EACH WEEKDAY EVENING, TheJournal.ie brings you five stories you really should check out by 5pm.
1. #NORRIS: Senator David Norris confirmed this afternoon that he will no longer seek a nomination for the Presidency 2011. Read his full statement here, or listen to it in MP3 format and Twitter’s instant reaction to the news.
2. #EZRA NAWI: Presidential hopeful Michael D Higgins and Senator Mark Daly have told TheJournal.ie that they were not aware of Ezra Nawi’s conviction for statutory rape when they backed a David Norris motion in a joint committee meeting in 2009 in support of Nawi. That motion related to a “human rights” issue, said Higgins, in which Nawi was accused of attacking Israeli defence forces.
3. #TIGER KIDNAPPING: Gardai are investigating a tiger kidnapping in Co Louth last night. An official of An Post, his partner and their child were abducted from their home in the Drogheda area at 10pm, held elsewhere and the man forced to go to a post office and hand over money to the gang.
4. #FAIRVIEW: The controversial Players Lounge pub in Fairview, Dublin has been robbed by a gang of four, a staff member tied up – and then the premises was set on fire. The owner of the pub was charged with making a demand with menaces on another pub earlier this year and in March he put a banner outside the Lounge, telling Queen Elizabeth II she wasn’t welcome to drink there. Last year, a man was shot in the head outside the pub.
5. #CLASH: Cardinal Seán Brady has written to GAA leaders in Armagh, Louth, Derry and Tyrone to ask officials to stop scheduling GAA games at the same time as Sunday Mass.

Another tool for the narcissist generation
Just because you can’t afford one?
I’d say you’re they type to wear sunglasses inside Aidan
Sunglasses indoors, par for the course.
Aidan = D4 Muppet
The app is free, I reckon Stephen could splash out on a free app and as he just posted comments to another smart phone app I am also thinking there is a chance he owns a smart phone.
Indeed Love Guinness……but then, Stephens smart phone is most likely smarter than Stephen.
Cost more Al Cal
scope me later ya.
You loo like a desperate tool Kelly
Apple are to release there version soon called endoscope…. Although it will likely be a pain in the ads to use
They should release endascope too so everyone can see through the eyes of a winner!
Eyes of a donkey :-D
“They should release endascope too so everyone can see through the eyes of a winner!”
So…..that’s not a tan you’re sporting.
You are by far the most irritating shinnerbot on TheJournal Aidan, congrats.
They do have one its call an Endoscopy, that when they’ll look in your ass Aidan and to see where your intellect has gone
You can see the difference at contrastthemeerkat.com
Skype?

Crazy Ivan? Or maybe that’s Crimson Tide.

Ah it’s just the obvious progression for the huge proportion of the online populace that think because they can, they should.
Most have nothing interesting to say anyway, this is like porn for them.
Funny enough, I didn’t hear anybody talking about it.
Up Periscope !
It’s a perfectly designed instantly accessible broadcasting device with massive potential. We’ll be using it with our students. If you’re already with twitter it’s seamless. Is miles ahead if competitors like meerkat etc. Try it! http://www.connemaramathsacademy.com
Should have said ‘app’ instead of device.
To what end will this prove useful though?
Have a read of this article, will answer that question http://www.theverge.com/2015/3/26/8296537/explosion-east-village-periscope-live
