Podcasts about Ranelagh

Today's guest is a titan of political journalism - someone whose calm, incisive reporting helped us make sense of the madness during one of the most dramatic chapters in American political history. It's Jon Sopel, the former BBC North America Editor, who spent eight rollercoaster years covering the United States, through Trump, through Covid, through history being made in real time.He's interviewed presidents, grilled press secretaries, and yes - even been shouted at by Donald Trump himself.Now, Jon's back on home turf - though the country he's returned to isn't quite the Britain he left behind. In his brilliant new book Strangeland, Jon turns his razor-sharp eye on post-Brexit Britain, peeling back the layers of a nation that feels unfamiliar even to someone who grew up here. It's part political memoir, part social commentary, and entirely unputdownable.These days, you'll know Jon as one-third of the brilliant trio behind The News Agents, one of the UK's most popular news podcasts, which he co-hosts with Emily Maitlis and Lewis Goodall. It's completely redefined how many people consume the news - and it's an absolute must-listen if you don't already.In this episode, we dive into the shifting political landscapes of both the UK and the US and of course, we set off on Jon's Travel Diaries - from his long stint in Washington D.C. to the sun-drenched Riviera, the energy of Rio, and the beauty of Sydney.Holly's Destination Recap: Puente Romano Hotel, Marbella, Spain Jon's Destination Recap:New York City, USA French Riviera, FranceSt Paul de Vence, France La Colombe D'or, St Paul de Vence, France Paris, FranceMusée Marmottan Monet, Paris, FranceJardin du Ranelagh, Paris, France Andia (formerly Restaurant La Gare), Paris, France Afghanistan Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Tokyo, Japan Sydney, Australia Noosa, Queensland, Australia Blackberry Farm, Smoky Mountains, Tennessee, USAMaine, USANantucket, Massachusetts, USAShelter Island, New York, USACosta RicaThe Galapagos RwandaStrangeland: Is This Britain's New Normal?

En 1541 Enrique VIII de Inglaterra se proclamó rey de Irlanda, un título que no existía pero que ordenó al parlamento crear para que sirviese de justificación para la invasión completa de la isla, algo que los monarcas ingleses habían intentado anteriormente pero sin éxito. Controlar toda la isla les llevó más de 60 años, al término de los cuales convirtieron convirtieron la isla vecina en algo parecido a una colonia. Impusieron la ley inglesa sobre los señores gaélicos y procedieron a la confiscación de sus tierras. No fue algo pacífico. Los irlandeses se resistieron abrazando con ímpetu la fe católica. Durante el reinado de Isabel I rebeliones como la de Desmond y la Guerra de los Nueve Años, fueron aplastadas sin piedad. Al final, en 1607, los condes Hugh O’Neill y Rory O’Donnell sabiéndose rodeados y sin posibilidad de resistir más huyeron a España para pedir ayuda a Felipe III poniendo de este modo fin a la conquista inglesa. Poco después comenzó la colonización del Úlster, un proyecto inglés que perseguía asentar colonos protestantes llegados desde Gran Bretaña en el norte de la isla. Eso implicaba el desplazamiento de la población católica nativa de la que los ingleses no se fiaban. La llegada de los colonos provocó una división religiosa en esta zona de la isla que aún se mantiene. La idea era colonizar toda la isla hasta dejar a la población local en minoría, pero la Inglaterra de aquel entonces era un reino poco poblado y de posibilidades limitadas. Los irlandeses siguieron resistiéndose. Se produjo una gran rebelión de 1641, seguida por la intervención de Oliver Cromwell en 1649, que consolidó el control inglés con una brutalidad que dejó cicatrices muy profundas en la isla. Cromwell, un puritano proveniente de Anglia, confiscó tierras para entregárselas a sus seguidores, y relegó a los irlandeses católicos a un estatus de segunda clase. Las Leyes Penales del siglo XVIII agravaron sus problemas. Prohibían directamente a los católicos poseer tierras, votar o acceder a educación. La élite protestante lo dominaba todo desde Dublín y Belfast, la capital del Ulster fundada por los colonos. El objetivo del Gobierno británico era que los irlandeses nativos se asimilasen a la fuerza hasta que la cultura y la lengua irlandesa terminasen desapareciendo. Pero no sucedió nada de eso. En el siglo XIX surgió el nacionalismo irlandés. La Gran Hambruna de 1845, provocada por una plaga y agravada por la indiferencia británica, acabó con la vida de un millón de irlandeses y forzó la emigración de otro millón, lo que redujo drásticamente la población. Este desastre avivó el resentimiento contra el dominio inglés y dio impulso al nacionalismo. Movimientos como los Jóvenes Irlandeses y, más tarde, la Hermandad Republicana Irlandesa comenzaron a exigir la independencia. La lucha por la emancipación y el autogobierno ganaron fuerza con Daniel O’Connell y Charles Stewart Parnell, pero se toparon con la feroz oposición de los unionistas del Úlster, quienes temían perder su identidad protestante en un Irlanda mayoritariamente católica. La primera guerra mundial sirvió de catalizador para todas estas tensiones que se habían acumulado en el siglo anterior. El Alzamiento de Pascua de 1916, aunque inicialmente fallido, incrementó el apoyo popular al Sinn Féin y al IRA. La Guerra de Independencia de 1919 forzó al Reino Unido a negociar. El resultado fue el Tratado Anglo-Irlandés de 1921. Irlanda recuperaba la independencia, pero no toda la isla. De los 32 condados que tenía seis de ellos permanecieron bajo control británico conformando Irlanda del Norte. La partición desató una breve guerra civil en el sur entre los partidarios y los detractores del tratado liderados por figuras como Éamon de Valera y Michael Collins. Los partidarios se impusieron dando lugar a la actual República de Irlanda. Pero la cuestión irlandesa no quedaba del todo resuelta con eso.

Sexually Transmitted Infections, or STIs, were on the rise in 2024 – showing worrying signs. It follows a huge uptick the year before, with Ireland not set to reach its target of eliminating sexual diseases by 2030.Joining Adrian Kennedy to discuss the increase is Dr. Derek Freedman – a Specialist Consultant in Sexual Health and Sexually Transmitted Diseases based in Ranelagh.

« Une leçon de piano avec Chopin » est le nouveau spectacle de Pascal Amoyel. Il se base sur une méthode méconnue du compositeur. Chaque fiche correspond à un aspect de la musique. Évidemment le musicien interprète des morceaux poignants de Chopin. Mais il revient aussi sur sa vie et la genèse de ses œuvres. On a l'impression d'entrer dans son intimité. On assiste à un vrai dialogue avec Chopin. « Une leçon de piano avec Chopin », c'est jusqu'au 12 janvier 2025 au Théâtre du Ranelagh, 5 rue des Vignes dans le 16ème, métro La Muette ou Passy. Je vous fais part aussi d'un coup de coeur pour un album que l'on doit à Mayra Andrade, qui s'intitule « Reencanto ». Accompagnée par un guitariste, elle revisite son répertoire de façon dépouillée. Elle est très influencée par la musique cap-verdienne. Copyright Philippe Escalier

Dublin Bay South is one of the most hotly contested constituencies in the country. Four seats are up for grabs in a territory stretching from Terenure to Sandymount; encompassing young populations in Ranelagh and Rathmines and more working class areas around. Reporter Barry Lenihan is on the ground in the Dublin Bay South.

These are some very challenging times for retail and hospitality here, with news this week that men's fashion retailer Alias Tom was placed into liquidation while high profile Dublin restaurant Shanahan's on St Stephen's Green closed, and Dillinger's in Ranelagh will close in November after 16 years in operation.On Tuesday, hundreds of hospitality, tourism, retail, and other small business owners protested in Dublin outside Leinster House about the increasing costs of doing business here, with many of those costs being Government imposed. The Restaurant Association of Ireland was one of the groups that organised that protest, and its CEO Adrian Cummins joins Inside Business host Ciarán Hancock to discuss the key issues raised at the protest, while Eoin Burke Kennedy of The Irish Times explains the backdrop to Alias Tom's winding up this week.At the end of last month, the Government announced that the much talked about auto enrolment private sector pension scheme would finally come into effect in September 2025.A report in the Irish Independent suggested there could be a tax sting in the tail for those workers, following the release of the Finance Bill last week. Dominic Coyle, The Irish Times resident pensions expert, outlines what's being proposed in the Finance Bill for auto enrolment.Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound. Hosted on Acast.

So we're in Morton's of Ranelagh, doing the big shop, when we run into Rebecca Leahy, the old dear of Honor's classmate Diva Leahy. Actually, she and Sorcha both reach for the last punnet of kumquats in the shop and I watch Sorcha's body shape change to fight mode until Rebecca goes, “Sorcha! How are you? Oh my God, look at you! You must weigh nothing!” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“La fleur au fusil” é a nova criação de Lionel Cecílio. Uma peça inspirada no 25 de Abril de 1974, em Portugal. Uma história que entrelaça as memórias da avó Celeste, com factos históricos que levaram à Revolução dos Cravos. A peça pode ser vista até ao próximo domingo, 21 de Julho, no Théâtre des Brunes, em Avignon, no âmbito do festival OFF de Avignon.  “La fleur au fusil” é a nova criação de Lionel Cecílio. Uma peça inspirada no 25 de Abril de 1974, em Portugal. Sozinho em palco Lionel Cecílio interpreta 18 personagens numa história que entrelaça as memórias da avó Celeste, com factos históricos que levaram à Revolução dos Cravos. A peça pode ser vista até ao próximo domingo, 21 de Julho, no Théâtre des Brunes, em Avignon, no âmbito do festival OFF de Avignon. RFI: Que peça é esta?Lionel Cecílio: É uma peça sobre a Revolução dos Cravos, com um único actor em palco que sou eu, com 18 personagens para contar não só o que foi a Revolução dos Cravos de uma forma histórica, mas também o que foram os percursos humanos daqueles que viveram essa revolução, para também contar, uma maneira um pouco universal, como homens e mulheres são capazes de se livrarem de uma ditadura. Como é que surgiu esta ideia de contar esta história? Eu não tinha bem ideia do que aconteceu a 25 de Abril de 1974 em Portugal. Sabia que havia uma data, sabia que havia uma ponte [Ponte 25 de Abril em Lisboa], mas não sabia bem o que tinha acontecido. Um dia, durante o confinamento, aqui em Paris, vi passar nas redes sociais uma coisa a propósito do 25 de Abril. Comecei a ler e a ver, a interessar-me um bocadinho sobre o que aconteceu e compreendi que tinha passado ao pé de um facto histórico muito importante.Telefonei à minha avó que estava em Portugal nesse momento e disse-lhe: Porque é que tu nunca me contaste? E ela me respondeu: Porque é que tu nunca me perguntaste? E assim compreendi que não tinha considerado a minha avó e a vida que ela teve antes de ser avó.Subi num avião desde que foi possível e fui passar quatro dias com ela a Lisboa. Ela contou-me tudo e foi assim que eu descobri tudo quanto era para descobrir através dela, do que aconteceu durante os anos 50, 60, 70 até ao 25 de Abril 1974. Portanto, esta avó Celeste existe mesmo?O que existe são duas coisas diferentes que eu pus junto no espectáculo. Celeste Martins é a mulher, ainda viva, que deu os cravos aos militares. A minha avó chama-se Celeste. Portanto, no palco, eu imaginei um neto que podia ser eu, uma avó que podia ser a minha, numa história que era aquela que aconteceu mesmo em Portugal. E foi através deste nome Celeste, que eu digo muitas vezes, que se faz esse ponto de encontro entre realidade e ficção. Foi aí que eu fiz o nó disso tudo para contar a história como eu queria contar e que fosse narrativamente mais interessante no palco. Queria contar esta história com estes personagens e com esta Celeste, que efectivamente foi a senhora que teve a ideia dos cravos, mas aproveitou o facto também da sua avó se chamar Celeste para juntar aqui estas duas histórias. Sim, porque era importante para mim. Queria contar três coisas: historicamente, o que aconteceu em Portugal de uma forma humana; depois, como é importante ir ao contacto da vida que tiveram os nossos avós e dessa passagem de geração em geração. Portanto, criei uma avó e um neto. Em terceiro queria dar um ângulo mais universal. A história é o mais fiel possível à história de Portugal e o mais humano possível nessa passagem entre gerações de uma avó e de um neto. Na sua peça também se fala das condições da comunidade portuguesa que residia em França. Nessa altura, viviam nos bairros de lata, nos bidonville como são conhecidos. Só de há uns anos a esta parte é que se começa a falar dessa história, só agora é que o que se passou começa a ter voz, porquê?Em todas as histórias um bocadinho difíceis, negras e complicadas, há uma sensação de pudor daqueles que o viveram, que não querem compartilhar para não estar nesse lugar de contar o que foi complicado. Eu acho que todas as gerações passadas têm a vontade de proteger as novas gerações e não contar o que foi difícil, quer seja a guerra da Algéria ou sobre outras guerras. Por cima disso, eu acho que o nosso povo português, do qual eu sou e os meus avós, também são, não somos muito faladores dessas coisas. Na nossa comunidade há muitas coisas que não se dizem, que não se partilham. É isso também que eu queria fazer com esse espectáculo, uma passagem de conhecimento, de palavra aberta, de dizer que as coisas existem, que a gente fala delas, que também são bonitas, lindas, apesar de serem duras, elas têm uma parte histórica muito forte para nos ajudarem para o futuro, compreendendo o que foi o nosso passado, as nossas raízes. Vamos estar mais armados para o futuro. Agora, há pouco tempo, houve aqui em França, mas também em Portugal, um grande medo da extrema-direita, dessas ideias e desses partidos. Eu acho que se a gente tiver mais ao corrente de como as liberdades são comidas, pouco a pouco estaríamos mais armados para não pensar em coisas como: nunca tentamos a extrema-direita, vamos tentar? Não, já tentamos e foi muito difícil sair daí. Portanto, eu artista, mas todos temos que ter essa responsabilidade de dizer as coisas para dar armas às gerações futuras. Ao longo da sua peça há um género de homenagem à própria mulher.Eu acho que era muito importante essa passagem, que é um bocadinho complicada e um bocadinho longa. Esse controlo da PIDE com a Celeste e, também, depois ela a contar ao Zé e depois ao Chico que também que é o irmão dela, como foi torturada. Para mim era muito importante a homenagem às mulheres. Acabo o espectáculo dizendo isso: Portugal não vai ser sempre salvo por causa dos homens portugueses serem poetas, mas porque as mulheres são inspiradoras. Nessa história, e em todas as histórias, as mulheres são as primeiras a serem oprimidas e são elas que fazem tudo. Eu acho que a gente deve muito às mulheres. Se elas são as primeiras oprimidas, é porque os homens - que são os opressores - têm interesse em oprimir as mulheres, porque elas é que têm a força.Esta peça já tinha sido apresentada em Paris… Uma vez. A criação foi para Avignon. A gente faz sempre uma estreia em Paris para tentar ver como as coisas são recebidas. E eu disse ao meu encenador - que não é português e não tinha essa consideração tão forte como eu tinha, filho de imigrantes portugueses, da força que era um dia como o 25 de Abril - se temos que tentar uma data em Paris, tem que ser dia 25 de Abril. E assim foi.Fizemos a primeira tentativa no dia 25 de Abril, no Théâtre du Ranelagh, mas foi a única. E o que a actuamos lá não tem muito a ver com o que a fazemos aqui, porque entre o dia 25 de Abril [de 2024] e agora várias coisas foram feitas de outra maneira, até cenas que não existiam e que agora existem. A sala tem estado sempre cheia?No primeiro dia, estreamos a peça e tínhamos meia sala e a partir daí foi sempre sala cheia e espero que assim continue até o fim. Desde a segunda representação até agora, todos os dias, o público tem-se levantado com muita força para aplaudir o espectáculo. E hoje o meu medo maior é que o público não se levante. Tenho agora muita pressão para que se levante até o fim. Eu não imaginava uma sessão do espectáculo assim tão forte. Em nenhum momento teve medo de pelo facto de em algumas partes falar em português, alguma coisa pudesse escapar a quem não percebe as duas línguas? Foi uma coisa que trabalhámos muito. O meu encenador não fala português e eu, no princípio, quando escrevi o espectáculo, tinha imaginado algo com uma tradução em videoprojecção para as pessoas poderem ler. E ele disse-me que não, disse-me: tens que imaginar uma escrita mais fina onde o português e o francês vão se casar de tal forma que aquele que não fala francês vai compreender tudo graças ao português, tens que casar as duas línguas e as duas culturas da mesma maneira que tu dizes no espectáculo que elas estão juntas em ti, elas têm que estar juntas no espectáculo. Desde a primeira apresentação, os não portugueses, os franceses que não falam português, todos disseram que era incrível porque eles saíam do espectáculo com a impressão de falarem português e que não lhes afectava no entendimento da peça. Por isso eu acho que ganhamos nesse sentido.

AWS GetIT is a fully funded education programme and competition designed to inspire 12-14-year-old students, especially girls, to consider a future in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). The programme gives them access to curriculum designed to help build foundational skills, learn about cloud tech, and design app ideas to solve real-life problems. Schools are paired with a dedicated AWS GetIT Ambassador who supports the school and educator and acts as a role model for students. After completing the programme curriculum, schools can submit a student app idea for consideration in a countrywide AWS GetIT competition. This year, three schools were brought to the AWS GetIT final, which took place at the AWS offices in Dublin. The teams in the final presented their ideas to a judging panel of people working in the tech industry. The finalists were invited to present their App ideas on the day and answer questions surrounding their design thinking cycle, teamwork, the issue they are tackling and the technology they will use. The AWS GetIT finalists were: 1. 1. Fit Quick by Coláiste Abhainn Rí, Callan, Co. Kilkenny - App aimed at tackling young people dropping out of sporting activity, particularly during the transition from primary to secondary school. The app is aimed at 11-19 year olds with the overall goal of encouraging maintaining interest in sport and physical activity during their teenage years. 2. Job Box Celbridge Community School, Co Kildare - App aimed at helping young people aged 18-25 find accommodation and employment. The team acknowledged how homeless is a huge social issue and the app aims to support young people with resource information on housing, as well as assist them on their job search journeys. 3. Puzzled by Sandford Park School, Ranelagh, Dublin - App focused on providing support resources for secondary school students with learning difficulties. The app contains resources aimed at helping students overcome challenges they are having with schoolwork and includes a fun mascot called 'Pablo' to guide app users on their journey. Mark Dunleavy, General Manager, AWS Ireland and Northern Ireland, said: "On behalf of AWS, I'd like to congratulate the contestants in this year's AWS GetIT competition; each year, we are completely blown away by the high level of innovation and creativity shown by secondary students across Ireland. AWS GetIT empowers and inspires 12-14-year-olds to consider a future in STEM and learn other key skills such as problem-solving and teamwork. It is also an opportunity for them to get face-to-face time with AWS ambassadors and gain real insight into what it is like to work in tech. At AWS, we hope that taking part in this competition is their first step in a journey towards an exciting and rewarding career in STEM." Jane Dawson Howe, Country Manager Ireland, Slalom and AWS GetIT judge, said: "I was thrilled to be involved with AWS GetIT 2024. I was so impressed with the quality of the finalists' projects and their determination to solve real-world problems. I was also amazed at their confidence and how they communicated the impact of their ideas. Congratulations to all the students (and their teachers) on developing such compelling solutions. The future of technology for societal good is in the right hands!" Frances Abeton, CEO and Co-Founder of Whyze Health and AWS GetIT judge, said: "I was truly captivated by the calibre of projects presented at the AWS GetIT competition. The students' work was not just impressive, but it also showcased their exceptional talent and creativity. This experience has reinforced my belief in the significant impact of integrating technology education in schools. It was a true privilege to witness such potential and support an initiative that empowers young people to excel in the tech industry."

How difficult was life in the Middle Ages? This is something archaeologists and historians have debated for decades. In recent years, new techniques, including genetic analysis, have given us new insights into the lives of our distant ancestors in the Medieval Era. Their findings are unsettling. Life in the Middle Ages was far more difficult than we imagine.My guest in this episode is Prof. Eileen Murphy from Queen's University Belfast. Eileen has recently published groundbreaking research on daily life in early medieval Ireland, based on her analysis of human remains excavated in Co. Roscommon. In this podcast, she answers all your questions on what life was like.Eileen shares her discoveries on how people survived in a hard and difficult world. It's not for the faint of heart.This episode is not suitable for children.Our interview is based on the book "The Forgotten Cemetery: Excavations at Ranelagh, Co.

Stuart Banks is here to tell us about the Ranelagh Rockets.

« Dans la peau de Cyrano » est une pièce de Nicolas Devort qui nous parle de la différence. Seul sur scène, il a beaucoup de présence. Il parvient à incarner avec vraisemblance de nombreux personnages. Le protagoniste principal, c'est Colin, qui souffre de bégaiement. Dans son nouveau collège, le professeur de français, Monsieur Devarsot annonce qu'il y aura cette année un atelier théâtre. Colin a la cran d'y participer. Il lui est proposé d'interpréter le rôle de Cyrano. Il est très attiré par Adélaïde qui joue Roxane mais celle-ci à déjà un petit ami. « Dans la peau de Cyrano », c'est actuellement au Théâtre du Ranelagh, dans le 16ème. Copyright Dominique Chauvin

Nicolas Vaude était au téléphone des Grosses Têtes ce 10 novembre. Il sera prochainement sur les planches au théâtre Ranelagh dans la pièce "Le neveu de Rameau". Retrouvez tous les jours le meilleur des Grosses Têtes en podcast sur RTL.fr et l'application RTL.

«Le Neveu de Rameau » est un classique de Diderot mais est tout sauf ennuyeux. Cette adaptation se révèle très moderne et pétillante. Elle est portée par deux magnifiques acteurs, Nicolas Vaude et Gabriel Le Doze. Olivier Baumont les accompagne au clavecin. Nicolas Vaude se montre virevoltant dans le rôle du neveu. Gabriel Le Doze apporte une certaine robustesse au philosophe. C'est à une joute verbale délicieuse à laquelle le spectateur assiste. Il y a une dimension philosophique dans le propos. La mise en scène de Jean-Pierre Rumeau est très dynamique. «Le Neveu de Rameau », c'est actuellement au Théâtre du Ranelagh dans le 16ème. Copyright Chantal Palazon

El béisbol es muy popular en países como Estados Unidos, México, Cuba, Venezuela o República Dominicana. Sin embargo, el COI decidió no incluir este deporte para los Juegos Olímpicos de París por, entre otros, falta de infraestructuras en Francia. En el país anfitrión de la cita olímpica, sólo 13.000 personas practican el baseball, y aunque en el último año hubo un aumento del 7% de inscritos, sigue siendo un deporte bastante confidencial.  "Es la segunda decepción después de los JJOO de Londres en 2012", se lamenta Francisco Arriagada, jugador del club Ranelagh de París. A la falta de infraestructuras que puedan acoger a un gran número de espectadores en las gradas se añade, según Arriagada, el hecho de que Francia no es muy fuerte en este deporte. "Las probabilidades de medallas eran nulas, Francia prefería escoger otros deportes con más opciones", matiza. En las Olimpiadas de París efectivamente hay nuevas disciplinas como el breakdance donde los franceses tienen posibilidades de estar en el medallero. Arriagada nació en Santiago de Chile hace 57 años, después de mudarse de pequeño a México, donde descubrió el béisbol, se instaló en 1990 en Francia donde, para su sorpresa, descubrió que también había este deporte. En 30 años, Arriagada asegura que no ha habido muchos cambios. "La única diferencia es que tal vez había menos campos de béisbol y que se bateaba con bates de aluminio y no de madera", afirma. Ha pasado por varios equipos como el PUC (Paris Université Club) y actualmente juega en el Ranelagh de París, un equipo de veteranos que ha rescatado un club histórico de principios del siglo XX. "Este equipo se formó por iniciativa de Bertrand Maire, nuestro presidente, que decidió revivir un equipo que fue creado en 1913 y que jugó hasta comienzos de los 1930, y que participó en un partido de exhibición contra un equipo americano en las Olimpiadas de 1924 en Francia", explica a RFI. Y es justamente lo que quieren repetir para celebrar el centenario de las Olimpiadas, jugar un partido de exhibición en 2024 en el marco de los JJOO. "Esto podría ser una excelente manera de promover a nivel nacional, sobre todo entre los jóvenes, el béisbol", dice entusiasmado, aunque por el momento todavía no han obtenido una respuesta positiva a esta iniciativa. A pesar de que el béisbol sigue siendo muy confidencial en Francia, ha habido una progresión de inscritos en el último año con un 7% más. Pero queda mucho por hacer, según Arriagada. La solución pasa por la comunicación para poder promocionar este deporte."Hay que hacer que sea popular entre los jóvenes. Para eso hay un proyecto de la Liga de béisbol de Estados Unidos, Major League, para que dos equipos estadounidenses jueguen en el 2025 un partido de temporada en el Stade de France. Sería una muy buena manera de impulsar y darle notoriedad al béisbol en Francia", concluye Francisco Arriagada. #EscalaenParís también está en redes sociales.Coordinación editorial: Florencia Valdés  Realización técnica: Souheil Khedir, Jérémy Bouchet Fotos y videos: AP, AFP, Reuters, Ranelagh baseball, ManuelG Frenchcaster, CCTV, MLB

The Friday Newsletter |  Daily Gardener Community   Historical Events 1669 Birth of Sébastien Vaillant ("Vy-yaw"), French botanist. Appointed to the King's garden in Paris, Sebastien loved organizing and cataloging plants. Biographical accounts say Sebastian showed a passion for plants from the age of five. His masterpiece, forty years in the making, Botanicon Parisienne, was a book about the flora of Paris. It wasn't published until five years after his death. Sebastian's work on plant sexuality inspired generations of botanists and set the stage for Linneaus to develop his sexual system of plant classification. Linnaeus used the male stamens to determine the class and the female pistils to determine the order. And like Sebastion, Linnaeus often compared plant sexuality to that of humans. Linnaeus wrote, Love even seizes... plants... both [males and females], even the hermaphrodites, hold their nuptials, which is what I now intend to discuss. Sebastian caused a sensation at the Royal Garden in Paris on June 10, 1717. On that day, he presented a lecture titled, Lecture on the Structure of the Flowers: Their Differences and the Use of Their Parts. He began by reinforcing the idea that the flower is the most essential part of a plant - essential to reproduction - and then he began to lead his scientific colleagues into a deep dive on plant sexuality - at six in the morning, no less. Before Sebastian's lecture, the topic of sex in the plant world had only been touched on lightly, allowing flowers and blossoms to maintain their reputation as pure, sweet, and innocent. Today, we can imagine the reaction of his 600-person audience as he began using fairly explicit language and the lens of human sexuality to describe the sex lives of plants. A 2002 translation of Sebastian's speech was presented in the Huntia - a Journal of Botanical History. Sebastian started his lecture with these words, Perhaps the language I am going to use for this purpose will seem a little novel for botany, but since it will be filled with terminology that is perfectly proper for the use of the parts ... I intend to expose, I believe it will be more comprehensible than the old fashioned terminology, which — being crammed with incorrect and ambiguous terms [is] better suited for confusing the subject than for shedding light on it. Sebastian's discussion of the plant embryos was rather poetic: Who can imagine that a prism with four faces becomes a Pansy;  a narrow roll, the Borage;  a kidney, the Daffodil;  that a cross can metamorphose into a maple;  two crystal balls intimately glued to each other, [Comfrey], etc.?  These are nevertheless the shapes favored in these diverse plants by their lowly little embryos.   1742 On this day, Horace Walpole wrote to Horace Mann, in part describing his visit to Ranelagh ("Ron-ah-lay") Gardens in Chelsea. Ranelagh had opened just two days prior, and it was one of several pleasure gardens opened around this time. Horace wrote,  Today calls itself May the 26th, as you perceive by the date; but I am writing to you by the fireside, instead of going to Vauxhall. If we have one warm day in seven, "we bless our stars, and think it luxury."  And yet we have as much waterworks and fresco diversions, as if we lay ten degrees nearer warmth.  Two nights ago Ranelagh-gardens were opened at Chelsea; the Prince, Princess, Duke, much nobility, and much mob besides, were there. There is a vast amphitheatre, finely gilt, painted, and illuminated, into which everybody that loves eating, drinking, staring, or crowding, is admitted for twelvepence.  The building and... gardens cost sixteen thousand pounds.  Twice a-week there are to be ridottos... [entertainment] for which you are to have a supper and music. I was there last night, but did not find the joy of it. Vauxhall is a little better; the garden is pleasanter, and [you arrive] by water...   Horace must have come to prefer Ranelagh. He later wrote, It has totally beat Vauxhall... You can't set your foot without treading on a Prince, or Duke of Cumberland.   Finally, it was Horace Walpole who wrote, When people will not weed their own minds, they are apt to be overrun by nettles.   1811 On this day, Thomas Jefferson wrote to his granddaughter, Anne, who was visiting her in-laws: Nothing new has happened in our neighborhood since you left us.  The houses and trees stand where they did.  The flowers come forth like the belles of the day, have their short reign of beauty and splendor, and retire like them to the more interesting office of reproducing their like.  The hyacinths and tulips are off the stage, the irises are giving place to the belladonnas, as this will to the tuberoses etc.    Thomas was not able to garden much during the summer of 1811. His arthritis had flared, and he found himself almost entirely bedridden.    1921 On this day, Kate Lancaster Brewster resigned as editor of the bulletin she funded and started for The Garden Club of America for its first six years. At the time of her resignation, Kate reported, Cost of Publishing the Bulletin (including postage) between July, 1920 and May, 1921 totaled $4038. Number of paid subscribers... 55 Number of lapsed subscribers... 21 2 Paid subscribers have become Members-at-Large. I Paid subscriber has become a member of the GARDEN CLUB OF AMERICA.   As for Kate Lancaster Brewster, she had a beautiful Italianate garden in Lake Forest, Illinois. She was friends with most of the prominent gardeners and garden writers of her time, including Mrs. Francis King (Louisa Yeomans King). When Louisa published The Little Garden Series, Kate wrote one of the books called The Little Garden for Little Money. Kate and her husband Walter were ardent art collectors and loved to travel. The couple helped establish the Chicago Art Institute. During WWI, Kate left her service work in Chicago, California, and New York to go to France. There, she assisted her friend, the indefatigable Mabel Boardman of the American Red Cross, with hospital work.   Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation The Thoughtful Gardener by Jinny Blom This book came out in 2017, and the subtitle is An Intelligent Approach to Garden Design. Well, Piet Oudolf has high praise for Jinny Blom. He writes, The most romantic, creative person in garden design I know.   So that's high praise right there from one of our top modern garden designers. Like Piet Oudolf, Jinny Blom is a force all her own. She's designed well over 200 gardens, and they represent a diverse range of garden styles - proving that Jinny Blom really is The Thoughtful Gardener. Now, one of Jinny's superpowers is to take a look at the current landscape, look at the setting, look at the surrounding ecosystems and communities, and then determine what vision best fits that landscape. And, of course, she has to throw in client desires and other challenges that might come up in the creation of that garden. And whether it's topography challenges or resource constraints, Jinny has indeed seen it all. Through her myriad experiences, she's come up with six different steps to help you become a thoughtful gardener too. Now I think one of the things that Jinny does almost unconsciously at this stage in her career is that she really thinks through what she's trying to accomplish in any given landscape. And I don't care what you're trying to accomplish; you will definitely do a better job of reaching your anticipated goals if you take the time to do your homework and truly think things through. The six different sections in Jinny's book are understanding, structuring, harmonizing, rooting, and liberating. Jinny also has another superpower that I think really helps her when it comes to her garden design skills, and that is that she can see gardens as they will look when they are mature, and that's a particular skill for garden designers. I remember the first time I interviewed the Renegade Gardener, and he said the same thing to me. He said that he was a successful garden designer because he could imagine what a plant would look like at maturity or in any particular setting in the future. And so he knew what to plant where - and how it would look when it was all grown up. And so his goal as a designer was not to make sure that the garden would look good immediately - although that was a temporary concern and a nice to have - he was more concerned with his ultimate goal, which was to be able to drive by these properties that he had designed, especially early in his career and see their mature beauty in the fullness of time. Jinny also has that ability. Now Paula Deitz, Editor of The Hudson Review, wrote the forward to Jinny's book. And here's what she wrote, Rare is the garden book, like this one, that makes the reader feel personally included as a friend in a long conversation with the writer.  Like Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, whom she lauds for his estate management in the 18th century, Blom is herself a cultural geographer who scopes out the historical features of paths, gates and antiquated farm buildings on a given property prior to drawing up a plan that proceeds almost instantaneously, a process fascinating to follow. Whether in town or country, with either single or multiple garden areas, Blom establishes architectural enclosures, like Cotswold drystone walls, prior to the overlay of her signature, beautifying horticulture, thus creating what she calls environments for intimate experiences'. And that is the quintessentialJinny Blom landscape. Now, this is how Jinny herself describes this book. She writes, So this book is about how I've developed my way of working over the last twenty years in progression from apprentice to journeyman to master craftsman.  It takes a long time and I've learned at the elbow of countless masters, not in a schoolroom.  I choose plants with compatibility in mind, appropriate materials arise from their locale, and I consider the people who will live in the garden, the wildlife, the weather. I'd like to share some of what I think about when designing, in the hope that it kindles the fires of excitement in others. I've climbed a big mountain to get to this point and hope there's a view worth sharing.   From the reviews of this book, the Amazon ratings, and the commentary by her peers, I can tell you that Jinny Blom definitely has a view worth sharing. She's hit it out of the park - out of the garden - with this beautiful book called The Thoughtful Gardener. You'll get to see images from so many of Jinny's gardens. You'll see her thoughtfulness and creativity in action certainly. But most of all, you'll get to know Jinny. She is funny and intelligent, and she thinks about plants and gardens and landscapes on a level that very few garden designers do. It feels like she's always one step ahead, and I think that's because Jinny does such a thorough job of researching and thinking about her garden designs - so that by the time you see the final product, it just seems so effortless. But I suppose that is Jinny's method behind the madness at the end of the day. This book is 256 pages of learning garden design with one of our modern masters, Jinny Blom. You can get a copy of The Thoughtful Gardener by Jinny Blom and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $16.   Botanic Spark 1847 Birth of Edgar Fawcett, American poet. Edgar wrote some famous garden verses. He wrote, [A]ll life budding like a rose and sparkling like its dew. And Come rambling awhile through this exquisite weather Of days that are fleet to pass, When the stem of the willow shoots out a green feather, And buttercups burn in the grass!   Edgar's poems often remind us of the value of all green living things. We say of the oak "How grand of girth!" Of the willow we say, "How slender!" And yet to the soft grass clothing the earth How slight is the praise we render.   My favorite Edgar Fawcett verses feature trees. Here's one about lovers speaking to each other using the language of birds: Hark, love, while...we walk, Beneath melodious trees… You'd speak to me in Redbreast;  I would answer you in Wren!   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.

2.00" Aaron Hannon, from Ballina, Mayo, co-founder of Luminate Medical. Aaron (22) tells us you about some of the many, many business ideas he's had, including his latest venture, a medical device to stop hair loss in those undergoing chemo therapy. 4m people a year, worldwide, lose their hair because of chemotherapy. 80% of those use wigs to cover their heads when they lose their hair and those wigs can cost up to €1,000 - so that adds up to a lot of money. Previously Aaron created a post-stroke paralysis shaving device when he was just 16, that he subsequently patented. He explains why this unique device didn't work and why he now looks for ideas that give 'investable returns'. He explains how the company got on to the hugely prestigious Y-Combinator accelerator programme (alumni include AirBnB and Stripe) and he tells us more about their current $2.5million fund raising, which is allowing them to hire more R&D staff.NUI Galway based Aaron was named a 2020 JCI Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World honouree in the medical innovation category. He was also named Mayo's Best Young Entrepreneur 2019.His hire in a heartbeat, Professor Declan O'Loughlin of TCD, 'the smartest person I know' according to Aaron.23.00" Mitchell O'Gorman, CEO xWave Technologies. Mitchell has a huge background in the advertising industry but is now running an X-Ray related software company that says it saves lives by ensuring that patients get 'the best test first'. 30% of radiology scans are 'inappropriate'. xWave has built a software to make sure that people only get the tests they need. It means there are huge savings for insurers and patients. The company's return on investment is 60X for those using the software! They have a partnership European Society of Radiology (there are 120,000 members). Mitchell explains his digital marketing and media background that has NO connection with an X-ray software (he had to check exactly what a radiologist did!). Pivoting from media to running a software was 'not easy'. The company has already raised €600,000 from leading radiologists in Ireland and the UK and is about to launch a crowdfunding call-out through Spark Crowdfunding.He asks TeamGBS (our listeners) for introductions to those in the medical profession who might be interested in their software solution.Mitchell's 'hire in a heartbeat' is Ciaran Lee, ex Intercom, who has already said 'no' but TeamGBS may have a way of changing his mind??44.00" Husband and wife team, Rachel and Brian Nolan, founders of Nobo (founded in 2012) have toiled away in the trenches, producing their dairy free ice-cream and chocolate (Nobo = NoCow!). However, in the last six months things have taken a big upwards trajectory. They have funded, moved into the former Helen Turkington store in Dublin's leafy Ranelagh suburb and they explain why they're basing their shop, artisan factory and world HQ in a non-industrial location. They also hint at a move away from ice-cream, to concentrate on their dairy-free chocolate that they've just introduced to markets in Netherlands and Canada. They discuss that (complicated) process and why they've chosen not to be in the UK at the moment.They have big ambitions, and cite Alpro and Oatly as being the kind of big company they would love to create.They're hiring with vacancies on Nobo.ie Their (jointly discussed) 'hire in a heartbeat' Yvonne Chenard of Patagonia Hosted on Acast.

Jack Byrne grew up in Ranelagh, Dublin. From his early days he always had an entrepreneurial streak with a social conscience. He set up a Co-Op in Coolock, where he had moved with his family but when larger supermarket operators forced him out of business, he decided that the community needed a stronger voice. To him that voice and way of expression came in the form of community radio. He campaigned tirelessly until he managed to get a licence for NearFM. There are now over 20 community radio stations in Ireland and Jack continues to be involved at different level to make sure that more are setup in years to come. ____________________________________________ All music is available on Spotify in the https://open.spotify.com/user/asplendori/playlist/52RfJG6gxwmVUazdOX8m9G?si=Wcl3A8-QSHa3J_K29yzWzQ (Social Fabric Playlist) _____________________________________________ Jack's Music Choice Billie Holiday - Strange fruit Fairport Convention - She moves through the fair Paul Robeson - Joe Hill Bill Haley & His Comets - Rock around the clock Sinead O'Connor & The Chieftains - The Foggy Dew Beethoven - Piano concerto No.3 - 1st Movement Frank Harte - James Connolly Support this podcast

Every early chemist has heard of Boyle’s law -- the equation that relates a gas’s pressure to its volume. But even if you have some awareness of Robert Boyle himself, it’s unlikely that you’ve heard of his sister...even though she was probably talking him through his ideas, either in person or by letter. This episode of Babes of Science was produced in collaboration with Distillations Podcast.  Babes of Science is a podcast that seeks to answer two questions: Who are the women who changed the trajectory of science?

Every aspiring chemist has heard of Boyle’s law—the equation that relates the pressure of a gas to its volume. But even if you know about Robert Boyle himself, it’s not likely you’ve heard of his sister, even though she probably talked him through many of his ideas. Katherine Jones, Lady Ranelagh (1615–1691), had a lifelong influence on her famous younger brother, natural philosopher Robert Boyle. In her lifetime she was recognized by many for her scientific knowledge, but her story was almost lost to time. This episode is a collaboration with Poncie Rutsch, the creator and host of Babes of Science. Poncie interviewed CHF’s own Michelle DiMeo, a historian who’s writing a book about Lady Ranelagh. Babes of Science is a podcast that tries to answer two questions: Who are the women who changed the trajectory of science? And why has it taken us so long to recognize their work?
