Official garda figures provided to RTÉ News show that between the start of January and the end of July, 5,989 phones were stolen. That compares to 5,002 in the same period last year and represents a 20% increase year on year.
The average value of the phones taken was approximately €250, nearly double the average value of the handsets taken during the same period last year, reflecting the increasing popularity and cost of smart phones.
According to gardaí, around 20% of mobile phones that are stolen are snatched from the owners. More than 30% are stolen from a vehicle, while one in every six is stolen in restaurants, shops or pubs.
The first official publicity still from Spielberg’s Lincoln biopic. Scotching rumours that Day-Lewis went ‘full-Abe’ in his preparation for the role:
There are numerous reports about Day-Lewis attempting to fully immerse himself in the mindset of someone who lived during the mid-1860s by avoiding the trappings of 21st — not to mention 20th — century life during the shoot, but Spielberg says his star never delved so deeply into character that he refused to acknowledge the modern world. “Daniel was always conscious of his contemporary surroundings,” Spielberg says. “Daniel never went into a fugue state. He did not channel Lincoln. All that stuff is just more about gossip than it is about technique.”
