Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-ochtú lá is fiche de mhí an Mhárta. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin.Tá na hIosraelaigh agus na Meiriceánaigh ag leanúint ar aghaidh leis an gcogadh san Iaráin an tseachtain seo, in ainneoin go bhfuil Caolas Hormuz fós fé smacht na hIaráine agus praghas na hola an-ard go fóill. Dhein Uachtarán Mheiriceá Donald Trump bagairt buamála i gcoinne na nIaránach an tseachtain seo caite mar gheall ar an ndúnadh i gCaolas Hormuz, ach ansan tharraing sé siar an bhagairt agus dúirt sé go raibh na hIaránaigh i mbun comhráite; shéan na hIaránaigh é so go láidir an lá ina dhiaidh san. Tá na Iosraelaigh ag seoladh trúpaí isteach sa Liobáinchomh maith, agus iad ag rá go bhfuil siad ag iarraidh crios maolánach a chruthú idir Iosrael agus forsaí Hezbollah. Ach de réir Amnesty International, tá Iosrael ag dul in aghaidh an dlí idirnáisiúnta leis an ionradh so.Dheimhnigh giuiré cúirte in Los Angeles go bhfuil ar Google agus Meta $3 mhilliún a íoc le bean óg a dúirt go raibh sí gafa lena gcuid meán sóisialta. Mhaígh an bhean gur cúis andúile iad na meáin shóisialta mar gheall ar an ndearadh atá orthu, seachas na hábhair atá orthu. De réir na mná, bhí na comhlachtaí Google agus Meta ag iarraidh daoine óga ach go háirithe a mhealladh leis an ndearadh andúile so. Bhí sí chun cás cúirte a thosnú in aghaidh Snap agus TikTok chomh maith, ach dhein na comhlachtaí san réiteach léi roimh ré. Dúirt Meta nár aontaíodar leis an gcinneadh agus go mbeidís ag féachaint anois ar na roghanna atá acu. Tá seans go mbeidh tionchar mór ag an gcás so ar fud na cruinne. Níl cead ag daoine óga dul ar na meáin shóisialta san Astráil le cúpla mí anois, agus tá go leor tíortha eile ag plé cosc a chur sa dlí chomh maith.Bhí díomá ollmhór ar fud na hÉireann tráthnóna Déardaoin nuair a chaill foireann sacair Phoblacht na hÉireann in aghaidh Phoblacht na Seice tar éis ciceanna pionóis agus nuair a bhí an lámh in uachtar leis na hIodálaigh in aghaidh ThuaisceartÉireann. Bhí Poblacht na hÉireann ag iarraidh dul go dtí an Corn Domhanda den gcéad uair ón mbliain 2002 agus ní fhéadfaidís tús ní b'fhearr a bheith acu nuair a scóráladar dhá chúl laistigh de 23 nóiméad, ceann amháin ó Troy Parrott agus an ceann eile ó chúl tuathail. Ach cúpla nóiméad tar éis sin, fuair na Seicigh cúl ó chic pionóis eile agus ansan ag deireadh an chluiche tharraingíodar cothrom. Ní raibh cúl ar bith san am breise agus ansan bhuaigh na Seicigh 4–3 sna ciceanna pionóis. Ní raibh cúrsaí ní b'fhearr san Iodáil, nuair a chaill an fhoireann óg ó Thuaisceart Éireann 2-0 in aghaidh na hIodáile. Agus leis sin, tá deireadh leis an mbrionglóid ar feadh ceithre bliana eile. Iscéalta spóirt eile an tseachtain seo, chaill an Cumann Lúthchleas Gael duine desna craoltóirí is ansa lena lucht féachana: d'éag Michael Lyster, láithreoir ar an Sunday Game ar feadh 30 bliain, ag an ndeireadh seachtaine.

GAA President Larry McCarthy Reflects on His Tenure in “The Game on Sunday” Podcast+ Best job of my life+ Cork, covid & Croke Park+ The split season+ GAA GO+ The future of hurling+ Decompressing & returning to collegeIn a revealing episode of “The Game on Sunday” podcast hosted by Michael Lyster, GAA President Larry McCarthy shared profound insights into his presidency, addressing key challenges and future prospects of Gaelic games. Joined by Tomas Mulcahy, the trio delved into various topics, including the state of hurling, player welfare, and the integration of non-nationals into Gaelic games.+ A Term Defined by COVID-19 and Broadcasting EvolutionLarry McCarthy's presidency coincided with the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Reflecting on this period, he noted, “It was very difficult the first couple of months,” contrasting his role in reopening games with his predecessor's role in their closure. McCarthy also highlighted the importance of GAA GO, the organization's broadcasting service, in ensuring game access when traditional broadcasters opted out.+ Addressing the Cost of Running County TeamsTomas Mulcahy raised concerns about the escalating costs of running county teams, a topic that has stirred considerable debate in GAA circles. Responding, McCarthy emphasized county autonomy in financial decisions: “The decision is made to spend that money is at that local level… if you can't afford it, you can't afford it.”+ The Future of Hurling and Integration EffortsDiscussing hurling, McCarthy detailed efforts to expand the sport in less dominant regions, citing the South Ulster Junior Developmental Hurling League as a success story. On integrating non-nationals, McCarthy believed that understanding Ireland entails engaging with GAA, though he acknowledged soccer's dominance among newcomers.+ Personal Reflections and Advice to SuccessorAs McCarthy nears the end of his term, he offered simple advice to his successor, Jarlath Burns: “Enjoy it… Embrace it.” McCarthy plans to return to his academic role in the United States but remains open to future GAA involvement.

Part 2 Shaun O Dowd chats about his life in show business with Michael Lyster ... The Showbands were a particularly Irish phenomenon that evolved from the strict-tempo dance-bands of the early 1950s. Until that point Irish music was dominated either by traditional music or the big-band orchestras and balladeers. When Irish teenagers started to hear the new rock n' roll from the US and the UK, reflecting the changing tastes, the Irish Showband was born. They played upbeat rhythm and blues and pop music with one aim – to get people dancing. A second wave of showbands arrived in the late sixties and early seventies playing a rock, blues and soul style these bands were more popular in Dublin and other urban areas, while in the rural areas bands more influenced by country and western were very popular.
Showband Legends - Michael Lyster meets Sean O'Dowd: Pt1 by Senior Times
Michael Lyster joins hurling-legend Eddie Keher at his Kilkenny home to chat about his career and life. Edward Peter "Eddie" Keher is a retired Irish hurler who played as a centre-forward for the Kilkenny senior team. Born in Inistioge, County Kilkenny, Keher first played competitive hurling whilst at school in St. Kieran's College. Born in Inistioge, County Kilkenny, Keher was the second child born to Stephen and Noreen Keher (née Browne). His father, a member of the Garda Síochána, was a native of Donamon and had played Gaelic football for Roscommon, before later lining out with Kilkenny. Eddie learned the art of hurling at the local national school in Inistioge. Regular evening matches were played between Inistioge's "up streets" and "down streets", or between children from the village and the surrounding countryside. In 1952 the eleven-year-old played for the school when they won the under-14 Roinn B championship. He added a second medal to his collection in 1955, when he was also named player of the match. After completing his Leaving Certificate at St. Kieran's College, Keher later went to Ross's College in Dublin where he studied to be a bank official. He subsequently worked in the Allied Irish Bank branches in St. Stephen's Green and Capel Street in Dublin. Eddie later transferred to the bank's branch in Kilkenny before becoming manager of the AIB branch in Callan, County Kilkenny. Eddie was a founder-member of the No Name Club along with Fr. Tom Murphy, Bobby Kerr and Éamonn Doyle. The organisation was established in 1978 and is devoted to providing alternative venues to public houses for young people and which now has about 30 branches across the country. Keher remains an active member of the No Name Club.
