"The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory"
A mother and baby camel are talking one day when the baby camel asks, "Mom, why have I got these huge three toed feet?" The mother replies, "Well son, when we trek across the desert your toes will help you to stay on top of the soft sand." "OK," said the son. A few minutes later the son asks, "Mom, why have I got these great long eyelashes?" "They are there to keep the sand out of your eyes on the trips through the desert." "Thanks Mom," replies the son.
After a short while, the son returns and asks, "Mom, why have I got these great big humps on my back??" The mother, now a little impatient with the son replies, "They are there to help us store water for our long treks across the desert, so we can go without drinking for long periods." "That's great Mom, so we have huge feet to stop us sinking, and long eyelashes to keep the sand from our eyes and these humps to store water, but Mom..." "Yes, son?" "Why the heck are we in the zoo?"

An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%. The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"

A priest was preparing a man for his long journey into the night. Whispering firmly, the priest said, "Denounce the devil! Let him know how little you think of his evil."
The dying man said nothing. The priest repeated his order. Still the dying man said nothing. The priest asked, "Why do you refuse to denounce the devil and his evil?" The dying man said, "Until I know where I'm heading, I don't think I ought to aggravate anybody."
At a local coffee bar, a young woman was expounding on her idea of the perfect mate to some of her friends. "The man I marry must be a shining light amongst company. He must be musical. Tell jokes. Sing. And stay home at night!" An old granny overheard and spoke up, "Honey, if that's all you want, get a TV!�
To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot & love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot & not try to understand her at all.
Married men live longer than single men, but married men are a lot more willing to die.

He continued: “Of the 300 homes which completed upgrades, approximately €200,000 was saved in energy consumption. If this level of savings was applied to all Irish homes the total savings would be €1bn per annum. Monitoring of energy consumption of 100 houses has shown some startling results. Electricity wasted by leaving appliances on standby could save €35 per home. If this was applied to all houses in Ireland this would equate to annual energy costs savings of €56m.
EU Members States will eventually face fines if they fail to comply with the new Directive, which is aimed at driving energy efficiency improvements in households, industries and transport sectors. An estimated one million Irish buildings will be required to undergo energy upgrades by 2020 as part of compliance with the Directive and the National Energy Retrofit Programme.

New Jobs Initiative For Borrisokane Entertainment At The Source Since February 2012, Borrisokane Community Forum has been working on creating jobs, cutting the cost of living, raising revenue, increasing activity and promoting Borrisokane. Borrisokane Community College's canteen became the focus point for last Thursday's local Job Fair, a joint initiative between Borrisokane Community Forum and Borrisokane LocalSwitch Association. Local members of the public were invited to attend an informal evening that would allow discussions to happen which would result in the creation of these much needed jobs in Borrisokane and the local area. North Tipperary LEADER Partnership, North Tipperary Enterprise Board, Shannon Development, local FAS personnel and Gurteen College were all on hand to provide further information and assistance. 9 potential new business enterprises were identified, and one person (Community Enterprise Developer) allocated to each initiative to investigate further and promote this idea. Presentations were made at the start of the meeting of these ideas and people were then invited to sit at the table of the idea that most appealed to them. An extra 10th table was made available to those who, although were interested in the 9 initiatives, had their own idea that they felt needed to be explored further. In excess of 100 people attended on the night, with apologies and expressions of interest from several parties who were unable to be there. Interested parties grouped together and there was a fantastic buzz in the room, with genuine motivation to get businesses up and running. People with various levels of expertise shared knowledge, resources and contacts on the night and future meetings will be held regarding the 9 initiatives which were, namely: 1. Forestry/Woodland Co-op, 2. Community Supported Vegetable farm, 3. Local Food Sales Co-op, 4. Community Composting Site, 5. Recycling Shop, 6. Tool & Car Share Co-op, 7. Asset Management Club, 8. Energy-Saving Housing retrofits and 9. Hostel At the ideas table, other potential projects were discussed. These included:
and healthcare units in the town. The restoration of a Workhouse, that could be used as a community and youth building. Potential tourism from sporting events, providing accommodation and itineraries for groups from America and abroad. Community home-baking potential. Office Hub. Each individual project will be researched further as to its viability and recommendations will be made. On the basis of these recommendations, within one month, two projects will be established. Derry O Donnell was announced as the Local Catalyst for the area and will facilitate the growth of the enterprises at the early stages of development. This will involve arrangement of training, finance, contracts, grant aid and other activities to facilitate a quick launch for these new enterprises. This initiative has been recognised by Duncan Stewart (RTE Television presenter - 'Eco Eye' and 'About the House'). He is proposing to film these two projects shortly for his upcoming 'Eco Eye' programme, to be aired in January/February. This unique selfhelp approach to job creation can be replicated in any town or village in Ireland and Duncan Stewart will be helping us to promote this. The people of Borrisokane are no longer prepared to take a back seat and wait for things to happen in their town. With CSO figures showing the unemployment figures in the town (for males) increasing from 9% in 2006 to 29% in 2011, something had to be done. Gathering like minded people together on the night was a great starting point to go about addressing local problems with local solutions. For those who were not able to make the Jobs Fair on the night, results of the recommendations will be made available very shortly online www.localswitch.ie/Borrisokane. Using a unique self-help approach to improve and promote Borrisokane and neighbouring areas, we can start to realise the true potential of its resources.

Guerilla Days in Ireland – The Tom Barry story
Lambert Puppet Theatre presents Snow White & Bosco
Admired by many, feared by the British Army, loved by the people he led. Tom Barry, legendary Commander of the famous West Cork Flying Column survived the War of Independence to tell his incredible story. Barry led a volunteer army in a hide-and-seek campaign of Guerilla warfare matching wits against an enemy of overwhelming strength and power. In his memoir he gave a gripping account of the attack. It was so vivid that it subsequently became something of a handbook for guerilla warfare, and Che Guevara reportedly carried a copy. Guerilla Days in Ireland is Tom Barry's thrilling firsthand account of the struggle for independence in County Cork, the Rebel County.
The Lambert Puppet Theatre will be entertaining audiences of all ages at The Source Arts Centre Sunday 7 October. This will be a magnificent family day out with enchanting puppets telling the magical story of ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The highlight for many will be the nostalgic appearance of the legendary Bosco who is still a firm favourite with younger children and will make a welcome appearance during the show. Suitable for children aged 3 to 8 years.
Neil Pearson has adapted and directed this play and has remained faithful to the book. For those who haven't read the book, this is a dynamic piece of theatre. The cast and director have managed to bring a legend alive on stage, along with a whole flying column’s worth of men. Guerilla Days in Ireland is simply a must see play.

In spite of over 90% awareness that the analogue switchover is due to happen, some viewers have lingering doubts that the service will be switched off, as planned, on 24 October. There is now near universal awareness of the SAORVIEW service with most viewers now understanding what they need to do to make the switch. However, some viewers seem happy to leave taking action to the last minute, mistakenly believing that they may have more time than they actually do. Mary Curtis, Director of Digital Switchover, commented: From time to time at some of our events and roadshows we encounter people who don’t really seem convinced that the analogue service will actually be shut down on that date. I can absolutely assure you that the analogue service will be permanently shut down at 10.00am on 24 October and any viewer who is not ready for digital by then will face a blank screen. Close to 200,000 households across the country have already made the switch to SAORVIEW and are enjoying the benefits of the new service All you need is a SAORVIEW Approved settop-box or television connected to the aerial to begin to receive SAORVIEW.
70% of those surveyed have a strong understanding of what they need to do to switch to SAORVIEW and 78% understand that not taking action in households with aerials, will result in loss of service. Nonetheless, many seem resolved to leave making the switch until much closer to the final deadline There really are no advantages to waiting to make the switch and indeed some of the best bargains on TVs and set-top-boxes may well be gone. We know from the experience of other countries that many householders leave getting ready right to the deadline. As a result they may end up facing a stock shortage or not being able to purchase the model they had originally wanted. While there is choice and good availability of stock, those who prepare early will likely get the best deals. Householders with SKY or UPC will be unaffected by the digital switchover. Most of those who have yet to make the switch are older, living in rural areas, and often in lone households. Some of these people find making technology change, however simple, offputting.

Counselling Depression
(Continued from last issue)
At this point I have said most of what I want to say about depression, and I hope that some of it has helped you. I would like to end this series of articles by some reference to counselling and therapy as a way of dealing with depression. The counsellor is not an expert, and must use his own experience and educate himself on human distress. I consider this an ethical matter. By understanding human distress, and in this case depression, the counsellor has a good chance of standing in the depressed persons shoes. It is not easy to counsel a depressed person. The very nature of depression is hopelessness, and when they come in desperation to be ‘fixed’, the counsellor has to find a way through the dark clouds that envelop their unfortunate clients. Una O’Farrell, in her lovely book Courage to change. The counselling Process puts this well on p.121 of that book: ‘Depression in a client can be very difficult to tolerate. We can feel helpless without pills or potions, and it is often difficult to go on believing that we have anything of value to offer in the face of hopelessness. The phrase that I use to reassure myself is ‘Trust in the process’, because theoretically I fully subscribe to the belief that listening to, accepting and staying with a client is in itself therapeutic’. Perhaps you or your family are wondering what type of counsellor you might attend to have depression treated. I have to say to you that there are thousands of articles on this. There seems to be intense competition between different counselling types claiming success in the treatment of depression. Before you abandon this article in alarm, please be assured that I am not going to explain any of these therapies. Professor Mick Cooper in his book Essential Research Findings in counselling and Psychotherapy. The Facts are Friendly and other writers have examined every conceivable aspect of counselling and read hundreds of studies to come to their conclusions, which I will give you, and then you can make up your own mind. Basically the following seems to be true. Despite many contrary claims there is no real difference in the effectiveness of any model of counselling in the treatment of depression. There are a number of fundamental pointers that you may find useful as you consider choosing a counsellor. First of all therapy is concerned with people, not conditions, complaints or disorders. The relationship between the depressed person and the counsellor is very

important, the training and skill of the counsellor is important, the use of particular techniques has some importance, but the most important is the willingness and optimism of the depressed person to work at healing himself as he allows the counsellor to journey with him on that painful journey. In other words the client has a greater impact than the counsellor or according to Mick Cooper the client is the best facilitator of an effective outcome. Disappointing for counsellors, yes! Some researchers hold that a combination of therapy and antidepressants are the most effective way to heal depression, but recent research does not altogether agree with this. A further conclusion of research is that the longer the person stays in therapy the more beneficial the results. I agree with this, but the cost can be prohibitive, unless the counsellor has a sliding scale of fees. I also agree with those writers who stress that empathy is a really important element in counselling. This means entering into the thoughts and feeling of the depressed person and experiencing them as if they were the counsellor’s own. Empathy focuses on the person and seeks to restore power, and fits well with crisis counselling as a depressed person discloses suicidal ideation, and allows the counsellor to experience the anxiety and pain as if it were his own. By living in the moment with the client, the counsellor will not miss any markers of suicide lethality Jim O’Shea works as a counsellor from Furze, Thurles. Ph.087-8211009 www.jimoshea.net.
