Time is very special, and no-one really knows who owns it. One thing is clear - we don't. But over the millenia we have seen the state or church whichever was more powerful at that particular time meddle with both calenders and hours.

On the 31st of December 2005, an extra second will be added to the world's clocks meaning the year will last 31536001 seconds rather than the usual 3156000. read full story / add a comment

In a few days mostly un-noticed by most, EU presidential power will go from the UK to another member of the 25 states, the lucky recipient is Austria.

Austria has quite a history, it used have an empire. & in the last years almost all of its ex-posessions have joined the Europe of 25.

It is also a neutral state, its neutrality being a condition of its post war occupation and partition when rather than being held responsible for WW2 it was declared the first victim of Nazism. Despite the fact that Hitler was an austrian and the majority of Concentration camp directors were austrian too. read full story / add a comment

At Shannon District Court (held in Ennis), Judge Mangan yesterday held the Constitution and the Rights of Citizens in utter contempt when he shat upon, and then pissed all over, both.

At the last hearing of this case, on 8th Dec 2005, Mr. Cregan was dragged out of court by Gardai on the orders of Judge Mangan - see link - http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=73376 read full story / add a comment

There were lots of elections in 2005, only a few of which got covered on indymedia ireland. But because the idea of democracy really took off so much, I wasn't able to write a "how did they vote or "not vote"" article as had in previous years been attempted.

Just a quick recap - listed here.
{My personal favourite was the Andorran general election.}

Following a brief period of burn-out after Mayday 2004 Anarchism enjoyed a huge resurgence in activity in 2005. With the founding of a radical book store in Temple bar, the massive libertarian mobilisation to Scotland and the formation of new libertarian organisations like GrassrootsDissent, Anarchist Youth, Revolt Video and Seomra Spraoi things have never looked so good around Dublin. read full story / add a comment

The economic boom in Ireland and the construction boom that has come alongside it has led to a growth in the importance of environmental campaigns. There has frequently been a large gap between the environmentalists involved in such campaigns and the left - including anarchists. Sean, one of the 'Carrickminders' and now a member of the WSM gives his view on what can be learnt from the recent struggles. read full story / add a comment

Having worked in a Bodyshop in Dublin for almost 5 weeks during the year, I was disgusted and appalled at how they treat their staff and mislead the public into thinking that they are environmentally friendly, their products not tested on animals and are for fair trade. Working there was a real eye-opener. read full story / add a comment

Christmas will soon be upon us, the batteries will wear out, conversation will stimie, the turkey will curl and your spirits with it. Thus no more timely ocassion to remind everyone of the great and noble tradition of Irish Parlour Games.

There are many which will brighten your yuletide, and i've thoughtfully made a small selection which will challenge all ages and levels of intelligence.

There's surely an irish Parlour Game to suit you and yours on this little "human interest" list.
