The Indo Daily: ‘The Irish Rasputin' - The hard-drinking immigrant they couldn't kill... until they finally did
Having travelled to America in the early 1900s, Michael Malloy wound up in New York where he proved to be a quite isolated figure – no friends, no family, a lonely existence. He worked odd jobs here and there, but he was most likely to be found propping up the bar at a local speakeasy. And it was at one such derelict establishment where a diabolical plot to murder Malloy was hatched by a group of men who would later come to be known as 'The Murder Trust'. Despite the flashy name, this outfit was anything but smooth, and while they saw dollar signs in killing Malloy, getting the job done proved to be nearly impossible. And so, a manner of murderous methods was unleashed, only for Malloy to seemingly stand impervious to each and every one of them. How did the hard-drinking Irishman finally meet his fate? And what became of the bumbling criminals who eventually dispatched him? On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Simon Read, author of The Many Murders of Michael Malloy, to recount an incredible tale of life and death.

Malloy's: the beach bar that makes you feel like you're on vacation without leaving Buenos Aires
The 'gen' (spirit) is a fundamental part of projects and something that should always be present. That first inspiration that led its owners to have an idea, which then became reality, is what can determine its success. In the case of Malloy's, one of the most beautiful restaurants in Bajo San Isidro (Sebastián Elcano 1723), that initial spark was something we can all easily relate to: the places you miss when you come back from a trip. A project born from a common and powerful feeling like nostalgia can only have one outcome: success. 'The inspiration came from those places: wooden decks overlooking the river, lots of greenery, palm trees, and outdoor tables. We set out to replicate that right on the San Isidro waterfront. And what at first was a nod to beach clubs ended up becoming part of Malloy's soul,' explains Felipe 'Conejo' Bourel, one of the partners of the project. 'What at first was a nod to beach clubs ended up becoming part of Malloy's soul' Malloy's location is unbeatable for that: its first venue is located in Bajo San Isidro with stunning river views and the best sunsets. A perfect plan to escape the city for a bit, eat something tasty, and maybe spend the afternoon in one of its outdoor armchairs enjoying the scenery. 'The idea was to create a place that takes you out of your routine the moment you arrive. We wanted it to be a restaurant, but also an experience: that you're in San Isidro, but you feel like you could be at the beach,' he adds. 'The idea was to create a place that takes you out of your routine the moment you arrive' And truly, the concept is present in every corner: Malloy's walls have palm trees, the ceilings are decorated with raffia lamps, and the outdoor bar is covered with straw, simulating a beach hut. There are outdoor tables, ideal for enjoying something tasty accompanied by the different flavors of Imperial beer. 'The big difference is that vacation feeling, with good food, an incredible river view, and an ambiance designed to relax. It's a spot to come and disconnect, day or night,' he details. What to eat at Malloy's The options are very varied and for every taste: from grilled meats, pastas, fish, and even sushi — if we're on vacation we want to eat what we love most, and that's respected. Among the starters, one of the most popular is the fried calamari, and among the mains, the barbecue glazed ribs served with fries and coleslaw. Another option is to come by late afternoon and enjoy special tea-time promos, which might be coffee with croissants or a shared platter for two accompanied by two Imperial beers. The platter includes assorted cold cuts, cheeses, olives, pickled peppers, and nuts. 'People really value the atmosphere: it feels relaxed, with good energy. They come with friends, partners, family, or even alone to have a drink with a river view,' explains Bourel. 'People really value the atmosphere: it feels relaxed, with good energy' You might also like: What is hops and how does it change the flavor of beer? A beach bar at Costanera Norte Since January this year, Malloy's has a new branch at Costanera Norte, more precisely in Punta Carrasco, where the formula repeats itself: unbeatable river views, unforgettable sunsets, and an ambiance that transports you to any beach bar. Like its first location, Malloy's Costanera also has a wooden deck over the river, armchairs to relax, a very varied menu, and an unbeatable cocktail selection. 'Most people who come tell us they stay longer than expected and always find an excuse to come back. That emotional connection with the place is what we're most proud of,' Bourel concludes. 'That emotional connection with the place is what we're most proud of' The nostalgia generated by travel and the places where we have a good time now have an everyday way to express themselves: a beach bar, with good music and incredible sunsets just a few kilometers from Buenos Aires.

Divers practice rescues in Lake Michigan at sunken 19th century cargo ship
Rather than search through a burning house, firefighters from several area fire departments had to dive into 30 feet of water to a 19th-century cargo ship in Lake Michigan to rescue a victim — in this case a mannequin — during a rescue dive training drill June 18. The dive drill was conducted by the Evanston Fire Department and included participants from fire departments in Park Ridge, Skokie, Wilmette, Winnetka and Glencoe, according to Evanston Fire Department Field Chief Sean Malloy. All belong to Mutual Aid Box Alarm Division 3, which allows them to assist each other with firefighting, rescues, or other emergencies when needed. While not every one of those departments serve municipalities with large bodies of water, Malloy said they benefit from having divers that can use skills practiced in the drill. They might need to do rescues in retention ponds and reservoirs, he said, and can also assist neighboring departments who need divers. 'Unfortunately, some of these incidents [needing dive rescues] occur in these smaller little ponds [where] something happens or a car goes in,' Malloy said. Justin Morris, a 17-year firefighter, paramedic, diver and member of the surface water rescue team for the EFD, said it was the department's first time completing its dive drills on the Wells Burt, a cargo ship that sunk in 1883, and is about three miles east of Evanston and about 30 feet underneath the surface of the water. 'It was the perfect dive,' Morris said, explaining that he also recreationally dives on vacation in Aruba. 'I have never dove [a wreck] here. I've always been in the crummiest waters and stuff, diving in lakes, lagoons and rivers. 'And usually you don't get a day like we had that day,' he continued, saying that even with a bit of overcast the waters of Lake Michigan are clear enough to see in, and that the tides weren't crashing in, which can make it harder for divers to swim in under the surface. Divers met at the Church Street Boat Ramp in Evanston and took off in zodiac vessels, or small rubber boats, to the site of the Wells Burt. Teams of two divers took turns descending to the Wells Burt's bow to locate the hidden dummy, communicating with wireless communication devices. On the way up, divers performed a safety stop marked by a rope. Malloy said the Lake Michigan training is unique in comparison to other dive drills in that divers need to carve out time in their rescues to equalize water pressure. Morris said the wireless communication devices they used are similar to walkie talkies, but specialized for divers and only operable underneath the surface of the water. Divers also train to use rope signals to communicate, Morris said, to be prepared for malfunctions in the communications system, should they arise. 'Things happen. Batteries die, things getting unplugged, but this went perfect,' he said of the dive. Divers descended into the water wearing dry suits, effectively insulating their bodies from the water. 'Anytime we dive as firefighters, or in the fire service, we consider it a hazardous environment,' Malloy said. 'If you think about it, if you're looking for possibly a victim in let's say a pond — and the car's in the pond — there's gas coming out, fuel and oil — and plus lagoons and stuff are not really the cleanest places anyways, so it's important that we wear our rescue suits,' Morris said. The rescue drills also teach divers to search for evidence and lost items which can help police investigations, Morris said. Morris said even 30 feet deep, the waters of Lake Michigan are clear enough to conduct the search, and finding the dummy propped up on the Wells Burt's bow was not exceedingly difficult for him. Divers did not have a hard time locating the dummy, and to Morris's knowledge did not face excessive difficulties adjusting to the water pressure going up or going down, with some divers needing a safety break as recommended. Morris said his partner needed a moment to adjust his gear on the way down. Because Morris and his partner were the last to dive, they were able to stay under for longer, about 15 to 20 minutes, and explore the Wells Burt, Morris said. They also brought the dummy back up to the surface using a lift bag, he said. 'It was really neat to see something especially in your own backyard,' Morris said of the Wells Burt. 'I knew it was there. I've driven by it in the boat a million times, but I never got my eyes on it like that before, and got to hang out there. That's what's amazing about Lake Michigan and being here in Evanston, and a lot of the cities here. There's a lot of history that you don't even know about unless you start looking and reading.' Currently, 17 departments in the northern suburbs, including those mentioned above and Northbrook, Glenview, Lincolnwood, Niles, Morton Grove, Highland Park and others, belong to MABAS Division 3 and assist in mutual aid for public safety reasons. '[MABAS] is just our way of upgrading or getting extra resources from municipality to municipality for these more or less specialized things or larger fires or anything else. So it's a pre-planned way of getting those resources,' Malloy said.

NHL Draft: The best (but mostly the worst) draft moves by the Canucks
First, the good news. The Vancouver Canucks have hit home runs with first-round selections at the NHL Draft in the last 20 years. They landed a generational talent in record-setting captain and Norris Trophy-winner Quinn Hughes in 2018. They saw where today's game is trending and chose the gifted Elias Pettersson in 2017 and he became a Calder Trophy winner and 100-point centre. Right-winger Brock Boeser was a 2015 pick and he finished second in Calder Trophy voting and struck for a career-high 40 goals in 2023-24. Bo Horvat became the 2013 pick and the dependable two-way centre became captain. Goalie Cory Schneider was the 2013 selection and shared the Jennings Trophy with Roberto Luongo.

And Ryan Kesler was the 2003 selection who played hard and hurt and turned a 41-goal 2010-11 season into a Selke Trophy and Stanley Cup-playoffs dominance. Now, the bad news. They have also swung and missed. A lot. The Canucks have historically struggled the past two decades to draft and develop players who amass 200 NHL games, which is the measuring stick of selection success. According to NHL prospect scout Shane Malloy, statistics show how the Canucks have struggled to get a consistent leg up on the process. 'They still haven't fixed their drafting and developing,' Malloy argued Wednesday. 'Since 2006, they're one of the worst. From 2016 to 2020, the Canucks are going to get four (NHL) players and they might get six. In a 15-year period, it could be as bad as 15 players.' Malloy has authored The Art Of Scouting, appears on Hockey Prospects Radio via the Sirius-XM NHL Network and is working toward a PhD in interdisciplinary studies. Here are his research results: 2006 – 2015 drafting and development efficiency Vancouver Canucks: 10 yrs – 62 draft picks – 11 NHL players = 17.74% success rate. NHL historical average : 10 yrs – 70 draft picks – 19 NHL players = 28.19% success. Los Angeles Kings: 10 yrs – 78 draft picks – 29 NHL players = 37.17% success. 20 1 6 – 20 20 drafting and development efficiency Canucks: 5 yrs – 34 draft picks – 4 NHL players = 11.76% success. NHL historical average : 5 yrs – 35 draft picks – 9 NHL players = 28.19% success. Los Angeles Kings: 5 yrs – 36 draft picks – 10 NHL players = 27.77% success. Malloy's reasoning for analyzing 20 06 t o 201 5 is to give organizations five years to develop prospects. Since players from different leagues evolve differently , the road to a pro career is daunting and development is needed. Secondly, players that should be building blocks will be in the 23-to- 32 age range. Each organization is unique in how it manages assets, as management often trades draft choices for immediate help. P layers may be late -bloomers and eventually meet the criteria set in the analysis down the road. So, if that's the case, then who's to blame for what has transpired here? Is it an individual, the collective or how scouts are hired and deployed? Former Canucks general manager Mike Gillis knew drafting and developing weren't good enough when he took command in April 2008, but the organization was reluctant to make scouting changes. 'It's the personnel,' said Malloy. 'Not being mean against any people, I look at hockey from a business perspective. The players are just the result. If they don't play well, it's a reflection of the decisions you make with amateur scouting, your pro staff and development.' That said, here's a look at the good and bad: Joined elite franchise company with those who authored 100-point campaigns — Pavel Bure (110, 107); Henrik (112) and Daniel Sedin (104); Markus Naslund (110); and Alex Mogilny (107). F irst member of rich 2017 draft class to hit 300-point mark in 306 games. Dominant two-way centre played hard and hurt. A 41-goal season in 2010-11 — including factoring in 11 of 14 goals in a second-round playoff demolition of the Nashville Predators — contributed to Selke Trophy with 98.3 per cent of the vote total. In 2023-24, career highs for goals (17), assists (75) and points (92) to set single-season standard for franchise blueliners. P lays hurt. Plays sick. Plays crazy minutes. Tempers tough assessments with a silver lining to present the balance. Consummate captain. Compiled career-high 11 goals and 49 points in 2011-12 to cement offensive potential. Added physical presence in 2012 playoffs and led franchise blueliners in games (925), goals (99), assists (310) and points (409), before his marks were passed by Hughes. Wasn't in draft guide. Just 18 high-school goals and eight in USHL and 27 goals in four seasons at the University of Minnesota. Never played a game in the NHL. Was shipped to San Jose in August 2009, along with Daniel Rahimi, for Christian Ehrhoff and Brad Lukowich. Whether back and knee procedures, or overwhelmed being picked one spot ahead of Matthew Tkachuk, never looked comfortable. His 23 NHL games amounted to just two goals, three points. Often looked lost. Dealt to Florida for Juho Lammikko and Noah Juulsen. After 28-goal and 90-point season with Swift Current (WHL), the centre struggled. Often injured and played four games for the Canucks. Knee injury in third season almost ended career. Career with three NHL teams amounted to 26 games and no points. Small size and third-liner who suffered shoulder injury and ankle fracture before 2013-14 season. Wasn't moving ahead of Henrik Sedin or Kesler. Scored just six goals in 56 games over two seasons. Played in Minnesota, Columbus and Europe last six seasons. bkuzma@
