Blood tests ordered by his doctor revealed he had seven times the amount of vitamin D in his body than what is needed to stay healthy. The NHS advises people to take the recommended level of vitamin D - especially through the autumn and winter when it is hard to get enough from sun exposure. ‌The NHS recommends that everyone over 1 year old considers taking a daily 10 microgram or 400 IU vitamin D supplement from October to March.

For the last 27 years, he has run O’Donovan’s pub in downtown Minneapolis — one of the last Irish-owned Irish pubs here. There’s barely any traffic on the roads and footfall was slow when the Irish Examiner visited O’Donovan’s late last week. Mr Barnwell adds: “There’s not many Irish illegals here, so what’s happening now isn’t having that direct an impact. People mourn at a makeshift memorial in the area where 37-year-old Alex Pretti was shot dead by federal immigration agents earlier in the day in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Saturday. Regardless of the reasons behind ICE descending in such numbers on the city, it’s happening now and nobody knows how long it will last.

An international group of plaintiffs sued US tech firm Meta Platforms alleging that the company has made false claims about the privacy and security of its WhatsApp chat service. However, in a lawsuit filed in US District Court in San Francisco, the group of plaintiffs allege that Meta’s privacy claims are false. They allege that Meta and WhatsApp “store, analyze, and can access virtually all of WhatsApp users’ purportedly ‘private’ communications” — and accuse the companies and their leaders of defrauding WhatsApp’s billions of users worldwide. A spokesperson for Meta, which acquired WhatsApp in 2014, called the lawsuit “frivolous” and said that the company “will pursue sanctions against plaintiffs’ counsel.”“Any claim that people’s WhatsApp messages are not encrypted is categorically false and absurd,” spokesperson Andy Stone said in an email. “WhatsApp has been end-to-end encrypted using the Signal protocol for a decade.

Patrick Reed kept his cool to complete a comfortable four-shot victory at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic. A conservative front nine saw him card eight pars and a bogey as David Puig halved the deficit thanks to birdies at the eighth and ninth. Reed finally found his first birdie at the 10th, but playing partner Puig rolled in his third in a row at the same hole to remain a threat. However, Reed regained his four-shot lead when he birdied the 13th and his Spanish playing partner bogeyed the same hole. "Instead of keeping my foot on the gas early, I tried to protect that four-shot lead and then David goes and birdied eight and nine, and shut it down to two.

Galway were 2-15 to 0-11 down at one stage and staring at a heavy defeat but they drove one relentlessly and in the maelstrom unsettled a dominant Mayo. Second half goals from newcomer Darragh Beirne and substitute Cian McHale gave Mayo leeway after Aidan O'Shea first half goal had helped them to a 1-12 to 0-9 interval lead. But Fionn McDonagh, impressive on his debut, and another debutant Shane McGrath hit back with goals to give Galway hope. Hennelly's recall was justified with a series of fine saves and three converted two-point frees, one from 60 metres in the first half. Galway were without Matthew Tierney, Cein D'Arcy, Cillian McDaid, John Maher, Damien Comer and Cillian McDaid while Shane Walsh only came off the bench so there is scope for improvement with the return of personnel alone in the weeks ahead.
