jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/yxhcp7na Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Swimming coach arrested, allegations of sexual offenses investigated. Cóitseálaí snámha gafa, líomhaintí faoi chionta gnéis á bhfiosrú. Gardaí arrested a men's swimming coach while investigating allegations of sexual exploitation of children in sport. Ghabh na Gardaí cóitseálaí snámha fir agus líomhaintí á bhfiosrú acu faoi theacht i dtír gnéasach ar leanaí sa spórt. The man was questioned at a Garda station yesterday and was released the same day. Ceistíodh an fear i stáisiún Gardaí arú inné agus scaoileadh saor é an lá céanna. A file on the case is to be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions. Tá comhad faoin gcás le cur chuig an Stiúrthóir Ionchúiseamh Poiblí. Gardaí from the Department of Defense Services Bureau are conducting the investigation. Gardaí ó Bhiúró na Roinne um Sheirbhísí Cosanta atá i mbun an fhiosrúcháin. These are detectives with specialist training in investigating sexual offenses. Bleachtairí iad seo a bhfuil sainoiliúint orthu i dtaobh cionta gnéasacha a fhiosrú. The Gardaí began the investigation when word came from the Swimming Association of Ireland that some people were concerned that recording devices may be hidden in children's changing rooms in swimming pools. Chuir na Gardaí tús leis an bhfiosrúchán nuair a tháinig scéala ó Chumann Snámha na hÉireann go raibh imní ar roinnt daoine go mb'fhéidir go raibh gléasanna taifeadta i bhfolach i seomraí feistis leanaí in ionaid snámha. Gardaí spoke to a number of children and their parents and evidence was gathered before the man was arrested. Labhair na Gardaí le roinnt leanaí agus a dtuismitheoirí agus bailíodh fianaise sular gabhadh an fear. A statement issued to RTÉ by the Irish Swimming Association stated that the organization's National Officer for the organization had been immediately notified and brought to the attention of the statutory authorities. I ráiteas a thug Cumann Snámha na hÉireann do RTÉ, dúradh gurbh í Oifigeach Náisiúinta Leanaí na heagraíochta a chuir an scéala chuig na húdaráis reachtúla ar an bpointe agus ar tarraingíodh a haird air. It was also stated that the appropriate protocols have been implemented and that the organization is co - operating with the Gardaí. Dúradh freisin go bhfuil na prótacail chuí curtha i bhfeidhm agus go bhfuil an eagraíocht ag comhoibriú leis na Gardaí.

Come On A Once In A Lifetime Vacation With Us To Tuscany! Just Click The Picture Below For Details Or Call (877) 279-2350 SHOW NOTES INTRODUCING MAMIE HERTEL! Today's episode is a special one.  I am honored to interview Mamie Hertel, the 8th Montana FFA student to ever serve as a national officer and the 1st woman from the Treasure State.  If that were not enough, Mamie is a fellow Bobcat, which makes me smile. Mamie grew up on a cattle ranch and grain farm in the center of Montana.  Her upbringing working the land as well as her time in the FFA have given her a heart for service, and she has taken that to the highest level possible. In today's episode Mamie talks about her journey and her upbringing.  She also will talk about her responsibilities as a national officer and what opportunities have been presented to her as a result of becoming a national officer. SUPERVISED AGRICULTURAL EXPERIENCE: Beef Production HIGH SCHOOL: Moore High School; Moore, Montana MASCOT: Bulldogs FFA ADVISOR: Joe Vanek CONTACT INFORMATION FOR MAMIE HERTEL: Click on the picture below to be taken to the Moore High School FFA Department's website: Mamie's FFA Advisor's Email Address: jvanek@moore.k12.mt.us Moore High School's Telephone Number: (406) 374-2231 FFA LINKS: National FFA Organization Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE's) Support FFA  Donate to FFA - One way that FFA students are able to start small businesses is through an FFA grant of $1,000.  In 2014, 141 FFA students received these grants.  With your donations, more students can get this head start - pay it forward. REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America’s youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America’s youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.

I've been to New York City many a number of times through auditions and to see operas primarily. As of late my trips to NYC have almost exclusively been in my role as a National Officer in my union, AGMA. These trips usually take up all my time and leave no time for ‘fun' – something I was resolved to change if possible. With that in mind as I sat down on my early morning train, fired up my phone, and searched for ‘Broadway Shows on Mondays'. I presumed theatres were (historically) dark on my one free night. To my pleasant surprise there were a fair number of ‘off-Broadway' shows with performances that evening. When I scrolled down and saw “The Imbible: A Spirited History of Drinking” – I simply had to attend. [The fact that there were three drinks included in the price of admission didn't hurt either!] Realizing that this isn't a theatre review podcast/blog, I still need to point out that this was a fantastic show. What writer/staring Anthony Caporale has put together both a thoroughly enjoyable night out – and manages to have everyone also leave just a little bit more knowledgeable about the ‘party & dance' drug humans have been enjoying for millennium. Was it a theatrical revelation a la “Hamilton”? Certainly not. Was it the the most entertaining alcoholic beverage presentation I've ever come across in my life – most definitely. Anthony and I sat down after the performance to talk a little bit about the show and taste his Raspberry Creamsicle Old Fashioned (the show's second featured drink). This cocktail served as a reminder that modern twists on classic cocktails don't have to sacrifice the celebration of the spirit. Without reservation, I recommend seeing if there's a performance for this – or any of their other ‘variations' (There are brunch, holiday, and pirate versions seasonally in rep too!) when you are next in NYC.

History & Policy Trade Union Forum event: The Future of Trade Unions Notwithstanding a truce during the EU Referendum campaign, the Government's relationship with trade unions has reached rock bottom with more restrictions aimed against them through the new Trade Union Bill 2016.

With this in mind, History & Policy’s Trade Union Forum will be hosting a half-day conference The Future of Trade Unions, where eminent speakers from both academia and trade unions will take stock of how trade unions’ relationship with government has evolved over time, and hypothesise as to where unions should go from here.
