According to current figures published corona virus statistics display that out of approximately 28,000 + cases there have been 1,770 deaths, a steep incline. Are covid restrictions the answer?
Figures show a tremendous 13,057 cases have occured in County Dublin. This compared to the apparently second worst affected county, County Kildare, currently at 2,174 known cases.

According to a newspaper report in the wake of the inaurguration of Donald Trump, he was once a speech writer for Barak Obama. A seeming little known fact. Obama’s speeches, particularly in the beginning were very well received in Europe and elsewhere but unfortunately his term didn’t bring big changes. Colonial influences may have held him back. Can the two American parties now begin to work together for the good of America and the world?

Before his inauguration, Donald Trump who once said he would like to stop American carnage was said to have explored possibilities to be independent.

How many of Irish descent still living in northern Ireland? Possibly not many. It’s also getting more difficult for Gaels to live in the south. Problems are poor or lack of services. Similar reports abroad. Hospitals are an area of concern, no care taken. Can be abusive.

During the last decades Republicans and former republicans are thought to have travelled south with a hope to move, the system seemingly reluctant to help. With regard to recent discussions regarding a united Ireland, many northerners appear to be moving south but may not be republicans or Gaels. The seeming royalists who have moved south of the border, predominate on tv, have jobs in administration and are thinking about the possibility of staying.

Criticism due regarding the treatment of women has been directed towards Iran and other middle eastern countries, even Ireland; true but lesser so. Islam is often believed to subject women but in reality the belief is cultural elements have been influential, thought to stem from male domination. According to history, individuals in ancient Arabia who toured and traded in groups as a means of livelihood were left to die in the desert when disagreements occured.

Iran, first subjugated seemingly by Islam, now the west also, are guilty of the most extreme cruelty. With regard to Ireland, there is also a degree of vigilanteism from political components, especially towards women. Arguments centre around where an individual was born, denying Gaels the right to settle, thus fulfilling u.k. detail. Believed to be a reason why various political factions, seemingly ignoring the phenomena have been mistrusted.

Religion, never an issue in Ireland, can not be equated to further trouble, catholics seemingly being assimilated. There is however, due to various migrations of people from different areas, a movement towards nationalism from previous non nationals. Dispersal of local populations being the reason.

The grandparents of Grace Kelly supposedly lived near Newport, County Mayo, now believed to be a non national area. Local history is interesting regarding Newport, now seen to be happening elsewhere. According to some accounts, schools were set up by the u.k. in various areas, Ballycroy included, and children had to go. Besides this there were evictions. In some areas residents were coerced to join the protestant denomination with threats of eviction; the protestant denomination being the church of Ireland, and political delegates not from the south. Some farmers joined, the Kellys being one clan. Reports are of a falling out with priests who advised against compliance. Difficult advice.

Twenty five to thirty percent of farmers are believed to be in need of cash supplements. The president of the Irish farmers’ association is calling for extensions to the Glas scheme, citing eu guidelines. Not thought to be an eu construct, the extensive rules in glas have been the subject of criticism and not in the animals’ interests. A new environmental REPS scheme has been mentioned but sprays are currently used. Unnecessary in animal agriculture and bad for the animals.

A detail said to be of concern to many, including farmers is a perceived lack of transparency with regard to nursing home costs that necessitate the selling of surplus property. Nursing homes, rather than being government lead are thought to be a successful business venture for some individuals. Costs are beyond most peoples’ pocket. Detail including the selling of surplus property for fees has been criticised for not being transparent. Reportedly, recommendations from the 2015 Review of the Nursing Homes Support Scheme, entitled ‘A fair deal’ is not believed to have been implemented to date.

The ecumenical movement is often identified by its political involvement with regards to referencing some political candidates, and the inordinate criticism of others, which isn’t Christian. It is thought to be a takeover from the church of England, in the form of Parish Priests being replaced by anglican priests, often unbeknown to parishioners. Terms such as Anglo catholic abound. Consequences are changes in policies, often sweeping; critics criticised unduly; spiritual directors as delegates under supreme command and ecumenical candidates in administrative positions. Results in people being told how to behave, and discrimination on the grounds of culture or dissent. May result in no services or worse. Individuals or groups becoming targets. Not Christian.

Reports of bears breaking into cars and eating the stuffing from seats in Alaska is surely down to hunger from over fishing.

Hezbollah, a contingent in the middle east reportedly goes unrecognised by Britain. Thought to have been voted in in Lebanon in 2005, according to news recently, the government seemingly consists of a coalition with an as called christian bloc.

A leader of the christian church in Lebanon is criticising the government and calling for new elections; believed to be ecumenical. Citizens via western media accuse the government of corruption, but in a recent interview a Lebenese man told media Hezbollah were not believed to be the guilty ones.

Lebanon’s financial crisis reportedly stems from rebuilding works caused by bombardments during the war years being left uncompleted, and disagreements regarding payment, leading to extortionate interest rates.

Teenagers were a phenomena thought to be of the 1950’s. Before, living with parents and helping parents was followed by marriage; didn’t normally convene. What changed was probably a mixture of culture and capitalism. A need may have arisen due to a perceived breakdown in family relationships, thought to be due to the effects of war and subjucation. Leads to a breakdown in civility.

One response to that need was capitalism in the shape of legal drugs. Fizzy drinks, sometimes containing what are now class a drugs lead to much revelry. Phenomena still exists in the form of illegal drugs. Lithium was an ingredients in some drinks as a calming influence to counteract the effect of other drinks. Introduced as slimming aids, phenomenon became unpopular as people became addicted and began behaving irrationally; one reason why drugs are hated irrationally, people’s behaviour when taking them can be above and beyond expected limits. Laws changed though the drinks continued to be a phenomena and drugs were passed on illegally. Mainly natural derivatives found in Bolivia etc.

Similar chemicals were made in the laboratory and prescribed by doctors. Their use as slimming aids has been curtailed but not before causing much destruction. Some chemicals are currently used in symptoms of child depression. Thought to be ADHD though the cause is almost never discovered. The solution is intricate and involves the whole family.

Culturally, youngsters attempted to find their own answers. Lead to the as called generation gap, new music replacing old ballads and sometimes an attempt to find new values, though not always. Disordered patterns have a way of continuing on, especially when similar drugs and drink are used as avoidance. Often exceed their parent’s limits.

Presiding cultures and those associated, seemingly having self interest tend to blame individuals according to circumstances, for example the unemployed, people with drug problems etc. Can become abusive and leads to misunderstandings rather than finding a solution that might help.
