  Broadcast at 6 a.m. and midnight on RTÉ Radio 1, the Sea Area Forecast has come to occupy an almost sacrosanct place in the day for many. Its familiar (though often incomprehensible) language acts as a wake-up alarm for a proportion of the population and sends another swathe of them to bed at the end of the day.
  Yet few people truly understand its unique language and the significance of the romantic sounding headlands whose locations are central to revealing the incoming weather. From Mizen Head to Malin, Valentia to Loop Head, Carlingford Lough to Hook Head, rising or falling slowly, backing south-east to north-east or veering south-to-south-west – what does it all mean?
  Here, meteorologist Joanna Donnelly goes on a journey around Ireland's Sea Area Forecast. Visiting the places that are a familiar part of the daily broadcast and explaining the history, language and science associated with it, From Malin Head to Mizen Head fans our endless fascination with the weather while sweeping us away on a journey around Ireland's most remote headlands.

  Explore freedom, power, and the biggest challenges of the twenty-first century with two extraordinary thinkersTwo world-renowned figures of contemporary politics come together to debate alternatives for the future: José "Pepe" Mujica, former President of Uruguay and an ex-guerrilla who acquired an international following for his message of sustainability and common sense, and Noam Chomsky, who revolutionized linguistics and has become a beacon for radical thinking around the world. From the meeting of these peerless figures emerge reflections on the major global issues of our time: climate change, corruption, populism, the crisis of capitalism, and the logic of the market economy, among many others. Speaking especially to younger generations who inherited an unstable world, Chomsky and Mujica emphasize the values required to survive the challenges of the twenty-first century and to build a new world: democracy, freedom, humility, and friendship. Brought together by Mexican activist Saúl Alvídrez, Chomsky and Mujica offer a wise and passionate guide to salvaging the future.

  Splanchnology is the branch of anatomy that focuses on the study of visceral organs, which include the digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems. These organs are primarily located within the thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities, playing crucial roles in sustaining life. Understanding splanchnology is essential for medical professionals, as it provides foundational knowledge for diagnosing and treating various diseases affecting the body's internal organs. 
  The term "splanchnology" originates from the Greek word splanchnon, meaning "viscera" or "entrails." Historically, the study of visceral organs has been a key aspect of medical science, with ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians and Greeks making significant contributions to anatomical knowledge. The field has evolved considerably with advances in medical imaging, surgical techniques, and molecular biology, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of organ function and pathology. 
  Visceral organs are classified based on their primary functions. The digestive system, comprising the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas, is responsible for processing and absorbing nutrients. The respiratory system, including the lungs and airways, facilitates gas exchange, supplying oxygen to the body while removing carbon dioxide. The urinary system, with the kidneys, bladder, and associated structures, is essential for waste excretion and fluid balance. The reproductive system, differing between males and females, ensures the continuation of life through reproduction. Each of these organ systems works in concert with others, maintaining homeostasis and overall health.
