When my 7 year old daughter talks about Nigeria and going back, one of the things on the top of her list is Suya. My 4 year old doesn't remember the absolutely delicious bits of spiced beef on sticks, cooked over hot coals by specialists – men from the northern part of Nigeria, where this is their trademark. Suya is one of those things which Nigerians in diaspora miss, just like the Dutch yearn for dropjes and stroopwaffels! And if you dig further, you'll find most people have jars of suya spice in their pantries. I got my mum to bring me a small sack of the stuff which is stashed in the deep freezer!
Though the experts are from the North you'll find them all over the country. Usually every area in a town will have a 'suya spot', with its 'Malam', a name for the owner or controller of the joint. All day, every day, you'll see the suya spots rife with activity from early morning till dusk, when orange trails blaze the skies with the setting of the sun.

The early hours of the day are spent prepping the meat – beef from cows that have trekked from one end of Nigeria to the other, eating lush green grass along roadsides, drinking cool, refreshing waters from streams running north, south, east and west – talk about free-range cattle. These cows serve up the tastiest beef you ever ate (save for Argentina perhaps) , not to mention being organic :-). The beef is sorted into groups – soft, tender cuts, chewy, hardier portions with fat, bony bits and more. Some chickens also join the fray, winged, giblets and gizzards. When preparations are all done, the meat is marinated in a dry rub of nuts and spices – toasted peanuts (we call them groundnuts), chili powder, ground ginger and salt form the basic spices but as you can imagine, each malam has his special blend, with special proportions and secret ingredients. Other add-ins might be garlic powder, onion powder, spice cubes and paprika.
Then, the meat is threaded onto stick, large pieces cut across the grain. Sometimes, I am reminded of birds and flapping wings as the flat beef pieces dangle from side to side.
About 4 pm, the Malams and their boys set up shop by the roadside, fanning the flame of glowing coals, while turning the meat on sticks gently. As customers troop to purchase suya by the stick, the boys load the stands with more stock. People ask for the type of meat they want, pick and choose specific sticks and then opts to eat it off the stick or have it stripped off the sticks and wrapped up in newspaper to take home. Both options are served with sliced tomatoes, red onions and chili pepper. All fresh.
In addition, extra spoonfuls of the dry spice rub are sprinkled over the meat or served on the side.
The July 2010 Daring Cooks' Challenge was hosted by Margie of More Please and Natashya of Living in the Kitchen with Puppies. They chose to challenge Daring Cooks to make their own nut butter from scratch, and use the nut butter in a savoury recipe (not a sweet dessert). Their sources include Better with Nut Butter by Cooking Light Magazine, Asian Noodles by Nina Simonds, and Food Network online.
I love peanut butter in sauces because the pack flavour as well as act as a thickner, for example when I make my peanut buttter chicken, I don't need to add cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Isn't that fab?
For the challenge, I chose to make peanut butter and use that, mixed with some spices as a wet rub for beef and thus, homemade suya. But not suya like I make in the winter months in the oven, this time real suya, cooked over smoky briquettes in my back garden. Note, this is a spicy recipe but, and that is a capital BUT, you can adjust the spices to suit you, just like Ka did when she made a chicken version – and she's Dutch! The sauce/paste can also be used on fish and veggies too……
In Nigeria, to keep peanuts fresh for as long as possible, they are sold in their skins after roasting, usually in little bags or in transparent glass bottles. When you want some, you cup a little in your hands, squeeze together to loosen the skin and then lightly blown the soft, brown skin away. That works for small portions only though. To skin a large batch, the services of a kitchen tray are employed.
Steady, ready hands rub the skins off and then those same hands grab either end of the tray and flip the peanuts up in the air, moving back and forth, while blowing. What happens is the peanuts collect on one side and the skins on another, which you get rid off. A few repeats later, the skins are almost all off and you have your peanuts to enjoy! Like other nuts which are high in fats, store in the fridge or deep freezer to keep from going rancid.
Peanut butter
Ingredients1/2 cup roasted unsalted peanuts, skinned
1/4 – 1/2 cup vegetable oil Pinch of salt
How to
In a blender or food processor, grind the peanuts till they are crushed.
The ground nuts will stick to the sides of the mixing container, so using a spatula, loosen bits from the bottom and round the sides.
Then add oil, drizzling in along with a pinch of salt, blending till you get your required consistency.
I wanted a loose butter so I added more oil, till it reached a 'thick cream' consistency.
Ingredients, makes a dozen skewers/sticks
1 teaspoon chili pepper 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon ground ginger 1 -2 tablespoons lime juice Fresh red onions, tomatoes and coriander leaves, to serve
- Its easier to slice the beef if you freeze it for an hour prior to use
- Adjust the spices to suit your taste, my measurements are just guides.
How to
Make the peanut paste by combining peanut butter, chili pepper, salt, ground ginger and lime.
Stir well {My 4 year old helped me stir}.
Adjust to taste and place beef slices in a large bowl . Pour peanut sauce over it, then using your hands, mix well ensuring the pieces of beef are coated with the sauce.
Leave to marinate for a few hours or overnight. I wanted to compare the taste of the suya using the peanut sauce versus the original suya spice (dry rub) and so I made two batches (and ended up with 2 dozen sticks, which are almost all gone!)
When ready to cook, thread them unto (soaked wooden) skewers, accordion style so the meat is stretched out, not bunched up.
You can grill them in a pan, the oven or on the barbeque. I've done all of the above but the most authentic method of course, is over the fire.
Heat up your grill….
Till the coals are red hot and have a layer of grey ash. Carefully place the skewers on an oiled grill rack.
Let cook for a few minutes, and then turn over and cook the other side. The sticks should be cooked in less than 10 minutes, depending on how thick your slices of meat are.
If they aren't ready after 10 minutes, and you should notice a change in colour, take them off direct heat and let them cook slowly.
L: Suya with dry rub; R: Suya with peanut sauce
Now, we had them almost immediately for dinner. Majority preferred the suya with peanut sauce to that with the spice rub – it was moister but funny enough was not as tender as the latter. I think my omitting paprika gave the peanut-sauced version a dull brown colour, compared with the overall reddish speckled appearance of the original. Overall, we ate almost all of them up!
While everyone was happy to have a food from 'home', my husband thought the beef wasn't as tasty as in Nigeria. Anyhow, I left some pieces for a photo shoot and then later, he tried them, as did I – we both agreed letting them rest for an hour or two was essential – they tasted much better but still, the beef doesn't taste like it would…..
I really enjoyed this month's Daring Cook challenge (see more on the Daring Kitchen), especially since I've spent the last few weeks eating better (and making various nut butters) in a bid to transform our lives into healthier ones. On this note, I say a big thank to our hostesses, Margie and Natashya.
Have you ever had suya? Do you make marinades with peanut sauces? What's your favourite meat or veggie on sticks?
August 25, 2012 at 3:18 AM
Thanks for posting the recipe for suya spice! I had almost given up my fruitless search. Do you have a method for making the peanut powder (I think it's called kuli kuli?)
July 22, 2011 at 11:10 PM
Drool. All over my laptop. I WILL be making this over the summer!
March 20, 2011 at 8:04 PM
Really enjoyed this blog love suya to bits, we have a few Suya joints here in london though. Has anyone tried Kilichi (dry suya} and 'cut' suya nice .
@ Hellen you can make kuli kuli with Crunchy peanut butter, some flour and ginger ( savoury) for sweet version add honey, sugar , dry fruits, coconut be creative . nice for snacking whilst blogging LOL
October 19, 2010 at 8:40 PM
This IS what I miss most about Nigeria! I loved going to the market, women braiding hair, many different aromas in the air…and SUYA!
September 18, 2010 at 2:56 PM
whaooo!! u really give me something here i eat suya everynow n den bt i never tot of making mine my self now i tink i no wat to do u are a great teacher n nice pics
September 9, 2010 at 2:39 PM
Looks really scrummy! How many people does the measurements you provide serve?
August 18, 2010 at 9:52 PM
Great article on suya! Made my mouth water too. Only discrepancy is that Nigerian beef is NOT anywhere close to Argentina beef. I lived there. Nigerian cows are pretty rangy with very little fat. But with the suya spices and cooking over an open fire, even the toughest beef is DELICIOUS!
August 18, 2010 at 9:16 PM
This is fantastic, and makes me want to make suya, or anything with peanuts. Do you know how to make kuli-kuli? That's one food I really miss from Nigeria.
August 4, 2010 at 6:06 PM
I have eaten suya in Mali, Cameroon and Guinea, (I've never been to Nigeria) and it is one of my favorite foods. Hot off the grill, you don't have to worry about getting sick. The meat is always "local" and the flavor is divine. Thanks for breaking it down.
July 31, 2010 at 2:44 AM
Thank you so much for the inspiration…I just tried it, using my own amounts of seasoning. We loved it! I am not sure how it would taste in Nigeria, but it was a wonderful new dish for us… which we really enjoyed. Thank you for sharing. ~Ellie
July 27, 2010 at 9:31 PM
Bon apetit Koken Vlinder! Good luck for tomorrow evening 😉

Hi, I am a "Chow & Chatter" follower and I saw your post there.
Congratulations on your fabulous work.
Great photos and recipes ♥
July 22, 2010 at 5:35 PM
beautiful photos! and what memories you have brought back for me- suya is a favourite and was a treat for us after our weekend swim. i absolutely adored it. and the malam used to give us a few tsps of the powder to dip the suya in. suya and jolloff rice are synonymous with Nigeria for me. ah, lovely days. love your recipe! x shayma
July 20, 2010 at 8:36 PM
Ozoz so u know what I will be having for dinner tonight???? You guessed right…Suya and garri…

July 20, 2010 at 10:42 PM
:-), Woman look I have ijebu garri so I'll have to do a repeat. Miss you!
July 20, 2010 at 5:33 PM
I saw this recipe on FoodGawker yesterday and made it for dinner last night. WOW is this delicious!
I used packaged, natural peanut butter and mashed ginger paste. My sauce turned out very thick, so I thinned it out using some coconut milk. I also cooked down the leftover marinade to make a "gravy" for rice, which turned out fantastic.
Thanks for the recipe, it's my family's new favorite!
July 20, 2010 at 10:42 PM
Oh yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Maseca, thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
July 19, 2010 at 7:37 AM
Posts like this remind me that no matter how many restaurants and dishes I try here in the US, I will only just scratch the surface of the wondrous foods available around the globe. This is the first I've learned of suya – how I'd love to have a taste!
Many thanks for an excellent and appetizing introduction to this dish!
July 20, 2010 at 10:41 PM
:-), thank you!
July 18, 2010 at 10:43 PM
Wonderful post, Oz! Reminds me a little of Malaysian satay. Loved the photos, particularly the one of the Malam cooking his suya over coals. One question, did you blow peanut skins all over your kitchen?
July 18, 2010 at 5:13 PM
A georgous recipe!!
Your grill is huge & lovely!! Grilling all the way!!
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM,..stunning & very appetizing pictures!!
July 20, 2010 at 10:41 PM
Thanks Norma, Sophie
Celia, my husband would have had me, so I was careful to blow them in the kitchen sink!
July 18, 2010 at 1:47 PM
In new York we have our street vendors that sell their "pinchos"
Your detailed posts always impress me
July 18, 2010 at 1:11 PM
Wow Oz your grill is huge! I'm jealous
This recipe sounds really exciting and I don't get easily excited. I'm going to try this for sure. Looks so so good!
July 20, 2010 at 10:40 PM
Oysterculture – yep, it has the hallmarks of satay….save for peanuts all wrapped around, versus on the side. Thanks
WIzzy, Let me know if it goes well. LOL
Rebecca dear, thanks. I'll send you some photos!
My little expat kitchen – don't be jealous dear, it was a gift from a great friend!
July 18, 2010 at 5:37 AM
oh wow I want a few now these look unbelievable tasty Ozoz would you consider letting me using the content and pictures on chow and chatter alot of folks read both of our blogs, but I have a weakness for cool street food and would love to share with any folks who should be reading over here!!
July 18, 2010 at 4:07 AM
Oh goodness. I'm going to have to hide this one from my husband he's ready to pull out the grill at the slightest provocation….ooops to late he's spotted it and is now rooting around the pantry for peanut butter. Lordy!
July 17, 2010 at 10:36 PM
This dish looks amazing and it reminds me of satay with the addition of peanuts. I cannot wait to try it.
July 17, 2010 at 4:20 PM
Love this great post. Your photos capture your story very well. Do you ever plan to return to Nigeria?
The suya look so good I wish I could have some right now!
July 20, 2010 at 10:38 PM
Jessica, thanks. I would ♥ to go back to Nigeria, especially with the eye for food I have now – it would be a great opportunity to showcase some of the finer points of 'Naija' but at the moment, I'm in the Netherlands for work!
July 17, 2010 at 11:16 AM
Another great post! I loved your take on this challenge. I'm going to have to try this when I have a real kitchen again. And I have to ask, how do you keep your photos so sharp – I'm assuming you've sized them for the web? Mine always look great in my editing program… until I try to resize them… hm.
July 20, 2010 at 10:35 PM
Shea, thanks. I tend to take all my food photos by my kitchen window where I have the best light. I also use my macro mode and I don't edit them…but then I take a lot and at the end of the day i have a handful I'm happy with. I upload them unto Flickr and when I incorporate them in a post, I have the option of various sizes – I guess Flickr does the resizing. Thank you.
July 17, 2010 at 9:27 AM
wow You have a huge grill! I love skewers prepared this way too.
July 20, 2010 at 10:34 PM
Chef Dennis, Thanks
Angie – blame my American friend for such a huge grill – she gave it to us when she was leaving and it was the first time I'd used it….It is huge but it was PERFECT for the suya because I could grill 2 dozen sticks in one go!
July 17, 2010 at 4:30 AM
your images are amazing!! your grilled beef looks delicious, what a wonderful sauce for this dish……a nice combination of spices for this flavorful dish!
July 16, 2010 at 9:23 PM
Ooh, I am absolutely ravenously hungry after reading this! Your writing is so evocative, and the photographs are beautiful. I've never tried cooking with peanut butter but I definitely will be soon.
July 20, 2010 at 10:32 PM
Shaz, Penny – this is almost like a satay save for the meat being marinaded in the peanut sauce vs being served on the side! Thanks.
Lyndsey, Margie – Thank you!
Racheal, thanks, you'd love cooking with peanut butter – it is rich and creamy and you don't have to use a large quantity.
July 16, 2010 at 8:28 PM
I miss SUYA!!! There is nothing better than eating good suya. Beautiful pictures luv! Wonderful description of good food from home. I am sooooooooooooooooooo hungry now.
July 16, 2010 at 6:40 PM
Thanks for the introduction to Nigerian Suya. I can't wait to try your recipe, your bbq'd beef on a stick looks seriously good! The peanut paste recipe sounds delicious with ginger & lime. I really enjoyed your post and learning about this traditional Nigerian dish.
July 16, 2010 at 4:42 PM
Yum! Nothing like meat on a stick. I love going to any festival and getting meat on a stick! I have been making my own nut butters for sometime now, because of my dad! My daughter always had to have grandpa's peanut butter. I like the almond butter. Anyhoo…this I have got to try! It looks so tasty and perfect for a summer treat! Thanks for such great photos!
July 16, 2010 at 3:14 PM
Suya is just like satay and we serve it with peanut sauce. Very interesting read
July 16, 2010 at 2:27 PM
SO many interesting things to read about here Ozoz. Suya looks so similar to the Asian satay (with different spices of course), and Malaysians call peanuts groundnuts too. As a kid, my job was to help de-skin the groundnuts, in exactly the method you described, we used a shallow bamboo tray instead of the kitchen tray. Wonderful post
July 16, 2010 at 10:08 AM
Absolutely fabulous, this is the most exciting post I've seen with these nut butters, that Getty images shot is awesome, I really want to try these now!
July 20, 2010 at 10:29 PM
Thanks Sarah G, the lacquer spoon and Sarah MC, I agree that Getty image is superb – it makes me want to buy a DSLR and go back home!
July 16, 2010 at 7:22 AM
Thanks for the lovely recipe! It looks like SE Asian satay, so maybe there've been food exchanges between them in history. As for something on sticks, I sometimes cook skewered Indian kofta
July 16, 2010 at 6:04 AM
What a fantastic post. I learned so much and would love to visit Nigeria and experience this. I love satays and these look similar. I will have to try them. Your pictures are wonderful, too.
July 16, 2010 at 5:32 AM
These pictures and these recipes remind me of my time spent in Africa…I would love to give this a try with some type of meat substitute
July 20, 2010 at 10:28 PM
Hi Monet, if you eat Tofu, you could try it, I'm sure it'd go great!
July 16, 2010 at 5:26 AM
This is the first time I've heard of Suya and it looks absolutely delectable. I love peanut sauces so I'm sure I'd love this, can't wait to try it.
July 20, 2010 at 10:28 PM
Thanks Cuppy, Audax and Rhonda!
July 16, 2010 at 5:13 AM
This is the first time I have read about suya and it's making me very hungry! it's very good that you have shared part of your culture through this recipe. I will definitely try this!
July 16, 2010 at 4:00 AM
Astonishing blog this is my first time visiting your blog and I'm so impressed with your photography skills (stunning) but it is your writing skills that jump from the page, your lyrically words really evoke strong mental images so so good. You make Nigeria sound so wonderful.
Suya is something I haven't hear of before it does look so delicious and the recipe is inspiring. Bravo on your efforts. Cheers from Audax Sydney Australia.
July 16, 2010 at 12:14 AM
Woohoo! Hooray for meat on a stick! 😀 😀 😀
I always love reading your posts, especially when you talk about Nigeria. Thank you so much for sharing with us!

Re: TF: Peaceable Kingdoms by Dayton Ward Review Thread (Spoilers!)
I completely agree. The concept itself is solid. I think all three conspiracies might have been a little too top heavy, but focusing on one or two of them and really giving them meat would have made for an excellent series.
Particularly because:
They are somewhat justified. I don't think their methods were right at all, but the idea that Starfleet might be a bit naive when dealing with other foreign powers? That's a compelling argument.
The same with Cardassian concerns about federation dogma taking over. Its ultimately a good thing, of course, but they're justified in their fears. I can't help but remember Eddington's comparison of the Federation to the borg.
The villains are wrong and the things they do are bad- but their motivations are coming from somewhere. Making them mustache twirling villains just feels like we missed out on some great moral dilemmas and characters.

Each Bankhead family and branch thereof is assigned to its own subgroup at http://www.familytreedna.com/public/bankhead/default.aspx?section=yresults
Whether or not you have had your DNA tested, you can upload your GEDCOM to http://www.gedmatch.com/ , and have a link to your Bankhead lineage added to the list below by emailing it to the administrator of this Bankhead project.
1) #143035 Pedigree / Surname Project
SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springside,_Ayrshire
"The earliest recording of the Bankhead surname is from 1527 in Riccarton parish.... There are many references to the family in Kilmaurs / Kilwinning / Irvine in 16th and 17th-centuries. The Bankends (sic) seem to have spread originally from Ayrshire to Northern Ireland in the 17th and 18th-Centuries, with some most likely returning in the 19th-century. Documents in the National Archives showing the Springside 'lands of Bankhead' date back at least as far as 1512. Bankhead is of course an exceedingly common Scottish place name in its purely descriptive context, however it is a most uncommon surname."
SOURCE: http://www.houseofnames.com/xq/asp.fc/qx/bankhead-family-crest.htm
"In ancient Scotland, the first people to use Bankhead as a surname were the Strathclyde-Britons of the Scottish/English Borderlands. The original bearer of the surname lived in Ayrshire, where the family was found since the early Middle Ages... spelling variations are extremely common among early Scottish names. Bankhead has been spelled Bankhead, Bankheid and others... First found in Ayrshire, where they held a family seat from ancient times.... Many Strathclyde families settled on the east coast of North America... James BANKHEAD settled in New Hampshire in 1718; Thomas BANKHEAD settled in Philadelphia Pa. in 1847; James BANKHEED settled in Charles Town, S.C."
An interactive chart that shows the census distribution of Bankhead Families in the US in 1840, 1880 and 1920 is at http://www.ancestry.com/facts/bankhead-family-history.ashx
According to the web page at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~pamrob/fam6590.html , "The earliest mention of the name BANKHEAD in America was a 1718 petition to Governor Shute 'of Boston New England'. James BANKHEAD and some Scotch-Irishmen requested permission to settle in his colony. This James BANKHEAD returned to Scotland and died before 1780. Hugh BANKHEAD of Ireland (Ireland had not yet been divided) may have been his father. Both left wills in 1718. The will of Hugh BANKHEAD was proved in 1719" (see letter of Dennis R. LEE below).
Three of this James BANKHEAD's sons named their sons James BANKHEAD:
1) Robert BANKHEAD - His son James BANKHEAD married Mary HATFIELD
2) John BANKHEAD - He died in Union County, SC in 1805. His son James BANKHEAD married Elizabeth McGARITY.
3) Hugh BANKHEAD I of Hartford County, MD. He was born in 1720 and died in December 1769. His son James BANKHEAD married Elizabeth BLACK. He is the ancestor of Tallulah BANKHEAD and the Bankheads of Stover, SC. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tallulah_Bankhead .
4) James BANKHEAD - He married Elinor MONROE in 1735 (Virginia Line of Bankheads, married into President Thomas Jefferson's family).
Headstone inscriptions that were collected from across 42 historic graveyards in the Borough of Ballymena in Northern Ireland can be found via the web page at http://www.thebraid.com/genealogy.aspx . The results of a search for the name of Bankhead are shown in the table below.
Stewart copied Mr. Dennis R. LEE's 02/24/2001 letter below from the web page at http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=jbstowe&id=I0519
Hello to xxxxx,
This will be a little long; but it will give you some background on how I come to believe the family structure I have is probably correct.
I got my information on the early Bankhead lines about 1987 from Mrs. Loudie Moffatt, a professional genealogist of Austin, TX.
Mrs. Moffatt became interested in the Bankhead history while doing research for a Bankhead family (from CA I think).
She became so interested in the family that she prepared a draft of a book which she tentatively entitled "Westward from South Carolina - A History of the Bankheads".
She tried to get financial backing to publish the book by contacting Bankhead families over the country. She was unable to amass enough money to publish... and returned all the money she had collected.
I bought some of the material from her...and started my Bankhead research from those roots. She has since died, as has her husband, and I have been unable to contact any of the family. I really would like to have all those files and photos.
Mrs. Moffatt's story followed the history of four James Bankheads here in America. She numbered them #1 on through #4...so keep that in mind as I give you some quotes from her records. #4 was the son of her original James, and 1, 2 and 3 were his (#4's) nephews, sons of his brothers.
The following are excerpts from her records:
'The earliest mention of the name BANKHEAD in America was a 1718 petition to Governor Shute "of Boston New England" by a group of Scotch-Irish requesting permission to settle in his colony, among them was a JAMES BANKHEAD. Extensive research on my part, as well as by a number of prominent New England genealogists since 1920, have failed to show that this man remained in America.
Matt Bankhead of Edinburgh, who was born in Northern Ireland, has developed a theory through his research that this JAMES BANKHEAD may have been the son of HUGH BANKHEAD of Ireland, both of whom left wills in 1718, thus suggesting to him the possibility of a hazardous trip or some such that year. The father's (Hugh) will was proved in 1719. ...
Now I know that James Bankhead #1's father was the man I call "HUGH 1" for he, his son James (1742-1798), and James' father-in-law Robert Black, all paid their annual stipend to the Presbyterian Minister in Hartford County, MD in December 1769. But we do know that JAMES #1 and his wife, Elizabeth Black, were back in Scotland by 1772 when their son HUGH was born. Elizabeth Black Bankhead's grandfather was a prominent merchant in NC and VA. The family traditions of several branches of the family say that William Black, a noted "Scottish Merchant of Edinburgh", had left Scotland with a fleet of ships for Ireland, carrying his family, other relatives, his slaves and household goods, cattle, etc, where he sojourned for a number of years before continuing on to America".
....In searching out the four contemporaneous American Bankheads, I have the (unproved) theory that the JAMES BANKHEAD of the 1718 petition and will just may have had sons:
JAMES, who in 1735 married Elinor Monroe of Virginia (my JAMES #4);
HUGH I of Hartford County, MD who died in December 1769; [JAMES #1]<1742-1798>
JOHN "of Scotland", whose son JAMES #2 died in Union County, SC in 1805;
and ROBERT, whose son JAMES #3 left Belfast, Ireland in November 1767 aboard the "Betty Gregg", also called the "Snow", bound for Charles Town, SC.'
Stewart's note: a snow is a kind of ship.

Re: WEIR: Ahoghill Ballymena area, Co Antrim.
The Bankheads and Weirs in Ahoghill were neighbours and intermarriage often took place (many of my uncles had Weir as a middle name)....
Did the James BANKHEAD who married Mary HATFIELD emigrate from Ahoghill, Ireland?
By Stewart
The monument shown on the right in the photograph of the church below displays the names of John (d. 1806) and James BANKHEAD (d. 1821) and other rebels who fought for Independence from England's Empire. Catholic PRESBYTERIAN Church was established in Chester County, South Carolina about 1770. It's Scotch-Irish preachers helped incite hatred against king George III.
On July 4, 2000, Mr. Dennis LEE wrote to me that:
1) his wife Margie is a descendant of Mary HATFIELD and James BANKHEAD. James and his first cousin John Bankhead are named on the aforesaid monument.
2) John lived in Chester County but the rest of his family lived on the other side of Broad River in Union County.
3) John's brother James BANKHEAD married Mary McGarity.
Jane, the daughter of Mary HATFIELD and James BANKHEAD married Robert, the son of SC militiaman James STEWART and his wife Rosannah (WHITE?). The Stewarts and Whites are said to have come from near the small village of Broughshane, about six miles to the east of the aforesaid Bankheads of Ahoghill, Ireland. In 1767 Rose and James received a 150-acre royal land grant a few miles south of Old Catholic and about 200 meters northwest of where Stover Creek and the Chester and Fairfield County boundaries now intersect. Descendants of Elizabeth BLACK and James BANKHEAD still live in the Stover community.
Since none of these Presbyterians owned a slave, they and their children had to work like slaves in order to compete with slave owners like William Ellison in the market place.
By Stewart
One wing of CORNWALLIS' army was utterly defeated on October 7, 1780 at the "Battle of Kings Mountain", SC. The only non-American who fought there was a Scotsman named Patrick FERGUSON. He was shot off his horse on the part of the battlefield where the soldiers of Gaston County, NC fought under the command of my ancestor Lieutenant Colonel Hambrecht (born in 1726 in Germany). HAMBRIGHT's name is inscribed in large letters on a large plaque on the right (southern) side of the obelisk shown in the picture below. That plaque is visible above the head of the man on the right in the foreground. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kings_Mountain_National_Military_Park . Its approximate coordinates are 35.137778, -81.392222. Click on Google Maps at http://stable.toolserver.org/geohack/geohack.php?params=35_8_16_N_81_23_22_W .
TARLETON was decisively defeated at the Battle of Cowpens SC on January 17, 1781 by American General Daniel MORGAN (c. 1736 – July 6 1802). One of his patrilineal descendants is a kind policeman in Columbia, SC. Stewart's ancestor Michael MARTIN fought under General Morgan's command. He named my gggGpa Morgan MARTIN (senior) after him. General Morgan's cunning plan at Cowpens is widely considered to be the tactical masterpiece of the war and one of the most successfully executed double envelopments of all of modern military history. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cowpens .
Historians have estimated that approximately 40-45% of the colonists actively supported the rebellion against the government of the German House of Hanover. Almost all of the loyalist and rebel troops were Americans, about one third of them from Germany. SC won its first war against imperialism and lost its second.
All families of the prosperous Old South may have ancestors like these. Let's not forget them and their deeds, graves, etc.

text: anti-discrimination With Recent Pregnancy Discrimination Ruling, Will Fla. Legislature Take Next Step? By Sascha Cordner • Apr 18, 2014 Andrew Bret Wallis / Getty Images Today, there's no Florida law on the books to protect pregnant women from workplace discrimination. For months, the Florida Supreme Court grappled with that decision, and Thursday, they ruled employers can't discriminate against pregnant women under the state's civil rights act. But, one lawmaker says that still needs to be codified in state law. For more than 30 years, pregnancy has been protected from employer discrimination under federal law. But, in the Sunshine state, it's a different story. Despite Fla. Business Community Push, Gay Discrimination Ban Fails Again By Jessica Palombo • Apr 17, 2014 Jessica Palombo / WFSU News One Florida bill bars employers from discriminating against people who are gay or transgendered. But despite strong business community support, it never saw the light of debate this year. The chances of passing the Florida Competitive Workforce Act were promising by several measures. First, it has bi-partisan sponsorship. Then there's broad public support, according to a 2013 public opinion survey. Pregnancy Discrimination Bill Progressing; Gay-Rights Bills Yet To Be Heard By Jessica Palombo • Feb 21, 2014 Serena Epstein via Flickr Bills before the Legislature this session are aimed at ending discrimination against pregnant women and LGBT people. The measures are among several aimed at fairness and equality—but the biggest hurdle for some of them may be getting a first hearing. Committees in both chambers have passed one bill with little debate or opposition. It would add pregnant women to the protected classes covered under Florida's Civil Rights Act. When the same measure didn't pass last year, Lori Berman (D-Lantana) told reporters she'd be sponsoring it again. Pregnancy Discrimination Case Lands In Fla. Supreme Court By Ryan Benk • Nov 7, 2013 Flickr Creative Commons Just a day after a pair of Democratic lawmakers announced they were filing bills to make pregnancy discrimination illegal, Florida's Supreme Court took up the issue Thursday. Sponsors Confident About Passage Of Fla. Bill Banning LGBT Discrimination By Jessica Palombo • Nov 5, 2013 Holly Raschein via Twitter As the U.S. Senate prepares to pass a bill banning discrimination against gay and transgendered workers, a similar piece of legislation has been filed by Florida lawmakers. The bill has failed many times before in Florida, but sponsors insist this year is different. Florida law already prohibits employers, landlords and providers of goods and services from discriminating against someone or harassing them because of their race, religion or other attributes. The bill adds gender identity and sexual orientation to that list. Pages1 2 next › last »

Functions, Graphs, and Limits
Limits of Functions at Infinity
When we find the limit of a function f(x) as x goes to infinity, we're answering the question "What value is f(x) approaching as x gets bigger and bigger and bigger...?''
A rockin' example of this is
As x gets bigger and bigger, gets closer and closer to zero. We can get a feel for this by making a table:
Since is approaching 0 as x gets larger,
This makes sense on the graph, since the bigger x gets, or the more negative x gets, the closer y gets to zero:
Graph of :
If we had some other constant in the numerator besides 1, the limit would still be 0. We would still be dividing a constant by larger and larger numbers. Therefore,
In fact, whenever we have a rational function f(x) where the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator,
Sometimes the limit of a function as x goes to ∞ is undefined.

DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan (AP) -- Pakistani intelligence officials say two suspected U.S. missile strikes close to the Afghan border have killed three people.
The officials say the strikes took place Friday in two villages in North Waziristan.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
The United States has launched a flurry of strikes against suspected al-Qaida and Taliban targets in North and South Waziristan in recent weeks.
A Pakistani military spokesman said he was not immediately able to comment on the suspected strikes.

White bass are native to the river, with adults traveling in schools and feeding near the surface. Bream, crappie, and largemouth bass are stocked in the lake and provide excellent sport fishing. Arkansas Game and Fish Commission studies of bass tournaments across the state revealed that Lake Dardanelle is the most productive bass fishery in the state of Arkansas. With no closed season and mild winters, fishing is good year round. Located near the Ozark and Ouachita National Forests, the area has an abundance of wildlife. There is in-season hunting for deer, turkey, water fowl and other small game. The success rate of the growing Canada Goose Season is proof of the excellent breeding ground the lake and river provides. [Lake Dardanelle. www.nwk.usace.army.mil, 02/03/2008]...turtles.

Remember Me
The 24-year old Monroe Township native is able to create a multifaceted sound by using a loop sampling pedal with his Martin DX1 acoustic-electric guitar, which he fondly calls "Martina." The percussion sound comes from Kenny drumming on his guitar, which is equipped with a pickup to amplify the sound.
A good portion of his concerts consist of improvisation. "It's all about the moment," Kenny said. "I want people to feel like if they didn't come to the show last night, they missed something that's not going to happen again."
Kenny's roots as a musician date back to days of jamming with his father at the age of 11. Today, they still play together, though it sometimes takes a little coaxing on the younger Kenny's part. Kenny remains impressed with his Dad's musical talent, and his ability to improvise lyrics during their jam sessions. "Those are usually the best times that I have," Kenny said.
As Kenny grew up, his musical influences changed over time, which is why his sound does not fit neatly into any one category. One can hear traces of his childhood heavy metal tastes, along with stylings of Michael Hedges in his finger-style guitar and acoustic percussion. He also noted influence from musicians of the 1960s and '70s, like Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young. His most recent musical role model is blues man Reverend Gary Davis. "He just sings his soul out," Kenny said.
Kenny's fans might say the same about him as they hear him belt out his emotionally charged original tunes. He said playing music is therapeutic for him, and he often derives different sounds from different moods he experiences. "Basically, it's like my only outlet," Kenny said. "What I'm really going for is, I'm trying to portray different experiences I've had in my life in my music."
Kenny and "Martina" make appearances all over the state and beyond. He has been featured on NJ 101.5 with the Jersey Guys and has also appeared on Sports Radio 66 with Boomer Esiason & Craig Carton. Kenny recently won an Asbury Music Award for "Top Male Acoustic Act" and has been nominated for several other awards in previous years. Venues he's played at include The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, CBGB's in NYC, The Whiskey Bar in Hoboken, The 2008 Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim CA, and The World Café Live in Philadelphia.
In the Fall of 2007, Kenny began recording his first full-length album entitled "Limit is the Sky" in which he is joined by musicians Tyler Chiara and Jonathon Luberecki. When the album was released in June of 2008, the power trio hit the stage in front of a packed house at The Saint in Asbury Park. Since then the album has received several rave reviews and has been sold worldwide. Kenny is currently planning a solo acoustic tour of the east coast for the summer of 2009. Don't be surprised if this one man band rolls up to your hometown…

Williams Sisters Use Their Star Power to Promote Women's Rights in Nigeria
After winning the WTA championships in Istanbul, Venus and Serena Williams are taking a tour of Nigeria, which ranks 118 out of 134 countries on the Gender Equality Index. On their trip, the ladies will meet the governor of Lagos, hold a tennis clinic in an exclusive club, and visit a health class for girls. They aim to "encourage more women to break the molds" that keep them from reaching their full potential.

ClassicsOnline Home » BACH, J.S.: Motets, BWV 225-230 (The Bach Sinfonia, Abraham) > Review List
This latest release from Bach Sinfonia, the Washington, DC, ensemble directed by Daniel Abraham, has taken on a mighty challenge: the entirely of the Bach motets. They have emerged victorious indeed.
Admittedly, the label "motet" is a bit looser of these works than for others. The detailed, technical liner notes give clues not only to the individual pieces' context, but also to their musical construction, providing insight into how these works fit into the German motet tradition. Of the seven motets presented here, three are of a more traditional bent ("Der Geist hilft under Schwachheit auf," "Fürchte dich nicth, ich bin bei dir," and "Ich lasse dich nicht"), while four ("Komm, Jesu, komm," "Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied," "Jesu, meine Freude," and "Lobet cen Herrn, alle Heiden") exhibit traits unusual to the typical German motet of the time. Abraham has wisely chosen to alternate them on the disc, thereby creating a sense of variety. The recording concludes with two choral settings associated with, but not necessarily belonging to, two of the motets.
The ensemble is recognized for its exceptional attention to detail, especially where articulation is concerned. One almost does not need the text, so clear is each voice part. The German sounds native, with delightful inflection and phrasing, even (especially?) in the heavily contrapuntal fugal sections. They have a delightfully rich sound, which manages at once to be warm, inviting, and crystal clear. The entire ensemble is especially well-balanced; kudos to both the ensemble and the disc's recording engineers.
The beautiful counterpoint in the chorus of "Komm, Jesu, Komm," with its soprano line soaring over the moving lower voices, the chorale in "Fürchte dich nicht," the lightness in the fugal ending of "Ich lasse dich nicht," the concluding Alleluja of " Lobet den Herrn"—all are absolutely glorious moments on this recording. My first encounter with Bach's motets as a performer was through his "Jesu, meine Freude," and it will always have special resonance for me. It's a stunning motet that contains perhaps my favorite moving-bass-line-cum-melody in its "Gute Nacht, o Wesen," which is an absolute standout on the recording thanks to the stellar blend, diction, and emotive singing of the soprano, alto, and tenor concertists.
There is a beautiful uniformity of purpose in this recording; every person in the ensemble is of one musical mind, executing turns of phrase, dynamic contrasts, cadential tension, and relaxation with an almost surreal single-minded approach, allowing the music to unfold like some grand Bach-ian teleology. There simply is no down side to anything on the recording, no moments to nitpick about, no choices to regret.

Sandra Day O'Connor: Back On The Bench!
Maybe former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor just got sick of arguing with Scalia when she decided to quit her lifetime appointment in 2005. Clearly she didn't step aside because she didn't like being a judge! At 78, no one would knock O'Connor for spending more time on the links, but instead, last week, O'Connor made news in Boston when she not only heard an appeal in a federal money-laundering case, but wrote the opinion, too. Oddly enough, her ruling now allows federal prosecutors to proceed with a case against the only Republican running to fill a state legislative seat being vacated by a Democrat. (You can read more about the case here.) Even in retirement, it seems, O'Connor is redefining "judicial independence."

McCarthy, David D., Turner, John A., Journal of Risk and Insurance
Risk Classification and Statistical Discrimination
How do I know you will be a favorable juror, a long-term employee, a successful student, a profitable insurance or credit risk, or a responsible tenant? People are heterogeneous in their risk characteristics, and information about them is imperfect. One way to classify people in terms of risk is to use information about average risks for identifiable groups, a practice called statistical discrimination because the generalizations may be false for many individuals. While the U.S. federal government recognizes the validity of this practice for some individual characteristics--such as years of schooling completed--it prohibits statistical discrimination for other characteristics--such as race and religion--to protect demographic groups that have historically been discriminated against.
Government efforts to prohibit statistical discrimination have extended also to regulation of risk classification by sex. In 1978 and again in 1983, the U.S. Supreme Court issued decisions based on the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibit pension plans from using separate mortality tables for men and women to determine contributions and benefits (Los Angeles Department of Water and Power v. Manhart, 435 U.S. 702 |1978~ and Arizona Governing Committee v. Norris, 51 U.S.L.W. 5243 |July 6, 1983~). Women, in general, outlive men so they receive pension benefits over a longer period of time. The Court argued that using separate mortality tables causes discrimination against women because they would receive lower annual benefits or pay more for equal benefits than men with identical work histories. In Los Angeles Department of Water and Power v. Manhart, the Supreme Court ruled that employers cannot require women to make larger contributions to a pension plan in order to receive the same monthly benefits as similarly situated men. In Arizona Governing Committee v. Norris, the Supreme Court ruled that women cannot receive lower monthly benefits than men who had made the same contributions.
The Supreme Court's rulings are now part of a larger body of regulation and law governing sex-based risk classification. In 1986, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission broadened the Supreme Court's prohibition by forbidding sex-based differences in any employee benefit, even if justified by differences in cost. Actuarial risk classification by sex is prohibited in Montana and Massachusetts by laws requiring unisex insurance for automobile, life, disability, health and in six other states by laws requiring unisex rates for automobile insurance. The Congress and various state legislatures have considered bills expanding the requirement of unisex risk classification, and the issue continues to be litigated. A June 1990 ruling of the European Court of Justice prohibited sex-based differences in pension benefits throughout the twelve-nation European Community.
Economists have analyzed the effects of sex-based risk classification on efficiency and behavior (Crocker and Snow, 1986; Rea, 1987) but generally have not analyzed the discriminatory effects of such practice (see Goldberger, 1984; Cummins et al., 1983; and Aigner and Cain, 1977, for related analyses of sex discrimination in wages or governmental regulation of risk classification in insurance). This article examines the discriminatory effects of sex-based risk classification in the case of deferred pension compensation. Although we do not address the legal basis of the Supreme Court's 1978 and 1983 decisions, we analyze whether the application of the 1964 Civil Rights Act in those decisions alleviates economic discrimination against women (see Lautzenheiser, 1976; King, 1976; Benston, 1982; Burkhauser, 1984; and Connerton, 1983, for discussions relating to the unisex pension decisions).
Risk Assessment
Although sex-based mortality tables can no longer be used to calculate pension benefits, they are still commonly used by actuaries to value pension liabilities. …

How do I change the oil pump on my 1600 automatic plese

Why do you need to change the oil pump? It is not a maintenance item and would be one of the last component likely to fail.
The timing belt/chain and oils sump has to be removed to replace the oil pump and is not a normal DIY job.

Rescued 4 Abandoned Kittens
My boyfriends mom found 4 abandoned kittens in a muddy hole yesterday behind her mothers house (where there are lots of feral cats) She brought them home, and now I have taken them in, they're cute and we've estimated them to be about a week old, so they're really really young! Anyone have experience with hand raising kittens? Any advice would be very appreciated
here are some good pictures of the kittens! They're doing good so far, eating really well, they're going to the vet on Monday at 10:40, to get a full check up.
Black Magic (mine)
Ziggy (Boyfriends)
Hope (Boyfriends Brothers)
Oreo (Boyfriends counsins)
Kittens hanging out
Rocky their guardian!
Yes, I have helped raise lots of kittens. Back home, my Parents own 40 acres and that was prime land for peope who wanted to dump their animals off. Leaving their responsibilites to my Father, Mother and I.
The most popular dumped off pet, were cats. My family and I spent years cleaning up our property by bringing in Ferral cats *that once were lovely house pets, turned wild* and their kittens and offspring.
I've brought in so many litters, it's rediculous. My Bedroom was the "Nursery".
Good for you for bringin in these helpless babies, I applaud you and you did a very good thing. What pisses me off, are people who have pets and don't bother getting them spayed or neutered - if you cannot afford to do that, you cannot afford to own a pet. Animals are a priveledge, not a right.
I assume their eyes are closed? Looks like it. You are going to have to buy milk formulated specifically for kittens who do not have mothers. Do NOT give them cow milk. Get to your vet if you can, and buy the powedered substance or the canned liquid substance, and you'll have to bottle feed them. Feed them every half an hour, to an hour.
You also have to make them go potty. Take a warm hand towel or a q-tip wet with warm water, and rub it over their genetalia until they urinate, do the same to make them poop. That is how their mothers would get their babies to do the same, by licking them until they did their job.
Keep them warm. If you have bean bags that you can microwave, or a heated blanket that plugs in - doesn't matter, they have to be kept warm or they will get sick.
That's all you'll beable to do for now, until their eyes open and they are moving around on their own. At that point in time, buy baby pablum - the powdered type. Mix it with warm water and mix it up. It'll become a mush, and then they can start eating that - sometimes it'll take time to incorporate that type of feed, from the bottle.
Once their eyes are opened and moving around on their own, that's the time to teach them the litter box, and get them toys.
Your vet will beable to help you out and good for you for getting them the medical attention.
**HUGS** you're doing a very good thing!
MIE already gave great advice, so I will just a big AWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

When you look at a company like Beyerdynamic, you should notice the fact that they still make replacement ear cushions/ear pads for headphones they were making years and years ago. Why in their right mind would a manufacturer do that you ask? Its because Beyerdynamic headphones are built to last! Beyerdynamic continues to build many of their headphones in their own factory in Germany. When a person buys a Beyerdynamic headphone, they are making a long term investment. An investment that will prove to pay off. It is a good sign when a manufacturer has earpads available for their full assortment, especially when their name is Beyerdynamic. May you listen on for years to come, and listen proud!

Emmaus, PA
February 21, 2014
We use Beyerdynamic DT 770 headsets exclusively in our broadcast operations. They experience very heavy usage - the announcers probably put them on and take them off 100 times per live 3-hour airshift.
While the construction of this headset is rugged, the ear pads and foam discs that cover the transducers eventually become worn. The EDT 770 V Replacement Silver Velour Ear Pads/Ear Cushions restore them to like-new cosmetic condition. Since the introduction of the DT 770, we've never had a transducer fail, so with new pads, the headphones just keep going and going.
The cost of the genuine Beyerdynamic Ear Pads is a little on the high side, but the under ten-dollar knock-offs from Asia are of terrible quality, and don't last very long.
Installation of the replacement pads is somewhat of a challenge. The instructions recommend gently warming them with a hair dyrer to make them more pliable. Our Engineering Department definitely advises that this procedure be followed; otherwise it's possible to damage the thin plastic material as it's being fit over the headphone housing. Sharp tools like "Greenie" screwdrivers should not be used. Once the pad is heated and becomes very flexible, it can be "worked" onto the rim of each headphone until it's in the correct position.
We would highly recommend this product to restore the cosmetic appearance of the DT 770 headset.

XC shorts that ride anywhere.
If you spend enough time on the trails, chances are you'll 'graduate' to baggies at some point. Pearl Izumi's Women's Canyon Shorts are the go-anywhere short. The flattering cut belies the fact that you're even wearing a chamois liner.
Cut from soft Transfer fabric which has a light stretch, the Canyon shorts give you freedom of movement to pedal hard and move about the saddle. The fabric is designed to draw moisture toward to outside so that it is quickly evaporated. Sewn from a breathable mesh, the detachable liner was built around the women's MTB 3D chamois. This multi-density insert provides support and cushioning so that the trail is a little less rough. The shorts are secured with a snap-front closure and an adjustable interior waistband.
The Pearl Izumi Canyon Shorts - Women's are available in six sizes from X-Small to XX-Large and in the color Black.
