Damn. My youth is fading before my eyes. So many deaths this year. I LOVED Laugh In. RIP.
Stay in Drugs. Eat your School. Don't do Vegetables.
RIP, Arte.
I also never missed Laugh In, Arte's characters were probably my favorites.
A faulty hypothesis forming:
A German scientist using Iranian physics and French mathematics.
I watched it because Daddy was boogers about it.
I was watching some Laugh In episodes the other day. I'm not sure I've watched it since it was originally on. 90, that's pretty good.
He made a dirty old man and a Nazi funny.
Stay in Drugs. Eat your School. Don't do Vegetables.

What's in this week's boxes?
Apple Cider
Apple Cider Donuts
Lettuce Head
Salad Greens
Brussel Sprouts
Cauliflower: Cheddar, Purple, or White
Winter Squash
Storage + Handling
Apples should be kept uncovered or in a perforated plastic bag in the refrigerator. Warm temperatures will cause apples to lose their crispness and flavor, so if they are kept out of the refrigerator, make sure it is in a cool, ventilated place far from direct sunlight. To prevent cut apples from turning brown, sprinkle with lemon juice or soak them in a bowl of ½ cup water and 2 tbsp lemon juice.
Apple Cider
Storage + Handling
Hurrah for the official state beverage of New Hampshire! Applecrest's apple cider is pressed here on the farm each week from apples culled from our very orchards. To make our cider, we wash and grind our apples into a mash, then wrap this applesauce-like mash in cloth and place it on wooden racks. A press then squeezes the layers together, pressing the juice out and into a waiting tank for bottling. Our cider is unfiltered, unsweetened, and unpasteurized – although we do add a smidgen of potassium sorbate (an odorless, flavorless, colorless preservative) to extend the cider's shelf life. The sweetness of the apple cider depends on the sugar content and variety of apples that were pressed that day. The natural yeasts found in the cider will cause it to ferment over time, but it should last for a few weeks.
Storage + Handling
Keep unwashed lettuce in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a week. If you want to prep the lettuce for dinner later, the gentlest method of washing is to place the entire head in a bowl of cold water and gently swish to get the dirt out. You may have to do this a few times with fresh water if you find a lot of dirt settling at the bottom. Then rinse and slice the head at the base to allow the leaves to separate. Roll the leaves in paper towels and place them in a plastic bag or container in the refrigerator. If you have a salad spinner, by all means spin the leaves dry. Wet greens wilt quickly, so be sure they are good and dry before refrigerating them.
Salad Greens
Storage + Handling
Store unwashed salad greens in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. When you are ready to eat the greens, wash them in a bowl of cold water to let dirt settle to the bottom. Once all of the dirt is removed, rinse and dry. Put them in a bowl covered with a wet paper towel in the refrigerator until serving time. Enjoy your greens within three or four days. Salads are a great addition to any meal, but are also good for tacos and sandwiches.
Brussel Sprouts
Storage + Handling
For all of you Brussel Sprout naysayers out there, give these little cabbages another try! They are super nutritious and will reward your palate with a sweet, nutty flavor. Plus, they are Farmer Todd's favorite vegetable.
Store your brussel sprouts unwashed in a closed plastic bag in the veggie bin and don't forget about them. Their flavor is sweetest at the time of harvest, so try to eat them right away.
When ready to enjoy, rinse the sprouts in cool water and remove any loose or discolored leaves. The key to yummy brussels sprouts is cooking them enough, but not too much. As with full-sized cabbage, overcooking sprouts produces an unpleasant, sulfurous smell. Ideally, sprouts should be tender enough to yield when pierced with a fork, but not so soft that the fork sinks right in.
To roast brussels sprouts, first boil the sprouts until just tender, 5 to 10 minutes, depending on size. Drain and rinse in cool water to stop the cooking, then coat lightly in olive oil, place in a roasting pan and roast in a 375-degree oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Brussel sprouts can also be steamed or sliced and stir-fried.
Storage + Handling
Look at that color! If your kids weren't interested in cauliflower before, we think they will be now. Do they think the cauliflower will change color when it's cooked? Make an experiment out of cooking together. Cheddar cauliflower contains about 25 times more Vitamin A than the white variety. It is also creamier when cooked, making it a nice choice for serving mashed. It is perhaps the most delicious of all of the cauliflower available on the market. The purple variety is high in tannins and its color comes from anthocyanin, a flavanoid packed with antioxidants. And remember, all types of cauliflower contain most of the same great nutritional benefits found in broccoli: vitamin C, protein, and iron!
Wrap dry, unwashed cauliflower loosely in plastic and store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to a week, but will taste sweetest if used within a few days. To eat, trim off the leaves and any brown spots. Rinse the cauliflower and cut out the cone-shaped core at the base using a small paring knife. Stop there if you plan to cook it whole. Otherwise, break it by hand or knife into florets. Serve cauliflower raw on vegetable trays with dip or add cauliflower to roasts, soups, or curries. Steaming and blanching are the best methods to preserve the most flavor and nutrition. To blanch: place in salted boiling water for 3 minutes, cool under running water, and drain.
Winter Squash
Storage + Handling
Winter squash are cooked and eaten as a vegetable, but they are really a vining fruit. They are an excellent source of Vitamins A and B, plus full of dietary fiber, iron and beta carotene.
Winter squash are picked when their skins have hardened and are fully mature. This hard skin guarantees a long shelf life. Store your squash in a dark, well-ventilated area for up to two months. Wrap cut pieces in plastic and refrigerate up to five days.
Wash your squash well when ready to eat. The flesh can be removed from the skin before or after cooking (after is MUCH easier!), although if you plan to sauté the squash, we recommend removing the skin first. Use a sharp knife to cut away the skin and as well as any seeds and fibrous stringy parts inside the cavity. Slice the squash into equally-sized pieces and you are ready to sauté!
Squash is most-often baked whole or split lengthwise (removing seeds). Pierce whole squash in several places or roast halved squash, hollow side up or down, for 45-60 minutes. When it is roasted like this in dry heat, the sugars caramelize and sweeten the flesh, creating a delicious, buttery texture.
True green tomatoes come from heirloom stocks that produce a tart flavor. This particular variety sweetens with cooking and should not be eaten raw. Green tomatoes are often fried to attain a balance of tart-sweet taste or used in relishes. With care, mature green tomatoes will keep and ripen for about 4 to 6 weeks in the fall if you care to wait!
Mulled Apple Cider
Simmer 4 cups of apple cider with 4 cinnamon sticks and about 12 cloves for about 5 minutes – do not let it boil. Pour into 4 mugs, each with a cinnamon stick and a couple cloves.
Apple Cider-braised Cabbage
From Epicurious.com
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 2-pound head green cabbage, quartered, cored, thinly sliced
1/2 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Melt butter in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add cabbage and sauté until slightly wilted, tossing frequently, about 6 minutes. Stir in apple cider. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook until cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Uncover and simmer until almost all liquid in pot evaporates, about 3 minutes. Stir in vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
Brussel Sprouts au Gratin
From A Veggie Venture
Serves 8
2 pounds fresh Brussels sprouts, stem ends sliced off, outer layer of leaves removed, sprouts halved lengthwise through the core
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup panko or traditional bread crumbs
1/4 ounce fresh Parmesan, grated
1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat the oven to 425F. Toss the Brussels sprouts with the butter, salt and pepper. Arrange in a shallow baking dish just large enough for a generous single layer. (The sprouts do shrink while roasting so some overlap is good.) Roast for about 35 minutes (stirring well after 15, 25 and 35 minutes) until the sprouts are very nearly cooked through and brown in spots. Pour the cream over top and return to the oven for 5 – 10 minutes (stirring after 5 and 10 minutes) until cream thickens, coats the Brussels sprouts and darkens slightly. Remove from oven, switch oven to the broiler.
Mix topping ingredients and spread evenly over top. Place under broiler for 5 – 10 minutes until topping turns crisp and golden.
Roasted Cauliflower in Lemon-Tahini Sauce
From Vegetarian Times
1 large head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets
4 tsp. olive oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tahini (ground sesame paste, found in a jar)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
¼ tsp. salt
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds
Place oven rack in top position. Preheat oven to 425F.
Toss cauliflower with 2 teaspoons olive oil and season with salt. Spread on large cookie sheet and bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until cauliflower is fork-tender and slightly browned.
Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tsp. olive oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Sauté garlic in oil 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant. Stir in tahini, lemon juice, 5 tablespoons water and salt. Simmer over low heat 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Divide cauliflower among plates. Whisk sauce, then spoon over cauliflower. Sprinkle with parsley and sesame seeds, and serve with a sprinkling of paprika for color if you like.
Lettuce + Apple salad
1/2 cup apple cider or apple juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Dash ground nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste
2 apples cored and chopped
Head lettuce or salad greens
Optional: pomegranate seeds, chopped pecans, toasted pine nuts
In a large salad bowl, whisk dressing ingredients until blended. Chop apples into bite-sized pieces and place over salad greens or head lettuce. Dress salad just before serving. Add pomegranate seeds, chopped pecans or toasted pine nuts to make your salad truly hearty!
All the Best,

#AGFMakerMonday - February Feature!
February 06, 2019
Hi Makers,
Last year, we started a new way to feature your inspiring work that also gives you the opportunity to win our fabrics, but THE BEST PART is that we all get to know a little more about you! By encouraging makers to post their sewing projects using our fabrics via their social media using the hashtag #AGFMakerMonday, we get to see how talented you are and all the amazing work you all do! Once we decide on the winner for the month, the maker receives a feature here on our AGF Blog AND of course...they win A 20-PIECE FQ BUNDLE of our fabric, based on their personal preference.
Meet this month's featured maker, "Melanie Call!" Based out of Washington, she's a super mom and pharmacist by day, and a quilter by night. She calls herself a "total math and chemistry nerd," which definitely comes in handy when she's designing her quilts. Melanie loves to combine both "modern and traditional" designs, and "loves big block quilts, so the fabric can shine!" Check out her quilty skills and a special interview we did with her.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: SCSU
Last year, when no one from St. Cloud made the All-Hottie team, someone commented, "I guess SCSU is a bunch of uggos." I would argue that, on the whole, that's true, but there's a few glimmers of hope.
The Good
Matt Hartman has really stepped it up this year, and although he's probably not going to make the top Hottie list this year, he's still lookin' pretty good. Marty Mjelleli and David Carlisle did, too. I guess they don't like the term freshman at St. Cloud, possibly because of the "man" suffix, so they say "First Year." Well, "First Year" Ryan Peckskamp is also on the Good list.
The Bad
As always, there are People Who Look Like Famous People. Da Huskies have John Swanson, who reminds me of Steve from Sex and the City, and Ryan Lasch, who looks like Andy Gibb. Someone who no longer resembles a celebrity is Aaron Brocklehurst, who I once though looked like Jim Morrison. Alas, no more.
In the People Who Look Like Non-Famous People I Know category, Bobby Goepfert channels The Alleged Webmaster's current co-worker, who drunkenly promised to follow the Bulldogs this year in order to understand their greatness. This person also yelled "I HOPE DENVER WINS" at me after I yelled at him while listening to the second game of the WCHA first round playoffs this March.
I know MeanEGirl is dying inside because I didn't pick Casey Borer for the list, but how many times do I have to say, you can supply photographic evidence to support your cause. I just don't see it.
Ever have one of those facial tics where your eye twitches? Craig Gaudet had one during his picture. I think Andreas Nodl is trying to sell me a car that has "speed holes" in it and sawdust in the gas tank. Matt Stephenson is possibly a robot.
AJ Gale and Grant Clafton must have had a late night prior to picture day, and it shows. Justin Fletcher and Chris Anderson scare me.
Jon Ammerman, Garrett Raboin, Nate Raduns, and Gary Houseman were close to making the Good list. Andrew Gordon and Jake Weslosky confused me: are they hott and have a bad picture? Or nott? Something's not quite right. I wasn't confused at all about BJ O'Brien though. Definitely the Bad list. Count Nate Dey on the "Failed To Impress" list.
I think Michael Olson's birthdate has a typo. It should read 5/17/74, not 84.
The Ugly
Sweet Mother of Mercy, Dan Kronick is even more ugly than last year.

It's Heart Month, and no, we don't mean Valentine's day. February 14th may indeed bring with it flowers, cards and gifts for your loved ones, but this month is also an opportunity to reflect on the way you treat your heart, and to educate yourself on the ways you can improve your lifestyle to care for the amazing and precious organ that keeps us alive. American Heart Month are suggesting you wear red on Feburary 5th, whilst the British Heart Foundation are focussing on the small changes you can make to improve heart health and prevent heart disease.
What is Heart Disease?
There are many terms thrown around when discussing heart disease and heart conditions, so what do they all mean? Heart disease is sometimes used as another term for Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). This is the most prevalent of heart problems, causing 1 in every 7 deaths each year in the USA. There are several conditions that are all considered part of CVD, and most of them can be avoided or delayed by good lifestyle choices. However, heart disease is also used as an umbrella term for all problems people can develop with their heart. This includes hereditary and unavoidable issues like faulty valves, irregular heartbeats and a weak heart muscle. For heart month this year, however, both the UK and USA are focussing on the more common CVD conditions that are highly affected by your lifestyle and diet. CVD is essentially a restriction of the blood flow to and from the heart and around the body. This can be caused by a blood clot, but is usually caused by a build up of fatty deposits in your arteries and around the heart, causing the space for blood to flow through to become thinner, which in turn causes excess strain on the heart. If blocked off completely, you may experience a heart attack, where the heart stops pumping blood around the body. Blockages and build up of fat can happen in different places in the body, causing differerent CVD conditions:
- Coronary heart disease - the coronary arteries are the two main arteries supplying blood to and from the heart. If they become blocked, the heart struggles to function normally. Coronary heart disease is the most common form of heart disease worldwide, and is the leading cause of death for men and women, although it is more prevalent in men in general.
- Peripheral artertial disease - this condition involves a blockage or restriction of the arteries to the limbs, and can be recognised by pain when walking, which often worsend when you use your legs more, like when you climb the stairs
- Stroke - if an artery or blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked by fatty deposits or a blood clot, this stops oxygen and blood getting to the brain, resulting in a stroke. If you suspect someone of a stroke, it's important to get help as soon as possible as every minute changes the outcomes dramatically. Read up on the stroke symptoms to look out for and what to do, using the acronym FAST. Face, Arms, Speech, Time
5 Small changes you can make to prevent heart disease and heart complications
- Change your diet - A diet high in cholesterol, fat and sugar can all have a negative effect on your heart, as they clog your arteries, raise blood pressure and cause obesity which in turn puts more strain on your already struggling heart. A poor diet can also lead to type 2 diabetes, which dramatically raises your risk of heart problems, due to the excess sugar in your body as your pancreas struggles or fails completely to produce insulin and absorb the sugar in your diet
- Stop smoking - if you smoke, this can put immense pressure on your heart. Smoking raises blood pressure, increases blood clotting, causes fatty build up on the linings of your arteries, lowers your tolerance to exercise and even weakens the heart muscle overall. If you can cut down or quite smoking, it will have a huge impact on your health and lower the risks of heart disease significantly
- Exercise - it's recommended that we do 30 minutes exercise 5 days a week. However, try not to get hung up on the amount, especially if you've come from a place of doing no exercise at all. Try to do a little bit every day, and start building it up. Don't push yourself too far, but anything that gets your heart pumping a little faster is great
- 10 minute challenge - the British Heart Foundation are challenging everyone to take 10 minutes every day to either do some exercise, learn a new active skill or read up on the easy changes you could make in your life to protect your heart
- Cut down on alcohol - the recommended amount is 2-3 units per day for women, 3-4 for men. If you are exceeding this, you could be putting excess strain on your heart as drinking increases your blood pressure.
If you suspect any issues with your heart, or think you may be unwell, put your symptoms into the Isabel symptom checker:

Hello again! Sorry I've been MIA for the past weeks. Life has definitely caught up to me big time. Pretty much since the last time I was able to write, I started another class and have had a lot come up in the class I have been in since the beginning of the year. So, needless to say, I have been reading and writing quite a bit for the past month or so. It has been great for me because I enjoy writing so I really don't mind papers. I more have a problem of knowing when to stop writing. However, this has taken up all of my energy. I spend a lot of my free time doing homework. When I have time to finally write for my blog, I'm basically all written out. My mind is in such an academic mode that I can't begin to try write about me and my life. I really wanted to keep up with the blogs but I just wasn't able to and I'm sorry. Which brings me to my topic today. Sometimes, I mess up.
This thought and feeling was brought up by a situation at work. I messed up. Big time. Now, there was a few of us who should have caught the mistake we made but I took it personally as my role is to make sure things are right. It was a very difficult situation as my team and the client was upset. But, I was very upset. It was hard to deal with as someone with anxiety. So many thoughts went through my mind. What does my boss think of me? What are going to be the repercussions of this mistake? Am I actually good at my job? Do I deserve to be here? Am I adequate? It took a toll on me and it took me a while to come down and look at the situation.
After talking to my coworkers and friends, I realized that I am going to make mistakes. When I think back on the past few years, I have made A LOT of mistakes and I know that I will make a ton of mistakes in the future. We are only human. We mess up. It is as inevitable as death. The more I thought about it, I realized that I can't keep dwelling on the past and mistakes that I make. Other people are going to make mistakes too. While I understand that some mistakes are bigger than others, life can not be measured by how bad you mess up. If I can forgive others for the mistakes that they make, why am I not forgiving myself? It's not about how you fall, it's how you get back up over and over again. Accepting that you have messed up and learning from the experience can be one of the greatest skills one can have in life. I have started to make major life changes in my life that I will talk about in later blogs because it is time for me to bounce up and change for the better. The semester is almost done so hopefully, I'll be able to keep you updated on things that are going well in my life and how I am choosing my own path now.

We have put together some guides for students and parents, which we hope will find useful and informative. If you have questions please feel free to get in touch. Thank you.
A guide to GCSE options
GCSEs stand for General Certificate of Secondary Education and represent the culmination of formal education in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Traditionally, children begin GCSE preparation in Year 10 and complete examinations at the end of Year 11. On average, students take between 6 and 9 GCSEs.
Choosing your child's Secondary School
The amount of choice of secondary school you will enjoy is somewhat limited. It depends where you live and the nature of the schools in your local area. If many of the schools are over-subscribed in your area, then it is likely that your child will be allocated to the school dictated by your postcode.
Teenagers and exam pressures
We all deal with stress at some point in our lives, but not all stress is bad stress. Stress in moderation can make you more aware of your surroundings, and help keep you focussed and enable you do get more work completed. There is no dispute that all exams are stressful. It does not matter if it is a practical exam, like a driving test or a written exam, it is going to be a stressful time.
The new GCSE grading system
In September 2015 new Year 10 students in English and Maths started work on the new system of GCSEs. This moved from grading students from A*- G to 9 – 1. The first set of results were released for English and Maths in August 2017. Teachers and schools were aware of this change in 2013 and so moved to the new system with limited impact on the students.

2014. Game on.
Watching the sunset slide into the ocean in the last days of 2013 I've been allowing myself quiet times. Lying on a beach. Indulging in bad movies. Hanging out with lovely long time friends that aren't activists and not talking politics all the time. Thinking. Reflecting. And bracing.
2014 is going to be the most important year we have ever had. With thousands more clearly seeing the damage to be wrought by the Abbott government we will see the beginning of rapid growth of the social movement that we will need to build in order to win. It is going to set the scenes that will see the battle lines move out of the political arena and to the frontline for years to come. We may see people jailed in this country for speaking for environment and social justice. We are … Read More »
We won… six months on
Well it has been a long time coming, but we have finally launched the updated version of the Camp Walmadan booklet, complete with the 'WE WON' wrap around copy, with reflections and stories from the successful campaign to stop Woodside's proposed gas refinery on the Kimberley coast.
A huge shout out to our lovely and patient designer friend Lilia who did such a fab job and everyone who shared their stories… as well as those that didn't have a chance.
Celebration is important, and we wanted to make the resource available for everyone to share, but add in some positive stories – as we all know, wins like this don't come around every day.
It is timely as 'Heritage Fight' – the remarkable documentary of the Goolarabooloo people and Broome community is currently showing on NITV, and Part One is available for a … Read More »
Walking on country, coming home
I wanted to volunteer on the Lurujarri trail, near Broome for many reasons… to see friends, to walk the country I worked with others to save, to challenge myself physically, to hear the stories and connect to the living environment, and to acknowledge that I live on stolen land – and that it is necessary for all of us in similar positions to contribute in some way.
I have been thinking about what solidarity looks like, about what it means to be an ally to the original peoples of this country. It is as simple and hard as listening… and so much more. There is definitely more to write on this, but as I was thinking about it, I came across this new resource which looks wonderful.
So what is the Lurujarri trail?
You can read more about it here – the short … Read More »
Congratulations to the Broome community
Just last night we presented at the Melbourne Campaigners Network on the remarkable nonviolent direct action of the Broome community and traditional custodians against Woodside's proposed gas hub. Then found out an hour afterwards it looked like the community might have won – and the project was about to be scrapped. What an amazing outcome – will write more in coming days but it appears worth celebrating. Here is a bit more news from today – Woodside announcement – Local Campaigner Nik Wevers – Environs Kimberley – Sydney Morning Herald
The financial media will all report that this was a commercial decision. Yes, in large part, of course it was – but to ignore the significant disruption, the investor uncertainty, the lack of social license and the risk, challenges and increased costs faced by the Joint Venture Partners by the consistent … Read More »

Michael Matthews Moves into the Maglia RosaSat 10 May 2014
Svein Tuft started stage two of the Giro d'Italia in the maglia rosa. By stage end, Michael Matthews had pulled on the coveted pink jersey. Matthews, the sixth Australian to lead the Italian Grand Tour, only needed to finish five spots ahead of his teammate to jump to the top of the leader's board. A split in the bunch moved Matthews three seconds ahead of his ORICA-GreenEDGE teammates on the general classification.
"It's an incredible feeling," said Matthews. "It's really hard to describe how amazing it was to be up on the stage getting the pink jersey. It's an honour to be given the jersey from Svein and a real privilege to be able to wear it in my first Giro."
The rainy day did not deter the Northern Irish from turning out en masse to cheer on the peloton for the first Giro d'Italia road stage. The early attacks began from the gun. Maarten Tjallingii (Belkin) was the first rider to take a sizeable advantage. Jeffry Romero (Colombia) Sander Armee (Lotto Belisol) and Andrea Fedi (Neri Sottoli-Yellow Fluo) bridged across to the lone leader, making the day's break a four rider move.
With Tuft in pink, the Australian outfit dutifully assumed its spot at the front of the peloton. The breakaway opened up a 6'30 advantage within the first hour of racing at which point ORICA-GreenEDGE lifted the tempo ever-so-slightly, pegging the four back by about a minute. For the next 100 kilometres, the break's advantage would hold steady between five and six minutes.
"Today's stage had the potential to be very tricky," said Sport Director Matt White. "We rode in the beautiful countryside, but as we saw, the weather is very erratic. The wind was down, so it was a lot calmer than we expected. The boys were in the safest position in the bunch most of the day – on the front. They rode well to control the peloton all day."
When it was time to chase, Giant-Shimano lent troops to the efforts. Twenty kilometres from the finish, the escape group's advantage had shrunk to one minute. Tjallingii made one last attempt to evade the peloton, attacking his breakmates eight kilometres from the finish. The peloton swallowed him up just before the three kilometre mark. By that point, the sprint trains had begun to take shape.
"It was a long and wet stage, so we really needed to stay focused all day," said Matthews. "The guys did a great job keeping it all together and getting me into the right position for the finish."
Matthews remained well-positioned into the critical left-hand bend 300 metres from the line at which point he found himself slightly swamped. Nacer Bouhanni (FDJ) was the first to open his sprint, but Marcel Kittel (Giant Shimano) was able to respond. Kittel snagged his first Giro d'Italia win ahead of Bouhanni in second and Giacomo Nizzolo (Trek Factory Racing) in third. Matthews managed eighth in the sprint.
"Michael is our sprinter here, and obviously the goal today was to control the peloton and put Michael into as good as position as possible until what we knew would be a very technical last corner," said White. "It worked very well, and with the split in the bunch, we actually put some time into our rivals."
"The next couple of days, the goal is to keep the jersey on Michael's back," White added. "When we get some uphill, who knows? We might have the opportunity to change the jersey again to Pieter Weening or Ivan Santaromita."

Green color always represents as refreshing and cool which can be said as the best color in this hot summer. Today, I'd like to show you several delicate watches with such a charming green color.
Orange Second Hand Fake Rolex Migauss 116400-GV-72400 Watches
Rolex can be said as the best watch brand to successfully use the green color, whether for the green Rolex Submariner watches or this fake Rolex watch with green crystal. And at the same time, with the perfect combination of black dial and orange second hand, this replica Rolex watch presents a wonderful visual effect.
Grey Dial Replica Omega Speedmaster Watches
Comparing other common fake Omega watches, this fake one seems to be more eye-catching with such a green color. The using of the green bezel is more delicate than completely using the green dial. Matching the grey dial and strap, this gold crown fake Omega shows us more harmonious design feeling.


text: So I am a truck driver and have no meds available no anything available and the worst toothache I have ever experienced. Enough so I was tempted to call carve my tooth out with my pocket knife. I looked up accucpressure points for tooth pain and INSTANT relief. I pressed first on the meaty part of my hand between the thumb and fore finger then I pinched my cheeks just below my eyes...that one done the trick. Its free and it's worth a shot. I couldn't believe how well it worked.

Motor and Fleet Insurance
Just because you're a small business, it doesn't mean you need to think small when you're insuring your business vehicles. If you have two or more vehicles we can arrange Fleet Insurance for each car, van or HGV under one policy.
Fleet Insurance can cover your business car if you are involved in an accident, suffer a break in, if the vehicle is stolen, and or any damage or bodily injury to a third party.
With the right policy in place, you can send your fleet on their way to wherever your business takes them, knowing that they and their drivers are covered with a combination of whatever options you need for your business, including goods in transit cover, public liability, and plant and tool cover.
We can review your business model, and vehicles, to see how we can make your Fleet Insurance policy work for you through a sizeable network of insurers.

The Reserve Hotel began construction in late 2018, and is expected to open in late 2020.
The Hotel
The Reserve Hotel features a unique story and position in the Chicago hospitality market. The 208 South LaSalle building, originally designed by world-renowned architect Daniel H. Burnham, was intended by Burnham to be a "monument to commerce" with a stature equal to public institutions, government offices and libraries.
With its location in a historic office building and in the heart of Chicago's financial district, next door to the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, the design, finish and artwork throughout The Reserve Hotel will reflect the building's history and the story of the LaSalle Street financial district.
The entity developing The Reserve Hotel is RCP Hotel Owner, LLC ("RCP Hotel"), an affiliate owned and controlled by Michael W. Reschke and The Prime Group, Inc. RCP Hotel owns floors 18 thru 22 of 208 South LaSalle Street Chicago, Illinois. Currently the middle floors of this historic building (13-17) are fully-leased to office tenants and the lower floors (1-12) contain the much acclaimed 610-key J.W. Marriott hotel which opened in November 2010.
EB-5 Investment
The EB-5 investment vehicle is RCP Hotel EB-5 Investors, LLC ("RCP Investors"). The general partner of RCP Investors is RCP EB-5 Manager, LLC ("Manager"). EB-5 investors will receive a preferred return on their investment 0.5% annually. RCP Investors intends to fund a loan up to $30,000,000 bearing interest at 3.5% to RCP Hotel to partially fund the development costs of The Reserve Hotel.
Project Capitalization
The project capitalization shall consist of $65 million of senior first mortgage construction financing (the "Senior Financing"), a $30 million loan provided by the EB-5 investment entity, and $13.2 million of owner equity. The EB-5 loan will be for a term of five years and shall bear interest at 3.5%.

Interested in finding out about foster care payments? Read on…
We believe that being a foster carer is an important job, so it's important that our carers receive foster care payments to cover their costs.
We know that our carers do not take on the role of fostering lightly and also that it's a full-time role, and not a voluntary service.
So as well as giving our carers training and support, we also ensure that they receive payments, to enable them to have the resources to care for children and young people in the best possible way.
Carers receive an allowance to cover the cost of things like household bills, food, clothes, travel, school uniforms, pocket money, etc.
All foster carers receive payments into their bank account every fortnight, so that they always have enough money to pay for the things that are needed by the children or young people they are caring for.
The amount that foster carers are paid depends on various factors, including the age of the child or young person, and the type and length of care needed.
At Apple Fostering, our carers receive £372 per week for caring for a child under 13, and £412 per week for caring for a child aged 13 or over.
In certain circumstances carers may be paid more – if the child has special needs, for example, or if you are fostering a mother and baby.
In most cases, foster care payments are tax-free due to the HMRC foster carers' tax exemption scheme. To make sure our carers know what they are entitled to, we give all of our carers the tax advice they need, by providing them with membership to www.fostertalk.org/memberships.
Want to know more about foster care payments? Call us on 0845 057 3845 or complete our online inquiry form for further information.

The differing left-wing and right-wing visions of the role of government seem parallel to descriptions of alpha and beta behavior.
Liberals want a beta provider government. They want a government that will support them, that will pay for their lifestyle and remunerate them for any (self-imposed) hardships or mistakes. They want a government that will not judge them, but indulge them. Success should be punished out of a sense of impotent envy, and achievement should be redistributed rather than earned (because after all, the game is rigged and I'm too weak to avoid mediocrity by myself). On the international stage, the government's foreign policy should be deferential to others and apologetic when attacked. After all, what was 9/11 but the proper punishment for our getting "out of line" with other countries and cultures? "Blowback" for asserting ourselves, for which we must apologize?
Conservatives want an alpha protector government. They want a live-and-let-live state where the government does not involve itself with your problems. Each person is allowed to stake their own path, and are left alone to enjoy their accomplishments. Those with confidence and skill are allowed to succeed, and are admired for it. The government is not expected to bail out bad decisions, or to support your life choices–and, in fact, is only present when truly necessary: to protect life, property, and liberty. The government should unapologetically deal with wrongdoers, and in foreign policy, hawkishly defend itself and its allies. The state is unafraid to exert its muscle in punishing evil, and ignores the slave morality of deference and moral equivalence with our enemies.

Introduction: Select & Change the Color of Anything in Photoshop
Hey Guys, in today's episode of Skandy Tutorials, we learn how to make a selection of individual colors in Adobe Photoshop and change them using Hue/Saturation.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Select Out and Change the Color of Everything Using Adobe Photoshop - Written Tutorial -
Drag and drop the image you are going to use into Adobe Photoshop, i would advise using a .png image with a transparent background to create strong contrast between the colors. If you need to remove the background from your image using the quick selection will do. Here is a tutorial if you are unsure.
Change Remove Background - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GJIssaY21Q&list=UULub44i5kP9spMqFRGE1f-A
Create a new layer and choose the paint bucket tool, select a color that you wish to have the background as. If you are using an image with the background still in then skip this step as i will show you how to change the background colors too.
Create a new layer, choose Select, Color Range, have select set as sample colors and using the eyedropper select the area or item you wish to change the color of. The idea is to have the area you wish to change the color of as white and by using the plus and minus eyedroppers having everything else as black. Adjust the fuzziness up and down to get the clearest contrast between black and white, if there are any small imperfections that you cant seem to get rid of then don't worry as we will remove this with some layer masking. Once happy click OK.
Now click on a new adjustment layer in the bottom panel and select hue and saturation and check colorize. Play around with the hue / saturation and lightness to change the color to your selection.
To remove any imperfections in the image then on the Adjustment Layer mask choose either Black or White following the same principles as above and using the Brush Tool painting in or out each affected area.
To change the background follow the exact same steps as above but this time have the foreground image white and the background as black.
You have now Completed the Select Out & Change Colors Photoshop Tutorial

Let me make a bold statement: Christianity is not predominantly a teaching religion. We have been almost overrun these days by the cult of the speaker. The person who can stand up and expound correct doctrine is viewed as essential; without such a talent the church would not know what to do. The North American church has made the sermon the centerpiece of the meeting, rather than the throne of grace, where God acts in people's lives.
The Jewish faith in Jesus' day was dominated by rabbis—teachers of the Law. Their doctrine was thorough. Jesus told them "You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life" (John 5:39-40, italics added). They knew the written Word of God very well, but not the living Word, even as He stood before them.
The Scriptures are not so much the goal as they are an arrow that points us to the life-changing Christ.
Unfortunately, the rabbis never did realize who was among them. In the last few days before His crucifixion, Jesus wept over the city as He said, "You did not recognize the time of your visitation" (Luke 19:44).
It is fine to explain about God, but far too few people today are experiencing the living Christ in their lives. We are not seeing God's visitation in our gatherings. We are not on the lookout for His outstretched hand.
The teaching of sound doctrine is a prelude, if you will, to the supernatural. It is also a guide, a set of boundaries to keep emotion and exuberance within proper channels.
But as Paul said, "The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life" (2 Corinthians 3:6). If the Holy Spirit is not given an opening among us, if His work is not welcomed, if we are afraid of what He might do, we leave ourselves with nothing but death.
Jim Cymbala began Brooklyn Tabernacle with less than twenty members in a small, rundown building in a difficult part of the city. A native of Brooklyn and longtime friend of both David and Gary Wilkerson, Cymbala is a frequent speaker at the Expect Church Leadership Conferences sponsored by World Challenge throughout the world.

Released: 3/4/19
The AIMS v1.42 release includes several reported bug fixes and the following functionality enhancements:
Transferring Clients between Courts
For customers configured with multiple Courts within a single jurisdiction or a statewide configuration, AIMS now provides the ability for Users with the Edit Courts permission to transfer a Client from one Court to another.
From a Client's Involvement Overview, Users can transfer a Client to another Court by clicking on the Edit (pencil) icon next to the Court/Judge field. The Edit Court dialog will open and the User will select the new Location, Court and Reason for the transfer, as well as any notes before clicking the Next:
On the next screen, Users can select the new Caseload, Track, Phase, Docket Schedule, Drug Testing Group and the number of Curfew Checks/week, as needed. When the appropriate changes are completed, Users click the Transferbutton to complete the Court transfer.
Once transferred, the User in the new Court/Caseload is notified. The notification type is "Involvement Transferred" – the description will read, "Transferred from <previous Court name> due to <Reason> ."
Users can opt in/out of this Notification type by selecting the Gear icon (top right of screen) to manage their Notifications.
Once transferred, the User in the new Court can see the client's history, including the Court they were transferred from, reason and all of the Client's progress and Involvement history, including Notes, Treatment, Contacts, Drug Tests, Demographics, etc., from the previous Court. Users from the new Court have the ability to further modify the Client's active Phase requirements.
Days in Phase, Days in Program and Sobriety Date will remain the same after the transfer.
Users can only transfer to a Court where the User has the Edit Courtspermission; if a User does not have the Edit Courts permission, the Edit Courticon is disabled with the permissions tool tip.
Track/Phase and Caseload Filters Added for Treatment/Education Attendance
AIMS now provides added filtering capabilities for Track/Phase and Caseload related to Treatment/Education Attendance.
A filter panel is now displayed on the right of the screen when accessing Treatment/Education Attendance; Users can open/close the panel by using the Filter icon.
No filters are selected by default and all Involvements enrolled in the program are displayed.
Users may filter by:
- Client Involvement
- Caseload (including "Unassigned")
- Track/Phase
- Gender
Note that the filter listing is dynamic, presenting only a list of available Caseloads, Tracks/Phases and Genders for Clients enrolled in a particular program. As an example, if a Client assigned to the Caseload Phoenix Drug Court – 3 was enrolled in this particular program for this specific date, Phoenix Drug Court – 3 would appear in the filter listing; likewise, if no enrolled Clients were Track 2 participants, Track 2 would not appear on the filter listing.
Ability to Track Facilitator on Treatment/Education Attendance
A new Facilitator field has been added to Home –> Supervision –> Treatment/Education Attendance and Client –> Treatment/Education Attendance –> Treatment Attendance. Facilitator is a free text field for recording the Facilitator of the Treatment/Education session.
On the Log Attendance dialog on the Client page (Client –> Treatment/Education Attendance –> Treatment Attendance –> Log Attendance), Facilitator can also be set for the individual Client.
On the Treatment Attendance page, a Facilitator Column has been added.
A Facilitator filter has also been added; filters can be accessed from the Filtericon in the top right of the screen (shown in screenshot above):
The Facilitator field can also be edited on the Treatment Attendance page. Select the tool tip to the far right of a previously recorded attendance and select Edit Attendance.
As the Facilitator field is free text, simply replace the existing facilitator with the new facilitator's name and click Save:
TANF Eligibility Report
A new TANF Eligibility Report has been added to Reporting and will be visible to Users with theView TANF permission. The User may select the following required filters:
- Location;
- Caseload;
- Track/Phase;
- Status.
Upon selecting the Run Report button, the report displays all Clients where TANF Eligible is set to "Yes".
The report can be printed by clicking the Print icon (printer) in the top right of the screen.
Specialty Court Listing Filters
Filtering capabilities have been added to all four Specialty Court listings – Referred, Awaiting Intake, Admitted and All. To utilize Filters, click the Filters icon in the top right of the screen.
When the filters are active, the Filter field will turn orange. Users can clear all filters by clicking the "X" button.

A low coffee table means a couple of floor pillows can double as flexible seating. This outdoor deck uses simple woven ones.
Sofas, chairs and floor pillows are gathered around a long fire pit in this outdoor area. Bright white cushions are a fresh pop of contrast against the deck's pale gray.

Boris Johnson faces probe over building work as neighbours complain about 'loud noises'
Islington Council is looking at whether an enforcement case should be opened against Mr Johnson
15 March, 2019 — By Calum Fraser
Boris Johnson
IT has been a stressful few weeks for MPs, none of whom seem too clear what will happen next: a divorce from Europe, a second referendum, a general election, maybe a Tory leadership contest.
But while the nation watches and waits to see whether Brexit will ever come to pass, former foreign secretary Boris Johnson has a bit of what he might call bureaucracy closer to home to deal with first.
The Tribune can reveal that Islington Council is looking at whether an enforcement case should be opened against Mr Johnson, the Brexit-backing former Mayor of London, after work began on his property near Angel.
Scaffolding on Boris Johnson's Angel home
Passers-by and neighbors have been unable to miss the scaffolding around the building, bought for £2.3million with his now-estranged wife Marina Wheeler.
The council has not received a planning application for work at the house and confirmed last night (Thursday) that it was looking into what was being done. From the street, workers can be heard in the roof area.
One neighbour said: "I've been away for a few days and I hadn't noticed the work until it woke me up one morning. There was just a lot of loud noises."
It is understood a Town Hall planning officer visited the site earlier this week for an inspection.
Mr Johnson bought the property in 2009 and once remarked in a debate on the future of London how he regularly received his copy of the Islington Tribune through the door, claiming that the paper regularly "denounced" his decisions as mayor.
Since leaving City Hall, he has held a parliamentary seat in Uxbridge.
While serving as foreign secretary, he also lived in a grace-and-favour home in central London.
He quit the front bench amid damning criticism from him of Theresa May's Brexit strategy.
His marriage came to an end when he split with Ms Wheeler at the end of last year. Despite his rollercoaster career, some pundits have not ruled out the idea that No10 Downing Street could one day be his address.
Planning permission is not always required for alterations to roofs as long they are not higher than the tallest part of the existing building.
An Islington Council spokeswoman said: "The team will investigate and open an enforcement case if necessary," but added: "This may not require any case or further action."
The Tribune approached Mr Johnson for a comment but did not receive one.

Two-Shop Merger Means More Opportunity, Not LessJeff Jones may have a model for some workshops facing financial challenge.
Manager of Innovative Industries in Carthage for nine years, Jones has also become manager of Joplin Workshops, Inc. in a unique merger designed to better utilize limited funding for both workshops.
"It was bred out of necessity to shave some costs for both organizations," he explained. "But I see it as an opportunity for both shops as well."
Former Joplin Director Susan Adams first suggested the idea. She had joined that shop three years ago when the organization faced serious challenges, a position similar to that faced earlier by Jones in Carthage.
"She had turned things around," he noted. "We were in a similar spot when I took over in Carthage. We'd suffered financially for a few years, and we had to hustle a little bit to become profitable. That's also what we're trying to do now."
The merger began last summer and was finalized Oct. 1. Jones serves as executive director for both shops, as a Carthage employee and as a contractor for Joplin. Cammy Barton is now operations manager in Carthage, and Traci Tune fulfills that role in Joplin. Each shop retained their individual board of directors and other functions. Some areas may be consolidated in the future, but the biggest changes may involve increased opportunity and services for what is now a more connected organization.
"There are some synergies between each workshop," Jones explained, noting Joplin's recycling and the Carthage secure document service. "This gives us some access to customers we didn't have before and creates opportunities for us to go after larger jobs because we have two locations and a combined workforce."
There are challenges as well, starting with Jones driving between two shops located about 20 miles apart. "It does keep me hopping along pretty hard," he laughed. "But it's good because it's created a lot of opportunity for both shops."
The effort is also proceeding carefully. "We're taking our time and figuring things out," he stressed. "Right now, we want to maintain our identities. That may change at some point, but both organizations are community oriented. We want to keep that identity. The key is to do what's best for our employees and make sure we have work for everyone.

J. J. Abrams has explained his thinking behind THAT Kylo Ren scene so if you have seen The Force Awakens yet, turn away now…
"In my early drafts, my thinking was we had to bridge the end of Return of the Jedi to what happens in this movie, and we didn't want everybody to start off all together. We wanted them to be spread all throughout the galaxy. We came up with a backstory that Luke had a pupil who turned against him and fought him, and killed all the other pupils, and that was a thing that exploded the family and destroyed Han and Leia's relationship."
"I had thought Han's story and Leia's story was just about them coming back together. At the end of the movie they would have reconciled and gotten over their differences. And you would have said, 'Okay, bad stuff happened, but at least they're back together again. J.J. rightly asked, 'What is Han doing in this movie?' If we're not going to have something important and irreversible happen to him, then he kind of feels like luggage. He feels like this great, sexy piece of luggage you have in your movie. But he's not really evolving. He's not really pushing the story forward."
"[Han Solo's death is] this massive tradeoff. How can we possible do that!? But… if we hadn't done that, the movie wouldn't have any guts at all. It felt very dangerous."
