LEGAL MATTERS CORNER MIRIAM MC GILLICUDDY ANSWERS YOUR LEGAL QUERIES

Tom had booked a luxury holiday to a four star hotel in Lake Garda, Italy while there it lost the tip of one of his fingers on the defective catching mechanism on a sun lounger at the hotel swimming pool.

What can he do in relation to the injury he suffered and the ruined holiday?

Once he has booked this as a package holiday (which is any holiday where transport, accommodation or other travel/tourist services are booked together from the one provider) the package holiday tour operator with whom he booked may be liable in negligence for any injuries suffered or for up to twice the cost of the holiday back for a defective holiday if no injury had been suffered but the holiday had been a disaster. This allows a tourist to sue in country of origin rather than chasing the hotel in the Italian jurisdiction making it easier to get redress. In relation to local conditions where the accident occurred this may be a factor as the defenders of the claim will be making all sorts of allegations that Tom contributed to the accident. Another novel argument in relation to foreign climates is that standards are lower therefore there is no breach in the standard of care or the contract. However a four star hotel in Lake Garda would have high standards in line with the European Union in relation to the accommodation/food/transport. However one would not expect the same standards in the middle of Antartica.

Having said all that the package holidays legislation is a huge help for people who either suffer injury on holidays or just have a bad holiday to get a remedy where they have booked with a tour operator. New legislation coming in down the line will also extend this to many people who book a number of elements of their holiday online themselves at or around the same time.

Law Quip: Unhelpful Advice given to foreign tourist going abroad for the first time – “It is customary on entering an underground train to shake the hand of every passenger”.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN TRALEE...

‘IT IS SIMPLE, NOT ALWAYS EASY’

This is the philosophy of Louise Hay, an internationally acclaimed lecturer, teacher and author of over 27 books on self-healing.

Are you ready for change and willing to explore patterns and behaviours that may have been blocking you from true growth? This course will facilitate you in helping to change these patterns and look at life from a different perspective, easily letting go of that which no longer serves you and welcoming in positivity and prosperity.

‘I Can See Clearly Now’ is a new self-development course (starting in Tralee mid October, Thurs 7.30-9.30pm) where we look at how clarity and vision is not difficult to achieve once you have the tools to guide you, music being one of these tools. Gratefulness, abundance and prosperity are just some of the affirmations that are looked at along with music and how it touches our lives either as we drive to work/school or in the instrument we are keen to learn. We can all sing a bit or play a bit ... or did at some point! Alison rediscovered her love for music three years ago after attending her first Louise Hay 2 day workshop at Coisceim Natural Healing Centre where she discovered one of the key philosophies of Louse Hay is to find your passion and live it. ‘It changed my life’ she says ‘still rushing around (Work in progress!), working all the hours possible but once I take up my guitar/ukulele at the end of the evening and tinker around with a few tunes, the stress of the day suddenly disappears and I feel more ease with myself and the world!’ Alison trained as a Louise Hay trainer in both English and Portuguese and is trained to facilitate courses in both languages. She is delighted to collaborate with Juliana Murphy (who trained in 2008) to provide a course with a difference, where you can truly learn to sing your own song or live by the beat of your own drum! As Louise Hay says ‘It is simple, not always easy’ ... as we need to change some old patterns.

But therein lies the key .... if we really want to change, we can. Alison will present more information on this course along with Juliana at their Celebration Day (celebrating the philosophies of Louise Hay on her 90th birthday) on 9th October in the Meadowlands Hotel 2-6pm (€20 entrance). More info on www.coisceimtralee.ie or telephone/text Alison on 087 9341613 or Juliana on 087 291 5343

OMBUDSMAN TO TAKE COMPLAINTS IN TRALEE THIS MONTH

Ombudsman Peter Tyndall and staff from his Office will be visiting Tralee on Thursday 22 September to take complaints from the public about public services.

It is part of the Ombudsman’s ‘Outreach’ programme, and staff from his office will be in the Rose Hotel, Tralee from 10 am to 7pm on Thursday 22 September to provide advice and assistance to the public. Staff will be available to take complaints from the public if they have tried to resolve their complaint with the provider of that service, and are unhappy with the result.

Ombudsman Peter Tyndall said: “As part of my visit to Tralee I will also be meeting with providers of public services in the area. I want to highlight the benefits of using complaints as a source of learning. My office has recently developed a Model Complaints System for dealing with complaints that we would like all service providers to use.”

Last year the Ombudsman received over 3,500 complaints about public services. 128 complaints were received from people in Kerry.

Many complaints in Kerry involve the Department of Social Protection, Kerry County Council and the HSE, because of the large number of interactions they have with the public.

The Ombudsman investigates complaints from members of the public who feel they have been unfairly treated by public service providers such as: • Government Departments and Offices • The HSE, including public hospitals • Local Authorities • Third-level education bodies such as Universities and Institutes of Technology • Private and public nursing homes See www.ombudsman.ie for more information, Lo Call 1890 22 30 30 or 01 639 5600, or e mail: ombudsman@ombudsman.ie

Flu Vaccination

Myths and Facts Advice on Flu Vaccination from your

Each September I begin to encourage many of my patients to get the flu vaccine. Yet many of them refuse. This is usually because they believe one or more of the myths about the flu vaccine. Let me try to dispel these myths.

MYTH: “The flu shot gave me the flu” FACT: The flu vaccine contains inactivated virus and cannot cause infection. The most common side effects will be mild soreness, redness or swelling where the injection was given.

Some people experience mild flu lie symptoms as their immune system responds to the vaccine but this is not flu and will pass in a day or so.

MYTH: “Vaccines are not proven to prevent the flu” FACT: If you get the flu vaccination you are 60% less likely to need treatment for the flu. Flu vaccination reduces flu related hospitalisation by up to 70%.

MYTH: “It’s better to get the flu than the vaccine” FACT: Flu can be severe and can cause serious illness and death.

Every year many people need hospital treatment for influenza and between 200 and 500 people in Ireland, mainly older people, die from influenza each winter.

MYTH: “I should wait to get vaccinated until later so that I am covered until the end of the season” FACT: The vaccination takes 10-21 days to become fully effective.

Flu is a highly contagious viral infection and at risk individuals can quickly develop symptoms after coming into contact with the virus. Therefore the later you get the vaccination the greater the risk of getting the flu while waiting for the vaccination to work.

WHO SHOULD GET VACCINATED? The highest risk of complications from influenza occur among children under 2 years old, adults the age of 65, pregnant women, and people of any age with certain chronic medical conditions such as diabetes, or weakened immune systems. All at risk people should get vaccinated but if you are a carer or a relative of high risk person you should also be vaccinated in order to prevent you transmitting the virus to them.

If you have any queries about flu vaccinations please contact your local Haven pharmacist.

After July 29th Microsoft stopped given the upgrade for free, but there is a way but it is only supposed to be for Assistive technologies, people with disabilities and who cannot use a computer in a conventional manner e.g. narrators for the blind, eye tracking machines for those unable to move a mouse, suck and puff machines, etc. Microsoft will be closing this loophole, you then will have to applied to Microsoft for the upgrade. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows10upgrade At the moment the web page is still up, and can still be used to upgrade to Windows 10 free of charge. In its FAQ Microsoft says that it will make a public announcement prior to ending the offer, and while it hasn’t yet done so, time is clearly ticking. If you use assistive technologies and want to upgrade to Windows 10 for free, you should act quickly.

the added chemicals in food today.

When you eat processed food you're giving your body another job to do rather than just focusing on burning body fat.

2. Increase Protein and reduce Carbohydrate intake.

Protein (chicken, turkey, meat, fish, eggs) is a macronutrient that most people are deficient in. Once protein is increased it will aid muscle repair and keep hunger at bay. Carbohydrates (bread, pasta, rice, potato, sugar) are generally the most over consumed macronutrient and when not used up as energy, it will be stored as fat in the body.

3. Drink 2-3 liters of water.

Roughly 60% of your body is made of water so this needs to be regularly replenished. Hydration is extremely over looked in weight loss.

4. Include resistance training (weight training) into your lifestyle.

Allows your body to burn more calories in a shorter period of time.

5. Make sure you are in a calories deficit.

Burn more calories than you take in through food or drink.

6. Keep a food diary.

This will hold you accountable and will make you realise how much food you are actually consuming.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN TRALEE...

KERRY TOURISM BUSINESSES ENCOURAGED TO DO WHAT KERRY CO.COUNCIL DID !

Kerry tourism businesses and organisations have been encouraged to enter the Irish Tourism Industry Awards which will take place next February in Dublin and have been launched by Minister for Tourism Shane Ross TD.

The Awards which give recognition to and promote companies and organisations that have made significant contributions to Irish tourism and to increasing the number of visitors from overseas.

Speaking at the launch Minister Ross said: “I am delighted to launch the Irish Tourism Industry Awards. They celebrate all that is good in the Irish tourism industry.

Tourism has performed extremely well in recent times.

It is a key aspect of Ireland’s economy as it provides jobs and growth in all parts of the country. It is right that we acknowledge the people and companies that have helped deliver success for Irish tourism.” The Irish Tourist Industry Confederation (ITIC) in conjunction with Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland is the organiser of the Irish Tourism Industry Awards. The awards ceremony will take place on Friday, 3rd February 2017 in the Doubletree by Hilton in Dublin. The Awards are a biennial event and there are 14 awards available in three main categories: International Initiatives, Tourism Innovations, and Tourism Experiences. Entries for the 2017 Awards can be made from today until November 18th at www.irishtourismindustryawards.ie. Kerry tourism businesses are encouraged to enter – Niamh O’Shea, Chair of the Kerry Convention Bureau who won the Best Business Tourism Innovation last year, said: “The Irish Tourism Industry Awards offer an opportunity to celebrate best-practice and excellence in our industry. Kerry has a range of excellent tourism products and services and I’d encourage any tourism businesses or organisations who wish to showcase their work to enter the Awards”. The awards will encompass the many sectors and experiences of Ireland’s diverse tourism industry. Awards include: Best International Marketing Initiative, Best International Access Initiative, Best Leisure Tourism Innovation – City & County, Best Business Tourism Innovation, Best Environmental Tourism Innovation, Best Local Authority Tourism Innovation, Best Innovative Place to Stay, Best Festival / Event Experience- Large & Small, Best Adventure Experience, Best Food & Beverage Experience, Best Cultural Experience – Large & Small Another previous winner was Kerry County Council who last year won the Best Local Authority Innovation. Recent CSO figures show that employment in tourism within Kerry has increased by a 1,435 jobs since 2011 as the tourism industry continues to grow and provide economic activity throughout the region. In its pre-budget submission ITIC called on the government to retain competitiveness and restore investment in the tourism sector as matters of priority, particularly to cope with the effects being felt due to the Brexit vote in the UK. Sterling’s depreciation and concerns about the UK economy risk damaging Ireland’s largest source market of visitors ITIC has said.

While tourism is performing strongly ITIC warned that growth and regional balance should not be taken for granted. The group said that the decisions taken in Budget 2017 would be vital to the sector’s performance, and its ability to continue growing jobs throughout the country.

RADIO KERRY GETS THE NOD SEVEN TIMES !!

Radio Kerry has been nominated for seven awards in this year’s National PPI Radio Awards, the highest number of nominations received by a local station in this year’s competition.

Weeshie Fogarty has been nominated for Sports Broadcaster of the Year.

In the Current Affairs Programme category, the Kerry Today show – presented by Jerry O’Sullivan and produced by Treasa Murphy – made the final shortlist of five.

Just Once was produced by the Kerry ETB/ Solas students of broadcasting who studied with Acting Manager of Radio Kerry Training, Shane O’Connor.

The students’ Just Once series was also shortlisted in the PPI Innovation category.

Since 2005, Radio Kerry has won 44 PPI awards - 14 gold, 12 silver and 18 bronze.

The latest national JNLR listenership figures from July show that 86,000 people – or 75% of the population listening to radio in the county – tune into Radio Kerry every week.

The PPI Radio Awards will take place at the Lyrath Estate Hotel, Kilkenny on October 7th.

CALLING ALL STUDENTS IN KERRY The Bord Gáis Energy Student Theatre Awards Are Back and Open for Entry!

Calling all aspiring actors, playwrights, singers and costume designers in Kerry! The annual Bord Gáis Energy Student Theatre Awards are back and are now open for entries! This is the fourth year of the highly successful Awards which were set up by Bord Gáis Energy to recognise and reward participation in the dramatic arts in schools across Ireland. Over 1,000 schools have taken part in the Awards since their launch in 2013. The highlight of the year sees shortlisted schools travel from across the country to attend the annual awards ceremony at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre in May. Kerry students made their mark at last year’s Bord Gáis Energy Student Theatre Awards by bringing home not one, but three national theatre awards. Seán Burke O’Donoghue from Holy Family National School in Rathmore, was awarded top honours in the Best Male Performance in a Leading Role category for his spectacular performance in the primary school’s production of ‘Fight for Freedom’ while Mercy Secondary School Mounthawk in Tralee walked away with two top accolades from last year’s awards! The secondary school took home the top prize in the Best Set category for its set design in the school’s production ‘Les Misérables’ and also scooped the top prize in the Best Overall School Play category for its production of ‘The Plough and the Stars’.

The Bord Gáis Energy Student Theatre awards are open to primary school pupils from 3rd – 6th class and all secondary school students.

There are 12 categories ranging from production categories such as Best Overall School Musical, Best Overall School Play, Best Set, Best Costumes and Best Performance in a Leading Role (male and female) to written categories such as Best Short Scene Script and Best Dramatic Review. A new category, Best Original Production, has also been added to the 2017 Awards in recognition of the outstanding quality of original productions entered in 2016. The deadline for entries in all production categories is 27 January 2017. The closing date for entries in the written categories is 10 February 2017. Shortlisted schools will be invited to a special awards ceremony at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre on 8 May 2017. Some schools will even get the chance to perform on Ireland’s largest theatre stage, making it a memorable experience they won’t forget! Winning schools will share a prize fund, and receive a commemorative trophy, picture and plaque for their school. The theme for the 2017 Awards is participation. We would like to call on all the proud parents and teachers in Kerry to encourage their children, classes and schools to participate this year and celebrate all the talent that we have in this country.

We’re passionate about supporting these Awards and can’t wait to see the future stars of the stage, as well as future playwrights, choreographers, costume designers and everyone in between!” To enter the awards, log on to bgesta.ie where you can download an entry form to go with your written or video submission. Completed entry forms should be sent to sta@bordgais.ie or by post to Bord Gáis Energy Student Theatre Awards, Real Nation, Fumbally Court, Fumbally Lane, Dublin 8. Further information and information packs can also be requested via bgesta.ie.

KERRY HAS SECOND HIGHEST INCIDENCE OF BREAST CANCER IN THE COUNTRY

Tralee, 6 September 2016: The Marie Keating Foundation will hold a free breast cancer seminar in the Rose Hotel, Tralee, Co Kerry from 6.30pm-9pm on Thursday, 6 October. The event is open to the general public and will explore how to prevent, detect and survive breast cancer, which is the most common female cancer in Ireland.

The seminar will also include advice on what you should know about your own breasts and body and what key questions you should ask your GP and oncologist should you be sent for tests or diagnosed with the disease.

The event is free of charge but registration is essential. Register now on www.mariekeating.ie/ events or call 01 628 3726.

The free seminar will include talks from a Marie Keating Foundation nurse, a breast cancer survivor, a consultant, and a representative of Kerry cancer support services. There will also be opportunities to ask questions and speak to the Marie Keating Foundation nurse one-on-one.

According to the National Cancer Registry of Ireland there are nearly 30,000 women living with breast cancer in Ireland. Every year around 2,900 cases are diagnosed and the number of breast cancer cases being diagnosed increases each year. One in 10 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. Co Kerry has a breast cancer incidence of 73.13 per 100,000 which is second only to Co Tipperary according to the National Cancer Registry. However, the survival rate for breast cancer continues to improve thanks to early detection and improvements in treatments. There are now approximately 121,000 breast cancer survivors in Ireland.

Speaking ahead of the Kerry seminar, Helen Forristal, Director of Nursing Services, the Marie Keating Foundation, said, “We are delighted to be holding this event in Kerry. The county has the second highest incidence of breast cancer in the country so it’s vital that women in the county come together to learn about the risk factors for the disease and how they can reduce their risk, as well as to learn about what supports are available to those already affected by the disease. We know that there are things we can do to help turn the tide against breast cancer so I would encourage as many women as possible to make the time to join us at this free event.”

In order to raise funds for its breast cancer programmes and services, and raise awareness for metastatic breast cancer, the most advanced stage of the disease, the Marie Keating Foundation is asking people in Kerry to adopt a pink rubber duck which will swim in the Pfizer Powering Pink Duck Race on the River Liffey on 15 October 2016. Each duck costs €5 with all proceeds going to the Marie Keating Foundation’s breast cancer services. The owner of the first rubber duck across the finish line will win a luxury weekend break for two people in the five-star Conrad Hotel in Dublin. Ducks can be adopted from www.mariekeating.ie/ducks

MEADOWLANDS TO LAUNCH ANNUAL ROCK BLUES & MOTORCYCLE FESTIVAL NEXT WEEKEND

MEADOWLANDS Hotel is hosting the 3rd Annual Tralee Rock, Blues & Motorcycle Festival on November 11th-13th2016. To launch the event, the Gin Palace Bar Stewards Motorcycle Club has teamed up with Meadowlands Hotel to organize a Blues Night on September 23rd 2016. Entry to the event is a donation to Kerry S.P.C.A. and includes music by Rock & Blues DJ David Foley, munchies and raffles.

Kerry S.P.C.A. is a 24 hour, 365 day a year service providing shelter to neglected and injured animals. The organization is completely run by volunteers and relies heavily on public donations and fundraising to assist in the prevention of cruelty to animals. K.S.P.C.A. has been on the go since 1960 and in that time thousands of animals and birds have been rescued and each with its own story.

Located just a short stroll from Tralee Town Centre, The Newly Renovated Meadowlands Hotel is excited to be hosting and sponsoring the Tralee Rock, Blues & Motorcycle festival this November to raise badly needed money to keep K.S.P.C.A in operation and help with essential kennel and cattery upgrades. It is guaranteed to be a memorable and entertaining weekend organized by the Gin Palace Bar Stewards Motorcycle Club. Rock and Blues bands take to the stage on the Friday and Saturday nights. Free family events, exhibitions, slow bike race and a blues jam session are planned during the day so there is something for everyone. With Dingle Distillery and Alan Johnson Sound also on board as sponsors there will be a few surprises throughout the weekend.

Tickets are now available from the Meadowlands Hotel.

For more information please contact 066 718 0444 or info@meadowlandshotel.com.

For donations, please contact www.kerryspca.org.

Hello beautiful people! I hope you’re all having a great week.

I’m off on holidays this week so I’m going to be talking about an essential staple in the holiday bag, I love coconut oil, it has so many uses and benefits.

HAIR MASK: Coconut oil will give your hair a silky texture and lots of shine. I use coconut oil as a hair mask at night after I’ve

washed my hair. Simply heat up about 5 tablespoons of coconut oil in the microwave, so that it’s a warm liquid. Then, apply it to your hair like any other hair mask. Put on a plastic shower cap or wrap an old T-shirt around your head, and leave the oil in while you sleep.

The next morning, wash it off in the shower and wow, hello perfect hair! The sun this week will dry out my hair lots so this mask will definitely the a saviour!

EYE MAKEUP REMOVER: I use coconut oil to remove my eye makeup. It takes every little bit of eye makeup off and also promotes eyelash growth. Win win situation!

FACE/BODY MOISTURISER: If you rub a little bit of coconut oil between your hands, you will immediately notice how

incredibly moisturising it feels on your skin. As a face and body moisturiser, coconut oil is much more hydrating than average storebought lotions because the oil penetrates deep layers of the skin and actually helps to strengthen underlying tissues. It will also help remove dead skin cells, removing any rough or flaky texture from your skin’s surface and giving you a full body glow. You can use coconut oil as a moisturiser for your entire face, but I like to put it under my eyes and on my lips before bedtime. The best part about this oil is that it will absorb into your skin without feeling oily or greasy. Perfect way to maintain that holiday tan!

FITNESS!

HELLO MY STRONG STRONG FRIENDS! I hope you’re all having a fantastic week! For me, while you’re reading this, i’ll be in sunny Ayia Napa!

So this week I’m just going to go back to basics, how to get into fitness if you’re a beginner, or to get into a stricter/new fitness routine.

1

Start small: Start by making small changes to your food or exercise plan. If you try to make loads of giant changes at once, you will more than likely fail. Trust me, I know.

2

Set realistic goals: Like starting small, this one is essential. If you set realistic goals that are genuinely achievable you’re more likely to succeed. If your goals are unrealistic they’ll seem too far away or too hard to reach and you’ll get easily unmotivated.

you. Not to try and please or impress someone else. Unless you want it hard enough, you won’t stay motivated. Do it so that you’re a better and healthier version of yourself.

5

WATER: With any new fitness regime, it is sooooo sooooo important to be properly hydrated. There are so many health benefits to proper hydration!

3

Get help: I mean professional fitness help, if you feel you need it. There is nothing better to help you reach your goals than advice from a professional who knows exactly what you should do.

4

You have to want it: If you’re starting a fitness regime, you have to want it for

IT’S ONLY A JOKE HAD A HOUSE PARTY LAST NIGHT

...and there’s always one left over! Laid on the floor in the corner, still that drunk? He couldn’t even stand! Asked him where he lived, then dragged him down the driveway to my car, his legs all over the place, picked him up, threw him inside, & took him home.

Dragged him up to his house & knocked on his front door, “I’ve brought your son home.” His mother replied, “Where is his wheel chair?”

A YOUNG MAN GOES INTO A DRUGSTORE TO BUY CONDOMS

The pharmacist says the condoms come in packs of 3, 9 or 12 and asks which the young man wants.

“Well,” he said, “I’ve been seeing this girl for a while and she’s really hot. I want the condoms because I think tonight’s “the” night. We’re having dinner with her parents, and then we’re going out.

And I’ve got a feeling I’m gonna get lucky after that. Once she’s had me, she’ll want me all the time, so you’d better give me the 12 pack.”

The young man makes his purchase and leaves.

Later that evening, he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and her parent’s. He asks if he might give the blessing, and they agree. He begins the DIGGING HOLES prayer, but continues praying for several minutes.

An elderly woman wakes one morning and looks The girl leans over and says, “You never told me out of her bedroom window. Across the road she that you were such a religious person.” sees two men from the local council office slowly making their way up the grassy embankment at the He leans over to her and whispers, “You never told me that your father is a pharmacist.” side of the road.

The man in front starts to dig a hole in the embankment and after some time moves forward and begins digging another hole. The second man then proceeds to immediately fill in the hole which the first man had only just finished digging.

Perplexed by the odd behaviour of the men, the old woman continues to watch them to see if they will do the same with the next hole.

Surely enough, the men from the council continue this pattern for a good 30 minutes before the old woman, agitated with confusion and curiosity; decides it’s time to find out what the men are doing.

“Excuse me young man, what on earth is the point of this, what are you doing?” Says the old woman, “The point?” Says the first man, “The point is to improve the appearance of the roads in this area, to give them a more natural look”.

“Natural?” Exclaims the woman, “How exactly does this make the road look more natural? All you’re doing is digging holes and then filling them in again!”, the two men exchange a disheartened glance before the second man yells “Well it normally looks better, but the fella who plants the trees is off today!”

THERE WAS ONCE A MILLIONAIRE WHO COLLECTED A LARGE AMOUNT OF ALLIGATORS AS PETS.

One day he held a party and came up with a proposition. He said if anyone could swim across the alligator infested pool and emerge unharmed he would pay them $1 million or give them his beautiful daughter’s hand in marriage.

Immediately after he finished saying this he heard a splash and the entire crowd watched and cheered as a young man swam quickly across the pool, thrashing and splashing, and moments later emerging from the water unharmed.

The millionaire was overcome with laughter, and with tears in his eyes said that he would honor his end of the bargain.

“Well”, he said,”do you want the $1 million or my daughter? The young man answered, “Sir, I don’t want your money or your daughter, I just want to know who the hell pushed me into that pool!”

REGULAR COLUMNS

The More you tell the more you sell!!!

KNOW YOUR RIGHT: DONATIONS TO CHARITY Question I make regular donations to charity. Can I claim tax back on my donations?

Answer The tax code provides for tax relief for “eligible charities” and other “approved bodies” including schools and educational institutions. Revenue lists bodies that have been granted a charitable tax exemption on its website.

If you make a donation of at least €250 to an eligible charity, tax relief on your donation is allowed to the charity rather than to you (the donor). Cash donations made in instalments, such as by standing order, also qualify. The charity can claim a refund of tax on your donation at the end of the tax year. Relief is granted to the charity at a blended rate of 31% rather than the rate you actually pay. The donor is not entitled to a repayment of any part of the tax that has been repaid to the charity.

The amount repaid to a charity for any tax year cannot be more than the amount of tax actually paid by the donor for that year. For example, if your income tax liability for 2015 is €350 (which you have paid), the repayment to the charity is restricted to that amount.

The minimum qualifying donation for individuals in a year of assessment is €250 and the maximum qualifying donation is €1 million. (Note that corporate donations are treated differently.)

If you are willing to allow the charity claim a refund on your donation, you need to fill out a form - either an “Annual Certificate” (CHY4) for a single tax year, or an “Enduring Certificate” (CHY3) which lasts for up to five years. You can find more information about tax refunds to charitable organisations in Revenue’s booklet about the Charitable Donation Scheme (pdf).

COLÁISTE GLEANN LÍ STANDS UP TO BULLYING AND LAUNCHES THE ISPCC BANGLE IN KERRY

The ISPCC has launched its 2016 Shield Campaign, raising awareness of the need to Stand Up Against Bullying, and asking the public to support the campaign by buying a bangle in Penneys’ stores nationwide. Last year, the Penneys bangles raised over €36,000 for the Shield Anti-Bullying programme.

You can support this campaign by simply purchasing a Shield bangle in Penneys Tralee. The ISPCC bangle features the shield pendant with a bangle for women and a band for men, both featuring the blue Shield colour. The bangles cost just €2.50 and you can also buy Shield pins, which cost €2, at all Penneys outlets nationwide. All profits will be donated to the ISPCC Shield programme.

Coláiste Gleann Lí, who were the first school in Kerry to receive the Shield Flag as part of the Shield Anti-Bullying programme, will launch the Shield bangle in Kerry.

IPSCC Chief Executive Grainia Long stated: “In 2015, 7,048 contacts were made to Childline about bullying. The young people we work with in our mentoring and emotional and behavioural support services in the community also bring up bullying as a key issue for them.* The Shield Programme is available to schools, clubs and other groups working with young people, with a range of supports to help them to tackle and prevent bullying – Shield My School Toolkit, Shield My Club Toolkit, Shield Flag and the Shield Youth Award; all developed by the ISPCC to support our communities.

Coláiste Gleann Lí’s Assistant Principal Maryanne Lowney stated: “Colaiste Gleann Li were the first school in Kerry to receive a Shield Flag so we are hoping to encourage other schools in the area to get involved in the anti-bullying campaign. We are delighted to be involved in the Shield campaign and continue to stand up to bullying.

“What you wear can make a difference. Buy your bangle in Penneys Tralee and help support a really good cause.”

The ISPCC’s Shield Anti-Bullying Programme includes the Shield My School Self-Evaluation Tool and Shield My Club Self-Evaluation Tool programmes, which supports schools, early years services and clubs to develop enhanced anti-bullying measures, working with classes, teachers and childcare workers together to raise awareness of bullying and its impacts and how it can be reduced and effectively guarded against.

In 2015, 19 Shield Flags were awarded to primary and secondary schools, early years services and Youthreach Centres that have completed their anti-bullying programme and achieved a high standard in this work.

All schools, clubs and early years services who wish to strengthen their preventative approach to bullying can find out more about the ISPCC’s Anti-Bullying Shield Campaign at ispcc.ie/shield.

For more information on the Shield programme, you can contact National Anti-Bullying Coordinator Sinead McKee – Sinead.McKee@ ispcc.ie, 0867226788

TORQUING CARS! MERCEDES-BENZ TEASE THEIR VAN VISION – COMPLETE WITH JOYSTICK AND DELIVERY DRONES

This ghostly premonition of the future urban delivery is Mercedes’ Vision Van, an electric van concept unveiled this week, designed to improve delivery efficiency in congested urban areas by as much as 50 per cent. It has the capability of launching aerial drones and releasing a fleet of self-piloted pavement robots to respectively fly and trundle your parcel that last mile to your house. Vision Van is part of a €500 million revamp of Mercedes-Benz’s commercial vehicle division, which will see it move from just making vehicles into a mobility provider, through digitisation, automation and robotisation of the delivery process. Effectively this means that Mercedes-Benz is becoming a vehicle operator as well as a provider, a risky strategy which has the prize of helping it to counter the growing threat from mobile-phone-based delivery services and local bus services similar to the Uber taxi app. Vision Van is part of that aim and uses a battery and a 75kW, 270Nm motor to give delivery ranges of up to 270km and a top speed of 120km/h. With no steering wheel, it has joy stick control for steering, accelerator and braking and the load bed which is loaded by robots using intelligent racks which tell the driver which parcel should be delivered to which address.

“We are very proud of it,” says Volker Mornhinweg head of Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles. “It will support deliveries in a number of ways and most significant are the aerial drones. In 2020 MB van will be a very different van in a number of ways and this is the vanguard.” He says that although Mercedes’s commercial operations are making record numbers of vehicles and profits, the company has to change the way it operates because of increasing urbanisation, congestion and digitisation. Citing figures that suggest London’s population will grow from about 40 million today to 60 million in 2020, and that e-grocery delivery is growing by 10 per cent a year, he says that currently the average parcel delivery van carries 180 parcels, but the driver has to stop at least ten times on a delivery run to spend three minutes sorting the load out. In addition, drivers are typically walking two kilometres each hour to deliver parcels.

LOCAL VIRGINIA POLICE DEPARTMENT ACCEPTS CANNED FOOD ITEMS AS PARKING TICKET PAYMENT

A Virginia police department is asking residents to pay their parking tickets in canned food items that will go to a local charity. From September 13 until the end of the year, the Strasburg police department in Virginia will accept 10 canned food items as a from of payment for parking tickets. “We’re hoping it draws more attention to things and, through the multiplier effect, people will end up donating who don’t get any tickets,” police chief Tim Sutherly told the Northern Virginia Daily. According to the local newspaper the idea came to the police chief after hearing of a successful outcome of the programme in Kentucky from a fellow law enforcement officer.In the new system each canned item is worth $1. Mr Sutherly estimates that, at the going rate, the town will issue between $150 and $200 worth of parking tickets by the end of the year with a standard parking violation drawing a $10 fine.

He said that the programme will be reevaluated at the end of the trial period.

with “The Voice” Pat Harnett

FAI NATIONAl P.R.O. OF THE YEAR LEAGUE FIXTURES WILL FOCUS KERRY: The one good thing in sport is that if you are not successful in one competition then there is another one just around the corner. And while Kerry will be feeling a bit down on Sunday as Dublin and Mayo face off in Croke Park thoughts will quickly turn to the Allianz League as the fixtures have been released.

The draw favours Kerry this year as they play 4 home games and 3 away so the target will be to get back to the decider again. The Kingdom will be at home to Mayo, Monaghan, Dublin and Tyrone with away trips to Donegal, Roscommon and Cavan.

The stand-out fixture is against the Dubs on St Patrick’s Day and as they always bring a big crowd to Kerry it should make for a big weekend. And Kerry defeated the Dubs the last time they came to town in 2015.

Kerry opened up with their longest trip and take on Donegal on Sunday February 5th. They follow up with 2 home games on the 12th v Mayo (possibly the All Ireland Champions!) and Monaghan on February 12th.

Into March and its away to Roscommon on the 5th, the home game against Dublin (probably the All Ireland Champions!) on the 19th before the travel to Cavan on March 26th.

Kerry round off their League campaign on April 2nd at home to Tyrone in what could be a vital game for both sides.

No Semi Finals: Next year sees the new format with the semi-finals being abolished its now the top 2 teams that go straight to the National League final with the bottom 2 being relegated.

The only downside of this is that you could be safe with a couple of games to go but without the possibility of making the top two. However from the managements point of view if this happens it will give them an opportunity to try more players in games where performance would be more important than results.

However Kerry will be aiming to make the top two but will need to make a better start than in other years. And the question now will turn to the squad of players that will be available to Eamonn Fitzmaurice. How many of the present will go or will take a break and have we enough players of the quality to come through from the Juniors, u21’s and minors? It certainly looks like we have but until players are tested it’s only speculation that they can make the step up.

There is no doubt that the National League has taken on a greater importance than in former years and once again it will be very interesting to see how Kerry gets on come February.

HURLER’S AIM TO STAY AT THE TOP: Kerry’s emergence as a strong hurling county continues and next year’s League campaign will again be a vital one with the aim of them remaining in Division 1B. Like the footballers Kerry will have an extra home game which

44

TRALEE ADVERTISER

should help in what is a very tough Division for Ciaran Carey’s charges. They open at home to Laois on February 12th in a game they will certainly be targeting. They then face two very difficult away assignments – Limerick on February 18th and Wexford on March 4th.

Kerry welcome Galway to town on March 12th in a game that should attract a huge crowd while they finish off with another home game.

They will be hoping to continue their good form against Offaly when the face them on March 26th. If they can take 2 wins it might be enough to keep them in this Division.

Kerry hurling is certainly in a good place and will be high on confidence following the minors 5 in a row All Ireland wins the u21’s going well and a strong senior panel. The hurlers will be hoping that their success sees the crowds come out an support them when the action gets underway early in the New Year.

MINORS TO BE THE MAJOR STARS: It’s D Day this Sunday for the Kerry minors. They have been hugely impressive all year and will be hoping to turn on the style one more time when they face Galway in the All Ireland final in Croke Park.

Kerry put Kildare to the sword in the semi-final but their 22 point win. However the question is how good were Kerry or how poor were Kildare? On the other hand Galway defeated a very highly thought of Donegal side so Kerry will certainly treat them with the respect they deserve.

Kerry manager Peter Keane will be working hard to ensure his charges do not take too much notice of the ‘raging hot favourites’ tag. But this is a Kerry side that are used to winning and have a hunger and desire that can only be satisfied when they win the Tom Markham Cup. And for many of the squad this is there only opportunity to add this medal to their collection. Kerry had a long drought but are now on the edge of a remarkable three in a row at this level.

The whole county will be behind the squad on Sunday and as Peter Keane said “I hope they give it their all and any of them don’t wake up on Monday morning with any regrets. This is all we ask and the result will take care of itself”.

STACKS THE TOP CLUB: Austin Stacks are the Castleisland Mart County Senior Club champions after a hard fought 2-12 to 1-14 win over fellow Black and Amber wearers Dr Crokes. The game lived up to expectations and gave the big crowd in the Fitzgerald Stadium plenty to cheer and talk about. The goals were vital and Stacks got their first from Shane O’Callaghan and the second 10 minutes into the second half from Fearghal McNamara which closed the gap to 1 point and the Tralee side pushed on from there.

Friday 16th September 2016

STACKS JUVENILE NEWS: The u6’s had a very enjoyable morning when they hosted Na Gaeil. They will make the return trip on September 25th.

The under 8’s continue on Thursday’s and Sunday’s with the Bracker Regan Cup Competition on-going. The u9’s defended their Canty Cup title in Cork last Sunday. They saw big clubs including St Finbarrs, Kilmacud Crokes, Nemo Rangers, Douglas and Round Towers from Kildare.

The u10 are in training and have a busy time coming up with the John Lynch Invitational and the Siobhan Cotter Blitzes coming up in the next month.

The u12’s competitive season has come to an end but the players will be involved in the Charlie Hickey Cup which begins shortly.

Players will be notified by text.

The u14’s are in Town League action when they are away to Churchill this Sunday at 12 noon while some of the u16 players will be on duty with Tralee Districk when they take on Kenmare this weekend. In the Town League the 16s are away to Na Gaeil.

LEE STRAND CUP STAYS IN STACKS: The 31st running of the Lee Strand U13 tournament was a great success and made even sweeter when Austin Stacks won back the title.

They headed Group A after Satruday’s games defeating Legion, Ennistymon and Nemo Rangers to qualify for the semi-finals.

Here the met defending champions Salthill/ Knocknacarra, who were looking for 3 in row. In the end the Stacks won 1-6 to 0-02.

It was a Kerry /Dublin clash in the final with Ballyboden-St Endas the opponents. The Dubs played with a strong wind and were 2-3 to 1-3 ahead at the break with Jordan Kissane getting the goal for Stacks. Donnacha Sayers goaled in the second half and the sides were level entering the final quarter. Stacks pushed on and when Kissane scored again as did Gavin Slattery the Cup was destined for the Tralee sides trophy cabinet on a 5-7 to 2-5 score line.

Shane Bastible was presented with the Cup as captain, completing a great day for the family as his bother Cormac captained the u9’s in their win in Cork, while Joey Nagle was named the Player of the Final.

Well done to fellow Tralee side Na Gaeil who won the Abie Allen Plate defeating John Mitchels in the final.

KERINS O’RAHILLY’S NEWS: The Senior squad are preparing well for the Championship quarter final with the clash against Dr Crokes set for Austin Stacks Park on October 1st at 3pm.

Juvenile: The under 10 girls travelled to the Na Gaeil Blitz and had a great day taking on Scartaglin,. Austin Stacks and Abbeydorney.

This was the first Blitz the u10’s have taken part in so well done to all concerned. They were delighted to be presented with their medals by Aidan O’Mahony.

They then travelled to Passage West for their annual Blitz and had a great day despite the early start of 7.30am. The Parade through the village was one of the highlights of the day and all the girls enjoyed the football.

The under 8’s and u10 boys are training as usual on Thursdays and Sundays.

Wednesday September 21st is the final date for dropping in items for the Ladies fundraiser.

Junior Ladies training continues at the usual times.

The u12’s played Rahillys in the North Kerry Ladies Plate final in mid-week and we will have the result next week.

The u13’s went down to Dr Crokes in the Championship Shield Final and despite being short a few players those on duty put up a good show. However the Crokes were stronger on the night.

The u14 Ladies have 3 games left in the North Kerry League against Beale Ballyduff, Currow and Finuge and they train every Thursday at 6.30pm.

There was no winner of the Lotto from the numbers drawn 5,7,12 and 15 and the next Jackpot is e1,600.

Juvenile training continues on Sunday mornings at the Centre of Excellence. The u10’s hosted Firies and enjoyed their two games. They play Na Gael this Sunday.

KDL CORNER: There were home defeats for both the Tralee sides in the Denny’s KDL Premier with Tralee Dynamos losing out to Listowel Celtic 4-1 and The Park going down to Killarney Athletic 2-1.

The two Tralee sides clash in the opening round of the Munster Junior Cup this evening, Friday 16th, with Dynamos having home advantage.

Both sides will want to win this as they will be at home again in the 2nd Round against Inter Kenmare or Killarney Athletic. This one is hard to call but if Dynamos can get their full squad out then Jason Fitzgeralds side might just sneak it.

CSKA Tralee were also beaten losing their Premier B game against Castleisland 3-2. Denny Division 1A was much kinder to the Tralee sides with Tralee Celtic defeating Ballyhar 2-0 and Mitchels Avenue taking the points with a 2-1 win over Asdee and Tralee Celtic winning on the same score line against QPR. Strand Road defeated Killarney Athletic B 2-0 IN Denny Division 1B but Mitchels Avenue B lost out 3-1 to Annascaul Inch United.

KDL: The next delegate meeting of the Kerry District League takes place on Monday, September 19th at 8pm in Mpounthawk.

THE UPS AND DOWNS OF CYCLING: Two Tralee riders experienced very different feelings this week. For Sean Lacey it was another great weekend as he has ended the season as the Number 1 in the Riders Rankings after a long season that began back in February.

From the Lacey Cup which is the first event of the season to last Sunday at the Laragh Classic in Wicklow riders are awarded points. Sean went in 10 points clear and with 10 points going to the winner he knew that any place in the top 5 would have given him the title. In the end he finished second to his Aquablue teammate Conor Hennerbry and took his first ever Number 1 spot in the rankings after being runner-up twice.

On the down side a bout of tonsillitis put Barrow’s Emily Brick out of the Ras na mBan where sjhe was due to race with the Scott Orwell team. Here fellow Kerry rider on the team Michelle Geoghan had a good week taking 33rd overall.

PARNELLS NEWS: The club wants to pay a special tribute to Tara Cullen and her team who fed over 500 people at the Big Camogie Blitz and to county players Jackie Horgan and Aoife Behan for all the refereeing of the u12 matches.

Nice words from over the border: The Laochra Og girls took part in the Blitz and their club were delighted with the day, winning the Shield.

They are a new club, covering Macroom and Muskerry areas and were full of praise for the Parnells organisers. It was a proud day for Laochra Og captain Aine Sheehan when she was presented with the Shield by Tralee Parnells Club President Eileen Cotter.

The u12’s did well on their last 2 County League games at Kilmoyley and are looking forward to the League final.

Members are asked to start thinking about Scor na bPaisti which will begin in the coming months.

The u15’s took on Lixnaw in the u15 B North Kerry final in Kilmoyley and it was a cracking game. The North Kerry side took the win in the end and Parnells were not helped by having only 15 on duty on the night.

GREAT POINT FOR THE KERRY 17’S: The Kerry u17’s took on 3rd placed Waterford United in their second last home game in the u17 Airtricity League. The game was a cracker and played in front of the biggest crowd of the season.

Kerry went ahead through Karl O’Sullivan but Wateford, who were looking to second in the League levelled and then went ahead before a Sheagh O’Connor strike levelled the game with ten minutes to go. Both sides had chances to win by a point a piece was a good result and moved Kerry onto 10 points for the season.

They are away to Salthill Devon this Saturday with the Galway side also on 10 points. Their

RALLYING ACROSS THE SHANNON: There will be a large number of Kerry rally crews heading across the Shannon this weekend to take part in the Clare Stages Rally. The highest ranked Kerry crew is Mike Quinn and Tony Healy in their Ford Escort while Tralee’s Damien Young and Sean Hegarty will be out in their Honda Civic.

On the international front Rob Duggan and Ger Conway head to the Isle of Mann Rally, the final round of the British Junior Rally Championship with the title already wrapped up.

NO TRIALS AT THE TRACK: The highlights at the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium this weekend are the first rounds of the Castleisland Tyres A7 confined 525 yards on Friday night and the semi-finals of the Steve Kennedy Memorial A5 525 yards on Saturday night.

There are no unrecorded trials next Wednesday or Thursday due to essential track maintenance but the Saturday morning session will take place as normal.

Entries are now been taken for the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium Supporters Club A3 confined A3 525 yards (48 entries) starting on Friday October 7th. This is for members only and the dogs must have at least two races in Tralee over any distance. If the Stake fills there will be a prize fund of e6000.

RECOVERY HAVEN NIGHT AT THE DOGS LAUNCHED: The Night at the Dogs in aid of Recovery Haven will take place at the Track on October 29th with the final of the Kelliher’s Toyota Sweepstake being the highlight.

There will also be lots of off track activities including the Best Dressed Lady and Gent competitions and a special Halloween Costume

KERRY THIRDS WIN AND ARE SECOND: The Kerry Thirds, who were missing a number of regulars, had no problems seeing off Cork Harlequins in Munsters Cricket Division 2. They restricted the Cork side to 60 runs in 29 overs.

Kerry saw the rain coming and got the runs they needed in just 11 overs with Awais hitting 34 not out. The Thirds can still overtake UCC if they win this weekend and results go their way.

The First can still retain their second place in the Premier Division but at worst will finish 3rd while the Seconds have ended up bottom of their Division.

FROM THE WATER TO THE HOTEL: The Tralee Bay Swimming Club’s trophies are being dusted down and will be presented at the Awards Night in the Meadowlands Hotel on Saturday September 24th. The winner of the Swimmer of the Year is the most coveted title and the announcement is much anticipated.

ON THE GREENS: There was no action at the Tralee Golf Club as all competitions were cancelled due to the bad weather. The club were in Irish Junior Cup action in mid-week when they represented the county and Munster. They took on Castle GC in Rathfarnham and we will have the result next week. The Ladies took on Castleisland in the Joe Quinlan Scotch Foursomes final and hopefully we will have another win in the competition to tell you about next week. This trophy was introduced by former Tralee Lady Captain Norah Quinlan in memory of her uncle Joe. Tralee GC will be in the Dr Billy O’Sullivan semifinals on September 30th when they take on Castleisland on O’Mahony’s Point.
