Munster GAA SHC Quarter Final – Tipperary 2-20 Limerick 1-19
Tipperary defeated Limerick by 2-20 to 1-19 in the Quarter Final of the Munster GAA Senior Hurling Championship on Sunday at Semple Stadium, Thurles.
Tipperary 2-20 Limerick 1-19
Report from the RTE.ie web site
Munster champions Tipperary staged a remarkable comeback to break Limerick hearts, 2-20 to 1-19, in a thriller at Semple Stadium. Limerick seemed set for a shock win when they built on a 1-9 to 1-8 interval lead by hitting six points without reply against the wind in the opening 13 minutes of the seconds-half. But the All-Ireland finalists never panicked and Tipp clawed their way back into contention and hit the front seven minutes from time when Brian O'Meara flicked home a goal. Tipp powered on from there to set up a Munster semi-final with Cork.
Limerick opened at a blistering pace with teenage debutant Shane Dowling leading the way as he landed four points, two of them from play, in the opening ten minutes. Tipperary captain Paul Curran had opted to play against the wind and the Limerick fans in the crowd of 22,068 must have been given great hope by their impressive start, with only Tipp's only response being a long-range effort from Thomas Stapleton. But Tipperary refused to panic, even when Eoin Kelly missed a couple of frees, and Pa Bourke and the hard-working Brian O'Meara reduced the deficit.
Then John O'Brien found O'Meara in space and rather than pick off a point the full-forward found the unmarked Bourke who drove low into the bottom left corner to level the match at 1-03 to 0-06, after Dowling and Graeme Mulcahy had increased Limerick's lead. Conor Allis and Noel McGrath exchanged points before Kevin Downes restored Limerick's lead after 23 minutes. A minute later Mulcahy, having been denied by Brendan Cummins, blasted to the net to put Limerick 1-08 to 1-04 in front.
The response from Tipp against the wind was good with O'Meara getting his second point as they hit four on the spin as Bourke, Kelly and McGrath found the range, although Limerick led 1-09 to 1-08 at the break when Sean Tobin pointed in stoppage time. Tipp were clearly rattled as Kevin Downes, Dowling, David Breen, Mulcahy, Sean Tobin and Conor Allis all found the range to lead by 1-15 to 1-08 after 48 minutes. But Pa Bourke settled them with a couple of points and they got the margin down to two before O'Meara struck for the decisive goal to break Limerick hearts in a gripping contest.
Tipperary scorers: P Bourke 1-7 (0-4f, 0-1 65), B O'Meara 1-2, N McGrath 0-3, S Callinan 0-2 (0-1 free), E Kelly 0-1f, T Stapleton 0-1, J O'Brien 0-1, S Bourke 0-1, S McGrath 0-1, C O'Brien 0-1.

Tipperary have just about enough in reserve
SEÁN MORAN at Semple Stadium for the Irish Times newspaper
Tipperary 2-20 Limerick 1-19: QUALIFIERS notwithstanding, yesterday must have been a time of great stress for Tipperary connections. Trailing by seven points heading into the last quarter, the GAA Munster hurling champions were staring down the barrel of the biggest surprise in the province for a while.
Their misfiring team, groomed for a few years as the only serious contenders in the world of Kilkenny and the team that interrupted the gilded sequence of the All-Ireland champions two years ago, were on the verge of elimination by a wholehearted, young Limerick side. Somehow, Tipp found a response and in the final 15 minutes doubled their score from 1-10 to 2-20, sufficient to take them past and keep them in front of the by now faltering challenge.
There will, by the time postmortems have been concluded, be something for everyone in this provincial quarter-final. Limerick were under pressure after a disappointing but hamstrung league campaign had failed to deliver promotion, whereas Tipp had not impressed in Division One A. They proceeded to come out sluggishly on to what should have been a perfect afternoon – Semple Stadium's broad expanses glistening in the hot summer sun. But it was the outsiders that struck the early tempo and Tipperary struggled.
By the time the match headed into its endgame from the 55th minute, Declan Ryan had thrown in a full complement of replacements and, as acknowledged by both sides, the quality of the Tipp bench made a sufficient impact to shift the match on to a different track. Balancing the feeling of satisfaction for Ryan and his management must have been the underperforming display of the selected 15.
They took a long time to get settled, as both teams shuffled their starting line-ups around with Tipp's forward zipping in and out of various positions and it was Limerick, chiefly through the efforts of Shane Dowling, who had a most impressive debut, who pushed into early command of the match. Their movement was good and their shooting economical – two wides in each half, one of which wasn't an attempt at a score – but the home side played into their hands with sloppy defending and some poor clearances.
Dowling capitalised with the first five of Limerick's points, two from play, to the two that Tipp could muster. Despite all of this adversity, the favourites were hanging on and in the 18th minute closed the three-point gap when Brian O'Meara, the only starting forward to impress consistently and who had just hit a nice point, laid off neatly to Pa Bourke in support and his low shot across Nicky Quaid arrowed into the bottom corner of the net.
Tipperary's forwards were still far from clicking and Eoin Kelly was wide with a couple of shots and Noel McGrath's input was intermittent, but they managed to stay in touch after Graeme Mulcahy had been gifted a second chance – after Brendan Cummins had saved his first shot, but the defence failed to clear – to put Limerick 1-8 to 1-4 ahead.
At the other end, Limerick's defence were enthusiastically throwing themselves around at every assault – one passage of play just after the half-hour featuring four separate blocks on Tipp attackers. Again, though, Limerick didn't pull away and the champions presumably felt happy to be just a point behind, 1-8 to 1-9, at the break.
Nonetheless, the third quarter was the stuff of nightmares for Tipperary. Far from exploiting their proximity to the challengers they watched as six unanswered points rained over from all points, as Kevin Downes, Dowling, David Breen, Mulcahy and Seán Tobin converted chances with a crisp aplomb. Eoin Kelly was replaced – his last action to be fouled a couple of times without reward on a run through the middle – and significantly Patrick Maher made his reappearance, the first since last year's All-Ireland final.
It nearly got worse for Tipperary in the 50th minute when trailing, 1-9 to 1-15, they watched as Kevin Downes took possession immediately after Limerick had conceded the first score of the second half and flicked the ball into David Breen but, with a goal at his mercy, the wing forward fumbled and Paul Curran cleared. The match turned as Patrick Maher began to make a nuisance of himself and Limerick mysteriously withdrew Downes, allowing Conor O'Mahony to get into his stride and mop up a succession of dropping ball.
Referee Barry Kelly emerged from his reluctant period with the whistle and began to call fouls and Tipp began to cut the deficit – hitting six points to one in the 10 minutes until the 65th when the vital breach was made. Patrick Maher was instrumental but could have been penalised for charging; instead O'Meara came in behind the ruck and clipped the ball into the net to put Tipp ahead at 2-15 to 1-17. From then on, they outscored Limerick by 0-5 to 0-2 and Tipperary had effected their escape. Cork are next up and are unlikely to be as accommodating, but the outing will stand to the winners.

Referee: Barry Kelly (Westmeath).
BEING AS he is, unflappable, Declan Ryan's demeanour bore little witness to the fact that he had been very tight margins from having to conduct an altogether more disagreeable post-match media scrum. Instead, he was able to reflect on a late deliverance, chiefly the work of his extensive list of replacements. "The substitutions we made worked reasonably well, all the lads that came on made a huge contribution, they added a lot of energy to the game. It was very warm out there and it was great they had the impact they did," said Ryan.
Although there were improvements all over the pitch – replacement corner back Conor O'Brien even got up for a point and Shane McGrath energised a static centrefield – it was the first appearance of the season by Patrick 'Bonner' Maher that really got the crowd buzzing. "Patrick has great energy about him," said Ryan, "Shane (McGrath) has been going very well in training in the last three weeks. Im just delighted with what they added when they came on."
Captain Paul Curran was just relieved. "It was looking dodgy because you could hear the Limerick supporters in full voice and I suppose we just dug deep. There were seven points in it at one stage and it ended up four so we were lucky." Limerick manager John Allen was torn between satisfaction with his young side's storming attempt at a major upset and regret at what, trimmings aside, was a championship defeat. "Well you see I thought we were going to win the game and I went to the bookies yesterday to prove it. Our training in the past six weeks had been really good. We had a game last Friday night, a green versus white we'll call it, where a number of altercations took place which kind of was really the way our training had gone all along. "There was a real intensity in training. The team on Wednesday night wasn't a foregone conclusion. There were players who certainly weren't sure that they were going to get on the team. I'm extremely proud of the team. They were heroic really, but this game is about winning. "This game will bring us on, but championship games are all about winning. Today's performance is great for confidence – I'm sure the Limerick public will have been impressed so yes, it will bring us on."
Premier making the right moves
Tipperary 2-20 Limerick 1-19
By Diarmuid O'Flynn for the Irish Examiner newspaper
What a close call for champions Tipperary in this first-round Munster senior hurling championship clash in baking heat in Thurles yesterday. But what a heroic performance by a precocious Limerick side also. With only 15 minutes remaining the youngsters in green were seven points ahead (1-16 to 1-9), their hosts having been held to just a point in the second-half, and a shock of major proportions looked on the cards. And Limerick were full value for that seven-point lead, had hit the ground with an intensity that seemed to catch Tipperary completely off guard but more importantly, they had maintained that intensity right through those 55 minutes.
Their defence was hurling superbly, hooking/blocking/harassing the Tipperary attack to complete distraction, tigerish corner-backs Stephen Walsh and Tom Condon typifying the visiting effort. Midfielders James Ryan and Paul Browne were more than holding their own, while up front teenage championship debutant Shane Dowling was playing like a veteran, aided and abetted by David Breen and Conor Allis alongside him in the half-forward line, the flying trio of Graeme Mulcahy, Kevin Downes and Seanie Tobin doing damage inside.
It was a magnificent team effort from Limerick and the champions were on the ropes — one big punch and it was all over. However Tipperary are champions for a reason with a deep well of self belief and strength developed over the last four years during which time they've gone toe-to-toe with Kilkenny. In those final 15 minutes that talent finally surfaced and when it did, a tiring Limerick had no answer.
Onto the pitch came Patrick 'Bonner' Maher, Conor O'Brien, Seamus Callanan and Shane Bourke, to join Shane McGrath who had been brought on in the first half. Oh, what an impact those five had on the game in those final minutes, what an impact made by Bonner Maher especially. He's been missing for a while due to injury, and though it took him a while to get to the pace of the game, when he did he was like a fox among the hens, creating panic every time he was on the ball.
Maher inspired the Tipperary comeback. He didn't score but then that isn't really his forte; he drew two fouls for pointed frees and gave a scoring pass to start Tipperary on a 1-11 to 0-3 run in that final quarter, a run that saw them turn a seven-point deficit to a four-point win.
Even the goal — Bonner it was who won possession and ran straight at Nicky Quaid (did very well overall, the Limerick keeper), drew a crowd of defenders, dropped the ball to the sod (after what seemed an age!), to be pounced on by Brian O'Meara. Delight at the end then for the huge Tipperary contingent in the 22,068 attendance, heartbreak for Limerick. And it is heartbreak; forget the patronising, the consolation talk about great effort — this is a game Limerick should have won.
Right from the start they were in control. After 17 minutes they led by three (0-6 to 0-3, the deadly Dowling with five of those points). They were then caught by a sucker-punch, John O'Brien and Brian O'Meara (lovely stick pass) combining to set up Pa Bourke for Tipperary's first goal — didn't matter. Back they came again and a goal of their own, rocketed home by Graeme Mulcahy moments after he had been denied by a miracle point-blank Brendan Cummins save, had them back in charge in the 26th minute, four in front (1-8 to 1-4).
Tipp pulled it back to one by the break (featuring a superb O'Meara point — Richie McCarthy did as good a job as any one man could have managed on the Tipp giant), 1-9 to 1-8, but with the breeze now going to favour Limerick, things were looking rosy for the visitors. Things were looking even rosier 20 minutes after the restart. Six points to start the new half, one each from all six forwards and the game seemed gone from Tipperary. Then came the cavalry and that late charge.
Great showing from Limerick but it must also be said — while Tipperary did so much right on the sideline, Limerick's substitutions and switches were somewhat baffling, taking off guys who were still full of running (Tobin particularly), bringing out a man who was causing problems inside (Mulcahy), leaving on a guy who had run himself to a standstill (Dowling). If they learn from this, however, on and off the pitch, they will be a force yet this year. Either way they'll be a force in a year or two.
Scorers for Tipperary: P Bourke 1-7 (4fs, 1 65), B O'Meara 1-2, N McGrath 0-3, S Callanan 0-2 (1f), T Stapleton, E Kelly (f), J O'Brien, S Bourke, S McGrath, C O'Brien, 0-1 each.

Useful Information
Limerick have won 1 of the last 16 Munster Senior Hurling Championship matches they have played, an extra-time victory over Tipperary in the 2007 Munster Semi-Final 2nd replay at the Gaelic Grounds. During that period, Limerick have drawn 5 times. Limerick's last Championship victory away from Pairc na nGael came in 2001 with victories over Cork and Waterford at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.
Tipperary have won 7 of their last 8 matches in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship dating back to 2008, winning 3 of the 4 Munster titles on offer in that period. Their only defeat came at the hands of Cork in May 2010, a 3-15 to 0-14 defeat at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.
Tipperary and Limerick have met in the Championship on 63 occasions with Tipperary winning 32, Limerick 21 and there have been 10 draws. Seven of those draws have come since 1962 and in each of the last 5 decades, the counties have drawn at least 1 Championship encounter. This is their first Championship meeting this decade so they have another 8 seasons to keep trend of drawing games alive. In 5 of the last 6 decades, Tipperary have secured more victories than Limerick, the exception being the 1970s when Tipperary were in the midst of a famine period. See below the record by decade of the Tipp v Limerick Championship encounters –
2000s (Tipperary 5, Drawn 3, Limerick 1)
1990s (Tipperary 3, Drawn 1, Limerick 2)
1980s (Tipperary 2, Drawn 1, Limerick 1)
1970s (Tipperary 1, Drawn 1, Limerick 3)

In Division 1A of the 2012 Allianz Hurling League, Tipperary racked up the second highest total of scores, an aggregate of 119 points (3 goals and 110 points). On the flip side, Tipperary conceded the most scores, an aggregate of 115 points followed by the concession of 1-25 in the semi-final defeat by Cork. Waterford recorded the lowest number of scores, an aggregate of 91 points. Clare conceded just 84 points on aggregate in their 5 games in Division 1B, the lowest total conceded by any of the 12 Division 1 teams.
Over the last 3 seasons, Semple Stadium Thurles has played host to 9 of the 14 Munster Senior Hurling Championship matches played. Pairc Ui Chaoimh hosted 3 matches while Pairc na nGael in Limerick hosted 2 games.
The 2011 Munster Senior Hurling Championship saw an increase in the number of scores per game for the first time in 4 years. The average number of scores per match in 2011 was 43, a significant increase of 9 scores per match on the 2010 Munster Senior Hurling Championship. The highest scoring game yielded 48 scores, the first round victory of Tipperary over Cork by 3-22 to 0-23.
Since 1966, 14 teams have won the Hurling League Division 1 Final by 8+ points. Strangely, none went on to win the All-Ireland later that summer. Similarly dating back to 1991, of the last 7 teams to win the Munster Senior Hurling Final by 8 or more points, only one of them have won the All-Ireland two months later – Clare in 1995 following their 1-17 to 0-11 Munster Final victory over Limerick.
Tipperary's Eoin Kelly was the top scorer in the 2011 Munster Senior Hurling Championship, scoring 4-16 (0-10 from frees) in 3 matches. Lar Corbett (Tipperary) was 2nd with 6 goals and 6 points from play including 4-4 in the Munster Final v Waterford. Pauric Mahony (Waterford) was third on the scoring charts with 0-20 (0-16 from frees) in two matches. Seamus Callanan (Tipperary) scored 2-10 from play to finish fourth.
Limerick and Tipperary have both lost 26 Munster Senior Hurling Finals. Cork have lost 29.

Tipperary V Limerick: Previous Championship Meetings
Tipperary and Limerick have met on 63 previous occasions in the Senior Hurling Championship. All but two of those meetings – the 2009 All Ireland Semi final at Croke Park and the 2004 Qualifier at the Gaelic Grounds – were Munster Championship fixtures.
Tipperary leads the way on 32 wins to Limerick's 21, with 10 games drawn. Tipperary also received a walk over in the Munster semi final of 1899 and Limerick had a similar experience in 1902.
Tipp won 9 of their 32 successes by a goal or less while Limerick won 7 of their 21 by a goal or less.
The 2007 saga is one of the highlight's of Tipp v Limerick history – Limerick eventually won by three points, 0-22 to 2-13, after three games and two periods of extra time. It was the first time since 1926 that a Munster Senior Hurling championship game had taken three games to produce a winner

Championship Debutants under Declan Ryan
Declan Ryan gave 4 players championship debuts in 2011 – Shane Bourke v Waterford, John Coghlan v Clare, John O'Keeffe v Cork and John O'Neill v Dublin.
Youngest on the Panel
Noel McGrath for the first time since he joined the Tipp SH panel in 2009 is no longer the youngest player on the panel – that honour now falls to Sean Curran of Mullinahone who was born on September 15th 1991 compared with McGrath's birth date of December 17th 1990.
The Older Brigade
Now in his 20th season on the Tipp SH panel, goalkeeper Brendan Cummins is comfortably the oldest player on the panel at 37. The second oldest is Lar Corbett who was 31 on March 16th and he narrowly holds this position ahead of the squad's other goalkeeper, Darren Gleeson who was 31 on March 19th. The other over 30s on the panel are Shane Maher, Paul Curran, John O'Brien and Eoin Kelly.
Family Affairs
There are two sets of brothers on the Tipp panel – Paul and Sean Curran of Mullinahone and Shane and Donagh Maher of Burgess. Pa Bourke is a first cousin of Johnny Ryan and they are both second cousins of Padraic Maher. Gearoid Ryan and Adrian Ryan are first cousins.
Limerick Management Connections to Tipperary
Limerick hurling selector, John Kiely is a teacher at the Abbey CBS in Tipperary Town and Limerick trainer Donach O'Donnell was manager of the Nenagh CBS team which won this year's All Ireland Colleges A hurling final.
Eoin's Quest for a Green Flag against the Green and White
One of the surprising aspects of Eoin Kelly's Tipperary career since making his senior debut at Croke Park in 2000 is that he has only scored one goal against Limerick and that was in their most recent meeting in the 2009 All Ireland semi-final. However, in ten meetings between 2001 and 2009, he has recorded a total of 1-71 for a splendid average of 7.4 points per game.
Goals Against Limerick
Over their past 12 championship meetings Tipperary have scored a total of 22 goals against Limerick. They were scored by Lar Corbett (4), John Carroll(3); Darragh Egan, Seamus Butler and Ger "Redser" O'Grady (2 each); and Eoin Kelly, Pat Kerwick, Noel McGrath, Willie Ryan, Evan Sweeney, John Devane, Tommy Dunne, Declan Ryan and Michael Cleary (1 each).
Venues for Tipp v Limerick
The most popular venue for championship games between the counties has been Cork, with a total of thirty played between the old Athletic Grounds (23) and Pairc Ui Chaoimh (7). Thurles has hosted 13 games – the first on July 1st, 1923 ended in a 2-2 each draw and the most recent, on June 16th 2007, also ended in a draw and was still level after extra time!
Record Winning Margins
Tipperary's biggest win in championship hurling against Limerick was achieved on July 3rd 1960, when they won a first round game by 10-9 to 2-1, at the Cork Athletic Grounds.
Limerick's highest winning margin was claimed on June 22nd 1947 when they won a semi final clash at Cork Athletic Grounds by 6-8 to 2-3.
The most significant turnaround occurred in 1962 when the counties drew a semi final in Cork on July 1st and three weeks later Tipp won the replay by 5-13 to 2-4!
Goalless Games
While goals have been a feature of Tipp v Limerick clashes over the years, there were two occasions when neither team could raise a green flag. It first happened at Pairc Ui Chaoimh in their 1988 Semi Final meeting, which Tipp won by 0-15 to 0-8. The second occasion was at the same stage and venue in 1995, when Limerick just made it to the final by 0-16 to 0-15.
School Colleagues from Tipperary and Limerick
On April 13th 1997, Cistercian College, Roscrea, (Leinster Champions) lined out against St. Cuan's Castleblakeny, Galway (Connacht Champions) in the All Ireland Colleges 'B' Hurling semi final, at Nenagh. Their full back was Stephen Lucey from Croom in Limerick, while the goalkeeper was John O' Brien from Toomevara in Tipperary. The CCR team was captained by John's brother, Paddy, at centre forward, and his ten point contribution helped them to reach the decider on a 1-14 to 1-5 scoreline. The Connacht Tribune match report paid tribute to ''..an uncompromising Roscrea defence based around the prowess of Toomevara's John O' Brien and the power hurling of No. 3, Stephen Lucey, who gave an exhibition of full back play''.
Unfortunately, there wasn't a happy ending to the story, as CCR lost the final two weeks later at Nenagh to the Munster Champions, St. Clement's College, Limerick, whose line out included Stephen Lucey's future Limerick colleagues Dave Bulfin, Brian Begley and Conor Fitzgerald. The final score was 1-8 to 0-7.
Limerick Men Playing with Tipperary
Over the years there has been a tradition of players lining out with counties other than their own. In the modern era, Limerick have given three notable players to Tipperary.
On June 7th 1981, Mossie Carroll (Garryspillane / St Mary's, Clonmel) who had played for Limerick, in the 1980 All Ireland final loss to Galway, lined out at centre back for Tipperary in the Munster semi final against Limerick at Semple Stadium. In opposition was his brother Brian 'Bomber' Carroll, who played at midfield. Mossie scored a point from a free for Tipp while Brian scored a vital second half goal, as Limerick came back from an early second half deficit of 2-11 to 0-3 to earn a draw, with Joe McKenna's late point. John Grogan was top scorer for Tipp with 2-6 (0-5f) while Joe McKenna with 3-1 was Limerick's leading marksman. Limerick won the replay comfortably, in the Gaelic Grounds, two weeks later and this time the top scorers were Eamon Cregan on 1-5, (1-0 pen, 0-1f) and Seamus Bourke on 2-3 (0-2f). Mossie later served as a Limerick senior hurling selector.
The following year Brian Carroll lined out for Tipp at wing forward in the Munster championship against Cork, joining Mossie, who was again at centre back. Cork won by eight points and that was the last time the Carroll brothers wore the blue and gold in championship hurling.
Conor O'Donovan (Effin / Nenagh Éire Óg) played for Limerick in their losing Munster Minor finals of 1979 and 1980. On the latter occasion, he lined out at right half forward and was marked by Denis Finnerty (Eire Og Nenagh as it was then known) who soon became a club colleague. Conor played at midfield for the Tipp under 21s in their 1982 loss to Limerick, which brought the quest for a four in a row to an end. In 1983 he was at centre forward on the Tipp under 21 team, which won Munster but lost the All Ireland final to Galway. He subsequently represented Tipp at senior level and his versatility was well proven with stints at left half back (Open Draw Cup 1985), right full back (1988 NHL victory) and full back (1989 All Ireland success). Conor captained his club to victory, from full back, in the 1995 Tipp Senior Hurling championship.
Joe McKenna's Tipp connections
Joe McKenna, a native of Shinrone, Co. Offaly, who enjoyed many successful championship days for Limerick against Tipperary is the uncle of Owen and Darragh Maher from Roscrea, both of whom played Minor Hurling for Tipperary. Owen was involved with the 1988 team, while Darragh was with the 1989 edition. Owen was also a Tipp under 21 for two seasons, 1990 (Munster champions) and 1991. Owen and Darragh have another legendary uncle in Brendan Maher, who won six Co. SHC medals with Roscrea, between 1968 and 1980, along with the first ever All Ireland club title in 1971. Brendan now resides in New York where he remains involved in GAA affairs.
Next game
The winners of the Tipperary v Limerick game will play Cork in the Munster SH Championship semi-final on Sunday June 24th. The losers go to the qualifiers.

DA's Office Pushing for Reform in New Orleans Courts
Posted on Feb 14, 2011 in Courts, Local Issues
The Times-Picayune reported today that District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro's office has been working recently to improve procedures at New Orleans Criminal District Court.
Among other things, Mr. Cannizzaro has urged the 12 judges at the CDC to more than double the number of jury trials they intend to hear this year (up to 600). Mr. Cannizzaro's office and the public defender's office both agree that the new goals and procedures will improve the court's operations.
Furthermore, Mr. Cannizzaro's office is now taking issue with certain rulings issued by Criminal Court Judge Benedict Willard. According to the Times-Picayune, Judge Willard has either delayed cases (prompting intervention by the state Supreme Court) or repeatedly issued rulings which have had to be overturned by an appellate court.
This apparent new activism on the part of the DA's office represents a level of public dissatisfaction with the local court system which has not been voiced in a number of years.

Mickorod Renard: and our chracters are so similar in ways to how we are in sl too
Wol Euler smiles.
Mickorod Renard: yes,,a special bond
Storm Nordwind: (Premium bond - comment for UK PaBers only)
Mickorod Renard: yea,,
Agatha Macbeth: groans
Liza Deischer: hi Zen
Wol Euler was thinking of Brook Bond
Mickorod Renard: Hi Zen
Wol Euler: hello zen
Agatha Macbeth: Or James?
Agatha Macbeth: Hi Zen
Eos Amaterasu: maybe treacle
Zen Arado: Hi All
Mickorod Renard: I liked the way we slowly edged into the retreat
Mickorod Renard: as we arived in Malta on diferent days etc
Bertram Jacobus: hy zen :-)
Mickorod Renard: so the apprehension rose gradually
Mickorod Renard: then,,finally the retreat started
Mickorod Renard: I for one was worried we may have issues over the hotels or the farmhouse
Mickorod Renard: and first impressions wre wor
Mickorod Renard: rying
Mickorod Renard: pc lag
Mickorod Renard: sorry
Mickorod Renard: but then we made ourselves comfortable
Mickorod Renard: and most importantly,,the focus
Mickorod Renard: on each other,,and the retreat
Mickorod Renard: all for one and one for all
Mickorod Renard: also, I think of it as a nice meal
Bertram Jacobus: helllo sophia, lia and zon (!) ... :-)
Wol Euler: hello lia, sophia, zon
Mickorod Renard: lots of different courses
Lia Rikugun: hello sorry i am late..
Agatha Macbeth: Hi all
Yakuzza Lethecus: hi lia
Liza Deischer: hello sophia, lia and zon
Pema Pera: So now we have 8 Malta retreaters here, of the 10: Lia, Bert, Arabella, Mick, Wol, Yakuzza, Eos, and me
Mickorod Renard: Hi Lia. sophia and Zon, and sophia p
Zen Arado: hello sophia, lia and zon
Tarmel Udimo: hi new comers
Eos Amaterasu: Plus Tarmel is a CA retreatant
Storm Nordwind: And two people froma previous retreat too
Eos Amaterasu: :-)
Mickorod Renard: yes, a good meal,with diferent courrses,,diferent tastes to flavour
Wol Euler: :)
Mickorod Renard: there was no rushing into anything either
Tarmel Udimo: nods to Eos and storm
Mickorod Renard: and the joy of being able to take it slow,,and question more in depth about certain processes
Lia Rikugun: wow so many people!
Mickorod Renard: its amazing
Tarmel Udimo: like old times:)
Fael Illyar: Hi Everyone :)
Mickorod Renard: I liked the getting bedded in before the silent day
Tarmel Udimo: hi
Agatha Macbeth: Pardon Mick?
Mickorod Renard: cos that gave us a chance to think deeper during the silent day
Mickorod Renard: he he
Agatha Macbeth: Sorry, read that as 'getting bedded' :)
Mickorod Renard: naughty
Agatha Macbeth: (Wishful thinking as usual)
Tarmel Udimo: :)
Wol Euler chortles
Mickorod Renard: well, you could have come
Pema Pera was wondering too, Agatha . . .
Mickorod Renard: oops,,wrong word again
Agatha Macbeth: In a manner of speaking....
Eos Amaterasu: :-)
Wol Euler coughs
Agatha Macbeth: whistles
arabella Ella: :)
Agatha Macbeth: Anyway Mick, you were saying......
arabella Ella: we did that though didnt we in the afternoon of the silent day?
Eos Amaterasu: :-)++
Mickorod Renard: and then after the silent day,,we were so full of questions
Wol Euler: almost all of us, yes
Archmage Atlantis: Ok. if you peeps are all sexed up......well
Agatha Macbeth: raises her hand. What was the 'Silent Day' please?
arabella Ella: sorry Arch ... no one mentioned the 'S' word
arabella Ella: except for Silent
Mickorod Renard: well, the afternoon of the silent day resulted in many people dozing off
Agatha Macbeth: Oh
Agatha Macbeth: No snoring then?
Mickorod Renard: we became so relaxed I think
Mickorod Renard: some snoring
Zen Arado: silent meditation?
Mickorod Renard: grunts and stuff
Wol Euler nods to zen
Agatha Macbeth: 'Grunts and stuff'?
Mickorod Renard: yea,,well there was small lapses in the silent bit
Agatha Macbeth: ????
Mickorod Renard: Agatha,,you must make the next retreat
Eos Amaterasu: "functional" communication was okiay
Tarmel Udimo: just reconnecting with Being at a different level:)
Mickorod Renard: its fun
Agatha Macbeth: So I can do grunts and stuff eh?
arabella Ella: there were times when it was absolutely necessary to communicate
Mickorod Renard: sure
Storm Nordwind: As in "you're standing on my foot"?
Agatha Macbeth: Hmmm
arabella Ella: yes to communicate with grunts and stuff
Mickorod Renard: it must have been so much less complicated before language was invented
Agatha Macbeth: Yeah, they just bashed each other with rocks
Mickorod Renard: well,,there are lots of rocks on malta
Eos Amaterasu: it was a flintstone era place in some ways :-)
Agatha Macbeth: Well there you go....
Agatha Macbeth: Fred?
Mickorod Renard: but we refrained from comunicating with rocks
Eos Amaterasu: or shells
arabella Ella: Malta has often been known to be a 'rock'
Agatha Macbeth: Adams Rubble would have felt at home then :)
Tarmel Udimo: interesting - most retreats are silent so I wander about the impact of just one day?
Mickorod Renard: but I think for me,,it took several days to chill out
Archmage Atlantis: Cat climbs over chest,,,communicates with no words
Agatha Macbeth: Right Arch
Mickorod Renard: many of us must have very hectic lives during regular weeks
Mickorod Renard: and to achieve silence in the mind,,well to a point, must take adjustment
Tarmel Udimo: it takes longer than 24hrs:)
Mickorod Renard: I feel that the weeks retreat was superb for me and for a first time
Wol Euler: good!
Agatha Macbeth: Result!
Mickorod Renard: but I would look forward to a longer retreat now
Wol Euler: very good :)
Agatha Macbeth: (No pleasing some folk....)
Zen Arado: or more silence?
Mickorod Renard: I left the retreat with so many answers,,yet also with a hunger for more
Mickorod Renard: oops
Mickorod Renard: I would welcome more silence, but perhaps seperate days to aid reflexion on the things talked about,,sort of to split it up
Mickorod Renard: the end came all too quick
Wol Euler nods.
Mickorod Renard: and I feel we had almost just started
Pema Pera: future retreats will likely be five full days, instead of three full days, Mick
Mickorod Renard: like just started to get our teeth into things
Pema Pera: and next year summer we will have a two week retreat in Nova Scotia
Mickorod Renard: yes Pema?
Lia Rikugun: nice pictuire
Mickorod Renard: I was in no way dissatisfied
Archmage Atlantis: For some of you, yes
Archmage Atlantis: For others,no
Mickorod Renard: but like a lovely meal,,I was left full but longing for a revisit
Mickorod Renard: also the visit to another country is also fun
Mickorod Renard: for example, we saw things of interest too
Mickorod Renard: so as an all round trip,,it was great
Tarmel Udimo: (did you mean this summer 2010 or 2011 Pema?)
Mickorod Renard: viually stimulating, cultural,,and also importantly,,the social and play as being aspect
Pema Pera: (next summer, 2011, Tarmel, for the two-week thing; this summer for one week)
Tarmel Udimo: ta
Yakuzza Lethecus: i just uploaded a few photo´s how the countryside and coast looked like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/40413449@N07/ only the 5 newest photos
Zen Arado: is that at Pema Chodron's place?
Mickorod Renard: wow, thanks Yaku
arabella Ella: oh thanks Yaku!
Bleu Oleander: beautiful!
Agatha Macbeth: Nice Yaku :)
Tarmel Udimo: tks Yak beautiful!
Lia Rikugun: wow nice
Eos Amaterasu: (to Zen: no, Windhorse Farm....)
Mickorod Renard: I liked the balance,,maybe some would have liked more of one thing or another,,but we are a mixed croud
arabella Ella: yes and for some of us it was a first retreat of this kind
Zen Arado: ok thanks - I know she has a place there somewhere
Mickorod Renard: perhaps in the future some emphasis could be placed on describing the intensity
Wol Euler: MIck, you said that you found many answers, would you tell us a little about that or is it too personal?
Mickorod Renard: so as those who want a light intro,,or those who want total submession could choose
Mickorod Renard: well, some are perhaps a lil personal
Mickorod Renard: but as with many things,,one can loose the path
Mickorod Renard: PaB here can be so diverse in discussion
sophia Placebo sneaks
Mickorod Renard: and if we mix this with Wok and time space and perhaps other sessions outside Kira
Mickorod Renard: then it can become a muddle
Mickorod Renard: the retreat offers a realignment
Wol Euler nods.
Mickorod Renard: a chance to get back on track
Mickorod Renard: this too can also mean opening avenues within ones own structure of understanding
Archmage Atlantis: or a chance to find a new track, in the muddle
Liza Deischer: hi Gilles
Mickorod Renard: yes Arch, even a track through the fog
Eos Amaterasu: Pema knows about muddles :-)
Mickorod Renard: confidence too
Tarmel Udimo: (Hi Gilles)
Mickorod Renard: Hi Giles
Gilles Kuhn: hello all
Bertram Jacobus: [hi gilles]
Agatha Macbeth: Hello Mr Wolf
Pema Pera: hehehe, Eos, well, that was a puddle more than a muddle . . . .
Zen Arado: Hi Gilles
Mickorod Renard: one thing that I felt happy with was that one is never pushed into feeling that you are being convereted into anything
Tarmel Udimo: nods
Mickorod Renard: its an open way of seeing,,within anyones beliefs
Tarmel Udimo: nothing to be converted to:)
Mickorod Renard: I dont see why it wouldnt suit anyone and everyone
Mickorod Renard: its a tonic
Tarmel Udimo: nods
Wol Euler nods.
Mickorod Renard: I felt very invigorated aftyerwards
Tarmel Udimo: opening up is always great
Mickorod Renard: and I am sleeping better too
Agatha Macbeth: I think you need a bigger cushion Gilles :)
Wol Euler: that's great, mick.
Gilles Kuhn: even a tonic can be intoxicating and so cannot suit everyone you always need contradiction even in methods to evolve
Tarmel Udimo: also don't forget its great to be in Pema's orbit:)
Mickorod Renard: I will decypher that afterwards Gilles
Gilles Kuhn: lol yes and i have not taken a dragon avi ;-)
Tarmel Udimo: soaking up the Pema vibes:)
Mickorod Renard: Well, I didnt like to say, but what wonderfull company
Mickorod Renard: everyone on this retreat at least, were so great..exept me
Tarmel Udimo: hahahahaha
Pema Pera: hahaha
Mickorod Renard: he he
arabella Ella: owwwwww Mick
Lia Rikugun: :)
Wol Euler: nonsense.
arabella Ella: I must say we have a lot to thank Mick for too ....
arabella Ella: he had lots of patience as the official designated driver of an 8-seater vehicle
Mickorod Renard: It was something that I had spoken with Ara about,,we both agreed that everyone was so nice
arabella Ella: thanks Mick for your patience!
Pema Pera: it was amazing to see how again everybody got along so well with everybody else -- a minor miracle in a group, suddenly spending so much time together so intensely
Mickorod Renard: your welcome
Lia Rikugun: yes thank you for driing!
Lia Rikugun: driving
arabella Ella: and your patience with getting lost too once or twice :)
arabella Ella: following a female driver ... no names here!
Liza Deischer: :-)

Bertram Jacobus: ty for being mick !
Wol Euler nods gratefully.
arabella Ella: thanks ... it was a pleasure!
Bertram Jacobus: and all
Mickorod Renard: and I didnt realise how much Eos was so central to it all too
Mickorod Renard: Eos was so instrumental in providing extra asngles of vision
Wol Euler nods.
arabella Ella: and i feel Eos was like a solid anchor throughout the retreat too
Eos Amaterasu ponders this, & ?
Archmage Atlantis: i was commenting earlier that the PaB sessions are better when both aspects of gender are represented
Mickorod Renard: I was almost going to type those same wrds Ara
Tarmel Udimo: Eos is a solid anchor:)
Mickorod Renard: yeaaa,,too right

The Slot Expert's Guide to Winning at Slots: Tax Tips for Slot and Video Poker Players31 January 2000
You can hear me give my slot and video poker tips live on The Good Times Show, hosted by Rudi Schiffer with Frank Scoblete, which is broadcast live from Memphis on WHBQ over the air on 560AM and over the Internet on Yahoo! Broadcast on Saturday morning from 8-10 CT.
This Week's Tip
Tax Tips For Slot And Video Poker Players
This is the time of year when you receive your W-2 and 1099 forms, so it's a good time to talk about taxes for slot and video poker players. If you won a jackpot of $1200 or more or last year, you were given a tax form along with your cash and you have to report your winnings as income on your income tax return. Did you know that you can claim your gambling losses as a miscellaneous deduction on Schedule A? And did you know that your slot clubs can help you calculate any losses you may have?
First, a suggestion: Always keep your own records of wins and losses. Slot club systems aren't perfect and they sometimes miss some of your play. I carry a small notebook with me. I write down the date, the casino, the name of the machine, the serial number of the machine (if I can read it), the amount of money I put into the machine (my session amount), and the amount of money I took away from the machine. The difference between between what I had at the end and what I put in is my net win or loss at the machine.
To get your win/loss record from your slot clubs, call them up and request it. Some clubs may ask you to send a letter requesting the statement. The club will send you a statement recapping your play for the year. The statement will usually have three totals on it: coin-in, coin-out, and net win/loss. There is much confusion about what these terms mean, so let's look at their definitions.
Here are a few examples:
Let's say you put a twenty-dollar bill in a dollar machine. You play five spins at $2 per spin and don't hit anything. You cash out the $10. Your coin-in on this machine is $10 and your coin-out is $0. Your net is -$10.
You take the $10 and play another dollar machine at $2 per spin. On the second spin you win $50. Your credit meter is now $56. You play eight more spins and don't hit anything. You decide to cash out the $50 left on your credit meter. You played ten spins on this machine, so your coin-in is $20. Your coin-out is $50. Your net is $30.
Your slot club will report to you that your total coin-in was $30, your total coin-out $50, and for a net win of $20.
If you were keeping your own records, you would write down that you put $20 in the first machine and took $10 away from it, for a net loss of $10. On the second machine, your records would show that you put $10 in it and took $40 away from it, for a net win of $30. And if you counted the money in your wallet, you'd see that you had $20 more in it now than when you started.
The slub calculated the same net numbers as you did, but they used different numbers to get there. The slot club doesn't care about what you put into the bill acceptor; it only cares about what you wager in the machine. And it doesn't care about what you cash out of the machine; it will track every payout you get instead.
Keep in mind that the net win/loss figure the club reports to you includes the W-2G winnings you have to report on another line. Subtract the winnings you had to report on another line from the net number the club gives you. Add up all of the net numbers from all of your clubs. If you have a loss, you can use it to offset some or all of the winnings you had to declare on another line. If you have a net win, it's up to you and your conscience whether you report the extra winnings. If you decide not to report it, I'll never tell.
Tax rules change frequently, so check with your preparer or read the instructions in the booklet carefully to make sure you take the deduction properly.

This last week, in mid-July, we ventured out into the Sawatch Range for a 4-day, 25-mile, one-way shuttle trek through the southern bulk of the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness west of Buena Vista, Colorado. The Collegiate Peaks Wilderness has the highest average elevation of any wilderness area in the United States, and includes eight 14ers (mountains over 14,000 feet elevation), five of which are named after Ivy League universities (thus the name of the wilderness). Our backpacking route took us directly over two of these fourteeners - Mount Harvard and Mount Belford.
Through the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness
After driving there and shuttling vehicles from our end point to the starting point, we got an afternoon start and hiked up to Hartenstein Lake for our first night. Unfortunately our timing was just about 20 minutes too late, and the skies unleashed with thunder and blowing sheets of rain before we could find a good campsite and set up the tent. Recurring waves of thunderstorms, swarms of mosquitos, and driving rain for most of the night made this kind of a grim evening of camping to be honest.
On Day 2 we enjoyed a beautiful hike over a vast high tundra pass, down through the next valley, then up to the Horn Fork Basin below the fourteeners Mount Harvard and Mount Columbia.
For Day 3 my ambitious plan was to wake up super early and hike up Mount Harvard in the dark in order to be on the summit for sunrise. But again it rained for most of the night, and when my alarm clock woke me at 2am it was still raining. Damn... But, being stubborn about my plans, I figured surely it would stop raining at some point, so I just put my clothes on anyways and started getting ready for a wet and dark hike. Miraculously, by the time I got out of the tent, not only had it stopped raining but the sky was completely clear and starry! Nice!
As usual, the crux of the morning was just waking up and deciding to go, then the hike up Mount Harvard in the dark was just a matter of grinding it out up the well-trodden 14er trail with my bright headlamp to illuminate the way.
At 14,420 feet tall, Mount Harvard is the third highest 14er in Colorado, and in my opinion offers one of the best summit views of the 14ers. From the top you can see the majority of the mountain ranges of the state - from the San Juans far in the distance to the southwest, to the Sangres in the south, the Elk Mountains in the west, all the up to the Gore Range to the north, and the Front Range even further.
Though the sunrise was short-lived due to clouds in the east, I still had fun photographing from the summit, particularly picking out distant peaks with my telephoto lens.
After about three hours or so up there by myself, the day's 14er hikers started showing up, and eventually Claudia (who slept in while I was doing my pre-dawn hike) joined me at the summit and we found a nice spot out of the wind to cook our morning coffee and oatmeal while soaking in the immense views.
As the first little puffy clouds started forming, we knew we'd better get going before the thunderstorms brewed. Sure enough, before we were even 1,000 feet below the summit, the little puffy clouds had ballooned into towering cumulus clouds. We picked up the pace a bit.
By the time we had made it down from Mount Harvard's ridge into the next basin, there were black clouds the next ridge over, and we watched lightning bolts striking just over Mount Belford as thunder rumbled.
With more waves of thunderstorms (and more swarms of mosquitos) we spent much of the afternoon in the tent, which was fine by me as I needed a nap after my 2am start that morning!
On our fourth and final day of our trek, we were treated to a glorious cotton-candy sunrise above the remote lake where we were camped near. So far on this trip I had felt like I'd been mostly skunked for good light, so it was a big pleasure to score a spectacular show on our final morning!
After sunrise and lakeside coffee and breakfast, we had a wonderful day of hiking all the way around Missouri Basin, a remarkably broad, immense basin surrounded by 14ers and 13ers. After crossing over Elkhead Pass it was just a quick jaunt up to the 14,197 ft. summit of Mount Belford for the easiest 14er bagging that I've ever done (since our route already brought us up so high anyways). With dark thunderclouds brewing yet again, tagging the neighboring Mount Oxford fourteener was out of the question and we scurried down Belford and Missouri Gulch back to our car (and potato chips!) waiting for us there.
As always, it was super fun and satisfying to plan out and hike a novel and adventurous route through the mountains and to visit some basins and peaks that I've long desired to see.

JPA – Youth Advocates For ChildSafe!
The work of Friends-International has always been informed by listening to children and young people, responding to their needs and ensuring through our projects and initiatives that their rights are being met. It's particularly heartening for us then when young people themselves become inspired into advocacy and action. The following is a tremendous example of just such happening…
Kaliyan Mith Siem Reap recently hosted a visit from students of the Jay Pritzker Academy in Siem Reap. These young Cambodians (four girls and one boy, aged between 17 and 20 years old) spent one week with the program, three days focused on social work and the final two on learning more about the ChildSafe Movement. They then took their learning out into an external forum, presenting to a meeting of the Angkor HUB.
They talked openly about how some preconceptions they had, for example about drug using youth, had changed after their visit and learning opportunities. They discussed their learning about ChildSafe Movement, and particular issues such as safe migration, and of great interest was their understanding of the ChildSafe campaigns against visiting or supporting orphanages. One of the participants has actually lived in an orphanage for over 12 years, and was able to reflect on the negative impact that had had upon his life and family, such as the damage it had done to the relationship with his mother.
In addition, the group shared the results of a brainstorming session they had held on the subject of the Cambodian Citizen Tips – how they could be made more effective and interactive with a lot of really interesting ideas coming out!
The Hub presentation will be available soon on video, look out for our upcoming posting of that, in the meantime please enjoy the attached photographs of the brainstorming and Hub sessions!

ErgoQuest 500 Lets You Work in Bed
We all know sitting long hours at the computer is not healthy, but for many of us, our occupation leaves us no choice. The ErgoQuest 500 from Office Organix makes the best of it by providing a flexible system that lets you recline and even lay in bed as you work. Employers probably wont be furnishing the office with these anytime soon, but if you work from home, this might be a good solution for your home office.
The ErgoQuest 500 comes with a motorized monitor tilt platform that can tilt monitors up to 150lbs from 0 to 55 degrees and also accomodates LCD monitors. The motorized legs also raise and lower the table with up to 400lbs of equipemtn from 31 to 50 degrees with the push of a button.

CAPTAIN's CORNER
We have been blessed with perfect weather again, resulting in another great week for golf.
Monday's field of 101 players made for a very successful day. The field consisted of 45 Cooroy, 37 Gympie, and 19 Tin Can Bay players. A great effort by all, as every nominated player turned up to play.
Part of the success of these days is due to preparation by our Committee, and the efforts from our loyal helpers. With that in mind I would like to thank Kevin Crundall who is always one of the 1st at the Club on match day's and is always ready to help out wherever he can. Another person who is always willing to pitch in, is Ron Blount. Great efforts and much appreciated.
Our recently new Committee member Bruce Cowan sacrificed his own game so he could assist on Monday. He did a great job in registering all of our visitors, and then took on the thankless job of Course Marshal. If anyone would like to have a crack at this job I would like to remind them that it is unpaid, and all that you can expect to receive from the whole experience is abuse. ALL APPLICATIONS MUST COME THROUGH THE CAPTAIN.
On Wednesday we ended up with 79 players, and the day produced a few highlights worth mentioning. The 1st being Les Terrans "HOLE in 1" on the 4th . Not quite as spectacular, but also worthy of a mention was Don Pigdon's 3 for 5 points on the 3rd . And not to be outdone the "Little Master" himself Jim Penman shot a very impressive 39 off the bat on the back 9.
Next week we play a Canadian 2 Stroke where each player plays 2 strokes with their own ball before choosing the ball to play. Each player then plays alternate strokes until holed out. It should prove to be the perfect contest to try out the freshly cored greens.
My final words are about behaviour. If you have a problem with anything out on the course, come and see me and let me sort it out. What we don't want to see, is any of our members causing a scene in the Clubhouse, especially in front of visitors.
You may be aware Wednesday was Robyn's last day providing meals.
From next week sandwiches, wraps and pies will be available on Wednesday. There will be an Order Sheet available at the bar. The idea is that you ORDER BEFORE you head out to play then when you return from your round collect your order and pay.
We are currently considering catering options for host days and other events.

Explore the West Thumb Geyser basin. This offers paint pots, colorful small geysers, vivid hot springs, and dormant geysers on the shore of the scenic Yellowstone lake. Take a stroll through the geyser basin and enjoy the pleasant view of Yellowstone Lake. Try to visit in the afternoon for better views and a cool breeze.
These photos are from our two day trip to Yellowstone National park in late August 2012.
Best Things To Do
- West Thumb Geyser Basin Trail: This is a short 1 mile loop boardwalk from the West Thumb Geyser Basin parking lot that features the colorful hot springs and dormant geysers on the scenic shores of Yellowstone Lake.
- Mud Volcano Trail: This 0.7 mile boardwalk loop is about 26 miles north of West Thumb Geyser Basin. This short and easy trail features turbulent pools of hot, muddy water, strange odors, and a bizarre landscape. The main attraction is the Dragon's Mouth Hot Spring. As the name suggests, a large amount of steam rises out from the mouth of the cave, like smoke blowing from the mouth of a dragon. It makes a booming, gurgling, and growling kind of an animal sound as the gases and steam are released from the deep cave.

text: As 2009 comes to an end, I'm very happy to report that one of the projects that will be keeping me busy during the start of 2010 will be work on the upcoming fifth editions of The Rough Guide to Tokyo and The Rough Guide to Japan (due for release in 2011). I'll be contributing to both, but mostly on the Tokyo guide — joining author Simon Richmond — with contributions to the Japan guide limited to Tokyo and surrounding areas.
