just found this site, no idea if I am late to the party on this one. check it out - bit of fun
Here’s the Dept of Finance statement issued late last evening about the Minister’s discussion with the banks. I think we know why some banks didn’t want to be in the guarantee scheme: those in the scheme can be made an offer they can’t refuse: to merge.

The FAS/Florida row is not the only time the issue of her travel costs has arisen.

Irish Parties looking at learning online and database lessons from Obama could do worse than bear this post in mind. Almost as soon as the election is over, improvements and evolution are making some parts redundant and others essential. Get your campaign an i-phone for everyone? Might be better than printing flyers, it goes to show how parties, if they take it seriously, need to keep ahead of the wave - not just follow.
Colman at the EuroTrib give his reasoning on why Lisbon is dead. The Government's incapable handling of the budget cuts are the nail in the coffin.
What he said about using modern mediums on the internet is great. Without a doubt his are the best youtube videos. He also blogs infrequently but regularly(by the looks of it, I only looked at it two days ago). His youtube videos really stand out though. The sound is good, the point is clear, they are short(roughly 1 minute for most), and they usually have some visual impact.
That, so far as I’m concerned, is the way to inform young people. They wont watch long videos, and they need visual impact and the videos to be well made.
Well done that man
Damn my multiple windows open at the same time!
Obviously meant to post this comment on the Ciaran Cuffe blog, sorry about that.
