mayo / crime and justice / news report Thursday July 21, 2011 12:59 by Bob
Early Thursday morning at 3am Mayo County Council illegally removed a caravan from private property in Aughoose, opposite Shell's temporary compound. People from the Rossport Solidarity Camp were woken by the noise and ran down to the road in pyjamas to find their caravan being loaded onto a flatbed trailer. The gardaí present said to "take it up with the County Council" if there was a problem. When questioned as to why they were doing it at 3am if the removal of the caravan was lawful, there was no response. read full story / add a comment

“Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I get. But the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying, God, be thou merciful to me a sinner. I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; but he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.”

Luke Chapter 18

You probably know that a publican means a tax-collector. Such a person was generally hated reviled despised in biblical times. A publican was definitely not “politically correct.”

INFO
Monthly meeting here dedicated to a specific human subject, like a philosopher or an artist. A very informal event, meant to be participative, where persons will have one month at least given to
study the subject and bring in their contribution like readings, art, videos, performance actions, even if there is not a deep knowledge of these personalities, but inspired (even vaguely) and eventually site
specific. read full story / add a comment
