Zimbabwean politicians are joining in the years' religious style weirdness, which has naturally followed on from the end of 2004 "renewed interest in the spirit" front covers of the global corporate media magazines with renewd interest in what the Roman Pontiff called "the message of baby Jesus in the stable". Well now the global media zeitgeist has turned to- "Lost Souls" & what we ought do about them. ... read full story / add a comment

Gay Wedding For Philippine Communist Rebels Two communist rebel fighters in the Philippines have tied the knot in a ceremony at a jungle base. The pair are members of the New People's Army, rebels who have been fighting for independence in rural areas since the late 1960s. The NPA added same-sex relationships and marriage to its independence manifesto policy in 1998. But, the Philippine government which has been waging war against the communists does not recognize gay relationships and in much of the country homosexuality remains a taboo. ... read full story / add a comment

from pagan writer
The question becomes, What is Tara Where are the boundaries of the ancient site says Gavin Bone, prominent Pagan author and resident of Kells, on the M3 route. The Roads Authority has defined the sacred precinct of Tara as the small area currently fenced off. But in truth the site is much larger: it sprawls across several hilltops, and includes the whole Skryne Valley.

Uribe as you know is President of Colombia, and has been very unpopular with us for a long time. His most recently was blamed by Mr Chavez (who is generally in our good books) for an illegal military incursion into Venezualan territory, an event which caused everyone to go into a flap in that corner of the world. ... read full story / add a comment

In case you haven't already heard, Ward Churchill has been attacked by the American national media, and others, for an essay he wrote on September 11th a few years ago. He's received threats to his job, as well as his to his life. Most recently, swastikas were painted on his truck while it sat outside his home. good site: http://www.kersplebedeb.com/mystuff/s11/churchill.html It raises central elements of censorship and free speech. He is also not the only American academic under attack by right wing groups. For those that physically stop Justin Barrett from speaking, any thoughts? ... read full story / add a comment

Here follows the complete text of the 43rd President of the USA "state of the Union" address to the institutions of government of the emergent democracy of the North America. It is important and of Irish interest for several reasons, which can be summarised thusly- the USA is an important trade partner of the EU and Ireland. We do a lot of business with them. Most of the citizens of the USA speak a dialect of English which we can readily misunderstand. (It is rumoured on Opus Dei websites [subscription only] that the USA has since the end of the last really really big European war been subject to a power struggle between "corporations" (who own the news and best sneaker brands and make cars) & a sinister group of hooded tattooed basque speakers known as "bonesmen".) ... read full story / add a comment
