TG4, 24/08 @ 21:30; The untold story of Irish song The Laughing Boy, written by Brendan Behan in memory of Michael Collins. With an extraordinary afterlife as To Yelasto Paidi, it became the powerful left-wing anthem of resistance in Greece in the late Sixties. The film takes poet Theo Dorgan on an odyssey of his own, as he uncovers the truth of the story behind the song. It is a narrative that interweaves the tragic and bloody birth-pangs of both modern Ireland and modern Greece. But these histories are also bound together by something more profound and transcendent – the power of a song.

SKY: “When Earth encounters many meteors at once, we call it a meteor shower.”
Suspected to originate from Comet 96P Machholz, the Southern Delta Aquariids meteor shower occurs any time between July 12 and August 23 annually. It can be seen best by people in the Southern Hemisphere and southern latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, according to NASA. However, a moon-free dark sky is crucial, EarthSky emphasized. Fittingly, the moon will only be 1% full during the peak.

SATURDAY, MARCH 2,1974
THE IRISH PEOPLE- PAGE 3
The Minister for Justice, Mr. Cooney, last night appealed to the public to be prepared to stand up and be counted in their attitude to the Provisional IRA. And in this connection he urged that IRA collection boxes and newspapers should be ignored by all citizens loyal to the State. Speaking at a Fine Gael function in Listowel, the Minister warned: “There can be no compromise in the question of loyalty to the State on the one hand, and the giving of support to the IRA on its fronts, on the other hand.” Mr. Cooney said the most potent weapon in the fight against the IRA was a “cold and antagonistic public opinion”, directed against that body in whatever form it manifests itself. He warned that there were many front organisations for the Provisionals with meritorious titles using terms like civil rights, prisoners dependants and others. Those of us who believed in parliamentary democracy and who abhorred violence, must, by our personal attitudes to the IRA in any of its manifestations, make clear our abhorrence of their tactics, he said. “Each of us may be tested from time to time in a small way to show that we are prepared to stand up and be counted in this regard,” Mr. Cooney went on.

U.S. Immigrant Visas Show Slight Rise The Visa Office of the U.S. State Department has issued its annual report, a copy of which was recently forwarded to the American Irish Immigration Committee in New York. During fiscal year 1973 (from July 1972 to June 1973) 972 U.S. immigrant visas were issued in Ireland. This figure represents a slight rise over the 1972 figure when 881 visas were issued, but is far below the 1964 figure of 6,328 visas. That was the final year before the 1965 U.S. Immigration Law went into effect. The number of non-immigrant or visitor’s visas issued in Ireland in 1973 was 27,363, an increase of 2,000 over the 1972 figure. In 1964 only 8,307 visitor’s visas were issued to Irishmen. Allowing for the fact that improved economic conditions in Ireland allow for an increased number of tourists to the U.S., such a figure gives rise to speculation that a fair number of Irishmen are using the visitor visa circuit to attempt to enter the U.S. Recent legislation and administration changes should cut down on this means of entry in the near future. The top ten countries sending immigrants to the U.S. in 1973 were the Philippines (27,229), Korea (22,514), China (21,052), Italy (21,026), India (12,768), Greece (10,824), Portugal (10,790), Great Britain (10,003), Yugoslavia (7,905) and Germany (5,785).

ISOLATED: Why do we get a buzz from being in large groups at festivals, jubilees and other public events? According to the social brain hypothesis, it’s because the human brain specifically evolved to support social interactions. Studies have shown that belonging to a group can lead to improved wellbeing and increased satisfaction with life.
Unfortunately though, many people are lonely or socially isolated. And if the human brain really did evolve for social interaction, we should expect this to affect it significantly. Our recent study, published in Neurology, shows that social isolation is linked to changes in brain structure and cognition – the mental process of acquiring knowledge – it even carries an increased risk of dementia in older adults.
