Professor Peter Mitchell of the UCD school of physics , provided
today a completetly risible excuse for the media -led campaign on
nuclear energy in this country. The campaign has been trundling on
at least since Feburary 16th of this year, though it gathered momentum on
June 1st with the press release from the Oireachtas Committee on
natural resources that the nuclear option is one that we should be examining.
According to Mitchell nuclear power generation in Ireland could
provide an answer to our offence at and opposition to war.

The Australia media has exploded with stories of sexual abuse in remote aboriginal communities. This article deals with the question of why now. This is not to deny the abuse - friends who work in these communities confirm the abuse - it's a matter of why the sudden interest by the media.

How apparent was it in in the Dail?

A constitutional referendum on the recently debated (use the term advisedly)
Criminal law (sexual offences) Bill 2006, has produced more controversy
in Dail Eireann today.
Mr Ahern has stated that there may (after an all-party committee) hearing on all
aspects of the law , including the constitutional implications,
which may lead to a referendum to drop the 'honest mistake'
defence and a referendum would ensure that in effect we would be returned to the 1935 act. read full story / add a comment
