My vision for 2007 is we will revisit 'Who framed Roger Rabbit?'. You see Bertie the half Jack Russell and Kerry Blue (what a mix?) will get rid of the rabbit subtly with some deviance thrown in........According to today's paper's he is making overtures to Joe Costelloe. If the numbers add up in June there could be an FF/Labour coalition.......Now what about McDowell. Let' us get real here. Can you see a Poodle from Ranelagh squaring up to a half Jack Russell and Kerry Blue seasoned Northsider......I don't think so...... read full story / add a comment

Drest in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what he’s most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape,
Plays such fantastic tricks before heaven,
As make the angels weep …” - William Shakespeare.

U2 singer Bono is to be awarded an honorary British knighthood for "his services to the music industry and for his humanitarian work", the British embassy has announced.

Bono will receive the award from the British ambassador to Ireland, David Reddaway, in a ceremony in Dublin in the coming weeks. A spokesman for the singer said he was "very flattered" to receive the award, particularly if it opens doors for his campaigning work against poverty in Africa. read full story / add a comment

A play featuring the writings of the late American peace activist Rachel Corrie: “My Name is Rachel Corrie” has been cancelled at a Canadian Theatre in what can only be described as contemptible self censorship. The Canadian theatre company CanStage has done a three monkeys and pulled down the Iron Curtain of censorship down on it by announcing its cancelling plans to present the play in Toronto : Can stage, won't stage, exit stage. read full story / add a comment

A Good news cover: episode 10: Adoption
dublin / arts and media / other press Tuesday December 26, 2006 11:36 by François Beaune   image 5 images
The Good news or how to aprehend corporate media’s distorsions and lies

“Reading tabloids at work put me in such a state of distress I had to do something about it. So I took my scissors, rearranged the images and rewrote the issues so at least I could get a laugh out of them.” That’s how Jacques Dauphin decided to turn corporate media’s brain-washing newspapers into ridicule.
Tabloids are part of english and irish life, a complement and justification to the millions of CCTVs now hanging at every street corner. Fearful tragedies fuelled with drugs and poverty seem complementary with a fascination for the rich, powerful and famous.
In a humorous way, Jacques Dauphin denounces the state of alienation tabloid readers are kept in by pushing irrelevance and unprecedented rumors even further than tabloids dare to.

Rather than head off to their respective homes for the Xmas break, a group of out of town activists based in Galway procrastinated the sweet inevitable for a day in order to bear witness to suffering Palestine.

An information table was manned outside Lynch's castle,Shop st, where flyers on Israel's Apartheid Wall were handed out to passing pedestrians. The peak experience of the day was Khaled from Palestine,chancing upon us and visiting serious heartening appreciation on our efforts after joining us for the remainder of our five hour stint. read full story / add a comment

With Richard away in Cratloe, Shane in Dunshaughlin, Tanya in, etc, etc ,for the duration of the Xmas period, Galway Shell to Sea could only muster two of its activists to do picket duty outside the Shell Westside Service Station this afternoon, nevertheless, there was no appreciable lack of feedback from the passing motorists and pedestrians with one woman marooned in the gridlocked traffic beckoning us over for a chat regarding Shell - its wings severely clipped yesterday by Putin and Gazprom in regards to the Sakhalin 2 project. read full story / add a comment
