Virtu Ferries, the company behind a catamaran service between Malta and Sicily, has applied for a licence to operate a fast ferry service between Gozo and Malta, it announced on Monday.
The move comes after a joint announcement by Transport Minister Ian Borg and Gozo Minister Clint Camilleri in February, where they revealed the market is being liberalised and operators will therefore be able to provide a direct fast ferry service between Mgarr, Gozo and Valletta. Travelling time is expected to be just under 45 minutes.
In the company statement, Virtu Ferries said its interest in a Gozo-Malta route dates back to the company’s incorporation since 1988. In view of the market update, it has now applied with Transport Malta for a licence to operate the service.
“Virtu is looking forward to replicating the success achieved over the last 33 years on international routes, including between Malta and Sicily, on the domestic route between Maġrr and Valletta,” the company said.
It said once the service is operational, the company will be reviewing the construction of a ferry specifically for the Gozo-Valletta route.
“The proposed new ferry will conform to highest environmental standards in place at time of build, respecting stringent Emission Regulations and guidelines issued by the International Maritime Organization (IMO),” it said.
While the fast ferry service has been an electoral proposal by successive Labour Governments, controversy emerged after the Public Contracts Review Board had, in 2019, decided that a contract awarded by Gozo Channel, the state ferry company, to Island Ferries, was null and void since the contract agreement was concluded before a final decision on the tender was made.
Government has said it wants a Gozo-Valletta fast ferry service operational from 1st June.
Companies had to pay their debts to staff, together with hefty financial penalties

In this episode of Next Level Human Podcast, Dr. Jade connects with Dr. Latt Mansor. Dr. Mansor is the Research Lead at HVMN and has a background in metabolism and physiology. Today, he talks about how ketones impact almost everything in our bodies and how they can improve performance, body functions, and overall energy.
Dr. Mansor also explains that inflammation in the body and even chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension can all be caused – or at least influenced – by our diet. One way to start optimizing our daily diet is by looking at insulin levels: high levels of insulin tend to be responsible for these issues and are also connected with our daily carbohydrate intake.
In addition, Dr. Mansor also dives deep into ‘exogenous ketones’. Exogenous ketones are ketones we can take from outside sources (like a supplement) but he explains that if an individual is already following a ketogenic diet to lose weight (meaning ketones are already being made by the body) there is no need to benefit from this alternative.

Before the 2012-13 season began Loyola Marymount had the look of a team capable of being a factor in the race for fourth behind WCC titans Gonzaga, Saint Mary’s and BYU.
Sure Max Good’s team lost wing Drew Viney, but with the return of point guard Anthony Ireland and forward Ashley Hamilton the Lions didn’t lack for individual talent.
To say the least the season did not go as planned, as LMU managed to win just one conference game and finished the season with an 11-23 overall record (they managed to win three conference tournament games). With that in mind an infusion of talent is needed, and the hope for LMU is that the additions of guard Nino Jackson and forward Gabe Levin will help.
LMU announced the signing of Jackson, a 6-2 guard from Ardmore, Okla. who attended Kingdom Christian Academy in Georgia this year, on Wednesday afternoon and from a talent standpoint the Lions are getting a steal.
“We are very excited to have Nino joining our program,” said Good in the release. “He is a multi-talented player that can hurt an opponent in so many ways. He has had to work hard to get where he is today, to graduate from Kingdom and to earn a Division I scholarship and that gives him a lot of maturity that really shows on the court.”
But for all the physical gifts there were also off-court issues for Jackson, which ultimately led him to Kingdom Christian. In their victory in the title game of the NACA Division III tournament Jackson led the way for a team that finished the game with just four players due to fouls.
Levin, a 6-7 power forward from St. Thomas More (CT), wasn’t included in the release as he has yet to sign with Loyola Marymount. But the one-time Hofstra commit (reopened his recruitment following the firing of Mo Cassara) has the skill needed to help LMU account for the graduation of Hamilton next season.
Jackson and Levin are the third and fourth players to commit to Loyola Marymount, with guard Evan Payne (who was a teammate of Jackson’s at Kingdom Christian) and 6-10 center Patson Siame being the others.
With the talent entering the program and the return of Ireland, Loyola Marymount hopes to have the pieces needed to avoid a repeat of last season.

text: The practice of storing South Platte River water in offstream reservoirs reduces nutrient concentrations but also contributes to the growth of algae, which may adversely affect the recreational use of the reservoirs. Results of a study of five offstream reservoirs in the lower South Platte River Basin during the 1995 irrigation season showed that the reservoirs trapped 20 to 88 percent of incoming nitrogen and phosphorus, except for phosphorus in one reservoir. Total nitrogen concentrations in the reservoirs were highest in March and decreased through September, largely as a result of uptake by algae and other aquatic life for growth. Total phosphorus concentrations in the reservoirs were more variable because of the recycling of phosphorus by aquatic life. Chlorophyll-a concentrations indicated that the amount of algae in all reservoirs increased during the summer and that all reservoirs were eutrophic. This study was done by the U.S. Geological Survey as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program.

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to try something a little different in the way of spa treatments. Bompas and Parr teamed up with Mondrian Hotels to present a once off experience. The spa of Unconscious Desires. It’s designed to push the boundaries between comfort, fear and disgust. Whilst receiving a beauty treatment.
We received cocktails and a tasty bite to eat whilst waiting to get our nails done. I felt like a kid again when my tongue turned blue from the cake. My mood of the night was to be a little adventurous in my colour selections, opting for royal blue nails. Bold I know! I loved the colour. It isn’t something I usually go for, but I was quite happy with the results. It has given me the urge to paint my nails more and using brighter bolder colours. It brightens up your mood a little. I need to add a bit more colour in my life!
Shamanic Egg Healing was quite a relaxing option. As a group, we all came together to the central area to take part in the practice. Using an egg, we had to think of something that may be troubling us. Something we want to let go of. Stress, fear, a pain etc. Then we had to push that feeling into the egg, moving it along our body to release it from us. At the end we were able to break the egg into a bowl. This is a technique which has been used for centuries to rid the body of unwanted toxins.
Magma massage sounded delightful. Unfortunately I was unable to secure a spot due to the popularity. Instead I went with the shadow wrap. I was a little confused with what this was. Being cocooned in a whole body wrap sounded like what I needed. All while listening to an immersive monologue. During the monologue we were to receive a muscle melting scalp treatment.’
I ended up sitting on a chair with a cloth over my eyes and the headphones placed over my ears. The lady, I’m assuming, forgot to actually play the monologue as I heard nothing.
The neck and scalp massage was exactly what I needed. Especially seeing as I had a headache drilling into the back of my head. It helped me to relax, and relieve some of that pressure from the headache. I enjoyed it overall. Even if I was missing half of what was on offer.
Being able to have a night of pampering was a great way to wind down from a busy day at work. Something I won’t often do for myself. I should be adding it to my life because once in a while it’s nice to stop and relax and listen to our body’s needs. Don’t over-do it. Enjoy a little pampering, even if it’s a little different from the norm.
The Spa of Unconscious Experience cost £80.00 and was on the 19th of September. Hopefully Bompas and Parr will bring it back. It’s well worth it.

HOW IT WORKS
BREEAM International New Construction is a multi-criteria approach that assesses the design, construction, intended use and future-proofing of developments, including the local, natural or manmade environment surrounding the building.
All newly constructed projects can be certified, including public, private, residential and commercial buildings, as well as building extensions.
WHAT WE DO
- Feasibility consideration of the assessment strategy
- Pre-assessment advice on development proposals
- Advice on local context issues
- Advice on maximising BREEAM scores and minimizing extra costs.
- Projects registration within BREEAM.
- Design stage assessments and obtaining BREEAM interim classification.
- Monitoring and advice during the construction phase.
- Formal post construction assessments and BREEAM certification (review of interim assessments or new assessment).


the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak will lead to a sharp increase in the amount of contactless payment. The next Apple Corp’s anti monopoly war will revolve around the Apple Pay. In 2020, the Cupertino based technology giant spent a lot of time fighting charges of anti competitive behavior in its app store. By contrast, Apple’s financial services business has received little attention in the United States. In a 450 page report released in October by the U.S. Congress antitrust sub committee, almost nothing about financial services was mentioned.
but because of novel coronavirus global pandemic, consumers are trying to avoid touching buttons or handling cash, thus Apple Pay’s business is growing rapidly. This month, Jennifer Bailey, head of Apple pay, said contactless payments had “transformed from a convenient means of payment to an important public health issue.”. < / P > < p > in a survey, visa found that nearly half of consumers “would not” choose to shop in stores that do not offer touch free checkout services. < / P > < p > Apple pay allows users to store payment card details on an iPhone or apple watch and pay by clicking on the terminal. Loup ventures analysts say apple pay is currently used by about 507 million people worldwide, about half of the world’s iPhone users, up from 67 million four years ago. < / P > < p > Apple charges a 0.15% handling fee for each transaction via Apple pay. Before the outbreak of the new crown, Bernstein analysts predicted that Apple would facilitate one tenth of the world’s credit card transactions by 2025. “Apple is really using the apple pay team to build a financial services giant,” said Jason Gardner, chief executive of marqeta, a California based payment platform < / P > < p > “Apple wallet is a killer app that is more powerful than most people in the world now understand. In the future, this will definitely be a battlefield for regulators. ” < / P > < p > in June, the European Commission launched a formal antitrust investigation into Apple pay, and the Dutch competition regulator also launched an investigation this month. Philip Lowe, the governor of Australia’s central bank, recently said Apple’s payment method “raises a series of competition issues.”. Thomas vinje, a partner at Clifford Chance, said EU regulators were keen to keep Apple pay high on the agenda. “In my opinion, the EU’s appetite for antitrust litigation against apple is very strong, and clearly there is a politically relevant impetus behind it,” he said Jonathan Osborne, a former federal prosecutor and gunster lawyer in Florida, said: “Apple offers consumers only one choice of payment service, which is bound to attract the attention of regulators.” < / P > < p > however, Apple claims that the restriction is for security reasons. Bailey told the European Commission in December that Apple wanted to protect data privacy for all users. < / P > < p > she said: “we don’t store or access your original bank card or credit card number, nor will merchants. So when you use Apple pay to buy things, apple doesn’t know what you bought or where you bought it. ” According to Bailey, competitors may use “a technology architecture that is ultimately less private and less secure.”. However, critics point out that Apple does acquiesce in car manufacturers, hotel companies and fitness equipment manufacturers to use NFC chips on their devices to implement some non payment functions. < / P > < p > another problem is that unlike competitors’ payment tools such as PayPal, apple pay’s wallet app is pre installed on Apple devices and users cannot delete it. In addition, Apple has taken some measures to encourage users to use it. “If possible, you need to make apple pay the default payment option,” Apple said in its online guide to app developers. If the user has Apple pay enabled, assume that person wants to use it. You need to consider using the apple pay button as the first or only payment option, showing it larger than the other options, or visually distinguishing it with a single line. ” < / P > < p > such a strategy could be opposed under rules proposed by the EU this week. The rule requires large technology companies not to promote their services to a level higher than their competitors on their operating platforms. < / P > < p > Arik shtilman, chief executive of rapid, a financial technology services group, predicts that if Apple can avoid regulatory pressure, its payment division’s revenue may eventually exceed that of the app store. In the past 12 months, the app store has generated more than $20 billion in net revenue for apple, according to sensor tower. “The impact of Apple pay on revenue can easily be much greater than the app store,” says Stillman Given the proliferation of e-commerce transactions, the rise of contactless in store payments, and the revenue Apple earns from credit card transactions, the opportunities for Apple pay are “endless,” he said. “No one can deny that Apple pay will not grow at a compound rate and reach tens of billions of dollars in revenue in 10 years,” he said < / P > < p > the relatively cautious data is that evercore ISI analysts believe that by 2024, apple pay’s handling fees could reach $6.5 billion.
, however, Apple Pay has not yet had an impact on some large markets, especially in China, which is dominated by Alipay (Alipay) and WeChat (Pay), and 85% of Mexico people use Android mobile phone. “It’s cool, it’s good, it shows that Apple pay is not the only option, its services are very different geographically,” said Thomas Olsen, a consultant to Bain consultant < / P > < p > at the same time, in the United States and Europe, Google, Samsung, Starbucks, venmo, Zelle, square and Amazon all offer digital wallet services. Some companies are far bigger than apple in the P2P payment field, and most of them have Android and IOS applications at the same time, which makes them occupy a broader market. < / P > < p > however, unlike the companies mentioned above, apple is linking the services it can provide in a number of ways to expand its reach. For example, rewards are offered according to the number of credit cards bound in the user’s wallet to encourage P2P payment in Apple’s wallet in the future, rather than pushing these potential users into the hands of Zelle or venmo. < p > < p > Interior intelligence payment analyst Jaime toplin predicts that increasing the user stickiness of Apple pay will help Apple expand more “value-added services”, such as “buy it now” and “pay first”.
Alipay and WeChat payments have shown how businesses can expand from contactless payment solutions to value-added areas such as microfinance, wealth management, insurance and payment bills. It’s not clear if Apple has such ambitions. But when Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive, was asked in October about Apple pay, his excitement was palpable. “Apple pay has performed exceptionally well,” cook told investors He added that the novel coronavirus had made the United States “take a different track” when using non-contact technology. “So we are very optimistic about this area. In this area, apple can do more, so this is an area of great interest to us. ” The iPhone 12 keynote has been recorded in Apple park

Calls have been made to extend this year’s Georgian Day celebrations to cover more of the city centre.
It is still two months to ago until the big day, Armagh’s unique kick-start to the festive season which draws tens of thousands to the city centre.
Already 70 stalls have signed up for the occasion, it was revealed at a meeting of the council’s economic development and regeneration committee.
New activities have been planned at the Shambles Yard.
It is intended to increase the number of park and ride spaces available and operate a bus service to the Shambles Yard.
Ulster Unionist Alderman Jim Speers congratulations the Theatre Director (Armagh) – who presented a progress report to the council – and the officers involved.
He said it was a “magical day in Armagh for both visitors and traders”.
But he highlighted the need to try and extend the impact of the event throughout the city as some areas, such as Dobbin Street, were feeling excluded.
Independent Unionist Councillor Paul Berry said Georgian Day was a fantastic day in the city, but he pointed out that there was now less car parking spaces in Scotch Street and that businesses in that area also felt excluded.
Sinn Fein Councillor Garath Keating said stall holders would be prepared to pay more to trade at the event.
In relation to the price of stalls, the Theatre Director said officers took feedback from the stall holders and some felt they were paying too much while others were happy to pay more. She advised fees had increased this year and that the focus was on getting high quality stalls.
In relation to the availability, she said stalls were publicly advertised and that allocation was given to traders selling locally produced products and city centre traders.
SDLP Councillor Sharon Haughey-Grimley, who chairs the economic development committee, said she was pleased the event was spreading to other areas of the city.
She explained that local traders had highlighted difficulties with getting a stall at the event and suggested it would be useful to carry out a promotion local retailers.
The Theatre Director said in relation to the spread of the event a meeting had been planned with business owners and City Centre Management to discuss this.
She also reported that the event was developing each year and 70 stalls were already booked for 2015.
Georgian Day this year takes place on Saturday, November 28.

The NSW Government is upgrading Woolwich Wharf as part of the Transport Access Program.
A Review of Environmental Factors has been prepared for the upgrade and is on public display until Sunday 3 November 2019.More information
Members of the project team will be available at Garibaldi Village Square (37 Alexandra Street, Hunters Hill) on Saturday 19 October.
Come and meet the team anytime between 10am and 12pm.
The upgrade is part of the major progressive upgrade of ferry wharves across Sydney Harbour which aims to improve Sydney’s ferry services for customers, delivering accessible, safe and comfortable public transport infrastructure. New and upgraded wharfs are being delivered as part of the NSW Government’s Transport Access Program.
Woolwich Wharf would be closed for about five months during the wharf upgrade. During weekday peak periods, customers would be able to catch the 505 bus service operating between Woolwich Wharf and City Town Hall in the peak direction only.
At other times, customers would be able to catch the 538 bus service (Woolwich to Gladesville) and could interchange at either Hunters Hill or Gladesville for connecting bus services, depending on time of day. The 538 bus service would have extended hours during the wharf upgrade to match the ferry times. Updated timetables would be provided prior to the start of construction.
The temporary closure of Woolwich Wharf would not affect the timetable for ferry services to other wharves.
Customers would be encouraged to plan their trip by visiting transport.info or calling Transport Info on 131 500 before starting their journey.
Standard work hours would be between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday and between 8am and 1pm on Saturdays. Some of the work during these times would be noisy. No work is planned on Sundays or public holidays.
Early morning or night work would be required when the water is at its calmest and some work needs very still water for safety and accuracy. This would include installing piles and lifting sections of the wharf in place. Most of the new sections of the wharf would be built off side, transported to the site and installed. Installing piles may be noisy, however, the wharf would be intermittent.
The upgraded wharf would provide customers with an improved public transport experience. The new wharf would include a floating pontoon connected to land by an uncovered gangway and entry bridge.
The pontoon would have a curved roof, seating and glass weather protection panels. All existing wharf structures would be removed.
Some of the land surrounding the wharf would also be upgraded to improve customer facilities and meet accessibility requirements. The waiting shelter and toilet would be refurbished and accessible paths to the wharf would be provided. The footpath would be raised and three accessible parking spaces would be realigned. Two kiss and ride parking spaces and new bicycle parking hoops near the wharf entry would also be provided.

The cause of the trend is … Hase brother! ?? (Photo courtesy of ABC TV)
At midnight on Monday, a mysterious phenomenon is occurring in which fashion brand “HYSTERIC GLAMOR” regularly trendes on Twitter.
“Hysteric Glamor” is a fashion brand based on American casual, with a collection that incorporates elements of rock, art, and subculture from the 1960s and 1980s. It was launched in 1984 by designer Nobuhiko Kitamura.
Such “Hysteric Glamor” entered the trend on Twitter at midnight on August 23rd. “Why Hysteric Glamor?” “I was impatient because I was crushed” “I miss you” “I used to wear it when I was a teenager” It was different.
“Ah, is it Hase Kore today?” “I looked it up because there was a hysteric glamor in the trend, and I was doing it after all (laughs)” “Kansai people who regret having missed the passing TV due to the trend of hysteric glamor …” Tweet. Because, in Kansai, “Hysteric Glamor” now means “Hase Kore”.
◇ What is “Hase Kore”, which is popular among Kansai people?
“Hase Kore” is a nickname for “Too Fashionable Hase Brother NGK Collection”, a special project of the Kansai local variety show “Narumi Okamura no Sugi TV” (ABC TV), in which comedian Narumi and Ninety Nine Takashi Okamura act as MCs. .. A camera is secretly installed in the lobby of the people involved in “Namba Grand Kagetsu”, and the program unilaterally introduces the coordination of the casual clothes of Hiroshi Hasegawa, a comic artist who enters the dressing room.
Hase’s novel outfit, known as Yoshimoto Ichi’s fashion monster, has been a hot topic every time, and with the memorable live commentary of DJ Hammer (Tenderer Hamamoto), it has become a popular corner since the beginning of the program in 2014. Since Hase brother appeared wearing “Hysteric Glamor” jeans and riders every time it was broadcast, the composition of “Hysteric Glamor trending = Hase Kore” became solid in the Kansai area.
In the “Too Fashionable Hase Brother NGK Collection 2021 Summer” broadcast on the 23rd, white denim and red caps of “Hysteric Glamor” appeared, and DJ Hammer also said “His! Hysteric! Hysteric Glamor!” A scream of delight.
In SNS, there are many people who are waiting before the hysteric glamor comes out, saying “I’m waiting” and “I want to scream quickly”. There were a lot of people who enjoyed the familiar phenomenon, such as “I said” and “Entering the trend is basic four times a year in Kansai”.
The momentum of Hase’s fashionable trend has not stopped, and a new brand “HASE2” that serves as an artistic director is born. T-shirts, setups, sandals, and underwear designed with the “HASE2” logo and Hase brother’s mark will be on sale online, and “Namba Grand Kagetsu” (Chuo-ku, Osaka) will be on sale for a limited time from August 24th. A pop-up booth will open on the first floor.
The next “Hase Kore” will be around the fall of 2021, and I’m looking forward to seeing it enter the trend again. “Fashion Jason” by DJ Hammer, “Spanish version Tora-san is not a setta but sneakers”, “It was Hase brother ahead”, “Hase patience” and other power words exploded on the 23rd broadcast “Tver” Overlooked and delivered.

As far as I’m concerned, this low carb pecan pie is the BEST pie recipe at Thanksgiving dinner (that’s right low carb pumpkin pie and apple pie)!
There are so many reasons why this pie is my fave: Starting with its ultra buttery and flaky crust, followed by its delectably sweet filling.
This recipe is based on my Mama’s pecan pie recipe (which was always my fave), with a few simple ingredients swaps. Serve it alongside other classics like low carb pumpkin cheesecake and low carb pumpkin muffins to show your friends and fam that low carb desserts are JUST AS DANG GOOD!
This low carb pecan pie recipe is everything you love in a traditional pecan pie (buttery, nutty, rich, decadent, and sweet) BUT, in low carb, sugar-free, gluten-free form. Bam! Here’s what to expect:
- No sugar comma!
- 30-minute prep
- Cozy, holiday vibes
- It doesn’t taste low carb…
The hardest part of making a keto pecan pie (or any pecan pie for that matter) is the decorative topping. Other than that, this recipe is easy as pie. (Sorry, had to!)
Here are a few tricks to ensure success:
- Don’t skip the xanthan gum – this thickens the pecan pie filling and binds everything together. Without it, the pie won’t set.
- Use my low carb pie crust! Sorry everyone else, but this recipe is seriously the BEST. It’s easy and tastes just like traditional. There are a few extra steps to keeping the butter cold. Follow them to ensure you achieve that flakey texture. It also makes the crust easy to work with.
- Make a foil collar around the crust, as the high-fat content of this crust makes it more susceptible to burning.
- Bake your pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Otherwise, the butter in the crust will drip onto the bottom of the oven and create a giant mess.
- Sweetener – Since pecan pie is typically enjoyed warm, I like erythritol based keto sweeteners such as Lakanto or Swerve here — both of which can be used as a 1:1 swap with traditional sugar. If you see yourself eating a cold slice of low carb pecan pie, opt for allulose instead.
Can You Freeze This?
Yes! Slice it up and freeze! Toss each slice in a small zip-top baggie for easy to reheat portions, or freeze the entire pie in a large ziplock for make-ahead pie success. Allow them to thaw in the fridge before reheating.
BONUS: no one will know they were previously frozen!
In my opinion, pecan pie should absolutely be served warm with a big-old-scoop of low carb ice cream on top. Feel free to swap the ice cream for sugar free whipped cream if that’s more your style.
As with most baked goods, there isn’t a ton of wiggle room with the ingredients. SO, here are the few exceptions if you want to add your own spin to things:
- Try a different crust. IMHO, this almond flour crust is the best. But, if you have a nut allergy, or really love the flavor of coconut, check out my coconut flour pie crust.
- Use a different kind of nuts. Although pecans are traditional in a pecan pie, you could always try to mix things up with your favorite nuts! Walnuts would be my first choice.
- Add some spices. Mix in pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, you name it.
- Add some chocolate, maybe with a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate syrup over a freshly baked slice?
What’s dinner (or lunch/breakfast for that matter) without dessert?! Here are a few more low carb recipes such to fill your home with delicious smells and satiated bellies:
- Low Carb Zucchini Bread
- Low Carb Carrot Cake
- Low Carb Banana Bread
- Low Carb Cheesecake
- Low Carb Cinnamon Rolls
Low Carb Pecan PiePrint Recipe Pin Recipe
- 1 Low Carb Pie Crust unbaked
- 4 Large Eggs
- 1 1/2 Cup Golden Swerve or Lakanto (see sweetener notes below) packed
- 3/4 Cup Heavy Cream
- 1 Teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1/4 Cup Unsalted Butter melted + cooled slightly
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
- 2 Cups Pecans chopped
- 3/4 Cup Pecan halves
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Use an electric mixer to whisk the eggs ( 4 large in size).
- Add brown erythritol (1 1/2 cup), heavy cream (3/4 cup), salt (1/2 teaspoon), melted butter (1/4 cup), xanthan gum (1 teaspoon), vanilla (1 teaspoon) and combine.
- Butter your pie pan, then line it with your crust -- if using my low carb pie crust, roll into a 13" circle between 2 sheets of parchment. Place it inside the buttered pie pan. Fold over the edges, and press them with a fork.
- Sprinkle chopped pecans (2 cups) into the pie crust.
- Pour egg mixture over the pecans.
- Arrange pecan halves on top of the filling.
- Brush the edge of your crust with whisked egg using a pastry brush.
- Place pie on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake in your preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Remove your pie from the oven, and create a collar of foil around the crust (this will prevent it from burning as it's higher in fat than most pie crusts).
- Reduce the heat of your oven to 325 degrees and continue to bake 45-55 minutes -- you'll know your pie is done once the center is firm.
- Allow pie to cool before slicing, and enjoy!
Fans Also Made These Low Carb Recipes:
- Lakanto, Swerve, or Erythritol. I stick to Lakanto and Swerve which are a 1:1 swap with traditional sugar. If using a different brand of Erythritol, keep in mind it's 70% as sweet as sugar, so you may need to add more to taste.
- Pie Crust - I always use my low carb pie crust for this!
- Burning the crust - Some pie crusts burn easily, to prevent this, create a collar to protect your crust with foil.around the edge of the crust using tin foil.
- Xanthan Gum is necessary for binding the ingredients of this recipe together, you CAN'T SKIP OR SUB!

On Wednesday, Christmas Eve, from 6 to 8 p.m., JR’s Burgers on West Front Street will be giving out free burgers, sodas and fries.
By DAN NATALE
Jrs., the first expansion of the popular Jr.’s West End burger place owned by Mike DeSimone, opened a few days before Hurricane Sandy hit, becoming the fourth downtown eatery to keep late hours, staying open until 4 a.m. every day.
With a number of bars just steps away, the tiny West Front Street restaurant immediately attracted a colorful crowd at closing time.
By JOHN T. WARD
A bustling corner with an Urban Outfitters right next door.
Four bars within a couple of hundred feet disgorging revelers who just might want a gourmet-quality burger to cap off the night.
A nearby hospital with hundreds of employees working around the clock.
A northern beachhead for his highly successful Jr’s West End, the Long Branch late-night restaurant he launched five years ago.
In fact, DeSimone liked the location so much that he persuaded a group of friends to buy the former home of Zuleyka’s Kitchen so his business could lease out the ground floor space.
He even plans to live upstairs.

Bend community members and visitors have already seen new inspiration, messages and lots of orange popping up on social media and around town as part of the Bend JOY Project. Back for its third consecutive year, the project has recently launched a new program — a 10-Day Community Challenge. Designed to help individuals and families take a thoughtful approach to fostering joy and positivity, the Community Challenge includes a downloadable checklist to help guide meaningful moments.
The Bend JOY Project’s Community Challenge includes the following categories to help participants “Plan out each day with friends or family and let their JOY flags fly.”
Each day’s theme includes tips and ideas for fulfilling the challenge and a downloadable checklist is available on the website.
Many more events, activities and materials are spreading JOY through the spring in Bend, including inspirational messages on shareable bookmarks, social media, banners, billboards, daily text messages and more. The community is encouraged to get involved and many opportunities are available to incorporate JOY into the workplace, existing community events, schools, nonprofit organization initiatives and other partnerships. Bend JOY Project materials — stickers, postcards, bookmark share cards and posters, for example — are available at the Ticket Mill in the Old Mill District through April.
The Bend JOY Project is a challenge, a conversation, an opportunity, an experiment and a mission to bring joy in meaningful ways to keep our community happy, strong and vibrant. The Bend JOY Project launched for the first time in 2017 to inspire kindness and thoughtful actions in the community. It was so well received that it continues to return, with new expressions of JOY, each year.
