The pub that said NO.

I received a message this morning from the manager of The Parnell, via a journalist who had contacted him about yesterday’s post on broadsheet, saying that he couldn’t believe it when he saw the piece and believes the pub’s Facebook page was hacked and ‘someone is acting the fool’. Their official response is:
“Under no circumstances would I or anyone here @ the Parnell Heritage pub would even dream of putting up a response like that…if we didn’t have availability, it would have stated that & I would have asked her to call in, in person to discuss further. We are a new business in the area & have some great offers on (see Dealrush for current offer) & strive to exceed our customers expectations as you can see from reviews on Tripadvisor.”
They have offered us a complimentary bottle of prosecco & finger food for our inconvenience. My faith in common decency has been restored.

! was wondering if you could plug a site I’m heavily involved in? It’s a networking site set up to help people in the film/animation industry get work. we dont make any money off it, even thru ads. only set it up to help each other and friends initially on facebook but the group now has nearly 1600 members! thanks to an investor, we were able to secure a nice website with a forum, personalized profiles with links to all the users work online
(youtube, vimeo, linkedin, facebook etc etc) and its all for free! we’ve already got a few reasonably well known directors, actors and the like to join and are very happy to keep going in the spirit of free-ness and helping one another.

During an Asian Champions League quarter-final between Sepahan and Al Ahli at Iran’s Foolad Shahr Stadium, debris was thrown onto the pitch from the stands. As the referee and linesman inspected it, Sepahan midfielder Adel Kolahkaj picked up a chunk and tossed it to the sideline.
Turned out to be a grenade.
No one was hurt. After a brief security inspection, the game continued.
Final score 0-0.
Expertly hung.
