Ben Sands profile at 'Last FM' Their Céilidh house on the Ryan Road, in the foothills of the Mourne Mountains, was a focal point for Catholic and Protestant neighbours from nearby farms to enjoy music and craic. Sands initially attended college to study theology and philosophy, but dropped out and began to walk the 120 miles home to concentrate on his music career.

We’ve got your guitar in the back of the car.” So Tommy joined them.

" The final two tracks are "The Chatham Lassies" and "Strictly Sambuca" which had combined live during Ross Couper's live duets with guitarist Tom Oakes for quite some time. For Blackhouse, "The Chatham Lassies" is reworked into an eight-minute composition that opens with the familiar and lively fiddle/acoustic guitar duet and skips along towards a more sedate pace, but with a full, rich sound." Closing track "Strictly Sambuca," on the other hand, written after "tunes and wild craic" at the Lock Inn, Fort Augustus, is a nine-minute "party tune" featuring pulsing beats, strong trance credentials and a whirlwind of fiddle and pipe solos.

Miriam Lord of The Irish Times described him in this incarnation as "looking and sounding like Drumcondra's answer to Rodney Dangerfield", while Lise Hand of the Irish Independent commented that he was "surrounded by vegetables, ginger nuts and the disintegrated remnants of the dignity of his former office". When asked for an explanation by the Sunday World, Ahern replied that it was "just a bit of craic" and that "you [journalists] get paid more [than columnists]".

Northern lapwing The northern lapwing (Vanellus vanellus) was declared the Republic of Ireland's national bird by a committee of the Irish Wildlife Conservancy in 1990. Northern Ireland does not have an official national bird, but the Eurasian oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus) was unofficially selected in 1961. The Irish Examiner has put the rook (Corvus frugilegus) forward as a possible national bird, due to their "wild hardiness, spirit, and resilience, in the face of all difficulties, and their ability to cope with style and a bit of craic, with anything that the world throws at them." In 2016 Niall Hatch of BirdWatch Ireland listed ten possible national birds: European robin, peregrine falcon, common house martin, Eurasian curlew, roseate tern, barn owl, common swift, Bohemian waxwing, Eurasian blackcap, northern pintail.

The CHC manages and services the Cultural Resource Centre which comprises the Library, Sound and Film Centre and Senior's Computer Learning Centre which were established in 2004.

It has been suggested that "creag" was an Olde English word for cricket but expert opinion is that it was an early spelling of "craic", meaning "fun and games in general".

Possibly cricket was derived from bowls, assuming bowls is the older sport, by the intervention of a batsman trying to stop the ball from reaching its target by hitting it away. Playing on sheep-grazed land or in clearings, the original implements may have been a matted lump of sheep's wool (or even a stone or a small lump of wood) as the ball; a stick or a crook or another farm tool as the bat; and a stool or a tree stump or a gate (e.g.

Launched in the summer of 2016 by United Engine Corporation through Aviadvigatel and NPO Saturn, the thrust PD-35 will be developed till 2023 for 180 billion rubles ($3 billion) including 60 billion for test benches and laboratory equipment, to power future wide-body aircraft including the Russo-Chinese CRAIC CR929. The long engine will weigh , its fan will be in diameter and its scaled up PD-14 core will have a nine-stage high-pressure compressor and two-stage turbine. On 19 January 2018, the Russian government awarded UEC-Aviadvigatel a ₽64.3 billion ($1.13 billion) contract to develop a PD-35-1 demonstrator by 2023, including wide-chord composite fan blades and fan case, a 23:1 compressor pressure ratio, ceramic matrix composites – silicon carbide-silicon carbide (SiC-SiC) and carbon-silicon carbide (C-SiC) – and advanced cooling for 1,450 °C (2,640 °F) temperatures. It could power the Ilyushin IL-96-400, the Il-76 airlifter, Il-78 tanker and an Antonov An-124 replacement.
