| Seomra Spraoi calls for solidarity and support
Seomra Spraoi is a large and vibrant social centre, just off Capel St in Dublin. It is used by small campaign and informal groups for meetings, workshops and is also a place where arts, crafts and children's activities take place.
For a community of people engaged in seeking positive social change, it is a point of contact, a source of resources and information and a base for skills and knowledge sharing. Recently, the gardai have succeeded in having the place temporarily shut down, presenting the collective that runs the centre with a complex legal and bureaucratic situation. Maybe you can be of some assistance.

Response to InfoWorld’s Choices on 2007’s Top Technology
First of all, I must note for the record that InfoWorld has never given me an award as being top in any category. I'm thankful that they've spared their readers that pain. Now that I've gotten that over with, I'd like to comment on an article I recently read over at InfoWorld. David Marshall, a well known comentator on the virtualization arena and quite an interesting person, comments on his choices of the best technology from 2007. Although several fine products are mentioned, they seem to be the obvious choices because they offered technology that certainly was good enough to statisfy the needs of many organizations and were both highly and successfully publicized by their developers. What about the technology that was less highly publicized but, very interesting nevertheless? I suspect that the products that were easiest to defend were selected due to the limited space allowed for such discussions.
Colleges, NHL Devising Ways To Work Together On Players' Early Entry ...
I don't think that's ever changed," NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly said. The part of Okposo's departure that was hardest for Minnesota to take was that he had declined an offer last summer to sign with the Isles, who made him the seventh overall pick in the 2006 draft. Okposo was eager to play at least one more season at renowned Mariucci Arena and live the college life for another year. That changed when Islanders general manager Garth Snow came back with an increase of the club's original offer, encouraging Okposo to turn pro. For a 19-year-old determined to make a successful career out of his skills on the ice, the opportunity was too good to wait for. "Life has funny twists and turns," Michele Okposo said, adding: "Kyle was just sick about leaving." Snow, a former goalie who graduated from Maine and played for the Black Bears in the 1993 national championship game before 12 seasons in the NHL, described his college experience as one he'll "cherish" the rest of his life.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Jay-Z As Frank Lucas? Rockers Got Jokes? Can't Ban The ...
And to be honest, Lil Wayne did not do the track justice, and didn't come harder than JP and Versatile on that track. 2 fuckin years later he drops "PMW" ! If you wanna check it out you can find it on www.allhiphop.com under Mediazone. The industry is shady!
We, as local artists, have to work 10 times as hard, just to get heard by the industry. And then when you do get heard, 9 out of 10 times we get fucked over. Get ya shit copyrighted, trademarked, and if any Producer gives you a beat in your f**kin' hand and says here it's yours, spit over it. Get it in writing! Between the money we put into the professional recording and mixing of that track, promoting the song, it being played on the hottest radio station on the Gulf Coast, and that whole Miami trip, yeah we got fucked over!
Like I said, "I ain't co-signing s**t!"

Dialtone’s Unlikely Arc
Someday, Alvaro Albarracin may step back and smile when he thinks about how he guided his company through the dot-com implosion of the past two years. Of course, that would require looking back, and Mr. Albarracin prefers looking ahead. He is already focused on the next move for Dialtone Internet Inc., the privately held company he founded in 1998. We want to be the number 1 managed hosting provider in the world, says the 33-year-old entrepreneur. Wed like to merge with or acquire other companies so we can scale faster. That may sound like a tall order for a company that grossed $7.9 million in sales last year, but given Mr. Albarracins track record, it could well prove achievable. He started his company as a one-man virtual Web-hosting firm in the bedroom of his home in suburban Miami. He and his wife, Madelyn, and their two young children had just moved into a four-bedroom home, and he convinced her that the extra bedroom could be an office.
