Not happy.

Taken outside the Dail this afternoon following a three-and-a-half-hour meeting to decide if Fianna Fail would run a candidate in the presidential elections.

They won’t. Much to the visible discomfort of Eamon O’Cuiv, putative candidate and Eamon De Valera’s grandson, pictured with Fianna Fail parliamentary party colleagues (from left, bottom pic): Darragh O’Brien, Micheal Martin, O Cuiv and Sean O Fearghail.

Yikes.

RTÉ News has seen details of radical new measures under consideration by Government to help tackle the housing debt crisis.

People facing repossession may be able to rent their homes from the State after they have lost ownership of the properties.

This could allow people stay in their homes after the houses or apartments were repossessed. As they would no longer own their home, they then would rent it – possibly from the State itself.

 

And this is the bit we don’t understand:

Consideration is also being given to measures to allow people who are already in negative equity to trade up if they can sustain a larger debt.

Anyone?

US Cardiologist Dr William Davis has things to say (and a book to sell) about wheat.

You know: evil, mutant, genetically modified, killer wheat – bringer of disease and death:

‘…from celiac disease, the devastating intestinal disease that develops from exposure to wheat gluten, to an assortment of neurological disorders, curious rashes, and the paralyzing effects of schizophrenia. Documented peculiar effects of wheat on humans include appetite stimulation, exposure to brain-active exorphins (the counterpart of internally derived endorphins), exaggerated blood-sugar surges that trigger cycles of satiety alternating with increased appetite, the process of glycation that underlies diseases and aging, inflammatory and pH effects that erode cartilage and damage bone, and activation of disordered immune responses.’

‘There’s hardly a single organ system that is not in some way affected by wheat products. The health impact of Triticum aestivum, common bread wheat and its genetic brethren, ranges far and wide, with curious effects from mouth to anus, brain to pancreas…’

Right. D’you want the rest of this bagel?
