<description><![CDATA[ <p>When we&rsquo;re flicking through magazines looking at pictures of our favourite celebrities it&rsquo;s hard not to let the green eyed monster take hold. We often find ourselves wondering why our legs, or our faces and bodies, do not match up to theirs. Damn their fabulous genetics, but one thing that we really envy is their hair. Their magnificent manes, their lustrous locks and their bouncing barnets are all gorgeous, and all seemingly beyond our reach. It&rsquo;s an issue of regular jealousy as we tug at our tresses in the morning, wondering why our hair is not perfect like Cheryl Cole&rsquo;s, or why God did not give us <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/pictures/Megan-Fox-Hairstyle-Photos/1" target="_blank" title="Megan Fox Hair">Megan Fox hair</a>. To the rescue come a multitude of different hair treatments that promise to preen us to perfection, but what works? And what will have us thinking a <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/hair-tips-Can-I-Tempt-You-With-The-Dog-Cut-Madam-The-10-Worst-Hair-Styles-of-All-Time" target="_blank" title="Bowl Cut">bowl cut</a> is a better state of hair-fairs... (Sorry- love a pun!)...?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> <img src="http://www.bustedcoverage.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/megan-fox-leaving-five-fifteen-hair-salon-in-glendale-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Megan Fox" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="250" height="360" align="left" /></span>One treatment that is making waves in salons across the UK is the Brazilian Blow Dry. It works by having pure keratin injected into your tresses. The substance exists naturally in nails, skin and hair, meaning the process is set to nourish your lucks, and repair the bad treatment you&rsquo;ve inflicted on them. The treatment is left on for 30 minutes or so, depending on your hair type, as your hair soaks up all that keratiney goodness. To lock in lustre and shine special keratin straighteners are used, leaving your hair super soft and enviably sleek. After just one session your hair is left looking gorgeous for up to four months afterwards, definitely worth the cash.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>Also to avoid <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/hair-tips-Can-I-Tempt-You-With-The-Dog-Cut-Madam-The-10-Worst-Hair-Styles-of-All-Time" target="_blank" title="Rat tail hair">rat tail hair</a> it&rsquo;s important to have trims on a regular basis, helping to keep your hair looking fresh and healthy. It will also bring you one step closer to your favourite starlets as let&rsquo;s face it, they change their hair on a weekly basis &ndash; the lucky so and so&rsquo;s. Having a <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/pictures/Megan-Fox-Hairstyle-Photos/1" target="_blank" title="Megan Fox Hairstyle">Megan Fox hairstyle</a> seems relatively low maintenance, compared to say that of Victoria Beckham, as hers is generally just dark and lustrous, the length hardly varies. However, this is not to say achieving her locks is an easy feat! Head to your local salon, such as <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/salon/Hairways-(Hair-&amp;-Beauty)-Ltd/731180" target="_blank" title="Secret Salons Hairways Basildon">Hairways Basildon</a>, and ask what would work best for your mane, getting you one step closer to the hair you covet!</p><br />

They have successfully achieved the high standards required of them in a wide variety of activities and I have no doubt that they will be at the helm of the development of the Naval Service long into the future.&rdquo; <br /><br />Minister Killeen added: &ldquo;As you will all be aware, my colleague the Minister for Finance and I were very pleased to be able to announce during our recent visit to the Naval Base that Government approval had been granted for the purchase of two new Offshore Patrol Vessels for the Naval Service. <br /><br />&ldquo;The Government's decision is of course subject to the negotiations with the preferred bidder, Babcock Marine, reaching a satisfactory conclusion.&nbsp; Today, I am delighted to report that very good progress has been made since the announcement and I am confident that I will be in a position to formally place a contract within a number of weeks.<br /><br />&ldquo;It is indeed very heartening that such positive news for the Naval Service coincides with the commissioning today of this new class of cadets.&nbsp; These young officers can look forward to careers which will be served on these modern new vessels.<br /><br />&ldquo;The Naval Service makes an important contribution across a wide variety of roles assigned by Government. The success of the Naval Service in the areas of fishery protection, search and rescue and the provision of aid to the civil power is clear for all to see. These high profile roles have the added benefit of conveying the importance of the Naval Service to the wider community. In this context, as Minister for Defence, I am committed to continuing the development of the Naval Service to ensure that it is capable of fulfilling the full range of tasks assigned to it by the Government. To this end there is a Cadetship competition currently being held in order to recruit a total of thirty Cadets, six of whom will join the Naval Service.&nbsp; It is anticipated that their training will commence in December of this year.<br /><br />&ldquo;I would like to pay tribute to the Naval College staff involved in preparing these cadets for officer duty. Today however, belongs primarily to these new officers. They are charged with providing leadership and guidance to others, a responsibility, I have no doubt they will discharge with excellence&rdquo;, the Minister concluded.<br /><br />-ENDS-<br /><br />Notes to Editor:<br />- For further information please contact Mark Dunphy of Dunphy Public Relations on 00353868534900 or media ( @ ) dunphypr dot com<br />- High-resolution images of Minister Killeen are available to download from www.dunphyprimages.com</p><br />

<description><![CDATA[ <p>The beauty industry in one of the largest in the UK, grossing millions of pounds every year as the nation flocks to have itself preened and plucked into tip top shape. But what is the reason behind the industries phenomenal popularity? Why would so many of us prefer to have our eyebrows shaped and enjoy a <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/search.php?what=thai-massage&amp;in=" target="_blank" title="Secret Salons Thai Massage">Thai massage</a> then actually eat a decent meal that evening? A simple answer would be to blame the society we live in, but at the end of the day it&rsquo;s our personal decision and the simple fact is that looking good, equates to feeling good.</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"> <img src="http://www.sangson.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/thai-massage3.jpg" border="0" alt="Thai Massage" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="334" height="250" align="left" /></span>Looking good comes from a multitude of treatments and the fact is that everyone looks better with a healthy, bouncing barnet then they do with a neglected nest of split ends. This has resulted in the industries popularity, <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/salon/hairways-hair-beauty-ltd/731180/" target="_blank" title="Hairways Basildon">Hairways Basildon</a> in particular, as more and more treatments have become readily available, faster more convenient ways to spruce up your feet or remove hair from your legs. The real key behind looking great though is if you feel great &ndash; the two go hand in hand! This comes from getting enough sleep, not getting over stressed and enjoying some key relaxation time. Now this might only seem suitable for those with the luxury of time but it could be available to you faster than you think. There has been a rise in the popularity of Thai massages recently, and from a recent study of various salons in the UK it&rsquo;s not hard to see why.</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Massages are seen as an ultimate treat, the real way to relax and unwind. To get a <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/Leicester-salons-Leicester-LE8/Thai massage-in-Leicester-LE8" target="_blank" title="Thai Massage Leicester">Thai massage Leicester </a>is an increasingly popular beauty treatment, with more people searching for massages in Leicester then they do for tanning. The same applies to <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/Aberdeen-salons-Aberdeen-AB11/Thai massage-in-Aberdeen-AB11" target="_blank" title="Thai Massage Aberdeen">Thai massage Aberdeen</a> as people opt for relaxation over traditional beauty treatments. It seems that more people are starting to realise that feeling confident and relaxed improves your appearance substantially more than a quick make-up session. It has been discovered though that one of the best ways to relax is <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/Cardiff-salons-Barry-CF63/Thai massage-in-Barry-CF63" target="_blank" title="Thai Massage Cardiff">Thai massage Cardiff</a>, followed closely by getting a <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/search.php?what=Thai+massage&amp;in=Northampton" target="_blank" title="Thai Massage Northampton">Thai massage Northampton</a> as growing numbers of people are looking for the best place to get a Thai massage.</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Other types of massage are also effective when it comes to relaxation; sometimes a good head massage is just what someone needs to release all the tension that has built up over the day. With massage parlours opening up here, there and everywhere it&rsquo;s hard to know where to go and where to trust. Most recently Twickenham has risen in the massage stakes with the <a href="http://www.secretsalons.com/Twickenham-salons-Feltham-TW13/Massage-in-Feltham-TW13" target="_blank" title="Thai Massage Feltham">Feltham massage</a> becoming a popular search for those looking to rejuvenate and refresh after a hard day.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As the beauty industry becomes increasingly competitive keep your wits about you and make sure to remember that feeling good is essential to looking good.</p><br />

<title>Justin Bieber Has His Eyes Set on John Travolta's Dancing Shoes</title>

<description><![CDATA[ <p>It has recently emerged that teen pop sensation Justin Bieber has his heart set on being cast as the legendary Danny Zuko in the rumoured &lsquo;Grease&rsquo; remake. Bieber hopes to fill John Travolta&rsquo;s <a href="http://www.movedancewear.com/cat/dance_shoes/21/" target="_blank" title="movedancewear">dancing shoes</a> in the remake of the 1978 musical classic, but would he really be up to the challenge??</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"> <img src="http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/060914/154616__grease_l.jpg" border="0" alt="Grease" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="320" height="240" align="left" /></span>It would be interesting to hear John Travolta&rsquo;s opinion on the matter; would his celebrated character be sullied by Bieber or would the teen twiglet bring a breath of fresh air? Or alternatively should everyone just leave &lsquo;Grease&rsquo; alone and let it age in peace? We think perhaps as even though the remake is not for certain, Bieber has already drafted his own fantasy cast. With him at the helm he imagines Miley Cyrus in the <a href="http://www.movedancewear.com/cat/dance_shoes_character_shoes/21_40/" target="_blank" title="character shoes">character shoes</a> of good girl Sandy, his reasoning being she &lsquo;can sing, dance and act&rsquo;. Now there is no denying the girl can sing, and her Disney series &lsquo;Hannah Montana&rsquo; has been phenomenally popular, but is she good enough for Grease? There is after all a huge cult following to impress and to be honest it seems unlikely that her quirky American phrases and clich&eacute;s will make the cut.</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>The question is also raised of whether Justin Bieber himself can act, after all this is not what he is famous for. He was discovered warbling on YouTube and has just risen to fame on a wave of screaming 11 year old girls who hail him as the cutest thing since their new Bebo page. We cannot really gage his acting abilities given that in every television performance to date he has played himself, but he is due to make his acting debut in a recurring role in&nbsp;CSI later this year. He is also due to film a 3D film about&nbsp;his life for next February.&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="http://snarkerati.com/celebrity-gossip/files/2010/05/justin-bieber-miley-cyrus.jpg" border="0" alt="Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="200" height="180" align="right" /></p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre;"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span> </span>Now, I don&rsquo;t mean to sound mean but everything about this just sounds wrong &ndash; Justin Bieber? No. Miley Cyrus as Sandy? Please no. A 3D film about Bieber&rsquo;s life? Hell no! He is only 16, how much can have really occurred in his life? Will we see a slow mo of that infamous moment where he walked into some revolving doors? Fascinating....consequently as much as it pains me to admit I would much prefer the cheese orientated, <a href="http://www.movedancewear.com/cat/dance_shoes_soft_ballet_shoes/21_23/" target="_blank" title="ballet shoes">ballet shoe</a> clad High School Musical Gang to take on the &lsquo;Grease&rsquo; remake challenge. They have that cheesy but approachable nature, whereas Bieber is cheese trying to pose like an ice cube &ndash;just plain farcical really.</p><br />

<title>Co Clare Supermarket Plan To Create 50 Jobs</title>

<description><![CDATA[ <p>West Clare could be in line for a significant jobs boost after a planning application to develop a &euro;4m supermarket and community development in Miltown Malbay was lodged with Clare County Council this week.<br /><br />The proposed new development will consist of a 10,000 sq ft supermarket, 150-space car park, relief road for the town, children&rsquo;s playground, and an astro-turf facility with associated dressing rooms and lighting.<br /><br />Local businessman John Jones says the says the project will regenerate the local area and create over 50 jobs, as well as additional seasonal employment.&nbsp; A further 70 jobs will be generated during the 12-18 month construction phase.&nbsp; <br /><br />Mr. Jones said: &ldquo;From a commercial point the supermarket is a very important addition to the infrastructure of the town. On a local level the car park, playground and playing pitch, which represents an investment of in excess of &euro;250,000, would be vital additions to the towns amenities.<br /><br />&ldquo;The single-storey supermarket, which will have a separate service yard with staff parking and is designed with the latest environmentally friendly innovations, will generate its business from the current high level of business spillage out of the town. Recent studies have shown that this is very achievable and would complement existing commercial activity in the town.&nbsp; <br /><br />&ldquo;The employment generated by this project would act as a shot in the arm for Miltown Malbay and surrounding areas, which has experienced high levels of emigration since the downturn in the economy.&nbsp; This project would enable more people to live and work in their own community as they would prefer.&nbsp; For example, Miltown St Joseph&rsquo;s GAA club has pledged its support to the project as it recognises the importance associated with building a self-sustainable community, one which offers work opportunities and an improved quality of life for its young people.<br /><br />&ldquo;The range of products in the shop will also reduce the need for people to travel considerable distances for their shopping. By more people shopping locally the supermarket will generate additional revenue for the other local businesses which will in turn generate more employment&rdquo;, he added.<br /><br />Commenting on the development of ancillary facilities, Mr. Jones stated &ldquo;An adjacent 150-space car park, which will be free of charge, will service both the shop and the town in general. A further 14 car park spaces at the site entrance will provide additional car parking for the residents of the Ennis Road. <br /><br />&ldquo;A through road will in time connect with the Ballard Road creating another portion of the relief road around the town.&nbsp; An enclosed children&rsquo;s playground will be located adjacent to the car park and will be a great addition to the town&rsquo;s amenities&rdquo;, Mr. Jones concluded.<br /><br />John Jones and his wife Claire currently operate a Centra supermarket at Church Street, Miltown Malbay. They are the seventh successive generation of the Jones family to operate the business, which was established in 1835. <br /><br />-ENDS-<br /><br />Note To Editor:<br />-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; John Jones is available for interview and further comment on 087-2796166.<br />-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A high resolution image is available on request.

<description><![CDATA[ <p>Clare County Council today announced a comprehensive programme of flood alleviation works for the town of Ennis.<br /><br />The works include the recently commenced &euro;250,000 Aughanteeroe Flood Alleviation Scheme on the Gort Road in Ennis, which is scheduled for completion later this year.<br /><br />The Council confirmed that it has received funds totalling &euro;135,000 from the Office of Public Works (OPW) in respect of flood relief works proposed in the Watery Road area of Ennis.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br />The works, when completed, will provide protection to vulnerable areas including Watery Road itself, Oakwood Drive, Elm Park and adjacent areas which were affected by the serious flood events of November and December 2009.<br /><br />Commenting on the commencement of flood alleviation schemes elsewhere in the Clare county capital, Senior Engineer Tom Tiernan said the OPW has also agreed in principle to the concept of combining two separate scheme applications into one proposal because of their proximity to each other and the fact that they will complement each other when completed.&nbsp; The schemes in question relate to St. Flannan&rsquo;s and Ballybeg.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br />Mr. Tiernan continued: &ldquo;Furthermore, approval has been given for the appointment of consultants to facilitate planning, design and subsequent stages of the project which will incorporate;&nbsp;&nbsp; the construction of an overflow culvert from the St Flannan&rsquo;s swallow hole, the construction of a similar type facility from the Ballybeg swallow hole, the repair/replacement of non-return valve systems in the River Fergus right embankment to the South of Quin Road, other improvement works to the same embankment and the installation of one or more emergency pump sumps in the floodplain area to the south of Tobartaoscain.&rdquo;<br /><br />Ennis Town Council last month signed a contract with BAM Civil Ltd., Galway, to construct the Aughanteeroe Flood Alleviation Scheme. The need for flood alleviation works at Aughanteeroe, Gort Road, Ennis was identified in the Ennis Main Drainage &amp; Flood Study Preliminary Report.&nbsp; <br /><br />The section was originally included in the River Fergus Lower (Ennis) Drainage Scheme, Bank Place bridge to Doora bridge. It was subsequently separated out to advance the works.&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br />The main lower scheme will commence on site before year end.<br /><br />-ENDS-<br /><br />Note To Editor:<br />-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tom Tiernan is available for interview and further comment.
