Up and coming Irish band from Dingle [Co Kerry] … a good video [by Boldpuppy productions] too :)
Includes graphic road safety ad-style pile up and zombie action.
Scenes from the G8 protests yesterday evening in and around Lough Erne Golf Resort, Enniskillen, Northern Ireland.
Some breached the razor wire.
With horrific consequences.

Or a great speech for Northern Ireland?
Obama’s address at Waterfront Hall, Belfast, yesterday (highlights above).
Eddie writes:
I have just watched the whole of Obama’s speech in Belfast on UTV. player…It is so unbelievably patronising….I can’t believe that even he isn’t embarrassed.
Full speech here
The trigger was a 2 June increase in the price of a single bus fare in Sao Paulo from 3 reals ($1.40, £0.90) to 3.20. …In a country soon due to host the World Cup and Olympics, many are now complaining that vast sums of money are being wasted instead of used for health and education.
Political leaders have also been accused of nepotism and corruption.

Tuesday afternoon on June 11th 2013, Police fired bullets at RC controlled flying camera during the protests in Taksim square, Istanbul. Police aimed directly at the camera.Unfortunately the last video was not saved properly on the memory card due to the impact of the bullet. The camera and the helicopter are completely broken.Here is the footage from that camera! This footage you are about to see is from the previous flights minutes before the incident.

“And what did your last slave die of?”
“Isn’t he a gas ticket.”
“Sure it’ll be grand.”
“Well he now is an amadán of the highest order.”
“Look at that now. And you can take pictures and everything with that? The lot? Isn’t that a great little gizmo now.”
Etc.
