This is 200 students, a lake, a generator,a bonfire, cd-decks,speakers, dutch gold, buckfast, rubbish bags, trees, bushes, flowers and lots and lots and lots of fun. Coming together at the exhortation of Craic Soc, the last day of the academic year was celebrated by the students of UCD in the most open way possible. For hours we trickled behind the Vet building, to a place fondly called 'Lake2', or Tir na nOg for those that discovered it first. ... read full story / add a comment

In a column entitled “Senator Frist in a fluster over Democrats filibuster” in The Irish Times (conservative/liberal Irish newspaper of record) today, the paper’s US correspondent Conor O’Clery addresses the renewed fuss brewing in the US about allegations of fraud in the presidential elections of last November.

However, there are signs that O'Clery is still somewhat sceptical.

A list of supplementary articles has now been sent to O’Clery and a long list of other Irish journalists, politicians and campaign organisations. Some of these articles come from traditional mainstream media, including CNN, Reuters, North County Times, The Tennessean and Baltimore Sun. ... read full story / add a comment

Dear friends,

Below are details of a march to be held in Athlone this week in which I am to speak on behalf of the Anti Racism Network of Northern Ireland - lending full active support to this campaign

Once again we see the Thatcherite agenda of the Minister of Justice. I would urge all organisations that have supporters in the South to promote the march, the issue, and to attend.

There will also be other activist networks such as those involved in Street Seen who will be travelling down to lend active support.

If people want to go down drop me a line as we will be leaving for Dublin on Friday evening ... read full story / add a comment

Episode IV: A New Pope
Text against a background of Stars:
A Short Time Ago, In a Galaxy not very far away

Opening Crawl:
It was a dark time for the Galaxy
The scattered and divided remnants
of the fourth workers republic were being
Satirised by the dark forces of Windymedia.
Meanwhile the population of the galaxy were held
In thrall by a mysterious force called Darth Papious
Who even from beyond the grave could muster great forces
To the cause of telling big whopping fibs about his eventful life. ... read full story / add a comment

Only by acknowledging these crimes - crimes that the Pope did admit to some degree in his trip to Mexico, can the church reclaim its mission and that of Christ for a preferential option for the poor. If the church does not move immediately to recognize Oscar Romero as a saint and the true leader of the church then all Catholics, and all people should boycott and attack this decrepit and evil institution." ... read full story / add a comment
