Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

For the last few years the European Patent Office (EPO) has, contrary to the letter and spirit of the existing law, granted more than 30000 patents on rules of organisation and calculation claimed in terms of general-purpose computing equipment, called "programs for computers" in the law of 1973 and "computer-implemented inventions" in EPO Newspeak since 2000. Europe's patent movement is pressing to legitimate this practise by writing a new law. read full story / add a comment

The acquisition by the Labour Party in Sligo of former Blueshirt, Jimmy McGarry, has sundered the party in the constituency. So fraught are things in the Sligo-North Leitrim constituency that party leader, Pat Rabbitte, was literally abandoned by former deputy and party standard-bearer in Sligo, Cllr Declan Bree, on a recent tour of the constituency. read full story / add a comment

The Amalgamated Transport and General Workers Union (ATGWU) have a motion down for next Tuesday night's Dublin Council of Trade Unions (DCTU) General Delegates Meeting calling on them to have their traditional May Day March, or to at least support the alternative May Day March organised by the Another Europe Is Possible (AEIP) mobilising by having their banner on the march and informing their members of it, in other words to reverse their outrageous decision to cancel their traditional annual May Day March. I think that it's really important to get as many sympathetic delegates as possible along on Tuesday night and that we should all speak out loudly and forcibly in favour of the ATGWU motion. I'm calling on anyone reading this who knows someone involved with the DCTU or Trade Unions generally to strongly encourage them to attend, and to participate in Tuesday night's meeting. read full story / add a comment
