Monday is my aeroplane… it’s my aeroplane… em… Make links go now!

• Aer Lingus have confirmed orders for some new planes. Among them are the A350-900s not due to enter service until 2013, pictured above. No A380s, unfortunately.
• Maybe you’ve seen the tv ad campaign on for it at the moment; yourlocal.ie. An almighty virtual earth mashup with local Irish listings. It’s a bit clunky, but the idea is sound.
• CO2.ie is a very shiny new environmental site. They have a blog among other things. And they point to this handy sustainable energy Ireland web site where you can check your car’s CO2 rating.
• Stricter controls on junk food advertising can only be a good thing.
• No doubt it’ll be removed from YouTube as it shows full frontal nudity, but trust me, you don’t really want to watch a video of 3 guys in Dublin running down the road naked while shouting Leeroy Jenkins do you? What do you mean you don’t know who Leeroy Jenkins is?
• Arse contracts in Belfast.
• Apparently this video is to be projected onto buildings during Bud Rising 2008. Umm. Maybe it’ll look cooler projected onto buildings?
• Anonymous were back protesting against Scientology on April 12th in Dublin: Video.

Surely some sort of first for Irish chippers, K.C. Chippers in Cork, as well as having a bat-shit crazy web site, have a queue cam where you can get a live shot of the queue right now.

Fair fucking play to them.

UCC’s student magazine Motley are running a competition with a difference that will see 10 UCC students battle it out for the title of UCC’s Top Model.

The magazine, which sought applicants throughout the month of September 2007, have now chosen ten finalists - five girls and five boys - who will battle it out over the next five months to win the title of UCC’s Top Model - along with a much coveted contract with Cork based modeling agency Lockdown Events & Model Management.

There’s a second video too. Wow, screw Tyra Banks, this is the real deal.

More: Motley, the UCC student paper web site has the details on the competition, but it’s been disturbingly quiet since January.

Currently flying around emails all over the country:
