Miss Beatrice, The church organist, was in her eighties and had never been married. She was admired for her sweetness and kindness to all. One afternoon the priest came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea. As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young priest noticed a cute glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the water floated, of all things, a condom!

When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The priest tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and he could no longer resist. 'Miss Beatrice', he said, 'I wonder if you would tell me about this?' Pointing to the bowl. 'Oh, yes,' she replied, 'Isn't it wonderful? I was walking through the park a few months ago and I found this little package on the ground. The directions

said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease. Do you know I haven't had the flu all winter.'

When my three-year-old son opened the birthday gift from his grandmother, he discovered a water pistol. He squealed with delight and headed for the nearest sink. I was not so pleased. I turned to mam and said, "I'm surprised at you. Don't you remember how we used to drive you crazy with water guns?" Mam smiled and then replied, "OH YES! I do remember."

There was once a wife so jealous that when her husband came home one night and she couldn't find hairs on his jackets she yelled at him, "Great, so now you're cheating on me with a bald woman!" The next night, when she didn't smell any perfume, she yelled again by saying, "She's not only bald, but she's too cheap to buy any perfume!"

a trio that makes a mighty sound. This special evening at The Source Arts Centre on Saturday 17th November will celebrate that sound. An intimate, warm and uplifting night not to be missed, advance booking advised.

This amazing group of musicians, Sonny Condell, Robbie Overson and Philip King remain true to their eclectic musical roots, they are nourished by tradition, translate and deconstruct it, and transmit an individual musical experience for capacity audiences whenever they choose to perform. The Album is their first in over 20 years, and includes a new version of Philip King’s ‘Fear’ and an instrumental by Robbie Overson, among other new tracks.

‘Three decades equals a remarkable repertoire in Scullion's world, most of it drawn from the creative genius of Condell, whose subtle lyricism and matchless melody lines bear scant kinship to anyone else on the planet.’ The Irish Times

The music and songs of Sonny Condell are the foundation of the unique Scullion sound. His artistry is the creative beating heart of the trio,

Not only will your guests finally get to taste the gorgeous creation they've been eyeing throughout your reception, it is a classic wedding moment, up there with the first kiss and first dance, that no one wants to miss.

look forward to, well, cake on your face, we suggest a little heart-toheart with your one and only beforehand, to avoid that first marital spat. Saving The Cake:

If well wrapped in plastic, your cake can survive that first year of marriage -- a delicious reminder of your special day. Remember to remove all flowers, stems, leaves and other garnish, and make room in the freezer. When your first anniversary Cake Face: rolls around, taste your wedding day Although you may prefer not to have all over again. Of course saving it your perfectly made-up face smashed doesn’t work with all types of cake if into that first piece of wedding cake, you decide to go for a non traditional like it or not, it has become type of cake. Check with your cake somewhat of a tradition. If you don't supplier beforehand.

Tipperary GAA Scene By Ger Ryan PRO Tipperary Win All Ireland Intermediate Hurling Final Congratulations to the Intermediate hurlers and management on their 3-13 to 1-17 win over Kilkenny to secure the title for the first time since 2000 after what turned out to be a tension filled and exciting second half. Although Tipp lead by 12 points at half time after playing with the wind, Kilkenny came right into the game in the second half. A great penalty save from James Logue near the end kept Tipperary in front and they held on for a deserved victory. Special mention goes to Mikey Heffernan of Nenagh Eire Og who has now won All Ireland medals at 4 different grades of hurling – minor, under 21, intermediate and senior. We thank the management team led by Mick Ryan of Fethard which also included coach, Michael Ferncombe of Holycross Ballycahill and selectors, Eamonn O’Dwyer of Arravale Rovers and Sean O’Meara of Shannon Rovers, and the backroom team for all their excellent work preparing the team. Electric Ireland All Ireland Minor Hurling Championship Good luck to the Tipperary minor hurlers and management team for the All Ireland minor hurling championship final against Dublin which will be played in Croke Park next Sunday at 1.15pm.

successive year in the final, they were defeated by Galway last year. Tipperary are seeking their nineteenth title and first since 2007 while Dublin are seeking their fifth title and first since 1965. Tipperary have defeated Kerry, Waterford, Clare and Galway en route to the final. Dublin lost to Wexford in their opening Leinster championship game but subsequently went on to defeat Carlow, Kilkenny and Wexford to win the Leinster championship and Clare in the All-Ireland semi-final. The game will be refereed by Colm Lyons of Cork.

Tipperary County Board would like to thank Declan Ryan, Tommy Dunne and Michael Gleeson for all their good work managing the senior hurling team over the last two years. It should not be forgotten that they led the team to two Munster championships and their record should not be judged solely on performances against Kilkenny. They have all served the county well for many years and we look forward to their continued involvement in the GAA in the county. We wish them and their families well for the future. A committee led by County Chairman, Sean Nugent, will now select a new management team for recommendation to County Board. This process will take at least 3 to 4 weeks and there will be no further comment from the Board or the Appointments Committee until the selection process is completed.

If you are self employed or considering starting your own business, talk to the Enterprise Board about training, mentoring and financial support. If you are self employed or considering starting your own business, talk to the Enterprise Board about training, mentoring and financial support. In tough trading conditions, your local Enterprise Board may be able to assist the growth, development or to sustain a business in difficulty. While their primary focus is manufacturing and internationally traded services, the Enterprise Board provides a wide range of services and supports that are not confined to these categories of entrepreneurs. County Enterprise Board is running a series of training programmes over the coming months and owners/managers seeking to improve the performance of their business or in the early stages of startup can avail of supports at modest or no cost. Of interest to those with a new idea will be a half day workshop titled ‘How to Identify, Research & Develop New Business Ideas’. This workshop is specifically designed for individuals, SME's and microenterprises who have an idea for a new product or service and don't know what to do next. It will also suit people looking for opportunities without a firm business idea. This engaging and practical workshop will teach you how to get through the product development process. A booking fee of €20 will apply for the workshop and participants will have the option to meet with the trainer on

a one-to-one basis after the event for a nominal cost. Start Your Own Business (Level 5 FETAC Accredited). This programme will be of interest to new start-ups or those considering setting up their own business. The course runs one night per week over 10 weeks. On completion participants will know how to write a business plan, have learned about the legal structures available to set up a business, identified what market research is about and have learned about pricing, costing and budgeting. A participant fee of €60 applies and fee exemptions may apply to those registered as unemployed. A Pre-Self Employment Boot Camp for couples will be delivered over a Friday evening and full day Saturday. Self-employment/running your own enterprise is a big decision – you need a good business idea (not necessarily a “great idea”), a head for numbersespecially for cash; a range of business skills; personal discipline plus huge commitment. It will be exhilarating when you make those big sales but it will also be a lonely road full of self-doubt when things don’t quite go to plan! Your new business will be a demanding mistress needing your attention 24/7 to get it up and running. This Pre-Self Employment Boot Camp provides prospective new business promoters with a “short, sharp dose of the reality of self-employment and running one’s

own business”. Too often people get into business without a full understanding of what’s involved, thinking it’s enough to have a good business idea. It’s not! The Programme will help you see what it will mean to be self-employed/run a small enterprise. You will come away with a clear picture of the likelihood of your success in self-employment. Booking fee of €40 per couple attending. ‘Accelerate – Driving Your Business Forward’, a Management Development Programme that has been designed by the Network of County & City Enterprise Boards will be repeated again this year.

The programme will commence in October and run into early 2013. Participation on this programme will be preceded by a financial evaluation of your business. A half day Introduction to Social Media Workshop will be of interest to individuals interested in utilising ICT to grow sales and enhance the profile of their business utilising web applications such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Blogging etc. seminar will be followed by a number of training workshops which will be designed to meet the needs of participants. Their location will also be dictated by areas of demand. An Energy Reduction/Cost Saving Seminar will be of interest to existing business owner/managers who need to improve their bottom line through further cost savings in the area of energy. This seminar will be held in Thurles and can be repeated in Nenagh if there is demand.

Templemore College of Further Education In a move to clarify its role and location, St Sheelan’s College, Templemore will in future be known as “Templemore College of Further Education”. Principal Dr. Noel Colleran outlined the rationale behind the rebranding move when he explained that the aim is to build on the stellar reputation of St. Sheelan’s College but seek to present the college in a more contemporary way. By building the geographical location into the identity of the college it is hoped to be more clearly identified with the local community. The Board of Management, that formally ratified this new title at it’s May meeting, is confident that this new approach will raise the appeal of the college among prospective students who seek to gain for themselves a higher orbit of opportunity. The newly branded Templemore College of Further Education has been one of the good news stories of the county over the past decade and the success of the college has had significant benefits for the town of Templemore. Students are travelling to the college from as far away as Adare, Kildare, Tullamore, Banagher, Cashel, and Urlingford. Many are staying in accommodation in the town. In addition, having so many adults travel

into the town every day creates a lot of additional revenue for local businesses. Rebranding to include the name of the town will foster a greater pride of affiliation with the local community. Templemore College of Further Education is offering a vast array of courses including Media Production, Tourism and Travel, Creative Media, Landscape and Design, Greenkeeping Hairdressing, Beauty Therapy, Complementary Therapy, Interior Design, Architectural Design, Security Studies, Childcare, Psychology, as well as a wide variety of business, secretarial and computer courses. As a college for adult students, Templemore College of Further Education is not like a school. The atmosphere is one of partnership between students and teachers which embodies respect for the different circumstances, interests, experiences and backgrounds of each student. To this end, all courses are modular so that students can tailor courses to their individual needs and can pursue them at their own pace. If you have been considering returning to education why not collect a brochure at the college or phone for details on 0504 31007. Visit www.tcfe.ie

Anti Eviction Taskforce Launch Tipperary Group An independent group of home owners that decided to band together and unite in a concerted effort to protect all homes against repossession has launched a nationwide campaign to establish groups in every county in Ireland including Tipperary The group, calling itself the AntiEviction Taskforce (AET) has grown in numbers at a tremendous pace. A high profile case in Limerick which has gained international attention has highlighted the issue. Father of five, Seamus Sherlock, who famously chained himself outside ESB headquarters in protest at their treatment of people who had fallen into arrears and subsequently set up the organisation 'life after Debt' to assist others struggling with debt, received an eviction notice some weeks ago. He sent out a call for help and was inundated with offers of assistance from people willing to assist him and his children who have barricaded themselves into their farm. Packages of food, living essentials and even portacabins for volunteers to sleep in have been donated. A 24 hour security watch has been set up on the farm to prevent the eviction.

On their website the AET state that they "will turn out in numbers to offer a physical presence to homes under immediate threat and will have legal observers at each attempted eviction to document, record, offer advice and act upon any issues that are considered dubious or illegal". The AET work together with the People for Economic Freedom who also take direct action and campaign against evictions stating that they are unconstitutional. They recently assisted an 80 year old woman in Blanchardstown arriving just after the Sheriff had left and a locksmith had changed the locks. Both groups update their activities on Facebook and publish their campaigns on YouTube

HypnoSolutions – Achievement Made Simple HypnoSolutions opened earlier this year in Templemore. The Clinic is run by myself, Miriam Dunne Adv.Dip Hypnosis. I have many years’ experience with Hypnosis having used it to have 3 wonderful birthing experiences and to then study it and begin a career in Hypnosis therapy. Many people have misconceptions about Hypnosis mainly because they have seen stage shows, however, Hypnosis is not mind control it only works on people who want it to work. Hypnosis is a wonderful relaxing therapy that can afford change in the sub-conscious mind. There are no side effects and therefore it is suitable for everyone. There are no tricks to the process either, you are absolutely aware of everything I say during hypnosis as you are in a heightened state of awareness. The effectiveness of the process is up to you, i.e. if you have the positive mental attitude that you will accept my suggestions you will achieve change. Simple as that, it really is. With hypnosis we encourage desired changes and enhance mental and physical wellbeing. If you do not accept the suggestions you will have no change. At HypnoSolutions I encourage desired changes and enhance mental and physical wellbeing. Safe and effective hypnotherapy techniques are used for Weight Loss, Quit Smoking, HypnoBirthing, Pain

Management, Insomnia, Stress Management, Habit Breaking (teeth grinding) and Phobias (fear of flying, spiders etc), to mention but a few. Sessions are tailor made to each client so that change is immediate and lasting. After your initial session you will receive a CD for positive relaxation, for use at home, to re-enforce the suggestions you receive at the clinic. So how does Hypnosis affect change in the subconscious mind and create new patterns of behaviour? Simply the Hypnotherapist is aiming to help the client perceive things in a different and more helpful way - a reframe, in therapy jargon. Phobias and Panic Attacks are a good example. When somebody has a phobia, their subconscious mind has labelled an object or situation as lifethreatening. In Hypno-Therapy we reframe that object or situation in a more realistic way, as something that is inherently safe, or at least nonthreatening. To learn more about how I can help you improve your overall health and wellbeing please feel free to contact me and make an appointment for your free consultation and positive relaxation session. Then you can make up your own mind on this wonderful therapy. It will be just the beginning of the integrated approach to health and wellness provided at HypnoSolutions, Templemore ph. 086 838

Counselling Depression

(Continued from last issue)

By Jim O’Shea

Yet, I suppose depression has not played a big part in my life, although my therapist once told me that I had a low level of ongoing anxiety in the context of my job as a school Principal. That did not surprise me, and I was glad to hear the words ‘low level’! I’m not sure if this translated into a low level of chronic depression. I think it did, and an American clinical psychologist Joseph Carver is correct when he argues that ongoing stress is likely to lead to depression. Sometimes, in my own case I could not put my finger on why I felt a low level of depression or anxiety. But when I look back I realise that I overworked, carrying some remnant of grief within me, and gradually over the years a sense of fatigue and low energy set in. But I worked hard had pleasurable hobbies but eventually ran out of steam! Perhaps, I was merely acting in accordance with Western culture seeing depression as a weakness, and using what some researchers have described as described as greater willpower and greater personal effort. I ran what I think was a very good school, was indefatigable from morning to night, and managed 612 students, 44 teachers, and other ancillary workers with a good measure of efficiency, and greatly pleased most of the parents of the students.

To make matters worse I had taken that job within two years of my youngest child being killed in a road accident in 1990. That tragedy resulted in major depression for me. The book that I wrote with the help of my family (when a Child Dies. Footsteps of a Grieving Family) outlines some of that depression as a constant state of unease, no peace, fear and terror, and living in a different internal world. The absence of depression to me is being integrated in the ‘normal’ world. For a short time I only had a tentative connection with this world. When I was teaching I could hear my voice as if it were at a distance. There was no desire to live; no enthusiasm for getting up in the morning. The joy was gone from my life. I would have preferred to be dead than to carry this empty feeling throughout the day. I was exhausted, dejected, gloomy, unhappy, and shrouded in pessimism. I could not shake off this overhanging cloud that blighted my life. Outwardly, however, I smiled and worked, and carried this pain with me into my new job in 1992.

I had an angiogram in 2004, and the doctor remarked on the amount of adrenalin surrounding my heart. In effect I had one of the hidden physical symptoms of anxiety. At the same time, most Principals will admit that it is a difficult job, and many end up worn out by it. Of course, I spent some of my time training as a counsellor at that stage, and this training is an emotionally difficult experience. I suppose the combination of this training and my job was too much for me.

Jim O’Shea’s new book called Abuse, about domestic violence,

Ultimately that feeling left, and I am immensely happy in my work as a counsellor and as a writer. Writing is almost therapeutic to me. What a lovely way to enter this later stage of my life. The lesson is that we can emerge from the most awful traumas But, I was always worried about every and depression, take up the reins of conceivable aspect of the school, and our lives and carry on. about how people viewed the school (and by implication myself). Sometimes I felt burdened. The fact Jim O’Shea works as a counsellor that I could not escape (because of from Furze, Thurles. Ph.087-8211009 Departmental regulations), nor would www.jimoshea.net. Jim O’Shea’s I admit to wanting to escape, meant book ‘When a child dies. Footsteps of that I stayed with the job for 12 years, a Grieving Family’ is published by and eventually had to retire in poor Veritas. The royalties from this book health.
