Léiríonn an easpa airde a tugadh ar an bhfadhb tráchta atá i sráidbhaile Bhearna, an tsiléigeacht atá in Oifig Pleanála Chomhairle Contae na Gaillimhe nuair a ceadaíodh siopa trasna an bhóthair ón scoil náisiúnta gan aon phlean tráchta a bheith mar choinníoll leis an gceadúnas pleanála., dar leis.

Plé ar chúrsaí stoirme ag cruinniú Comhairle Condae na Gaillimhe inné.

Dúirt an Comhairleoir Condae Tomás Ó Curraoin go bhfuil sé ráite le blianta ag cruinnithe de chuid na Comhairle gur cheart na crainnte a ghearradh siar agus ní mó ná sásta atá sé faoin méid atá déanta faoin gcás.

Today,  I'll be chatting with Katie Kirkpatrick. Katie is from Saskatchewan but began taking beginner's Irish with me two years ago here at the University of St. Michael's College. Since then, she has gone on to win an ICUF Canadian Irish Language Award which enabled her to complete a four-week immersion course in Conamara in the summer of 2023. In this episode, Katie speaks about her motivation for learning Irish. Her course of study at the University of Toronto requires her to be able to sing in four different languages and she chose Irish as one of those. In this chat, Katie speaks about her experiences learning Irish in Toronto and in Conamara, how singing in Irish has enhanced her studies and of her love for the art of sean-nós singing. In the final few minutes, Katie flips the script and asks me questions about my experiences teaching Irish and Gaelic games here in Toronto. I would still encourage people to download the episodes and to share them with friends and family. Downloads are the easiest indicator for me to gauge how many people I am reaching with these conversations so I would really appreciate it.

IMLÉ - an unconventional band with a unique sound all performed in the Irish Language - return with their second album entitled Fáilte Isteach.The album is a follow-up to 2017's self-titled debut IMLÉ which was described as "a ray of hope for the future of newly-composed music in Irish" by Nós.ie. Spearheaded by duo Pádraig 'MC Muipéad' Ó Conghaile (rapper, singer, lyricist, synths & producer) & Cian Mac Cárthaigh (guitar, bass, beats & producer), Fáilte Isteach sees Ó Conghaile & Mac Cárthaigh working with an eclectic group of musicians who make up the latest incarnation of the IMLÉ collective.Regular contributors Karl Odlum (Producer & multi-instrumentalist), Fergal Moloney (singer-songwriter & producer) & David Hingerty (Drummer & percussionist) return and are joined by bi-lingual vocalist, composer & songwriter Ríona Sally Hartman and Conamara native Róisín Seoighe, who began life as a Sean Nós singer but who is now writes & sings her own newly composed material in Irish, as well as Ross Whyte a Scottish composer, sound artist and one half of Scottish Gael Electronica duo WHYTE. Lyrically the album covers many different themes - from a call to action against intolerance, xenophobia & racism (Dúiseann Muid Suas) to the highly unrealistic environment of social media with imagery & profiles depicting perfection (ÉAD) but ultimately the message of the album is to celebrate the small beautiful things, the everyday and a shared life - as expressed on their first single from the album Do Chuid Jeans. The melting pot of musical styles & perspectives creates a body of work that mixes Hip-Hop, Indie, RnB, Trip-Hop and Dance music amongst other genres but ultimately results in a sound that is unique to IMLÉ.

Sons and brothers and fathers.  Uncles. Aunts. Grandparents. Many with smiling faces from better times. Birthdays. Weddings. A night out. Black and white and colour images.

Tá glactha leis an stráitéis Eorpach ar bhithéagsúlacht i gclár an rialtais nua atá bunaithe, ach imní da lériú faoin tionchar a bheidh ag an stráitéis sé oar cheantair atá caomhnaithe cheanna fhéin.

Tá an fhadhb le dumpáil mí-dhleachtach chomh dona i gContae na Gaillimhe anois agus atá cúrsaí drugaí a dúradh ag cruinniú de chomhchoiste póilíneachta Chontae na Gaillimhe inné.

Níl sé curtha as an áireamh ag rialtas go ndéanfaí éigeantach é go mbeadh daoine ag caitheamh mascanna in áiteacha áirithe a bhfuil sé deacair fanachtl 2 mhéadar amach ó dhaoine eile.

Ger Mullarkey, ceannasaí airgeadais Chomhairle Condae na Gaillimhe, a deir go dteastaíonn bóthar nua go deisceart Chonamara.

Níor tugadh cead den Chomhairleoir Contae Daithí ó Cualáin ceist na gceibheanna agus gan aon mhaoiniú a bheith faighte dhoibh i mbliana i gContae na Gaillimhe a tharraingt anuas ag cruinniú míosúil den chomhairle Contae inné.

Ní mó ná sásta atá an Comhairleoir leis an eolas atá curtha ar fáil ag an gCoimisinéara Sonraí do Chomhairle Contae na Gaillimhe faoi a bheith ag úsáid Ceamaraí slándála ag Ionaid athchúrsála agus ag láthaireacha a mbeadh dumpáil ag tarlú iontu go minic.

[English version below] Is síceolaí í Cass Ó Caoimh a bhogann go Conamara nuair a fhágtar ina baintreach í. Mar aon leis an bpostroinnt atá aici san Ionad Leighis áitiúil, glacann sí le post páirtaimseartha i gCeannáras na nGardaí mar shíceolaí fóiréinseach. Nuair a bháitear Niamh, cara a hiníne, creideann Cass gur dúnmharaíodh an ógbhean ainneoin an mhéid a cheapann an Bleachtaire Cigire, Tom Breasal, a hiarleannán. Le cúnamh ón iriseoir Gearóid, mac Tom, agus ó dhaoine a gcuireann sí aithne orthu, déanann sí bás Niamh a fhiosrú agus tugann scéal scáfar chun solais. San am atá díreach thart atá an coirscéinséir eachtrúil seo suite. Láithreoir: Seán Ó Catháin Aíonna: Eoin McEvoy agus Caomhán Ó hÓgáin [Leagan Gaeilge thuas] Cass Ó Caoimh is a psychologist who moves to Conamara when she becomes a widow.

With the help of Gearóid, a journalist and Tom's son, along with those with whom she becomes acquainted, she investigates Niamh's death and this gives rise to some alarming developments.

[English version below] Cúig ghearrscéal le cúigear fear as Conamara. Cúigear údar ar de dhlúth agus d'inneach Chonamara iad, a thugann léargas ar leith ar Chonamara, pictiúr ón taobh istigh, a phléann Conamara mar a fheictear do mhuintir Chonamara é. Ach ní hé Conamara na sléibhte maorga, na lochanna gorma, na tránna bána agus na gasúir rua le hasal agus péire cléibh atá faoi chaibidil sa leabhar seo. Feictear sna scéalta seo Conamara an chaillteanais, Conamara an bhriseadh croí agus an bháis, Conamara na tragóide, Conamara an bhróin agus an olagóin. Seo Conamara mar a bhí sé sa bhfichiú haois agus mar atá sé san aonú haois is fiche. Saothar dhátheangach é seo (Gaeilge agus Béarla). Láithreoir: Ian Ó Caoimh Aíonna: Alan Titley agus Réaltán Ní Leannáin [Leagan Gaeilge thuas] Five Connemara short stories by five men from Connemara. But this is not the Connemara of the John Hinde postcards, of lofty mountains, sandy beaches, deep-blue lakes, of red-haired children on bogs. This is a place of grinding poverty, of relentless hardship, of tragic personal loss, of dreams made and lost, a Connemara of isolation and loneliness. This is Connemara as seen from the inside, powerful, gritty, down-to-earth stories of the west of Ireland in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. This is a bilingual collection (English and Irish). Presenter: Ian Ó Caoimh Guests: Alan Titley and Réaltán Ní Leannáin

Fear as Conamara ag réiteach le rothaíocht trasna Mheiriceá ar son carthanachta.

The American folk music collector Sidney Robertson Cowell (1903-1995) has been marginalized in the histories of the many places where she worked during her twenty-year career, including North America, Europe, India, Asia, and the Middle East. The talk focuses specifically on her work in Ireland on the music of Conamara and the Aran Islands in 1955 and 1956, work that is largely unknown to music historians, ethnomusicologists, and folklorists. It presents for the first time to an American audience new research on Cowell's international work, research that has yielded fascinating insights into her oeuvre.
