The most spectacular access is gained via the monumental flight of steps. The outside of the church is decorated with green and white marble, typical of Florentine Romanesque, while the interior, which is unusual and of great beauty, boasts one of the city’s best conserved original floors. 10 MERCATO CENTRALE Built at the end of the 19th century, the Central Market is a building of a certain architectural merit. The project was entrusted to Giuseppe Mengoni, the architect of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, who was inspired by 6 3 8 13 Les Halles in Paris.

  • 97 Activity Guide
    Site Activity Guide .Introduction . he Safe Food for the Hungry ’97—A Focus on Diversity on-site learning activities build on and reinforce the broadcast portion of the videoconference workshop. The activities included in this year’s TSite Activity Guide are designed to be used with a group. Group activities should generate discussion and encourage participants to learn from each other. Talking and sharing with other individuals who have similar experiences and/or problems can be one of the most valuable aspects of the workshop. Depending on the number of participants at each site, group activities can be done with the entire group, or the participants can be split into smaller groups. The live portion of the Safe Food for the Hungry ’97—A Focus on Diversity videoconference workshop and the site activities will explore issues of food safety and nutrition as they relate to emergency feeding programs. The broadcast will look at food safety and nutrition through the life cycle, from pregnant mothers and infants to the elderly, while connecting to related issues of multiculturalism. The program emphasizes interactivity and practical solutions to common challenges. The on-site workshop activities comprise four lessons which introduce the concepts of diversity, nutrition, and food safety. The Activity Guide is divided into two sections. The first section contains detailed lesson plans. The second section consists of reference materials to aid participants in completing the activities. The satellite broadcast, workshop activities, and print materials combine to create a framework that organizations can use to examine their programs and to solve problems.

No, it’s both! 9405 EIDC_Silhou_IBC 3/5/20 8:48 AM Page 5 C M Y CM MY CY CMY K Composite [ CEO’S WELCOME ] Dear Guests, Welcome aboard! As you are probably aware, the aviation industry globally is under considerable pressure over the issue of carbon emissions and its impact on climate change. At Air Seychelles we are indeed proud of the contribution we are making towards sustainable development. Following the successful delivery of our second Airbus A320neo aircraft, Pti Merl Dezil in March 2020, I am pleased to announce that Air Seychelles is now operating the youngest jet fleet in the Indian Ocean. Performing to standard, the new engine option aircraft is currently on average generating 20% fuel savings per flight and 50% reduced noise footprint. This amazing performance cannot go unnoticed and we remain committed to further implement ecological measures across our business. Apart from keeping Seychelles connected through air access, Air Seychelles also provides ground handling services to all customer airlines operating at the Seychelles International Airport. Following an upsurge in the number of carriers coming into the Seychelles, in 2019 we surpassed the 1 million passenger threshold handled at the airport, recording an overall growth of 5% increase in arrival and departures. Combining both inbound and outbound travel including the domestic network, Air Seychelles alone contributed a total of 414,088 passengers after having operated 1,983 flights.

The World Federation of Rose Societies Rose Directory attempts to do that. Our aim is to gather together the most important rose information from each of the thirty-nine member countries that make up the WFRS. This is information that is commonly known by members of each national rose society about roses in their own country, but it is information that is hard to come by for other rose lovers.

  • Middle Eastern Cuisine
    MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE The term Middle Eastern cuisine refers to the various cuisines of the Middle East. Despite their similarities, there are considerable differences in climate and culture, so that the term is not particularly useful. Commonly used ingredients include pitas, honey, sesame seeds, sumac, chickpeas, mint and parsley. The Middle Eastern cuisines include: Arab cuisine Armenian cuisine Cuisine of Azerbaijan Assyrian cuisine Cypriot cuisine Egyptian cuisine Israeli cuisine Iraqi cuisine Iranian (Persian) cuisine Lebanese cuisine Palestinian cuisine Somali cuisine Syrian cuisine Turkish cuisine Yemeni cuisine ARAB CUISINE Arab cuisine is defined as the various regional cuisines spanning the Arab World from Iraq to Morocco to Somalia to Yemen, and incorporating Levantine, Egyptian and others. It has also been influenced to a degree by the cuisines of Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, India, the Berbers and other cultures of the peoples of the region before the cultural Arabization brought by genealogical Arabians during the Arabian Muslim conquests. HISTORY Originally, the Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula relied heavily on a diet of dates, wheat, barley, rice and meat, with little variety, with a heavy emphasis on yogurt products, such as labneh (yoghurt without butterfat). As the indigenous Semitic people of the peninsula wandered, so did their tastes and favored ingredients. There is a strong emphasis on the following items in Arabian cuisine: 1. Meat: lamb and chicken are the most used, beef and camel are also used to a lesser degree, other poultry is used in some regions, and, in coastal areas, fish. Pork is not commonly eaten--for Muslim Arabs, it is both a cultural taboo as well as being prohibited under Islamic law; many Christian Arabs also avoid pork as they have never acquired a taste for it.
