Condi Rice dropped in to Shannon on Monday, seems like she is a regular down there. from today's Daily Ireland editorial "Another controversial visitor to these shores is George Bush’s secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, who we learn is constantly popping in and out of Ireland on her way to destabilise regions around the world at her master’s behest, like a commuter through Connolly Station. There is nothing illegal about Ms Rice’s movements through Ireland, but given her current role in the Bush war machine, and the fact that the US involvement in Iraq is deemed illegal under international law, her transitory visits, conducted as they are under virtual secrecy, are distasteful to say the least. They are also extremely discourteous to the Irish sovereign nation, which is officially neutral – a state of affairs which is being progressively eroded by the inaction and toadying of the current government to more militarily and economically powerful nations." read full story / add a comment

I come from a long line of savers, women and men who believed that a rubber band or piece of string or jar lid should not be thrown away as it will come in handy some day. The fact that being a saver meant full drawers and stuffed shelves didn’t dissuade us, nor the fact that because of the clutter we couldn’t find the thing we saved when we finally needed it. Saving is ingrained. In our case, saving is almost genetic. Recycling was an easy concept for us. “Waste not. Want not” Recycling is just a more communal variation on saving with the advantage of no clutter. read full story / add a comment
