Preface It is known that more than 90 percent of the major pests in the Pacific are from exotic introductions. The development of transpacific air and sea traffic since World War II has increased movement of pest insects and diseases. In recent years, the introduction of new pests averages about 3.5 per year in Hawaii and 2.00 per year in Guam. As Micronesia strives to improve its economy by increasing its agricultural productiv­ ity, it is imperative that quarantine programs be strengthened. Under the initiatives of Dr. Kiritani and Dr. Sato, the Food and Fertilizer Technology Center (FFTC) of the Republic of Taiwan funded this First Regional Quarantine Training Workshop in Micronesia. Repre­ sentatives from all Micronesian islands and the Philippines and resource personnel from Taiwan, Japan, the South Pacific Commission, the Northern Marianas College and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences of the University of Guam actively participated in this workshop. This volume presents all country reports and provides technical information pre­ sented at the First Regional Workshop on Plant Quarantine held at the University of Guam, Mangilao, Guam. One major recommendation is to promote harmonization of quarantine regulation throughout the region. We thank Dr. Jeff Barcinas, Dean/Director of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, and the University of Guam for allowing this workshop to take place. Special thanks to Dr. Saito for obtaining microscopes from the Japanese Government for distribu­ tion to country representatives, and also to Continental Air Micronesia for graciously transporting the equipment from Japan to Guam. We also thank the University of Guam Endowment Foundation for providing support for publication. R. Muniappan L.Austin O.H.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.

  • The Duke of Sussex's Irish Manuscript (Rylands Irish MS
    © Copyright protected – it is illegal to copy or distribute this document The Duke of Sussex’s Irish Manuscript (Rylands Irish MS 22) RICHARD SHARPE, WADHAM COLLEGE, OXFORD Abstract Rylands Irish MS 22 is a copy of Geoffrey Keating’s Trí Biorghaoithe an Bháis (1631), made by the well-known scribe Risteard Tuibear in 1710, a professionally made vernacular book, making available for circulation a widely read devotional text. In the last two pages the scribe permitted an apprentice to copy, and as a result he had to write the ending a second time more correctly. Like several other books made by Tuibear, it belonged to Muiris Ó Gormáin in Dublin in the later eighteenth century and is found in his book lists from 1761 and 1772. Inside the front is the book-plate of the Duke of Sussex, and the catalogue of his library from 1827 shows that this is a book given to him by Sir William Betham a year earlier. When the Duke’s library was auctioned, this was sold to a London dealer, reappearing in sales between 1866 and 1869. It was bought by the Earl of Crawford and came with all his manuscripts into the Rylands Library, where for its origin and history it stands out from a collection of books largely made for or by Denis Kelly, of Castle Kelly, in the mid-nineteenth century. Keywords: Irish language manuscripts; Keating’s ‘Three Darts of Death’; Risteard Tuibear; scribe; Duke of Sussex’s library; Rylands collection; acquisition One of the Irish-language manuscripts in the Rylands collection has a more exotic history than the others.

Board, it is my pleasure to welcome all of you to Thomas MacDonagh Park, Nenagh for today's game. Once again the Senior Championship was run on a straight knock-out system with defeated teams taking part in the County Championship qualifiers. The K.O. element gives a great edge to all games and some fine entertainment was served up. This year's North Championship was very drawn out, due to the evolvement of players on a number of county panels. Tipperary's tridium with limerick and their subsequent participation in the qualifiers severely limited the availability of weekends to play our matches. This is a situation that is being looked at by Central Council and needs to be changed The Hibernian Inn, Nenagh are again sponsors of the Senior Championship and we are very grateful to Martin Morris and his staff for their support and hospitality during the year and I would appeal to all patrons to reciprocate this support whenever possible.
