And Finally...

A follow-up on an earlier report where people wondered how long it would take to get out of hand. The answer: Not long.

Changes are on the horizon for the live portal between Dublin and New York City following instances of Manhattan residents being bombarded with images of 9/11 and adult content displayed on mobile phone screens.

An unpleasant turn took place late Saturday night as yet another anti-social incident unfolded on the Irish side of the camera, featuring everything from bared bottoms to displays of hateful swastikas. It was just a few hours after the May 8th launch that an incident led to a woman's arrest by An Garda Siochana when she bizarrely decided to grind her posterior against the portal - she's expected to make a court appearance in the coming weeks.

The renowned New York Post didn't hold back, labelling the installation as the "portal to hell" while directing a fiery message at the locals - "keep your arses in your trousers".

...

The portal's location at the junction of O'Connell St and North Earl St had already sparked criticism, with many pointing out the area is a known spot for anti-social activity. University lecturer Patrick Stafford told RTE's Liveline: "It was very obvious that thing was going to happen."

Here is the 911 incident.
