One we prepared earlier...
Since the requests of Monsignor Reilly seem to have been roundly ignored by the leaders of our educational emporium (Nestle anyone?), here's a selection of Fairtrade related videos from YouTube. All neatly tied up in an Embedr gift-wrap. Yes, I know thatwe're in the middle (middle?) of a recession but I think that this is meant to be global. Or does the developing world not count in these times? Less to lose I suppose.
So what does it all mean...?
Another one of those viral videos that pose a lot of questions but offer no answers. Anyway, there are no answers because ultimately it's all meaningless. Still, if it makes you feel like a philosopher for 5 minutes & 16 seconds, perhaps that's no bad thing...
Remembering the Big Bopper...
In all the 50th anniversary of "The Day The Music Died" celebrations, much has been (rightly) said, read & written about Buddy Holly; less so Ritchie Valens & The Big Bopper (Jiles "Jape" Richardson Jr).

- Create an account (you don't have to but it helps);
- Create a playlist from YouTube (or from a long list of other video-sharing sites such as TeacherTube);
- Save the playlist & embed the HTML code into your web-page, blog, Moodle, Joomla!, whatever.
