Disadvantages Of Turboprop Engine



Northern Ireland is in shock - in recent days have committed suicide here ... children. Eleven year old girl committed suicide on Thursday, thirteen died Friday. Youth suicide is a dramatic problem of this country.

Nobody really knows why it happens. Why do young people in Northern Ireland suddenly no longer want to live, when in fact his life is still ahead of them. Northern Ireland is in third place in Europe in terms of average number of suicides in the population. Worryingly, the number is increasing from year to year. And this is the case for years. Why? About this may try to write at the end.

First facts. All of Ireland - with a special place in the North - is one of the highest suicide rates throughout the EU for young people. Only in 2008, committed suicide in NI 282 people. Given that a population of Northern Ireland is a little more than the 1.2 million inhabitants are getting pretty dark. Only during the last holiday in the area of \u200b\u200bBelfast to a suicidal death, decided to close to thirty teens.

In some places in Belfast, is even worse - in the words of the leader of Sinn Fein, the Catholic neighborhoods of West and North Belfast in 2010 only took their own lives in 1921 of young people. Young, ie under 25 years of age. Almost two thirds of killing the people of Northern Ireland are men and 35 years of age. - More young people die on their own hand rather than a result of road accidents - Gerry Adams said in October 2010 for a special vigil dedicated to the memory of another victim of suicide. About Ardoyne I wrote "last" - that is, on the occasion of one of the last entries that tell of the July riots in this part of northern Belfast. This place deserves serious, however, a separate story. This is one of the places in Belfast, where the number of suicides, and so much more than a high local average. I recommend wyguglanie fotocastu "Ardoyne Suicides" . I do not give a link because it is currently not available - I hope that disappeared from the network only for a time, because the document is moving.

Suicide is increasing, especially among young men. And now we are starting to kill the children. Ciara Doherty was 11 years old. Family found dead in the bathroom on a Friday night. The day before, found a 13 year old friend Martin Rooney, the boy died after being brought to the hospital. Both lived on the outskirts of west Belfast. She porządniejszej district, he had more social housing estate. If you click here, and you cast Ludka to see a picture of the street at point A, see the characteristic for a group of teenagers poorer neighborhoods, watching the stranger - and the car looks, indeed, Uncle G. vehicle as strangers. Perhaps one of the characters with blurred faces, it is Marty? ...

Adults are scared. Nobody knows why it happened. Ciara was reportedly threatened at school, neighbors reported that there was a small, quiet, calm, and do not look even at his age.

on Friday ended with him also 31-year-old Karen Cromie . Athlete, a participant at the Paralympics, was in the frame for Great Britain rowing competitions in 2012 in London. From her biography that seemed to be full of life and plans. Meanwhile, I once tried to jump off a bridge over the highway from Bangor to Belfast (for the locals: where to entering Ikea, the flowers are at the top), once managed to stop her, on Friday, despite a police negotiator work - jumped ... On Friday also killed 20-year-old in north Belfast ...

appears to be a curse, which takes place in Northern Ireland. Though now, more than a decade after the conflict is still something demanded blood and suffering. As if this place was cursed. You can laugh some such mysticism, but I had once mentioned here that Ireland is full of ghosts ... More scientifically - it is unfortunate latitude with long evenings and a little sunshine, rain, wind and depressing atmosphere. For this lack of prospects for young people who have wasted a chance to break out of Piekielko social housing estates. For this specific code enforced by the "silnorękich" in such neighborhoods - beatings by paramilitary groups are just one of the main causes of suicides of young men, problems with drugs and alcohol, lack of activities, work, resulting in a further lack of prospects ...



But why kill the kids? Why kill a young boy who starts a promising career in boxing is? Why do young people kill themselves with might not be rich, but "normal" families living peacefully without any major problems would seem. That in Northern Ireland, no one knows.

What Bra To Wear With A Low Cut Dress

Curse of Northern Ireland around the anniversary of Bloody Sunday ...

Today marks 39 years since Bloody Sunday. And it's first anniversary, during which the victims' families could go the route defeated years ago by the participants peaceful march by British paratroopers shot with a sense of historical justice. A few months ago ended with Lord Saville's inquiry into the causes and course of Bloody Sunday. At one time I mentioned it on this blog, I will soon be under more additions to write about the procedure, its results and the many controversies surrounding this. It is important for one thing: the British state official admitted that the action was Misuse rangers and authorized. Britain's Prime Minister told the House of Commons: Sorry. Life is of course no one has come back, but certainly it was a great symbol of change.

But of course there is, so that once it is colorful and well. Announcement of the results of the government's apology and did not like the Unionist representatives of the inhabitants of this part of the island. They began to raise voices that have been issued since the thick millions on the case, it must now carry out further investigations to clarify the circumstances of the massacres carried out by the IRA. Bloody Friday in 1972 in Belfast (9 killed, 130 wounded), 21 killed in bomb attack in Birmingham in 1974, 10 Protestant workmen were shot on the roadside roads in south Armagh in 1976 ... - Are just a few examples from the shore. Understanding the pain of the victims' families, however, it is hard to resist the impression that some of probrytyjskich politicians do not understand - or pretends not to understand - the essence of the matter: if in Derry, on the one hand they were participants in a peaceful protest, on the other hand, the armed forces of the state. In the case of IRA perpetrators were armed organization for which the State did not happen.

march in Derry was supposed to be this year, last . Some families decided that after the closure of the investigation Saville `a demonstration of this form of memory of the victims will not longer necessary. However, for the year 1940 anniversary. There seems to me that everyone agreed on it, not to go longer route, which 39 years ago broke the British pair of shots to settle only for worship and placing flowers. Anyway - we'll see for the year ...

Meanwhile, life goes on around the "business as usual." As recently as late last week over two days one of the main thoroughfares of northern Belfast - Antrim Road - has been crippled due to a bomb alert. As a rule, such matters are dealt with fairly quickly, however, as it turned out, the case was serious. First, the signal went to the car - a trap. Not really clearly define where he stands "surprise." Police found a suspicious car, she began to study them, but at this time came another note - it is just a trap for the security forces: when the sappers and policemen badaliby suspicious car, fired a second shipment was to be located in the direct distance. Apparently the load was not fired, because the cop was a woman from the Catholic Ardoyne area ... Local newspapers said that for all the members stand Oglaigh nahEireann, grouping paramilitary who considers Sinn Fein Irish affairs as traitors. Executives ONH has granted some time ago a reporter interviewed the "Belfast Telegraph. It shows that they consider to be a "people's army", and set as their ultimate goal of democratic - socialist republic of 32 counties. "Brits out is simply not good enough "(...) the one hand, you can turn your head to hear about the democratic - socialist republic. However, I have written here a few times that the nationalist movement in Northern Ireland has always been more or less turned to the left. In the crisis which pogruchotał Ireland very much, and who also feel can be felt - and what will happen after April, when the force will consist of all the budget cuts, we can only wonder - are on the Left is also growing in strength, after all, were it not for greedy bankers and capitalists bleeding, it soon, soon, Ireland would be united under the banner of tri "Celtic Tiger" ... - So many thought for sure. Meanwhile, as it is. And how will in 2011 - we'll see. In May, local elections are, after all its might for example be the case that the Prime Minister after first time in history is one of Sinn Fein. The mere thought of the Unionists wake up screaming. The question is whether Sinn Fein would like to just go with the comfortable role of being a kind of authority (Deputy McGuinness), but still a little in the opposition (I know, is how it is, but the British are not our ...). If it happened, it would be a historic moment for the truth. Moreover

Wait until May. Continuing the topic Fri "Meanwhile, in the vicinity" - while in the vicinity of Lurgan on Saturday night was the traditional street games. Someone called and said that the street is a bomb, the police arrived, greeted by local young people people with stones, bottles of gasoline and that sort of utensyliami. Six car slightly damaged. So as for the local conditions - a complete lajcik. Because it is still cold at night, come spring, will start to play all night ...

few words from a local ...

FRANKIE GALLAGHER - one of the most important lojalistycznych politicians in Northern Ireland, but who are not directly involved in the everyday business of government. One of the leaders of the Ulster Political Research Group (UPRG), a political superstructure of the Ulster Defence Association. Gallagher, more than the political salons are known for many years of work as social worker - community worker. As a spokesman for UPRG it was he officially announced in 2003 by the UDA ceasefire. In 2004 he participated in the historic meeting of the leaders of the organization lojalistycznych Prime Minister of the Republic of Ireland.
is known for tackling hard drugs and crime in loyalist communities. Is also involved in projects to enable a return to normal life in society, ex-prisoners - members of paramilitary organizations on both sides of the conflict. Recently, the project charter for Northern Ireland works include environment for the integration of migrants living in East Belfast - the majority of Poles - the locals.



- I was born in Belfast. I grew up on the Newtownards Road, in an area where today there is a Freedom Corner. Then it was my part of the street. I was one of twelve siblings. Two of them died at the age of a few years, ten of us survived. Now I have a large family - six children and two granddaughters. You could say that I am "family man".

- My childhood was not easy. My family was poor. There was no We stand on a lot of things we did not have a lot of food ever. Grew up in a small cramped house with two bedrooms and a kitchen. It was hard. Since childhood, I remember that they were always in Belfast and Protestants and Catholics. But then people were not as divided as it is now. All were hard-working people, hard, not bojącymi struggle and rivalry. People from east Belfast do not like those from the west, but it was not a Protestant hostility to the Catholic, it was not any sectarianism. One district did not like the other, as in every city. I remember as a boy, as the port przypływało a lot of Royal Navy. In the vicinity of the docks you could meet many sailors. I remember that it was good times, happy times. There was no trouble, there was no "Troubles." Anyway, as I was a boy it did not even know what it means Roman Catholic, and who it is.

- For me, the conflict began in 1970. I was twelve years old. I remember when I went then with my colleagues at the end of the Newtownards Road. We shot around the pubs, and sometimes we were able to get a few pence, when we have a little money, we went to a chip-shop for food. One evening we were near the pub, when I saw blue flashes and heard the approaching thunder from the Catholic church. Matthew. I realized that someone shoots someone shoots a machine gun. They shot across the street, the men who stood before the pub. Someone told us to flee to their homes, and in the morning, we learned that two people were killed, wounded, was probably twenty-seven people. This was the beginning of attacks on the Protestant community of the IRA. It was also the beginning of the conflict for me personally. I knew one family, which then lost someone. And then he started something called the "tit for tat" - shooting and killing. When someone has killed someone in one community, in retaliation killed someone on the other, and then again - "tit for tat, tit for tat ... I remember that it was scary ...

- Those were horrible times. I remember as a time when the British troops entered Belfast. Then began a mass removal of Protestants and Catholics. People left their homes to move to where people lived with their religion. Catholics began to live together, Protestants the same way. Then began the deepest divisions. The army came to protect the Catholic community, I remember how the Catholic residents of the district prepared for them tea and coffee, and treated to the soldiers. But also remember, as a military outpost was blown up. When I started to grow somewhere between 1972 and 1974, a year ago, I witnessed the death of five of my close colleagues. They died right beside me. Died shot by the British army. Not killed by the IRA were killed either by someone else. I remember a street clash with the soldiers, when the whole district community spawned on the streets. Thousands of people, hundreds of soldiers, fighting sticks, arrows ... This is how the conflict developed, it was a shock for me. Just as we are fighting with the British army, which I thought was his army ... Those were really tough times.

- One thing for me was always quite confusing. Some people think that because I consider myself British from Northern Ireland, it certainly is my story, the story of my family here is not long. Yet this is not true. We've been here since before the Plantation. My family and our community is here for two thousand years, we are part of the Celtic nation. People around the world are a little distorted picture of what happened here. History is never simple, and here is extremely complex.

- When the conflict began to grow, my Protestant community began to organize to defend himself. To fight the IRA. That started to develop the Ulster Defence Organisation. But again, the more the UDA attacked the IRA, the IRA there harder match. And vice versa. Nobody thought about the future. When violence chased violence, it was not possible to talk find a way to peace. When someone tried to find a solution, look for peaceful ways, it has often been specially killed. Just that there was no dialogue. Nobody thought about peace, about the future, we thought only about survival.

- I believe that this place will in future be a much better place for our children. One of the strange things in the conflict is that it is simple. You feel safe around them. Do you know where your enemy is and who is your enemy. You are here, the enemy is out there. Everything is clear. The conflict is over, most of the violence ended. But it turns out that peace is very difficult. Dangers arise elsewhere, do not know who might be your enemy. I have a friend is one of the leaders of paramilitary organizations. He supported me and support throughout the peace process, but once told me, "Frankie, I will finish this peace ...".

- Some people do not know how to stop, some people still want to fight. While working for my community in UPRG since 2000, I spent a lot of time dealing with people who wanted to fight for the same fight. They did not have any idea, do not want to fight for the glory, for the cause. For them, the struggle was the only meaning in life. They did not know anything else. Many also have been sucked in criminal activity. There was a situation that people with paramilitary organizations, through its position in the community began to make money. Were seen as important, as "tough guys" as "big guys". Working with all of this was very hard. We were threatened with death many times. But we worked on these people. Peace requires great effort, much bigger than the war. But also brings a lot more. Now we build a common future for our children.

- I would not call this process a miracle. It was a blessing. But also require many, many, a lot of hard work done by many people. One of the biggest threats after the conflict was that the crime occurred. As with all conflicts around the world, so it was here, this problem also affected my community. When she turned to violence when there is peace, they also come here people from other countries, began to settle. And that was another issue with which we had to deal with. Because over the years, members of my community lived in fear of the Irish. They feared that they want to expel them from their homes, deprived of their land, take away their identity. When foreigners started coming here, some began to fear the same thing. Fear of the IRA has been replaced by fear of immigrants for economic reasons. These times also brought us new challenges. But many people here in my life have I seen someone with a different skin color, or not talking with someone for whom English is not their first language. It was a novelty for them. Recently we started telling people from our community about how the Poles fought during World War II. The fact that the Air Force fought in the Battle of Britain, with the famous 303rd Squadron I mentioned during the Remembrance Sunday also of Polish soldiers who died fighting on our side, and rest in our country. We will also be conducted workshops. Already, we see that the response from our community is very good. The British appreciate when someone fights to defend their community against tyranny. This collective case will definitely make a link between the local community and the Poles. A story about people thousands of miles from their homes fought and died side by side with our grandparents in my view point from which to start building a real relationship, an agreement between our two communities.
