Finishing Well2 Chronicles 16:9In this special podcast episode recorded at Ballymacashon Reformed Church (Congregational) Rev Raymond McLarnon one of retired ministers from Ballymena, Co.Antrim looks at 2nd Chronicles, and the backsliding of Asa, noting that he started well, but finished badly. He relied on the help of man, and failed to fully trust in the Lord - but God seen him, not just his outward actions, but what was in his heart, - for he sees and knows everything in this world. He is omniscient. May we be sure no finish well! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There were oyster reefs in Belfast Lough until the early 20th century, when overfishing and pollution all but destroyed them.贝尔法斯特湾曾经有牡蛎礁,直到 20 世纪早期,人类的过度捕捞和污染几乎完全毁灭了它们。Over the last four years, oyster nurseries have been set up on the coasts of counties Antrim and Down. Now conservationists have placed 2,000 adult European oysters and more than 30,000 juveniles on the seabed of the lough. Scientists hope the shellfish will form a natural reef and improve the water quality because they remove pollutants.在过去四年间,一些牡蛎繁殖场被设立在了安特里姆郡和唐郡的海岸线上。目前,自然保护工作者已经在海湾中投放了 2000 只成年欧洲牡蛎和超过 3 万只幼年牡蛎。科学家希望这种贝类动物能够形成天然礁石并改善水质,因为它们能去除水中的污染物。Northern Ireland's devolved government is supporting the project. It's led by the charity Ulster Wildlife, which has said the latest stage is a huge step forward in helping to restore a small but mighty ocean superhero.北爱尔兰自治政府支持这个项目。该项目由慈善机构阿尔斯特野生动植物组织牵头,该组织称项目的最新阶段是朝着实现帮助恢复这种体型小、实力强的海洋超级英雄的目标迈出的一大步。
Clare hurling boss Brian Lohan is praising his side's mentality as they made it two wins from two in the National Hurling League. The Banner racked up an impressive 2-30 scoring tally en route to a 14 point win over Davy Fitzgerald's Antrim. The victory leaves Clare top of the Division 1b standings as they go in search of promotion back to the top tier. Lohan says his side were under pressure to come away with the win, but duly delivered.

Who doesn't love a great roadie? Self-drive adventures rank highly in my pantheon of golden travel experiences and Northern Ireland's Causeway Coast touring route is a show-stopper. Bookended by Derry~Londonderry and Belfast Lough, this sublime 185km drive threads together a stirring mosaic of fishing villages, secluded beaches, wondrous rock formations, rugged coastlines, crumbling castles, storied history and mouth-watering scenery. Pointing the car northeast from Derry~Londonderry, I began tracing the nooks and crannies of Northern Ireland's theatrical coastline by stopping off at Mussenden Temple. Dramatically perched on a cliff lording over Downhill Beach, this flamboyant folly was constructed in 1785 - inspired by the Temple of Vesta, near Rome. This circular stone temple served as a library and retreat for the eccentric Earl of Bristol who was also the Bishop of Derry (Earl Bishop), along with enormous views over the Atlantic Ocean. The setting is lip-smacking, wrapped in glorious estate gardens which you can explore on the cliff-edge walk, along with the ruins of the Earl Bishop's mansion, Downhill House. Fancy a beach layover? The neighbouring seaside resort towns of Portstewart and Portrush are blessed with sprawling blonde-sand beaches, backed my muscular limestone cliffs. Portrush is the bigger, brasher resort with an abundance of souvenir shops and amusement arcades like Curry's Fun Park. There's a faded glory feel to this seaside spot, exuding a retro appeal, in a similar vein to Blackpool or Bournemouth. But it's those drop-dead-gorgeous beaches and turquoise waters that really steal the show. Liberally strung along the Causeway Coast, strategically located look-out points cater to roadtrippers eager to get snap-happy and drink in the panoramic views. Few spots command greater affection than the Dunluce Castle look-out. It's a riveting perch to dreamily gaze across the crumbling castle ruins, clinging to the cliff, high above the churning ocean on a wind-walloped basalt outcrop. This medieval stronghold of the MacDonnell clan featured regularly on Game of Thrones. The MacDonnell Clan of Antrim still technically own it, even though the castle fell into disrepair 300 years ago. You can access it via the bridge which connects it to the mainland. Like many Irish castles, Dunluce has a fine bit of legend attached to it. It's said that on a stormy night back in 1639, part of the castle's kitchen fell into the icy water below. Apparently, only the kitchen boy survived, as he managed to tuck himself away in a safe corner of the room. If set-jetting is your bag, there's a host of fantastical shooting locations for Thrones fans to scout out in Northern Ireland, around the Causeway Coast. Just inland in Ballymoney, I jaunted to The Dark Hedges. Falling victim to over-tourism, stringent traffic and parking restrictions are now in place. Go early in the morning to dodge the hordes. Nor did I see The Dark Hedges. Photo / Mike Yardley The legendary ghost, the Grey Lady, a spectral figure said to drift silently between the ancient beech trees. This iconic avenue of gnarly, intertwined beech trees was planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family to create a grand entrance to their estate, Gracehill House. It's an ethereal landscape which of course became globally famed after appearing as Kingsroad on Game of Thrones. Sadly, over a dozen of these trees have been lost in recent storms and a heritage trust has been formed to try and keep the remaining 80 trees alive, given they are reaching the end of their natural lives. Heading back to the ocean, the Causeway Coast earns its name from a primordial geological marvel that may well prove to be your road-tripping highlight. Yes, the Giant's Causeway. Forged 60 million years ago when molten lava cooled quickly in the ocean water and contracted into crystallised basalt pillars, it is a head-spinning volcanic formation. The spectacle is compelling, a procession of 40,000 basalt hexagonal blocks and columns, reaching out into the ocean, like primal pistons thrusting out of the earth. You can take your chances and hop-scotch or clamber your way across these inter-locking formations, as crashing waves thunder in. The spectacle is best enjoyed at low-tide, revealing more and more of these basalt columns. Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. Photo / Mike Yardley I enjoyed a night in the charismatic village of Bushmills, just minutes from the Giant's Causeway. Sip on a dram from the world's oldest licensed distillery. Old Bushmills Distillery started manufacturing after a grant from King James 1 in 1608. Over 400 years later, they're still making single-malt whiskey here, using Irish barley and the unique water from their own stream too, spilling out of the River Bush which flows over basalt rock. Jamesons is the No.1 selling Irish whiskey. Like Jamesons, Bushmills is triple-distilled for smoothness, but distinctly individual in character. If you prefer gentle vanilla sweetness with subtle fruitiness, reach for Jameson. If malty richness with honey and spice appeals more, Bushmills will hit the sweet spot. Take a distillery tour to fully revel in the magic. Just around the corner, enjoy a night at the Bushmills Inn Hotel. Sharing the same pedigree as the distillery, the oldest part of the Inn, which is now home to the restaurant, was the original coach house and stables, circa 1608. Blending historic character with modern luxury, this award-winning hotel, backed by the River Burn, is an evocative place to rest and savour the legendary drama and beauty of the Causeway Coast. Space and luxury are the hallmark of the 41 guest rooms and suites, individually designed with stylish, traditional furnishings. After enjoying a dram by the cracking peat fire, tuck into some seriously good gourmet dining, steeped in local produce like treacle-cured salmon and seabass fillets with seared scallops. After a great night's sleep and a hearty full Irish breakfast, I headed back on the Causeway route, passing through picturesque Ballintoy Harbour (another Thrones filming site) to reach the remarkable Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. Suspended and swaying 30 metres above the roiling Atlantic, this catch-your-breath rope bridge is cared for by the National Trust. Clinging to the cliffs off the mainland and the outcrop Carrick Island, this gnarly rope bridge was first erected by salmon fishermen over 250 years ago. Crossing the bridge is a thrilling experience with sublime views across to Rathlin Island and the Scottish Islands, along with encountering the original salmon fishery. Blow out the cobwebs and sway with the bracing wind. Fishermen first constructed a single handrail rope bridge to transport boxes of their prized salmon, caught off the island. There would be have been tens of thousands of crossings, over time. Ever since its construction in 1755, not a single report of anyone losing their from slipping off the bridge has been recorded. I didn't want to blot that copybook. As I tentatively crossed over, my guide thoughtfully informed me that the current model can withstand the weight of a double-decker bus. After reflecting on the gluttonous size of my full Irish breakfast, that was quite reassuring. I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of the historic fisherman's cottage, where they would store their nets and take shelter while awaiting their catch of migrating salmon. It's a magnificent, elemental nugget of coastal pride and seafaring heritage. Carnlough Harbour.

These nine dramatic, forest-filled valleys in County Antrim, spill forth with folklore, spectacular hiking trails, bucolic splendour and truly charming villages like Glenariff. If you're after a scenic medley of deep valleys, rolling hills, lush forests and thundering waterfalls, you'll be in seventh heaven. Don't rush the Glens, they're best savoured at an easy, meditative and relaxed pace. For one final night of Causeway magic, before driving back to Belfast and onto Dublin, I luxuriated in the picturesque seaside village of Carnlough. Located at the foothills of Glencoy – one of the nine Glens of Antrim, edged by the shores of Carnlough Bay, this sheltered and compact harbour is the focal point of Carnlough village. Carnlough Harbour is another Thrones location to add to you tick-list. Fans will recognise the stony staircase leading down to the sea, filmed as part of the Free City of Braavos Canal. With its storybook good looks, this sweetheart stone harbour was first constructed in 1854 by the Marchioness of Londonderry (Winston Churchill's great grandmother), to help develop the limestone export trade. It's also home to the Harbourview Hotel. Formerly known as the Londonderry Arms, this gorgeous main street institution, beckoning like a country house hotel, has been refreshed into Ireland's first destination whiskey hotel. The Harbourview's focus is on Irish spirits, rare tastings, and events, blending its rich 1848 history with modern coastal luxury on the scenic Causeway Coast. I delved into the hotel's Whiskey Chamber, brimming with over 200 Irish whiskeys, where sublime tastings, distillery dinners, and whiskey-themed events take place, led by co-owner and master distiller Darryl McNally. Darryl and his fellow hotel owners also own Outwalker and Limavady Whiskey. Great drops! Old Bushmills Distillery. Photo / Mike Yardley Retaining stunning features including open fires and original terrazzo flooring, the new hotel features a newly refurbished bar, lounge and restaurant, offering the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern Irish hospitality. Each of the 35 elegantly appointed bedrooms have been completely redecorated and revamped, blending contemporary luxury with timeless style, and where the emphasis centred squarely on comfort. Hearty hospitality and a homely atmosphere is just the start of the Harbourview's seduction. A fitting place to raise a celebratory glass to the conveyer belt of treasures, underpinning the siren-like pull of the Causeway Coast. Fill your heart with Ireland in the enchanting Emerald Isle.

It's an inclusive event where everyone, from individuals to families, friends, and entire communities, can ‘step up together' to walk, stroll, jog, or run. To get involved individuals can join one of the more than 150 organised events across Ireland, or they can choose to register and complete their own mile at www.goalmile.org. AIB is also proud that the public can donate to GOAL directly through the AIB app, providing flexible options for everyone to contribute to this great cause.
Thanks to the stalwart efforts of Ulster Wildlife, the Northern Irish conservation charity, Puffins have returned to nest on the Isle of Muck off the coast of Co. Antrim for the first time in 25 years. This was made possible in part by the systematic eradication of non-native Brown Rats from the tiny island...

Rising from Argentina's underground, Analog Jungs are the duo of Claudio Cornejo and Gustavo Ruarte. Since their 2015 debut, they've honed a sound rooted in dance-floor fundamentals, inspired by artists like Cid Inc, Guy J, and Henry Saiz.

More recently, their Mango Alley streak has delivered an impressive run of productions, highlighted by ‘Solar Symphony': a depth charge of a track that grooves with infectious drive. In this Balance Selections mix, Analog Jungs stay true to form with another engaging underground outing. Featuring tracks from Patch Park, Fran Garay, EMPHI and much more, this is deep 2 hours of quality progressive that never lurks too far for the shadows. @analog-jungs

This week, we head back to the 1800's to meet the man who would become known as Billy the Kid! Born Henry McCarty in New York City, he eventually went west with his Mother and brother with stops in Indiana and Wichita before landing in Silver City New Mexico. His mom died when he was just 14 and his stepdad abandoned him to head to California to start mining. Henry's first criminal act was to steal food for which he served ten days in jail. Later he went on to become a horse thief and a Regulator and fought in a conflict called the Lincoln County War. He killed a corrupt Sheriff and his deputy and became fodder for tales of the Wild West and Newspapers, building a legend as a killer that it's possible he didn't earn. We talk about his life, his death and the mysteries and surprises he left behind, including a possible survival under the name 'Brushy' Bill Cody! All this and Arthur talks school and the Finch App and Laura and Dean discuss whether or not Jon Bon Jovi qualifies as butt rock in this special Young Guns episode of the Family Plot Podcast!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

This weeks podcast chat is with hugely inspiring (award winning) Musical Comedian Emer Maguire who discusses how many barriers and challenges she's had to overcome to carve out her career. From being 'Neurospicy' (with diagnosed OCD and Autism) to being gay and feeling 'different' on so many levels her whole life. She sheds some light on what life is like with these 'labels' (for want of a better word) and how she's carved out her successful career in a way that feels authentic to her. I LOVE how real Emer is and in her own words she can't be anything else. We could all learn a LOT about self acceptance and courage from this conversation.Follow Emer (and see tickets to her upcoming shows):https://www.instagram.com/emermaguireofficial?igsh=MWt5ZjYwNHBpZTJ0eA==*********WORK WITH AMANDA:JOIN The High Vibe Tribe Monthly Membership NOW:A Mindset & Manifesting Community for High Achieving Heart and Soul Centred Women.https://amandastjohn.lpages.co/high-vibe-tribe-monthly-womens-membership/**1:1 COACHING - Transformational support to achieve a business or personal goalBook in for 1:1 Coaching - https://amandastjohn.lpages.co/transformational-11-coaching/WEEKEND RETREAT - Glenariffe Co.Antrim 26th - 28th Sept 2025 (FINAL 3 SPACES)https://amandastjohn.lpages.co/reset-reconnect-revive-3-day-womens-wellness-empowerment-retreat-copy/Other ways of WORKING with Me:https://linktr.ee/acreatedlife_coachAmanda St John/A Created Life is a professional Singer-Songwriter, Music Mentor, Motivational Coach & TEDx Speaker from Ireland.

Andy Gleeks form Antrim has been announced as the winner of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival's 'funniest joke' competition with "I had to visit the trauma unit last weekend. He prefers the term dad.” We asked our listeners could they do better than that...
Up for the MatchOff on Sunday morning to Croke Park. Dark skies. Lots of grey clouds. Our journey was delayed by Féile An Phobail's 5km and 10km run. Diverted and distracted we eventually got out of West Belfast and on the road to Dublin. Enroute the dark skies lightened. The grey clouds gave way to blue heavens and gentle sunshine. We were off to watch Antrim's Lady Footballers in our own All Ireland against Louth. As we crossed the Border KneeCap kept our spirits high. Their ceol blasted out and the car rocked as we hip hopped to the Capital. A morning after the night before follow-on from Saturday evening's Falls Park Country frolicks.The match in Croker started off positively with Antrim taking an early lead but Louth soon asserted themselves and Antrim was chasing the game from then until the last ten minutes. Some of the players may have been overwhelmed by the big occasion. If so who could blame them? To play in Croke is mighty and Antrim supporters were out in strength. Everyone, including us, as proud as could be. Family members, club mates. The number of Northern Gaels was swelled by Tyrone supporters who later went on to win their championship against Laois. Dublin went on to best Meath in the Seniors. A great day of Gaelic football.Gaza – An Gorta Mór – The StarvationThe scenes of desperation as starving people in Gaza try to get basins or pots filled with soup, are shocking images. It is a famine we are told. Last week the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), a United Nations panel which had long warned of the threat of famine, concluded that it was now a reality.The use of the word ‘famine' and the images of starving children are a reminder for many in Ireland of what life must have been like during An Gorta Mór in the 1840s. But it is important to note that in a famine there is no food. In Ireland there was plenty of food. During those years the quaysides of ports along our coast were lined each day with abundant produce - all bound for export. It was a starvation.The hunger in Gaza is an Israeli made starvation. Aid agencies and the UN have more than enough food and medical aid ready to enter Gaza. Israel prevents this. It is not a famine – it is a starvationOrangism in the New IrelandThe northern statelet was built for unionism. It was constructed and then managed in a way to ensure that nationalists would never have a say in running the place.We are less than three years off the 30th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement. Most citizens, and many within the broad unionist section of our people, have grown accustomed to the stability and peace it has brought but there are others who still hanker after the old days of supremacy. The DUP shares the office of the First Minister with Sinn Féin but their strategy is focused on the next Assembly election in two years' time and their aim is to remove Michelle O'Neill as First Minister. That is why there is a battle a day over Irish language rights. That is why there has been no start on building the new Casement. That is why there is negative nonsense over bi-lingual signage in public places.
Also, bin changes in Antrim and Newtownabbey leaves resident furious.

Cooraclare's Aisling Kelly believes the Clare minor ladies footballers have been hardened by the tough defeats the squad have experienced in recent seasons. The Banner are gearing up for an All Ireland Final as they head to the Connaught GAA Centre of Excellence in Bekan, Co.Mayo on Saturday afternoon to face Sligo. Sligo came out on top when the sides met in last year's semi final en route to claiming the title, while the Clare squad also tasted defeat in the U16c final against Antrim two years ago. Joint Vice captain, Kelly, says the side have matured greatly over the course of the past couple of years.

All-Ireland winners James Skehill and Paul Murphy joined Will O'Callaghan to review the last round of group games in the Munster and Leinster Hurling Championships. Cork bounced back from their Limerick loss to defeat Waterford and reach a first Munster final since 2018, while the Deise's miserable round-robin record continued. Galway's first away Championship victory at Dublin saw them set up. a Leinster decider with Kilkenny, but how confident is Skehill about them beating the Cats?Antrim dropped to the McDonagh Cup, they'll be replaced by either Laois or Kildare in next year's Leinster Championship.
SwingerI spent the last week in Dublin in the Four Courts as part of the outworking of my case against the BBC's Spotlight programme nine years ago. But more of that when it's over which could take another fortnight.On the morning that the case started our Gearóid phoned me to say that his father-in-law Paddy ‘Swinger' McBride was dead. The news was a great shock. I had spent a half hour or more a few days before chatting with Paddy in his home. He was just out after a spell in hospital, and although he was ill his spirit was strong and he was full of craic and talk about the current politics, his son Patrick's Man of the Match performance for Antrim against Armagh, the need to build Casement and how a son of Tony Benn could behave the way Hillary Benn does.Israel's reign of terrorAs this column goes to press the Israeli government is calling up tens of thousands of army reservists for a full scale military invasion, subjugation and occupation of the Gaza Strip. After almost 20 months of genocide against the Palestinian people the Israeli state is now embarking on its final solution – the displacement of two million people and the mass murder of more Palestinians.Last Saturday was World Press Freedom Day – but not in Gaza. In the year and a half of this current reign of terror by Israel at least 211 journalists have been killed in the Gaza Strip while the international press corps is denied access to report on events in that huge concentration camp. Britain and most western and European states are silent on this. They are silent also on the deliberate use of starvation as a weapon of war against two million people, many of them children, who live in Gaza. According to UNICEF over three hundred thousand children under the age of five are suffering severe malnutrition.Commission on the Future of IrelandAs momentum in the demand for Irish Unity grows the work of Sinn Féin's Commission on the Future of Ireland continues to expand.In the last two months the Commission has held a Mid Ulster Peoples Assembly in the Seamus Heaney Homeplace in Bellaghy; a Tionól Pobail Bhaile Ghib in County Meath; a climate crisis conference - One Island, One Environment – in Dublin and an EU & Irish Unity- What next?- event in the European Parliament in Brussels.
All-Ireland winners James Sklehill and Paul Murphy joined Will O'Callaghan to review a cracking opening weekend of Championship action.

Skehill is worried about Galway's lack of style of play and their Leinster chances after a hammering by Kilkenny, Lee Chin starred as Wexford accounted for Antrim, and Dublin had a strong finish to beat Offaly at Parnell Park.
