Hafa tatamanu ha? Todu maolek

Some of you will be aware that my use of language can be quite innovative. That is a language says one thing and I pronounce it completely differently! There are times when I am sure that I may have committed a genocide on various languages and would be brought before the Hague, save for the fact that the Language police haven't caught me yet. I like languages. I may prounce everything wrong and make huge grammatical screwups in form but I still like em!

So you can imagine my delight when I came across this site which told me how to say "How are in you?" in 426 languages! I may never get to speak Chamorro ( from Guam) or Cree (from Canada) but you never know.......

RTE's New 24 Hour News Service

One of three similarly themed Rte logos currently usedImage via Wikipedia
Ok a 24 hour news service would suggest to me, that it is news 24 hours a day. However in true Irish style, RTE's new 24 hour News service is rather a re-run of the previous news bulletin! That is not a Digitial 24 hour news channel! Putting a ticker underneath the news bulletin also does not make it a Digital 24 hour news channel! Somebody get them onto the BBC and show them what a proper Public Broadcaster does with a Digital 24 hour news channel!

Watch RTE News Now! here.
