Nine Toppers took to the water and after planing from M mark were closely bunched approaching Y. Some very strong gusts blowing from the Loch of the Lowes started knocking boats over giving the rescue boat a hectic ten minutes. www.stmlsc.org.uk /oldround.htm   (8814 words)

North West enter the Regional fray   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) The last of the three teams to enter the competition may have lost Decker Curry and Mark Gillespie since the original squad was named last week, but can still boast six Ireland players when they bid to make an instant impact in front of National Coach Adrian Birrell and his fellow selectors. Gillespie (right), the North West captain today, was the unluckiest, dismissed first ball against North Down but he is one of the nine Ireland players in possession and it is up to the rest to make an irresistible claim to force their way into the international line-up. His opening partner will be Bready's Mark Olphert, who won his solitary Ireland cap in 1998, with Gillespie, who averaged almost 39 in his last three internationals, likely to come in at first wicket down. www.cricketeurope.net /NORTHERN/DATABASE/2002/NEWS/046.shtml   (860 words)

Printer version - Sorry Lasher, it's Louise Staley who has DD convictions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Back on Wednesday, the ambition-challenged Victorian Liberal Legislative Council Leader Mark Birrell announced he would leave Parliament at the next election, sparking speculation that always sober driver Louise Asher (we are serious about this - contrary to earlier suggestions she has a clean record) would be dumped from her shadow treasury portfolio. Meanwhile, it looks as if the Mayne Man underestimated the millions that 43 year old retiree Mark Birrell will score from his state-funded pension for being a Liberal MP for 20 years if this email from a subscriber is any guide: With Wooldridge and Birrell both retiring to "spend more time with the family" in their early 40s, it would appear that it is not only Macquarie Bank executives who can retire as millionaires at an early age. www.crikey.com.au /politics/2001/08/26-casey.print.html   (854 words)

printarticle. The joint chairs of a newly established all-party committee, Labor's Liz Beattie and Liberal Mark Birrell, yesterday said diggers wanted the solemnity of the day to be reflected in law to ensure future generations recognised its historical significance. Mr Birrell said many laws governing Anzac Day were outdated or inappropriate. He said most people would be shocked to learn penalties for some businesses that opened illegally on Anzac Day were just $100 - and that because poker machines did not exist when the commemoration day was first conceived, there were no laws governing the opening of pokies venues on April 25. www.theage.com.au /cgi-bin/common/printArticle.pl?path=/articles/2002/04/24/1019441263577.html   (267 words)
