Ne Plus Ultra

where were you born? why are you poor?

For the reasons are local, the solutions are local, the strategies are made far far away, and the poor they are everywhere. Relatively writing.

Minister for Environment Martin Cullen was interviewed today for RTE's weekly news programe by Róisín Duffy who reported his plans to change regulations within the rental sector
28k - http://www.rte.ie/news/2003/0720/thisweek/thisweek5a.smil

Many of us will remember Deirdre De Burca was one of the first to lead a charge on Cullen's cutting of the housing allocation in Dec 2002.
http://www.wicklowgreens.org/press/developers.htm
she had earlier accused him of a "cop out".
http://www.wicklowgreens.org/press/cullencopout.htm

It was a phrase which resounded...
Mr Cullen has been attacked on everything from housing to environmental issues. Understandable he is the Minister of Ireland's environment. But he has a constitutional edge too... He is facing a legal action from county Mayo FG TD concerning something called "dual mandate".
http://www.rte.ie/news/2003/0603/dualmandate.html

Mr Cullen is not really the man to help either or housing or our environment. But I am drawn to him today not only because of the Róisín Duffy interview but because of the term "dual mandate".

It popped out yesterday in several places.

Italy uder the leadership of Burlosconi this week marked two years since Genoa, and the murder of Carlo Guiliani, a week that has seen Italy meet with Greek and Spanish ministers to discuss forthcoming plans for "tightening" Europe's borders.

July 16 a joint minsterial statement on immigration concerns and €U amplification from Greece and Italy.

July17 several hundred Roma travelers amongst the oldest nomadic ethnic communities of Europe were prevented in crossing the border to Greece.
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2003/07/274506.html

July19 in the northern Sardinian town of Alghero, the ministers of Spain and Italy meet and make a joint statement "we may not long continue to be responsible for the borders of the community as the borders of the community".
The town of Alghero within sight of Corsica is proud of it's connection to Catalan culture, street names are still in Catalan and till comparatively recently residents spoke Catalan or Sardo.

This last week after being adrift at Sea 23 days a boat of west african immigrants were landed in starved condition in this province of Sardinia.
They were landed at Lampedusa. In the group were counted 34 children apparantly of age 5-10 years and 25 women.
http://www.unionesarda.it/unione/2003/19-07-03/ITALIA/ITA01/index.html

This happens every week.
Italy-España-Malta-Greece-

Burlosconi will now go to Texas.
Where tomorrow he shall hold discussions with George Bush 2º on USA/Italy relations, trade, matters relating to G8, GM food and controlling the Mafia who send 184 people and 34 children to Sea without food and water at the cost of 4000€ a body.

I REPEAT:
BUSH AND BURLOSCONI will inform us how to control the MAFIA that put these victims to Sea.

Spain and Italy must not be allowed to facilitate the creation of a unitary €uropean civil guard as appears to be their intention in 2005-2007.

This will be discussed in Dublin 2004.
The borders of €urope are also the borders of Dublin, Wicklow, they are MR Cullen's borders, this next week, as Burlosconi joins with his master in Texas, no discussion shall be made of the cause of african poverty, only how to sell them GM food.
No discussion shall be made of the nuclear waste that threatens both Spain and Italy in the mediterranean sea.

We ought discuss these things, then, so @ least they are given words. Perhaps even words that work.

can go to:
http://www.sardu.net/

or italy.indymedia.org
which has a Sardegna section.

Sardinia is presently upset about Australian gold mining operations interests in digging out the gold from Sardinia that Phoenicians, greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Catalans and Sards themselves didn't manage to get out in the lst three thousand years. Sardinia also has concerns with migration many of those entering the €U do so by landing on Sardinian or Sicillian beaches.
Nuclear waste and the attitude of the US naval forces whose Atlantic fleet is based on the island also figure highly.

Corsica recently by a very small amrgin rejected Paris minister Sarkosy's plan for increased autonomy.

In Nice sixteen people were injured yesterday in a car bomb believed to have been detonated by supporters of the Corsican seperatist group Front de libération nationale corse (FLNC)

The last time anyone claimed responsiblity for murder in the name of the FLNC was 5th May 2002.

I'm taking time out from writing a new reality series for TV over in the States to visit home, and I thought I'd leave a little something with you, I had hoped to see it published in Ireland's Own in July, but the riots over in Thessalonika took precedence.

ne plus ultra = stralupun.

she was a sort of strulapun girl, when we went to the covent together back in oh, twas the late fifties, I had just had my first orgasm that summer with help of my uncles teething calf out behind the sheds in north county Kilkenny. It was an experience I can tell you I would never forget, and years after over in London once I gone to work and grown up a bit, I used to find myself searching phone boxes night after night for that little card that would offer me the "special relief". I'm not ashamed to say that I found a new life, new friends and even a new indentity and sure there were no needs for the suckling calves over in Kilburn. I hope that similar young boys and lads in today's Kilkenny and further afield perhaps even in the midlands will heed my simple story of self-discovery and exploration.

What is an orgasm mammy?

author by the not so angry now "mr finnerty".publication date Tue Jul 22, 2003 15:50author address author phone Report this post to the editors

An Orgasm is when the Holy Spirit works through a man's temple of the divine, and sends tinglings sensations throughout his body cuasing the seed to be sent to the world. Now this is not always how it occurs... If the tingling sensations were caused by another man, or by the man himself alone, we can not ascribe the intervention of the Holy Spirit, we would look at that as being in breach of the 6º. And I suppose we ought to treat brefly upon the "woman's orgasm", now some of the readers might believe in such a thing, but ask yourself, if God Almighty and the Holy Spirit in all their wisdom had wanted things to be just right, would they have faclitated women with orgasmic potential? Exactly.
And just before you come back I'll anticipate the next questions.
Q. does golf help your orgasm?
A. oh Yes. a good round of golf in a men only course does wonders for your tingling.
Q. if a woman thinks she has had an orgasm is she in a state of sin?
A. well this is difficult, generally we would have to say yes, look at her eyes, lips and reddened chest, no state of grace nor splendour there.
Q. Where do the calves come into the orgasm?
A. oh, wherever the Holy Spirit does His work, you'll find the divil doing his.
