text: Thousands Moon Amtrak Trains Californians get behind showing some behind By Mary Papenfuss, Newser Staff Posted Jul 12, 2010 3:50 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (8) (Newser) – Cheeky Californians got behind a local tradition again yesterday by mooning Amtrak passengers traveling through the town of Laguna Niguel. It was the 31st year for the "mooning Amtrak" event that supposedly began with a barroom bet in 1979 offering a beer to anyone who mooned a passing train. But the event is getting so big, with crowds up to 10,000, that the town warned visitors this year to stay away, announcing: "No to crack," reports the BBC. But the crackdown was blamed on a "stuffy" anti-mooning mayor and the event went off without a hitch.

Efren Navarro and Kole Calhoun drove in runs in the sixth inning, and the Los Angeles Angels overcame Drew Smyly's early dominance for a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night in Anaheim.

Women Are Struggling with Set-Up Barriers
Byline: By Marcella Maxwell
A new report reveals a big drop in the number of Welsh women starting up new businesses. Chwarae Teg chief executive Marcella Maxwell asks what can be done to encourage women to fulfil their potential as entrepreneurs
THIS week an authoritative survey revealed that the number of women involved in enterprise in Wales has fallen for the first time in six years.
Disturbingly, the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) study - a joint research project between the University of Glamorgan and Cardiff University - found that there has been a 20% decrease in entrepreneurial activity among women, and that the gender gap between male and female entrepreneurial activity has widened in the last couple of years.
The report's authors concluded that if we had the same proportion of women involved in new business ventures as men, then almost 30,000 new businesses would have been created in Wales last year.
It is our view that this would have made a significant impact on wealth creation and helped reduce economic inactivity, both key objectives of the Welsh Assembly Government's new consultation strategy, Wales: A Vibrant Economy.
The findings of the GEM study reinforce Chwarae Teg's view that much remains to be done to increase the rate of female entrepreneurial activity in Wales, which currently stands at about a third of male activity.
Chwarae Teg believes that, given the emphasis on promoting enterprise among women in Wales, these latest findings are a cause for serious concern.
Women have the potential to make a significant contribution to the economy through business but it is clear that barriers continue to exist that make it difficult for women to fulfil their economic potential.
An obvious barrier is the dilemma faced by all working mothers; how to juggle family commitments with the long hours necessary in the early stages of setting up a new business. Responsibility for looking after children or arranging childcare lies with 80% of women, compared with 17% of men.
Another key factor for the gap identified between male and female business start-up rates is the ability to access finance. Chwarae Teg has recently undertaken research into the continued difficulty women have - both perceived and actual - in accessing finance. …

Peer Counseling
The Peer Counseling Program was developed at the request of students who felt a need to learn how to help their friends who were struggling with problems while in college. The Peers are selected each spring following an application and interview process. These concerned campus leaders receive focused training in the early fall and then participate in an ongoing monthly training program throughout the year. The Peer Counselors have been instrumental in assisting many students on the undergraduate and law school campuses to find help with problems experienced by fellow students. If you are interested in applying to be a Peer Counselor, speak to a student who is already on the team or to one of the professional counselors.

Says the man who thinks a girl can get boned and still be a virgin. They saw Jesus. If you wasn't so hard put to defend your filthy faith, you could see the truth.
You may have no truth, and that I agree with. And you have just demonstrated you have never had the spirit. Which would explain your logic, or lack of. No wonder you don't get it.

Says a man who justifies his sick God screwing his daughter.
I'm sure there are some Mormons who could say the same about you.
I views of Jesus and his gospel comes from real scripture, unlike yours. Your faith is the source of my filth, and forces me to speak the truth about the perversion that is called Mormonism. If my language is filthy, it is because your leaders and teachings are filthy. It would be a sin on my part to say otherwise.
My faith is actually based on what Jesus taught, and doesn't come from the imagination of a sex pervert. God never screwed his daughter, and he certainly didn't threaten to kill Smith if he didn't marry other men's wives or screw teenagers. Those are the claims of a sex pervert wanting to justify his sickness. But you keep putting the hope of your salvation in that pig.

You're a fricking clown. You better do some real reseach into the marrying age of jewish girls 2000 years ago. You better do some research into Mary's age when she became Joseph's wife.
Your preoccupation with making slanderous remarks of older men and younger girls, pin pointing some and ignoring others doing the same is quite disturbing. Do you know that?
And spirits don't have flesh? Then explain to us all how two angels(messengers) and the Lord God when visiting Abraham, came with bodies, clothed as Abraham, then ate and drank with him before his tent? They could have did it with voices if they really have no substance. The Lord could have put abraham to sleep and spoke to him by voice. The fact that you wish others to belive that beings with no substance, would rather appear in bodies of flesh to communicate then to just speak as a voice makes no sense really. Get it?

See, here's somemore of your out right lying. Don't you ever tire of being such a self perpetuating liar at times eh? I never said Mary was a virgin after having intercourse with God. I never said any such thing. You're such a self deluded liar and that is so sad.
Your self deluded view of what a Christian is, is to have the filthiest, most derogatory, degenerative cussing vocabulary that you think is possible to have within yourself. That is how you think your god teaches you to be and speak and you are sadly correct, that "your god" wants you to remain as you speak :)

I said no such thing.
I am not a Mormon so they would have no comment.
The gospel you view isn't of Jesus. Jesus didn't teach to resort to the filthy, dark, demented, perverted speech you use day in and day out here.
Do you know that you and NuMu are the only two in these threads that obsess to a dark perverted degree about older men having sex with young girls? Do you know that? Do you know that you and NuMu give all the appearences of liking to speak of such a sordid topic? That it's actually taken on a perverse tone from you both?
And what's worse is you both obviously enjoy speaking about the topic in the crudest, filthist, most foul thought of language you can think of to discuss it in. Did you know that of yourself and NuMu?

IS not
WAS not
CAN not
BE a MAN. You ***F.A.L.S.E.L.Y. C.L.A.I.M.E.D***

is he ***L.O.O.K.S. LIKE G.O.D.***
And SOMEBODY PHYSICALLY WRESTLED with JACOB the whole night HAD a BODY: because
hadn't COME to EARTH and RECEIVED a BODY yet.
From some Jewish site remarking on the HEBREW ORIGINAL:
"The Hebrew word for angel (malakh) is actually not used in the story. The adversary re-names Jacob as "Israel," which is a play upon the word meaning "struggled with Elohim," and Jacob names the place of the struggle Peni-el, "meaning 'I have seen Elohim face-to-face and I came out alive.' "

"2 And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.
23 And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.
24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled ***A MAN*** with him until the breaking of the day.
25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, HE TOUCHED the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as HE WRESTLED with HIM.
26 And HE SAID, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And HE SAID unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 And HE SAID, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
29 And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel:***for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.***
31 And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.
32 Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacobs thigh in the sinew that shrank."

Indeed YOU ADMIT YOURSELF:
****to the *M*A*N* who NAMED JACOB, ISRAEL****
YOU pray to ANOTHER 'god'
ONE who CAN NOT WRESTLE with JACOB
*THEREFORE YOU DO NOT PRAY to the GOD of ISRAEL*
Know what's hilarious? Not two chapters later, the Lord is talking to the man Jacob, who actually assaulted God, who had a physical body: and wrestled with him all night trying to hold him so he wouldn't leave him until he, God, promised, he wouldn't let his brother Esau kill him over a family squabble.
The God with whom he wrestled and whom he was named after: Elohim - REMINDED the man Israel that it WAS HE who WRESTLED with JACOB, that NIGHT.

Joe vs. Muhammed:
1.followers of both prophets claim these scriptures are miracles since their authors were the most simple and uneducated of men.
2.Both prophets claim of having angel visitations, and of receiving divine revelation to restore pure religion to the earth again.
3.Both prophets created new scripture which borrowed heavily from the Bible, but with a substantially new spin.
4.· As a part of their new scriptural spin, both prophets saw themselves as prophesied in scripture, and both saw themselves as a continuation of a long line of Biblical prophets. Mohammed saw himself as a continuation of the ministry of Moses and Jesus. Joseph Smith saw himself as a successor to Enoch, Melchizedek, Joseph and Moses. Joseph Smith actually wrote himself into his own version of the Bibleby name.
5. Both prophets held up their own scripture as superior to the Bible. Mohammed claimed that the Koran was a perfect copy of the original which was in heaven.
6. Both prophets held up their own scripture as superior to the Bible. Mohammed claimed that the Koran was a perfect copy of the original which was in heaven.
7. Both ultimately set up their own towns as model societies.
8. Immediately after the death of Muhammad and Smith, a fight broke out from among the "faithful converts" as to who would succeed Muhammad and Smith. Both groups were plunged into irreparable division that has endured ever since. Islam and Mormonism both have squabbles among themselves as to who is the one true splinter group of their prophet!
I just wish when God sends his Angel to give all these "prophets" his new and EXACT word as it's found in heaven he would make it the same Exact word of God for each of them. huh......
Because one of these Religions is wrong. Or could it be both were false prophets as the Bible talks so much about?

Pure OWNAGE of the 'God has no substance' snake-handlers at church.
How a man could WRESTLE with ANOTHER *MAN* as STATED REPEATEDLY -
THEN HAVE that MAN
IDENTIFY HIMSELF as the GOD who is SPEAKING - LATER -
in the
***PIVOTAL MOMENT OF THE EXISTENCE of the NATION of ISRAEL***
***when the N.A.M.E. I.S.R.A.E.L. was F.O.R.G.E.D.***
-then come in here SCREAMING and RAILING and ON and ON; about how THERE is NO MAN named GOD
THERE is NO MAN named GOD with a BODY
it's disturbed thought. It's mental illness and it's what leads them to get into those churches and molest like maniacs.
If the things they think about led to moral clarity why are they frenetically taking down every mention of God from the places they govern?
If the things they think about led to moral clarity why are they constantly being revealed as having molested another dozen children? HOMOSEXUALLY MOLESTING THEM.
If the things they think about led to moral clarity why are even their SCHOOL TEACHERS child molesting animals?
These aren't fundie marriages 'till death do they part like Amish or Quaker or L.D.S. fundies - they have at least the guidelines of ancient Israelite theocratic/legal systems, which had to compete in their, ORIGINAL time, with the civilizational cultures around them:
the MOLESTINGS they do are pure and simple the RAVINGS of the UTTERLY UNPREPARED CHILD ADULT which has had NO sociological discipline at ALL.
It's the RIVER of FILTH seen by Nephi, it's the TIME when ALL THINGS seem to them to be in commotion, and they have come unglued like a herd of pigs with evil spirits cast into them: PLUNGING into SUICIDAL behavior, SQUEALING the WHOLE WAY.
It's really funny from the standpoint of the Mormons, and Amish, Quaker fundie types, the real devout ascetic arms of Christianity wherever these CROSS DRESSING QUEENS haven't MOLESTED EVERTHING in SIGHT.
Because when the Lord makes a bunch of degenerates go insane, you know it's coming onto the leading edge of the end, of their hegemony.
They're as possessed by the spirit to MOLEST as ANY GROUP of PEOPLE in the HISTORY of MANKIND:
they can't stop DIVORCING
they can't stop MOLESTING
they can't stop COMMITTING ADULTERY
they can't stop STEALING
they can't stop MONEY GRUBBING with that 24/7/365 MONEY LUNGE,
they can't stop SCAMMING trying to STEAL EACH OTHER'S WEALTH through passage of LAWS meant to SEIZE other people's WEALTH:
it's all they do: M.O.L.E.S.T. and dream
of ROAMING the EARTH,
MARUAUDING like LIONS.
We'll see how it shakes out.

In order to reach the Shannon limit, researchers have found more efficient error control coding schemes. However, the computational complexity of such error control coding schemes is a barrier to implementing them. Recently, researchers have found that bioinspired analog network decoding is a good approach with better combined power/speed performance than its digital counterparts. However, the lack of CAD (computer aided design) tools makes the analog implementation quite time consuming and error prone. Meanwhile, the performance loss due to the nonidealities of the analog circuits has not been systematically analyzed. Also, how to organize analog circuits so that the nonideal effects are minimized has not been discussed. In designing

Massive Australian Precambrian/Cambrian Impact Structure
The Massive Australian Precambrian/Cambrian Impact Structure also known as MAPCIS is a proposed impact structure based upon arguments presented by Daniel P. Connelly at Geological Society of America meetings.[1] Its center is located approximately equidistant between Uluru (Ayers Rock) and Mount Conner in Australias' Northern Territory. A hypothetical outermost ring is 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) in diameter is claimed to be the result of undefined far field stresses. The crater itself is smaller at approximately 600 km (370 mi) in diameter. Connelly argues that the age of this hypothetical impact is approximately 545 mya which puts it near the end of the Neoproterozoic Era.[2] If confirmed as an impact crater, it would be the largest on earth.[1]
This proposed impact structure is listed as Class 3 Suspected, in David Rajmon's Impact Database. In the Impact Database, David Rajmon specifically noted that this proposed impact structure is highly speculative and based upon numerous unfounded interpretations, including the impact origin of the pseudotachylites and alleged ejecta deposits.[3] It is not listed as a confirmed impact structure in the Planetary and Space Science Centre's Earth Impact Database,[4] as only Class 0 confirmed impacts are listed on the site.

Discovering a Hidden Industry
Geiger, Greg, The World and I
Advanced ceramics are the enabling materials of a silent revolution that's enhancing our quality of life in numerous ways.
One of the oldest materials known to humankind is clay. People of ancient cultures discovered that this material, when soft, can be molded into various shapes, but it hardens irreversibly when heated by fire. And they took advantage of these properties to make various types of utensils for holding water or grain and cooking food. The earliest known functional pottery made in this manner dates back to 10,000 B.C. Thus began the opening chapter in the history of materials that we call ceramics. It is a history that has grown richer with time.
For most people today, the word ceramics evokes images of coffee mugs, dinner plates, figurines, and decorative pottery. Some may add brick, floor and wall tile, and certain plumbing fixtures to the list. These products illustrate what are known as traditional or silicate-based ceramics. On the other hand, over the past five decades, a new class of ceramics--called advanced ceramics--has emerged, playing a major role in novel and exciting applications. Yet, development of the advanced ceramics industry has gone largely unnoticed by the general public, prompting some to call it the "hidden industry."
Applications of advanced ceramics span such diverse fields as medicine, aerospace, automotive, environmental protection, military defense, and fiber-optic communication. For instance, NASA's space shuttle program would not be possible without the 34,000 lightweight, reusable ceramics tiles that protect the shuttle from temperatures up to 2,300 [degrees] F as it reenters the atmosphere. Advanced ceramics are also vital for electronic products such as personal computers and cell phones. And these materials are being used to make automotive catalytic converters, which help convert noxious hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide into harmless carbon dioxide and water.
In 1996, the U.S. market for advanced ceramics was estimated to be $6.3 billion. This figure is expected to rise to $9.2 billion by the year 2001.
What are ceramics?
The word ceramic can be traced back to the Creek term keramos, meaning "potter's clay" or "pottery," and keramos in turn is related to an older Sanskrit root that means "to burn." Thus the early Greeks used the term to mean "burned stuff" or "burned earth," when referring to products obtained through the action of fire on earthly materials.
Ceramics constitute one of three large classes of solid materials used by engineers. The other two are metals and polymers. In chemical terms, ceramics are inorganic, nonmetallic materials that are typically produced by the high-temperature firing of naturally occurring minerals or artificially processed powders. Ceramics are generally crystalline in nature and include compounds between elements such as aluminum and oxygen (alumina, [Al.sub.2][O.sub.3]), silicon and nitrogen (silicon nitride, [Si.sub.3][N.sub.4]), and silicon and carbon (silicon carbide, SIC).
Advanced ceramics are variously described as technical ceramics, engineering ceramics, or (in Japan) fine ceramics. Whatever the name, they are far superior to traditional ceramics in terms of their mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, or magnetic properties, and their resistance to corrosion or oxidation. Advanced ceramics are also superior to metals and plastics in many of these properties. In fact, if it were not for the high melting point and corrosion resistance of ceramics, the production of metal and alloy products we use today would not be possible. Among the disadvantages of ceramics are their brittleness and relatively poor tensile strength.
There are several categories of advanced ceramics. They include structural ceramics; ceramic coatings; chemical processing and environmental ceramics; and electrical or electronic ceramics. Structural ceramics are useful in applications such as industrial wear parts (bearings and dies), biomedical parts (bone and dental implants), cutting tools (drills and end mills), armor (bulletproof vests and military equipment), and engine components (turbine rotors and valves). …

Bubble Games and Activities - Over 30 fun things to do with bubbles
Sidewalk Chalk Fun - 30 great activities and games to play with Sidewalk Chalk.
Water Balloon Ideas - Giant list of over 50 activities and games for kids to do with Water Balloons.
Scavenger Hunt
Scavenger hunts are a great birthday party activity and almost any age group can play. There are many variations on how to set up, play and run a scavenger hunt and we have all of our favorites listed. A Scavenger Hunt takes teams of kids (or adults) around the neighborhood looking for items from their item list. Teams will race each other to find the funny items and whoever finds all of their items first wins. We've listed lots of fun varieties of scavenger hunt party activities for birthday parties which include neighborhood hunts (2 free lists to print out!), 8 mall scavenger hunts, animal shelter helper, holiday and nature scavenger hunts. FREE lists to print out!
This may be the only birthday activity a group of tweens or teens needs for their birthday party! (Except lots of food!) Find some fun CD's and let the kids take turns singing to their favorite music. Usually the worse you are at singing the more fun it is, so everyone can have a good time! Tip: Check eBay for used Karaoke machines and CD's.
Mystery Dinner
Fun and crazy birthday idea for older kids. The kids order dinner off of a cryptic menu are served dinner - but don't know what they have ordered until the food arrives. Crazy fun and kids love it! Directions and sample menu for the mystery dinner party.
Making Birthday DVD's
Set up a video camera at the birthday party and let the craziness begin! Have the kids put on a talent show or lip sync to their favorite songs. Teens and tweens love to be in front of the camera and this is a super way to have them show off. Edit the tape and make a DVD for everyone to take home with them.
Petting Zoo
Hire a small petting zoo to come to your backyard and set up all sorts of animals for the birthday party. There are fun activities for all the birthday party guests! Some even have miniature pony rides that can set up in your backyard! Fun for all types of birthday themes - cowboy, western, barnyard, animal lovers, etc.
Pillow Cases
Great activity for birthday sleepovers! Buy new pillowcases and wash them before the party. Set out fabric paints and permanent markers to decorate the pillowcases. Have everyone sign each other's on the back with the date of the birthday party.
One of the best activities for a birthday party! They now come in every shape and color that you can imagine so finding one to go with your party birthday theme is easy! Check our Piñata Page for full details on this fun activity!
Pony rides
Pony and miniature horse rides add excitement to a birthday party. They can complement almost any birthday party theme - cowboy, western, animal lover, zoo, Cinderella, circus, parade etc. The horses can be decorated to fit your theme with colorful ribbons in their tails and manes and some will even paint them pink and give them a horn to look like a unicorn or my little pony. Check for availability in your area on the Internet or phone book. Pricing varies throughout the US - pony rides average around $175 for 1 pony for 1 hour and about half of that for additional ponies or hours.
Fun activity and birthday party gift for kids to take home. Buy T-shirts (I've used Hanes T-shirts in a package or bought them as low as $2 each at craft stores) and wash and dry them before the party. Set out fabric markers and fabric paints to use for decorating the shirts. Iron on letters are fun in all sorts of styles. Mix and match different styles to spell out their name or a funny saying. Tip: Use large grocery sacks, cardboard or poster board to place inside the shirt so the paint doesn't bleed through to the back of the shirt. Teens and Tweens really enjoy making and wearing these shirts.
A good activity for birthday sleepovers or a longer party so the kids can print out pictures. Give each party guest a scrapbook. Set out scrapbook items so they can create a page about their friends and the party.
Tye Dye T-shirts
Fun to do at birthday parties. Tie Dye kits can be found at craft and discount stores or you can buy Dye in little boxes at the grocery store in the laundry section. Wash and dry shirts before the birthday party. Give each guest a shirt and a bunch of rubber bands and have them take sections of the shirt and wrap rubber bands around it until the band is tight. Explain to them that everywhere there is a tight rubber band the shirt will stay white. Follow directions package, rinse out shirts and hang to dry outside.
Funky Flip Flop Craft - Making funky flip flops is a great party activity, craft and party favor! Girls of all ages love them ... kids, tweens and teens! Get full directions and pictures on our funky flip flop craft page.

Call your boyfriend and see if he still has the box for the dye. There should be some sort of info number that you can call on it. If he doesn't have it any longer, go to a store and copy the number off of a new box. Then call them and tell them your problem. They will probably be able to assist you.

If somehow there is no number, then I guess I'd just cut my nails as short as possible. And wear nail polish until the dye wore off. Shouldn't take that long for the dye to wear off or for the nails to grow out enough so that you can trim off the black part.

If none of those sounds good, then the last thing I might try is a haircolor remover, which they might sell at the same store that sells the dye. Or something from the laundry aisle called Color Remover, though I've never heard of anyone using that on nails.

Good luck.
Take drastic action, chop them off with an axe.LOL
if it has come off your hands but is still just on your nails...cover it up with nail polish. or see a manicurist. they might have ideas.
Patience, patience. These things take time.
tsp, pick it off........or an overly enthusiastic boyfriend

It's sickening. I left Ireland in 2008 as I couldn't take any more of the shameless carry on of its so called leaders.
"The central bank slashed it's economic forecast for Ireland and warned that Mr Lenihan's spending cuts in the 2011 budget will have to go beyond 3 billion euro planned"
Yet you chooses not to mention that the central bank projects growth of 0.8% for 2011. Unimpressive certainly, but considering that 3 billion+ euro will be take out of the economy it shows the Ireland has stabalised and will recover. That wouldn't suit your article, would it?
Not only is Mr Bertie Ahern not jobless, he has several jobs. As well as his role as a sports writer, he is actually still a sitting member of the Irish Parliament (the Dail). He represents my constituency in fact, and for this he is paid a handsome salary and extremely generous unvouched expenses (Irish MPs are still amongst the highest paid in the world). As a former PM, he also has a car and driver. When he wrote his autobiography last year, he managed to avoid paying tax on his earnings from the book by declaring himself an 'artist'.
He says he was not paid for participating in the advert, but did it for 'a laugh'. Isn't it nice to know he can lark around in this manner when his country is bankrupt largely due to his own failure as a leader. The man is a joke, but I don't hear many people laughing here in Ireland. They are too busy worrying about their futures and those of their children.
the Central Bank says it expects Gross Domestic Product, the country's overall economic output, to grow by 0.2% this year, down from its previous predictions of a 0.8% growth in GDP.
[...] Ireland's Former Leader Squats In Cupboard For TV Ad [...]
The man has no shame, dignity of office means nothing to this guy.
Pity the Irish Papers failed to bother supporting the voices of irish kids. This country is in a mess run by a pack of egets / idiots...

[...] It's such a shambles, even the Wall Street Journal feels the need to comment. Read their thoughts here. [...]
Ahearn looks like he's taking a c***p. He should do, as he is full of it.The country is regulated up to it's neck. It became impossible to trade in this country after this government implemented regulation after regulation. e.g to make Bio Diesel here in Ireland you must first obtain a licience to collect waste cooking oil from the various places using the product, then you must advise the revenue and seek thier permission and pay 34 cent per ltr which equates to €1.51 per gallon. This is just for one product which does no harm to the enviroment unlike the imported diesel we use on a daily basis.This is only example i'm sure thats enough for the readers.This government look very scared to me viewing them on the nation channels. They look lost for words and thus no idea. But they will walk away with the dosh and all will be forgotton until history is read in fuure years a we will be christened as the waster age.
The man has no shame. A former Prime Minister, currently a sitting member of parliament earning a generous salary and a pension. This is a man who could not understand why those who talk down the economy did not go and commit suicide. And he is still considered a top level speaker by the Washington Speakers Bureau. http://www.washingtonspeakers.com/speakers/speaker.cfm?SpeakerId=6261#
A recent invitation for him to speak in one of his home towns was withdrawn following a public protest. Students at a college rebelled when Mr Ahern was offered an "Honary" position. And he is lives in cloud cuckoo land, aspiring to be the next President. Talk about having a thick skin.
Ireland disgusts me. I couldn't tolerate the country and these idiots anymore. What's sad is that majority of sheep left there think this is perfectly acceptable. They have proved it time and time again at the polls. Irish people you are the laughing stock of the world, again and again. You sit back and allow your country to be destroyed by these clowns yet you don't even protest beyond the pub. I for one will never return to that God forsaken country again, stupid Irish people!!
When Haughey came to power in 1979. He infected this country and the cornerstones of power.
Everyone of his cabinet ministers in his three terms in office have nearly been involved in every scandal.
These scandals which came out later all showed how the public services, Banks and more than anything the Property sector, in particular in regards to rezoning of land- were all corrupted. Business became- brown envelopes and favours. A mafioso type structure.
The cornerstones of power had been indoctrinated or infected with a certain way of doing business. A corrupt way of doing business, that now i'm afraid we are all paying the price for.
Fianna Fail are corrupt money and land grabbers. We had Garret Fitzgerald- a true statesman, intelligent and honest as the day is long (who got one term) and instead we choose to vote in a crook in Haughey for three terms and a dog food salesman in Albert Reynolds. Much the same as the great people of ireland decided to give Bertie Aherne for 3 terms. And now they are complaining. I'm afraid ye made ye're own bed whoever voted for him.
In Fianna Gael or labour, at least you have a certain code of honesty, if little else. Let's hope the people of ireland stop voting for mischevious rogues and chancers with a glint in their eyes who are publicans sons and start voting for honesty and integrity.
What happened to such a once great and proud Ireland. The 'Dumb American' soundbite has well and truly been replaced by the 'Dumb Irish'. A joke that seems to echo throughout the world right now. How can you people vote for such idiots? How can you people not get out and fight against what these bast**** are doing to you. How on earth could you all just sit back and become such a joke? Fighting Irish...not
@Des Creedon You Irish deserve everything you get. You voted for successive FF governments, and you dont do anything now. Can almost hear your leaders laugh at you all
Greece riot in the streets and demand their voices to be heard. Iceland kick out their government and prosecute their leaders. Irish idiots get drunk and say nothing lol What a country, thank God I am not a European poodle
First of All as an Irish Person I agree 100% with JP The Irish are a bunch of Cowardy B***ards who sold out the country. And Des Creedon you are 100% correct but it goes right back to de valera. The Irish are uneducated Sheep they will do what they are told SHAME ON THE IRISH
DeanS Because when the Dumb Irish voted away Ireland under Lisbon they lost that right the dumb c**ts. And now everything is be run from Europe and The Irish Government are puppets
who still line there pockets and stick the Fingers up at the Irish. If the Real IRA want something to do they should Start with all the Traitors in Deal Eireann never minded england
Paddy, you are advocating people should support mindless thugs who blow up innocent people. If you are a reflection of Ireland today, I'm not surprised the country is in such a mess. By the way, those traitors were voted in repeatedly throughout the years so you pretty much get what you vote for
Paddy are you drunk?
@judy. Yes exactly. I'm wondering what your point is to me? As it is much the same point i'm making.
Unfortunately, it's a democracy. Much like the US getting George W ahead of Al Gore.
You end up with the politicans that a majority of people vote in. People who believe in a wink and nod type of government rather than real governance.
It's a simple concept.
This problem is gone beyond politicans. We need leading economists to help. We need to look at successful models from other countries. I think we also need to look at what Iceland are doing and see if we can try any of these politicans and bankers but in particular the ex financial regulator for not doing their jobs properly.
I assume Paddy is like Stephen Colbert, pretending to be crazy and shouting cluelessly at the world. Otherwise he is a moron of the highest proportions with the spelling and grammar of an angry child. Ireland is embarressed by our last few leaders but as a largely libertarian society we each try to get on with things while manitaining our families and our sense of humour. There'll be a general election early next year if not sooner and the current bunch will be evicted from the government. We'll muddle through and Ireland will prosper again. No thanks to the politicians... or muppets like Paddy.
Iris politics needs a revolution or the same crap will be repeated again and again, unfortunately for us Irish Fianna Fail is a curse that we have had to put up since our civil war. The wink wink nod nod belief always manifests itself in new and depressing ways each time they have got into power, which is nearly every term. Brian Cowen was elected as a TD on the strength of his deceased father, ah sure Brian's a cut of his father, sure didn't he help me get planning permission etc etc. Backyard politics personified by bulshitters.
But things are changing, the penny is slowly dropping for the majority of the nation and I do believe that Fianna Fail will be wiped out at the next general election and will take them a long time to recover, and as for Ahern for president, not a hope you grubby little fiend.

@Paddy, don't embarrass yourself and your people with such an idiotic statement. If you haven't anything intelligent to say, don't say anything at all. Please don't reply, for I fear you will embarrass yourself and Irish people even more. IRA....goodness me, I thought Ireland had passed all of that nonsense, seemingly there are still fools lingering on. Paddy, don't be the stereotype
@ Des who wrote "This problem is gone beyond politicans. We need leading economists to help. We need to look at successful models from other countries. I think we also need to look at what Iceland are doing and see if we can try any of these politicans and bankers but in particular the ex financial regulator for not doing their jobs properly." Well said Des, but sadly I doubt it will ever happen in Ireland. We will always be sheep that answer our masters without question. We will watch as they destroy our lives and those of our future generations without so much as a whimper. Which is why I am leaving for Canada soon and I doubt I will ever return. Im ashamed to be Irish, deeply ashamed at what we have become
when Bertie couldn't explain away his financil history he went on TV and cried. He was going through a marital seperation, and he was having a hard time living on a ministers salary he announced on the airways. what happened next election? Fina Fail were returned to power. As a nation we are gutless. We didn't stand up to the Catholic Church, we re-elect corrupt politicians, and we blame every one else for our own mistakes.
God save us all if Paddy is the mindset of modern Ireland
I bet Paddy is one of those types regularly seen wearing football shirts, white socks, chanting derogatory terrorist songs and still living with his parents. Paddy this is a serious discussion sunshine, go back to your x-box and crayons. You might want to study 'English For Dummies' also. Actually I doubt Paddy is Irish at all, possibly just pretending to be the drunken Paddy. As for Ireland, its obvious the Irish government is a puppet for the banks, and I wouldn't be surprised if bailing out the bankers was in reality designed to prevent an investigation should the banks be shut down. Who knows what names would be revealed!
@ Denis...Very true, I'm ashamed to be Irish. We deserve everything we get, a stupid, spineless people
I have read alot of the comments here some i agree with some i disagree with as W B Yeats once wrote back in 1913 - What need you being come to sense, But fumble in a greasy till, And add the halfpence to the pence And prayer to shivering prayer, until You have dried the marrow from the bone? For men were born to pray and save: Romantic Ireland's dead and gone, It's with our true heros and Leaders in the grave. (slight change to it). I like many Irish are now being forced abroad to look for work due to the fact that 1) 67.1% voted away my country 2) The Stupidity of the Irish people to sit down and do nothing example last week millions of people around Europe where on the Streets Voicing their anger unlike in Ireland we had a Lorry parked in front of government houses and 1000 protest later that day GOOD OLD FIGHTING IRISH.
This is what the Irish accept - 1) A Poor Education system 2) A poor Health System 3) A Poor justice System where Rapisits get protection by the Law 4) A disgraceful Police Force who attack and beat up innocent people when they are peacefully protesting same Police force who protect the Bankers and Gangs etc 5) A Banrupt Banking/ Finanical System in which by the time we are finished paying will cost this country 40 Billion. But what i really would like to know is how many of the people who posted comments here are actully Irish it would be interesting to see
@ DebsWM1do worry there are going to be alot of people homeless so fair play to Paddy if he is still living at home. He is angry at a system that may have failed him. I hear people now giving out about the threat to childerns allowance and to be honest why should i as a single man who chooses not to have childern pay my taxes for every child in this country and pay of the Lazy single parnets who get handouts for everything and shame those who want to work and support their child or pay for Childern who do not even live here (For 67.1% uneducated Irish People who said yes to Lisbon - We now spend nearly 300 million a year on childern that are not liven or even born in Ireland under EU) And by the way i wear football shirts but i dont drink yet i walk down my town see drunk people who are so Pround to go out and get Drunk and starting fights young Girls Giving oral sex on the streets, people getting Sick all over the place and sit down complaining in a pub about how hard they have been done bla bla bla. What we need is alot more angry Paddies sobber on the Street Fighting to save this Country not going down to the Welfare office getting the hand me outs and getting Drunk. I can see why Paddy wants to blow up Dail Eireann but in reality can you realy blame him. We all need to stand Up together and until we do that we will never be anything only sheep
and Fight as one not as individuals
lol @ Paul Thomas, you cant even spell dude. You need to lay off the booze man
Paul Thomas sounds awfully like Paddy. Paddy your an idiot, and your writing like a dyslexic 4 yr old. Go away please, you are embarrassing the good educated people of your island. Paddy have you ever even been outside? I did hear the Irish educational system had fallen behind the rest of Europe, but you are way beyond the blame of education Paddy. Paddy your out of your dept and you look like a complete fool. Why must Ireland still have this idiot Paddy as a stereotype?
@ Paddy aka Paul Thomas...they had to leave because of the uneducated idiots like you who seem to think terrorists are 'cool'. Learn to spell, take a course on grammar, broaden your knowledge beyond the red topped tabloid soundbites and then come back to us Paddy / Paul Thomas. You even changed your name and its still obvious you are the same fool.
Is Paddy / Paul Thomas real? Surely he is just a Euro cartoon
@ Laura Jane No Jane i understand what is happening in Ireland and i understand that alot of people here are very angry but they will get nowhere if they dont take control. Things will get worse for Ireland as a nation but in the long term this will have no effect on the Gobal market as Ireland is now run by Europe - "Do you Irish need to be loved so much that you will stand up for nothing?" German radio presenter from ARD. So untill we stand up we are going to get what we desevre in every aspect. Irish people will give out and not act so why does the rest of the world care as what ever happens here there will not be another Iceland as the EU will not allow it to happen as if it does it could lead to the end of the Euro. All in All Irish got to Greedy full stop.
@ Laura Jane You say the good educated people of this Country well where are they ??????
I am a good, (very) intelligent Irish person and I resent foreigners taking potshots at my country. On the subject of education, I was educated at secondary and third levels in England and I was top of the class. In fact I thought a lot of the English, etc, were stupid. No competition at all. This country is in a mess, yes, thanks to the greed of a few, thanks to the politicians, of whom nearly 50% have had a relation helping them into the Dail (parliament), thanks to a few idiots who voted them back in, but every country has it's share. Wasn't it Americans who voted Bush back in, telling us, "it's the economy stupid"? What did he do for the economy but scuppered it, along with the rest of the world, when he presided over a Fed which started pumping out more money than the world could ever handle? Who is stupid now? Dumbos. Wasn't it the Brits who voted Blair back in, despite him sending the Brit economy to it's knees? You outsiders are in a fine state to comment on our country. You're in as big a mess yourself, despite having so many more advantages, such as bigger home market, bigger export value as a result, bigger banking system as a result. When you Brits were running this country you left it in a state of famine. Laura Jane, would you dare say Paddy to his face? I didn't think so. And did you know you sound an awful lot like a Frigger? Loads of keyboard warriors here, loads of people who know all the answers, yet they can't spit them out half as quickly as they spit their vile. After all that, Bertie Ahern is a prat, but I'm allowed to say that, as a voting citizen. And the opposition are even worse. I'm thinking of Sinn Fein next; never thought I'd say that, but they are the only ones who speak for the poor, opposed the Euro Lisbon treaty, (twice), oppose these foreigners who put my country down, etc.
@James, I am delighted you got out of our country; good riddance. That's one advantage of this recession.
@Judy, it was you I intended the Frigger comment. Get a life, you sad masturbating, lonely old hag.
@Laura Jane, sorry, I meant the frigger comment at Judy, and the Paddy comment at Debs (drunken Paddy reference)
@Paddy, I, too, doubt you are Irish, or if you are, you are one of our many embarrassments; bug off you fool.
Ironic to hear all these comments on drunken Irishness, when half our pubs in Dublin are filled with scum foreigners looking for some of the great Irish craic. No doubt they feel a lot safer behind their keyboards passing comments on drunkenness. Scum.
Its was me and my family protesting outside leinster house that day, Irish people are like sheep at the moment, what does it take to get them out to force the gov to go, there is very little true leadership in this, country ,new stories of incompetence and scandal are coming out daily, the whole political, social and economical system is bad to the core, we need an election but more than that we need revolutionary change. politicans are institutionalised over generations. it will take years to rectify this but it has to be under a new Gov. We are a great nation and will be again but led by fools for now.
Hi, I am new.This is my frist post ...lol.
