County Cork RLA I Program September 2014 County Cork RLA I Program September 2014 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The RLA I Program is a fundamental discretionary trading program managed by Ronald L. Anderson. The program trades grain and oilseed futures and futures options traded primarily on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). The majority of the program's trades occur in the soybean complex in the form of soybean crush spreads which allow Mr. Anderson to trade the relationship between the price of soybeans and the combined value of the products derived from soybeans, i.e., soybean meal and soybean oil. Mr. Anderson's core methodology starts with an analysis of fundamental factors that affect supply and demand such as weather forecasts, economic trends, import/export activity, and governmental policies. Seasonal trends and patterns are taken into account and technicals are often considered for optimal timing of trades.

  • William, James, Hanora, Michael, John, Daniel
    The Kellys The Kellys he Kelly family has Irish roots. An examination of Irish records shows that as recently as 1900, TKelly was the second most common name in Ireland (Murphy was fi rst) and there were Kellys located in many areas of Ireland. According to the “Irish Family Names Directory,” Kelly was predominantly found in the counties of Derry, Galway, Leix and Meath, with Galway being the largest concentration. Signifi cant numbers can also be identifi ed with Counties Donegal and Roscommon. These are all areas that are in the midlands to northern regions of the country towards the West. There are also some Kellys who hailed from West Cork where the famous IRA revolutionary Michael Collins called “home.” All of these areas were Gaelic-speaking well into the 1800s. Prior research about the Kellys was unclear about the exact location of their home in Ireland. It remains unspecifi ed but we have made progress (see below). Various individual recollections formed most of the evidence, including my aunt & cousin Bessie Kelly Beirne (1893-1986). Some of these indicate that our Kelly ancestors declared that they were from Clonakilty, County Cork, Ireland. The Immigration and Naturalization Service and several census year records indicate the year of immigration but not the specifi c birthplace. Some local cemeteries and headstones as well as some newspapers record the Kelly origins as Ireland, County Cork and/or Ballymacarder (sic). It should be noted that none of our immigrant ancestors could read or write and may have responded to census and INS questions with the last location that they recall in Ireland.

  • Topical Issue Debate with Minister Ross
    Topical Issue Debate Transport Infrastructure Provision 3:00 pm Pat Buckley (Cork East, Sinn Fein) Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source I welcome the opportunity to speak to this matter. The R630 is a regional road linking Whitegate with the N25, a national primary road at Midleton, and Lakeview roundabout in east Cork, which serves the Cork to Rosslore Europort via Waterford city. This regional road from Whitegate also carries traffic from adjoining areas such as Upper Aghada, Lower Aghada, Rostellan, Saleen, Ballycotton, Clyne and Ballinacurra, just to mention a few locations. Whitegate village can boast to be the home of the only oil refinery in Ireland but the most startling fact is that it accounts for over 40% of Cork's road tonnage, and it travels on the R630 all year around. There is also Aghada power station, which is Ireland's largest, and this means the regional route is extremely busy. The Minister can understand why. Unfortunately, all this traffic must enter the N25 at Lakeview roundabout at Midleton, which is constantly choked with long tailbacks every morning. Midleton town council had approached what was then the National Roads Authority, now Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, a number of years ago about having an extra slip lane at the junction between the R630 Whitegate route and the N25 to alleviate this very problem. Unfortunately, over the years nothing has happened. The commuters who use this route day in and day out have grown very frustrated with the lack of progress. More worrying is the question of safety in the area, particularly with regard to emergency services and the ambulance service in Midleton.

  • Proposed Extension to Gibbon's Quay Storm Outfall, Kinsale, County Cork
    Proposed Extension to Gibbon’s Quay Storm Outfall, Kinsale, County Cork Archaeological Assessment Prepared by: John Cronin & Associates Burnside St. Oran’s Road Buncrana Co. Donegal F93 RW84 On behalf of: RPS Innishannon, Ballincollig, County Cork May 2019 Executive Summary This report presents the results of a desk-based assessment of known and potential archaeological constraints in the vicinity of a proposed pipe outfall at Gibbon’s Quay, Kinsale, Co. Cork (Figure 1). The proposed works are still in the design phase but will generally comprise the installation of an approx. 40m long outfall pipe that will extend from an existing outfall within the quayside to beyond the Low Water Mark within a subject area shown on Figure 2 of this report. Indicative plan and section drawings of the potential extent of the proposed outfall works at the time of writing are presented in Appendix 2. Construction of the outfall shall involve dredging of the sea bed to create a trench to contain the pipework and a concrete surround. Following installation of the pipework, surround and armour, the trench shall be backfilled with dredged material. The study area reviewed for this desk-based study comprised the subject site and an area extending for 500m in all directions from its boundary. There are no designated archaeological sites within the subject site or within its close environs and the nearest recorded example is an 18th century Custom House (CO112-058----) located approx. 115m to the north. The subject site is located within an area of Kinsale developed during the 18th century and is located c.440m to the south of the zone of archaeological notification surrounding the medieval core of the town (CO112-034001-).

Keith Dineen Student Number: 116339861 BL4001 Research Project Supervisor: Dr Simon Harrison BSc (Hons) Ecology and Environmental Biology Page 1 of 42 Name of student(s): Keith Dineen Name of civil society organisation/community group: Youghal Tidy Towns Name of community group liaison person: Ned Brennan Academic supervisor(s): Dr Simon Harrison Name and year of course: Ecology and Environmental Biology Date completed: 9th March 2020 What is Community-Academic Research Links? Community Academic Research Links (CARL) is a community engagement initiative provided by University College Cork to support the research needs of community and voluntary groups/ Civil Society Organisations (CSOs). These groups can be grass roots groups, single issue temporary groups, but also structured community organisations. Research for the CSO is carried out free of financial cost by student researchers. CARL seeks to: • provide civil society with knowledge and skills through research and education; • provide their services on an affordable basis; • promote and support public access to and influence on science and technology; • create equitable and supportive partnerships with civil society organisations; • enhance understanding among policymakers and education and research institutions of the research and education needs of civil society, and • enhance the transferrable skills and knowledge of students, community representatives and researchers (www.livingknowledge.org). What is a CSO? We define CSOs as groups who are non-governmental, non-profit, not representing commercial interests, and/or pursuing a common purpose in the public interest. These groups include trade unions, NGOs, professional associations, charities, grass-roots organisations, organisations that involve citizens in local and municipal life, churches and religious committees, and so on.

  • Fairhaven Oysterhaven, Kinsale, County Cork Viewing Strictly by Prior Appointment Fairhaven Oysterhaven, Kinsale, County Cork
    Fairhaven Oysterhaven, Kinsale, County Cork Viewing Strictly by Prior Appointment Fairhaven Oysterhaven, Kinsale, County Cork A stunning waterfront property commanding a spectacular elevated position with wonderful sea views, total seclusion and private beach FOR SALE FREEHOLD BY PRIVATE TREATY Located at the end of a hidden cul-de-sac, within 30 minutes of Cork city and set on a sunny, south-facing site of c. 0.75 hectares, this exceptional property commands one of the most outstanding coastal settings imaginable, yet within easy reach of an International airport. Built to an outstanding specification and finished with top-line fittings, the accommodation extends to some 280 sq. metres with extensive balconies and decking areas affording panoramic 180° views over Oysterhaven, the Sovereigns and out to the Atlantic. The challenge to create a “Fairhaven” was given to Architect Richard Rainey, and that he did...this house is a celebration between openness and intimacy. Richard made this house revel in the spectacular setting and it breaks down all barriers between inside and out. The result is a clever and sophisticated hierarchy of spaces with each room situated to take full advantage of the indoor/outdoor living. The owners set about fitting out and decorating this house to exacting standards and hired Cork based Interior Designer Fiona O’Keeffe to achieve this. The level of detail is flawless with a sophisticated style and yet it feels like home. The flow of space has carefully been considered with the entrance, kitchen-dining, living room, master bedroom suite and guest cloaks all on the upper level with the guest and children’s rooms are on the ground level with a very large and practical TV room.

Cork in valleys underlain by Carboniferous Limestone. These are hemmed in by ridges of Devonian sandstones and conglomerates 2 COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND: Cork Geological Map of County Cork Green:Green:Green: Silurian; Beige:Beige:Beige: Devonian sandstones and conglomerates; Dark blue: Lower Carboniferous sandstones and mudstones; Light blue: Lower Carboniferous limestone; Brown:Brown:Brown: Upper Carboniferous shales and coal. Geological history The rocks in Co. Cork largely belong to the Devonian (415-360 million years ago [Ma] to Carboniferous (360-300 Ma] periods. However there is a small occurrence of older Silurian rocks in the northeast of the county on the edge of the Galtee Mountains. For millions of years during the Devonian Ireland was part of a large continent. In general the climate was seasonally wet, and a sparsity of terrestrial vegetation allowed dunes to form in places. Temporary rivers flowed towards the south and in times of rainfall these became torrents with flashflooding and they carried coarse cobbles and pebbles as well as sands downstream. These later were also lithified and are called conglomerates (coarse) and sandstone that collectively make up the Old Red Sandstone.
