I read that first thing this morning but forgot about it until 4:45 pm when things started going sideways.

Instead of what I thought would be a quick hello, sorry, see you next time, Rosemary delighted with some choice stories about where she came from, her two all-girl bands, The Ladybirds and Birtha, opening for The Stones, great stuff there from the Beatles fan who eventually did get to sing with her hero, Paul, who inspired her to be a lefthanded singing bassist, through sheer Moxie, thanks to Kenny Loggins and Peter Asher, a funny Three Dog Night/Chuck Negron tale, a wonderful Ray Charles invitation, Bonnie Raitt, who she credits with changing her life, but we barely scratched the surface there as we did with Jackson Browne. Rosemary has sung, toured, and recorded with everyone who's anyone... Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, Carole King, Neil Diamond, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, to name a few more - those stories and lots more when Rosemary comes back, under more ideal conditions, feather in hand, with her adorable exuberance to amuse and delight us! In addition to being an iconic backup singer whose memorable riffs have scored my life, Rosemary is a renowned vocal coach and gigs regularly.

The Irish Girl Guides (IGG), in collaboration with Engineers Ireland, is excited to announce the launch of the Engineers Ireland STEPS Ladybird Engineering Badge. This new Badge builds on the success of the Engineering Badges for Brownies (ages 7-10) and Guides (ages 10-14), extending the opportunity to explore STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) activities to girls aged 5-7. With the Ladybird Engineering Badge, Irish Girl Guides and Engineers Ireland aim to inspire young girls to explore STEM and consider engineering careers. The badge introduces fun, hands-on challenges that foster creativity, curiosity, and teamwork while building problem-solving abilities and an engineering mindset. By engaging in this initiative, girls are empowered to see themselves as future innovators in a traditionally male-dominated sector. This partnership aligns seamlessly with IGG's Journey Programme and mission to enable girls and young women to reach their fullest potential as responsible citizens of the world. The initiative also supports several UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 5 Gender Equality, SDG 10 Reduced Inequalities, SDG 1 No Poverty, and SDG 4 Quality Education. It envisions a future where young girls can contribute to sustainable engineering practices that address global challenges. Since the launch of the Engineering Badges in 2018, more than 3,500 Brownies and Guides have earned their Badges, highlighting the success of this initiative. By introducing the Badge to Ladybirds, IGG and Engineers Ireland aim to inspire girls from an early age, empowering them to believe in their abilities and pursue their ambitions, promising a bright future ahead. "At the moment less than a quarter of both engineers and engineering students in Ireland are female. It is clear that more must be done to encourage girls and young women to take up roles in this fascinating industry, particularly if Ireland is to develop the kind of large and diverse engineering profession needed to meet tomorrow's challenges," said Damien Owens, the Director General of Engineers Ireland. "Through our collaboration with the Irish Girl Guides, a community-focused organisation with which we share many values, we are delighted to have the opportunity to promote engineering to young girls, opening up greater opportunities for their future," said Owens. Róisín Mills, the Programme and Training Commissioner, said, "Our mission at IGG is to develop girls into global citizens. Through our partnership with the Engineers Ireland STEPS programme, we have delivered high-quality STEM education to our youth members, broadening both their knowledge and understanding of engineering, as well as their prospects in STEM fields. The Ladybird Engineering Badge is a great way for our youngest members, the Ladybirds, to be exposed to engineering topics in a fun and engaging way." The Engineers Ireland STEPS Programme unlocks the potential of engineering for school children eager to make a meaningful impact in the world. The award is one of four primary and post-primary student engineering initiatives coordinated by the STEPS programme, which is funded by the Department of Education, Arup, the EPA, ESB, Intel, and Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII). Irish Girl Guides has 10,000 members across Ireland. Guiding started in Ireland in 1911 and operates throughout the 26 counties with 1,600 volunteer Leaders providing an informal educational programme of fun and challenging activities that foster confidence and leadership skills in girls and young women, enabling them to develop to their full potential and to become responsible citizens.

Is it a bird or a bug? The answer is neither! Ladybirds or ladybugs are beautiful beetles that are a great help in the garden, where they can eat up to 100 aphids per day. This week's critter is the papapa kopure or orange-spotted ladybird (Coccinella leonina), an endemic species with a glossy black body and bright orange spots. Ladybirds are beloved creatures. Since the Middle Ages, they have been associated with the Virgin Mary, and many people still believe they bring good luck.

A writer concerned with wondrous beetles and beautiful birds, M G Leonard and her award-winning books, for the past decade, have been inspiring the entomologists and ornithologists of tomorrow. Here, Leonard joins Oakes on the banks of the river that inspired Kenneth Grahame's "The Wind in the Willows" for an episode about how Nature and Storytelling are vitally important in inspiring young (and old) minds. In an interview that spans the arts - everything from Shakespeare to "Starship Troopers" - David and Maya discuss why badgers walk like an actor called Michael Bryant, how Ladybirds are actually Transformers, why Entomologists hate "The Hungry Caterpillar", and why beetles deserve a co-credit for authoring Darwin's "The Origin of the Species". Most importantly, hear how Maya's journey into our natural world was far from guaranteed; in reality, it was a wild journey forged through stories, storytelling and one or two lies. Initially just a "Bug Tourist", Maya is now the Vice President for the insect charity BugLife, and manifested the world's first Masters Degree in Entomology. All that, and how to survive if you were ever to find yourself in a battle against a human-sized beetle!

Send us a Text Message.If you've been following our Instagram this week, you might have noticed our battle with aphids. So, I thought it would be helpful to share some more details of biological control in gardening.Biological control involves the use of natural enemies to tackle garden pests. From introducing predators to employing pathogenic nematodes, we explore how these methods offer effective and eco-friendly pest management solutions.Key Takeaways:Benefits of Biological Control: Unlike chemical pesticides, biological controls leave no residues and cause no harm to plants. Once established, natural enemies can multiply and reduce pest populations to acceptable levels.Understanding Predators:Predatory and parasitoid biological controls, though not providing instant results, offer long-term solutions. Timing is crucial, as introducing them before heavy infestation ensures effectiveness.Seasonal Considerations: Glasshouse predators and parasites thrive in warm conditions, with ideal breeding temperatures between late March and September. Reintroduction may be necessary annually.Compatibility with Pesticides: Predators and parasites are sensitive to pesticides, necessitating their avoidance for several weeks before introducing biological controls. Fatty acid-based pesticides can be used with caution closer to introduction.Common Garden Pests and Solutions: Aphids, thrips, vine weevils, slugs, and red spider mites are prevalent nuisances. We explore natural remedies such as ladybirds, lacewings, predatory mites, and nematodes to combat these pests effectively.Practical Tips: Daily monitoring, manual removal of infested leaves, and encouraging natural predators like birds contribute to pest management efforts.To explore further, visit Ladybird Plant Care - www.ladybirdplantcare.co.uk, where Tessa can assist you in selecting the right biological controls for your garden.Embrace sustainable gardening practices with biological control methods, ensuring a thriving garden ecosystem without harmful chemicals.

Ladybugs, Ladybirds, or Lady beetles are familiar to all in art and in reality. These little munchers of aphids and other garden insects are common in many habitats. If the supply of soft-bodied insects on your cabbages dwindles, the adults will fly off to other plants in your garden and elsewhere. Because lady beetles have been collected and sold for as biological control agents, species have been moved from place to place and even between continents. This episode covers such topics and also addresses efforts to document rare native species and even farm them for reintroduction into their former habitats.
