It has been long observed that people for some reason on their non-banking days readily absorb shite about Dangerous Places, Famous People, Sensible Saving Options, Holidays, Interesting facts, Sport results, Media, gardening and health as well looking ahead at “upcoming issues”. Today is august, 8th month 2005. It is also Tisha B’Av or the 9th of Av, year of Moses 5765. It is also the 9th day of Rajab, 1426 since the Hegira. Today is historic because it sees the deadline for unilateral withdrawl from the Gaza strip of some 8000 plus living Israeli citizens and many of their dead. Today may also be historic as under extreme pressure from the USA the Iraqi government are supposed to present a draft constitution. read full story / add a comment

Today, close to two-and-a-half thousand Shell to Sea protesters marched from the Spanish Arch through the streets of Galway and back again to express their outrage against the continued imprisonment of the Rossport Five and the depredations of the Shell led consortium in Erris. In a fiery speech, the President of the Labour Party and local TD, Michael D. Higgins lambasted the cosy relationships of past and present governments' with the oil industry, visiting particular contempt on Burke's 1987 back room deal and Ahern's, 1992, selling of our family silver, as it were, for a mess of pottage when he was Minister of Finance. read full story / add a comment

Many of us being Irish will remember the green ribbons which were distributed by Saoirse for Irish political prisoner support during the British / Irish conflict / bother / trouble things in the early 1990s. Since then green ribbons have been distributed globally by groups calling for support of organ donation issues, recovery of missing children, adoption issues, energy conservation, ending child abuse, christian free speech, *and since yesterday in the UK at the behest of Nottingham Police chief constable Steve Green, in suport of British Muslims. read full story / add a comment

On a rota system, back to our usual pitch outside Lynch's castle, some twenty Shell to Sea activists from noon to 6PM manned an info/petition table to publicise tomorrow's National demo for the Five which will be starting and finishing at the Spanish Arch, again, the response was heartening, for instance, on a rough calculation, we reckon we got 2,500 petition signatures yesterday and today and judging from the feedback, the demo numbers are looking good, very good. TOMORROW MORNING, ANOTHER RAKE OF US WILL BE OUTSIDE LYNCH'S CASTLE FROM 10 AM TO 2PM EXHORTING THE PUBLIC TO DEMONSTRATE. PLEASE JOIN US FOR BOTH ! read full story / add a comment

the Swift Tuttle comet's debris annually colides with the planet Earth in mid August giving us all shooting stars which are called the Perseids. You may approach this simple cosmic fact with awe and superstition, gasping and pointing and mkaing little wishes for world peace or higher wages or you may choose to be scientific about it and simply record time, brightness and suspected location of the drop. Its up to you. The last time the comet itself was visible was in 1992, someday that comet will collide with us but not yet. read full story / add a comment

For six hours today, Shell to Sea - their ranks swelled with activists from Amnesty International, SWP, Green Party, SP and Global Women's Strike, the latter in the formidable/venerable form of Margaretta D'Arcy - mounted a protest/petition/info table on William Street and that over, joined the 90 minute SWP organised picket/blockade of the Newcastle Statoil Service Station and we closed the fucker down - at least until the arrival of some amiable Gardai. With Saturday's National Rossport Five demo spurring us on, a six hour stint is planned for William Street tomorrow and a further four hours on Saturday morning.
