This afternoon.

The battle is now between Fine Gael’s Deirdre Clune (110,085 votes) and the Green Party’s Grace O’Sullivan (114,287 votes) for Mr Wallace’s transfers to secure the fourth seat.

The fifth and final seat – the so-called Brexit seat – is only taken up when the UK leaves the European Union.

Mark Hennessy

Via Paul Reynolds of RTÉ News:

The garda who shot dead the man who abducted and killed Jastine Valdez last year will not face criminal charges.

Mark Hennessy kidnapped and murdered the 24-year-old student as she walked to her home in Co Wicklow in May last year.

He then dumped her body off Puck’s Castle Lane in south county Dublin.

The case was investigated by the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission.

A file was sent to the DPP, who has decided the garda was not to be prosecuted.

Sligo based filmmaker Paraic McGloughlin’s blistering hyper-edit video for ‘Someday’ by Dutch electronica duo Weval. Count the cuts (no, don’t, you’ll get a headache). 

You may recall Paraic’s excellent kaleidoscopic abstract (shot from a road bridge in Sligo) for Max Cooper last year.

Full screen recommended.

Behold the 1963 Apollo 3500 GT Spider – Californian auto designer Milt Brown’s elegant retort to the all-conquering Ferrari and Aston Martin Grand Tourers of the 1950s and 60s.

Powered by a 3.5-litre Buick V8 with coachwork by Frank Reisner’s Torino-based Intermeccanica, only 42 original Apollos were ever made before production ceased and this – the first convertible – is one of them.

Up for auction soon (without reserve).
