Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 13ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1975 chuaigh an costas maireachtála suas agus chuaigh sé thar an dara chéim. I 1997 bhí an rialtas chun faigh le huacht eacnamaíocht a mbeadh chun fás níos tapúla. I 2001 bhí na múinteoirí ó Bhunscoil St Kevin's sa Bhaile Beag chun stailc a bheith acu. Bhí fearg orthu de bharr nach raibh aon tacaíocht acu ón Roinn Oideachas do riachtanais speisialta faoin scéim Disadvantage Status. I 2005 shroich an Rock Of Cashel uimhir a haon ar Oifig na nOibreacha Poiblí sa tír. Dhíol siad 6 mhíle ticéid níos mó I gcomparáid leis an bhliain roimhe – timpeall 250 míle. Sin Hanson le Mmm Bop– an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1997 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1975 chuaigh John Lennon ar an teilifís don uair dheireanach nuair a bhí sé ar Salute To Sir Lew Grade agus chan sé Slippin And Slidin agus chan sé Imagine chomh maith. Rinne siad taifead ar an léiriú ag Óstán Waldorf Astoria an bhliain sin. I 2003 chan The Arctic Monkeys don chéad uair ag The Grapes I Sheffield sa Bhreatain agus fuair siad 27 punt tar éis an cheolchoirm. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Mary-Kate agus Ashley Olsen I Meiriceá I 1986 agus rugadh aisteoir Chris Evans I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1981 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 13th of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1975: the cost of living rise had already out paced the second phase. 1997: the next government were to inherit an economy that was to grow even faster than was predicted. 2001 - Teachers at St Kevin's National School in Littleton were to take one day of strike action. Teachers are angry that the Department of Education has failed to recognize its responsibilities towards providing additional supports under' the Disadvantaged Status scheme.  2005 - The Rock of Cashel has reached the number one spot on the Office of Public Works site in the country. Ticket sales have risen by 6.000 on the previous year to over 250.000  That was Hanson with Mmm Bop – the biggest song on this day in 1997 Onto music news on this day In 1975 John Lennon made his last ever TV appearance when he appeared on 'Salute To Sir Lew Grade', performing 'Slippin And Slidin', and 'Imagine'. The performance was recorded at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on April 18, 1975. 2003 Arctic Monkeys made their live debut at The Grapes pub in Sheffield, England. They received £27 from ticket sales. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actresses Mary-Kate and Ashely Olsen were born in America in 1986 and actor Chris Evans 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 next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

In this episode Antonia and Kate dive deep into what liturgy is and why it is important. After ‘Carnage' by Nick Cage they approach ‘The Presentation' Lk 2:22-40, and ‘St Kevin and the Blackbird' by Seamus Heaney whilst all the while the theme of birds wing through cathedrals, the old testament and too small a cell. Florilegium is a programme on Radio Maria which seeks to weave together liturgy, literature and  gardening in rambling hopefully fruitful ways. It is written and presented by Kate Banks and Antonia Shack. About the Creators Antonia leads a patchwork life with jobs including but not limited to mother, book designer, editor, actor and teacher. She and Kate began discussing poetry, liturgy and gardening at the Willibrord Fellowship reading group in London and are delighted to be continuing these conversations on Radio Maria.  Kate is a teacher of Literature, Philosophy and Theology, with a particularly keen regard for the poet and artist David Jones around whom many of her studies and her teaching-subjects have been based. She also briefly worked as a gardener in London, though she now lives with her little boy on the river Exe in Devon.

An Oamaru school's under fire for barring students from calling their parents when a group of pupils and staff went missing on a camp. Two students and two staff from St Kevin's College went missing overnight last month at Mount Somers. Search and Rescue teams found them the next morning. Parenting commentator, Nathan Wallis says if it's school policy, it'd be okay. "If it was imposed on them and there's nowhere written down that they're allowed to do that and the parents could have a reasonable expectation that they could contact their kids at any time- then it's not acceptable." The school says it's ordered a full review. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The latest LaoisToday Talking Sport Podcast is here - and once again, although there isn't much going on on the field at the moment, there is plenty to talk about off it. Host Alan Hartnett joins Steven Miller for the chat which begins with the latter's gripe surrounding Ireland's Fittest Family mixing up hay and straw bales. LaoisToday broke the news last week that Donie Kingston, among others, had opted to re-join the Laois senior football panel for 2021. Steven and Alan reflect on this boost for Mike Quirke's charges but ponder just when games will be allowed to resume. The episode concludes with an interview involving two of Laois's most promising young sportspeople. Portlaoise teenagers Aaron Doran and Colin Conroy both play soccer for St Kevin’s Boys/Bohemians in the League of Ireland – something they have done for the last five years after switching from Portlaoise AFC.The 17 year-olds won the U-17 League of Ireland title just before Christmas – defeating Shamrock Rovers in the final with both lads playing a starring role.Aaron scored inside the first minute and set up Evan Fergusson for the second a short time after. While Colin, who has been capped for the Republic of Ireland from U-15 level upwards, was subsequently named Man of the Match.The interview begins with some commentary from that final – which includes some very high praise for both lads from League of Ireland legend Conan Byrne – and then Aaron and Colin will tell Alan all about their journey so far.

If you are a biological male and want to live like a man then you are the biggest target of persecution in the west. The Uncuckables has an all-male panel to discuss this new discrimination with Tim Wilms, Editor in Chief of The Unshackled, David Hiscox, Editor of The XYZ, and Matty Rose from Matty's Modern Life. Men and boys should dare not express their attraction to or desire to have relations with the biological female. That's what a group of boys St Kevin's College in Melbourne found out on a local tram. An awkward teen in the UK will now be a sex offender for five years for an approach to a girl went wrong. Female models at sports events and in women's magazines have also found themselves unemployed due to their attractiveness being responsible for toxic masculinity. But of course, men are still allowed to be objectified. The biological female is also under attack as women can now get periods and transwoman must be accommodated in straight pornography. The custody battle of a 7 year old alleged transgender boy in Texas has gained international attention. Meanwhile, Canadian “transwoman” Jessica Yaniv lost her complaint against a salon not waxing her balls. Internationally 39 dead bodies have been discovered in a truck in England who were being people smuggled across Europe. Chile's left is protesting to demand bigger government, and Trump's troop movement with Syria has led to a ceasefire between Syria and Turkey. Mark Zuckerberg was back before Congress with the socialist Democrats now not happy with Facebook.

Psalm 61:4 NLT 'Let me live for ever in your sanctuary, safe beneath the shelter of your wings!' I led a pilgrimage to Glendalough in County Wicklow some years ago. It’s a medieval monastic community founded in the sixth century by St Kevin. We enjoyed an amazing time reflecting on the life of faith and participating in activities that brought to life the history and strong spiritual heritage of Ireland. At the entrance to the monastery there is, secured into the rock of the entrance, a large ring. This was for those seeking sanctuary from the law. If they grasped hold of it, they were invited to stay within the monastery for a year. If they found faith and as an act of contrition joined the monks as part of the community, their debt to society was deemed paid. I am sure years of prayer is a better return for society than an individual rotting in a prison. Maybe we need to establish sanctuary churches today? Sanctuary literally means a place of “refuge or safety from pursuit, persecution, or other danger”. So often we look to God as a sanctuary more in keeping with a spa. A spa in central London advertised itself as “...the ultimate act of love...a place of pure tranquillity...to relax, unwind and recover”; it was entirely about self-indulgence. However, God’s offer is to provide a point of ultimate resistance to the appetites and temptations that will only destroy our walk of faith. The simple point being that without surrender to God we must be eaten up and spat out by a fallen world. God offers us sanctuary, a place where we can live even as we wage war in our daily life within contemporary society. QUESTION: What does investing in cultivating your inner life look like? PRAYER: Dear God, address the wounds I carry; give me fine healing and refreshment as I continue to engage in the fight of my life for my own salvation and that of those around me.

Memory and Reconciliation: The Church and the Faults of the Past In the Creed we profess our faith that the Church is holy. Yet across 2000 years of history we’re challenged by many actions of Catholics that were not holy: wars, persecutions, violations of human rights. In 2000 the International Theological Commission published Memory and Reconciliation: The Church and the Faults of the Past, which explored this contrast. At our September t@p, Fr Justin Ford will take up those reflections and will show, with historical examples, how the essential holiness of the Church is untainted by the sins of her members. Fr Justin Ford grew up in Bentleigh, attending St Paul’s Primary School and St Kevin’s College. He worked as a structural engineer after studying at Melbourne University, later also gaining degrees in philosophy from the same institution. He entered the seminary in 2001 and was ordained priest in 2006. Fr Justin is now parish priest of St Mary’s Ascot Vale and Spiritual Director of the Melbourne Senatus of the Legion of Mary.  

Co-owner and Brand Manager, Donal O'Gallachoir, joins Pedro in the Whiskey Society this week to chat about Glendalough, an Irish Whiskey helping leading the charge in this new wave of Irish Whiskies that are coming to America.--From The Glendalough Website:The Glendalough Distillery was set up by a group of friends from Wicklow and Dublin with a passion for reviving the heritage of craft distilling in Ireland. In the 18th & 19th centuries there were over 200 licensed distilleries in Ireland and along with countless unlicensed ones produced diverse styles of poitín, whiskey, gin and even absinthe. Until recently that dropped to a small handful. After many an evening's banter and debate over why there weren't more craft distilleries in the birthplace of distilling, the friends convinced each other to leave the safety of their day jobs, head into the mountains and take a chance on something more meaningful (much like the man on the bottle, St Kevin). Together they built a craft distillery near their favourite spot in those mountains, Glendalough.Whiskey & Wood:A key influence on the flavour of our whiskey comes from the wood it has spent time in. There are countless nuances in how that wood effects and injects flavour, from the straightness of the tree or fineness of the grain to the size of the barrel or depth of the char. Somewhere between a lot, and most of the dominant flavours in whiskey come from the wood it has spent time in.There are countless nuances in how that wood effects flavour, from the straightness of the tree or fineness of the grain to the size of the barrel or depth of the char.Two of the main factors in how we choose our wood are: the breed of oak (where the wood is from), and the predecessor liquid (if it's a pre-loved barrel, what's been in it).As with most Irish whiskeys, ours matures in Bourbon barrels. But where we break with tradition is that we finish all of our whiskeys in a second, very different cask. These are selected especially to accentuate the flavours already inherent in a given whiskey.AMERICAN BOURBON BARRELSAs mentioned, our whiskeys do the bulk of their time in first-fill American white oak Bourbon barrels. These 200 litre casks lay the flavour foundation that has become the backbone of the Irish whiskey taste.Felled in Missouri at about 80 years old, they are milled, seasoned and coopered in Kentucky and filled with Bourbon.American oak casks impart a lot of flavour. Besides the fact that they've held Bourbon before we get them, the charred wood truly transforms new-make Irish whiskey. We use a level 4 "alligator char" which really brings the wood alive in terms of flavour.This adds that charcoal mellowness, the sweetness of vanilla and caramel that perfectly compliment the flavours already present in the spirit. They bring to the whiskey a beautiful golden hue, and smoothen it to a creamy mouth-feel.However we're always seeking out new flavours, the best oak around the world and other interesting casks.SPANISH OLOROSO SHERRY CASKSTo finish our Double Barrel, we use 500 litre Oloroso sherry butts made from European oak, felled in the ancient deciduous forests of Northern Spain. A tree must be about 120 years old before it's good for barrel making.The casks are lightly toasted rather than charred. So we get clearer wood flavours. Then there's the Oloroso. A dark, fruity and nutty fortified wine from Montillo, Spain, the Oloroso that seasons our casks is made from the famed Pedro Ximenez grape. After about 2 years of holding Oloroso, we then inspect and choose the casks.The intense flavours they bring get into our whiskey fast. Raisins, sultanas, candied peel, cinnamon, nutmeg, and Christmas pudding are all clearly discernible in the whiskey within 6 months, as the liquid turns from gold to amber.DUBLIN PORTER BARRELSFor our 7 year old single malt, it's Dublin porter barrels. Although these barrels are also ex-bourbon, they become a different beast once craft porter spends a year in them.We use barrels from the 5 Lamps brewery in Dublin. Their "Black Pitts Porter" is a rich, black beer with deep, dark flavours. Made with chocolate malt and roasted barley, the porter is rich and creamy with complex aromas and a smooth velvety texture.All of this gets into the oak and comes back out into our whiskey to accentuate the robust malts of both liquids. Flavours of cocoa from the porter mix with the citrus notes of the whiskey to result in dark chocolate orange flavours, with toffee and even coffee notes on the finish. It's an unusual and noticeably different whiskey, that you want to return to, often.JAPANESE MIZUNARA BARRELSFor our 13 year old single malt, it's the legendary Mizunara oak. Found in forests on the rugged, volcanic island of Hokkaido, the wood is very soft and porous with a tight grain, which is good for flavour but hard to cooper and prone to leaking. It has very high levels of vanillins that impart luxurious woody flavours fast.Ours is then brought to the south of Japan to air dry in Miyzaki before coopering at Japan's only independent cooperage. Here we personally inspect the wood before it's worked by Japan's oldest cooper. The casks are lightly charred and shipped as virgin barrels over 6,000 miles to us.Mizunara packs a punch of unique, exotic and exquisite woody flavours. Some say sandalwood, we'd agree, but that's just the beginning. It amplifies flavour and brings the mouth-feel to velvety proportions, it layers on extra vanilla, honey and even coconut.It makes for a pretty unique take on Irish whiskeyIRISH OAKProbably the rarest of all casks is Irish Oak. Before Ireland was known as "the emerald isle", it was known through out the old world as "the wooded isle". They say a squirrel could cross the whole country touching nothing but oak.In particular, Glendalough oak was famed for boat building as far back as Viking times (The largest Viking ship ever built was "The Sea Stallion of Glendalough"). Even the mountains that cradle the valley are named for the oak forests that covered them - Camaderry Mountain (Sliabh Céim an Doire, meaning "the mountain pass of the oak wood") and Derrybawn Mountain (Sliabh Doire Ban, meaning "the mountain of white oak")We're very excited and proud to play a part in bringing Irish oak back into use for aging Irish whiskey, helping to manage these ancient forests, and doing our bit for the regeneration of these beautiful, broad-leaf, deciduous woods.We are sourcing trees from within walking distance of the distillery to get to a truer taste of Wicklow Whiskey, using Wicklow barley and Wicklow water. We are a little while away from releasing liquid from this great experiment, but watch this space, it will be sooner than you think!glendaloughdistillery.com--What we drank:Glendalough Double Barrel Irish WhiskeyGlendalough Black Pitts Single Malt (Aged 7 Years)Glendalough Mizunara Cask Finish Single Malt (Aged 13 Years)--Follow us:spiritguidesocietypodcast.comfacebook.com/spiritguidesoctwitter.com/spiritguidesocinstagram.com/spiritguidesochttps://www.youtube.com/c/SpiritGuideSociety--Music by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Dr Victoria Coffey was one of the first female paediatricians in Ireland. After graduation from RCSI, Coffey worked at the Meath and Coombe Hospitals before being appointed in 1943 as medical officer in charge of children at St Kevin's Hospital. During this period, she developed her interest in the neglected field of congenital birth defects and began a distinguished publishing career. Appointed lecturer in teratology at Trinity College, Coffey went on to conduct pioneering research on a range of subjects including metabolic disorders in the newborn and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). In 1979 she was elected a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland and was also a founding member of their Faculty of Paediatrics. She was the first female recipient of RCSI's Distinguished Graduate Medal, first woman President of both the Irish Paediatric Association and the RCSI Postgraduates' Association, and President and founding member of the Irish and American Paediatric Society.

Psalm 31:1 NLT 'O Lord, I have come to you for protection; don’t let me be disgraced. Save me, for you do what is right.' Some years ago I lead a retreat to Glendalough in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is renowned for a large Celtic monastic site that was founded in the sixth century by St Kevin. It is well worth a visit. Just inside the entrance etched into the wall are a Celtic cross and a large fixed ring. If someone fleeing from the authorities reached the monastery and grasped hold of this ring, then they could claim sanctuary, placing themselves under the authority of the monastery. They enjoyed freedom from secular prosecution for twelve months, over which time they determined if they would yield all of their life and property to God and take vows. If not, then they were handed back to the authorities. Sanctuary is a metaphor for our own grasping hold of God and asking for both forgiveness and mercy. We are never freed from life’s difficulties, but know that God is faithful and will sustain us since we have yielded our lives and property to him. Sometimes the demands of life place choices before us. Will we continue with God, or take back control and take our chances in a turbulent world? The psalmist speaks of seeking refuge (NIV). Just as someone sought sanctuary in the monastery, so we are placing all of our trust in the integrity and faithfulness of God. We have the power to yield, yet no power to influence the outcome. Our trust is based upon a promise, and promises are difficult to establish in law. A promise is always dependent upon someone keeping their word and can appear very insubstantial. Yet, promise is all we have in return for our commitment. QUESTION: Have you taken refuge in God? PRAYER: Lord, may my hope and trust be in you today.

On this weeks garden podcast Peter Donegan chats with Eoin Kearney of Glendalough Distillery, an Irish craft whiskey (they also make gin) distillery set up in 2011. To the how this ended up on a garden podcast ? Eoin was originally selected to take part in the Bord Bia (the Irish Food and Horticulture promotional board)/ Smurfit fellowship programme before he joined the team. The master distillers also produce a wild botanical gin – one for every season – the plants of which are hand picked (foraging, if you will) from the Wicklow mountains. Of note in that wild plant selecting department the team work closely with Geraldine Kavanagh of Wild Wicklow Foods. We of course go a stage further to chatting about how they capture the flavours and scents from such plant life, what plants and as only Peter can do, St Kevin holding a blackbird, why 5 mates set up their own venture, the history of Poitín (an illegal beverage distilled from potatoes) made from malted barley and sugar beet….. the list is literally endless. The Sodshow garden podcast airs every live Friday at 3pm and can be found in iTunes and all good podcast stores from 4pm.
