Díreach tar éis breathnú ar sheanchlár faisnéise den scoth ar na Blascaodaí (RTÉ, 1984). An t-uafás eolais ann: grianghraif, gearrthóga físe agus agallaimh. Béim ar an ábhar féin ar feadh dhá uair a chloig, seachas ar láithreoir éigin atá "ag dul ar thuras". www.youtube.com/watch?v=DM16...

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

😡In a final vote, the European Parliament stripped away remaining environmental safeguards in EU farm policy.

Two rushed “simplifications” gutted years of progress, giving Big Agri what it wanted: public money to pollute, no strings attached.

Here’s what we lost ⬇️

Lovely, fascinating, revealing writing by @clodaghfinn.bsky.social about painter Estella Solomons and the many reasons for valuing her contribution to Irish and Jewish life.

These two stories are somehow connected. Apparently, if you lobby tirelessly for more pollution & ecological wreckage, that’s exactly what you get.

Aside from the 11 Chapters, we also translated the Preface of the Caighdeán Oifigiúil, which should also be of interest to learners.

Cnoc Raithní • Inis Oírr

This unusual feature, with its two upstanding pillar stones, marks a burial mound that was rediscovered and excavated in 1885 after a storm blew away the sand that covered it.

The dig revealed Bronze Age urns and human remains that were dated to c.1500 BC.

Inniu, thug an tUachtarán Catherine Connolly cuairt ar phríomhoifig Focus Ireland , áit ar bhuail sí leis an bPríomhfheidhmeannach, Pat Dennigan, agus leis an bhfoireann, agus shínigh sí leabhar comhbhróin don tSiúr Stanislaus Kennedy.

The far right will eventually kill someone or lots of someones if our pathetic government does not act now to stop them … first step would be for politicians, including Government ministers, to stop repeating far right racist rhetoric #speirgorm
Firefighters rescued five people, including three children under ten, from the top floor of an Ipas centre in Drogheda last night after a major fire.

Gardaí have preserved the scene while the cause of the blaze is investigated.

I think Ireland should pride itself that people consider uprooting and starting new lives here. It wasn't too long ago that people were leaving this country in their droves for new pastures elsewhere.

Really have to wonder about these vaguely anti-ev stories on the RTE website. In this case a little more research wd reveal that most ev owners in Irl charge for as little as 0.7c per kwh hr between eg 2 and 5.00 am. That fact blows quite a hole in the thrust of the article. Very odd.
