Our Father's Day program is going to focus heavily on playing it safe and protecting yourself and your family from harm all summer long starting off with the Red Cross to brief us on the latest hurricane and storm season outlook, preparedness tips, and opportunities for you to give back as a disaster volunteer - or even more critically - as a blood or platelet donor. Then we'll bring in a representative from AAA Northeast covering a lot of ground as we discuss the 100 Deadliest Days, pedestrian / motorcyclist / bicyclist safety, hot car dangers, and the dangers of inferior fake car safety seats. And we'll continue our Pride Month In Focus series welcoming back Greater Bridgeport Pride to celebrate their 15th Anniversary, to chat about the Pride Month activities still to come in and around the Park City this June, and how this organization is growing and adapting to the needs of the LGBTQ+ community across the region.

In this episode, we will talk about the Fowler position in surgery, its current and historical uses, the person behind the name, and the legend of its development. Along the way, we'll cover the origins of the Red Cross and Geneva Convention, the discovery of the pancreatic duct, and more. Enjoy!

Havre Red Cross Disaster Training Event - Pt. 1

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 4ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1976 bhí an faitíos d'ardú pá laghdaithe mar go raibh comhaontú nua don phá náisiúnta. I 1993 bhí comhairleoir an Taoiseach, Dr Con Power in argóint talamh de 6 milliún punt. I 1998 bhí an Chros Dhearg sa chontae ag iarradh míle saorálaí a traeináil. An phlean a bhí ann ná chun uasghrádú a dhéanamh ar na sheirbhísí sa chontae agus lainseáil sé I Ros Cré ó Teachta Dála Michael Smith. I 2006 lochtaigh comhairleoir Sinn Féin Seamus Morris mar gur labhair sé le TippFM faoi na fadhbanna sóisialta san eastát tithíochta comhairle nua Árd Crúidín. Dúirt sé níor chóir an chomhairle daoine áirithe a chur faoi dhíon in Árd Crúidín mar gur daoine achrannach iad. Sin Madness le House Of Fun – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1982. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1977 shroich The Jam uimhir a 40 ar na cairteacha lena chéad amhrán In The City sa Bhreatain. Lean siad ar aghaidh agus fuair siad 18 amhrán eile ar na cairteacha sa Bhreatain ón chéad amhrán I 1977 go dtí a amhrán deireanach I mí na Nollaig I 1982 – agus fuair siad ceithre uimhir a haon chomh maith. I 1992 tháinig an sheirbhísí post I Meiriceá amach le torthaí den pholl a bhí ann chun cinneadh a dhéanamh faoi cén pictiúir de Elvis Presley a bhí siad chun úsáid ar stampa comórtha. Bhuaigh an pictiúr nuair a bhí sé níos óige. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Russell Brand sa Bhreatain I 1975 agus rugadh aisteoir Angelina Jolie I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1975 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sí. 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 4th of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1976: Fears of a mad scramble for pay rises diminished last night with the proposed new national wage agreement. 1993: Taoiseachs consultant, Dr con power was in a £6m land row. 1998 -Tipperary Red Cross set out to train 1.000 volunteers. A comprehensive plan to upgrade the range of services offered by the Red Cross within County Tipperary was launched in Roscrea by the Minister for Defence, Michael Smith, T.D.  2006 -Sinn Féin's Cllr Seamus Morris was criticised for speaking to Tipp FM about social problems in the council's new housing estate Árd Crúidín. Cllr Morris said the council should not have housed certain people in Árd Crúidín because they were known troublemakers.  That was Madness with House Of Fun – the biggest song on this day in 1982 Onto music news on this day In 1977 The Jam's debut single 'In The City' made No.40 on the UK singles chart. They went on to score 18 consecutive Top 40 singles in the United Kingdom, from their debut in 1977 to their break-up in December 1982, including four No.1 hits. 1992 The US Postal Service announced the results of a poll conducted to see which picture of Elvis Presley should be used on a commemorative stamp. The young Elvis beat the (older and larger) Vegas Elvis. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – comedian Russell Brand was born in the UK in 1975 and actress Angelina Jolie was born in America on this day in 1975 and this is some of the stuff she has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast! If you haven't listened to Part 1 of this conversation on autism and water safety yet, be sure to go check that out first—it's episode #125. In that episode, I sat down with Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in working with autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert with experience at FEMA and the CDC. Together, we shared eye-opening statistics and essential first steps families can take to begin protecting their children around water. In this episode—Part 2—we're diving even deeper. You'll hear more from Dayna and Andy about why swim lessons alone aren't enough, how to use visual supports to reinforce water safety, and the critical role of community awareness in preventing drowning. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist, this conversation is full of actionable strategies and resources to help keep autistic children safe. Let's get started. Bio Andy Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-Paramedic is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute for Childhood Preparedness, where he leads efforts to strengthen emergency planning, disaster recovery, and resilience across early childhood and community-based settings. With more than 20 years of experience in public health, emergency management, and health policy, Andrew has worked at the local, state, federal, and nonprofit levels-supporting initiatives that help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. Andy is a frequent contributor and subject matter expert for Sesame Street in Communities, where he supports efforts around preparedness, disaster response, and resilience for families and caregivers. A former firefighter, paramedic, and hazardous materials technician, he has also served as a Health Policy Fellow in the U.S. Senate, a senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and as a Senior Preparedness Advisor supporting Super Bowl 46 and the Indianapolis 500. Andy is an award-winning author of the Preparing for the Unexpected book series, and his work has been recognized by organizations including the Red Cross, the City of El Paso, and Sesame Street, where he was named a Sesame Street Hero. His focus is on practical, real-world strategies to help individuals, organizations, and communities be better prepared for whatever challenges may come. Andy is the proud father of two daughters, aged 1 and 4. Dayna Harvey is a Water Safety and Drowning prevention educator as well as a Swim Lesson Teacher, who specializes in working with children with autism and their parents. She has been teaching swim lessons for the past 35 years and is certified through the Red Cross as well as a program called AutismSwim. Dayna is on a MISSION to educate and empower parents with information, strategies and hands on tools to help them keep their children safer in and around water because we MUST eradicate childhood drowning. The autism community saw more drownings in 2024 than in any year prior and that has intensified Dayna's commitment to reach more parents with her message and her methods. Dayna and the Waiting Whale kids, who she created to help engage both parents and children in the education process, have developed the "Where there is water, I will WAIT!" program and The Waiting Whales - Water Safety Kit Water Safety With Miss Dayna Links: www.WaterSafetyWithMissDayna.com www.Facebook.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna www.Instagram.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna Miss Dayna's Water Safety Kit: https://watersafetywithmissdayna.com/water-safety-kit Institute For Childhood Preparedness Links: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/ Free Safety-Related Social Stories: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/printables Takeaways Water safety is crucial for all children, especially autistic children. Visual cues and predictable routines enhance learning for children. Creating a waiting area can significantly reduce drowning risks. Parents must be fully attentive when children are around water. Consistency in teaching water safety is key to success. Using a water safety kit can help establish safe practices. Children can learn to wait before entering water environments. Swim lessons should focus on both water safety and swimming skills. Parents should evaluate their home environment for water hazards. Empowering parents with knowledge is essential for preventing drownings.

The head of the International Red Cross says what is happening in Gaza has become "worse than hell on earth" - and surpasses any acceptable legal, moral and humane standard. Former foreign correspondent and political editor for The Independent, Donald Macintyre spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Tuesday morning brought another shooting near a food distribution site in Gaza — the third in as many days. This time, more than two dozen people were killed as they tried to collect emergency food aid, according to Gaza health officials and the International Committee of the Red Cross. The Israeli military acknowledged firing warning shots at "several suspects" moving toward their position, and fired additional shots at individual suspects who, they said, did not retreat. The violence may have something to do with the way Israel is now managing food distribution in Gaza. It's not how aid is typically given out in war zones.Avril Benoit, CEO of Doctors Without Borders within the U.S., explains what she sees is wrong with the new aid plan in Gaza.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. Today, I'm joined by two incredible guests—Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in teaching autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert who has worked with FEMA and the CDC. Together, we're diving into a topic that's incredibly important—and honestly, one that doesn't get talked about enough: water safety for autistic children. As a speech-language pathologist and someone who's worked closely with autistic children for over two decades, I've seen just how real the risks are. Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for autistic kids, and it's something we have to bring more awareness to. In this episode, we're not just sharing facts and statistics—we're getting personal and practical. Dayna and Andy offer eye-opening insight and simple, proactive strategies that parents, caregivers, and educators can use right away. We'll talk about risk assessments, layers of protection, communication tools, and the role of community awareness in preventing tragedies. My goal with this conversation is to empower you with actionable steps so you can feel more confident and prepared when it comes to water safety. Let's work together to protect and support our little learners—not just in the classroom, but in every part of their lives.

Autistic children are 160 times more likely to drown than their neurotypical peers. 50% of autistic children have a tendency to wander or elope. Drowning is not a child problem; it is an adult problem. Parents need to be proactive in water safety education. Water safety education is different from swimming lessons. Visual supports and predictable routines are essential for teaching water safety. Community involvement is crucial in preventing drowning incidents. Layers of protection are needed with it comes to water safety. Teaching children to wait and understand boundaries around water is vital. Fear should not prevent families from enjoying water activities; education is key.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Samit D'Cunha, a legal advisor at the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), about the innovative Digital Emblem Project. For over 160 years, the Red Cross emblem has symbolized protection in conflict zones, designating medical and humanitarian organizations as safe from attack. Now, as warfare increasingly extends into cyberspace, the ICRC is developing a digital version of this emblem to provide the same legal protections for online infrastructure. We examine the increasing frequency of cyberattacks on hospitals and aid organizations during armed conflict, and why the Digital Emblem is more crucial now than ever. Samit explains the technical side of the project, including the use of cryptographic certificates and DNS systems to ensure global, decentralized protection. He also discusses the importance of legal recognition and trust-building across governments, tech companies, and humanitarian sectors. As the digital battleground expands, this emblem could play a crucial role in safeguarding lives and ensuring that humanitarian operations continue uninterrupted. We also explore the challenges of implementing this system without increasing organizations' vulnerability, and why support from over 100 tech companies and states is crucial for its success. If you're interested in the intersection of cybersecurity, law, and humanitarian efforts, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Just 24 hours after being listed for a transplant, a new heart became available, and her surgery at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta was a success. Gracie quickly recovered, returning home in 10 days and resuming school, ballet, and her favorite activities. This summer, she looks forward to swimming, seeing friends, and attending CHOA’s Camp Braveheart for transplant recipients. Gracie embraces her journey, saying her scar symbolizes her second chance at life.

Today is Thursday, May 22nd and Happy birthday to Tommy John I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sodas All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville A Lawrenceville home caught fire early Wednesday after a lightning strike, displacing a family of 11 and injuring a firefighter. Fire crews arrived at 2:08 a.m. to find flames in the attic. While battling the blaze, the roof collapsed, injuring a firefighter who was treated and released for non-life-threatening injuries. The family safely evacuated after spotting the fire, and the Red Cross is assisting them. Firefighters controlled the blaze by 2:30 a.m., using multiple units to prevent further damage. Officials stress the importance of fire escape plans and offer community education resources for safety. STORY 2: Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative The Gwinnett County Police Department launched a summer safety initiative on May 20 to boost officer visibility, reduce crime, and enhance community engagement. Key efforts include increased patrols in high-traffic areas like malls and parks, daily crime suppression operations, and visible cruise lights on patrol cars. A major focus is community engagement through weekly Chief’s Walks, where residents can meet police leaders, share feedback, and build trust. The initiative aims to ensure a safe, proactive summer while fostering stronger relationships between officers and the community. STORY 3: Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Gwinnett County celebrated the reopening of an expanded homeless outreach center in Norcross, operated by the Latin American Association (LAA) and HTS. Originally opened in 2021 but closed due to flood damage, the center now offers comprehensive services, including a youth drop-in center, a shelter for young mothers, food, clothing, and hygiene facilities. Staff, many with lived homelessness experience, provide case management, housing navigation, and life skills training. The center aims to address rising homelessness, especially among working families and youth, with a focus on stabilizing lives. The $1.2M annual operation relies on grants and donations to sustain its mission. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Kemp touts proposed Georgia Power rate freeze Georgia Power's plan to freeze rates for three years, announced this week, was praised by Gov. Brian Kemp as beneficial for customers and Georgia's economic growth. The agreement, pending Public Service Commission (PSC) approval, cancels a planned rate case and follows three rate hikes in recent years due to rising electricity demand. Critics argue the freeze won't prevent increases tied to fuel and hurricane recovery costs, which the PSC will address next year. Kemp dismissed claims of political timing, emphasizing the freeze's role in attracting businesses. A public hearing is set for June 26, with a vote on July 1. STORY 5: Philadelphia Winn Chapter DAR awards Good Citizens and American History Essay Contest Winners Nine Gwinnett County high school students were honored by the Philadelphia Winn Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) for their citizenship and writing skills.

Magical objects aren't just forged—they're found. In this solo episode, I explore the secret life of enchanted tools: the knife with a story, the crystal touched by a world-mountain, the wand bought in a witch town that still summons fairy queens. What gives an object its power? Sometimes it's planetary timing and whispered invocations—but sometimes it's stranger tales than that. This is a medium salsa reflection on self-initiation, storycraft, and the agency of objects that choose you. Note: Here's a link to the YouTube video about self-initiation I mention in this episode. Chapters Who Chose Whom? Opening questions on agency, destiny, and magical initiation. What Makes an Object Magical? Beyond grimoires—why backstories matter as much as consecrations. Salsa Scale and Self-Initiation How this podcast fits into your current content taxonomy. Denethor, Pippin, and the Agentic Object Tolkien's Anglo-Saxon worldview and the power of mythic artifacts. Crystals in the Andes Live tale-weaving on sacred mountains and magical stones. The Library Angel & YouTube Algorithms Synchronicity, digital spellwork, and unexpected transmissions. Strange Tales and Warped Realities How magical items—and magical people—bend the world around them. Grimoires vs. Found Objects Cutting Hawthorn at dawn vs. fairy queen summoning from a witch-town wand. Your Life Already Has Strange Tales Suburban magic, Red Cross births, and the imperative to gather and weave.
