People in Erris and around the world are puzzled by the resemblance of the new Garda Superintendent in Belmullet with "Johnny Sack" Sacramoni from the Sopranos Television programme.

http://www.hbo.com/sopranos/cast/character/johnny_sack....shtml

http://www.mayonews.ie/index.php?option=com_content&tas...id=38

Locals have speculated that the two may be related, or even whether the actor Vince Curatola has been hired by Mayo Gardaí to portray a heavy-handed police officer. Recent gangster tactics seen in Erris may indicate that the actor has taken his role too far. read full story / add a comment

Personal Reflections of illness and the Irish system

MRSA and its impact on people, on families........Are we negligent?

It is not acceptable for our hospitals to be plagued with a disease that is in effect a silent killer and if it fails to kill you leaves you a victim for life of health system that will eventually destroy you.

For people with long term illness, the lack of multi-disciplinary medics and an over abundance of management/staff, cleaners etc., the hospitals do not get cleaned as used to be the case. read full story / add a comment
