Wind down from your artificially induced stress/pace and confront your personal reality – take stock for a moment. Your existence has been confined to sustaining and maintaining a system that makes ever-increasing demands on your liberty and freedom – the pillars upon which joy and satisfaction are built/derived! The frenzied pace of western society is largely the result of the manic need for ever increasing profits and greater concentrations of wealth in the fewest possible hands, which inevitably places higher demands on those at the bottom of the financial scale. Obtaining wealth is simply a matter of applying unfair downward pressure in favour of upward flowing benefits; wealth is not created it is the result of manipulation and/or theft – the historical record bears this out. Put simply, profit is exploitation/theft! read full story / add a comment

Everybody but the most myopic neo-conservative agrees that the invasion of Iraq has been an utter catastrophy.
It seems inevitable that US troops will be withdrawn, if not in the lifetime of the Bush administration, then certainly in the lifetime of the next US administration either Democrat or Republican, when a realist will certainly occupy the White House with the mandate of a US public who have awoken from the hysteria after 9/11 which brought to them to war in the first place.

But only a fool would believe Iraq will be peaceful after the US withdraw. Indeed it seems obvious that Shia and Sunnis will slaughter with impunity once the ineffectual US referee is removed from the boxing ring.That is why the UN must send peacekeeping troops to the region to prevent this catastrophe from occuring. read full story / add a comment

In Rathmines, Harold's Cross and Crumlin we are to lose St Luke's Hospital.
In fact, the hospital scandal stretches further than that.
We are to lose a cancer hospital which will be amalgamated with St James,
the high property values allowed Minster Mc Dowell's Sidekick to sign the lands
to speculators.

There is a clinic in that hospital complex used by the parents of kids with CF and asthma
called Lukedoc/Dubdoc- one TD from the area put down the question re losing our clinic
published below is the reply from Mary Harney. read full story / add a comment

The market follows close behind. Two new courses on Green Building will help sort through the options of saving energy, reducing our carbon footprints, and plugging the leaks.

Low Carbon Life.

“low carbon” life will require changes in how we live. It will require a shift in public consciousness, as well as a willingness to do without conveniences that may now seem essential. Energy inefficiency and waste are so woven into the fabric of life that it is both very easy for some and very hard for others to change.
The business of climate change will create demand for innovation, and will change and reshape markets immediately. Investors will be asking questions to identify companies that will succeed or fail in an environment of increased climate change risk.
