TG4 accessible in Belfast from Friday
TG4 will be available in Belfast and the surrounding area from next Friday when the TG4 signal will be transmitted from the communications mast on the top of Black mountain outside the city. Transmission trials will begin on Friday. The broadcasting of TG4 in the North was one of the conditions of the Good Friday Agreement. The Minister for Foreign Affairs Dermot Ahern and the Northern Secretary of State Paul Murphy will sign a memorandum today to formalise the broadcast.

Found this useful reference today on Wikibooks: an introduction to the Irish language detailing its origins and structure.
Wikibooks (and the whole Wikimedia foundation) is a great idea, and I liked the annotated texts they have too (indeed, there is probably lots of material available at Project Gutenberg that is ripe for annotation).
The Irish are not Celts, say experts 05 Sep 2004 The Sunday Times
THE long-held belief that Ireland’s population is descended from the Celts has been disproved by geneticists, who have concluded that they never invaded Ireland.
Apparently the genetics of the Irish didn’t change that much 2500 years ago when the Celts were supposed to have invaded Ireland and wiped out all the natives (no significant Celtic genes were found in samples from modern-day Irish by Brian McEvoy et al. from TCD), but rather genes can be traced back at least 9000 years to people who migrated from Spain and Portugal after the Ice Age thawed out.
