Gardai come to the rescue of Dublin fox found trapped in fencing during routine patrol

GARDAI CAME to the rescue of a stricken fox in Dublin over the weekend. While Garda officers are no strangers to people getting themselves into all kinds of bother on a night out, animals are an altogether different story. As a rule, foxes tend to keep well clear of humans – there’s a fair bit of history between the two sides. However, that wasn’t an option for one stricken Reynard over in Ballyfermot, Dublin. It was during a routine patrol of the area that officers were alerted to the animal’s plight. Advertisement Upon closer inspection, they found a fox completely stuck in a bit of metal fencing close to the roadside. The animal appeared to be in some distress too and, try as he might, was unable to get himself free. Thankfully, Gardai were on hand to deal with the situation. Recent weeks have seen the officers tasked with any number of duties aimed at helping people in the wider community and lifting spirits as a whole. This particular incident may have differed slightly, but the officers involved nevertheless…

The Cranberries' hit 'Zombie' named among list of Spotify's 'Top 50 Lockdown Songs'

THE CRANBERRIES’ iconic hit Zombie has been named on a list of the Top 50 most popular songs to listen to during lockdown. A total of 500 public Spotify lockdown playlists have been analysed as part of research commissioned by Delight Counselling, with some 31,562 songs sorted through as part of the study. Interestingly, the findings showed that 70% of the top 50 artists were male, 24% were female and just 6% were bands with both male and females. The Cranberries were among the latter, with the band’s 1994 hit Zombie coming in at a credible 17th on the countdown. The top 50 songs have ranked by the number of times they appeared in the public playlists. Advertisement In some instances, some songs appeared the same number of times, this resulted in a tie. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Bee Gees topped the list with their disco hit Stayin’ Alive, which featured on no fewer than 44 different lockdown playlists. Aside from The Cranberries, however, there was little in the way of an Irish presence on the list with the…

Footage of Leo Varadkar meeting friends and enjoying sun in Phoenix Park during lockdown sparks fury online

LEO VARADKAR has denied any breach of Ireland’s COVID-19 restrictions after pictures surfaced on social media of the Taoiseach meeting up with friends in Phoenix Park. Mr. Varadkar was photographed enjoying the sunshine with his partner Matthew Barrett and two other friends in the popular Dublin Park. Gardai can be seen walking near Mr. Varadkar’s group but do not appear to have been deployed to assist or support the Taoiseach in any way. The images, which were captured this past Sunday afternoon, have sparked debate online over whether the Taoiseach is in breach of the social distancing rules in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Under the government rules, groups of four are permitted to meet outside. Advertisement However, they are restricted from travelling further than 5km from their homes and groups must remain two metres apart from anyone they are not currently residing with. Phoenix Park is roughly eight kilometres from Mr. Varadkar’s apartment on Carpenterstown Road in the Dublin West constituency.…

Efficient generation of relativistic near-single-cycle mid-infrared pulses in plasmas

Intense few-cycle optical pulses in the mid-infrared region are of great importance yet difficult to obtain with normal optical materials and techniques. To deal with this challenge, scientists in China and the UK proposed a scheme by use of plasma as a nonlinear optical medium, which can efficiently generate relativistic multi-millijoule near-single-cycle mid-infrared pulses at ~5 microns. This technique can be realized with available terawatt-class kHz lasers, bringing new opportunities in high-field and ultrafast science.

A natural amino acid could be a novel treatment for polyglutamine diseases

Researchers from Osaka University, National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, and Niigata University identified the amino acid arginine as a potential disease-modifying drug for polyglutamine diseases, including familial spinocerebellar ataxia and Huntington disease. Using various mice models of polyglutamine diseases, they showed that arginine prevents polyglutamine protein aggregation, improves motor function and suppresses neurodegeneration of mice. The results of this study could facilitate the clinical use of arginine for polyglutamine diseases that are, to date, incurable.

PYMNTS identified five areas and companies to watch as the post-pandemic recovery evolves. Amazon The balance of 2020 will be notable for what Amazon does not do. For instance, it will not buy JCPenney. The reason cuts right through Amazon's strikezone: The company has always been about the customer experience and customer satisfaction. JCP doesn't have much to offer Amazon in terms of customers. On the inventory side, Amazon has always taken one step up and two steps back on fashion, which is a tough margin to run on. In terms of real estate, JCP still has some decent mall locations, but not enough to justify what would be a very risky acquisition. If Amazon sees any M&A deals this year, it will likely be on the
