This afternoon.
Director of Commercial and Marketing at Bohemians FC Daniel Lambert tweetz:
A year ago today I was stressed as f*ck, funny looking back, acted 100% correctly which was later acknowledged, six-figure sales in 8 hours, we would have made millions…
Still the league’s best-selling shirt ever & truly global publicity.
Like winning the Lotto & losing the ticket.

Concert promoter Peter Aiken at Dublin’s RDS last year
This afternoon.
Robert MacNamara, in the Echo, reports:
Concert promoter Peter Aiken has said is he is unaware that developers plan to begin work on the Live at the Marquee site at the end of next summer, bringing the long-running concert series to an end.
Speaking to the Echo this morning, the man who has brought the likes of Brian Wilson, Elton John and Bob Dylan to the tent at the docklands since it’s first staging in 2005 said he has not been in contact with site owners Glenveagh Properties about plans for the site’s development.
…Up to 1,000 homes are expected to be built on the land.
Responding to news being reported in the local media this morning that 2020 will be the last year of the much-loved concert series, Mr Aiken said: “I haven’t heard that, I don’t know anything about it.”

The art (and science) of biologist David Goodsell (what are the chances?): to wit, molecular level depictions of biological processes, cellular structures and viruses like HIV, Ebola and Zika. Of his process, Goodsell sez:
Since the early 1990s, I have been working with a type of illustration that shows portions of living cells magnified so that you can see individual molecules. I try to make these illustrations as accurate as possible, using information from atomic structure analysis, electron microscopy, and biochemical analysis to get the proper number of molecules, in the proper place, and with the proper size and shape.
