Why does my waterford crystal say made in Italy?
Waterford Crystal is brand name, originally it was all made in Waterford. Now though it is very expensive to make high quality glass in a country such as Ireland. It is far cheaper to make in China etc.
Waterford Crystal is a brand name not a promise.
What problems still exist in Northern Ireland today?
That is a complex question to answer. You would need to be very familiar with Irish history and the past situations to have a full understanding. Things are much improved, but there is still mistrust between some parts of society. Some of this is endemic and almost part of the culture in itself. People are in effect brought up not to trust the other side, rather than taking people on their merits. This is not true in all cases and there are many positive relations between the different sides of the community. Levels of violence are far less now, but there are people still there intent on causing trouble, but they have very little support. So things are radically better now than they have been for many years, and things are continuing to improve. Issues that are still of contention include things like marches, recognition of the heroes of one side, that are not seen as heroes by the other. There are still some areas of politics that need to be finalised, like policing and justice, though that should be resolved soon, as this answer is made on the 18th of October 2009.

Is Donegal in southern Ireland?
If you mean southern Ireland as a reference to the part of island of Ireland that is not Northern Ireland, then yes. The term "southern Ireland" is an incorrect and inaccurate reference to what is more commonly known as the Republic of Ireland. If you mean geographically, then the answer is no, as the most northerly point on the island of Ireland is Malin Head in county Donegal. County Donegal is in the Republic of Ireland, not Northern Ireland. See the map at the link below which shows the counties of the Republic of Ireland in green, and the counties of Northern Ireland in a tan colour. You will see that Donegal is in the Republic of Ireland, not Northern Ireland, and that it has the most northerly point on the island of Ireland.

What do you pack for a Gaeltacht?
Pack the obvious essentials, toothbrush, clothes bla bla (or, since your going to the Gaeltacht, scuab na fiacla, éadaÃbla bla)
Make sure to brush up on you Irish, take a good Irish phrase book, unless you know good conversational Irish, and make sure it's in the dialect of the Gaeltacht your visiting, because the differences can be huge. Try to speak as little Bearla(English) at a Gaeltacht as possible, it's not that the locals are arrogant, it's just that this is the last place were spoken Gaeilge can be heard, so let's keep it that way eh?
If you play, bring an instrument! The Gaeltacht is great for ceol! (music), if you play guitar, bodhrán, banjo, mandolin, whistle or whatever! Wether your professional or beginner, there's a lot you can learn from the musical tradition of the Gaeltacht.
Sports? Unless your into hurling or Gaelic football, your pretty much at a loss, although snámh (swimmings) useful if your up in Donegal (Dún na nGall), since a lot of your time will be probably spent on the beach (trá).
That's all the advice I can really give you, so adh mor ort! (good luck)
