Talk:Myometrium

Problem with ref link: Ref 1 (Aguilar & Mitchell, 2010, Human Reproduction Update) has the correct doi link but for some reason the hyperlink under the title goes somewhere else entirely (a Journal of Paleontology article from 1998 about an entirely unrelated topic). Have tried to determine the problem in the basic wiki code but could not find it. The ref appears to be entered properly. Can anyone else figure out what the problem is? - Chicagoshim, 3/20/2011

What does homogeneous echo pattern to the myometrium mean?

Seán Haughey

Seán Haughey (born 8 November 1961) is an Irish Fianna Fáil politician who has been a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Dublin Bay North constituency since 2016, and previously from 1992 to 2011 for the Dublin North-Central constituency. He served as a Minister of State from 2006 to 2011 and Lord Mayor of Dublin from 1989 to 1990. He was a Senator for the Administrative Panel from 1987 to 1992.

Early life
The son of former Taoiseach Charles Haughey and Maureen Lemass, Haughey was educated at St Paul's College, Raheny, Dublin, and Trinity College Dublin, where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and Politics.

Political career
Haughey entered politics in 1985 when he was elected to Dublin City Council for the Artane local electoral area. He was re-elected to the council in 1991 and 1999 and served until 2003. He was Lord Mayor of Dublin from 1989 to 1990.

Haughey served as a member of Seanad Éireann from 1987 until 1992. In that year he was elected to Dáil Éireann as a Fianna Fáil TD for Dublin North-Central. He had unsuccessfully contested the Dublin North-East constituency at the 1987 and 1989 general elections.

In June 2006, Haughey apologised for failing to disclose receiving £2,300 from Monarch Properties to the Mahon Tribunal. Haughey was appointed by Bertie Ahern in December 2006 as a Minister of State at the Department of Education and Science, with responsibility for Adult Education, Youth Affairs and Educational Disadvantage. In June 2007, he was appointed as Minister of State at the Department of Education and Science and at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment with responsibility for Lifelong Learning, Youth Work and School Transport. He was re-appointed by Brian Cowen in 2008, and again when the number of junior ministers was reduced.

He lost his seat at the 2011 general election. He was elected to Dublin City Council for the Clontarf local electoral area at the 2014 local elections. He regained a seat in the Dáil at the 2016 general election, when he was returned for the new Dublin Bay North constituency. He was re-elected at the general election in February 2020.

As of 2021, Haughey is the biggest stock market shareholder in the Dáil, holding at least €442,000 in shares, including shares in Pfizer and Amazon.

On 6 February 2024, Haughey announced that he would not contest the next general election.

Personal life
Haughey is a member of a political family. His father was Charles Haughey, while his maternal grandfather was Seán Lemass; each served as Taoiseach. His uncle Noel Lemass and aunt Eileen Lemass were also members of Dáil Éireann. Through his father, Haughey is also related to Olympic medalist Siobhán Haughey.

Haughey is married to Orla O'Brien, and the couple have four children.

On 4 February 2021, he undertook godparenthood for Vitold Ashurak, Belarusian activist and political prisoner. After the death of Ashurak in May, Haughey took over the patronage of Dzyanis Ivashin, a journalist of Novy Chas and Belarusian political prisoner, on 30 June 2021.

Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS, defaulting to keep - only one vote cast. -- Jonel | Speak 07:53, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Adversity
current entry is not much more than a dictionary entry, and it already exists in Wikictionary...I would support this entry if more were added to it, something talking about different kinds of adversity, but I simply don't have time, and I'm not sure if it would work anyway. As the somewhat reluctant nominator, I abstain from this vote. StopTheFiling 18:16, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment VFD is crowded enough already without uncertain nominations.—Wahoofive (talk) 23:05, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, assuming that this is already in Wikitionary. This is merely a definition and I fail to see how this could be crafted into an article- it's far too general a topic.--M412k 23:47, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages.  Please do not edit this page .

User:Gcapp1959

Geoffrey Capp (born 1959, London, Ontario, Canada) was a customer service representative at a telephone company until January 2007, and after some years of miscellaneous work and some more education, is presently employed with a trucking company as its on-site bookkeeper and payroll clerk. He is particularly interested in geography (strongly preferred category in Trivial Pursuit), with applicable history. He is also developing a science fiction story that he hopes to publish.

Faith and Service
Geoff, an evangelical Christian and member of the Church of the Nazarene, seeks to obey the Great Commandment by seeking to serve the people through political involvement, and has run eight times for office, seven times federally (Yukon riding in 1993, 1997, 2000, 2004, Lethbridge riding in 2008, 2011, 2015) and once for the Yukon legislature (2002), representing the Christian Heritage Party federally and on analogous policies for the legislature election. He has not committed to run for the party in the 43rd general election, and is open to local member preference.

There is no userbox for Canadian politics that Geoff can use to represent his party preference.

Geoff continues to support the CHP as the best expression he can find to obey the Great Commandment, and views all 7.3 billion people on Earth as neighbours to whom the commandment applies for him to carry out. Geoff had supported the Progressive Conservative Party from about 1977 to 1987, but abandoned it due to the scandal and financial incompetence of the Mulroney government; he joined the CHP immediately upon being introduced to it in 1988, supporting their candidate in his riding.

Interest in politics predates involvement, and included an extensive project in the late 1970s to complete detailed references to elections both federally and provincially/territorially, with exhaustive information on dates of elections, byelections, vacancies, writs, defections, opening and adjournment dates, etc. The time required to research this information, losing easy access to the source material, and the time required for responsibilities left the project incomplete, but certainly, much of the information can now be found on Wikipedia and other Internet sources.

A novice Wikipedian
Geoff has contributed to Wikipedia for some time without an actual account, but took the plunge on June 15, 2005. His interest is in articles that represent as truthfully as possible, respect diverging viewpoints and defending the right to state opinions that are not universally accepted. He would be considered a novice at formatting articles, but catches on with use of format codes.
