Cuilcagh
Cuilcagh (Irish: Binn Chuilceach) is a mountain on the border between County Fermanagh (in Northern Ireland) and County Cavan (in the Republic of Ireland) (once part of the a medieval Kingdom of Breifne). With a height of 665 metres (2,182 ft) it is the highest point in both counties and the 165th highest on the island of Ireland. Water from the southern slope flows underground until it emerges some miles away in the Shannon Pot, the traditional source of the River Shannon.
Name and history
The name Cuilcagh comes from the Irish Cuilceach, which has been translated as "chalky". However, the mountain is mainly sandstone and shale, covered with bog and heather. "It is possible that the name refers to the limestone rock on the lower northern flanks. Here a number of streams disappear below ground at swallow holes named Cats Hole, Pollawaddy, Pollasumera and Polliniska, all forming part of the Marble Arch cave system. If so, the name would mean 'calcareous' rather than 'chalky'". It has also been called Slieve Cuilcagh in English, 'Slieve' being an anglicisation of Sliabh ("mountain").

Everything I Need In A Woman
by: Kelly KeagyThis is a story
As old as time
About losing love
And finding love again.
Givin’ up on everything
losing faith that tryin
Would bring me home,
Take me home once again.
Never stop believin’ in a
Power strong enough
To take me back
And make me feel
The magic of a touch.
You’re everything I need in a woman
You’re what made me believe in love again
You’re where I want to be with a woman
But it’s gonna take a real woman
To make me believe in love again
I wanna believe in love again.
Without even knowin’,
You can read my mind
You sang right through
The hardness of my heart.
Could it be that you’ve been through
Everything I’ve been through?
And now we’ve both found our way in the dark
I was always reachin’
But it was just beyond my touch
I had everything I wanted
But it was never quite enough
You’re everything I need in a woman
You’re what made me believe in love again
You’re where I want to be with a woman
But it’s gonna take a real woman
To make me believe in love again
I wanna believe in love again.
Now gone are the dark days that kept me from the night
Now I know the way my life’s supposed to be
When we’re apart you’re always in my heart
There’s a part of you that’s still a part of me
You’re everything I need in a woman
You’re what made me believe in love
You’re everything I need in a woman
You’re what made me believe in love
You’re everything that’s meant to be in a woman
You’re everything I need in a woman
But it’s gonna take a real woman
To make me believe in love again
