These articles take concepts from many different areas, ones which seem to pop up constantly in our modern day lives, ones which bring up questions about where we are going in our society, and if we have a good future. From what I have read, we don't have much to look forward to.
The papers these days seem to focus more on misfortune, cruelty, death, greed and the idols of our time, not saying that they all coincide with one another but I have realised now that I have obtained no significant knowledge or anything positive from reading the news, this is why I don't bother. It is good to keep up with world affairs, but why is it that everything going on in the world is filled with negativity and the focus of all the bad qualities of man, where is the good?
Nights of The Old Puffins.
Star wars VII is being filmed on Skellig Michael, co Kerry. The Bird watchers are concerned for the birds who inhabit the area, especially the puffins who are beginning their mating season. This is big news for ireland, a large franchise like Star Wars storming our shores is great for publicity.
The cast and crew Are relaxing on their last day of shooting.There was a 3 Mile no fly zone above the island during shooting and a 2 mile wide radius restriction over the waters was also enforced, to keep filming safe from prying eyes. The townspeople were also sworn to secrecy, and even a few of the crew were told before filming started that they were doing a documentary on puffins!
Just a little cartoon about jedi's giving some good karma to Skellig. As there was also a very large oil deposit found close by, bringing alot of attention from the wrong kinds of people.
I also enjoyed the small segment below it, it's about a man who has given up alcohol entirely, finding a new lease on life. He goes on about it being the best decision he has ever made, maybe a few people should consider this as an option, I know of a few my own age who could do without it, including myself, as it releases something that scares me sometimes, and it's bad when a man can't trust himself with a drink. As a nation who prides itself on alcohol consumption and getting "shit faced", maybe there should be a change in the way we think and act. The youth of today has only progressed in it's drinking capabilities, it's becoming a mockery.
