Websters (unabridged ) International Dictionary gives the physics of astigmatism as
" A defect of an optical system(as a Lens or mirror) in consequence of which rays from a
single point of an object fail to meet in a single focal point thus causing the image
of a point to be drawn out into a line and the images of lines having a certain direction
to be less distinct than those of lines transverse to that direction." read full story / add a comment

The pole with its two spy cameras and satellite communication disc was erected about two weeks ago to the outrage of local residents (it's there to deal with anti-social behaviour apparently, and to what cost?). read full story / add a comment

Mental illness and the treatment of mental illness have become conflated in the minds of lay people and professional alike. It is an astute practitioner who can distinguish the effects of treatment from the effects of illness when they look at a mental patient. In my humble opinion standard treatment contributes more to stigma and isolation of the mental patient than any underlying illness he or she may suffer from. read full story / add a comment

The mass media representation of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi as an Al-Qaeda leader is inaccurate. Al-Qaeda as an 'organisation' has no formal structure, and would be more accurately described as philosophy. Media representations of the group are seriously flawed and buy into the assumptions underlying the US-led 'war on terror'. read full story / add a comment

They may well gloat at the death of Al-Zarqawi but their defeat in Iraq is an inevitability.

'Rock Against The Blocks' are Republican Youth concerts and were a common feature during the Hungerstrike of 1981, they were organised by 'Youth Against The H Blocks' who mobilised massive support behind the Prisoners 5 Demands, through the use of popular and direct action means.

25 years on from the 1981 Hungerstrike, and from the original ‘Rock Against The Blocks’, Ógra Shinn Féin have revived the youth concerts.

A large training ship, the m.v. State of Maine, arrived in Cork Harbour yesterday evening (6/6/06 - how appropriate!) and berthed at the Deepwater Quay in the town of Cobh, just 500 metres from the town centre and 300 metres from the headquarters of the Irish Naval Service at Haulbowline. read full story / add a comment
