AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Jan. 23 (UPI) -- A butcher in the Netherlands capital said he turns the pigeons delivered to him by a pest control firm into pate for human consumption.
Poulterer Thomas van Meel told the Parool newspaper he receives pigeons from a private pest control firm at his Amsterdam shop and he turns "a couple of hundred" of the birds into game pate he then sells to the public, DutchNews.nl reported Thursday.
Parool said the pigeon processing deal is carried out without the knowledge of public officials, but van Meel said there is no danger in eating the pigeon meat.
"We carry out very tight screening on everything that comes in," he said.

Syracuse, NY (PRWEB) January 23, 2014
Carlton Management, LLC, a multi-family residential and commercial property management firm in Central New York, recently completed exterior LED lighting upgrades at 22 of its properties. The upgrades, completed by SmartWatt Energy via the National Grid Small Business Services Program, have reduced Carlton Managements monthly energy costs by more than $5,000.
We have completed lighting upgrades at 22 of our properties through the National Grid Small Business Services Program because we saw the energy savings, said Marke Lantry, Property Manager for Carlton Management. It was a no brainer.
After conducting a complimentary energy analysis of all outdoor lighting, SmartWatt proposed a plan to replace the existing inefficient exterior parking lot, building, and canopy lighting systems with energy-efficient LED lighting fixtures. These upgrades came with a National Grid rebate of $141,932 and, according to National Grid, are expected to pay for themselves in approximately 23 months.
Additionally, Carlton Management has referred 18 of its tenants to complete interior lighting upgrades at their facilities through the National Grid Small Business Services Program. One tenant, Mother Nature Pet Supply, completed interior T-12 to T-8 fluorescent lighting upgrades at its retail store in Manlius, NY. The upgrades are expected to save $122 per month in energy costs and came with a National Grid rebate of $2,143.
The lighting upgrades have made a huge difference in our store, said Carla DellContrada, Owner of Mother Nature Pet Supply. The new lights are at least three times brighter.
SmartWatt is the administrator and implementation contractor for National Grid's Small Business Services Program in Upstate New York. The National Grid Small Business Services Program helps businesses with an average peak demand of 100 kW or less per month conduct energy-efficient upgrade measures. Through this program, SmartWatt Energy will provide a complimentary energy analysis, and National Grid will pay up to 70 percent of the installation costs completed by SmartWatt Energy and finance the remaining amount interest-free for up to two years.

Two Orangeburg County property owners complained to county council members about citations theyd received from Litter Control officers.
The property owners agreed that litter such as trash and garbage should be addressed throughout the county. However, they think Litter Control officers went a bit too far by writing citations for not mowing grass.
Ann Sutcliffe addressed council Tuesday about citations she received last fall from Litter Control. It was her second time bringing the issue before council.
Sutcliffe explained that shed received tickets from Orangeburg County Litter Control stating that she needed to cut two acres of grass that had grown too high.
Theyre telling me Ive got to clear two acres of property. Its not trash. Its not garbage. I can understand that. Its trees and underbrush, she said as she distributed photographs of the property in question and a nearby property she said is in the same condition as hers.
Is this going to be enforced on all property owners or are you going to pick and choose? she asked council.
I think Ive been singled out, she said.
Sutcliffe also said shed heard that the states Department of Health and Environmental Control would visit the property with infrared (equipment) to see if Id buried the garbage.
I did not bury the garbage, she said.
Councilwoman Janie Cooper-Smith, who represents the council district where the property is located, said she wants to hear from Litter Control to get its side of the story too.

A new lawsuit is filed against the Chicago Archdiocese on behalf of three people who say they were sexually abused as children.
A lawsuit filed Thursday in Cook County Court alleges Norbert Maday molested three boys as part of a tag team with a scout leader who volunteered under the priests supervision.
The men who brought the legal action also accuse the Archdiocese of Chicago of failing to protect them more than 40 years ago during the abuse.
The unnamed plaintiffs, all in their 50s, said the legal action was sparked after media accounts in recent years revealed the churchs troubled past of responding to pedophile priests.
Maday is accused in the lawsuit of inappropriately touching all three boys in separate acts from 1967 to 1973 while he was at St. Leo Catholic Church in Chicago and, later, at St Louis de Montfort in Oak Lawn.
Two of the men said they also were fondled by Thomas Hacker, a former Boy Scout leader and volunteer at the Oak Lawn church in the early 1970s, who often accompanied them on parish retreats.
In an interview at his lawyer's office, a 52-year-old south suburban man identified as John Doe 3 said Maday seemed to target boys like him at St. Louis de Montfort, who were being raised by single mothers.
The man told the Tribune he was inappropriately touched by both Maday and Hacker as a preteen during car rides, gym class and parish outings. He said he eventually told his mother, who confronted the parish school principal, but Maday remained in ministry.
The man said he overcame years of substance abuse and depression and remains in counseling. He has not returned to the Catholic church since he was young.
It's hard to grasp that someone who you think is in God's word would take advantage of a child's innocence, said the man, who asked not to be named publicly. That's something that cuts me real deep. Officials at the archdiocese said they had not seen the lawsuit and did not have a response.
