The legacy of Sir Henry Cole, who invented commercial Christmas cards in the UK and was a founding director of the V&A museum, continues as the museum pledges to run a course aimed at the next generation of greeting card creatives.
Greeting card publisher and illustrator Lucy Ledger has partnered with the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London to offer some workshops focusing on building a creative business. The aim of the initial workshop, to be held on 17 February 2018 is to help both new and established freelancers, artists and designers find the confidence to build or refocus a career utilising their unique talents, with a special focus on greeting cards. The sessions will give guidance on how to develop a strong and authentic personal brand.
Lucy, who has been a qualified illustrator for over 15 years and been running a design studio for eight years, publishes her own range of cards and stationery. Lucy has worked across several creative industry sectors and also offers online courses and mentoring. She says: "It's such a privilege to work with the V&A museum to deliver these workshops. I know how daunting it can be as an artist or designer starting out and finding your own unique voice in such competitive marketplaces. My aim is to give confidence and advice so the students can go away feeling like they have a clear focus on what their next steps will be – and to be able to deliver this session in the world's leading museum of art and design should make it even more inspiring!"
For the afternoon session Lucy has invited fellow greeting card publishers Paper Salad and Rose Hill Designs to talk to participants. The GCA has also been invited to tell the students more about the greeting card sector while there will also be representatives from paper company GF Smith.

Tour continues for 3 weekends this summer
by staff
The 2016 Yadkin Riverkeeper tour of paddling experiences down North Carolina's second longest river will kick off this year with a Paddle-a-thon and continue with 3 other events spread across the summer.
Each year, Yadkin Riverkeeper connects thousands of people, including children, families and civic organizations, to the water and outdoors. For the first time, this year's tour kicks off with paddle-a-thon on June 12th at a new location, Childress Vineyards in Lexington, NC. Paddling days in June take place in Winston-Salem. Paddling in July takes place in Wilkes, NC; and August is in Elkin, NC.
"The tour is our most important program all year," said Will Scott, the Yadkin Riverkeeper. "Each weekend combines paddling the most beautiful stretches of the river with activities that allow paddlers to explore the communities that line its banks. We moved our signature, and most fun event – paddle-a-thon – to May so that we could be on the water in some of the best weather of the year. However, each weekend offers something new and exciting. We hope you bring your friends and families and join us."
The tour features a series of daily paddles each weekend. Novice and experienced paddlers can register for all paddles or for just one day.
2016 PADDLE-A-THON: SATURDAY, June 12th AT 9AM AT CHILDRESS VINEYARDS
The 2016 Yadkin Riverkeeper PADDLE-A-THON, that was originally scheduled for May 21, has been moved to Sunday, June 12. The change in schedule is the result of large rainfalls throughout the riverbed.
The Paddle-A-Thon is Yadkin Riverkeeper's biggest and most fun fundraiser of the year. People collect pledges to paddle 9.3 miles of the Yadkin River, starting and ending at the beautiful Childress Vineyards where there will be food, beverages, music by Joey Edwards & Co (light classic rock) and fun for the whole family. Novice and experienced paddlers can paddle as individuals or in teams with friends. Paddlers are encouraged to raise money from their friends to support the clean water efforts of Yadkin Riverkeeper to keep the Yadkin River fishable, swimmable and drinkable.
Registrations and pledges are accepted online at YadkinRiverkeeper.org which makes it easy to ask friends, family and coworkers to sponsor each paddler's participation and to track their fundraising efforts. Paddlers with their own boats are charged a $20 fee to cover insurance, shuttle, processing fees and entry to the post-paddle-a-thon party. Since this is a fundraiser, paddlers are encouraged to raise a minimum of $50 ($20 entry fee plus $30+ from friends) to get a custom-designed buff and an all-access pass to the post-paddle family-friendly celebration. Raise even more money to qualify to win outdoor gear, trips and more.
This weekend, the TOUR celebrates paddling the Yadkin River around Winston-Salem. On Friday, June 17 at 1PM, join the WFDD Listener Paddle down the 6.9-mile corridor of Pilot Mountain State Park with WFDD celebrities and listeners. Enjoy this scenic and adventurous section of the river with Class I-II+ water. Paddlers will hone their skills on one of the most technical stretches of the Yadkin River (this paddle is not for beginners).
On Saturday, June 18, at 1PM, WFDD-FM sponsors the paddle from Huntsville to Tanglewood Park in Clemmons (10.8 mi). This is a relaxing paddle that's perfect for the whole family. Paddlers meet at Tanglewood Park.
The WFDD Weekend Summer Solstice Paddle and Potluck is Sunday, June 19. Ken and Christine Putnam host this paddle that starts from the Putnam house at 3PM for 9 miles down the river. Then, settle into an evening of music by GULLEY, Winston-Salem's own rock band with a sound that's a little old school, and refreshing enough to please rock lovers and laid-back toe-tappers. Everyone is encouraged to bring a potluck dish to share. During the evening there will be free beer, wine and food.
This weekend, the TOUR floats down one of the most scenic parts of the river around W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir in northwestern North Carolina. On Friday, July 15, the Tour takes to the water to paddle & SUP from Ferguson to Marley's Ford Access (9 miles). There will be camping in the beauty of W. Kerr Scott Lake at Warrior Creek B. Paddlers meet at 1 PM at Keowee Park boat launch at W. Kerr Scott Reservoir. Camping is free, but space is limited, so registration is required.
The weekend continues on Saturday, July 16 with a paddle from Tailwater to Smoot Park (7.1 miles) in W. Kerr Scott Lake. Paddlers meet at 1 PM at Smoot Park in North Wilkesboro, NC 28659.
This weekend is all about paddling and bluegrass music around Elkin, voted one of the "Best Small Towns in America." On Friday, August 19, at 1PM, join the 6.8-mile paddle from Ronda to Crater Park. This is the perfect paddle for a lazy summer afternoon.
On Saturday, August 20, paddle 6 miles from Crater Park to Mitchell River, followed by an evening of wine and bluegrass music at Carolina Heritage Vineyards. Paddlers meet at 1PM at Carolina Heritage Vineyards.
Each paddle day or event requires separate online registration HERE or call 336-722-4949.
For all events, paddlers with their own boats are charged a $20 fee per person per day to cover insurance, shuttle, and processing fees. Yadkin Riverkeeper has negotiated preferred rates for paddlers needing to rent a boat: A kayak (holds one person) rents for an additional $28 per day or a canoe (holds two people) for an additional $44 per day. Camping is free, but requires registration.
Major sponsors of the TOUR are Indera Mills, Childress Vineyards, WFDD-FM and WKZL-FM. Additional support for the Tour comes Carolina Heritage Vineyard and Winery, Christine Rucker Photography, Davidson Country TRIP, Foothills Brewing, Get:Outdoors, Great Outdoor Provision Co. and Waterkeeper Alliance.

AHHH! Gina K. has new colors. I am in love with each and every one of these colors, and I cannot get over them. They fit in marvelously with the colors currently in the Gina K. collection, creating more stamp layering opportunities. The release features ink pads, ink cubes, envelopes, and card stock. I can't even choose which color is my favorite!
Plum punch, however, is pretty high on the list. I cannot stop using it! It is the only color (other than Slate) that is completely unlike any other color in our collection. I just love it.
For this card, I used Plum Punch card stock, and sponged Plum Punch ink over the Water Droplets stencil by Gina K. Designs. I thought tone-on-tone would be just beautiful with this deep color! I die cut a heart out of vellum using a Lawn Fawn stitched heart die, and cut several smaller hearts out of Plum Punch card stock using a Lawn Fawn hearts die set. I added some iridescent jewels by Lucy's Cards for some sparkle.
— This was my first time using the Gina K. Designs Connect Glue. Yikes! Good stuff.
Of course, I had to use the new inks with the Wreath Builder. I used Plum Punch, Sea Glass, Lucky Clover, and good ol' faithful Grass Green. I added iridescent jewels to this card as well, and adhered them with the magical glue.
Is this not the cutest saying?
I will link the products I used below. Don't forget to check out the new Gina K. Designs 2018 colors on the Gina K. Designs website! Make sure you comment on each blog so you are in the running to win the $25 gift certificate for the online store. Good luck!

I think it would be fair to say that only a few years ago the perception of "what a vegan eats" would have been lettuce, tofu and grass! Ok so I'm being silly but for many a world without animal products in their diet would have seemed extreme and boring, particularly as there were very few "direct replacements" for the conventional meat and two veg. Apart from some exotic products that were expensive and not readily availble it was often perceived expensive as well. So its that true or is being vegan cheaper? lets have a look.
The good news is that change has been happening rapidly over the past decade and even more so over the past few years. Infact in 2016 a Mori poll showed that approx 540,000 people over 15 identified as vegan in the UK. Research conducted by comparethemarket.com in 2018 has seen that number increase to over 3 million, a rise of over 600% and almost 7% of the population.
It's no wonder then that major retailers are taking note. Most supermarkets now have their own range of vegan food and these product ranges are seemingly increasing by the week. The same can be said for a vast number of high street restaurants and cafes who now also offer a variety of vegan options. While this should be embraced as good news we want to take a look at the cost of being vegan.
So we are going to ask, is being vegan cheaper or is it more expensive? To help us give our answer we are going to take a look at what we have inside our kitchen cupboards.
What's is a vegan diet?
Hopefully for most of you reading this the answer is pretty straightforward but let's just clarify particularly for those newly vegan. Of course a vegan avoids consumption of all meat and fish products just as a vegetarian would. The difference for most people is that as a vegan you also avoid anything containing eggs, dairy products and honey.
But that's not all because a vegan diet is one that avoids any animal product derivative of which there are many that people are not aware. Some of these ingredients are difficult to spot, especially those used as additives or fillers in processed foods or used during the manufacturing process.
Some of the key ingredients to look out for are the following:
Casein – Casein is a protein derived from animal milk and is the main component in cheese making. Sometimes casein will be added as an ingredient in products that are non-dairy.
Gelatine – Gelatine comes from animal collagen and is a colourless, odourless gelling agent often used in sweets, chewing gums and even some processed foods.
Carmine/Cochineal – Carmine is a pigment from the crushed female cochineal insect. Use primarily as a red colourant for foods particularly sweets and even some fizzy drinks
Isinglass – Isinglass is a clarifying agent derived from fish bladders and used when making wine and brewing beer. Want to know more about vegan booze? See our article asking Is Alcohol Vegan?
Whey – Whey is the liquid that remains once milk has been curdled and then strained. It is often used for cakes, cookies, sweets, speciality breads and often added to nutritional shakes.
So a vegan diet is one that avoids food where any animal product or derivative has been used either as an ingredient a bye product or as part of the manufacturing process. So now let's try and answer that question, is being vegan cheaper or more expensive?
The cost of switching to vegan
The reason for writing this post was because I have received a number of comments from people saying that they would like to try a vegan diet but they can't afford to. Also people who have recently transitioned saying that their shopping bill has increased. I do occasionally receive comments from new vegans saying how delighted they are that they are not only eating healthier and not harming animals but are also saving on their shopping bill. So why the different points of view? let's take a look.
The chances are that the majority of those who find they are spending more on their food after a transition to a vegan diet have been raised on the standard British/American diet of meat, potato and a possibly a side dish of veggies. Because of this tradition switching to an entirely new plate display and palette of tastes can be difficult at first. This is where many of the mock meats and "traditional" food replacements came in to play.
As we noted earlier virtually all major supermarkets now have their own range of vegan products many of which are "direct replacements" for the traditional meat dish. The creativity and quality of these meat imitating dishes is impressive making them perfect transition foods for someone coming from a standard British American omnivorous diet.
However, we now come to the cost issue, our research has shown that the vast majority of those who find that a vegan diet is costing them more is because they are primarily buying a mix of pre-prepared omnivorous meal replacements as well as mock meats and cheeses. While we absolutely agree there is a place for this kind of food, (we love the happy pear vegan shepherd's pie on a winters day!), a move away from this kind of food to a more whole food plant based diet is one we would recommend.
After all if you have been brave enough to change to a vegan diet for the animals and the environment why not also consider your health and your pocket. Let's explore this idea further
Being Vegan is Cheaper – and healthier to.
A quote I use often when asked about my lifestyle is that "I am vegan for the animals and the planet and eat a whole food plant based diet for my health". From our own personal experience I could easily expand this quote to say for my health and my wallet. My answer to the original question in the title of this post, is being vegan cheaper? for us is a resounding yes.
Why is this, well mainly because we have always prepared fresh dishes utilising lots of legumes, grains, fruits and veggies. As omnivores we would use meat, fish and dairy in our cooking and removing these from our diet and replacing them with plant based wholefood alternatives has actually saved us money. Let's look at some specific examples of replacements we would use in place of meat.
Mince beef – today in our local supermarket (as I write this I am in Las Palmas) 1kg of lean mince beef is 7 euros while a 1kg of fresh red lentils is only 2,30 euros and red kidney beans come in at only 1.85 per kg. Chicken – well currently 1kg of chicken breast is 6,25 euros but 1kg of chickpeas only 1,85. There are of course exceptions, plant milk is typically more expensive than dairy but this does not constitute our main meal ingredient.
In our experience cooking fresh and replacing your old meat ingredients with healthier plant based options you will save money.
What's in our Kitchen? – Our Vegan Essentials.
So you are vegan but so far your diet has been mainly pre-packaged meals and meat substitutes but now it's time to move on and stock your kitchen with the staples required to make delicious, nutritious and cost effective plant-based meals at home.
Ideally certain items should always be found in your kitchen so you are able to throw together a tasty nutritious vegan dish at a moment's notice. Let's have a look at what we typically have in our kitchen. Our longer lasting vegan items include:
- Legumes such as lentils, chickpeas and all kinds of beans
- Grains such as buckwheat, oats, quinoa and wholegrain rice
- Canned beans (all kinds)
- Canned tomatoes (chopped and whole)
- Dried herbs and spices we currently have over 25 from anise to turmeric!
- Plant milk cartons always unsweetened (usually oat and almond) and always an Oatley barista for my coffee!
- Raw nuts such as almonds, walnuts and cashews
- Raw seeds such as pumpkin, chia, hemp and sesame
- Sauces and oils such as tamari, sesame, flax and olive
- Vinegars such as apple cider, balsamic and white
- Whole grain pasta including whole wheat, spelt, quinoa and brown rice
- Whole grain flours including chickpea, buckwheat and oat
We always have the majority of these items in our cupboards. We recommend that you always maintain a stock and the best way to do this is to have an ongoing shopping list. As soon as you open the last of a particular item make sure you add it to the list for your next shop that way you will never be without these core ingredients
What's in our vegan fridgefreezer
Most the time I love opening our fridge door, why, well because it is usually full with such a range of wonderful colours it reminds how lucky we are to have such options available. Of course there are occasions when stocks get a bit low but typically all that is required is some basic planning and an ongoing shopping list to keep your fridge nicely stocked.
Our fridge is of course our temporary storage space where our perishables are kept and where items come and go a lot quicker. In our fridge, we normally have:
- Open cartons of plant milks
- Open and left over sauces such as mustard, salad dressings and vinegars
- Open packages of seeds and nuts
- A whole range of salad items (with the majority being local and seasonal)
- A whole range of vegetables (with the majority being local and seasonal)
- Cut or peeled fruits
- Meal leftovers
- Tofu, tempeh and seitan
- Vegan cheese and mayonnaise (yes we do have this as well!)
- Cooked grains or beans
This would be a typical representation of what's in our fridge. Planning is always key so we will normally have a plan for the leftovers. Cooked grains or beans can be added to whatever dish you are preparing particularly salads. Cut veggies, fruits and salads are always best kept in the fridge. Let's get a bit colder and go to the freezer
Let's cool things down a bit more and look at how best to use your freezer. A freezer is a great asset if you know how to use it properly. Take advantage of the ingredients you have when meal prepping and produce extra and freeze for another day. This can be done with complete meals and with leftovers for when you don't have time to cook or just don't feel like it.
Freeze fruit that is going to over-ripen and use for smoothies. Precook grains and freeze so that they are readily available to be added to a meal when time is short. Our top tip for the freezer are ripe bananas. If your bananas are becoming overripe or if they are on offer at the market, peel them and put them in the freezer.
On a summers day you can mix the frozen banana with blueberries, or indeed any other fruit, in a slow blender to produce a natural fruit "ice cream"
Top tips to make "being vegan cheaper"
Ok so we know that certain processed meat and cheese alternatives make the transition to veganism a lot easier for some as they move from the traditional American British plate which is heavy in animal products. We know that this transition may well increase the cost of their weekly shop.
We also know that a well-stocked kitchen and a little creativity will mean that you can prepare and consume tasty healthy and economic plant based meals whenever hunger strikes. So let's finish with 10 simple tips to a make being vegan cheaper.
Learn some simple recipes and prepare your own meals. Simple doesn't have to be boring and we will soon have a long list of simple recipes added to the site but until then check out our top vegan books for beginners to get some ideas.
Love whole foods. Plant based whole foods should be the base of any healthy diet. The best thing about these tasty nutritious foods is that they are also the cheapest ones
Buy local and in season. Foods that are local and seasonal not only taste better but also are a lot cheaper
Buy in bulk. Larger packs often provide better value for money. Check out the unit cost by weight or volume to make sure you are getting the best deal
Freeze leftovers. We have already mentioned this but freeze leftovers, a small portion of one day's dinner will make a nice lunch for another day. Both fruit and veg can be frozen to make smoothies or soups
Buy frozen. Frozen fruits and vegetables can often be a great alternative when seasonal options aren't available. They are usually flash frozen to retain their nutritional profile and of course won't perish.
Do your research. If you have various local food markets or supermarkets close by research to find the best deals across the different stores. You may find there are foods on offer you haven't previously cooked with and this could be your opportunity to try something new!
Use the farmers market. If you are lucky enough to have a local farmers market use it. Not only will you be supporting local business but often the produce is cheaper than large chain supermarkets. Visiting at the end of the day can also be great for discounted produce
Grow your own. Of course not something that we can all do but even if it is only a window ledge of herbs such as basil or mint, it will save you money, is really satisfying and you know it will be fresh and organic.
Plan ahead. Before heading out to shop be sure to plan your meals and make a shopping list of the ingredients you need. Think about portion sizes and making extra to freeze. Always take in to consideration foods you already have that may need to be used.
So what's the answer is being vegan cheaper? Well the truth is it's entirely up to you.

Ratings agency Moody's has downgraded its long-term outlook for Debenhams and warned that the retailer's profits are likely to come under even more pressure than expected given the "aggressive" pricing strategies of its peers.
Moody's has changed the corporate family rating for Debenhams to Caa1, down from B2, and downgraded the "probability of default" rating – which measures the relative likelihood that a company will default on one or more of its debt obligations – to Caa1-PD from B2-PD.
The outlook on the ratings has been placed as stable.
David Beadle, Moody's vice president, credit officer and lead analyst for Debenhams, said: "Downgrading Debenhams to Caa1 reflects the challenges it faces to improve its credit quality during 2019 in order to achieve a timely and cost effective refinancing of its current debt facilities
"In the meantime however, we expect the company to at least stabilise profitability, materially improve net cash generation, and for its liquidity to remain adequate."
It comes only two months after Moody's downgraded Debenhams from B1 to B2, stating at the time that its weaker than expected profitability was "inconsistent" with a B1 rating.
In late October, the retailer revealed plans to close up to 50 stores over five years after posting the biggest losses in its history.
It made a £491.5m statutory pre-tax loss for the year to 1 September 2018 – down from a £59m profit the previous year. EBITDA fell by 27.5% to £157.3m. Underlying profit before tax more than halved, dropping 65.1% to £33.2m.
Moody's said the results were in line with its expectations at the time of the August downgrade. However, it predicts that Debenhams' profits will come under more pressure than previously anticipated in the run-up to Christmas season, as the competitive environment is highly challenging".
It also expects the pricing strategies of Debenhams' department store peers to remain "very aggressive".
"For example House of Fraser, which emerged from administration in mid-August, now plans to keep more stores open than envisaged under previous ownership and the rating agency expects it to be focused on reinvigorating its appeal to customers."

The past year has seen TMT represent broadcasters, technology companies and online service providers in contentious issues, as well as serving clients in the pharma and aerospace fields.
Peers were quick to praise the work of managing partner Abhishek Malhotra, leader of the firm's IP, competition and litigation functions. He has 13 years of experience as a practising advocate and is well-versed in the prosecution and defence of IP suits as well as the drafting and negotiation of transaction agreements.
In the past the firm has advised the likes of Google, Cinepolis India, Hexaware Technologies, Tata Sky, Sony Entertainment Television, Piramal Healthcare and Orange. Last year saw it represent the Indian Broadcasting Foundation in petitions challenging the implementation of digitisation in India, and the Association of Radio Operators of India in a music licensing case against various recording companies.

Sports Authority bankruptcy sends aftershocks through sporting goods industry
The first dominoes are starting to fall from Sports Authority's entrance into bankruptcy.
At one end, sporting goods giant Dick's Sporting Goods is licking its chops and drafting plans to capitalize on Sports Authority's closing stores. At the other, key vendors are prepping their financials in light of the fifth-largest sporting goods retailer filing for Chapter 11.
Dick's CEO Ed Stack said Tuesday, following the release of tepid fourth-quarter results, said that his firm would look to pick up market share in the areas where Sports Authority is closing stores. Additionally, Dick's would consider purchasing some of those closing stores' leases.
Separately, Performance Sports Group Ltd. — which manufactures sports equipment such as Easton bats, Bauer hockey skates and Maverik lacrosse sticks — made a gash in its fiscal 2016 expectations. The "Chapter 11 filing by one of the largest U.S. national sporting goods retailers" was partly to blame, company officials said Tuesday. Read more…

Bolivian prisoners cancel hunger strike
Inmates at one of Bolivia's most dangerous prisons have ended their hunger strike after reaching an agreement with prison officials over increasing their food payments.
Prisons National Director Jorge Lopez said that approximately 500 prisoners cancelled their food strike on Thursday after accepting an adjustment to their daily food budget and other benefits.
The 50-year-old Palmasola maximum security prison, with about 5,000 prisoners, is said to hold about ten times more inmates than its capacity.
The prisoners went on hunger strike three days ago to protest their short daily food budget.
Some prisons in the South American country have kitchens and employ prisoners or staff to prepare their own food, while many use staff from on-site catering companies and charge money for the food.

Anime is dead. Long live Anime.
Talk has arisen once again about the mysterious forces conspiring to kill anime, but how accurate are these tales of woe? Are cute girls really the harbingers of death? Join us this week as we discuss the major theories predicting the end of anime as we know it!
Spring is well under way! What are your top picks now that we're halfway through the season?
This rising temperatures, the hype of the Spring season is setting the stage for a good year in Anime! This week we talk about a bunch of shows we didn't have time to get to last week, as well as some updates on some of the seasons favorites!
When it comes to anime, how sexy is too sexy?
Anime is always treading the balance between plausability and impossibility, and between seriousness and loads of animu boobies. Where do you draw the line on how much the story can warp reality? How many pantsu shots is too many? We're here to weigh in on this most important topic facing modern art today!
Are harems better when the protagonist is weak-willed, or when he takes what he wants?
In a revamping of our old review style show, we come together to collectively review Kokoro Connect and School Days! Both have guys going after girls, but one has mystical interlopers and the other has a complete lack of empathy! Which one is better? Listen to find out!
Those little things can easily make or break a show, and relatable characters are no different.
"Relatable" is a common term used to describe good characters, but it is so often not backed by much other than "relatable". Do people even know what this mean? (protip: Nick doesn't) In this episode we chat about characters that are relatable to us, and what makes them so, as well as touching on some of those little things that make us furious or fall in love.
Kwoka is still in Tokyo so the rest of gang is here to talk about the Spring Season! What shows have clawed their way up from humble beginnings and which shows have stumbled and tripped on the fast track to success?

We also read some iTunes reviews and talk about the upcoming Summer Season! What shows are you looking forward to? What shows you already dreading hearing all about?
The gang watches Gunbuster (1988) and Diebuster (2004) and then proceed to berate eachother over which one is better.
2 great shows, 2 best girls, 2 massive robots, and 1 amazing return to earth. Listen as our hosts dive into what makes a short OVA series great, while slowly building animosity towards eachothers' terrible taste.
Some shows were just born to be put together to make terribly beautiful bastard children. And we're here to talk about them!
The spring season is over! We've been taken on daring patrols through space and seen impressionable shrine maidens quake in terror before the public eye! But was any of it good?
The gang is back to review this Spring 2016 anime season that we poured all our hopes and dreams into. Were the trains attacks worth staying up for? Did TRIGGER save anime? Listen and find out!

Practice makes perfect. But should that practice be purely focused on one sport to achieve perfection?
The term 'early specialisation' is often discussed by sports scientists and psychologists when looking to answer this question. Most discussions focus on the long-term negative impacts this can have on a child's development as a sports person, both physically and mentally – but, in dispelling one aspect, we often forget to acknowledge the other. So, the question we ask is what are the benefits of getting our children to play as many different sports as possible?
More sports = better overall physical development
Grab a dumbbell and start doing bicep curls and only bicep curls every day. What will the result be? You'll probably have stronger and larger biceps than anyone else, but that's about it.
The same exercise can be applied when we think of our child's physical development through sport. Each individual sport has its own physical demands that help shape and develop the body differently. Playing a single sport results in the body being trained to respond and move in a certain way. Anything outside of this is often harder for the body to adapt to and learn and can increase the chance of injury through overuse or lack of development.
When children play lots of different sports there is a reduced risk of developing overuse injuries.
Transferable skillset
The same muscles that help a basketball player take a jump shot are used to help a swimmer push off the starting block, or the hand-eye coordination needed to return a tennis shot will also help guide a six over the boundary in cricket. We can't pigeonhole our thinking that skillsets aren't transferable between sports.
Did you know that some of the world's and New Zealand greatest athletes played multiple sports as kids? New Zealand Women's rugby star Portia Woodman was lined up to be a professional netballer before being invited to attend a rugby sevens trial in her early 20s. It's also well documented that former New Zealand cricket captain Brendon McCullum was also an outstanding rugby player growing up.
The benefits of playing lots of different sports are that you more likely to develop a breadth of movement and skills.
Allowing our children to make the choice to specialise in a particular sport later in life with a base holistic skillset will help make them a better performing athlete.
Learn to love what they play
Monotony gets the better of all of us in life and the same applies to our children's sporting experience. Repetition is boring, and over time it takes its toll on how much a child ultimately falls in love with sport. The result is often dropout or burnout in children before they reach their full sporting potential.
Variety breaks it up, offers new challenges and keeps it fun. We end up having children who are enjoying and falling in love with sport and not just playing sport. The goal is to have children who are self-motivated to participate and succeed through a love of trying to improve themselves and sport.

Standard Operating Procedures are ways of doing things that we have found to be the (currently) best and most efficient way of doing what we do. SOPs are one of the few places where the Fuel Rats Mischief is somewhat rigid in how we do stuff; primarily because NOT doing things according to the SOP risks our clients' lives. We have the ability to experiment outside of the rescues, and if we think that something is being done in a less than optimal way, we can attempt to refine our process there.
However, when the SOP is not working, thinking outside the box is encouraged. But the SOP should always be your first recourse before other things are tried.
General Rat SOP
These are for all Rats
Dispatch SOP
These are for dispatchers
The SOP sit in that strange grey zone between rules and guidelines. If you are unsure on whether you should strictly follow SOP, or if you can deviate from them, read The scope of SOP

I never knew the importance of a meal plan until I got one from fitness goddess and my personal trainer, April Ferguson. I had always been a pretty healthy but luscious eater, if that makes sense. Everyone says, as long as you exercise you can eat whatever you want. Wrong. April says that if you cut yourself in half and see exactly what our bodies had to digest that I wouldn't even eat half of the groceries I think are healthy. No matter how much any one works out it really cancels itself out if you aren't eating properly, clean and raw based, nothing processed.
Meal planning is the advanced planning of the menu for the next few days, weeks or even the entire month. This plan allows you to not only plan your meals to be prepare but as well as shop for the items that need to be purchased to prepare them so you're not wasting time and money on unnecessary and usually unhealthy food. Meal planning is important because it helps to ensure the meals meet your nutritional needs, as well as manage your grocery budget. When meals are well planned in advance you are ensuring that you are receiving your daily requirements of nourishment specifically tailored to you and your goals and your budget. You'd be surprised at the money you save too by sticking to the plan.
Below is an example of 1 day of my meal plan:
Drink minimum 3 litres of water throughout the day.
Meal #1:
Carbs: 40 – 50 grams oatmeal
Protein: 2 egg whites
Fibre: 1 tbs mix (chia, hemp, goji berry mix)*
Meal #2:
Evolv shake only 1 1/2 scoops, add 1 tbs mix* and 2 tbs of berries
(Evolv SHAKE uses a nutritious blend of natural ingredients and vitamins using only naturally-sourced, low GI sweeteners. It is the first of its kind to contain the patented, all-natural, USDA-developed ingredients CalorieControlTrim® and ModCarb™, both rich in health-supporting oat beta glucans.)
Meal #3:
Protein: 2 tbs hemp
Carbs: 1/3 cup organic quinoa
Veggeis: 2 cups plant based
Meal #4:
8 Mary crackers w/ 2 tbs of cream cheese spread and 1/4 avocado for healthy fats.
Meal #5:
4 ounces of extra lean ground turkey
2 cups of steamed veggies
Salsa and spice to taste
Meal #6:
Evolv shake 1 1/2 scoop, add cinnamon and nutmeg NO fruit
New meal plans must created every 4 weeks. It's like shampoo or creams, you eventually get used to them so you need to switch it up. Contact April for your meal plan and watch those pounds drop in even a few weeks! ~@RinaChong

On the evening of Sofia Claremont's seventeenth birthday, she is sucked into a nightmare from which she cannot wake. A quiet evening walk along a beach brings her face to face with a dangerous pale creature that craves much more than her blood. She is kidnapped to an island where the sun is eternally forbidden to shine. An island uncharted by any map and ruled by the most powerful vampire coven on the planet. She wakes here as a slave, a captive in chains. Sofia's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn when she is the one selected out of hundreds of girls to join the harem of Derek Novak, the dark royal Prince. Despite his addiction to power and obsessive thirst for her blood, Sofia soon realizes that the safest place on the island is within his quarters, and she must do all within her power to win him over if she is to survive even one more night. Will she succeed? ...or is she destined to the same fate that all other girls have met at the hands of the Novaks?It's been a while since I have read a vampire story, and I'm quite mad at myself for having this so long and not reading it sooner.
A shade of Vampire dives right into the plot, with Sofia being kidnapped right off the beach. She's scared, not knowing what is going to happen to her, until she is finally paraded off, scrubbed cleaned, and made to look glamorous for the Royal Prince, Derek Novak, who has just awaken.
Sofia catches Derek's eye, and also that of his older brother, which will be a huge problem. Sofia shows how strong she is by protecting the other girls, and never give up hope of escape. However, she starts to see that Derek isn't evil as they all portray.
This story heads straight into the plot, there's definitely no beating around the bush. The Vampire society created was fun, and it was a really fast read. It definitely has a twist at the end, that will make you want to continue with the series. So if you have the LOVE of a vampire story, with a unique twist in love, this one is for you!

From 5k to the full Great North Run, there's no stopping Sally now!
"Last year I joined Newcastle Can, started running for the first time in years and took on the Great North 5k with Hugh and a whole bunch of other Newcastle Can community members. This year, I'm doing the FULL Great North Run!
You can't say it was unexpected. I'd put in for the ballot, I knew the results were out last week. I had no idea how they sort through the entries or what my odds of success were, or how I'd react!
When I found out that my entry had been successful, my immediate reaction was a mixture of excitement and terror. A year ago I hadn't done any exercise bar walking for decades and was wondering how I could. Five months ago I was questioning whether I'd be able to run the whole of my first 5k. Now, I realised when I opened the email, I'm fairly confident I'll be completing my first half marathon in September.
I'm not used to being confident! It's a weird feeling.
If I hadn't got involved with Newcastle Can I'd probably still be doing no exercise bar walking, gaining weight and wondering how to start doing something about it. What I've found by being involved with Newcastle Can is that the tiniest changes can make a massive difference. Every successful change, no matter how small, gives you the confidence to try the next one. And as your confidence grows you're prepared to try bigger changes, bigger challenges.
I'm not comfortable being the centre of attention. I don't feel like I'm doing anything unusual. I blame myself for getting so overweight and inactive rather than celebrating myself for dragging myself into healthier habits. I'm practicing being kinder to myself.
I'm still worrying that next time I eat cake or chips in public someone will call me out for being a hypocrite!
I don't think I'm exceptional.
But I'm realising the most inspiring people are ordinary.
A million professional athletes displaying incredible endurance are not going to persuade someone like me – middle aged, obese and stuck in a rut of no exercise – that they can do it. But it seems one Sally – sweaty and straining, keeping at it and sharing the struggles as well as the successes – does show people in similar circumstances that they can do it too.
The first time someone told me they'd started the couch to 5k programme because they'd been inspired by my running I was stunned. Several people have told me that now and it really fills me with joy. This is exactly what Newcastle Can is about, ordinary people making sustainable changes that make a positive difference to their health and sharing that with their communities.
I've been saying since that first run – if I can, anyone can! It's great to know people are!
Now I need to get training!
Wish me luck".

The Southern Baptist Convention's Executive Committee has voted to disfellowship New Heart Community Church in La Mirada, CA, due to their position to "affirm, approve, or endorse homosexual behavior," which violates Article III of the SBC Constitution. Danny Cortez, the pastor of New Heart, advocates a "third way" in which their leaders can hold varying perspectives regarding same-sex marriage, the Baptist Press reports.
BP also reports that Cortez attended the Executive Committee meeting, addressing both the by-laws and administrative committee—both of whom prayed for Cortez and his church. The vote to disfellowship was unanimous. Cortez endorsed homosexuality back in February, causing a ripple effect and thus this addressing of the issue at the Executive Committee.
In reality, the SBC EC had little choice. Southern Baptists have long stood on the biblical truth of one man-one woman union in marriage, and will not change that direction anytime soon—for which I am grateful. This will not be the last church to come to such conclusions—and it's not the first. But through this, we see patterns that have plagued churches faithfulness to Scripture throughout history—and New Heart's position is no exception.
People first, Scripture second. Cortez shared that "I recently became gay affirming after a 15-year journey of having multiple people in my congregation come out to me every year." The danger for all pastors is to look at people's situations, then judge whether the Scriptures ties in to the 'reality' of their situation.
An appeal to biblical 'context.' In Cortez's February 2014 sermon, he argued "Romans 1 does not condemn all homosexual acts but only those committed in a spirit of violence or unbridled lust. He said modern homosexual relationships are different from the ancient forms of homosexuality Paul was referencing" (BP). Let's look at the passage to which he refers:
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another,men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
One does not need to know Greek to recognize that Paul (and ultimately the Holy Spirit) does not give any distinction—especially the distinction of 'a spirit of violence or unbridled lust.' The act of homosexuality itself is a shameless act. It's a difficult task to appeal to context, especially when every portion of Scripture looks at homosexuality as harmful to self and soul (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Galatians 5:19-21, etc.).
The core principle is a failure to honor, thank, worship, or acknowledge God" (Romans 1:18-32). Appealing to context is a way to lessen God's clear Word for personal and 'loving' purposes, thus taking away the necessary accountability needed.
The pattern continues in that those who disagree with Cortez's stance reflect a lack of love for homosexuals. Do we want an ancient document like the Bible to squelch the love we should have for those, even loving them to the point of affirming their lifestyle choice?
Then there's a stark denial of orthodox truth. I echo Frank Page, EC President: we love all with the truth, and pray for those who say they love Christ but turn from His Word to repent. God calls pastors to serve as stewards of the truth of God's Word—not to find a third way between holiness and sin.
Mike Routt, fellow Colorado pastor who serves as chairman of the SBC EC as well as pastor of Circle Drive Baptist Church in Colorado Springs, rightly said, ""Mr. Cortez, the issue is not just about homosexuality. It is about the collision of our orthodox faith and your radical theology. We advocate Jude 3: Contend for the faith that was once entrusted to the saints. You advocate reinterpreting the faith that was once entrusted to the saints."
So from an associational level to a state convention level to now the Executive Committee, the SBC continues to take a necessary stand. The enemy's arrows may come, but here they stand. I know a number of men serving on that committee, and they've stayed consistent and true to their love of Scripture and the Savior it proclaims.
Again, I'm grateful!
