I don't know how the other people in the communities there must be coping - the fact that he was taken in broad daylight with the apparent overt complicity of the police, has left everyone very shocked. and I guess the accompaniers who were with him will be forever wondering what they could have done differently to try and stop this terrible thing from happening. and I just keep thinking about how this can happen here, like it was ordinary, like it was normal. i didn't know orlando, but i met him last week when he was filling in the forms for his visa. I just keep thinking of that big smiling man sitting in the corner of the office, his sunglasses pushed down his nose, chatting about his trip, wishing him a safe journey. and now when i pass by the office all i see is a photocopied sheet with his photo, and the word 'desaparecido'. ... read full story / add a comment

‘Children can bring out the best and worst in adults’ says Ann Healey, a Playtherapist who lives in Courtmacsherry, Co Cork. ‘Depending on how we listen and respond to them, their interaction with us will be affected. I read a book many years ago called ‘Dibs in Search of Self’ by Virginia Axiline and it changed my whole approach to working with children. It caused me to realise that verbally instructing children is not an effective way of relating to them - especially children with learning disabilities.” ... read full story / add a comment

The father of a Danish soldier recently killed in Iraq has joined a well-organised legal campaign to prosecute Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen for leading Denmark to participate in the invasion of March 2003. This development is of vital significance to the campaign, because the father of the dead soldier has an incontrovertible ‘legal interest’ in Denmark’s participation in the invasion. After all, he has lost his son as a consequence. Some legal experts had previously predicted that the constitutional case instituted on Tuesday would be dismissed for lack of such legal interest. ... read full story / add a comment |
