rWotD Episode 2926: Goldbeat Welcome to Random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Thursday, 8 May 2025, is Goldbeat.Goldbeat was an AM radio station broadcasting on 828 kHz in Cookstown, Northern Ireland. It was launched in 1995 as Townland Radio, but was purchased in 1997 by media tycoon Owen Oyston who had already bought and relaunched Belfast Community Radio in 1996 (now Belfast CityBeat). The Oyston group relaunched Townland Radio as Goldbeat 828, but the station folded in 1999 along with sister station Heartbeat 1521 AM (formally Radio 1521) in Craigavon. Both AM licences were handed back to the then UK regulator The Radio Authority (now Ofcom). At the time only one other radio licence in the UK had ever been handed back to the regulator.After years of campaigning by locals for the re-advertising of a radio licence for Mid-Ulster, Ofcom awarded an FM licence for the area to Belfast CityBeat (now owned by CN group) in 2002. Belfast CityBeat launched Mid FM from the same premises previously occupied by Townland Radio/Goldbeat at Park Avenue, Cookstown in County Tyrone. In 2006 Belfast Citybeat sold their majority stake in Mid FM to Northern Media, owners of 7FM in Ballymena.Mid FM was rebranded to 6FM in 2006 and changed name again to Q106/7 FM in November 2011.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:42 UTC on Thursday, 8 May 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Goldbeat on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Olivia.

This week's special podcast is a look down memory lane at arguably the best boxing gym and stable ever to come out of Ireland, the famous Barney Eastwood stable of the 1980-1990's. Barney Eastwood was born in 1932 in Cookstown, Tyrone. He was a talented Gaelic footballer, winning the All Ireland Minor title in 1948. His love of boxing would begin after watching US soldiers box at the US Army base in Tyrone back in WW2. Barney would start his own bookmakers business in the 1950's and after building an empire, he would turn his attention to his love of boxing. Barney would build a gym and stable of fighters/coaches over the next two decades that would compete with any gym in Europe. Barry McGuigan, Hugh Russell , Herol Graham and Dave McAuley would win World, European and British titles during the 1980's. Who can forget the special nights with Barry McGuigan and the amazing relationship they built together which unfortunately would turn sour years later. By 1992, Paul Hodkinson, Crisanto Espana and Victor Cordoba would also join Dave 'boy' McAuley as World champions. Countless other champions would make their mark in the gym including Ray Close, Sam Storey, Noel Magee, Crawford Ashley as well as future World champions Eamonn Loughran, John Lowey and Steve Collins. Barney Eastwood would end his love affair with boxing by the late 1990's and eventually sell his successful Eastwood's bookmakers chain in a huge multi-million pound deal. He would retire to his home in Holywood with his wife Frances until his sad passing in 2020. He legacy lives on and he will forever be regarded as the 'Godfather of Irish boxing'.

RE:SURE, a security intervention specialist based in Cookstown, is escalating its three-year growth strategy after doubling the size of its business and workforce over the last 14 months. Now employing a team of 60, RE:SURE is supporting its expansion and sales growth by investing £1.2million in the redevelopment of its head office in the Kilcronagh Business Park and creating an additional 10 new jobs. RE:SURE has revolutionised the CCTV/security industry across the UK and Ireland through its 'intelligent' real-time monitoring service, which provides round-the-clock scrutiny of businesses, retailers, employees, private residences and individuals of high net worth. The unique service is considered to be a more effective and highly cost-efficient alternative to having a full team of security guards on site on a 24/7 basis. Unlike other security businesses which operate on a 'record and refer' basis, RE:SURE offers a 'detect and prevent' model. In 2023 alone this resulted in over 10,000 interventions thus preventing crime, theft or damage occurring in the first place. Acquired by the Fortus Group in 2020, RE:SURE works through accredited installation partners to service both the public and private sectors. The company's sales have trebled over the last three years, with customers including national brands and critical infrastructure. Its services range from full scale monitoring and crime intervention of businesses and homes, to providing personal security to individuals through their smart phone. Central to its success is its bespoke AI-enabled technology, developed by experts from Camect, which is customised and embedded within each client's smart CCTV systems. Once installed, the sites are monitored in real-time at RE:SURE's Alarm Recording Centre (ARC) in Cookstown, a totally secure unit which is manned 24/7 by its fully vetted monitoring team. The analytics behind the technology is so precise, RE:SURE acts as a virtual security guard, defining and distinguishing untoward activity, identifying potential criminal behaviour, and if required, intervening through live voice alarms. The company also works closely with the law enforcement bodies as part of its crime prevention role. To accommodate its rapid growth RE:SURE is doubling the size of its headquarters in Cookstown. Due for completion this summer, it will include a new ARC - one of the first in Northern Ireland equipped to BS 50518 standard - as well as a customer service centre and a new training facility. The company is also expanding its network of CCTV installers across the UK and Ireland, aiming to double its partnerships by the end of 2024. Jason Rosborough Managing Director explains RE:SURE's rapid growth rate: "Crime and security management have, and always will be problems for business and the wider economy. As crime becomes more sophisticated, so too must the response to tackling it." "While CCTV is part of the solution, we've taken the concept to the next level by combining the latest monitoring technology, backed by our highly skilled team to detect and prevent crime from occurring in the first place. "We've enjoyed great success to date and now need to scale the business to the next level, expanding our offering to different sectors and market segments via our trusted and accredited install partners. This creates excellent opportunities for those who want to be part of a dynamic business which is offering a futuristic solution to a centuries old problem." See more stories here.

International Women's Day was officially declared in March 1911 with the backing of more than a million people who called for an end to discrimination and for women to work, vote, hold public office, etc. Today it is celebrated by millions worldwide as a time to reflect on advancement and honour women, advancing the movement for gender equality. As we commemorate International Women's Day 31 years later and celebrate this throughout March, we are moving into an uncertain future. We all know that businesses can be fragile, but what's less well-known is how to create one with the right mindset. The following advice will help you avoid common pitfalls and build your own resilient business from scratch!We spoke to Johanne Leduc, A Resilient Business Owner. The Cookstown Foodland isn't new, but the owner is. With years of experience as an Orangeville grocery store owner, Johanne Leduc was quite comfortable taking on ownership of the 24-hour Foodland. She purchased the store so she could provide customers with matchless offers and irresistible deals. Johanne's father has always been her mentor and inspiration. When she entered the Tottenham Foodland store in 2012, she used the lessons she learned from her father to embark on a new journey. One towards building a grocery store that not only reflected her community but increased its overall value by becoming a shopping hub to encourage people to shop locally.Even after 25 years, Johanne is just as dedicated to the Sobeys company. She currently owns two stores, the one in Tottenham and the Foodland in Cookstown that she recently purchased. While operating two stores has come with a lot of challenges, it's also been very rewarding for Johanne.In this podcast, Johanne shared her career journey into the grocery industry, how she overcame stigma working in a male-dominated industry and what career success means to her.

It was the weekend when Richard Keys and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer agreed: the Game's gone. We know that - but why? Also today, Ken unveils a controversial new theory: how will Eoin respond? Today is a heavily Ulster-inflected pod, with Cookstown's Stuart Dallas galloping through and Carnlough's Brendan Rodgers letting us in on some of the many - not secrets, exactly... let's say "principles" - of his (and John Terry's) success.

I was placed as an interim minister in Dave Ward's old parish of Cookstown. My heart still needed healing. But so did theirs. So we ministered to one another, as “wounded healers.” It was a rich and grounding time, reminding me of my familial roots in North Vancouver. I might have been content to stay there. But my ambition drove me to push for an ordination date, which would mean soul work of a different sort. It was time to align my personal life with the life I wanted, as a priest. Some things would have to go. Credit:1st Interlude: sheep in field.mp3 by soundmary / License: Attribution

Following my graduation from Trinity, I was set adrift by my archbishop when he learned that my marriage had broken up. I wouldn't be ordained along with my classmates. But he was willing to give me something, so he sent me as the chaplain to a church camp. It proved to be just what my wounded soul needed. Then, at the end of the summer, he placed me as student-in-charge of a familiar rural congregation, Cookstown, that had been recently abandoned by its familiar minister, Dave Ward. An odd and unconventional start, perhaps, to my ministry. Not being exactly the conventional type, I took it. But it was a small town, and I was a city boy. Nothing about my life would go unnoticed.

In this episode I talk to Keeva about her first experiences of dance music via Fatboy Slim from a boat near Port Rush to her first gigs in the local Cookstown venues. We chat about the effects of lockdown and her plan for emerging back into our new normal. We touch on the added pressures of being female in such a male dominated industry and Keeva gives some advice to any aspiring female DJs and anyone procrastinating to much about making that first step into production. Lets' get into it…

In 1869, in a town called Cookstown, County Tyrone, a woman was born.This woman was born into poverty as a result of being the child of famine survivors.In the hope of a better life, in 1883 she left the Emerald Isle, got on a boat and set sail for New York.There, she would live with an uncle and aunt who had left during the famine and begin to make a life for herself.It was in New York, she rose to eternal fame.

Hello, Ni hao, G’day, welcome to another episode of rambunctious fun and games from those Nerds we all love. We wish to say an especially warm welcome to our friends in China, and thank you for listening, you are awesome. Now this week we have Buck up first with news about the rise of the machines. Now please note we said rise, not uprising, two totally different things which we explain in the show. We discuss the different attitudes between countries like Japan who are excited to see advancement in AI and robotics; compared to the sad grumpy people in Hollywood who think Robots are going to take over the world in a violent revolution. But honestly, if the robots are going to take over can they hurry up, I mean have you looked at what those apes we call politicians are doing to the place? Things are so bad we have idiots somehow gluing themselves to the road, we all learned about glue in at 5 years of age making arts and craft. Even then we never managed to glue ourselves to the floor.Next up we look at France and the judgement against Steam finally coming down. Now this is going to be an interesting topic as we look at some of the ramifications. Plus we ask the real hard hitting question that really defines the situation. That’s right folks, you will hear it here first, are the French gamers really going to care what the courts and government say? Are Valve really going to be concerned about this? If in space no one can hear you scream are all farts silent but violent? Um, yes, well if anyone can answer those let us know, these are truly hard hitting facts that we wish to know.This week we have a review from the DJ on the anime trilogy of Godzilla movies, and wow these are looking really cool. Spoiler, they rock and you should really take the time to go and watch them some time soon. While it is cgi animation it still works well and is a whole lot of fun with the usual Japanese drama that makes Anime so much fun. These movies are Godzilla: Planet of the monsters, Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle, and the last movie Godzilla: The Planet Eater. Check them out and let us know what you think in the Nerds Amalgamated group page on Facebook.As usual we have the games being played, shout out, remembrances, birthdays, and special events. Once again thank you for listening and we hope you enjoyed the episode. Take care of yourselves, look out for each other and stay hydrated.EPISODE NOTES:Rise of the machines - https://techxplore.com/news/2019-09-japan-roboticists-machines.htmlThe case of Steam vs France & China– France -

It was created by theMozilla community members who desired a standalone browser, rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle. During its beta phase, Firefox proved to be popular with its testers and was praised for its speed, security, and add-ons compared to Microsoft's then-dominant Internet Explorer 6. Firefox is the spiritual successor of Netscape Navigator, as the Mozilla community was created by Netscape in 1998 before their acquisition by AOL. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox23 Sept 2019 – Nintendo turns 130 years old. Nintendo Koppai (Later Nintendo Company, Limited) was founded by Fusajiro Yamauchi to produce and market the playing card game Hanafuda. - https://www.vg247.com/2019/09/23/nintendo-turns-130-years-old-today-significant-milestones-figures/Remembrances21 Sept 2019 - Aron Eisenberg, American actor who played Nog, a Ferengi, through all seven seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Although the part called for him to appear under heavy makeup, he appeared without makeup as a news vendor in the episode "Far Beyond the Stars". He later guest-starred as a Kazon called Kar in "Initiations", an episode of Star Trek Voyager, and was a host and producer of the Star Trek themed podcast The 7th Rule. He died at the age of 50 in Los Angeles, California - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aron_Eisenberg21 Sept 2019 - Sigmund Jähn, Germancosmonaut and pilot who in 1978 became the first German to fly into space as part of the Soviet Union's Interkosmos programme. He flew on board Soyuz 31, launched 26 August 1978 to the Soviet space station Salyut 6, where he conducted experiments in remote sensing of the earth, medicine, biology, materials science, and geophysics. After 124 orbits he returned on Soyuz 29 and landed on 3 September 1978, having spent 7 days, 20 hours, and 49 minutes in space. Because the Soviet and American space programs maintain distinctive vocabularies, he was a cosmonaut rather than an astronaut. During and after the flight, the socialist authorities of the GDR acclaimed him as "the first German in space", emphasizing an East German victory over West Germany. Upon his return he headed the East Germany Army's Cosmonaut Training Center near Moscow until German unification in 1990, when he left the East German military with the rank of major general. Jähn was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union on 3 September 1978. He died at the age of 82 in Strausberg,Brandenburg - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmund_J%C3%A4hn23 Sept 1939 - Sigmund Freud born Sigismund Schlomo Freud, Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. In founding psychoanalysis, Freud developed therapeutic techniques such as the use of free association and discovered transference, establishing its central role in the analytic process. Freud's redefinition of sexuality to include its infantile forms led him to formulate the Oedipus complex as the central tenet of psychoanalytical theory. Nonetheless, Freud's work has suffused contemporary Western thought and popular culture. In the words of W. H. Auden's 1940 poetic tribute to Freud, he had created "a whole climate of opinion / under whom we conduct our different lives." He died from a drug overdose at the age of 83 in Hampstead, London - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmund_FreudFamous Birthdays23 Sept 1869 - Mary Mallon, also known as Typhoid Mary, was an Irish-American cook. She was the first person in the United States identified as an asymptomatic carrier of the pathogen associated with typhoid fever. She was presumed to have infected 51 people, three of whom died, over the course of her career as a cook. She was twice forcibly isolated by public health authorities and died after a total of nearly three decades in isolation. She was born in Cookstown,County Tyrone - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Mallon23 Sept 1897 – Walter Pidgeon, Canadian-American actor. He earned two Academy Award for Best Actor nominations for his roles in Mrs. Miniver and Madame Curie. Pidgeon also starred in many films such as most famously Forbidden Planet which he played as Dr. Morbius. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1960 and a Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award in 1975. He was born in Saint John, New Brunswick - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Pidgeon23 Sept 1917 - Asima Chatterjee, Indian organic chemist noted for her work in the fields of organic chemistry and phytomedicine. Her most notable work includes research on vinca alkaloids, the development of anti-epileptic drugs, and development of anti-malarial drugs. She also authored a considerable volume of work on medicinal plants of the Indian subcontinent. She was the first woman to receive a Doctorate of Science from an Indian university. Chatterjee also wrote around 400 papers which were published in both national and international journals. She was born Calcutta now known as Kolkata - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asima_ChatterjeeEvents of Interest23 Sept 1846 – Astronomers Urbain Jean Joseph Le Verrier, John Couch Adams and Johann Gottfried Galle collaborate on the discovery of Neptune. The planet Neptune was mathematically predicted before it was directly observed. With a prediction by Urbain Le Verrier, telescopic observations confirming the existence of a major planet were made. It was a sensational moment of 19th-century science, and dramatic confirmation of Newtonian gravitational theory. In François Arago's apt phrase, Le Verrier had discovered a planet "with the point of his pen". The discovery of Neptune led to the discovery of its moon Triton by William Lassell just seventeen days later. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_of_Neptune23 Sept 1962 – The Jetsons premiered in prime time with its very first episode, a little bit of lunacy entitled "Rosey the Robot.", it was Hanna-Barbera's Space Age counterpart to The Flintstones. While the Flintstones lived in a world which was a comical version of the "stone age", with machines powered by birds and dinosaurs, the Jetsons live in a comical version of a century in the future, with elaborate robotic contraptions, aliens, holograms, and whimsical inventions. The original series comprised 24 episodes and aired on Sunday nights on ABC America. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jetsons24 Sept 1957 - In 1954, the US Supreme Court ruled in the famous Brown v Board of Education case that segregation of schools in the American South was unconstitutional. Despite this ruling, integrating the schools was not a simple act. The conflict over segregation in schools reached its height at Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas. Nine black students attempted to enroll in 1957, prompting a fierce backlash from the pro-segregation state government of governor Orval Faubus. On September 4, 1957, the Arkansas National Guard were mobilized by Faubus to prevent the integration of the students. The intervention of President Dwight D. Eisenhower proved decisive: he ordered the National Guard be federalized, taking them out of the Governor's control, and ordered the US Army to support the integration of the school. The students were successfully integrated on September 23, 1957. The photo was taken on the 24th of Sept 1957. - https://www.onthisday.com/photos/little-rock-crisisIntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS - http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssGeneral EnquiriesEmail - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.com

Future suffragist, journalist and judge Emily Murphy is born. Emily Ferguson was born into a wealthy and influential Canadian family on March 14, 1868 in Cookstown, Ontario. Years later, she and her Anglican minister husband, Arthur Murphy, moved to Alberta, where she took up the cause of women’s equality. Her constant pressure led the Alberta government to pass the Dower Act in 1911, ensuring the right of a wife to one-third of her husband’s property. When Alberta’s attorney general made Murphy an Edmonton magistrate in 1916, she was the first woman in the British Commonwealth to hold such a position. She pushed for the abolition of drugs and narcotics. Articles she wrote under the pen name Janey Canuck were full of stereotypes and prejudice against racial and ethnic minorities.On her first day as a magistrate, a lawyer challenged her authority, saying women were not “persons” under the British North America Act, and therefore ineligible for appointment to the bench or the Senate of Canada. To silence such opinion, Murphy became one of the “Famous Five” (Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, Irene Parlby and Henrietta Muir Edwards being the other four) who challenged women’s lack of status. Although the Famous Five lost their case at Canada’s Supreme Court, the judicial committee of the Privy Council of the House of Lords in England ruled in their favour on October 18, 1929. Months later, on February 15, 1930, Cairine Wilson was appointed Canada’s first woman senator for Ontario. Murphy died on October 27, 1933. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

SEGMENT 1 – MINDIE BURGOYNE In this podcast, we’re going to talk about the energetic pull of the earth and how people have felt that pull over the ages. If there’s one phrase I hear repeatedly from people who read my posts or come on our tours it’s that they have “felt a pull or a draw” to a particular place. Ireland is frequently mentioned.   Joseph Dispenza in his wonderful little book, The Way of the Traveler states, « All travel is inner travel. » He goes on to say in the introduction…that the « call to travel » is as much a part of the journey as the actual travel itself. Dreaming of the travel... imagining what we’ll see, how we’ll feel, what we may learn, who we may meet … it’s all a part of the entire travel experience and the change --- the inner change that happens to people when they travel.   For some of us, that call to travel or dreaming of travel feels almost like a romance… something out there is pulling us, creating a yearning – a thirst that can’t be quenched until we get to that place. It’s as if the place itself has some power or capability of relationship. Mahatma Ghandi said, “There is an indefinable, mysterious power that pervades everything. I feel it, though I do not see it. It is this unseen power that makes itself felt and yet defies all proof, because it is so unlike all that I perceive through my senses. It transcends the senses.”   Some of you have probably heard about ley lines. This term refers to invisible lines of energy that run through the earth in a grid-like form. Water tends to run along these lines and people with high sensitivity to these lines of earth energy had methods of finding water and springs by connecting with the lines through dowsing – using a forked branch or metal rod. Many of the first nation people used only their open palm stretched out in front of them to feel the energy vibration and locate water … or perhaps they used the lines to for other things … like where to locate sacred ritual spots. We know that many ancient civilizations erected temples, ritual sites, gathering places and burial mounds in straight lines. In fact, the remains of old ritual sites are often found in straight line patterns across the earth. Freemasons tracked energy lines when building and designing castles, cathedrals and burial grounds.   They made use of volcanic plugs – which are places where molten rock hardened in the event of an active volcano « plugging up » so to speak the enormous pressure within the volcano. These are considered power points in the earth.   All of this is very interesting but what does it mean to us as travelers or people who feel drawn to particular places? We don’t know. But the discussion raises interesting questions. Like … can we be affected by that power within the place? Does it help us connect with a higher form of ourselves? help us focus... help us on that inner journey? Are they portals to another dimension? Can we access that other dimension? Let’s talk with Annie Conboy and listen to what she has to say.   SEGMENT 2 – INTERVIEW WITH ANNIE CONBOY Annie Conboy is a spiritual counselor, intuitive medium and energy healer who has been practicing for eleven years publicly. Annie is from Hebdon Bridge in West Yorkshire, England. She is a mother and works full time as an intuitive. Links to Annie Conboy: Annie’s Daily Blog http://annieconboy.net Facebook: Facebook.com/annie.conboy Twitter @annieconboy   SEGMENT 3 - SITE REVIEW   TULLYHOGUE – COUNTY TYRONE   Northern Ireland has such a mystical landscape because much of it has been left untouched by development and tourist intrusion. So, go there while you can before this pristine landscape vanishes with the economic prosperity that comes with enterprise.   You’d never know that just off of an old country road south of Cookstown in County Tyrone was an ancient royal site still well intact. It’s surrounded by beautiful farmland and rolling hills, and the turnoff, while well marked is doesn’t indicate near the fanfare that this powerful site should have.   Tullyhogue. The name means “mound of the young men.” In the eleventh century, it was an inaugural site for the Kings of Ulster – the northern province of Ireland. These would have been the O’Neil’s of Tyrone. The O’Hagans were the stewards who cared for the site and managed the royal gatherings and site rituals. Hugh O’Neill, the last of the chieftains to be crowned here in 1593. Twelve years later, he and the last bit of Irish royalty fled Ireland and the plantation of Ulster began.   There was a great stone chair at Tullyhogue – a coronation chair heaved out of a large boulder. The chair was noted on the map done by Richard Bartlett done in 1602. It shows a rude sketch of the coronation on Tullyhogue with the king seated in the stone chair, which sits atop a hill. A half dozen men standing around him with an O’Hagan holding a single shoe over his head. The notation below it says “Tulloghogé, On this hill the Irish Create their O. Neale.”   The single shoe ritual is remembered as a coronation tradition, but the details of its meaning are sketchy. would be king places shoe or slipper on the coronation site the night before in a gesture meant to “claim the land as his.” At the coronation, the shoe is placed on the royal foot by one of the attending family (in Tullyhogue’s case – that would be an O’Hagan). the shoe may have been thrown over the head of the king as a sign of good luck. The shoe may be connected to the carving of footprints into inaugural stones.   When a king of a clan was crowned : married to the land married to the goddess of the land crowning sites always on hills where the land can be surveyed.   Characteristics of these royal sites on hilltops ring barrows – fort-like structure, also provided the ability to process within the rings and survey the event from an elevation. Linear earthwork avenue – a processional roadway. Sometimes a standing stone, coronations stone or throne. Sites were believed to be places of ritual, - coronations, burials, rituals of connecting to the ancestors of possibly bridging the two worlds – this world and the world beyond.   Tullyhogue is still beautifully intact. While there is no chair – part of the chair is believed to be incorporated into the stone wall of a nearby church. The surrounding landscape is still gorgeous and easy to survey Avenue is still in place, a straight road going up to the hill The earthworks are still in place. There are huge trees now growing in them. The entrance is still open and one can easily imagine the procession and the events that took place here. The stories still hang behind Now it’s been redeveloped – large car park, meandering walkway, benches and interpretive signage.   Tullyhogue is also one of those sites that you want to return to … you want to go back and re-experience what you had there … but every time it’s a little different. Don’t rush when going to this site. Take time to read the signage that tells the stories of the O’Neills, the O’Hagans and what happened on the site. It makes for a rich experience.   Irish Archaeology – Medieval Houses at Tullyhogue fort, Co. Tyrone BBC New – Where Kings of Ulster ‘were crowned’” Sit Dig to Begin     SEGMENT 4 – POEM   Wander-Thirst by Gerald Gould   BEYOND the East the sunrise, beyond the West the sea, And East and West the wander-thirst that will not let me be;   It works in me like madness, dear, to bid me say good-bye; For the seas call, and the stars call, and oh! the call of the sky!   I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are; But a man can have the sun for a friend, and for his guide a star;   And there's no end of voyaging when once the voice is heard, For the rivers call, and the roads call, and oh! the call of the bird!   Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day The old ships draw to home again, the young ships sail away;   And come I may, but go I must, and, if men ask you why, You may put the blame on the stars and the sun and the white road and the sky.   ~Gerald Gould was born in Yorkshire, England in 1885 and died in 1936 in London. He was a journalist and a supporter of women’s suffrage. “Wander-Thirst” is his most quoted work.   The Collected Poems of Gerald Gould             SEGMENT 5 – Mindie recommends   I’m going to end with a book recommendation. The book is The Way of the Traveler – Making Every Trip a Journey of Self Discovery by Joseph Dispenza   This is a little book you can read in a day or read little clips over the course of a week or month. I even have the audiobook and find it great for listening to the car. The book is a collection of reflections on the spiritual aspects of travel, and a call to be changed internally by every travel experience.   Dispanza is a former cloistered monk. He’s also a scholar having taught at American University in DC and the College of Santa Fe in NM. He presents a method of travel that promotes self-discovery and uncovering a life path through travel.   The book has five parts – all stages of travel The Call to Journey - - the Preparation – the Encounter (or actual travel experience) – the Homecoming and Recounting the Tale. The insights communicated in the book aid the individual travel experience in an amazing way. There are concepts to explore, like being fearful of certain travel experiences and how to discover the root of the fear. But there’s also practical advice like what to take with you, bringing back gifts and how to travel so that you will also retain great memories so that can revisit the experience in your imagination.   The book also has scores of quotes and exercises to reinforce the concepts presented in each section.

Vidal receives today April Danann, a medical intuitive, who is in her essence a person deeply committed to fully understanding her body, mind, and soul on the deepest levels. Guided solely by her intuition, she has learned to place all her trust, faith, hope, and belief into her body. She believes that her spiritual journey will take her where she is destined to go. With absolute certainty, she knows her body can heal itself without drugs. Perhaps this is all you need to know about April, however, here are some details about her career: Education - Dip PT — Packaging Technology.  College of Agriculture, Food & Rural Enterprise, Cookstown.   - Dip MI — Medical Intuition.

She'd always longed to live in Europe. Even though she was born and raised on Canada's East coast and loved the fresh air, the wildness and sometimes the snow, she thinks it prepared her for West Cork and the rainy days of Ireland. April has worked as a Medical Intuitive since as long as she can remember. Her interest in food and nutrition were natural companions to her ability to hear the body's voice. Although she left the corporate world when her son was born to work on her own terms, in her own way; it prepared her for all that was to come. Starting something, anything, from scratch is something that comes easily, quite like her West Cork kombucha scobies and apple cider vinegar mothers.
