Dublin mist-ified.

Took this on Saturday morning past as I took off from Dublin Airport. Only back on Wifi now. Pigeon House Towers enveloped in a thick morning mist struggle to keep their heads above water. Sugar Loaf & Bray Head look on from a distance!

Voting on Friday?
The error affects the following categories of Voter :
• New Voters who have not received Polling Cards;
• Voters who recently changed address, whose Polling Cards have been sent to their former addresses.
• Voters to whom Polling Cards were sent directing them to the wrong Polling Station.Finally, a small number of Polling Cards issued in error to Voters who are now deceased.
Dublin City Council apologises unreservedly to the families and relatives concerned for any distress this may have caused.
Oh.

(The launch of the Campaign to Freeze Anglo Assets in July outside the Central bank, Dame Street, Dublin)
They ripped off everyone.
A US court has been told that the former Anglo Irish Bank overcharged clients by more than half a billion euro.
The allegation was made by Eddie Fitzpatrick, who runs a forensic banking firm called Bankcheck.
Mr Fitzpatick’s claim is part of litigation being taken by Irish developer John Flynn, who is making allegations of fraud against IBRC; formerly Anglo Irish Bank.
Mr Flynn is objecting to the liquidation of IBRC because it could block him being paid damages if he won his fraud case.
In new documents lodged in US Bankruptcy Court in Delaware, Mr Fitzpatrick said he had audited 31 separate customer accounts.
He found the clients had been overcharged as a result of “loading” of interest rates…
A federal crime.
As John Grisham fans will know.

Let’s go to work.
Urging a yes vote to abolish the senate introduce a Court of Appeal on the ‘plinth’ this afternoon were cross-party members from left: Labour’s Mr Pink Alex White, Fine Gael’s Alan Shatter, Sinn Fein’s Padraig MacLoughlainn and Fianna Fail’s Sean O’Fearghail.

So much to answer for.

Paul Graham’s 2008 Hierarchy Of Disagreement.
It’s impossible to refute explicitly.
The Medusae Collection: a series of four rather handsome meter-tall mylar pendant lamps modeled on freshwater jellies by Californian design house Roxy Russell.
They don’t sting.
Unless you consider €275 to €330 per lampshade (plus shipping) a sting.
Oh, it’s fupping on.
