Local MABS celebrates 25 years of service WATERFORD MABS marked 25 years of service to the people of Waterford with a special event on Monday, September 17th. Minister for Employment $ŕľľDLUV DQG 6RFLDO 3URWHFWLRQ Regina Doherty TD addressed the event, which took place at the Granville Hotel. Since its inception in 1993, Waterford MABS has helped over 20,000 people in the Waterford area. Waterford was RQH RI ÂżYH RULJLQDO 0$%6 SLORW projects established at that time to address the growing problem of over indebtedness. Originally managed and administered by the South Eastern Health Board, the SURMHFW ZDV ÂżUVW ORFDWHG LQ WKH Ballybeg area of Waterford City where 80% of the population was estimated to be dependent on income from social welfare. Rent and electricity arrears were the main areas of concern,

as was borrowing from money lenders at excessive interest rates. As the service evolved, Waterford MABS played an instrumental role in introducing initiatives and informing legislation to address the myriad issues faced by those in personal debt. It has since grown to be one of the largest MABS services in Ireland. Speaking on the eve of the 25th anniversary, Money Advice Co-ordinator Anna Walsh said many of the issues tackled by the original pilot project remain

“deeply relevantâ€? today. “The need for our services was never more evident than GXULQJ WKH SRVW ÂżQDQFLDO crisis. The housing market collapse and mortgage arrears crisis led to a marked increase in demand for the services of MABS nationally. Yet, even as the country returns to economic prosperity, problem debt is an LVVXH IRU D VLJQLÂżFDQW FRKRUW RI people and we are as in demand as ever. “MABS is proud to have helped the people of Waterford for a quarter of a century DQG RXU VHUYLFH RŕľľHULQJ ZLOO continue to grow in line with their requirements,â€? said Walsh. The most recent piece of research undertaken by Waterford MABS was a direct UHVSRQVH WR WKH GLŕľśFXOWLHV ORZ income clients experience in assessing insolvency under the Personal Insolvency Act 2012.

conference to demonstrate the magic of research and industry collaboration

Keith Barry, Keynote Speaker

D

isruptive Innovation is the theme of a new conference aimed at businesses and innovators which will demonstrate how availing of Government funding to collaborate with researchers. Organisers recognised the need in the South East for an event dedicated to facilitating collaboration opportunities between entrepreneurs, start-ups, multinationals, academic researchers and state agencies. Amplitude, which runs in Waterford’s WIT Arena on 3 October 2018 is led by research centres in Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT) and Institute of Technology Carlow (IT Carlow). Funding opportunities vary from Innovation Vouchers worth €5,000 up to R&D and Commercialisation Funds worth six figures to a company. The driving force behind the event are research centres TSSG (Telecommunication Systems Software Group), SEAM (South Eastern Applied Materials), PMBRC (Pharmaceuticals and Molecular Bio Technology Research Centre and RIKON

Dr Patricia Mulcahy, President of Institute of Technology Carlow and Professor Willie Donnelly, President of Waterford Institute of Technology (Business Technology Management) along with Design Plus (Design, Engineering, ICT and Bioscience) engCORE from IT Carlow. Launching the event, Prof Willie Donnelly, President of WIT and one of the founders of WIT’s TSSG research centre, explained that between both institutes almost every industry can gain from collaboration to grow, develop

and improve their product, processes or services - no matter the size. “Companies will discover how to design and develop new or existing products or services. Academic experts and industry partners from both Institutes will give real life examples of successful collaborations,” he said. Dr Patricia Mulcahy, President, IT Carlow said that often times it is hard for

companies and innovators to navigate the vast array of supports, funding and information when they need it. “Our goal is to help businesses and innovators see or hear something or connect with someone that could be a game changer for their organisation”. Keynote speakers include Ann Kehoe, Global Head of Brand for Alltech and Marc O’Regan, CTO with

Dell EMC who will break down their experiences in the realm of Disruptive Innovation and how their companies face the daily challenges of staying ahead of their competitors.

TED Talks of all time since 2008. Barry will describe his experience of working with some of the top companies in the world and discuss how he grew his career to become, not only a world-renowned Mind Magician, but a consultant on the Hollywood blockbuster ‘Now You See Me’ and a mind coach to celebrities and top sports people around the world. Delegates will have the opportunity to try out some exciting demos of science and technology and a dedicated start up area sponsored by South East Local Enterprise Offices will also give companies a chance to see what’s emerging in the start-up scene.

Immune Boosters

fter the wonderful summer we’ve enjoyed this year, there has been a noticeable change in the air in September, with temperatures starting to drop, especially at night. Your immune system becomes more sluggish in cold weather, and can also be severely weakened by a number of factors: these include excess alcohol, cigarettes, a high-fat or proteinGH¿FLHQW GLHW ODFN RI VOHHS or stress. As well as avoiding these factors, try the following tips to help boost your immune system and maintain your positive health and well-being:

1. Eat a mucus-free diet A number of foods create too much mucous in the diet, especially milk and dairy products, eggs and red meat (some people are particularly susceptible to this). Excess mucous clogs up the lymphatic system, so try to cut down on or avoid these foods. Try soya or rice milk, make your

Keep drinking When you are under viral attack, your immune system needs to get rid of toxic debris, which it does via the kidneys and bladder.

Drink tepid water, herbal teas, diluted fruit juices or vegetable juices to help the kidneys to do their MRE &XW EDFN RQ FR྾HH WHD DQG alcohol, and drink at least 6 – 8 glasses of water daily.

Or eat room temperature kiwi fruits x 2 daily, preferably before your meals (kiwis enhance the digestive enzymes in the stomach and aid digestion). 4. Maintain adequate temperature and humidity levels Central heating can dry up your mucous membranes, so humidify your room with a saucer of water near the heater to moisten the air and help prevent sinusitis. 5. Exercise Make sure you continue to exercise during the winter months even if only for a short period during your lunch-break.

Waiting can be bad for your Health

W

hen the latest statistic that waiting times for patients had risen to their highest level yet, there can’t have been too many people that were surprised. There are now over 700.000 people on waiting lists with over 50.000 of them children. That so many people are waiting for treatment in one of the most developed economies in the world is truly frightening. Of course you can take into account the underfunding of the health sector during the economic downturn but it still wouldn’t fully explain why so many people are waiting for the treatment that they need. The fact is that the health budget in Ireland is running on for nearly 15 billion euro a year and this in a country that has a huge number of young people per head of population. In fact Ireland spends more on health per head of population than nearly any other country in the developed world. So the question has to be, what is going wrong and what can be done to remedy it? These are questions that have apparently stumped most, if not nearly all of the professionals, not only in the system but those who are charged with seeing it is run as best as it can. There is no doubt that the people at the coal face in the health system are doing the best that they can but it is becoming increasingly FOHDU WKDW WKHUH DUH VRPH IXQGDPHQWDO V\VWHPLF ÀDZV LQ WKH whole operation. That so many people can be waiting for operations, either in or out patient, is clearly a symptom that something is seriously wrong. It is expected that there could be an overrun of nearly one billion euro in the spending on hospitals this year alone. Clearly the buck has to stop somewhere and in this case it is clear where that is. Minister for Health, Simon Harris is the person charged to run the health system in Ireland and it is something of a poisoned chalice. It has been the ruination of politicians before him. It is clear that there is something fundamental in their approach to the health system that is not working. Can it be the cumbersome bureaucracy of the HSE, the way funds are allocated or catching up with decades of underfunding in the system. There are other health system models in the world that are working better than ours. Would it be so impossible to take D OHDI IURP WKHLU ERRNV DQG VHH LI GRLQJ WKLQJV D GL൵HUHQW ZD\ works? It is usually during the winter months that the cracks in the health system and the cracks in our hospitals are most evident. The fact is that they are really there to see every day of the year if you take even the most cursory of looks. The one thing is certain is that waiting lists are only going to rise and more sick people are going to go without treatment the more that our SROLWLFLDQV KDUH DURXQG SXWWLQJ RXW ZLOG¿UHV LQVWHDG RI WDNLQJ a more considered and deep rooted approach to the health system.

Our View

No Show is a Good Show

The news that the President of the United States has unceremoniously cancelled, or ‘postponed’ in diplomatic speech, his trip to Ireland can only really be considered a good thing. No matter the kow-towing and forelock tugging that goes on at these events when someone in such a powerful position comes to Ireland the Irish people can really do without the full dog and pony show that follows in this Presidents wake. No doubt the forces of law and order won’t have to put in inordinate bills for overtime to ensure his safety so that can DOVR EH VHHQ DV D EHQH¿W DV ZHOO

I’m with Roy

R

oy Keane has certainly been in the news a lot in the last few weeks. He’s probably had a higher PHGLD SUR¿OH than Leo Varadker. He’s certainly taken up more column inches and radio time than his manager Martin O’Neill, or the Irish team’s dismal loss to Wales in the Nations Cup and respectable draw away to Poland in a friendly. Roy is someone who polarises opinion. You either like him or you don’t. You either agree with him or you don’t. He doesn’t pull his punches; there’s no in-between. Perhaps that’s why he doesn’t come across well doing his ITV punditry, in my mind. He’s someone with something

Brian Quigley to say, and that doesn’t sit well with a station who would prefer if you didn’t say anything, RU MXVW VDLG EODQG LQR൵HQVLYH things. I’m with Keane in the whole Harry Arter / Jonathan Walters spat. He shouldn’t have said what he’s reported to have said, or acted the way he’s reported to have acted, but we shouldn’t be KHDULQJ DERXW LW 6WX൵ OLNH WKDW

shouldn’t be leaving the camp. Roy didn’t hit anyone or say anything racist, sexist or homophobic – all things that would have crossed a line in my book. He was cruel in what he said to the guys but they should have been able to deal with it. It didn’t need to be washed in public. I hope Keane doesn’t lose his job over this. He’s the greatest player we have ever had, and we need his input into reviving our national team. Obviously he has anger management issues and needs to address these, but he should keep his job. Martin O’Neill was right to defend him. I hate the phenomenon of ‘player power’. It got Ranieri moved on from Leicester after winning the Premiership. It got Peter Beardsley investigated for supposedly bullying just because he was tough with

some academy players he was coaching at Newcastle. Football is meant to be a sport for tough characters, not prima donnas. The poor state of the Ireland team isn’t all down to Keane and O’Neill. They can only work with what they’ve got. We have a decent squad of players at the moment but they are not as good as previous groups. We are building for the future. Less and less Irish players are making the grade at Premiership and Championship teams, due to the money the clubs have to buy in foreign players. This is a fact that we can’t ignore. If we had a stronger league here we could pick from that more. The fact that our league is weak is John Delaney’s fault, not Roy Keane’s or Martin O’Neill’s.

WILDLIFE with Justin Ivory

Bat Bling

ninenottomiss BOOK of the week

TV SHOW of the week

FILM of the week

HOROSCOPES Nathusius’ Pipistrelle with ring (Photo Daniel Hargreaves) SOME OF OUR Irish bats have become the envy of their fellow chiropterans as they have been bedecked with silver rings and are rocking a new uber cool look! On the 2nd September 6 Nathusius’ Pipistrelles (Pipistrellus nathusii) – 3 males and 3 females were caught using a harp trap and acoustic lure in Killeshandra, Co. Cavan. All 6 were fitted with rings inscribed with the codes IRL0016 to IRL0021. We have 9 species of bats resident in Ireland. Up until the mid-90s there were only 7 species but then it was found that our Pipistrelle bat was actually 2 different species – and was split into Common Pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) and Soprano Pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus). Around the same time the first confirmed Irish breeding colony of Nathusius’ Pipistrelle (often referred to as P.nath for short by bat people) was discovered in May 1997 near Lough Neagh.

FEAR by Bob Woodward With authoritative reporting honed through eight presidencies from Nixon to Obama, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies. Woodward draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand sources, meeting notes, personal diaries, files and documents. The focus is on the explosive debates and the decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One and the White House residence.

EVENT of the week

There is still little known about Nathusius’ Pipistrelles in Ireland and the UK and in recent years projects have been setup in both countries to gain a greater understanding of the ecology, current status and conservation threats for this species. Populations in Continental Europe can be highly migratory with some travelling distances of up to 1,900km between summer and winter roosts but there are also some countries where the species is present all year round. Recent studies in the UK using rings on bats have discovered that some of the UK population migrate as far as Latvia and Lithuania. It is still unclear if the Irish population of this bat is migratory or not. Hopefully the ringing of the some individuals will help to determine if this is the case or not. The project also hopes to establish a clearer picture of the population size and locations in Ireland to help with conservation efforts. It has been shown on the continent that wind turbines pose a significant threat to migrating bats.

Daily life for staff and patients at the world’s longest-running maternity hospital, where an average of 24 babies are born every day. Grandmother Kay helps daughter Nicola through childbirth, young couple Shauna and Daryl anxiously await their baby’s arrival and Monaghan couple à ine and Arno cope with the news that their unborn child has a life-threatening condition. Brazilian couple Joao and Marianna anxiously await the arrival of their first child together, but it seems the baby does not want to come out.

CULTURE EVENT of the week

THE HAPPYTIME MURDERS ROI Rating: - 16 No Sesame. All Street. The Happytime Murders is a comedy set in Los Angeles where puppets and humans coexist. Detective Phil Philips is a down-on-his-luck puppet who used to work for the Los Angeles Police Department. When two puppets from an old TV show wind up dead, Phil suspects something is afoot and rejoins the LAPD as a consultant. Reunited with Connie Edwards, his former human partner, the bickering duo soon find themselves in a race against time to protect other former cast members before the killer strikes again.

Not all of you departed, When you left the world behind. For in my heart there is a place, That only you can hold. Filled with loving memories, I care more for than gold.

So please know this is true, That everything I am today Is all because of you. - Sadly missed by Patricia, Buddy, grandchildren Ken, Damian and Lisa & Great grandchildren

I sometimes think I see you, As I walk along the street, Sometimes I hear you call me, As I’m drifting off to sleep, Always I want to tell you, Of all the things I’ve done, Or as I listen to the words, Of a song that you have sung, Often I feel so sad, That the tears just start to flow, It’s then I really miss you, More than anyone can know, Sometimes I feel so lonely, And shed some silent tears, I seem to hear you whisper, Don’t worry I am here, I tell you that I miss you, More with each passing day, Again I hear you whisper, I am never far away. - Always loved and remembered by your loving wife May and your daughters Angela & Lisa and sons Sean and Alan, sons-in-law Jimmy and Gary and daughter-in-law Jacqui and grandchildren and great grandchildren

2ND ANNIVERSARY NOEL COLFER

In loving memory of Noel Colfer, late of Larchville whose 2nd anniversary occurs on the 24th of September. Noel’s anniversary Mass will take place in Br. Edmund Rice Chapel, Mount Sion on Thursday 20th September at 7pm.

When tomorrow starts without me, And I’m not here to see, If the sun should rise and find, Your eyes all filled with tears for me, I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We didn’t get to say. I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, And each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too, But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand, And said my place was ready, In Heaven far above, And that I’d have to leave behind, All those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye, For all my life I’d always thought, I didn’t want to die, I had so much to live for, And so much yet to do, It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you. I thought of all the yesterdays, The good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had, If I could relive yesterday, I thought just for a while, I’d say goodbye and kiss you, And maybe see you smile. But then I fully realised, That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of me, And when I thought of worldly things, That I’d miss come tomorrow, I thought of you and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow, But when I walked through Heaven’s gates, I felt so much at home, When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne. - From your loving wife Teresa

Ne never looked for praise, He was never one to boast, He just went on quietly working, For the ones he loved the most, His dreams were seldom spoken, His wants were very few, And most of the time his worries, Went unspoken too, He was there a firm foundation, Through all the storms of life, A sturdy hand to hold on to, In times of stress and strife, A true friend we could turn to, When times were good or bad, One of our greatest blessings, That man that we called Dad. - From Alan, David, Jean, Neil and Miriam, and partners and grandchildren Ciara, Cillian, Sam, Alex, James & Art

How do I put on paper, The feelings I have inside, Of a broken hearted daughter, Who has missed you since you died, Lonely is the home without you, Life is not the same, Gone is the mother I loved so dear, Silent a voice I long to hear, I miss you Mam no words can tell, Your voice, your smile, Your love as well, I miss the way you loved me, I know how much you cared, In our special times together, And everything we shared, You showed in your thoughtful ways, I could see it in your face, In your loving ways that tell me, No one could take your place, Distance takes us far apart, And darkens my today, I have to keep remembering, You’re just a thought away, I know you are watching from above, I feel your presence and sense your love, The treasured memories I have of you, Will live with me my whole life through, A Mass, a prayer is all I can give, And these you shall have, As long as I live. - Loving you always, forgetting you never, your heartbroken daughter Mary, son-in-law Eric and grandaughter Donna Could you come back and stay with us a while, I want to hear your voice, And see your smile, I want to hold you tight, And never let you go,

For Mam, You gave me everything you had Your time, your love & care, You never asked for anything And you were always there, Your needs were simple Your wants were few, If your family were happy So were you, A heart of gold, a life so true, Love and respected by all you knew. Father in heaven hear my prayer, Look after my Mam with love and care, A prayer each night keeps me in touch, With a Mam I miss so very much. I think of you in silence, I talk about you too, I have some lovely memories, but I wish I still had you. - From your son Pat, your daughter-in-law Helen and your grandson Adam They say there is a reason, they say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, will change the way we feel, For no one knows the heartache that lies behind our smiles, No one know how many times we have broken down and cried, Gone from home that smiling face, those cheerful happy days, We want to tell you something, so there won’t be any doubt, You’re so wonderful to think of, but so hard to be without. - From your loving son Jonathan, daughter-in-law Mary and grandchildren Jonathan Jnr, Jamie, Shane, Darragh, Aaron and grand daughter Cassie I feel lost in so many ways, You are not here today, But I will never forget you, And I know I have been blessed, To have you as my mother, Because you were the best. - Sadly missed by your son Gary, daughter-in-law Ann and grandchildren Casey and Jake

Noel Hunt doubled the Waterford lead on 72 minutes when Rory Feely whipped in a rightwing cross that wasn’t dealt with by the Bray defence and after Hunt controlled the ball superbly, he hammered a rightfooted shot past keeper Mark O’Connor from deep inside the penalty area. Ger Pender took advantage of a rare mistake in the Blues defence two minutes later, but his low left-footed shot was saved by Niall Corbet before Gavan Holohan should have added his name to the scoresheet on 85 minutes, but he headed a Stanley Aborah free kick over the bar.
