NEW ORLEANS -- Several evenings a week, Reverend Jamaal Weathersby can be found walking the streets of Central City. He greets everyone he meets with a smile and a handshake.
"How you doing? God bless you," he said to a group of young men hanging out near Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd and Magnolia St on a recent Wednesday.
If he seems at home, it's because he's been coming here for years.
"It just seems like, I'm at home and I feel like this is what was meant to be from the beginning," Weathersby said.
He's a life-long member at New Hope Baptist Church. He took over as pastor here three and a half years ago.
"My grandmother was one of the original 9 members of this church. I've been in this church my entire life," he explained. "when I was about 17 years old, I felt the calling on my life."
That calling leads him and dozens of other church members to hit the streets as part of the church's outreach program. This past Wednesday, the group of about 30 people set up a loud speaker on the neutral ground.
It's part church service, part social work.
"We never know what we're going to meet when we go into the community so we're just prepared to do whatever it takes," Weathersby said.
But why go out and meet with people one on one? On a typical Sunday, Weathersby can reach more than 350 people during a church service. He said it's not necessarily to find new church members, but rather the needs of the community are much more immediate than that.
People he meets are looking for help with the daily necessities of jobs and food. People like Hershel Smith.
"Welding, you know, different janatorial jobs. Maintenance, you know, broad opportunities," Smith said when asked what type of work he's looking for.
"Whether it's substance abuse, whether it's literacy, sometimes we encounter someone who needs a light bill paid, or something. It's all kinds of things," Weathersby said of the needs he encounters.
Violence is also such a part of everyday life. In the four square miles surrounding the church, 16 people have been shot and three of them died so far this year. When violence comes up, Smith just shrugs his shoulders.
"I think it's a concern for everyone, when there's violence, but what can I say?" he asked.
It's a chief concern for Claresha Stanback. She is a mother of three. Her youngest, Marcus is just two years old.
"You're scared for your kids to come outside. Every day you hear gun shots," she explained with frustration in her voice.
Weathersby has seen the impact up close. Kareem Dowell-- who's family was profiled by eyewitness news last month-- survived several different shootings. One put him in a wheelchair. New Hope's outreach was helping to change his life.
"He actually sat with the deacons from time to time," Weathersby remembers with a smile. "He wanted to wear a tie, all kinds of stuff."
The pull of the streets was too strong. Someone shot Dowell to death just before Christmas last year. Pastor Weathersby also led a vigil for Monique Smith and her two young sons. All three were killed in Gentilly earlier this month.
"It's sad. It can take the life out of you, if you allow it," he said.
But he's determined not to let it. With his bible and a sign in hand, he's letting people know he and his church members care.
Outreach coordinator Charles D. Smith believes they're making change, even if it is one person at a time.
"We are actually looking to affect the hearts of the people, and because we believe if the heart changes, then the mind changes," Smith said.
Whether the changes people need to make are spiritual or physical, Pastor Weathersby will keep preaching his message of change.
"We're going to keep on doing our part," he said. "We're going to keep on playing a role that God gave to us to help meet the needs of the community."
New Hope Baptist Church is also planning on building a community center in the neighborhood. It will have a literacy center and a gym to help people with their education and physical fitness.

Campbell, Debi
Debi Campbell -- #01919-112
20 years, Drug Conspiracy
August 5, 2003
My name is Debi Campbell, and I am currently incarcerated at the Federal Prison Camp in Victorville, California. I am now serving my 10th year of a 19 year 7 month sentence.
I have corresponded with your organization several times over the years, and I also receive your quarterly newspaper. Today though, I am writing to ask for the November Coalition's support of my request for Presidential Clemency. I am also writing newspaper publications, such as yours, in order to obtain media and advertisement support of my website
. The website gives a brief history of my life, as well as my crime, and a petition readers may download and mail to support my commutation of sentence.
Sentenced during the decade of harsh mandatory minimums and federal sentencing guidelines, I received a longer term of imprisonment than someone convicted of the same crime today. I need your help.
Today, I am near completion of two college degrees and will continue towards a BA in Political Science. My children are now young adults, my father and aunt are quite elderly. The person I was before coming to prison has changed dramatically, and the mistakes I made in the past will not re-occur. It's time for me to step back into life and be a productive member of society once again.
Please support me in this life altering request, by assisting me in my efforts to have as many people as possible visit my website, and support my cause. It will be the only way I might be able to leave here before my release date of 2010. Once again, all the information may be found on
If you should have any questions, or need any additional information, please contact me at my website.
Sincerely, Debi
March 16, 1999
First of all, I want to thank The November Coalition for all your work and effort to end our "War on Drugs." Thanks to you, FAMM, Human Rights and the Drug War and others that are fighting to end this failing war, people like myself have hope that it will end.
Tomorrow is my 44th birthday and the sixth birthday I've spent away from my family. I'm serving a 20-year sentence in a federal prison camp in Phoenix, Arizona for my so-called involvement in a drug conspiracy. Like so many others, there was no evidence other than the self-serving testimony of a government informant who was never even indicted for her own involvement. When is this going to stop? Something has to be done so this practice no longer can be used.
In my case though, I was able, with the help of a private investigator, to locate the informant. She has agreed to come forward and recant her testimony. All she has to do is tell the truth and hopefully I will be returning to court before the end of this year! All this has been achieved with the help of Joseph Nash, Southeast Legal Foundation, Abe Factor, Attorney at Law and, Danny LaRue of LaRue Investigations in Fort Worth, Texas. I couldn't have done this without them!!
I'm including a photo of my two youngest daughters and myself. At the time of this picture, I hadn't seen them in almost three years. Now I have hope of being with them in the near future and not in 2010! Once again, thanks for all you have done, and all you are continuing to do. My plans after my release will be to join in this fight.

As expected, the US-market Nissan Sentra has received a midlife facelift. The C-segment sedan is known as the Pulsar in Australia and Sylphy to us in Malaysia. The 2016 Sentra sports a revised exterior and the addition of available safety and driving aid tech.
The biggest change is up front, where the Sentra gets Nissan's V-motion face to better fit in with the rest of the family. Still looking conservative next to the bold new Maxima and refreshed Altima (Teana to us), but it's significantly more dynamic than before and an improvement.
Highlights include new front and rear fascias, grille fenders, hood and signature boomerang-shaped headlights and tail lights and a new 17-inch aluminium-alloy wheel design. SR and SL grades add new LED low-beam headlights with LED signature accents. A new hue – Blue Pearl – makes it 10 colour options for the 2016 Sentra.
Inside, the main event is a new steering wheel with a boss that's much smaller than before. It looks similar to the one in the 370Z sports car, but with a Nissan badge of course. There's also a new available power driver's seat with power lumbar, new centre cluster and audio display design, new console and shift knob and refined seat fabrics. The instrument panel offers a new TFT-type LCD flat panel display with higher resolution.
Sentra SV, SR and SL grades include a 5.0-inch Advanced Drive-Assist Display (ADAD) located between the two dials. These grades also include Siri Eyes Free Voice Recognition as standard. A number of Nissan's Safety Shield Technologies are now available on the Sentra for the first time – Forward Emergency Braking, Intelligent Cruise Control, Blind Spot Warning and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
Also now available is NissanConnectSM Services powered by SiriusXM. It offers emergency preparedness, remote access, customisable alerts (speed, curfew and boundary notifications, for instance) and convenience services. Other available kit range from dual-zone air con, eight-speaker Bose audio, rear view monitor and keyless entry-push start.
The 1.8 litre MRA8DE engine with 130 hp and 174 Nm soldiers on along with Nissan's Xtronic CVT, but the latter gets a new D-Step Logic Control for a "more stable, natural and crisper shift feel". The Sentra's suspension has been retuned with a 10% increase in spring and damper rates, as well as enhanced body stiffness for improved roll and body control. New EPS mapping and tyres improve steering feel and response.
Will we get the 2016 Sentra's updates for our Sylphy facelift, or is this another sporty face that will remain in North America? Like what you see?

Jumbo proclaimed safest store in the Netherlands thanks to face matching
The Dutch supermarket chain Jumbo strives to provide an enjoyable and safe shopping experience for both, customers as well as their own employees. The shop has 80 high-quality cameras with facial recognition installed in their premises. If a customer is caught or arrested for shoplifting, they ensure that the image of that person remains in the database.
The moment that customer attempts to re enter the store, an internal alarm is triggered, and the security manager can take the best suitable action. In general, investing in security systems and a safe environment helped Jumbo to provide comfort and confidence to both, their customers as well as their employees.
Jumbo Ten Brink Food introduced the face server into their store environment in March 2017 after discovering that almost 80% of shoplifting took place via large shopping bags. Since then, Jumbo has installed 80 Panasonic cameras in-store, helping them to win the award.
Previously recognised by the National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST) as the most accurate on the market, Panasonic's face server uses deep learning technology which maximises the performance of the core engine to achieve accurate and reliable recognition. The technology identifies faces that are ordinarily difficult to recognise with conventional techniques, such as those taken from an angle of up to 45 degrees to the left or right or 30 degrees up or down. It also maintains a 90% accuracy rate when detecting faces that are partially hidden by sunglasses or face masks.
If people are caught stealing, their image remains on the database. The face server provides a real-time processing capacity of up to 20 cameras per server and can execute high-speed searches of up to 30,000 registered reference faces. With this improved accuracy, security protection is enhanced and the system allows matches even when images are 10 years old.
"The moment that a known shoplifter attempts to re-enter the store, an internal alarm is triggered, and we can take the best suitable action," explains Edwin ten Brink, founder of Jumbo Ten Brink Food stores. "Thanks to the Panasonic face matching server, Jumbo has been proclaimed the safest store in the Netherlands."

CdS thin films with (1 1 1) orientation were prepared by chemical bath deposition technique at 80±5 °C using the reaction between NH4OH, CdCl2 and CS(NH2)2. The influence of annealing temperature varying from 150 °C to 250 °C was studied. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the films are polycrystalline in nature with cubic structure. Various parameters, such as dislocation density, stress and strain, were also evaluated. SEM analysis indicated uniformly distributed nano-structured spherically shaped grains and net like morphology. Optical transmittance study showed the wide transmittance band and absence of absorption in the entire visible region. I-V characterization of p-Si/n-CdS diode and photoluminescence studies were also carried out for the CdS films.
A new thallium (I) coordination polymer [Tl(PsucH)]n (PsucH = phenylsuccinic acid) has been synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-Ray analysis, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. The single crystal X-Ray analysis shows that this polymer is 2-D along a axis. Flower-like nanostructure thallium (III) oxide, Tl2O3 has been prepared by direct thermal decomposition of thallium (I) coordination polymer. The nanostructure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-Ray powder diffraction (XRD) and IR spectroscopy. The thermal stability of the Tl2O3 nanostructure was studied by thermal gravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis (TGA /DTA) too.
The (V,Al) co-doped ZnO nano-structured powders (Zn0.9-xV0.1AlxO, where x = 0.02, 0.03 and 0.04) were synthesized via the sol-gel technique and their structural and optical properties were investigated. The effect of Al concentration on the structural and optical properties of the Zn0.9-xV0.1AlxO nanopowders was studied using various techniques. The XRD patterns indicate that the samples have a polycrystalline wurtzite structure. The crystallite size increases with increasing the Al content and lies in the range of 23 to 30 nm. The lattice strain, estimated by the Stokes-Wilson equation, decreases when Al content increases. SEM and TEM micrographs show that Zn0.9-xV0.1AlxO powders are the agglomeration of nanoparticles having spherical and hexagonal shapes with dimensions ranging from 20 to 30 nm. FT-IR spectra show a distinct absorption peak at about 500 cm-1 for ZnO stretching modes and other peaks related to OH and H2O bands. Raman spectra confirm the wurtzite structure of the Zn0.9-xV0.1AlxO nanoparticles. The direct band gaps of the synthesized Zn0.9-xV0.1AlxO nanopowders, estimated from the Brus equation and the crystallite sizes deduced from XRD, are around 3.308 eV. The decomposition process of the dried gel system was investigated by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).

Published the: 07/11/2017
(TAP) – "Tunisian-Maltese political and economic relations are about fifty years old and our objective for the next few years is to raise them to higher levels," said President of Malta Marie-Louise Caleira Preca.
Speaking on Tuesday at the opening of the Tunisian-Maltese business forum, Caleira Preca said that "Tunisia, which today represents a model of a democratic country, could constitute a destination of choice for investors and an economic example to follow in the region ".
She also stressed that the Tunisian-Maltese Economic Forum will not fail to open new business opportunities for businessmen, calling to take advantage of the potentialities that exist in both countries, in order to meet the aspirations of the two peoples.
"We are going to create a joint commission to materialise our determination to strengthen economic cooperation and to encourage the implementation of bilateral projects," she said.
During his speech, The President of the Government Youssef Chahed emphasised Tunisia's will to put the foundations of solid and lasting relations with Malta in order to open up new prospects. "Our top priority is to expand and diversify partnership between the two friendly countries," said Chahed.
He reminded that 13 Maltese companies are installed in Tunisia. These companies representing investments of 54 million dinars have created 1,500 jobs, he added.
Referring to the national economic situation, Chahed recalled that the National Union Government has established the guarantees, means and legislative framework that allowed Tunisia to reposition itself on the international map of investment, explaining this achievement by the success of the reforms adopted in the economic and social fields.
These reforms, specified Chahed, were based on a participatory approach, in accordance with the guidelines of the five-year plan (2016/2020).
The President of the Government also said that forecasts for 2018 expect a growth rate of around 3%, based on a good agricultural season, the resumption of phosphate production and the dynamics of the sector of tourism and the evolution of investment.
"The Improvement of investment indicators is a positive result of the incentives provided under the new investment law that offers the opportunity to invest for both Tunisian and foreign business leaders", said Chahed, adding that "Tunisia is counting on all its strategic partners, especially European and Maltese, to achieve the goals set."
President of the Tunisian Confederation of Industry, Trade and Handicrafts (UTICA) Wided Bouchamaoui called on Tunisian and Maltese business leaders to intensify visits, exchange economic information and explore business opportunities with a view to raising economic cooperation in the region on the level of bilateral political relations.
The volume of Tunisian exports to Malta reached, in 2017, nearly 112 million dinars (MD) and imports amounted to 124 MD. Trade between the two countries concerned agri-food products, ceramics, plastics, footwear and ready-to-wear.

What You Can Expect While Staying at Afiya:
* It's important to note that your experience at Afiya may vary depending on a number of factors including who else is staying at the house and how busy things are at that time. Overall, our philosophy is that not all support has to or should come from someone who is working at Afiya to someone staying at Afiya. Rather, we believe that support and healing connections can develop in many directions, including between two people staying at the house. However, how that actually plays out at any given moment depends in the house. Some people go to look for conversation and active exploration of ideas, while others may go primarily to get rest and quiet. Similarly, while it is fair to expect at least some 1:1 support time during each visit, the needs of everyone staying in the house together will shape what that looks like from day to day.

Qwertyuiop – The odds are that this was the copy of the first email ever, at least according to the recollections of Ray Tomlinson, the man who invented the electronic mail technology back in 1971.
Almost half a century later, email is very much alive and kicking despite being declared dead many times. Any proof? How about 86% of business professionals who say that email is their preferred work-related channel of communication? Or the fact that people who make their purchasing decisions based on email marketing spend 138% more than those who don't receive email offers.
Previous statements call for a disclaimer:
All this applies only if your pitch is carefully crafted and compelling. Otherwise, your messaging is doomed and headed for the spam folder placement.
Here are some of the most important psychological factors that should be considered when tailoring your outreach email.
Less Is More
We live in an age of information overload. A study by the University of California, San Diego found that in 2009 the human brain was exposed to 34GB of information on a daily basis. This amount has been increasing exponentially over the past decade, given that nowadays there are more social media networks and news outlets bombarding us with tons of images, videos, and other media 24/7.
The thing is that your recipients have reached the saturation point.
So, if you want to have their attention, cut to the chase and tell them exactly what you want, and do it in a concise and clear manner.
Beating around the bush won't get you far, and it's important to make your message actionable – suggest a meeting, ask them to read your blog post, invite them to try your product, or offer them to download your report.
This brings us to a CTA. Make sure to always include it in your emails, but stick to just one per email in order to avoid confusing your recipients regarding what action you want them to take.
The quality of being concise is even more critical in the B2B industry, where elaborate actually means verbose, and detailed stands for long-drawn-out. Remember that your prospects are busy and unless your message is brief, to the point, and easily digestible, they will hit the delete button before you could say P.S.
A word of caution – don't try to impress your recipients by using high-flown words. Assiduous is the same as hard-working. It only sounds more pretentious.
Draw the Line
Your email subject line should be all about making a great first impression. Again, brevity plays an important role both from a psychological and practical point of view.
Namely, by keeping it short and sweet, you show that you respect your recipients' time, and since at least 50% of all emails are opened on mobile devices, it's essential that your subject line displays correctly on every screen.
In other words, keep it under 50 characters.
Relevant and relatable questions which hit the right note with your target audience tend to perform much better than subject lines phrased as statements.
"Problems with lead generation? We get you."
"How to boost your low open rates?"
Also, spice it up with a hint of urgency because FOMO is a powerful psychological phenomenon which drives engagement (and conversions) like crazy.
"Order today and the shipping is on us!" Who could resist such an offer? But bear in mind that certain words such as "free" are spam triggers, so try to avoid them, particularly in your cold outreach (just like we did in our example.)
We all know that all caps are a big no-no; on the other hand, using all-lowercase subject lines can be an interesting hack since they add a more natural and informal feel, as that's how people write when emailing their friends and family.
No Pain, No Gain
"Hi Peter,
I checked out your new website and noticed that it's not properly optimized for SEO.
Wanna hear my ideas on how to fix this?"
Ouch! Pretty harsh, right?
Actually, this approach works like a charm. Psychologically speaking, pain works better when it comes to motivation because it motivates people to take action and keep negative things at bay.
Basically, the Peter guy from our imaginary example won't be happy to hear that his new website sucks when it comes to SEO, but this negative feedback will prompt him to do something about it and accept the offer from the email.
So, don't be afraid to focus on your recipients' problems and pain points in your outreach, but make sure to appropriately align them with the solutions you offer. Paint them a picture of how their reality looks like now with that glitch in their lives, and let them have a vision of their potentially rosy future in case that they accept your offer. Of course, this should be formulated in a compelling and yet subtle manner, which is why it's wise to go through a list of marketing agencies and find the ones that specialize in outreach. When you partner with experienced professionals that understand your business' needs, you can leave everything to them. Why waste time on a hit-and-miss tactic when you can ensure that your ROI lives up to the expectations?
Let's Get Personal
Generic email blasts are luckily a relic of the past, but if you have automated your outreach, it can be complex to avoid that one-size-fits-all approach, nuance your email messages, and achieve the next best thing to the 1-on-1 personalization level.
Personalized outreach has become a staple in email marketing, but you're wrong if you think that using your recipients' names will do.
In order to establish a deeper and more meaningful relationship with them, you need to go beyond these superficial attempts. It's particularly important to segment your target audience into smaller groups in order to create unique and personalized messages.
After you've sliced and diced your contact list based on different criteria, including age, gender, location, income, job, seniority level, interests, and anything that you could think of, it's time to compose the right message for each segment and refine your copy so that it addresses their needs and interests.
Besides implementing these obvious personalization methods for establishing rapport, it's also important to "speak" the language of every segment and use their jargon.
Finally, don't forget to mention why you've singled them out among others. People love when you make them feel special and unique, so tap into this psychological trick and reach the next level of personalization.
Of course, personalization will be effective only if what you say sounds genuine, which means that you need to know and understand your audience well. When the stakes are high, such as when you want to contact top decision-makers and big shot CEOs. Do your research and find out as much as possible about them on their company website, or social media.
Warm Up That Cold Shoulder
Many cold emails get a frosty reception.
Using different tactics to break the ice can help you warm your recipients up, thus increasing the likelihood of a significantly warmer welcome.
First of all, referrals are a surefire way of making your recipients give your email a second look.
So, if you have a mutual connection, do mention it in a subject line if possible. This kind of name dropping will prompt your suspicious prospects to give you the benefit of the doubt. Your existing customer, co-worker, or a former boss, in a way, vouches for you and helps you come off as a credible, trustworthy person.
Contacting your prospects through social media and starting a conversation with them is another great method of laying the foundation for successful outreach before you get in touch via email. After this initial contact, your outreach won't be considered cold anymore.
These tips will help you find out what makes your target audience tick and tailor your outreach accordingly.

Speech at George Mason
Posted on December 2, 2007 1 Comment
Thursday night's speech at George Mason University went quite well considering that beltway traffic and directions from someone who was highly enthusiastic in sending me 10 miles in the wrong direction led me to being an hour late! But Allah is the best of planners, as everyone watched Napoleon's conversion story first. Afterwards I spoke and it went quite well. A very enlightening Q&A session went on afterwards which primarily centered around a group of very eager Christian brethren who asked what seemed to be preplanned questions designed to put me in very awkward positions. To see what happened, check back here for a clip and Find Islam Media for the full-length DVD.

Who is Allah?
Posted on November 26, 2007 1 Comment
The word Allah is the perfect description of the "One God" of monotheism for Jews, Christians and Muslims!
Allah is the same word used by Christian Arabs and Jewish Arabs in their Bible, centuries before Islam came.
The very word Allah is a word that simply means "The God", and when it is used it is referring to the One True God, the creator and fashioner of all that exists, and the only one who is deserving of our worship.
On page one of Genesis in the Old Testament, we find the word Allah seventeen times.
Every hotel and motel has a Bible. Next time you see one look in the introduction, you will find samples of the different languages they have translated. For Arabic they have translated the verse in the New Testament in Arabic from the famous verse in the Gospel John 3:16 -"For God so loved the world . . . "
– and the word the translators used in Arabic for "God" is the very same word used by Muslims around the planet, Allah.
Where does the word Allah Come From?
Allah comes from the Arabic word "ilah" a god' or something worshiped.
This word (ilah) can be made plural (gods), and it can be male or female just as the word in English can be "goddess."
Allah comes from "ilaha" but it brings more clarification and understanding.
Points of Clarification:
- Allah– Has no gender (not male and not female)
- The word "He"– is used only out of respect and dignity – not for gender
- Allah – Always singular – Never plural
- The term "We"– is used only as the "Royal WE" just as in English for royalty
- Allah -Means "The God, the Only One to be Worshipped"
So as you can see the term Allah is not some new word coined for some unknown god that is exclusive to Muslims, the term Allah is simply the best and most perfect and truest fitting description for the one true creator of the heavens and earth, and the one to whom we should direct ALL of our acts of worship.
May Allah guide us to the truth.

Tips to Consider When Choosing a Radiator
Radiators are considered as coolants used to regulate hot temperatures.If the temperatures in an engine rises at a very high level, a radiator usually cools the high temperatures by passing a cooling effect, which absorbs the heat.This therefore suggests that a radiator is a device, which is mechanical in nature, and is used to regulate hot temperatures.You need to invest in a radiator if your engine or house has excessive heat.Buying a radiator is not a simple task.This is because there are so many different types of radiators in the market.
Picking one radiator becomes very daunting.Make sure you have the following important factors in mind during the selection process.First and foremost, make sure that you consider the heat output of your potential radiator.If you want to know the heart output, make sure you apply the BTU.Take note that the higher the value of the BTU, the more the heat output.
It is important that you use a BTU calculator to gauge how much BTU you may require.If you feel like your radiator has a very high BTU, you have the option of making adjustments.If it is an electric radiator, consider the watts and not the BTU.Pay more attention on the size of a radiator before making any commitments to purchase one.It should not be too big or too small.In addition to size, consider the depth of your potential radiator.The depth and size of a radiator will detect the heat output of this particular radiator.
Do not hesitate to enquire about the material of a radiator you are about to purchase.This is because the type of material a radiator has will affect the rate at which it cools or heats up.You may be wondering the best kind of material is the best one.This is a common question among people shopping for a radiator.This popular question can be solved by getting a material that will serve you for a long period of time and ensure that the radiator perfectly regulates the heat.
Another key factor to consider is the cost you will have to pay to acquire a radiator.Create a budget that you are willing to spend on a radiator before even getting out of the house to shop for one.Your choice of a radiator will depend with whether it fits into your estimated budget.Price should not be used as an indicator for quality.
Take your time to analyze the features of your potential radiator.Do not expect that the radiator you want to buy has similar features with all other radiators.Make sure you have conducted an extensive research on all radiators and their features beforehand.Pick a radiator with favorable features.

CHESTNUT RIDGE, NY – OCTOBER 1, 2014 – BioHitech America, the most innovative and
sustainable solution company for food waste disposal, endorses the Massachusetts commercial
food waste ban which went into effect today. The ban, which is the strictest food-waste
legislation to date, requires that businesses and institutions producing one ton or more of food
waste per week must divert it from landfills.
"With the growing challenges of climate change and depletion of our Earth's natural resources,
the inefficient processes for waste collection and disposal need to be reformed in order to
provide a better solution," said Frank E. Celli, Chief Executive Officer of BioHitech America.
"The Massachusetts law banning food waste helps reduce the needs for landfills, decrease
greenhouse gasses, saves on disposal costs, and helps turn trash into vital resources needed
for the continued survival of our environment."
Experts estimate that nearly 1,700 businesses in Massachusetts including hospitals, hotels,
grocery stores, restaurant chains, universities, etc. will be subject to the new ban.
"Massachusetts joins Vermont and Connecticut which already have imposed bans on the
disposal of food waste," added Mr. Celli. "We are seeing this shift becoming a trend, upcoming
legislation has been passed to start in New York City in July 2015 and others will follow.
Sustainable alternatives are no longer just a social responsibility; they are becoming a
mandatory requirement."
Every year, more than 34 million tons of food waste ends up in landfills that release harmful
methane gas into the environment. As landfills continue to run out of space and companies
continue to generate an excess of food waste, a growing number of jurisdictions are starting to
restrict or ban food waste from going to landfills.
About BioHitech America
BioHitech America's unique solution to food waste combines green technology with the power of
big data to offer transparency, savings and a sustainable future. The company's Eco-Safe
Digester, an on-site aerobic digester, eliminates up to 2,400 pounds of food waste in a 24-hour
period by converting it into nutrient-neutral water and transporting the water safely through
standard sewer lines. The BioHitech Cloud, a technology platform hosted by Amazon, measures
key metrics to optimize the food waste disposal process. These metrics are providing the
industry with an unprecedented level of transparency that not only helps to reduce the amount
of waste generated, but improve company-wide efficiency and profitability.
BioHitech America was recently selected to participate in the exclusive Credit Suisse Private
Innovation Circle event. Their solution is the leading sustainable method that allows businesses
to move towards the prevention of waste altogether. For more information, please visit

Food is always serious and Easter presents us with the perfect opportunity to indulge in chocolatey coated treats. These Easter egg cups with white chocolate mousse are rich and delicious. A spoonful of lemony curd is a playful riff on soft boiled eggs. Super fun and so good! The white chocolate mousse filling is the simplest thing to make. Using marshmallows as the base for the mousse, the consistency is stable and holds its shape easily. To make a dark chocolate mousse, replace the white chocolate with 70% dark chocolate and perhaps a splash of orange liqueur. A mousse duo will also be delicious, served in dainty martini glasses for an elegant dinner party dessert. If you missed yesterday's post for my 4 minute Lemon curd, here's the easy recipe. Wishing you all a very blessed and Happy Easter.
Easter egg cups with white chocolate mousse and lemon curd yolks
Makes 4-6
For the white chocolate mousse
65g mini white marshmallows
100g white chocolate
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon rum (omit if making for children and replace with water)
25g butter
50ml cream
200 ml single, whipping cream
To finish
4-6 medium or large hollow, chocolate eggs
lemon curd, for the yolks
Place the marshmallows, white chocolate, water, rum, butter and 50ml cream in a heat resistant bowl. Position over a pot of simmering water and stir until the chocolate and marshmallows are melted. You could also microwave on high at 40 second intervals until melted. Whisk until completely smooth. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
Whisk the 200ml cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream gently into the marshmallow mixture. Go slowly and be careful not over-mix as the mousse can easily split. Refrigerate until needed.
To assemble, carefully crack open the top of the chocolate eggs. Fill a piping bag with the mousse and pipe into the hollow eggs. The piping bag method is the simplest way to fill the eggs, but if you're patient, just spoon in carefully. Place the filled eggs in egg cup holders and finish with a teaspoon amount of lemon curd. Chill until ready to serve.
This recipe was inspired by the talented Steph from Raspberricupcakes. You can read here how Steph filled her chocolate eggs with cheesecake filling and passionfruit yolks.
Baked Nutella chocolate mousse torte
Baked Nutella chocolate mousse torte
Playful, yet impressive, this dark chocolate torte takes centre stage at the Easter celebration table. And what would Easter be without the gold ribboned Lindt bunny? The texture of this cake is unlike any cake I've eaten before. It falls somewhere between a torte and a baked chocolate mousse. It's moist and sublimely rich. I've coated the torte with a thin layer of chocolate frosting, which created a surface for the crumbs to cling to. The crumb is made from toasted chocolate muffins.
A classic torte calls for ground nuts or breadcrumbs rather than flour, which yields a slightly denser texture. I've used flour for a lighter crumb but, if you want to make it gluten-free, opt for ground almonds. So although not 100% a torte, the balance of the ingredients and method follows the torte profile. I'd serve the torte for dessert on Easter Sunday, but if you prefer to keep it simple, skip the frosting and crumbs and dust with cocoa powder. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
Baked Nutella chocolate mousse torte
Serves 12
120g dark chocolate (Lindt 50% or 70% if you prefer a darker and less sweet cake)
50g Nutella chocolate spread
100g salted butter
110g castor sugar, plus 2 tablespoons extra for the egg whites
1 shot espresso (30ml)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs, separated
100 g all-purpose cake flour
20g cocoa powder
pinch of salt
Preheat the oven to 180º C. Grease and line the base of a 22cm springform cake tin and dust the sides with flour or cocoa. Melt the chocolate over a pot of simmer water until smooth. Remove from the heat and whisk in the Nutella. Set aside.
With an electric whisk, beat the butter and castor sugar together until pale and well creamed. Add the espresso and vanilla extract. Whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time, until well combined. Fold the Nutella chocolate into the egg mixture. Sift in the flour, cocoa and salt. Fold to combine.
Whisk the 3 egg whites with a pinch of salt to form soft peaks. Add 2 tablespoons castor sugar to the whites and beat until stiff and meringue-like in texture. Fold one third of the whites into the batter to loosen it up. This can be done quite briskly. Now fold the remaining whites in, but more gently this time to keep the batter light and aerated.
Pour the mixture into the cake tin and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for at least 15 minutes. Run a knife carefully around the sides to loosen. Leave to cool completely.
For the chocolate frosting and cocoa crumbs
40g softened butter
200g confectioner's sugar
20g cocoa powder
40g dark chocolate, melted
1 tablespoon milk
2 store bought chocolate muffins
For the chocolate frosting, beat the butter until creamy and light. Sift in the confectioner's sugar and cocoa powder. Whisk until combined. Add the cooled, melted chocolate and the milk. Mix until the chocolate is well incorporated. NB If the chocolate is not cooled to room temperature, it will seize up when added to the buttercream. Also, ensure that the butter is softened and at room temp before commencing.
To make the cocoa crumbs, whizz the muffins in a processor until fine. Spread out onto a baking sheet and bake in a 180º C oven for around 10 minutes until crisp and crunchy. Set aside to cool.
To assemble, turn the torte over onto a cake stand with the base of the cake facing upwards. Cover the sides and top of the cake with a thin layer of frosting. Gently press the dried cocoa crumbs onto the sides and the top top of the cake. Carefully brush away any excess crumbs. Top with the Lindt bunnies. This torte will keep well for 4 days.

2020 Honda Insight EX MPG Colors, Release Date, Interior, Specs, Hp – Usually the first of all-era group Honda Insight EX MPG was first a ridiculous a trio of-doorway contraption in addition to wheel spats. The real following-advancement 2020 Honda Insight EX MPG was a 5 different-house hatchback that, in spite of possessing turning into the most economical hybrid on the sector as it launched, seldom swept up in order that you can Toyota's Prius.
Genuinely, many of the organic gas-electric models that are promoting excellent are variations that do not make a serious problem with regards to powertrains and as an alternative proffer them a lot more considerable vitality-economy data without similar to some type of alien space pod. The pragmatically stylish and conventionally crossover Kia Niro, for instance, considerably outsells its higher Ionic platform-partner. And the Toyota RAV4 hybrid has outsold the Prius from time to time throughout 2018.
To its 2020 Honda Insight EX MPG is not often deciding on to focus just its hybrid status as well as EPA power source of information-economy search rankings-which are as big as 52 MPG blended-instead of centering its pitch in this Insight to be a peaceful, handy, successfully-offered sedan you do to keep some eyeball-popping usefulness cell phone numbers.
2020 Honda Insight EX MPG Specs and Hp
Hidden lower than the 2020 Honda Insight EX MPG's webpage substance is a 1.5-liter Atkinson-never ever-finishing period petroleum engine creating accessible 107 HP and 99 lb-feet of torque. Chuck by two electronically driven engines and you have acquired a hybrid stew placing out a planet-broad-internet 151 horsepower and 197 lb-ft.
It could perhaps try out using some fiddling by signifies of options and dismissing your personal lizard principles on engine disruption to incorporate up of the product all, but when anybody does, it is truly useful.
There are a handful of press configurations provided: Typical, Sport, Eco, and EV. Irrespective of the acceleration costs, I committed pretty much my sum of time in Ecotype, which increases electrical power-only surgical treatment.
Typical design sacrifices economy for additional speed. Sport, concerning generally the, in contrast, makes the engine rev considerably better for a much longer time devoid of producing any substantial performance improves, plus it truly reasons the presenter methods to generate your engine even louder, for that reason I think it is did actually be most beneficial disregarded.
A minimum solar energy electric battery signifies that you will keep an eye on the desire examine drop astoundingly actually quickly, but experiencing a small number of kilometers of EV-only enterprise without having to obtain to purchase a plug-in hybrid develop is nevertheless fantastic.
The EV management switch permits you to take into account when to get the power source do its issue on their own, but there is no "have" establishing to be specific you have a monthly bill when you are interested to buy.
2020 Honda Insight EX MPG Interior
Sport functionality, which honestly can seem to be a small out of shape furnished with the viewpoint of this sedan, very seriously cranks up the susceptibility of the accelerator pedal as well as to some degree changes usually the provider with power-so, a lot more from the solar energy electric battery versus the strength power generator-for maximum effect.
A tug of the put aside steering-wheel paddle directions up a whole lot more regenerative braking in a handful of steps, the best of which is not a factor special to the one certain-pedal traveling this some EV lovers pick, even though it the Prius's B method.
It is generally 2020 Honda Insight EX MPG usually the engine seems loud from time to time considering that Honda does a great work mitigating path seems. Actions performed include the liberal use concerning insulating material glass, added disturbances performance versus the genuine Civic, and in addition new changes documented to focus on racket and vacation stage of high quality.
Without a question, the Insight's cabin could be higher-finish-car tranquil. Lively Disruption Restrain functions by making use of the seem system's loudspeakers to further temper course appears to be; in the add-on, it will nutritional supplement the engine racket in Sport functionality, a variation that is distinctly discovered when traveling further intensely.
The 2020 Honda Insight EX MPG combined with Going to have in the end the exact same 8.-in. infotainment procedure as this company-new Accord, with incorporated Apple company CarPlay and Google Android Auto and satellite and HD fm radio station, two Widespread serial shuttle plug-ins, and a volumes alternative.
Going to models place food selection, HD on the web electronic digital webpage sights, conversation id, and a 450-watt songs system with 10 sound audio speakers, in addition to available HondaLink cloud-set up products.
Basis LX models locate a 5.-in. solar panel with Wifi Bluetooth songs webs internet streaming, as nicely as a 140-watt songs system with fifty percent dozens of loudspeakers. To safeguard in opposition to an extremely much the very same Civic sedan, generally the Insight is a whole lot of 1000 $ significantly less inexpensive, however, it is really also a lot far better inside.

Diversification of Economy: CBN disburses N174.58bn to 19 financial institutions
DETERMINED to improve the diversification of the nation's economy, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said it has disbursed over N174.48billion through 19 participating financial institutions to finance 902,518 farmers in Nigeria.
Making this known as the Central Bank governor, Professor Godwin Emefiele during the CBN's special day at the 30th Enugu International Trade Fair, Enugu.
Professor Emefiele also disclosed that the Bank also disbursed about N183.09billion to stabilise the generation of more than 1,200mw in both hydro and thermal plants overhaul of Jebba Hydro and Shiroro as well as Kaiji Dams.
Emefiele who was represented by the Director, Corporate Communications Department of Central Bank, Isaac Okorafor, commended the choice of the theme of Enugu trade fair; "Promoting and Enhancing Value Addition in the Oil and Non-Oil sector of the economy for robust economic growth and development", stating that Central Bank has sustained its intervention in other critical sectors particularly in Agriculture, Power, Aviation, Health and many others.
"It is with a great sense of gratitude and honour that I welcome you all to the CBN special day at the ongoing 30th Enugu international trade fair with the theme; " promoting and enhancing value addition in the oil and non-oil sector of the economy for robust economic growth and development."
"The bank finds the aforementioned theme very fitting as it elaborately captured the effort of the Central Bank of Nigeria toward diversification of the economy against the current overdependence on the oil sector. As part of its developmental functions, the bank has sustained its intervention in other critical sectors particularly in Agriculture, power, Aviation, Health, etc; aimed at triggering robust economic growth and development of the country.
"These interventions which have contributed significantly in driving Nigeria's economic growth and development include, but not limited to the following: Anchor borrowers programme; This scheme was launched in 2015 and has recorded tremendous success not only in terms of reduction in the nation's food import bills, conservation of foreign exchange and boosting the income levels/financial capacity of the local farmers.
"A cumulative of N174,48billion had been disbursed through 19 participating financial institutions to finance 902,518 farmers working with 194 anchor companies. The ABP had also created 2,807,775 and 8,423,325 direct and indirect jobs, respectively" Emefiele stated.
Okorafor assured that the bank under the leadership of Governor Emefiele would not rest on its oars until Nigeria gets to its destination of robust economic growth and development.
He disclosed that the bank in its effort to deliver credible, reliable and efficient payment system as a key driver to any robust economic growth and development, created the payment system management department to drive effective banking system.

- Potential gaps in care for more than 14,000 people registered with GP outside their area
- National policy means GPs are not responsible for home visits for registrants beyond their boundary
- CCGs covering 14,000 out of area people could not provide details of home visiting services
- GP says potential gaps may be a safety risk
There may be gaps in primary care for more than 14,000 people who are registered with GP practices outside their area, HSJ has found.
The commissioners responsible for these patients told HSJ they had not commissioned or were not aware of any home visiting services for them, a situation the British Medical Association said was concerning.
The GP choice policy allows a practice to register people who do not live within its boundary – and means the practice is not responsible when home visits are needed, as it is normally.
Commissioning responsibility for alternative home visiting services for out of area patients is now unclear, and HSJ has uncovered apparently substantial gaps.
NHS England, which had responsibility when the policy was introduced in 2015, told us it held no information about the services and to contact clinical commissioning groups, most of which have taken on delegated responsibility for general practice.
Across all 207 CCGs in England, as of October, there were a total of 82,620 people who were registered with a GP outside of their home area.
Of these, in response to freedom of information requests, 16 CCGs – covering 3,036 out of area people – told HSJ they had commissioned no home visiting service.
A further 23 CCGs – covering 11,167 people - said they held no information about it.
The remaining 64 CCGs – covering 19,892 people - said they had commissioned or were aware of a home visiting service for their area.
The remainder, 104 CCGs, did not respond in time for publication.
The news follows the launch in November of GP at Hand – the GP practice with several central London clinics, which makes extensive use of digital consultations and encourages registrations from across a wider area. It has registered thousands of people in recent months, who are unlikely to be covered in HSJ's 82,620 figure.
GP at Hand is required to only register people who live within 45 minutes travel of its clinics. Prior to its launch, NHS England raised concerns about home visiting services for its patients, and in response it agreed it would provide visits for people on its list - an anomaly under the current GP choice policy. Its home visiting service is provided by another company.
BMA GP committee chair Richard Vautrey told HSJ: "As more patients are being encouraged by some providers to be registered under out of area arrangements, it is concerning that so many CCGs have failed to put in place home visiting services to provide safe care for these patients should they be too ill to travel to their new practice.
"If commissioners are going to support providers that are using the out of area registration arrangement to rapidly expand their lists they must also ensure a comprehensive coverage of home visiting arrangements across the whole of the country."
George Farrelly, a GP in Tower Hamlets who raised concerns about home visiting under the choice policy, told HSJ: "What [NHS England] were trying to set up was a train wreck right from the beginning… of course it is unsafe.
"[It is unsafe] where you have people who are unwell at home and are unable to get to a walk in centre. In some situations, they might have to dial an ambulance where it is not a wholly appropriate thing to do."
NHS England was approached for comment.
In a separate problem with provision for people registered outside their area, HSJ revealed last year that NHS England had acknowledged that people in that position may not be referred to the correct services when they call NHS 111, due to a "flaw" in its systems.

My husband, who was born in South Korea and adopted by an American family at 5 months, has recently made a couple of important decisions. Jeremy is ready to begin looking for his birth family in Korea, and he hopes to travel to Korea in the summer of 2010. These are his decisions—I am publicizing them only to show my support for him. We believe this journey to be very important, regardless of the outcome.
Because the Internet has reduced the boundaries between nations and cultures, we are hoping that people who could help us might stumble upon this blog. Here are a few particulars:
Birth surname: Joo
Birth first name: Hyun
American name: Jeremy Stevenson
Born at: Kwun Boo Jun Maternity Home (#520, Yunhee Dong, Seodaemun Ku, Seoul, South Korea)
Birthdate: January 29, 1975
Weight: 3.5 Kg
Released by: David Livingston Adoption Program for U.S. adoption
Current circumstances: Jeremy is now 34 years of age, married, with two beautiful young sons
Here is a picture of Jeremy today:
At this point, nothing is known about Jeremy's birth mother—not even a name. She disappeared shortly after he was born. He was placed with a foster mother whom he lived with until he was sent to America for adoption by the Stevensons in July 1975.
Before Jeremy was ready to "look," we had talked about taking our whole family to Korea—someday, when the kids are older. We still plan to do so later, but this first trip needs to be alone, for several practical reasons.
Through a fellow Korean adoptee, Jeremy found out about G.O.A.L.'s program for Korean adoptees. G.O.A.L. (Global Overseas Adoption Link) takes care of lodging and many other logistics for adult Korean adoptees returning to the motherland; adoptees pay their own airfare. At this point, we are not sure how to finance the airfare, but we do have several months to plan.
One advantage: Joo is not a common surname. It is possible that his name was changed by the maternity home.
If you can help in any way, please contact me, Elena Stevenson, at email@example.com
Thank you so much for reading. Your help and support will make the biggest difference for our family—and for another one, now unseen, in the Land of the Morning Calm.

Turbidity Sensor Model 851The Model 851 Turbidity Sensor is a rugged DC-powered insertion-type probe that measures turbidity as a standalone unit. Since the sensor can be inserted into any size pipe, costly bypass systems are not required. The design eliminates the effects of fluid color. In-situ measurements provide instantaneous, accurate readings and the sensor has an isolated linear 4-20mA output for connection to control/monitoring systems. Calibrated range switches allow for the selection of four NTU ranges.
Easy Installation
Initial installation of our insertion sensor is as easy as installing a 1-inch female NPT fitting in the process piping. Once installed, the sensor can be inserted and removed without interrupting process flow.
Instantaneous Response
Because the sensor optics are in the process stream, the Model 851 turbidity sensor does not require bypass systems. Our in-stream measurement eliminates slow response times inherent with turbidimeters requiring bypass plumbing. The Model 851 is extremely effective where filter monitoring is crucial, and efficiency or breakthrough must be detected quickly.
Wide Dynamic Range
Our turbidity sensor has four ranges from 0-2 NTU to 0-2000 NTU. The low-level range (0-2 NTU) has a resolution of 0.001 NTU and is useful in processes where very low turbidity measurement is required. The higher ranges can be used on raw water supplies and other processes where turbidity is monitored before filtering.
Handles Harsh Process Conditions
The optical design of the sensor minimizes the effects of fluid color, flow, chemicals, temperature & pressure. Our instrument operates under a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions. Robust wetted parts are 316 stainless steel and glass for high resistance to process chemicals.
Industrial Applications
- Potable water
- Wastewater
- Dairy
- Mining
- Chemical
- Food and beverage
- Breweries
- Pulp and paper
- Forestry
- Environmental
Data Communication
Our turbidity sensor comes standard with an isolated 4-20mA output for connection to control/monitoring systems. Other outputs are available.
Minimal Maintenance
The Model 851 uses a light source with a 13-year life expectancy which provides long-term stability and very low maintenance. Although our turbidity sensor is easily calibrated by the end user, calibration drift is minimal. Because sensor removal is simple, the optics can readily be cleaned as necessary.
- DC power (12 VDC or 24 VDC)
- 4-20mA standard output; other outputs available (0-5V, 0-10V, etc.)
- Pipe insertion/removal ball valve assembly for easy sensor access in pressurized process line
Limited one-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship.

You might think, with today's endless parade of television cooking shows, that the dining public's appetite for a theatrical restaurant experience might be whetted. But mostly this does not seem to be the case. Oh, we have plenty of display kitchens, and soufflés finished tableside, and occasionally you might happen upon on a cheese cart, or a foie gras or champagne cart. Yet the typical restaurant experience is notably slim on any actual culinary drama, unless something goes dreadfully wrong: a steak burned, a chicken paillard undercooked, a tray of dirty dishes dropped.
Then there might be a scene, with some lively dialogue. But this doesn't happen often. The usual course of events is that food is ordered and, later, brought, ready to eat. If your restaurant has a display kitchen, you might have caught a glimpse of line cooks doing something or other, but the likelihood is that you wouldn't be able to figure out what they were up to, and almost certainly you would have no way of knowing whose plate they were working on.
Imagine my delight, then, when the chicken volcano ($19) at Grand Pu Bah, an 18-month-old Thai restaurant near the Concourse Exhibition Center at Eighth and Brannan streets, turned out to be almost as exciting as a high school science experiment. The roasted bird arrived, still mounted on its upright roaster. The server, after muttering a few cautionary words (or perhaps a prayer), emptied a small tumbler of some kind of liquor over the chicken (actually a game hen) — I thought I heard "151" and "tequila" — lit a match, and set my dinner gloriously ablaze. He did not say Opa!, as the Greeks do when lighting saganaki cheese on fire, but the omission did not matter, because the hen burned a beautiful, steady, Bunsen-burner blue for seconds that might have stretched into a minute.
When the flame finally died out, the bird had a crisp-crinkly golden skin as impressive as that of any roast chicken in town. Even if the dish had been bad, I would have said nothing, having enjoyed the show (and discreetly warmed my hands). But the meat was tender and moist, the accompanying roasted cauliflower florets and potato quarters tasty (despite not being torched), and the ramekins of mysterious dipping sauces (one red, the other neatly divided between red and green by a bisecting diagonal, like a flag) welcome. Even good chicken benefits from a bit of extra help. My only complaint: the hen was awkward to eat. The server, having kindled his blue blaze and departed, did not return to lift the finished item from its perch. Since I couldn't see a graceful way to do it, I just hacked away as discreetly as possible while thinking there must be a more elegant way.
Elegance, interestingly, otherwise pervades Grand Pu Bah. Despite the silly name, the restaurant is surely among the most stylish Thai places in the city and is, really, stylish by any standard. The space, which spreads away from the entrance like a baseball diamond folding out from home plate, includes a handsomely backlit bar, walls textured with what appear to be wood cuttings and offset bricks, and paper lamps that hang from the ceiling like giant porcini stems being air-cured for some kind of mushroom prosciutto. The overall flavor of the design suggests a contemporary California restaurant, and indeed executive chef Teerapong Khantawisut's menu emphasizes "local and seasonal ingredients." At some point will this be required by law?
The menu offers "Thai beach cuisine" in the "family style" — sharing is encouraged — and includes a raw bar (with oysters and sashimi), a conventional array of appetizers, soups, salads, and main courses, and a large collection of shareable plates grouped under the rubric "street food." Why the chicken volcano should have been slotted in here isn't obvious; it's hardly street food and not all that shareable.
Some of the other offerings here spread themselves around the table much more easily: sizzling spicy beef pad cha ($18), for instance, strips of flank steak tossed with slivers of bell pepper and fresh chile and cubes of Thai eggplant and electrified by kaffir lime leaf and wild ginger. For a slightly sweeter tack, there's roasted duck in a broad-shouldered but well-behaved coconut-red curry sauce fructified by pineapple chunks, lychee nuts, grapes, and tomato quarters. (Tomato is a fruit, don't forget!)
And, of course, appetizers and salads are shareable, even if they're not marked that way. Sizzling spicy prawns ($10) were indeed sizzling — they arrived, like fajitas, on a hot cast-iron platter — and were souped up with chiles, cilantro, lemongrass, and lime. I liked the chunked taro root added as ballast to fresh rolls ($8), otherwise filled with a traditional jumble of tofu, basil, cilantro, and cucumber; the root meat was both creamy and weighty. A similarly moderating influence would have benefited the seafood salad ($14), which was a kind of southeast Asian caesar salad — romaine hearts tossed with prawns, scallops, and calamari — but finished with a spicy lime vinaigrette that was the spiciest vinaigrette I've ever had, including my own, and George likes spicy chicken. It isn't every day you come across a salad that's almost too hot to eat. This one had me panting like a dog on a blazing August afternoon.
We laughed, we shared, we panted, we thought the dessert menu was a little perfunctory and was the one dimension in which Grand Pu Bah is more Thai than California. Fried bananas ($8) come with beer ice cream — weird, slightly sharp but acceptable. And yet: never again. The beer is Singha, which is always good and is at its best when icy cold, not as actual ice.

About Small Double Bed Frames
Small double bed frames are ideal for a young adult or college students. Slightly larger than a single bed which can be a little cramped for teenagers but still fit in most rooms. It's unlikely that one will have two small double beds in a room but it is possible to fit in a larger room.
Small Double Bed Dimension
The size of a small double bed is 4'0" x 6'3" or 120cm x 190cm and our small double beds should accomodate a mattress from any supplier of these sizes. These size mattresses are available in UK and can be found in Europe too. We have a range of natural pocket sprung mattresses which are compatible with our beds and beds by other manufacturers.
European Small Double Beds
In some European countries a small double bed is 120cm x 200cm which is slightly longer than a standard the UK small double bed. All of our small double beds can also be done in European sizes. European small double mattresses are available in UK and Europe readily and we can also customise one of our natural pocket sprung mattresses to these sizes.
We also have other bed sizes available.

Can You Believe This, Nigeria Has Spent $13 Billion On Peacekeeping Operations Since Independence
Former Polish Ambassador to Nigeria, Grezgorz Walinski has said that Nigeria has spent about $13 billion on peacekeeping operations since 1960 and has also sent over 250,000 members of the Nigerian armed forces to the United Nation's sponsored missions worldwide.
According to him, the country started peacekeeping operations few days after her independence in 1960 in Congo and since then, the country's forces have participated in many operations across the globe under varying international legal authority executing a variety of operational mandates. "Her contribution to the UN peacekeeping operations is only surpassed by those of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Over 250,000 members of the Nigerian armed forces have participated in UN sponsored missions worldwide.""Having been involved in 40 of the 55 peacekeeping missions of the UN, Nigeria has now participated in 73 percent of all UN peacekeeping operations. Four of these missions have been commanded by Nigeria senior military officers. Nigeria currently has about 6, 000 peacekeepers in various flashpoints, 4, 000 of which are in Darfur, Sudan," he stated. I wish the countires we have helped so far can return the favour, theres fire on the mountain oh. What about BH? A whole 13 billion, thats besides all he unaccounted/stolen money.
