denis Cormack, the annual county board draw was held. Prize winners were asa follows:- Hamper - May and Jimmy Brennan, Cloghala; DVD Player- David O'Keeffe, Thomastown; €100 – Robert Terry, Market Cross, Kilkenny; Fruit Hamper – Yvonne O'Neill, Aughavillar; Bottle of Brandy- Rory Sheeran, The Ridge, Coon; Bottle of Whiskey – Dan Silk Hugginstown; Tin of Biscuits – Deirdre McGrath, Dukesmeadows; Box of Chocolates – Catriona Twomey, Kilkenny.
Dec18 Christmas Break at Fit4Life
Thursday night was party night at the Kilkenny Fit4Life Club. The occasion was the presentation of prizes at the conclusion of another successful season at the club. There were many frosty nights and sometimes extremely sodden underfoot conditions over the last four months. Full credit to those who persevered at the training. Forty-one of the forty-three participants showed improved performances since September. New friendships were formed and training partnerships established. Over mince pies, sweet cake, fruit and coffee there was discussion on the possibility of taking parting some local running events. There was even talk of preparing for the Dublin Mini Marathon. The question of the re-opening of the athletic track in ScanlonPark was also on the agenda. There were suggestions that the track might not be ready by mid-January as was previously understood. Sean Lynch, PRO Kilkenny City Harriers, who presented the medals and prizes, undertook to contact the manager of The Watershed to ascertain the situation. When the position is clarified the arrangements for the next session will be communicated.
Prizes were presented as follows:-
Point Scorers – 1st Mary Broderick, 23 points; 2nd Catherine Hyland, 27 points; 3rd Breda Butler, 31 points.
Fastest over 3K Course:- Men – David McPherson, 9mins 11 seconds; Ladies – Irene Henebry, 10 minutes 26 seconds.

Dec 7 Freeze up in Cavan
Heavy overnight frost meant many of our athletes took the wise precaution of not travelling to Ballyhaise for the All Irelands. The few who did, Jack Manning, Cliodhna Manning, Kate Crotty and Richie Leahy, ran well.

Times have improved. That was the verdict after the second round of "Timing" in James's Park on Thursday night. The training put in over the previous three weeks was evident as eighty-two percent of participants showed improved performances. Some improvements were of the order of six or ten seconds while a few knocked off minutes. It took walkers Noreen Brannigan, Mary Oakes and Siobhan Rhatigan less than nineteen minutes to complete the course. The runners started this run on a time stagger based on times achieved in the October run. First home was Ann Walsh in 12 minutes 28 seconds. She was followed in by Siobhan Lawlor and Mary Broderick. However the fastest time of the night, 10 minutes 58 seconds, was recorded by Barbara Rossiter. There were impressive runs by Irene Henebry, Des Doyle, Marie Gough and David McPherson all of whom got home under twelve minutes. The next timing is scheduled for Thursday 27th Nov when undoubtedly further improvements will be recorded. Training continues on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7.00pm in James's Park and newcomers, be they walkers, joggers or runners are welcome to join up.
31st Niamh Has another First
Paul Cody finished in bronze position in the County 10 mile Road Championship (55.31) Mike Hyland (5th), Eamon Marnell (6th) and an ever improving Davy Hogan (8th).

Willie McTiernan placed 11th and newcomer Stweven dermody was 12th.
Niamh Richardson was queen of the ladies in the 5 miler.. Niamh went away from the start and cruised to victory. CatherineGutherie 4th and Teresa Daly 5th . One more runner would have given the team first team medals.

Congratulations to Sinead McDonough, 7th, and Catriona Twomey 8th in the national combined events finals in Santry today.
Aug 2 Celtic Games, Grangemouth, Scotland
It was first, first and first for Aoife Hickey and Mary Kate Lanigan at the Celtic Games in Grangemouth, Scotland on Saturday. Mary Kate won the Under 18 High Jump clearing the bar at 1.65m at her first attempt. Having the competition won with 1.65 she proceeded to try for 1.70m and came very close to clearing that height. Aoife had double gold, in Hammer and Shot Putt. In the Hammer she had two throws in excess of 50 meters, winning with 50.66. She also put in a top class performance in the Shot. One huge throw, measured at 13.20m would have been a PB but unfortunately it was fouled. Her next best throw of 12.48 won her the gold. Winning gold in this competition was a great way to finish up what has been a very good track season for both girls.
July 19/20 Brilliant Athletes at National Seniors
Eileen O'Keeffe was the first athlete on the podium on Saturday after a heart-warming display in the Hammer. Her first four throws were in excess of the 70 meter mark, her winning throw being 72.75 meters. Then about one hour later she took the gold in the Discus event with a PB throw of 46.44m, an event which according to herself, she does "for fun". Eileen will have another warm-up competition against some world class throwers at the Morton Memorial Meeting in Santry Stadium on Friday night. Aoife Hickey, also paid two visits to the podium: A silver in the Shot Putt with 12.95m and bronze in the Hammer with 50.49m. All of Aoife's throws were close to her best in both events. Such consistent throwing at his level from a juvenile athlete augers well for the future. Another juvenile who hit the top spot was Ciara Everard who ran a perfect 800m to take the gold in 2.13.35. Ciara led from the start and when her rivals closed on her with 200 to go she had the courage and the pace to take them on and beat them to the line. A marvellous result. Juraj Kubis put in a great performance in the men's javelin. Second in 2007 he made no mistake this time with consistent sixty meter throws he took first place with 61.41 meters.
On the track there were some fine battles. Eoin Everard fought one of these in the men's 800m final. Eoin won his heat on Saturday in the second-fastest time of 1.54.43. In the final the battle for 1st, 2nd and 3rd was between himself, Thomas Chamney ( heat time 1.53.54) and David Campbell (heat time 1.54.78). It was a tough battle with the latter two coming past Everard as they came down the finishing straight. Eoin finished with a bronze medal in 1m.52.01secs. Chamney was rewarded for his efforts with selection for Beijing. Eoin is close. Well done. Another hard fought battle which also resulted in bronze was that by Brian Maher in the 5000m. Brian tucked in at the back of the pack for the first few laps. As a leading group of six broke away he moved through the field. By the time he joined the front group the ultimate winner, Mark Christie, and Belfast man Stephen Scullion had got well away from the others. Maher pressed on and as Scullion faded Maher made his move for second. The major battle was now on to hold the faster finishers Aidan Bailey, Clonliffe, and Emet Dunleavy, Sligo. He succeeded in holding Dunleavy and finished in third in 14mins 48.94 seconds.
All in all this was a marvellous championship by our athletes. Those who didn't make the medals still turned in good quality runs. Nathan O'Brien in the 200m.(23.27). Killian Everard was fifth in his 200m heat in 23.96secs; Jonathan Holmes came close to qualifying for the 100m final when he finished fourth in his heat in 11.01 seconds. Mick Dore had a double engagement in the 800m and in the 1500m where he once again achieved a personal best. Thomas Hayes also set a PB when he finished the 3000m in 9m 43.60secs.
As is customary on national final day the AAI honour winners from the past. This years honours roll based on 1978 winners included Long and Triple Jumper, Mick O'Flynn and Shot and Discus Thrower, Marita Walton. It is interesting to note that Marita still holds the national Shot Putt record which stands at 16.99 meters set in 1983.
July 13 AAI Juvenile T&F
Theresa Conlon, landed the gold in the under 17 Hammer event. All of her six throws were PB's leaving her on a high at the end of a great season with a PB of 40.80m in her favourite event. Theresa also took part in the Shot Putt where she again set a new PB of 10.32m which put her in 5th position. Mary Kate Lanigan and Aoife Hickey, also collected some silverware. Mary Kate won the under 17 High Jump clearing 1.65m. Aoife won silver in the under 18 Shot Putt with a throw of 12.72m.
Day 3 results:-
Under 14 Nicholas Dunphy, 6th-Walk(14.21.51).
Under 17 Aoife Corcoran (K), 7th-Triple jump (9.78); Naomi niChleirigh (K), 12th –Triple jump (8.17); Theresa Conlon (K), 1st –Hammer (40.80); 5th –Shot Putt (10.32); Mary Kate Lanigan (K), 1st-High Jump (1.65); 4th -200m (26.29).

Bronze in Leinster Relays
It was a case of Bronze for both boys and girls under 11 teams at the Leinster Inter-county Relays at the Charlesland track in Greystones, Co Wicklow last week-end. Rachel Barron from Thomastown athletic club and three girls, Ciara Lawlor, Niamh McMullan and Aisling McDonough, from Kilkenny City Harriers made up the girls 4x100 team. Powerful running by Niamh on the third leg brought them from 5th to 3rd with Aisling holding that position at the finish. The boys race followed a similar pattern. This time there were three from the Aughavillar club, Dara Keane, Morgan Thomas and Luke FitzPatrick, and one, Jack Manning, from Kilkenny City Harriers.

Her remaining throws were somewhat shorter but her worst distance of 68.33 was still of top international quality. Clubmate, Aoife Hickey, opened her account with 45.37m and finished with 49.27m. This was an improvement by this young athlete of more than ten meters on last year's performance. So Aoife took second place and then Teresa Conlon, competing at senior level for the first time, won bronze making it first, second and third for the city club. Teresa's throwing, like the other two was very consistent. She opened with 28.90m and showed improvement with each throw and ended the competition with 32.50m. Teresa subsequently competed in the Shot Putt where she again won bronze. Eileen O'Keeffe completed a hat trick of gold at the Championships. As well as the Hammer she also came first in Discus and Weight for Distance. Juraj Kubis, Kilkenny City Harriers, won gold in the Senior javelin.

Undergraduates from a Graduate Student Perspective
We know we're weird. Graduate school is one time in life that it is acceptable, almost expected, that one is weird. Guess what? So are undergraduates. Actually, as a subspecies, work-study students are the least weird of the undergraduates. Your work-study position is usually a well-defined job, and you are task-oriented in the way jobs require; graduate students tend to skip from one thing to another, and go from completely unfocused to really, really focused in the blink of an eye.
As a graduate student, I have hired and worked with many work-study students. Some have been awful (not invited back the next semester), some have been good, and some have been excellent. We graduate students depend on work-study students a great deal more than you may realize. You are an extremely valuable resource.
But that makes it sound as if you are robots, carrying out routine tasks. We realize that you are working in the lab for experience, and we try to give it to you. One approach is to give you a great deal of experience on one task. Another approach is to gradually increase the responsibilities of work-study students as your unique skills become apparent. One particular student of mine comes to mind. He knew how to work with computers, pretty much better than I did, and what he didn't know, he could figure out. He's now running our ERP lab.
The willingness to ask questions and to learn new things are two of the best skills to have. You come into the lab with no experience – after all, gaining experience is what you're there for. Over time, you learn how to run subjects, analyze data, work with the computers, etc. The way to learn is through interactions with graduate students. We remember how we felt when we were undergraduates. We are there to answer questions, explain tasks, answer questions, learn new tasks along with you, and answer the same questions again, until you, and we, are satisfied that you know what you're doing. We try to be less scary than faculty. We may even share our pizza with you.
My best suggestion to work study students is this: use graduate students as a resource of your own. Graduate students' behavior can be shaped. Ask us questions – lots of them. Ask us about the projects you are doing in our lab, other projects in the lab, other projects that interest you. Ask us about grad school, good classes to take, what we know about the professors and graduate students that teach them. Be interested in what you are doing. That brings out graduate students' innate need to explain. And besides, if you are not interested in what you are doing, you have the wrong work-study job. Try to learn as many things as your lab has to offer. Ask us to introduce you to faculty members, so they know your face and your name. Use us as the link between yourself and the faculty member of the lab in which you work, so that your letter of reference is detailed and rich in information about you and your abilities.
Working in a lab as an undergraduate is a situation that benefits you and the graduate students in so many ways. I need to go thank all the work-study students that were willing to put out the effort to gain experience in my lab. And yes, no matter how much you shape our behavior, we'll still be weird.
