Studenty Sunday: Book-Learnin’ Edition
Every week Roisin Peddle takes a look at the stories that made the headlines here at Studenty.me this week… We put on our mortar-boards here at Studenty Towers this week, which means only one thing… It’s coming towards the end of another academic year and all that much nearer exams. Here are ten to make you laugh and think this Sunday. 1. Speaking of exams, they can’t be avoided. (Unless you’re an Arts student, boom boom). Jane Kearns arms you with the A to Z of exams. 2. Ever get [...]
Studenty Sunday: Life Lessons Edition
Every Sunday Roisin Peddle takes a look at the top ten stories that made the headlines this week on Studenty. 2012 might be ancient at this stage but it doesn’t mean that we here in Studenty have forgotten about New Year self-improvement. Among our top ten stories are nuggets of golden, crispy wisdom… 1. The actress Maria Doyle Kennedy and Kevin Kennedy recently played a gig in Kinsale. Tom McCarthy found it an almost religious experience… 2. Ireland lost one of its most impassioned campaigners recently with the death of [...]
Tragedy at Egyptian Soccer Game: Over 70 Killed in Riots
At least 70 people have been killed in riots following a soccer match in the Egyptian city of Port Said. Fans of Al-Masri, who beat their rivals Al-Ahly 3-1, launched a pitch invasion amid a lax security presence. They are believed to have thrown missiles and chased players and officials from the field. There are reports that upwards of 1000 people could have been injured in the incident. Fans from both teams clashed after the initial invasion and they stormed the dressing rooms. The Egyptian deputy health minister, Hesham Sheiha, called it “the [...]
“If Liverpool have a soul buddy in Scottish football then it would certainly be Celtic,” says O’Rourke
They call it the Celtic roar. We couldn’t believe our luck when the tickets arrived. My first Glasgow derby. The pact would be worth every pound (to drink a pint of Tennent’s Lager in the local). I had never tasted alcohol before. I was just shy of 21. The night arrived and we boarded the train to Paradise. The first game was a thriller; would the second be a sequel? We found our seats and waited excitedly as the players soaked up the atmosphere. Cameras rolled on by, the clock [...]
Hope, Heartache, Hope Once Again. A Review of Ireland’s Sporting Year
Sport transcended itself in 2011 for this small island country. It became more than a form of entertainment, it became hope, transubstantiated into Katie Taylor’s boxing glove, Richard Dunne’s boots, and Sean O’Brien’s hands as we watched him steamroll yet another unfortunate opponent. Barrack Obama came to Ireland at the end of May, and he told us something most of us needed to hear. “Is féidir linn”, or for non gaelgoirs, “Yes We Can”. Of course, Leinster already knew that. It must have been their mantra when, three days before [...]
Munster win fourth consecutive Heineken Cup group game with victory over Scarlets
MUNSTER stood firm against a spirited Scarlets fightback to take the spoils in their fourth Heineken Cup pool game, and emerging with their fourth consecutive win in the competition. It took a second half try from Munster’s James Coughlan to bring Thomond Park in an otherwise relatively lacklustre game, with the Scarlets providing stiff opposition for the men in red. Ronan O’Gara was first on target for the Munster men, slotting over two penalties, with Stephen Jones replying with a well-taken penalty for the Scarlets. The Munster defence were kept [...]
