Klearcom, a leading provider of global contact centre testing solutions, has announced that it has surpassed 4,000 selection box donations to Waterford Food Bank. The Waterford-based company has donated selection boxes to Waterford Food Bank every year since 2022 and was on-site on the 18th of December to assist with packing efforts. All donations went directly to children in the local area through the charity's distribution partners. Waterford Food Bank, a non funded non profit programme of Buíon Phort Láirge (formerly Waterford Area Partnership), was established in 2017 to eradicate food poverty for some of Waterford's most disadvantaged communities. The majority of food parcels are delivered to St. Vincent de Paul service users but those in need can also be referred through Money Advice and Budgeting Service (MABS) and Focus Ireland. All food parcels are given to families around Waterford City at no cost to the end user. Klearcom has been a long-standing supporter of the charity, with staff regularly participating in volunteering activities and awareness campaigns, including organising and distributing food parcels at the packing centre. Mark Rohan, Chief Operating Officer, Klearcom said: "At Klearcom, we believe it's now more important than ever to give back and support our local community. As Christmas can be a challenging time for many families, we chose selection boxes in the hope that they will spark joy for children and their loved ones in Waterford. I want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to our incredible staff for their generosity and commitment, and to Waterford Food Bank for their ongoing partnership and invaluable work." Karen Glancy, Foodbank Administrator, Waterford Food Bank said: "While giving back is important all year around, charities are often overrun with people seeking help during the festive period. I have seen firsthand the difference a donation such as this makes to our local community. It's important to remember that even the smallest things can make a big impact and I want to thank Klearcom for their endless generosity in making this possible." See more stories here.

A new report on GAA demographics has found that 66% of Clare's population growth in recent years has been attributed to migration, both foreign and domestic, while the county is judged to have a low birth rate. Another significant finding from the demographics report is that Clare, along with Kerry, Cavan, Waterford, Tyrone, Donegal and Laois, has an outlying single large club, which was found to be affecting the competitive landscape. The GAA's National Demographic Committee have unveiled recommendations to tackle the issues outlined in the report, including targeted growth of new and existing clubs and support for clubs that struggle to field 15 players. To find out more, Alan Morrissey spoke with Clare GAA's Demographics Officer, Neil O'Brien.

In this episode of Words That Burn, I'm joined by Irish poet Clíodhna Bhreatnach to discuss her debut pamphlet, Pink Roses and Green. Together, we chat about a collection that sits at the intersection of the "nine-to-five grind," Millennial burnout, and a deep, tactile longing for the natural world.Clíodhna breaks down her unique approach to the "Millennial Lyric"; moving away from the pastoral and into the office kitchenette.

David Currid grows almost 50,000 tomato plants every year at Grantstown Nurseries — the family business his parents started after moving from Dundalk to Waterford in the late 1970s. What began as a single glasshouse is now a major supplier to Ireland's leading retailers. But it's a tough time to be a commercial grower. With only a handful of Irish tomato producers left, rising costs, cheap imports and tight margins make every season a battle for survival. In this episode of Food Matters, David talks to Mick Kelly of GIY about the realities of running a small food business today, why building trust with retailers matters, where Irish food systems are heading, and the simple love of growing that keeps him going. And yes — they tackle the age-old question: fruit or vegetable?

The Government has approved a six-month pilot programme that will see 128 frontline Gardaí equipped with tasers for the first time. The trial will run in Dublin Central, Waterford, and Kilkenny, and only Gardaí already using body-worn cameras will participate.Today Joe was joined by Declan Higgins, President of the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors to discuss. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A pilot project to issue tasers to frontline gardai is set to be rolled out following government approval today. The plan will run for 6 months, and will see over 100 uniformed members equipped with the devices in Dublin, Waterford and Kilkenny divisions. We were joined by the Vice President of the Garda Representative Association Niall Hodgins.

Frontline uniformed gardaí could be using Taser stun guns almost immediately under a proposal being brought to Government by Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan. The stun guns could be used in policing on the streets of Dublin, Waterford and Kilkenny over the Christmas period, if approved by Cabinet today.

Dave and Fionnuala dive into conversation about the controversial introduction of tasers for members of An Garda Síochána. As Dublin, Waterford, and Kilkenny become the testing grounds for this pilot project, the duo raise the question: what alternative non-lethal weapons could be used instead? Together, they share amusing suggestions ranging from the classic flick of a tea towel to the unconventional 'wet salmon' technique.

The manager of the Éire Óg hurlers is hailing the strength of the opposition as they came up short in their attempts to capture the Munster crown. The Waterford cemented themseleves as the kingpins of Munster hurling with a 0-21 to 1-9 win over the Clare champions to claim their fifth provincial title in seven years. The Townies attempted to rally late with a Danny Russel goal from a penalty, while a reflex save from former All Star, Stephen O'Keefe denied them a second. Éire Óg boss, Gerry O'Connor says, while he was pleased not to concede goals, they couldn't cope with Ballygunner's scoring power in the middle third.

Klearcom, a global leader in AI-driven IVR and telecom testing, has ranked third in Deloitte's list of the fastest growing technology companies across the island of Ireland. The Waterford-based company, who recently secured an investment from London-based private equity firm, Synova, received its official listing at this year's Technology Fast 50 Awards. The event took place in the Round Room at the Mansion House in Dublin. The Technology Fast 50, running since 1999, is one of Ireland's most prestigious technology award programmes and celebrates innovation and entrepreneurship within the industry. At last year's ceremony, Klearcom received the Rising Star accolade in honour of their promising growth trajectory and future potential. This year represents a major milestone in the company's journey, driven by its expanding market share in the IVR sector and the establishment of its physical base within the US. Klearcom specialises in AI-powered contact centre testing solutions, identifying and resolving issues in telecoms infrastructure for multinational companies such as Pfizer, Google, and Mastercard. Building on this year's success, the company is embarking on ambitious expansion plans for 2026 and are actively recruiting across the entire organisation. This includes senior leadership roles such as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), Chief Product Officer (CPO), Head of Engineering, as well as multiple roles across the sales department. Speaking about the company's official ranking, Liam Dunne, CEO and Co-Founder, Klearcom, said: "Our ranking of third on the Technology Fast 50 list is a standout highlight to what has been an exceptional year for Klearcom. We want to take a moment to thank Deloitte for this honour and our entire team for being instrumental to our success. "Following our partnership with Synova, we are incredibly excited to deliver on our vision for 2026. As we continue to scale globally, we are eager to welcome new talent across the organisation and invite prospective candidates to join our rapidly growing team. "Fuelled by this year's achievements, we look forward to reinforcing our position as a market leader in this space and achieve even greater heights in 2026 and the years ahead."

FLOPPY DAYS 157 - Interview with David Kay, KayPro - Part 1 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics  Arcade Shopper and https://thekeep.net  FutureVision Research  Tuc's Workbench  Hello, and welcome to episode 157 of the Floppy Days Podcast for November, 2025.  I am Randy Kindig, your host. We are currently covering computers introduced in the year 1982 and, to that end, this month I'm beginning a series of podcasts about the Kaypro line of computers.  Kaypro had a rich and varied family of computers; certainly much more so than I ever realized.  In researching Kaypro, I discovered that while Andrew Kay, the founder of the computer company, was no longer around, it turns out his son David, who ran the company for some time, was still around.  I was able to contact David and he graciously agreed to talk with us for the podcast.  Kaypro has a very interesting storyline and I hope you enjoy this.  We talked so long that I decided to break the interview into 2 parts, so you'll hear part 1 this month, and part 2 next month.  Following that, we'll delve into episodes covering history, tech specs, etc. on the Kaypro.  All the usual topics.  It looks as though I'll have 2 episodes covering those topics. I will have a video for this posted to the Floppy Days Podcast on YouTube.  One note here.  This is one of the last videos where I used a videoconferencing tool that just didn't do a great job.  It has a tendency to not keep up with video and you may note that the mouth doesn't stay in sync with the audio sometimes during the interview.  In addition, audio-wise, you may hear some low clicks throughout the interview.  I've since switched to Zoom and it seems to do a better job of audio and video quality, albeit more expensive. You will hear ads from some great vintage computer stores, themselves vintage computer fans, throughout the early part of this podcast.  For all of these storefronts, when you place an order, please mention Floppy Days in the notes or comments of the order.  Doing so will help support the podcast.  Many thanks!! Please let me know your thoughts. Enjoy!!

Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber have launched their new high-tech gift card, a replacement to their paper vouchers which have generated millions of euros in sales since 2008. Over 100 businesses are registered so far to accept the new Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber Gift Card, including shops, eateries, salons, venues and services. Available as either a physical card - a prepaid Mastercard that is swiped at the till - or a digital e-card that is added to digital wallets enabling 'tap to pay' technology. The card is available to buy online or in person from the Dungarvan Tourist Information Office on Main Street and from Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber at The Courthouse, Dungarvan. Organisations benefit from a new corporate ordering site, with the ability to order cards in chosen denominations and quantities with secure delivery. Digital Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber Gift Cards can be sent to multiple employees on the organisation's chosen date or time. Businesses in Dungarvan and West Waterford are welcoming the arrival of the new card. Karen Stack from Dungarvan Golf Club said: "Dungarvan Golf Club has over 850 members and is the biggest golf club in the area. Many members would receive the paper vouchers as a Christmas gift or bonus from work, which they could put towards their membership and enjoy it for the whole year. It makes a golf membership accessible to a range of people. "I think the benefit of the new Dungarvan & West Waterford Gift Card is that it will be more user friendly for all. I like the fact that it's easy to check the balance on the card - unlike other gift cards like One4All. People can keep their physical Dungarvan & West Waterford Gift Card in their wallet or purse or the digital version in their digital wallet, and this will encourage spending. I think it's a fantastic initiative for the town and we're lucky to have it." Hospitality businesses including cafés, restaurants, pubs and bars also accept the card. Vincent Pettit from 360 Cookhouse commented: "Our business comprises a catering company, accommodation and our popular restaurant on Castle Street. The paper vouchers have been a huge success story in Dungarvan. We accept lots of gift cards and vouchers but people really prefer the local option. As a business that sees lots of summer trade, people often spend the vouchers they've had for Christmas in the first 3 months of the year and it makes a massive difference to our business, helping us stay open year round. "As a busy restaurant, the ease of redemption of the new Dungarvan & West Waterford Gift Card is critical for us, and will be far easier than the paper vouchers. The new card will also be more customer friendly as they can spend it across multiple outlets with the card balance automatically updated, so they're not losing out on change. This will spread the benefit of the initiative to more businesses in Dungarvan, bringing people through the door with money to spend that the business has the chance to convert into regular customers. The customer wins and the business wins." Helen Barron from Helen's Lingerie adds: "Our Chamber is amazing, they are always striving to develop new initiatives. The paper vouchers have been successful at keeping a huge volume of money in Dungarvan. I think the new Dungarvan & West Waterford Gift Card will be a very helpful development and will have great appeal to a wide range of people, including the younger generation. Whether people spend their card with me or another business, it's all money that is staying in the town, and we all benefit." Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber CEO, Jenny Beresford, said the upgrade to a physical and digital card builds on the success of the paper programme: "Moving away from paper to a card system is something businesses and consumers have requested for some time. Having the dual physical and digital aspect is vital because digital is how people are paying now and by moving with the times, we have a future pr...

A researcher working on the design AI-driven methods for secure and trustworthy drone operations will share his expertise at one of the South East Science Festival's most keenly anticipated free events. 'Drones in Everyday Life - Promise, Potential, and Protection' is the title of Walton Institute researcher Iftikhar Umrani's talk in Clonmel Library in Tipperary on Wednesday, November 12, at 6.45pm. Pre-registration is not required. Drones are transforming how we live and work, from helping farmers monitor crops and improve harvests to enabling doorstep delivery of packages and medicines, he said ahead of the much-anticipated talk. "As these intelligent flying systems take on bigger roles in daily life, the UAVSec project at Walton Institute, SETU, funded by CONNECT Research Ireland Centre, investigates how to keep them secure ensuring they cannot be hacked or disrupted while in flight. The aim is to build trust in drone technology so it can serve communities with confidence and security. "Drones are opening new opportunities in areas such as precision farming, environmental monitoring, search and rescue, and the fast delivery of essential goods. They help reduce costs, save time, and support communities particularly in rural or hard-to-reach areas. "As drones become more autonomous, ensuring their safety, privacy, and security is essential. Public acceptance and regulatory frameworks also remain important challenges. Research under the UAVSec project focuses on protecting these systems from interference and building public trust in their use," the PhD researcher in the Department of Computing and Mathematics at Walton Institute, South East Technological University said. Iftikhar Umrani has been with Walton since March 2023, lives in Waterford City and has a keen interest in how emerging technologies can serve local communities safely and responsibly. The much-anticipated event is one of dozens on the South East Science Festival programme for 2025 from November 8 to 16 across pubs, restaurants, libraries, theatres, schools and community hubs in Waterford city and county, Clonmel and Carlow. All of the events across all three counties are designed to showcase how relevant all things science are in our everyday lives. Dr Sheila Donegan, Director of CALMAST, the South East Technological University's STEM engagement centre, said. "We're really looking forward to engaging with all sections of the community, from primary school children right up to adult-only audiences for this year's South East Science Festival programme. It's fun, it's engaging, it's entertaining and educational. We're delighted to work with Research Ireland and with our partners and sponsors, key among them the local authorities, SETU, key STEM employers in the region. "We now invite members of the public to peruse the schedule of events running across libraries, theatres, pubs, educational hubs, museums and so much more and to book their place. We will mix comedy and science and will be looking at why copper was mined in Waterford and if it could be again. We're examining fossils in the city, will host a coastal change workshop and walk and much more. Many events booked out within hours last year and we expect the very same for 2025," Dr Donegan said.

With COP 30 set to begin this day next week, a lot was made of Bill Gates' recent comments on climate change, but perhaps the way in which they were reported and interpreted is a large part of the problem we are having…Are scientists losing the communications battle to bad actors who willfully misrepresent the facts?Dr Cormac O'Raifeartaigh is Senior Lecturer in Physics at the South East Technological University in Waterford. He joins Seán to discuss.

What if the worst chapters of your life could become the foundation for your greatest impact? In this episode, Michael Dash, entrepreneur, author, and self-described "super connector," shares his remarkable journey from 20 years of addiction and a six-year legal battle to becoming a force for connecting entrepreneurs, building meaningful communities, and helping the formerly incarcerated rebuild their lives. Through two pivotal relationships (his entrepreneurial father and spiritual mentor Soleil Rad), Michael discovered how early business training and a transformed prayer practice could unlock his gift for creating life-changing connections. His mission? Bringing like-minded entrepreneurs together to create exponential impact while building the Impact Accelerator alongside Vince Covino and Satya. Michael reflects on how these mentors shaped his path at critical moments and why he believes authentic relationships and community (not transactional connections) are the keys to transforming both business and life.   [00:04:05] What Michael Does: The Super Connector Describes himself as a "super connector" who finds joy in introducing people from his network Runs Live Life Activated retreats focused on aligning entrepreneurs' physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual practices with their vision Has run six retreats over five years, resulting in three businesses, multiple lasting friendships, and relationships formed among participants Currently working with Vince Covino and Satya building the Impact Accelerator: matching impact-driven entrepreneurs with heart-centered investors [00:11:26] Background: From Recruiting to Retreats Spent 20 years in recruiting and staffing, running his own business for 13 years Natural training ground for being a super connector: "basically what you're doing is matchmaking" Lived in Tulum, Mexico for 4.5 years before recently relocating to Austin, Texas Now focused on the Impact Accelerator: training entrepreneurs to receive funding and matching them with investors who want to make an impact beyond just ROI [00:06:53] Connection Success Story: Winner's Circle Heath & Shelly Winter's Partnership: Heath: Tennessee-based entrepreneur, expert at writing and winning grants Shelly Winter: Served five years in prison for addiction, became #1 salesperson at Microsoft after they initially rescinded her offer due to her record Mission: Helping current inmates train while incarcerated and connecting them with companies willing to hire formerly incarcerated individuals Michael's insight: "Imagine if you were judged your entire life by the worst thing you ever did" Now part of the Impact Accelerator community [00:12:01] The Impact Accelerator Vision Bringing entrepreneurs looking for funding together with impact-driven investors Training entrepreneurs first: MVPs, what to ask for, technical requirements for funding Matching with "heart-centered investors": those who want ROI but also want to make the world better Philosophy: "Take a 10-year plan and make it a three-year plan" through strategic partnerships [00:15:10] The Million Dollar Question: A Key Distinction Michael's Perspective on "Life-Changing" Introductions: Challenges the premise: "I don't believe anybody can change your life except you" "Have I been introduced to people who have shifted my perspective, who have laid out another path that I could travel? Absolutely." Key insight: An experience is only life-changing if you take action afterward "It's really all about what each and every one of us actually does with that experience that can make it life-altering" [00:16:34] Pivotal Person #1: His Father The Entrepreneurial Foundation: Father was an entrepreneur who trained Michael from age 8 Worked in father's retail store and import/export business (collectibles: Swarovski, Baccarat, Waterford, Royal Doulton) Learned about sales, relationships, and "schmoozing" as a child Michael's reflection: "At the end of the day, they did the best with what they had" Their connection was through entrepreneurship and sales [00:19:08] Pivotal Person #2: Soleil Rad The Spiritual Transformation: Met in Tulum, Mexico while Soleil was running men's groups Men's work focused on expressing challenges, confronting shadows, sharing darkest secrets, and celebrating wins Reframed prayer as a partnership with God, not begging "Looking at God as a business partner": giving gratitude, asking for what you want, then showing God you're taking action [00:20:39] The Prayer Practice That Changed Everything Michael's New Approach: Training to be grateful throughout the day: for food, home, even rejections and setbacks "Be grateful the person just turned down the business deal. Be grateful I just got cut off. Be grateful the police pulled me over." Attitude of gratitude that "retrieves" the nervous system Philosophy: Training your vessel to receive the light from God [00:24:23] Kevin's Perspective: The Holy Spirit Connection Being a Vessel: Kevin shares story of Marcus Polls telling him: "This work you do is the Holy Spirit working through you" Realization that super connecting is about allowing yourself to be a vessel "Every conversation I have, I'm just here to be me and be the best steward I can" Partnership with God/Holy Spirit/Universe changes perspective on connecting [00:28:21] The Philosophy of Divine Connections Michael's Belief: "The right people are being brought to me for a reason. I don't need to know the reason now." Flow and keep building without attachment to knowing why Accomplishing more together than any individual can alone [00:30:41] Michael's Book: Chasing the High Chronicles his 20-year addiction journey and six-year legal battle Shares entrepreneurship journey and how he turned his life around Available on Amazon and Audible (Michael narrates the audiobook himself) Fair warning: "If you can handle a Jersey accent for four hours, get it on Audible" [00:31:37] Advice for the Shy: Step Into the Magic For Those Who Hesitate: Fear is what holds back the magic of connection If you're intimidated by someone, that's even MORE reason to introduce yourself Our minds are powerful: we can convince ourselves of anything (good, bad, or ugly) Honor your intuition: If it tells you to speak to someone, go speak to them Opening Questions That Work: Instead of "What do you do?" or "Where are you from?" Try: "What brings you joy in life?" Lead with inquisitive questions, not what you do If you struggle with questions, use ChatGPT for help [00:33:15] The Power of Questions Kevin's Story: At San Diego event, asked someone a question and spent the entire 15-minute break listening Person apologized for not learning anything about Kevin They became very good friends That same trip led to starting the Million Dollar Relationships Podcast KEY QUOTES "I don't believe anybody can change your life except you." - Michael Dash "Looking at God as a business partner." - Michael Dash "The right people are being brought to me for a reason. I don't need to know the reason now." - Michael Dash "Step through that fear because that fear is what holds back the magic." - Michael Dash CONNECT WITH MICHAEL DASH

Floppy Days 156 - Interview with Paul Schindler, Computer Chronicles Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics Arcade Shopper and https://thekeep.net FutureVision Research Tuc's Workbench Hello, and welcome to episode 156 of the Floppy Days Podcast for October, 2025. I'm Randy Kindig, your host for this "retro"spective covering vintage computers of the late 70's through the 80's and the people who were on the forefront of that incredible revolution. This month, I'm bringing you another interview episode with a tech media personality that was involved with the Computer Chronicles TV show (among many other things): Mr. Paul Schindler. Paul has a big personality and has a lot of great stories about Computer Chronicles and about the tech industry in general in those days. I really enjoyed talking with Paul and he made me laugh a lot! As you know, if you're a regular listener, I was able to interview Stewart Cheifet some ago about Computer Chronicles. Computer Chronicles was a great way to get information about computers in those early days and I've always wanted to do some follow-up. Thanks to S.M. Oliva, who is mentioned in the resulting interview, and who runs a blog called "Computer Chronicles Revisited", I was able to get in contact with Paul. Next up for Floppy Days will be a series of podcasts on the KayPro line of computers, for which I was able to line up an interview with a key figure from that company and was also able to find someone who knows a lot about the computer line to help me discuss the technical topics. Stay tuned for that series. As usual, I will begin this podcast going through new acquisitions and what I've been up to, upcoming vintage computer shows and more.

Sometimes we're at a crossroads, and other times we're at a bridge. During this episode we find out that Waterford notices more than he lets on, Moira gets some tough love from June that reminds her of who she was before, and Janine gets to make a decision- The first one she's made for herself in a long time . Hey- A stand is a stand no matter the cost! Also, apologies for the f*cked up audio- AGAIN! I swear I've gotten the hang of it for future episodes, but I couldn't figure out how to update it for already recorded audio... Oh, well! Sowwy!
