Podcasts about Dublin

We often tie celebration to big achievements, but what if it's really about the simple, intentional act of acknowledgment? We get honest about that sneaky little voice of jealousy that sometimes makes us withhold a high-five, and discuss why practicing celebration anyway—even when it's uncomfortable—is important. Celebration is contagious. It's intentional time set aside for honing in on someone—who they are or what they've accomplished—and it promotes a kind of magnetic joy.

Overview This special episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast was recorded live at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and PCOM Symposium in collaboration with Pathobiome Perspectives. Hosted by Ali Moresco in partnership with Nikki Schultek, Executive Director of AlzPI, the conversation brings the Tick Boot Camp mission of exploring infection-associated chronic illness (IACI), like Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases, to the global Alzheimer's and neuroimmunology research community. Tick Boot Camp co-founders Matt Sabatello and Rich Johannesen partnered with Ali and Nikki to highlight scientists whose work connects tick-borne illness, microbes, and cognitive decline. This episode features Dr. Brian J. Balin, an internationally recognized neuroscientist whose research has redefined the role of infection in contributing to Alzheimer's disease. Guest Brian J. Balin, PhD Professor of Neuroscience and Neuropathology Director, Center for Chronic Disorders of Aging Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Dr. Balin directs the Center for Chronic Disorders of Aging and the Adolph and Rose Levis Foundation Laboratory for Alzheimer's Disease Research at PCOM. With a PhD from the University of Maryland School of Medicine and postdoctoral training at the University of Pennsylvania, he has devoted nearly three decades to understanding how chronic infection and inflammation trigger neurodegeneration. His pioneering discovery that the respiratory bacterium Chlamydia pneumoniae infects brain tissue helped establish the Pathogen Hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease. His continuing work explores how tick-borne microbes — including Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease), Bartonella, and Babesia — interact with other pathogens to drive neuroinflammation and cognitive decline. Key Discussion Points How infections such as Chlamydia pneumoniae, Borrelia burgdorferi, Bartonella, and Babesia were detected in Alzheimer's brain tissue. Evidence that microbes can enter the brain via the olfactory pathway or blood-brain barrier, initiating chronic inflammation, amyloid plaque formation, and tau tangle pathology. Findings from Dr. Balin's collaboration with Galaxy Diagnostics and advocate Nicole Bell, revealing polymicrobial infection and even Babesia otocoli — a strain previously believed to infect only deer — in human brain tissue. The use of animal models and 3D human brain organoids to study infection-driven neurodegeneration. Why identifying infection as part of the exposome (environmental insults over a lifetime) is key to developing precision diagnostics and treatments. Future directions: immune-modulating drugs, antimicrobials, and emerging phage therapy. “Infection is part of the exposome — an environmental insult that shapes our health over a lifetime. Recognizing that is key to truly understanding and preventing Alzheimer's disease.” — Dr. Brian J. Balin Why It Matters Dr. Balin's research bridges the worlds of neurology and infectious disease, offering a framework that could revolutionize how Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative conditions are diagnosed and treated. By recognizing that microbes — including those transmitted by ticks — can initiate neuroinflammation and cognitive decline, his work provides hope for millions living with infection-associated chronic illness. About the Event The interview took place at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Symposium, October 3, 2025, Ohio University in Dublin, Ohio. The Symposium brought together more than 20 experts exploring how microbes, the microbiome, and the host immune response contribute to neurological and psychiatric diseases such as Alzheimer's, dementia, and PANS/PANDAS. Tick Boot Camp partnered with Ali Moresco and Nikki Schultek to document and share the voices of scientists advancing research on infection-associated chronic illness (IACI). This episode is part of a special series showcasing how pathobiome and microbiome science is changing our understanding of chronic Lyme and neurodegenerative disease.

Executive geologist and board director Caoilin Chestnutt joins us in The Crib Room, sharing her remarkable journey from accidentally enrolling in geology at Trinity College Dublin to becoming a trailblazer in Australia's mining sector. In our chat, Caoilin offers expertise spanning gold, coal and critical minerals exploration. We examine the stark differences between commodity cycles, highlighting how metallurgical coal's recent designation as a critical mineral by the US could reshape global perceptions. Caoilin champions Queensland's world-class met coal assets whilst addressing the industry's exploration crisis, where discovery rates lag far behind depletion. She advocates for unified industry messaging similar to the CSG sector's successful reputation turnaround, and reveals exciting innovations including bioprospecting – using plants and microbes to detect deep ore bodies. From discussing asset attractiveness amid divestment trends to how the pubs of Dublin stack up against Moranbah's Black Nugget, Caoilin delivers exceptional insights on mining in Queensland, Australia and the world.

How did Ireland become a food destination? Thanks go to chefs like John Coffey of Athlone's Thyme Restaurant and Belfast's Niall McKenna of the Waterman House, both past Irish Stew guests.But ask those chefs that question and they'll thank their lucky stars for the local producers who supply the fresh vegetables, fruit, meat, seafood, and dairy that make their cooking soar.So Irish Stew went Off the Beaten Craic to Daingean, Co. Offaly, to talk with two farmers on the vanguard of Ireland's organic agriculture boom in an historic Georgian farmhouse at the heart of Mount Briscoe Organic Farm.Margaret Edgill set aside her marketing and event planning career in Dublin to take over Mount Briscoe, which her family has farmed for seven generations. Joining her for the conversation was her Geashill, Co. Offaly neighbor Pippa Hackett, also an organic farmer and Ireland's former Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.Margaret describes the privilege of stewarding Mount Briscoe and the many ways she's infusing renewed life and new ideas into the land with a mix of organic beef production, upscale B&B accommodations, a shade more rustic “glamping” experiences, artisan food production, memorable farm-to-fork experiences, and public programs designed to celebrate the traditions and vitality of rural life.Pippa draws on her background in science and public service to champion greener, more sustainable farming practices, sharing insights shaped by her years on the farm and in government. “If you have a healthy environment and a healthy farm, you're going to have healthy animals and produce healthy foods,” she says, adding that with organic farming, “There's a great sort of magic in it--you actually have to do less work to get more."The pair delve into Ireland's “Origin Green” brand, the ongoing debate between organic and conventional farming methods, the lopsided economics that farmers juggle, the benefits of Irish people consuming Irish produce, and how hands-on rural experiences can counteract the growing urban disconnect with what's on their plates.Margaret offers her “wellies-on-the-ground” perspectives as both a farmer and owner of an agritourism business adding to the Hidden Heartlands tourism mix, talking up Ireland's potential as a green island destination, sharing how North Americans come to Mount Briscoe seeking heritage, tranquility, and authentic farm experiences, how guests look to disconnect with a digital detox, and how as climate change is making traditionally hot destinations less appealing, she's seeing first-hand the growing appeal “cool-cationing” in Ireland…even with its rainy days.And it was a rainy day indeed when Irish Stew visited Mount Briscoe Farm, but to cohosts John and Martin, the lush fields looked all the greener for it.Next week Irish Stew visits another Offlay farm and slogs through a bog to explore the innovative Peatlands for Prosperity initiative.LinksMargaret EdgillLinkedInInstagramFacebookMount Briscoe FarmWebsiteInstagramFacebookPippa HackettWebsiteLinkedInInstagram

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo once again dominated headlines over the past few days both on and off the pitch. The most talked-about event was his shocking red card during an international fixture against Ireland, which marked the very first time the Portuguese superstar has ever been sent off in over 220 appearances for his national team. The moment was met with relentless boos and jeers from the Irish crowd in Dublin, and video of the incident quickly went viral as fans speculated whether the suspension might impact his availability for Portugal's World Cup 2026 opener, a subject of fierce debate on social media and among pundits according to Economic Times. Almost immediately, Ronaldo responded publicly for the first time via his official channels, posting a message of defiance and unity for his Portugal teammates, urging them to remain focused and positive no matter the circumstances. His message was widely shared, reading, "Go team! All together today and forever! For Portugal and for our flag!" according to Goal. He later returned to social media with a more cryptic message after Al Nassr's final Pro League game, sharing a moody image of himself in his club colors and writing, "This is over. The story still being. Thanks to all," fueling speculation about his club future as reported by AOL and generating major headlines about a possible departure from Saudi Arabia.Media houses like Marca and Reuters fueled the rumor mill by reporting that a major Brazilian club had reached out to Ronaldo's agents about a move for next year's FIFA Club World Cup in the United States, though sources from Wydad Casablanca clarified that their approach was just idle talk. During this tense period, Ronaldo made a notable public appearance, maintaining his signature composure and optimism ahead of the 2026 World Cup, even as reporters pressed him about his controversial red card, future plans, and the rumors swirling on every platform from X to Instagram. Performance-wise, Ronaldo closed the Saudi Pro League season as its top scorer yet again, recording his 25th goal and helping Al Nassr clinch third place and qualify for the upcoming AFC Champions League, per Transfermarkt via AOL. With his contract up at season's end, the world is watching to see whether this chapter ends quietly or with a bombshell transfer now teased by his social media ambiguity and the international headlines that follow his every move.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

The Coalition deciding on its formal net zero climate position; Britain to announce massive changes to its asylum seeker policies; The Wallabies record a major loss to Ireland in their Dublin tour match.

Unionists felt that Margaret Thatcher was someone they could trust so when she signed the Anglo-Irish Agreement giving Dublin the right to be consulted over NI, unionists felt utterly betrayed and they were outraged. The UUP leader Jim Molyneax even called it an “an evil document.” Tens of thousands of unionists took to the streets of Belfast, a day forever remembered due to the DUP leader Ian Paisley's “never, never, never” speech. Professor Fergal Cochrane, Alex Kane, Professor Graham Walker, and Dr. Peter McLaughlin explain what happens when the Anglo-Irish Agreement is revealed and why. Hosted on Acast.

ITP - 134 A huge welcome to Rita Bateson of Eblana Learning, who unpacks the real-world mess and magic of AI in education. She takes listeners through her globe-trotting career from Dublin to Rome, Bermuda, Germany, and the IB, weaving in how AI is reshaping classrooms, assessment, teacher workload, academic integrity, and student habits. Rita explains the Overton Window of AI discourse, why teachers need both AI literacy and healthy skepticism, and how schools can balance innovation with ethics, sustainability, and good old-fashioned human expertise.The hosts dig into critical thinking, cognitive offloading, phone-free schools, environmental costs of AI, and why students' inch-wide, mile-deep use of AI demands that teachers develop broader understanding. Rita also shares the mission behind Eblana Learning, their AI curriculum, PD academy, and her drive to support leaders navigating AI without panic or techno-worship. Add in some delightfully unhinged international misadventure stories (Swiss banks, English “interpreter” classes), and you've got an episode loaded with insight, humor, and brutally honest guidance for teachers worldwide.Rita is a Cofounder of Eblana LearningThe full link is https://eblanalearning.com/If you need Rita as an Italian interpreter, here is her LinkedIN profile link.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery interviews Gregory Betts, one of the poets behind the collaboration, Muttertongue: what is a word in utter space (Exile Editions, 2025) – by Lillian Allen (Toronto' s seventh Poet Laureate, a dub poet, writer, and Juno Award winner), Gary Barwin (poet, writer, composer, multimedia artist, performer, and educator), and Gregory Betts (whose writing explores the boundaries between self, other, and alien – the radical other). This is a collaborative collection that crackles in its exploration of land, language, and page space. Combining the intensity of Dub Poetry with the intricacies of experimental poetics, Muttertongue presents a sonorous soundscape echoing with the question of where (and why) is here (hear). The book opens with a dialogue between the three authors, and concludes with an Afterword by Kaie Kellough. The release of the book recedes a new music LP by the three authors (June of 2025). This is a project by the Muttertongue Trio: Allen • Barwin • Betts. Lillian Allen is the 7th Poet Laureate of Toronto and a professor of creative writing at Ontario College of Art and Design University. She is a two time JUNO award winner and trailblazer in the field of spoken word and dub poetry.

C'est une page sombre de l'histoire irlandaise. Jusqu'à la fin des années 1970, des milliers d'enfants, pauvres ou orphelins, étaient placés par les tribunaux, sous la tutelle de religieuses, dans des institutions censées les éduquer. Or, ces « écoles » dites industrielles furent souvent le théâtre de violences – physiques, psychologiques et sexuelles –, infligées à des générations d'enfants. Quatre survivants, trois femmes et un homme, ont vécu pendant près de deux mois dans la rue, devant le Parlement de Dublin. Emmitouflée dans plusieurs pulls, Miriam se tient devant la tente qu'elle a partagée avec trois autres survivants durant 52 jours. Placée bébé à l'école industrielle de Tralee, dans l'ouest de l'Irlande, elle raconte, à 68 ans aujourd'hui, l'enfer que les religieuses faisaient subir aux enfants « La première chose que les Sœurs faisaient, c'est te voler ton nom pour t'attribuer un numéro : le mien, c'était 1-0-6-1. Elles t'arrachaient ta personnalité, ta dignité, ta voix… Nous n'allions jamais nulle part, nous n'avions ni dentifrice, ni savon, et jamais d'eau chaude. Nos journées se résumaient à coudre, à travailler, pour des gens de dehors. Et pour cela, nous n'avons jamais été payés », témoigne-t-elle. En plus du travail forcé, les religieuses – dont la « charité » n'avaient que le nom – infligeaient aux enfants violences et humiliations. « Elles t'attachaient nue à un lit, l'une d'elles comptait, et elles te frappaient cent fois. Et elles forçaient tes frères et sœurs, et tes amis, à regarder… », se souvient-elle avec effroi. Ces écoles industrielles font partie de ces institutions gérées conjointement par l'État irlandais et l'Église, tout au long du XXe siècle. L'un des plus grands scandales du pays, au même titre que les couvents de la Madeleine, où plus de 30 000 femmes – considérées impures – étaient condamnées à travailler sans relâche, exploitées par les nonnes. Selon James Gallen, professeur et spécialiste des institutions religieuses à la Dublin City University (DCU), après huit siècles de domination britannique, l'Église catholique a su profiter à cette époque de la fragilité d'un État tout juste sorti de la guerre civile pour étendre son emprise. « L'Irlande nouvellement indépendante était en proie à une profonde insécurité sur son identité. On craignait de découvrir que les Irlandais étaient incapables de se gouverner eux-mêmes, que notre idéal d'une Irlande sainte et catholique n'était qu'une illusion. C'est pourquoi les autorités étaient très déterminées à présenter l'Irlande comme un pays moralement pur », explique-t-il. Depuis presque deux mois, les quatre survivants affirmaient ne vivre que d'eau et de café. Et pourtant, rien n'a entamé la force du groupe, selon Miriam : « Je pense que c'est parce que nous avons souffert enfants : nous sommes des survivants, et c'est pour ça que nous sommes plus forts qu'ils ne le pensent. Ils commencent seulement à comprendre la résilience et la détermination que nous avons. Nous resterons ici jusqu'à ce que nous obtenions ce que le gouvernement nous a promis. » Et c'est enfin chose faite ! Mardi, le Premier ministre irlandais, Micheál Martin, les a appelés à mettre fin à leur mouvement. Les grévistes de la faim devraient désormais bénéficier de soins médicaux gratuits, ainsi que d'un soutien financier. Le soulagement pour Miriam, qui dit s'être battue non seulement pour elle, mais aussi pour les 4 000 autres survivants des écoles industrielles irlandaises.  À lire aussiIrlande: exhumation de 796 bébés d'un foyer religieux, «nous pensions que ce jour n'arriverait jamais»

Talking Identity, Grit & Rebirth Through Music with ARYEL MOONIt's a Friday afternoon — my favourite time to record — that magical moment when the week is done, the fear has lifted, and you can just be—perfect timing, then, to sit down with someone who brings their own props to the party. I had a disco ball; my guest had a glowing cube. Beat that.This week on MyMusic, I'm joined by the extraordinary Aryel Moon — or should I say, Donatella, because as you'll hear, identity is a layered, shifting, powerful thing for this artist. What began as a solo project has evolved into a band: a collective of voices, roots, accents, and influences that somehow, beautifully, feel like home.In this episode, we talk about:✨ Floating roots and found belonging — from Sardinia to Bologna, Edinburgh to Balbriggan, and how accents become a map of the soul.✨ The alter ego as armour and liberation — why “ARYEL” protects “Donatella,” and how the two now coexist.✨ Falling out of music — and climbing back into it — the emotional cost of being silenced, and the spark that brought songwriting roaring back.✨ Growing up on distortion and riot grrrl — from Sonic Youth to L7 to Bikini Kill, and how Irish grit now mixes with Italian fire.✨ Why every great singer once hated their own voice — and how connection, not perfection, is the real magic.✨ The Cranberries, freedom songs, and healing — how "Dreams" helped soundtrack her rebirth.✨ The absolute necessity of funding the arts — and stuffing cash into the pockets (if they have them) of gigging musicians.✨ Their debut EP — dropping 20th November, with a launch show in Dublin on the 28th.Aryel Moon are fresh, fierce and full of heart — an alt-rock sound that is Irish in spirit, European in roots, and utterly their own.And trust me: punk is their favourite colour.Stick around to the end to hear how you can support them, buy the music, and maybe even buy the T-shirt (I've demanded one).

Live from Morgan Stanley's European Tech, Media and Telecom Conference in Barcelona, our roundtable of analysts discusses tech disruptions and datacenter growth, and how Europe factors in.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Paul Walsh: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European Head of Research Product. Today we return to my conversation with Adam Wood. Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology. We were live on stage at Morgan Stanley's 25th TMT Europe conference. We had so much to discuss around the themes of AI enablers, semiconductors, and telcos. So, we are back with a concluding episode on tech disruption and data center investments. It's Thursday the 13th of November at 8am in Barcelona. After speaking with the panel about the U.S. being overweight AI enablers, and the pockets of opportunity in Europe, I wanted to ask them about AI disruption, which has been a key theme here in Europe. I started by asking Adam how he was thinking about this theme. Adam Wood: It's fascinating to see this year how we've gone in most of those sectors to how positive can GenAI be for these companies? How well are they going to monetize the opportunities? How much are they going to take advantage internally to take their own margins up? To flipping in the second half of the year, mainly to, how disruptive are they going to be? And how on earth are they going to fend off these challenges? Paul Walsh: And I think that speaks to the extent to which, as a theme, this has really, you know, built momentum. Adam Wood: Absolutely. And I mean, look, I think the first point, you know, that you made is absolutely correct – that it's very difficult to disprove this. It's going to take time for that to happen. It's impossible to do in the short term. I think the other issue is that what we've seen is – if we look at the revenues of some of the companies, you know, and huge investments going in there. And investors can clearly see the benefit of GenAI. And so investors are right to ask the question, well, where's the revenue for these businesses? You know, where are we seeing it in info services or in IT services, or in enterprise software. And the reality is today, you know, we're not seeing it. And it's hard for analysts to point to evidence that – well, no, here's the revenue base, here's the benefit that's coming through. And so, investors naturally flip to, well, if there's no benefit, then surely, we should focus on the risk. So, I think we totally understand, you know, why people are focused on the negative side of things today. I think there are differences between the sub-sectors. I mean, I think if we look, you know, at IT services, first of all, from an investor point of view, I think that's been pretty well placed in the losers' buckets and people are most concerned about that sub-sector… Paul Walsh: Something you and the global team have written a lot about. Adam Wood: Yeah, we've written about, you know, the risk of disruption in that space, the need for those companies to invest, and then the challenges they face. But I mean, if we just keep it very, very simplistic. If Gen AI is a technology that, you know, displaces labor to any extent – companies that have played labor arbitrage and provide labor for the last 20 - 25 years, you know, they're going to have to make changes to their business model. So, I think that's understandable. And they're going to have to demonstrate how they can change and invest and produce a business model that addresses those concerns. I'd probably put info services in the middle. But the challenge in that space is you have real identifiable companies that have emerged, that have a revenue base and that are challenging a subset of the products of those businesses. So again, it's perfectly understandable that investors would worry. In that context, it's not a potential threat on the horizon. It's a real threat that exists today against certainly their businesses. I think software is probably the most interesting. I'd put it in the kind of final bucket where I actually believe… Well, I think first of all, we certainly wouldn't take the view that there's no risk of disruption and things aren't going to change. Clearly that is going to be the case. I think what we'd want to do though is we'd want to continue to use frameworks that we've used historically to think about how software companies differentiate themselves, what the barriers to entry are. We don't think we need to throw all of those things away just because we have GenAI, this new set of capabilities. And I think investors will come back most easily to that space. Paul Walsh: Emett, you talked a little bit there before about the fact that you haven't seen a huge amount of progress or additional insight from the telco space around AI; how AI is diffusing across the space. Do you get any discussions around disruption as it relates to telco space? Emmet Kelly: Very, very little. I think the biggest threat that telcos do see is – it is from the hyperscalers. So, if I look at and separate the B2C market out from the B2B, the telcos are still extremely dominant in the B2C space, clearly. But on the B2B space, the hyperscalers have come in on the cloud side, and if you look at their market share, they're very, very dominant in cloud – certainly from a wholesale perspective. So, if you look at the cloud market shares of the big three hyperscalers in Europe, this number is courtesy of my colleague George Webb. He said it's roughly 85 percent; that's how much they have of the cloud space today. The telcos, what they're doing is they're actually reselling the hyperscale service under the telco brand name. But we don't see much really in terms of the pure kind of AI disruption, but there are concerns definitely within the telco space that the hyperscalers might try and move from the B2B space into the B2C space at some stage. And whether it's through virtual networks, cloudified networks, to try and get into the B2C space that way. Paul Walsh: Understood. And Lee maybe less about disruption, but certainly adoption, some insights from your side around adoption across the tech hardware space? Lee Simpson: Sure. I think, you know, it's always seen that are enabling the AI move, but, but there is adoption inside semis companies as well, and I think I'd point to design flow. So, if you look at the design guys, they're embracing the agentic system thing really quickly and they're putting forward this capability of an agent engineer, so like a digital engineer. And it – I guess we've got to get this right. It is going to enable a faster time to market for the design flow on a chip. So, if you have that design flow time, that time to market. So, you're creating double the value there for the client. Do you share that 50-50 with them? So, the challenge is going to be exactly as Adam was saying, how do you monetize this stuff? So, this is kind of the struggle that we're seeing in adoption. Paul Walsh: And Emmett, let's move to you on data centers. I mean, there are just some incredible numbers that we've seen emerging, as it relates to the hyperscaler investment that we're seeing in building out the infrastructure. I know data centers is something that you have focused tremendously on in your research, bringing our global perspectives together. Obviously, Europe sits within that. And there is a market here in Europe that might be more challenged. But I'm interested to understand how you're thinking about framing the whole data center story? Implications for Europe. Do European companies feed off some of that U.S. hyperscaler CapEx? How should we be thinking about that through the European lens? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. So, big question, Paul. What… Paul Walsh: We've got a few minutes! Emmet Kelly: We've got a few minutes. What I would say is there was a great paper that came out from Harvard just two weeks ago, and they were looking at the scale of data center investments in the United States. And clearly the U.S. economy is ticking along very, very nicely at the moment. But this Harvard paper concluded that if you take out data center investments, U.S. economic growth today is actually zero. Paul Walsh: Wow. Emmet Kelly: That is how big the data center investments are. And what we've said in our research very clearly is if you want to build a megawatt of data center capacity that's going to cost you roughly $35 million today. Let's put that number out there. 35 million. Roughly, I'd say 25… Well, 20 to 25 million of that goes into the chips. But what's really interesting is the other remaining $10 million per megawatt, and I like to call that the picks and shovels of data centers; and I'm very convinced there is no bubble in that area whatsoever.So, what's in that area? Firstly, the first building block of a data center is finding a powered land bank. And this is a big thing that private equity is doing at the moment. So, find some real estate that's close to a mass population that's got a good fiber connection. Probably needs a little bit of water, but most importantly needs some power. And the demand for that is still infinite at the moment. Then beyond that, you've got the construction angle and there's a very big shortage of labor today to build the shells of these data centers. Then the third layer is the likes of capital goods, and there are serious supply bottlenecks there as well.And I could go on and on, but roughly that first $10 million, there's no bubble there. I'm very, very sure of that. Paul Walsh: And we conducted some extensive survey work recently as part of your analysis into the global data center market. You've sort of touched on a few of the gating factors that the industry has to contend with. That survey work was done on the operators and the supply chain, as it relates to data center build out. What were the key conclusions from that? Emmet Kelly: Well, the key conclusion was there is a shortage of power for these data centers, and… Paul Walsh: Which I think… Which is a sort of known-known, to some extent. Emmet Kelly: it is a known-known, but it's not just about the availability of power, it's the availability of green power. And it's also the price of power is a very big factor as well because energy is roughly 40 to 45 percent of the operating cost of running a data center. So, it's very, very important. And of course, that's another area where Europe doesn't screen very well.I was looking at statistics just last week on the countries that have got the highest power prices in the world. And unsurprisingly, it came out as UK, Ireland, Germany, and that's three of our big five data center markets. But when I looked at our data center stats at the beginning of the year, to put a bit of context into where we are…Paul Walsh: In Europe… Emmet Kelly: In Europe versus the rest. So, at the end of [20]24, the U.S. data center market had 35 gigawatts of data center capacity. But that grew last year at a clip of 30 percent. China had a data center bank of roughly 22 gigawatts, but that had grown at a rate of just 10 percent. And that was because of the chip issue. And then Europe has capacity, or had capacity at the end of last year, roughly 7 to 8 gigawatts, and that had grown at a rate of 10 percent. Now, the reason for that is because the three big data center markets in Europe are called FLAP-D. So, it's Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. We had to put an acronym on it. So, Flap-D. Good news. I'm sitting with the tech guys. They've got even more acronyms than I do, in their sector, so well done them. Lee Simpson: Nothing beats FLAP-D. Paul Walsh: Yes. Emmet Kelly: It's quite an achievement. But what is interesting is three of the big five markets in Europe are constrained. So, Frankfurt, post the Ukraine conflict. Ireland, because in Ireland, an incredible statistic is data centers are using 25 percent of the Irish power grid. Compared to a global average of 3 percent.Now I'm from Dublin, and data centers are running into conflict with industry, with housing estates. Data centers are using 45 percent of the Dublin grid, 45. So, there's a moratorium in building data centers there. And then Amsterdam has the classic semi moratorium space because it's a small country with a very high population. So, three of our five markets are constrained in Europe. What is interesting is it started with the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The UK has made great strides at attracting data center money and AI capital into the UK and the current Prime Minister continues to do that. So, the UK has definitely gone; moved from the middle lane into the fast lane. And then Macron in France. He hosted an AI summit back in February and he attracted over a 100 billion euros of AI and data center commitments. Paul Walsh: And I think if we added up, as per the research that we published a few months ago, Europe's announced over 350 billion euros, in proposed investments around AI. Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. It's a good stat. Now where people can get a little bit cynical is they can say a couple of things. Firstly, it's now over a year since the Mario Draghi report came out. And what's changed since? Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. And secondly, when I look at powering AI, I like to compare Europe to what's happening in the United States. I mean, the U.S. is giving access to nuclear power to AI. It started with the three Mile Island… Paul Walsh: Yeah. The nuclear renaissance is… Emmet Kelly: Nuclear Renaissance is absolutely huge. Now, what's underappreciated is actually Europe has got a massive nuclear power bank. It's right up there. But unfortunately, we're decommissioning some of our nuclear power around Europe, so we're going the wrong way from that perspective. Whereas President Trump is opening up the nuclear power to AI tech companies and data centers. Then over in the States we also have gas and turbines. That's a very, very big growth area and we're not quite on top of that here in Europe. So, looking at this year, I have a feeling that the Americans will probably increase their data center capacity somewhere between – it's incredible – somewhere between 35 and 50 percent. And I think in Europe we're probably looking at something like 10 percent again. Paul Walsh: Okay. Understood. Emmet Kelly: So, we're growing in Europe, but we're way, way behind as a starting point. And it feels like the others are pulling away. The other big change I'd highlight is the Chinese are really going to accelerate their data center growth this year as well. They've got their act together and you'll see them heading probably towards 30 gigs of capacity by the end of next year. Paul Walsh: Alright, we're out of time. The TMT Edge is alive and kicking in Europe. I want to thank Emmett, Lee and Adam for their time and I just want to wish everybody a great day today. Thank you.(Applause) That was my conversation with Adam, Emmett and Lee. Many thanks again to them.

On December 8th of that year, he left his office in Dublin around 4:00 a.m. and was last seen on CCTV footage walking near Haddington Road. Despite extensive investigations, Trevor was never found. His case remains one of Ireland's most enduring missing person mysteries. In the years following his disappearance, numerous theories and tips emerged, but none have led to a definitive conclusion. His family has continually sought answers, urging authorities and the public to assist. The case remains open, and Trevor Deely is presumed missing, with no confirmed evidence of what happened to him after that evening.

Oscar Wilde is remembered as one of the greatest Victorian writers, with diverse works including comedies, morality tales for children, biblical dramas and even a gothic novel.

Alongside his literary renown, Wilde is revered as a martyr for LGBTQ+ rights. How did a young man from Dublin become such a famous author in England and beyond?
