rWotD Episode 2823: Master of the Rolls (Ireland) 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 Saturday, 25 January 2025 is Master of the Rolls (Ireland).The Master of the Rolls in Ireland was a senior judicial office in the Irish Chancery under English and British rule, and was equivalent to the Master of the Rolls in the English Chancery. Originally called the Keeper of the Rolls, he was responsible for the safekeeping of the Chancery records such as close rolls and patent rolls. The office was created by letters patent in 1333, the first holder of the office being Edmund de Grimsby. As the Irish bureaucracy expanded, the duties of the Master of the Rolls came to be performed by subordinates and the position became a sinecure which was awarded to political allies of the Dublin Castle administration. In the nineteenth century, it became a senior judicial appointment, ranking second within the Court of Chancery behind the Lord Chancellor of Ireland. The post was abolished by the Courts of Justice Act 1924, passed by the Irish Free State established in 1922.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:13 UTC on Saturday, 25 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Master of the Rolls (Ireland) 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 neural Amy.
I'm on a break so to fill the gap here are some of my favourite recipes from the podcast's vaults.Today Neil talks to Susan Flavin and Marc Meltonville about recreating as close as possible beer from the accounts of Dublin Castle right at the end of the 16th century. This investigation is part of a much larger project called Food Cult, which is, according to their website “a five-year project funded by the European Research Council. This project brings together history, archaeology, science and information technology to explore the diet and foodways of diverse communities in early modern Ireland. It will serve as a model for future comparative and interdisciplinary work in the field of historical food studies.”In today's episode we talk about the Food Cult project, the aims of the beer project, misconceptions about beer and beer drinking in the past, when beer becomes porridge, how to source 16th century ingredients and – of course – what the beer tasted like!Follow Susan Flavin on Twitter @flavin_susanFollow Marc on Instagram @marcmeltonvilleMarc Meltonville's website: www.meltonville.uk/The FOOD CULT website: https://foodcult.eu/ Their journal article: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/historical-journal/article/understanding-early-modern-beer-an-interdisciplinary-casestudy/76C118F73B8D35FED9E5B69CB3E966FBThere are 4 Easter eggs associated with this episode, to access them start a monthly £3 subscription.Subscribers get access to all of the Easter eggs, premium blog content and Neil's monthly newsletter.

TURAS ALF / ALF'S JOURNEY: Alf, a 20m x 5m giant puppet of a Smooth Newt, inspired by the current conversations around climate change and habitat loss, will meander through Dublin, visiting multiple city centre locations this Science Week. Supported by Research Ireland, Science Week is the annual week-long celebration of science in our daily lives and takes place across Ireland from 10 - 17 November 2024. This year, Science Week will explore the theme of Regeneration. World-renowned masters of visual storytelling, Macnas, has created Alf the Giant Newt with incorporated lighting, soundtrack and special effects, that will animate the streets of Dublin and delight audiences. Expect Macnas' signature collaborative creativity, electric energy and joyous abandon as Alf the Giant Newt arrives in the capital city. Join us in welcoming Alf on his journey through Dublin city centre on Thursday 14 November, accompanied by drummers, stilted beacons and a cohort of fire performers. This spectacular flaming cavalcade will wend through the city, starting at 19:30 from Capel Street, across the River Liffey via Grattan Bridge, through Parliament Street and onwards to Dublin Castle for 20:30 or, stop by and say hello to Alf at Collins Barracks (12th-13th November, 10am-5pm) as he prepares for his journey. Alf will be taking a well-earned rest at Dublin Castle after his journey across the city, and welcomes visitors at this historic location from 15th-16th November (10am to 9pm)*. Alf is a Smooth Newt, the only member of the tailed amphibians found in Ireland. Uniquely, newts have the amazing ability to regenerate their body parts. They can regenerate parts of their tails, jaws, ears, hearts, spines, eyes and brains. A newt can even completely repair damage to its heart! Newts are small but mighty and are masters of regeneration. Newts are part of a group of 'indicator species' - the health of their population serving as quite a good measure of the health of an environment. They can typically be found in habitats that offer protection from desiccation, such as woodlands. The Smooth Newt also depends on healthy, wetland habitats for its life cycle - protecting these habitats are vital. Celine Fitzgerald, Interim CEO of Research Ireland, said: "We are delighted to welcome Alf to Dublin this Science Week. Being a master of Regeneration himself, Alf perfectly encapsulates this year's theme for Science Week. Regeneration is happening all around us, and Science Week is a chance to explore infinite opportunities for our future, and how the decisions we make today will greatly impact future generations. With hundreds of events taking place nationwide, there is something for everyone - whether you're passionate about protecting our environment, biodiversity, our future health, or using technology like generative AI in our everyday lives." Richard Babington, Creative Director, Turas Alf, said: "Turas Alf / Alf's journey will see the community of Dublin come together to welcome a weary traveller who is feeling the effects of human development and climate change and needs somewhere safe to call home." Science Week 2024 is harnessing the power of regeneration and calling on the public to celebrate our ability to reinvent, rejuvenate and regenerate.

Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 378The Saint of the day is Saint Oliver PlunkettSaint Oliver Plunkett’s Story The name of today's saint is especially familiar to the Irish and the English—and with good reason. The English martyred Oliver Plunkett for defending the faith in his native Ireland during a period of severe persecution. Born in County Meath in 1629, Oliver studied for the priesthood in Rome and was ordained there in 1654. After some years of teaching and service to the poor of Rome he was appointed Archbishop of Armagh in Ireland. Four years later, in 1673, a new wave of anti-Catholic persecution began, forcing Archbishop Plunkett to do his pastoral work in secrecy and disguise and to live in hiding. Meanwhile, many of his priests were sent into exile, schools were closed, Church services had to be held in secret, and convents and seminaries were suppressed. As archbishop, Plunkett was viewed as ultimately responsible for any rebellion or political activity among his parishioners. Archbishop Plunkett was arrested and imprisoned in Dublin Castle in 1679, but his trial was moved to London. After deliberating for 15 minutes, a jury found him guilty of fomenting revolt. He was hanged, drawn, and quartered in July 1681. Pope Paul VI canonized Oliver Plunkett in 1975. Reflection Stories like that of Oliver Plunkett seem to fit history. “Things like that don't happen today” is often our thought. But they do. False accusations, prejudice, anti-Catholic sentiments, racism, sexism, etc. are still an active reality in our day. Perhaps a prayer to Saint Oliver for peace and justice might be appropriate.

The UCD Centre for Digital Policy, with the support of Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Digital and Company Regulation Dara Calleary TD and Microsoft, today announced the release of a newly created AI video series to help build AI policy understanding and capabilities among policymakers, developers and others. Bringing expert academic, legal, industry, political and policy expertise and insights together, the five short videos provide a solid base for anyone interested in deepening their knowledge and understanding of this dynamic technology and social policy space. Contributors include Minister Dara Calleary, AI Ambassador Patricia Scanlon, and Drs. Elizabeth Farries and Susan Leavy from UCD; AI Advisory Council member Barry Scannell; and TrialView's Stephen Dowling. The video series builds on a collaboration between UCD and Microsoft, which saw the introduction of the Microsoft-UCD Digital Policy Programme at UCD in 2020 with the goal of building digital policy capability amongst the public and private sector in Ireland and across the wider EU. The announcement was made at the Digital Ireland Conference organised by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment today in Dublin Castle. The event sought to underline Ireland's position as a digital leader at the heart of European and global digital developments and demonstrate Government's commitment to drive greater clarity, coherence and cooperation in digital in Ireland. Welcoming the release of the AI video series, Minister Dara Calleary TD said: "Ireland can lead in responsible AI and innovative AI and be at the core of AI innovation in Europe. As we look ahead, skilling up in AI will give people the skills and confidence to deal with and manage AI. Skills are also crucial to understanding ethical AI and person-centred AI, which are two key principles of Ireland's national AI strategy." Dr Elizabeth Farries from the UCD Centre for Digital Policy said: "Communication and comprehension need to occur along every point of the AI supply and development chain. We need communication and understanding of ethics from researchers and developers to Governments embracing these technologies. That is why we recommend capacity building for policymakers and developers alike through education, including the programmes offered at UCD Centre for Digital Policy." James O'Connor, Microsoft Ireland Site Lead and Vice President of Microsoft Global Operations Service Center, said: "AI is a transformative technology that has huge potential to empower workers, businesses and communities across Ireland. As the use of AI tools and technologies accelerates, it is important that both the policy opportunities and challenges created by the technology are well understood.
