Ian Boswell
American Ian Boswell is in his third season with Team Sky and has lived in Nice since he signed for the team. Within that time he has honed both his coffee-making, French speaking skills and ability to drill it on the front for the men in black and blue.
There are some quite famous residents who also ride bikes in Nice-Monaco area, do you ever train with the F1 guys?
Indeed there are a few "famous residents" here on the Cote d'Azur. I have been out cycling with a few of the F1 and Moto GP guys, however, as I don't follow those sports, I usually do not know who they are until afterwards when someone informs me of their identity. On the contrary, I ride with a lot of star cyclists, who I know very well.
What's your favourite climb and/or descent in the region?
My favourite French climb would have to be Col de la Bonette. The Bonette is only 90km from my house in Nice and happens to be the highest paved pass in Europe. The views from the climb are stunning, and the descent off either side is worth all the effort in climbing up to 2800 meters.
Are you more in touch with French cycling, riders and the language now?
My comprehension of the French language has improved while living in France. I make a good effort to speak with French riders in races when I can, and through that I have started to pick up on some of the history and passion of French cycling culture.
What do you think of French food? Better than American fare?
French hands down. I do miss a good burrito and Mexican food, but the quality and freshness of the ingredients here in France makes even the simplest of dishes delicious. There are a few restaurants here I always go to when I need to excite my taste buds. But there are so many good bistros and brasseries. My favourite places are always the small family-run establishments; no reservations, closed as much as they are open, and always a changing menu depending on the season and what looks good at the market that day.
Can you find good coffee in France?
Best coffee in France… my house?
Is France the true home of road racing?
In this day it's hard to say where the "home of cycling" is; Belgium, Italy, France. They all embrace cycling in a different way. Here in France with Le Tour, the sport is propelled into another level of popularity. The French have a long and passionate history with cycling and that really comes to the fore when you see a race like the Tour.
What makes the Tour so special, for you?
While I have never raced the Tour, it more than any other race captivated my dreams as a young cyclist. Three weeks of racing over all sorts of terrain on the world's stage is eye opening for a young kid. I remember waking up early every morning (9 hour time difference back to my home on the west coast of the states) in July when I was younger to watch the Tour and cheer on my favourite riders. With the prestige and pride that comes with winning the Tour or even a stage, I feel that you always see the most beautiful and dramatic racing.
What will you be doing in France in July?
I will not be doing Le Tour de France, but will be setting off on my own mini tour of France. My brother and I, along with teammate Nathan Earle and our good friend Pete Celone, have decided to embark on a mini self-contained bike trip leaving from Nice and heading into the hills. We have very little planning but lots of daylight, so we will see where the roads take us.
Luke Rowe
25 year old Rowe has been with Team Sky since 2012. A strong all rounder with a top ten at Paris-Roubaix this season, Luke is hoping to secure his first ever ride at the Tour de France next month, where his ability to battle will be invaluable.
Do you think living down here has made you more suited to stage races?
Absolutely, 100%. You get so many altitude meters training here and in a safe, traffic-free environment (once you escape the coast road). I can literally roll out of my front door and start climbing immediately.
Are you aware of other Welsh riders who've lived and trained down here before?
It's always been a hotbed for cyclists. I think the Nice-Monaco area, along with Girona in Catalonia are the two most populated areas with professional cyclists. G (Geraint Thomas) moved down a few years back and as far as I'm aware he was the first and only Welshy (laughs) but there has been a fair few Brits based over here for quite some years now…
What do you think of French food? Better than food at home?
To be honest it can be hit and miss. I actually prefer to cross the border into Italy and grab a pizza or a nice fresh plate of pasta.
Is France the true home of road racing?
I would say yes, along with Belgium. For me these are the two standout countries where cycling is a true passion for many people. They understand the sport and have a lot of time for it. The biggest and best race in the world and the world's biggest sporting event says it all – the Tour de France!
What makes the Tour so special, for you?
It's road racing's pinnacle. It just sums up the sport. The mountains, the summer, the suffering… Whenever cycling is mentioned, even if you're just speaking to someone on the street or another cyclist, the Tour will always come up in conversation. As soon as you mention cycle racing, it's instantly associated with the Tour.
Is it a good community of riders down here?
It's a great set up down here, we have around 10 Team Sky riders based in the area and also a few members of staff. We often get together for a meal or a coffee and do a lot of our training together. Last night for example we had a team meal at the Team Sky house with 21 of us there (one for each stage of the Tour in fact). It's great to not only be team mates but also a close group of friends. That essentially makes you a much stronger unit when it comes to race day. Unity.
What will you be doing in France in July?
Time will tell…]]>
For the launch of his new book, Vélochef, Rapha sat down with Henrik at the Cycle Club in London to discuss his relationship with cycling, and what it's like to feed one of the highest profile teams in the professional peloton.
Your book contains recipes specifically for cyclists. Where does your interest in the sport come from?
My father was an Olympian, with lots of international cycling victories. He also ran the local cycling club in Tönsberg, Norway. My brother too was a dedicated cyclist who raced nationally. Weekends were dominated with the sport growing up, so it has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. We could never go on holiday in July because it clashed with the big races, and if we were, we'd be inside between three and five watching the Tour.
And what about cooking?
I fell in love with cooking – that was my passion. I trained in France, and have worked in some of the finest restaurants in Europe. Combining cooking with cycling was purely a lucky turn. After a few years as head chef for Matsalen, a two star Michelin restaurant in Stockholm, I wanted to do something different. I got talking to the DS for the Norwegian Cycling Federation, and he asked me if I would cook for the team after the riders complained about their hotel food during the world championships. I cooked for them the following year, and it really worked. And because it was the first time the team used a chef, Norwegian television filmed a short interview. The next day the station came back and asked if I'd do something else with them, which lead to the programme we made following the Tour – cooking dishes from the different regions the race passed through, from a little van.
This must have brought you close to the teams competing in the race.
We made the programme for two years, preparing food as the race progressed. Using a small generator, one or two plates, we'd set up anywhere. Once I even cooked tartiflette on top of a mountain. During that time Team Sky was pretty dominant, both in 2012 and 2013, and I became good friends with Edvald Boasson Hagen [Team Sky, 2010-2014]. He asked if I could spend a few days with them at a training camp to see how they do things, and it turned out that they needed some help filling a few holes in the calendar during that season. The relationship has grown from there.
Cooking for cyclists must be quite different to preparing meals for guests at a Michelin starred restaurant.
I use my experience from high quality restaurants to build excitement for the riders. They have to consume so many calories when they race and train, that eating can become a very boring exercise. I want them to look forward to coming to eat – for it to be something more than an activity they simply have to do. The same way I would prepare an exciting taster menu for a restaurant, I try to be creative within the limitations of the produce available and the types of food the riders can eat.
Feeding nine riders during a Grand Tour can't be easy. What does a typical day look like for you on Tour?
I work 14-15 hours per day. We prepare breakfast for the guys at 7, and they'll stay for maybe an hour. Once they've eaten we pack up the truck and then go shopping for the evening meal whilst they are racing. We don't have fridge space to store food for the duration of the Tour, so we have to source meat and fish almost every day. We'll then drive to the next hotel, and begin preparing dinner. Rest days are even harder because we have to prepare lunch – normally the guys are on the bike.
You prepare food for the riders whilst they're on the bike, too.
They load up their pockets before they go out. Usually with rice cakes, brownies, a piece of banana bread [featured in the book], and panini filled with ham and cheese. A selection of these will be in their musettes, too. The guys have a large menu on the bike. It also changes regularly, with many requests.
Does it ever scare you, fueling Team Sky's races?
I don't think about it that way, I just want to make them happy. Obviously my worst nightmare would be something like food poisoning, which could potentially wipe out the whole team. But that won't happen. You can't take risks. It's a big responsibility, but I see it as nine hungry bike riders coming for dinner every day. I felt more pressure being in charge of a two star Michelin restaurant where customers come and pay £300-400 for a meal.
What do you think about French food?
French food is so geographical, and quite unique in that way. You can look at the parcours of the Tour and see it pass through mountains home to famous cheeses, and villages renowned for certain dishes. Everything has a story, and comes from a particular place. If it's done well, France's classic cuisine is truly unbeatable. Beef bourguignon, carefully cooked for a long time, served with a bottle of red wine and the right atmosphere has to be my favourite.
What inspired you to sign up to the Rapha Manchester – London ride last year?
It was a moment of madness… The girls from the office wanted to do something as a team that challenged us, and it seemed challenging enough!
Have you ever tackled a ride like this before?
No. I had done the London Revolution – a two-day, 185 mile sportive – with my Dad, which I found tricky in parts, so it was a scary prospect to try and attempt an even bigger distance in a single day.
Can you tell us a bit about your background and your passion for riding?
I rode a lot as a kid and our family holidays were geared towards cycling. I moved to London four years ago and could not stand public transport so I brought my little shopper down and fell back in love with riding through that.
What were your biggest concerns about taking on a 220-mile ride? How did you train and keep motivated for it?
My biggest concerns about riding the 220 miles was letting my team down if I could not make it. It was a powerful motivator to get out and train. Training as a group was also good as you couldn't just give a ride a miss if you weren't feeling like it that day because the others were waiting for you.
What would you say to any other women thinking of taking on this ride or getting into cycling in general?
Take as much advice as possible but try and filter it. Don't be pressured into doing something you don't want to do, if you want to start training on a hybrid and no chamois cream in your shorts that's fine, you don't have to go all out straight away, it's completely normal not to want to do that. As you develop as a cyclist and learn more you'll learn what you want to get out of it. Just go to the level you want to go to, let it happen naturally and enjoy it for what it is.
What was the furthest you rode before the big day?
We rode together most weekends, building up slowly. The biggest distance we did was 205k, going to Battle and back in a day. Having the team around me was so important as I'm not a very strong rider. You don't want to disappoint yourself but more than anything you don't want to let your team down. Although that's a lot of pressure, it's good pressure.
Did it make a difference to be training and riding with colleagues/friends from the office on the day?
It made a massive difference to me. You get to know one another and when you're not having a good time you don't even need to say anything – the team know and pulls round you. We ended up being able to ride together very fast which helped a lot on the day. Lots of random things happen on a bike when you're riding with other people that you share an experience with one another, you see things, and the conversations are really odd because you never quite finish one! To this day we still talk about the silly things that happened on the day.
How important was it for you to have support from your family?
I was so nervous that my Dad offered to drive the route behind the team with a bike rack and lots of food in case I needed to drop out. There was plenty of food at each stop but it was lovely to see him at each stop saying, "You're doing great, kid!"
You fundraised to support Ambitious about Autism. How did you raise the money, who did you ask and how much did you raise in the end?
Our team didn't just ride together, we did the fundraising together too. Working in product development, we decided to make a special edition jersey for a customer. We auctioned it off and the person who bought it could specify the colours, the fabric and trim. The person who bid the highest got a jersey made for a friend in his favourite football team's colours.
Do you have a final message for your fellow Manchester to London riders or for anyone still thinking about signing up?
Just go for it! It was the most amazing ride I have done – the sensory experience was incredible and the sense of achievement was overwhelming. To start something that I believed was impossible, and finish with all my friends and me smiling was very special. Even on the day I honestly still didn't think it was achievable and that I wasn't going to make it, and I was sure I'd be jumping in my Dad's car at some point. And yes there were some really low moments, but the highs were 100% worth it. Crossing the finish line was absolutely amazing, and it was such a beautiful route. I didn't think it was going to be that good, but it was. I'd love to do it with my Dad next year because he hadn't thought it possible either but watching us do it from the car made him want to do it too.
Café 't Hijgend Hert, situated on top of the Vijlenerberg hill in Limburg, was chosen as the start and finish location and riders hailing from Holland, Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, Great Britain and even Poland and Chechnya began arriving at first light on the Saturday morning. As the first teams lined up for the start at 7.30 am, thick clouds moved in from the valley and unleashed their rainy burdens. It didn't stop for hours.
The first few kilometres winding through forests on gravel paths set the tone for the early part of the ride, with the mud and fir needles triggering flat tyres, blocked brakes and generally causing havoc. Teams leapfrogged each other on the road, with a competitive tone underlying what isn't supposed to be a race.
At the first checkpoint, 40kms in, the mud-splattered riders were treated to some hot espresso and biscuits – a welcome relief. Some teams never even made it this far, though: riding on hidden bush trails under a thick canopy in pouring rain had caused more than one GPS-reliant group to go astray. Navigating on fresh tire tracks proved to be a much more reliable course-plotting tool.
As the day progressed the weather cleared and Perlenbach nature reserve treated everyone to its majestic beauty, although another off-road section soon meant that concentration was focused on the path ahead rather than the views.
The route had led riders through the border region of Holland, Belgium and Germany, the scene of ferocious fighting during the Great Wars. Concrete anti-tank obstacles are still positioned along the roadsides and the teams also passed the Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery and Memorial, which still serve as silent witnesses to those dark times.
Perhaps the historic setting of the course contributed to the camaraderie displayed throughout the day. Spare parts and supplies were shared and no one was left behind. Towards the end a small peloton even formed, which rolled up the final climb of the Vijlenerberg to finish together.
After a hard day of riding with friends and making new ones, the Rapha Prestige Limburg ended in high spirits, with beers and stories being shared in the afternoon sun.
Rapha offered prizes for the best and best-told #MYHOUR stories, and below are the entries that impressed us the most. From photos and postcards, to videos and blogs, riders documented their hour-long efforts in some incredibly creative ways. We'd like to say thank you to all those that entered.
First Prize
Jennie and John Baston took on their #MYHOUR challenge on a tandem in Yorkshire, England, telling the story of their ride with photos and a friendly postcard – complete with a beautiful illustration – addressed to Sir Brad. Their creative entry wins them a meeting with the man himself and the WIGGINS team. They also managed an impressive distance of 30.5km.
Second Prize
Runner-up – and the winner of a signed WIGGINS Team jersey – is Matt Richardson, who rode an hour on a Raleigh Chopper bike at the Palmer Park Stadium velodrome in Reading, England. Raising money for the Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research charity, Matt pedalled his chopper 31.87km on 23rd May. He also looked the part, wearing 1970s-inspired kit during his effort – Sir Brad would surely approve.
Honourable Mentions
From static bike sufferfests, to full Team WIGGINS kit efforts, your #MYHOUR efforts were a pleasure to see. Everyone in the collage above will receive a Team WIGGINS cap as reward for their inspiring entries. We hope that having done your own hour challenge you can appreciate the undertaking that is 'the hour,' and will doff your cap to Sir Bradley Wiggins, the new record holder.
Greg LeMond has a fascinating trajectory into the world of professional bike racing. The first (and arguably only) American to win the Tour de France, he was 'headhunted' by Bernard Hinault and Cyrille Guimard for Renault and allegedly became the first million dollar rider when he subsequently signed for La Vie Claire in 1984. La Vie Claire certainly represented the evolution of the sport, signing North American riders to help market the brand and being the first team to use clipless pedals.
Alongside these changes, motorsport continued to influence the cycling eyewear market. German brand Carrera pioneered the use of 'photochromic' plastics in lenses and took engineering techniques into the fashion market. But it was fledgling Californian company Oakley, starting out in the world of motor cross and BMX in 1975 that, in the 1980s, dramatically redefined cycle sport eyewear.
Crucially it was LeMond who bought a pair of Eyeshades in '84 and then almost immediately phoned Oakley's Jim Jannard to see if he could acquire a few more pairs for a 'trip to France'. Soon these technical plastic shades were the hottest commodity in the European peloton.]]>
Twenty-four years after Stephen turned professional, his son, Nicolas, lined up on the start line of the Tour de Vendée as a pro. Now racing for Team Sky, the younger Roche has forged a career of strong Grand Tour performances, stage wins, and selfless teamwork.
Both Stephen and Nicolas took the time to speak about the parallels and differences in their careers, the importance of passing exams, and sharing a profession.
When you travelled over to France to try and make it as a professional cyclist in February 1980 what advice did your parents give you?
They said that I should get something under my belt before I went off. Make sure you get your exams. Make sure you have an option for coming home. I had to qualify as a maintenance fitter in 1979 and once I had my qualifications behind me, I could go to France and if it didn't work out I could come home and just pick up my tools. So that was their main worry, that I shouldn't chuck in my job or my studies and go to France with a big dream to become a professional, and then have it all go bang, you know?
Was this advice similar to what you told Nicolas when he went out to race?
It was a bit different, because we were living in France as a family, so we were closer to it all. My advice to him was, if he played basketball or football, people will say, Nico is a fabulous basketball player', or 'Nico is a great footballer, an exceptional athlete'. But if he's cycling, everyone is going to compare him to his old man. 'Did he have the same pedal stroke?' 'Is he as good in the mountains?' 'Is he a better sprinter than his Dad?'… There were always going to be comparisons down this route, so he had to understand that it wouldn't be easy. The thing is to learn and to keep going forward, and to have fun. He's got a good head on his shoulders.
Reading interviews with you, one name keeps popping up, Claude Escalon. You describe him as a friend and a mentor. Could you tell me about him?
When I first came to France as an amateur, I met Claude. He was the Directeur Sportif at the ACBB [Athletic Club de Boulogne-Billancourt]. He was a very passionate man, great at tactics, and warm, always protecting his own lads. We became friends. Right through my career – including when I was a professional – he was always there to give me a hand and to talk to me.
For Nico's career, Claude was even more important. If I ever tried to tell Nico something in the early days, well, it's very difficult for a boy to listen to his old man. Nicolas had a lot of respect for Claude, so I'd say to Claude, "Could you tell 'XYZ' to Nicolas?" Then Claude would go along to Nicolas and talk to him and tell him what I said. It always worked.
How do you keep in touch with Nicolas – do you talk about racing, or do you try to let him get on with what he is doing?
I let him get on. We call and text, I wish him all the best, no pressure. I know that if he has a problem, he'll call me. If I go to watch him, I'll only try to see him for a quick cup of coffee, then I'll disappear. I don't like hanging around because it's his time of glory, and I don't feel like I have to be a part of it. I've had my time, and now it's his.
You know when he got the jersey in La Vuelta two years ago? He spoke to me the night before, and I said, 'Nicolas, if you finish in the top ten, it'll be déjà vu, we know you're capable of that. But, here you are, a couple of seconds away from wearing the leader's jersey in a Grand Tour. This doesn't come round every day in a guy's career. There's a climb up to the finish tomorrow – if you make just one effort, just one, full effort in the final km, you can take the jersey. It doesn't matter if you win the stage or not, but you can wear the red jersey in Spain.'
So, the next day, he did it, and he got the jersey. He called me after, and he said, "Dad, thank you for making me believe I could do it." That was nice, you know.
I asked your Dad about your early years of racing, and he told me about how he and his friend Claude Escalon would trick you into following your Dad's advice. Did you ever catch on?
My Dad and I were talking about this recently. I ended up learning a lot of useful things this way. I remember one time Claude told me to keep a scrapbook and put as much information in it as possible – like what form I felt I had, how much I weighed, or what gearing I used on a particular climb or race. The idea was that, over time, I'd have this huge amount of information to reference, and I could see what I was doing well and how to avoid making the same mistakes each season.
I remember telling my Dad about how Claude had told me to keep a scrapbook, and he raised an eyebrow and just said, "Oh, I used to do that," and didn't mention it again. It was only years later that I realised most of the stuff Claude told me were filtered bits of advice from my Dad.
And was racing something you did for fun, or had you decided it's what you wanted to do with your life?
I'm the sort of person who will do most things 'seriously', but I knew that I had to finish my studies before I made any decisions about racing for a career. Racing isn't like football, where you can be thrust into the professional ranks while in your late teens – and that's just because of the way that cycling works, and how you've got to have a good head on your shoulders before you can achieve anything.
I made the decision to try racing professionally when I was 19. Going to a hotel management school was on the cards, but I knew I wouldn't be able to put in the time that school required. So my Dad and I made a deal – he'd give me a few years to try to be professional and race fulltime, and if I didn't make it I would go back to the school. Oh, and I had to work a few shifts in a hotel while racing as an amateur.
How often do you talk to your Dad?
We have a strong relationship, so we call each other often just to catch up. If I'm in town, we'll go for a ride once a week or so, and that's always a good time to chat. We'll talk about anything in a three or four hour ride, from diet and training to teammates to how wedding plans are going.
I spoke to your Dad about your taking of the leader's jersey at La Vuelta, and his advice and reactions. How do you remember it?
It's a complicated feeling, because winning the jersey was amazing, but you wake up the next morning and you know you need to prove yourself all over again. It's not taken for granted, you don't get any reprieve. The next day I lost it by a second to Daniel Moreno – and that's just how it goes.
Do you remember seeing much of your Dad race?
Not too much. I do have a few memories of the last few years, because we went to see him in the post-Tour criteriums. There was less travel in those days, and families weren't encouraged to go along with the racers as much, although it's far more common now. I think that, were I to have kids in the near future, they might be able to come and spend time with me on rest days and so on – which wasn't quite the case in the days of my Dad's career.
The clearest memory I have is of him crashing in San Sebastian. My Mum took us to the town a few days early, and we played on the beaches and waited for Dad to be finished with the race. We had no way of knowing, but in the race he had attacked the peloton over the crest of a small climb, and went tearing into a corner. His brakes gave out, and he crashed into a pole.
I remember that we were waiting at the finish, but he never arrived. Someone told us that he been rushed to the hospital, so later we were sitting in the lobby of the hotel, waiting for the team to bring him back, and when they did he showed me the 25 stitches in his scalp. When he walked into the lobby he looked like a mummy, with the big white bandages around his head.
Do you find that other people are more eager to talk about your career in terms of your Dad's?
I think it's something the press did years ago, when I was first starting out, but I've got 11 years as a professional now and it's much less common to be compared to him. I've never had any ego issues over someone introducing me as the son of Stephen Roche. He has all the respect of the cycling world – he was World Champion, Tour de France winner and so on. And I know that a lot of people respect the work that I do too.
Thank you to Siu-Anne Marie Gill at 11th Hour Global Management – Representing Stephen Roche.]]>
– Celia Fiennes on the Peak District, while travelling on horseback in 1697. Taken from 'Through England on a Side Saddle in the Time of William and Mary.'
When Celia Fiennes passed through here in the late 1600s, this region will have seemed almost impenetrable. Unmade roads didn't reach far into the Peaks, and the rolling hills' only interruption would have been the natural gritstone escarpments that dot the landscape.
Industry has since carved its way through the land, taming the valleys with both tarmac and rail lines, which in some cases, cut straight through the once-impassable Peaks. The rolling hills that greeted Celia still remain however, and as riders on the Rapha Prestige Peak District discovered, continue to pose a challenge for those that seek them out.

Eddy Merckx's insatiable appetite for winning – and doing so emphatically at the detriment of almost every rival – fittingly earned him the name 'The Cannibal'. But his playboy good looks and mostly serene visage, ensured his image also helped him make his name. Merckx would rarely race in shades but certainly wore sunglasses during the times between rides. In some pictures he can be seen sporting Gucci eyewear with frames made from metal and acetate. There is a truly iconic photo of Merckx and Jan Janssen, a man very well noted for wearing spectacles, sharing a joke by swapping glasses.
One of the most enduring styles that 'Big Ted' certainly sported was the 'aviator', an American design made by Bausch + Lomb, more commonly known today by the brand name Ray-Ban. This aviator style – an ancestor of flight goggles – offered the first 'wrap-around' protection, and was picked up by riders like Fausto Coppi, Louison Bobet and later Merckx and even Bernard Hinault. Another timeless style has been the 'wayfarer' (as worn by Janssen mentioned above). A shape still imitated today by countless brands, and in myriad colours and materials, the wayfarer is hard to beat for a cool façade.]]>
"Here it's not possible to ease up, to change gears or the rhythm. The hour record demands a total effort, permanent and intense, one that's not possible to compare to any other. I will never try it again."
—Eddy Merckx
Elsewhere, there was a full house and debates over air pressure. But here, the only air pressure that mattered was that in the tires. Eric Sheagly flatted in his attempt on the track hour record at Portland's Alpenrose Velodrome, 40 minutes in. He was a few seconds off the elite record at that point and may have beaten it, if not for the charms of the outdoor concrete track.
One can only do so much.
Junior Peter Newlands enjoyed a different fate, riding a track-best of 38.442km. Towards the end of the hour spectators fanned out along the edges of velodrome, spaced every 15 metres or so. They stood there in order to spot where Newlands was on the track at exactly one hour, but what they amounted to was an unending cheering section for the young rider.
When it was finished, he lay on his back in the shaded infield grass, taking time before he tried to do anything other than recover. Twenty minutes later he went back to being a normal kid, checking his phone, blending back into his teammates, as if the longest hour had hardly happened at all.

Comments about Spectrum Essentials Vegetarian DHA, Softgels, 90 ea:
I was looking for a DHA supplement to take during pregnancy, but I wanted something completely vegetarian. Some other brands offer algae-based DHA (rather than fish-based), but all the others I looked at were still packaged in gelatin capsules, which aren't vegetarian. Really happy to have found this! No aftertaste; these are totally painless to take.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great for vegans

See all my reviews
Research shows DHA helps prevent heart disease and Alzheimers. The problem is the most common source of it is fish oil. But you know where the fish get it from? Eating algae. So this supplement skips the middleman (middlefish?) and uses algae as the source. As a vegan, I love that.
Store in a cool, dry place. Suggested serving: 1-2 softgels daily with food. Consult a healthcare practitioner for your individual needs.

To create a camp with a focus on creative males and work together in a collective with the goal to have a cohesive community for the length of the Burning Man experience in 2011. To come together and create in camp by working on a communal project through the week. To offer workshops to the community at-large as an open invitation.
Looking for guys to lead yoga classes through the week. I would like to have different people maybe a class or two through the week and be able to break the class into couples sections and perform yoga in pairs, too.
Looking for leads in drawing workshops and we can work on scheduling and class description. Of course will be seeking models who can hold poses for up to 15 to 20 minutes at a time.
For those who want to camp with us and willing to teach classes I will make some consolation on the camp fee.
Anyone camping with us and can bring resources needed will be credited for what you can bring.
As the focus is set to males in order to create a fraternal cohesion while not focusing on a sexual proclivities. This is why there is no requirement for sexual identification to be a member of the collective.

Original Message
The few weeks leading up to my Death.
I was a mess by the time I met my new doctor, the last 16 years of being a high priority targeted individual has ruined my health. I was on nearly twenty medicines two types of powerful narcotic pain medicine. I hurt all the time, but one thing that kept me going was a perscription for cannibis that the Lord had asked me to take for stroke relief. I had suffered three strokes, had congestive heart failure, Diabetes, High blood pressure, apnea, and a host of neuralogical disorders, made taking cannibis nearly a requirement for me, however it was not legal in the state I live in so I always had to go underground to get my medicine.
My new doctor learned of my targeted individual status and had asked me to bring my mother in for a session to verify the facts of my demise, so we went to the doctors on December the tenth of 2012. When I got there I had left my wallet in the cab and they stole it. I was in a near panicked state of mind but as I made my way to the doctors office I was met by the nurse being syrupy sweet told me that I had to go and get a test for the doctor. I assumed it was going to be a blood test but to my surprise it was going to be a drug screen test. A drug screen test to bring out his new drug policy for any narcotic perscriptions in the future. It specifically mentioned no marijuana use or you do not get your perscription.
It all felt like one big set-up which it was, specifically directed to keeping me off of cannibis, which it didn't make sense, until I found that it was a Satanic inspired "street theater" they all love to play on unsuspecting Christians. For some reason they did not want me to have any cannibis, they would except no excuse. If I did not comply, they would deny my medicines for pain.
The more I thought about it, the more it began to stink of an enemy plot, but why??? I did not know what was about to happen in the near future, but for some reason they did, and was trying to prevent an event that would change the entire dynamic of my warfare with them.

This post is part of a blog circle so be sure to scroll all the way down to the bottom to see the whole thing!
When I attended my Pinkle Toes Workshop last summer I left with the sense that I'd learned a lot, of course, but that I'd also found my people – the people I'd been seeking my whole adult life who were like me. I felt like we instantly connected and I'd finally found the place where I belonged. So when this year's Pinkle Toes Reunion was planned I took a deep breath and made a huge leap. I flew standby across to the country to a place I've never been to take a trip with people I've never met.
And it was so worth it.
I was in Charleston, SC for three days. We packed those three days to the gills with activities. We did lots of beach, a carriage tour of the city, a culinary tour, ate at lots of amazing (AMAZING) restaurants, saw a plantation, stopped often to take too many pictures – and generally walked our feet off.
Our food tour: you can see our guide in the mirror behind Michele.
But the thing that stands out for me, that we did the most was laugh. I haven't laughed so hard since I was a little girl, alone with my sister. We laughed so hard and so long I thought I was going to pee my pants (TMI? No? Good). I laughed so hard I cried. It was so. cathartic. I cannot tell you how healing it is, how wonderful it is to find a tribe of women with whom I connect and just laugh. It helps that these girls are seriously funny.
Photographically and inspirationally there were two highlights of the trip for me. The first day we were there we met a gorgeous pregnant mama on the beach with her family. Michele and Becky asked her if she'd be willing to come back for a maternity shoot at sunset (!!!!) and she came (!!!) and it was amazing! Gorgeous mama, gorgeous light….and just a lot of fun do be doing my favorite thing on earth (photography, just in case there was some misunderstanding there) with a bunch of other people who love the same thing.
See what I mean!?
These pull pack shots that show all of us photographing her are my favorite!
We're like the paparazzi! Thank goodness Mama rolled with our craziness with grace!
The next highlight was getting up with the birds to drive to Folly Beach and watch the sun rise. Getting up before dawn is one of those things I always mean to do but never actually make it around to actually doing. Reminder to self: it's worth it. Always.
There were dolphins swimming in front of us while the sun rose. Magic. I'm telling you. Pure. Magic.
This morning reminded me of the Cheryl Strayed quote now in the movie "Wild" – "there is a sunrise and a sunset every day and you can choose to be there for it – you can choose to put yourself in the way of beauty."
I'm glad I chose to be there for sunrise. But before that I'm glad I chose to get to Charleston so I could meet these people and be there for that sunrise!
I took a trip to a gorgeous locale with a group of truly world-class photographers. We've created a blog circle to share our pictures and experiences. It's going to be awesome so get going to Katie Bork, Katie Bork Photography: Wilmington & Wrightsville Beach Family Photographer to see what she shared.

World Business Briefing | Europe: China: Bid For Hungarian Airline
Published: August 10, 2004
The Hainan Airlines Company, whose biggest shareholder is the financier George Soros, left, plans to bid for Malev, Hungary's unprofitable airline, to expand overseas. ''We are in preliminary talks with Malev about taking a stake in the company,'' said Song Chenliang, a Hainan Airlines spokesman, who declined to provide details. Hungary plans to seek bids for Malev next week in a fourth attempt to sell the carrier. Hainan is adding overseas routes to compete with larger competitors like Air China and China Southern Airlines. Hungary, a new member of the European Union, is selling assets to reduce its budget deficit and debt and qualify for the euro currency by 2010.

Police facing questions in 3 women's Ohio rescue
The head of the FBI in Cleveland, Stephen Anthony, said the families' prayers for the missing women had been answered.
"The nightmare is over," he said. "These three young ladies have provided us with the ultimate definition of survival and perseverance. The healing can now begin."
He added: "Words can't describe the emotions being felt by all. Yes, law enforcement professionals do cry."
Police would not say how the women were taken captive or how they were hidden in the neighborhood where they had vanished. Investigators also would not say whether they were kept in restraints inside the house or sexually assaulted.
Four years ago, in another poverty-stricken part of town, police were heavily criticized following the discovery of 11 women's bodies in the home and backyard of Anthony Sowell, who was later convicted of murder and sentenced to death.
The families of Sowell's victims accused police of failing to properly investigate the disappearances because most of the women were addicted to drugs and poor. For months, the stench of death hung over the house, but it was blamed on a sausage factory next door.
In the wake of public outrage over the killings, a panel formed by the mayor recommended an overhaul of the city's handling of missing-person and sex crime investigations.
This time, two neighbors said they called police to the Castro house on separate occasions.
Elsie Cintron, who lives three houses away, said her daughter saw a naked woman crawling in the backyard several years ago and called police. "But they didn't take it seriously," she said.
Another neighbor, Israel Lugo, said he heard pounding on some of the doors of the house in November 2011. Lugo said officers knocked on the front door, but no one answered. "They walked to side of the house and then left," he said.
"Everyone in the neighborhood did what they had to do," said Lupe Collins, who is close to relatives of the women. "The police didn't do their job."
Police did go to the house twice in the past 15 years, but not in connection with the women's disappearance, officials said.
In 2000, before the women vanished, Castro reported a fight in the street, but no arrests were made, Flask said.
In 2004, officers went to the home after child welfare officials alerted them that Castro had apparently left a child unattended on a bus, Flask said. No one answered the door, according to Flask. Ultimately, police determined there was no criminal intent on his part, he said.
Castro was arrested two days after Christmas in 1993 on a domestic-violence charge and spent three days in jail before he was released on bond. The case was presented to a grand jury, but no indictment was returned, according to court documents, which don't detail the allegations. It's unclear who brought the charge against Castro, who was living at the home from which the women escaped Monday.
Castro, 52, was well known in the mainly Puerto Rican neighborhood. He played bass guitar in salsa and merengue bands. He gave children rides on his motorcycle and joined others at a candlelight vigil to remember two of the missing girls, neighbors said. They also said they would sometimes see him walking a little girl to a neighborhood playground.

This is exactly the same recipe given to me by my mother-in-law, only without the addition of the cheese. For a variation, I highly recommend shaping the loaf "free form" on a foil-lined broile...
My kids love cheese inside their meatloaf, so I've used several types. Mozarella in the center with marinara sauce covering the top of the loaf is a nice italian version. Pepper jack and enchila...
I have made this recipe alot!! My family loves it, I would never make a different meatloaf after having found this recipe, I share this recipe with friends and family alot.

Recipe: The Most Lemony of Lemon Muffins
Breakfast Recipes from The Kitchn
Late one summer, when I was about 12 years old, my mother packed us all up in the van and took us to a small local fair. At this point there were six of us kids (or was it seven?) and any excuse to get out of the house was a good one.
But my mom had a mission — she wasn't just going to drag us out to a county fair. She was entering a baking contest. She wrapped up a couple loaves of intensely lemony quick bread, drizzled with lemon syrup and sprinkled generously with zest. And we marched off to that fair, lemon's aroma wafting into the back of our very long stretch van.
Recipe: Zucchini and Asparagus Strata
Breakfast Recipes from The Kitchn
I'm ready to hit the Chicago farmers markets this week and stock up on all the super-fresh local produce I've been craving since last fall. I'll most likely bring home as much as I can carry, and then I'll be faced with the happy task of finding ways to prepare and eat it.
This is one recipe I know we'll be turning to, especially because it can be so easily adapted to use whatever ingredients look best.
Use This Ratio to Make Perfect Quiche Every Time
Cooking Without Recipes
Quiche is one of those perfect dishes that's great morning, noon, or night. At its core, the ingredients are simple — pie crust, eggs, milk or cream, and your favorite fillings. The key to getting your quiche just right is the custard.
The smooth baked mixture at the heart of any quiche requires just the right ratio of eggs and milk or cream. Here's a template for the essential base mixture for quiche. Once you have this memorized you won't even need to look up a recipe.
How To Make English Muffins
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
There is really no better vehicle for melted butter than the craggy dips and toasted peaks of an English muffin. I think we can all agree on this. Have you ever tried making them yourself? They're surprisingly straightforward! And since the dough is best when made ahead and refrigerated overnight, they've become one of my favorite treats to make over long, lazy weekends.
Here's a step-by-step recipe for making a batch of English muffins for you and anyone lucky enough to be invited to your table.

These Blackberry & Coconut Scones Make Me Excited for Berry Season
Delicious Links
Is it blackberry season right now in New York? No, definitely not. The cold weather mixed with the sad, gray skies don't scream fresh fruit. But, we're close, you guys! These gorgeous coconut scones are the first thing I want to make when the time is right.
Recipe: Breakfast Polenta Squares with Spinach & Bacon
Breakfast Recipes from The Kitchn
I've written a lot of recipes for egg casseroles. Between my recipes here and in my casserole cookbook, I've beaten and baked eggs into dozens of permutations. There's good reason for this; egg casseroles are one of the easiest ways for me to make a week of breakfast in one big batch. But honestly, I've been getting a little tired of my egg routine. I needed something new, a fresh make-ahead breakfast with all the convenience of oven omelets.
Meet the polenta breakfast bake — a no-stir, practically hands-off way to make a hearty breakfast that will last you all week.
Recipe: Savory Carrot & Zucchini Pancakes
Recipes from the Kitchn

From breakfast tacos with scrambled eggs, to a roasted radish omelet, to a make-ahead egg casserole with sausage and chilies, eggs will always be there for you. All you need to do is roll out of bed and decide on a recipe to make first.

Still GLOCK
"If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. That's ridiculous. If I have a gun, what in the hell do I have to be paranoid about?"
-Clint Smith
I carry a gun because I can't carry a cop!!!
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away!!!!
I always carry a pistol legally for self defense! In my 23 years of carry, I've only had to point it at a man once and he backed off! This happened just last year!
Amen Mr. Smashy
well wouldn't that be nice with us... here in Germany you aren't allowed to carry even a knife for self defense... well because the bad guys stick to these rules too...
I carry a gun legally because I want to see my daughter grow up and to protect my investment. My Family. Period.
Awesome shot. Nice quote too.
I never leave home without it. I've never had to use or draw it, but it is comforting to know it is there just in case. You only have to be in the wrong place at the wrong time ONCE, for your life to be over prematurely. I want to be able to defend my life should that ever happen.
I work at a store that 85% of the customers are law enforcement, and we still have our share of shoplifting. Even if you could "carry a cop" crime is still gonna happen.
I take care of myself so the heros can take care of those who can't.
Incredible picture. Nicely done. What kind of barrel are we looking at?
Thank you. It's an EFK Fire Dragon stainless steel national match barrel in .40 S&W in a G35.
If that is your carry gun - what kind of holster have you found that will take a light? I found a Fobus but am less than happy with it. I am having trouble finding a concealment holster for a Glock 22 with light. Any help appreciated!!
Thanks!! Will check out the 5188....
Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Guns & Gear, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
Great quote!

During the '60s, this pub-crawling crew became larger than life. Burton and his wife Elizabeth Taylor downed three to four bottles a day, each. Harris drank two bottles of vodka a day while he read in the papers what he'd done the night before. Reed became infamous for drinking "gunk," an ice bucket with every drink in the bar poured into it. O'Toole fought everyone from paparazzi to cops.

Antonio Brown Wildcard game vs. Ravens
The NFL leader in receptions and receiving yards, Antonio Brown finished his regular season off with a bang last week against Cincinnati, catching seven passes for 128 yards and a score. He had 11 receptions for 144 yards and a score in the last meeting with Baltimore at Heinz Field, getting two cornerbacks fired by the Ravens after that game. Baltimore will surely try to double Brown, but so has practically every other team this season. Yet he still finished with 129 receptions, the second-best total in NFL history. He's a strong start regardless of circumstance or weather because he can beat teams in so many ways.

This is an out-and-back on the canal, so your mileage is entirely up to you.
Please be advised that we try to start right at the above time in order to beat the heat. If you need to stretch before you run, then you may want to arrive with ample time to do so before the start of the run.
For those of you using the Hal Higdon training charts to train for PF Chang's full Marathon, this is week 14 of 18. For those of you using the Hal Higdon training charts to train for PF Chang's half Marathon, this is week 8 of 12. (halhigdon.com)
We just grab a coffee and speak French. Some people have been coming every week for months... it creates a kind of warmth to the group.
