		In addressing Kirby’s contention that the trial court should have imposed less than the presumptive sentence, we note that sentencing decisions rest within the sound discretion of the trial court, and on appeal the trial court’s decision will be reversed only upon a showing of a manifest abuse of that discretion.
		First, Kirby claims that the trial court’s use of his failure to pay child support as an aggravator is unprecedented in Indiana and violates the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the U.S. Constitution, and the Equal Privileges and Immunities Clause of the Indiana Constitution.
		Specifically, Kirby asserts that, “before nonpayment of child support may be considered as an aggravating factor in a sentencing decision, it must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant had the financial ability to comply with a child support order and willfully failed to do so.” Appellant’s brief at 11-12.

	AM - Justice Kirby warns of the death penalty
		LINDA MOTTRAM: High Court Justice Michael Kirby has cautioned that the absence of the death penalty in Australia can no longer be taken for granted, in the wake of the Bali bombing trials and the consequent rekindling of debate on death as a punishment.
		MICHAEL KIRBY: If you ask what is the essence of human rights, I think it's love, that you can love another person, even a person who's done very wrong things, because you realise you share with them the phenomenon of the common existence of our species.
		MICHAEL KIRBY: And it's important because it's about the assurance that our commitment to love is not just when the going's good, like the High Court in the Communist Party case and in Takiar (phonetic) and in other cases.

		Michael Kirby, in his book A Formalist Theatre, states that, "Historically, a formalist production used form to make its meaning or the feelings attached to that meaning more significant, clearer and more powerful" (109).
		He does not allow the attention of the viewer to linger on the actions of the "characters." And like Kirby he redirects the attention of the audience onto the structure of the piece, which is of ultimate importance.
		Kirby states that unlike Structuralist film, Structuralist theatre cannot be about the technical aspects of theatre (Kirby 142).

		Kirby is one of those skating folks who are invisible to the public, but universally known behind the scenes for his vital contributions to the sport as it has developed.
		Apparently, the "effect to Ronnie's psyche" to which Kirby refers is NOT the damage to a young teen of seeing one's homophobic coach busting in like a cop and committing violent assault upon a friend, at a time when the repercussions of being gay and associating with other gays were deeply frightening.
		Kirby had known this skater was gay, and treated him very well and without the least prejudice.

		Kirby records time and time again the suffering of the dispossessed and the potential for abuse in new areas of human knowledge and power.
		Yet Kirby is an optimist and maintains great faith in the values of human rights and the 'road to enlightenment'.
		The foreword identifies three constant themes in Justice Kirby's work: first the function of the law in protecting disadvantaged groups and minorities; secondly, the rendering of municipal law accountable to the growing force of international law; and thirdly, the conceptualising of case decisions as distinct from mechanically applying them.

	St Michael, Cold Kirby
		A little glimpse of mediaeval Cold Kirby is provided by a rather odd and, unfortunately, not very edifying story about one of its priests, found in a 15th century collection of local ghost stories compiled by one of the monks of Byland Abbey.
		The priest in question was himself a monk from Byland, but evidently not a very good one, since he kept a concubine in the village, and when he died became a rather turbulent ghost, inspiring quite an hysterical reaction from the people.
		And it is said that the Abbot and Convent had the body dug up out of its grave, together with its coffin, and they made Roger Wayneman carry him to Gormire, and there he threw the coffin into the water, though the oxen nearly sank in the myre for fear.

		The High Court judge Michael Kirby has urged Australia's security chiefs and judges not to exaggerate the risk of terrorism, saying that more people die of AIDS every day than were killed in the World Trade Centre in the September 11 attacks.
		Justice Kirby's speech, released yesterday, was originally delivered behind closed doors to a special conference on national security and the law 10 days ago.
		Justice Kirby acknowledged that the risks posed by modern terrorists were "in some ways more perilous" because of new technology and the loose structure of terrorist networks.
