The year was 1993 or perhaps 1994, I lived in Zimbabwe and the past time that I most enjoyed was horse riding in the Veld near Sunset. On this occasion....I was being brave. I had learned to canter so it was time to jump. An arena, an enthusiasm, the taste of speed and miscalculation and there was change, I went over the horse and under the horse. Outcome: private emegency ambulance - a team who I will never know who most likely saved my life. There was only one elderly man as Neurosugeon in Zimbabwe at that time. From there life became a pilgrim path of exploration and many bumps and turns on the road. Welcome to Brain Awareness Week. Let us all take the opportunity to learn about the brain, about acquired brain injury, about diseases of the brain, about mental health implications, read full story / add a comment

Seachtain na Gaeilge atá ann arís, ach fós, níl ach scrídín Gaeilge le feiceáil ar www.indymedia.ie. Seo é a leannas, mo bhronntanas fágála tar éirí as an bhfoireann eagarthóireachta (an comharchumann féin mar dheá) ar ball. B'fhéidir go mbeidh daoine eile ábalta an t-am a thabhairt chun aistriúcháin eile a dhéanamh le haghaidh na leathnacha eile am éigin arís. read full story / add a comment

Is it a sign of modern Ireland? Is it an attempt to get down with Ireland's Yoof? Whatever it is, the rise in party political electronic campaigning/propaganda has, at the very least, a few funny moments as a reward for those with a penchant for punishing yourself by daring to have the images burned into your memories. The wonders of the Inter Web are now being utilised to in the name of the party political cause... read full story / add a comment

The innocence and wonder of children is something that sane and decent people strive to cherish and protect. The ubiquity of terms like "child abuse" in the media can lead us to almost become innured to the reality of these repellent crimes. Rational adults expect law agencies to have such crimes prioritised and investigations prosecuted with professional "zeal" for want of a better term. Alas what happens when a cloud of doubt is cast over those very agencies and professions whose remit is to protect the weak and the vulnerable ? read full story / add a comment

There is something politically odd about Bush’s tour of various Latin American countries. South American nations were ‘lost’ to the U.S. some time ago – the price paid for America’s fixation in the Middle East. Bush is loathed internationally but is particularly despised in Latin America. The Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez accurately called Bush a “political cadaver” and led 20,000 Argentinian supporters in the chant, “gringo go home”, during his counter-tour of the region. read full story / add a comment

Over the past three years under Mr Justice Morgan the one sided preliminary hearings have continued and preparations for the civil case have been ongoing with an input from the plaintiffs only. The sole evidence against Michael McKevitt is that of informer David Rupert. However, on this occasion his evidence is conditional on whether he is to face cross-examination or not. Mr Rupert received an assurance that as Mr McKevitt will have no legal representation he will not face a rigorous cross-examination and he will have a free run to give whatever evidence he wishes. The assurances given to Rupert may ring hollow and it is possible that the issue of legal aid will be resolved in McKevitt’s favour, no other conclusion could be reached in the interest of fairness. Under renewed circumstances, Mr Rupert may not be as enthusiastic to face cross-examination by McKevitt’s legal team. read full story / add a comment |
