Before long, Cale and Akima find out that Korso is looking for the Titan in order to hand it over to the Drej.
They escape from him but become stranded on a drifter colony.
Cale and Akima repair one of the wrecked spacecraft at the colony.
They use it to go to where the Titan has been hidden.
Inside the Titan, Cale and Akima learn that Professor Tucker had been one of the main people who designed the craft.
The designers felt that the destruction of Earth would happen.
Because of this, they gave the Titan the ability to create a new planet.
They loaded it with the DNA of every living Earth plant and animal so they could repopulate the new world.
However, the ship lost the energy and cannot recreate the planet.
Korso finds and boards the Titan.
He attacks Cale and Akima, but one of his men attacks him.
Korso kills the man by breaking his neck, then fights with Cale.
During the fight, Korso falls over a railing.
Cale trying to save him but Korso slips from Cale's grip and falls to his apparent death.
Akima, Cale and others from Korso's ship work together to defend the Titan against the Drej attack.
Cale thinks that the energy that makes up the Drej and their ships may be used to power up the Titans systems.
Korso shows up again, but sacrifices himself repair a circuit breaker just as the Drej ship shoots an energy beam at the Titan.
Using the power of the beam, the Titan powers up and takes all the Drej energy.
The Drej are destroyed while the ship creates a new planet.
The movie ends with Akima and Cale standing on their new world.
Akima wants to name the planet "New Earth," while Cale wants to name it "Bob" and all the human coming to the planet named "New Earth [Planet Bob]."

Johann Heinrich Schmelzer (born Austria some time between 1620 and 1623; died in Prague some time between 29 February and 20 March) was a German composer.
He was one of the most important composers of instrumental music in the mid-17th century.
He became a member of the imperial chapel in the mid 1630’s.
His job there was probably a violinist.
We know very little about his life, except that over the years he became a famous composer.
The emperor must have liked him because he gave him presents of money and gold chains.
In 1671 he became deputy Kapellmeister at the imperial court.
In 1673 the emperor gave him the honorary title “von Ehrenruef” which he put after his name.
A few years later the court moved to Prague to try to escape the plague that was killing so many people in Vienna.
At the end of 1679 the emperor’s Kapellmeister died and Schmelzer became Kapellmeister.
It was the first time that the Kapellmeister at the Habsburg court had not been a foreigner but an Austrian.
However, the following March Schmelzer died of the plague.
Schmelzer wrote a lot of music for small groups of instruments as well as a lot of ballet music.
His dance suites are made up of several dances such as galliard, bourree,  sarabande, gigue, gavotte and allemande as well as more unusual dances.
He wrote several sonatas for two violins and continuo.
They are full of fast scales and arpeggios.
He also seems to have written church music, but it has all been lost.

They are quite small in comparison with the energy they put out.
Quasars are not much larger than the Solar System.
The mechanism of brightness changes probably involves relativistic beaming of jets pointed nearly directly toward us.
The highest redshift quasar known () has a redshift of 7.085, which means it is about 29 billion light-years from Earth.
This estimate is made using the concept of comoving distance.
Scientists now agree that a quasar is a compact region in the center of a massive galaxy surrounding a central supermassive black hole.
Its size is 10–10,000 times the Schwarzschild radius of the black hole.
The energy emitted by a quasar is gravitational energy, created from mass falling onto the accretion disc around the black hole.
Quasars are extremely luminous.
They were first identified as being high redshift sources of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves and visible light.
The light (and other energy) appeared to be similar to stars, rather than large sources like galaxies.
On the other hand, their spectra had very broad emission lines, unlike any known from stars, hence "quasi-stellar".
Their luminosity can be 100 times greater than that of the Milky Way.
This means that most galaxies, including our own Milky Way, may have gone through an active stage as a quasar or some other class of active galaxy.
They are now dormant because they lack a supply of matter to feed into their central black holes to generate radiation.
Dáil Éireann ( literally Assembly of Ireland) is the lower house of the parliament of Ireland.
Its members are elected by all Irish citizens of voting age (which is now 18).
Members of Dáil Éireann are called Teachta Dala (TD).
First Dáil
The First Dáil was elected at the British General election of 1918.
The Sinn Féin people who were elected did not go to the House of Commons.
Instead they stayed in Dublin and set up the First Dáil.
The first British woman MP was Countess Markiewicz.
Because she was a Sinn Féiner, she went to the first Dáil Éireann instead.
That is why many people think Lady Astor was Britain's first woman MP.
Second Dáil
In 1922, during the War of Independence, the British passed the Government of Ireland Act.
The act set up two parliaments, one for Northern Ireland and one for Southern Ireland.
There was no election in Southern Ireland because only Sinn Féin candidates stood.
They did not meet as the House of Commons of Southern Ireland.
Instead they, and the only Sinn Feiner elected only in Northern Ireland met as the Second Dáil.
On the first day of the Second Dáil Éamon de Valera, President of the Irish Republic, said there would be no need to fight or negotiate with Britain if the British prime minister remembered that he had said   De Valera said that if Poland had the right to its own government, so did Ireland.
The Second Dáil ratified (that is, confirmed) the Anglo-Irish Treaty, by a vote of 64 to 57.
After this the 64 pro-treaty members met as the House of Commons of Southern Ireland, with the four University MPs, and voted to accept the treaty again.
Third Dáil
The pro-independence Dáil, following on from the First and Second Dáils, and
The Provisional Parliament, following on from the House of Commons of Southern Ireland
Dáil Debates
The official record of everything said in the Dáil is called  or .
Volume (book) one starts on the day the Third Dáil met, so the record of the First Dáil is called Book F, and the Second Dáil starts with book S.
Election of the Dáil
TDs are elected in multi-member constituencies, unlike the British House of Commons or the American House of Representatives, which are single-member constituencies.
There can be three, four, or five TDs in each constituency.
Voters can vote for as many candidates as they want, but they rank them in order of preference, 1,2,3...
If the Chairman of Dáil Éireann, called the Ceann Comhairle, wants to stand for re-election he is  does not have to be elected.
The law and the constitution say that he is given a seat in his old constituency.
Powers of Dáil Éireann
The Taoiseach, (Prime Minister), the Tánaiste (deputy prime minister)  and the Minister of Finance must be members of Dáil Éireann.
The Dáil can pass a bill even if the Seanad objects, but the Supreme Court can decide that the act is not allowed by the Constitution.
The President can also ask the Supreme Court if the bill is not allowed by the constitution before he/she signs it.
1920s establishments in the United Kingdom
The Taoiseach (), also referred to as An Taoiseach (), is the head of the government in Ireland.
The term prime minister is not used by the Irish media.
When a new Dáil Éireann meets after an election it nominates one of its members to be Taoiseach.
He then visits the President, and is appointed.
He then presents a list of ministers to the Dáil and when this is approved they are also appointed by the President.
If the Taoiseach resigns all members of the government are said to have resigned as well.
If a minister does not resign when asked by the Taoiseach, the Taoiseach can ask the President to sack the minister.
The President cannot refuse to do this.
Department of the Taoiseach
The Department of the Taoiseach helps the Taoiseach to do his job.
The main duty of the Taoiseach is to start policy and coordinate policy of the rest of government.
Especially policies on Economic and Social Development, Northern Ireland, the European Union and Public Sector Change and Oireachtas Reform.
Anton Webern (born Vienna 3 December 1883; died Mitterill 15 September 1945) was an Austrian composer.
Webern and Alban Berg were the most famous pupils of Arnold Schoenberg, the composer who had invented the twelve tone system.
This style of composition is often called the “Second Viennese School”.
Webern was probably Schoenberg’s first pupil, and Berg joined them a few weeks later.
Webern used the rules of the twelve tone system very strictly in his music.
His compositions had a lot of influence on composers of the mid-20th century who were interested in serialism, especially Karlheinz Stockhausen and Pierre Boulez.
Most of Webern’s compositions are very short.
Anton was born Anton von Webern.
Webern’s father was a mining engineer who later got an important government job.
The family had belonged to the nobility which is why they had “von” before the family name.
In 1918 a law was made in Austria to stop people from using “von” as part of their name, and so from then onwards he was always known as “Anton Webern”.
Anton learned to play the cello and the piano.
They had a country house where the family spent the summer, and the young boy spent a lot of time composing, especially songs to the poems of famous German poets such as Stefan George and Richard Dehmel.
Together with his friend and cousin Ernst he read the philosophical books of Friedrich Nietzsche, studied modern paintings and listened to the music of Richard Wagner.
His father took him to the Bayreuth Festival.
He went to study at the University of Vienna where he continued to compose a lot of music.
By 1906 he had been given a doctorate for writing about the composer Heinrich Isaac.
Influence of Schoenberg
When Webern became a pupil of Schoenberg he was joining a small group of musicians who were to be lifelong friends.
Alban Berg was a member of this group.
The music these people were writing sounded very modern at the time and they had to face a lot of criticism.
Berg and Webern were official pupils of Schoenberg only for two years, but they continued to work with him, often copying out music for him.
They also helped him financially and, when Schoenberg moved to Berlin, Webern moved there to be near him.
Webern composed more twelve-tone music during these years.
He also worked as a conductor to earn some money.
He was only interested in music by German and Austrian composers.
He tried to get several teaching jobs, but the only one he managed to get was at the Israel Institute for the Blind in Vienna, where he taught for six years.
During the 1930s Webern faced many difficulties.
He did not have much money, Schoenberg went to live in France and then the  United States because of the political situation in Europe.
Alban Berg died in 1935 and his own conducting career came to an end.
When the Nazis came to power in Austria they banned Webern’s music because they thought it was bad (they called it “degenerate art”).
His son was killed fighting in World War II.
Four months after the war had ended he was sitting on the veranda of his daughter’s house smoking a cigar after dinner when he was shot dead by one of the occupying troops.
He should have been inside because there was a curfew on.
His son-in-law had just been arrested for selling things on the black market.
Webern’s early music was in the style of expressionism.
Later he wrote using the twelve tone system.
He liked using very high and very low notes, as well as silences in his music.
Although most of his pieces were very short, every note was carefully planned.
Officially he composed 31 works, and these fit onto 6 CDs.
A lot of his music still sounds very modern to us today.
Seanad Éireann (; Senate of Ireland) is the second house of the Irish parliament, the Oireachtas.
It can initiate (start) and revise legislation, except bills for raising tax and spending money (Money Bills).
Financial legislation must start in Dáil Éireann, and the Seannad can only suggest changes, it cannot force the changes to be accepted.
Seanad Éireann slows Dáil Éireann.
All bills must be looked at by the Seannad, so it is a safeguard against laws being passed too quickly.
Seanad Éireann also debates important issues.
Also, Seanad Éireann can debate these issues with more freedom because the fate of the Government will not be at stake.
If the government loses a vote in Seanad Éireann it could be embarrassing, but under the constitution if the Government loses a vote in Dáil Éireann they might have to call new elections.
Members of Dáil Éireann are members from the first meeting of Dáil Éireann after a general election until the Dáil is dissolved.
Members of Seanad Éireann are members from the first meeting until the day before the next general election of the Seanad.
Elections for Dáil Éireann must be within 30 days of being dissolved.
Elections for the Seanad must be within 90 days of Dáil Éireann's dissolution.
The Seanad must be elected after the Dáil, because new TDs are allowed to vote in a Seanad election.
11 are nominated to be members by the new Taoiseach after a general election
49 are elected from panels of candidates
Elected Senators
Three senators are elected by the National University of Ireland;
Three are elected by the University of Dublin;
43 are elected from 5 panels of candidates:-

The university seats shows how much Éamon de Valera, who wrote the Constitution of Ireland was influenced by the British Parliament.
At the time it was written the universities of Oxford and Cambridge had their own MPs in the House of Commons.
Graduates of those universities voted for these MPs as well as for the MP were they lived.
Protein biosynthesis (synthesis) is when cells build proteins.
The term is sometimes used to refer only to protein translation but more often it refers to a multi-step process.
Amino acids are either synthesised or eaten in food.
Then, after the transcription of polypeptide genes, the amino acids are put together.
This is done by translation and RNA splicing which produces messenger RNAs.
The splicing process produces the final proteins, which then fold up into their protein structure.
Then they can function.
The plural is used here because, with most genes, the splicing process produces more than one final working protein.
One particular Drosophila gene (DSCAM) can be alternatively spliced into 38,000 different mRNA.

A California hurricane is a tropical cyclone that affects the state of California.
Usually Pacific hurricanes weaken a lot before getting to land.
Normally, rainfall is the only effect that Pacific hurricanes have on California.
Sometimes, this rainfall is strong enough to cause flooding and some damage.
For example, floods from Hurricane Kathleen in 1976 created damages scattered across the southeastern California area and killed three people.
Why hurricanes do not normally hit California
Tropical cyclones usually need sea surface temperatures above 26.5 °C (80 °F) with a depth of 50 meters (160 feet) to survive.
But the waters off the California coast are too cold for tropical cyclones, even during the summer.
Normally, the waters' temperatures do not get above 17 °C (70 °F), although El Nino effects may peariodicly warm the pacific waters off of the California coastline.
Also the California Current moves down from the northwestern US coast to the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, which is the opposite in which Northern Hemisphere tropical cyclones move.
While a few tropical cyclones may hit the southern and central areas of the Baja California peninsula, they do not make landfall any farther north than that.
List of California hurricanes
1950s to 1990s
August 27 - August 29, 1951: The remnants of a tropical cyclone brought enough rain to wash out some roads in southern California.
September 10 - September 11, 1976 : Hurricane Kathleen crossed the peninsula of Baja California and moved into California as a tropical storm.
Yuma, Arizona reported sustained winds of 91 km/h (57 mph).
Rainfall from Kathleen created huge damages to southeastern California and killed at least three people.
August 18 - August 19, 1977: Hurricane Doreen dissipated off the coast of California.
The remnants moved inland and created flooding and crop damage as 7.01 inches (178 mm) of rain fell on Yuma Valley, Arizona.
October 5 - October 12, 1987: Weather associated with Hurricane Ramon caused moderate to heavy rains in southern California.
The highest amount noted was 2.14 inches (54 mm) at Camp Pendleton.
September 13 - September 14, 1997: Hurricane Linda was at one point predicted to make landfall in California.
Instead, it moved out to sea.
September 25 - September 26, 1997: After making landfall in Baja California, Hurricane Nora kept tropical storm strength into California and Arizona.
Moderate to heavy rains fell across southeast California and Arizona, with a new 24-hour maximum for Arizona  305 mm (12 inches) falling in the Mogollon Rim.
Damage totaled up to several hundred million, including US$40 million to lemon trees.
The remnants of the hurricane knocked down trees in higher areas of Utah as the circulation aloft was slower to spin down than its remnant surface low.
There were a few indirect deaths made by the hurricane.
September 2000: The remnant low from Hurricane Lane made landfall in California with minimal effects.
September 2001: The remnants of Hurricane Flossie dissipated over the deserts of the Southwest United States and caused minor damage.
September 30, 2001: Thunderstorms from the remnants of Hurricane Juliette caused minor damage to California and brought rain of less than an inch (25 mm) to the area.
September 2006: Remnants of Hurricane John triggered flash flood watches.
August 26, 2007: Remnants of Hurricane Dean made landfall in Santa Barbara area, triggering heavy rains and minor flooding throughout the Southern California Area.
August 25 2008: Tropical Storm Julio affects the state.
August 6, 2015: Hurricane Guillermo results in a rare dry-season atmospheric river.
Because of a possible threat of California hurricanes in the future and from the damaging effects of a 1858 tropical storm, the National Weather Service created tropical cyclone warning stations across the southern California coast.
But because of the fact that Pacific hurricanes rarely affected California, the idea of a warning station was later brought down.

A storm surge is a sudden rise of water hitting areas close to the coast.
Storm surges are usually created by a hurricane or other tropical cyclone.
The surge happens because a storm has fast winds and low atmospheric pressure.
Water is pushed on shore, and the water level rises.
Strong storm surges can flood coastal towns and destroy homes.
A storm surge is considered the deadliest part of a hurricane.
They kill many people each year.

Waterworld is a 1995 American science fiction action movie.
The movie stars Kevin Costner who also produced it.
Waterworld was released in the United States on July 28, 1995.
Problems during the making of the movie caused it to cost much more than expected.
It was the most expensive movie ever made at the time.
With a budget of $175 million, the movie earned $88 million at U.S. theaters.
However, the movie was successful in other countries.
It made more than a $100 million profit.
Some time in the future, after global warming, the polar icecaps have melted.
The Earth is almost entirely covered with water.
The humans that are still alive have forgotten the past.
Most people believe the world was created in a flood.
It is blasphemy to believe anything else.
There is, however, a belief of many peoples that dry land exists.
Drifters: People who sail alone in small boats.
They collecting things and trade with one each other as well as with atolls;
Atoll Dwellers: People who live in large floating constructs called atolls.
Smokers: Pirates who live on old oil tankers.
They are called smokers because of the smoke they make by using oil-powered equipment.
Slavers were mentioned by the drifter the Mariner meets early in the movie but not shown.
The main character in the movie is a drifter (Kevin Costner).
For most of the movie, he has no name.
People call him "the Mariner."
He is a genetic mutant, with webbed feet and gills.
He also appears to have very good reflexes.
The Atollers offer a trade with the Mariner: if he will stay with them long enough to get one of their women pregnant they will give him all the supplies he needs.
The Mariner does not accept their offer.
He does not like being around many people.
The Atoll's leaders are mad about this.
They have him arrested.
During the fight to capture him, they learn that he is a mutant.
They fear him and plan to "recycle" (execute) him in the Atoll's old dump for domestic waste.
As they get ready to "recycle" the Mariner, the Smokers attack.
Their leader is the Deacon.
He is the "captain" of an old oil tanker, the Exxon Valdez ("the 'Deez").
They are looking for a young girl named Enola.
She has a map to Dryland tattooed on her back.
One of their spies told them that she was there.
Enola lives with her guardian, Helen, a woman in her twenties or thirties.
Helen and Enola plan to escape with Gregor (the Atoll's astrologer/engineer) in search of Dryland.
Like the Mariner, they do not fit in with the other people.
Gregor's escape balloon is accidentally let loose too early (with him on it).
This leaves Helen and Enola on the Atoll as the Smokers attack it.
They free the Mariner after he says he will take them with him.
They all escape on his ship.
Helen learns that the Mariner knows where Dryland is and wants to see it.
The Mariner puts her in a diving bell made out of plastic and swims down to a sunken city (actually the city of Denver) to show her.
While they are looking at the sunken city, the Smokers find the Mariner's vessel and take control of it.
Enola hides on the ship.
When the Mariner and Helen return to the surface, the Smokers capture them.
The Deacon wants the Mariner and Helen to tell him where Enola is, but they will not help him find her.
The Deacon pretends to kill the Mariner and Helen by firing a gun into the sky.
This scares Enola out of hiding and she is captured by the Smokers.
The Deacon has his crew burn the Mariner's vessel and shoot at them, but they escape by diving deeper underwater than the bullets can reach.
Since the Mariner can breathe underwater, he "breathes" for both of them using a kiss.
Gregor soon appears in his flying machine.
He tells them that it was "good thinking" to burn the boat.
Gregor then takes them to where a new Atoll is being built.
The Mariner tells everyone that he is going to rescue Enola.
No one else will help him.
The Mariner goes after the Exxon Valdez on a stolen jetski.
The Deacon and his crew are celebrating finding "the map to Dryland".
Unfortunately, neither the Deacon nor his crew has any idea how to read the map.
Based on the shape of the area of Dryland, the Deacon believes that the area must be Japan.
The crew begins to row the large ship with huge oars, in the style of a Viking longship.
The Mariner walks out onto the empty deck of the ship and threatens to throw a flare down into the oil holds unless the Deacon returns Enola.
The Deacon does not believe Enola's warning that the Mariner never bluffs.
He refuses and tells the Mariner that he would be crazy to blow up the ship.
The Mariner drops the flare into the oil hold.
The flare causes the oil catch on fire.
This destroys the 'Deez in a large explosion.
The Mariner frees Enola and escapes the ship which sinks.
They float at sea for a while and then have one last battle with the Deacon (who survived the blast) before being rescued by Gregor.
Gregor understands the map and leads them in the direction of what does, in fact, turn out to be Dryland: Mount Everest.
Gregor, Enola, Helen and the others start to rebuild civilization on the island.
The Mariner builds a boat and sails away, back to his old life.

Douglas Hyde (or Dubhghlas de hÍde, born January 17, 1860, died July 12, 1949) was the first President of Ireland from 1938 to 1945.
He founded the Gaelic League, one of the most influential cultural organisations in Ireland.
He promoted use of the Irish language, using the Irish spelling of his name and the pseudonym "An Craoibhin Aoibhinn"
Hyde was born at Longford House in Castlerea in County Roscommon, while his mother was on a short visit there.
His father, Arthur Hyde, was a Church of Ireland rector.
He became fascinated with hearing the old people in the locality speak the Irish language.
At the time the Irish language was looked down on  seen as backward and old-fashioned.
He founded the Gaelic League, or in Irish, Conradh na Gaeilge, in the hope of saving it from extinction in 1893.
Conradh na Gaeilge
The league  was set up to encourage the Irish culture, music, dances, and language.
Many of the new generation of Irish leaders who played a central role in the fight for Irish independence in the early twentieth century, including Patrick Pearse, Éamon de Valera (who married his Irish teacher Sinéad Flanagan), Michael Collins, and Ernest Blythe first became passionate about Irish independence through their involvement in Conradh na Gaeilge or (Gaelic League).
Hyde himself was uncomfortable at the league becoming political instead of cultural and resigned as its president in 1915.
He was replaced by the radical political activist and Irish-language teacher, Patrick Pearse (1879-1916).
Pearse led the Easter Rising, and his election showed that the league had been infiltrated by the Irish Republican Brotherhood, just like the Irish Volunteers and the Gaelic Athletic Association
Hyde had no association with Sinn Féin or the Independence movement.
But he did accept an  appointment to the senate, part of the Irish Free State parliament.
In April 1938 he was retired, but Taoiseach Éamon de Valera appointed him to Seanad Éireann.
He was not a Senator for very long, because he was chosen to be first President of Ireland.
Both the Taoiseach, Éamon de Valera and the Leader of the Opposition, W. T. Cosgrave were admirers of his;
Both wanted to apologise for the lies others told about him in 1925;
Both wanted someone who would show that the new president would not be a dictator in Ireland.
Many were afraid of this when the new constitution was being discussed in 1937;
Both wanted to pay tribute to Hyde's Conradh na Gaeilge role in achieving Irish independence.
Both wanted to choose a non-Catholic to show that the new Ireland was a not ruled by the Catholic church.
Hyde was inaugurated as the first President of Ireland in June 1938 and moved into the old "Vice Regal Lodge", the old home of the British Lords Lieutenant of Ireland.
The lodge was also used by Governors General of the Irish Free State.
Hyde renamed it the House of the President or Áras an Uachtaráin.
Hyde said the Presidential oath of office in Irish.
The recording of his Roscommon dialect is one of the few recordings of the dialect, which has now died out.
"Fine and scholarly old gentleman" says F.D.R.
Hyde was a popular president.
United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt called him a "fine and scholarly old gentleman".
President Hyde and King George VI  corresponded about stamp collecting. (
George VI was legally King of Ireland until 1 April 1949 )
However, in April 1940 he suffered a massive stroke.
Plans were made for his lying-in-state and state funeral, but to the surprise of everyone he survived, albeit paralysed and having to use a wheelchair.
The second reference, the Court decided that the particular provision referred - section 4 of the School Attendance Bill, 1942 - was "repugnant to the Constitution".
and told the Dáil he was refusing to sign it.
Hyde left office on 25 June 1945.
Due to his ill-health he did not return to his Roscommon home Ratra.
Instead he was moved into the former Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant's residence in the grounds of Áras an Uachtaráin, which he renamed Little Ratra and where he lived out the remaining four years of his life.
He died there at 10pm on 12 July 1949, aged 89.
As a former President of Ireland he was given a state funeral.
As an Anglican his funeral service took place in Dublin's Church of Ireland St. Patrick's Cathedral.
But the Catholic Church did not let Roman Catholics attend services in Anglican churches.
As a result, all but one member of the Catholic cabinet, Dr. Noel Browne, remained outside the cathedral while Hyde's funeral took place.
They then joined the cortège when his coffin left the cathedral.
Éamon de Valera, by now Leader of the Opposition, was represented by a senior Fianna Fáil figure who was a member of the Church of Ireland, Erskine Childers, a future President of Ireland himself.
Hyde was buried in County Roscommon, where he had spent most of his childhood life.

Presidents of Ireland
Former members of Seanad Éireann
Cearbhall Ó Dálaigh  (12 February 1911 – 21 March 1978, ) served as fifth President of Ireland, from 1974 to 1976.
He was elected after the death of President Childers, but he resigned in 1976 after a clash with the government.
He also had a notable legal career, including serving as Chief Justice of Ireland.
Ó Dálaigh trained as a lawyer.
He became Ireland's youngest Attorney-General in 1946 under Taoiseach Éamon de Valera.
He was re-appointed as Attorney-General in 1951 and in 1953 he became the youngest member of the Supreme Court.
Less than a decade later, he became the youngest Chief Justice of Ireland.
When Ireland joined the European Economic Community, Jack Lynch appointed Ó Dálaigh as Ireland's judge on the European Court of Justice.
When President Childers died suddenly in 1974, all parties agreed to nominate Ó Dálaigh for the post.
Ó Dálaigh proved to be a mixed success as president.
While popular with Irish language enthusiasts and artists he had a strained relationship with the Coalition Government.
In 1976 he decided to refer a series of tough state security Bills to the Supreme Court to test their constitutionality.
This worried and angered members of the Fine Gael-Labour national coalition government.
Ó Dálaigh then announced that he would sign the bill at midnight of the 15th of October, which he made public.
There was a historical precedent for the referral of this bill.
Dubhghlas de hÍde referred the Offences Against the State (Amendment) Act of 1939 to the Supreme Court.
Jim Duffy claims that, as a result of this, the PIRA arranged an attack in Mountmellick which resulted in the killing of Garda Clerkin.
Others would dispute that the PIRA would have held the President's opinion in such high regard as their members at the time did not recognise the State of which Ó Dálaigh was then the Head.
Ó Dálaigh's actions were seen by government ministers to have contributed to the killing of this Garda and greatly angered them.
The following day, following a minor car accident, Paddy Donegan, a controversial and outspoken Minister for Defence, described the incident as a "thundering disgrace".
The president thought the minister meant that the President was a disgrace, not what  the President was doing was a disgrace.
Donegan, a known alcoholic, was likely under the influence of alcohol at the time he spoke.
He was speaking to members of the Irish Defence Forces, and was only at the barracks to open a new cookhouse.
Donegan insulted the President, who is Head of the Defence Forces in front of the defence forces.
created a major political incident.
Ó Dálaigh thought that the President and the Minister of Defence would be unable to work together.
The apologetic Donegan immediately offered his resignation.
But Taoiseach Liam Cosgrave refused the offers, an offer he repeated subsequently.
Cosgrave never met the President personally to apologise.
That added to two years in which Cosgrave had failed to do his constitutional duty to regularly brief the President.
The manner in which his government treated the President was the last straw for President Ó Dálaigh.
The opposition proposed outgoing EEC Commissioner Patrick Hillery for the presidency.
Hillery served two unchallenged terms of office before retiring at the end of his second term in 1990.
Death and assessment
Ó Dálaigh died in 1978, less than two years after leaving office.
He is buried in Sneem, County Kerry.
Cearbhall Ó Dálaigh was the most politically naïve president, but the Government he worked with was notable for its own inability to offer him the help to overcome the problem.
The Taoiseach did not support Ó Dálaigh when Donegan attacked him.

Translation is the second part of protein biosynthesis (the making of proteins).
It is part of the process of gene expression.
transcription, which produces a chain of introns and exons.
RNA splicing by spliceosomes which remove introns, and
formulation of the messenger RNA from exons.
In eukaryotes, translation happens on the ribosomes in the cytoplasm and in the endoplasmic reticulum.
In bacteria, translation happens in the cell cytoplasm: they have no nucleus.
Ribosomes are made of a small part and a large part which surround the mRNA (messenger RNA).
In translation, mRNA has the base sequence to make a specific polypeptide.
This sequence is originally specified by the DNA, and copied by the mRNA.
The polypeptide can be a whole protein.
Or, it can be just a part, waiting to be combined with other polypeptides so it can make a whole protein.
The polypeptide also has to be folded before it works as a protein.
Amino acids are carried by specific tRNAs with anticodons to connect with mRNA's matching codons.
Each tRNA has its own anticodon and carries an amino acid.
An anticodon is always together with the same amino acid.
So, a ribosome works a lot like a stock ticker and ticker tape.
Many ribosomes, together with mRNA, will attach themselves to the outer membrane of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
Any proteins that those ribosomes make go into the inside of the endoplasmic reticulum, where it will probably go into a vesicle later.
The vesicles will then bring the proteins to other organelles or even the outside of the cell.
Four stages
Translation happens in four stages: activation (make ready), initiation (start), elongation (make longer) and termination (stop).
These terms describe the growth of the amino acid chain (polypeptide).
Amino acids are brought to ribosomes and assembled into proteins.
In the activation stage, the correct amino acid is covalently bonded to the correct transfer RNA (tRNA).
When the tRNA is connected to an amino acid, it is "charged".
Initiation is when the small part of the ribosome connects to 5' end of the mRNA with the help of initiation factors (IF).
Elongation is when the amino acids brought by the "charged" tRNAs are connected to each other to form a polypeptide.
Some antibiotics work by keeping translation from happening.
Prokaryotic ribosomes are different from eukaryotic ribosomes.
So antibiotics can kill bacteria without hurting the eukaryotic host.
For example, antibiotics taken by a human might kill the bacteria that is making the human sick but wouldn't hurt the human.

Gene expression is how the heritable information in a gene (the sequence of DNA base pairs) is made into a functional product such as a protein or RNA.
Several steps in gene expression may be modulated (tuned).
These changes may remain through cell divisions for the remainder of the individual's life, and may also last for more than one generation.
Instead, non-genetic factors cause the organism's genes to behave (express themselves) differently.
The best example of epigenetic changes in eukaryote biology is the process of cellular differentiation.
During morphogenesis, totipotent stem cells become the various cell lines of the embryo, which in turn become fully differentiated cells.
In other words, a single fertilized egg cell – the zygote – divides and develops.
The daughter cells change into the many cell types of the mature embryo.
These include neurones, muscle cells, epithelium, blood vessels and so on.
This happens by activating some genes while inhibiting others.
Epigenetic changes are long-term, and usually survive the process of cell division (mitosis).
Changes occur in the chromatin, which is a combination of the DNA and its surrounding histone proteins in the chromosome.
The details of how this happens are still being worked out, but it is fairly certain that the wrapping of the DNA and histone is a key feature.
Gene regulation
Up-regulation and down-regulation
Up-regulation increases the expression of one or more genes and as a result the protein(s) encoded by those genes.
Down-regulation is a process resulting in decreased gene and protein expression.
Induction vs repression
Inducible systems: an inducible system is off unless there is the presence of some molecule (called an inducer) that allows for gene expression.
Repressible systems: a repressible system is on except in the presence of some molecule (called a corepressor) that suppresses gene activity.
The molecule is said to repress expression.
The following are two important examples
Micro RNAs (miRNA) act by joining an enzyme and blocking mRNA (messenger RNA), or speeding its breakdown.
Imprinting (genetics)
Curtis is the third album by rapper 50 Cent.
The album was released on September 11, 2007.
The album features production from Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Timbaland, among others.
Guest appearances include Akon, Justin Timberlake, Nicole Scherzinger, and other notable musicians.
50 Cent divides between "hard" songs and "soft" songs on the album.
Curtis was released and sold 691,000 copies in its first week on the Billboard 200.
It sold the most copies in one week for an East Coast album since Jay-Z's Kingdom Come sold 680,000 copies sold.
The album's sales competition with Kanye West's Graduation was considered to be a "great day for hip hop".
The Šarplaninac (pronounced shar-pla-NEE-natz) (also known as Sharplaninec) is a large-sized shepherd dog breed of the Balkan region, from the Šar mountains (Šar Planina in Serbian and Macedonian or Bjeshket e Sharrit in Albanian).
El Limón (in English, The Lemon) is a Municipal district of Santa Bárbara de Samaná, Samaná province, Dominican Republic.
It is on the north coast of the Samaná Peninsula, on the Atlantic coast.
In the last national census (2010), the district had a total population of 7,024: 3,622 men and 3,402 women.
The urban population was 66.23% of the total population.
Tourism, above all nature tourism, is important here because many tourists visit El Limón Waterfall.
