Mark visits Greenhead Moss Community Nature Park in Wishaw. The 100-hectare site contains many different habitats including ponds, wildflower meadows and woodlands. He takes a tour with countryside ranger Derek. Deveron Wildland is a newly established rewilding estate in Aberdeenshire. Rachel went for a visit to hear about what the plans are for the site as well as to try her hand at nature journalling. When Mark visited Maud Railway Museum earlier in the summer, he was surprised to find that one of their exhibits is a fully restored Peterhead Prison convict carriage. He takes a look inside and hears about the interesting history of the prison wagon. The Scottish National Sheepdog Trials are being held in Perthshire at the moment. These trials are a precursor to the World Sheepdog Trials coming to the Scottish Borders next month. Rachel went along to Glenfarg to chat to some of those involved and watch the impressive dogs at work. And with sheepdogs and shepherds in mind, Stuart McFarlane recently went along to a workshop run by the Scottish Crookmakers Association in Durisdeer Village Hall. The association is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year and Stuart hears about the history and traditions of crook making. Rachel meets another of the finalists in the Environmental category of BBC Scotland's Make a Difference awards. Alex Watson is a litter picker and social media filmmaker based in Dundee, and he tells Rachel about why he got involved in clearing up his local community. And as the Tay Road Bridge celebrates its 60th anniversary this week, Mark hears about the ferries which linked Dundee and Fife before the bridge was opened in 1966. He meets Mairi Shiels from the Newport History Group who tells him about the various boats that ran the different routes across the Tay.And in this week's Scotland Outdoors podcast, Helen Needham digs into the BBC Archive back to the 1960s to explore Snowy Owls on Fetlar, Thatching in Aberdeenshire and a Tree Loving Tramp in the Highlands. We hear an excerpt.

Zaradi vročinskega vala in posledično nizkega vodotoka Save je vlada za zagotavljanje nemotenega delovanja elektroenergetskega sistema in neprekinjene oskrbe z elektriko jedrski elektrarni Krško naložila obratovanje najmanj na minimalni moči, ki je glede na temperaturo in pretok Save še varna in zanesljiva. Druge teme: - Zaradi suše najverjetneje tudi podražitev hrane. - Iran in Oman blizu dogovora o upravljanju Hormuške ožine. - Gianni Infantino po opravičilu za napake ostaja vodja Fife.
Po podatkih Agencije za okolje je danes še zadnji dan rekordno dolgega vročinskega vala. Krajšo ohladitev si lahko obetamo jutri, ko bo od severovzhoda pritekal nekoliko hladnejši zrak. Tako bo v notranjosti Slovenije jutri in v soboto vročina prehodno nekoliko popustila, na Primorskem bodo vztrajale visoke temperature. Od nedelje se bodo dvigovale tudi drugod. Stroka napoveduje, da bodo sušne razmere po državi vztrajale še vsaj deset dni. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Naraščajoči proizvodni stroški zaradi vremena in vojn bi lahko povzročili novo zvišanje cen hrane. - Zelenski svari, da bo Rusija pred zimo še povečala proizvodnjo in uporabo balističnih raket. - Uefa ostaja zavezana bojkotu tekmovanj pod pokroviteljstvom Fife.
Minuli teden je bil med drugim v znamenju trka dveh velikih športnih organizacij. Mednarodna nogometna zveza, oz. njen predsednik Gianni Infantino je želel ustanoviti novo komercialno družbo in približno 20-odstotni delež prodati svetovnim vlagateljem. Vrednost projekta, v katerem je FIFA želela prodati med drugimi komercialne in televizijske pravice, naj bi znašala približno 20 milijard dolarjev, FIFA pa bi z njim zbrala približno 4 milijarde dolarjev svežega kapitala. Po poslanem predlogu načrta, ki so ga po elektronski pošti prejele posamezne nogometne zveze in je bila tem zvezam obljubljena tudi denarna nagrada, je sledil val ogorčenja navijačev po vsem svetu, znova pa je bliskovito in uspešno reagirala evropska nogometna zveza in njen predsednik Aleksander Čeferin. Po soglasni zavrnitvi Infantinovega predloga vseh članic UEFE je predsednik FIFE sporočil, da je opustil namere o izvedbi načrta. O kronologiji dogodkov, vsebini načrta in tudi o tem, kaj spor pomeni za prihodnost svetovnega nogometa z gostoma, predsednikom Nogometne zveze Slovenije Radenkom Mijatovićem in strokovnjakom za športni marketing Tomažem Ambrožičem.

Everyone wants the win. Whether it's cheering for your favorite team during the FIFA World Cup, crossing the finish line of a race, or reaching a personal goal, we're naturally drawn to moments of victory. But what if the greatest victories aren't found at the finish line—but in the journey that leads there?In this message, we explore Jesus' invitation in John 15 to "abide" in Him. Using the imagery of soccer, marathon training, and the Christian life, we're reminded that spiritual growth isn't about chasing success or trying harder—it's about walking daily with Christ and allowing Him to transform us from the inside out.Discover why the process matters, what it means to remain connected to the True Vine, and how God defines real victory—not by trophies collected, but by the fruit produced in a life surrendered to Him.Whether you're in a season of waiting, striving, or searching for your next "win," this message offers encouragement to trust God's process and keep walking with Jesus every step of the way.Visit Us at oacvancouver.ca We believe that Jesus is needed and relevant for people in Vancouver today. The message of God's love and promise of wholeness was destined to be experienced within a faith community that worships, studies scripture and prays together.

Weaving in Scotland In this episode of 'Unique Scotland', John Harbour explores the history and cultural significance of weaving in Scotland, inspired by his previous interview with Clare Campbell of the Highland tartan mill, Prickly Thistle. The podcast traces Scotland's textile heritage from its earliest beginnings through industrialisation and into the modern era. He talks about the survival of hand looms in the Outer Hebrides, especially in the Isle of Harris where the woven material is legally protected. And how did one man, with a loom in his garden shed satisfy NIKE's demand for 20,000 metres of cloth. You will hear an interview with Donald John Mackay who satisfied that order. Although ancient textiles rarely survive in Scotland's climate, archaeological evidence shows that Scots were working with fibres and woven fabrics thousands of years ago. Over centuries, weaving became an essential part of rural life, with families producing cloth in homes, crofts, and villages. This domestic industry laid the foundations for Scotland's later textile evolution. Scottish weaving developed around four key fibres, each shaping different regions and communities. Wool, Scotland's most iconic fibre, was produced from sheep in the Highlands, Islands, Borders, and upland regions, leading to famous products such as tweed and tartan. Flax, used to make linen, was cultivated mainly in eastern Scotland and supported important industries in Fife, Angus, and Perthshire. Cotton, imported through Atlantic trade, fuelled the growth of textile mills in Paisley, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, and New Lanark, transforming clothing and fashion. Jute, imported from Bengal, turned Dundee into one of the world's leading industrial textile centres, producing sacks, canvas, and other durable materials. The Industrial Revolution transformed Scottish weaving by moving production from homes into mechanised mills. While industrialisation brought growth, employment, and international trade, it also disrupted traditional ways of life, reducing the role of hand spinners and weavers and creating new factory-based working conditions. Two of Scotland's most famous textiles are Tartan and Tweed. Tartan became closely associated with Highland culture, clan identity, and ceremonial dress. Tweed developed as a practical woollen cloth suited to Scotland's rugged climate before becoming internationally recognised for its quality and connection to country life. Royal patronage, particularly from Queen Victoria and Prince Albert at Balmoral, helped elevate tweed's prestige. The pinnacle of Scottish weaving tradition is Harris Tweed, produced in the Outer Hebrides. Protected by law, Harris Tweed must be made from pure virgin wool, dyed and spun in the islands, and handwoven by islanders in their homes. Its unique colours, durability, and craftsmanship have made it one of the world's most respected fabrics, demonstrating how traditional skills can thrive in modern markets. John's interview with Donald John Mackay, a Harris Weaver for 70 years, brings to life this cottage industry where Harris Tweed is protected by law. Today, Scotland's textile industry combines large-scale luxury manufacturers with smaller craft businesses and independent weavers. Companies in the Scottish Borders, Elgin, Dundee, and the Outer Hebrides continue to produce world-class fabrics, while businesses such as Prickly Thistle emphasise sustainability, local identity, and traditional craftsmanship. Ultimately, Scotland's weaving story is one of adaptation, resilience, and cultural continuity. From prehistoric fibres and cottage industries to global fashion and luxury textiles, weaving remains deeply connected to Scotland's landscape, communities, history, and identity. You will also hear an interview with Dan, an army veteran whose cancer diagnosis brought him to Scotland to make memories for his family. John, a Navy veteren himself, organised the tour and a special visit to the prestigious Army club in Edinburgh, the Royal Scots Club.

Today I am speaking with Maureen Kilpatrick of Guard Archaeology, a Scottish archaeology firm that has dug sites all over Scotland, but today we are focusing on one site called Guardbridge, in Fife, where the timespan the finds ranged from is astounding: from the Stone Age to the 13th century. Several finds were food-related.The site is amazing – there's an Iron Age fort, there are field demarcations, evidence of food and how it was processed and cooked, as well as lots of evidence of the community moving from a nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle to a settled farming one.We talk about the material objects found on site, such as saddle querns, axes and ploughing tools, food remains like emmer wheat, barley, cockles and the indestructible hazelnut, non-slip pottery and the surprisingly late appearance of oats, amongst many other things.Those listening to the secret podcast get some bonus material where we discuss whether modern agriculture with its mechanised ploughs is a help or a hindrance to archaeologists these days.Read the full report: ARO61: Guardbridge, Fife: A multi-period settlement with a multi-vallate fortFollow Guard Archaeology in X/Twitter @GUARD_ArchaeolSeason 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

Chosen by Dave, A Shot at Glory is a Scottish football drama directed by Michael Corrente and written by Denis O'Neill, bringing together a surprisingly heavyweight cast for a film about lower-league football, club loyalty, and men shouting at each other in tracksuits. Robert Duvall stars as Gordon McLeod and also served as a producer, with Michael Keaton, Ally McCoist, Brian Cox, Cole Hauser, Kirsty Mitchell, and Morag Hood rounding out a cast that feels like someone put Hollywood, Scottish football, and a pub argument into the same blender. The film was produced around 1999/2000 and received a limited US theatrical release in May 2002, followed by a DVD release later that year.Filming took place across Scotland, with football scenes using real grounds including Boghead Park, Palmerston Park, Rugby Park, and Hampden Park, while much of the fictional town of Kilnockie was shot in Crail, Fife. The movie also has a proper Scottish football texture thanks to appearances from real players and football figures, while the soundtrack was composed by Mark Knopfler, giving the whole thing a Celtic-tinged musical polish rather than just the sound of 8,000 people shouting “man on.” Critics were mixed, the box office was modest, but over time it has become a bit of a cult curiosity for football fans, especially anyone who enjoys seeing Ally McCoist sharing screen space with Robert Duvall and Michael Keaton.Trailer Guy SynopsisIn a small Scottish town, where the rain falls sideways and football is less a sport than a legally recognised emotional condition, one struggling club faces the fight of its life.Kilnockie FC has history, pride, and a fanbase clinging to hope like it's the last pie at half-time. But when an American owner threatens to rip the club from its roots, only one thing can save them: victory, belief, and a team held together by grit, grudges, and questionable decision-making.Fun factsThe film's working title was reportedly The Cup, which is accurate, but does sound like a placeholder left on someone's laptop until five minutes before the poster was printed.Ally McCoist plays Jackie McQuillan, a fictional footballer, despite McCoist himself being one of Scottish football's most recognisable real-life strikers.Brian Cox appears as Martin Smith, the Rangers manager, years before a whole new generation would know him as Logan Roy in Succession.Cole Hauser, later famous as Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone, plays Kelsey O'Brian, a backup goalkeeper, despite reports noting he had no real football background.Several real footballers appear in the movie, including Owen Coyle, Andy Smith, Peter Hetherston, and Didier Agathe.Robert Duvall reportedly spent time observing Raith Rovers to help shape his performance as a Scottish football manager.The fictional Kilnockie FC was loosely inspired by the kind of improbable cup exploits associated with smaller Scottish clubs, including Airdrieonians' runs in the 1990s.Mark Knopfler's soundtrack album contains 11 tracks and was released in 2002, with Guy Fletcher also involved as producer.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon here.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

Somerset's to get an extra £50m investment to help the county deal with flooding. The government is giving the money to the county council who will work in partnership with local drainage boards, communities, the Environment Agency and the Somerset Rivers Authority. Farming Minister Angela Eagle says it will enable farmers to better withstand the growing threat of floods.Nearly 300 cattle in Scotland are due to be culled because their identification regulations haven't been followed. The Belted Galloways from Home Farm on the Falkland Estate in Fife cannot enter the food chain because they aren't properly registered. Government inspectors due to oversee the cull say they've faced threats online, and will now not attend. All week we're delving into the detail of growing cereal crops – wheat, barley and oats. Farmers are used to juggling with the challenges of the weather, but this year there have been several other parts to the tricky equation of making cereal crops profitable. With fertilizer prices rising because of the war in the Middle East, and lower or non-existent support payments following Brexit, where does that leave larger cereal growers, competing in global markets?Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Austin Fife, author of The Light and Truth Letter, shares about his journey from a personal faith crisis to rebuilding a deeper, more thoughtful testimony. Austin shares how a pivotal moment with his wife led him on a ten-year search for truth, where he set out to find something greater—only to discover that the answers he was looking for kept pointing him back to the gospel of Jesus Christ.We discuss the complexity of the Book of Mormon, why it continues to challenge critics, and how questions can actually strengthen faith when approached with honesty and patience. Austin also shares powerful insights on navigating doubt, recognizing misinformation, and learning how to think clearly in a world full of competing narratives. At the heart of it all is a simple truth: when we apply the teachings of the Book of Mormon, our lives change for the better.

Bradley Klein joins us today to take a look at the life and times of one of Dornoch's favourite sons.... none other than Donald Ross. Over the course of our conversation we explore young Donald's early days in the Scottish Highlands and in the East Neuk of Fife under the guidance of OTM. His appointment as keeper of the green and professional at Dornoch GC and the chance visit of a well connected Harvard Professor to Dornoch in late 1898 which led to life altering opportunities in Boston and later throughout the USA. We take a look at some early projects, the Ross influence in North Carolina, a Colt collaboration at Old Elm, Seminole & the host of this years PGA Championship Aronimink in Philadelphia. We assess the importance of key associates, explore his design tendancies and how the formation of the Donald Ross Society has facilitated and assisted with restoring many Ross courses to their former glories. Many thanks for tuning in, we hope you enjoy the chat! Episode music - Nectar by Dye O Supplied under license from Epidemic SoundSpecial Guest: Bradley Klein.

Host: Steve Macchia, Guest: Matt Scott, Fyfe Blair "What are the 'pillows' that allow your soul to finally rest in God?" – Steve Macchia In this episode of the Discerning Leader Podcast, Steve Machia is joined by Matt Scott and Fyfe Blair for a rich and reflective conversation on silence and solitude. Together, they explore why these ancient practices feel so difficult in a distracted, fast-paced world—and why they remain essential for the health of our souls. Drawing from Scripture, lived experience, and the wisdom of the Desert Fathers, this episode invites you to move beyond surface-level quiet into a deeper stillness of heart. You'll discover how silence and solitude are not ends in themselves, but pathways into a life rooted in God's presence—a life marked by what Fife calls a "cadence of grace." If your soul feels hurried, noisy, or stretched thin, this conversation offers a gentle but honest invitation: slow down, make space, and learn again how to be with God. We've provided a 3 page Soul Care Audit that will offer you a handful of questions to consider how well you're caring for your soul. You can download the PDF here and spend some time prayerfully reflecting on your current rhythms and practices. Join the conversation about spiritual discernment as a way of life at www.LeadershipTransformations.org and consider participation in our online and in-person program offerings. Additional LTI spiritual formation resources can be found at www.SpiritualFormationStore.com and www.ruleoflife.com and www.healthychurch.net.
