Aggrieved women from Umuduruegwelle community in Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State, yesterday, took to the street to protest against the rate of incessant rape and murder of innocent mothers in the area, by faceless hoodlums.
The women displayed placards with inscriptions that portrayed their anger: 'We detest raping, killing of women in Umuduruegwelle,' 'NDLEA: Stop the selling and consumption of hard drugs in Umuduruegwelle,' 'IMSG and police, check activities of cultists in our community.'
Speaking on behalf of other protesters, Mrs. Theresa Iwundu, called on all the security agencies operating in the state, to save them from their current travails.
"We are tired of the rape and murder cases bedeviling our community. The ugly incidents are gradually destroying the peace of the community," Mrs. Iwundu lamented.

After giving a graphic account of how Mrs. Esther Joseph was murdered in her farm, Mrs. Iwundu expressed shock that the hoodlums were gradually penetrating into the primary and secondary schools in the area.
"It is sad to note that our women no longer fancy going to their farms for fear of being either raped or murdered by the rampaging hoodlums," Iwundu said.
She described the protest as "a last resort and another way of expressing our plight to government and the security agencies."
Meanwhile, unconfirmed reports indicated that some equally aggrieved young men from the community stormed and destroyed suspected rendezvous where hard drugs were sold in the area.

Devaughn Kensey scored three touchdowns to lead the 7-8 Las Vegas Outlaws youth football team to a 19-0 win over the Santa Fe Broncos this past weekend.
The 7-8 team improved to 4-2 in the Northern New Mexico Children's Football League standings.
C.J. Perea accounted for four TDs in leading the 9-10 Outlaws past the Estancia Bears, 25-0.
Perea connected with Zeke Villegas and Josh Martinez through the air for one touchdown each and ran for two more. Villegas added an extra point.
The 9-10 Outlaws are 7-0.

Brandelyn Fulgenzi has battled injury this fall, but the Robertson volleyball player looked all too healthy for Portales' liking on Saturday evening.
Fulgenzi riddled the Rams' defense with a match-high 25 kills on a .371 attack percentage as the Lady Cardinals (9-5) won in four sets at Mike Marr Gym.
Game scores were 14-25, 25-21, 25-12, 27-25.
Portales, whose long volleyball history against Robertson includes a state championship match victory back in 2007, opened this encounter by taking the first set.
T.J. Trujillo picked up another hat trick Saturday, and it came at a perfect time — a critical district soccer match with a tough Taos bunch.
Robertson's boys edged the visiting Tigers 3-2 to improve to 6-8-1 overall and 4-3 in a loaded District 2.
Earlier this fall, Taos had won 4-1 on its home field.
But the Cardinals found a way to take the rematch without key playmakers Tonati Aparicio-Blythe and Brandon Larrañaga.
Despite turning in one of the better offensive efforts of the Jeff Mills era, the young New Mexico Highlands football team couldn't match the explosive output of South Dakota School of Mines & Technology on Saturday at Perkins Stadium.
The visiting Hardrockers (5-1 overall, 4-1 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference) piled up 536 yards of offense, spoiling Highlands' homecoming game 44-17.
The Cowboys fell to 0-6 and 0-5 as they hit the road again for a game at Chadron State.
Placing all five scoring varsity runners in the top 30, Robertson's girls raced to a runner-up finish in the David Allen XC Invitational this past Saturday in Los Lunas.
Sophomore Makayla Quintana paced the Lady Cardinals by finishing third individually with a time of 21:03, but she had plenty of help as Savannah Sena (10th, 22:04) and the RHS pack boosted the team score to second place behind only Hope Christian.
With junior Miguel Coca leading the way, the West Las Vegas boys' varsity cross country team claimed eighth place at the same meet.

BOSTON — The ball settled into the right fielder's glove, the Cleveland Indians poured onto the diamond and the Fenway fans fell silent.
Then, slowly from the crowd rose a chant of "Pa-pi!"
Through Oct. 31, the City of Las Vegas Recreation Department is signing up players for some of its annual youth basketball leagues.
Registration ($40 fee per player) is open to boys in grades three to seven (non-school players) and to both boys and girls, kindergarten through second grades.
Coaches are also being sought and should complete applications available at Rodriguez Park Recreation Office on Grant Street and at City Hall.
The season runs from November to February.

• Memorial Middle School at Raton, 4 p.m., Raton
• West Las Vegas Middle School vs. Pojoaque, 4 p.m., Herrera Complex

Marcus Coca's return for a touchdown brought a merciful end to the West Las Vegas-Santa Fe Indian football game Thursday night with 1:15 still left in the third quarter.
By clinching an early win with a 59-6 margin, it also eclipsed the Dons' win total of last season, when they finished 4-6.
In fact, West's 5-1 overall record ensures the most victories in a season by the WLV program since 2008, when the Dons went 6-4.

Number of Speakers
The table states that there are 250,000 speakers, but the article says that there are only 20,000. It also states that current policy to increase numbers has been a disaster and that there has been signigicant increase over the past decades. Which is it?--Counsel 02:58, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
- It depends what you count. Figures from the latest census claim there are 1.6 million speakers, but when you investigate, that turns out to mean 1.6 million who consider themselves able to speak Irish, even if they're not native speakers, and even if they never do speak Irish; it also includes all the schoolchildren who "speak Irish every day" because they have Irish class in school every day. 20,000 is probably the number of native speakers who use it regularly. What would be really helpful is if the Irish census posed the question the same way the U.S. census does: What language do you speak at home? But instead they ask "Can you speak Irish?" and everyone who's ever said Sláinte! answers yes. Angr 07:11, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
- I understand that you (Counsel) find this to be conflicting, but that's actually how it is. As Angr explains, the Irish census is a mess when it comes to languages, asking for language knowledge instead of actual language use. If the same census idea were ever applied in the Netherlands, the result would be that almost all Dutch are English speakers. There are an estimated number of 250,000 fluent speakers and a number of 20,000 native speakers who use Irish as their main language in the Gaeltacht. Another 20,000 are estimated to use it as their home language outside the Gaeltacht, giving a number of 40,000 active speakers of Irish and about 200,000 more who have a knowledge of Irish comparable to the knowledge of English you can find in many European countries. The figure of 1.6 million speakers invclude anyone who knows a few words of Irish, most of them could not carry out even the simplest conversation in Irish, I'm sorry to say.
- It is true that policies to increase the number of speakers have been a disaster. When Ireland became independent, the stated goal was to make Irish the language of the state and at the very least to halt its decline. Both efforts failed miserably, many places that were almost completely Irish speaking in 1921 are completely English speaking today. On the other hand, the last 10-15 years have seen an upsurge in people outside the Gaeltacht areas who achieve fluency. The number of Gaelscoileanna are increasing and the number of people who could actually discuss with you in Irish is probably higher now than for the last 50 years at least. At the same time, the areas in which Irish is used as the community language continue to shrink. JdeJ 13:05, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
In the Irish in Stages section, it says "Irish has been a minority language since at least the 19th century", I've just read a book 'The Death of the Irish Language: a qualified Obituary" (Reg Hindley)and it says that there were no consensus' until the middle of this period but from looking at figures from later consensus' and working backwards it looks as if Irish was still the dominant language in the 19th Century. Who should I believe?! Beki 19:40 19th January 2007
- It depends on where in Ireland you were talking about. On the eve of the Famine, English was the language of government, the language of Dublin and the Pale, the language of advancement in society. It may or may not have been the majority language, but it was at the very least "dominant" in the political sense. At the same time Irish was the dominant language of the rural poor, particularly in the West - and because of the population growth in Ireland that had taken place over the previous centuries, there were more rural poor (and hence more Irish speakers) than there had ever been before. So Irish was dominant in the countryside and may well have been the majority language in, say, 1845. The Famine changed everything because half the population died or emigrated, and the overwhelming majority of those were rural, poor Irish-speakers. - Maalox 19:36 26 March 2007
I report the real number of peoples using irish according to the last census. Please note that english is not my mother tongue.correct me please.[1]
- That's cool, but next time could you practice your maths first?
- Persons aged three and over: 4,057,646
- Can speak Irish: 1,656,790 (40.9% of speaking population)
- Can speak Irish (in educational system): 453,207 (27.4% of Irish speaking population, 11.2% of speaking population)
- Can speak Irish (outside of educational system): 1,203,583 (72.6% of Irish-speaking population, 29.7% of speaking population)

I'd like to make the point that the first graph on this page is grossly misleading. According to this graph there is a higher or equal percentage of Irish speakers in the majority of counties over Donegal, which has an official Gaeltacht. This includes counties such as Limerick, Roscommon, Carlow, Meath, Kildare, etc. I take your point that these figures may reflect those who stated that they can speak Irish in the latest Census, however this offers an inaccurate reflection of what is reality.

Roman and Gaelic Type
How about a section on Roman and Gaelic type, controversies etc. Frainc 10.30 17 October 2006
- It's mentioned briefly in the Orthography and pronunciation section; any more detailed discussion probably belongs at Gaelic script and/or Irish orthography. —Angr 09:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, I hadnt noticed the article on Gaelic script, i will continue my query there. Frainc 11:47, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Irish phonology peer review
Irish phonology is up for peer review. Please leave comments at Wikipedia:Peer review/Irish phonology/archive1. Thanks! —Angr 18:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Materials for the status of Irish in NI after St Andrews Agreement
I have written a line or two in the aricle "[Irish Language]]" about the Irish Language Act discussed these days following the St Andrews Agreement but maybe there is more to be written in this article or in aticles specialised in North Ireland. Because I follow the news considering language policy, but I do not have the time to write something more myself about something I don't know enough, I am listing some links for the issue to be used by someone interested:
- a BBC news article [2]
- a comprehensive report from the Irish Times [3]
- the views of POBAL, the umbrella organisation for the Irish language community in Belfast: 8 principles (they are circulating also a BLACKLISTED LINK REMOVED supporting it). Also a lengthy Proposed Legislation - The Irish Language Act NI, published before the agreement.
- Sinn Fein's view [4] [5]
- SDLP's view [6]
- DUP's view [7]
--Michkalas 20:21, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Republic now Éire-Ireland
Added in - perhaps the main page should be divided into the linguistic and political/policy aspects? Can anyone add a) when Irish was first made compulsory in schools b) what it has cost the Irish government since then c) why 200,000+ people are fluent but hardly ever use it?Stamboul 11:38, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hardly ever use it?! Pure conjecture. According to the 2002 census, Irish is used daily by 359,000~ The cost is immaterial and no doubt not attainable. Jamesnp 11:39, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
Irish vs. Gaelic
- "The language is usually referred to in English as Irish, and less often as Gaelic (IPA: /ˈgeɪlɪk/) or Irish Gaelic. Gaelic or Irish Gaelic"
So I had thought, until my dad told me once upon a time that Irish and Gaelic are different languages. Does this mean that he's wrong, or that people who refer to Irish as Gaelic or Irish Gaelic are wrong? And on this basis, is there any language that's correctly called Irish Gaelic? -- Smjg 23:25, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- Your dad was probably thinking of Scottish Gaelic, which is often called simply "Gaelic" for short. Irish is sometimes also called simply "Gaelic" for short, but not as frequently or as uncontroversially. "Irish Gaelic" is the same language as Irish, used especially when the speaker wants to make it clear that by "Irish" he doesn't mean "Irish English". —Angr 23:40, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- Re the claim from the article that it's usually referred to as Irish, and less often as Gaelic, I was surprised (as an American of Irish ancestry who has lived near New York and Boston, two cities with large Irish-American communities) to hear that Gaelic is a less common name, and that Gaelic may preferentially refer to Scottish Gaelic. In my experience (again, in the US) the language spoken in Ireland is most often called Gaelic, and that Gaelic unambiguously refers to the version spoken in Ireland. I am curious whether this is the experience of others in the US, and also whether the number of people who call this language Gaelic is larger than the article suggests. --Zippy 17:35, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- The article does say that the name Gaelic is often used in the Irish diaspora. It's in Ireland itself where the name Gaelic is comparatively rare. In my experience as a Celticist I can say that in scholarly works (regardless of the author's country of origin) the language is almost universally called "Irish", occasionally "Irish Gaelic" and never "Gaelic" unmodified. —Angr 18:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- I would have to disagree I don't know about Ireland but in the I have never heard it called Irish only Gaelic0

Could this be the fact that Gaelic in Ireland usually refers to "Gaelic Games" rather than the language?
- Nothing so normal as disambiguation. From what I gather it's usually referred to as Irish because the speaker sees it as/wishes it to be seen as the indigenous/national language, ie the Irish language. At least this was one argument used by an 'enthusiast' when I referred to it as Gaelic. beano 21:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- Irish, Manx and Scottish Gaelic are all Gaelic languages. Scottish Gaelic, however, is the only one that requires a clarifier. Its original name in English was Scottis (pronounced "Scots"). However, in English, this word now means the Scottish Anglic language, Scots, which was originally called Inglis (pronounced "English"). Scots started to be known as such from the 15th century onwards, but, following the 1707 Act of Union, the practice grew rapidly as speakers sought to distance the language they spoke from the language spoken in England. Today, in English, to avoid confusion between the two "Scots", the Gaelic language of Scotland is known as Scottish Gaelic.
- Irish or Manx do not require any such clarifiers as there are no other languages with which they could be confused. Calling Irish "Irish Gaelic" or calling Manx "Manx Gaelic" is about as useful as calling English "English Anglic" or calling Welsh "Welsh Britannic". That is to say that unless the speaker is naming Irish in terms of other Gaelic languages, its utterly unnecessary. However, this may explain why Irish-Americans name Irish in this way i.e. emphasising its "Gaelic-ness", possibly to others who may assume that it is an Anglic language similar to English as I know from experience that may people think. --sony-youthtalk 00:50, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Could some of you who know about Irish have a look at the article Aber and Inver as place-name elements. I would be surprised if there are really no Irish place-names with a form of Inver-, but the Irish situation needs to be covered in that article. --Doric Loon 10:15, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- I have been studying both Irish and Scots Gaelic for a few years. Even though I am not totally fluent in either yet, I can tell you that there are more similarities between Irish and Scots Gaelic than differences. Scots Gaelic has it's birth place in Irish Gaelic. There is also a strong link between the dialect spoken in Ulster and it's counterpart in Scotland. I have a buddy that is a fluent speaker of Scots Gaelic. He does understand me when I talk to him in Irish. Though from time to time there are words or pronounciations that are not found in common. I like to think of the differences between the two as similar to the differences between British English and American English. Though I have not found a counterpart to Canadian English, which is in between. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs) 21:14, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well, Arklow in Co. Wicklow is called An tInbhear Mór. But I can't think of any places that have had their names Anglicised as Inver-. Jamesnp 13:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- A Google search for "Inver Ireland" or "Inbhir Ireland" should solve your troubles. There's at least one in each of Mayo and Donegal that exactly match the description on the page you linked:
- Inver, Co. Mayo = Inbhir, Co Mhaigheo
- Inver, Co. Donegal = Bhun an inbhir, Co. Dhun na nGall
Those are just the first two hits. Speaking as a Mayo man, the sound Inver seems very familiar. --sony-youthtalk 23:06, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- Inverin has an article. Also Dromineer. Maybe the anglicised forms are often more distorted. But inbhear tends to mean "estuary" or "inlet" rather than "river mouth". Are many Irish settlements built at river mouths; are those that are often named after the river? jnestorius(talk) 23:15, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- This is a very interesting topic. Inver- names are virtually non-existent in Ireland, perhaps like Ben- names and the Strath- names. This seems to be very significant, as Inver- names are one the most common generic element variations in Scotland, in both Argyll and Alba/Pictland; the key is perhaps that the Picto-Scottish follow the British tendency, as in Wales, to use Aber- for settlements lying at the confluence of rivers. The estuary meaning is used in Scotland, such as Inverclyde, but is likewise rare. It also noticable that Inver- names are virtually non-existent in Galloway (as are Aber- names and Ben- names; Strath- names aren't appropriate for such particular comparison). Suprise at this phenomenon is a product of viewing early Insular Celtic languages as two branches, a product itself of using Welsh and Irish as the only paradigms, rather than a continuum subject to alterating periods of convergence and divergence. Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 20:03, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
External links
I have made a first pass at tidying up the "External Links" section, as it is fast becoming a repository of links for anything remotely related to the Irish language, or for pages written in the Irish language.
This is not the External Links section is for.
Per WP:EL, the "Ext Links" section should really be limited to official links (like Foras na Gaeilge or similar), links to accurate/neutral reference material about the subject (that cannot be integrated into the Wikipedia article due to copyright/length considerations), or sites which are otherwise relevant to the context of the wider article.
A lot of what is currently linked (in particular links to news resources in Irish, etc) fails WP:EL for promotion, relevance, etc.
Comments welcome before I make a second pass at summarising the list. Guliolopez 19:29, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Quick/stupid question
Hello. I just have a question... I read somewhere that there was an Irish word for "hill" or even the depression next to a hill. I think the word was either "cwb" or "cbw", I can't remember, and I can't find it anywhere, (I can't even rememeber where I read about it; sorry). It may not even be Irish.... Perhaps it's Finnish.... If anyone knows what I'm talking about, your help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Kaiilaiqualyn 14:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- I believe you're thinking of the Welsh word cwm, which is an indentation in a mountain. —Angr 14:11, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you very much!!! Kaiilaiqualyn 14:15, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
As an estimate, what's the percentage about of people in Ireland that speak English?
- If you're counting actual Irish citizens (i.e. not people visiting on holiday, working there temporarily on a Visa, etc), I would guess it was about 99.9%.--feline1 19:59, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
- I agree to 99.9%. I see on the map that 40-45% of people in Kildare speak Irish. I have lived in Kildare all my life (I'm 50) and I have never once heard people talking to each other naturally using Irish. So 40-45% of us can understand some but we aren't fluent beyond a basic school vocabulary. The map might give the wrong impression that 40-45% of us speak it all the time. It is used for introductions to speeches (especially political), in Irish school lessons and singing folk-songs. The census figures tend to over-emphasize its daily use; the census and compulsory Irish lessons are both governmental, and not demotic, realities. It is difficult to learn and once people are fluent beyond a certain point (beyond school level) it takes on a semi-religious aspect, due to the time devoted to it.Red Hurley 11:09, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Number of fluent speakers
Where does the figure of 380,000 in the infobox come from? The footnote has a link to ethnologue, but that doesn't mention the number of fluent speakers (in any case, how is "fluent" defined?) and doesn't mention the figure of 380,000! Instead, it claims 355,000 total for all countries, which presumably includes non-fluent speakers (though contradicts the main text of this article). Any explanation? garik 12:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
- I've removed it anyway. garik 10:36, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
should i post this picture?
i have a picture from my trip to the republic of ireland last year. its of a guinness ad in irish, would that be apropriate somewhere on this page? i was looking through the page and i couldn't find a spot, so i thought i'd get some consensus before i posted it. ...Patrick (talk, cntrb.) 04:27, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sounds good. How about the republic of ireland/Daily Life section? Boracay Bill 05:57, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- i posted the picture. from my very short knowledge of irish, i think it (Failte go dtí Ceol agus Comhrá) translates sort of as, "come and welcome to music and conversation." is that correct? i'd like to put the translation in the caption. ...Patrick (talk, cntrb.) 08:54, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Looking at the sign, I think it's supposed to read "Fáilte go dtí Guinness - Ceol agus Comhrá" (Welcome to Guinness - Music and Conversation). But maybe it's "Fáilte go dtí Ceol agus Comhrá" (Welcome to Music and Conversation). —Angr 09:03, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

This is the 'dialect' that is taught in most schools in Ireland
This statement could do with elaboration. In the personal experience of myself and others who have gone to school in the Midwest of Ireland, the exact form of Irish used/taught has been influenced by the teacher, in this case generally Munster and/or Connacht. There is also the issue of the listening test in the Leaving Certificate - from what I remember this was not merely a mix of accents from Munster/Connacht/Ulster but also including local expressions, vocabulary and constructions (oh the fun of that in an exam!). zoney ♣ talk 13:24, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

- In 2007 the Gaeltacht boundaries will be redrawn, the first time that this has happened since the 1950s.
- over 80% [of the population of the "Fíor-Ghaeltacht"] use the language daily. The highest proportions of daily Irish speakers in the community are found in Rosmuck (Ros Muc), County Galway, (over 91%), and around Bloody Foreland (Cnoc na Fola) in Donegal (88-89%).
- The Irish of Tourmakeady (Tuar Mhic Éadaigh) in southern Mayo (Maigh Eo Theas) and Joyce Country (Dúiche Sheoigheach) are considered the living Irish dialects closest to Middle Irish.
- While some students learn Irish well through the Irish school system, and develop a healthy respect for it, some other students find it difficult or are taught poorly by unmotivated teachers; these students' attitudes toward Irish tend to range from apathy to hostility.
- In recent years the expansion of the Irish language in Australia been so overwhelming there is too much demand for the supply of teachers.
If anyone can find sources for these statements, feel free to re-add them. —Angr 19:02, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
The same applies to these statements where the stated source does not actually back up the claim:
- On January 18, 2007, Marian Harkin, a North West Independent MEP, became the first MEP to officially address the European Parliament in Irish (although several other Irish MEPs had done so previously in an unofficial capacity). Sourced to: http://www.oceanfm.ie/onair/sligoleitrimnews.php?articleid=000003892
- These are supposed to ensure that the proportion of Irish speakers in the local population does not decrease, but may be contrary to recent Human Rights laws. Footnote: Human Rights Commission Act 2000, section 2; citizens had a right to buy, build or rent property in Ireland, regardless of language. The planning controls have created a new grey area, as yet untested in court.
The second above looks like original research based on a primary source anyway; even if the act did mention buying, building, and renting property (and I don't see that it does), it is OR to deduce that the building restrictions in the Gaeltacht may violate the law (only a court, not an encyclopedia reader, can decide that). —Angr 19:58, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
In addition to removing unsourced statements, I'm removing the following statementless sources:
- Brian Ó Cuív in 'A New History of Ireland 1534-1691, Oxford 1978 ISDN 0 19 821739 0
- R.V. Comerford, cited below, chapter 4.
- A. Kelly, Compulsory Irish; Language and Education in Ireland (Dublin 2002).
If anyone remembers what statements they were put in to support, please add them inline next to the relevant sentence. —Angr 20:06, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
Original research/Speculation/Commentary/POV
Further to Angr's efforts above, I have also noted quite a few cases of speculation, generalisation, unsourced POV and other "unencylopedic" commentary. Examples include:
- Yet, 2007 shows some hope for the future, with the first officially sanctioned Gaeltacht being declared outside of Ireland on June 16th, 2007...
- Suggesting that gowth or decline is a good or bad thing. Should stick to facts. Propose change to:
- There has been some ancillary growth however, with the first officially sanctioned Gaeltacht being declared outside of Ireland on June 16th, 2007...
Unsourced commentary/Original research/Speculation:
- Publicly displayed Irish is sometimes ungrammatical, which has the potential to irritate speakers and activists.
- Speculation and generalisation on reaction of readers. Can consider no reword option. Plan on simply removing.
Original research/Speculation:
- That the Dáil uses Irish in less than 1% of its business may also contribute to the public image of the revival.
- Same as above. Speculation/generalisation on "what people might think". Again, can consider no reword option. Plan on removing.
- In an effort to address the half-committed attitude of Irish language use by the State, the Official Languages Act was passed in 2003.
- POV/commentary on previous efforts. Propose change to:
- In an effort to increase the use of the Irish language by the State, the Official Languages Act was passed in 2003.
- The Planning and Development Act (2000) attempted to address the latter issue, but the response is almost certainly inadequate.
- Complete POV. Plan on changing to:
- The Planning and Development Act (2000) attempted to address the latter issue, with varied levels of success.
Original research/Speculation:
- Outward migration of Irish-speakers could be reduced if the state, which is the main employer in the Republic of Ireland, were to exercise its right to have certain jobs performed in Irish and relocated to the Gaeltacht.
- Yet again, the contributor is making POV suggestions on what might be done, and coming to speculative conclusions on the possible outcome. Plan on removing.
More commentary/Drawing conclusions:
- On 3rd December 2003 the Minister for Finance announced a new decentralisation programme, moving over 10,000 civil and public service jobs to 53 locations in 25 other counties outside Dublin. The government explicitly said this was being done to boost the economy of outlying areas. None of these jobs were used to provide employment for native Irish-speakers in the Gaeltacht.
- As above. Plan on removing entire para.
If there are any comments on proposed solutions to address, please let me know. Otherwise will progress these changes in coming days. Le meas. Guliolopez 17:01, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. Too many of these examples are of a editorial and speculative nature, and are certainly not neutral in their view, as a consiquence such material should be removed as a matter of course. Djegan 19:33, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- Agree also, except for the bit about "first officially sanctioned Gaeltacht being declared outside of Ireland" - see talk page on Permanent North American Gaeltacht - just remove it. --sony-youthpléigh 21:23, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

1. That's ********.
2. The same can be said of the Israelis, unless you go back to the Roman ****ing Empire.
3. The Palestinians are forced to buy back the water that Israel takes in violation of international law. If they're not using the water, why are they buying it?
Through practically the entirety of human civilization, the Levant has been nothing but a land dispute, so I question how any one group can claim it's the "rightful owner" over any piece of it.

2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Wagon GT 4dr Wagon (2.4L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
This car gets about 16 mpg city and 21 mpg hwy, and MUST have premium fuel. Repairs are VERY expensive and best done by a dealer, you will not be able to do anything yourself. The entire car is poorly engineered. The battery is half hidden under the fender and very hard to get in and out, I tried to replace it once and did $250 in damage to surrounding parts ( plastic- dealer only ). The drivers seat adjustment switch is molded into a large plastic panel on the side of the seat. If you are short enough to comfortably drive the car, then you are to short to get in and out without putting pressure on this piece. Ours has broken twice, it's $350 to replace ( dealer only ). These are just two examples.This is my wifes' car ( her 2nd ) and has only 60K miles since purchasing it new, the AC is currently out for the 2nd time. When I drive the car, I tilt my head to the right to keep from touching the headliner, and still have limited forward visibility. The roof line is so low in front it is a chore to see a traffic light and I am just a little shy of 6 FT. By the way, her first PT cruiser had to have an engine replacement at 13K miles.
2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Wagon 4dr Wagon (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I purchased my 2006 PT brand new,and 4 clutches and over $4000 spent just on the 4 clutches later I still have the car. Just replaced the 3rd radiator. First clutch went out at 20,000 miles and Chrysler would not cover that because they said it was wear and tear. No I don't ride the clutch, either. The vehicle weighs 3300 pounds and drives and feels heavy, in fact it has a truck chassis. i just bought a top of the line Toyota Avalon 2015 that weighs about the same as the little PT. Expect the PT to have a very poor turning radius, but comfortable inside. Very disappointing gas mileage for a 5 speed, I never got better than 21-23 in the city, I expected better. Overall I have spend more on repairs and rental cars over the years than I paid for this car, keeping the car only because I had no other options. Just spend over $2000 on a timing belt (I just have 120,000 miles) and another $450 on a radiator, the third one. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment. Some things I do like, the back seat folds down and the storage capacity for a small car is excellent. If your considering this car, I would totally stay away from the 5 speed at any cost and keep in mind the older model cars (like mine) have timing belts instead of timing chains, much more expensive to replace, so make sure you check that out before buying any PT model.
2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Wagon Limited 4dr Wagon (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
Bought new, now has 77,000 miles. One of top 5 of over 85 cars I have owned. Reminds me of my Renault 16, with all of its virtues and few of the annoyances. Great road car. We actually preferred it to the Volvo V70 T5 and Buick Lesabre we owned. Quiet, comfortable, great cargo space. Reliable: only timing belt and brakes replaced at 75,000 miles. My wife and I can't understand why some people hate this car.
Bought in 2009 with 43K miles. Within 3 years had to replace the entire back end of car - sometimes certain pieces TWICE! Get only 18 to 19 mpg in the city; maximum I've seen is only 23 mpg and that was only once. Now it seems like I have to replace things in the front. This car is not driven like a maniac; I drive it very safely. Bad vision out of the right window; you can't see cars on the right side. Costs about $50.00 to fill a tank - every week. Fits a lot of stuff inside and is extremely attractive but very expensive on mechanical problems and for gas. Fabric seats are starting to rip (no, I have no pets or children in the car)
Nice interior; very easy to use. Beautiful outside, too.
They could have made so many more options available; moon roof or sun roof, special "vintage" looking back window, hood ornament, etc. Something is seriously wrong with the front and back end of the car with the suspension.

Home › Snowboarding › Snowboard Goggles › Anon › Anon Helix 2.0 Snowboard Goggles - 2017 Blaze / Red Solex
New for 2017 the Anon Helix 2.0 has had a new fresh clean design. Although it's still a pretty reasonable price for a set of snow goggles, anon has not cheaped out on the goggle, they are comfortable and provide good visual clarity. Not only this, they also come with a secondary lens in the box for cloudier conditions. Needless to say, it's a best seller.
These snowboard goggles have a Red Solex Lens which is best for sunnier conditions as they allow 25% Visible light transmittance or 'VLT' (which is a measure of the amount of visible light that is allowed to pass through a lens to the eye.). The secondary lens included in the box is an 'Amber' lens which is good for Cloudier skies as it allows 55% VLT.

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIAv.DAVID CHARLES CUMMINGS, APPELLANT
Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence August 6, 1986 in the Court of Common Pleas of Columbia County, Criminal, No. 333 of 1985.
Scott W. Naus, Public Defender, Bloomsburg, for appellant.
Elwood R. Harding, Jr., District Attorney, Bloomsburg, for Com., appellee.
Cirillo, President Judge, and Hoffman and Hester, JJ. Hoffman, J., concurs in result.
[ 368 Pa. Super. Page 343]
This is an appeal from a judgment of sentence entered by the Court of Common Pleas of Columbia County against appellant, David Cummings, after he pled guilty to burglary. We quash.
Appellant was arrested and charged with receiving stolen property, criminal trespass, burglary, and theft. He pled guilty to the burglary charge and the remaining charges were subsequently withdrawn. The court then sentenced Cummings to a period of incarceration of not less than four years nor more than ten years. Cummings appealed to this court, challenging the sentence as an abuse of discretion.
Appellant does not challenge the legality of the sentence. Thus, an appeal in this case is not taken as of right. See 42 Pa.C.S. § 9781(a). Rather, appellant challenges the discretionary aspects of the sentence.
When appealing the discretionary aspects of a sentence, the appellant must invoke the appellate court's jurisdiction by including in his brief a separate concise statement demonstrating that there is a substantial question as to the appropriateness of the sentence under the Sentencing Code. Commonwealth v. Tuladziecki, 513 Pa. 508, 511-513, 522 A.2d 17, 19 (1987); 42 Pa.C.S. § 9781(b). Only after appellant has fulfilled these requirements will this court review the merits of the case. Id.; Pa.R.A.P. 2119(f).
Appellant has minimally complied with the first requirement set out above. His brief does in fact contain a statement of the reasons relied upon for allowance of appeal. See Pa.R.A.P. 2119(f). However, "[i]t is only where a party can articulate reasons why a particular sentence raises doubts that [the sentencing] scheme as a whole has been compromised that the appellate court should review the manner in which the trial court exercised its discretion." Tuladziecki, 513 Pa. at 515, 522 A.2d at 20.
Appellant's statement of the reasons relied upon for allowance of appeal proclaims that "failure of the [trial]
[ 368 Pa. Super. Page 344]
court to consider on the record mitigating circumstances in the sentence raises [a] substantial question that the sentence imposed is inappropriate." This assertion fails to provide us with any articulable reasons why the sentence imposed upon the appellant compromises the sentencing scheme as a whole. The proffered statement fails to mention the length of the sentence imposed on him or the crime for which he was sentenced. The terms of the sentence the appellant is asking us to review and the crime or crimes which gave rise to that sentence are sine qua nons of a petition for allowance of appeal of the discretionary aspects of a sentence. This court simply cannot gauge whether there is a "substantial question" that "a particular sentence raises doubts that [the scheme of the Sentencing Code] as a whole has been compromised" without knowing what the length of the sentence is or what the crimes involved are. Appellant's failure to supply these elements in his statement of the reasons relied upon for allowance of appeal prevents us from finding a substantial question that the sentence is inappropriate, and thus we cannot accept the appeal.
Appeal quashed.

"Weird" Al Yankovic wanted to do a parody of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way," so he did what he usually does: he contacted the artist and asked permission. Lady Gaga said she'd have to hear the lyrics, so Weird Al wrote the lyrics and sent them to her. Gaga then said she's have to actually hear the song, so Weird Al went into the studio and recorded it - at which point Gaga refused to give her permission. Weird Al responded by doing something he's never done in his entire career: he's asserted his fair use rights and made an unapproved parody available to the public.

"Welcome to the Zion Archive. You have selected Historical File #12-1: The Second Renaissance." So begins the short film of the same name by Mahiro Maeda [Flash: 1 2 - QuickTime: 1 2] -- a devastating yet beautiful work of animation. Originally produced to explain the backstory behind the Matrix trilogy, Maeda's project ended up telling a story far darker and more affecting than any blockbuster. Using a blend of faux documentary footage and visual metaphor, his serene Instructor relates in biblical tones the saga of Man and Machine, how age-old cruelty and hatred birthed a horrifying, apocalyptic struggle that consumed the world. Packed with striking imagery and historical allusions galore, this dark allegory easily transcends the films it was made for. But while "The Second Renaissance" is arguably the best work to come from the Matrix franchise, it's hardly alone -- it's just one of the projects made for The Animatrix, a collection of nine superb anime films in a wide variety of styles designed to explore the universe and broaden its scope beyond the usual sci-fi action of the movies.

You're Short, Bald, and Ugly, Charlie Brown
"There was a night, maybe sometime around 1993, when I [Joe Matt] was working on an issue of my comic book, Peepshow and I was using some xeroxes of Peanuts strips from the collection, "You Can Do It, Charlie Brown" as blotter-paper. Anyway, there came a moment when I was using white-out and to remove some excess white-out from my brush, I wiped it on the blotter paper beneath my hand. And that's how I came to idly white-out the words balloons on a few Peanuts strips. Once I saw the balloons whited-out and forgot what they originally said, I began filling them with the first perverted thing my brain thought they might say. It was so much fun and I was so happy with the results that I brought the pages out to show to Seth and Chester [Brown] the next day. Seth was eager to try it and immediately suggested we each go home and produce a set number of pages for a mini comic. Less than a week later, Chester brought out his original take on the concept and put Seth and I to shame." [more inside]


text: Home > Focus EDSA: Then and Now ABS-CBN News Posted at Feb 24 2016 06:35 PM Share Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the EDSA People Power revolution, take a look at how EDSA has evolved and how the characters in that event have changed through the years. Epifanio de los Santos Avenue, the road itself, has undergone major changes in its landscape in response to population growth and modernization. The highway is now dominated by an elevated railway. Once grassy portions where tanks were parked after being stopped by civilians during EDSA are now occupied by skyscrapers. EDSA the uprising meant a change leadership - from Marcos to Cory to Ramos. Two more leaders--Arroyo and Estrada--took the helm, and now PNoy. The leaders have changed but can we say the same for the country? So, here's a look at "EDSA" then and now. Mobile users can view the desktop version of the slideshow here. EDSA 1986. Soldiers aboard military trucks travel on their way to Camps Crame and Aguinaldo where thousands of people gathered.

You could just copy the dots theme to your computer, uninstall fiveirows through Cydia, then put the dots theme back into the themes folder.

Discuss examples of irony, satire, and pessimism in Thomas Hardy`s "The Darkling Thrush."
2 Answers | Add Yours
Pessimism: The mood of pessimism is introduced by a description of the weather as spectre-grey, the sun as weak, the end of winter as dregs, and the stems as strings of broken musical instruments. In the second stanza the land is pictured as a corpse and described as shrunken.
Irony: I'm not sure that this poem is intended as ironic. I think the contrast between the thrush carolling, and singing of blessed hope and the agnostic narrator surrounded by misery is intended as serious. This is a typical contrast in Hardy's poetry reflecting a nostalgia for a kind of country life and simple piety in which he can no longer participate due to his own intellectual sophistication.
Satire: The poem is not a satire..
In my opinion you can see irony from the beginning with the title " The Darkling Thrush". In choosing words, Hardy paid a great amount of attention to the words. He could use " The Singing Nightingale" instead of that tiltle but he didn't; and the point is that he wants to use this title to show the pessimistic atmosphere of the coming century.
Hardy wrote this poem on New Year Eve and you can find examples of pessimism from all parts of it that are foreshadowing the gloominess of the coming century. "His crypt the cloudy canopy" is an example of pessimism and irony for the loneliness and gloominess of the situation.

The Quest of Life's Journey
The JourneyClick thumbnail to view full-size
The Quest
Questioning the Soul as to why we're here
Understand the Real reason for life
Each beautiful being here is so dear
Striving to find Peace in this world of Strife
Trying to take on the world with no fear
Searching for the bond built by man and wife
Questioning the human heart in this time
Understand how we all Hope to find Love
Each perfect person will live their own rhyme
Striving to live with Love and rise above
Trying to stay happy 'till the last chime
Searching for the Love that fits like a glove
Questioning the mind as to what is real
Understand that true Love is the mission
Each sweet soul should sing how they really feel
Striving to seek out the best condition
Trying to find Hope to Help this world heal
Searching to fulfill awesome ambition
I see life as a journey, the great quest to find happiness and answers to the mysteries of life. I try to appreciate and learn from every moment of my life. I know that we can not get a second of time back so we must make the best of what we have here and now at all times.
I hope you have enjoyed this poem, may it give you some joy on your journey.
Best wishes.

In the time before but especially after most of the Friends cast reunited for a big NBC special, fans have wondered if we might get a real Friends reunion down the line.

In its 10 years on the air, Friends created many episodes that would become favorites among fans, if not outright classics. "The One With All the Thanksgivings" is one of those episodes, but, as it turns out, the episode that saw Joey and Monica put turkeys on their heads cheated a little bit.

Matt LeBlanc became a household TV name in the 90s thanks to his role on Friends. He'll debut a brand new show this fall with a character who seems to have little in common with Joey. Still, the big question is of whether or not LeBlanc will reunite with any of his old Friends friends for his latest project.

Friends was a phenomenally popular show over its ten-year run, and no fan could possibly forget when the six main characters took their shenanigans on the road to Las Vegas.

Friends is one of the most popular sitcoms to air on NBC during the network's must-see TV heyday. Nowadays, it would be difficult to think about a world without Friends, but in the mid-nineties, the sitcom almost never came together.

Often, you work in a huge code base containing a lot of directories and source files (C++, C#, etc) and you want to quickly edit a file. If you know at least some part of the file name, you can use this tip to look up the file and edit it.
You need some Unix tools such as find, cat, sed and sort. GNU Windows versions of these will do as well.
Put the following in a batch file (these examples are for Windows; you can do equivalents for Unix):
@find [directory] > c:\files.txt @cat c:\files.txt | sed -f c:\tags.sed | sort > c:\files.tags
Replace [directory] with whatever directory you want to find the files in. For example, c:\root.
Here, c:\tags.sed contains the following:
s/\\/\//g s/\(.*\/\)\(.*\)/\2 \1\2 1;" F/g s/ //g /.*RECYC.*/d
Once, this is done, you simply do the following in your vimrc:
set tags=c:\files.tags
That's it! You can now look up and edit any file.
Example: If you have c:\root\Foo.cpp and c:\root\FooBar.cpp and you gave c:\root to find tool above, then doing
:tj Foo<tab> will give you completion for Foo.cpp and FooBar.cpp.
ctags does the same:
ctags -R --file-tags=yes c:/
If you want to know how Vim integrates with ctags, check :help 29.1, :help tagsrch.txt.
