O Mary, we crown thee with blossoms today.Queen of the angels and Queen of the May.

RTE play this lovely song several times today on different broadcasts. I thought there was a strange resonance with it today… 20 years after the X case Ireland agrees legislation for the ‘limited protection’ of women’s human rights. Happy May Day

Screengrab – a recursive illusion by filmmaker Willie Witte, who sez:

An experiment in transitions. None of the visuals are computer generated. All the trickery took place literally in front of the camera.

Apart from Sheeba’s Horscopes, obviously.

An utterly brilliant performance of ‪Meiecundimees üks Korsakov läks eile Lätti by Estonian metal band Winny Puhh in the qualifiers for the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest last month.‬

They placed third.

Robbed, they were.

Needs more combover.

John Murphy writes:

Deputy General Secretary of the GRA John Healy has been in the news recently. It appears that very few people seem to know that his official name is John Healy-Rae.

Perhaps Broadsheet might get in touch with him and ask him why he uses Healy as opposed to Healy Rae?
