About 9021Pho:

9021Pho was born out of a unique partnership in Beverly Hills, California, where the celebrated Vietnamese Master Chef Kimmy Tang assumed management of a local restaurant transforming it into a fresh, healthy dining experience combined with her innovative French and Asian cuisine.

Born and raised in Saigon, Chef Kimmy learned at an early age how to prepare traditional Vietnamese dishes by watching the family chef prepare sumptuous meals. Her culinary passion broadened when she and her family moved to California where she began working in Chinese and Japanese restaurants. With her valuable skills, Chef Kimmy soon opened her own fine dining restaurant and received celebrated acclaim by the L.A. Times, Los Angeles Magazine and many other publications.

Longing to explore other cultures and perfect her culinary skills, Chef Kimmy sold her restaurant and started an international journey to study the traditional recipes of the world including France and her home country Vietnam. She used this knowledge to create delicious dishes, which inspired her to return to the United States and open 9021Pho.

Today, 9021Pho caters to the health conscious food-lover featuring fresh ingredients, a colorful array of vegetables, and lean cuts of meat and poultry. Along with an extraordinary menu, 9021Pho and Chef Kimmy are passionate in helping children through the support of local and national charities. Birthed out of her beliefs and her time volunteering with orphanages, Chef Kimmys compassion for children and people are the cornerstones of her life and a core value of 9021Pho.

Copy Doctor Launches Kids Meals Food Drive

Houston, TX (PRWEB) May 01, 2013

Copy Doctor is teaming up with Kids Meals and will sponsor a food drive during the month of May. Donations received through the drive will help Kids Meals, Texas only meals-on-wheels program for children, serve healthy lunches to over 1700 hungry pre-school aged children living in poverty.

It is sometimes difficult to believe that hunger exists right here in the Houston area. Most people think of hunger in terms of famine, or major tragedies, but not as something that affects children everyday in our own community, said Don Sowa, President of Copy Doctor. Anything we can do to help our neighbors is not only our responsibility, but our privilege. We hope our customers and business friends will join us in supporting this great organization.

Texas, unfortunately, is number one in our nation for food insecurity for children, according to The Houston Food Bank. In Harris County, there is an estimated poverty rate of 16.4% for individuals, but children under five are disproportionately affected by a poverty rate of 25.7% ...at 28.2% - 1,871,600 children are living in food insecure homes. (CHILDREN AT RISK, Growing up in Houston 2008-2010).

Kids' Meals is a non-profit, community-based organization, which provides and delivers nutritious meals, free of cost to the families, Monday through Friday, year-round. In the summer months the number of children serviced jumps from 1700 to 3400 a day. Kids Meals is the only organization that is bridging the gap for hungry preschool aged children; the missing piece for children ages 1-5 who are too old for services from organizations such as WIC and not yet old enough to receive free breakfast and lunch in school.

Non perishable food donations may be dropped off at both Copy Doctor locations, 3814 Bissonnet Street, Houston, TX 77005, or 1101 S. Friendswood Drive, Friendswood, TX 77546 during the month of May.

Horsefinder Announces Top Tips to Combat Equine Obesity

Taunton, Somerset (PRWEB UK) 1 May 2013

With milder weather and typical British rain showers, the month of April has seen a fast growth of grass. The abundance of fresh grass, which is high in fructans and sugars, is irresistible to horses and ponies but can pose a risk to those prone to laminitis and obesity.

Horsefinder, the website where horse owners can buy and sell horses, has teamed up with expert horse nutritionist, Brinicombe Equine, to produce a how-to of top tips to guide horse owners throughout the summer months. Brinicombe's equine development manager says: Equine obesity has fatal consequences and causes severe, debilitating and painful symptoms including the onset of laminitis. It is one of the most common causes of fatalities out of any equine disease in the UK yet it is 100 per cent preventable.

To help a horse reach, and stay, a healthy weight, Horsefinder and Brinicombe Equine advise the following prevention methods:

Exercise a horse regularly - this will help weight come off and stay off.

Monitor grass intake and gradually reduce grazing.

Double bag hay with two hay nets this will reduce the speed and amount of food a horse consumes.

Soak hay this reduces the calorie content through a reduction of water-soluble carbohydrates.

Spilt any meals into smaller meals throughout the day.

Tie hay nets in various locations around the yard this will encourage a horse to move around and burn calories.

Place some large, smooth pebbles into a horses feed this will slow down the eating time as they navigate the pebbles.

Keep a horse occupied by hanging up vegetables in the stable; putting chopped vegetables into a foraging ball; or placing apples in a bucket of water for apple
