Padraig Harrington's practice range in the backyard of his Dublin home comes equipped with floodlights. When his wife hauls him in after midnight, as she often does, the Irish golfer retires to a specially designed indoor range in his basement. At most tournaments, Harrington is the last golfer to leave the practice ground; at one event this year he hid a stash of balls behind a hospitality tent so he could sneak back out to practice after the staff went home. As is common to addicts, those close to Harrington try to wean him off his habit. His caddy...

I'm from Ireland, am the same age as Bono, have every one of their recordings on vinyl and CD, and have seen the band live, in Dublin and elsewhere, many times.

...painting has languished for centuries outside Dublin at Newbridge House, home base of the Cobbe family, where until recently no one suspected it might be a portrait of the Bard. Three years ago, Alec Cobbe, who had inherited much of the collection in the 1980s and placed it in trust, found himself at an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London called "Searching for Shakespeare." There he saw a painting from the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., that had been accepted until the late 1930s as a portrait of Shakespeare from life. Looking at it, Cobbe felt certain...
