The myth of the five roads to Tara comes alive and is found to be the truth and a treasure is returned to the Celtic World. The centre of Tara is found in the triangle where these five roads meet. The attached image shows the five ancient roads to Tara in red. The line of red dots on the photograph shows where there used to be a road to the east coast. This road to the east coast is clearly shown on the 1830's map inset in the circle - the map has been turned to align with the photo - see http://www.druidschool.com/site/1030100/page/809109 read full story / add a comment

The film opens as a platoon of US Special Forces is dropped off by Chinook into the snowbound Tora Bora mountains in a sweep for Taliban and Al-Qaida fighters. Instead they come across the horribly mutilated corpses of the tribesmen and jihadists apparently torn to shreds by some kind of beast.
The platoon proceeds to a cave where they discover a vast network of tunnels which house an Al-Qaida HQ but again find evidence of a fierce struggle and blood splattered human remains. A survivor is found but he babbles nothing but verses from the Koran before leaping to his death over percipe.
Needless to say the platoon are themselves ripped apart in appallingly graphic attacks by a legion of Yetis. The dying Lieutenant calls in an airstrike and the sole surviving Yeti is captured and taken to Kabul.

Roll opening credits.

international / rights, freedoms and repression / press release Monday March 27, 2006 14:41 by pat c
Please read the story below, this is not a normal petition appeal. For a start it has more than a couple of lines of text, it tells a story. The Story of a brave Secular Kurdish author who has written a book which questions the status of women in islam and according to the text of the Quran. the book is entitled “Sex, Sharia and Women in the History of Islam".

The Kurdishish Islamofascists are now trying to bring about his death. You can a little thing to save him: read the plea below and sign the petition. This is a petition that WILL go to the Kurdish Government; the Organisation of Women’s Freedom in Iraq will ensure this.

Blair’s speech in Oz parliament today was notable for its familiarity – nothing new, same ol’ same ol’ shite. Wait! I think there was something that may have been a Freudian slip in reverse, Blair pleaded with a crumbling support base not to ostracise the yanks as they may “lift their drawbridge” (what a laugh). In order to survive, the voracious beast of Capitalism MUST feed off weaker nations, destroy the environment, wreak havoc and wage war to sustain its (military) economy. The world needs America like it needs a hole in the head; by all means Tony, let the yanks implode on themselves; allow the blood-sucking star-spangled-fangs to sink into its own neck; it would be a most entertaining spectacle. read full story / add a comment
