If you are looking for a high protein pancake recipe, this one is for you. Each serving provides a total of 32g of protein. Especially if you are pregnant, this recipe is packed full of nutrients needed for a healthy pregnancy. These have a slightly different taste and texture than traditional pancakes, but they are equally as delicious!
Cottage Cheese Pancakes:
½ cup oatmeal
½ cup cottage cheese
½ tsp. vanilla
½ cup sliced strawberries
1 tbsp. maple syrup
Directions: Blend together oatmeal, cottage cheese, eggs, and vanilla to form a batter. Cook on a griddle over medium heat. Top with strawberries and maple syrup.
Oatmeal is a whole grain that is high in soluble fiber. Soluble fiber is important in lowering LDL or bad cholesterol, making it heart healthy. The soluble fiber also helps with digestion and increases satiety. Oatmeal is also naturally gluten-free. If you are gluten-free, this is a great recipe for you. Oats can be cross contaminated with gluten so just make sure they specify gluten-free on the packaging.
Cottage cheese is packed with high-quality protein that contains all of the essential amino acids that aid in muscle recovery and growth after exercise. It is also high in calcium. Calcium is not only necessary for strong bones and teeth, but it also important for heart health. Additionally, calcium is absolutely essential during pregnancy. A calcium deficiency can cause multiple complications, specifically preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is a condition characterized by extremely high blood pressure. As high blood pressure is dangerous anyway, during pregnancy is can cause preterm birth.
Cottage cheese also is a great source of vitamin B-12 and phosphorus. During pregnancy and in general, vitamin B-12 is essential for normal blood cell formation and brain and nerve development.
Eggs are also full of high-quality protein and fats. If you can afford it, I recommend buying DHA-enriched eggs. DHA is an essential omega-3 fatty acid that is often deficient in our diets, with the most common sources being seafood. DHA is especially important during pregnancy, lactation, and throughout childhood, as it is essential for brain growth and development. It is important for adults too and research shows a positive correlation with many diseases, including depression, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, eye diseases, and cancer.
Eggs are also a great source of choline. Choline is a water-soluble vitamin that is also deficient is most of our diets. Like DHA, choline is critical during pregnancy as low choline intake is linked to neural tube defects and poor memory development in the baby. Choline is also important for heart health, is anti-inflammatory, and may help prevent breast cancer.
If you are pregnant, your nutrition is absolutely essential to your health and the health of your baby. Recipes like this provide a lot of needed nutrition, and you should upkeep a healthy diet during pregnancy. If you need some help doing so or need recipe ideas, I can help! I have put together a comprehensive recipe guide specifically catered to your nutritional needs during pregnancy. Click below to get access to these recipes.

What measures are taken regarding chemicals of concern in food contact packaging? | Article
A recent study by scientists from the Food Packaging Forum, ETH Zürich and the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology has led to the development of a list of chemicals of concern in contact with foods (FCCoC) that researchers believe should be eliminated. immediately as part of the EU’s chemical sustainability strategy.
The research, published in the Hazardous Materials Journal, aims to identify chemicals in food contact materials, such as packaging, that may pose a threat to human health and the environment. Overall, the researchers say there are more than 12,000 known chemicals used in the manufacture of food contact materials, while a significant number of unintentionally added substances (NIAS) – ranging from additives to cleaning agents to by-products of chemical reactions – remain largely unknown.
Some chemicals of concern have already been identified and targeted by legislation. This includes certain perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), the non-essential use of which has been restricted in the EU. There have been renewed calls to ban PFAS in all applications, even those deemed essential, due to their association with health problems such as high cholesterol and certain cancers. While the strong chemical bonds of PFAS provide resistance to degradation and are effective as surfactants in packaging applications, Dr Jonatan Kleimark, senior chemistry and business advisor at Swedish NGO ChemSec, says the persistence of these chemicals in the environment and their adverse health effects mean that “it’s worth applying the precautionary principle in this case”.
According to the research published today, specific focus on the FCCoC has been limited due to the relatively recent introduction of the chemical strategy for sustainability. The new research compiled data from a variety of sources, including databases such as the Food Contact Chemicals Database, which is based on information from organizations such as the European Agency of Chemicals (ECHA) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In addition, data from other organizations such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) were taken into account by the researchers, according to their methodology.
Overall, research by the Food Packaging Forum suggests that there could be as many as 388 chemicals of concern in food contact materials. This would include 352 substances known to be carcinogenic, mutagenic and toxic to reproduction, meaning they can cause cancer, damage DNA and be harmful to reproductive systems, sometimes leading to birth defects.
Additionally, the researchers list 22 endocrine-disrupting chemicals, which interfere with hormone regulation, such as FCCoCs. The researchers also identified 32 chemicals used in food contact materials that appear to pose risks related to persistence and bioaccumulation, meaning they can accumulate in the environment because, in many cases, their strong chemical bonds do not break down easily.
Some food contact materials have been shown to have higher presence of chemicals of concern, the researchers say. The highest number of FCCoCs have been reported in printing inks, with around 238 substances found for this application, according to the researchers. Plastics and paper and cardboard also rank highly in terms of FCCoC content, with the researchers saying that the two types of materials could contain more than 160 hazardous substances each based on the dataset.
However, the research also found that the majority of FCCoCs were used in more than one type of food contact material. The researchers identified 96 FCCoCs that were used to make at least five different types of food contact materials.
Another important finding from the research is that monomers, the building blocks of plastic polymers, would migrate from the finished food packaging, instead disproving previous hypotheses. The researchers say they targeted monomers because, depending on the type of polymer and the polymerization process, they can represent up to 4% by weight in the final material.
According to the researchers, 30 of the FCCoCs listened to are monomers, such as acrylamide and styrene (used to make polystyrene). The researchers say 22 of these monomers have been detected to migrate into food or a food simulant, suggesting they can transfer into food which is then ingested by humans. Notably, almost all monomers that have shown signs of migration in research are considered carcinogenic, mutagenic, and toxic to reproduction.
The group also warns that there will likely be more FCCoCs than identified by the list, but adds that “absent hazard classifications” make data collection difficult. However, the researchers say that the 388 FCCoCs identified on the list are already actionable and should be prioritized for immediate removal from food contact materials.
Jane Muncke, Managing Director of the Food Packaging Forum, explains: “Our study provides scientific evidence that hundreds of harmful chemicals are used legally in FCMs in Europe today, and that people are ingesting these dangerous chemicals with their food. .
“Here we present a ready-made list of priority chemicals that should be immediately eliminated from use in food contact materials by decision makers.”
The Food Packaging Forum says prioritizing FCCoCs identified in research will enable manufacturers and researchers to improve the safety of food contact materials. The researchers say its FCCoC list should not be cleared for internal use in food contact materials. Therefore, the group urges the European Commission to review the list as it currently undertakes reviews of the food contact materials regulations.
In terms of material sustainability, the researchers also note that the memo is an important time to reconsider the use of hazardous chemicals as the EU attempts to transition to a circular economy. For example, the researchers suggest that phasing out identified FCCoCs from virgin materials will help eliminate them from circulation, as they will not then be perpetuated through multiple recycling processes.
The EU’s Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability and the Farm to Fork Strategy both aim to ensure that consumer products do not contain chemicals that are hazardous to food safety and public health, with particular emphasis on emphasis on ensuring that carcinogens, endocrine disruptors or bioaccumulative substances are not present. The researchers conclude that the listed FCCoCs must be phased out immediately for the EU to achieve these ambitions, and that stricter enforcement of the legislation is needed to prevent damage from hazardous substances in food contact materials. .

The Detective Bureau is currently reviewing various issues regarding graffiti which have occurred in the community recently.
05-24-2021 - 2:13 PM – A Glen Rock resident reported receiving a notice from the Bank of America that someone had attempted to open an account in their name. The actor had done so utilizing the victim’s name address date of birth and Social Security number. The account has since been closed and the matter is under investigation.
05-26-2021 - 8:10 AM – The owner of a Ridgewood based landscaping service reported that someone had slashed the tire on his vehicle and broke into his landscaping trailer by cutting the lock. Both the vehicle and the trailer were parked at a commercial lot on the 400 block of Grove Street between 2:30 PM on May 26 and the time of the report. Stolen from the trailer were two weed trimmers and two leaf blowers valued at a total of $2,100. The Detective Bureau is currently investigating.
05-26-2021 - 10:21 AM – The owner of a business located at 175 Rock Road reported observing graffiti painted on a fence across the railroad tracks from his business. It was determined that the fence was owned by the Glen Courts Senior Citizen Building. The building management was notified. It appeared that this occurred sometime after 8:00 PM on May 25 and the time of the report. The Detective Bureau is currently reviewing various issues regarding graffiti which have occurred in the community recently.
05-26-2021 - 1:04 PM – Following a two-week investigation D/Sgt James Calaski arrested a 55-year-old Ridgewood man on shoplifting charges stemming from incidents that occurred at Bottle King Liquors on Prospect Street. The investigation was begun on May 12 when the management of bottle King reported that $2,000 worth of wine had been stolen from the store on two separate dates in March and April. Through the review of receipts and video surveillance footage, detectives were able to identify the actor. On each occasion the actor had taken expensive bottles of wine and placed them in cases marked at a lower price. The man would then check out paying the lower price, in each case defrauding Bottle King of $1,000 for two separate purchases.
Since the time of the arrest, full restitution has been made to Bottle King.
05-27-2021 - The Glen Rock Police Department received two reports concerning fraudulent unemployment claims. The first was received from a Hawthorne woman who reported that the claim was filed in her maiden name using her parent’s Glen Rock address. The second report was received from a Glen Rock man who received a letter at his home concerning a claim that was filed in his name on May 9th. Neither victim had filed for unemployment benefits. The detective bureau continues to receive ongoing complaints of this nature and is working with the NJ Division of Criminal Justice which is the lead investigating agency on fraudulent unemployment claims being filed throughout the state.
05-27-2021 - 9:14 PM – Patrols were dispatched to a 9-1-1 report of a dispute in progress at a Little League game being played at Faber Field on Doremus Avenue. The complainant reported to officers that a profanity filled dispute had occurred between unknown parents from both the Glen Rock and Paramus teams following what was described as a rival playoff game. Officers were able to locate the complainant, however, it appeared that the primary instigators had left prior to the officers’ arriving. Officers remained in the area until the crowd dissipated.
05-29-2021 - 11:38 AM – A Glen Rock man reported that a fraudulent unemployment claim was filed in his name. He learned of this when he received a letter from the New Jersey Department of Labor. A few days later he received a checkbook in the mail from TD Bank for a checking account that had been opened in his name. The complainant had not opened the account and notified the bank immediately. The detective bureau is currently reviewing both matters.
05-29-2021 - 5:05 PM – Special Officer James Harte was dispatched to the area of Romary Court to investigate the report of several loud bangs, of unknown origin, which had occurred periodically. Two residents reported that vibrations had shaken their homes. While investigating the officer heard several loud explosions, however, they appeared to be coming from a distance away.
Additional officers responded along with Glen Rock firefighters to conduct a more comprehensive check of the area. Surrounding jurisdictions were also notified as the point of origin could not be determined. Crews from both P S E & G Gas and Electric were dispatched to the scene and examined their infrastructure throughout the area and found no immediate defects.
Additional reports were received just after midnight on May 30th in the area of Oaklynn Place and just prior to 12 noon on Waldron Avenue. The area was checked by Glen Rock officers, as well as Fair Lawn Police in the area of their industrial complexes immediately adjacent to the Glen Rock border with negative results. Other surrounding jurisdictions were notified, but none have received any similar reports.
At 2:54 PM on May 30th patrols and firefighters returned to the Romary Court area when a resident flagged down the Fire Chief, reporting that her pool heater door had blown off. P S E & G again returned to the area. Technicians determined that the gas meters at two homes were in need of replacement as they were not large enough to accommodate the needs of the homes. However, it remained undetermined if this was the cause.
During this course, the Glen Rock Police Department and Office of Emergency Management coordinated with County Authorities to investigate other possible causes of the reported conditions.
05-30-2021 - 2:04 PM – A 19-year-old Glen Rock man filed a police report alleging that he was assaulted on the evening of May 27 in a parking lot on the 200 block of Maple Avenue. He provided a video, taken by a third party, which he claimed recorded the assault in question. The victim reported that he was injured and that his parents transported him to Valley Hospital in Ridgewood for treatment. It is not clear why a police report was not filed at the time of the incident. The identity of the actor has not yet been confirmed by the police. The matter has been referred to the Detective Bureau for investigation.

If you enjoy locally grown organic fruit, vegetables, meats and dairy or shop at one of New Mexico’s 50-some farmers’ markets, you’re an important part of our state’s farming community and economy.
Nearly half of New Mexico’s farms are small properties of one to nine acres, representing a long tradition of family-owned lands. But many of these family farms are in trouble. Farming alone doesn’t pay the bills—most farmers have second jobs—and farmers generally are aging, with the majority in their 50s and 60s. For many, their family’s land is their primary asset, and they can’t retire without selling it to developers. Farmland is often the most attractive land to developers because it’s beautiful and green, has water and already has roads and utilities. All of this adds up to New Mexico losing about 4 percent of its already-scarce farmland per year, and the rate at which farmland is converted to housing and other development is accelerating.
The Santa Fe Conservation Trust (SFCT), in collaboration with other organizations and drawing on state financial incentives, can help. New Mexico offers financial incentives in the form of tax credits to farmland owners who volunteer to place some or all of their land into permanent conservation with a land trust. Under these agreements, farmers continue to own and work their land and can leave it to their children, sell it, or arrange other options. The landowners can use the tax credits to reduce their taxes or convert the incentives into cash. Through these agreements, precious small farms are protected from development, thereby benefiting all of us who appreciate New Mexico’s agricultural lands and the goods they produce.
Unfortunately, there are significant barriers to participation in the state’s conservation incentive program for small farmers. For example, the up-front costs of placing land into conservation with a land trust are considerable. Fortunately, with the help of the Santa Fe Farmers’ Market Institute and others, SFCT formed a statewide coalition of farming, legal, financial and land-trust organizations called the Small Agricultural Lands Conservation Initiative (SALCI) to address issues that prevent small farmers from benefiting from the state’s incentive program. Through SALCI, SFCT is developing a revolving fund to help cover the up-front costs. If you or another small farmer would like to discuss the possibility of taking advantage of these opportunities, contact SFCT at 505.989.7019 or email@example.com

Radiohead drummer turned solo star Philip Selway has confirmed a series of UK tour dates.
Nestled behind his drum kit, Philip Selway has played an integral role in one of Britain’s most celebrated bands. Sure, he may not contribute greatly to songwriting but his steady presence has eased Radiohead through some remarkable artistic shifts.
Asked to take part in a songwriting project by Neil Finn, Selway jumped at the chance. Taking place in New Zealand, ‘Seven Worlds Collide’ saw the drummer attempt to write his own material for the very first time.
Joined by the likes of Wilco and Johnny Marr, the project sparked something new in Selway. The Radiohead drummer began working on new material, with the resulting album ‘Familial’ due to be released later this year.
Snapped up by revered indie Bella Union, the album is a confident and assured debut. Perhaps all those years working alongside Thom Yorke have rubbed off…
Due to hit the record racks on August 30th, ‘Familial’ will be followed by a series of British tour dates. Starting with a set at Ireland’s Electric Picnic the Radiohead star will mix solo shows with festival slots.
The singer will also tour with Wilco, re-creating the ‘Seven Worlds Collide’ bond. Over the course of three shows Philip Selway will play support to the alt country dons, finishing in Glasgow’s historic Barrowlands venue.
Tickets for the dates go on sale soon, with these shows representing a rare chance to catch the Radiohead star in such intimate environments.
Philip Selway has confirmed the following shows:
4 Ireland Electric Picnic
11 Isle Of Wight Bestival
12 Larmer Tree Gardens End Of The Road
14 London Royal Festival Hall (with Wilco)
15 Newcastle Academy
16 Glasgow Barrowland

The long wait is almost over! Canada’s opener for Qatar 2022 on Wednesday, its first World Cup match in 36 years, is anticipated by many as though it were Christmas morning.
The hopes of a nation will ride on the shoulders of veterans Atiba Hutchinson, Milan Borjan and Junior Hoilett along with young stars such as Alphonso Davies, Jonathan David and Tajon Buchanan. Missing out, due to unfortunate late injuries, are depth pieces Doneil Henry, Scott Kennedy and Maxime Crepeau.
Davies is expected to be back from a recent hamstring strain, and if healthy will be expected to start. How long he goes after missing nearly two weeks on the sideline remains to be seen but given the importance of the first game in the World Cup group stages he could play substantial minutes. Expect Davies to have a more free-ranging role, especially when Canada has possession. While the CanMNT had success in Davies injury absences during qualifying, Canada is not the same team when Davies is missing.
Belgium will undoubtedly be wary of the threat posed by Davies’ speed and dribbling and he will be expected to draw a crowd of Belgian defenders whenever he is near the ball. However, as seen throughout qualifying, when Davies draws multiple defenders to him there is certain to be extra space and less marking for his attacking teammates.
David will be tasked to lead the line and will look to exploit open seams for teammates to find him in the final third. David’s knack for finding space along with quick acceleration and meticulous timing of his runs may give the Belgian back line some serious challenges throughout the match.
Hoilett’s man of the match performance in Friday’s final tune-up game has likely assured him as starting role in the team’s opener. Hoilett will likely play as a central midfielder lining up just ahead of Hutchinson and Stephen Eustáquio. Also look for Hoilett to interchange positions with Davies as the course of the game dictates.
There has been no meaningful head to head action between Canada and Belgium to reference as they have not played one another in over 33 years... The two nations’ one and only game was a friendly held at Lansdowne Park, Ottawa on 9 June 1989 that was won by the Red Devils 2-0. Notable names for Belgium that day were Marc Degryse, Marc Emmers, and Jan Ceulemans. Canada was led by Craig Forrest, Dale Mitchell and Alex Bunbury.
Belgium, ranked second in the pre-tournament FIFA rankings, after a previous stint at the top for quite some time would appear to strong for Canada, currently ranked 41st. However, in the more current looking Elo ranking system Belgium is ranked fifth whereas Canada closes the gap somewhat at 29th. The perceived gulf between the two nations is there for a reason, but wheras Belgium is seemingly in a slow decline, Canada rise over the past two years has been meteoric.
How did Belgium fare in recent World Cups? Belgium is coming off their best showing at a World Cup when the finished third overall in 2018. In both 2014 and 2018 Belgium swept their groups with perfect 3-0 records during the height of their golden generation period. However, both their groups in 2014 (Algeria, Russia, South Korea) and 2018 (England, Tunisia, Panama) were relatively easier than their current Group F opposition.
Much has been made of Belgium being an aging cast ripe for the picking. The backbone of the team remains veterans like Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, Axel Witsel, Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen, all over 30 years old.
However, Manager Roberto Martinez has been introducing quality young players into the mix, such as Youri Tielemans, Zeno DeBast, and Jérémy Doku. It would not be surprising to learn that the 19-year-old right back DeBast was brought in to the Red Devils’ fold by Martinez to deal with Davies speed.
Another player to keep an eye on is young attacking midfielder Charles De Ketelaere. Recently transferred to AC Milan, De Ketelaere could be Belgium’s breakout star of the tournament.

The imposing Thibaut Courtois, among the very best goalkeepers in the world, remains a fixture in the Belgian goal. Courtois’ ability is such that when he is on his game is capable of stealing a match for Belgium.
Belgium’s all-time leading scorers, Romelu Lukaku, has been declared out for the first two games of the round robin. The powerful striker has had injury issues to start the club season and has only managed to play in two games for AC Milan in the past four months.
Can Canada turn some heads and pull off a result?
Jonathan David was more or less asked this question during a recent media availability. David’s answer, “Of course. Any team can beat any team on any given day.” For such optimism to play out there are three games within the game to be contested.
Will Canada’s defence hold?
The best defence in CONCACAF in World Cup qualifying was, surprisingly, Canada’s. They will need to repeat that performance as Belgium’s offence is considerably more talented and dangerous than anyone Canada has faced in CONCACAF. A particular concern is with crossed balls in the box. Aside from Steven Vitoria, aerial prowess is not the forte of the likes of Miller or Johnston. We have seen recent examples of where these players were exposed against Uruguay (Johnston) and Japan (Miller).
The midfield battle
Belgium has possessed one of the most formidable midfields over the last five years, but some components are aging and have not been playing at the lofty heights seen in years past. But Canada will be warned to not sleep on them. Canada has yet to experience a game with this much quality in the middle, although Uruguay was very close.
Manchester City’s slick talisman De Bruyne will especially be a handful for Canada’s midfield. His vision on the field and range of passing ability will need to be blunted. Whoever Herdman selects in the middle cannot afford to switch off for any amount of time with the danger posed by Belgium’s midfield in attack. Canada will need superior performances from captain Atiba Hutchinson and the in-form Stephen Eustáquio in this match.
Will Canada’s speed prove decisive?
Will Canada’s dynamism on the flanks and threat in transition be enough to overwhelm an imposing Belgian defence that tends to play a high line but is notably not be blessed with pace? Look for Canada to attack Belgium’s back line on the counter and exploit this every opportunity that is presented.
Canada’s speed game has to become a factor if they want to produce a positive result. It is unlikely Belgium will take Canada’s pace lightly. Leading up to this match veteran Belgian midfielder Axel Witsel spoke about Canada and stated,
“Canada’s strength is their speed with Jonathan David, Alphonso Davies and Tajon Buchanan on offense. I recently played in #UCL against the latter. We have to be careful about the space we leave behind. They are physically very strong”
Herdman will likely line up with a 3-4-1-2 with the ball, but when out of possession left sided players Adekugbe can shift to left back and Davies would fall back to left midfield in a 4-4-2 set-up. It is also likely we see Hoilett drop deeper to flood the middle with five midfielders in a 4-5-1 leaving David to hold the line. The ability to transition from one tactical formation to another has been a strength of the CanMNT under Herdman and will likely hold them in good stead in this game and throughout the tournament.
Keys to the game
Given the enormity of the challenge that awaits Canada in the game with Belgium there are multiple facets to the game that Herdman and the CanMNT will need to execute in a sufficiently successful manner in order achieve a result. Here are five keys to the game for Canada.
Not conceding early: Make that, do not concede the first goal. The quick goals scored by Uruguay and Japan in their recent tune-up games put Canada in uncomfortable holes early. Nerves were certainly a factor in the opening minutes of the Uruguay match, Canada’s first match against a marque opponent outside their home federation. They cannot afford to come out of the gates playing like a proverbial deer in the headlights. Or it will soon become a deer in the cross-hairs.
Discipline and defensive shape: Canada is not likely to enjoy superior ball possession, and must remain disciplined without the ball. Defensive assignments must be understood and remaining positionaly sound is a must. Pressing is a big part of Canada’s game, but the players must press as a team. Any lapses into free-lancing in defence will not go unpunished by a dangerous Belgian offence. Canada needs equal measures of patience and tenacity in winning the ball back. Once the ball is recovered, the transition to offence needs to be swift and with purpose.
Set Pieces: Dead ball situations have at times been a problematic riddle that Canada has had difficulty solving throughout the Octagonal matches, and since then as well. This early under-performance in dead ball situations is not limited to the offence. The team has been suspect defending set pieces as well. Belgium is blessed with an assortment of creative players with attacking nous.
For Canada to not give up fouls in dangerous places is stating the obvious and when facing off against the likes of De Bruyne, Batshuayi and Hazard (either one) its bound to happen. Many analyses of set piece efficiency during World Cup group stages have shown that the more successful a team can be, the greater their chances of reaching the round of 16.
In the last 3 World Cups, 7 teams 30th or lower in the FIFA rankings have advanced out of their group.— Charlie O'Connor-Clarke (@charliejclarke) November 19, 2022
44% of their goals in doing so came from set-pieces.
Here's more on why #CanMNT need some dead ball magic at #Qatar2022: https://t.co/z2c9zFdBT5
Conversely, when ball possession is not expected to be in your favour, Canada must make the most of any set piece opportunities that come their way. And to be fair, set pieces taken by Eustaquio and Hoilett of late, have been much better. Canada will need them to continue in this vein.
Efficacy in the Final Third: Canada did well in putting away their chances in qualifying, but the game moves quicker at the World Cup. Belgium’s defence will not give Canada’s attack the luxury of time on the ball in scoring situations in the manner they may have enjoyed during qualifying. There will be no time or space for dithering in this match.
Fortunately for Canada, David and Larin have generally been clinical with the chances that come their way. Even Lucas Cavallini, expected to be used almost exclusively as a late game energy spark from the bench to close off games, looked lively in the recent matches against Bahrain and Japan.
Composure: Herdman has cultivated tightly knit bond among the players, popularly referred to as ‘the brotherhood’. This fraternal closeness has been a positive force for the team. However, the players, both individually and collectively, need to harness the energy the brotherhood emits, and keep emotions in check.
Fearlessness, a hallmark of the CanMNT over the past two years, cannot be permitted to descend into recklessness. With just two yellow cards needed to bring on a suspension, players will need to exercise greater composure than usual.
The announced referee for the game will be Janny Sikazwe from Zambia. Sikazwe is notorious for incorrectly calling time on a match at the 2021 African Cup of Nations at 85 minutes, and then again before the full 90 minutes were up. He does have prior World Cup experience having officiated at the 2018 tournament, including the group stage match between Belgium and Panama.

Sarah Lane: Close-Ups of Natalie Portman's Face Don't Count as Dancing
By PopEater Staff Posted Apr 15th 2011 11:30AM
Sarah Lane, Natalie Portman's ballerina double in her Oscar-winning role, stands by her assertion that Portman did not do as much of the dancing as everyone claims.
"They were trying to create this image, this facade really, that Natalie had done something extraordinary, something that's pretty much impossible," Lane tells 'Good Morning America,' "which is to become a professional ballerina in a year and a half."
As for Aranofsky's explanation that he counted the dance shots and 80 percent of them were Natalie, Lane scoffs.
"It's possible, like I said, if you're counting the close ups of her face as actual dancing shots. But I don't call close-ups of her face actual dancing," she retorts.
But the ballerina does believe Portman deserved the Oscar. "An Oscar is for acting and she did an amazing job with the movie."
Besides Aranofsky, Portman's fiance (and dancing partner from the film) Benjamin Millepied and her co-star Mila Kunis came to her defense.
The actress even spoke out about it as well, wishing to put the feud behind her.

If Tysons is going to become a destination, it’s going to need an Eiffel Tower — and slower, more pedestrian-friendly streets.
On the “Connect with County Leaders” podcast run by the Fairfax County Government, Deputy County Executive Rachel Flynn talked about the increasing importance of establishing a “destination” feeling with urban design to draw in a younger crowd.
“Millennials are deciding where they want to live before they get the job, then they move there and get the job,” Flynn said. “That’s the sign of a robust economy. So what can Fairfax do to say ‘we attracted that person?’ We don’t have an Eiffel Tower or a Chrysler building, but I think Tysons is the start of that.”
On its quest to become America’s next great city, Flynn said the area will have to be notable for something — presumably other than the historic Toilet Bowl building. Flynn referenced the example of San Francisco, noting that icons like the Golden Gate Bridge come to mind before any other details about the city.
But the other side of the coin to draw businesses and residents to Tysons, Flynn said, will be making the streets more walkable.
“We’re hearing that people want to walk more,” Flynn said. “They don’t want to be as car-dependent.”
But sometimes, Flynn noted, good pedestrian design can come at the cost of car-focused improvements, like more turn lanes. While Fairfax County has traditionally been built on its highways, Flynn said Tysons is going to need to continue switching to a more urban style street grid — specifically referencing Old Town Alexandria as a model for pedestrian-friendly design.
“Every time you add an extra right turn lane, someone is paying for that,” Flynn said. “Someone has to maintain that… and you just made a wider intersection for a pedestrian or cyclist, so maybe they don’t cross that street… Pedestrians know where they’re wanted, and that’s where they want to stay. So we need to slow down traffic and get more people out of their cars.”
For Tysons, Flynn said people should expect narrower lanes and slower traffic than they’d find in other parts of the county. Slower traffic, Flynn said, will not only add to pedestrian friendliness but will make retailers more likely to set up shop nearby.
“People are really drawn to a sense of place, that’s why Mosaic has been such a big hit and Tysons is becoming that way,” Flynn said. “People want to be at a place that feels good you have lots of choices of what to do.”

Associated Press: The woman pastor at the center of the Southern Baptist Convention’s decision to oust Saddleback Church — the California megachurch founded by pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren — says she will continue to serve as a ministry leader despite her longstanding ties to the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.
NPR: What's next for the Southern Baptist Convention after it ousted 5 woman-led churches?
United Methodist News: Churches disaffiliating from The United Methodist Church are overwhelmingly in the South and Southwest, and compared to remaining United Methodist churches, are more likely to have a male pastor and a majority white membership.

Carat lands £6.7m CSL media account
By Katherine Levy, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 16 February 2012 11:00AM
Carat has won the £6.7 million media planning and buying account for the furniture retailer CSL.
The agency will support CSL in its growth plans linked to a national store expansion. An initial campaign will focus on digital, TV and radio, but evolve to include all media.
Brilliant Media Leeds was the previous incumbent on the business. The agency had picked up the account shortly after losing the £40 million broadcast DFS business to MediaCom in March last year.
However, as a result of MediaCom's acquisition of Brilliant Media in December last year, CSL started the search for a new agency.
Tracy De Groose, the managing director at Carat, commented: "CSL is redefining its sector through the use of digital performance marketing. We're extremely proud of our track record in building e-commerce business and we look forward to doing the same for CSL."

Over the years, the “Top 40 Albums” list (once a measly list of 10) has become the apex of BDWPS, a culmination of a year’s worth of obsessive listening and re-listening (and re-listening) to every piece of music I can get my hands on. Even as I compile this final definitive list (which I traditionally question months and years later), I find myself revisiting albums I was quick to write off, or I end up digging for gems that may have slipped through the cracks of my consciousness. I didn’t have as tough of a time leaving albums off the list this year; I don’t know if that means 2013 was a weak year in music or if I just didn’t have as tight of a connection with as much music as usual. Regardless, I can promise you that the following 40 albums are well-crafted collections of music/art worth investing your time in…lord knows I have.
I always have difficulty when coming up with these lists because there are often albums I’ve enjoyed that I’m forced to leave out. When I had the current mid-year list down to 25, I thought about bucking my yearly tradition of 20 and upping it to 25. Then, I recollected a long forgotten high school memory. During my junior year, our basketball coach had a decision along the same lines – with 10 returning seniors and a strong incoming Junior class of 10 quality players, he had to make cuts in order to meet the roster limit of 15. Instead of manning up and just cutting some of the old players or telling some Juniors to take a year off, he let the extra five Juniors (one of them being me) stay on the team as kind of a practice team. This would turn out horribly with our group of five often feeling outcast and forgotten, and by seasons end, we’d named ourselves The Bullheads (because in Iowa, a catfish isn’t considered a keeper). I decided that, yes, there are some great albums on the outside looking in this year, but at the same time, including them would water down my already loaded list. 2013 is off to a great start musically, and here are my “Top 20 Favorite Albums” so far (no bullheads included: i.e. Daft Punk).

The 26-year-old is reportedly dating his Ex On The Beach co-star Lillie Lexie Gregg...
Um, wait a second. Does Celebrity Big Brother‘s Stephen Bear actually have a girlfriend?!
Judging by his behaviour on the Channel 5 reality show, the 26-year-old certainly appears to be single. In fact, he and Lewis Bloor have been rowing over Marnie Simpson.
On last night’s show, we saw Bear plant a kiss Geordie Shore‘s Marnie, 24, in a bid to wind up 26-year-old TOWIE star Lewis.
Okay, so this did all happen as part of a task. But still, how come he hasn’t mentioned his rumoured other half?!
Bear has been reportedly been dating Lillie Lexie Gregg for four months, after meeting her on the upcoming series of Ex On The Beach.
He actually spoke about his lady before entering the house, telling OK!: ‘I’ve promised her I’ll stay faithful in the house. I don’t want to ruin things for the sake of a quick kiss on telly.’
Lillie added to The Sun: ‘It’s early days, we’re seeing each other. We’ve spent a lot of time together since we got home from Ex On The Beach and it’s probably heading [towards a relationship].
‘At the moment, it’s just like no pressure and we’re both really fun, it’s fun, we’re happy, we’ll see what happens.
‘I’m fully supporting him and if it’s meant to be then it’ll be and he won’t get up to anything on the programme.’
Hmmm. Fans have been Tweeting about Bear’s antics, with one writing: ‘”No ones got a girlfriend in here” you sure Bear? You sure you don’t? #CBB.’
Another said: ‘Has @stephen_bear forgot he has a girlfriend?? [sic].’
What do you think of Bear’s antics? Let us know below.

Some public libraries inviting drag queens to read to children are unwilling to extend the same courtesy to Kirk Cameron, a well-known actor active in Christian causes.
Mr Cameron said more than 50 libraries had rejected his request to hold a public reading of his new children’s book ‘As You Grow’, published by Brave Books and illustrated by Juan Moreno.
“This is a book that teaches biblical wisdom through the seasons of life to children and the value of cultivating the fruit of the spirit, such as love, joy, kindness, patience, gentleness, self-control,” Mr. Cameron said Wednesday on Fox’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” drag queen.”
He urged parents and grandparents to push back by contacting their local libraries and asking to hold reading events for their favorite children’s books.
“Call your local public library that has a drag queen story hour and say, I would like the chance to read my book in the library,” Mr Cameron said. “And if they say no, they’re probably breaking the law and violating the Constitution, and they can contact Bravebooks.com. We will give them free books and everything they need to turn this denial into renewal in their community.
Her experience has already sparked outrage among conservatives who have accused left-wing public libraries of viewpoint discrimination.
“If Kirk Cameron dressed in drag could he have [a] story time? asked Twitchy.
Podcaster Matt Walsh tweeted, “If only he was dressed in women’s underwear and read a book about sex for five year olds, then he’d have libraries lining up to host it.”
In a statement on Facebook, Brave Books said, “Isn’t it funny how drag-queen storytime is celebrated, but a book about the fruit of the spirit is banned?”
Mr Cameron cited the Alameda County Library system, located east of San Francisco, as saying he had been told “they didn’t want this book teaching biblical values while in at the same time they are organizing a gender name change clinic”.
“I think, wow, if we’re so into diversity, why am I being left out? Why can’t I use your facility to read my book? You are a library,” Mr. Carmeron said.
The San Lorenzo branch of the library held a free “name change and gender marker clinic” on Tuesday with Bay Area Legal Aid to update “identity documents,” including birth certificates, driver’s licenses and passports, in order to “support trans and gender non-conforming people!” as advertised on Facebook.
The Washington Times has contacted the library for comment.
It’s time to have our own BRAVE Books story time! https://t.co/KsHmvGfNbB
— BRAVE Books (@BraveBooksUS) December 8, 2022
Mr Cameron also cited the Providence, Rhode Island Public Library, which held a Drag Queen Story Hour in July with Ms Naomi, shown in a black evening dress with a thigh-high slit. The event, open to children of all ages, was billed as a way to help children “learn about gender diversity and difference”.
Providence Community Libraries released a statement on Thursday saying it is turning down most requests to co-host events, but that “Brave Books is free to request meeting room space to host an event in any of our libraries.
“We receive many unsolicited requests from individual groups to co-host events, which we are always happy to consider,” the statement read. “In the vast majority of cases, they do not lead to a partnership. Generally, as with Brave Books, we suggest that the requester consider hosting their own event in a bookable meeting room.
The library also said Brave Books “did not name any particular author or book in their appeal.”
His critics on social media reacted by accusing Mr Cameron of being a “Christian extremist” and of “preaching intolerance”.
“Kirk Cameron wasn’t deprived of storytime at libraries because he’s a Christian, it’s because he’s a dangerous right-wing fanatic,” writer Glenn Dallas tweeted. “He’s a bigger threat to your kids than a drag queen reading a story.”
Since disclosing the rejections on Fox News on Wednesday, Mr Cameron said he has received emails from hundreds of parents and librarians ‘saying we want your book and we want to host our own Brave story hour. Books”.
He encouraged Christians not to accept the status quo.
“To Christians in particular, we are often told ‘no’ in the public square,” he said. “We go home with our tails between our legs crying in our Chick-fil-A soup, waiting for the Rapture, rather than attacking and saying, let’s invest in our children and teach them the values that we want them to learn.”
Launched in January 2021, Texas-based Brave Books said its goal was “to honor God by molding a future generation of Americans” and “to help parents instill a love of truth in their children. so that they resist harmful progressive influences”.

The films are presented in way that embody the aesthetics and energy of each film. Inspired by its setting, objects, and perspective; the presentation of each film has it's own story.
The films can be experiences alone, together, through objects and interractively
Just as in a dream.
BIG OR SMALL
Simple, transportable and inexpensive materials are used to create flexibility in adapting to each space.
July 2015 we Premiered 'Dreams' at Kiosk Festival in Zilina Slovakia. The location was an abandoned electical power plant. We chose the basement of the building for it's interesting corridor of small rooms where the films were presented. We liked the rustic, rundown interior with water leaking from the walls and there was no need for extra decor. Alongside the films we performed a live installation/performance in one of the rooms.
A walk through the installation
Preview at 'Danseur' festival Charleroi Danses, Brussels Belgium 2015
We incorporated plastic from film 'Dawning' to create a wall to mount the images
The installation will find itself in the nature where many of the films were located
Not all films are long, many are short memories
We placed a fan behind the fabric to create a constant movement bringing the environment of the film into the room
We placed a wire fence between the viewer and the wall adding a layer of perspective for 'Escape'
Mirrors are used to reflect, direct and enlarge the image from projector
Mirror on the ceiling use to reflect image of woman trapped under a surface on the floor.
We collaborated with Australian sound designer James Brown. His sound plays a vital element for our films. We asked James to document and create a sound score from his dreams. This 'Alone' space is an invitation for the audience create visualizations of their own in response to the soundscpae.

HARTFORD, CT (April 16, 2021) – Many Connecticut drivers are seeing a slight decrease in price at the pump this week as supplies of gasoline have increased and helped to minimize pump price increases as demand for gasoline increased. Continued growth in total domestic gasoline supply will likely help to keep pump prices in check through this weekend.
Today’s national gas price average is $2.86, unchanged in the last week, down a penny in the last month, and up $1.03 from this time last year.
“On the week, gas price averages in Connecticut have seen very little change, however that change has been in the form of a decrease,” says Amy Parmenter, spokesperson for AAA in Greater Hartford. “Connecticut’s state gas average is flat, following the same trend as the national average.”
Crude prices have increased week-over-week due to continuing market optimism that crude demand may increase more than expected due to increasing vaccine rollouts. WTI settled at $63.15 per barrel on Wednesday, the first time since March 17 that the price settled at more than $62 per barrel. Additionally, the EIA’s weekly report revealed that total domestic crude inventory dropped last week, contributing to price increases. If crude prices continue to rise and remain high, pump prices will likely follow suit.
In Connecticut, the average price of gas is now $2.88, unchanged on the week, down a penny since last month and 88 cents higher than last year on this date.
As usual, the price of gas across CT varies by region:
- Bridgeport - $2.94, down a penny since last week
- Hartford - $2.83, down a penny since last week
- New Haven/Meriden - $2.86, down a penny since last week
- Norwich/New London - $2.91, down two cents since last week

Michael B. Jordan And Kate Mara Asked Racially Offensive Questions In ‘Fantastic Four’ Interview (VIDEO)
Michael B. Jordan and his Fantastic Four co-star Kate Mara were forced to recently sit through a racially offensive interview with two Atlanta DJs from Rock 100.5 Morning Show. The two, joined by co-star Jamie Bell, were bombarded with insensitive questions about how they could play brother and sister in the superhero film when they’re different races. Watch the video below.
“From what I’ve seen, you’re brother and sister,” DJ Jason Bailey asked Jordan, who plays Johnny Storm, and Mara, who plays his sister Sue Storm. “Right,” Jordan responded. The DJ continued, “Am I missing something?” Jordan gave the interviewer a firm “no,” but then Bailey pressed, “You’re white and you’re black. How does that happen?” Jordan explained that there a lot of different “family dynamics,” and that his character and Mara’s character were simply “raised as brother and sister.”
The already awkward interview, however, didn’t end there. DJ Steven Rickman then addressed Mara, telling her she was “way, way hot,” but didn’t understand why she cut her hair short. “Your hair was beautiful,” Rickman said. The actress mumbled, “This is a great interview,” before explaining, “I cut my hair for a movie I just did… I’m an actress. I have to be a chameleon.” Rickman then bizarrely complimented Mara on her toes before the film’s press team asked the DJs to leave.
