Why are climate alarmists so impervious to facts, so averse to rational cost-benefit analysis? It has all the hallmarks of a religious cult, says James Allan. They can't let it go because it gives meaning to their lives.

international / gender and sexuality / press release Friday September 24, 2010 13:41 by Farshad Hoseini
For Immediate Publication.

This is the second year that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s presence at the UN is causing a storm of international protests. Last year, it was primarily due to Neda Agha-Soltan’s murder in broad daylight at a Tehran protest and this year it is the Iran stoning case of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani.

Last year, under public pressure, Ahmadinejad outrageously declared that Neda had been killed by protestors rather than the regime’s own security forces. This year, he has outrageously announced that Sakineh was never sentenced to death by stoning. The reason for his absurd claim is not that there is any truth in it but because of the massive international protest movement against stoning and executions in Iran led by the International Committee against Stoning and the International Committee against Execution. read full story / add a comment

dublin / arts and media / event notice Friday September 24, 2010 11:53 by Film Qlub
A big brooding drama about an older artist who is in love with a young model. The rarely seen Michael is about inspiration, about love and lust, about getting old, about friends who become lovers and lovers who become friends... To put it in two brush-strokes: this is a film about artists, and a proudly arty film.

Enormous instability remains the key feature of the political and economic situation in Ireland.

The 1%

We have all heard of the ‘golden circle’. We all know that there is one law for the rich and another law for the rest of us. But did you know that just 1% of the population are estimated to own at least 34% of the wealth of the country? Property developers, landlords, bankers, barristers, media tycoons and politician are amongst the 1% that own so much, but contribute so little
