Calvin & Hobbes creator Bill Watterson’s collaboraton with Stephan Pastis for his strip Pearls Before Swine – the famously reclusive artist’s first published comic work since Calvin & Hobbes finished (the only other piece is his poster for an upcoming documentary Stripped).
The collaboration, which Pastis describes as “A glimpse of Bigfoot“, was only revealed with the publication of the 3rd strip today.

The grounds of the former Bon Secours mother and baby home in Tuam, Co. Galway where it’s believed 796 infants may have been buried in a mass grave
RTÉ News is reporting that engineering firm, TST Engineering, has carried out a “subsurface radar examination” at the site of the former Bons Secours mother and baby home in Tuam, Co. Galway and that the results will be known within a few days.
The firm was hired by the Irish Mail on Sunday.
RTÉ reports:
“In a statement, the Irish Mail on Sunday confirmed the Ground Penetrating Radar analysis was conducted by TST Engineering.
‘Following consultation and ongoing co-operation with local historian Catherine Corless and the Children’s Home Graveyard Committee, the Irish Mail on Sunday commissioned a survey of the site of the alleged mass grave at the site of the former Tuam mother and baby home at the Dublin Road housing estate.’
‘The results will be analysed, and published in this Sunday’s edition of the Irish Mail on Sunday.’
“The newspaper said the results will also be ‘presented in full to the Committee, and made available in full to the Minister for Children if and when a state inquiry into the site is established’.”

‘Mellow- voiced Moloney’ to radio listeners of a certain age.
Barry H writes:
“To some of us he was, and always will be, the Moloney in 2fm’s ‘Moloney after Midnight’ the very decent late night music show that had a huge audience during the 1990s. Mike returns to Radio Nova on Sundays [11am-2pm]. For June Mike will be ‘reeling’ in the football years’ with music from World Cup Summers of yore….”
