Mark Waters from the Irish Cattle Breeding Federation (ICBF) is on this week's Beef Edge podcast to discuss the National Genotyping Programme which has recently opened for applications. The National Genotyping Programme is a collaborative initiative enabling Ireland to take the first step in achieving a fully genotyped national herd, based on a cost-sharing model between the Department of Agriculture, Food & the Marine, the beef and dairy industry and participating farmers. Genotyping the national herd will provide a huge opportunity for both the dairy and beef industry to accelerate the rates of gain of our national breeding indexes (e.g. EBI, Eurostar & DBI), which will enhance farm sustainability & reduce carbon emissions. Mark outlines a number of benefits including:- Labour-saving - farmers who sign up to the NGP will have exclusive access to Double Tissue Tags. By sampling animals at birth, farmers don't have to wait for button tags or hair-cards for SCEP or Pedigree Societies and then round up and bring in animals for sampling at a later stage. It is also much safer and easier to tag and sample newborn animals than more mature animals- Cost - herds accepted into the National Genotyping Programme will genotype any remaining ungenotyped breeding stock FREE. From 2024 to 2027 (inclusive), farmers will be required to genotype ALL calves born at a reduced cost of approximately €6. (This is an estimate and includes the farmer's contribution of €4 towards genotyping, plus the additional cost associated with a double tissue tag and postage cost.). Herds participating in SCEP will only incur the €6/calf cost of those calves not counted towards their annual 70% SCEP genotyping requirement- Parent verification - parentage errors (which currently sit at an average of 15% nationally) lead to incorrect Eurostar figures and create paperwork to correct once the animal is already registered. Genotyping at birth will confirm parentage & correct any errors before registration- Genomic Eurostar figures - animals sampled at birth will receive genomic evaluations at the earliest possible opportunity, thereby increasing the reliability of their Eurostar figures well before they are selected or sold for breeding and confirming their eligibility for SCEP- Commercial Beef Value (CBV) - genotyped weanlings and store cattle that are being traded through marts will have their CBV displayed on mart screens. Further information is available at: https://www.icbf.com/national-genotyping-programme/ Or contact the ICBF on email: query@icbf.com or phone: 023-8820452 For more episodes from the Beef Edge podcast, visit the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/thebeefedge Produced on behalf of Teagasc by LastCastMedia.com

South Korean President Lee Jae-myung spoke to parliament this Thursday for the first time since taking office, and asked the legislature to approve a 30.5 trillion won (€19.2 billion) supplementary budget aimed at reviving the economy. US President Donald Trump's tariff war has hit South Korea's export-driven economy hard, with GDP growth forecasts for 2025 recently slashed from 1.5 percent to 0.8 percent. Also in this edition: cabling thefts in northern France severely disrupt train services, including the Eurostar between London and Paris.

Eurostar services between the UK and the EU have been restored following a chaotic day of delays and cancellations, with dozens of TGV high-speed trains in northern France also affected. The major disruption was caused by the theft of more than 600 metres of railway cable near the city of Lille. Plus, the World Economic Forum dubbed the "Summer Davos" is underway in China, with trade tensions and conflicts casting a huge shadow over the event.

"I wish I had 640 days to do this trip, not 64." Bali-based Stuart McDonald, founder of Travelfish, is 34 days into an ambitious two-month overland trip across 18 countries from his Bali home to Leeds in the UK. So, why is he doing it? What has he experienced en route? And what have been the finest discoveries of the journey so far? This week, Gary catches up with Stuart in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, to track back across his train and-bus route so far, which has taken him from Bali to Jakarta, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. Stuart describes the dramatic natural landscapes viewed from numerous train windows. He also tells compelling stories about his encounters with Chinese backpacking culture, entire mountains clad with solar panels, the lowering of a giant Lenin statue, an under-construction China-Central Asia railway, and the cultured urban delights of Almaty. We preview the anticipated highlights of the rest of the trip, including Tbilisi, Istanbul, Bucharest and Budapest, before a rapid dash to Paris to catch the Eurostar to London - and a connection to the journey's end: Leeds. A remarkable journey, which Stuart describes as "exhausting" and a "gruelling mission", but - overall - the "trip of a lifetime".
After a week of strategic bickering between the coalition parties, Dick Schoof brokers a deal to split the asylum ministry three ways, making it less fragmented than it was under Marjolein Faber. Amsterdam unveils a plan to get international workers to speak Dutch and get involved in community work, in the hope that the locals will follow suit. Eurostar celebrates its new expanded service in a deserted Amsterdam Central Station after NS workers go on strike again. And in football, Tijjani Reijnders and Quincy Promes are involved in big moves for very different reasons.
Het kabinet mag dan gevallen zijn, de veiligheidssituatie in de wereld blijft onveranderd. Rusland houdt geen rekening met wat er in Den Haag gebeurt, en de oorlog in Oekraïne gaat gewoon door. Trump wil dat Europese landen 5% van hun begroting gaan besteden aan defensie. Krijgt Nederland zijn defensiebegroting op orde zonder missionair bestuur? Daarover D66-Kamerlid Jan Paternotte. En de klappen die Trump aan alle kant uitdeelt hebben een wat onverwacht effect: Canada voelt zich volgens Paternotte meer verbonden met de Europese defensie. En dus ... informeert Canada naar hoe dat allemaal werkt, met zo'n EU-toetreding. Canada ligt nou niet bepaald in Europa, maar, zegt Paternotte: 'Canada zou kandidaat-lidstaat van de EU moeten kunnen zijn'.

Today we're joined by arguably the most iconic female chef in the country in the legendary Sally Clarke, who's been the owner and chef patron at Clarke's in Kensington for over 41 years. Sally ironically failed her O level in cookery and yet has gone on to become one of the most successful chef and restaurant owners in the country. Clarke's is a London institution and the restaurant is the favourite of everyone from Mick Jagger to Bono - David Hockney to Paul Smith and all in between. In only her 2nd ever audio interview, Sally reveals how she fell in love with food through the books of Elizabeth David and her travels across France as a child. However it was when she headed to study at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris in the early 70s when she knew that this was going to be her life. Having worked at 3 of the most famous restaurants in the City she came back to London to work alongside Pru Leith at her cookery school, but within a year found herself moving to live in California to work at some of the greatest new age restaurants. It was here she met and fell in love with Alice Waters and Chez Panisse, and was inspired 5 years later in 1983 to return to London and set up Clarke's following in the same farm to table ethos and daily changing set menu as her culinary hero and friend. However, setting up a restaurant as a female head chef and owner wasn't easy in the early 1980s and we hear about; the disastrous problems she encountered, and rude sexist male customers and suppliers she had to deal with. We also hear about her friendship with Lucian Freud who used to eat breakfast and lunch at the restaurant everyday and how she had the privilege of being the last person ever to sit for him. Also, alongside the restaurant Sally runs an incredibly successful commercial bakery that sells over 90,000 handmade Mince Pies each year and beat all her Parisian competition to provide the pastries for the Eurostar. Sally very kindly also shares her secrets to success including; how to create the ultimate menu, the 'Art Of The Table, how to treat your customers and why she never ever gives her customers the bill. ------------------Please leave us a great rating and a comment and share it with your friends - it really helps us grow as a show.If you're in the industry and are looking for the greatest POS system in the world than look no further as Blinq are tearing up the rulebook—no long-term contracts, no hidden fees, and no per-device charges.

Le groupe Virgin, dirigé par le milliardaire britannique Richard Branson, se prépare à concurrencer Eurostar en lançant un nouveau service ferroviaire transmanche. Cette initiative vise à briser le monopole qu'Eurostar détient depuis trois décennies sur les liaisons ferroviaires à grande vitesse entre le Royaume-Uni et l'Europe continentale.Stratégie de financement et d'investissementPour concrétiser ce projet ambitieux, Virgin cherche à lever 700 millions de livres sterling (environ 900 millions de dollars), répartis en 300 millions de livres en fonds propres et 400 millions en dette. Le groupe prévoit d'être un investisseur majeur dans ce projet, démontrant ainsi son engagement à long terme. Réseau envisagé et calendrier de lancementLe plan de Virgin consiste à établir un service à haute fréquence reliant Londres à Paris et Bruxelles, avec une extension future vers Amsterdam. L'objectif est de lancer ce service d'ici la fin de la décennie, offrant ainsi une alternative directe aux voyageurs entre ces grandes capitales européennes. Contexte concurrentiel et opportunitésLa libéralisation du réseau ferroviaire européen a ouvert la voie à de nouveaux entrants sur le marché des trains à grande vitesse. Cette ouverture stimule la concurrence, ce qui pourrait se traduire par une augmentation des services et une réduction des coûts pour les voyageurs. Défis à releverMalgré les opportunités, Virgin doit surmonter plusieurs obstacles pour concrétiser son projet. L'un des principaux défis est l'accès au dépôt de maintenance de Temple Mills, situé à l'est de Londres, essentiel pour l'entretien des trains à grande vitesse transmanche. Eurostar, actuel utilisateur de ce dépôt, a exprimé des réserves quant à la capacité d'accueillir d'autres opérateurs, ce qui a conduit Virgin à déposer une plainte auprès de l'Office of Rail and Road (ORR), le régulateur ferroviaire britannique. Réaction d'Eurostar et perspectives futuresEurostar a accueilli favorablement le développement des services ferroviaires en Europe, reconnaissant que la concurrence dans le secteur des trains à grande vitesse reflète une demande croissante pour le transport ferroviaire en Europe. Si Virgin parvient à surmonter les défis actuels et à lancer son service, les consommateurs pourraient bénéficier d'une plus grande variété de choix, potentiellement de tarifs plus compétitifs et d'une amélioration générale des services sur les liaisons transmanche. Cette initiative pourrait également inciter Eurostar à innover et à améliorer ses offres pour maintenir sa position sur le marché.En conclusion, le projet de Virgin de concurrencer Eurostar représente une évolution significative dans le paysage du transport ferroviaire européen. Bien que des défis subsistent, l'entrée de nouveaux acteurs comme Virgin pourrait transformer le marché, offrant aux voyageurs plus d'options et stimulant l'innovation dans le secteur.

The stories: London comedy club bans audience members with Botox New York Post Unexploded WWII bomb disrupts Paris train services Reuters Chewing wood may boost brain power London Comedy Club Bans Audience Members with Botox The Top Secret Comedy Club in London has implemented a ban on attendees who have received Botox treatments. This decision comes after comedians expressed difficulties in gauging audience reactions due to "frozen" facial expressions resulting from Botox. The club's owner, Mark Rothman, emphasized that facial expressions are crucial for comedians to connect with their audience and maintain the atmosphere during performances. To enforce this policy, the club has introduced "expression tests" at the entrance to ensure guests can display appropriate reactions during shows. New York Post Unexploded WWII Bomb Disrupts Paris Train Services Train services at Paris's Gare du Nord station experienced significant disruptions following the discovery of an unexploded World War II bomb near the tracks. The bomb was found during overnight maintenance work in the Saint-Denis suburb, leading to the suspension of services, including Eurostar trains between Paris and London. Authorities evacuated approximately 2,000 people as bomb disposal teams worked to safely defuse the device. The incident caused major travel disruptions, with several train departures canceled and services expected to resume only in the afternoon. The Times Chewing Wood May Boost Brain Power A recent study suggests that chewing on hard substances like wood could enhance brain function. The research indicates that such activity may increase levels of a naturally occurring antioxidant in the brain, potentially improving memory and cognitive abilities. Previous studies have also shown that chewing gum can significantly boost brain activity, offering a more palatable alternative to wood. Join us in this episode as we delve into these intriguing topics, exploring the intersection of health, safety, and the unexpected ways our daily habits can influence our well-being.
