Why is everyone attacking young people? Where in the article does it say a young person stole the flowers and bucket? How do you know it wasn't someone over the age of, I don't know, 35? Barbara, you say very few young people say thank you or excuse me anymore, well, I work in the service industry and so I deal with the public on a daily basis, I can certianly tell you that the same thing can be said of 'older' people. I also encounter it outside my job as well. Why is it that the old attack the young and the young attack the old? It doesn't matter what age someone is, old and young alike, there are bad apples amongst the good. Maybe if each individual person was more conscious of how they treated other people and if everyone was more respectful, it would be returned in-kind. What's that golden rule? Do onto others as you would have them do onto you. Having a better city, town, world to live in take a united effort on all parts, young and old. If the thief reads this article, please return the stolen items.

The nuber of lowlife scumbags in and around this dirty town seems to grow each day. Our parks are constantly under attack, with Bowering park being the latest victim. Where will all this vandalism, senseless vandalism lead? I heard a young fellow say a few weeks ago that the only thing Newfounland would be good for is a toxic waste dump. There is a generation growing up with a hatred for this place, and all that we have tried to create here.The only answer I can see is to seriously try to get to these kids when they are young. Explain to them how much hard work and money goes into building a park. Take a class out of scholl for the day and have them paint picknick tables, and weed gardens etc.People talk about video cameras, and increased fines and jail time, that doesn't work. We have to try to get these kids to understand, get them to learn what the word RESPECT means.Where are the so called parents? Dad is gone, and Mom is struggleing with two jobs. The kids are on their own. I ask myself how can a kid go over to the park at 13 years of age drinking beer, and beating up everything in sight without the parents knowing? They must know when little Johnny shows up at midnight stinking of beer and dope. They just don't care anymore. The least of that Mom's worrys is that Johnny will go over and beat everything to peicies in the park. Mom is just hoping he won't start doing it at home. I don't know where this will end, but I think we have to try to instill some sort of pride into these kids, in the hope that maybe they will think a little before they destroy.

Youths are a product of their environment. If there are destructive youths, they were raised that way. Let's not paint all youths the same. For alls its shame, drudgery and broken dreams its still a beautiful world.

This type of reading discuss me big time. I do have faith in our youth as they are not all alike. I know kids who have done humanitarian work in our community. Others are left to roam uncivilized, unchecked by parents/ grandparents because they are allowed to quit school, in bed all day and when working people go to bed @ a decent hour, these renegades are getting up to go do the town, vandalize, steal etc. When something happens and the heat is on, dad or grandma takes the car until things are cool. They should be made if caught to go back to school, community work or be put in the military no question about it. We have had thiefs of cemetary flowers on Bell Island for the past 3 years. We placed saddle arrangements on 2 graves, one being a child. How low can you get to do something of that nature. This we believe was not done by teenagers but by adults. This year we have made it harder to steal, if there's work involved they may get discouraged. LOW LIFES!!

Perhaps instead of the seniors going out & doing this the crowd up on Parade St ( Youth Detention) should go out & clean it up.

Wanna know one problem with todays youth? They are not afriad of anything because you cant punish your children anymore for fear of them being taken away. Now some parents would welcome the spare bedroom, but most parents do care about their children and are afraid to try and teach a child proper respect. I am not talking about physical abuse, I am talking every day sensibility and etiquette. When my son was 2 and in daycare, a note came home one day saying he had hit another child. I took most of his toys and movies for 3 days. When I asked the daycare what they were doing on their end to discipline my boy, they said they arent allowed to do anything to discipline a child. I asked them, What do you mean, you cant make them have a timeout in the corner by themselves. They said they could not do that because if a social worker ever heard of it they would be shut down!!! Come on, children are being given the run of everything they are involved with from such an early age, anw we are all surprised when they figure they have the right of way. My son is starting school in the fall and during one of the school's pre-school information sessions one parent said, I cant get my daughhter to put her phone down long enough to help me with the dishes, let alone excercise, to which the school representative replied Well you can only discuss with your child your concerns for them. Are you kidding me?!? TAKE THE F%^&N PHONE AWAY!!!! Beat the thing up in the driveway if you have to in order to get your point across, but do something. Asking children to stop doing something is pointless, there has to be consequences for their actions from an early age if you want them to learn any respect.

Good Call, John Smith. We are now raising a generation of rude, angry and disrespecful people. Very few young people say thank you or excuse me anymore unless they are well over Twenty.They seem to think that the world owes them and they can do or say what they want. I realize that times change but manners should not go out of style. Respect seems to be an old fashioned idea. If they see it and want it they take it. If they don't like it they destroy it. These are the people who will look ater us when we are old. All I can say is God Help Us because they won't.

I have to agree with you Brad, there is nothing that states this was done by young people. And the older generations can be just as rude. I worked with a teen center and the teenagers there complained about the cops always on thier back for drinking. I tried to explain that cops could care less if they drank responsibly and did not damage property. The cops hassled them because they would take empty bottles and throw at peoples houses, or smash on the roads. The people living in those areas would complain to the police, who would then hassle the teenagers. I drank as a teenager, mostly to excess. I also smoked up, hung out and wasted my youth doing things I wish I could do again. I am willing to bet everyone here has probably done some of it.

yeah yeah, this generation is rude and disrespectful, just like the last generation and the one before it. But were all controlled by our money and our environments and so if you find who controls those things you find whos really raising your children.

Questions Relating to Dental Implants
What are dental implants?
Dental implants begin with an evaluation by your general dentist who will decide if you are a good candidate for this procedure.For more detailed information, please see the section entitled "Dental Implants."
Do implants work as well as natural teeth?
How much do dental implants cost?
How soon is it possible to eat after receiving dental implants?
Questions Relating to Periodontal Disease
What is periodontal disease?
This infection starts destroying the bone that supports your teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss. For more information, please see the section entitled "Periodontal Disease."
What are the symptoms of periodontal infection?
- Red, swollen or tender gums
- Tooth sensitivity to heat/cold
- Bad breath
- Deep pockets around the teeth
- Spaces between the teeth
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Missing teeth
- Gums receding around the teeth (longer looking teeth)
Why, all of a sudden, is my dentist sending me to a periodontist?
Patients with periodontal infection have a lowered resistance to periodontal bacteria. This causes a continuing gum infection that can grow in bursts of activity. Some factors that can cause a dramatic increase in the severity of your periodontal disease are:
- Poor oral hygiene
- Dental plaque
- Smoking
- Genetic factors
- Stress
- Diet
- Age
- Illness
Two other important factors are:
- Lack of regular dental checkups
- Lack of regular dental cleanings
How is periodontal disease treated?
For more information see Periodontal Disease Treatment.
Does periodontal treatment hurt?
For more information on the patient comfort techniques we use, see our Procedures page.
Why must I start treatment right away?
It is likely that you have been referred to us because your general dentist has noticed an increase in infection activity. This infection eats away at the bone that supports your teeth (leading to tooth loss). If not treated, there can be a number of consequences. Please see the Dental & Medical Consequences section for a list of these.
General Questions
What is going to happen on my first visit?
Afterwards, our findings and your options for treatment will be thoroughly explained. At that time, the doctor will answer any questions you may have.Our goal is that you leave with a complete understanding of your condition and the treatment needed to restore you to optimum oral health.
How much will treatment cost and will my insurance cover it?
Everyone deserves to keep their natural teeth for a lifetime. While periodontal treatment is not as costly as replacing natural teeth due to tooth loss, its cost can vary greatly depending upon your needs.
We will submit to most dental insurances and will assist you in determining what portion of your treatment is covered by insurance. Please bring your insurance card or papers on the first visit.
We feel that finances should never be an obstacle to treatment. For your convenience, we offer several payment options. We also have payment plans to suit your individual needs. Our office manager will be happy to answer any of your financial or insurance questions.
What are the medical consequences if I delay treatment?
Recent research has found that patients with periodontal disease are more than twice as likely to suffer heart disease and stroke. Please read the section entitled "Dental & Medical Consequences" to see an overview of recent research correlating periodontal disease with serious medical problems.
Do you use the latest equipment and techniques?
Regarding sterilization, we believe that all procedures should be safe as well as comfortable. We use only the latest sterilization techniques. For more information on treatment techniques and sterilization see the section entitled "Procedures."
What other treatments do you provide?
Prescriptive Periodontal Procedures:
- Crown lengthening
- Aesthetic Ridge augmentation
- Connective tissue grafting
Cosmetic Procedures:
- Gingival (gum) contouring
- Aesthetic crown lengthening
- Soft tissue grafting
How is my general dentist important in my overall care?
In many cases, your general dentist may do your preliminary periodontal treatment and a portion of your periodontal maintenance.

Three investors filed a class-action on Wednesday in the U.S. District Court in New York against Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg and Morgan Stanley, the lead underwriter for Facebook's IPO. An investor also filed a similar lawsuit in California on Tuesday.
The investors allege that Facebook concealed information from most investors that the company's revenue growth forecast would be reduced in 2012.
"There was material information that wasn't shared, or properly disclosed in the registration statement and prospectus prepared, in connection with the IPO," said Sam Rudman, an attorney representing the shareholders.
The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority are now conducting investigations of Facebook's IPO.
Facebooks shares jumped over 3% and closed at $32 per share Wednesday.

Boardwalk Empire Review: I Am Who I Amby Chris O'Hara at . Comments
In the wake of Eddie Kessler's death, Nucky and Eli each struggled with the direction of their lives this week on Boardwalk Empire.
"The North Star" also featured the return of Richard to Atlantic City as he checked in on the life he left behind after last season's shootout.
Other than Eddie, Margaret probably has been most privy to the private side of Nucky and his vulnerabilities. With Eddie gone, Nucky reached out to her while in New York, hoping to find some shred of the connection they once shared. Even after hearing of Nucky's recent loss, she remained guarded and unwilling to grant him any feeling of their former connection.
The fact Nucky ordered that cinnamon roll, which Margaret noted his usual distaste for, showed how Nucky wasn't himself and was searching for something. Any feeling of sympathy Margaret may have begun to feel for him, though, was short-lived after his absent minded comment about Teddy's present stirred up the memory of Owen Sleater's death.
Nucky: I wouldn't put something alive in a box. | permalink
Nucky later discussed how uncertain he was feeling while sharing some local spirits with Sally at her bar. He asked her what it said about his character that all he could think about was what Eddie had been up to that forced him to take his own life and if he should be worried. Well... Nucky should be worried, but he would probably find assurance in knowing that even when shaken, his intuition was as reliable as ever. He wasn't given much time to dwell on it, as Sally cut his pity party short with a couple hard rights to his face. I couldn't help but laugh at her choice of words as she and Nucky began to have sex.
Sally: Let's go Sparky, I'll give you something to cry about.
Hopefully she meant her love making ability would move him to tears and not that it would give him some scorching rash. He seemed pretty clear headed the next day, however, as he announced to Meyer and Bill that Sally would be keeping an eye on his affairs in Tampa. Nucky seems to think Florida could provide a fresh start for him. He seemed to be thinking as much when Meyer offered his condolences for Eddie and Nucky replied how that "all happened somewhere else."
Sadly for fans of Lucky Luciano, any future scenes with him and Meyer will have to take place somewhere else, as the two long time friends and partners parted ways. The introduction of Vincenzo Petrucelli threatened to bring down the wrath of Joe Masseria on Luciano because of their familial ties. Nucky may have been so intent on building something new that rushing into business with Petrucelli might prove dangerous. Especially if Masseria does in fact still hold a grudge against him, like Lucky alluded to. There are also the friends of Tucker who showed up looking for answers that have yet to be dealt with. So a lot of uncertainty still remained as Nucky headed home.
Richard wasn't looking over his shoulder for any associates of Gyp Rosetti as he returned to Atlantic City, but instead was worried about whether or not Julia and Paul Sagorsky would welcome him back after all the blood he shed. In sharing his story from the Philippines, Paul said enough to assure Richard he was okay with what he did. Julia wasn't as quick to forgive him, but she also mentioned how she isn't too keen on trying to raise Tommy on her own. Things will certainly get more interesting there, as the custody ruling approaches. How far will Richard go to ensure Tommy doesn't end up with Gillian?
Eli spent much of the episode worrying about his own children and how his path in life may rob them of their father. He couldn't sleep because he was thinking about Willie at school, and later he voiced his concern about Eddie's birds and their fragile existence. These feelings all came about after he realized Eddie had two sons that he left behind.
Knox breathed a sigh of relief, no doubt, when he learned Eddie's death was a suicide, but he may have slipped up when he handed Eli his handkerchief. The embroidered initials we saw were JTM. In the 19th and early 20th century, the rules of embroidery typically had the middle initial represent the last name. So it remains a mystery as to who J.T. is, but Eli surely recognized the disparity between the item's owner and the man who handed it to him.
Chalky tried to spend some time with his son this week, but got nothing but criticism from his wife for doing so. After seeing the tension and disconnect that still exists between the married couple, it shouldn't have been a surprise to see Chalky and Daughter Maitland's affair begin. The interesting twist was how Narcisse's hold over the singer may be chemical in nature, in addition to her contractual obligation. As she began her performance, she mentioned to the piano player how she was "comin' down hard." Chalky had sent for her after the show, but noted how she ran out of the club like she stole something.
My guess is she ran out of there to cop more drugs. Either way, the stage is being set for an epic showdown between Chalky and the not so good doctor.
It was good to see Margaret, but she was smart not to divulge too much information, especially if Joe Masseria in New York looks to hurt Nucky at some point. Richard has some catching up to do, but his return was also nice to see. Adding some levity to an emotion filled episode was the always jocular Mickey Doyle. With so many story lines pulling characters in different directions, which ones are holding your interest and are there any you could do without?
I'm really interested in what Richard is going to do about the situation with Tommy. Richard is, in my opinion, the show's most intriguing character right now, but I have a feeling that he's going to wind up in a situation he can't solve by killing someone, which will be tricky.
I just LOVE the in-depth conversation flowing tonight!

Man alive, I cannot get over that noone else is commenting on this show.........we had more than this last season! PLEASE DON'T STOP WRITING CHRIS!! hehehe Anyway...........You brought up some excellent points.........In reality, Van Alden can't hide out forever.........someone somewhere will eventually recognize him........I know Nucky would, as he had several run ins with him.
Hey @Terrie great to hear from you as always. Interesting thought that Daughter hooking up with Chalky could be part of Narcisse's master plan. I sort of think her dependence on his drugs and the grip he has on her contractually is what is going to force Chalky to do something about his nemesis who he referred to as, just a "not so nice word" with a dictionary. Eli prob will mention something to Nucky about Eddie having two sons, but more importantly I think he will look into the handkerchief discrepancy. I also am not convinced that his suicide said what Knox translated it as. Knox will surely investigate Ralph Capone now off Eddie's tip, which might prove to be Van Alden's undoing if someone recognizes him. Or perhaps Knox enlists Van Alden's help making him a triple agent working for O'Banion, the Capones and the gov't.
Hi Chris, It's me again! LOL.......... There is definitely a huge disconnect with Nucky and Margaret. I don't know why the two just don't get a divorce..........Who DIDN'T see Nucky hooking up with Sally............ I also kinda seen the hook up coming with Chalky and Daughter Maitlyn as well. I think that is part of the evil Dr's ultimate plan. Do you think Eli will tell Nucky what he's learned about Eddie? Eli and Nucky both seem very conflicted these days....... I think Richard will do anything to make sure Tommy doesn't end up with Gillian. Now to see what's next with Capone and Van Alden...........

Use of medicines in pregnancy Medicines and your baby or child
Use of medicines in pregnancy
Although many medicines may be taken safely during pregnancy, others may pass to the baby and could harm them. Always talk to your GP or other healthcare professional such as your pharmacist or midwife to obtain advice, especially if you need to take a medicine regularly (for instance to treat a long-term condition).
The best advice is to avoid all medicines during the first three months of pregnancy where possible, unless specifically prescribed by your doctor.
Medicines, including herbal remedies, should be taken during pregnancy only if the expected benefit to you is greater than any risk to your baby. It is safer to avoid taking any non-essential medicines.
Any medicine that your doctor prescribes or that you buy will have information on whether or not it may be used safely during pregnancy. The information will be on the product label and/or in the patient information leaflet, and it is important that you read both carefully before taking the medicine.
If you have any questions or concerns about the safe use of any medicines, including those you may have taken before you knew you were pregnant, you should speak with your pharmacist or doctor.
Medicines and your baby or child
If your doctor or pharmacist has prescribed a medicine for your baby or child, remember to:
- ask your doctor or pharmacist what the medicine is for, how often to give it, and what side-effects the medicine may have so you can look out for them
- read the enclosed leaflet for the medicine, which contains important information such as how much to give your baby or child and when, and any potential side-effects the medicine might cause.
If you plan to give your baby or child a medicine you have bought:
- check that it is suitable to give to babies and children—the medicine should state what age it is recommended for
- speak to a pharmacist if you have any doubt about the suitability of a particular medicine for your baby or child
- take care to give your baby or child the correct recommended dose for their age or weight— remember that your child's needs may change over time as they grow
- consider using an oral syringe (available from a pharmacy) if your baby or child finds it difficult to take medicine from a spoon.
Always remember:
- store medicines out of the reach and sight of children—a lockable cupboard is ideal
- check the storage requirements for the medicine—for instance some should be stored in the fridge, but make sure they stay away from the reach of tiny hands; old or unused medicines can be returned to a pharmacy for safe disposal
- never give your baby or child more than the maximum recommended dose of medicine
- never give your baby or child a medicine prescribed for someone else
- speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts about the health of your baby or child, or if you have any questions about medicines for your family.

'Trainees' Archives
10% of foreign residents have left disaster-hit prefectures
The number of foreign residents in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures dropped 10.5 percent to 30,092 between the end of December and the end of March, according to the Justice Ministry. The number of foreigners declined 1.9 percent nationwide during the same period. "Many foreigners returned to their countries after the disaster and have not returned to Japan as they are concerned about the nuclear crisis" at the Fukushima No. 1 power plant, an official in the ministry's Immigration Bureau said. The number of foreign residents also decreased by 944 in the three prefectures between the end of March and the end of June. Foreign trainees at companies and other entities at the end of [...]
Foreign trainee program 'like human trafficking'
The U.S. State Department said in its annual Trafficking in Persons Report that some conditions faced by participants in Japan's foreign trainee program were similar to those seen in human trafficking operations. (more…)
Chinese exodus hurts industries dependent on foreign trainees, interns
According to the Japan Textile Federation, about 40,000 foreign interns, 99 percent of whom were from China, worked at textile-related companies before the March 11 quake. Many returned to China after the disasters, creating big difficulties for the companies. At a sewing plant in Tokyo, four interns returned to China in late April, leaving the plant with none. There were five before the quake. While the plant continues to operate with its 21 Japanese workers, it has seen a 30-percent decrease in finished women's clothing. Under such circumstances, some companies are moving away from their dependence on foreign interns. For example, a sewing company in the Tohoku region that serves as a [...]
Media starting to tally the economic effects of foreigner flight
News reports immediately following the March 11 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear plant accident of panicked foreign residents lining up for the first flight home — in many cases advised to flee by their own governments — had the initial result of helping to feed the sense of angst among Japanese that has pervaded much of the postquake reporting.

Industries left short-handed after foreign workers flee Japan following nuke accident
Tens of thousands of worried foreign workers left Japan shortly after a crisis at the nuclear power plant that was crippled by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, causing serious labor shortages in some industries. (more…)
原発事故:戻らぬ中国人労働者 縫製業は減産も

Loyal Filipinas refuse to abandon elderly patients
"How can I leave these people who are relying on me?" said. Fanai is not the only Filipina who chose to stay on at the home despite the natural disaster and the aftershocks, coupled with the ongoing crisis at the stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant. Sandra Otacan, 35, said she had no idea the nuclear plant was situated in the same prefecture. Shirakawa sits well beyond a 30-kilometer radius from the plant, the zone the central government asked people to evacuate or stay indoors due to potential radiation exposure. Still her family in Mindanao island said repeatedly that Japan is dangerous when they talked to her on the telephone. Otacan said she tried to reassure them, saying [...]
Flight of Chinese workers leaves Japanese businesses in the lurch
With many of the tens of thousands of workers who had helped fill Japan's labor needs having returned to China after the earthquake and tsunami, the country faces another obstacle to recovery. As the manager of a sleek restaurant in Tokyo's Ginza shopping district, Yu Yoshida never expected he'd be in the kitchen wearing a white chef's hat and wrapping little dumplings. But that's exactly what he was doing this week as customers in this still disaster-shocked city start to drift back, a welcome but also worrisome prospect for the 33-year-old manager. That's because 15 of his workers, all Chinese nationals, bolted within a few days of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, leaving Yoshida [...]
Death from overwork suit filed
The bereaved family of a 31-year-old Chinese intern whose death in 2008 was recognized as resulting from overwork has filed a lawsuit against his employer and an agency that supplies foreign trainees to companies in Ibaraki Prefecture. (more…)
Foreign workers needed: Maehara
Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara called Wednesday for appropriate rules to accept more foreign workers ahead of an anticipated severe labor shortage in rapidly aging Japan, warning that China's eventual "supergraying society" could soak up migrant workers. (more…)

text: The 2009 hit film Star Trek garnered many fans, as it became a big hit at the box office. But many new fans may not have realized that it was not the first movie in a new franchise, but rather the eleventh film in a franchise that celebrates its 45th anniversary this year. Tasked with revitalizing a venerable franchise that was on life support (Star Trek: Enterprise, the franchise's fifth television series, had been canceled six years previously, and the tenth film, Star Trek: Nemesis, was a critical and box office dud in 2002), Star Trek actually faced a similar situation encountered by another film 27 years earlier. In many ways, the films are quite similar, and yet, in others, they are diametric opposites; as such, they become, as Mr. Spock might say, fascinating mirrors for each other. Join us as Reel Rumbles heads to the Final Frontier for a battle of galactic proportions: Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan vs. Star Trek.

RTE on Declan GanleyThursday, November 27th, 2008
Am I the only person in Ireland who doesn't think Declan Ganley is the devil incarnate? I am perplexed by the recent Aine Lawlor interview and the Primetime hit job on him tonight. And I use the phrase hit job because that's all it seemed to be. It looked like something Fox News would be proud of.
I have no particular love or hate for Libertas, or for Ganley himself. I'm actually pretty neutral on the whole thing. Yes he campaigned in favour of a No vote at Lisbon, a position with which I agreed. But that's sort of besides the point.
The question that RTE seem to be posing is that Ganley is somehow a different political animal than what we're used to. That his funding is somehow mysterious. That he has connections – horror of horrors – to making money from the US military industrial complex.
Maybe I'm the only one. But I don't see the big deal about this. Maybe someone can enlighten me as to why Ganley's finances should be put under the spotlight, and not those of Fianna Fail, the party that has been in power for the last 11 years and has presided over a cataclysmic property bubble? Or that we have no idea from where Fianna Fail, or Fine Gael for that matter, got most of their funding?
FAS shenanigansThursday, November 27th, 2008
Rumours abound. Serious stuff.
I heard one over the summer about FÁS. It was around the time that Enda Kenny told the Dail that gardaí were investigating the alleged misappropriate use of funds by a senior executive within FÁS.
The rumour was unverified obviously, so it is was basically gossip – and therefore has all of the qualifications that should be attached to any gossip.
The scenario laid out to me was that certain Sunday newspapers were involved in accepting advertising from FÁS. So what you might say. I was told that staff within those newspapers would agree a price with an individual, or individuals, within FÁS. The price might only be known to a small group of people and, critically, the price would be inflated.
A percentage of this overall advertising spend would then be shared, personally, between respective staff in certain Sunday newspapers and staff in FÁS. I guess it would be called kickbacks. Or fraud. That is certain parties within FAS may have been engaged in fraud.
We have already heard of certain allegations around advertising spending – even that an advertising company was set up by staff in FÁS.
Another rumour I heard, widely circulated, was that Mary Hanafin went on trips to Florida.
Senator Shane Ross will have further revelations for us on Sunday, no doubt.

How deep does the FAS rabbit hole go?Tuesday, November 25th, 2008
Maman points out a curiosity about Brian Cowen's relationship to Rody Molloy. It could be true. Cowen is married to Mary Molloy.
In June, Cowen had this to say about Mr Molloy:
"the chief executive of that organisation is a person whom I personally hold in the highest regard, and whose integrity I would defend at all times, Mr Rody Molloy." IT June 26, 2008.
Pretty straightforward. Mr Molloy was appointed director general by Mary Harney, then Minister for Enterprise Trade and Employment, to the position in October 2000. He is married to Noreen. He has been a civil servant since the days of Jack Lynch. He is from Crinkill, Co Offaly. He replaced Dr John Lynch, who went to CIE.
At the same time as Molloy's appointment, Mary Harney appointed future husband Brian Geoghagen to be chairman of FAS.
(An aside: In October 1994, Brian Cowen was forced to sell shares in Arcon Resources, after it emerged they were seeking a mining licence while he was minister with responsibility in that area. Reynolds did not seek his resignation. In April 1996, in the first publication of politicians' interests he said he held no shares, land, property, travel, renumeration or contracts.)
Curiously, Mary Molloy is herself related to the mother of Minister for Integration Conor Lenihan, Ann Lenihan (wife of the late Brian Lenihan).
Given the nature of these things in Irish politics, I can't begin to imagine how deep the rabbit hole goes on this one. With the sums of money involved, this is probably the tip of the iceberg.
Update: Mr Molloy has resigned in disgrace. I can confirm Mary Molloy is not related to Rody.

Monty Python comes to YouTubeWednesday, November 19th, 2008
Rather that issuing take down notices, the lads of Monty Python created their own YouTube channel. Smart guys. Here is their blurb:
For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands.
We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube.
No more of those crap quality videos you've been posting. We're giving you the real thing – HQ videos delivered straight from our vault.
What's more, we're taking our most viewed clips and uploading brand new HQ versions. And what's even more, we're letting you see absolutely everything for free. So there!
But we want something in return.
None of your driveling, mindless comments. Instead, we want you to click on the links, buy our movies & TV shows and soften our pain and disgust at being ripped off all these years.
I look forward to some great clips. Legally.
Mark Cuban suedMonday, November 17th, 2008
Blogger billionaire Cuban is being sued by the SEC over alleged insider trading. An interesting turn of events given his involvement in Sharesleuth.com.
Mr. Cuban stated, "I am disappointed that the Commission chose to bring this case based upon its Enforcement staff's win-at-any-cost ambitions. The staff's process was result-oriented, facts be damned. The government's claims are false and they will be proven to be so."

"We wanted something pretty and soft but still fun. This fit the bill. We used this design for a graduation party invite - changed the background "fifty" to 2013 and the dark "50" to her first initial. I had to play with the font sizes a little to make it look right but in the end it worked very well. We upgraded to the pearlized paper and I was very pleased with how the color and printing looked. The shipping times and customer service were great, too."
"Needed a casual invitation for a 60th birthday party out in the country. The site is like stepping back in time and this fit the bill perfectly. High quality paper, good,clean printing, and shipped on time to an out of state address."
"I ordered these invites for my dad's 60th birthday party and they are perfect. Very classy with a clean, simple, yet sophisticated design. All of the information is easy to see and they are beautifully different than any other invites I have ever sent out."
"I ordered these cards for my Mom's 75th birthday party, and could not be more pleased. The design can be edited to celebrate birthdays other than the big 5-0. The yellow colorway is both cheerful (for a spring celebration) and elegant. My Mom's friends liked the photo of the birthday girl in the back of the invitation -- a cool option offered by Tiny Prints. My Mom loved the swirls in the design so much, she ordered the birthday cake to look just like the party invitations. Great invitations and the party was fabulous too!"
"These were perfect. The guests got the impression that this was a "high class affair", not just some random get-together. Very sleek and modern."

Adrian Sutil is reportedly first in line to replace Michael Schumacher should the German opt to leave F1 at the end of this season.
Schumacher returned to F1 at the start of this season, signing a three-year deal with Mercedes GP.
However, his comeback has failed to reap the rewards many expected from the seven-time World Champ, prompting rumours that he could retire again at the end of the year.
"I've a hunch something fundamental has changed. I believe he is disillusioned and thinking of quitting," BBC pundit Eddie Jordan said of Schumacher in the wake of the Italian GP.
"There are too many indications that now give me the feeling he is reconsidering his commitment to his three-year contract."
And should he opt to leave, another of the BBC's team, Jonathan Legard, says it will pave the way for Force India's Sutil to make the move up the grid.
"Hearing that Sutil is leading contender to replace Schumacher at season's end IF he leaves Mercedes. Sutil out of contract at Force India," Legard wrote on Twitter.

No complaints, it was a excellent administer tour.
A great way to see Gibraltar.
Gibraltar was a surprise, small but full of history, the caves in the rock are well worth it.
Well worth the early start from Malaga - 7am. Ample time to see most sights, have relaxed lunch and duty free shopping. Thoroughly enjoyed the day out.
Good trip. Could have been even better with a different guide. He didn't help a handicapped man in a wheel chair, which made my company of five feel very uncomfotable
This was a very well organised tour, had an excellent day and would definitely recommend it to others. the English guide in Gilbraltar was absolutely informative and entertaining. Really had a good time!
Absolutely fabulous. We took the extra tour of the World War II caves which was the highlight of the tour for us. All guides were very informative. The drive took a long time because of all the pick-ups and drop-offs.

Great tour, loved the monkeys.
For the price and the convenience of transportation directly to and from Málaga, not the mention the guided tour up the Rock, this trip was definitely worth it. We didn't choose to go on the optional dolphin-watching cruise because dolphins simply aren't abundant at this time of year. A lot of other reviews complained about the amount of time it took to get to/from Gibraltar because of having to stop at each hotel along Costa del Sol, but I thought it wasn't too bad. Besides, it was neat seeing all the cities in between Málaga and Gibraltar, not to mention being able to stay alongside the sea for most of the drive. I am recommending this tour to everyone in my study abroad program.
When I phoned to confirm my booking, I was pleasantly surprised by the news we would be picked up at our hotel. We were collected punctually and thoroughly enjoyed the pleasant drive to Gibraltar, enhanced by some interesting facts from our guide. The Rock itself was awesome, matched only by the enthusiasm and wit of the minibus driver who took us right to the top. We also saw the enthralling caves before having an excellent lunch in a local bar. Everything went smoothly from start to finish and we were one happy couple when we were dropped off at the door of our hotel. A memorable trip and well worth the money.
The tour was great they picked us up at the hotel. The guides were kind and knowledgable. The moneys were great the local rock tour guide was great. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. I also took the Granda tour, Julia tours the local group with Annabell mage this vacation really a success.
The tour was good but we spent plenty of time by taking people from many hotels in Costa Del Sol and Marbella.
This trip includes sightseeing of Gibraltar with local guide with a minibus and he was hilarious and extremely entertaining. He spoke English and French. The trip from Malaga to Gibraltar was also good although there was last week change of the starting hour from 8.00 am to 7.00 am. But there was more than two hours free time in Gibraltar which gave us a touch of slowness (given the size of the town) which is often so much needed on such trips.
We took the Gibraltar tour that left from Malaga. The original departure time was listed as 8 am but the instructions do say to call within 24 hours to confirm your reservation. It was good thing I did call because I was told that the new departure time was 7 am! So my wife and I walked to the pickup location - a bit over a half mile from our hotel - and we did leave pretty promptly around 7 am. The downside is that our bus stopped at easily 10, maybe more, hotels along the way (pretty much every beach town along the coast to Gibraltar) so we didn't arrive to Gibraltar until about 11:30. Driving ourselves would probably be somewhere under 3 hours...but, by taking a tour you don't have to hassle with "where do I park?", "how do I get there?", etc. I'm not sure why we had to walk over a 1/2 mile to the pickup zone yet we went right into the heart of all these beach towns and seemed to pick people up right at each of there hotels.
Once at Gibraltar we had from 11:30 - 1:00 on our own to explore the town, main street, grab a snack, etc. At 1:00 we met up with our Gibraltar tour guide (not the bus tour guide) and then in a smaller van he drove about 12 of us around Gibraltar and gave some historical insights and then drove us up higher into the rock itself. Ultimately we parked near St. Michael's cave, visited that, got some nice views across the Straits to see Africa and some other nice views looking down onto the town, and then by 3:00 he drove us back into the main town. We then had from 3:00 to 4:00 on our own before having to be back at the bus to depart. We had some nice scenic views but there was not nearly time to relax and explore the town. In the 3-4 time my wife and I stopped for lunch and that was about it. I'd love to have more time to walk around and explore so my main critique is that if we could get there quicker and have from 11-2 to on our own that would be nice, or maybe from 3-5 before getting back on the bus. We got back at 7:30 pm.

Cuba: Sea levels to rise more than 30 in. by 2100
"Train to Atlantis". Santa Lucia Beach, Camagüey province, Cuba. Photo by: © Innoxiuss
Excerpts; from AP
Cuban scientists calculate that median sea levels around the Caribbean nation will rise more than 30 inches (75 centimeters) by the end of the century due to global climate change…
"Right now it is urgent to preserve mangroves, coral reefs, sea grass and sand beaches. Each of these ecosystems is a natural barrier to defend the coasts from the impact of climate change. If they deteriorate, the consequences will be worse."Government scientist Marcelino Hernandez warned…

Cuban coastline: Retreat up to 2.5 meters
By The Watchers
Most of the 400 beaches of Cuba's territory are affected by erosion with a receding coastline estimated at 1.2 meters per year, according to a study by the Institute of Oceanology of the island.
The research ratified "the widespread nature of the Cuban beach erosion" due to phenomena such as sea level rise, sand mining, construction of buildings on natural dunes and incorrectlocation of piers.
According to the head of the Coastal Processes Department of Oceanology Institute, José Luis Juanes, it is estimated that the retreat of the coastline is 1.2 meters per year, although there are reports of up to 2.5 meters or more in some places the country. The specialist noted that the rate of retreat of the coastline in Cuba is similar to that reported elsewhere in the Caribbean, and is consistent with a global process that affects countries like Mexico, United States, Dominican Republic and Spain, among others.
The research, conducted between 2009 and 2010, also used to update the archive Cuban Beaches whose national inventory increased from 346 to 400. Scientists evaluated "holistically" to 41 of these beaches and found signs of erosion in 90 percent of them.
Research on the processes of erosion in Cuban beaches continue to grow and their results and contribute decisively to the adoption of measures to address and protect the country from the damage caused by rising sea level. (poleshift.ning)
Coastal erosion is a national and regional concern in the Caribbean, as well as in other regions.
The causes are related to natural phenomena, such as hurricanes and storms, and man-induced effects, such as sand mining and unwise building practices. Other long-term causes relate to climate change and climate variation, e.g. sea level rise and changes in hurricane frequency and intensity.
The problem is magnified in the Caribbean where tourism, a vital industry, is also dependent on beaches. As a result there is considerable national and regional interest focused on tourism beaches, and this is where the limited funding available is often directed. However, many communities face the same problems of erosion and there is a need to focus on what actions communities can take to reduce and mitigate the erosion problem. (UNESCO)
Cuba has 3,735 miles of coastline. This is more than any other island in the Caribbean. It has 7,848 sq. kilometers of species-rich mangrove swamp and its inland waters contain 22 or more endemic species of fresh and brackish water fish. Much of its coastline is surrounded by smaller islands and lagoons within large, relatively unspoiled coral reefs, which due to environmental degradation are a quickly vanishing source of biodiversity in the whole Caribbean Sea.

Definitions for tiberˈtaɪ bər
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word tiber
Random House Webster's College Dictionary
Ti•berˈtaɪ bər(n.)
a river in central Italy, flowing through Rome into the Mediterranean. 244 mi. (395 km) long.
Category: Geography (places)
Ref: Italian, Tevere.
Princeton's WordNet
Tiber, Tevere(noun)
a river of central Italy; flows through Rome to the Tyrrhenian Sea
The river that flows through Rome in Italy.
Origin: From Tiberis.
The Tiber is the third-longest river in Italy, rising in the Apennine Mountains in Emilia-Romagna and flowing 406 kilometres through Umbria and Lazio to the Tyrrhenian Sea. It drains a basin estimated at 17,375 square kilometres. The river has achieved lasting fame as the main watercourse of the city of Rome, founded on its eastern banks. The river rises at Mount Fumaiolo in central Italy and flows in a generally southerly direction past Perugia and Rome to meet the sea at Ostia. Popularly called flavus, in reference to the yellowish colour of its water, the Tiber has heavily advanced at the mouth by about 3 km since Roman times, leaving the ancient port of Ostia Antica 6 km inland. However, it does not form a proportional delta, owing to a strong north-flowing sea current close to the shore, to the steep shelving of the coast, and to slow tectonic subsidence.
The Nuttall Encyclopedia
a river of Italy celebrated in ancient Roman history, rises in the Apennines, in the province of Arezzo, Tuscany; rapid and turbid in its upper course, but navigable 100 m. upwards from its mouth; flows generally in a S. direction, and after a course of about 260 m. enters the Mediterranean about 15 m. below Rome.

The West Detention Center is located in Belle Glade, Florida, forty-five miles west of PBSO Headquarters in West Palm Beach. Originally constructed in 1983, the West Detention Center has undergone several
expansions, the most recent being a 72 million dollar expansion/ renovation project that was completed on April 9, 2011. The facility houses all custody levels to include minimum, medium,
and maximum custody inmates and has a total bed capacity of 999 inmates. The facility is staffed with one hundred and seventy-nine corrections professionals of various ranks and titles.
The West Detention Center is a program oriented facility with the majority of its housing being operated under the concept of direct supervision. Inmates are encouraged to
participate in various program activities such as the "Another Way" Drug educational program, religious services, and self-improvement educational programs.
Through ongoing partnerships with various community providers, the facility also provides reentry services to assist those inmates who are transitioning back into the community.
Another notable feature of the West Detention Center is its video visitation program. This program allows for the visiting of inmates via live video feeds from one of our public visitation centers.

Man robbed by four men in his hotel room
A man told Madison police he was robbed by four men inside his hotel room Wednesday.
The man said he was staying at the Super 8 at 4765 Hayes Road on Madison's east side when the men robbed him of his cash at gunpoint.
Police said the suspects had been in the man's room earlier in the day with his permission and the robbery was not random.
The victim gave police the license plate of the suspect vehicle which was later stopped by Sun Prairie police. The driver of the car was held for questioning.
