Record Demand in Waterford for ChĂĄ Yi Miracle Weight Loss Tea A 400 year old traditional Chinese recipe has made international headlines recently and the revolutionary blend of herbs and tea, called ChĂĄ Yi Tea, has become a global phenomenon credited with fast, effective weight loss. Celebrity fans reportedly include Jennifer Lopez; Sophia Dahl and Victoria Beckham, who quietly sipped this ancient blend to help them stay trim in a healthy way – but nothing stays secret for long and news rapidly spread of this natural miracle weight loss solution.

t eden there is a very exciting halloween weekend planned. With great giveaways on both Friday and Saturday night. We have our fancy dress ball taking place on Saturdaynight with €1,000 cash prize to be given away for best dressed €500 voucher for second prize and lots of other exciting giveaways on the night. Like and share eden venue on Facebook to be entered in to a draw for other great prizes. Eden is a new exciting bar and music venue in waterford

located on manner street. With its contemporary design of shabby chic it offers a real alternative and up to date venue for waterford city. While the decor is modelled on some bars the directors are involved with in Dublin it is fresh and interesting. At a glance you can see Declan o Regans style running through the design. Declan is originally a native of waterford who went on with his brother Hugh o Regan to own and run the Thomas reed group of pubs which included 38 of Ireland’s best known bars.

Declan still owns and runs several pubs in Dublin, Hogans, The secret Bar, Kelly’s, le gulueton, Pygmalion, and Dury Street Buildings to name but a few. Eden s new individual styling and exceptional smoking area gives the people of waterford a real alternative destination with a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for all tastes. Why not drop in over this coming Halloween weekend and try this tempting alternative and maybe even win €1,000 cash on the night.

No More Reading Glasses with Revolutionary Eye Treatment Medical advances mean that glasses are no longer the only solution for reading vision. Optilase has been at the forefront of this revolutionary advancement and performed thousands of successful procedures. TV Presenter and Fashion Stylist Celia Holman Lee recently had laser eye surgery with Presbia and achieved better than 20/20 vision. Celia told us “After the treatment it was a complete new world, I can now see up close, far away in the distance and everything in between. It has completely changed my life”

As we get older, we lose our near vision. If you find yourself holding this paper at arm’s length to read this article, then you will understand. Reading menus and texting are equally tricky, even more so if you are unlucky enough to have forgotten your reading glasses! The technical term for this loss of crispness of our near vision, as we get older is “presbyopia”. It’s a natural process that happens to everyone, usually from their mid-40s, even if you have previously had laser vision correction. It’s simply part of the ageing process! Traditionally, most people with presbyopia use reading glasses to improve their near vision but as we know, with reading glasses come numerous vision and lifestyle constraints. This is the unique benefit of this revolutionary new treatment. With Presbia Vision comes freedom, convenience and self-sufficiency, no more dependency on reading glasses.

Is Presbia right for me? People suitable for the Presbia procedure are usually over 40 years old and are found to need reading glasses to view newspapers, mobile phone displays and similar items which would otherwise appear blurred. In other words anyone suffering from the age related condition of presbyopia. The loss of your near vision doesn’t have to be the end of your on-the-go, mobile lifestyle. Not when the Presbia inlay has the power to help millions of people around the world and possibly even you. If you’re frustrated with trying to keep track of glasses, using contact lenses or stretching your

Call 1890 301 302

The treatment is entirely painless and takes, on average, less than 10 minutes. Presbia is a tiny prescriptive lens, which is customised to your vision. Your near vision capability can be improved to see near, far and in between resulting in a greatly-lessened dependency or zero reliance on reading glasses, depending on the individual.

Mr Wayne Crewe Brown, Surgeon and Medical Director with his team at Optilase arms past their limit, the Presbia inlay offers the hassle-free convenience you desire. Regardless of when or how your eyesight changed, the Presbia inlay may be able to restore your near and intermediate vision – even if you are considering or already had LASIK or cataract surgery. Dr Wayne Crewe Brown, Surgeon and Medical Director at Optilase commented: “Presbia has been in development for over a decade and means life-changing benefits for those who are dependent on reading glasses. It restores vision of objects near the eye and reduces dependency on reading glasses, critically without compromising on distance vision. The result is long-lasting, clear vision; near, far and in between.

Money saving tips IF you’re savvy enough, eating at your favourite restaurant doesn’t have to end with a jawdropping bill.

Nearly everyone enjoys eating out. What’s not to like about a meal you don’t have to cook or clean up after you’re done

eating? But a restaurant meal can easily cost €20 per person, or even more if you enjoy a glass of wine or beer with your meal.

Competition in the restaurant industry as well as daily deal sites provides an opportunity to enjoy the same meal for less money, giving you the chance

to go out more often without taking a huge hit in the wallet. But not all deals are equal, so it is important to be a savvy shopper. A coupon can provide a good discount, but in some instances it may not offer as great a savings as the daily special or the regular value menu. Here are 12 ways you can save when you dine out at your favorite restaurants: Drink water – the free kind. Restaurant beverages, both soft drinks and alcohol, FDQ VLJQL¿ FDQWO\ ERRVW WKH FRVW of your meal. Tap water is a cheaper choice. Take advantage of daily specials - Many restaurants offer specials, especially during the week. Find out when your favourite restaurants offer deals, and pick those days to eat out. Don’t leave home without searching for vouchers - Before you go out, check the restaurant’s website or Facebook page. Look for happy hour food specials. Many restaurant offer special prices on food if you dine early or late. Others offer half-price appetizers along with drink specials. When you

for local dining out arrive, make sure you clarify with the staff whether you need to sit in the bar to take advantage of those deals. Order appetizers as a meal - Fill up on a hearty breakfast and order lunch from the ‘starter’ or ‘sides’. Many restaurants serve up generous portions of appetizers and salads. These easily can be eaten as a main course, so don’t be afraid to choose from the ‘starters’ menu if you see something you like. These items are usually priced much lower than entrees. Add a small house salad to make a complete meal. Check out the daily deals sites – New restaurants often offer deals through grabone.ie and similar daily deal services. These come with restrictions, including minimum purchase requirements. Some deals are better than others, so before you buy, make sure the FHUWLÂż FDWH ZLOO UHDOO\ VDYH \RX money.

others offer a standard senior discount. If you don’t see a senior discount on the menu, ask if there is one.

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?

Mercury is now direct, the solar eclipse was just a few days ago and a tangible sense that time is speeding up should be apparent. From feeling that so much can never be realised, you may be pleasantly surprised (at least in the first half of the week) to find that others are ‘ on the same page’. The effect of Mercury’s direct movement and the recent solar eclipse in your opposite sign seems indicative of a change of pace in working relations and, most probably, a fresh approach to partnership generally. This could be driven by financial considerations. Now that Mercury is no longer retrograde and is moving quickly through an area of your solar chart associated with ‘research and development’, it’s arguably time to trial some of the ideas incubated since the September (9th) Full Moon. This week should show marked improvement to last. Plans and schedules that have been much discussed could now be put into practice. With the assistance of friends (and relatives) born under other Cardinal signs (Aries, Libra and Capricorn), motivation should be increased. It won’t be so surprising if this proves to be a week of negotiations and contracts. What’s been much discussed since the September Full Moon could now take firm shape. You may find that neighbours and colleagues are more conciliatory than you’ve found them to be thus far. With Mercury no longer retrograde and Mars’ move into Capricorn, this week’s energy system promises to be very different to last. If you are seeking the accolade of ‘diligent and hard-working’, your actions over the course of the coming week could show those you seek to impress that you really are up to a task.

If you’ve been prevaricating (yes, you!), then this week, as Mercury moves forward in your sign, you could amaze others by making several decisions without fuss and with apparent ease (which might prompt some to wonder why you didn’t take this action weeks ago!). Venus begins her annual journey through your sign and the accent turns to partnerships and those who shares your dreams. You may be ready to talk about worries that have escalated in recent weeks. Given that Mercury has been retrograde in Libra, it’s quite possible that you’ve been distressed. The accent is on team-building and ensuring that those who have a task assigned to them know exactly what that task is. That in itself will surely be time-consuming. There’s also the strong possibility of preparing for an adventure scheduled for the start of next month. With Mercury’s station at the apex of your solar chart on Sunday, it’s probable that commercial interests will be uppermost. Buying and selling could be a big theme. Though all those born under your sign can’t be currency traders, it’s likely that many Capricorns will need to think about moving cash. To some it might seem that you’re going back on your word when it might be more true to say that you’re simply re-iterating what you said a year ago. When you didn’t get through then, no doubt you’ve tried to get the message in other ways. It appears though that the message hasn’t been understood. It’s entirely possible that a key meeting will take place before the end of the month. There may be much for you to negotiate. Whereas under some circumstances you have a tendency to bury your head in the sand, that’s unlikely to be true on this occasion.

Buzz of the week Amal Clooney’s wedding dress While you can’t have George Clooney, girls, (sigh) you can now have new wife Amal’s stunning wedding dress. So, if you can’t be Mrs Clooney (sigh again) at least you can look as good as her, which is sort of the same thing, no? Oscar De La Renta who died earlier this month had revealed there is an Amal-

inspired dress in the Bridal Autumn 2015 Collection and it’s almost (small sigh) identical to the dress Amal wore at the Venice nuptials last month. It might be missing Amal’s incredible train but it’s a pretty close interpretation of the custom-made creation You read it here first – go for it girls!

TV of the week The Apprentice (Tuesday BBC1 9pm) Don’t you just love it all, the histrionics and hilarity and those cocky would-be entrepreneurs pitted up against Lord Sugar who’s not all sweetness and light. The Eastender has an innate knack of being able to put down some of the pompous pinheads with one svelt swipe of his acerbic tongue. This season, the 10th believe it or not, kicked off the other with the onerous task

of having to sell all the goods used in the opening Apprentice tasks during the past 10 years – in just 24 hours. Let’s see how they fare as they move on and survive Sugar’s sarcasm and cynicism and better judgement in the next few weeks. Tough call in these tough times. All this and that other Eastend lot too, as the net closes in on Lucy Beale’s killer...

Album of the week Our Love, by Caribou (City Slang) In the four years since Caribou’s debut and defining album, Swim, it seems most likely that Dan Snaith has spent every waking moment delving into, in some guise or other, aspects of the ecstatic such is the swish, sudden rush of Our Love. Having effectively written the same song for a decade or so, Snaith’s journey from indie electronica to wide-screen psyche rave pop has been a quiet but effective one: he has perfected his pitch for bite-size psychedelia – plump synths and Jessy Lanza’s voice and blissed-out rave-ups. All hallmarks of his dance-floor alias Daphni. For one who doesn’t indulge in imbibing, he sounds drunk on serotonin. This rave soothsayer’s euphoric fifth tears up the dance floor. Oh, what a night... hands in the air everyone.

Gadget of the week Nexus 6 (coming soon) The design of the next Nexus makes a lot of sense as it is said to feature a 5.9 screen, bigger than both the iPhone 6 (and even the iPhone 6 Plus which is out in America but not in Europe until the spring) and the Galaxy Note 4. The Motorola-built device also looks like a much-bigger Moto X. It also has flat, Android

Film of the week Fury, (15A, nationwide) Fury aka Murderous Macklemore’s Last Stand, took the top spot with $23.5 million when it opened in the US box office last weekend, which seems kinda low for a movie about Brad Pitt killing Nazis with tanks. But that is apparently enough to make it “one of the best openings

of all time for a World War II war movie”. The Sony production’s opening was a career best for director David Ayer Gone Girl) and about bog-standard for pretty boy Brad. You could criticise Fury for a lot of things (more of which anon) but “not graphic enough” isn’t one of them...

L-style icons and a very thin bezel. This is information coming from now semi-retired gadget-leaker Evan Blass but we will reserve judgement until the real thing comes our way pretty soon. Any one remember the old black Bakelite phone that stood on a table in the hallway? Any one... Hello...??

Social Media of the week

New study on teenage angst A new study says that social media can actually make you feel bad about yourself. Well, who’d have thought it??? Research at the University of Michigan (where else but the US of A ) shows that the more young people check out their Facebook status and so forth, the worst they feel about themselves. Should we really be giv-

ing any attention to this stuff? But, hey wait, another study, this one by Germans, found that a third of people feel worse after spending time on FB, especially if that time is spent viewing holiday photos. Enough, enough. FB users (and some researchers) really need to get out more... take up a hobby, play marbles or conkers or...

App of the Week Cycling Log (IOS, €0.89) Cycling has increased hugely in popularity the last couple years as, when out and about at the weekend in particular, you will have noticed the legions clad from head to toe in their bright cycling gear taking to the roads on their super-lightweight highend bikes. It’s the new past-time for young and old alike. If you are one of the more determined, keen to use your bike as a professional form of exercise,

then this app is right up your street. It keeps track of your workouts as well as recovery days. Logging your ride could not be easier or any faster as it is all done with a simple touch on a calendar day to record the duration of your ride and other relevant data. It’s all done in a very visual manner, which makes the app all the more appealing and user-friendly. New to the road or a seasoned cyclist, check this out.

Book of the Week Full On, by Ivan Yates (Hachette Ireland €23.99) The perfect title because it really is a full-on, no-holds-barred book which covers his life from a young farmer taking over the family fort when his father became ill then on to politics where, impressed by Garret FitzGerald, he became a TD at the ripe old age of 21. He rose up through the ranks rapidly and became Minister for Agriculture under John Bruton. It was a dream job

but turned into a nightmare during the BSE crisis of the mid-1990s. He eventually quit politics in 2002 to develop his own bookmaking business. But he overstretched himself, borrowing heavily from the AIB and following the global fallout Yates declared himself bankrupt. A compelling and candid story, written by someone who has been there, done that, and worn the T-shirt.

The 100, Season 1 (DVD & Blu-ray)

Game of the Week Atom Run (IOS, €2.69) This combines two gameplay elements into one platform, the difficulty of Super Meat Boy with the great platforming action of long-time old favourites Super Mario Bros. Its true power lies in the gameplay. You only have three buttons:, one for running left, one for running right and one for jumping. The response time is pretty much unrivalled

by any other IOS platform game we have come across and, on top of that, developer Fingerlab has truly mastered the art of level design. The goal is to find secrets, collect coins, and to finish each level as fast as you can. Can be used across all IOS devices. All of which makes for a fantastic gaming experience. Now, get cracking and go win ...

you get the drift. It’s basically two parallel stories, following those onboard The Ark, burdened with making momentous decisions regarding the fate of mankind, against the story of convicted juvenile delinquents forcibly sent down to Earth to discover if it’s liveable again. As opposed to this, there’s always the movie of Mrs Brown’s Boys which has just hit DVD.

DEE E KAVANAGH

One of the more notably underrated series from HBO and the like, the first season of which is now out on disc. It’s the story of a future where the last remnants of humankind – following a nuclear holocaust a century before – live onboard a space station called, appropriately, The Ark. The show delves into many of the big questions about right and wrong, good and bad;

2XLMD It’s fair to say that when plans were announced to turn the Hasbro board game Oujia into a horror movie, a collective sigh rose up from the internet at large. However, as a girl who well knows the power this cardboard and plastic contraption holds at slumber parties-thanks to its promise of a link to worlds beyond our own--I had a cautious optimism that this board game movie would get it right. For the first 10 minutes of Universal Pictures’ Ouija, it does. Then the opening title card hits, and everything goes to hell. The screenplay by Juliet Snowden and Stiles White follows a group of six friends whose lives are shattered when one of their rank unexpectedly kills herself. Desperately wanting the answer to why, they use the spirit board found in her room. Soon, they are tormented by the very spirit that led to their friend’s bitter end. It’s not a bad premise, but White-who also directs--executed it

atrociously. Ouija commits a wide variety of horror movie sins. First off, its group of friends is perfunctory. They are a collection of teens pretty enough to star on a WB series, but barely distinctive as archetypes, let alone characters in their own right. You have the best friend with the big sad eyes (Olivia Cooke), the boyfriend (Daren Kagasoff), the other boyfriend (Douglas Smith), the waitress one (Bianca A. Santos), and the younger sister (Ana Coto) who we know is “bad” because she has skulls on all her junior wear! These characters are so underdeveloped that it’s impossible to feel invested when their lives are threatened by a ghost that they initially believe is the dearly departed Debbie (Shelley Hennig). They believe this because they are absolute idiots. When the board spells “Hi friend,” Debbie’s bestie Laine regards this as proof of ID, as if “friend” was their special pet name for each other

instead of a painfully generic greeting. From here, these characters being threadbare takes a back seat to them being literally too dumb to live. This slumber party setting is so rich with possibility. Here the joy of being scared is coupled with the pressure to fit in, and the shadows could hide and kind of horror just steps away. But White and Snowden’s script bolts from this setting, and leaps to teen girls, pretty and seemingly perfect. Yet something haunts Debbie, who won’t let Laine come in to visit. She’s burning her battered old Ouija board, and seems spooked about it. No one’s home with her, and yet she’s not alone. There was so much promise in this opening that climaxes in Debbie’s grisly demise. But then White and Snowden chucked all this momentum in favor of a lackluster teen scream pic. I believe a satisfyingly scary movie could be made from a Ouija board’s inspiration. But this one isn’t it.

-RKQ :LFN John Wick deserves 84 stars – one for every anonymous thug Keanu Reeves murders with a brain-splattering head shot. Not that I counted each kill in John Wick. Co-directors David Leitch and Chad Stahelski shared that number during a Q-and-A at Austin’s annual genre gathering, Fantastic Fest, and I’m in no position to argue with their gratuitous tally. John Wick actually killed 15 additional men in the time it took me to write that opening paragraph. The movie, itself, actually earns 3-and-a-half stars for being a proudly pulpy piece of genre filmmaking that bites off a little more than it can chew in its final minutes but still crams thrills and kills into a slick, dark, neo-noir-ish package. John Wick is the type of movie Nicholas Cage thinks he’s making, every time. Only Cage routinely strikes out while swinging for these fences, and Wick connects on a bases-clearing triple. The character of John Wick (Keanu Reeves, subdued) can best be described as a beehive at midnight. Dormant. Docile. Harmless, but potentially dangerous. In other words, John Wick isn’t necessarily a problem unless he’s poked – which is what happens when arrogant Eastern European gang-

ster Iosef Tarasov (Alfie Allen) takes a liking to Wick’s prized muscle car, a near-flawless 1969 Mustang. Together with a gaggle of oily henchmen, Iosef breaks into Wick’s home in the dead of night, stealing his car and – wait for it – killing the adorable puppy John’s late wife, Helen, left him. The previously hollow hero in mourning now has a reason to live. He has an entire army of Tarasov’s goons to exterminate. For the most part, though, John Wick makes small decisions that help set it apart from disposable entries in the hitman genre. Leith and Stahelski engineer the film so that we instantly sympathize and root for John Wick on his ridiculously thin mission. Though John Wick is unapologetically violent, it isn’t mean. Things

get vicious as John stares down insurmountable odds, but the movie finds giddy ways to help our damaged hero overcome numerous obstacles. There’s an odd dichotomy to John Wick, though. We learn very little about Reeves’ mourning character, and even less about the men he’s eliminating. John Wick is a badass, stylish piece of genre filmmaking, but it’s also a kick-ass 65-minute story banging around in a 96-minute package. Go see it. You’ll recognize the exact moment where the movie should have ended… but doesn’t. Speaking of, this review is now finished. But John’s kill count has reached triple digits, and continues to climb.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE LOAF CAKE

SOME chocolate cakes should come with a health warning but not this one. The addition of fresh oranges to this cake take away that weighed down feeling. Store this cake in an airtight container for up to five days for a delicious mid morning treat. INGREDIENTS 150 grms butter, plus some for greasing 2 tablespoons of golden syrup

NOW that Halloween is upon us, the evenings are falling early and dark and mischievous , The Granary’s Chocolate Orange Loaf Cake , sounds so mischievous in itself ! An immediate and personal favourite, would be a cheeky little Porter from Wychwood Brewery, Black Wych. Ashley from Thompson’s CarryOut Offlicence, Ferrybank, Waterford writes: The word witch owes its origin to the Anglo-Saxon word ‘ Wicca’ which itself has been derived from the word ‘wicce ‘ , which means ‘wise ‘. The word ‘witch’ also means to ‘ twist or bend ‘, which is another phrase for a psychic ability , psychogenesis or telekinesis. It is believed that the origin of the word ‘witch ‘ dates back many thousands of years, when people widely worshipped Mother Earth or Nature as goddesses. They also revered women as they were considered the creators of new life. During the witch trials of early modern Europe, many practitioners of folk magic did not see themselves as witches, but as healers or seers, and were convicted of witchcraft. Many ‘witches’ convicted of consorting with demons, seem to have been cunning

175grms dark sugar 150grms plain flour 1/2 teaspoon bread soda 25grms Cocoa powder 2 eggs Zest of 2 oranges and juice of one 1x 2lb loaf tin.

Preheat the oven to 170c and line the loaf tin with baking parchment Beat the butter with the golden syrup and the sugar. Combine the flour,bread

soda and cocoa powder and beat into the mixture. Now beat in the two eggs.Now beat in the Orange zest and the juice. The mix may look as if it is curdled but don’t panic. Pour into the loaf tin and bake for 45 minutes. The cake should be light but still slightly moist in the middle. Leave to cool on a wire rack. The Granary CafÊ is on O’Connell Street, Waterford

folk whose fairy familiars had been demonised, and over half the accused witches in Hungary seem to have been healers. Some of the healers and diviners historically accused of witchcraft have considered themselves mediators between the mundane and spiritual worlds, roughly equivalent to shamans. Such people described their contacts with fairies, spirits, or the dead, often involving out-of-body experiences and traveling through the realms of an ‘otherworld’. Beliefs of this nature are implied in the folklore of much of Europe, and were explicitly described by accused witches in central and southern Europe. Repeated themes include participation in processions of the dead or large feasts, often presided over by a female divinity who teaches magic and gives prophecies; and participation in battles against evil spirits, ‘vampires’, or ‘witches’ to win fertility and prosperity for the community !! Chocolate and Orange are so fitting together, and more so when enjoyed with a toasty smooth Stout or Porter. Wychwoods Black Wych Porter, is in itself spellbinding ! Once again the Black Wych has cast her spell.

Start with a measure of alluringly rich dark malt and allow the bitterness to creep in. Watch out for the caramel sweetness lurking behind. This silky smooth 5% ABV. Porter is no taboo, and she is a spellbinding force to be reckoned with. If Porter is not to your taste, come down the ladder and try a couple of Red Ales from Wychwood Brewery that are so fitting for the time that’s in it , Hobgoblin or ‘King Goblin . Hobgoblin is traditionally craft brewed Ruby Beer with chocolate and crystal malts and a blend of Styrian, Goldings and Fuggles hops to produce a full-bodied, Ruby beer that delivers a delicious chocolate toffee malt flavour, balanced with a rounded moderate bitterness and an overall fruity, mischievous character. The 5.2 % ABV. King Goblin is brewed only on a Full Lunar Moon ! As the full moon casts its eerie light over the shadowy old Wych Wood, a magical brew gurgles forth. A beer enlivened by the energies of the universe, when the elements are converging into a harmonious alignment. Happy Halloween everyone . Cheers .
