RAT's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (North)
Rats need to be on their guard this month with the presence of the #5 Yellow Misfortune Star, which is poised to bring unfortunate energy. When this wu wang arrives, it's best to lie low and avoid risks of any type. Fortunately, Rats enjoy a good life force which gives strength when it's needed the most. As extra precaution, feng shui help from the 5 Element Pagoda Keychain or Tri-Coloured 5 Element Pagoda Keychain is advised. Carry this with you, perhaps as a keychain or clipped to a purse. Placing the Tri-Coloured 5 Element Pagoda (6 in) or 6 inch Trinity Pagoda in your North sector is another bit of advice. When the #5 is present, energy is off due to too much negativity. Wearing white or metallic colors adds metal elements, and stay away from wearing red or yellow. You can also wear a HUM Pendant. At work, keep a low profile and stay with what you've already started. This isn't a time to try to excel or make yourself known. In fact, speaking up could do more harm than good. If possible, take a brief break – get away and clear the energy.
Love is not favorable and arguments could arise out of minor misunderstandings. This isn't the time to try to win a point with a partner. Walk away from a fight, or give in to your partner's wishes right now. Singles could do well to save serious dating till next month. Wear a 3-Round High Grade Morganite and display a Crystal Ball - Rose Quartz in your bedroom to enhance love luck. Students may struggle to get along with school mates and become angered easier than usual. Parents, beware of a child's anger, too! Wear a Rose Quartz Calligraphy Brush Pendant.
OX's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Northeast)
The #3 Quarrelsome Star arrives with a strong bolt of anger, making it difficult to get along with others. It also affects your finances, so avoid any risky investments or bold moves and you can at least retain the wealth you have. What you do or say could get you in trouble now, because others could easily take offense. Avoid arguments or office gossip at work and try to get along with co-workers. You'll feel competition and could do well if your attitude stays in check. There is an indication that hiring a new employee would be best left for another time. And let others work on their own rather than trying to help them – it could backfire. Feng shui advice suggests working against the #3 with Fire elements such as a Two-Sided Flaming Magic Wheel Plaque or Red Eagle to Overcome Quarrelsome Star in your Northeast sector and perhaps red pillows or lampshades placed in the area. Carry a Tzi Chi Kau Red Dog Amulet Keychain or Apple Peace Hanging Keychain or wear a Strawberry Quartz Bracelet or Zhanguo Warring States Red Agate Bracelet.
Your negative and angry attitude affects your love life, as well. Those in a relationship could find arguments arising without warning, so watch what you say or do. If you are too temperamental with a partner, they could seek comfort with someone else. To help avoid this, carrying a Marriage Saver Keychain is wise feng shui protection as well as wearing a Morganite crystal. Singles should stick to casual dating rather than trying to move into a serious relationship, because your temper could put someone off before your bond can grow.
TIGER's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Northeast)
While Tigers are plagued by the #3 Quarrelsome Star, they still have some luck now if they can tame the angry energy. It could feel like a rollercoaster, as good luck occurs and then less favorable luck follows. You'll still be able to meet deadlines but will do best to keep to yourself at work and not try to draw attention to yourself. It's not the best month to depend on co-workers for support, and you could alienate them by trying to express your opinions too strongly. This isn't a good time to sign documents or enter contracts. Forming new partnerships should also be avoided; disagreements and even legal troubles could result otherwise. To work against the #3 energy, feng shui experts suggest carrying the Peace and Harmony Amulet and displaying Crystal Sphere on Star of David Symbol - Yellow Jasper or Crystal Spheres on Star of David Symbol - Rose Quartz on your desk at home or the office in the Northeast. You can also wear a 999 Pure Gold Laughing Buddha Hetian Jade Pendant and hang a Golden Tibetan Double Dorje Phurba Tassel in your car.
Love could be threatened by a triangle or affair now; those who are married or in a serious relationship must use caution. Your angry energy, or that of your partner, could cause one of you to seek comfort elsewhere. To help save the relationship, place an Amethyst Geode Bejeweled Pendant underneath your bed, tied with a red string. It might even be necessary to carry the Rooster with Fan and Amethyst Keychain or wear a Amethyst Fox Adjustable Ring if things get out of control in romantic endeavors.
RABBIT's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (East)
It will take every bit of energy and feng shui help for Rabbits to endure this month because of an abundance of Metal energy from the #7 Robbery Star. The #7 threatens the possibility of a robbery, betrayal by a loved one or friend, or loss of money. Be careful who you spend time with now and don't trust anyone completely. It's more necessary than ever to surround yourself with feng shui cures as protection. Carry or wear the Ten Hum with Double Dorje Wheel Keychain or perhaps the Kuan Kung with Anti Burglary Amulet. Adding Water energy to your environment can help balance the increased Metal energy. This could mean putting a water feature in your home's East sector, or wearing blues or blacks. Display a Blue Rhinocerous and Elephant on Water and wear a blue Kyanite Crystal Bracelet. Work is stressful and it's possible someone is trying to sabotage your work so double check what you do and steer clear of others to avoid misunderstandings.
Love and romance suffer now with minor disagreements turning heated and harmful if you're not careful. It's not the time to try to win an argument with a partner – walk away or just let the moment pass or the relationship could suffer. A third party could try to enter and betray you, getting into the good graces and emotions of your partner if you're not alert to this. Place an Amethyst Geode Bejeweled Pendant underneath your bed, tied with a red string or hang it on your bedside. Carry the 9-Tailed White Fox Amulet for Mesmerizing Love or wear a Amethyst Fox Adjustable Ring.
DRAGON's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Southeast)
Auspicious luck surrounds Dragons now, especially in financial and friendship matters. If there's an idea you've had in mind to create a new business or product, this is the time. Opportunities are all around and energy is positive. Your energy and enthusiasm carry you far now in business matters. To make the most of this energy, awaken wealth and business luck with the use of the Mandala Offering with Gemstones or Bejewelled Pair of Carp in the Southeast. Take a Lotus Mirror Fan into a meeting, and wear the Rutilated Quartz Pendant or Wealth Pot Phantom Bracelet to enhance your luck. It's a good time to invest in projects you believe in – trust your instincts and listen to a wise mentor who offers to help. Donating to charity is a feng shui suggestion to encourage wealth. As money goes out, more comes in. Hang a Jade Feng Shui Five Gold Ingots Tassel in your car.
Love is exciting and romance is fiery with excitement this month. If you've been in a relationship, this could be the perfect time to take the next step, whether it's an engagement or marriage, or just strengthening the commitment. Singles could find a special someone now – be open-minded and don't hesitate to reach out if someone catches your eye. Wearing a Madagascar Rose Quartz Framed Pendant or Heart Shape Gold Meteorite Pendant with 925 Silver Frame helps draw deep love and commitment to you.
SNAKE's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Southeast)
Snakes are blessed with auspicious luck now, bringing happiness and success their way. Wealth improves and career ventures expand. It's ok to be a bit risky right now – energy favors you and you don't want to miss out on something out of fear. To maximize potential for career luck, call upon the Lotus Mirror Fan. Wave it before entering an important meeting. And wearing the 925 Silver Mystic Knot Pendant with Yellow Swarovski Crystals or Citrine Pyramid Bracelet (High Grade) is another feng shui suggestion, especially when you spin it each day to keep prosperity luck activated. This is a highly favorable month for career matters with solid results from the work you've put in leading to this moment. You may even receive a promotion or added responsibilities that help you advance.
Romance blossoms for Snakes. If you feel something for someone, there's no better time to let them know. Making the first move looks to be favorably received, even if you plan to propose to someone. Singles could find their special someone now and want to settle down. Married Snakes find passion heating up, even if the marriage has felt a bit stale lately. Wear an Aquamarine Heart Shape Pendant or Heart Shape Gold Meteorite Pendant with 925 Silver Frame to boost love luck.
HORSE's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (South)
Horses should rejoice this month. They have more than a normal amount of happiness, a huge improvement over last month. Friendships and love are favored and your good mood spills over to all areas of your life. At work, your charisma helps you persuade people to accept your ideas and follow your lead. This is a good time for negotiations or agreements since others approve of you. Even a slightly risky plan could go well now, though you should use a small bit of caution and make sure you don't ruffle someone else's feathers. Going it alone isn't necessarily an endearing way of doing business this month. This month's luck can be boosted by placing a Brass 7-Level Feng Shui Pagoda or Clear Crystal Globe (l) in the South. Carry a Scholastic Keychain.
Friendship is heightened now and perhaps making a new friend through social activities or networking could lead to a trusted ally later. Love is also in the air for those who seek it out or who want to deepen a relationship, but so much else is going on that's positive, it may take a slight back seat. Display a Rose Quartz Mandarin Ducks on Lotus Leaf (M) in your bedroom if you want love luck to blossom. Students have study luck and exams go well. Even if you are busier than usual, if you work hard, success is available. Even a new course you'd not thought of before appeals to you and offers scholastic benefits. Display a Clear Quartz Crystal Point on your study desk and carry a Scholastic Keychain.
SHEEP's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Southwest)
Follow your instincts – they'll lead you to exciting opportunities and wealth potential this month. Your strong attitude and enthusiasm help you focus on what's needed to succeed. Opportunities don't necessarily just appear before you, though – keep your eyes and ears open to information about these success projects and act on them. One good path to success comes from a mentor who could offer advice or open a door for you – listen and learn from this person. This could be a boss or someone new that you meet, so be alert. Mentor luck can be attracted by placing a Precious Minister Holding Windchime or Kuan Yin Bringing Abundance in the SW. Your success won't come all at once, but this month certainly sets the groundwork and good fortune begins to appear. See each achievement as a stepping stone toward a long-range goal. Carry a Ratnasambhava Buddha Keychain or Royal Emblems Mirror.
Friendship is favored now and you'll be popular with old and new acquaintances. Socialize and network, because it could introduce you to a new friend or ally. And love could be found at a social event, too. Love won't come knocking on your door – get out, mingle and be open to romance. Wear or hang in your car a Madagascar Rose Quartz Framed Pendant or Aquamarine Heart Shape Pendant to enhance love luck.
MONKEY's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Southwest)
An exciting month ahead for Monkeys, with #6 Heaven Luck bringing blessings and opportunities for wealth and love. Put plans into action that you've been dreaming about, because it's an auspicious time to make dreams come true. Your co-workers and a boss notice you and admire your attitude and work ethics. This could lead to a promotion or financial bonus, though don't take it for granted. A few small investment risks are acceptable now, if you study the opportunity and follow your instincts. It could feel like someone is looking out for you – believe in this heavenly possibility! To fully awaken mentor luck, carry the Ratnasambhava Buddha Keychain or Royal Emblems Mirror and let it guide you. Place the Precious Minister Holding Windchime or 6 Heaven Gold Coin Plaque in the SW.
Love is happy now and your partner responds to you, offering romance but also comfort and support. Take time to comfort them, as well. Singles have many admirers, so play the field rather than rushing into something just to "be in love." Wear a Madagascar Rose Quartz Framed Pendant for good love and romance luck. Students have excellent scholastic potential now and a mentor in the form of a teacher or parent is delighted to offer advice if you'll listen. This could lead to a scholastic opportunity or some form of elevated learning situation. Display a Clear Quartz Crystal Point on your study desk.
ROOSTER's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (West)
A negative monthly star arrives in the lives of Roosters now – the #2 Illness Star. This could mean an illness or a minor one, but it's necessary to treat even minor symptoms to keep them from escalating. Get more rest, eat better and avoid stress whenever possible. Carrying an Anti Illness Garuda Amulet Keychain or wearing a Jade Feng Shui Wu Lou Pendant or Tortoise Shell Dzi Bead with Amethyst Phantom Quartz Bracelet is feng shui advice for bolstering your immune system. Stomach issues are especially an issue now – protection can come from placing the Healing Herbs Wu Lou or Garuda Windchime in your home sector West to ward off illness. Young women are particularly at risk now, and need extra pampering of themselves. The West sector is hit especially hard now, so avoiding it when possible is advised. An office in the West sector could find several employees taking ill at once.
Love and romance are the last thing on the mind of the Rooster now, since energy levels are low and it will take all your effort just to get through the day and attend to what you need to do. It's not the time to push yourself into being active socially – there will be better times for that later. But if love is what you are seeking, get some help from a Strawberry Quartz Bracelet or Madagascar Rose Quartz.
DOG's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Northwest)
The arrival of the #1 Victory Star is encouraging for Dogs, who find success a real possibility. To fully take advantage of this star's energy, try displaying the Key for Success and Victory with Windhorse in the NW. This is a symbol and attractor for good luck and victorious actions. The sum-of-ten is also created now, enhancing the chances for a windfall and auspicious good luck. Carrying the Sum-Of-Ten Enhancer Amulet Keychain helps intensify this luck. You could see old friends or colleagues return to your life, as well as new people who will play a role in your successful ventures. A promotion or new responsibilities shows promise for Dogs so be ready to run with opportunities when they arise. This isn't the time to miss out on something good because you weren't alert to it. Displaying the Bejewelled Wisdom Pagoda or Treasure Chest Dharani helps others notice you and encourages them to think of you for advancement. Carry a Purple Crown Symbolizing Prestige and Success Keychain or wear a Jade Bamboo Pendant for Success.
Love is especially good for singles now. If you've had your eye on someone, now's the time to let them now. Make a move before the chance passes you by. It's highly likely that this person has been thinking of you, too, and will return the feeling. Wear a Madagascar Rose Quartz and place a pair of Rose Quartz Mandarin Ducks on Lotus Leaf (M) in your bedroom to enhance love luck.
BOAR's 2019 Monthly Horoscope & Luck Forecast (Northwest)
The #1 Victory Star arrives in your chart and favors success in business and many areas of life. Displaying the Key for Success and Victory with Windhorse can act as a symbol to remind you of your potential and it also encourages good fortune to stay around. A lucky sum-of-ten is also formed this month, adding even more possibilities for success in business and love. Work activities are favored for Boars, and a promotion or bonus could be just around the corner, especially for the Meta Boar. This could mean more money and added responsibilities. Something big is on the horizon and could elevate you to a position beyond your expectations. The 24-year-old Wood Boar and the 48-year-old Metal Boar are especially fortunate in this regard. These and all Boars benefit by displaying a plant in your living room or hanging a windchime in the NW, to attract success. Carry also a Purple Crown Symbolizing Prestige and Success Keychain or wear a Jade Bamboo Pendant for Success.
Love is fortunate for singles and those already in a relationship. Don't hesitate to make a move if someone catches your eye, or you've thought of them for awhile now. Keep an open mind and don't appear desperate, yet let your feelings be known. Boost love luck placing a Crystal Ball - Rose Quartz near you and wearing an Aquamarine Heart Shape Pendant.

Miami-based developers Fort Partners, which also owns the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach, hosted a celebration for community members and leaders Wednesday at the demolition site.
The Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale will feature about 150 hotel rooms and 95 residential units, ranging from 800 to 6,500 square feet. The condo-hotel project is scheduled for completion in 2018.
Fort Partners will be announcing the start of sales for units at the Four Seasons soon.

Scott & Sara
"Working as an administrator at a real estate office, I get to know a lot of REALTORs. I chose Jacquie when it was time to buy my first house because I trust her and her experience, and I know she genuinely cares about her clients. House hunting with Jacquie was fun and easy, and when we found the perfect house she explained the paperwork involved in terms I understood. All in all it was a great experience and I'd recommend Jacquie to anyone."

Jacquie was always available at all times, ready to assist me, answer any questions I might have, reassuring me and taking care of many details that I needed her assistance with. It was no small task as we had been in our home since 1975 and were not familiar with buying/selling practices.

Vinyl not Cutting
IvyGal posted a topic in Vinyl*** Figured it out, Its the new software, not the vinyl*** Curious if anyone has encountered striations across the width of rolled Oracal 631 that don't cut properly? I suppose it could always be my machine or a software issue? But i suspect its the material. Issue: The striations are across the width, not down the yardage. It is also across the width of the cutter - not down the length of the cut (like might happen with an old cut strip or obstruction in the machine) The ghost of a cut is visible, but at weeding, I need to use the edge of a blade to get the cut to lift. I've been increasing my blade, but i'm cutting into the backing across the vinyl, except in these bald areas The striation is in a different place if i cut the file a second time. Seems to be happening at an interval of 4", 12", 4", 12"... but that's measured after the fact. Before cutting, i don't notice any issue. Little sketch is what I'm thinking is happening. Other Details: I'm using a Silhouette Cameo & Sil Business software newest V4. New Blade, Replaced Cut strip & Mat - still happening older vinyl. Purchased extra in Dec 2015, and didn't break into until now. Vinyl is used for a resist process since I'm using the negative and discard the "object" I use painters tape for speedy weeding, and a blade for tough spots or areas where the resist scrim are broken up. Ive been using this material & method for years over 100s of projects. Thank so much for your time and thoughts. I appreciate any feedback. Kgi
Converting Silhouette Studio files into Graphtec Studio files
Casper Lauritsen posted a topic in Other Software ProgramsHello! My name is Casper and I live in a tiny country called Denmark, all the way over in Europe :-) I've had my little sticker-business for 2 years now, while studying at the same time. I've been using the Silhouette Cameo with Silhouette Studio. It treated me very good, but while my business grew, the cutter became too small. Last weekend i ordered a brand new Graphtec CE6000-60, which i just received a couple of hours ago. Looks very good. I've noticed that the Silhouette Studio software and the Graphtec Studio software look very alike. Basicly, they're similar. I was therefore hoping, that i could open all my Silhouette files in the Graphtec software, but no. Doesn't work. Have any of y'all had any luck converting your existing files? Silhouette offers some software upgrades, i'm wondering if the upgraded software, has the ability to somehow save the files in the correct format. Here's a quick overview on the basic-, designer- and business edition features: http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/software I hope some of you will be able to help me out. Thanks in advance. Casper Lauritsen. Please excuse me for my inperfect English, I hope you understood it anyway.
Would a Silhouette Cameo be good for cutting out 1000 small stickers?
Steady Steady posted a topic in Pre-sale questionsI was thinking about buying a Silhouette Cameo, but before I did I thought I'd ask for some feedback and make sure I'm getting the right thing. I just saw that the USCutter store doesn't seem to sell Silhouette stuff but hopefully it's okay to ask this question anyway. I want to design, print out, and cut out a bunch of stickers - like a thousand. I'm not sure how many would be repeats, but let's say that there are no or very few repeats. I'd design them myself, and they'd be small - 1-2 inches long. And I'd stick them on the wall. And they'd require fairly intricate cutting. (I've heard Silhoutte's cutters are good for small, intricate work.) I'm not sure what I'd design the stickers - I made some prototypes in Adobe Illustrator, using a free trial. That worked well, but I don't know if I can afford illustrator. Maybe I could design them using Silhouette software. And then maybe I'd use Silhouette software to make the registration marks. I was thinking about printing them out on Phototex adhesive sheets, on a standard desktop printer. Anyway I'm new at all this, and don't really know what I'm doing, so I'm just looking for some feedback and advice. Thanks a lot!

On 3 December 2018 the DWP published "Pensions dashboards: feasibility report and consultation". This followed on from a round table discussion held on 27 November 2018 and a letter from Chair of the Work and Pension Select Committee Rt Hon Frank Field MP to the Pensions Minister urging him to commit now to legislation compelling firms to provide customer data for the Pensions Dashboard.
The pensions dashboard plans to be a service which provides a single point online where people can access all their pensions information. In order to ensure that all pension information is available the Government has stated that it is prepared to legislate to compel schemes to provide their data. They have also committed to take steps to provide State Pension information via dashboards.
The proposals don't restrict the number of dashboards, but a central non-commercial dashboard is proposed to be hosted by the Single Financial Guidance Body (SFGB) to offer an impartial service, in particular to those that may not be targeted by the commercial offerings. This is seen as the starting point for Pensions Dashboards with other commercial offerings to follow.
The Government is planning to help convene a delivery group consisting of experts from both the industry and Government. This group is proposed to be led and steered by the SFGB, with Government working with the regulators to ensure consumers are protected.
In addition to the dashboard the Government is proposing a single Pension Finder Service (PFS) and will compel schemes to provide their data to this service. The industry delivery group will also be responsible for the delivery of this service.
The report states that as a minimum, pensions dashboards can help to:
- increase individual awareness and understanding of their pension information and estimated retirement income;
- build a greater sense of individual control and ownership of pensions;
- increase engagement, with more people taking advantage of the available advice and impartial guidance;
- support the advice and guidance process by providing people with access to their pensions information at a time of their choosing;
- reconnect individuals with lost pension pots, benefitting the individual and industry; and
- enable more informed user choices in the decumulation phase (the point when a decision is made by a saver on how to access their savings) by making it easier to access the information on which to base these decisions.
As announced in the Autumn Budget the Government committed to funding for 2019/20 to help fulfil its facilitation role. However, the Government states that the cost of the governance structure should be met by the pensions industry and the industry should also fund:
- the development and delivery costs of the dashboard infrastructure, such as the PFS and identity verification;
- the development of a non-commercial, consumer-focused dashboard hosted by the SFGB; and
- any new regulatory functions related to dashboards.
The dashboard, if produced well, should bring increased clarity to consumers. Many consumers lose track of historic pensions and don't understand what they might now be worth. However, this will be a lot of work for the pensions industry, especially for those who are less technologically advanced. In addition, those with closed books of business may not feel quite as compelled to get involved and so legislation may be needed.

Magpies' De Goey craves AFL consistency
Jordan De Goey wants to lead a youth revolution at Collingwood as their AFL season hangs by a thread.
Sunday's four-goal loss to Hawthorn left the Magpies three games out of the top eight with eight rounds left.
It further fuels speculation about the future of coach Nathan Buckley.
But De Goey remains upbeat about what the Magpies can do this season after he had a career-high 32 disposals in Sunday's loss.
Asked about their dwindling finals prospects, De Goey called on other young Magpies to take their chances.
"Obviously there are a lot of young boys in the team and my game on the weekend just proved that if you work hard, you reap the rewards," he said.
"There are a lot of other kids just like me who are waiting for that opportunity.
"It's up to our younger boys to really step forward and not leave it up to the older guys, because for the last few weeks I really think they've been carrying the team."
De Goey's strong game on Sunday was also a step in the right direction as he tries to regain some trust at Collingwood.
The Magpies suspended him in March for lying about how he broke his hand.
De Goey originally said the injury happened while playing with his dog, but it quickly emerged it was because of a bar fight.
"I'm just trying to go out there and play my role for the team and by doing that, I think that's going to gain the trust of the team back," De Goey said.
"Obviously it's not going to happen overnight.
"For me, it's just been one good week and I definitely have to back this up, make this a weekly occurrence.
"Obviously no-one wants to start a season like that, but to get back and playing now, get some consistency, it really helps."
De Goey thanked Buckley for the support he received from his coach during the controversy.
"He's been massive, he's been supporting me the whole way through," De Goey said of Buckley.
"Personally, he's been the best coach I've had."
De Goey said tackling could be an emphasis at training ahead of Saturday's must-win match against Essendon, saying it was an area they definitely needed to improve on.
Their movement of the ball into attack also continues to be a big problem.

SA Sharpies
Welcome to the home page of the South Australian Sharpies, where you can find local information or register for State Championships.
An exciting new State Championship program for Season 2019/20
Following an exciting season of Sharpie sailing in South Australia that included the 76th Nationals at Adelaide Sailing Club, The SA Sharpies community is now ready to get back into it for this coming season. Our State Championship will include the first leg pre-Christmas at the Brighton & Seacliff Yacht Club, and after Christmas at the Arno Bay Yacht Club.
$160 will ensure all sailors are members of the class, the boat is registered in SA and nationally, and it also includes your racing fees for both State Championship legs.
Boats with junior skippers (under 21 at 30 June 2020) receive their membership absolutely FREE, a great incentive for young sailors.
Sharpies in South Australia
Are ready to go racing
Don't miss out on the opening event of the SA Sharpies season as we head to the Goolwa Regatta Yacht Club for our second annual Sprint Series event over the 2019 October long weekend.
The format for this event is still to be determined, as the 2019 AFL Grand Final will not take place on that weekend.
SHARPIE STATES Rd 1 – BRIGHTON & SEACLIFF
The first leg of the 2019/20 SA Sharpies States will be hosted by the Brighton & Seacliff Yacht Club in November. Exact dates are still to be confirmed.
You can enter into the State Championship now and pay later on!
SHARPIE STATES Rd 2 – ARNO BAY
For the first time in the history of the class, a State Championship leg will be hosted in the Eyre Peninsula town of Arno Bay on the March long weekend in 2020. This event will also tie in with the traditional Queen of the Gulf Regatta, which has been shifted from the Easter weekend.
This is a great opportunity for our class to support the strong Sharpie fleet from Port Lincoln and do something a bit different. It is revered as one of the best places to sail on Eyre Peninsula.
We are in the process of organising details with the club, which hopefully will include on-site camping at the club.
DATES: 7-8 March 2020
This year we will continue our successful interclub days, which act as additional lead up events before the nationals, which are this year in Western Australia.
The first interclub day will be held at the Adelaide Sailing Club and the second at the Largs Bay Sailing Club. Exact dates and times are still to be confirmed.

Interview with Toni Kan, shortlisted for his novel The Carnivorous City
Where and when did the idea for The Carnivorous City come from?
I carried around the seed of this novel for over 15 years. I wanted to write a very good Lagos novel; one that would attempt to wrap its arms around this city with some success, by capturing the seediness of parts of the Mainland as well as the shiny opulence of the Island.
I had actually written one which got me a fellowship to Germany but, away from Lagos, I realized that what I had written didn't capture the essence of this city - so I ditched the manuscript and wrote a novella instead. That was in 2003.
Fast forward 7 years later and I am sitting in a bar/nite club with the Kenyan/Ugandan writer, Parselelo Kantai and watching an amazing scene unfold. That was when the idea for The Carnivorous City hit me. It was some sort of epiphany.
Can you tell us a bit about place or places you wrote The Carnivorous City from?
I made my notes for The Carnivorous City here in Lagos where I live and work but as a PR practitioner, writer and editor, there wasn't really much time to finish a novel.
The first draft of this novel, which was submitted for the Kwani? manuscript competition, was written, marathon style, over 23 days at the Civitella Ranieri castle in Umbertide, Italy, courtesy of a Civitella writing fellowship. I am very grateful to Dana Prescott and her team as well as to Maik Nwosu and Chika Unigwe.
What inspires you to write?
Life inspires me. The city inspires me. I am constantly seeking to understand human motive and action. Why do we do the things we do? I am also fascinated, as a city dweller, by the urban dweller's constant, unending and often futile battle to conquer the city. It is Sisyphean.
Tell us about 3 writers you admire and why?
Making lists always get you into trouble.
I became a writer because of Ben Okri. He was my earliest influence. He had a firm handle on the narrative of the city and he was an amazing storyteller who wrote books that were very evocative of the city and man's place in it. I cried for a long time after I read his debut novel, Flowers and Shadows and I did my final year thesis on The Famished Road.
I love Toni Morrison because of her use of language and her imaginative narratives which marry myth and magic (with a light touch) in a way that they are not so clearly delineated from the real and quotidian.
I love Sefi Atta. I think she is the most under-rated or rather, under-celebrated contemporary writer in Nigeria. Her novels and short stories evoke and celebrate Lagos in a way that no-one else does.
How did you hear about the Kwani? Manuscript Project?
I saw it online. Not sure where?
If you had to describe The Carnivorous City as a cross between two other novels, what would they be?'
That's a tough one. I would say 3 novels: Mukoma Ngugi's Nairobi Heat because of the criminal element, Maik Nwosu's Alpha Song because of the oversized tales and larger than life characters that people the Lagos he presents and Sefi Atta's lusty engagement with Lagos.

I got your underdogs right here.
Face it: Their quarterback was just a better receiver than the other quarterback.
It might have been just what the NFL needed after a bad season, from injuries to player troubles, in or out of Ubers, and dwindling TV ratings and bad officiating.
A superb Super Bowl LII to the rescue.
Somewhere, "Concrete Charlie" Bednarik is smiling.
The Philadelphia Eagles stood up and were counted Sunday night. They were the better team, just like the NFC was the better conference. They won their first Super Bowl, and their first championship in 58 years, and they did it by cutting right into the heart of New England Patriots' dynasty with a daring, electrifying 41-33 win.
Nick Foles just became a household name in households that don't have "Foles" on the mailbox. He did it by outplaying the great Tom Brady — by catching one more touchdown than Brady, too.
A wild, wild night.
It was the Eagles who drove down for the winning score late in a game that featured Xbox offense. And just when it was going to be a Patriots night, down 38-33 late but with the ball in Brady's GOAT hands, it was gone — a sack and fumble, and Philadelphia ball.
That isn't supposed to happen.
The world turned upside down, and with it the champs and a dynasty.
If Eagles fans don't put another crack in the Liberty Bell, consider the whole affair a success.
The Eagles didn't play underdog. Sylvester Stallone's services were not required. Philadelphia's favorite adopted native movie star was still shaken by 2003, when he helped christen the new Eagles football stadium, which fueled the Eagles to a 17-0 loss to the defending Super Bowl champion Bucs.
Sly wasn't near this game.
By the way, neither were the Bucs.
This is a very good Super Bowl century. The games have hummed, and Sunday was no different. It was spectacular. It was rousing.
But Foles, the sleepy-looking Philadelphia backup QB, having replaced the injured Carson Wentz, delivered an MVP performance, and in the shadow of Brady, throwing for three scores and hauling in another, which is more than we can say about the GOAT — Brady couldn't haul in a pass a little earlier.
And so, the Eagles are champions and, just as important, the Patriots are not, having been denied a chance to repeat a previous trick of three Lombardi trophies in four seasons.
That doesn't make Brady any less than the greatest quarterback of all (he threw for 505 yards) or Bill Belichick any less of a dour genius. It just wasn't their night, and frankly, the NFL needed that. We all did.
It's not the Patriots' world and we just live in it.
Maybe we should have known it when Eagles defensive back Malcolm Jenkins flattened Patriots receiver Brandin Cooks and knocked him from the game. Maybe we should have known it when Philadelphia kept running over New England and kept getting to Brady.
Or maybe one play defined it, a fearless play when the situation seemed to demand that Philadelphia settle for a field goal just before halftime. The Eagles didn't. Instead, coach Doug Pederson went for it on fourth down and called for third-string Eagles tight end — and Florida Gator — Trey Burton to cap some goal-line razzle-dazzle by tossing a TD to Foles.
It was a fearless moment, right in the face of the Killer Bs — Brady and Belichick. Neither man could stem the Philadelphia whirlwind. Guess it wasn't a coaching mismatch, either.
The only question left is whether greater Philadelphia will be so great after Eagles fans are done with it. Fly, Eagles, fly, but behave yourselves, kids.
You've already beaten the odds.
You knocked off the kings of the world.
Belichick and Brady will be so despondent, they'll only go 12-4 next season.
But we all needed to be reminded that nothing is written. History is to be made, not accepted. The Eagles, all these years after the Bucs shut down them and the Vet, are champions.
More to the point, the Patriots are not.

Vegetarians, mosy along, nothing to see here…
Do you love meat? I mean, do you really love meat? Do you lay awake at night, thinking of what you could do to a side of wild boar or a tender baby lamb? Michael Symon almost certainly does. His newest restaurant, Roast, in downtown Detroit's Book Cadillac Hotel, is a celebration of all things meat. It's a perfect example of taking an ingredient, treating it simply but respectfully, and thereby elevating the whole dish beyond the sum of its parts. Symon's farm-to-table philosophy ties in with the idea that quality ingredients don't need a lot of embellishment or fuss to make a memorable meal.
I had heard good things about Roast, and had gotten a bit of a preview from Marvin, who photographed Symon and the restaurant for an article in Model D. So when he suggested going there for a Mothers' Day dinner, I was all for it. (I apologize for the lack of photos, but I didn't want to be interrupting his mom's nice dinner with a photo shoot, so you'll just have to check out some of the links I provided to see pics.) My initial impression of the restaurant was that it looked impressive but was not at all my style décor-wise; the dining room is very modern-neutral; the music "urban contemporary". But as soon as I opened the menu, I was so giddy at the selection that it could have looked like a TGI Friday's and had Kenny G on the speakers and I probably wouldn't have cared.
Several of the appetizers caught my eye, but we settled on the Roasted Marrow and the Beef Cheek Pierogies. (The Cripsy Chicken Livers is definitely on the list for next time, though.) I had never had marrow except in osso buco, and it was not at all what I expected. I thought it was going to be dark red and taste very earthy, like blood, but it was actually more like soft, gelatinous fat. It was garnished with gremolata and lemon wedges, with toasts to spread it on. I thought it was good, and was glad to have tried it, but it was too rich to eat very much of. The pierogies, a signature dish, were very good; the beef cheek reminded me of oxtail in texture and flavor. The horseradish and mushroom sauce made me want to lick the plate. My only slight critique is that they were a tiny bit doughy. Still delicious though!
For my entrée, it was a tough call. I had almost decided on the Braised Lamb with Fennel and Tomato, but changed my mind upon learning that the Roast Beast of the day was suckling pig. It was served simply, piled on the plate and topped with a small mound of colorful, vinegary chiles and onions and garnished with pieces of cracklins. Many of the main dishes are sold à la carte, as was Marvin's Rack of Wild Boar, so we also got sides of asparagus and polenta (flavored with garlic and honey, and the creamiest I have ever tasted). As I sat there eating my pile of pork, I felt incredibly fortunate (and a little guilty) to be having such a decadent and amazing meal. Even though I was just eating roast pork and not truffles or foie gras, part of the decadent/ pampered feeling was due to the fact that the service was so impeccable; our waiter was attentive to the slightest detail, providing helpful wine pairing suggestions and happily answering all of our questions about the menu.
If you go to Roast, it's fun to also take a peek at the hotel's posh common areas. Marvin's mom used to work in one of the lounges at the Book Cadillac when he was a kid, so after dinner we took a short stroll through the lobby and lounge area of the hotel, which has been immaculately updated. I had never been inside the building, but according to her it was hardly recognizable from its former incarnation.
I may not get a chance to get back to Roast for dinner any time soon, but I hope to check out their new Cocktail Hour, which features $3-$4 "bites" and would, I expect, be a great way to sample the restaurant's treats on a budget. Joe Posch, author of the aforementioned Model D article and blogger at Detroit Drink Tank, wrote about Roast's cocktail hour here, and interviewed bar manager Frank Ritz here. To read another blogger's take on the Roast dinner experience, check out Amy of Runs With Spatula's review here.
P. S. Congratulations to Chef Symon for winning the James Beard award for best chef in the Great Lakes region, and for Roast being named 2009 Restaurant of the Year in the Detroit Free Press.

Can you remember not arriving at work sweating? I can't. Summer has this weird ability to wipe our minds of what it feels like to be cold. The reason so many brits complain about the weather is because we don't have the capacity to remember what Winter is actually like…
Summer can be draining on the body and spirit. Studies have found that we are significantly less productive during the summer months; there's too much to be distracted by. Iced coffee is a very modern solution to the most ancient problem: not being able to concentrate while your body puts all of its resources into keeping you cool.
The fresh, sweet and perky taste of an iced coffee is what a lot of us associate summertime with. But why fork out the better part of a fiver at a chain coffee shop when you can make your own at home.
(Also, have you seen how much sugar Starbucks put in their iced drinks?!)
What's great about making your own coffee is that you can make it your own way, save some money and fill up a flask of your brew to think throughout the day!
Here's what you need to know about making your own:
Know your brew
Dumping hot coffee over ice and waiting doesn't make a good ice coffee, it's methodological. Cold brew and Japanese-style iced coffee can take up to 12 hours and involves slowly dripping coffee. If you need it on the way to work the cocktail shaker method works.
Pour double-strength coffee into a shaker with some ice and shake like you mean it for 30 seconds.
An iced-coffee beginner would opt for ice-cubes made of (pfft) water; this will only dilute the mix. To get more kick out of your iced coffee, freeze some coffee the night before! Alternatively, freeze your creamer of choice for a smoother way to take off the caffeine edge.
Latest Stories
There's an important distinction between iced coffee and the coffee shop frappucino. Namely, the latter features a metric-tonne of sugar and frothy texture. You can get this effect at home, without as much sugar, by adding 1 tablespoon of coconut oil or ghee to cooled coffee and then blending it with your frozen cubes of whatever.

The Federal Reserve's latest Beige Book report, which provides anecdotal data on economic conditions around the United States, paints a mixed picture.
One of the things that came up a few times in the report was the Affordable Care Act.
In the release, the Fed noted: "Many District contacts commented on the expired payroll tax holiday and the Affordable Care Act as having restrained sales growth...Employers in several Districts cited the unknown effects of the Affordable Care Act as reasons for planned layoffs and reluctance to hire more staff."
Below is an excerpt from the Richmond Fed's section of the Beige Book:
Labor market activity was little changed since our last report. Hiring remained flat across most sectors, although there were some exceptions. Employers across the District continued to cite the Affordable Care Act and its unknown impacts as reasons for planned layoffs and reluctance to hire more staff.
Here is another excerpt from the Dallas Fed's section:
Reports from staffing firms were mixed. One contact noted sharp declines in demand for services across the board, while another reported stellar demand that broke direct-hiring records. Outlooks were cautious. Some contacts noted concern that client companies are hiring the absolute minimum to get by due to uncertainty about the Affordable Care Act.
On the other hand, it's good news for some health care businesses, according to the San Francisco Fed's section of the Beige Book:
Demand for most business and consumer services gained. Contacts pointed to solid sales of various technology services and greater demand for financial and accounting services. Food service providers reported strong sales on net. Activity in the District's tourism and travel sector advanced, with solid growth of visitor counts and occupancy rates reported in Hawaii; however, more modest gains were reported in Las Vegas and Southern California. Current demand for health-care services remained relatively weak, but contacts projected rising demand as additional components of the Affordable Care Act are implemented.
Bottom line: the Affordable Care Act does seem to be having an effect on business plans in certain areas around the country. At least, that's what respondents are telling the Fed.

Introduction: Egg Cupcakes
With the Egg Contest in full force, I wanted to create some fun cupcakes that would look like one of my favorite breakfast foods, but really be sweet treats.
Read on for the list of ingredients and how you too can make these egg treats in no time!
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: Ingredients for Gingerbread Cupcakes
I decided to make gingerbread cupcakes and these do not disappoint! You can go with whatever favorite cupcake recipe you like, this recipe is a variation of one I found on Epicurious.
You will need:
One muffin baking tin
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsulfured molasses
1 large egg, beaten lightly
1 teaspoon baking soda
Step 2: Making Your Gingerbread Cupcakes
1. Mix the flour, spices and salt in a bowl
2. In a separate bowl, cream 1/2 stick of the butter. Add the sugar to the butter and beat well until it's fluffy.
3. Add in the molasses an egg to the wet mixture.
4. In a measuring cup combine the baking soda with 1/2 cup boiling water and stir the mixture to dissolve the baking soda. Stir the mixture into the wet mixture (the mixture will appear curdled).
5. Incorporate the flour mixture into the molasses and stir to combine.
6. Line twelve muffin tins with paper liners and spoon the batter into the liners, filling them halfway. Bake the cupcakes in the middle of a preheated 350°F oven for 20 minutes.
7. Remove the cupcakes from the tin and let them cool.
Step 3: Ingredients for Frosting Your Cupcakes
Onto the fun part! Now that your cupcakes are cooled, we'll need to frost them. I recommend using a cream cheese frosting and bought mine at the store. If you prefer to make your own, I'd recommend this cream cheese frosting recipe.
Now that you've got your frosting "egg whites", I chose a variety of candies along with some jam to try making different egg yolks.
Here are some options:
Reeses Pieces (clear winner on the candy front)
Peanut M&Ms
Starburst -- you'll need to reshape them as you like, but you can get very creative.
Apricot jam -- make sure to find one without all the bits of fruit in it.
Step 4: Decorating You Egg Cupcakes
I made a few kinds for all sorts of egg lovers --
If you're adept at piping, cut a small slit in a ziplock, add your "egg whites" and you can easily make mini eggs on top of your cupcakes like these sunny side up and scrambled cupcakes.
If you want to get even more create, melt a little bit of white chocolate, carefully pipe it on top and you've got hollandaise!
If you prefer working with a knife and slathering lots of frosting on, I recommend using your favorite "egg yolk" jam, piping it through a ziplock to easily create a round yolk.
Sprinkle your eggs with a bit of cardamom to give great flavor and provided the much needed "pepper" that goes so well with eggs.

A Brief History
Fans of the film Braveheart may recall the heir to England's throne, future king Edward II, having eyes for men rather than his French wife, Isabella the She-wolf. One of these men, Hugh Despenser, 1st Lord Despenser (c. 1286 – November 24, 1326), became a victim of that vengeful woman in one of history's all-time most brutal executions, because as they say, well, sort of, "Hell hath no fury like a she-wolf scorned"!
Digging Deeper
Earlier on our site, we presented an article on hanging, drawing, and quartering. As that article mentioned, the process took multiple steps that included torture as well as execution. Yet, when it came time for Isabella to seek revenge on her husband's supposed lover, she and her executioners added some "bonus" steps.
Isabella, daughter of a king of France, had been essentially insulted by her husband even early in their marriage when Edward, son of the villainous king from Braveheart, gave some of her jewels to his then male favorite, Piers Gaveston. Over the years, the man and wife grew only further apart.
In 1325, Edward II refused to pay homage to the French king and sent his French wife to France to negotiate. By this time, Edward had become enamored with a new favorite named Hugh Despenser the Younger. Instead of negotiating on Edward's behalf, Isabella took her own lover and raised on army. In 1326, Isabella and her lover (Roger Mortimer) invaded England and hanged and beheaded the elder Despenser and hanged Despenser's vassal Simon of Reading next to him, but what they did (if the sources are to be believed) to Edward and the younger Despenser has to be just about one of the most brutal acts of any monarch in human history.
Having successfully invaded England, Isabella and Roger continued to assert their dominance by trying and then executing the younger Despenser in the most embarrassing and gruesome manner possible. The horrible process included dragging him behind four horses to his place of execution, while the crowd jeered at him, proving that he had lost his power, stripping him naked, writing biblical verses denouncing arrogance and evil on his skin, hanging him from a gallows 50 ft high, a shameful death, the punishment for a common thief, cutting him down before he could choke to death, tying him to a ladder in full view of the crowd, slicing off his penis and testicles which were burnt before him, while he was still alive and conscious, showing to the crowd that he had ceased to be a man, slitting open his abdomen, slowly pulling out, and cutting out, his entrails and, finally, his heart, which were likewise thrown into the fire showing that the land was being purged of evil as his evil desires were thought to reside in his heart and entrails, beheading his corpse and cutting his body cut into four pieces jeopardizing his chances of Salvation after death, and mounting his head on the gates of London.
As for Edward, in 1327, he abdicated, was imprisoned, and allegedly murdered via red-hot poker through the anus…
The new king, Edward III, Edward II and Isabella's son, had Roger Mortimer executed in 1330, thereby diminishing the influence of Edward III's mother. Edward III also, given that his mother was a French princess, claimed the throne of France and in the process started the Hundred Years' War, but that is a story for another article!

Planes are falling out the sky, the internet is broken, and all hell is breaking loose! Wait. No it's not. Well that is a relief!
The build up to 'GDPR deadline day' reminded me of the 'millennium bug' hysteria in 1999. This time though, instead of planes falling out of the sky, businesses would be issued with crippling fines and unrecoverable damage to their reputation.
The truth is that there was never going to be business meltdown on May 25th 2018.
The GDPR deadline is not a business disaster – but it is important
The GDPR deadline date is significant though. Companies do need to comply with stricter rules around how they capture, store and process data. The fines and risks to reputation are a reality for those that fail to protect and respect consumer data in the future. So while the headlines focusing on a dramatic May 25th deadline might have been a bit over the top, the underlying warnings are real. All businesses should keep up the good work they have done to get ready – and continue to make improvements.
The positives of GDPR
The lead up to the GDPR deadline day has been full of stark warnings about the punitive outcomes of not being compliant, however there are some real positives that the headline writers largely chose to ignore.
The positives for consumers
GDPR efforts have meant many businesses invested in better data and privacy policies for their customers. These companies have improved the security of their data, and therefore they have reduced risks of data breaches which can harm consumers.
Consumers now have much more control about who can do what with their information. This should lead to a reduction in unwanted spam.
They also have the right to access to their data that a company may have stored about them.
At the very least consumers have peace of mind that they have more control over their own personal data and how it is used.
The positives for businesses
Businesses exposure to data risks should now be lower. Awareness has improved across the business world and employees at all levels will now be taking customer data much more seriously. This reduces the likelihood of technical and human errors leading to high profile data breaches, which can in turn lead to expensive fines and significant reputation damage.
Many businesses will have also been able to use GDPR to improve their technology and ongoing processes. This can help companies develop new products, become more efficient, and grow faster over the longer-term.
What next for business?
The biggest immediate change on GDPR deadline day is that businesses can no longer send out large volumes of emails with scant regard to who they are sending them to. The 'numbers game' is over.
Business now need to be much more strategic in how they market themselves to consumers. Rather than 'spray and pray', business need to think carefully about what messages people want to receive and provide relevance.
They need to be more targeted and smart in their approach. Failure to do this will diminish already depleted marketing databases even further (through increased unsubscribes), making it even more difficult to get in front of consumers.
But fear not, this shift is a good thing. Just like technology advances have improved businesses and opened up new opportunities; advances in how customer data is used and managed effectively can serve to improve marketing, communications and ultimately return on investment.

"I feel like I am attending a meeting of a religious sect here this morning. It's as if the global revolution of 2016, Brexit, Trump, the Italian rejection of the referendum, has completely bypassed you.
You can't face up to the fact that this bandwagon is going to roll across Europe in these elections in 2017. A lot of citizens now recognize this form of centralized government simply doesn't work.
At the heart of it is a fundamental point: Mr. [name not recognized] this morning said, the people want more Europe.
They don't. The people want less Europe. We see this again and again when people have referendums and they reject aspects of EU membership. But something more fundamental is going on out there. ….
No doubt, many of you here will probably despise your own voters for what I am about to say because just last week, Chatham House, the reputable group, published a massive survey from 10 Europen states, and only 20% of people want immigration from Muslim countries to continue. Just 20%.
Which means your voters have a harder line position on this than Donald Trump, or myself, or frankly any party sitting in this Parliament. I simply cannot believe you are blind to the fact that even Mrs. Merkel has now made a u-turn and wants to send people back. Even Mr. Schulz thinks it is a good idea.
And the fact is, the European Union has no future at all in its current form. And I suspect you are in for as big a shock in 2017 as you were in 2016." -- Nigel Farage

Hunstanton, England
Wreck of the Steam Trawler Sheraton
All that remains of the fishing-vessel-turned-warship is its weathered hull.
Wedged in the sand at Saint Edmund's Point in Old Hunstanton are the remnants of what was once the Steam Trawler Sheraton, a small vessel with a proud history of service in both world wars.
Built in 1907 in Beverley, the Sheraton was originally used as a fishing vessel and was designed to handle the often hostile conditions of the North Sea. However, the ship was built at a time when people were increasingly worrying about the expanding military power of a recently unified Germany, and the ship was soon assigned to a new line of work.
When war was declared in 1914, the Sheraton was requisitioned by the Royal Navy and took on the role of patrolling anti-submarine booms. During World War II, it was again used by the Royal Navy and armed with a 6-pounder gun. The ship was registered as an armed patrol vessel and served along the North Sea coast. After the war, the Sheraton was painted a bright yellow so it could be used as a target ship.
The Sheraton was anchored in the wash off Brest Sand until high winds caused it to stray from its moorings in April of 1947. The ship eventually settled on the beach at Old Hunstanton, where a large section of its hull can still be seen today at low tide.

We are all familiar with the saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away." Apples are nutritious and healthy indeed, as well as tasty – so do the apple juice. (read: organic apple juice).
All natural, pure apple juice is filled with calcium, iron, potassium, and vitamins C and E. Consider this article a mini guide on organic apple juice. And yes, we have included best organic apple juice brands, too.
Organic Vs Regular Apple Juice
Apple juice is one of the healthiest drinks out there. But what to choose – organic juices or the conventional ones? And does it really matter? Let's find out.
We do not have anything against the regular apple juices as far as they do not come from pesticide-showered apples. According to the Environmental Working Group, apples almost top the Dirty Dozen list for being highly contaminated with chemicals and pesticides.
The pesticides adhere to apple' skin and even get inside it. Now, you imagine drinking the juice made out of chemical sprayed apples! Too dangerous!
Apple Juice Health Benefits
Apple juice has many health benefits, let us check a few of them in detail below.
- Improves Heart Health: Potassium in apple juice is a vasodilator, which means it can help lower pressure in your arteries and blood vessels. Also, apple juice can prevent cholesterol formation in the arteries.
Treats Asthma: Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergenic substances present in apple juice can soothe your respiratory system, decrease throat or lungs irritation and relieve asthma attacks.
Anti Cancerous: Owing to the presence of certain vitamins, fibers, and flavonoids, apples are chemoprotective.
Skincare: Rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, apple juice helps in reducing acne, inflammation, scars, and wrinkles. By helping in collagen production, this drink makes your skin healthy and radiant.
Improves Eye Health: The vitamin A in apple juice helps to sharpen the vision and prevents the development of vision impairments
Protect your brain: Animal studies found that apple juice may help protect memory and other aspects of brain health as you age. Preliminary human studies suggest that it may also improve behavior and mental health in Alzheimer's patients.
Reasons Why To Choose Organic Apples
Pesticides are harmful: Pesticides are meant for killing pests, not for human consumption. Several studies showed that cancer, hormone disruption, and ADHD all has links to consuming pesticide filled foods and drinks.
Harmful for environment and farmers: Pesticide-related illness and environmental hazards are on the rise. So, you should give a thought about it.
Organic apple juice tastes better: Fruit growing and harvesting methods directly affect the taste of the juice. Since organic apples are sustainably grown, their juice tastes better.
High fiber, Low sugar: In order to cut the food cravings, you need to create a mirage of being fuller. And, apple juice can get it done for you.
Reviews: Best Organic Apple Juice
- Regular apple juice is fine (read: without chemicals) but If you want to feel like you bit into a fresh apple, this apple juice concentrate is it.
It isn't loaded with water or any thickening agents. Plus, it is a great sweetener substitute for sugar. And, that's why you'll love it more.
Tasting more like a sweet red apple, the 400 ml natural apple juice concentrate will give you 3 – 4 liters when mixed with water.
The vegan-friendly apple juice is suitable for a gluten-free diet as well.
Use it as a syrup on pancakes or mix it with smoothies and shakes for a healthy twist.
- Two packs of ten apple juice boxes by Honest Kids for your kiddos.
The apples in the juice are sustainably grown, and the product comes with USDA Organic-approved certification.
However, with 17 g sugar in only 6-ounce juice, you might want to reconsider giving it regularly to kids.
Honest Kids 6 oz. Organic Apple Juice Boxes ingredients: filtered water, organic apple juice from concentrate, natural flavors, vitamin C, organic natural flavors, and citric acid.
Unlike the regular apple juice cans, it doesn't contain High Fructose Corn Syrup.
Additionally, it is gluten-free and non-GMO verified as well.
- A high calorie organic apple juice that will keep your energy levels high and food cravings at bay.
Evolution Fresh apple juice comes from the finest organic apples and is processed under high pressure to give a cleaner taste.
And because of the careful blend of apples used in this, you can enjoy more than a glass without getting that heavy feeling.
Crisp flavor, almost no aftertaste and most importantly, it is organic, kosher, and vegan.
The 59 Fl Oz juice will give you about 7 servings. Dilute further as necessary for kids and adults.
- This fresh non-GMO apple juice is literally the truth! It's not from any concentrate so it tastes just like a freshly juiced apple.
If you are looking for a tasty and naturally refreshing beverage, you can rely on this one. Plus, it is super affordable, too.
A must have in the fridge, it is smooth to drink, have no acidity like some regular apple juices.
We also like the fact that Mott's juice bottles are 100% positive – they do not leak, there is no bug spray smell, and no fighting with straws.
In short, these 8-ounce packs are the perfect serving size to kickstart your day.
- Langers Baby Organic Apple Juice is another best buy that is made from 100% Organic apples.
With each bottle you buy, you get filler-free, fresh sugar-free gluten-free, and GMO-free organic apple juice.
In addition, this one doesn't contain artificial sweeteners, sugar, or synthetic colors that harm your health.
It also comes as a package in BPA-free bottles. That means each bottle is a delicious cocktail that will freshen up your taste buds, body and mind.
Buy your bottle worry free. It is reasonably priced, too.

About Edit
|Holy Beast
The Four Holy Beasts are four colossal beings that carry The Continent on their backs. They're called the Four Holy Beasts now because there are four of them, but it seems there may have been more in the distant past.
During the time of creation, Ludo-Rathowm created them to take charge of gravity control and structural support for the Continent. They're asleep most of the time, but sometimes they will stir and send rippling shockwaves through the Continent, this is akin to the movement of tectonic plates on our own planet, and more often than not this results in earthquakes. Since they are technically lower ranked Gods, the Holy Beasts are claimed to be immensely powerful and are capable of piercing the Invincibility Field of Dark Lords. This hardly matters however, since they don't take part in the world's affairs at all and only serve as its support.
Their bodies are composed of Souls, so strictly speaking they are technically "alive" but they act more as structures than anything. Sometimes their skin will flake off into soul particles and end up on the Continent, this is how Insects were created. This process also contributed to the formation of the 5th Holy Beast named Orochi, a soulless snake beast that ended up becoming responsible for the support of JAPAN, while also creating Youkai in the process.
The Four Holy Beasts Edit
- Lizard (トカゲ, Tokage): The Holy Beast that supports the southeastern portion of the Continent. It's about the size of the Free Cities and Zeth combined.
- "Elephant" (real name unknown): The Holy Beast that supports the southwestern portion of the Continent. It looks like an elephant. It's about the size of two-thirds of the Kayblis Faction territory.
- Unknown Holy Beast: Supports the northeastern portion of the Continent. Unknown appearance.
- Unknown Holy Beast: The Holy Beast that supports the northwestern portion of the Continent. Unknown appearance.
Orochi EditA lazy Holy Beast that wandered around with no responsibilities. In the year NC321, Orochi, who had no job or responsibilities, decided to rampage around the eastern part of the Continent. The thrashing around caused the Eastern Holy Earthquake, which split the land off. The land began to fall, so Orochi burrowed into the earth and decided it would become the support.
The land, now known as JAPAN, was kept afloat thanks to Orochi focusing its energy. After the creation of the Tenma Bridge, Orochi was no longer needed as a foundation of the country, so it fell asleep, creating vast earthquakes as it occasionally shedded its skin. Sacrifices were fed to the Holy Beast to reduce the intensity of these quakes.

Facebook is to submit a planning application today for a large new data centre in Co Meath, in an investment thought to be worth close to €200 million.
Facebook said the announcement shows its continued interest in investing in Ireland where it has had a presence since 2007.
The social network already employs 900 people at its European headquarters in Dublin, which is its largest office outside its global headquarters in the US.
If approved, the facility near Clonee will likely result in the creation of hundreds of temporary construction jobs and many more permanent operations roles.
It has been reported that the social network giant is hiring electrical engineers with data centre experience to work at its Irish operations.
The latest plan is to build the new centre on a site in an industrially zoned part of Clonee. The company said it intends to draw on local renewable energy supplies, talent and fibre infrastructure. It has shared what it has learned about building energy efficient data facilities with others through what it calls the Open Compute Project.
The project is supported by the Department of Jobs through the IDA Ireland.
