Jokes According to the Alaskan Department of Fish and game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid December. Female reindeer retain their antlers 'till after they give birth in the spring.

Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen had to be a girl.

We should've known! Only women would be able to drag a fat man in a

red velvet suit all around the world in one night, and NOT GET LOST.

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl was mesmerized by the whole spectacle.

Finally, she leaned over and whispered to her mother, "Why is the bride dressed in white?"

"Because white is the colour of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life," her mother explained, trying to keep it simple.

The youngster thought about this for a while.

"So then, why," she finally asked her mother after putting the pieces together, "is the groom wearing black?"

A new business was opening, and one of the owner's friends wanted to send him flowers for the occasion.

They arrived at the new business site, and the owner read the card, which said, "Rest in Peace."

The owner was angry and called the florist to complain.

After he told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist replied, "Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should imagine this: Somewhere there is a funeral taking place, and they have flowers

with a note saying, 'Congratulations on your new location.'"

What does a dyslexic, agnostic, insomniac spend most of his time doing?

Staying up all night wondering if there really is a dog.

A Roman walks into a bar, holds up two fingers, and says, "Five beers, please."

The Mall, Thurles Co. Tipperary

10 Reasons To Shop Locally & Support Independent Retailers 1. Local Economic Stimulus.

When you purchase at locally owned businesses rather than nationally owned, more money is kept in the community because locally-owned businesses often purchase from other local businesses and service providers . Purchasing local helps grow other businesses.

2. Non Profits Receive Greater Support.

Local business owners donate more to local charities than non-local owners.

3. Unique Businesses Create Character & Prosperity

The Local Multiplier Effect How money spent locally benefits the local area 80% of money stays locally Enters 100 80 64 51 51 33 Total: 500

Remains 80 64 51 41 33 —

20% of money stays locally Enters 100 20 4 1

Remains 20 4 1 —

Total: 125

The starting point in each situation is that €100 enters the local economy.

If 80% of each €100 spent stays in the local economy, the total amount of of spending that that €100 will generate is about €500 a multiplier of 5 (500 divided by 100).

If only 20% of each €100 spent stays in the local economy, the total spending is only €125. This gives a multiplier of 1.25 (125 divided by 100)

The unique character of your local community is defined in large part by the business that reside there, and that plays a big factor in your overall satisfaction with where you live and the value of your home and property.

4. Environmental Impact Is Reduced.

Small local business usually set up shop in the town/village centre, providing a centralized variety that is much friendlier to a community's walk score than out of town shopping malls. This generally means contributing less to sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and pollution.

5. Most New Jobs Are Provided By Local Businesses.

Small local businesses are the largest employers nationally. Plus the more jobs you have in your local community the less people are going to have

to commute which means more time and less traffic and pollution.

6. Customer Service Is Better.

Local businesses often hire people with more specific product expertise for better customer service. You are also going to see these people around town and they are less likely to be rude because they have to face you day after day.

7. Local Business Owners Invest In Community.

Local businesses are owned by people who live in the community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community's welfare and future.

8. Public Benefits Far Outweigh Public Costs.

Local businesses require comparatively little infrastructure and more efficiently utilize public services relative to chain stores.

9. Competition And Diversity Leads To More Consumer Choices.

A marketplace of thousands of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long-term.

10. You Matter More We talk a lot about exerting influence with your purchasing choices, or "voting with your wallet." It's a fact that business respond to their customers but your values and desires are much more influential to your local community business than the large chain stores.

Relay for Life exceeds €100,000 again well as supporting research to find cures and better treatments for those with the disease, are a significant contribution to the fight against cancer.

Finally, she said that the venue and dates for next year’s Relay for Life Tipperary would be announced in due course, and hoped that those who participated in past years would continue to do so in the future.

Speaking on behalf of the Relay Committee, Padraig Moran thanked all the teams who took part for their efforts and commitment and also for their spirit and ingenuity. He said that without the teams there would be no Relay for Life, adding that their contribution was much greater than the money they raised. Both he and Jerry Cronin, Committee Chairman, thanked Toomevara people in general and the GAA club in particular, for embracing Relay so completely during the past three years, and for giving it such total support. In conclusion, Jerry added that Relay for Life Tipperary had really just begun and will now spread its wings and go ahead from strength to strength in various venues throughout the county. Keep an eye out for the announcement of the venue for next year’s Relay.

Quote “If you're going to try, go all the way.

Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision.

It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it,

Relay for Life Tipperary, held in Toomevara at the end of August has exceeded the €100k mark for the third year in a row. At the official cheque handover held last Friday evening in the Tipperary Inn, Toomevara, the final amount from this year’s Relay was announced as €104,306-29. Receiving the cheque on behalf of the Irish Cancer Society, Kathleen O Meara, Director of Advocacy with the society, thanked all who contributed to such a remarkable outcome, adding that the Tipperary Relay is one of the most successful and well organised in the country and has contributed €359,000 to the fight against cancer in the past three years. She complimented the committee for their work during the past three years, adding “you are the happiest hardworking committee I have ever met”. Pointing out that the Irish Cancer Society is not a state funded organisation, she said that funds from Relay were used to provide a range of services to cancer sufferers in Co Tipperary, including cancer information services, the night nursing service, daffodil centres the financial support programme to those suffering from cancer, the survivors supporting survivors programme and the advocacy service.

What others say about ‘The Rub’ Hi Dorrie, My husband was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and had to come off the medication due to a reaction. He has been using the rub and is delighted with the result. His pain has almost completely gone and it is very easy to apply with no side effects. Its a fantastic natural product and he is delighted to have found something that helps his condition.

Mary Wall, Limerick I hope other players find The Rub as good as my son found it. I am going

to try it on more players who have persistent injuries. Thank you Dorrie.

Michael, Coach, Cork Dear Mrs Killeen — Thank you for your letter and herbal remedy, which was passed on to me by Sir Alex.

Thanks for your interest in Manchester United and Roy in particular.

Roy is now back to full fitness with no pain. I will keep your remedy for the future.

Counselling Anxiety

(continued from previous issue)

By Jim O’Shea Series 4, no. 16. Anxiety. Deep breathing, negative thinking and desensitisation Deep breathing is one of the basic and best ways to ease and manage anxiety (and panic attacks). It takes about 3 weeks to learn how to deep breathe. It means breathing through the stomach (abdomen) rather than through the chest. When this is mastered and you breathe through your stomach your shoulders will not move, but your belly and stomach will expand and contract as you breathe. It is advisable not to spend more than 2 minutes at a time deep breathing, because you take in more oxygen this way, and can become dizzy if you do too much of it at a time. Therefore, it is best to spend a short time 5 or 6 times a day doing it.

There are several ways to learn how to deep breathe. The classical way is to sit straight in a chair, put your hand on your stomach and as you breathe in your stomach will expand, and as you breathe out your stomach will contract. Having breathed in, you hold your breath for a second or two before breathing out. Some recommend putting a book on your stomach, and using your stomach to push it out. This can be difficult in the first few days, but as you practise you will notice your stomach extending more as time goes by. Long ago, I learned to deep breathe in a rather unusual, but effective way. I spent some time in the Jesuit order, and we learned deep breathing to help us when giving sermons. The method was to go down on all fours and pant like a dog! There was no great effort in this, because you have to deep breathe when in that posture.

It might look strange, but it works, and eventually deep breathing becomes habitual.

While deep or abdominal breathing in itself is a big help in easing anxious feelings, it can be used to relax the entire body. If you refer back to an earlier article, you will see how I incorporated deep breathing into the visualisation of the wise being. Our breath is like our spirit. Feel it gently coursing through your body. It will also help you to empty your mind and quieten your thoughts. This prevents rumination, one of the roots of depression and anxiety. Another technique is to pick a ‘relaxing’ word such as ‘peace’, ‘gentle’ and so on and repeat it as you relax each part of your body.

Since anxiety may come from distorted, negative or illogical thinking, training ourselves to think positively is the best possible way forward.

This is not as difficult as one might think, although pessimistic thoughts are deep rooted, and a pessimistic thought has a greater impact than a positive one. Therefore, anxious people must constantly practise positive thinking until a new pathway is laid down in the brain. In practise, this means substituting positive thoughts for negative ones. For example, the phone rings, and the anxious person immediately thinks ‘bad news’. Constantly replacing this with the thinking ‘good news’ will help to reconfigure our negative wiring of the brain. This will take some time to achieve.

Since extreme anxiety means that a person has become acutely sensitised, one of the most common procedures is to desensitise the sufferer, by gradually exposing him to the anxiety-provoking situation. Desensitisation is a technique of cognitive behavioural therapy, and involves becoming familiar with the situation that arouses the anxiety. It means steeling yourself to feel the disagreeable and severe sensations and gradually getting used to them, all the time slowly extending the limits of exposure to the fear arousing event or place. This requires courage. Who wants to experience the painful sensations associated with anxiety?
