Democracy Now is reporting that : "In his latest article in the New Yorker magazine, http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2007/10/08/071008fa_...=true investigative journalist Seymour Hersh reports there has been a significant increase in the tempo of planning for war with Iran inside the Bush administration.

Hersh also reports the Bush administration's rationale for bombing Iran has shifted from Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program to Iran's role in Iraq". read full story / add a comment

Catalan independence news these days seems to be focussed on a prison sentance passed on a protester who burnt a photo of the King of Spain last September 13th whilst Juan Carlos Bourbo y Bourbo was in Girona to open the science park there. A crowd of protesters had attended the event as part of the wider "300 years" movement which aims to raise independence hopes on the anniversaries of the beginning and end of the war of Bourbon succession between 1707 and the 11th of September 1714. That of course was the war which saw the European alliance supporting the Catalans (& British by they way) lose to the Bourbon dynasty (& the Basques by the way) which still holds the crown today. & that was when they lost their powers to raise tax & sundry other privelages.

Yesterday a bomb was difused in the headquarters of the Catalan Green party ICV-EUA which is a sister party of the Spanish state's IU or reformed marxists (who are linked to the SWP by the way)

Update to the open letter published on indymedia on the 20th of September 2007. Same sorry old story. No responsibility taken by the authorities who are preventing me from having my car in a public place, or driving any vehicle, due to their on-going vendetta. I am hopeful that the minister will take my complaint seriously and deal with it appropriately. Otherwise, its more hardship without any answers. read full story / add a comment

Award-winning Danish theatre company The Telling Theatre will perform their adaptation of Beowulf, at the Players Theatre at 8 pm on 20 October 2007. The show will be followed by a discussion with the performers.

With this production, the Narrative Arts Club would like to invite Irish performers and listeners to new ways of thinking about storytelling, in accordance with the club's motto: "Forget what storytelling was, and find out what it might be."

The "storytelling theatre" concept offers an exciting opportunity for the much-neglected art of storytelling to compete with the other urban arts, such as the conventional theatre, stand-up comedy and the cinema, for the attentions of savvy young urbanites at prime city-centre venues. read full story / add a comment
