“Thought you might like to see another shot from the Sinead O’Connor shoot I did a few weeks ago. She’s looking really good nowadays and great fun to work with. Most of the wardrobe we used was hers. This shot will be used for her first single which will be released the same day as the album ‘I’m Not Bossy, I’m The Boss’ on August 12th…PS.Doubtless my HDR fans will scream “photoshopped to hell” but they’d be wrong….”

When asked why no one wanted to appear on camera she said:
“Because now we’re being called racists which we’re horrified. We’re actually embarrassed about it. We’re certainly not racists, certainly not.”

“From his account, it was certainly a peaceful protest and there was no threat issued to him. There isn’t any indication that they sought to intimidate him.
I’m not sure that this can be described as racism in terms of what the intention of the local people was.
You might have had exactly the same reaction if it was somebody from up-country that was moving into an area where local people aren’t able to get houses in the locality that they’ve been brought up in.” NI First Minister Peter Robinson.

Yesterday:
Lord Mayor of Dublin Christy Burke is to seek support for a motion blocking any British royal presence at 1916 Rising commemoration events.
Mr Burke, who left Sinn Féin to become an Independent councillor in 2009, said he was unconcerned about what signals the move would send to the UK, given the stature of his office.Rather, he said, his belief that any royal participation would be inappropriate was a reflection of what he had heard from the public.

Today:
Mr Burke told RTÉ’s Morning Ireland that he just wanted to ensure no royals were placed in front row positions when the celebrations take place.
Mr Burke said:“I’m asking the Taoiseach if he would consider not putting any members of the royal family in the front row or strategic positions during the 2016 commemorative, given the fact that relatives of men and women of 1916 have yet to be told that they will be even in attendance.”

Shane sez:
“When I moved from Waterford to Dublin the thing I loved about Dublin the most was that it was always busy. There is always something to do and always people coming and going. I’m a big fan of old video games and spent many hours playing Sonic and Streets of Rage over and over, so the pixel style sort of came from that influence.”
