Chinese attack Irish Talent!

Our website www.IrishTalent.ie has been under attack from cyber pirates located in China resulting in a warning page popping up on the Chrome and Firefox browsers for the last two weeks.
We are delighted to announce that due to the very hard work of David Quaid and the gang at PrimaryPosition we are now malware free.
Luckily no damage was done and our website is safe once again.
No ransom was demanded so we have put it down to cyber vandals simply trying to create havoc. This is unfortunate as we are providing a free service to Irish people in the entertainment world, many of whom are unemployed and searching for work.
Ah well, lesson learned and defences have now been increased.
Roll on Irish Talent!

Big raspberry to the recession!

www.IrishTalent.ie has blown a big raspberry in the face of the recession and made ALL subscriptions to the entertainment artists directory FREE!
While other sites are still charging actors, singers, models etc to advertise their profiles to casting directors etc Irish Talent is now giving away their subscription for nothing, nada, zilch!
Times are hard enough out there without people trying to make money out of other people's unemployment problems so the crew at Irish Talent have banned any talk of payment!
So now there's no excuse whatsoever for not signing up and letting the world know about your talent.
(Now, anyone got a loan of a fiver for my lunch?)

My parents don't understand me!

RTE on the lookout for troubled teens.
If your family would be interested in participating in a future series of Teens in the Wild then RTE would like to hear from you.

PARENTS: Is your teenager rebelling, being defiant, and becoming unmanageable? Most teenagers go through a difficult period. It's part of becoming independent, but what can you do when they no longer listen to you, or when they get involved in anti social behaviour?

TEENAGERS: Do you feel your parents don't understand you? Are you tired of getting into trouble at home or in school? If you don't want things to be like this but don't know how to make change in your life then, with your parents' permission, RTE would like to hear from you.

Clinical Psychologist David Coleman & RTÉ are looking to bring away a group of 6 teenagers (MALE OR FEMALE, 15-16 years of age) on an activities and therapy course.

This unique and challenging experience hopes to assist teenagers in acquiring the skills needed to make some positive change in their lives. While the teenagers are away from home, their parents, with David's help, will get a chance to discover what possible reasons may lie at the root of their children's behaviour, and how to deal with this.

If you want David's help to make change possible in your family then this could be the chance for you.
