Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
Most of these are shot outdoors where I have the room to literally spin and throw my little camera several feet up into the air, with some throws going as high as 15 feet or more!
None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
Albeit supremely risky this is one of my favorite ways to produce abstract photographs.

This relates to the time when people used to keep livestock in their backyards { My grandparents used to keep chickens many years ago.} I don't think many people would have kept Pigs in the yard. So it is possible that this road name relates to a butchers shop or a city farm.

One story relates how, while Nicholas was visiting a remote part of his diocese, several citizens from Myra arrived with the news that, in his absence, the ruler of the city, Eustathius, had condemned three innocent men to death. Nicholas set out immediately for home. Reaching the outskirts of the city, he asked those he met on the road if they knew what had happened to the prisoners. Informed that their execution was to be carried out that morning, he hurried to the executioner's field, where he found a large crowd of people and the three men kneeling with their arms bound behind them, awaiting the blow of the sword. Nicholas passed through the crowd, took the sword from the executioner's hands and threw it to the ground, ordering that the condemned men be freed from their bonds. Later the ruler sought the saint’s forgiveness. Only after a period of public repentance did Nicholas absolve him.

Some histories relate Little John as a native of Hathersage. Robin Hood is said to have been born at Loxley just 8 from Hathersage. Although no specific mention seems to be made of where Little John was born there is considerable evidence of his burial remaining in Hathersage. The 10ft long grave in the churchyard in 1784 yielded a 30 inch thigh bone. This bone after being exhumed from the grave has since supposedly disappeared.

A ONU recolle as vulneracións dos dereitos lingüísticos en Galiza
A Mesa pola Normalización Lingüística presentoulle esta semana a Fernand de Varennes, relator especial para as minorías da Oficina do Alto Comisionado das Nacións Unidas para os Dereitos Humanos, evidencias das vulneracións dos dereitos lingüísticos da poboación galega que se están producindo na educación, na xustiza, na administración ou no consumo, promovidos ou consentidos polo Estado e pola Xunta. A Mesa, que xa intervira en xuño do 2015 no Consello de Dereitos Humanos da ONU en Xenebra, manterá o contacto co relator para informalo das situación en Galiza.
No seu informe preliminar, que ven de ser publicado na web das Nacións Unidas, De Varennes salienta que “as minorías lingüísticas teñen dereito a usar o seu idioma nas súas interaccións coas autoridades e institucións estatais, sempre e cando sexa razoábel e xustificado, segundo a proporción da poboación que o fale localmente, pero isto segue sen cumprirse nalgunhas rexións”. O Relator lembra, explicitamente, que -tal e como vén denunciando a Mesa en innúmeras ocasións- “disposicións como o Artigo 231 da Lei orgánica do poder xudicial son un obstáculo importante para o cumprimento por parte de España das súas obrigas internacionais en relación co uso cooficial das linguas minoritarias, xa que estipula que nos procedementos xudiciais, os xuíces, maxistrados, fiscais, secretarios e outros funcionarios utilizarán a lingua castelá e que as linguas minoritarias cooficiais só se permitirán se ningunha das partes se opón. Isto, na práctica, levou a que en moitos, se non na maioría dos casos, as autoridades xudiciais penais, civís e administrativas non permitan os procedementos en comunidades autónomas na lingua minoritaria cooficial, mesmo se o solicita unha parte”. “Este obstáculo xeral para o uso dun idioma cooficial minoritario”, afirma De Varennes no seu informe preliminar, “xera preocupacións en canto ao cumprimento das obrigas internacionais de dereitos humanos que se detallarán no informe final”.
É a primeira vez que un representante da ONU vén a Galiza para avaliar a situación dos dereitos lingüísticos da cidadanía o que, dende a Mesa, se considera un éxito da mobilización social a prol do galego. Neste sentido, Marcos Maceira, presidente da entidade salienta que “é máis fácil falar da situación do galego cun representante da ONU que co presidente da Xunta” e denuncia que iso “é un déficit democrático que debe ser corrixido”. “A visita do relator da ONU é un éxito da mobilización social”, asegura, “que debe intensificarse para que Estado e Xunta asuman que vulnerar os dereitos lingüísticos é un ataque aos dereitos humanos”. Representantes da Mesa recordáronlle a Varennes que o Estado español e a Xunta de Galiza deben garantir o principio de que os dereitos lingüísticos son dereitos humanos e entregáronlle un informe no que salientan a indefensión da poboación galega ante discriminacións lingüísticas. “No caso de Galiza”, asegura Maceira, “este papel corresponde en solitario á sociedade civil, sen que os organismos públicos actúen ao respecto da defensa dos dereitos lingüísticos da súa cidadanía”.
Reflexións preliminares do Relator Especial con respecto ás linguas
A Guía práctica de 2017 sobre os dereitos lingüísticos das minorías lingüísticas publicada baixo o mandato do Relator Especial da ONU sobre cuestións das minorías destaca o papel central e a importancia do idioma para as minorías lingüísticas e pon de manifesto as obrigas do Estado en virtude de diversos instrumentos do tratado da ONU. A competencia das comunidades autónomas nos campos da educación, dos servizos sociais e doutras áreas levou a unha variedade de modelos e prácticas que se adoptan en diferentes comunidades autónomas e reflicten contextos, poboacións e expectativas moi diversos.
Unha preocupación atopada polo Relator Especial en varias ocasións en reunións con organizacións da sociedade civil foi a sensación de que existía unha desconexión entre o estado reclamado dos idiomas cooficiais e o alcance do seu uso real e da implementación da lexislación. Por exemplo, sinalouse que os xuíces e os funcionarios encargados de facer cumprir a lei, como a policía nacional, non están suxeitos a ningún requisito de coñecemento dun idioma cooficial, até cando exercen nunha comunidade autónoma. Suxeriuse que isto conduce a un número significativo de queixas e frustracións nalgunhas comunidades autónomas e a desafortunados malentendidos e até á negación ou discriminación no acceso aos servizos públicos.
Segundo o recomendado por outras organizacións internacionais, incluído o Comité de Ministros do Consello de Europa, disposicións como o artigo 231 da Lei orgánica do poder xudicial son un obstáculo importante para o cumprimento por parte de España das súas obrigas internacionais en relación co uso cooficial das linguas minoritarias, xa que estipula que nos procedementos xudiciais, os xuíces, maxistrados, fiscais, secretarios e outros funcionarios utilizarán a lingua castelá e que as linguas minoritarias cooficiais só se permitirán se ningunha das partes se opón. Isto, na práctica, levou a que en moitos, se non na maioría dos casos, as autoridades xudiciais penais, civís e administrativas non permitan os procedementos en comunidades autónomas na lingua minoritaria cooficial, mesmo se o solicita unha parte. Este obstáculo xeral para o uso dun idioma cooficial minoritario xera preocupacións en canto ao cumprimento das obrigas internacionais de dereitos humanos que se detallarán no informe final.
A Mesa pola Normalización Lingüística
É unha entidade social independente, constituída en 1986 e da que forman parte arredor de 5000 socias e socios e que ten como obxectivo a normalidade plena da lingua galega. Neste sentido, a defensa do dereito ao emprego do galego en Galiza en todas as situacións e contextos é unha das súas principais liñas de actuación. Entendemos que o dereito ao uso da lingua propia non se pode desligar dos máis elementais dereitos humanos, civís e democráticos. A entidade dotouse do Observatorio de Dereitos Lingüísticos que conta cun comité asesor formado por xuristas e persoas expertas en diferentes ámbitos. O Observatorio elabora relatorios e informes que envía a diferentes institucións públicas galegas, estatais ou, recentemente, ao comité de expertos do Consello de Europa para a Carta europea das linguas rexionais e minorizadas. Anualmente presenta publicamente o seu informe A Liña do Galego baseado nos casos de vulneracións de dereitos lingüísticos, mais tamén nas consultas ou parabéns a quen si os garante. A Mesa pola Normalización Lingüísitica forma parte da Rede Europea para a Igualdade das Linguas – ELEN.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.

It has been an ambition of mine for some years now to have a book published, in which would feature some of the best images from my collection of old postcards and ephemera relating to Bangor, my hometown.
I’m pleased to announce that I have sourced a publisher who would like to publish my first book! The publication will be around 112pp, printed in full colour, featuring some of my best loved Bangor postcard images. Half of the images will be from my own collection and the remainder will be taken by members of Bangor & North Down Camera Club. The camera club members will replicate the scenes depicted in the historic postcards, showing how the views look today. So, one page will have the historic view and the page opposite will show how the same view appears now. Alongside the images will be notes of historical interest and titbits of Bangor’s rich social history, as well as quotes (often fascinating, sometimes bizarre or hilarious) taken from the messages penned by the senders of the original postcards.
The book should be published by about early November 2012. More details will follow. In the meantime, let me know if you would be willing to help take any of the modern comparison images; I’m sure the camera club members wouldn’t mind a helping hand.
Thanks for all your views and comments over the years. I hope you’ll consider buying a copy of the book, when it comes out :-)

Following the granting of Catholic Emancipation in 1829, Daniel O’ Connell planned a monster Repeal Rally to be held at Conquer Hill, Clontarf, on the 8th of October 1843.About 100,000 persons were expected to attend but the Crown Authorities banned the rally and sent several military regiments into the area to enforce the ban. They also aimed their big guns from the Pidgeon House, across the bay at Ringsend, directly at Clontarf.
Fearing consequences for the thousands of innocent people, O’ Connell cancelled the rally.

Tips about how to Prevent Sewer Blockages from Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) in Horace, North Dakota
What exactly is FOG?
FOG relates particularly to fats, oils and grease getting into the sewer system when put down drain pipes in houses, apartments rentals, eating places, market and public venues.
As a end result of cooking, FOG is normally present in:
Baking goods
Butter, lard, shortening
Cooking oil
Fats and oil from cooked meats
Food scraps
Gravy
Mayonnaise
Salad dressings
Sauces
Sour cream
Why is FOG an issue?
Obstruction can cause sewer line overflows in your yard. More often than not, fats, oils and grease are discarded incorrectly in the course of preparing food and kitchen area clean-up. When put down the sink (drain or floors), FOG can accumulate and form up, obstructing clean sewer lines. This build up but not only cuts down on the capability with the wastewater collection system, additionally it changes its usefulness.
In serious instances, obstruction can result in:
Sewage back ups into businesses and homes and
Sewers that flood on to roads and real estate, ultimately pass into nearby rivers, leading to contaminants.
How will you assist?
The simplest way to resolve the grease issue and assist to stop overflows of raw sewage would be to keep this substance out from the sewer system. As a result of education and learning and also by implementing specific behavior, you can easily reduce FOG places in your own home.
In the kitchen area, fats, oils and grease (FOG) will come mainly from pre-rinsing pots and pans or cleaning cookware. When cooking food FOG is permitted to go down the sink, it cools down within the wastewater system and stays with plumbing, making FOG accumulation. The accumulation leads to blockages and backups in businesses and homes, wastewater overflows, and leaks on personal residences, roadways, and local surface areas. FOG accumulation also raises the expense of sustaining Horace wastewater treatment methods, therefore affecting prices and will also generate community health issues.
Suggestions to maintain your drainpipes fat-free:
Put cooled down fats, oils and grease in to a jar and place the jar inside the garbage. If you do not possess a pot, put aluminum foil in to a coffee mug or comparable, add FOG, let it cool and get rid of.
Prior to cleaning, make use of a paper napkin or paper hand towel to clean FOG from pots and pans and dump it inside the garbage.
Use kitchen sink strainers to capture food items waste materials.
Place food leftovers inside the garbage, not over the garbage disposer.
The easiest method to handle grease and fats will be to clean them off of or put them into storage containers and get rid of them in the garbage disposal. By no means place fats or grease down the kitchen sink drain pipes or in to the commode.
There’s a nationwide marketing campaign called “Can the Grease” all through the USA that promotes using correct removal of FOG.
Restaurants along with other business kitchen areas have to have grease traps or interceptors put in. These companies are controlled by inspection regularly by Local personnel. Make sure you call us to learn more.
Exactly what is a grease trap or grease interceptor and just how do you use it?
Grease traps and interceptors are units built to maintain Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) from getting into public sewage lines. They may be found inside of or outside of the kitchen area, based on the application. Generally, they are created to keep FOG-laden discharge for enough time for grease within the water to cool down, firm up and separate from the rest of the waste materials. When the grease has split up, it may be discarded correctly.
Should i use a grease trap or interceptor inside my eatery or food service business?
Any business that deals with any kind of food really should use a grease trap or interceptor. Even smaller food providers like coffee houses who serve items with dairy products need to use a grease trap or interceptor to help keep FOG from heading down the sink. A business will have to use a grease trap or interceptor if the side sewer line contains a visually apparent build up of fat, oil or grease. Make reference to the most recent Standard Plumbing Code (offered at your public library) for dimensions requirements.
Just how much will a grease trap or interceptor cost and who should I contact to obtain one to get set up?
They range in price, based on dimension and application and will begin as little as a few hundred to thousands. Make sure you speak to a licensed pluming company in your community for costs.
Who decides if I require a grease trap or interceptor?
In the event your food company business deals with food items and washes pots and pans, you probably have to use a grease trap or interceptor. Your decision depends on the kind of use and decided upon from the professional and local staff.
Who is mainly responsible for setting up a grease interceptor?
Each and every business that deals with food items of any type – from your coffee house offering dairy along with milk products to your bistro preparing deep-fried meals – is likely releasing FOG. All food providers are accountable for putting in a unit to help keep FOG from getting into their side sewer line and also the general public sewer range.
What happens if I do not install a grease trap or interceptor?
If your business handles any food items which contains fat, oil and grease, you may ultimately experience a maintenance issue for instance a obstruction within the building sewer line. A obstruction can certainly create sewage back-up circumstance and consequently a possible health issue for your business. If the issue is within the building sewer line, then your business is directly accountable for having to pay for the clean-up fees and damage to property. A business can also be instructed to shut down the business until an examiner certifies all health problems are solved.
When the obstruction is incorporated in the public sewer main and Horace, North Dakota can validate how the methods of the particular business has resulted in the obstruction, then that business might have to pay for any public clean-up expenses, damage to property and public sewer servicing expenses to alleviate the obstruction. The business may also be instructed to put in a grease trap or interceptor or update a current system to intercept food and FOG.

How frequently do i need to thoroughly clean my grease trap/grease interceptor?
A grease trap or interceptor needs to be on a regular basis taken care of in order to meet the 25% Rule – no more than 25%, by volume, from the trap or interceptor ought to accumulate of food and FOG. If in excess of 25% of food and FOG build up within the trap or interceptor, it is more probable not to work correctly and releasing food and FOG to your building sewer line as well as the public sewer system. Exclusions to the 25% Rule are suitable for devices that can keep greater than 25% FOG and will also be exclusively produced in the manufacturers specs.
Every business ought to figure out a particular cleaning routine that suits their organization. Some organizations will have to clean their trap or interceptor more frequently than others. It is very important to keep in mind that using kitchen very best management methods, like scraping your dishes, cooking pots, and pans, will decrease the volume of food and FOG that release right into a trap or interceptor, consequently reducing the regularity for cleaning.
Just how do i keep clean and maintain my grease trap/grease interceptor?
Grease trap maintenance is generally done by maintenance employees or any other workers from the business. Grease interceptor (GI) maintenance, that is generally done by authorized haulers or recyclers, includes taking out the total quantity (liquids and solids) from the GI and effectively getting rid of the FOG in compliance with all federal government, state, and/or local laws. When executed correctly and at the correct regularity, grease interceptor and trap maintenance can help reduce the release of FOG in to the wastewater collection system. The necessary routine maintenance frequency for grease interceptors and traps will depend on significantly on the volume of FOG a center yields together with any best management practices (BMPs) that the business utilizes to cut back the FOG released into its sanitary sewer system. In most cases, a business that utilizes BMPs will recognize financial advantage via a decrease in their needed grease interceptor and trap maintenance regularity.

Published in the Wellingtonian 21 October 2010
On a wet and windy winter day in 1901 the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall came to town. It was the first of last century’s grand royal tours. Nearly everyone poured onto the streets to welcome them.
One of the features of the visit were our grand welcoming arches. We excelled. On landing at Queen’s Wharf the royal couple were driven up Jervois Quay, under a tri-coloured "Citizens' Arch" and a Woollen Company arch made of wool bales. In Cuba Street there was a Māori arch and a Marlborough arch featuring sheaves of grain. Manners Street featured a Chinese arch. Along Lambton Quay there was the buttermen's arch "cunningly made of butter boxes and trade brands", and a Westport arch featuring huge lumps of coal.
Almost at the end, outside the Government buildings, was the impressively turreted Government arch shown here, and just out of the picture to the right, at the entrance to Parliament, was the main Māori arch – "the best Māori arch in all New Zealand" according to the official history of the visit.
No other town did so well, although they tried. Christchurch, for example, proudly featured a meat arch showing off carcasses of frozen mutton, and their agricultural arch had penned bullocks at its base, cages of sheep, and clucking poultry on top.

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
Most of these are shot outdoors where I have the room to literally spin and throw my little camera several feet up into the air, with some throws going as high as 15 feet or more!
None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
Albeit supremely risky this is one of my favorite ways to produce abstract photographs.

Septr. 24th 1923
My dear Canon
Thank you so much for your letter, telling me about your sister. You have all been much in my thoughts and I hope that you and Mrs. Evans have been helped through the long sad strain of this summer. You know how closely I have been with you in spirit - and I doubt if a day passes without my thoughts turning towards you as memories of my happy 8 1/2 years in Warwickshire rise before me. In one sense, you are visibly before me, daily, in that long catalogue of persons and places in the "George Eliot" Dictionary which I am steadily revising, at the compilers' request. I have nearly finished my share in the work, but there are a few points about which I should be most grateful for your help, if you can spare time to give it. For your convenience, I will write out the questions in columns, leaving spaces for whatever you can most kindly send, in the way of answers. I am thankful that this Dictionary is forthcoming- George Eliot as you know, has been my favourite novelist and beloved companion for nearly, (will you believe it?) 40 years, ever since I was given a copy of Middlemarch in 1884 - so I am one who rejoices at the study which her writings attract.
I have been asked to hold the Higher Education classes in English Literature under the County Council for Malvern, for this coming term, and the next, till Easter - and have chqsen my subject,a detailed examination of each of George Eliot's novels and poems, up till Christmas:- and afterwards, the longer poems of Wordsworth (i.e. "Prelude" and "Excursion", with perhaps a few others).
And, as I know you take a very kind, almost Fatherly interest in me, I will tell you what not many know, that I have been asked to preach in Westminster Abbey - though it will indeed be an ordeal!
However, I hope to be helped in this and all else - for what can we do, alone?
With our kindest remembrances and love to you both, and hoping that you are keeping up well, and that you and Mrs. Evans may get some little restful change, away together, somewhere, before Winter sets in,
Ever cordially yours
Hubert H. M. Bartlett
P.S. I have had a most interesting correspondence, as to the prototye of "Lydgate" in Middlemarch- Did I tell you of this - and of the famous man who admits that he may have been in some respects in George Eliot's mind, when she described Lydgate? Have you seen all Miss Mudge's notes on the G.E. characters & places? She ought to submit something to you, before it goes to the press. There are various family statements.

The Fay Thomas Collection includes family archives relating to the Thomas family. Moses Thomas (1825-1878) was a significant figure in the history of the area now known as the City of Whittlesea, Victoria, Australia. Thomas and Ann and their family lived at "Mayfield", Mernda, Victoria.
Miss Lily Thomas (1871-1946), Thomas and Ann’s fourth daughter lived there all her life. She collected postcards which her family and friends sent her on a very regular basis. It was an easy and enjoyable way to keep in touch. Production of postcards blossomed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lily’s collection encompasses the so-called Golden Age (1890-1915) with many postmarked 1906-1907. Some were sent to other members of the family.
The collection document the natural landscape as well as the built environment—buildings, gardens, parks, and tourist sites. Topographical Postcards showing street scenes and general views from Australian and international locations, some of which are artistic views. Popular postcard manufacturers such as Tuck’s Postcards are included in the collection.
Decorative cards, many embellished with floral motives (as a nod to the receiver Lily?) and embossing. Greeting cards are common for Christmas, New Year, Easter and of course birthdays.
Regular senders can be identified from Kyneton and the Great Ocean Road area, Victoria and there is a siginifant collection from Scotland (but not sent from there).
