Geography Ireland is the most westerly country of the European Union, separated from Great Britain by the North Channel on the northeast and the Irish Sea on the east. Ireland is an island of 84,430 sq. km (32,598 square miles). Its greatest length is 485 km (302 miles), its greatest width 304 km (189 miles), and its coastline extends for over 5,631 km (3,500 miles). The highest mountain is Carrantuohill (1,040 metres/3,414 feet), near Killarney in County Kerry. The longest river is the Shannon (370 km/230 miles). The largest lake is Lough Neagh (396 sq. km/153 square miles) in Northern Ireland. The country is divided into four historic provinces. Ulster (9 counties) in the north; Munster (6 counties) in the south; Leinster (12 counties) in the east; and Connacht (5 counties) in the west. The population of the 32 counties of Ireland is approximately 5 million.
Landscape The landscape varies from bogs and lakes in the central lowlands to mountains and rocky islands in the west. Between these two extremes, the island has abundant lush, green pastureland but little natural woodland.
24 | P a g e
Climate Winters in Ireland are mild and summers temperate due to the prevailing south westerly winds and the influence of the warm waters of the North Atlantic Drift. Ireland has a mild climate all year-averaging 2°7°C (35°- 45°F) in winter and 18°- 24°C (65°- 75°F) in summer. May and June are the sunniest months with an average of over 7 hours of sunshine per day.
Time Zone Ireland is in the same time zone as Great Britain, Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The clocks change twice yearly for summer time. The summer time period starts the last Sunday in March at 1.00am GMT, i.e. the clock goes forward one hour (GMT +1). The summertime period ends the last Sunday in October at 1.00am GMT, i.e. the clock goes back one hour.
Currency The currency of the Republic of Ireland is the Euro (€). Euro notes are in seven denominations: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 Euro. There is 100 cent to the Euro and coins are in eight denominations: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent, and 1 and 2 Euro. As Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, the pound sterling (Stg£) is in use and denominations are similar to that of the Euro. 25 | P a g e
Banking There are several retail banks in Ireland including the Bank of Ireland (BOI), the Allied Irish Bank (AIB), the Ulster Bank, the National Irish Bank and the TSB Bank. Bank of Ireland has a branch on the University of Limerick campus. Most banks are open from Monday to Friday from 10h00 to 12h30 and from 13h30 to 16h00, with some branches open through lunch. There is extended opening until 17h00 on one day per week (the choice varying from place to place). ATM facilities are available is most towns and villages.

There are Church of Ireland, Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist Churches, as well as Eastern Orthodox and Salvation Army communities. Several American gospel groups are represented as well as Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons. In addition to the Christian denominations there are centres for Buddhists, Hindus, Bahais and for people of the Islamic and Jewish faiths. 26 | P a g e
Safety In the Republic of Ireland the Police are called the Gardaí (plural) or Guard (singular). In the case of an emergency the Gardaí can be contacted by dialing 999 or 112, as can the Ambulance or Fire Brigade services. Ireland is a relatively safe place to live, however it is advisable to take suitable precautions, such as avoiding poorly lit streets or back streets in the cities and larger towns at night. If you feel intimated or frightened in an area, it is best to avoid eye contact and leave the scene as quickly as possible. Always remember to lock your room and windows before you go out. Always be careful with your personal belongings and don't leave valuables unattended.
Electricity In Ireland, the same as in most parts of Europe, standard electricity voltage is between 220 – 240 volts, and frequency is 50 Hertz. If your electric goods are not suited to work under these conditions you should buy a transformer. This especially applies to those of you who are bringing your electrical goods from the USA. Buildings in Ireland have sockets for 13 amp square pin fused plugs. Adaptors can be bought in any hardware shop to adapt your plugs to fit 3 pin sockets.
Telephone Public telephones in Ireland are coin, card or credit card operated. Card operated telephones take a telephone card that can be bought from newsagents
27 | P a g e
and can be used for several calls until the credit runs out. International phone cards can also be bought from most newsagents. The international dialling code for Ireland is +353 and the area code for Limerick is (0)61. Most people in Ireland have a mobile phone and students may purchase a mobile phone on arrival in Ireland. There are several mobile phone companies in Ireland: Vodafone, Meteor, Three, 48, Tesco Mobile, Postfone and eMobile. Many students who have a sim free phone (unlocked) pick up a free sim card and top it up with call minutes as necessary. You can also purchase a new phone here if you wish.
Radio and Television Ireland has three state controlled television channels, RTE 1, RTE 2 and the Irish language TeilifĂs na Gaeilge (TG4), and one privately run channel, TV3. There are six national radio stations and many local ones. British TV channels can be picked up in most parts of Ireland on Cable TV.
Newspapers and Magazines Popular national daily newspapers include the Irish Times, Irish Independent and the Irish Examiner. There are also daily tabloid newspapers. Most towns have a local or regional paper, which tell you what's on and where. The regional paper for Limerick is the Limerick Leader. All good newsagents sell a wide variety of special interest magazines, from sport to business.
28 | P a g e
Driving in Ireland In Ireland, cars are driven on the left-hand side of the road. In towns and cities the speed limit is normally 30-50 kilometres per hour but on certain roads higher limits may apply. A general speed limit of 100 kilometres per hour applies on all roads except for motorways where a speed limit of 120 kilometres miles per hour applies.
The laws regarding speeding, drink-driving and wearing seatbelts in Ireland are very strict. There is a penalty point system in operation, whereby points will be added to your driving licence for road safety offences. Full details on all road safety offences can be found at www.penaltypoints.ie

The University of Limerick is an independent, internationally focussed university with over 13,000 students and 1,200 staff. It is a young, energetic and enterprising university with a proud record of innovation in education and excellence in research and scholarship. Its mission is to promote and advance learning and knowledge through teaching, research and scholarship in an environment which encourages innovation and upholds the principles of free enquiry and expression.

Is there a bodyweight you want to achieve? Maybe you are less worried about range bodyweight and more worried about common health and fitness.It is important to log your weight-loss outcomes every week. Check your body weight each week's time, and keep a publication of what you eat. By observing which meals and beverages we eat, we encourage ourselves to create smarter weight-loss alternatives.
If you let yourself get starving, you will begin to think with your belly rather than your head. Prevent creating inadequate diet by always have a selection of healthy treats loaded and prepared whenever you are out. Packaging your own lunchtime for institution or perform is recommended to purchasing meals from a eating place or making preparations made meals. If you carry your lunchtime to perform with you, it is simpler to eat healthier. It is much less expensive than consuming out so you will find that you aren't only dropping bodyweight, but you are assisting your wallet!The most effective way to shed body weight is to incorporate diet plans with improved exercising. While it is not necessary to exercise each and every day, you should do so several times every week.

If you want to stay away from rubbish foodm don't allow it in the house! You can't eat what you don't have, so keep your cooking area supplied with healthier meals. Clean fruit and vegetables are always good alternatives when considering treats that are healthier for you. Do not buy meals you know you will binge in. By creating these kinds of meals incredibly annoying to treat on the less opportunity you have of splitting down and consuming them.Bring a companion when you exercise. If we are on our own, we often create justifications to reduce ourselves of more difficult obligations. You will be able to encourage each other. You can also help each other by providing guidance, inspiration when required and motivation when someone gets to a problem in their weight-loss voyage.

When the year comes to an end it's natural to ask yourself what you have accomplished; which steps you have taken towards the life you dream of; which challenges you have managed to overcome; which fears you have started to fight.
Have you had the courage to start over for real?
Are you disappointed by life or with yourself?
Are you mourning missed chances?
Don't Drag Yourself Down
Life is not about now or never. Just because you chose fear and predictability over courage doesn't necessarily mean that you've given away opportunities forever. Chances come and go.
You just need to be prepared when life offers you another one
Without making mistakes, you wouldn't be the person you are right now. If you're not happy with the outcome, don't worry. What matters is being aware that your past decisions haven't put you on the right path.
Insight is the first step towards change. It's about making new choices. It's about growing and progressing.
You can start over. Think of what has happened as a learning and then, take according measures. In order to do that you have to reconcile with yourself.
Don't let fear block your way again and make you take the line of least resistance when life asks you to grab the chance. You have all it takes to succeed if you dare.
Stop Mourning Missed Chances
Living in the past is a show-stopper and a guarantee for an unhappy life. Holding on to things you can't change anymore is no way forward.
It's okay to think about the past; it's not okay to live in it, or, even worse, to blame yourself for making mistakes that led you to being where you are now.
Stop it. The moment is gone.
There will be a new one that might hold an even better chance than before. If you keep living in the past, you won't be able to see the opportunities life holds for you in the present. Just because you've missed out on chances before doesn't mean that you have sealed your fate.
Stop asking what if. You will never know what could have been. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. And maybe it was even for the better. Now is another time, another you.
Forgive Yourself
It's easier to forgive than forget. Forgiving is essential to be able to heal. Healing is necessary to be able to align your life anew and start over. All that matters is how you judge what happened.
We are prone to being very unforgiving when it comes to ourselves whereas we are quite forgiving towards others. Change the perspective and imagine being another person listening to your own story. Would it be really that hard to forgive?
Think about it.
Making mistakes and being fearful is human and no reason to be disappointed with yourself. Everyone missed out on chances in their life at some point. We learn by trial and error. It's a natural process. Don't hold it against you.
Cherish What You Have
Where there is light, there is shadow. Always. Make sure you look for the bright spots and what you have done right. No one is a complete failure (even if your internal critic tells you otherwise).
You will never be able to welcome new opportunities if you can't cherish what you already have. Your life is the result of chances you have taken boldly – even the one's you've missed or deliberately let go of. It's a juicy mix of choices you've made. For sure, they were not all for the worst.
There's a lot of strength and wisdom inside of you – despite your doubts and fears. Be thankful for what you already have in your life. Then, start looking for new opportunities.
No mistake defines your entire life or even you as a person. We're talking about imperfect moments in time and not about absolute truth. It's about finding out why you are in this situation now and what you could do differently next time to cease a given chance.
How many tests did you have to take more than once? Probably, you haven't been happy about it but you sat down and learned harder in order to pass a similar test next time.
Same applies to life.
No situation will be exactly the same again, but you can prepare for comparable ones and grab the chance when it happens.
For example, if you didn't accept a luring job offer because it required you to move, and now you're unhappy with the position you've taken instead, figure out why you were not willing to commit to the opportunity in the first place.
Was it because you were afraid to be left to your own devices? Was it because you actually like being where you are? Was it because your partner had objections?
Once you know the reason, think about what you would do differently next time. If you can't find a reason, maybe you're even happy with the choice.
It could be just a single aspect that makes you doubt your decision, e.g. you actually like the job but you feel underpaid. Gather your accomplishments and ask for a payrise instead of planning to leave.
Believe in Change
Life means change. You are more capable of adapting to new circumstances than you give yourself credit for. Remember situations like taking on a new project or moving to a new house; saying good-bye to your best friend; finding a new partner.
Those are moments in your life which require you to adapt and, in the end, to change.
Change is one of the greatest gifts in life. You can start any time anew. You just have to make the effort. It's about being willing to take on the opportunities that are offered to you; to become fearless instead of doubting yourself and your capabilities.
As long as you can draw hope and energy from your missed chances you will always be able to find new ones along your way to a fulfilled life.
Start Over
When the new year starts, forget about what you haven't accomplished yet. What happened before doesn't count anymore. These thoughts will only block your way. Nothing is worse than standstill. Every single moment is new and full of possibilities. Embrace them. Be perceptive.
Make up your mind what you could do to make change happen finally. Tackle your fears in any way you can. Look for help if you think you can't do it alone.
If you try and fail, it's no big deal. You've made a start. It's not necessarily about the big chances anyway. It's about knowing what you really want in life and how to achieve it. Set your goals and take action.
It's the journey that leads to the reward in the end. Each step, no matter how tiny, will make you grow and prepare you for the next one.
What's your experience? Have you ever mourned missed chances? How did you deal with it? Please feel free to comment below.

Good deal for the cowboys if Parcells can keep T.O. under control like he did Keyshawn.... Damn things just keep getting more and more interesting in the NFC East...ALLAS (Ticker) - Controversial standout wide receiver Terrell Owens has reached an agreement in principle with the Dallas Cowboys, according to a published report. The Dallas Morning News, citing a pair of unidentified sources, reported Friday that Owens is expected to join the Cowboys with a formal announcement in the next few days.
Owens, 32, played just seven games with the Philadelphia Eagles last season before the club deactivated him for conduct detrimental to the team. In his second year with the team, Owens had publicly criticized numerous members of the organization, including quarterback Donovan McNabb.
Owens was not pleased with his contract and remained a constant source of news even in his inactivity. He and agent Drew Rosenhaus appeared more than once on national television to discuss the conflict with the Eagles.
Despite missing more than half the year, Owens managed 47 catches for 763 yards and six touchdowns.
Undeniably one of the finest talents in the game, Owens has caused controversy on numerous occassions in his 10-year career, the primary reason he will be joining his third team in four seasons.
Notable in his odd actions came against Dallas in 2002, when, after scoring a touchdown for the San Francisco 49ers, he sprinted to midfield and celebrated in the middle of the star at Texas Stadium.
He also has had many signature moments of a positive nature, especially in Super Bowl XXXIX when he returned from a broken leg that robbed him of the final two regular season games and two playoff contests to make nine catches for 122 yards.
A five-time Pro Bowl selection, Owens has 716 catches for 10,535 yards in 142 career games with the 49ers and Eagles.

Flies Around the Net – July 2017
The Fly Tying of Son Tao
I recently started to notice some beautifully tied flies posted by Son Tao. After seeing a friend from Indianapolis post that he was fishing with Tao, I was surprised to learn he was here in Indiana. I contacted him and below you can read a little about him. He has also been touched by Project Healing Waters, which is a fantastic organization that help vets. In a very short time, you can see by the photos, that Son has skills! Check out his work below!
From Son Tao:
"I'm 44 years old and currently live in Indianapolis, Indiana. I grew up in Pennsylvania but have bounced around for the past 16 years since I am active duty Army. My current rank is Master Sergeant.
I've been tying for 14 months now. I was first introduced to tying by a Korean War vet as a way to deal with post traumatic stress. I've been deployed 5 times and have seen some unimaginable horrors around the world. After dealing with numerous surgeries and the horrors of war, I was in a dark place. Fly tying provided me with an avenue to escape those memories. It relaxes my mind and focuses my attention in a positive way.
Other than that, I thoroughly enjoy tying classic patterns. I'm a history nerd and find the story behind Flies as interesting as fly fishing itself. So when I got started, I naturally was drawn to Catskill style dry flies."

Bradley Special – Ricky Bassett
Ricky Bassett tied up this beautiful Bradley Special. This was an old dry fly pattern tied by the Dettes of Roscoe, New York. The fly shop, Dettes Trout Flies, is still there and ran by their grandson, Joe Fox. I think the body of this fly is especially interesting.
According to the book, The Founding Flies, "In the late 1930s, William Bradley, an early member of the Beaverkill Trout Club, requested that the Dettes custom tie this fly."
Ricky is a skilled fly tier that continues to practice the Catskill dry fly style of tying. He did a great job on this one!
Materials list:
Bradley Special Size 14
Wings: Mallard
Tail: red brown spade hackle, rooster
Body: sparse amount of red fox squirrel spun between two strands of red silk.
Hackle: Red brown rooster

Xinhua news agency, Beijing, June 18 (reporter Prince Shao Jie) according to the Russian TASS, the Russian military said in a statement recently, extremist organization Islamic state leader Abu Becker Baghdadi is likely to be killed in a military operation in late May in Russian, the Russian Defense Ministry is investigating whether Baghdadi death.
The statement said that in May 28th, Russian forces launched an air strike on a target in the northern suburbs of LA city, Syria. At that time, some high-level figures from the Islamic state were meeting there. "According to intelligence, the leader of the Islamic state, Baghdad, attended the meeting and was cleared in the attack."
Although Baghdadi is killed is subject to final confirmation, but at present, the relevant parties to the Islamic state in the last two important stronghold, the organization was declared the "capital" of La and the largest city of Mosul in northern Iraq, launched the attack has made great progress, the Islamic state is battered.
[two] "nest" extreme atrophy
On the 6 of this month, the Kurdish armed forces led by the "Syria democratic army" started the liberation of La campaign, from the East, North and West, at the same time attack against la. Meanwhile, the U. S. - led international coalition has also targeted air strikes in the region's Islamic state.

On the other hand, the battle of Mosul has reached its last gasp, and the Islamic state has little control over its territory. Mosul's government forces are preparing for the final battle after a pledge to liberate the country before Eid al fitr. Many speculated that the last battle would probably have happened at the Nouri mosque in the old city of Mosul, because it was the site of Baghdad's first public appearance in July 4, 2014.
 , in June 11th, the "Syria democratic army" soldiers talked to each other in the western city of La, Syria. (Xinhua News Agency / Law Update)
Iraqi government forces have been hoping to capture the Nouri mosque as soon as possible to combat the morale of the Islamic state. On June 29, 2014, the first day of Ramadan, the Islamic state announced the establishment of the so-called "Khalifa state" led by baghdad".
[exterior line operations] to relieve stress]
While the Islamic state suffered heavy losses in LA and Mosul, suspected terrorist attacks were frequent in some European and Middle Eastern countries. Since March this year, Britain has 3 terrorist attacks and caused massive casualties; in June 7th, located in the Iran capital of Tehran's parliament building in Iran and Iran the late supreme leader Khomeini mausoleum were terrorist attacks, killing at least 17 people were killed and 52 injured......

Analysts believe that in Syria and Iraq stronghold was besieged, the Islamic state in the middle of the site is compressed, and hoping to launch a large number of terrorist attacks outside, disrupt international security order, the transfer of attention, in order to ease the pressure inside the war.
Shanghai International Studies University Middle East Research Institute deputy director Sun Degang said, "the Islamic Republic" in the international community in the fight against, have lost a lot in Syria, Iraq and other countries to control land, the terrorist organization tries to line operations, ease the pressure is.
[shunting, return, into the ground, more difficult international anti-terrorism]
At present, the Islamic state in the Middle East to drubbing. But the demise of the terrorist entity could lead to the diversion and return of a large number of terrorists, and the organizational structure is likely to go underground. More terrorists from the Middle East will return to the country after the split, which will bring more uncertainties and threats to the security order of the international community. If we do not take precautions, the terrorists after returning will make the international anti-terrorism more difficult.

China Modern International Relations Institute of security and arms control institute director Li Wei believes that the combination of new media and network terrorism, the threat of terrorist activity became larger, and to prevent and combat the difficulty is more challenging. In addition, the United States and its allies on the Islamic state target of continued air strikes will also result in a large number of innocent civilian casualties, inspired the people in western countries at the bottom of society "marginalized" immigrants and minorities "Sadness" effect, the terrorist attacks occurred more often in Western countries.
Li Wei said that terrorism is often associated with complex international relations, conflicts and conflicts, and terrorist organizations are making use of these factors to achieve growth and expansion. The ideal way to combat terrorism is to promote the international fight against terrorism, promote regional disputes and promote the development of developed countries and developing countries.Collection reportPublish

Neymar drops his first single: #NEYMUSICO is here, and it's so bad it's amazing
#Neymusico is here. We've all been waiting for Neymar's musical debut with bated breath since he announced it on Monday. Yeah, it was cool that he and his little Barcelona buddies skated up and down Celtic's back with complete and utter disregard for human life yesterday, but Neymar told us we were getting new music on Wednesday.
Today is Wednesday, and Neymar's single is here.
And y'all, it's just as bad as I hoped.
Neymar opens the video by saying he's here to give us some first-hand news: he's recording his first album.
He's going to give us a teaser.
And then Neymar begins to sing.
Neymar croons: "Para jugar la pelota, yo necesito ousadia alegria, estar com los parças. E tois." Roughly translated, "to play (soccer), all I need is audacity, happiness and to be with my friends, That's all."
The lyrics are fun, if wildly simplistic. But many of the best songs are.
BUT HIS VOICE. So gloriously bad. It's everything I hoped for. He sounds like a beginner violinist playing loudly to drown out a cat giving birth. His voice is similar in timbre to a wandering albatross in distress. It's tough to tell whose voice is worse, his or a wounded sea lion. He sounds like a 7-1 loss to Germany.
I'll give him credit on piano: he at least plunked out a few decent chords, and generally steered clear of large screw-ups. But his voice. Oh, man, his voice.
But the voice makes it all. Even his buddy, guitarist Gil, who's there to "listen and to analyze" the new tune, can't keep a straight face.
Clearly, Neymar's doing this all in good fun, and he's in on the joke.
But this joke is the BEST joke.

Sire de Grugy back on Sunday
Former champion chaser Sire De Grugy is set to return to action at Chepstow on Sunday after pleasing in a schooling session on Monday.
Sire De Grugy returns to action at Chepstow this weekend.
Having made both Un De Sceaux and Sprinter Sacre find top gear with two big runs last winter, coming hot on the heels of a glorious victory in the Tingle Creek Chase, Sire De Grugy's season petered out in the spring with disappointing efforts both at Cheltenham and Sandown
However, writing for Betway, trainer Gary Moore on Monday described the 10-year-old as being "bang on course" to make his return.
"He galloped on Saturday and, after the rain we've had, was able to school this morning. Jamie [Moore] popped him over 12 fences and he did it nicely. We were both delighted with him," he said.
"This weekend's race is over two and a half miles and we will know where we stand with him afterwards. Whether or not he still has the gears to be competitive in a Betway Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, only time will tell.
"He certainly doesn't seem to have lost any speed, though. When I turn him and Dutch Masterpiece out in the paddock, he normally wins the sprint to the other side and that horse was beaten a nostril in a competitive sprint at Ascot on the weekend.
"The reason for heading to Chepstow is that he likes it there having won at the venue twice already. In all probability he should also get his preferred soft ground there too. So, we will hold off making any firm plans for him until we get Sunday out of the way."
Meanwhile, Moore suggested that his other two high-class two-mile steeplechasers, Traffic Fluide and Ar Mad, could end up bidding to emulate Sire De Grugy in the Tingle Creek Chase.
"They are both coming along nicely and are on the comeback trail," the trainer said. "Touching wood, everything seems good so far.
"They are both cantering and if they remain in one piece, there is a chance they could both head to the Tingle Creek at Sandown in December.
"As with Sire De Grugy, we won't make any firm plans until we get that first run out of the way. There is every chance that both could stay at two miles or both could step up in trip. We'll just have to see."
