New Cork yahoo group
To keep people who join the group informed about alternative and left-wing and events and meetings and demos in Cork, everything from The SWP to the Tibetan Buddhists to community arts. Its getting hard to flypost and hopefully this group will make it easier to publicise events. Anyone can send messages to the whole group, but anyone posting stuff -which isn't publicising an event, -or is e.g: racist,homophobic or just right-wing will have that message removed and may be barred from the group. Another Cork, isn't, at the moment anyway a discussion forum, to avoid getting bogged down in dogma wars. . read full story / add a comment

Here’s a collation of all the English-language coverage (including pics) on German IndyMedia of this year’s protests against the haulage of 12 more Castor containers of nuclear waste to the Gorleben “interim” storage hall near the north German village of Gorleben. A 21-year-old French student died after the train ran over him in France when he tried to stop. This collation also contains some other anti-nuclear protest news that appeared here recently in English. read full story / add a comment

A full house heard this program of very popular pieces which sounded fresh, new and free from cliche. There were many new faces in evidence around the National Concert Hall for this performance and, judging by last night's experience, audiences around the country are in for a very pleasant musical treat. read full story / add a comment

Dublin City Council will be introducing Pay by Use/Volume System for household waste from 1st January 2005. This system is designed to benefit the environment by encouraging housholds to reduce, reuse and recycle their waste materials and present theirs bins or bags for collection when they full. It quite simple - the less you throw away the less you pay!!! There are also wavier systems in place. In this system waste can be presented in either in a Wheelie Bin or in Tagged Bags. read full story / add a comment
Possible Chemical Attack

At first I didn't notice, the spots of pinky red on the photo were enough to say "blood" and that these kids were shot or killed by conventional weapons. I was more revulsed by the casualness of the "trophy-kill" snap.

It suddenly hit me, what I was looking at was the result of a Chemical Attack of some sort. There are no wounds on any of the bodies. No pools of blood. No shattered frames hit by high calibre guns. I'm not a forensic toxicologist but the demeanour of the bodies suggests death by asphyxiation. They all choked to death. Remember the images from Halabja?

No they didn't die somewhere else and were moved, they died right there. How do I know? Third in we see a little girl who kicked off her pink slippers as she writhed in agony on the ground gasping for a breath. The boy furthest away in close up reveals him in a convulsed state, a death-throe similar to the gas victims from ww2. read full story / add a comment

Lies! Damned Lies! And Statistics! This certainly applies to this survey that claims that Ireland is the best country in the world to live in. Ireland the best country in the world to live in! Come on get a grip! Are these people for real? What planet are they living on? Are these economists, businesspeople and their rich friends so detacthed from the stark reality of daily life for most people that they believe such stuff? read full story / add a comment

Presiding Judge: Joseph Mangan
Prosecution : Inspector Kennedy
Defendants: Conor Cregan, Owen Rice, Elaine O'Sullivan, Zelda Jeffers.

Today in Ennis Court House, the sitting of Shannon District Court (long story) was expected to be fairly routine, even for the four peace activists facing charges before judge Mangan. As it turned out, the Judge was in no humour for routine. read full story / add a comment

The Green Party and Libertarian Party have just recently succeeded in raising enough money to demand a recount of votes in the Ohio election.

David Cobb of the Green Party and Michael Badnarik of the Libertarian Party (both candidates for the 2004 election) are both demanding a recount. These are the same two candidates who were arrested outside of one of the debates earlier in the year.

The campaign raised $150,000 in four days, more than the necessary 113,000 needed for a state recount. read full story / add a comment

Press Release
16/11/04
For Immediate Release.

The collapse of today’s case in the Belfast High Court, against Seamus Doherty, is the only rational and just outcome for a case that had quite obviously been initiated by shadowy and corrupt state forces in order that an innocent man be placed behind bars. read full story / add a comment
