1  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / ACCRA: Makola Market (No.2) Goes Up In Flames on: 29-03-2014 11:55 AM

According to what i gathered from High Street Mail, Makola No. 2 Market, also known as the Aflao station at Tudu near the State Transport Yard was razed down by fire at dawn on
Friday.

The fire, which started around 0430 hours, has destroyed goods worth thousands of cedis but the cause of the fire is yet to be determined.

Brigadier General John Bosco Emawin Guyiri, Acting Chief Fire Officer, told journalists that the Fire Service received the information around 0515 hours that there was fire outbreak at the STC Yard.

He said 35 fire men were sent to the place but they were unable to put off the fire early due to lack of water.

The Acting Chief Fire Officer said they have been told by the Ghana Water Company Limited that there would be no water on Friday so the fire men had to go to 37 Military Hospital area and its environs for water to put off the fire which made the work difficult.

He said even though the cause of the fire was yet to be determined, they found exploded cylinders at the place which could be attributed to the cause.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Christian Tetteh Yohunu, the Greater Accra Regional Police Commander, said police were deployed to the place to help the fire men work without any disturbances from people around.

He said investigators are on the ground looking into the cause of the fire.

The Accra Regional Police Command on March 25 detained a woman on suspicion of attempting to burn down some stores at the Makola market.

She was seen by security persons at the market sprinkling what looked like kerosene on some stores at 0200 hours and was immediately apprehended.

The security men later handed her over to the police on suspicion that whe was mentally unstable and has been referred to the Accra Psychiatric Hospital for examination.

2  Forum / Technology / Cupcake machine opens in New York to satisfy 24-hour cravings on: 27-03-2014 09:48 PM

New Yorkers, who live in the city that famously never sleeps, now can satisfy their craving for cupcakes in any of those endless waking hours.

A 24-hour vending machine that dispenses gourmet cupcakes opened for business this
week on Manhattan's Upper East Side, and locals are lining up despite the wintry temperatures for a taste.

"It's so fun," said Melissa Martelli, a schoolteacher and neighborhood resident as she nibbled on a cinnamon sugar cupcake she bought from the machine. "You could just go in the store and wait on line, but it's just so cool."

Despite the Sprinkles cupcake store connected to the ATM, and the city's abundance of all-night delis and convenience stores, customers said the ATM has novelty appeal.

"It's the experience of buying a cupcake from an ATM. It's an incredible concept," said Amy Benaderet, a financial services account manager who lives nearby. "You can get money at any time. Now you can get cupcakes at any time."

"It'll be interesting to see if the novelty wears off," she added.

At a price of $4.25 apiece, the cupcake choices include chocolate, coconut, red velvet, vanilla and lemon meringue.

"It's cool, especially if you live around here and it's like the middle of the night and you really want a cupcake. I would so do that," said Margarita Mazur, who works at a local tech startup.

The nine-year-old company behind the machine, Sprinkles, also has installed cupcake machines in Las Vegas, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta and Beverly Hills, California, where the company is based, and plans to expand into Houston and Washington, D.C.

The New York model holds 760 cupcakes and sells up to four at a time, making it larger than the company's other machines.

But not every New Yorker has caught the sugar buzz.

"I think it's stupid," said Anthony Campagne, who was waiting while his tech company co-workers stood in line for their cupcakes. "It just doesn't make sense. People don't need cupcakes at three in the morning."
