Family life Free GP care for under 6s? The Parent Files

Mayoral children’s clothing – high quality, versatile pieces, bursting with personality and fun. Available from Muri K Boutique, Dungarvan

By Heather Campbell

The frump factor I’m just guessing here, but unless they’re heading to a PTA meeting, I’m fairly sure that most women don’t look in the mirror and think, “I hope I look like a Mum.” When supermodels are arching their backs and pouting their lips and tossing their hair under the direction of a photographer, you can pretty much bet that they’re not being instructed to “Look as mum-like as you possibly can.” And when designers are stitching up the latest couture, they’re probably not saying, “You know who would look hot in this? MUMS. That’s who.” Mums, we’ve gotten a bad rap. The stereotype of frumpiness weighs heavily upon us. But those who cast judgment are the ones who don’t understand how we could possibly let ourselves go. If our fashion-and-beauty game isn’t as on-point as it used to be, be kind, perhaps it’s because… 1. We’re dirt magnets. Sure, we love the look of a crisp white shirt – but it will take approximately four minutes for it to be encrusted with bogeys or yoghurt or dotted with jam fingerprints. There’s no practicality in anything with “dry clean only” on the label. Or anything light-coloured. Or easily wrinkled. So basically, anything that isn’t leggings. 2. We’re running fools. Which would you rather sprint in: trainers or stilettos? Yeah, that’s what I thought. Mums spend a substantial amount of time dashing after escape-artist toddlers, rushing to the scene of the latest scrape or squabble, and racing to the bus stop with forgotten lunches. In these cases, fashionable footwear can be a hindrance. The last thing we need is a twisted ankle. 3. We’re under-funded. We used to have the expendable income to keep our wardrobes fashionable – and then we had kids. From the moment our children enter the world, it’s like they’re on a mission to divert money directly from our personal clothing allowances and funnel it into their own. 4. We’re in a hurry. Catch a glimpse of a typical Mum morning, and you’ll notice that our efforts are focused on providing our offspring with a (reasonably) nutritious breakfast, an outfit that doesn’t look like they were dressed by Lady Gaga, and a walk/ drive to school that ensures they aren’t (too) late. All this before our brains are even fully awake. We barely have time to put on a bra, let alone get all fancied up.

Great for soothing your little one at home or calming them when out and about, the Gro Hush Baby Soother play s soft white noise. Price: €41.95, from Mum N Me, Tramore Road Business Park, Waterford

AN agreement made by the Irish Medical Organisation (IMO), the HSE and the Department of Health is set to ensure free health care for the under 6s. The provision of free GP care to children under the age of 6 represents the first phase in the provision of free GP care for the entire population. It’s part of the Government Health Reform Programme, Future Health, to create a single tier health service, supported by Universal Health Insurance with universal primary care including GP care - without fees at the point of services. The Minister of State for Primary Care, Alex White, TD, has announced the start of a consultation process on the content and scope of a new GP contract to facilitate extension of GP care free at the point of use to all children under the age of 6. Under the new arrangements, children will be given preventative, wellbeing checks when they are two and five years old. The sides also agreed to include extra fees for children who are asthmatic. This will involve years reviews of the patient.

However, rival group, the National Association of General Practitioners (NAGP) has stated that it is not aware of the details of the new deal on free GP care for under 6s. The group, which has 1,200 members, was not involved in the historic agreement. The NAGP has stated that it believes that the most appropriate method for bringing in universal care is raising the income threshold at which parents qualify for a full medical card. It has also said that the vast majority of its members do not support free GP care to under 6s as the best method of introducing free GP care to all.

The film follows Turing from his teenage years to his wartime work and the trouble he later faced in his private life. Along with his friend and colleague Joan Clarke (Keira Knightly) and the rest of his team at the Government Code and Cypher School in Bletchley Park, Turing races against time to decipher the Nazi’s Enigma machine during World War II. Despite playing a significant role in helping Britain defeat Germany, Turing is later convicted of homosexual acts.

Carrie & Lowell by Sufjan Stevens Carrie & Lowell is the seventh studio album by American musician Sufjan Stevens, released through Asthmatic Kitty. Unlike Stevens’ last studio album, the electronic The Age of Adz, Carrie & Lowell is sparsely instrumental and marks a return to the performer’s indie folk roots. The songs were inspired by the 2012 death of his mother, Carrie, and the family trips they took to Oregon in Stevens’ childhood. The album was released to high critical acclaim, with many critics calling it one of Stevens’ best.

Movie of the week

It’s tough to talk about ‘Furious 7’ and not first address the passing of Paul Walker. An integral part of the franchise, his tragic death left the cast, crew and studio in a state of shock. It’s a huge credit to newbie James Wan and everyone involved that they’ve managed to pull off a not just narratively coherent action flick, but an entertaining one, to boot. They’ve also paid a thoughtful, touching tribute to Walker that will likely leave audiences in multiplexes around the globe sobbing.

Watch Dogs, Ubisoft’s open-world thriller that has been hyped to the moon and back, you play as Aiden Pierce, a hacker in Chicago on the hunt for his niece’s killer. Yes, it’s an open-world thriller. No, that doesn’t mean that its defining feature will be driving over pedestrians as it has been in every Grand Theft Auto-alike since the dawn of... well, Grand Theft Auto. In Ubisoft’s vision of Chicago, the much-vaunted ‘Internet of Things’ is already a reality.

Book of the week

App of the week

Elizabeth is Missing by Emma Healey

Riff (free of Android/ iOS)

Maud finds a note in her pocket which simply states “Elizabeth is missing”. The mystery of how it got there is easily solved – it’s in Maud’s own handwriting. But the reality of what the note means has more consequences... As Maud searches for her missing friend Elizabeth, sometimes the past from more than fifty years ago seems more vivid than the present day. Maud is alone in her search as everyone else attributes her concerns about Elizabeth as the ramblings of an old frail woman...

Facebook’s app game has been known for more misses than hits lately, but Riff is something interesting. Maybe the best way to think of Riff is a messaging service done completely through video. You can make standalone videos or create a chain of videos that you can swipe left and right to look at. If you want to reply, you’re doing it via video. All video all the time. The design is minimal and put together well, but in spots it feels like “minimal” actually means “lacking” in when compared to services like Snapchat. Maybe that’s what updates are for.

Watersports fans: With snorkeling and scuba diving available for all abilities, it is an ideal way to see the best of the island. Sun worshippers: Choose from about 80 sandy beaches.

Artists: Visit the Mucha Museum for art nouveau masterworks from the Czech Republic’s most renowned painter, Alphonse Mucha. Families: See swimming polar bears and walk through spacious animal habitats at the newly renovated Prague Zoo. Couples: Take a romantic sunset stroll across Charles Bridge and along the cobbled lanes of Lesser Town.

PUZZLES

16 April 2015

CROSSWORDS Issues of power and how much independence you can be given may well have surfaced. This week those issues could once again be apparent - whatever your exact birth-date. The difference this time is that you might also need to face cultural differences and, for some, deal with international regulations. Expenditure could be high - at least during the early part of the week. Some of this might be attributable to the need to find a new image. Yet itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perhaps also true that a long-term plan to see someone now far away is uppermost in your mind and that building savings is given priority. You could reach an important juncture with regard to both personal and business relationships. It seems likely that before Friday youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be ready to forge deals or make commitments that this time last year you would not have considered. Important steps might need to be taken later this week. These could focus more on a partnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career and decisions they make that affect you. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite possible too that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be faced with a complex situation. It may be that people from other countries are involved and transport issues to address. It wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be so surprising if you began the week feeling out of sorts - and possibly in some despair that certain people still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to know what it is that they want to do and where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re headed generally. That mood is unlikely to last for long however. Excellent as you may be at multi-tasking, there are certain periods when it seems you enjoy being seen as being torn in two - which could be the case presently. It could be that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s others who exert pressure on you: demanding that you focus on one task or another when actually, you can do both!

Those of your sign â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;doâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; partnerships and this week you may be asked to consider one that would tie you down for at least the next couple of years. You could argue that the timing is poor - but is there ever a good time? You might once again have to give careful thought to home, family and property matters. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not abnormal in both April and September for Scorpios to experience â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;taking stockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; moments. This year the emphasis seems to be on partnerships where there is contractual and financial obligation. It may be that fresh parameters have to be put in place. This is likely to be an important week for business & personal partnerships. It could be someone close who feels compelled to sign on a dotted line and that your role is to offer back-up support. But it could be that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s you who has to agree arrangements that will last for at least the next couple of years. There may well be major decisions to be made: probably involving longrange planning and requiring you to consider how much commitment youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to give and how much power/authority youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy to assume. It might also be that a time-line and strategy needs to be agreed before April 20th. There are times when it seems to others that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really sticking your heels in. Of course this has its upside: determination, persistence and perseverance. The down-side is that you can appear stubborn and intransigent - which is how others might describe you midweek. Just how committed you are to both your place of residence and your working scene could be something you consider carefully this week. It might even surprise you that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking about this. Of course it might not be possible to make immediate changes.

In your %\ (PHU .HOO\ EVEN if you’ve taken good care of your skin, you’ll probably start noticing fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth when you reach your 30s. Dark-skinned women might notice discoloration and uneven skin tone; fair-skinned women might see some hyperpigmentation (brown spots) and ruddiness. Skin becomes thinner and finer, there’s some loss of collagen, and cell turnover has begun to slow down, making your complexion look a little dull. You’ll see an immediate improvement if you exfoliate. You’re getting enough exfoliation if you’re using a retinoid at night. But if you’re not, or if your skin isn’t too

30s

sensitive to handle it, add a cleanser, moisturiser, or night cream with glycolic or salicylic acid. Avoid harsh scrubs. Look for one with synthetic microbeads (indicated on the label), which are gentler than those containing larger, irregularly shaped ones. Here are some tips for you

Cleansing the skin: In the morning, use a cleanser with alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) to encourage exfoliation. In the evening, wash with a creamy cleanser. Moisturise: In addition to SPF 15 or 20 with UVA/UVB protection, your moisturizer should contain antioxidants, like

green or white tea, pomegranate, or vitamin C, which will protect your skin from damaging free radicals. Start wearing an eye cream daily. For dark circles, use one with hydroquinone, vitamin C, or botanicals that brighten, like kojic acid, soy, or licorice; for puffiness, look for one containing caffeine; for extra moisturization, use one with hyaluronic acid. Night treatment: Once you’re in your 30s, a retinoid or retinol isn’t optional anymore. So if you’re not on a prescription retinoid, choose a night cream or serum with retinol. Never forget Every body is beautiful. Emer@waterfordmail.com

Office style spring update IS your office wardrobe looking a little bit tired and in need of an update this spring? Go beyond your staple tailored trousers and collared shirts – why not work this season’s key trends into your office outfits. From ankle-grazing trousers, to crisp white shirts, smart patent flats to leather top handle totes – check out these top workwear buys to overhaul your current wares in time for the impending warmer weather. While keeping up your style credentials on a daily basis isn’t always easy, making subtle adjustments from your weekend wardrobe could do wonders for your working week collections. For example, maybe this season is the time to make the transition into smart flat shoe styles (Gucci’s black leather Horsebit loafers top our wish list) and ditch your killer office heels. Think pretty shades of powder blue, rich burgundy tones and pops of pillar box red to liven up dull shades (or even full-blown colour block looks), as well as statement textures and prints.

FOOD & WINE

Food & drink Sweet and tasty

White: Mureda Blanco Ecologico From Spain, 12% abv

Paulie Pavlova

Being made from Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Verdejo this (Certified Organic) wine certainly has got a lot to offer. It’s citrus fresh and zingy with plenty to offer on the nose and gives a long finish. I’d serve this as a party wine as it should please all tastes and it’s organic too. Price: €9.99 for this Gold star award winning wine.

Bellissimo Head Chef Paul Power shares one of his most popular restaurant recipes for you to try at home. I’m always asked about this recipe so here goes. It’s a recipe I picked up from a chef friend in Sydney, Australia. It’s my favourite and it’s always a winner and such a crowd pleaser... INGREDIENTS • 6 large egg whites • 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartare • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract • 300 grams of caster sugar • 1 tablespoons of cornflour • 2 tablespoons of arrowroot • 1 teaspoon of white vinegar

Red: Shoofly Shiraz From Australia, 14.5% abv

METHOD • Preheat your oven to 200 degrees C (fan oven) • Whisk your egg whites, cream of tartar and vanilla until it becomes very stiff in consistency. Next mix your caster sugar, cornflour and arrowroot together. Slowly add this mix into the egg whites while on a medium to fast speed, Add the vinegar when sugar mix is finished. Your mix should be stiff and glossy. • Line a tray that’s lightly greased with oil. Now make a circular disk from some parchment paper and place onto your tray. Now we are coming to the end, get a stainless steel spoon and spoon your mix onto the parchment and pile it up into a nice round shape - lightly lift the spoon up to spike up the meringue if you like. • Now, very important at this stage to turn the oven down to 110 degrees C (fan oven) before putting the Pavlova into the oven. Place into the centre of the oven and bake for 1 hour 20 mins, take out and leave to cool. • For a topping, I like to add some local strawberries, some lightly cooked rhubarb over some Chantilly vanilla cream, finished off with some crushed pistachios nuts. • • Enjoy, it’s a super recipe and never fails for my friends. The photo is one that’s on my Instagram account from last year. Paul Power, Head Chef, Bellissimo Restaurant, Cedar House, Ardkeen

I’m especially fond of Australian Shiraz but there are a lot of them about. To use a food analogy some will taste like peppered steak and some like a steak with pepper on it. This is one of the latter, the spices, cherry and eucalyptus are subtle on the nose and palate and the finish is just long enough to make you want to fill your glass again and again. Price: €16.99. Wine review by Steve Daly. Both featured wines are available from: Next Door Forum Waterford, The Glen, 051 871133.

Cool approach to dairy farming BALDWIN’S Farmhouse Ice Cream is traditionally made on a family farm near the village of Knockanore. Waterford dairy farmer Thomas Baldwin developed this innovative onfarm enterprise along with his parents John and Maria. He was always looking into the idea of setting up an alternative enterprise on the farm in order to give him greater control over the farm’s income. Income stability is an important consideration in dairy farming at a time when milk prices at the co-op have tumbled. A complementary onfarm enterprise can help in this regard. While touring dairy farms in Holland in 2006, he came across the concept of farmhouse ice cream. This concept allows dairy farmers like

the focal point. Thomas hit the road, approaching local restaurants and shops with a proposition for them to buy a local quality product that is fully natural and is made with the farmer’s own milk and cream. While the work was hard, it began to pay off with a number of local outlets signing up. The brand and business has since gone from strength to strength.

Thomas to combine fresh milk and cream from their dairy herd with other natural ingredients to produce this delicious homemade ice cream. By summer 2007, Baldwin’s Farmhouse Ice Cream was open for business. Building sales was now

Baldwin’s Farmhouse cows are a Holstein/British Friesian cross producing over 6,000 litres of milk per head each year, consisting of 3.35% Protein and 3.80% Fat. Any milk that isn’t used to make ice cream is sent to Glanbia plc, who are a well recognised food ingredients company internationally.

Film review The Longest Ride Rated PG

UB40

Each week Brian Kennedy brings you the best of bands, groups and solo artists that Waterford has to offer. So the eagerly awaited Daytripper Weekend line up has been confirmed. No Stateside acts? Nuts! There goes my dream of a Chicago/ Toto /Foreigner all-American line up; however there’s some serious musical clout heading Suirside way in July. This week I am taking a look at two of the biggest bands, both English, both boasting serious musical chops with almost 80 million records behind them. In UB40, Waterfordians will have a chance to listen to the Birmingham based reggae/ pop band that have 37 years experience and 70 million records to bolster their name. Although a very original group in their own right, the band’s biggest hits have come via cover versions: the Neil Diamond penned ‘Red Red

Wine’ along with Sonny & Cher’s ‘I Got You Babe’ – a duet with Chrissie Hynde and Mr Presley’s ‘I Can’t Help Falling In Love You’’ – the latter two topping the charts Stateside. UB40 in the Butler Community Centre? Remember that! Ah the memories. Thankfully, they will be relived in July. The band still boasts six original members, so it’s the core of UB40 you’ll get on stage on Saturday July 4th. When The Darkness first came on the music scene it gave a bold statement. A Glam Rock outfit, almost a parody of the era that may have looked fake but boasted some hard rocking musicians and the most charismatic of front men in Justin Hawkins. Their Debut album ‘Permission to Land’ sold over 1.3 million in the UK and went platinum in the States. It should have set the band up to carve their own niche permanently in the music industry but after six years The Darkness crashed and burned in 2006. Thankfully the Hawkins brothers have patched up their differences and the second coming of Lowestoft lotharios is more than welcome.

The Legends of American Country Show The Legends of American Country Show is set to become Ireland’s No.1 Country Music Tribute in 2015 featuring the music of eight of the biggest names on the American scene including Garth Brooks, Randy Travis, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Merle Haggard, Alan Jackson, Buck Owens and Johnny Cash. The show will include four well known vocalists in Evan O Donnell, Anthony Mc Brien, Rod and Tracey Mc Auley, who between them have a wealth of experience and glittering careers than span over 30 years. Each singer will perform a string of hits from the featured artist complete with authentic costume change and in the company of a live 5-piece band that will include some of Ireland’s top musicians. To add the finishing touches to what will be a great show there will be a specially designed stage set to create the atmosphere and give the audience that real American Experience. Sunday 19 April 19 at 8pm. Theatre Royal, tickets: €20.

Tale of The Ancient Lights A search for destiny in Asian Legend, the solo light performance awes and stuns, inviting the audience away to another land, in another time. This poignant story is told through skilled movements in a non-narrative show which embodies beauty and poetry, through circus, magic and dance. “An intriguing synthesis of technology and a skilled and imaginative performer. If light and electricity were to take on

anthropomorphic forms; they might look like Asian performer Riuchi’s hands.” Irish Times Friday April 17, 8pm. Theatre Royal, tickets are €10/ €8 concession, with only €5 for a child and a family ticket is €20. Book through the box office on 051 874402 or theatreroyal.ie.

REACH out Delivered by Theatre Royal marketing manager Oren Little, the first REACH session - 5 Essential Tips to Market Your Work Painlessly - will be about how to get the best exposure to the right people for your work. The 5 minute Show & Tell slots will introduce the work of basket maker Cathy Hayden and Waterford in Your Pocket creator Paul Dower as the first network speakers. Cathy Hayden is a basket maker of over 30 years and regularly gives workshops as well as participating in Electric Picnic and other festivals. Waterford In Your Pocket is about promoting Waterford, its heritage, people, culture and events in a lighted-hearted and easy-going manner. Are you an artist, crafts worker, writer or are you working in the heritage sector, and feel a little professionally isolated? Then REACH (Resources & Enterprise in Arts Craft & Heritage) is an opportunity to meet, exchange ideas, resources and information with colleagues in the arts, crafts and heritage areas in Waterford. There is no cost to the join the network – a €2 donation is suggested to cover tea/ coffee/ biscuits. Join them at the next meeting on Tuesday 21 April at 8.15pm to 9.15pm in Waterford Youth Arts, Barrack Street. All are welcome to have a guided tour of the facilities of the venue also. To be kept up to date on all the REACH meetings, email reachwfd@gmail.com.

Fate brought Sophia (Britt Robertson) and Luke (Scott Eastwood) together, and fate is what just might keep them together. Returning from their first date, they happen across Ira (Alan Alda,) an older gentleman in a car crash. The couple saves the wounded man, as well as a box of love letters shared between himself and his deceased wife, Ruth. With an internship waiting in New York and a romance developing right in front of her, Sophia gets some unexpected advice from Ira in the form of his own love story, which plays out through flashbacks spanning several decades. The Longest Ride is a well-told love story that starts a little formulaic but quickly turns into something that’s enjoyable to watch unfold.

The Divergent Series: Insurgent Rated 12 A The war against Jeanine – for real, the enemy’s name is Jeanine – rages on through Insurgent, the second chapter of the moderately engaging but inevitably deteriorating Divergent series. Replacement director Robert Schwentke (Red, Flightplan) surrounds series leads Shailene Woodley and Theo James with awards-pedigreed co-stars, and maintains an energetic, action-heavy pace. But it’s not enough to fully break Insurgent free from the drab, grey tropes of the Young Adult film genre and its dystopian, “chosen one” formula. Author Veronica Roth’s Divergent world, first realised in her bestselling books, is a strange place to visit: a burned-out future society; communities classified and divided into factions; a reluctant savior destined to tear down the barriers and lead survivors into a brave new world.
