Noonans in the Annals and Histories of Ireland
901. A change of kings in Caisel i.e. Cormac son of Cuilennán succeeded Cenn Gécáin. Chronicon Scotorum
In Munster, the role of churchman and statesman was blurred; abbot-kings ruled the kingdom in the 9th and 10th centuries. The strong Eoghanacht dynasty fell apart in 901 and did not recover for more than fifty years. A learned abbot descended from Conall Corc named Cormac O'Cuilennan was elected king of Cashel in spite of the handicap that his last royal ancestor had lived eleven generations previously; no more eligible candidates for kingship must have survived within the ingen (nine degrees of kinship) of the Eoghanacht dynasties.
908. The battle of Belach Mugna was won by the Laigin and Leth Cuinn against the men of Mumu, and Cormac son of Cuilennán, king of Caisel, fell… Chronicon Scotorum
In his seven year reign Cormac O'Cuilennan united Munster, drove out the Vikings and gave Munster great prosperity. He was also a poet and a scholar. In 908, Flaithbheartach mac Ionmhainéin (Flathbhertach Mac Jonmuinein; his first name translates as 'Wealthy Noble' but may also have been a play on 'Noble of Berechtuine') abbot of Inis Cathaigh (Scattery Island in the Shannon estuary) with the support of the principal nobles needled the abbot-king Cormac O'Cuilennan into openly confronting the Uí Neill high-kingship by asserting claim to Leinster, and marching on Leinster to exact head tribute (borahmu) in the name of Leath Mogha. The Ard Rí and his army of Connaught were joined by the Deagades and marched to Leinster's defense.
Now when Cormac son of Cuileannan, had been ten years on the throne of Munster in peace and prosperity, as we have said, he was egged on by some of the nobles of Munster, and in particular by Flaithbheartach, son of Ionmhainen, abbot of Inis Cathach, who was of the royal blood, to exact head tribute from the province of Leinster since it belonged to Leath Mogha. Accordingly he assembled and brought together the Munster forces, and when their nobles had come together they resolved to go and demand head tribute from the Leinstermen by right of the partition which was made between Mogh Nuadhat and Conn. But Cormac was reluctant to go on this expedition as he had a foreboding that he was to fall in the adventure. Still he consented to go.

The Munster Eoganacht McCarthys were joined by their Dál gCais allies. In the Munster camp on the eve of battle, Flaithbheartach's horse slipped in mud. Taken as a bad omen, a large part of the Munster force decamped. Cormac offered to make a settlement with Leinster, but Flaithbheartach satirized him:
"From thy feeble courage it is very easy to judge how miserable thy mind and spirit."
Cormac relented, and retired to write his will (which still exists). They faced a Leinster force at Bealach Mughna that outnumbered them four times over. The Munster forces were slaughtered and the omen fulfilled when Cormac was killed; his horse slipped in blood and fell on him. 6,000 died at the battle of Bealach Mughna.
After this Cearbhall son of Muireigen, king of Leinster, proceeded on his way to Cill Dara bringing with him in charge a large body of Munstermen and with them Flaithbheartach, son of Ionmhainen. Then Flaithbheartach was brought into Cill Dara, and the Leinster clergy fell to reproaching him greatly, for they knew well that it was through his fault the battle was fought.
But on the death of Cearbhall, king of Leinster, Flaithbheartach was set free; and a year after Muireann banchomhorba of Brighid accompanied him out of the town and sent a large party of Leinster clergy to escort him till he reached Magh nAirbh, and when he had thus arrived in Munster he went into his own monastery to Inis Cathaigh, and there he passed some time in virtue and devotion, and came out of Inis Cathaigh again to assume the sovereignty of Munster after the death of Dubh Lachtna, son of Maolguala, who was king of Munster seven years after Cormac; and he was for some years after that king of Munster, as is stated in the old book of the Annals of Cluain Eidhneach Fionntain in Laoighis which gives an account of the Battle of Bealach Mughna

914. Flaithbertach son of Inmainén took the kingship of Caisel. Annals of Inisfallen
Flaithbheartach became King of Munster on the death of Dubh Lachtna seven years after the battle of Bealach Mughna. The defeat there weakened and divided Munster so badly that it allowed the second Viking invasion (previously confined to the east coast) to take Waterford in 914 and Limerick in 920 and exact tribute from the Munster chieftains. Flaithbheartach had precipitated an upset of the balance of Ui Neill-Munster power that had existed for over 500 years. It broke the power of Desmond and even the whole of Munster until Brian Boru of Thomond and his Connaught alliance overcame the Ui Neill, the Leinstermen and the Vikings and ruled all of Ireland until his death at Clontarf in 1014.
Flaithbheartach mac Ionmhainéin (Flaherty O'Noonan "who was of the noble blood") became king of Munster at a time when the Munster dynastic succession seems to have been catastrophically disturbed. The previous king (901-) was eleven generations removed from his most recent royal ancestor. A following king (957-) was sixteen generations removed. Presumably Flaithbheartach's claim lay somewhere between the two. The standard four-generations-per-century places Flaherty's royal ancestor between 557 and 626 A.D. Flaithbheartach mac Ionmhainéin's most recent royal ancestor must have been Aodh Caoimh about thirteen generations earlier.
944. A battle-rout was inflicted by the Eoganacht Cellachán of Caisel on the Dál gCais
Cendétigh son of Lorcán in Mag Dúine, in which many fell.
Flaithbertach son of Inmainén, king of Caisel, rested.
Chronicon Scotorum
Flaithbertach, son of Inmainen, 37 years, and he died a natural death.
Caithrem Cellachain Caisil
The Book of Lismore contains a poem by Flaithbertach Ua Hinmhoinen.
959. Dub dá Bairenn mac Domhnaill is killed by his own people. He was elected king of Munster at Cashel even though he was sixteen generations removed from the last king in his ancestry.
970. Inis Cahie was taken by Bryan McKennedy upon the Danes of Limerick, that is to say Imer and his two sons, Awley and Dowgeann. Awley mcIllulfe king of Scotland was killed by Kynay mcColme. Noyman of Inis Cahie (Scattery Island) died. Annals of Clonmacnoise
1007. Newman O'Seanchin…anchorite died. Annals of Clonmacnoise
1059. Just previous to the synod of Boly, the death of Dúnadhach Ua hInmainéin, the Erenagh of Tulach Léis, was recorded in the Annals of Inisfallen.
The position of airchinnech had become so secularized by the 11th century that the erenagh was often a hereditary lay abbot. Subsequently, the family title was comharba (coarb or successor), and the O Noonans were regarded as hereditary wardens or protectors of the church.
c.1100. An outstanding craftsman, Cúdulig U Inmainen, with the help of his sons fashioned the exquisite shrine of St. Patrick's bell, now displayed as one of the great treasures of the National Museum.
Gilla in Choimded Úa Cormaic was a historian and poet of the monastery of Tulach Léis (trén ó Thulaig). His epitome of universal history is preserved in the Book of Leinster poem A Rí ríchid déidig dam. His poem `Aimirgein Glúngel tuir tend' is dated c.1050-1150 on historical and Middle-Irish linguistic grounds, while O'Corrain places him circa 1100-1160. Gilla in Choimded wrote:
Failet se muid sain mebair cummaiscit craeb n[séimhiú]genelaig:
totinsma daerchland ic dul i lloc saerchland re slonnud;
torrchi mogad—mod mebla— & dibad tigerna;
serg na saerchland—etig uath— la forbairt na n-athechthuath;
míscribend do gne eolais do lucht uilc in aneolais;
nó lucht an eolais ní ferr gníit ar muín miscribend.
`There are six ways of note that confound the branch of genealogy: (1) intrusion of base families taking the place and name of noble families; (2) the expansion of serfs, a shameful thing; (3) and the extinction of lords; (4) the withering away of the noble families, a dreadful horror, with the expansion of vassal folk; (5) mis-writing in the guise of learning by the ignorant of evil intent; (6) or the learned themselves, no whit better, who write what is false for gain'.
1111. Tullylease is included in the diocese of Limerick when the diocesan boundaries are drawn up at the Synod of Rath Breasail. The boundaries of Limerick diocese, as given by Céitinn, were as follows: Ardpatrick to the south, and Ballyhoura and Tullylease, the Feale westward…
Tullylease is thought to have remained in the diocese of Limerick until about the year 1206, when the Normans defined the limits of their Kingdom of Limerick (it became the County of Limerick when the twelve Irish counties were established in 1210).
The Noonans/Nunans remained as hereditary coarbs of Tullylease into the 16th century, and were considered the custodians of the site of Kilcoora Church into modern times. Kilcoora (Ceill Curtha, the Sweet-smelling Church) was on the northern bank of the Darrery River, about 1/2-mile above its meeting with the Camuisce, midway between the Gortnatubrid and Killeedy churches, 3 miles west of Springfield Castle.
1230. The death of Donnsléibe Ua hIonmainéin (Donnsleibhe O hlonmhainein), a member of the family Donnrteibe is recorded in the annals. He was a holy monk (i.e. celibate) and chief master of the masons of the Romanesque Cistercian (the strict Benedictine order founded in France in 1098) Abbey at Boyle (Boly), Co Roscommon, Connacht, on the upper Shannon. The Oxford Illustrated History of Ireland states that Ua hIonmainéin directed the building of Boyle Abbey; an inscription under its entry portal claims the same. It is noteworthy that construction of Boly was far more ornate than other Cistercian abbeys, and that Tullylease was purportedly long noted for the skill of its stoneworkers.
1235. The city of Limerick is shired. The Norman invasion of 1169 was the first significant foreign intrusion into Gaelic Ireland. The invading Norman knights ruled the territories they conquered as Liberties. Most liberties, however, quickly came under the English king's administration and system of shires (bishoprics, sheriffs, coroners). Desmond (Munster south of the Shannon), though, remained a Liberty free from royal administration.
1265. Anlane O None was appointed Bailiff of Limerick City in 1265, 1279, 1280 and 1295; (a namesake was a resident of Limerick in 1233).
1301. Maurice Ohynnevan and his son Maurice were both among the clergy in Cloyne diocese.
1305. The Annals of Inisfallen inform us that Tairdelbach O Brien violated the sanctuary of Berchert (and died as a result) and that O hInmainéin, a noble and pious coarb, was seized by his northern neighbors the Uí Chuiléin and Uí Chlainne Inneirgi and put to death. Later in the same year (1305) Mílis Ó Donnocáin and his kinsmen set out to avenge on the Uí Chonaill the death of their coarb but wer slain en route by by Sir Henry de la Chapelle, a Norman knight.
The background of the killing appears to have been that Tuath Saxan owed fealty to the Dalcassian Uí Fidgeinte rather than their southern neighbors the Erimónian Múscraighe Uí Dhonnocáin. Uí Chuiléin were the ruling family of the western section of Uí Fidgeinte known as Uí Chonaill Gabhra (Hy Conail), the territory north and northwest of the Noonans.
1306. The church of Tulach Léis was burned by lightning.
1311. Adam O hynevan was hanged for being in rebellion with the Condons.
1345. Justiciar Ralph Ufford led a troop of Normans, Butlers, de Burghs, and MacMurrough, O'More, MacNamara and O'Brien out of Limerick up through Hy Conail and east to Killmallock before besieging the Earl of Desmond's castles at Askeaton and then Castle Island. By 1351 the Earl was restored, and by 1355 Desmond was made justiciar of Ireland.
1361. An Irish surgeon, William O Neonan (Ouhynaunen) operated on King Henry's son Prince Lionel of Antwerp, the Duke of Clarence and Earl of Ulster, Viceroy of Ireland. Clarence had arrived in Ireland that year on a military expedition to regain the Crown's control of Ulster and Leinster. At the time, Irish were sought out as surgeons throughout Europe, but were outlawed in their own country. McLysaght notes that Ouhynaunen's position was unusual.
1364. According to the Pipe Roll of Cloyne Donald O Henwonhan acknowledged that he held of the lord the seven carucates of Tullylease by the service of two marks yearly. (He also admitted that he was obliged to do in all things as Maurice Chapel should do, and his tenants as the tenants of the said Maurice – who was, no doubt, of the same family as the above-mentioned Sir Henry). Tullylease itself was held in the 14th century by the bishop of Cloyne's feudal manor of Kilmaclenine.
c.1400. Tuath Shaxan an oirir fhinn as d'Ua Ionmhoinéin áirmhim.
Tuath Shaxan of the fair territory I reckon as belonging to Ó hIonmhainéin.
Topographical Poem Giolla na naomh O'Huidhrín
1402. Odo Ohenwonham was a monk in the Cistercian monastery of Fermoy.
John Barry of Leanlara is said to have married a daughter of O Nunane of Castleishane in the early 15th century.
A mid-15th century eulogy on David Roche extols the Lord of Fermoy for an attack on the sept of Ionmhainén (Fine Unmhaineáin) whose king he took as hostage.
1459. The perpetual vicarage of Tulachleys 'long void by the death of Philip Ohyminayn' was assigned to Thomas Ohyminayn, clerk, of the diocese of Cloyne.
1540. At the time of theb dissolution of the monasteries the rectory at Tullylease was said to be 'unlawfully detained by the Coorbe of Tollylyche.'
Greenane Castle, 6 miles south-east of Limerick city, was held by Noonans until the Norman Shane Burke gained possession of it in 1540, six years after the rebellion led by Silken Thomas Fitzgerald, Lord of Offally, during Henry VIII's reign.
1569. The Desmond Revolt opposing plantation of English tenants began (it continued until 1583). In 1567, Desmond fell out of favor as Queen Elizabeth's favorite courtier and was arrested, and in 1569-71 colonization of Desmond was attempted. The battle ended with a 1572 truce and Desmond's release.
1575. Sir James Fitz Maurice FitzGerald departed for the continent seeking military support.
1579. Sir James Fitz Maurice FitzGerald landed in Smerwick harbor, Co Kerry (at the tip of the Dingle peninsula) with the papal nuncio the English Jesuit Dr. Nicholas Sanders and an expeditionary force of 80 Spaniards. James Fitz Maurice Fitzgerald was ambushed and killed by Burkes. 700 more Spaniards and Italians landed before the end of the year.
Sanders survived to join the Geraldine rout of a superior English force at the battle of Gortnatubrid (late September 1579), fought at Pairc na Staille (The Field of the Stallion), just outside the gates of Springfield Castle. 300 English were slain in the rout. The expeditionary force fought defensive battles, including Monasteranenagh, against the 8,000-man English army under Arthur Lord Grey de Wilton, until they were all put to the sword. The army continued to subdue the province, killing Desmond himself in 1582-3. "Never before had such destruction of property or such systematic slaughter been witnessed in Ireland." Sanders, the papal nuncio, died of dysentery in the wooded hills south of Broadford in 1581. "Tradition relates that he was 'borne by four Irish Knights to Gort na Tiobrad."
c.1581. Dominus Corcalius Y Newnane was deprived of the vicarage of Kilshannig.
c. 1582. Donough Nunan was slain in the Desmond rebellion (1579-1582), and his lands and Gardenfield West Castle, or Muskery Nownan, were granted to Robert Stroud.
1582. Glenquin castle west of Broadford was granted to Sir Walter Raleigh.
1583. Sir William Noynyn, priest, was one of the witnesses of the will of Cormac Mac Carthy of Blarney, Lord of Muskerry. He was probably his chaplain.
Gortnatubrid Castle and Muskerry Nownan were confiscated from the Fitzgeralds and Noonans (although it appears that the Noonans got their land back as tenants) and 4,000 Protestant English were "planted" in Desmond by Undertakers (English gentlemen who "undertook" the opportunity to subdue the country). The 1586 Elizabethan plantations in Limerick extended south just to the present-day Cork border. Some confiscated lands were re-granted to the Fitzgeralds and other resident families.
Also in 1583 a Fiant was issued granting a pardon to David mac Edmund Yonnonan of Castleton. Two years later similar pardons were granted to Donell mac Conoghor OHynownayn and to William bachach mac Dermody O Hinownan, both of Co. Cork. These pardons must have had a connection with the Desmond rebellion. The chief of the name, Donagh O Hynowan alias O Hynowan (i.e., the O'Noonan) of Castleishen, went unpardoned.
1584…1586. Survey of confiscated lands, Richard O Nownan held Killrye, one and a half quarters; Knockakreywgg or Knockecreaghe (Knockacraig), one half quarter [one Irish quarter then equalled 377 acres, 26 perches, English statute measure] with woods; Droomecollaghan (Dromcolliher), one half quarter, with woods, waste; Cowleboye (Coolaboy), one quarter, with woods, waste; Gortnegarry, one half quarter; Aharraghe, one half quarter; Ahadaghe (Ahadagh), one half quarter. These quarters, which were all lying waste, were held by o Nownan from John Fitzgerald of Cloyne, who held them from the Earl of Desmond, and were known by the several names of Muskerry Nownan (Múscraí Uí Núnáin), Dromcolliher or Coolaboy. O Nownan held Castlelysine (Castleleishen) and the lands belonging to the said castle, which were also in Muskerry Nownan, directly from the Earl.
1593. In a fiant of early 1593 there is a record of a grant having been made to Robert Stroude of the lands of Muskereye Nownan (Múscraí Uí Núnáin), in the parish of Ballicastilane (Castletown, Limerick), containing 4-1/2 quarters of land (540 acres), "late the lands of Donogho O Nownan, attained". [F.E., 5781]
1597. Donnchadh O Nunane's attainder when a grant of his estate was made to George Isham of Brianstown, Co. Wexford. As well as the castle and lands of Castleishen itself, the estate also included Cloonsillagh, Cloonee, Cooles, Curra, Dromsharule, Gleatan and Belliga – but not perhaps the whole of these lands. When the estate was re-granted in 1605 to Theobald Bourke, baron of Castleconnel only five or ten acres were reckoned in each ploughland, making a total of ½ carucate. It had, no doubt, been pointed out in the meantime that the chief of the name was not the full legal owner of the sept lands.
1600. the Sugan Earl of Desmond was taken prisoner, through treachery, by Dermot O'Connor, and lodged in the fortress of Castle Lishen, but Pierce Lacy with 4,000 men besieged Castle Lishen and set the prisoner free.
1601. Pardons granted to Mullmorie fitz Morish I Nowname, yeoman; Richard and Donell mac Shane O Hununane; David mac Morish O Hononain, Edmund and Shyvery (Séafraidh or Geoffrey) O Hononane, Dermod mac Gilly O Hononane, Dermod en Downey, Morrish fitz William; Conoghor mac Donogh I Hononane of Kilbolane; David mac Dermod, Morish mac Donogh and Dermod mac Teig O Honane, all of Bowles; Donnell O Hononane of Castell ni Lyshine (Castleishen), Riccard, Teig mac Connor and Donogh mac Dermod O Hononane, of same.
1641. Six gentlemen of the Nunans held between them the 8,292 acres of the Civil parish of Tullylease (26 modern townlands). The O Noonan landowners, all in Tullylease parish, were as follows: Teig O Hunan, Dermot mac David Hunan, Morris mac Richard Hunan, Dermot oge O Hunan, Donogh mac Dermot O Hunan and Teige mac Patrick O Hunan, all described as Irish papists. The lands they forfeited comprised: Pollere (Poulavare), named as part of Tullylease, Dromanig, Cloonagown, Raheen and Cahernagh, a total of 2,218 acres. The spoils were parcelled out among Lord Kingston, Sir George Hamilton, Col. John Hamilton and Lewis Craig.
Col. Francis Courtenay of Newcastle Muskereenownaine English Interest held 605 acres, arable 325, pasture 280, which was not confiscated.
In 1641 Muskerry Nownan was surrounded by plantations on all sides that were bound by the contracts to be settled with English tenants.
William Boulster, of Castle Ishen, near Charleville, was tenant to Morris FitzGerald of Castle Ishen in 1641, whom he deposed to have seen in command of an Irish company at the battle of Liscarroll.
1644. Sir Edmond Fitzgerald, Knight of Clonglish, was created a baronet of Ireland on Feb. 8th, 1644. During the revolutionary war of the Commonwealth Sir Edmond burnt his castle of Clonlish to prevent it falling into the hands of the rebels. After the Restoration…In consequence of the destruction of Clonglish, the baronet established himself at Castleishen.
1647. Cromwell's armies attack Ireland. The 11/13/1647 battle of Knockanuss was fought twelve miles southeast of Tullylease; 4,000 Irishmen were slaughtered there.
1649. After winning the English Civil War, Cromwell himself leads a 20,000-man army into Ireland to avenge the Protestant deaths of 1641. The roundheads devastate rebellious Munster again, dispossessing all the Irish. They consign those who had not rebelled to the wastelands in Connaught. Gaelic and Norman lands were granted to English republican officers, soldiers and adventurers who were commissioned to pacify the land.
1654. Civil survey – MUSKREENOWNAINE three ploughlands and a halfe having the ruins of a mill and a church on it meeting on ye East with ye lands of Mullaghharde (Highmount) on ye south with ye Countie of Corke, on ye West with Ballyneleackaine on ye North with Aghveheene. Approx 1200 acres.
During the Cromwellian confiscations of the 1650s, 21% of the confiscations in the barony of Duhallow, Co Cork, were from Nunans. Duhallow barony covered 100,000 acres from the Mullighareiks to the Ballyhouras and south to the Blackwater. A Nunan (O Honane) family in Limerick were transplanted (Cromwell confiscated the lands of Gaelic landowners who had NOT revolted in 1641 and "transplanted" them to barren lands in Connacht; rebels were simply outlawed and dispossessed).
c.1657. The "Book of Dist. And Sur." records that the owner of Castle Lishen before the rebellion was Morris FitzGerald, Ir. Papist. It contained 1,196a. 3r. 8p.
1659. Census lists 12 persons of Connello (barony in Limerick) with the name Nunane, (there are no 1659 census returns for Duhallow barony in Cork), and a further six in the barony of Coshmore and Coshbride, Co. Waterford. In the census the name is spelt O Nonane and Nunane, showing that by the mid-17th century the shortened version of the surname had been fully accepted – no doubt as a parallel to the development of the word ionmhain > ionúin.
1688. The principle names in the Conologh Barony (Upper Connello in Limerick) were Nunane and O'Nunane.
1699. Edmond Nownane of Ballylagh (Ballagh) succeeded in his claim for restoration after the Williamite wars.
1721. Denis Noonane at Ballynoe.
1758. Irish Dictionary, Dr. O'Brien, Catholic Bishop of Cloyne: "The O Nunns, an ancient stock, were hereditary Wardens or Protectors of St. Brendan's Church at Tullaleis in Co. Cork, and the proprieters of all the lands of Tullaleis and Castle Lissen, under obligations of repairs and all other expenses attending the divine service of that church, to which these lands had originally been given as an allodial endowment by its founder."
Near the churchyard in former times stood a building known as Comharbach, i.e., belonging to the Coarb.
1783. Maurice Nunan of Curra, Kilbolane sold lands at Curra and at East Knockaneglass (par. Tullylease) to Denis Nunan of Keeltane, Tullylease.
18th century Noonan headstones may be seen in the graveyards of Kilcully and Carrigaline, north and south of Cork city.
The ruins of an old Nunan castle stood in Gardenfield up to the 19th century.
1822. On the 25th of March sentence of death was passed on twelve men at Limerick Assizes, for various Rockite activities. They were to be hanged in different parts of the county – Adare, Cappagh, Newcastle, Shanagolden. Four were to be hanged in Ballyagran on 13 April. Seven men had originally been indicted for the offence for which the four were condemned to die. They were William Nunan…[and others]… and they were severally charged that they did feloniously seize arms on the King's highway from Sgt. John Delaney and four soldiers of the 40th regiment on 28 February. Returning from Dromcolliher, within a mile of Ballyagran he and his men were attacked by a group of men. As the attack began he and his party were assailed with stones by the attackers, who also had arms. Sergeant Delaney's men each had a gun and bayonet, and he himself a sword and halbert. Two shots were fired at his party, who were then rushed and beaten by their assailants and disarmed…After some more rough handling and threats, the attackers withdrew and allowed the military party to depart.
The attackers in this case did not belong to the landless poor that one generally associates with the Whiteboys. They were said to be "all comfortable farmers". This probably explains how they were able to employ Daniel O'Connell to defend them at their trial…
Thomas Carmody, Francis Marley and Daniel Buttimer were acquitted, but William Dunworth, William Nunan, James Cullinan and Patrick Nugent were found guilty and sentenced to be hanged in Ballyagran, on Saturday, 13 April, 1822. The arms taken in the attack were surrendered while the men were in prison under the sentence of death. The newspapers carry no report of their executions. It is conjectured that they were not executed, in which case they may have been released to exile from Limerick in exchange for surrender of the arms.
1824. Birthdate of 2-15-1824 given on US Naturalizaton Form on 3-22-1854 for Timothy Noonan son of William Noonan and his wife Mary; the birthdate on his gravestone is given as 2-4-1824, while on his death certificate his date of birth is 2-4-1836. Timothy emigrated to America with his brother Jeremiah some time before 1854.
1843. Huge 'Repeal of the Union' rallies were held by "The Liberator" Daniel O'Connell near Tullylease at Rathkeale and Rath Luirc (Charleville) with over 100,000 attending.
In the middle of the 19th century the Noonans retained their right of burial in the chancel of the ruined church of Tullylease. One of them still prided himself on inheriting the guardianship of the edifice.
1916. From photocopy of pages 14 and 25 of Ireland 1916-1966: London 1916 Commemoration Brochure, published by the 1916 Commemoration Committee of London:
The Irish Volunteers formed units in London shortly after the birth of the organisation in Dublin in 1913. With the coming of 1916 and the preparations for the Rising, the majority of the company made their way by devious routes to Dublin to join the Volunteers and to take their place with their Dublin comrades. Those who made the Supreme Sacrifice were Roger Casement (Patron of the London Company), Dan Sheehan drowned at Ballykissane, Sean Hurley, Patrick Shortes, Mick Mulvihill and Jimmy Kingston.
For the historic records, the following took part in the Rising: Joe Furlong, Matt Furlong, Seamus Nunan, Seán Nunan, Ernie Nunan…[20 more names]. Following on the Rising of 1916, the London Irish still played their part in subsequent events…the Nunan Brothers fought and won the Conscription Fight against the British Government. Seán Nunan later became Irish Minister to Washington, and Secretary, Department of External Affairs.
1919. Nora Nunan of Broadford reported that: "My uncle Seán Noonan was very prominent in the Irish war of Independence. He was born in Dromanig (on the farm, above the trenched fort on the hillside). He was a creamery manager by profession but joined the I.R.A. with his brother Maurice (Nora's father). Seán was Brigadier General of the 4th Cork Brigade, and spent some months in jail in Belfast – his wife was also jailed. His name and Maurice's name are both on the I.R.A. Memorial stone in Tullylease Village. In the graveyard in Knanhill there is a memorial erected to the memory of Seán Nunan – it was unveiled by the then Minister for Defense Frank Aiken. (Seán died in 1937, aged 47, of a burst appendix.)" 6/28/01
1922. In the civil war, there were two Free State posts in Broadford. Connie Neenan of Cork relates how on the way to Limerick after hearing of the attack on the Republicans at the Four Courts, his squad was caught between them, and one of them was killed before they escaped to Rathkeale. Springfield Castle was burned during the Civil War as well.
1929. AN PHOBLACHT, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23rd, 1929:
"O Fortune, they has room to grumble Had'st thou ta'en off some drowsy bummel
Wha can do nought but fyke and fumble, But he was gleg as any wumble, That's owre the sea." –BURNS
On the night of Friday, November 8th, two events of importance occurred in Dublin. One was an explosion in a Hall in the suburbs. The rumble was heard a great distance away, and much activity on the part of the police-force resulted. The other – less generally heard of – was a farewell party to one of our old guard, who for eleven years had lived the trying life of an activist Republican in Ireland.
Michael Nunan has left us. His work for freedom is but slightly known. Eleven years ago he came to us from London to add his weight to our big push for freedom. He came from an exiled Irish family which was already fully represented in the Irish ranks. He was the youngest son, but he would not be denied his part.
Collins and Griffith side-tracked the march to freedom in '21. Among those who held on was young Michael Nunan. Our second fight began. In it Michael played an honourable part. Our second fight failed. He stayed on, waiting and working for the cause that is not lost even in defeat. He needn't have stayed. His help would always have been remembered, and, in our own small way, acknowledged. But, he stayed on.
He held on to his position in civil life as long as he could hold on. When continuous police persecution drove him from it, he sought another. But the persecution was so intensive that, finally, it was impossible for him to earn his livelihood. Still, he stayed on.
Raid, arrest, release, raid, arrest, release followed in monotonous succession. For Michael Nunan was suspected of being an I.R.A. officer, and those who, for a weekly pittance, do England's dirty work, were determined to bring him into the dock on the old, old charge of "Treason". For years they have dogged his footsteps and beset his home.
Week after week they have arrested him and lodged him in a prison cell. But, he was efficient, and even through the lost four years of pitiless persecution they signally failed.
But, in one major objective, they have succeeded. They have made it impossible for Michael Nunan, as they have made it impossible for thousands of others, to live in Ireland. And, while they can continue to make life in Ireland impossible for such of our men, our cause is still in defeat.
It was a sad farewell party, that of November 8th. For hard as it is to suffer Michael Nunan's going away, it is as hard to endure passively the system under which he is forced from our midst. And that system made itself evident on the day of the farewell party. He in whose honour it was given was absent from it, until it was almost over. For, his last day in Ireland – like so many previous days – had been passed in a prison-cell. He was arrested in the morning and detained for some hours. On his way to the party he was arrested again and detained until 11 p.m. It was the last act of petty persecution they could inflict upon him. It expressed the low level to which, in their degradation, they have sunk.
We were at many gatherings in Michael Nunan's company, and he was ever the merriest among us. That night as we bade him farewell, we were surely the sorriest gathering ever seen. We made our presentation, and said our say, striving to be cheery. 'Twas no use. For all of us felt the going, not of a soldier merely, but of a friend who had endeared himself – to all.
Michael Nunan is gone. No imperial watch-dogs need now beset his home. One "dangerous suspect" can be struck off the list – at least for a while.
For, the chapter of Michael Nunan is not yet completed. The task he undertook ten years ago is unfinished. Not in hope, but in full faith we say: Michael Nunan will come back.

K9 Studios is taught by our two primary instructors, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Taylor.
In the fall of 1998, Shawn Sullivan came to Sheldon High School to build the program of his dreams--an animation program that would give students real "jobs" working with leaders in the field of Arts Media and Entertainment (AME). After only one year, his K9 Animation Team was literally bursting at the seams with enrollment and they were sweeping every statewide competition. Shawn's program achievements received national attention when a student's film was purchased and shown on HBO television. His program has also won Four National Television Academy Awards of Excellence. Later another team project resulted in a Regional Emmy Award.
Shawn has a strong record as a teacher. He has won several teaching awards and commendations. In 2016, the Walt Disney Family Foundation bestowed the honor by declaring Shawn's program as the best high school animation program in the world. Some of his personal accomplishments include: Elk Grove Unified School District Teacher of the Year, Intel Corporation Innovations in Teaching Award, Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission Art Education Award, Most Innovative Teacher Award, Best of Sacramento Teacher Award, and KVIE Channel 10 Teacher of the month. He also has received the honor of being a "Pioneer in the Teaching Field." Shawn continues to push the boundaries of teaching AME by training his students in the cutting edge area of virtual reality.
During that time, Shawn Sullivan asked Sean to come guest lecture at Sheldon, and it was then that Sean was bitten by the teaching bug. After acquiring his Career Technical Education credentials, Sean Taylor is the newest faculty member of K9 Studios.

Tom Hiddleston's Impression of American Directors ("Badass!")
Tom Hiddleston is fond of saying "badass", treatment but only in an American accent.
Here's his impression of how American film producers and directors speak. (Starts at 34:30.)
"The Americans have this word which I think is untranslatable, sales which is BADASS…" –Tom Hiddleston
Coming from a linguistics background, pharm I am going to take a stab at why Tom keeps insisting on saying "badass" in an American accent.
First there's Hiddleston's argument from, "it just doesn't sound right". Perfectly valid. Native speakers of languages make these decisions all the time.
For instance, in the American Midwest and Appalachian dialects, "that needs done" is a completely cromulent construction, whereas in the dialects of the Eastern seaboard, you would always say, "that needs to be done." (I'm from Philadelphia and I had never heard "that needs done", not even once, until moving across the country.)
In France, a word already existed for the period of time at the end of a week after work days were over — "fin du semaine" — and yet the Americanism "le weekend" ended up becoming the more popular expression for the French to use to define Friday night through Sunday night. Why? Because their "fin du semaine" didn't have the semantic attachment to "the free time in which I am likely to pursue fun and hobbies."
I have more ideas about why Tom Hiddleston insists that "badass" can't be said in a British accent, but I think I'll flesh them out in future posts.

Real-Time Continuous Monitoring of Database Traffic Can Help Retailers Avoid Loss of Customer Data From Database Breaches
SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 23, 2014) - DB Networks, an innovator of behavioral analysis in database security, today announced that it delivers the behavioral analysis and continuous monitoring of databases at the core of the network that can help organizations avoid high-profile breaches, such as those publicized at Target and Neiman Marcus, which result in the loss of customer data and the retailers' reputations.
While details are still being gathered, the findings of the high-profile breach at Target revealed that hackers stole not only 40 million credit cards but also breached database records with personally identifiable information (PII) of at least 70 million customers, including names, mailing addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses. While not uncommon, the revelation of other similar breaches over the holidays has brought the protection of customer data to the forefront. Details common across breaches such as these include the loss of customers' PII over a period of time, sometimes as a result of a database exploit. The largest known breach at a U.S. retailer was in 2007 at TJX Cos Inc., where more than 90 million credit cards were stolen over approximately 18 months.
"Retailers have not come clean on all the facts of these attacks, but in Target's case it appears an internal database was accessed and customer data was stolen over time," said Brett Helm, CEO of DB Networks. "The scope of these breaches is truly shocking -- this is a wakeup call that organizations need to get serious about their information security. The fact that breaches are perpetrated over such a long period of time is truly unconscionable in this day and age. Real-time monitoring of database traffic and alarming when rogue commands are detected can dramatically limit the scope of such a breach."
DB Networks' IDS-6300 intelligent security appliance is the industry's first next-generation Core Intrusion Detection System (IDS). The IDS-6300 is the industry's first Core IDS that combines behavioral analysis and advanced continuous database communications monitoring, helping organizations avoid and be instantly alerted to database attacks, including advanced and Zero-Day SQL injection attacks. The solution also addresses specific compliance requirements within regulations such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, and NIST spec 800-53.
In addition to highlighting the need for enhanced security solutions that provide continuous monitoring and core network threat detection, the recent breaches at organizations such as Target and Neiman Marcus emphasize another critical information security issue. The details of these security breaches are not shared in a timely manner or with sufficient details to facilitate improvements to security systems. Retailers claim shoppers' credit card information and PII are once again safe simply to lure back shoppers, but without the chance for security fixes these types of massive exploits will continue.
As a result, legislation is in the works which would mandate timely reporting of security breaches which can help consumers once their information has been compromised. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy earlier this month introduced a new version of a 2005 bill that would set criminal penalties for intentional or willful concealing of a personal data breach that causes economic damage to consumers. It also ensures that conspiring or attempting to commit computer fraud would face the same penalties as completed offenses. Sen. Tom Carper (D.-Del.) has also discussed reintroducing a bill that creates a reporting standard for breaches. Accurate and timely reporting of breaches in compliance with this proposed legislation is facilitated by continuous monitoring of core network systems and activity.
About DB Networks
DB Networks is an innovating behavioral analysis technology provider in the field of database security. Developed for organizations that need to protect their data from advanced attacks, including Zero-Day attacks, DB Networks offers effective countermeasures against SQL injection and database Denial of Service attacks. Database attacks happen rapidly -- in a matter of minutes -- and bypass traditional perimeter security measures. DB Networks' unique approach uses behavioral analysis technology to automatically learn each application's proper SQL statement behavior. Any SQL statement dispatched from the application that deviates from the established behavioral model immediately raises an alarm as a possible attack.

Some three months after undergoing shoulder surgery, Philadelphia Sixers rookie Michael Carter-Williams is not yet cleared for full-court hoops.
The Sixers' front-office, though, doesn't sound overly concerned about the recovering health of the reigning NBA Rookie of the Year. Per Philly.com:
Sixers GM Sam Hinkie spoke about his prized player's recovery on a conference call with media members on Tuesday. […] "So far, so good," Hinkie stated when asked how Carter-Williams recovery was coming along. "I haven't seen the full report as of late. I know he can shoot, and he's been working out pretty hard."
"Last I heard, he's not cleared for five-on-five contact," Hinkie stated, before pausing and adding in: "He did hit a homerun in a softball game which I teased him about."
Carter-Williams' shoulder surgery is going on four months in the books, and while it is likely too early for his lack of contact to cause concern, it would be nice if he was cleared to do what he is going to have to do for the Sixers this season.

We are a group of creative people, who plan and design spaces that make a difference such as hospitals, schools, churches, and so much more. Over the years, we have discovered it takes a diverse set of talents to design successful structures that are large and also small—complex as well as unassuming.
CDH is a nationally recognized design firm consisting of a professional team of architects, interior designers, and specialists, who are committed to client-centered design. We listen to our client's needs to provide project driven and design focused solutions. We work as an integrated and collaborative group.
Our offices are under one roof, which saves time, effort, and money for our clients while helping us to work more efficiently. It also means we can collaborate easily and quickly with one another.
We believe the buildings we design have a lasting, positive impact on those who use them today and who will use them in the future. Every week more than 75,000 patients receive care in a CDH designed hospital or some other medical facility we have designed. Each Sunday over 500,000 people worship in churches we have planned and designed.
Along with these numbers are the thousands of people, who study and work in classrooms and educational structures we have designed. So this is what we do best: we transform common building materials and ordinary spaces into places of healing, worship, learning, and growth.
CDH Partners is a leading sponsor for the 2017 Northwest Georgia Heart Walk, which benefits the American Heart Association (AHA).
CDH is a sustainable design firm. We provide fully integrated services to produce high performance solutions. Listening, communicating, and documenting are essential to our process.
Our goal is to engage, inspire, and enhance the human experience by creating designs that connect a building's purpose, function, and context to those who use it.
Those who work at CDH are people of vision—people who solve ordinary and, at times, not so ordinary problems. We also are people, who care deeply about those we know and about those we serve each day. We design lasting solutions for neighborhoods, communities, and ultimately our country. This is why our desire for excellence is never satisfied because we know we are building structures and spaces that will last and be used by generations to come.

With his gladiator name, Spartacus should be destined for greatness, but his weak threads and droopy webs make him the laughing stock of escaping flies and moths. Humiliated and hungry, a confounded Spartacus gets a helpful tip from a mouse and soon spins the strongest threads into unbreakable webs. But what if his web traps all the flies, moths, birds and even airplanes--forever? Faced with such daunting consequences, Spartacus decides his "old, loppy threads" may be just fine. Appropriately armed with gladiator helmet, shield and spear, Spartacus tells his story in the first person as he casts silken threads and weaves floppy webs across double-page spreads. Delicate watercolor-and-pencil illustrations in muted browns and grays rely on simple shapes, white space, arresting angles and surprising close-ups to provide a spider's-eye peek at Spartacus and his diminutive engineering feats. Readers should enjoy this eight-legged hero who succeeds by being himself--if they can get over being worried about how he will feed himself.

As my time in Sao Paulo draws nearer to its end I see the city transform before me. The once sinister and confusing cacophony metamorphosed in to friendly bars and smiling faces. Light seeps in to the darker places, infusing them with safety and normality. What once seemed so different, so other, is now mine, my own familiar world. No longer inhabited only by strangers, now friends and familiar faces.
On Friday I went out later than usual and on my own, travelling across the city in a taxi. A simple and common enough task in my old Brighton life. In that world I would zigzag the city throughout the night seeking out friends and entertainment until the sun rose and I found my way home. But not here, not in Sao Paulo. It was, in part, a conscious decision. The new lifestyle, the new me. But it was also fear of the unknown. I was afraid of so many things in this wonderful crazy city. Where I was going, how would I get there, would they rob me, shoot me, crash in to me. Danger lurked in every unfamiliar corner.
But on Friday as my taxi zoomed the busy streets and I remembered how I once was so afraid, afraid that it was dangerous to drive, afraid that I would be in an accident, attacked, lost, sold in to slavery, missing, murdered, remembered the doom scenarios constantly filling my gringo mind. Now, as the taxi made its way to a new part of this world I didn't know, I realised, I was comfortable, and maybe that was why it was time to go.
When I arrived in Brazil almost 2 years ago I relished the unfamiliarity and challenge, I thrived on not understanding the rules or language. Now I contemplate a return to my familiar world in England I feel so sad to let it go. I have become addicted to unfamiliarity, obsessed with not understanding, proud of survival.
In my moments of homesickness I longed for the familiarity of home. The normal tastes of English food, sitting at the bar in a pub, my beloved and beautiful Brighton beach on a windy day, the friends who had known me for more than 10 years, they who had already forgiven me for foolish acts in my 20s and loved me in my 30s. On those days I craved familiarity. Sought to recreate a little piece of England in my flat, eating roast potatoes, drinking tea, British TV blaring, sending messages home, connecting to the familiar.
I have grown to love São Paulo. When I flew in from my last trip to Nicaragua I felt like I was coming home. I was coming home, home to my familiar life. I wasn't lost or confused, I knew the route the taxi would take, I knew what to do, what to say. But a small piece of me is saddened by the loss of mystery. Of course I will never be a true Paulista, a Brazilian, totally immersed, but I can see how it would be easy to stay, I can see how I could adapt, that this could be home.
So I have decided to leave, I'm still not sure yet where I will end up next. I have been given a very dangerous gift. The gift of choice. I have a whole world to choose from. Safer now in the knowledge that I am able to make a home in amongst unfamiliarity. That I even enjoy the confusion and struggle of the new place.
I want my classroom too, to be a space filled exploration, discovery and unfamiliarity. I don't want my classes to know what to expect when they enter the room. I want them to be occasionally surprised, shocked, confused and excited by the lessons. And I want this for myself too. I am most afraid of returning to the UK and returning to my old apathy, sunk in to a life of frustration and laziness. The electric shock of unfamiliarity Brazil gave me has bought me back to life. I think I need the unfamiliar to continue to feel alive.

Audio: Neon Indian – Sleep Paralysist
Green Label Sound's first release of 2010 was by none other than Austin indie synth-pop outfit Neon Indian. Entitled "Sleep Paralysist," the song was written by Alan Palomo, lead mastermind of Neon Indian, and it was his first new original release since his critically acclaimed 2009 debut album Psychic Chasms. "Sleep Paralysist" was produced and mixed by both Palomo and Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear and the result is a collage of catchy melodies, playful beats, and lo-fi haze, all signature sounds of Neon Indian.

UNPO Organizes Round-Table on Indigenous Rights in Brazil
The Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization, sponsored by the Nando Peretti Foundation, in cooperation with the office of Brazilian MP Padre Ton, will be convening a round-table discussion on 25 November 2014 from 10:00-12:00 at the Brazilian National Congress. The Brazilian MP Sarney Filho and Mr. Erik von Pistohlkors from the EU Delegation to Brazil will also attend as notable speakers. With the participation of Conselho Indigenista Missionário Cimi and 40 leaders of the State of Maranhão, panelists will raise awareness about how environmental devastation, depletion of resources and a general disregard for indigenous rights undermines indigenous communities in Brazil, and pushes them further into poverty and insecurity.
Nothing focuses international attention on a country than a major sporting event, and this year's World Cup in Brazil was no different. In a country still riven by stark inequalities, where the benefits of development are not evenly shared, the matter of how Brazil treats it very poorest and most vulnerable is subject to greater global scrutiny than ever before. The consequences of football's greatest spectacle for Brazil's indigenous minorities, and their human dignity, were far less visible. Indeed, as indigenous lands and resources are the financial motors behind so much of Brazil's economic miracle, it is not difficult to trace a link from indigenous reservations all the way to the gates of the Maracanã Stadium.
Brazil is heavily investing in development and infrastructure, but at what cost? The cost of environmental diversity and vitality? At the expense of future generations? How does it affect the most vulnerable and unrepresented indigenous peoples? Will benefits of development be equally shared?
Roundtable Speakers:
- Brazilian MP Padre Ton (Partido dos Trabalhadores)
- Brazilian MP Sarney Filho (Partido Verde)
- Mr. Erik von Pistohlkors, 1st Councellor for Political Issues and Human Rights, EU Delegation to Brazil
- Conselho Indigenista Missionário Cimi
- Iva Petkovic, Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization
The proposed initiative will build on the progress made at a conference convened earlier this year on 22 January 2014, in collaboration with Richard Howitt (S&D) and Catherine Grèze (Greens/EFA) MEPs at the European Parliament in Brussels. The aim of the conference entitled "Awá: On The Brink Of Extinction – Indigenous Rights in Brazil" was to assess the current and future courses of action related to the protection of indigenous peoples in the Amazon and seize the opportunity to initiate dialogue with Brazil. The conference proved to be very successful in establishing a new forum and bringing together different actors and perspectives to the discussion and cultivating new outlooks on the question of indigenous peoples' rights that could potentially make Brazil a leading international model on this matter. The conference opened new opportunities of cooperation an established new ties between UNPO and a Brazilian Member of Parliament (Padre Ton) and FUNAI (Brazilian Government's National Indian Foundation), while also opening new channels of dialogue with the Brazilian Government, which will be further cultivated at the proposed follow-up conference.

The impressive £5.2million Galashiels Transport Interchange building was officially opened today – one month ahead of the opening of the Borders Railway – and the building will open to the public on Monday.
A commemorative plaque was revealed by Scottish Borders Council leader, Councillor David Parker and David Houston of the Galashiels Roads Consultation Group, while a further plaque, marking the burial of a time capsule at the site, was unveiled by Councillor Gordon Edgar, SBC executive member for roads and infrastructure, and TD1 Youth Club member Dawson Little.
The centre, which links the new railway to the bus network, as well as providing a route to the town centre, has a large waiting area, tourist information, ticket machines, toilets and showers, with a café – to be run by Born in the Borders – opening soon.
Upstairs, bus company First has moved into its office space, while there are other office spaces and conference facilities with fantastic views over the town, which are available for lease.
The building was built by the council's development partner Hub South East Scotland and its appointed contractor Morrison Construction.
Hub South East Scotland's chief executive Paul McGirk symbolically handed over the keys to Mr Parker after the unveiling.
Mr Parker told us: "It's absolutely tremendous.
"This is the culmination of 17 years of hard work that has gone into delivering the railway as well as all the changes that have been taking place in Galashiels.
"It's marvellous to be here this morning to open the Interchange. It's a significant improvement on the transport facilities we have had in the Borders until recently.
"And it's going to be a very important landmark building for the community which in years to come will play a very important part in Galashiels and in the wider Borders community."
Mr Parker also revealed that an agreement has been reached with First and other bus companies about the use of the Interchange.
He said: "There was no question about that, we were always going to reach an agreement and we have done so.
"Therefore, First and other bus companies will use it, and all the negotiations around how it would operate and how much it would cost ... all that has been resolved and everyone is looking forward to being here.
"First has already got buses on the concourse and are starting to use the facility and they have already moved into their offices up the stairs."
As the Interchange is such a big and bold building, it was always going to divide opinion.
While all at the official opening were supporters of the building, not everyone in the community is so entranced.
On our Facebook post earlier this week, Toni Higgs commented: "Hate the building, looks like a tin can that will reflect the sun. Why couldn't they have just had bricks all the way up instead of the silver stuff... The cost of the building would have been better spent to benefit the community."
And Borders Railway Objections wrote: "It is a nice building actually. Not sure it had to be that high but if they put a heliport on top the Queen will like it."
The time capsule was put together by the youngsters from the nearby TD1 Youth Hub.
Eleven-year-old Dawson Little revealed a few of the items in the capsule which will be opened in 2065.
He said: "We put in a selfie stick – as we thought it would be quite humourous for people to find it in 50 years time, a map of Gala as it is now – we hope it will get better by then but this is a massive improvement, and a new plastic fiver from this year."

Tools required for Hardware Procedure
- Star screw driver
- Plastic separation tool.
- Soldering gun.
- Cotton cloth for cleaning.
Hardware Solution
- After removing the case of Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the very first thing that you need to do is to unplug, clean and re-plug on-board display connector and check.
- Clean display connector in the similar way you did on-board connector.
- Now check your entire motherboard for any traces of water damage, in case you find moisture on any part of the board clean it with the help of cotton cloth. Besides that you can also use blow dryer for few seconds in order to completely eliminate moisture from your phone.
- If the above mentioned steps doesn't work for you then re-solder on-board display connector pins, as sometimes the pins become dry solder and cause different problems.

If you are lucky enough then simple cleaning of your display connector and motherboard will be able to resolve your problem, else if you have to go with changing your Note 3 display, which will surely be a very costly deal for you.

Phil Knight Pledges $400 Million to Stanford University
Stanford University has announced a $400 million gift from alumnus and Nike founder Philip H. Knight (MBA '62) to establish a graduate-level scholarship aimed at preparing a new generation of global leaders.
Named in honor of John L. Hennessy, Stanford's outgoing president, the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program will admit a hundred high-achieving students from a range of backgrounds and nationalities who have demonstrated leadership ability and civic commitment and have been nominated by their undergraduate universities. Scholars will receive funding for three years to pursue a degree in one of Stanford's seven graduate and professional schools, complemented by additional courses designed to develop their capacity to lead transformational change.
With a $750 million endowment, the Knight-Hennessy Scholars will be the largest fully endowed scholarship program in the world. In addition to Knight's founding gift — the largest cash gift from an individual in Stanford history — the program has received gifts of $100 million from Robert King (MBA '60) and his wife, Dorothy, and $50 million from Stanford board chair Steven Denning (MBA '78) and his wife, Roberta (AB '75, MBA '78). The Kings' gift will fund a cohort of scholars from less economically developed regions of the world and will also support the King Global Leadership Program, a training and development curriculum in which all Knight-Hennessy Scholars will participate.
"We wanted to create something enduring, that would be unlike anything else currently available to the world's brightest minds, and that would make the biggest impact possible toward solving global challenges affecting the environment, health, education, and human rights," said Hennessy, who will serve as the program's inaugural director. "We will bring together outstanding, courageous scholars to benefit from Stanford's innovative educational environment, who then go on to lead governments, businesses, nonprofits, and other complex organizations and develop creative solutions to effect positive change."

Needlechasers of Chevy Chase, decided to take a wool class at a quilt shop on the eastern shore of Maryland. The quilt shop is called Serendipity and is located in Dagsboro, Delaware. It is a delightful shop with all sorts of fabric lines. They also carry wool and yarn. They are located right on the way to the beach, about 30 minutes from Bethany Beach, Delaware. One of us has a place at Bethany so we made it an overnight field trip.
We had a great time and the wool class was lots of fun. We each made a wool pincushion. Mine is pictured on the upper right. (I got a little carried away making French knots!) I had not worked with wool before so I was happy to learn a new skill. We used Perle Cotton No. 12 and Chenille needles, size 24, to make the buttonhole stitch. The pincushions are filled with crushed walnut shells.

This week I was invited by the lovely Krystie from Woddlebots to drop by and peruse her spring summer collection. I discovered a delightful range of dresses, skirts, tops and shorts in colour, glorious colour! Since I can't resist a cheerful collection, I thought I'd share a few of my favourites to brighten up your day.
Woddlebots is the creative project of West Australian designer Krystie; Mum to 4.5 year old {going on 13} Kaleb and 2.5 year old Kyla. Krystie is now into her 4th year of designing her label, which is inspired by friends, family and in her own words… "keeping my little ones little for as long as possible".
All of the items in the Woddlebots collection are handmade by Krystie from 100% natural cottons and are made to withstand the rough and tumble childhoods of even the rowdiest littlies. Krystie is a self-confessed fabric addict and I'm loving her selections for this season. I especially adore the combination in the Retro Flowers and Dots series.
When she's not designing her line and picking out fabrics, Krystie spends her time sewing, taking photos, editing photos, loading products & cleaning her house {if she can find the time!} She also regularly attends local handmade markets, so if you're lucky enough to be in WA, be sure to drop by and say hello!
You can find Woddlebots Handmade Kids Clothing online, and at selected independent stockists.

Hello Bety! I had left a comment on your post "Valentine Thoughts" from December 28th. Here again is the beautiful paper I was asking about (the third card with the "XO"--the one with the cute little pink flowers). Could you please tell me if this is from Melissa Frances, the name of the paper, and if you know of ANYWHERE I might be able to find some. I found alot of the resin embellishments on Ebay, but I cannot seem to find any of the older lines of paper. I think your work is just fabulous! Everything you create is so uniqe and simply beautiful. Another question I had for you is what kind of paper do you ususally print your vintage images on? I would be so grateful if you could please respond when you have the chance. My email address is: firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous creations with all of us!!

touches of candlelight and clean lines. It's the simplicity that calls to me. I can look at soothing images of Nordic homes for hours, no kidding. (It's made me yank things off walls and re-think a few spaces too. Ha!)
Somehow the craving for a soothing color palette made it's way into my Thanksgiving table decor (which I set about five minutes ago) and I ended up with my favorite place settings of all time. (So of course, I grabbed my camera, snapped a few pics and had to share. Its the blogger in me.) Last week, when Adrain and I were headed off on our weekend away, we stopped in at Ikea for a champagne bucket and a few of their dotted flutes. I was sad when I saw that they were out of stock, but thrilled when a sweet worker took apart the display and gave me a discount on six of them! (Happy heart moment!)
six day pop up shop... I LOVE YOU!! You make my whole family cheer every time an order goes through, because my phone makes a "cha-ching" cash register noise that makes our day!! (If you have already ordered, your items just shipped this afternoon and if you order between now and Sunday night when I close, your items will ship on Monday, first thing!) This cute card is going into all of your orders! (Click here to shop)
I feel like I can't go without saying this, so if this is for you, then it's really from God because I didn't plan on adding this part, but I feel like I'm supposed to... There is always something to be thankful for, even if your teenager is slamming doors and saying things that hurt, your baby is up all night crying and you're exhausted, your loved one has a life-altering illness or you're life is up in the air with a job situation, finances, cancer or any other unknowns. God doesn't take breaks and He is faithful and can be trusted, because He never leaves His watch over you. Don't give up or let your weary heart or fears overtake you. He sees YOU. No matter where you're celebrating or who you're celebrating with this weekend, or what you're facing beyond this weekend, He is your resting place and safe harbor in every storm. We can thank Him for that, if nothing else. And a thankful heart, is a peaceful heart.
—granite-strength and safe-harbor-God—
So trust him absolutely, people;
lay your lives on the line for him.
God is a safe place to be."

Gateway Media
Kings of Kustoms
(Sacramento) – Gateway Media announced today that the Kings of Kustoms pilot episode will make its debut this month on the Motorland Network channel on Hulu.
"The first episode features the legendary Gene Winfield, who created some of the most iconic cars in film and television," said Gateway Media President Wayne Johnson. "We're excited to be working with TV4 Entertainment, and are particularly pleased that the pilot is now on The Motorland channel on Hulu (http://www.hulu.com/watch/715880) and also at www.Motorland.TV.
Fans of Blade Runner, Robocop, Back to the Future and other Hollywood hit films are already familiar with Winfield's iconic custom vehicles, which broadens the appeal of the show far beyond the car buff audience.
"Director Randy Bond and the Gateway Media team are raising the bar in the car and driver category," said TV4's Chief Operating Officer Chris Slinger. "We look forward to seeing more episodes from the Kings of Kustoms franchise."

The View From 1776
Obama Terrifies the Mullahs
At the beginning of his administration, the president proclaimed that he would appeal to the better instincts of his fellow Muslims in Iran, giving them until this month to renounce their bad intentions.
- I imagine it might seem outrageous* to many, but should we not simply withdraw from the UN? There is certainly little doubt that it is a useless and somewhat harmful institution. Providing the world's third rate dictators a podium in NY city does nothing to advance our interests. And the UN "peacekeeping" troops currently maintained in over a dozen locations around the world constitute a ridiculous waste of money.
Perhaps a middleground would be to announce that henceforth we would contribute a reduced share of the UN budget. Since we are just one of the many nation members--all equally interested--we should pay the same amount as every other nation. This would provide equality of imput by each member state.
Additionally, the cost to us of having them housed in NYC should be alleviated. The diplomatic and expionage subterfuges of that location reduces parking for NYC residents, burdens our already overworked police, encourages espionage against us, and costs money! Why can't they rotate their silly meetings every year to a different country. (It's not like anything actually ever gets accomplished at these assemblies.)
I suspect the UN employs thousands of bureaucrats managing their various subsidiary operations and those could be placed on a competitive bid basis in some lower cost locale where rents are cheaper. With the internet age upon us, and with its communication ease, those agencies would be just as functional anywhere--the Congo, Cambodia, Burma, Ethiopia, Paris, or wherever they got the lowest rental bid. The fact that they have been in NYC for over half a century should not be a deterrent. Indeed, they have overstayed, and part of President Obama's message has been we need CHANGE. And in this case he would be absolutely correct.

Yesterday's long run was to test my sore ass. I was somewhat pain free the first 10 miles. After that, I had to spend time stopped on the trails stretching. The run went well, until I ran out of gas at mile 17. Besides an omelet for breakfast, I forgot to eat anything else or take anything with me...except water and a Clif bar. Doh!
Today's run was ok. Stiffness in my right calf, but my arse didn't bother me too much. Once again, some stretching during the run helped tremendously.
This Saturday is Wade's Big Adventure. I ran into Wade Saturday as he was out marking the white trail on the WRT. I am glad he picked the white trail...it's more of roller coaster ride that the others.

NewsWire: Studios do battle to roll dice on 'D&D' - USA Today
Dungeons & Dragons could be battling it out on the big screen as soon as Christmas.
Rumors have been spreading on the Internet that the sword-and-sorcery movie, based on the popular role-playing game, has been troubled by a bulging budget. Online gossips have hinted darkly that cost overruns might stall the necessary special effects.
They have been poorly informed. While the movie did end up costing $36 million (the original budget was reported at $28 million), the filmmakers have had little trouble completing the effects. Jeremy Irons (Lolita), Thora Birch (American Beauty) and Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie) star in the film, which finished shooting a year ago and should be completed by November.
With power producer Joel Silver (Lethal Weapon) involved, the thought was that D&D would end up at Warner Bros., where Silver has a long relationship. But other bidders have emerged, including New Line Cinema, Warner Bros.' corporate cousin.
If New Line secured the rights, it would be a good fit. The company knows how to market genre films (A Nightmare on Elm Street was its first winning franchise) and is in the middle of making three movies based on another famed fantasy title: Lord of the Rings.
Depending on who picks up the film, it will be released at Christmas or early 2001.
