The design of the new stage at 360 degrees, which will host performances by U2 on this tour.

I gathered from the network some logos of famous brands processed in order to represent the global economic crisis we are experiencing.

Until a few years ago I considered Ireland a sort of Toyland is not just for the sheer beauty of its landscapes, the warmth of its people and the magical atmosphere of its pubs, but also for the wonderful opportunities that the Irish labor market could offer. Today the scenario has changed considerably.

The Republic of Ireland have climbed the summits of the European ranking of decrease. For this reason it is the first EU country to officially declare a state of "recession" economy.

For almost twenty years our green Ireland was one of the most dynamic economies in the Old Continent, but the reversal suffered in recent years have won her a decidedly unenviable record. With a decline in GDP of 0.5% in the second quarter, in addition to a precendete negative quarter, the Republic of Ireland have climbed the summits of the European ranking of the decline of the euro becoming the first country to officially enter into recession.
The reverse of Dublin right now scares the main European economies, after quarters, and in some cases years, the minimum growth are likely to fall seriously in the dreaded "below zero" to "trend GDP".

Among the intended victims, the Financial Times has suggested, there would be a continental G3 consists of Germany, France and Italy.

To promote decisively the Irish recession is clearly a crisis of real estate and construction, the segment of the physical market on which more than any other weighs the credit crisis. Inflation (but it would be better to say "stagflation"), the difficulty of access to credit and falling demand are producing a sharp fall in what is traditionally a leading sector in the more advanced emerging economies.
Here are the details of a crisis. In 2007 there were 78 thousand new buildings made in Ireland, confirming an average growth of 7%. At the end of 2008, however, should not exceed 50 thousand share in 2009 while the number of new buildings will be around about 20 thousand units.

A blue sky in the morning we wake up from a restful sleep. We eat breakfast at the b & b including delicious pancakes drenched in maple syrup topped with bananas and strawberries. The beautiful day immediately puts us in a good mood and there we journeyed to the southwest.

I drive to Kenmare where we stop to stretch your legs. The center of Kenmare is terribly quaint and immerses the visitor in the lively and colorful atmosphere of the typical Irish villages. Every shop, pub or restaurant seems to be competing with others to get noticed and ultimately the effect is magically perfect a set of chromatic harmonies.

We continue the road that follows the coast south of Kerry Sneem and stop near a beach to visit indicated a hidden reason "White Sdrand". The white sandy beach overlooking the sea, embraced by a rugged and slippery rocks. The show is indescribable. There's just us and a couple of seagulls. The sun is warm and the wind slaps my face nicely. I feel really at peace with the world.

We resumed our journey and we decide to have lunch on the beach between Liss and Glanberg (on N70) where there is' a little place which overlooks the sea. A great fish & chips and a stroll on the beautiful beach. To my surprise I notice a couple of local customers who surf the internet with their laptops. I ran to get my car and within seconds they are networked to one of the most remote beaches in Ireland. For an instant contact with the computer takes me back to reality and reminds me of the commitment, work and Italy. Another sip of stout and memories fade away. It 'like crazy in this place you can really lose (in the figurative sense of the word) and phase out all contact with reality.

Continue along the road to Waterville as the sun and the blue sky as leave room for some rain clouds. We are getting ready to shower daily Irish.

Who loves the Irish, there was one or a hundred times, eventually came to terms with the idea of ​​tasferirsi, live and find work.

Here are some useful links from which to work their way through that choice, however, beyond enthusiasm raises a number of difficulties to overcome.

According to what I could perceive the areas where to find the best opportunities are still the Information Technology (IT) and finance.
