Fifty of the world’s leading social innovators will gather in Dublin next month to help kick-start an ambitious plan to tackle key challenges facing the country.The idea behind Change Nation [launched today at government buildings with Enda Kenny and Helen McGuire, above] is to connect proven solutions with talent and finance to accelerate innovations in areas such as the environment, health, education, civic participation and economic development.

We have literally no idea what that means.

But we’re pretty stoked.

Officially.

The Supreme Court has delivered a landmark judgement upholding the constitutionality of a law that allows teenage boys – but not teenage girls – to be prosecuted for having underage sex.
The appeal arose from charges brought against a 15-year-old boy under the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Act 2006 for having sex with a 14-year-old girl in Donegal.
Under the 2006 Act “teenage boys can be held criminally liable for having sexual intercourse with an underage girl” while teenage girls are immune from prosecution.

 


Venerable balladeer Hugh Oliver sings what everyone over the age of 12 is thinking.

All together now:

‘It is reckoned that he’s hotter
Than Harry fucking Potter,
His hairdo like some wagging gold retriever,
Looking lovely, looking cute
In his pater-knity suit,
Our Justin, bloody Justin, bloody Bieber.’

From Business Insider:

An independent designer named Frederico Ciccarese has put together some beautiful iPhone 5 concept drawings.

Keep in mind that this is just one person’s interpretation of all the rumors we’ve been hearing non-stop since the 4S came out, but it looks pretty great to us.

They let in a hipster.
