IF YOU HAVE ever had to explain a piece of tech jargon like OS or NFC to someone, you will likely know the difficulty in describing them in terms that they will understand.
In the case of URLs (or Uniform Resource Locators if you want to be very technical), you won’t have to worry about explaining it properly as AFP News Agency has put together a quick video breaking down the entire function of a URL.
For those who feel lost hearing the term, each segment is broken down into relatable analogies like the idea that a URL is the online version of an address and what happens if you enter in the wrong letter or character into it.
For the rest of us, treat it as a refresher.

Aggravated burglary? The man was known to his attackers!
@páraicS: that’s not a good defence.
@páraicS: glad the gardai ard on it
@John Considine: My point is it wasn’t a burglary. They went there with the intention of attacking the man In question. What they did is abhorrent but burglary it wasn’t!
@páraicS: look up burglary in the law will before commenting
@páraicS: it definitely was a burglary. You need to look up the definition
Dragging somebody out of bed and dousing them in petrol is attempted murder. How can it be aggravated burglary when nothing was stolen?
@Paul O’Sullivan: that’s not what burglary is. Look up the definition
@superdooper: a man was doused in petrol and set alight. Aggravated Burglary should be the least of their worries, Greivious Bodily Harm at least if not attempted murder , I think the maximum sentence should apply here if found guilty.
@Paul O’Sullivan: enter as trespassers wih intent to commit an arrestable offence.. dont have to steal anything.
@Martin Gordon: We know that they entered the premises and did commit an arrestable offence…. attacking a man with a machete and an exhaust pipe then dousing him in petrol setting him alight..
Why are you defending these scxm ?? Say what it is ….
@Paul O’Sullivan: it’s an aggravated burglary
@Paul O’Sullivan: I’m not defending. it is what it is. it is also attempted murder. I’m not saying it isn’t that. the attempted murder is the arrestable offence in the burglary. look up aggravated burglary. educate yourself.
@Martin Gordon: idiot
@Paul O’Sullivan: thank god you dont work for the Dpp
The whole sentencing system should be reformed. Longer sentences for crimes. Life for murder should be life.
There was a time when you saw a garda it meant something. Now there is no fear. Two garda shot at during week. Thats atemted murder.
@Dave Barrett: the sentencing and grammar systems by some commenters on here
leave a lot to be desired.
@WreckDefier: Can we get a job like yours. always wanted to be in the grammar and spelling police. Ops! I forgot the I before always.
@Dave Barrett: In fairness it’s hard to miss atemted which murdered attempted
Share the info you have with the gardai so.
THERE IS NO REAL PUNISHMENT FOR aggravated burglary.
@Michael Bannon: maximum sentence 14 years
@Michael Bannon: if they are caught they will be charged with more than aggravated burglary, like assault causing serious harm etc..
@Paul O’Sullivan: maximum sentence for aggravated burglary is life. not 14 years. just another thing you’re wrong about.
@Michael Bannon: life sentence Michael.. literally the maximum sentence punishment there is. back to law school for you.
@Martin Gordon: really Mr Gordon the vile piece of filth that ended my mum’s life in 02 is getting out soon and has been out on 2 day releases
My mum will never have a day release.
@Jason Quinn: sorry to hear that. I’m just stating facts to people who are putting up wrong facts. unfortunately our justice system is very flawed. and life does not mean life.
I know people are saying these guys were at their wits end but this was a barbaric attack. To go back out and get the petrol is controlled. That’s not just losing the head.
Think these 2 guys voluntarily made statements to the guards a few weeks ago.
He deserved a lot more that a drop of petrol for what he did.
Aggravated Buggary
