The selection of Kevin O’Malley comes after an unusually long wait by the White House of some 18 months to make the call on the diplomatic post. A prominent trial lawyer in St. Louis and a second- generation Irish American (his grandfather came to the US from Mayo), O’Malley has 35 years of experience in litigation, “specializing in medical negligence cases, federal The Banshee Bar on Dorchester Avenue has become home base for the Boston chapter of the American white collar criminal de- Outlaws, a club that supports the US soccer team now making a run at the World Cup.

The Irish Mountain Ringlet Peter Eeles Abstract: The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish.

[This is an update to the article written in February 2014]. The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish. The Irish Mountain Ringlet is truly the stuff of legend and many articles have been written over the years, including the excellent summary by Chalmers-Hunt (1982). The purpose of this article is to examine all relevant literature and, in particular, the various points of view that have been expressed over the years. This article also includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance and some of the sites mentioned in conjunction with these specimens are shown in Figure 1.

  • The MOUNTAINS of IRELAND

    The MOUNTAINS of IRELAND

    The MOUNTAINS of IRELAND PREFACE The appeal of the mountains is, to some extent, a personal and subjective thing: each of us has some particular and individual response to the beauty of the hills. To that extent, this book, which attempts a brief survey of the Irish mountains, is a personal impression. These are the features of the different groups which I myself select as their special characteristics. And with this description of the hills, I have tried to include some account of the history and geology of the mountain country, and to venture to indicate some of the meanings of the Irish place-names. Ireland is not a mountainous country in the ordinary sense of the word. Yet her small groups of mountains dominate the far more extensive plains, and are themselves true mountains and not mere hills. Each range, too, differs from all the rest, so that the Irish highlands include almost all the variations to be found in mountain scenery, from the smooth uplands of the Wicklow hills to the broken rocks of the Reeks at Killarney and the bare quartzite of the Twelve Bens. Mountaineering is still a young sport in Ireland and the hills are not as well known as they should be either to the Irish people themselves or to our visitors. And to the extent that the mountains are not known, this account of them is a signpost to the hills. D.D.O.P.M. August 1955 S L I E V E A U G H T Y Perhaps the most striking impression of these uplands, through which the Shannon has to carve its way from the levels of the Central Plain to the open sea below Limerick, is gained by sailing up from that town to Lough Derg, when the river, and its canalised section above the powerhouse at Ardnacrusha, seem to be leading one into the depths of the hills Mils which are framed by the white concrete bridges spanning the canal section, symmetrical, like a Japanese painting.

It was only their second World Cup appearance and they have not been back since. It took Turkey ten attempts to qualify for their first UEFA European Championship final tournament, and after losing all three matches at EURO '96 they reached the quarter-finals at UEFA EURO 2000 under Mustafa Denizli. They went one step further eight years later in Austria/ Switzerland, a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Croatia putting Fatih Terim's team into the semi-finals, where they lost 3-2 to Germany. After missing out in Poland/Ukraine, they returned to the finals at UEFA EURO 2016 by qualifying as the best third-placed side over the nine preliminary sections.
  • Mayo Walks County Mayo

    Mayo Walks County Mayo

    1 Mayo Walks Sample walks are described. The meaning and background to placenames is given. In Irish culture, these describe geology, recall folklore, record history. They can contain words surviving in Scots Gaelic. Scots and Irish Gaelic were carefully kept as one, until the Gaelic Homeland was sundered. Full appreciation of this Brief would need a Gaelic-speaking guide, interacting with the Tour Guide. County Mayo Introduction County Mayo possesses great geographical contrasts for visitors. They may enjoy a variety of experiences, with the ocean as an ever-present backdrop. Awe-inspiring cliffs of the north coast and those on the western edge of Achill Island surely provide the country's finest coastal walks. More inland, the lonely Nephin Beg Range is a world apart from the very public (and rocky) Croagh Patrick. The name, Néifinn Beag , the Lesser Nephin, derives from Nemed . He was the son of Agnoman of Scythia . He sailed to Ireland from the Caspian Sea, in 1731 BC, in the chronology of the Historian, Priest and Poet, Seathrún Cétinn . Mweelrea (Cnoc Maol Réidh – the Smooth, Bare Hill), the highest peak in the county, is challenging. Waymarked routes provide, in all, more than 200km of walks through moorland, forest, farmland, villages and towns. History The earliest settlers were Neolithic farmers. They had occupied the area by c3000 BC. Stone buildings and burial places were mostly enveloped by the subsequent spread of Blanket Bog, a factor mainly of Climate Change. Some 160 Megalithic tombs or dolmens are known. Walkers more commonly encounter forts {duns ( dún – hill fort ) or raths ( ráth – ring fort )} dating from c800 BC to 1000 AD.
