"For this reason they (the Celts) measure periods of time
not by days but by nights; and in celebrating birthdays, the
first of the month, and new year’s day, they go on the
principle that the day begins at night." (
Julius Caesar,
Conquest of Gaul, VI.18)

"Briberization" (Step 1 of
4)by Connor Tue 28 Oct 2008 12:31:12 AM

"Each nation's economy is
individually analyzed, then, says
(Dr.)
Stiglitz, the Bank hands every minister the same
exact four-step program."
"Step One is
Privatization - which Stiglitz said could more accurately be
called, '
Briberization'. Rather than object to the sell-offs
of state industries, he said national leaders - using the
World Bank's demands to
silence local
critics
- happily flogged their electricity
and water companies".
"You could see their
eyes widen at the prospect of
10% commissions paid to Swiss
bank accounts for simply shaving a few billion off the sale
price of national assets."

died they would say, "well, he stopped the bloodletting too
soon, he still had a little blood in him."

"Q
& A sessions on both days"by Celtic
Family Wed 29 Oct 2008 12:37:06 PM
CDT Allowing for the fact that
Céifin derives its name from
Ceibhfhionn --
the Celtic Goddess of Intelligence, Inspiration, &
Knowledge -- I'm wondering if deep-rooted, difficult, and
awkward subjects and issues of the kind raised at
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/84679
(
Turoe Stone) and
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/89618
(global financial crisis) will be discussed at the
Céifin
Conference (County Clare) on Tuesday, 4th & Wednesday,
5th November?

Celtic New
Yearby Samhain Fri 31 Oct 2008 10:14:25
AM CDT "To the Celts,
time was circular rather than linear. This is reflected in
their commencing each day, and each festival, at dusk rather
than dawn, a custom comparable with that of the Jewish
Sabbath. It is also reflected in their year beginning with the
festival of Samhain
on 31 October, when nature appears to be dying
down. Tellingly, the first month of the Celtic year is
Samonios, ‘Seed Fall’: in other words,
from death and darkness
springs life and light." (Copied from
