Proudlyngwa: so far we have more guitar than drum beats no problem
Jazz.
naptu2: Of course this thread can not be complete without a bit of Spyro Gyra. We had the vinyl album (bought in 1979), but I wasn't interested in it until the mid 1980s.
Then DBN Television made a lot of the songs popular in the mid and late 1990s because they used them in their adverts and idents.
Proudlyngwa: My own has passed 500 since yesterday.
Abeg I need your help.
Can you suggest some cool contemporary classical, I can use in a bar I intend opening and do you have any idea of cocktails that can be mixed and go well in Naija here, I mean cocktails that it is possible to get their ingredients from here
If u are a lady like me, I would have taken you deep into the various types of smoky jollof rice we have in Nigeria. Party jollof rice is just one of them and on the level of smokines, I will take the other two first. All don't have anything to do with firewood.
I agree firewood can give off smoky flavour. But we can get smoky flavour without using firewood.
You can fry your dry rice first before cooking. No be only us dey cook Smokey jollof rice. It's a very popular cuisine.
sassysure: That's what I mean na For me to get that Smokey flavour, my tomatoes are burnt, garlic and ginger, name them. They will cook and dry then burn. When u remove them from the oven, that Smokey flavour is already achieved 100% more. I don't use tomatoes paste. Assorted red pepper to give that classic red look.
Why I posted this is that there are many ways to the go to the stream. Many ways to get that smokines. Also, one can use liquid smoke( sold in supermarkets). That's another way
At the end of the day, we are all looking for the Smokey favour .
You are referring to a burnt flavour, I am not referring to a burnt flavour at all. I am referring to wood smoke. You probably don't understand what I'm referring to. It doesn't taste burnt at all. Do you know that the type of wood you use can also change the flavour of the food? Different types of wood produce different flavours.
sassysure: I get the burnt taste and smell when I toss my fresh tomatoes, garlic, ginger, onions, pepper of choice and green onions inside oven for not less than an hour. They will dry and burn a little. Blend all together and the smokey flavour is achieved. No need burning my pot. This method gives me the desired result more.
I'm not referring to a "burnt taste". I'm referring to a smoke flavour. Particularly a blue smoke flavour.
Treasury Sanctions Nigerian Cyber Actors for Targeting U.S. Businesses and Individuals
June 16, 2020
WASHINGTON – Today, in a coordinated action with the U.S. Department of Justice, the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) took action against six Nigerian nationals for conducting an elaborate scheme to steal over six million dollars from victims across the United States. The individuals designated today targeted U.S. businesses and individuals through deceptive global threats known as business email compromise (BEC) and romance fraud. American citizens lost over $6,000,000 due to these individuals’ BEC fraud schemes, in which they impersonated business executives and requested and received wire transfers from legitimate business accounts. Money was also stolen from innocent Americans by romance fraud, in which the designees masqueraded as affectionate partners to gain trust from victims.
“Cybercriminals prey on vulnerable Americans and small businesses to deceive and defraud them,” said Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin. “As technological advancement increasingly offers malicious actors tools that can be used for online attacks and schemes, the United States will continue to protect and defend at-risk Americans and businesses.”
Malicious actors are exploiting the increased availability of online tools and technology to target at-risk Americans. The six individuals designated today manipulated their victims in order to gain access to usernames, passwords, and bank accounts in furtherance of the scheme. Several of those who engaged in romance fraud used online tools, including social media and email, to further their social engineering tactics.
OFAC closely coordinated with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), which today released details regarding its indictment against members of the conspiracy. The FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) receives romance fraud victim reports from all ages, education, and income brackets. However, the elderly, women, and those who have lost a spouse are often targeted.
E.O. 13694 SANCTIONS
Today’s action includes the designation of six individuals pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13694, as amended by E.O. 13757, which targets malicious cyber-enabled activities, including those related to the significant misappropriation of funds or economic resources for private financial gain.
As a result of today’s action, all property and interests in property of the designated persons that are in the possession or control of U.S. persons or within or transiting the United States are blocked, and U.S. persons generally are prohibited from dealing with them.
The US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo today issued a statement about Nigerian fraudsters. Some people are speculating that he was referring to Hushpuppi and his friends.

JUNE 16, 2020
Technological advancements that provide greater interconnectivity also offer greater opportunity for exploitation by malicious actors who target at-risk Americans. Today, in coordination with the U.S. Department of Justice, the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control took action against six Nigerian nationals, pursuant to Executive Order 13694 as amended, for conducting an elaborate online scheme to steal more than $6 million from victims across the United States.
The six individuals designated today manipulated their victims to gain access to their sensitive information and financial resources. The U.S. will not tolerate such gross misuse of technology. The United States will use all of the tools at our disposal to defend the American people and businesses from malign actors that seek to target them, including cyber-enabled actors who prey on vulnerable Americans and businesses.
