Javier Hernandez describes main difference between playing for Man Utd and Real Madrid
He was surprisingly loaned to Real Madrid in 2014, but failed to make much of an impression, scoring just nine goals in his solitary season at the Bernabeu. It’s just a description, you know how the way of life in England is a little bit more calm, a little bit more close, a little bit more in that way. "In United I never felt in the outside that it was completely as massive as it really was. But you know not many fans outside, not many press, not leaking news, you can walk a lot in Manchester, they respect you more. (Image: Reuters)"In Spain they respect you but they are more like my country they want things from you they want the picture they want to grab you."

Without the tourists, the Galway Market is a very different place to shop
For the first Saturday in decades, you can see from the top of the Galway Market to the end of it. The narrow thoroughfare which runs the length of Churchyard Street adjacent to St Nicholas’s and up Market Street becomes a big part of the sight, sound and taste of the Galway city weekend experience. “You don’t get as much of that any more because local people stopped using the market in a big way because it is so jammed with tourists. And I am hopeful now that people will start coming to see the market as a real local market, and a more substantial, real experience too. That is how we are really serving the community, not just by serving tourists or Airbnb guests.

Two gardaí posted to Americas to tackle international crime and terrorism
Two gardaí are being posted to the United States and South America to work with overseas police forces in tackling internationally-operating organised crime gangs and terrorists. They will bring to six the number in the overseas Garda liaison officer network, with officers already posted in London, Paris, Madrid and the Hague. Minister for Justice Charlie Flanagan said the expansion of the overseas network followed a request from Garda Commissioner Drew Harris for the extra posts to be created. “The increasingly global character of organised crime and terrorism necessitates deep international co-operation among police and law enforcement agencies around the world,” Mr Flanagan said, announcing Government approval for the new roles. “The overseas liaison officer network is a key element of An Garda Síochána’s approach to combating international criminal and terrorist organisations.”Mr Flanagan said the new roles will enable practical co-operation with police overseas and co-ordination of operations across borders.

Pope Francis warns about the dangers of 'pessimism' as world emerges from lockdown
During Mass in St Peter's Basilica, Vatican City, to mark Pentecost Sunday, Francis departed from a prepared script - speaking of how people are more important than the economy as countries prepare to reopen. 'Healing people, not saving (money) to help the economy (is important), healing people, who are more important than the economy. We people are temples of the Holy Spirit, the economy is not,' Francis said. While the Vatican has reopened the basilica to tourists, the rank-and-file faithful are still not allowed to attend Masses celebrated by the Pope to avoid crowding. Francis led the crowd in silent prayer for medical workers who lost their lives by helping others.

Maureen Dowd: If Donald Trump no longer tweets, does he even exist?
You could answer the existential question of whether @realDonaldTrump even exists if he doesn’t exist on Twitter. Tribal frictionTrump constantly torques up the tribal friction and cruelty, even as Twitter and Facebook refine their systems to ratchet up rage. It is amazing that a septuagenarian became the greatest exploiter of social media. He signed an executive order that might strip liability protection from social media sites, which would mean they would have to more assiduously police false and defamatory posts. If Twitter can be sued for what people say on it, how can Trump continue to torment?

The 20-year-old graduate was knocked back from all the marketing jobs he applied for, including one handing out Red Bull cans.

He finally landed two clients and set up Social Media Mansion - one of Australia's first social media marketing agencies.
