D Tuesday, September 22, 2009 METRO Butler. . . youre firedBY joanne ahernTEAM C Chulainn were well and truly licked on their first outing of the new series of The Apprentice, which began on TV3 last night. Reminiscent of boss Bill Cullens early days as a fruit seller in Dublins inner city, last nights task took the band of 14 wan- nabe apprentices on to the streets of Dublin to try to sell as much HB ice-cream as pos- sible. Choosing the southside of the city as their base, Team Platinum, under the direction of leader Ruth ODowd, aced the task, leaving the boys to face a chilly reception from Bill and his aides Jackie Lavin and Brian Pur- cell in the boardroom. Taking on the mantle of team leader, 25- year-old Craig Butler had his hands full from the get-go. The Kildare man, whose day job is as a business developer for a mul- tinational food company, failed to manage his team with too much time being wasted arguing rather than hitting the streets. Although they managed to sell all their stock, it wasnt enough for the boys to beat the girls nor to save Craigs skin and he soon heard Bill uttering the immortal words: Youre fired. out: Craig Butler A JUDGE has ordered a 19-year-old Hawaiian man who admitted starting a restaurant fire with a flicked cigarette to stop smoking for a year. Makaio Bachman-Majamay pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of third- degree criminal damage for the 2008 fire. Judge Joel August ordered him to do community service, pay a fine and told the teenager not to smoke for a year. Perhaps it will add about ten years to his life, Judge August said. Teen told: Give up cigarettes Court: Mr rossiter Quadriplegic who refused care dies A qUADRiPLEGiC who won a court case that allowed him to starve himself to death by refusing food and water from his nursing home has died. Christian Rossiter, 49, lost the use of his arms and legs in a 2004 road accident. Last month, the Supreme Court ruled that nursing home in Perth, Australia, which cared for him must respect Mr Rossiters decision to refuse to take food or water. Mr Rossiter died yesterday from a chest infection. In the dock: Tweed Tweed goes to court on rape charge JADE GOODYs widower, Jack Tweed, appeared in court yesterday charged with rape at his home in east London. The 22-year-old, who was married to reality TV star Goody just before she died from cancer, spoke only to confirm his name at the hearing at Snaresbrook Crown Court, London. The alleged offence took place early on September 4. Tweed, who is expected to deny the charge, was remanded in custody until November 16. index.html2.html3.html4.html5.html6.html7.html8.html9.html10.html11.html12.html13.html14.html15.html16.html17.html18.html19.html20.html21.html22.html23.html
