which monitors dentists has now found 108 of those charges proven

and dismissed 53. The professor was criticised by the panel for his

treatment in a number of cases. In one, he failed to spot the changes

in a patient who for years had had a dry and itchy mouth condition that

announced a fresh round of talks involving the British and arid

:05:46.:05:47.

governments and the five executive parties. In order to get those talks

:05:48.:05:52.

off to a good start, Sinn Fein says UK Government should freeze nearly

parties other than the executive parties. Given the failure of the

:07:28.:07:35.

:08:13.:08:19.

We had some rain in the forecast but probably not a lot of rain and daily

threat of good part of the week, we are still seeing some decent dry

:08:27.:08:33.

spell. Later in the week, signs of a change. It looks as if we will see

:08:34.:08:38.

our first proper wet and windy spell in quite some time. But too much of

:08:39.:08:41.

a breeze tonight and apart from the odd shower, it is mainly dry.

:08:42.:08:45.

Increasing amounts of cloud and that means it is fairly mild. You can see

the rain gathering out to the West, this is a weather front that is

Ireland, if you are in the east, we might well find the rain takes some

time to clear away. Drier and brighter conditions will be

following from the West and highs of 18 and 19 degrees. Some rain

:09:41.:09:44.
