Highlights of the history of Embu District

The district of Embu was initially made up of the current Embu district and the now Mbeere district until 1995 when the two were divided by former president Daniel arap Moi.It runs from Thuchi River to Rupingazi River. It is bordered by Mbeere, Meru and Kirinyaga Districts. It also borders Mt Kenya on the eastern side. The general infrastructure is fair as the main roads are fairly well maintained and there is easy access to basic ammenities ranging from watre, electricity, hospitals, schools among others.However, there is still alot remaining in terms of opening up the district. Embu District has various divisions among them Runyenjes, Manyatta, Kyeni and Central.The main cash crops in Embu District are Coffee, Tea, and tricles of tobacco. Other perennial crops include maize, beans, irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, arrow roots, bananas, mangoes among many others. The highlands of Embu are very cold and include areas like kianjokoma where temperatures sometimes hit lows of below 10 degrees celcius. The lower side of the district is relatively warm and here is where tobacco is grown. The district has two Constituencies; Manyatta and Runyenjes. The former is currently (2006) represented by the minister for Co-operative Development, the Honourable Njeru Ndwiga while the latter is represented by Martin Nyaga Wambora. However, the youth seem to be keen on taking up leadership with several youngsters declaring their interest in these seats, notably one Njeru Ngochi whose philosophicl ideas and philanthropic gesture have captured the hearts of locals.

Esperaza

Espéraza is in the département of the Aude, in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. It lies on a tight meander of the River Aude, just north of the foothills of the Pyrenees. Although the cottage is in the town centre with access to all amenities, you can be walking along river banks or in the hills within ten minutes. The main arterial road, the D118, passes near the town, out of sight and hearing, but giving rapid access to many local places of interest. 213.103.202.47 13:31, 4 August 2006 (UTC)Zoe[reply]

Jersey Diners

Jersey Diners (Rutgers University Press 2006, ISBN 0813538769) is a work by Peter Genovese. It is packed with facts, trivia, and stories about the owners, employees, and clientele of a beloved American Institution. In addition, it includes a fully updated directory that details where you can find every diner throughout the state.

About the Book

There is nothing more “Jersey” than a diner. Adorning the highways and byways of fully half of the state’s 567 municipalities, no one in New Jersey lives far from one. There are more diners here than in any other state, and on top of that, two of the three remaining diner manufacturers are located in the Garden State.

In a year of roadside research, Peter Genovese talked to owners, employees, and customers, and ate more bacon and egg sandwiches than he cares to remember. The result is a funny, revealing book which The Courier-Post boasts is “The definitive work on the culinary phenomenon.” Whether you want to know where and how diners started, who invented eggs served in a skillet, why these twenty-four-hours-a-day eateries are so popular, or, most important, which one has the best French toast, Jersey Diners has the answers.The book is also complemented with over three hundred evocative, beautiful photos of the buildings, their distinctive décor, the food, and the people who love it from Sussex to Salem counties.

About the Author

New Jersey Monthly named Peter Genovese one of the 25 “New Jerseyans We Love.” Peter Genovese, a feature writer for the New Jersey Star-Ledger, eats, lives—even dreams—New Jersey. The author of The Jersey Shore Uncovered, Roadside New Jersey, and The Great American Roadtrip (all Rutgers University Press), he has driven 500,000 miles around the state in the past twenty years.

Vimalan

Vimalan is the Sanskrit text for "he who is of less mental strenght". It is a common Hindu name that is often used under the missed pretext that it means "the enlightened one". One should be wary when naming a child as often the meaning of a name in one script can mean something else in another.

Blackbriar Thorn (DC Comics)

Druididc high priest Blackbriar Thorn escaped death at the hands of Roman invaders by fleeing into a forest and transforming himself into solid wood. The other druids were less fortunate, but in their death throes, they unwittingly opened a great fissure that swallowed Thorn. Ge was buried for centuries until archaeologist Professor Lewis Lang unearthed him. By now the high priest was permanently trapped in his wooden body. Thorn's attempts to wreak mystical havok in the 20th century have been thwarted by Superman, Etrigan (DEMON), and Sentinel, among others. While Thorn has seemingly been destroyed on several occasions, he owes his survival to his ability to regenerate from the tiniest splinter.

AtMND1

AtMND1 is the Arabidopsis thaliana homologue of yeast MND1 gene. The expression of this gene is meiotic specific and its mutation cause sterility in plants. Detailed analysis have shown that the mutants are deffective in meiotic processes like homologous pairing of chromosomes and recombination. In Atmnd1 mutants the chromosomes undergoes severe fragmentation due to the ineficient double strand break repair machinery and will give rise non-viable gametes.

Universal Firearms Corporation

Universal Firearms, located in Hileah, FL, started making the M1 .30 Carbine for civilian sales in 1950 after buying surplus machine tools for carbine manufacture (Manufacturd under the name Bullseye). It began using mostly GI surplus parts and then began to make parts as the surplus market dried up. Later Universal changed the design and parts of the carbine and some collectors say thats when the quality went down hill. Universal sold to wholesalers such as Sears, Wards, and K-Mart. Universal Firearms was bought by Iver Johnson Arms (IJA), in 1983, who continued with the Universal Firearms name. The Universal Firearms name was dropped when IJA was bought by American Military Arms Corp. in 1987 Several variants of the .30 Carbine were made by Universal Firearms in calibers such as .44 Mag, .256 Win. Mag and a .25 Caliber bullet based on the .30 Carbine case.

Curtis Eller

An excellent and highly intriguing singer/songwriter who is based in New York City, Curtis Eller has successfully brought a variety of influences to his unorthodox folk-rock vision. The banjo-playing Eller's work has an old-time feel, drawing on an abundance of direct or indirect influences from the '20s, '30s, and '40s (including country singer Jimmie Rodgers, cowboy icon Gene Autry, and Mississippi Delta bluesman Robert Johnson). But Eller's material is far from a carbon copy of music from that era -- there is plenty of rock bite and attitude in his rootsy work, which also contains elements of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and the ballsy outlaw country of Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard. Eller, consciously or unconsciously, reminds listeners what Dylan, Cash, Son House, Pete Seeger, and Haggard have in common -- they are all known for being effective storytellers, and storytelling is where Eller himself shines.

The Queens resident is clearly fascinated by American history; he has written about the American Civil War, silent film star Buster Keaton (who he considers a strong influence), and aviatrix Amelia Earhart. Quite often, Eller's subject matter can be dark; "Alaska" is about a mining disaster, and "The Execution of Black Diamond" was inspired by a bizarre 1929 incident in which a circus elephant was paraded through the streets of a small Texas town and "executed" (the mayor took the first shot) after attacking and killing a local woman. Circuses, in fact, are a major interest of Eller, who studied juggling when he was a kid and calls his band Curtis Eller's American Circus. Eller has often said that his goal as a performer is to "capture the spirit of the Hartford Circus Fire of 1944," a tragedy that cost 167 people their lives and became the worst disaster in the Connecticut city's history.

A circus inferno is a bizarre way to measure artistic or creative success, but then, Eller's eccentricity is part of what makes his work so interesting. A website on the history of Hartford has posted the lyrics to "Hartford, CT," an Eller song describing the World War II-era tragedy. Another unusual thing about Eller is the way he plays the banjo, his primary instrument. Instead of playing it in an exuberant, bluegrass-like fashion, Eller often makes the banjo sound moody, haunting, and dark -- in Eller's hands, the banjo becomes the perfect instrument for songs about mining disasters and circus tragedies.

Originally from Detroit, MI, Eller listened to a variety of music when he was growing up in the Motor City -- everyone from Son House to Iggy Pop. After leaving Detroit, he spent some time in North Carolina, where he was the musical director for a local theater troupe. But Eller grew disenchanted with the theater and moved to New York City (where he made music his primary focus). Eller's debut album, 1890, was released in 2000 and was followed by the three-song EP Banjo Music for Funerals two years later. In 2004, Eller released his second full-length album, Taking Up Serpents Again.

PCBC® The Premier Building Show

PCBC is an annual tradeshow and conference serving residential builders and their project teams. Held each summer in San Francisco's Moscone Center, PCBC draws over 33,000 homebuilders, developers, architects, product manufacturers, and consultants to the industry.

In 2003, Tradeshow Week magazine honored PCBC as one of the 50 fastest growing tradeshows in North America.

Launched in 1959, the original name of the event was Pacific Coast Builders Conference. Since then, it has grown considerably in size and scope, serving a region much broader than the "Pacific Coast" and developing into a major tradeshow much larger than just a "Conference." Still, the acronym PCBC is known and familiar to many throughout the industry, so attempts to change the name have not been embraced. The official name is PCBC® The Premier Building Show.

Maxwell Gratton

Maxwell Gratton was a cantidate in the Australian 2004 Federal Election, running as a Liberal Party Cantidate for the seat of Batman. He was one of the youngest cantidates to stand for the Liberal Party and achieved a 4% swing against the Victorian ALP cantidate. This 4% swing was not enough to get Maxwell over the Line.

Air Canada and Westjet have come to an unexpected agreement after being bought by Chinese government for $1. Both airlines decided to cease in operations tomorrow morning and all flights will be cancelled. As of August 4, 2006, it is expected that more than 100,000 passengers will be affected by the situation. Transport Canada and the Government of Canada have started negotiating a $20 buy back of Air Canada, giving the Chinese Government a 2000% increase in profits.

Tomorrow morning, the Government of Canada will address this issue on every national based newspaper.
