Camogie team and Journalist honoured by County Council via The Limerick Blogger November 27th, 2007 at 16:58
Limerick won their first ever All-Ireland senior Camogie Championships after beating Cork in the All-Ireland Senior B final last month, and their achievement was recognised by the County Council during a special presentation to the team. “I congratulate Aoife Sheehan as captain, the team, panel, trainers, coaches, selectors and back room staff because I know that the winning of an All Ireland title is not done on the day of battle. The extensive training and many hours of planning that is required by the players and their mentors to win an All Ireland title begins months beforehand and often goes unrecognised” said Councillor Kevin Sheehan at a reception held at County Hall in Dooradoyle. Also receiving an award for his achievements was journalist Arthur Quinlan. Mr....

Madeleine McCann..The Daily Express….& Robinson Crusoe via "AN UNREPENTANT COMMUNIST....." November 15th, 2007 at 16:03
As the time since Madeleine McCann's disappearance draws past the 6 month mark, the ever greedy British middle-brow press, represented by titles such as the Daily Express and the Daily Mail, grow ever more desperate to keep the pot boiling and interest maintained in a case that seems to be able to sell their papers as readily as Princess Diana's story in both life and death used to. Its now open season on any person or agency which seems to be genuinely puzzled by the inconsistencies in the team McCann version of what happened on that fateful night in May. The Portuguese police are portrayed as sleazy lazy greasy fat dagoes who spend their time quaffing wine, chewing their toothpicks removing congealed sardines from their dentures, and smoking foul smelling cigarettes scheming to...

Peter Didsbury via georgiasam November 3rd, 2007 at 01:42
This interview dates from 2003 and first appeared in Metre. I hope it’s still of interest. Peter Didsbury was born in Fleetwood, Lancashire, in 1946, and moved to Hull aged six. He is the author of The Butchers of Hull (1982), The Classical Farm (1987), That Old-Time Religion (1994), and Scenes from a Long Sleep: New and Collected Poems (2003), all published by Bloodaxe. Puthwuth: Andrew Duncan has wondered on your behalf why you were “so much later than [your] contemporaries in starting, when access to print was easier in the Sixties than at any time before or since.” “Why did [you] publish [your] first book at the age of 36,” he goes on, “and why did [you] evolve so much out of touch with [your] real contemporaries, although [your] eventual technique is so easy to...

BRITISH OCCUPATION AND THE LONDON 'TIMES' .......From 'The United Irishman' newspaper, January 1958 . On December 12th , 1957 , 'The Irish Independent' newspaper reported - " Early yesterday morning a jeep-load of British soldiers accompanied by a member of the RUC crossed the border into the republic at Tyholland Frontier Post on the Monaghan-Armagh road . They were part of a Six-County 'police patrol' operating along the Armagh-Monaghan border . Mr. M. Crowley , the Customs Officer on the republic side , thought at first that the patrol had lost its way and allowed it to return to the Six Counties unchallenged . A few minutes later , however , the same vehicle again crossed the border into the republic , but this time Mr. Crowley stood in the centre of the road and forced the...

Vatican watcher reveals Italian cardinal’s Conclave speech to Pope Benedict via Clerical Whispers October 26th, 2007 at 23:23
Cardinal Giacomo Biffi commits his memoirs to a book.And here's a preview: the speech he gave in the closed-door meeting with the cardinals.And also, his critical views on John XXIII, on the Council, and on the "mea culpas" of John Paul II.On the eve of his eightieth birthday, cardinal Giacomo Biffi is sending out to the bookstores an extensive autobiographical volume, entitled "Memorie e digressioni di un italiano cardinale [Memories and Digressions of an Italian Cardinal]."Biffi is remembered above all as the archbishop of Bologna, from 1984 to 2003. But in the book, he reviews his entire life, from his birth in working-class Milan to when he became a priest, then a professor of theology, a pastor, a bishop, and finally a cardinal.In the foreword, Biffi quotes these words of saint...

Greg Delanty's translations of Seán Ó Ríordáin are out. It's a book everyone should buy. Allow me to mark its appearance with some thoughts on Ó Ríordáin and Philip Larkin. And yes I can see the lineation is all wrong in lots of the poetry quotations. Blogger doesn't do lineation, does it. But I'm lazy to fix it now. Amárach! By way of illustration of the divided condition of eighteenth-century Ireland, Thomas Kinsella has pointed out that two of its greatest poetic geniuses, Jonathan Swift and Aodhagán Ó Rathaille, spent their lives each in ignorance of the other’s existence. The comparison may not be an exact one, but in the twentieth century two outstanding poetic geniuses, also with much in common, spent their careers too in almost certain mutual ignorance: Philip Larkin...

Hold Everything Dear II via Disillusioned Lefty October 17th, 2007 at 02:13
For what it's worth, the review for Trinity News of Hold Everything Dear by John Berger. Thanks to Hugh Green and Douglas Hind whose comments were considered and maybe even stolen.It is a testament to the conservatism of the modern University’s student-body that, should a student happen to have come across the soft-spoken, yet radical voice of one John Berger, it is more than likely that this student is a student of art history while, à la fois, it is less than likely that this student will have read much more than 100 of his soporifically composed pages. Mr. Berger has been teaching students how to read images with the smug, paranoid eye of a leftist for as long as Noam Chomsky has been teaching them to read the mainstream newspapers with that same eye. Nevertheless, he remains an...

my blogspot column from today's irish times:JP Rangaswami is a former economist and financial journalist who was born and spent half his life in the Indian city of Calcutta. Currently he's based in London as the chief information officer for BT Global Services - not bad for a man who describes himself as "an accidental technologist for a quarter of a century or so". Confused of Calcutta is his personal blog rather than a BT-endorsed publication.

New archaeological survey of Clare Island via An Irish Town Planner's Blog October 8th, 2007 at 02:23
The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Mr. John Gormley, T.D., has launched 'The New Survey of Clare Island, Volume 5: Archaeology' in the Royal Irish Academy, Dawson Street, Dublin 2.Minister Gormley said - "The survey is complementary to the research and awareness-raising work ongoing in my Department".In response to the view expressed by Professor Slevin, President of the RIA, that many within the archaeological community felt that Irish archaeology was undoubtedly at a crossroads and, some might even suggest, was in crisis, the Minister responded that "Disseminating knowledge and increasing public awareness will be one of the touchstones of the wide-ranging review of archaeological policy and practice in Ireland, which I have initiated."The Minister will be...

Josephine Green of Philips on the need for social innovation via Putting people first September 11th, 2007 at 20:44
The presentation on “social innovation” by Josephine Green, senior director of trends and strategy at Philips Design, at the IIT Institute of Design’s Strategy Conference is now also available as a printed booklet and a pdf: “Democratizing the future. Towards a new era of creativity and growth“. Though very focused on promoting Philips Design and its projects, it contains some valuable new concepts and ideas. Here is the abstract: Major corporations are often restricted by a too-limited view of the future. This view is based on the western belief that time is linear and that the future is merely an empty space that can be ‘colonized’ to the present and filled with ever more technology and consumer goods. However, this technology and consumer...

The furnishings of Glin Castle via Bloggers Banquet September 10th, 2007 at 06:45
Cara Magazine, Monday September 10th“We’re all creatures of our environment,” says Desmond FitzGerald, the 29th Knight of Glin from the comfy sitting room of Glin Castle, in County Limerick. For the FitzGeralds, that environment hasn’t changed in over 700 years, beginning when they first arrived here and made Glin their home in the late 1300’s. The romantically-titled Knights of Glin, a branch of the great Norman family, the FitzGeralds or Geraldines, Earls of Desmond, were granted extensive lands in County Limerick in the early 14th century by their Desmond overlords. The Desmond family were descended from the Norman Maurice FitzGerald, a companion-in-arms to Strongbow. Over the years the house and the family has stood defiant, just, having almost being burned during the War of...

NEOREALISMO in Winterthur via Singularity September 3rd, 2007 at 16:01
The new image in Italy 1932-1960 Neorealism, mainly associated with the films by Visconti, De Sica and Rossellini, was a heartfelt artistic response to the transformation of Italy in the course of the twentieth century. With the demise of Fascism, which had harnessed the mass media of photography and film for its own purposes and moulded a new aesthetic of reality, Neorealism surged to the fore. The newfound freedom of opinion and the need to forge a new Italian identity fuelled a feverish interest in documenting reality and exploring what it meant to be Italian. One after another, illustrated magazines were launched and photographic-ethnographic field studies undertaken on life in the country’s remote communities. Society needed photographs that captured all aspects of life in every...

The time to separate faith from the fatherland is now (Contribution) via Clerical Whispers September 3rd, 2007 at 00:58
DESPITE some silly-season aspects, the debates arising out of Archbishop Brady's Knock sermon and, in particular, out of the Sikh turban question, are now revealing issues of large significance.The crozier ain't what it used to be and the Archbishop's petulant complaints about tarot cards and astrologers are a far cry from the self-assured, dogmatic pronouncements of prelates such as John Charles McQuaid, Cornelius Lucey and Jeremiah Newman, a generation ago.Of course, Irish bishops have always condemned popular beliefs and customs outside their control, such as various rural piseogs and the lively wake amusements of our ancestors.In a sign of the changing times, letter-writers and media presenters have been quick to note the perceived inconsistency of a spokesman for one faith-system...

Fundamentality via My name is Ciarán Mc Mahon August 23rd, 2007 at 04:02
I suppose that there's not that much that can be said at this hour of the night, except a small amount of truth.This blog is a good example of what is called navel-gazing - you know, part of the 'blog as representative of the age of narcissism' mood that's picking up speed. That it's rich of me to expect that anyone would want to read the narrative of a self-confessed arsehole.But of course this isn't the point at all. And anyone has gone into blogging for that reason - for the attention and respect of others - is doing it for the wrong reasons. In all fairness, that sort of opinion arises from lack of understanding, and education possibly also, of the essence of writing, and publication of narratives.Writing isn't really about reporting, it's as much about creating as anything.

Shroud of Secrecy via Clerical Whispers August 18th, 2007 at 22:05
The Competitors –Pages 110-112In ecclesiastical circles, and particularly in the Vatican Curia, homosexuality is either a slander that taints the victim for the rest of his life, or a competition that prelates enter to see how much they can get away with.It is, nevertheless, a dangerous sport played by the less sophisticated.In some Vatican circles, the phenomenon of homosexuality–a state of being that today is regarded with clemency and understanding– can help a hopeful candidate advance more quickly and cause a rival to lose the desire to present himself for promotion.The intrigues are cruel, and the protagonists are even more so.In the list of hopefuls for promotion, the one who gives himself from the waist down has a better chance than the one who gives his heart and mind to the...

Bootboy: Leonardo and the Codex Leicester via a bit of bonhomie August 4th, 2007 at 17:30
Leonardo da Vinci was a scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, musician, and writer. One of his great works, the notebook called the Codex Leicester, is on display in Dublin at the moment. I went along to re-acquaint myself with a man I haven’t really considered since school, and I found myself in awe. Renaissance humanism saw no distinction between science and the arts, and Leonardo da Vinci epitomises that confluence of approaches. Nowadays the scientific method seems to be anything but creative, although of course individual scientists can be exceptions to that rule; then, the natural world was to be experienced and reflected upon with both wonder and a sense of artistry. It was observational rather than theoretical, emphasizing the...

The life and times of Derek Beackon via yourfriendinthenorth August 4th, 2007 at 15:57
Do you remember Derek Beackon? Derek was the first member of the British National Party to achieve success at the ballot box way back in 1993 in a local council election at Millwall. Derek didn't become a permanent fixture in British politics though. First of all he was an idiot and could just about string two sentences together. Secondly he had an unhealthy fascination with Nazi Germany (please note: if you want to pursue a career in politics it is probably best to abandon any respect you have for the Third Reich). In the wake of his victory pictures surfaced of him giving fascist salutes at a white power event. Which was surprising because didn't really a look like a fascist, did he? A paedophile perhaps, but not a fascist. Anyhow, as a result of his lack of intelligence and...

Why Did This ‘Saint’ Fail To Act On Sinners Within His Flock? (Contribution) via CLERICAL WHISPERS May 26th, 2007 at 01:34
When David Yallop enters a bar or a restaurant he scans the room for anybody whose presence might make him uneasy.Call it paranoia, but he always chooses a seat with its back to the wall. Such caution is understandable in a man who entered Beirut with a price on his head.On that occasion he was on the trail of the international terrorist, Carlos the Jackal, and now, not for the first time, the might of mitres is about to be swivelled in his direction with the publication of his latest investigative opus.It has taken Yallop more than eight years to write The Power and the Glory, the goal of which is to de-sanctify a man on the road to sainthood: the late Pope John Paul II.Yallop, who describes himself as a Catholic agnostic, is aware that many will regard this work as heretical. Others...

Rome Denies Apocalypse Secret via CLERICAL WHISPERS May 14th, 2007 at 17:01
THE Vatican tried yesterday to draw a line under a conspiracy theory that has dogged the Catholic Church for decades - that it has been harbouring details of the predicted apocalypse.The Pope's second-in-command, Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone (pic'd here), denied that the church was suppressing a vision of the end of the world said to have been revealed by the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children on a hillside at Fatima in Portugal exactly 90 years ago.The three Secrets of Fatima were written down by one of the children, Lucia Dos Santos - who became a Carmelite nun - and sent to the Vatican in a sealed envelope.Two of the secrets were made public, apparently predicting 20th-century world war, totalitarianism and the eventual reconversion of communist Russia to...

Limbo has danced its last dance. via Fatmammycat.com April 23rd, 2007 at 14:13
Ahh, this is yet another reason why I'm a strict non-religious sort. Goalpost moving you see, cherry picking and just plain old bollockology has wrung every last scrap of tolerance out of me.Observe, from Reuters.'VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The Roman Catholic Church has effectively buried the concept of limbo, the place where centuries of tradition and teaching held that babies who die without baptism went.In a long-awaited document, the Church's International Theological Commission said limbo reflected an "unduly restrictive view of salvation".The 41-page document was published on Friday by Origins, the documentary service of the U.S.-based Catholic News Service, which is part of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.Pope Benedict, himself a top theologian who before his election in...

Could this be… via Heart to Heart April 17th, 2007 at 18:39
Gentle Reader, What will be the “END” will the world end with a “BANG” or a whimper? Well today let’s look at some of the beliefs that are running current around the world today.End times beliefs in Christianity vary widely. Christian premillennialists, who believe the End Times are now, usually articulate a fairly specific timetable that climaxes in the end of the world. For some, Israel, the European Union, or the United Nations are seen as key players whose role was foretold in prophecies. Among dispensational premillennialists, there are those that believe that they will be supernaturally summoned to Heaven by God in an event called the Rapture before the tribulations prophesied in the Bible's book of Revelation take place.'End times' may also refer simply to the passing of...

‘Liturgical Shipwreck’ via Juventutem na hEireann - (Est.2005 A.D.) March 31st, 2007 at 14:23
The final part of our series in tribute to the late Michael Davies.I would be delighted to hear from priests who may wish to celebrate the Classical Roman Rite of the Mass.There is a lot of information in these short pamphlets.I would encourage people to read them and pass them on and inform people of the importance of the Traditional Latin Mass and our Catholic spirituality and heritage.The Latin Mass is probably the best sermon any priest can give us.Let us pray for priests that they may begin to offer the Traditional Mass more often and deepen in holiness."The real destruction of the traditional Mass, of the traditional Roman Rite, with a history of more than one thousand years, is the wholesale destruction of the faith on which it was based, a faith that had been the source of our...

This is the second in a series of pamphlets written by the late Michael Davies.TAN BOOKS"For from the rising of the sun even to the going down, My name is great among the Gentiles, and in every place there is sacrifice, and there is offered to My name a clean oblation: for My name is great among the Gentiles, saith the Lord of hosts."-----Malachias 1: 11Introduction"Our Mass goes back, without essential change, to the age when it first developed out of the oldest liturgy of all. It is still redolent of that liturgy, of the days when Caesar ruled the world and thought he could stamp out the faith of Christ, when our fathers met together before dawn and sang a hymn to Christ as to a God. The final result of our inquiry is that, in spite of unsolved problems, in spite of later changes, there...

The Defamation Bill and the red herring school of debating via cearta.ie March 21st, 2007 at 10:52
With the Defamation Bill, 2006 (Department of Justice | Oireachtas (pdf)) on the agenda for the Seanad again today, now is good time to observe that the debate so far seems to have attracted more than its fair share of red herrings. First up is the rather fishy reaction to Fintan O’Toole’s piece Free press essential in democracy in the Irish Times (sub req’d) a fortnight ago. It was a largely positive piece, with only some relatively mild criticism near the end: The general tenor of the debate was suspicious and grudging, with no real sense of press freedom as being an essential aspect of democracy, to be restricted reluctantly and only so far as is necessary. I couldn’t agree more. Yet, to this gentle rebuke caused the unedifying sight of senators seeking to find...

EPA finds surge in levels of greenhouse emissions via An Irish Town Planner's Blog February 6th, 2007 at 08:47
Liam Reid in The Irish Times covers this story:Greenhouse gas emission levels in Ireland have risen steeply for the first time in four years, a report to be published next week will show.The records, to be released by the Environmental Protection Agency, are expected to reveal that greenhouse gas emissions have surged by more than one million tonnes, to a figure in the region of 70 million tonnes a year.The rise, believed to be close to 2 per cent, is expected to be the largest since 2001, and will leave Ireland with one of the highest rates of emissions per head of population in the world.It will see emissions levels at over 25 per cent above 1990 levels, 12 percentage points higher than the Kyoto target.The report, which is being finalised this week, follows last Friday's publication of...

It’s the Enlightenment, Stupid via ie-politics January 30th, 2007 at 23:59
I'm busy reading Will Hutton's book The Writing on the Wall: China and the West in the 21st Century and it's excellent stuff. Hutton tells us that China's GDP grew by one-third. Fixed investment has tripled in six years; exports have quintupled. Everything that China does now effects us directly, such is the speed and scale of Chinese economic growth. The problem is that such an economy is not sustainable if it continues to be buttressed by the corrupt and authoritarian rule of the one party state. A collapse in Chinese growth will have upheavals for China and the world and Hutton wants to make a case about what both China and the West should do to avoid such a catastrophe. Hence the title of one of his chapters, it's the Enlightenment, stupid. Without what...

Lapsed Protestant – Glenn Patterson via Alan in Belfast January 4th, 2007 at 10:48
I’ve read a couple of Glenn Patterson novels since getting married four and a bit year’s ago. Number 5 was passed across from my wife’s bedside table, while That Which Was was a present. Both books capture the spirit, good and bad, of Northern Ireland with an authentic narrative that neither glorifies or condemns.His latest publication, Lapsed Protestant, must have sneaked into our house via Amazon. This time it’s not fiction. Instead it’s a selection of Patterson’s writings over the years in local, national and international papers, magazines and journals.It’s very autobiographical. By the time you have finished the very carefully ordered chapters, you have built up quite a picture of Patterson’s childhood, his motivations to write, his reasons for leaving Belfast, and...
