Existence in a post-modern world, or living in a world where text/image (signs) have imploded and offer no inherent meaning outside a consciousness that animates/endows signs which in turn deliver meaning/endowment back to the same consciousness that so desperately needs to invest in meaning! In other words, ‘reality’ is up for grabs; creating your own reality in a world of competing ‘realities’ has become the principal pursuit of modern humanity. read full story / add a comment

An hilarious attempt was made to knock over the 60ft spy pole in the cabbage patch park off Kevin St. tonight. The pole with its two spy cameras and satellite communication disc was erected about two weeks ago to the outrage of local residents (it's there to deal with anti-social behaviour apparently, and to what cost?). read full story / add a comment

"The welcome and generosity of these men was fantastic, I was put at my ease, made to feel safe, I was now among friends. The regime is hard on the Republican Wing in Maghabery, you alternate between 22 and 20 hour lock ups, on a good day you will get 2 hours exercise in the morning and the evening, on a bad day you will get 2 hours exercise in the afternoon only. You are secured in the rec room with access to the cage at these times; this is the only time that you are allowed anything close to free association. There are for all intensive purposes no opportunities for education, and like wise for craft work. You are allowed some cell association on some days; this is where any thing up to three prisoners are locked in one cell for a couple of hours to converse. I availed of these when I could, in order to keep relatively sane" read full story / add a comment

All reports and profiles of Al-Zarqawi do not place him in the criminal genius category. Murdering thug and street crim maybe, but to evade the limitless resources of western agencies for two long years is out of the question unless of course the situation was managed to keep a population distracted, fearful, and compliant while precious resources were plundered and illegal invasions justified. read full story / add a comment

The National Centre for Youth Mental Health, in association with the School of Psychology University College Dublin Presents: Public Forum: Time to Act on Youth Mental Health On Tuesday 20th June 2006 at 7.30 pm, Theatre L, Newman Building, University College Dublin??Why? Mental health issues are the number one health concern of adolescents and young adults. The earlier help is given, the better the outcome. There are proven models that produce excellent outcomes for this age group. Yet, young people in Ireland with mental health problems rarely get timely, appropriate and effective help. It is time to act. read full story / add a comment

"To subvert the tyranny of our execrable government, to break the connection with England, the never-failing source of all our political evils and to assert the independence of my country- these were my objectives. To unite the whole people of Ireland, to abolish the memory of all past dissensions, and to substitute the common name of Irishman in place of the denominations of Protestant, Catholic and Dissenter - these were my means." -Theobald Wolfe Tone . read full story / add a comment

"Your tenure has also seen the collapse of the community and the breaking of extended family links wrought by the runaway property boom. But sure we are all making a few quid out of it, so we don’t see our family as much as we like and we are all disconnected from our communities to the extent that some of us don’t know who lives next door to us" read full story / add a comment

Director Ken Loach spoke to Tom Behan about his award winning new film The Wind That Shakes The Barley, which is about Ireland’s fight for freedom Even though Ken Loach’s new film The Wind That Shakes The Barley hasn’t yet opened in cinemas, it has already won a high profile award and created controversy. Ken Loach is on a high after winning the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Some elements of the British media have insinuated it was just a fluke, or that he won as a kind of “lifetime achievement award”. from latest issue of Socialist Worker www.socialistworker.org.uk Link to original read full story / add a comment |
