Strictly Kim Dancing
There she is with her lovely horse. The horse I lay awake dreaming about riding with her in my formative years. Gripping her around the waist with one arm as we leapt majestically over a gushing brook. Holding onto my hat with the other arm, shrieking wildly. And then just the two of us going back to Home Farm to watch reruns of Going For Gold with Henry Kelly while she tickled my back. Absolute bliss. My very own evil rich bitch.
Kim Tate was always neck and neck with Jet from Gladiators in my imaginary mental race for my affections. That tells you how high a regard I held her in - and still do. And then there she was last night... dancing the Mambo with a troupe of other minor celebrity women. The first time I've seen her on TV since she fled Emmerdale in a helicopter with all of Frank Tate's money some time in the mid-90s (I don't watch Bad Girls, obviously. Or Emmerdale anymore, obviously... only when it mattered).
Apparently she makes her real entry to the competition next Saturday. Suddenly my Saturday night diary is looking quite congested from 7.50pm onwards for the next few weeks. Don't call me, the phone will be off the hook. Apart from to ring and vote when she's in danger of being knocked out, of course.

Auburn's Signing Day Schedule: Announcement times, broadcasting info and finalists
Auburn currently boasts the No. 12 recruiting class in the country, and the Tigers are looking to build on that momentum heading into Wednesday's National Signing Day.
With nine four-star prospects either committed or enrolled early, coach Gus Malzahn and company are aiming to close out the 2016 recruiting cycle strong, as the program is in good position to land commitments from five-star defensive tackle Derrick Brown and four-star receiver Nate Craig-Myers.
While their decisions have yet to be made, plans for their upcoming commitment ceremonies have been finalized.
Check them out below:
Nigel Warrior, four-star safety, Suwannee, Ga. — 8:00 a.m. at the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta, Ga. Warrior, who took his last official visit to Tennessee, is down to the Volunteers, Alabama, Georgia, Auburn and LSU.
Ben Davis, five-star inside linebacker, Gordo, Ala. — 10:00 a.m. at Gordo High School on ESPNU. The Alabama legacy is down to Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Notre Dame and LSU.
Nate Craig-Myers, four-star wide receiver, Tampa, Fla. — 11 a.m. at Tampa Catholic High School on ESPNU. Craig-Myers has trimmed his final schools to Auburn and North Carolina.
Landon Dickerson, four-star offensive tackle, Hudson, N.C. — 12:00 p.m. on ESPNU at South Caldwell High School. Dickerson is still considering Auburn, Florida State, Alabama, Tennessee, among others.
Ahmmon Richards, four-star wide receiver, West Palm Beach, Fla. — 12:00 p.m. at Wellington High School. Richards declared Miami, Alabama and Auburn his top schools over the weekend.
Jayvaughn Myers, three-star cornerback, Dade City, Fla. — 1:00 p.m. at Pasco High School. Like his brother, Myers will decide between UNC and Auburn.
Rashan Gary, five-star defensive tackle, Paramus, N.J. — 1:00 p.m. on ESPN2 in Bristol, Conn. Gary is down to Ole Miss, Clemson, Auburn, Alabama and Michigan. He is rated as the No. 1 prospect.
E.J. Price, four-star offensive tackle, Lawrenceville, Ga. — 2:45 p.m. at Archer High School on NBC. Price appears to be down to Auburn and Georgia, with the Bulldogs receiving his final official visit.
David Marshall, three-star defensive end, Thomaston, Ga. — 3:00 p.m. at Upson-Lee High School. It's a two-team race for Marshall, as Georgia has tried to pry him away from Auburn in recent weeks.
Derrick Brown, five-star defensive tackle, Buford, Ga. — 3:00 p.m. at Lanier High School on ESPN2. Brown is down to Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia and Mississippi State.
All rankings are according to the 247Sports Composite

Serena Reveals She Was Pregnant While She Won The Australian Open
(Image: Getty)
Serena Williams is expecting a baby and will not play again in 2017, her representative has confirmed.
The 23-time grand slam singles champion hinted at a pregnancy when she posted a picture of herself in a yellow swimsuit, showing off a prominent bump, on the social media app Snapchat.
It came with the caption "20 weeks", but was then deleted without explanation before official confirmation came several hours later.
A short statement from her representative on Wednesday (Thursday AEST) said: "I'm happy to confirm Serena is expecting a baby this Fall."
Williams, who will return to the Tour in 2018, won the Australian Open in January and was pregnant at the time of that success, if she is now at the 20-week stage.
She announced her engagement to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in December and has not played on tour since her grand slam success in Australia when she overtook Steffi Graf to claim the outright Open era record for slam singles titles.
She pulled out of the recent tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami citing a knee injury but was scheduled to play at the Madrid Open next month.
The 35-year-old will return to world No.1 on Monday despite her recent inaction, though that stay at the summit will now not last for long.
Williams has made no secret of her desire to have a family.
Speaking to Glamour magazine last year, she said: "I definitely want to have kids one day.
"That's always something I've wanted as long as I could remember. And the older I get, the more I'm like, 'I'm too young!'.
"Hopefully I'll be able to mature one of these days, get serious, and at least have them pretty fast."
Williams will be the second top player in less than a year to take time away from the tour to have a baby.
Former world No.1 Victoria Azarenka gave birth to her first child Leo on December 20 and is planning to return to the sport at the Bank of the West Classic in Stanford at the end of July.
Williams' apparent announcement quickly became big news. The United States Tennis Association sent its congratulations.
The USTA stated on Twitter: "The GOAT (greatest of all time) herself @serenawilliams took to Snapchat to announce she's 20 weeks pregnant! Congratulations Serena!"
Accompanied by a picture of Williams with the trophy, a message on the US Open account read: ".@serenawilliams will have a new pride & joy to hug and call her own soon! Congratulations on the exciting baby announcement! #USOpen"

On the Mat Day 277: Sleep Deprived Again
Training last night was enjoyable. I did not get mown over by some guys who usually go right through me. During sparring I tried to focus on posture as much as possible. Many of the time I got caught or put in a bad spot was when I had not maintained good posture. During a stacking pass I tried to keep my skeletal structure in good alignment and achieved a successful pass. In a purple belt's closed guard I kept my posture strong and used a frame on my arms and remained safe from his attacks but he eventually got me with a hip bump after tricking me with a combination.
I am still weak against defending chokes and getting the opponent off me when I am turtled. Perhaps I should work on this. Ah, frustrating, there are so many thing to improve.
Sparring time: 6 x 6 mins = 36 mins
Notable moments: Lots of successful escapes from mount, side and back.
1 comment:
"Apparently this happens for other fighting arts such as boxing. Funnily it never happened when I did Karate. This leads me to wonder if it's a phenomenon related to fighting arts that are alive or have live sparring." - This really sticks out to me because it's true in my own experience as well. BJJ has been the only art I've ever studied/ practiced which has woke me up at night, deliberating movements & strategies. I think it has a lot to do with the allowance of fluidity from one potential technique to another, something you don't see as often in more classical, rigid styles such as karate or taekwondo. With so many potentialities/ probabilities, your mind has endless considerations. Interesting post. Look forward to reading more.ReplyDelete

Dog Bites and Attacks
Dog bites and attacks can cause permanent injuries and even cause death. Death can occur as a result of blood loss, serious lacerations and infection. One can suffer man types of injuries from a dog bite / dog attack, including, abrasions, puncture wounds, tissue damage, nerve damage, tendon damage, lacerations, fractures, strains, sprains, disability, deformity, scarring, disfigurement and infections such as rabies and cellulitis infections.
If you are a victim of a dog bite injury, you need to be assessed and treated by a qualified medical practitioner to ensure that the damage is not more serious that it may appear. You should be particularly examined for infections, fractures and nerve damage.
Not only can dog bite injuries lead to excruciating lacerations and puncture wounds, nerve damage, fractures, serious infections, disability, and deformity, but death is a viable option as well.
If you have been attacked by a dog or bitten by a dog, we can assist you. We are dog liability experts and work on a no fee unless you win basis. Our consultations are free and we are happy to answer any of your questions. Ottawa Dog Bite Lawyers - 613-315-4878. Ask for Marc-Nicholas Quinn, Lawyer, Mediator, Law Instructor
Dog Bites and Related Personal Injury Issues
Dogs can attack and cause serious personal injury. Other animals can also cause injury and bites from many animals can prove dangerous if not medically treated right away.
Dogs attack because of various reasons. You should not leave your children unsupervised in the presence of any dog. Children may believe the dog wants to play and misinterpret the behaviour which can cause a dog to attack. Young children can appear as competition and a threat to dogs who will attack o defend territory etc...
The consequences of animal bites and dog attacks can be devastating and cause permanent disability. Minor physical wounds can be treated. However, serious dog attacks can cause permanent psychological damage, especially in children. Dog bites can often cause infections and rabies. Medical treatment should always be sought after a dog attack, regardless of how serious or non serious the injuries may at first appear. An animal bite may not appear to be threatening to life. However, if you leave it untreated, it can lead to serious infection. Infections can cause death.
Always report a dog attack or bite to the local police and local animal control department. You should also contact the health department to check for any possibility of rabies.
If you have been attacked by a dog or bitten by a dog, contact us for a free consultation. We are dog liability experts. We work on a No Fee Until You Win Basis. Ottawa dog bite lawyers - Ottawa personal injury lawyers. 613-315-4878.
More Information on Dog Bites and Damages - Following Dog Bite Lawyer's Series on Dogs and Personal Injury
While dogs are considered man's best friend, they are also capable of causing serious and permanent injury if they bite or attack, especially if the bite or attack involves children. Dogs provide companionship, security and a source of friendship which are all positive attributes. However, when dogs attack, the consequences can be devastating. Dogs are animals and have to be treated as such. They are capable of changing their behaviour in an instant and if challenged, angered or without provocation at all, they can attack. What actually sets off a dog to attack and/or to bite is limitless.
At Plant Quinn Thiele Mineault Grodzki PC, LLP, we see many cases of dog attacks which were unpredictable. They can occur anywhere. They can occur with dogs, at large, on leashes or even tied to a post. If a dog can reach you, they can attack and bite. Some attacks occur at home, others at friends homes and in other cases in the streets, parks and in stores.
If you have suffered injuries from a dog bite or dog attack, you are entitled to compensation. In Ontario, the law is clear - if you are injured by a dog, you get compensated - it is that simple. The issue is really only the amount of compensation, not if compensation will be paid. Dog bites and attacks are considered a special form of negligence called "strict" liability torts, which protect victims. In addition, a person injured by a dog may also seek compensation under the Criminal Injuries Compensation legislation. Not only are dog owners responsible for injuries caused by their dog, land owners who allow dogs of others on their property can also be held liable under usual negligence principles such as the Ontario Residential Tenancies Act and the Occupier's Liability Act. The only exception to the usual rules of dogs and liability are cases involving being injured by a dog while committing an illegal act or where the dog was provoked significantly and purposely. If you have purposely provoked a dog to become angry and it attacks you, the dog owner will not be necessarily, but will likely still be partially, responsible for the damage or injury caused by the dog.
The owner of a dog must take care to protect others from their dog or they will be held liable for the damages which the dog has inflicted, including damage to the person or to property. Dog owners can be held liable for any type of damages. There is no limit on what types of damages you can claim if injured by a dog. You may seek general damages for pain and suffering, special damages such as loss of income, recovery of expenses such as medical expenses, out of pocket expenses, travel expenses, counselling costs, etc... and the list goes on.
If you have been injured by a dog, you would be well served to obtain information from one of our dog bite lawyers. We are experts on dog bite cases. With the right knowledge, you can create options or yourself and decide if you want to pursue a claim for compensation as a result of a dog bite or attack. At Quinn Thiele Mineault Grodzki LLP, we provide this legal advice free of charge and if retained to pursue compensation on your behalf, we charge nothing unless we win your case - and, we almost always win!
If you are a victim of a dog bite or dog attack, contact us for a free consultation at 613-315-HURT or 613-315-4878. Marc N.

Statement about Panbanisha's Illness and Treatment
from the Iowa Primate Learning Sanctuary:
The IPLS bonobos are the only great apes in the state of Iowa and are attended to regularly by local veterinarian, Dr. Julie Gilmore, who by nature as a veterinarian, is trained and licensed to diagnose and treat multiple species. Mammals have much in common with one another physiologically, and veterinarians are skilled at learning about significant species differences and applying that knowledge accordingly. Dr. Gilmore routinely consults about the bonobos' health with a network of respected great ape veterinarians and human specialists located throughout the United States.
During this most recent round of illness in the bonobo group, from which Panbanisha did not recover, Dr. Gilmore consulted with three respected veterinarians with great ape experience (one being a boarded internal medicine specialist with a special interest in respiratory and cardiovascular disease, another being a zoo veterinarian with extensive bonobo experience, and the third being a zoo residency-trained private practitioner with a zoo background and more than 30 years of great ape experience.) Input regarding the illness was also obtained from a human, pediatric respiratory specialist.
The bonobos' treatment plan was largely based on these clinicians' cumulative, well-informed recommendations. While the rest of the bonobos have responded well to treatment, devastatingly, Panbanisha did not, despite round-the-clock veterinary care by Dr. Gilmore and her staff, which included life-saving treatments, such as nebulization and oxygen therapy to supplement her medication regimen. Panbanisha went into sudden respiratory arrest on Tuesday night. A respectable 90-minute CPR effort was made to save her.
Panbanisha's body was immediately taken to Iowa State University's College of Veterinary Medicine for a necropsy following her death. The necropsy was performed on November 7, 2012. Results are pending and the full report should be available within several weeks. The facility's USDA veterinarian, who also has previous clinical great ape experience, was aware that the bonobos were fighting a respiratory illness and saw all of the bonobos at a voluntary exhibitor's license inspection the previous week. The USDA was notified immediately with the news of Panbanisha's death.
Respiratory disease is always taken seriously in bonobos, as respiratory disease is a leading cause of death in the species. Specifically, the most common causes of mortality in bonobos are respiratory disease (~40%) and cardiac disease (~40%.) That said, they can get nearly any disease seen in humans or others apes. They are very susceptible to human respiratory diseases and sporadic individuals will develop Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and die acutely. The underlying virus or bacteria is not always identified, but common pathogens include parainfluenzas, respiratory syncytial virus, influenza virus, adenovirus, Haemophilus and Streptococcus. Precautions are taken to protect the bonobos from respiratory disease, including, but not limited to, frequent disinfecting of enclosures, requiring all staff and volunteers to be tested for tuberculosis routinely, quarantining sick individuals, and not allowing staff members or volunteers known to be ill around the bonobos.
At a conservative estimate of 43 years of age, Matata, the matriarch of the bonobo family and Panbanisha's mother, is one of the oldest bonobos in captivity. Bonobos occasionally live into their fifties in captivity. Panbanisha's manner of death at 27 years of age, while tragic, is somewhat common in the captive bonobo population. It is unknown how long bonobos may live in the wild.

Nashville, TN – Mapex Drums and Majestic Percussion are thrilled to announce the addition of Dr. Brian Mason to their world-renowned artist and education roster. Brian currently serves as Associate Professor of Percussion at Morehead State University in Morehead, Kentucky.
Dr. Brian Mason is a highly respected innovator of the contemporary marching percussion ensemble. In high demand as a clinician, designer, and adjudicator, he has traveled extensively throughout the United States, Japan, Canada, Korea and Mexico. His career in the DCI activity has spanned more than two decades, with his most noted work coming via the Cavaliers, Phantom Regiment, and the Santa Clara Vanguard, claiming numerous awards and honors with these organizations during his tenure.
"Brian's contributions to the percussive arts are truly remarkable," says Mike Robinson, Director of Marketing for KHS America. "His insight and guidance will serve as critical components in the continued success of our percussion brands."
Dr. Mason received his D.M.A. and B.M. as a student of James B. Campbell at the University of Kentucky, and his M.M. at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas as a student of Dr. Dean Gronemeier. He is a member of the Vic Firth Education Committee, the Percussive Arts Society Health and Wellness Committee, and the Percussive Arts Society Marching Percussion Committee. He recently compiled the curriculum for Vic Firth Corporation's PERCUSSION 101, a video series that provides students and instructors with a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental techniques for the marching percussion section. The video features Mason and the four time National Champion Morehead State University Marching Percussion Ensemble.
"Mapex is the hottest percussion brand on the market today," says Mason. "Since day one I've felt right at home with the Mapex/Majestic family. Whether I am teaching in my studio at Morehead State University or on stage performing, I know that the music I am expressing is going to be enhanced by the quality of the Mapex and Majestic instruments."
In addition to his studio at Morehead State University, Brian is a contract section player with the Lexington Philharmonic Orchestra, and appears as a guest artist with many high school and university percussion ensembles across the country.

This isn't really that surprising. The BBC, like Reuters, likes the term "militant" (and now also "bomber," apparently), and has always been little more than a centimeter away from calling terrorists in Israel "freedom fighters."

The bibliographies contain entries for books, journal articles, dissertations, edited volumes and videocassettes. The first bibliography, "Methods of Ethnographic Field Studies," has entries that summarize some of the most important works about ethnographic research. The second bibliography, "General Studies of Religion and Higher Education," contains entries for general works describing religion, higher education, undergraduates, or any combination of these in American life. The third bibliography, "Religion and Higher Education in Specific Institutions and Specific Types of Institutions," lists research on specific institutions, works pertaining to specific denominations or populations (including Catholics, Protestants, and African Americans), and types of institutions such as colleges, schools of religion, church related colleges and state universities.

Is this normal or is there something I should be worried about??? What are the possible causes of this?.
I ovulate like twice in my cycle?
- Asked

- 14 September 2014
Responses (1)
Before I ovulate,I feel a sharp pain in either my right or left lower abdomen,and I was told by a Nurse it could be the ovaries releasing the ovum,when I checked with my calender twas tallying with the ovulation dates I marked.Now I have a short cycle of 26 days,after the normal ovulation 14 days before my menstruation,I also feel these signs during menstruation.it is quite different from menstrual cramps,which I can Identify,the said slippery discharge comes out mixed with d menstrul fluid,I still feel that sharp pain in my abdomen,which is now the other side of where I felt it during the last ovulation,I feel other signs of ovulation,like being horny,bloating,and some others.I have asked if it could be another ovulation and some colleagues told me yes.I just want to confirm if something like that is possible or it's my body's normal action.thanks.
What she's talking about is Mittleschmerz and that nurse did not mean if you had it more then once a month. You can't know if you're ovulating more unless a dr does testing. Something else is causing the pains you are having. There aren't overt symptoms of ovulation, that's why women have so much trouble getting pregnant.
Thanks. But should I be scared of this other thing causing the pain???

Popular pizza eatery to open Portsmouth location
Article Excerpt:
The owner of 900 Degrees pizzeria is expanding her business into Portsmouth, which will mark the restaurant company's third location.
In 2007, Priscilla Lane-Rondeau opened 900 Degrees on Dow Street in Manchester. The restaurant was a hit, and in 2013 she opened a second location at Brickyard Square in Epping. Since then, Lane-Rondeau has been getting requests to open in locations throughout the state, including Concord and Nashua, but she never set out to start a restaurant chain.
"I just wanted to bring a good wood-fired pizza to Manchester," she said.
Lane-Rondeau decided to open her third restaurant near Water Country on Lafayette Road because she found a spot close to where new affordable apartments are being built. She saw the opportunity to be part of a work/play community.
"The people we're targeting are more local people," Lane-Rondeau said.
In addition to being part of a neighborhood, Lane-Rondeau is looking forward to taking on some sustainability initiatives that aren't currently available to her in Manchester and Epping. Lane-Rondeau said she has always wanted to compost but couldn't. She set up a Thursday meeting to talk to developers about a green area behind the restaurant.
Lane-Rondeau is also considering gardening to harvest fresh vegetables for the restaurant's pizza and other dishes. In addition to serving wood-fired pizza, 900 Degrees serves soups, salads, sandwiches and fresh pasta.

The new location in Portsmouth will likely be located along Lafayette Road, away from the crowded restaurant scene in downtown Portsmouth. Equally important, the new Portsmouth location will have enough space to add composting to her green legacy.

900 Degrees Pizzeria Named a 2014 "Best of New England — Editors' Choice" Winner by Yankee Magazine
[Manchester, NH] (May 25, 2014)— 900 Degrees Pizzeria has been recognized as a 2014 "Editors' Choice" winner in Yankee Magazine's Travel Guide to New England. This designation is awarded by Yankee's editors and contributors who name select restaurants, lodgings, and attractions in New England to the exclusive list.

"We are honored that the editors at Yankee Magazine recognized us as having the best pizza in New Hampshire," said owner Priscilla Lane-Rondeau. "In the past we have been recognized as having the best chili in the state or best mac and cheese in the state- but our number one passion is creating delicious Neapolitan-style pizza. It is immensely gratifying anytime we receive accolades for our pizza!"
The pizza mentioned in Yankee Magazine, the classic margherita, is a customer favorite and consists of bright tomato sauce, fresh basil and slightly-salty buffalo mozzarella. The thin crust rings true to the signature Neapolitan-style- with delicately charred edges complementing the chewy center of the pie.
"Reading our annual special Travel Guide section, 'Best of New England,' is as close to sitting down with Yankee's editors and getting us to spill our favorite places as one can get," says Mel Allen, editor of Yankee Magazine.

We're joined by our state experts (William and Kay Scheller, Vermont; David Lyons and Patricia Harris, Massachusetts, with Amy Traverso and Kara Baskin, Boston; Hilary Nangle, Maine; Barbara Wysocki, Connecticut; Kate Grip, New Hampshire; and Lisa Speidel, Rhode Island), whose sole task is to surprise us: to tell us about restaurants and attractions and local secrets that will make this issue one to keep on hand whenever you set off to explore New England. Whether your journeys take you inland or to the sea, we hope these pages come along. As always, let us know what you find."
With two locations, one in Epping and one in Manchester, the restaurants house a custom-built wood-fired oven which delivers a thin crust pizza and keeps customers coming back for more. Both locations features a wide variety of thin-crust pizzas alongside an extensive wine and martini list, fresh salads and appetizers and a function room available to rent for events or business meetings.

Bypass a fault on a circut board.
Honda Accord AC controller No LED. No AC. No Temp controll.
This is a very widespread problem. Also this Tek has succeded many times.
It seems to be due to corrosion from a rubber spacers glue that is causeing the problem.
The controll panel on this '01 model just has 2 screws on the bottom. Pull it out working your way up from the bottom.
Remove all plugs. And temp controll knob. On the back are gold screws holding on the black controll board cover. Twist the black LED with the black wires showing, counter clockwise and gently remove the board. Free each corner and lift straight up.
You should test the plug with a wire and a Volt Ohm meeter. As not to damage the plug. Find the schematic and DYODD. .
I, to speed things up, plugged just the board in and jumped the leeds off the positive side, indicated with a +, of the C1 compasator to the voltage regulator 78dl05 (printed on the regulator its self)
Using electrical tape to hold the C1 end to the board whyle also insulating it from other leeds. Also held the C1 jumper end with my finger during testing. Touched the other end of the jumper to the voltage regulators positive leg (indicated by, + IN).
Useing a long enough jumper to go completely around the board to the front side and touch the large exposed leg.
Its easier and you wont accidently run 12v throught something intended for 5v. If a green LED lights your good to go. By default actually testing the wireing harness tells you their is a fault in the board. And you could test the board under power with a VOM. I just did some research. ( Wish their were more contributions here on iFix)
You will have to cut a couple notches out of the black cover where the wire runs. I dont get to solder much as you can tell. So I backed it up with super glue. Silly, but it works.
If your AC isn't working and your LEDs dont light up on your air flow buttons. Start at this board. New ones are about $175 and takes an hour if your fast to change out most mechanics would charge 2. This was free and took just over 2hr. I could do it in an hour now.
From the pic above you see you can bypass anything.

Happy Monday, ALL!
The "automatically accept next HIT" box at the top used to never be checked unless I checked it.
Now, very sneakily, I might add, the box is automatically checked with certain Requesters.
I often do not realize this until the next OPEN HIT pops up and I have to either do it or return it.
Is there a way to set this box so that it is never checked unless I myself check it?
Thank you for your help and insight,

Veggie Noodle Co Founder Talks $14M Investment & Produce Passion
Last week, produce-centric brand Veggie Noodle Co. announced a minority investment from Encore Consumer Capital. Today, the Austin, Texas-based company released more details surrounding the deal, which was revealed to be a $14 million investment closed in May.
This is the first round of equity-based investment for Veggie Noodle Co., which until now was funded through debt. Spurring the need for capital was the company's need to move into a new production facility, founder and "Veggie Nerd" Mason Arnold told NOSH.
Veggie Noodle Co, founded in July 2015, has been producing their line of spiralized vegetable noodles out of its existing, retrofitted facility. Now the company plans to move into a new plant that will greatly improve their production speed and process because of its size — the custom built plant is over three times the original — and because it's fitted to Veggie Noodle Co's exact specifications.
In the process of developing their lines that are sold in 30-40 retail chains for a total of 2,000 doors, the company has developed several patent pending machines that both improve the production of the noodles as well as the quality and taste of the noodles.
"We're having to create our own machines to make the perfect noodle," Arnold said, "but we think that's going to give us long term competitive advantage. This is what we do all day, every day."
A lack of a custom factory has impeded the company's growth in distribution. Arnold said that rather than steady growth, it's come in spurts.
"It's a stair step [growth pattern] as we build capacity," Arnold said. "So we'll have a quarter or two that's flat and then we implement new processes and we'll take a big jump up and be able to take on new customers. And then rinse and repeat."
The new facility will hopefully, he noted, allow the company to just see continuous growth.
Along with the plant, Arnold said raised funds will go toward expanding the company's current 200-person headcount by 25 percent. In the past year, the company made several key hires, including former Whole Foods Market global produce coordinator Chris Romano as COO and Anish Sheth, founder of pulse snacks brand World Peas Snacks, as VP of sales.In addition to a focus on team, Veggie Noodle plans to invest in R&D and develop more innovative products. Arnold told NOSH the goal is to create items that will continue to help consumers explore new ways to make vegetables part of their lives. While the company's name has somewhat restricted them to noodles, he said they are exploring other categories while in a "healthy debate" regarding whether a name change or brand repositioning is needed.
"When it comes to R&D, we're a processing and consumer insights company. So we are inventing novel ways to process vegetables and we're combining that with customer demand," Arnold said. "Our DNA and culture is around fresh. We want to help get people to eat more vegetables in any format or way that they can, but we think there's a lot of opportunity for fresh vegetables."
Arnold told NOSH Veggie Noodle Co's team is excited to pull from Encore's background in the food and beverage industry, particularly with fresh food companies such as frozen strawberry processor California Splendor, produce distributor FreshKO and shelf stable juice concentrate producer Juice Tyme.
"Produce is a very competitive industry and to be successful, you need have excellence in purchasing, operations, food safety and marketing," Scott Sellers, managing director of Encore Consumer Capital told NOSH. "You can't be weak in any of those areas. We feel that we can leverage our experience in those four areas to guide the company through its current growth phase."
While Encore will bring strategic guidance, Arnold said he thinks he already has a leg up on the competition thanks to a substantial investment in consumer research and his own previous experience in CPG as the former co-founder of Greenling, a local and organic food delivery service.
Before starting the company, Arnold spent six months researching consumer preferences on pack size, noodle taste and texture, and brand positioning. He came away with a belief that while some may say the "spiralized" noodle is a fad, the product fits a rising trend of consumers who are dealing with food allergies and looking to consume more healthy, whole foods.
With a solid foundation in place, Arnold added that the company's narrow focus on this category helps the brand stand out on shelf among the growing private label veggie noodle options.
"The way that we differentiate ourselves is that this is our world. We are constantly focused on our noodles where most of the private labels have other products in their set, where we geek out on the minutia of what makes a good vegetable noodle," Arnold said.
