Ní Mháille was married in 1546 to Dónal an Chogaidh Ó Flaithbheartaigh ( Donal of the Battle ), tánaiste or heir to the Ó Flaithbheartaigh ( O ' Flaherty ) title, which would have been a good political match for the daughter of the O ' Mháille chieftain.

As O ' Flaherty tánaiste, Dónal an Chogaidh one day expected to rule Iar Connacht, the area roughly equivalent to modern Conamara.

After Dónal's death, Gráinne left Iar-Connacht and returned to O ' Mháille territory, taking with her many O ' Flaherty followers who were loyal to her.

Bunowen Castle, where she lived with her first husband, Dónal an-Chogaidh O ' Flaherty, was situated on the most western point in Connacht, and was apparently the first base for her shipping and trade activities.

By the time of Donal's death in the early 1560s, she commanded the loyalty of so many O ' Flaherty men that many of them left the area when she did, and followed her to Clare Island in Clew Bay, where she moved her headquarters.

Dónal an-Chogaidh O ' Flaherty had taken a fortress in the Lough Corrib from the Joyce clan.

Around the time of her first husband's death came the initial complaints to the English Council in Dublin from Galway's city leaders that O ' Flaherty and Ní Mháille ships were behaving like pirates.

Once they obtained their toll, the O ' Flaherty ships would disappear into one of the many bays in the area.

By the early 1560s, Ní Mháille had left O ' Flaherty territory and returned to her father's holdings on Clare Island.

Finally, in 1593, when her sons, Tibbot Burke and Murrough O ' Flaherty, and her half-brother, Donal-na-Piopa, were taken captive by the English governor of Connacht, Sir Richard Bingham, Ní Mháille sailed to England to petition Elizabeth I for their release.

If the pencil with the angle u2 is that of the maximum aberration of all the pencils transmitted, then in a plane perpendicular to the axis at O ' 1 there is a circular disk of confusion of radius O ' 1R, and in a parallel plane at O ' 2 another one of radius O ' 2R2 ; between these two is situated the disk of least confusion.

If the object point O is infinitely distant, u1 and u2 are to be replaced by h1 and h2, the perpendicular heights of incidence ; the sine condition then becomes sin u ' 1 / h1 = sin u ' 2 / h2.

The H — OH or H < sub > 2 </ sub > O is then released as a molecule of water, hence the term dehydration.

The popular view can be summarized in an essay published in 1965, the then Captain Robert O ’ Neill, Professor of the History of War at the Oxford University.

It is heated to form quicklime ( CaO ), which is then added to water ( H < sub > 2 </ sub > O ).

The intermediate reaction states were: HO < sub > 2 </ sub >, H < sub > 2 </ sub > O < sub > 2 </ sub >, then H < sub > 3 </ sub > O < sub > 2 </ sub > and the final reaction product ( water molecule dimers ), after which the water molecule desorbs from the catalyst surface.

" O my Lord, best of the givers of benediction, if You at all want to bestow a desirable benediction upon me, then I pray from Your Lordship that within the core of my heart there be no material desires.

An orientation chooses which of the two half-lines determined by O is the positive, and which is negative ; we then say that the line " is oriented " ( or " points ") from the negative half towards the positive half.

It is often labeled O and if so then the axes are called Ox and Oy.

If a diatomic molecule consists of two atoms of the same element, such as H < sub > 2 </ sub > and O < sub > 2 </ sub >, then it is said to be homonuclear, but otherwise it is heteronuclear.

Done naively, this will take O ( n ) time: we search through all the triangles to find the one that contains v, then we potentially flip away every triangle.

Over all vertices, then, this takes O ( n log n ) time.

Kaye starred in several movies with actress Virginia Mayo in the 1940s, and is well known for his roles in films such as The Secret Life of Walter Mitty ( 1947 ), The Inspector General ( 1949 ), On the Riviera ( 1951 ) co-starring Gene Tierney, Knock on Wood ( 1954 ), White Christmas ( 1954, in a role originally intended for Fred Astaire, then Donald O ' Connor ), The Court Jester ( 1956 ), and Merry Andrew ( 1958 ).
