A sinuous double-feature from the mighty Marquese ‘Nonstop’ Scott to the tune of Tek One’s Broken String and Ellie Goulding’s Hanging On.
Fullscreen HD recommended in each case.

Shots have been fired at the home (above) of the former developer and Fianna Fáil election candidate [2002 General Election] Ger Killally in Edenderry, Co Offaly.
Mr Killally and his father sustained minor injuries in the incident.
…He drove away and was pursued by another vehicle in the direction of Clonbologue.
Mr Kilally’s car then went off the road and the other car left the scene.

Billed by the team of IBM engineers who made it as the ‘world’s smallest movie’, this 242-frame stop-motion animation was shot with a two-tonne microscope operating at minus 268°C and a special probe which arranged 5,000 carbon atoms into the ‘pixels’ of the moving image.
The magnification factor is 100,000,000x – about the same ratio that exists between an orange and the planet Earth.
Show offs.
What you may need to know.
1. This trailer is definitely NSFW, and most other places. It’s rather gory.
2. Eli Roth is the dude who made Cabin Fever (2002) and the Hostel flicks. He also played The Bear Jew in Inglorious Basterds (2011). And made the trailer (but not the film) for Thanksgiving.
3. Roth produced and stars in this. He also has a new Netflix Series, Hemlock Grove, and produced the hilariously titled Last Exorcism Part 2 (2013). He’s moving into theme parks next.
4. Mass mayhem + splatter = box office gold.
5. If it’s this or The Impossible (2012), we’re going with the former.

With regard to the “emotional debate” within FG I’m compiling a list of politicians who oppose the Abortion Legislation. I wonder if anyone can think of any additions?

The Underground (left) and No Romance.
By Aiden Grennelle who sez:
This week’s cover image is an homage to two former icons of Dublin’s street culture and music scene — both long gone, but never out of my mind. Noel and Jeff Brennan‘s The Underground on Dame Street was the spiritual home of indie during the mid-80s to the early 90s. Susan and Regine Moylett and Aongus Hanly‘s No Romance in the Dandelion Market on St Stephen’s Green was the spiritual home of punk during the late 70s and early 80s. Their logos have been 3D-printed as mini sculptural monuments in ultra vivid colours, a tribute to these two era-defining landmarks.

Dayum, girl.
Nearly €9 million [of public money] has been spent on providing two airstrips in West Connemara – both of which are now overgrown with no possibility being opened in the near future. The airstrips at Cleggan and on Inishbofin [above] were built more than five years ago but then plans to provide an air link between the two locations hit a brick wall through lack of funding. The airstrips are currently falling into a dilapidated state.

Too late.
Dr Peter Boylan responds to the eleven members of Opus Dei consultants that attacked his credibility yesterday.
The signatories then go on to assert their certainty that termination of pregnancy can be performed “where ruptured membranes are accompanied by any clinical or bio-chemical marker of infection”. This is a truly astonishing statement. It implies that an elevated white blood cell count, which is a non-specific marker of inflammation, on its own would justify a termination of pregnancy. Such an opinion would not surprisingly be welcomed by those advocating a complete liberalisation of the abortion law in Ireland because, if adopted, would truly “open the floodgates”. I suspect that many of our colleagues in active clinical practice would not subscribe to this view.
