The circus continues in relation to Bertie's cash lodgements and handouts - I will return to this in a minute.... But first I would like to point out the cutbacks in Sligo Hospital as reported today and as Drumm, the new God to Health said 'there are new limits now'. ... read full story / add a comment

Open letter to Minister John Gormley TD. The letter outlines how Limerick County Council's motor tax office have forced me off the road and are now failing to take responsibility for my plight. It is a complaint to the Minister, in the hopes that he may help to resolve the situation. I have not had an acknowledgement from the Minister's department yet in relation to my email. I have circulated my letter to a number of newspapers and it remains to be seen if they publish its contents. ... read full story / add a comment

This conference was organised by the Irish branch of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil to bring together people from government and the industry as well as some of those working to alleviate the problems. Unfortunately for a variety of reasons Cork Shell to Sea has so far been unable to gain entry but stimulated by the ideas presented on the ASPO website and our own experinces we put this leaflet together that we think raises points that anyone working in this area would do well to consider. This is the text, we plan to distribute this leaflet outside the conference later today and to write a further article in the next day or two. ... read full story / add a comment

Each year the average Italian eats 28kg of Pasta which is derived from wheat. This week Italians were urged to go on "pasta strike" to protest rising wheat costs which has seen their daily staple increase 20% in the last year. Elsewhere in Europe shoppers and eaters have found the price of bread rising in similar fashion. For their part farmers blame changing climatic conditions which increase voracious vermin (who doth eat the wheat) and stricter measures by governments to combat climate related problems (the hot sun doth prepare the land for fires thus seeing its chaff & voles burnt increases forest fires) and of course the war on Iraq (for increasing the cost of all oil including red diesel). All pretty convincing reasoning in a passing casual interest slice of toast sort of way. ... read full story / add a comment
