I1m not sure if anybody was actually tasked with producing a public report of the 22 April anti-war gathering in Dublin, so I hope there are no objections if I give my own personal reflections on the event. read full story / add a comment

Staff not paid because of bank error SEVENTY workers at the National Aquatic Centre weren't paid their wages because of a bank error. Money due to be paid to the employees by the operators of the centre, Dublin Waterworld Ltd, failed to appear in their accounts yesterday. Angry workers contacted management who told them the problem would be sorted immediately. AIB Bank has said that the missed payments were due to a "technical error". The wages were due to be paid into the workers' accounts last night. read full story / add a comment

Bush has responded to the recent bombings in Egypt with a finger pounding demonstration of determined imbecility; he once again identifies “the enemy” (as singular) implying a centralised terrorist group. If the USA had any credible intelligence they would know that the ‘enemy’ is in fact many separate and spontaneously occurring cells rather than a fixed hierarchical centralised group. Misinformation could be another reason the USA is failing in Iraq! US troops are unable to locate the “enemy” to which Bush and his administration continually refers – we should not forget that Rumsfeld briefs Bush on these matters. read full story / add a comment

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

On Tuesday, May 2nd, at 8:30 pm, Kavanagh's pub in Portlaoise will hold what is believed to be the town's first night of a live performance of poetry; what makes this night unique is that all poems being performed are unpublished and have not been read to an audience before. read full story / add a comment
