A transatlantic live video "portal" between Dublin and New York City&nbsp;resumed operations after being shut down due to incidents of misconduct. The portal, which allows real-time interaction between individuals in both cities, had to be temporarily closed less than a week after its launch.

Dublin City Council announced that the live stream would now operate during specific hours, from 11:00 to 21:00 local time in Dublin and from 06:00 to 16:00 EDT in New York. The portal will not be working 24/7.

The portal, a project by Lithuanian artist Benediktas Gylys, features large circular screens in both cities aimed at fostering a sense of connection between distant places.

However, reports emerged of users engaging in inappropriate behavior, including displaying swear words, flashing body parts, and even broadcasting footage of the 9/11 attacks.

After the updates to the portal were made, organisers issued a joint statement saying that the portal is not meant to be touched or stepped upon and announced measures to prevent such incidents, including triggering a blurring of the livestream if the camera lens is obstructed.

"If individuals step on the Portal and obstruct the camera, it will trigger a blurring of the livestream for everyone on both sides of the Atlantic. The team will continue making updates as needed to ensure that everyone can continue to enjoy the Portal," the organiser said.&nbsp;

Dublin-New York live streaming 'portal' reopens after updates

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters clashed with the officers of the New York Police Department (NYPD) in Brooklyn on Saturday (May 18), which reportedly led to over 30 arrests.

<h2>Protesters and police clash in Brooklyn&nbsp;</h2>

Chaos erupted at a pro-Palestinian rally in the Bay Ridge neighbourhood in Brooklyn where a group of at least 250 people were protesting the Israeli military’s offensive in Gaza.&nbsp;

In various videos posted on social media of the rally, NYPD officers can be seen punching at least three people who were wrestled to the ground. This comes after police reportedly tried to move them towards the sidewalk in Bay Ridge.&nbsp;

Subsequently, the officers began tackling and arresting people, while some protesters could be seen yelling and fighting back with the officers, according to the videos.&nbsp;

According to the New York Post, the entire neighbourhood was blanketed by a massive police presence. “The NYPD has spent over 400 million on Palestine protest alone,” the demonstrators chanted in a call and response, as quoted by the media report.&nbsp;

A report by the New York Times, early Sunday (May 19), citing a senior law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity said at least 34 people were arrested amid the protest in Brooklyn, while the charges they face were unclear.&nbsp;

<h2>University of Pennsylvania</h2>

The University of Pennsylvania police, on Saturday, said six students were among 19 pro-Palestinian protesters arrested during an attempt to occupy a school building.&nbsp;

Members of Penn Students Against the Occupation of Palestine had called for action on Friday (May 17) at the school’s Fisher-Bennett Hall, urging supporters to bring “flags, pots, pans, noise-makers, megaphones” and other items, according to the Associated Press.&nbsp;

The local media reported that the officers from the University police supported by city police then escorted the protesters out and secured the building.&nbsp;

The police said that they recovered “lock-picking tools and homemade metal shields fashioned from oil drums,” after clearing out the building.&nbsp;

Additionally, exit doors had been secured with zip ties and barbed wire and barricaded with metal chairs and desks, while windows were covered by newspaper and cardboard, and bike racks and metal chairs blocked entrances, said the police, according to AP.&nbsp;

Last week, city and university police broke up a two-week encampment on the campus, arresting 33 people, nine of whom were students and two dozen of whom had “no Penn affiliation,” according to university officials.

<h2>Campus protests in Australia</h2>

In a statement, on Saturday, students at La Trobe University said that the college authorities are “attempting to crush pro-Palestine encampments.” This comes amid a wave of campus protests in support of Palestinians in Australia.&nbsp;

La Trobe University, on Friday, issued a formal directive for protesters asking them to end their encampment on the Bundoora campus, according to the Guardian.&nbsp;

The students have also renamed the building from Arts West to Mahmoud Hall, to honour a Palestinian student who they say intended to study at the but was killed in Gaza last year.

Gravitas: Dublin-New York portal shutdown

An art project connecting Dublin and New York through a live video "portal" has been closed temporarily within less than a week of its launch due to instances of misconduct.

The portal, featuring a continuous live stream displayed on large circular screens in both cities, was crafted by Lithuanian artist Benediktas Gylys. Each structure, weighing 3.5 tonnes, boasted a 2.4-metre diameter screen.

It is positioned at the junction of Broadway, Fifth Avenue, and 23rd Street in New York. In Dublin, it is placed at the corner of North Earl Street and O’Connell Street.

The portals were put in place in order to foster a sense of connection between distant places.

However, reports surfaced of users engaging in "inappropriate behaviour" such as displaying swear words. Some even flashed&nbsp;their body parts, and a few people in Dublin even transmitted footage of the 9/11 attacks for New York viewers to see.&nbsp;

Dublin City Council and the Flatiron Nomad Partnership, responsible for the installations, swiftly responded to address the issue.

The council announced plans to implement technical solutions within 24 hours to curb such behaviour, while the Flatiron&nbsp;revealed intentions to install software updates and increase on-site staff and barriers.

Amid efforts to rectify the situation, the portal remained inactive on Monday and Tuesday (May 13-14), with hopes of resuming operations by Wednesday morning (May 15).

Dublin City Council expressed disappointment that their initial solution, involving blurring, was deemed inadequate.

“Dublin city council had hoped to have a solution in place today, but unfortunately the preferred solution, which would have involved blurring, was not satisfactory," it said in a statement.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, the Flatiron Nomad Partnership said that the inappropriate actions stemmed from a "very small minority" and affirmed that the overwhelming majority of visitors had engaged with the art installation appropriately, experiencing the intended sense of joy and connection.

Initially planned to remain on display until autumn, the art installation gained global attention and stirred controversy since its launch on May 8.

<h2>Mostly friendly gestures&nbsp;</h2>

While most interactions involved friendly gestures and playful exchanges, some incidents, including egg-throwing and displaying offensive imagery, led to the temporary shutdown.

Founder of the portal and artist Gylys said, “Portals are an invitation to meet people above borders and differences and to experience our world as it really is—united and one."

Bengaluru city in the south Indian state of Karnataka is on the world’s wealthiest cities list in 2024 with its millionaire population more than doubling in the past decade. According to Henley &amp; Partners, "When it comes to wealth growth potential over the next decade, cities to watch include Bengaluru (India), Scottsdale (USA), and Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam). All three have enjoyed exceptional growth rates of over 100% in their resident millionaire populations over the past ten years.”

Similarly, New York City, associated with wealth and opulence,&nbsp;boasts a staggering $3 trillion in total wealth, recent data indicated. New York leads the world with nearly 350,000 millionaires, a remarkable increase of 48 per cent over the past decade.&nbsp;

New York City's reputation stems from its status as a global financial hub as well as numerous high-net-worth individuals. As per the report, nearly one out of every 24 residents in New York possesses a net worth exceeding seven figures, a rise from the ratio of one in 36 recorded in 2013.

Moreover, the city hosts&nbsp;a substantial number of ultra-high-net-worth individuals, with 60 billionaires and 744 people possessing investable wealth exceeding $100 million.

Following New York, the Bay Area, encompassing cities like San Jose, San Francisco, and Palo Alto, emerged as the second wealthiest region globally, with over 305,700 millionaires.

Tokyo, the capital of Japan and another global city often associated with wealth and prosperity and known for its vibrant culture, secured the third spot with 298,300 millionaires, experiencing a marginal decline of 5 per cent over the past ten years.

Singapore,&nbsp;often dubbed the "Lion City" and renowned for its economic success, ranked fourth, with 3,400 high net-worth individuals relocating there in 2023 alone.

However, cities like London and Hong Kong have faced setbacks, with London witnessing a 10 per cent decline in its millionaire population, attributed partly to Brexit, while Hong Kong experienced a 4 per cent decrease due to a pandemic-era crackdown.

New York leads the world with nearly 350,000 millionaires, a remarkable increase of 48 per cent over the past decade.

Multiple emails containing disturbing bomb threats were sent to more than two dozen Jewish institutions and synagogues in New York City on Saturday (May 4), as per the New York City Police Department. The police officials in New York found the threats to be 'fake' and the authorities have been investigating the emails to find those who are behind these threats. “Hello, if you see this email just have notice of a bomb I have set inside of your building. This isn’t a threat. I have set a bomb in your building, you have a few hours to disarm or else blood will shatter everywhere," read the email, which was sent to the synagogues, as per The New York Post. As per the reports, the threats were sent by a group which called itself "Terrorizers111". The threats were mailed to 14 Manhattan synagogues and Jewish centres - two in Brooklyn and five in Queens - as well as two upstate temples and one on Long Island. A similar bomb threat was also sent to the New York Landmarks Conservancy.

Govt to extend federal assistance to protect houses of worship US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Sunday (May 5) announced that federal assistance of $400 million will be extended to protect houses of worship by providing funds to security guards, cameras and barriers. “Last night’s bomb threats targeting New York City synagogues created immense fear, but sadly, these threats are not a total shock given the rise in antisemitism that we have seen and the overall spike in threats to places of worship,” said Schumer, in a statement. “Protecting our nonprofit community spaces, like our synagogues, mosques, churches and more has unfortunately demanded more help at the federal level as the threats have increased. These funds are to help lessen the unease across the city in the places where we worship, pray, and learn," he added. He further added that he spoke to the FBI about the ongoing investigation. Watch: After US, pro-Palestine protests erupt in Germany, UK, France "I asked them to make every effort to track down who did this. It's hard to do, because those who do it can often hide where their email is coming from, where their phone calls are coming from, in either case. But the FBI has had good success, it takes time, and they are able to track many of these bad people who do this kind of activity down and then go after them," Schumer said. As per the Anti-Defamation League's data, 8,873 antisemitic incidents took place in the US last year, which is a 140 per cent spike in comparison to the 2022 figure. (With inputs from agencies)

Trump Hush money case: Judge fines Trump for contempt of court

The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s historic criminal case fined the former United States president $9,000 after holding him in contempt of court for repeatedly violating a gag order that barred him from making public statements about witnesses, jurors and some others related to the ongoing trial.&nbsp;

<h2>Trump warned about jail time</h2>

The order by Justice Juan Merchan came as the proceedings in the trial resumed in Manhattan criminal court, on Tuesday (Apr 30). Earlier this month, prosecutors had alleged 10 violations of the gag order, but the judge found there were nine.&nbsp;

Trump, according to the Associated Press, has also been warned by the judge that if he violates the gag order again, he could be jailed. &nbsp;

In his written order, Merchan said that Trump “is hereby warned that the Court will not tolerate continued willful violations of its lawful orders and that if necessary and appropriate under the circumstances, it will impose an incarceratory punishment.”

He also noted that this fine may not be enough to serve as a deterrent for the former president, and lamented he did not have the authority to impose a higher penalty.

The judge has also ordered Trump to remove seven statements from his Truth Social account and two from his campaign website by 2:15 pm (local time).&nbsp;

Merchan said he would consider whether to impose additional fines at a hearing on Thursday (May 2). The former president has been fined $1,000 for each of nine online statements that the judge said violated the order.&nbsp;

Last month, the judge imposed a gag order on Trump on the prosecutors’ request to block him from speaking about the witnesses.&nbsp;

The order was later expanded to include his own family members and those of the Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, a Democrat who brought the charges against the former president.&nbsp;

<h2>Proceedings on Tuesday</h2>

The court on Tuesday will reportedly begin with testimony from a banker who is said to be familiar with the former president’s accounts and the alleged scheme to pay hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels and falsifying business records to cover the payments.&nbsp;

Banker Gary Farro, who has not been accused of wrongdoing, reportedly&nbsp;helped Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen open accounts, including one that was used to pay hush money to Daniels.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The charges in the case stem from alleged accounting fraud and falsifying business records to cover up the $130,000 payment to Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. &nbsp;

<h2>‘TRUMP 24’</h2>

Trump is the first former US president to face a criminal trial, which began on April 22 after the selection of the jury. But he is also the presumptive Republican candidate for the upcoming presidential election and campaigning when he is not in court.&nbsp;

On Tuesday morning, around two dozen supporters rallied outside the courthouse chanting and waving banners that read “TRUMP 24,” reported Reuters.&nbsp;

The hush money case is one of the four criminal cases against Trump, but the only one which went to trial and will result in a verdict ahead of the November elections.&nbsp;
