Known for the low calibre of its writing, coverage of unpopular local bands along with scribbling childish doodles on the walls of public toilets and a striking, contemporary design based on what the inside of an bin looks like, the magazine has gone from strength to strength (selling nearly 3 copies in the summer of 2004!)

Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (6665 words)
Northern Ireland is unofficially known as "The North" (by nationalists and residents in the Republic of Ireland), the Six Counties (by nationalists) and "Ulster" (by unionists) (Ulster also includes Donegal, Cavan, and Monaghan, which are in the Republic).
Six of the Ulster counties remain under British sovereignty as Northern Ireland following Ireland's partition in 1922 (the remaining 26 forming present-day Republic of Ireland); since the UK's 1974 reshuffle these county boundaries no longer exist in Northern Ireland for administrative purposes, although Fermanagh District Council is almost identical to the county.
Across SE Ulster and extending SW to Longford and S to Navan is a province of Ordovician and Silurian rocks with more affinities with the Southern Uplands province of Scotland.
