Description

Population (2006) Waterford (from the Old Norse: VeðrafjÇ«rðr meaning "ram fjord" or "windy fjord" — Irish: Port Láirge meaning "Lárag's port") is the primary city of the South East region of Ireland. Founded in 914 AD by the Vikings, it is country's oldest city and its fifth largest. The city is situated at the head of Waterford Harbour (Loch Dá Chaoch/Cuan Phort Láirge). The city motto Urbs Intacta Manet Waterfordia ("Waterford remains the untaken city") was granted by King Henry VII of England in 1497 after Waterford refused to recognise the claims of the pretenders Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck to the English throne. Waterford withstood a siege by Cromwell's New Model Army. It later surrendered to Henry Ireton on 6 August 1650.[1][2]. Waterford is the largest city in Ireland to retain its Viking-derived name, Vedrarfjord.[3] Reginald's Tower is the oldest urban civic building in Ireland, and the oldest monument to retain its Viking name. To this day, it remains Waterford's most recognisable landmark. It is believed to be the first building in Ireland to use mortar. The population of the city in 2006 was 49,240; of which 45,775 lived within the city limits, and 3,465 lived in the suburbs in County Kilkenny.[4], making it the Irish Republic's fifth largest city. The River Suir, which flows through Waterford city, has provided a basis for its long maritime history. The place where the Nore and the Barrow join the River Suir downriver from Waterford is known in Irish as Cumar na dTrí Uisce, "the confluence of the three waters". Waterford Port has been one of Ireland's major ports for over a millennium. In the 19th century shipbuilding was a major industry. The owners of the Neptune Shipyard, the Malcomson family, built and operated the largest fleet of iron steamers in the world between the mid-1850s and the late-1860s, including five trans-atlantic passenger liners.[3] Today, Waterford is synonymous with Waterford Crystal the world over, a legacy of one of the city's most successful and enduring industries, glass making, , but the crystal factory was closed in 2009[1]. Glass, or crystal, has been manufactured in the city since 1783. Waterford is the sister city of St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador and Rochester, New York.

Education

The city is served by 21 primary schools[24] and 9 secondary schools.[25] There are 2 third level institutions in Waterford: Waterford Institute of Technology, which is currently being considered for university status[26] and the Waterford College of Further Education[27]. Waterford is the only city in the Republic of Ireland without a National University. The Quaker co-educational boarding school, Newtown School is situated in Waterford, east of the city centre. Waterpark College is a secondary school in the city of Waterford, Ireland. The school was established in 1892 on the banks of the River Suir as Waterfords' first classical school , and still provides a secondary education to boys from Waterford City, County and the surrounding area.

The Tall Ships festival, held in Waterford in 2005, marked the start of the Tall Ships race of that year. The Suir river provided a perfect berthing location for the numerous tall ships that lined the north and south quays, for almost a week. The festival attracted in the region of 450,000 people to the city in what was the biggest event ever held in Waterford or the south east. On the 27th March, 2007, it was confirmed that Waterford will host the start of the Tall Ships race again in 2011.

History

Main article - History of Waterford Viking raiders first established a settlement at Waterford in 853. Waterford and all the other longphorts were vacated in 902, the Vikings having been driven out by the native Irish. The Vikings re-established themselves in Ireland at Waterford in 914 and built what would be Ireland's first city. A list of the city's rulers from this date to the mayors of the present day can be found in Rulers of Waterford. In 1137, Diarmuid MacMorrough, King of Leinster, failed in an attempt to take Waterford. He returned in 1170 with Norman mercenaries under Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (Strongbow); together they besieged and took Waterford after a desperate defence. This was the introduction of the Anglo-Normans into Ireland. In 1171, Henry II of England landed at Waterford. Waterford and then Dublin were declared royal cities, Dublin was declared capital of Ireland. After the Protestant Reformation, Waterford remained a Catholic city and participated in the confederation of Kilkenny - an independent Catholic government from 1642-49. This was ended abruptly by Oliver Cromwell, who brought the country back under English rule; his nephew Henry Ireton finally took Waterford in 1650 after a major siege.[6] The 18th century was a period of huge prosperity for Waterford. Most of the city's best architecture appeared during this time. In the 19th century, great industries such as glass making and ship building thrived in the city. In the early 1800s, Waterford City was deemed vulnerable and the British government erected three Martello towers on the Hook Peninsula to reinforce the existing Fort at Duncannon. The city was represented in the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1891-1918 by John Redmond MP, leader (from January 1900) of the Irish Parliamentary Party. Redmond, then leader of the pro-Parnell faction of the party, defeated David Sheehy in 1891. In 1911, Br. Jerome Foley, Br. Dunstan Drumm and Br. Leopold Loughran left Waterford for Malvern, Australia. Here, they founded a Catholic college which is still in existence today [7]. In July 1922, Waterford was the scene of fighting between Irish Free State and Irish Republican troops during the Irish Civil War.

Libraries

There are three public libraries in the city, all operated by Waterford City Council: Central Library, in Lady Lane; Ardkeen Library, in the Ardkeen shopping centre on the Dunmore Road; and Brown's Road Library, on Paddy Brown's Road. Central Library, or Waterford City Library, opened in 1905. It was the first of many Irish libraries funded by businessman Andrew Carnegie (Carnegie funded 2,509 libraries across the world). It was renovated in 2004 for its centenary.

Literature

Poet Seán Dunne was born in Waterford in 1956 and grew up in St John's Park. He attended Mount Sion CBS in Barrack Street and wrote with affection of the city in his memoir "My Father's House".

Museums

Waterford Museum of Treasures, in the Granary on Merchant's Quay, is the city's foremost museum, housing a collection spanning over 1,000 years of the city's history [12]. Reginald's Tower, the oldest urban civic building in the country, is situated on the Quays/The Mall, in Waterford. It has performed numerous functions over the years and today is a civic museum. There is a new museum at Mount Sion (Barrack Street) dedicated to the story of Brother Edmund Ignatius Rice and the history of the Christian Brothers and Presentation Brothers. Along with the museum there is a cafe and a new chapel.

Places of interest

The old city of Waterford consists of various cultural quarters. The oldest is what has been referred to as the Viking triangle. This is the part of the city surrounded by the original 10th century fortifications, which is triangular in shape with its apex at Reginald's tower. Though this was once the site of a thriving Viking city, the city centre has shifted to the west over the years, and it is now a quiet and tranquil area, dominated by narrow streets, medieval architecture, and civic spaces. Over the past decade, a number of restaurants have opened in High Street and Henrietta Street, taking advantage of the charming character of the area. Much of Waterford's impressive architecture is to be found in the Viking triangle. In the 15th century, the city was enlarged with the building of an outer wall on the west side. Today Waterford retains more of its city walls than any other city in Ireland with the exception of Derry, whose walls were built much later. Tours of Waterford's city walls are conducted daily. The Quay, once termed by historian Mark Girouard 'the noblest quay in Europe', is a mile long from Grattan Quay to Adelphi Quay, though Adelphi Quay is now a residential area. It is still a major focal point for Waterford, commercially and socially, and the face that Waterford presents to those traveling into the city from the north. Near Reginald's Tower is the William Vincent Wallace Plaza, a monument and amenity built around the time of the millennium that commemorates the Waterford born composer. John Roberts Square is a pedestrianised area that is one of the main focal points of Waterford's modern day commercial centre. It was named after the city's most celebrated architect, John Roberts, and was formed from the junction of Barronstrand Street, Broad Street and George's Street. It is often referred to locally as Red Square, due to the red paving that was used when the area was first pedestrianised. A short distance to the east of John Roberts Square is Arundel Square, another square with a fine commercial tradition, which the City Square shopping centre opens onto. Ballybricken, in the west, just outside the city walls, is thought to have been Waterford's Irishtown, a type of settlement that often formed outside Irish cities to house the Vikings and Irish that had been expelled during the Norman conquest of Ireland. Ballybricken is an inner city neighbourhood with a long tradition, centred around Ballybricken hill, which was a large, open market-square. Today it has been converted into a green, civic space, but the Bull Post, where livestock was once bought and sold, still stands as a remnant of the hill's past. The Mall is a fine Georgian thoroughfare, built by the Wide Streets Commission in order to extend the city southwards. It contains some of the city's finest Georgian architecture. The People's Park, Waterford's largest and finest park, is located nearby. Ferrybank in Co Kilkenny is Waterford city's only suburb north of the river. It contains a village centre of its own. Kilkenny Co Council have granted permission for a number of major retail developments in Ferrybank. One has been completed and the second is currently under construction and due to be completed in January 2009. In April 2003 an important site combining a 5th century Iron Age and 9th century Viking settlement was discovered at Woodstown near the city, which appears to have been a Viking town that predates all such settlements in Ireland.[8]

Politics

Waterford City has 15 elected representatives (councillors) who sit on Waterford City Council. The city is divided into 3 "wards" (or areas) and residents in these areas are restricted to voting for candidates located in their ward for local elections. A mayor is then elected by the councillors every year. The current Mayor of Waterford is Cllr John Halligan. Mary O'Halloran who was mayor during 2007/2008 was the first woman to hold the post. The office of the Mayor of Waterford was established 1377. Each major is elected for a 1 year term, and there is no limit to the number of terms an individual may serve. See rulers of Waterford.

The main railway station servicing Waterford city is Plunkett (named in honour of nationalist leader Joseph Plunkett). It is located across Edmund Rice bridge on the north side of the Suir. Waterford railway station opened on 26 August 1864.[28] There are seven daily connections to Dublin; four daily connections to Limerick Junction; and one direct daily connection each way to Rosslare Europort and onwards to Wexford & Enniscorthy. There are no direct passenger services between Waterford and Cork since the Waterford to Mallow line closed to passengers in 1967. A change at Limerick Junction allows passengers to join the Dublin-Cork line. There is a direct line between Waterford and Limerick, but passengers must change at Limerick Junction on all services. There is also a direct line to Rosslare Europort. The Waterford to Ballinacourty railway, part of the Mallow branch, was preserved to allow for freight to be transported from Quigley Magnesite. The line shut in 1982 with the shock closure of Quigley Magnesite and the line was finally lifted in 1993. The line to New Ross closed to passengers in 1964 and to freight rail in 1976. The Waterford to Tramore Railway closed in 1961. The Waterford & Suir Valley Railway[29] follows 6 km of the old Waterford to Dungarvan/Cork route on a narrow gauge line. It is a heritage route that runs between Waterford and Kilmeaden. The panoramic views from this line are considered to be exceptional.

This project will include the Western Link road that will connect the bypass to the Outer Ring Road. The Outer Ring Road (R710), is a major road that encircles the south of the city. When the bypass and Western Link are finished by 2010, it will be possible to travel in a circle almost the entire way around the city, from the Dunmore Road to Slieverue in County Kilkenny.

The Club which changed its name to United in 1982 played its games in the city's greyhound racing stadium at Kilcohan Park. At the end of the 1992/93 season, the Club were granted the use of the Regional Sports Centre, due to the absence of owning their own pitch. The Club has had mixed fortunes through its history, success peaking in a near decade spell of domination of the domestic game between 1965 and 1973 which led to games being played at European level against teams that included Manchester United and Celtic.

Because executives, including CEO, COO, CFO, CIO, CTO, CMO, CSO, VP, SVP, EVP, Vice President, Presidents, Chairman, and General Managers seldom have time for dating in the traditional ways. The executive dating industry has so far been dominated by matchmakers and other offline matchmaking entities such as Its Just Lunch, Sterling Introductions, Valenti International, Kelleher & Associates, or the millionaire matchmaker such as Patti Stanger. Offline or personal matchmakers typically charge thousands of dollars, and produce results that are unspectacular. For instance, personal matchmaker Great Expectations was found by the courts to have misrepresented their services to their executive and millionaire members. Top executives are among the highest paid workers; however, long hours, considerable travel, and intense pressure to succeed are common. CEO or Chief Executive Officer is responsible for managing all top executives and answers directly to a board of directors. COO or Chief Operating Officer may be delegated several responsibilities, including the authority to oversee executives who direct the activities of various departments and implement the organization’s policies on a day-to-day basis. CFO or Chief Financial Officer direct the organization’s financial goals, objectives, and budgets. They oversee the investment of funds and manage associated risks, supervise cash management activities, execute capital-raising strategies to support a firm’s expansion, and deal with mergers and acquisitions. CIO or Chief Information Officer are responsible for the overall technological direction of their organizations. CIO may also stand for Chief Investment Officer usually a post at a bank or investment bank. CMO or Chief Marketing Officer are sometimes called Vice President or VP of Marketing, SVP or EVP, and are responsible for directing the company’s marketing strategy. CSO or Chief Sales Officer are sometimes called Vice President, or VP of Sales, and are responsible for directly the company’s sales strategy and managing the company’s sales team.;

SeekingMillionaire.com provides self-help matchmaking in Waterford, California, United States. There are many millionaire matchmakers, however matchmakers charge tens of thousands of dollars for their matchmaking services which are seldom better than the “do it yourself” approach. With the internet as accessible to almost everyone, the do it yourself approach appears to be the best. Matchmakers are people who engage in matchmaking, which is for some a full time profession. Matchmaking is any process of introducing people for the purpose of marriage. In some cultures, the role of the matchmaker was and is quite professionalized. High class matchmaking, upscale matchmaking or executive matchmaking companies such as SterlingIntroductions.com, TheRightOne.com, or ValentiInernational.com provide personalized one-on-one introductions to accomplished, affluent and discriminating singles who are looking for committed long-term relationships or marriage. Matchmakers redefined matchmaking by employing personalized strategies to ensure success in the search for the ideal partner. Some matchmakers operate completely “off-line”, getting to know their members personally and provide hand-selected introductions based on shared values, preferences and interests. Some people refer to this as ‘executive dating’; two successful people who are educated professionals that have a strong desire for a long-term romantic commitment. Matchmakers provide an in-depth process that matches compatibility at many levels including family values, social and economic backgrounds and many other important factors that enable a positive and rewarding relationship.

SeekingMillionaire.com features many celebrities and famous people in Waterford, California, United States – including actors, actresses, singers, performers, pro athletes, politicians, and wealthy entrepreneurs. So if you are looking to socialize or date a celebrity, SeekingMillionaire.com is the place for you. By definition, a celebrity is a person who is famously recognized in a society. There are degrees of celebrity status which vary based on an individual's region or field of notoriety. While someone might be a celebrity to some people, to others he may be completely unknown. A global celebrity on the other hand is someone who is known by most people or is a mainstream celebrity. Such a celebrity is also known as either a household name or superstar. For example, Virgin Director Richard Branson was notable as a CEO, but he did not become a global celebrity until he attempted to circumnavigate the globe in a hot air balloon and generate publicity for himself. Another high profile categorization of celebrity status is the A-list, based on the marketability of celebrities. SeekingMillionaire.com is the only luxury celebrity dating website featuring more celebrities than any other upscale dating service. Our dating service is designed to help you meet and date everyone from actual movie stars, athletes, politicians, celebrities or ordinary people who looks like celebrities. Social networking and online dating Web sites have become popular for letting everyday people create celebrity-like identities for themselves. Celebrities are using the very same sites to shun their Hollywood identities in favor of meeting everyday people. Stars like Joan Rivers and Halle Berry have confessed to checking out online dating sites. Rivers' profile also tells readers she is a comedian, interested in "coffee and conversation" and includes a picture of the 72-year-old comic. Even beautiful Oscar-winner Halle Berry has admitted to spending a lot of time in chat rooms, and to dabbling with dating sites. “I am never who I am,” Berry told Contact Music in July about her experiences online. “I have been to a couple of dating ones just to see what everybody is talking about. I chime in and say a little fun stuff." While it seems unthinkable that stars who attend A-list parties would want to have coffee with the average Joe or Jane, some celebrities really just want to be normal. “They can stop being celebrities and start being people,” she said. “Online dating lets people get to know you for what kind of person you are, not who you are.";
