Ah here.

Ronan Costello , of The Union of Students of Ireland, writes:

Attached is an image that was due to be used on posters and masks at a sleep out protest at the Dail this evening. Unfortunately, the Gardai revoked permission despite there being precedent for these protests. The protest was organised because thousands of students are still waiting on essential maintenance grants to come from SUSI, the new grant awarding agency. The 3% cut to the income threshold for the maintenance grant was also to be highlighted.

You?

Again.

As Broadsheet ricksmith John Moynes so sagely noted (in his classic August 2, 2012 Limerick):

Life’s coming apart at the seams,
For Senator Healy Eames.
By car or by train,
She can barely explain,
Her poorly planned cash-saving schemes,


Senator Fined For Repeatedly Driving Without Road Tax (Irish Independent)

What you may need to know:

1. Say hello to the best TV show you probably missed this year.

2. Enlightened was created by and co-starred Mike White, who did School Of Rock (2003) and the thoroughly unsettling Chuck & Buck (2000). Jonathan Demme directed a bunch of them.

3. Viewers may have been put off by Laura Dern playing the most irritating TV character since David Brent – but that was kind of the point. Stick with it, and it pays off.

4. The Big Question: Dylan McDermott or Dermot Mulroney?

5. What happened to Luke ‘brother of Owen’ Wilson? A decade ago he starred in Old School (2003), co-starring Vince Vaughan and Will Ferrell. Too many bad movies sealed his fate. There’s no coming back from My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006).

6. Other underappreciated 2012 TV shows you may have missed: Delocated, Lillyhammer and Sharon Horgan’s patchy but fun Dead Boss.

 

Release Date: Spring 2013
