  • Hey Guys. and Welcome Back to Another Episode of the Ride. This Is Nicole
    Hey guys. And welcome back to another episode of the ride. This is Nicole. And this is Jillian. And today we got to sit down and talk to Elaine Bogan, who is a director over at Dreamworks. And she is coming out with her first feature film called Spirit Untamed, which, um, you know, if you grew up in the early two thousands or you were raising kids, then, uh, you've probably seen the original spirit stallion of the Cimarron. I know that it was a fan favorite of mine when I was a kid. I remember going to the movie theaters and seeing it. And, um, but now they're coming out with a new movie and it is headed to theaters this week. So by the time this podcast comes out, it'll actually have been in theaters over the weekend. It came out June 4th. Um, but I was so excited that they came out with a new film. And, uh, you know, now my friend's kids who they're raising are, are getting to, you know, experience the same thing that I kind of did when I was a kid. And I got to go to the theater. And see, um, you know, spirit in, in the big screen. And so, uh, Jillian and I actually got to watch the film a little earlier. Um, and so Jillian, what did you think of the film loves it? I, I thought that the overall storyline of showing a girl and the bond with her horse and how impactful that can be was, was very well done.

CODY "BUFFALO BILL" AS TOLD BY HIS SISTER HELEN CODY WETMORE TO THE MEMORY OF A MOTHER WHOSE CHRISTIAN page 1 / 365 CHARACTER STILL LIVES A HALLOWED INFLUENCE GENEALOGY OF BUFFALO BILL. The following genealogical sketch was compiled in 1897. The crest is copied from John Rooney's "Genealogical History of Irish Families." It is not generally known that genuine royal blood courses in Colonel Cody's veins. He is a lineal descendant of Milesius, king of Spain, that famous monarch whose three sons, Heber, Heremon, and Ir, founded the first dynasty in Ireland, about the beginning of the Christian era. The Cody family comes through the line of Heremon. The original name was Tireach, which signifies "The Rocks." Muiredach Tireach, one of the first of this line, and son of Fiacha Straivetine, was crowned king of Ireland, Anno Domini 320. Another of the line became king of Connaught, Anno Domini 701. The possessions of the Sept were located in the present counties of Clare, Galway, and Mayo. The names Connaught-Gallway, after centuries, gradually contracted to Connallway, Connellway, Connelly, Conly, Cory, Coddy, Coidy, and Cody, and is clearly shown by ancient indentures still traceable among existing records.

    DISTURBED DUBLIN DISTURBED DUBLIN THE STORY OF THE GREAT STRIKE OF 1913-14 WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE INDUSTRIES OF THE IRISH CAPITAL BY ARNOLD WRIGHT LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO 39 PATERNOSTER ROW. LONDON FOURTH AVENUE & 30th STREET, NEW YORK BOMBAY. CALCUTTA, AND MADRAS 1914 All rights reserved ,3^^ ^^l'' PREFACE The great labour upheaval in Dublin in the latter half of last year was marked by such extraordinary features, and excited so large a share of public attention during the time that the struggle continued, that no apology will probably be deemed to be necessary for the publication of this volume. The author's aim has been to write a succinct and impartial history of the Larkinite movement in Dublin, from the period of its inception in 1908 until the resumption of the normal industrial life of the city early in the present year, in circumstances which marked the ignominious defeat of the attempt to establish a pecuHarly pernicious form of Syndicalism on Irish soil. During a visit of several weeks' duration paid to Dublin in the Spring, the author had the opportunity of meeting many of those who had taken an active part in the conflict, and their views freely and courteously given were a valuable aid to a comprehension of the true character of the influences which brought about this memorable episode in Ireland's industrial history. But to a large extent in the accompanying pages Larkinism has been allowed to speak for itself, and it is hoped that the numerous elegant extracts culled from the press organ of the movement, together with the equally illumi- nating quotations from the speeches of Mr.
