Camphill Community, Ballytobin, near Callan in County Kilkenny, is a small rural community caring at present for 22 children and 12 adults, all with disabilities. It was established in 1979 as a therapeutic farm, to provide a home and school maily for children with exceptional needs, some with multiple disabilities and disturbances. This video was made during their recent Open Day and tries to give a feeling of what that day was like along with some history and a bit about the renewable energy and sustainable living projects that are going on out there. ... read full story / add a comment

This time "everyone" is going to do their best to avert apocalypse for the paycheck heads. As as you'd expect, facing a category 5 hurricane, they've ordered evacuation of one million people.
