  • Dale Winton Tribute for Archive
    DALE JONATHAN WINTON TV presenter, disc jockey and entertainer 22nd May 1955 - 18th April 2018 Tribute taken from ceremony conducted on Tuesday 22nd May 2018, at One Marylebone, London NW1 4AQ By Rupert Morris, Humanists UK Even to those who hardly knew him, Dale Winton was a bringer of joy. He connected with people of all types and all ages, all over the English-speaking world, communicating a flirtatious yet fundamentally innocent love of life – and laughter. It is hard to say the name, or even think of him, without smiling. Dale Jonathan Winton was born in North London on 22 May. His father, Gary Winner, was a Jewish businessman in his forties, more than 20 years older than his mother Sheree, a beautiful and glamorous woman who had just embarked on a showbusiness career that was to bring her TV appearances alongside Terry-Thomas and Frankie Howerd, as well as parts in several British films. Dale was named after Dale Robertson, the handsome star of the TV western series Wells Fargo. Young Dale had quite a conventional upper middle-class upbringing, with a nanny, then a succession of au pairs. They had holidays at Cannes on the French riviera. At the age of eight, Dale was sent to prep school, initially as a boarder, which he hated. He was rather a chubby 1 boy with no interest in team games and little enthusiasm for academic study. He would have preferred to spend more time hanging around the film studios where Sheree was getting work. This was around the time that Sheree got a part in the first Beatles film, A Hard Day’s Night, and young Dale was soon starstruck.

  • Irish Cross-Border Cooperation: the Case of the Northwest Region
    IRISH CROSS-BORDER CO-OPERATION: THE CASE OF THE NORTHWEST REGION Alessia Cividin IBIS working paper no. 64 IRISH CROSS-BORDER CO-OPERATION: THE CASE OF THE NORTHWEST REGION Alessia Cividin Working Papers in British-Irish Studies No. 64, 2006 (also printed as MFPP working paper no. 14) Institute for British-Irish Studies University College Dublin IBIS Working Papers No. 64, 2006 (also printed as MFPP working paper no. 14) © the author, 2006 ISSN 1649-0304 ABSTRACT IRISH CROSS-BORDER COOPERATION: THE CASE OF THE NORTHWEST REGION Traditionally grasped as a division, the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland is increasingly understood as forming an individual unit made up of multiple connections. This paper analyses this border as assumed, and tries to de- velop its meaning within a European setting. The academic focus is on regional studies, political geography, spatial planning and border literature, and the paper puts forward an approach to national and regional borders as whole entities to be planned for and managed. The paper analyses variation in the impact of cross- border cooperation in the Northwest region on regional development and the spatial perception of it. The role of stakeholders and of local institutional relationships is considered, and the importance of government and institutional policies, and cul- tural factors, for the growth and success of cross-border activity is examined. The paper focuses, in particular, on recent cross-border projects in the Northwest re- gion. Publication information Revised version of a paper presented at a study group meeting on “Planning for and working in Border areas”, Derry, 13 October 2005, as part of the programme Map- ping frontiers, plotting pathways: routes to North-South cooperation in a divided is- land .

  • Communicorp Media January 2021 Executive Summary
    Submission to the Future of Media Commission By Communicorp Media January 2021 Executive Summary Communicorp Media reaches 1.75 million weekly listeners and has a significant online, digital, and social audience. Independent Radio has 2.5 million listeners daily, close to double the daily reach of RTÉ Radio. Communicorp Media and Independent Radio have 800,000 more listeners aged Under 45 than RTÉ Radio and are vitally important in reaching a younger audience. 376,000 people listen to Communicorp Media radio stations only. Communicorp Media provides more than 12,000 hours of Public Service Content a year. Public Service Broadcasting is about the content broadcast rather than the ownership of the broadcaster. RTÉ is not the only provider of Public Service Broadcasting. Radio scored a trust rating of 79% in a recent IPSOS MRBI poll. This compares to 29% for Facebook and 34% for Twitter, showing radio’s importance in an era where fake news is prevalent. 70% of daily radio listening is to a non RTÉ service. This shows content on Independent Radio has a distinct public value. Digital now accounts for 54% of all advertising spend in Ireland with Google and Facebook controlling 40% of the market. Radio advertising spend is down nearly 30% in the last ten years. Submission to the Future of Media Commission By Communicorp Media - January 2021 Page 2 The funding of journalism on Irish radio is crucially important and must be supported, otherwise the dominance of global digital players in the advertising market will have an effect on the quality of journalism produced.

  • Breaks Down Barriers to Attending College
    THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 2018 Revere will build a new high school By Bridget Turcotte ITEM STAFF REVERE — The state has given the city the green light to build a new high school. A location for the building has not yet been determined. “Optimistically, I’d envision a new high school at a new site,” said Super- intendent Dianne Kelly. “This would enable us to convert the current high school to a central middle school, and then repurpose our current middle schools as elementary schools.” The plan would allow for smaller class sizes, which would have a powerful im- pact on the district’s ability to prepare students for life after high school, said ‘Brotherhood’ breaks down Kelly.
