Information on the sectarian motives and background of the Orange Order and of supporters of Willie Frazer's FAIR needs to be put into the public domain. The character of last Saturday's violent protest against the Orange march makes that task more difficult. However, the criticism must be pursued in the interests of real tolerance and pluralism. It shoud be done openly and peacefully, and therefore effectively. [In relation the (London) Independent picture caption: The five nationalists were massacred in Grahams bookies shop on the Ormeau Road – it is one reason why the community rose up and determined that the Orange Order would not march down the Ormeau Road again, without the Orange order first meeting the residents of that road. The Orange order have refused consistently to meet them, as they have also consistently refused to meet the spokespersons of the Garvaghy Road residents in Portadown.] read full story / add a comment

The story continues..... A examination of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. It shows that the Minister for Finance and government in general use quantum mechanics in their dealings with our finances. It also shows how to create matter from nothing. Politicians try to invert this process. An explanation of entropy. read full story / add a comment

I, like almost everybody I know, didn't predict the events of Saturday. In fact the only person I know who did predict a major riot was a friend of mine who happens to hail from the wee North - in retrospect I should have realised that he had his finger on the pulse, for not only does he have much more experience of sectarian marches, but through his job he knows many of the people who were involved and has an unusual insight and sympathy for those people who most Dubliners write off as 'scumbags' and 'knackers'. This article is an analysis of what happened and why almost everybody got it so wrong. This article is a companion piece to the photo essay which I published yesterday. read full story / add a comment

Sports Stars shocked at racism "FIX," snorted an urchin at the back, his voice rich with Dublin devilment and just a touch of disappointment. Like most young lads in the large, sweltering room, he'd had his eyes on the prize, a soccer ball signed by Liverpool's UEFA Cup-winning heroes. Yet the winning ticket was held by Adetoyese Kemi, a student at The Kings Inn Secondary School for girls. Of course it wasn't a fix. Just a delicious twist of fate which brought yesterday's formal launch of soccer's "Show Racism the Red Card" campaign in Ireland to a splendid conclusion. With 20,000 free posters of the Republic of Ireland team and an educational CD-Rom available for distribution to schools, the campaign is making a determined effort to educate the nation's children through sport. read full story / add a comment
