"There's No One as Irish as Barack O'Bama" is a humorous folk song written in 2008 by the Irish band Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys[1] (later known as The Corrigan Brothers), and set to a tune derived from a traditional air.

Production and themes
Main Street, Moneygall where in Ollie Hayes' pub the song was first performed.

Obama's roots have been traced back to Moneygall in County Offaly, Ireland in the 19th century.[2] Moneygall has a population of 298 people.[3] Obama had previously remarked, "There's a little village in Ireland where my great-great-great grandfather came from and I'm looking forward to going there and having a pint," prompting the Irish Taoiseach Brian Cowen - also a native of County Offaly - to invite him to do so.[4]
The village of Moneygall (population 298) from which one of Obama's great-great-great grandfathers came

Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys consists of brothers Ger, Brian and Donnacha Corrigan from Castletroy, County Limerick.[5] The song was performed by the band's lead singer Ger Corrigan, with Aedhmar Flaherty, Róisín O'Brien and Aodhán Ryan, in Ollie Hayes's pub in Moneygall.[4] It was originally written by the established group in February 2008, and the group have since appeared on several Irish television and radio shows.[6] It has since been featured on MSNBC show Hardball with Chris Matthews.[5][7]

The song, which received huge publicity in America and was described as a "web hit" by the BBC,[2][5] became popular after being released on YouTube,[2] and as of 6 November 2008 it had over 50,000 hits, (80,000 by 10 November, 300,000 by 15 November, whilst Black's version had 700,000) and the band reported that they had been invited to perform in the anticipated victory celebrations for Obama, and at the Irish-American Democrats inauguration party in Washington in January 2009.[8]
Conflicts

Ger Corrigan alleged that Shay Black, brother of Irish musician Mary Black, "hijacked" the song and claimed a co-writing credit while failing to acknowledge Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys' authorship of the original version, a charge Black denied.[5][6][7]

It is very simple, he sent me an email in June asking if he could add some verses for a band camp he was holding … It was then posted on YouTube as if it had been written entirely by him - a claim repeated on his own website and by bloggers and national media. He never gave us any credit.... We demanded he take it down but he refused. This is a complete hijacking; if I add two verses to "Hey Jude" it doesn't mean I wrote it. To say we are not impressed is an understatement - this is pure opportunism.
—Band member Ger Corrigan in reference to Shay Black, as reported by the Limerick Leader.[5]

Both sides sought legal advice; the band contacted YouTube's solicitors as well as a copyright solicitor before announcing in a press release that the dispute had been resolved.[5][6][9]

Journalist Fintan O'Toole criticized the song in The Irish Times for "its ignorance of cultural history", claiming that it was inappropriate given Irish Americans' history of racism against African Americans, and that emphasizing Obama's Irish heritage would be "muscling in on his parade".[10] Canon Stephen Neill, the rector of Moneygall who accompanied the band on their American trip, responded that it was only a pop song, and that African Americans had universally welcomed them.[11]

Ger Corrigan later reported that the Corrigan Brothers had signed a deal with Universal for two singles and one album, with an option on a second album.[12][13]
Welcome Home President Barack O'Bama
Main article: List_of_presidential_trips_made_by_Barack_Obama_during_2011 § May

In March 2011, the Corrigan Brothers released a new version of their song for radio play to celebrate Barack Obama's visit to Ireland the following May. Entitled Welcome Home President Barack O'Bama, the song focused on Obama's visit to his ancestral home in Moneygall.[14]

The whole point of Cortana's voice is that it's a character from Halo series and voiced by Jen Taylor, not some british chick.

Agreed. I know Cortana has region specific features, but why not just lock those out, instead of her voice functionality? Seems dumb to me. They've tried to bundle in all the assistant features that a lot of people don't care about (I know I never use them) into the voice control functions, and then say "Oops, sorry. Can't let you use Cortana because the stuff you don't even use won't work.

I have had the Nokia 620 for nearly three years on PAYG and very happy with the phone so will be upgrading to a larger screen version when the price falls. Microsoft systems are certainly back on track and improving all the time, it’s what competition does when it works.

Stop. Just stop

http://i.imgur.com/Jh2PNM5.png

a few things:

1) I completely....completely forgot that McG was talking about a 'surreal' Terminator film in the early going until I re-read this thread. And I even remember the early trailers bearing that out. Then the film comes out and there's NONE of that at all, and it's just an action film with straightforward narrative and shots. What happened here? Did McG abandon the surrealist approach midway through? Does he not know what "surreal" means? idgi

2) Rewatched the first Terminator flick and although I've always loved it, the thing I appreciate the most is how it manages to be epic in scope w/out being epic in length. I've always enjoyed car chases in 60s-80s films more than today's because they overengineer them, but the car chases in this film are fantastic in their unhinged nature. I loved the chases in T2 as well, but they had a feeling of being more choreographed (a la Die Hard choreography w/ vehicles), which, while it was cool and all, paled in comparison to the off the wall recklessness of the chases in the original.

What was also cool is how it was believable in context. Reece has driven cars before, obviously, but only in battle. He's only used to driving recklessly, presumably he wouldn't even know what the traffic signals meant. and he grabs for his shotgun when he gets out of the car to face the cops not as a suicide mission but because he has no clue how the police operate and he's so battle tested, it's reflexive!

3) Unless I missed it, the term "Skynet" does not actually appear at all in the original Terminator. It's weird as I always remembered it being mentioned in Reece's monologue, but he only describes it in a roundabout way as being a project for NORAD.

4) The first Terminator was the best sheerly because it was the only film of the tetralogy not to have cyborgs exceeding their scope. T2 had Arnie acting like a curious robot trying to be human, which aggravated the shit out of me (oh yay, family friendly Terminator), whereas T3, while Arnie's robot was more grounded (except for the cringe-inducing humor and the psychoanalytic bullshit), you had the damn Loken-bot orgasming at John Connor's DNA, and having a look of fear upon her termination. bulllshiiiiit.

5) MVP for the first Terminator really goes to Arnold's facial expressions. Dude was never a great actor, but his face work in this film is actually pretty amazing - never over the top, always believable in the context of a cyborg attempting to assimilate into a society it's never seen before. the way his eyes bug out when he's processing something always wigged me out as a kid.

6) in a way, the later Terminator films kind of stretched the suspension of disbelief to the breaking point with the extra-sophisticated newer model Terminators. I get that they did this because hey, we have this big special effects budget now, let's Manhattan Project flex our muscles to the world, but i nthe context of the first film, you found it somewhat believable that humans could mount a resistance to the machines. The T-101, while difficult to destroy, was destroyed in the sense you'd expect - organically, through much wear and tear. It wasn't invincible, it was merely difficult to destroy given its extra-sensory abilities, and powerful chassis. In the future, against plasma weapons, I could see humans picking them off.

The T-1000 and the T-X, though, with their liquid metal bullshit? How the hell would the humans of the future stood a chance against an army of them? They could imitate more than voices, they could outright imitate other people!! In a way, it bugged me because my strategic brain enjoyed thinking of ways Hamilton and Biehn could off the T-101 in the original, and comparing it to how they actually managed to...whereas in the 2nd and 3rd, I was kinda like "idk what teh rules even are, how the hell WOULD you destroy one of these?"

I hope the additional films never get made.
