Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Webster

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 12ú lá de mí Bealtaine, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 tháinig nuacht amach nach raibh in ainm a bheith amach chuig an phobail ón rialtas faoi chás á fhiosrú ag na Gardaí. I 2000 bhí an Bank of Ireland ag pleanáil chun 40 áis a dhúnadh ach ní dúirt siad aon rud faoi aon phost. I 1998 stop cluiche I gcoinne Durlas agus Knock de bharr gur bhuail duine réiteoir Michael Webster de bharr gur chuir sé imreoir as an bpáirc. I 2005 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh The Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary ag aistarraingt óna seirbhís do na daoine le míchumas intleachta ag St Anne's I Ros Cré. Bhí an áis ag soláthair cúram cónaithe agus seirbhís I rith an lae I Ros Cré agus na baile timpeall air. Ag an am bhí 125 áit do chúram cónaithe, 4 áit faoiseamh agus 131 áit do sheirbhís I rith an lae. Sin Britney Spears le Oops! I Did It Again – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1968 bhí Brian Jones le The Rolling Stones don uair dheireanach nuair a chan siad ag ceolchoirm New Musical Express Poll Winners sa Bhreatain. Bháigh é nuair a bhí drugaí agus alcól ina chóras nuair a chuaigh sé I gcóir snámh I mí Iúil 1969. Fuair sé bás ag aois 27. I 2000 ghoid daoine na geataí den Strawberry Fields sainchomhartha ó amhrán ó The Beatles. Fuair siad na geataí ag mangaire dramh-mhiotal sa Learpholl cúpla lá tar éis. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Tony Hawk I Meiriceá I 1968 agus rugadh aisteoir Rami Malek I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1981 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 12th of May, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: Leakage of highly confidential Government papers were to lead to a major garda investigation. 2000: Bank of Ireland was planning to close up 40 branches but was not saying what this wouldve meant in terms of jobs. 1998 - A junior hurling league game between Thurles Fennelly's and Knock was abandoned after Referee Michael Webster was struck as he sent off a player.  2005 - The Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary would withdraw from the provision of services to persons with intellectual disability at St Anne's, Roscrea. The headquarters of the service, known as St Anne's Service, provides residential and day services in Roscrea and the neighboring towns. St. Anne's service provides 125 residential places, 4 respite places, and 131 day places.  That was Britney Spears with Oops! I Did It Again – the biggest song on this day in 2000. Onto music news on this day In 1968 Brian Jones made his final live appearance with The Rolling Stones when they appeared at the New Musical Express Poll Winners Concert at the Empire Pool, Wembley, England. Jones drowned while under the influence of drugs and alcohol after taking a midnight swim in his pool, on 3rd July 1969 aged 27. 2000 Thieves stole the gates to Strawberry Fields the Merseyside landmark immortalised by The Beatles song. The 10' high iron gates were later found at local scrap metal dealers in Liverpool. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – Tony Hawk was born in America in 1968 and actor Rami Malek was born in America on this day in 1981 and this is some of the stuff he has done I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

A reminder landlords aren't privy to the personal information of their tenants. Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster says many renters feel the need during the busy rental season to disclose more about themselves to secure a flat. He says it can be tempting for landlords to collect this information when considering applications. Webster says there's also been issues in the past of landlords black-listing tenants and sharing their information when they've had issues. But he told Mike Hosking there are processes to protect landlord's property through bond arrangements in rental agreements and the Tenancy Tribunal.

The Privacy Commissioner wants to review the Privacy Act and introduce a right to be forgotten. He's concerned social media is posing a major risk for children's privacy and parents need help navigating it. A survey by his office raised concerns around young people not having the capacity to make fully informed decisions about their digital footprint and its implications later down the line. Michael Webster told Heather du Plessis-Allan the right to be forgotten should be a fundamental one. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Foodstuffs' North Island trial of facial recognition technology is under the microscope. An inquiry by the Privacy Commissioner will monitor the way stores are running the trial to make sure it's compliant with the Privacy Act. Commissioner Michael Webster says at the end of the six month trial, he'll make an assessment of the results. "We'll also be considering other matters in terms of our concerns that we highlighted sometime back about the nature of this privacy intrusive technology being used in this sort of retail setting."  Webster says they also want to hear from customers about if and how the trial is impacting them.

More privacy concerns for supermarket customers.   It's been revealed that Woolworths will collect personal data like images, audio recordings, and license plate numbers when people sign up to their Everyday Reward cards.  Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster says businesses need to be transparent with what they're collecting from people and what's done with that data once it's been collected.   He says they need to make sure it isn't at risk of cyber-attacks and isn't accessible to those who shouldn't see it.   It follows an earlier controversy with competitor Foodstuffs trialling facial recognition software in North Island stores.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Foodstuff's introduction of facial recognition technology —with the hope of reducing repeat criminal offenders— has the Privacy Commissioner concerned.  The grocery chain is trialling facial scanning in its North Island stores across the next six months.  Commissioner Michael Webster told Kerre Woodham that facial recognition isn't a proven tool to reduce harmful behaviour in supermarkets.  He says it could be even riskier, as the technology could provide people with a false sense of security.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Concerned schools have asked the Privacy Commissioner about their options for installing CCTV in their bathrooms. In a bid to deter negative behaviour such as vaping and bullying in the toilets, schools are turning to cameras to monitor student activity. Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster is urging schools to assess the risks and potential privacy breaches ahead of future installations. "We absolutely understand the student safety argument, but we also want them to think really hard about student privacy arguments and values as well."

The Privacy Commissioner is frustrated by the New Zealand Police's recent serious privacy breach. Police inadvertently disclosed the email addresses of 147 firearms owners by Te Tari Pūreke on Wednesday, 26 July. Privacy Commissioner Michael Webster says that these firearms owners are in a situation where their personal information has been inadvertently released- again. "If you think about the people involved here- firearm owners- you've got to think about them first." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The tone around conservation is often pretty heavy and it's hard not to feel a sense of despair. But maybe there are opportunities in the world of conservation that we are not fully taking into account. The truth is, organisms and ecosystems have built-in defense mechanisms to respond to rapid change that might just be the secret to combatting the negative effects of the Anthropocene. In his new book, The Rescue Effect, author Michael Webster explores the many ways in which nature is responding to disruption. And what he details has big implications for how we think about evolution and how we conserve and protect species.

You might not know it, but Melbourne has little earthquakes, even in the city centre and quite frequently. So says Michael Webster, engineering geologist at consulting, design and construction company, Golder Associates, and guest lecturer for the Master of Engineering at the University of Melbourne. “A lot of people know about the earthquakes down in Gippsland or the Otways, but actually in Melbourne itself, there have been earthquakes. You'd have to be a seismic instrument to actually feel these ones but they are there at all depths – some of them quite deep, some of them shallow,” he says. From the geology beneath Melbourne, Michael has created an intricate, three dimensional picture. “There are two lava flows under Melbourne, so you effectively get these beautiful layers cutting across each other, building up over about three to four million years to the present day,” he says. “So, in collaboration with the Arts Centre Melbourne and Development Victoria, we 3D printed a ground model and put on an exhibition at the Testing Grounds in Southbank. “It ran for a few weeks and it was lovely to see people's interest and connection with the ground. “I've always found that geology is one of the more approachable sciences. If people talk about gravity waves it's absolutely fascinating, but with geology it's there – it is rivers, volcanos, lava.” Episode recorded: September 17, 2019. Interviewer: Dr Andi Horvath. Producer, editor and audio engineer: Chris Hatzis. Co-production: Silvi Vann-Wall and Dr Andi Horvath. Banner image: Golder Associates.

This week, in the latest of our life stories podcast, I’m interviewing Alex Northcott, co-founder of Gorkana and founder of Roxhill Media.Alex has packed quite a bit into his career.He was originally in the British Army as an officer in the Gurkhas.His first job when he left the British Army was in PR at JP Morgan.He then worked for Morgan Stanley before cofounding Gorkana in 2004 alongside Michael Webster.Between them they grew Gorkana over a six-year period before selling to Durrants – who after various acquisitions became what is now known to us all as Cision.The deal was reported to be worth just shy of £28m.Alex then left Cision and five years ago set up Roxhill Media. Which is again a media database company – albeit with a technology twist or two.Roxhill has a turnover of circa £5m and employs about 25 people in the UK.[00:01:27] How a relatively short career in the British Army shaped Alex's career. [00:01:49] Why Alex decided to join the Gurkhas.[00:03:59] When Alex left the army and what made him choose a career in PR. [00:06:05] How Alex set up Gorkana alongside Michaell Webster in 2000 and grew it to a business with a turnover of £8m which they then sold to Durrants (now Cision) for £28m.[00:06:42] What was the genesis of the idea behind Gorkana? [00:08:31] Why Alex's wife made him sleep on the sofa for two weeks when he resigned from Morgan Stnaley to set up Gorkana![00:09:25] Alex talks us through the growth of Gorkana in its early years. [00:12:12] Why did Alex and Michael sell Gorkana when it was still a relatively young business? [00:14:30] How Alex told potential buyers what he wanted for the business before opening himself up to a due diligence process.[00:17:57] What are the important KPIs you need to get right if your want to sell your business?[00:19:03] How the multiple of profit, as a way of valuing the business, was completely irrelevant for Gorkana – because it had three competing offers which every week grew a little bit more and a little bit more. [00:20:03] Why Alex left Durrants (now Cision) only months after the purchase of Gorkana.[00:22:50] Why having made approximately £14m selling Gorkana, Alex decided to do it all again and found Roxhill Media.[00:26:06] Why Alex wants to sell Roxhill Media for more than he sold Gorkana. [00:28:40] How the media relations market is changing.[00:33:48] Why Alex now stops eating at seven o'clock at night and then drinks rose with his children!

Hello Music Freaks, Another podcast here, chasing after your ears to listen into our guest who a major player in the underground music industry The Prince Of Dance Music eLBee BaD. Thats right on the Decisive Podcast series Special. Check out his interview and music mix with your host Roberto Q. Ingram. More about Elbee, 30 years ago the first 12" vinyl 1988 'Just Don't Stop The Dance' The idea to produce 'a dance rhythm' not heard in dance music. From childhood to late in teenage years L.B. was playing the drums. Most time playing with one band consisting mainly of 2 sets of brothers. Platinum Enterprise. (guitar) Claude & Eddy Howard (drums), (Bass) Linwood & Lamont Booker (drums). Having an elder bass playing brother & often playing with another drummer, taught LB to be tight & literally how to ride with or on another groove. Excellent DJ lessons learned. The band members were all 3 to 5 years older & when the oldest member was on way to college, his whole attitude changed, as he was taken into what we now call 'the matrix'. Entering university, preparing for adult life & the dream of playing music & making records for a life time dwindled. The dream got sucked away into societies realities. The other 2 band members followed that same basic path. There was 'The MaD Drummer' losing his band family as each year got closer to being grown up. New York Hip Hop motion was starting up strong. The first modern day raves, block parties, school parties, 2 turntables & a mic parties were replacing bands performing 'everywhere'. Quickly 'dj'ing' became the fascinating 'thing'. Platinum Enterprise was performing at a well paid wedding. When the bands first set of music was finished, the dj started. The needle dropped on the vinyl & the static was loud enough to 'grab all attention'. Then it came in like the sound of a musical bomb dropping in front of your face…The hits of a snare drum & then horns smoothly flowing & the smoothest LOUDEsT clean & clear sound of madness. Kool & the Gang's live version of Summer Madness. The volume, the Bass & then, toward the end, the synthesised keyboard solo. The moment changed eL's life. The volume & bass coming out the Cerwin Vegas, which was far away from the turntables blew his mind into a musical oblivion & he knew…that's the path. Records!! Turntables! Big speakers!! The young teen got a summer job in which he invested in 2 turntables. That December his mother got him the mixer he was after. (Father did buy the 1st few drum sets). If one could today, imagine never seeing dj's mix. Not having any guides or rules at all. It was all new & nothing was set, & no leaders to follow. Lots of info on sound systems, making speakers, & use of crossovers etc., were somehow the most important at the time. Probaby due to the fact that sound systems were often thrown together from multiple 'family home systems' that came with lots of watts. Originate was the key. Tracks (beats) that no one had, was key. New & old music, different genres, nothing mattered & no one cared as long as it was hot & different/unique! The mix & manipulation of records quickly became more important then the actual sound of the system. & that is where DJ Bad shined like no other. His ideas on different ways of mixing were unique, & he quickly became a local fav.

Hello Music Freaks, Another podcast here, chasing after your ears to listen into our guest who a major player in the underground music industry The Prince Of Dance Music eLBee BaD. Thats right on the Decisive Podcast series Special. Check out his interview and music mix with your host Roberto Q. Ingram. More about Elbee, 30 years ago the first 12" vinyl 1988 'Just Don't Stop The Dance' The idea to produce 'a dance rhythm' not heard in dance music. From childhood to late in teenage years L.B. was playing the drums. Most time playing with one band consisting mainly of 2 sets of brothers. Platinum Enterprise. (guitar) Claude & Eddy Howard (drums), (Bass) Linwood & Lamont Booker (drums). Having an elder bass playing brother & often playing with another drummer, taught LB to be tight & literally how to ride with or on another groove. Excellent DJ lessons learned. The band members were all 3 to 5 years older & when the oldest member was on way to college, his whole attitude changed, as he was taken into what we now call 'the matrix'. Entering university, preparing for adult life & the dream of playing music & making records for a life time dwindled. The dream got sucked away into societies realities. The other 2 band members followed that same basic path. There was 'The MaD Drummer' losing his band family as each year got closer to being grown up. New York Hip Hop motion was starting up strong. The first modern day raves, block parties, school parties, 2 turntables & a mic parties were replacing bands performing 'everywhere'. Quickly 'dj'ing' became the fascinating 'thing'. Platinum Enterprise was performing at a well paid wedding. When the bands first set of music was finished, the dj started. The needle dropped on the vinyl & the static was loud enough to 'grab all attention'. Then it came in like the sound of a musical bomb dropping in front of your face…The hits of a snare drum & then horns smoothly flowing & the smoothest LOUDEsT clean & clear sound of madness. Kool & the Gang's live version of Summer Madness. The volume, the Bass & then, toward the end, the synthesised keyboard solo. The moment changed eL's life. The volume & bass coming out the Cerwin Vegas, which was far away from the turntables blew his mind into a musical oblivion & he knew…that's the path. Records!! Turntables! Big speakers!! The young teen got a summer job in which he invested in 2 turntables. That December his mother got him the mixer he was after. (Father did buy the 1st few drum sets). If one could today, imagine never seeing dj's mix. Not having any guides or rules at all. It was all new & nothing was set, & no leaders to follow. Lots of info on sound systems, making speakers, & use of crossovers etc., were somehow the most important at the time. Probaby due to the fact that sound systems were often thrown together from multiple 'family home systems' that came with lots of watts. Originate was the key. Tracks (beats) that no one had, was key. New & old music, different genres, nothing mattered & no one cared as long as it was hot & different/unique! The mix & manipulation of records quickly became more important then the actual sound of the system. & that is where DJ Bad shined like no other. His ideas on different ways of mixing were unique, & he quickly became a local fav. Building up to a radio stations (WGLI engineer to on air & then WBLS) as a mobile music jock, gave access to city wide block parties. The band members (all but the eldest) became crucial members of the 'Super BaD Crew. Growing, they went city wide. Block parties, halls, & onto creating events with our new sound system partners, Mark Blagrove & Michael Webster, both becoming key members of what later came to be Wild Pitch parties.

Our ministry needs to be like a rifle.  We must be focused on what God wants us to do and aim towards it with all we have. The ministry can be so overwhelming that we can maybe lose focus and be tempted to use a shotgun and blast anything that comes in front of us. But God doesn’t want that. He wants a people who will use a rifle and be focused on what he’s doing.

Learn about not one, but TWO amazing things in this episode:  The Houston Youth Symphony, an organization that’s been making music an important part of young peoples’ lives for 70 years, and “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” the symphonic poem written by the French composer Paul Dukas that Walt Disney brought to the masses in the movie Fantasia.  Michael Webster, artistic director and conductor of the Houston Youth Symphony, and HYS bassoonist Derek Marcum play examples and take us through the entire magical piece.

TAG Interview with David BlockFind all TAG Interviews on the TAG website at this link David Block was among the earlier applicants to Walt Disney productions feature animation training program, but he was far from a beginner. He had already broken in with Chuck Jones and Abe Lebitow, had already assisted Art Babbit on the Richard Williams feature Ragged Ann and Andy. Disney, however, turned out to be a career track that lasted decades ... Dave worked on Frank Thomas's and Ollie Johnston's last feature The Fox and the Hound, then went on to the featurette Mickey's Christmas Carol followed by The Black Cauldron and The Great Mouse Detective. He was set to start on the next feature when a chance meeting with Disney Television Animation's Michael Webster sent him on a new career trajectory: supervising the production of television cartoons. Mr. Block spent over a decade producing, directing and otherwise superintending product inside Disney's newer animation division. He then returned to feature work in the 1990s, working on Tarzan, Emperor's New Groove, and Treasure Planet among others. Today, after directing and animation assignments at Nickelodeon and Warner Bros, Dave is again animating at Walt Disney Animation Studios.
