Forget those sepia-tone images of Dublin. The prewar city of James Joyce is, of course, long gone. Even the mid-’90s seems a distant memory on Moore Street. Dublin today is the base of an immigration surge that is transforming Ireland at a rate un-paralleled in speed and scale anywhere in Europe. And that has made the Emerald Isle a test case for how Europe will deal with one of its greatest dilemmas–the need for, and discomfort with, immigrant labor....
Within the past nine days, Murphy has captured drone footage of not one, not two, but three ancient logboats submerged in a short stretch of the 70-mile River Boyne. Stephen Davis, a professor at University College Dublin, called the initial discovery “a really nice find” in an interview with The Irish Times. Based on his assessments of the footage, Davis said that he has few, if any, doubts about the accuracy of the ID....

Rather than opt for Juventus, where he was fancied as the long-term heir to Claudio Marchisio and Sami Khedira, the 23-year-old signed a five-year deal with Bayern Munich to become the Bundesliga’s most expensive player ever, at over €40 million, and fill the boots of the retiring Xabi Alonso. “I think that Tolisso has a good profile to replace a player like Alonso,” Ancelotti said upon the Frenchman’s arrival. “He is a really complete midfielder, good passing, forward, really well positioned defensively and also in my opinion [has] a lot of opportunity to improve....
The “defund the police” movement backed by some demonstrators proposes taking money away from law enforcement so it can be reinvested in black community projects and initiatives aimed at improving education, healthcare and other amenities. Responding to the call from protesters, the Minneapolis City Council unveiled plans to disband its local police force, with the council’s Democratic president saying the radical change would “re-create systems of public safety that actually keep us safe....
The network will not air a new installment of SNL on Saturday but, rather, air a previously recorded episode as the show takes a mini-hiatus. SNL is expected to return to NBC with Chicago native Chance the Rapper serving double-duty as host and musical guest on October 26. Chance’s upcoming appearance will mark his second time on the SNL stage after he hosted the show nearly a year ago during Season 44....
With Kendall Jenner and George Clooney touting their own tequila brands, Peyton Manning’s top-rated Tennessee bourbon, and Ryan Reynolds’ gin, a new collaboration hits the market: Arby’s Smoked Bourbon. The bourbon launch follows the November 2021 launch of the restaurant’s 80-proof vodka which was inspired by their signature curly fries. The new bourbon is smoked for 13 in an Arby’s Smokehouse Brisket, which gives the spirit hints of hickory, mesquite, and pecan wood, according to the media release....
MORE: Lionel Messi’s magic, in images | Cisse’s sex scandal The same story could be told about George Best, Garrincha, Rene Houseman or any of football’s most celebrated party animals. Houseman, the wizard out wide for Argentina in 1978, insists that he scored the greatest goal of his career in that same decade while playing against River. The problem was, the winger was almost paralytic, and as the alcohol left his body the memory of that strike also faded away to a hazy specter....
Trump ultimately was defeated by Obama’s vice president, Joe Biden, a closer confidant than Clinton and an even more loyal defender of his old boss’ record. But the manner of Trump’s departure from the White House, in a bitterly contested election in which the 45th president expanded his base after four tumultuous years tainted by scandal, impeachment and calamity, suggested Obama’s ambitions suffered a setback, too. Obama, who campaigned fiercely for Biden as he did in 2016 for Clinton, his former secretary of state, viewed his own presidency as a turning point for the United States, rather like Ronald Reagan’s three decades earlier or John F....

In a survey conducted by Barrett Sports Media, a sports media consulting company, 60.8 percent of respondents said the network has a “left-leaning agenda.” Only 3 percent said ESPN tilts right politically. Still, a significant portion of respondents — 36.2 percent — believe ESPN is neutral. Or they couldn’t detect bias. The majority of the 1,363 people who completed the survey March 7-14 were “sports media consumers,” said Jason Barrett, owner of Barrett Sports Media....
The iconic crime show has starred Mark Harmon in the role of special agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs since it first began back in 2003, but the actor will have a much more limited part in the forthcoming season. Season 18 ended with a dramatic explosion that saw Gibbs get “killed off” when his boat was destroyed, only to reveal he in the last moments of the finale that he had managed to swim away from the wreckage....
A month ago, as Hillary Clinton’s campaign neared what were then billed as the make-or-break primaries in Texas and Ohio, Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell wondered if his state, scheduled to vote on April 22, was in for “six weeks of peace” or “six weeks of hell.” The answer, as anyone who has played human Ping-Pong between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia lately, became clear once Clinton won Ohio and the primary portion of the Texas ‘primacaucus’ system, snarling the delegate math and forcing the race for the Democratic nomination into its fourth month....
The software, owned by video game publisher Epic Games, has enjoyed a surge in popularity during COVID-19-related lockdowns and quarantines, but rumors surfaced this week that the app had been linked to the hacking of Netflix, Spotify, Snapchat and even personal bank accounts. Houseparty’s developers stressed accounts are safe and the service is “secure, has never been compromised, and doesn’t collect passwords for other sites.” In a statement, the company said it would offer a reward for proof the speculation had been started intentionally - although did not reveal further information about the claim....
Downdetector, a site that offers real-time status and outage information on services around the web, saw a spike in complaints of Instagram being inaccessible. Issues were reported in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Mexico, and other countries. With over 1 billion monthly users, stats report that around 12.9 percent of humanity checks into Instagram monthly—the equivalent of the total population of Europe and North America combined. By 2025, it is estimated that there will be 1....
NOT ALL THESE questions have easy answers. But here’s a guide to some of the frequently asked questions about the legal challenges still roiling the race for the White House. What will the U.S. Supreme Court hearing decide? The U.S. Supreme Court heard an appeal from the Bush campaign over the Florida Supreme Court’s decision to extend the deadline for hand recounts of the state’s votes by nine days–from Nov....
NBA League Pass: Sign up to unlock live out-of-market games (7-day free trial) Ahead of their thrilling 112-110 road loss against the Brooklyn Nets, Thibodeau revealed that he’s not only removing Kemba Walker from the starting lineup, but the rotation altogether “as of right now.” The immediate results have paid dividends. Walker has appeared in 18 games this season but has been a shadow of himself. In 24.5 minutes a night, he’s averaging career-lows of 11....
Until last week the eccentricities of the global superstar sounded pretty harmless. Then word leaked out that the Los Angeles Police Department was investigating allegations that Jackson had sexually abused a 13-year-old boy. Whether or not charges will be brought—and the evidence by the end of the week was not conclusive—this is the kind of accusation that leaves a nasty stain, no matter what, and could bring down the biggest pop star in America since Elvis....
“Baseball is already losing tremendous numbers of fans, and now they leave Atlanta with their All-Star Game because they are afraid of the Radical Left Democrats who do not want voter I.D., which is desperately needed, to have anything to do with our elections,” Trump said in a statement issued by his Save America PAC. “Boycott baseball and all of the woke companies that are interfering with Free and Fair Elections....
In the second season, the team was coached by David Platt and had a flying start to their season as they thumped Mumbai City 3-1 in the Maharashtra derby. But, their form went southwards in the business end of the season as they lost five and drew three in their last eight matches to finish second last. In 2016, although they signed Barcelona and Iceland legend Eidur Gudjohnsen as their marquee player, a pre-season injury meant he wouldn’t play a part in the tournament....
