Cinnamon – an Extraordinary Spice
Cinnamon can be substituted for foods we shouldn’t eat too much of, like sugar.
It not only smells divine, tastes great (can be used to sweeten foods) but it is also good for you. It is the most widely researched spice, with Cinnamomum zeylanicum, also known as Ceylon cinnamon being the safest form to use regularly as part of the diet. Many health benefits have been reported.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
