Due to popular demand this miracle tea arrived in Ireland this summer, exclusive to Therapie Clinics nationwide. ChĂĄ Yi Tea instantly became the fastest selling weight loss tea in the world, and the response has been no different across Ireland. Clinics have reported waiting list around the country as Therapie have been struggling to meet the demand for tea both in store and online with many customer eager to boost their weight loss using a more holistic approach. Commenting on its unprecedented success, Therapie Clinic MD Phillip McGlade said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The response to ChĂĄ Yi Tea has been fantastic, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ&#x201A;ying off the shelves at Therapie Clinic locations nationwide and we are

struggling to keep up with its demand. The great thing about ChĂĄ Yi Tea is itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100% natural, certiďŹ ed approved and has proven to be effective in losing weight in a short time frame and more importantly in a safe way.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no wonder weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re mad about this tea, according to reports itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been tried and tested by many health conscious celebrities including Jennifer Lopez, Sophia Dahl and Victoria Beckham. ChĂĄ Yi Tea has a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;certiďŹ cate of approval for health food made in Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, stating that the ChĂĄ Yi Tea brand of slimming teas has a proven weight loss effect. It has a number of other beneďŹ ts, apparently; from boosting the metabolic rate and increasing energy levels, to supporting internal organs as you lose weight. The ChĂĄ Yi Tea system is simple; just drink two cups a day. Its premium ingredients are high in natural anti-oxidants

â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already trying to lose weight, drinking ChĂĄ Yi Tea can help you increase your weight loss by as much as 50%. ChĂĄ Yi Tea is far from your average brew- itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full of specially selected herbal ingredients to facilitate what scientists call â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fat oxidationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; - burning the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fat reserves as fuel. ChĂĄ Yi Tea helps your body to get rid of the fat rather than store it, while reducing your bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to absorb fat from your food at the same time. Coupled with a sensible diet and light exercise, ChĂĄ Yi Tea targets the fat stored in your body, doubling the results than you would get from diet and exercise alone. The ingredients hold all of the answers. In addition to premium oolong tea, it includes a blend of traditional herbs and plants to help purify the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cells and support the essential organs through the digestive

process. Among the 100% natural ingredients youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ďŹ nd lotus leaf to optimise digestion and Cassia seeds to support the internal organs. One of the key ingredients is Gynostemma Pentaphyllum (also known as Jiaogulan). It has powerful anti-oxidant properties; helps to regulate the digestive

system and helps to cleanse the body, leaving you with brighter eyes and skin. ChĂĄ Yi is available from Therapie Clinic Waterford. Call 051 870 910 or visit www.therapieclinic.com to avail of the October 3 for 2 offer on ChĂĄ Yi Weight Loss Tea.

The ability to communicate clearing and coherently is something most of us in our day-to-day lives take for granted. Not so the many, many who suffer from a severe stammer or stutter. As young people such sufferers are often bullied and made fun of, as adults they can find themelves often ignored because he just takes too long to communicate, to get the words out. In short for such sufferers, silence is sometimes the better option. In October 2007 the first National Stammering Awareness Day was held in Ireland. The NSAD coincides each year with the International Stammering/Stuttering Awareness Day. The idea behind the NSAD is to bring people together to discuss stammering, to offer people who are challenged by it an opportunity to interact with organisations and professionals who support the stammering community in Ireland. The NSAD is a window of opportunity for organisations and professionals to promote what they have to offer the stammering/

stuttering community: it is also an ideal opportunity for all age groups to realise that they are not alone with their stammering, that there is no longer a need to suffer in silence. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Stammering Awareness Day will take place in the Juryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lnn Custom House in Dublin on Saturday October 18. Once again it is being kindly sponsored by Speak Soon Communications. The Irish Stammering Association and the Irish McGuire Programme also provide financial support to the event. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We speak with one voice!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; is this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme. There will be a range of speakers throughout the day including people who stutter and professionals who work in the field including speech and language therapists.The day will also feature a breakout session for parents and an ISAYiT! drama group for young people who stutter facilitated by the Gaiety School of Acting.The day starts at 10 a.m. and runs until 4.30 p.m. Admission is free; refreshments will be served. For the official NSAD website go to www.nsad.ie

CROSSWORDS The first letter of each answer is written next to its clue in alphabetical order. One letter has already been entered. Can you find the words then fit them correctly into the grid?

It may be time to put your observer’s hat on. Note how you’re attracting original thinkers into your world. Note too how certain people dress and how some definitely complement your style. It’s said that we are all just power and energy sources. It seems that these waves vary. When you want to use it, you have an extraordinary ability to turn things around and to direct traffic so that everyone gains. A combination of charm and expertise is at the root of this - plus your natural talent for staying grounded and ensuring practicalities are dealt with. By the end of this week you’re likely to be more in tune with yourself than you have been. True, that might also be because you realise you’ve come to the end of the road as regards a working partnership. It may be that you’ve given this all the energy that you can. You know that thing you do when you’re upset: that withdrawal into your shell? There’s a possibility you might want to do just that toward the weekend - but perhaps not for ‘negative’ reasons’. Fact is that it seems you’re on the threshold of a breakthrough (assuming you haven’t already crossed over). Perhaps you recall that since October 2012 Saturn has been moving through another of the Fixed signs and across the base of your solar chart? On several occasions, this, the very back-bone of this chart has been illuminated with both property and family matters demanding significant attention. By Thursday the Moon will be in your sign and it’s at this point that you may feel better able to voice disquiet at plans. It’s not that you’re being unnecessarily critical but rather more that you need to be clear as to what is planned, a time-frame and how it can best be managed.

Think back to August last year and the connections you made then. Which of these require attention? It’s very likely that an investment (probably of time) might now require a little cash too. If there’s an issue here it’s perhaps that a close colleague or partner doesn’t share your aim. On Saturday, Saturn, still moving through your sign, opposes the Sun. You experienced this transit last year too. This represents something of a cosmic ‘full stop’ moment when any matters not finished to satisfaction come back for those final touches. It might help to think back to last August and September and what you and a colleague were planning. It may be time for review. True, you might simply end up discussing holiday dates. It’s as likely that your joint research and development ideas will push forward. It may not be possible to work from home but it certainly seems that there is home-work to do. Ensuring you have adequate working space set aside could be a driving force this week. Actually, this might well build on plans made late last summer and which you’ve never quite got around to implementing. It might help to think back a few months - perhaps to before the November solar eclipse. Though you may have consciously been reviewing every step you’ve taken since then, this week could provide the first opportunity to make real and lasting amendments. There are some signs who attract drama - and it seems you’re one of them. Perhaps that’s why those of your sign are viewed as chameleons - readily changing direction and style to accommodate conditions. It seems you might spend an increasing amount of time in your ‘dressing-room’ this week.

Self Assessment Tax Deadline Landlords and Self Employed: Understanding your 31st October deadline and how to minimise your Income Tax liability

e’ve heard the ads on TV and radio that give us that wee shudder letting us know it’s that time of year again. Pay and File! Pay and File! Pay and File by October 31 or face the consequences. Face the interest and penalties for failure to Pay and File. You’d be forgiven for wondering what you’ve done wrong exactly to warrant such penal warnings. So what does the October 31 mean? Any individual that has income other than their employment income taxed through the PAYE system, must ‘self assess’ for Income Tax on their earnings. This includes landlords and the self -employed. For these individuals, October 31 each year is the most important date of the year, from a tax point of view! The October 31 is the deadline by which they must:

1. File an Income Tax Return for the previous year of assessment ie. October 31 next, an Income Tax return must be submitted in relation to 2013. This return (generally a Form 11 or 12), details all your sources of income and claims all your allowances and credits. 2. Pay the balance of Income Tax for the previous year of assessment ie 2013. 3. Pay Preliminary Tax for the current year of assessment ie 2014. This can get a ittle confusing but the general rule is that your 2014 Preliminary Tax should be 90% of the expected 2014 liability (you’re hazarding an educated guess), or 100% of your 2013 Income Tax liability. It is in effect a deposit you pay to Revenue towards this years tax liability. That’s it! It’s not rocket science. This is what you are paying your accountant to do for you. S/he will most likely also supply you with a set of Financial Accounts also. It is

in your best interest to have your Income Tax return submitted as early in the year as possible, then that way you know your tax liability and can plan accordingly. Leaving it until the last minute can put pressure on yourself particular if your liability has risen more than you might have thought. How can I reduce the Income Tax I must pay October 31? Cashflow is the single biggest problem facing businesses. Obviously any reduction in the tax you pay will be of great benefit to you. Remember, your 2014 Preliminary Tax can be based on your 2013 liability so if you can reduce your 2013 tax bill, you save on the double by also reducing your 2014 Preliminary tax. You pay income tax on your business profits, not the wage you drew from the business. The lesser the profit, the lesser your tax liability. You or your accountant can only

calculate your profits on your upto-date books and records, so make sure you have recorded all your income and expenses correctly for the year. Pensions, aside from taking the decision to plan for your future and the risk of a fall in value as has happened recently, or the potential to gain in value if you consider assets to be at their rockbottom. From a tax point of view putting further money into a pension fund is most beneficial if you are paying tax at the marginal rate of tax, ie. 41%. eg. €5,000 lump sum pension contribution will save you €2,050 tax in 2013 but will also reduce your Preliminary tax requirement for 2014, by €2,050, a total of €4,100. Whereas a standard rate taxpayer (20%) only saves €1,000 on their 2013 bill and another €1,000 on their 2014 Preliminary Tax. So you need to weigh up the pros and cons of putting the money away, the

tax you’ll save, providing for your retirement and the risk attached. With Tax Credits, everyone is different so we cannot go through each credit but the most common credits unclaimed are rent, health expenses, and tuition fees. For anyone who started a new business since October 2013, they may be entitled to a start-up business tax relief. With the October 31 deadline approaching for landlords and selfemployed to submit Income Tax Returns and Preliminary Tax, the time could not be better to get in touch with TaxRelief.ie.

Event of the week Verdi’s Macbeth (The Odeon, Saturday, October 11, 6pm) Saturday week, sees Verdi’s Macbeth live from the New York Met being broadcast in high deﬁnition simultaniously at numerous venues throughout the country. In Waterford the performance will be screened at The Odeon. The opening opera of the Met’s 2014-2015 season stars soprano Anna Netrebko in Verdi’s masterful adaptation of

Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy. When a coven of witches addresses Macbeth as King of Scotland, his wife urges him on to murderous ambition, a course that ends in his downfall. Verdi’s retake translates the ferocity of the original play into a music masterpiece of relentless, gripping power. Further details from www. classicalartsireland.com

TV of the week Rwanda’s Untold Story, BBC 2, October 1, 9pm It lasted 100 days. On the morning of April 7, 1994 the majority Hutu people of Rwanda stopped work but they did not down tools. Instead, they took up their machetes and began the systematic slaughter of the minority Tutsi. They were cut down where they stood: babies ﬂung against walls, pregnant girls’ bellies ripped open, old and inﬁrm left writhing in agony to die slowly. Even the churches proved a hope-

less sanctuary in the genocide of 800,000 Tutsis (ﬁve of every six people) and moderate Hutus those who in any way opposed the work in the killingﬁelds. It was all over in 100 days. “Man can get used to killing, if he kills on and on. He can even become a beast without noticing it,” said Elie. The world said: it must never happen again. No doubt, the people of Darfur in the Sudan, in DRC, in Syria and Iraq think differently.

Album of the week Oasis – What’s the Story Morning Glory? (Big Brother, Reissue) Back then there was no two ways about it you were either an Oasis fan or a Blur fan, you could not be both. This, though, at the end of the day is perhaps the defining album of the 1990s. Leaving behind the angst teen spirit of their debut, Definitely Maybe, this batch of melodic, reflective and softer songs took the Gallagher Brothers’ glorious Britpop to the great uninitated, captured the emerging optimism after the downturn of the ‘80s and delivered future singalong classics. Making more than nodding reference to The Beatles, and naff title apart, these lads were not just mouthing off about being the world’s biggest band, they actually believed they were. Glorious stuff. As for Blur, well ...

LOOK WHO’S TALKIN’ THIS WEEK Yeah, good one Bono... The party’s still probably not over... Leaving Venice on Monday morning, Bono, one of the chosen many at George Clooney’s nuptual shindig with the very lovely and very clever Amal Alamuddin, told showbiz hacks, “Wedding? What wedding? I was at a bar mitzvah”. And then the smart-ass added, “The party was great. It’s still

Film of the week The Equalizer (15, nationwide) I was never a camp follower of Brit TV’s Callan but I had heaps of time for Edward Woodward in the US TV hit, The Equalizer. He was the deﬁnitive protector of the hapless victim and underdog and always, but always, got his man and the look on the villain’s face was well worth the 60 minutes wait. Now, Woodward, a consumate actor, is no more with us but the big screen is giving the full

treatment to the cult TV show, swapping Denzel Washington for the late British actor as the derring-do vigilante who never charges for his elite services. Washington is just short of 60 but he looks lean and ﬁt and pulls it off with great aplomb, proving you’re never too old to give chase and clobber a much younger hoodlum or two. Good, old action stuff for the boys at heart.

going on ... in some people’s minds.” And, as for the ceremony itself he quipped, “It was very emotional and lovely.” Which doesn’t explain why the man who would save the world didn’t make a better effort in rigging himself out with a little more sartorial splendour to mark the happy occasion. Money can’t buy class, I guess...

App of the Week Instagram Hyperlapse (IOS, free update) Instagram Hyperlapse (IOS, free update): Instagram has just released an update to its Hyperlapse app which will let you create timelapse videos using your front-facing camera. You don’t need an account to create a hyperlapse. Instead, you open up straight to the camera.The feature works by adding a small icon next to the record button. However,

you won’t be able to switch cameras in the middle of a recording so you will have to decide beforehand whether or not you want to use the ‘selﬁelapse’ mode. The app features built-in stabalization technology. Hyperlapse was released in August, offering an easy way to create moving timelapses. The resulting videos have a very p r o - fessional-looking feel.

Book of the Week Norman Mailer: A Double Life by J Michael Lennon (Simon & Schuster €14.99) Mailer was a proliﬁc novelist, essayist and journalist. His ﬁrst novel, The Naked And The Dead, was published in 1948 when Mailer was just 25. From then until his death in 2007 he turned out numerous novels, biographies, dramas and journalism, gave 700 interviews and wrote 45,000 letters. He won two Pulitzer prizes and was nominated for a Nobel. And if that were not enough to suffice his

appetite, he had six wives, eight children and countless mistresses and showed more than a passing interest in Marilyn Monroe. He was also, and I didn’t know this, co-founder of The Village Voice in New York’s Greenwich. Lennon’s biography is the ﬁfth to date but what sets it apart is that, as official biographer, the writer worked alongside Mailer for more than 20 years.

DVD of the week The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (Sony,Blu-ray, DVD)

Game of the Week Eternal Fury (IOS, free) This is a turn-based RPG game perfectly combined with SLG genre. Playing as an avatar of Prometheus on your iPhone of iPad, you will ﬁght against the demons and rule your own castle. As you improve your castle and city, you will hire soldiers to strengthen your territory, ﬁnish quests, par-

ticipate in GVG battles and so much more. You will find yourself in an awesome world, dive into this complex story and fight to the finish. If you are a fan of SLG games or an enthusiast of RPG, you will love this exciting combination that Eternal Fury brings to your gaming world.

$ 1(: (5$ ,1 7227+&$5( $55,9(6 ,1 ,5(/$1' World-leading dental treatment at incredibly low prices! A dramatically new dental practice has been launched that provides some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most advanced aesthetic and cosmetic dental treatments. And you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to travel to central or southern Europe for its huge benefits. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now available in the state-of-thedental-art Carlow Dental Centre in Graiguecullen. The Centre has been established by two of the best dentists in Hungary â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itself acknowledged as a worldleading country in that field. Between them, Dr. William Hayfron and Dr. Krisztian Sallai have two decades of highly successful experience treating patients from around the world. Having responded to the need from Irish patients, Doctors Hayfron and Sallai had opened a practice in Ireland. In doing so, they will enable people with dental problems to achieve major savings while relieving them of the stress and time-consumption of travelling abroad.

Making your smile wider than your wallet The clinic claims three major qualities: Cost, Confidence and Convenience. Cost meaning low prices. Confidence that comes from being treated by highly qualified dental practitioners experienced in crowns, bridges... and in restoring smiles which adds so much to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self-confidence. Convenience is in the surgeryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accessible location and its opening hours at weekends. Then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the speed of service delivery. Even the most complex dental restoration can be achieved within two weeks (subject to no inflammation or the absolute need for extractions). Not least, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a dedication to minimising discomfort and pain. Indeed, the majority of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patients say they feel hardly any pain during and after their treatment. Equally satisfying is the minimum pain to the bank balance.

Cost Comparisons: â&#x20AC;˘ A porcelain crown generally costs â&#x201A;Ź700-900 per tooth.

+RUQV Moving past familyfriendly tales of witches and warlocks, Daniel Radcliffe embraces his inner demon for Horns, a horror-fantasy about revenge and the warped forms love can take. Based on the wickedly entertaining novel by Joe Hill, Horns centers on Ig Perrish (Radcliffe), a young man reeling from the horrendous murder of his ﬁrst and only love Merrin Williams (Juno Temple). Making matters worse, he’s the prime suspect, which has turned the whole of his small town against him. But more than anything--even clearing his name--Ig wants to rain hell down on whoever raped and killed his beloved. When a pair of horns sprouts up on his head, giving him insight into people’s innermost thoughts, Ig turns detective, judge, and demon.

7KH WZR IDFHV RI -DQXDU\ He’s penned the adapted screenplays for period romances like The Wings of the Dove and The Four Feathers, as well as the blood-splattered love story Drive. Now, admired screenwriter Hossein Amini adds director to his credentials with The Two Faces of January, a thriller that starts strong, but ﬁnishes sloppy. Like The Talented Mr. Ripley and Strangers on a Train before it, The Two Faces of January is adapted from a Patricia Highsmith novel. Even without knowing this, you might sense it, as the story involves the fateful meeting of strangers, jealously, blackmail and of course, murder. Oscar Isaac stars as Rydal, an educated and street-smart American who’s hiding from life by playing tour guide to gullible tourists in 1962 Athens. There, he crosses paths with Chester and Collette MacFarland (Viggo Mortensen and Kirsten Dunst), two American tourists with class, apparent wealth, and a secret. Intrigued by each other, the trio hits the town on a night that ends with bloodshed and tenuous trust. From there, the MacFarlands must depend on this shifty stranger to get them out of Athens without

being arrested, and Rydal must watch his back. Playing close to the Alfred Hitchcock playbook, Hossein Amini managed to make 2/3 of a great suspense movie. There’s nothing terribly original in its execution, but it’s engaging and even sexy. Frankly, I wish he’d left it there at the hour mark, where it would have been shockingly short-but at least thoroughly excit-

ing. Instead, The Two Faces of January barrels through a fourth act, where secrets are shouted, action is slapped on, and all the good will earned is lost. It’s a real shame. I’d actually recommend you watch The Two Faces of January for a satisfying thrill ride, but with the caveat you shut it off at the hour mark.

Hill’s novel crackled with a depraved sense of humor and trashy love of carnage. As the director behind such grisly horror offerings as High Tension and Piranha 3D, Alexandre Aja seems a perfect pick for this adaptation. In the second act, he brings some welcome and warped levity to this grim tale by letting Ig loose on some minor characters that deserve some damnation. With a sneering smile, Ig turns a pack of barking reporters on each other, inciting a battle that’s not far from Anchorman’s newsman war. And like that bonkers battle, this one is a sick thrill to watch. Then, Ig inspires the worst in barﬂies who’d happily hang him, and so marches out of this dive like a badass with ﬂames bursting behind him for an exhilarating visual.

Yet the script from Keith Bunin implements some changes that defang Ig, and for better and worse try to make this murder tale a mystery. The final battle of the film is less Ig versus Merrin’s killer, and more the story’s irreverent and pitch-black sense of humor against the filmmaker’s earnestness to forge ahead with the convoluted plot. Fans of horror and of Radcliffe will have some reason to celebrate, and Horns delivers some soaring moments for both. The book’s readers will be less lucky. As for me, I’m left wondering why Aja couldn’t have had more fun with this demon’s tale. He’s made a movie that is twisted and entertaining. But with these pieces, it could have been so much more. More daring. More mucked up. More fun.

Could you forgive your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s killer? Talking the talk with Paul Hopkins

hen I met the man who tried to kill me, it was a very extraordinary encounter. But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel I forgave him. That was not my wish.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; These are the words Albie Sachs spoke a couple of years back when I interviewed him on one of his visits to Ireland to speak on the nature of peace and reconciliation. Sachs, one of the highest judges in the Constitutional Court of the new South Africa, played a huge role in that countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Peace and Reconciliation Forum, the idea of which has been mooted a few times in the new Northern Ireland. Albie Sachs is retired now and lives a contemplative life with his second wife and young son near Cape Town. During the apartheid Years, the Lithuanian immigrant was a member of the revolutionary ANC and was living in exile in Mozambique when agents of BOSS, the then South Africa secret service, crossed the border into the capital Maputo and placed a bomb under his car. He lost an arm and an eye in the blast. His remarks about forgiveness crossed my mind when Helen Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Driscoll said at the weekend she forgave her eldest son Jonathan (21) who stabbed to death his younger twin brothers Patrick and Thomas, both aged nine, and then hanged himself. The Charleville mother told UTV: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I forgive him. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give a hoot what the whole world says about my son. I know the boy I reared.â&#x20AC;? In the

midst of unimagineable grief it was a magnanimous gesture. As we await the sentencing of Oscar Pistorius, Barry Steenkamp, the father of Reeva, last week reiterated these incredible words: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We ask the Lord HYHU\ GD\ WR KHOS XV Âż QG D UHDVRQ ZK\ WKLV VKRXOG happen to Reeva. There is no hatred in our hearts.â&#x20AC;? The father of the South African model shot dead by Pistorius said he held no hatred in his heart form the athlete. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He (Pistorius) must be going through things that we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about. There is no hatred in our hearts,â&#x20AC;? he said. What a strong man: to be able to forgive the man guilty of slaying his beautiful daughter in a very cold and clinical manner. Four bullets. A young life gone forever. Yet, Barry Steenkamp holds no hatred in his heart. Not so long ago, the father of Jamie Bulger, the Liverpool toddler murdered 20 years ago by two 10yearolds, said he could not forgive his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Partnership is perfect way to make business better

Talking Business with Sarah Bolger

THE ability to build and maintain relationships in business has always been a key element associated with success. The ability to not only gain a supplier, customer or even an employee but to retain them. To incorporate these key people into your core business values to see the importance DQG EHQHÂż WV RI \RXU UHODWLRQ ships and to build on them. To not only ask what can they do for me, but to ask what do they need or want and how my business can excel in providing this.

killers. Ralph Bulger described the lifelong pain he and his family had experienced since his twoyearold son was abducted, tortured and murdered by Robert Thompson and Jon Venables. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always there. It always comes back. I still feel the same, but I think you just learn to live with it a bit, just live with the pain,â&#x20AC;? he told the BBC. I wonder who Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be with, Barry Steenkamp or Ralph Bolger? What kind of man could I be? How about you? I suspect most of you can identify with me when I say if anyone harmfully touched a hair on any of my three children, I would be the avenging angel. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;eye for an eyeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of the Old Testament. Every day there is talk of addressing the past before we can really walk on in Northern Ireland.

With a business world full of margins and bottom lines, a relationship or partnership based on respect and a sense of community with the promotion of key and credible partnerships allows fora partnership to add value other than monetary gains. This slows down the urgency or need to change supplier based on one factor, margins. One supplier may supply a hardware store with wooden beams at a reasonable price but charge for delivery. Whereas another supplier may charge a slightly higher price which incorporates the delivery cost but stating free delivery, along with a sales agent dedicated to WKHP WR RUGHU HIÂż FLHQWO\ The simple allocation of a sales agent relieves the pain of completing an order form when they order similar amounts each month. The hardware store is happy with this service and will naturally share their experience with others. They are also happy to be associated with a brand and company that builds and values their relationships. This allows the supplier

to advertise that they supply the hardware store, building credibility of their business and service offering. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a win win! On approaching a company who you may view as a potential good partnership or relationship, ask yourself what my business can do for them, what EHQHÂż W WKH\ ZLOO DFKLHYH IURP being associated with my business.

to be looked at is beyond doubt but it begs the question: can one forget and move on if one cannot forgive? The playwright Eugene Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neill said it best in Long Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Journey into Night: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The past is the present, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the future too.â&#x20AC;? He was referring to a family struggling with alcoholism but the underlying truth is that past wounds, from any source, can infect our present. My friend the psychologist agrees. If you were hurt by someone, you may carry a grudge or be so wounded that you are psychologically ready to be hurt again, he argued over dinner last Wednesday night. I honestly donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, I said, as I let him pick up the tab. After the bomb blast in Maputo, Albie Sachs in hospital received a note from a comradeinarms that read: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry, comrade Albie, we will avenge you.â&#x20AC;? He was dismayed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What does he mean? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to cut off the arms and blind in one eye the people who did this?â&#x20AC;? Soon after the attack, Sachs heard that a man had been apprehended over the bomb plot and, for WKH Âż UVW WLPH WKH FRQFHSW RI ZKDW KH WHUPV ÂľVRIW vengeanceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; came to him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said to myself, if heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SXW RQ WULDO DQG WKH HYLGHQFH LV LQVXIÂż FLHQW DQG KH is acquitted, that would be my soft vengeance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; living under the rule of law. And if we get freedom and democracy, that will be my soft vengeance.â&#x20AC;? Albie Sachs got his wish. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole achievement of our wonderful new democratic constitution is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;soft vengeanceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. It totally smites the horror, the division, the hatreds, the separations of apartheid but it does so in a way that is benign and creative and humanising,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a far more profound vengeance than doing to them what they did to us.â&#x20AC;?

Craft beer (politics and survival) column by Jim Flash Gordon Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;M not really a political man, I grew up in Waterford, worked hard, and have seen Waterford city in good and bad times. I employ 27 staff between Revolution and Oskars, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no mean feat in the current economy, but the cost of doing business in the city that I love, can be crippling. As well as rates, water charges, licence fees, VAT, PRSI, IMRO (a charge for playing music),PPI, (another charge for playing music)...and more.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be afraid to follow up with a telephone call YOUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;VE spent weeks perfecting your CV, an awesome SHUVRQDO SURÂż OH DQG D FRYHU letter that screams â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hire me I am the perfect candidate for this jobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. You send in your application but hear nothing back, what do you do? Should you just sit back and patiently await an answer or should you be pro- active and contact the company? The question is â&#x20AC;&#x153;When is it appropriate to follow up with an employer on my submission and how do I do it?â&#x20AC;? There is no correct answer to this and it will be up to you to use your judgement but generally I would advise contacting the employer to Âż QG RXW ZKDW LV JRLQJ RQ At best you might secure an interview at worst it will be a slightly uncomfortable phone call but you will have nothing to lose and at least you will know where you stand and can move on to the next job application knowing you tried your best. There are a few simple rules that you can follow when faced with this situation. Use the one-two week rule.

Follow up one to two weeks after you have submitted your CV. This is generally the amount of time that most employers take to review all the applications and contact candidates of interest for an interview. Make contact during the early morning, this will give you the best chance of speaking to the person you are looking for before they are bogged down in their work for the day. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just ask if they have received your application. This is a waste of an invaluable opportunity to introduce yourself to the employer and to make an impression. Instead use this chance to distinguish yourself and to build rapport with the employer. First identify the appropriate contact person, the HR Manager, CEO or Hiring Manager and call them so you can discuss and highlight your suitability for the role. This is your chance to impress them with your knowledge and insight into the job they are

offering. Use this opportunity to also demonstrate that you have researched the company and are familiar with their ethos and any on-going strategies they may be involved in. Always do this by asking pertinent questions relating to public information on the company and tie it in with any similar experience you may have. Following up is an opportunity to bring your candidacy to the top. By doing this you can save yourself weeks of anguish wondering whether your application has been received or is being considered. The majority of employers will appreciate your tenacity and it will only serve to further improve your chances of success.

potential of new initiatives inspiring rural growth, such as the Wild Atlantic Way. I am asking you to write to Minister Noonan and Minister Howlin to call for a reversal to last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s penal excise increase for the sake the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tourist industry, for the sake of small business owners and entrepreneurs, and for the sake of hard-pressed Irish consumers. A reduction in excise would be a great way to support Irish consumers and tourists, while also stimulating an employment rich industry to grow. This is a tax we simply cannot afford.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on the menu? CAJUN CHICKEN FILLET WITH SOY SAUCE STIRFRY IF it seems that I focus a lot on recipes that are quick and relatively easy to prepare itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only a reflection on our increasingly demanding and busy lives.As long as the food we eat is nutritious and tasty it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be complicated to prepare. In fact some of the best food we eat requires the least interference. After a hectic working day last week I made up a delicious supper from a limited fridge and cupboard that turned out very nice indeed so try this for simplicity on a plate.

Ashley Thompson of Thompsons CarryOut Offlicence, Ferrybank, Waterford would pair The Granaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cajun Chicken Fillet with Soy Sauce Stir Fry, with a tasty German IPA, Maiselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and friends - Stefanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s IPA. He writes: Beer is a special pleasure, which is traditionally made solely from the four basic ingredients of water, hops, malt and yeast; as defined in the Reinheitsgebot (German Beer Purity Law) of 1516. The complexity of its production offers a multitude of flavours and its fascinating diversity is appreciated by beer connoisseurs throughout the world Maisel & Friends emphasizes the im-

Garlic cloves 2 A generous head of broccoli Mushrooms 10 Carrots 2 Celery 2 stalks Oil for frying Cajun seasoning to coat 4 chicken fillets. Light soy sauce. Cajun cooking originated in Louisiana with French settlers. Some brands of Cajun seasoning can be very spicey so choose carefully. Prepare your vegetables for stir frying . Place a small amount of cooking oil in a wok and add

the vegetables when the oil is hot.Season sparingly with salt and pepper as the big flavour in this dish comes from the Cajun spices. Toss the veg around the wok until cooked and finish off with a splash of soy sauce. Meanwhile place enough Cajun seasoning on a plate and coat each chicken fillet generously on both sides. Fry for about two minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Serve on top of a bed of the Stirfry vegetables. You can also serve this dish with rice. *The Granary CafĂŠ is on Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connell Street, Waterford

And what to drink with it.... portance of beer with new, creative, and innovative interpretations of tradional beers, inviting you on a journey of discovery throughout the world of beer. Brewed with friends, enjoyed with friends - Maisel & Friends relies not only on their own awardwinning taste, but actively seeks inspiration from new friends with different backgrounds with a single underlying principle: the love of beer. Stefanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Indian Ale is an interpretation of a traditional India Pale Ale, with a pleasant dose of bitterness and a fresh, fruity taste. Inspiring and exotic. Surprises with citrus notes and

floral nuances and finishes with hints of wild honey and caramelised malt The spice of the Cajun chicken would balance well with the spice and zest of the beer and the malty backbone of the beer would blend superbly with the sweetness of the soy. Stefanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s India Ale comes in a classy 75cl bottle, so is perfect as a sharing-meal beer , and is 7.3% ABV. Maisel & Friends are available in Thompsons CarryOut Offlicence , Ferrybank, Waterford. Check out our Facebook Ferrybank Beer Club for more tasting notes and beer facts. Cheers .

A Heart Healthy Diet is Easy! Lower your cholesterol naturally with ZerocholÂŽ Plant Sterol Tablets! Plant sterols have been proven to lower LDL cholesterol. 80% of Irish men and women over 45 suffer from high cholesterol, the most common major risk factor associated with developing heart disease in Ireland. Worryingly, just over 60% of those with high cholesterol seek treatment. Cholesterol is a type of fat found in the blood used to produce important hormones, maintain healthy cells and synthesize Vitamin D in the body. However, increasing levels of cholesterol in our blood can lead to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and the possible hardening of the arteries. Top tips to lower cholesterol and improve heart health. 1. Switch to healthier fats: you should reduce foods high in saturated fat and cholesterol. Include foods such as avocado, olive oil, coconut oil, oily fish (salmon, sardines, and mackerel), nuts (walnuts, almonds, brazil nuts) and mixed seeds. 2. Introduce plant sterols as they help to block the â&#x20AC;&#x153;badâ&#x20AC;? cholesterol being absorbed, thereby reducing the risk of coronary heart disease. ZerocholÂŽ is an easy way to get the required 2g plant sterols daily. Taken just once a day with your main meal,

6. 7.

ZerocholÂŽ can be taken long-term alongside other medications. Increase fibrous foods â&#x20AC;&#x201C; High fibre foods can help lower cholesterol levels in the blood. Food sources: wholegrain breads, pastas, quinoa, beans, lentils and oats. Eat a rainbow of fruits and vegetables: they provide a multitude of antioxidants and phytochemicals, which have been shown to maintain a healthy heart and reduce blood pressure. Red and purple foods are particularly beneficial to the heart so choose foods such as tomatoes, blueberries, purple grapes, figs, raspberries, strawberries, cherries and red apples. 5. Take Omega-3 fish oil daily â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it has been shown to lower triglycerides, balance cholesterol, regulate heart rate and make blood platelets less sticky, overall improving heart health considerably. Eskimo-3 is a natural, stable fish oil which contains 1600mg omega-3 in every teaspoon. Exercise to lose weight â&#x20AC;&#x201C; If overweight, weight loss can achieve up to 8% cholesterol reduction Quit smoking as it is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Visit www.quit.ie for more information.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;As I see it, every day you do one of two things: build health or produce disease in yourself.â&#x20AC;? Adelle Davis Drop into Full of Beans for more information.

6WRS FDULQJ ZKDW RWKHUV WKLQN" By Trish Hayden FOLLOWING on from last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s article about the mysterious and glamorous Callan woman who practices yoga at the bus stop, it teaches us another point. One of the hardest lessons to learn in yoga is not the breathing, the balancing, the poses, the Sanskrit terms, or even how to do a handstand. It is trying not to compare yourself to others or worry what other people think of you. In a yoga class three things happen. No. 1, you look at someone else in a pose and wonder how they can do it and how youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never be good enough. No. 2, you look at someone else in a pose and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help feeling a little smug. Your hips are much more ï¬&#x201A;exible than theirs. No 3, a constant neurotic swing between the above. Yoga brings balance The truth is, our bodies are a unique and imperfect vehicle that is made up of not just the misalignment of when we are born, but all the little accidents and incidents along the way.

us the individuals that we are. Yogaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job is to bring these into somewhat of a balance, allowing us to move with a little more freedom. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a happy coincidence of nature and events that someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hips are more ï¬&#x201A;exible than yours. By accident Should we admire someone for something that is theirs by accident? But what you can admire is the person who has put in the hours, gently coaxing their bodies into a more comfortable existence. They may not have the biggest forward fold but they do

Maybe you twisted your ankle which left it weak, which meant that you are less inclined to put weight on your leg which has caused your hip to raise a little,

which in turn caused your right shoulder to raise, and your head to tilt slightly to the side. Imagine all these little incidents throughout your life, the heavy

school bag you carried for years, you could drive yourself crazy thinking of all the permutations. But really these are just the random little quirks that make

move with a sense of grace and comfort. So next time you fall over in class in a balancing pose, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be embarrassed, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry what people will think. Have a laugh. The top yoga teachers in the world all fell over when they started, why shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you?
