Monday News

Got notified I got a conference paper accepted today – the sweet thing is I thought this paper had been rejected (notification took so long).. so, happy out.. (and before you ask - conference is in Sligo! whey hey!)

Had a nice weekend - phd-ing, watching CSI and then had a nice meal out with the lads Saturday evening… Monaghan drew with Armagh yesterday in our first outing of this years championship. Tipp beat Limerick in the hurling, in football Louth lost to Meath, Offaly won against Westmeath, NYC lost to Roscommon and in baseball the Yankee’s lost to the Red Sox!

Other sport news – there’s a new world record in the 100m - 9.76! wow! Justin Gatlin broke the record on Friday, so amazing, that guy is fast (and only 24yrs old!)

Finally, best of luck to Kevin and Eamonn who headed off this morning to complete the IRONMAN in Lanzarote. On Saturday they complete the 3.8k swim, 180k cycle and 42.2 run!!!! What a challenge!
