From Time magazine’s recent collection of previously unpublished photos of the great Johnny Cash in his late 20s.
Cash, who died in 2003, would have been 80 last month.

Guess we know who that “unnamed Irish official” official is now.
CENTRAL BANK governor Patrick Honohan is expected to raise the possibility of delaying a cash payment of €3.1 billion to the former Anglo Irish Bank on March 31st and suggest alternatives at the meeting of European Central Bank decision-makers today.
Options being considered to delay the cash payment include a payment-in-kind by way of a Government bond or another promissory note until a long-term restructuring of the notes is concluded.
Notes for notes. Totes not notes for votes.
We’ll get our cotes.

Mitt Romney extended his delegate lead in the Republican presidential race with victories in five Super Tuesday states, giving him a measured dose of momentum as he tries to tighten his grip on the GOP nomination.
But in a continued sign of strong opposition to Romney in the GOP’s conservative base, he was unable to stop Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich from claiming Super Tuesday successes of their own.
An ‘experiment for a college project’ by 2008 Youtuber Jerry Hatt, who claimed it was his first attempt at such a thing.

Not all that bad.

Slavina Velvova and two-year-old daughter Tsveta from Bulgaria at the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, Dublin, this afternoon, to see the most expensive coin in the world. The 1933 Double Eagle is probably the most valuable half ounce of gold in the world.
The coin at IMMA (above) until tomorrow is one of just two 1933 Double Eagles saved by the US Mint (nearly all were melted down when the gold standard ended). In 2002, a 1933 Double Eagle sold for $7.59 million dollars.

“The incident arose when Cllr Durcan questioned how Tim Hastings Ltd was granted planning permission to build a new garage along the N5 outside Westport in 2004, five months after it had been refused planning permission for the same project at the same location.
Tim Hastings is the brother-in-law of Cllr [Henry] Kenny and the Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Cllr Durcan made reference to this in the chamber.
“We are talking about the Taoiseach’s brother-in-law and Cllr Kenny’s brother-in-law and I want to know what happened in the five months to change the mind of the County Manager ” he said.”
And then there’s this
“The application was not appealed to An Bord Pleanála by the NRA at the time and in a letter seen by The Mayo News in August 2006, the NRA stated they did not appeal the decision to ABP because of ‘staffing issues’ over the Christmas period.”
Hmm.

This, etc.
Thanks Ciaran le Cool
A vision.
Quite literally.
We are delighted to receive instructions to sell this prestigious home known as “Providence Villa” in the heart of Knock Village, County Mayo. This 7 bedroom executive type home has certainly got the “wow” factor. As you drive-up kerb side, this home has buckets of kerb appeal.
