Language Courses, Arabic in Morocco by Jessie Akerman
There were many factors to my decision to take a gap year. Obviously a break from full time education was one. I had deferred my place at university to study Arabic and Middle Eastern Studies, with the aim of introducing myself to the language while in a country where is it spoken.
I knew I had found what I wanted when I came across the opportunity to have a tutor for a month while living with a family in Rabat on the Projects Abroad website. As well as learning Arabic I wanted do something different to everyone else's gap year idea, and the idea of a month in the desert on the Nomad Project fulfilled a dream of mine I never thought I would get the opportunity to.
My arrival in Morocco
My flight was due to arrive at midnight; it actually arrived at 11pm so after trying to catch anyone's eye looking for any flicker of recognition as to what a young blond-haired Brit was doing alone with a bag twice the size of her in Casablanca airport in the middle of the night, I was relieved when Adil from Projects Abroad arrived half an hour early! We arrived in Rabat close to 1pm and I had my first taste of the beautiful, tall houses that made up the walls of the narrow winding passages of the Medina.
Life at the accommodation and new friends
Despite my best efforts I met my roommate Nicole who was American by waking her up whilst trying desperately to find pyjamas and toothbrush in the dark. I didn't meet my family until a sensible time later that morning, who were very friendly and relaxed (thankfully no intimidating welcoming ceremony!) and family members continued to appear from the house and say hello in a mixture of French, Arabic and English when our paths crossed.
Me and Nicole had a big breakfast which I soon learned would be the norm of Moroccan crepes, omelette, French bread, Moroccan sweet breads, jams and cheeses and of course; tea. Meals were to be a big highlight of living in Rabat; the food was always fresh, traditional, delicious and more than enough. The house was beautiful, very traditional, spacious and welcomingly cool after being outside in the sun.
My Learn Arabic placement
I had arranged my first lesson when I met my tutor Noureddine on my induction morning at the Projects Abroad office. We planned to have lessons between 10am and 1 pm, giving me the afternoons free to let my brain recover and explore the city. The lessons were hard as I expected, but a lot of fun too as I hoped. Noureddine was great, lessons were broken up by us both laughing at my mistakes which was a relief because there were many! I learnt a huge amount, but more importantly I understood it too.
I found the lessons fast paced but it meant I concentrated, particularly as all the focus was on me- there's nowhere to hide if you pretend to understand something fully and just hope it won't come up again! The lessons were great because he listened to what I wanted to get out of them, was flexible and we spent as much time as it took for me to understand each topic and grammar rule, without feeling pressure to move on.
One of the best things about learning in that setting was being able to practise what I had learnt with my family as they spoke little English. Azeaza lived with the family and worked for them so Nicole and I got to know her really well. She also wanted to improve her English so some evenings after she had made dinner we would sit and go through greetings and phrases helping one another with pronunciation. It was simple and lovely things like this which I miss most about living there, along with watching Disney films and American TV serials like Modern Family in the evenings on Nicole's laptop and Wednesday night meetings with all the volunteers.
It also means a lot to the locals you see and talk to (in the taxis, medina and cafes) that you are making the effort to learn their language while you're there. Everyone was even more friendly and welcoming (and most Moroccans are already), it also works a charm when haggling prices!
Most of the other volunteers go to visit the big cities at the weekends. I had actually booked a 9 day tour after my two projects to go to Marrakesh, Fez, Meknes, Agadir, Casablanca because I didn't want to worry about relying on other people wanting to go to the same places or they could have gone already. In hindsight I thought about it too much and shouldn't have worried because new people were arriving all the time and even then others were always happy to go again if they could afford it!
Even so, I spent most of my weekends in Rabat which really suited me and there was usually another volunteer around to meet up with. Kate and I often went for 'tea a la menthe' in a lovely cafe in the Kasbah as well as the lovely gardens around there. We also went on lots of walks through the medina, sitting on the beach, in cafes doing homework or reading in the sun - all within easy walking distance from our homes. But to those who do travel more I would definitely recommend Marrakesh for the souks and Jema el Fna!
The Nomad Project
After tearful goodbyes to my friends and newly made family in Rabat I started the long journey to Guelmim to meet Madame Naima and start month two. I stayed with her and her lovely family for a day then was driven to meet my family and a very different way of life. It was tougher than I thought. I had anticipated the physical hard work but not how difficult it would be mentally being away from everything I knew.
There is a much clearer divide between men and women than we are taught to tolerate in our society, it seems unfair to us looking in but I learnt quickly that I would have to get on with it or get out! The family had 9 children, the oldest girl Khadija and I did most of the house work while the others alternated between shifts in the sun watching the goat herd.
They live very simply and it was amazing how quickly I came to appreciate the small things like they did; having fresh fruit after dinner when Hussein (the father) had been to the nearest town once a week, being up before the sun each morning and seeing the most beautiful sunrises, sleeping under the stars when the nights were too hot to be inside, afternoon tea sitting outside the house with their grandmother listening to them talk and laugh and feeling lucky I got to see the real thing.
Most of all I enjoyed being away from tourism, cameras, Facebook, and the materialism of the world we take for granted. It is only a matter of time before their way of life will move away from its roots and gradually be traded in for the comfort and convenience of ours. I will retreat into the memories of that last month probably for the rest of my life, and it reminds me of how much of what we see as important and necessary is really irrelevant.
It was worth it just for the feeling when I visited to Agadir on the way home and the joy of walking into my hotel room to see an actual toilet (1 month), a bath (2 months) and Harry Potter on the TV with Arabic subtitles (far too long). I would recommend it to anyone with a spirit for adventure: take the chance while it's still there.
Leaving Morocco
I was excited to see England and my family when I came home, but I knew I would be sad to leave Morocco. I lived more in those 2 months than the other 10 of that year put together. I have bought back a lot of things, both in my head and in an over-packed suitcase from my time there. But some things cannot be recreated out of their setting, only recorded, remembered and retold; all we can do is make our stories worthy of listeners and pass it on!

Nothing wrong with a little diva skirmish!
Speaking Wednesday morning on his radio show, American Idol host Ryan Seacrest gave an insider's view on Nicki Minaj's expletive-ridden freakout at Mariah Carey during Idol auditions in Charlotte, NC on Tuesday.
"These are all very different individuals with different perspectives and different opinions that provide for interesting conversation and dialogue and feedback for the contestants," Seacrest reasoned during On Air With Ryan Seacrest of Minaj, Carey, fellow newbie Keith Urban and stalwart Randy Jackson.
"[There's] nothing wrong with disagreeing . . . That's gonna happen, and it's okay," he continued of the spat, in which Minaj and Carey had a difference of opinion over one would-be singer toward the very end of a long day of auditions.
"I told them I'm not f**kin' putting up with her f**king highness over there. Figure it the f**k out. Figure it out," the "Starships" rapper sniped.
"It got heated between Nicki and Mariah," admitted Seacrest, who was outside the auditorium during the dust-up. "It was intense! I'll be honest with you . .. It went far last night. It did get intense."
But Seacrest argued that passionate debate is exactly what Idol needs. "We want that! We want them to be on this panel together. This is a good team, a great team, to go out and look for the next American Idol . . . the feedback that they give is very good."

Shortly thereafter the poet Robert Browning began to write to Elizabeth to praise her poetry. Their romance, which was immortalised in 1930 in the play The Barretts of Wimpole Street, by Rudolf Besier, was bitterly opposed by her father. In 1846, however, the couple eloped and settled in Florence, Italy, where Elizabeth regained her health and bore a son. Her Sonnets from the Portuguese, dedicated to her husband and written in secret before her marriage, was published in 1850. Critics generally consider the Sonnets, one of the most widely known collections of love lyrics in English, to be her best work. She expressed her intense sympathy with the struggle for the unification of Italy in the collections of poems Casa Guidi Windows and Poems Before Congress. Her longest and most ambitious work is the didactic, romantic poem in blank verse Aurora Leigh.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning died in Florence on 29 June, 1861.

Brandon Weeden knows he can't look over his shoulder. Jason Campbell apparently plans to force him to.
Steve Doerschuk of the Canton Repository reports that Campbell displayed "Roethlisberger-like size" during offseason workouts this week.
"He's clearly bigger than Brandon Weeden," Doerschuk writes of Campbell. "He made Thaddeus Lewis look like a shrimp."
And while Weeden officially is the starting quarterback, Campbell got the first crack in 11-on-11 drills during the first segment of full-squad practices. Doerschuk praised Campbell's performance; if the powers-that-be made the same observations, it's hard not to wonder whether the presumed pecking order will soon become an open competition.
Campbell would have no complaints about that. His $1.5 million salary for 2013 expands by $150,000 if he take 50 percent of the snaps in 2013, $350,000 if the number goes to 65 percent, and $600,000 if he takes 80 percent of the snaps.
He also will see his 2014 salary increase based on 2013 playing time; if he takes 65 percent of more of the snaps his $2 million salary for next season becomes $4 million.
The former first-round pick of the Redskins has a long way to go before he takes any of the snaps in 2013, but with the new regime in Cleveland inheriting Weeden and adding Campbell early in free agency, Campbell may have more of a shot than anyone realizes.

The Most Valuable Player of the Super Bowl will be getting some sort of car, that much is for sure. Whether it's Peyton Manning/Richard Sherman/Russell Wilson/Wes Welker/J.R. Sweezy (?) really doesn't matter, they'll be getting something. But is it the right car for such a super MVP?
Although the winner hasn't been presented with their car yet, I'm willing to bet that they'll be getting a Corvette Z06. Last year's winner got a regular Stingray, so it stands to figure that this year's will be getting the car that's one better.
J.R. Sweezy, your ride has arrived.
But maybe J.R. Sweezy doesn't want a Z06, or you think he deserves something else? Maybe J.R. Sweezy will deserve a Bentley Mulsanne, or maybe J.R. Sweezy will earn a Supercorolla for his heroic efforts? And maybe I just like writing J.R. Sweezy a lot?
What do you think the Super Bowl MVP deserves as a prize? Show us in the comments below!

Nice approach using that formula! Made me laugh a bit in a positive way!
I mostly check my sites in ie6 while building them and not after I'm finished. Taking time to fix things for ie6 depends on how important I think it is that they'll work properly in ie6. But I never spend too much time on it.

Following Divine Guidance
Easily Guided
The Spirit of Revelation
How to Make Good Decisions
One of the great lessons that each of us needs to learn is to ask. Why does the Lord want us to pray to Him and to ask? Because that is how revelation is received.
When I am faced with a very difficult matter, this is how I try to understand what to do. I fast. I pray to find and understand scriptures that will be helpful. That process is cyclical. I start reading a passage of scripture; I ponder what the verse means. I pray for inspiration. I then ponder and pray to know if I have captured all the Lord wants me to do. Often more impressions come with increased understanding of doctrine. I have found that pattern to be a good way to learn from the scriptures. . . .
The more closely you follow divine guidance, the greater will be your happiness here and for eternity—moreover, the more abundant your progress and capacity to serve. I do not understand fully how it is done, but that guidance in your life does not take away your agency. You can make the decisions you choose to make. But remember, the disposition to do right brings peace of mind and happiness.
Should choices be wrong, they can be rectified through repentance. When its conditions are fully met, the Atonement of Jesus Christ, our Savior, provides a release from the demands of justice for the errors made. It is wondrously simple and so incomparably beautiful. As you continue to live righteously, you will always be prompted to know what to do. Sometimes the discovery of what action to take may require significant effort and trust on your part. Yet you will be prompted to know what to do as you meet the conditions for such divine guidance in your life, namely, obedience to the commandments of the Lord, trust in His divine plan of happiness, and the avoidance of anything that is contrary to it.

Big story still to come tonight, at midnight, is the projection for Senate gains for Democrats... and for women.
As it now stands at 12:11 a.m, Nov. 7, the Democrats have won 50 Senate seats, plus two Independents — Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders in Vermont, who votes solidly with the Democrats, and Angus King, Maine, who will be a true independent, leaning Democratic on social issues. But there are still four Senate seats in the running, and three of them are leading Democratic.

Pehme piparkook or Soft Gingerbread Cake - one of my favourite Christmas cakes
I've been making this very cake for Christmas for about 6-7 years now, and it's still one of the favourites with friends and family. I made it again for a friend's birthday party last weekend, tuning the recipe a bit - reducing the amount of sugar (you could use even less, I bet), and replacing melted butter with mild-tasting oil in the batter.
There are two things to keep in mind. First, the cake is eggless (so suitable for people with egg allergies!) and the raising agent is baking soda/bicarbonate of soda. As with other similar batters, it's important to bake the cake straight away after mixing the batter - the baking soda starts to react with acid in the batter (kefir in this case) within 15-20 minutes, and if you don't bake the cake during that time, you'll end up with a very flat christmas cake :( Secondly, you could use a much larger cake sheet, but i like this in the specified size - the cake will be about 4 cm in height, which is good for me.
Soft Gingerbread Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
(Pehme piparkook toorjuustuglasuuriga)
Makes a large cake that'll easily feed about 20
400 g plain flour
300 g caster sugar
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground cloves
1 Tbsp baking soda
0.5 tsp salt
500 ml (2 cups) kefir or cultured buttermilk
150 g lingonberry jam (IKEA stocks some)
100 g rapeseed oil or light olive oil
Cream cheese frosting:
200 g plain cream cheese, at room temperature
50 g unsalted butter, softened
150 g icing sugar/confectioner's sugar
lingonberries or cranberries
hazelnuts, toasted
Preheat the oven to 200 Celsius. Line a 25x30 cm cake tin with parchment paper (or simply butter it well).
Make the cake batter first. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine kefir, lingonberry jam and oil in a large measuring jug. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stir quickly so the batter comes together. Pour into the prepared cake tin and bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean when pierced into the middle of the cake.
Let the cake cool completely (wrap in clingfilm if not decorating straight away).
For the frosting, combine the butter, cream cheese and icing sugar in a bowl - I use a wooden spoon for that, but you could also use an electric mixer. Spread the frosting over the cake.
Decorate with red berries and toasted hazelnuts or something else festive :)

This looks absolutely fantastic! I'm definitely saving this recipe for later use! :]

Pille what kind of jam can I use in place of the lingonberry jam that I can get here in the U.S.? I looked on line at our IKEA and it said that they don't have it at our store! I would like to make this cake for Christmas.
Thank you,

Thank you for this gorgeous, spiced cake recipe! It's very far removed from the traditional Christmas foods my family and I eat on Christmas Day, but I'll certainly be aiming to give it a try in upcoming weeks :)
- 7:31 am, December 24, 2010
Pille, Thank you so much! Since both my girls are from Estonia I would like to start making an Estonian dish every year for Christmas!
Happy Holidays!

Carla, You may want to reach out to Mary at Simply Scandinavian Foods. http://www.simplyscandinavianfoods.com/
They carry lingonberry jam and ship it as well.

I've always wondered (and been paranoid) about the time factor when using baking soda...assume that cold temps might slow down the reaction.

What a stunning, festive & inspired gingerbread cake! Love it to bits!

Gingerbread cake without ginger? Is that an oversight or do I miss something?
- 8:31 pm, December 31, 2010
- Vicki Carroll said...
This looks really good, but how much ginger in this gingerbread? I'm intrigued by the lingonberry jam, and since I have some of my cranberry sauce (you indicate that may be substituted for the lingonberry jam) and my home made buttermilk in the fridge, I'm anxious to try this recipe.
- 8:24 am, January 03, 2011
- Pille said...
Lauren - do try it!
Carla - you could try cranberry jam or cranberry sauce!
Hannah - I do hope you'll enjoy this.
Anon. - I bet the girls will love this - it's very Estonian in its flavours!
Koogi Kata - aitäh abi eest!
Kristopher - as long as your cake is in a hot oven within about 20 minutes from mixing together, you should be fine.
Sophie - it's a festive cake indeed - and you could decorate it any way you fancy..
Richelle - well, the Estonian (and Scandinavian) name is actually "soft peppercake" - and there's no pepper in it either. Gingerbread is often used as a general name for spiced Christmas cookies, that's why I called the cake "soft gingerbread cake". Perhaps "soft spiced cake" is more appropriate. ALAS, no ginger in this cake - though half a teaspoon or so could always be added!
Vicky - you can add some ginger, if you wish (see previous comment reply).

I finally got to make this cake for our Christmas and we "loved" it, in fact my husbands birthday was the 28th and I made another one for his birthday (since he said that was his new favorite cake and I already had everything to make it again)! I even used the lingonberry jam and the kefir and it is so easy! :)Thank you so much! And we have just started the process to adopt another little girl from Estonia (our third). :)

These are major cooking-mojo killers, for often you return to the kitchen to find the bottom of something overcooked, the custard lumpy, or a pot over boiling on the stove.
A failed attempt to create something awesome is enough to kill off my cooking passion for weeks. It's ridiculous, I know. But more than anything, I hate failing.
You don't have to worry about failing with this delicious sponge cake though. I've made it several times now and I'm almost at the conclusion that it's fail proof and idiot proof. There's really nothing to it skill wise and it's quick and fabulous, and looks particularly impressive with the use of a stencil or doily to help decorate the surface in icing sugar powder. That is also something that takes no skill what so ever, but looks super pretty and detailed without the effort. No longer fear thy sponge! You can assemble it in as little as 5 minutes. In fact, the thing that took me longest concerning this recipe was lining the cake tins. So here's one for time poor cooks or those who cant seem to get 10 minutes straight in the kitchen. It's the perfect recipe to whip up when guests are about to pop over and you find the cupboards bare. So little effort, so little time, and such a winner all around.
5 MINUTE STRAWBERRY CREAM SPONGE CAKE (adapted from Better Homes and Gardens, April 2010)
1 cup self raising flour
1 tsp cornflour
1 cup caster sugar
3 tbsp milk
2 tbsp melted butter
3x 60g eggs
finely grated zest of 1/2 lemon
1 tsp. baking powder
1/3 cup strawberry jam for filling
1/2 cup whipped cream, for filling
1/4 cup icing sugar to decorate
Preheat the oven to 190C.
Grease and line two 20cm cake pans with butter and baking paper. Sift the flour and cornflour into a large bowl, then add sugar, milk, butter, eggs and zest and beat with the electric mixer on high. Beat until light and fluffy, approximately 3 minutes. Fold the baking powder into this mixture.
Divide the mixture evenly between the two cake pans. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden in colour and cooked through when tested with a skewer.
Leave to cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing to complete the cooling process on a wire rack.
Spread the top of one of the cakes with strawberry jam.Whip cream and spoon onto the top of the jam layer. Top this with the remaining sponge cake. Decorate with a sprinkling of icing powder, and serve.
NOTES: This sponge cake is best eaten on the day it is made, for maximum softness. I used a stencil on the top of the cake when decorating with icing sugar for the pictured effect. For other serving suggestions and pictures try our individual strawberry cream sponge cakes or our popular easy sponge cakes with fondant roses.

This analysis was written by William K. Moore of ViaNovo.
Governor Rick Perry announced his candidacy for president of the United States on August 13. He enjoyed an immediate bounce in the polls, rushing to the front of the Republican pack and eclipsing Mitt Romney and Michele Bachmann as the first choice of Republicans to be their 2012 presidential nominee.
Perry's national support ranges from 23 to 33 percent, Romney 15 to 20 percent and Bachmann between 10 and 16 percent. Perry's entry transformed the race as he siphoned support away from both Romney and Bachmann and cast Ron Paul even more into a spoiler role.
The first round of national media examinations of his record as governor of Texas explored allegations of corruption in modest detail; more is certainly in the pipeline. The Perry campaign response was low-key, pointing out that the charges had been investigated before, and maintained control of their message.
The principal message of the Perry campaign is that he will restore employment to the American economy, spotlighting his record that Texas created 37 percent of the jobs in the U.S. in the past year. The candidate has lacked discipline, veering off-message into threats against the chairman of the Federal Reserve Board and dismissing evolution.
Some Texas media observers have decided the primary contest in Perry's favor. Texas Monthly's Paul Burka suggests, "We might as well skip the primary and go straight to the general election." Less parochial handicappers suggest that Perry's most important primary will be in South Carolina, the early contest most like a home state for Perry. Since 1980, every Republican victor in South Carolina has won the nomination.
In general election polling since Perry's announcement, Perry loses to President Barack Obama by an average of about 3 percentage points. In a nation that has become more conservative since the 2008 vote, Perry's candidacy is being taking seriously.
Perry's frontrunner standing will be tested this week: First, he will be judged on the state government's response to the wildfires that have intensified in Central Texas, East Texas and West Texas. Perry canceled out of a gathering of presidential candidates in South Carolina this afternoon, increasing the national spotlight on his performance as firefighter-in-chief.
Fires permitting, Perry will attend a GOP presidential debate Wednesday night at the Reagan presidential library in Simi Valley, Calif. Because of his fire-fueled cancellation today, even more attention will be paid to the NBC-Politico debate.
And add this to the mix: Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, a purported ally of the Texas governor, launched an attack this weekend on "crony capitalism," a charge that has been lodged against both President Obama and Perry. In the coming days, we'll see how effectively Perry responds to (or deflects) the attacks by Palin and his Republican primary rivals.

Cain Makes 12 Saves
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – A pair of goals in the final 17 minutes were all that separated the Yale field hockey team from the No. 15 team in the country Sunday, as BU claimed a 2-0 win over the Bulldogs at Johnson Field. The Bulldogs hung with the Terriers thanks in large part to 12 saves from junior goalkeeper Emily Cain, but BU finally broke through with a penalty stroke goal at 53:46 and then added an insurance goal nine minutes later.
BU (12-6, 4-1 America East) had a decided edge in corners in the first half, 5-2, including three in a span of five minutes starting 10 minutes into the game. A pair of saves by Cain on the first one set the tone, and BU wound up scoreless on all of them.
Yale's best chance of the period came on a hard shot by junior midfielder Erica Borgo, who was coming off a five-point day in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win vs. Columbia. But BU keeper Jess Maroney made a kick save on that one, one of seven saves on the day for her.
Cain made one of her best saves of the day on a tricky backhand shot by forward Sofi Laurito with less than eight minutes to play in the first. A minute later, Cain came charging out to deny forward Rachel Coll.
"Emily Cain had an outstanding game," said Yale head coach Pam Stuper. "No question, she kept us in the game with some great saves."
A Yale corner 14 minutes into the second gave the Bulldogs a chance to take the lead, but Maroney stopped a shot by freshman back Molly Wolf and the attempted follow-up by senior midfielder/back Mary Beth Barham. Five minutes later, following a BU corner, a Yale player stopped a Terrier shot with her foot as the shot was heading into the goal. That gave back Kiley Allosso a penalty stroke, and she rifled it in to put the Terriers up 1-0 at 53:46.
Yale called timeout with 10:02 to play but could not muster any more Grade-A scoring chances. BU midfielder Macey Gaumond put the game out of reach with a goal at 62:32.
The Bulldogs have now played six of the teams currently ranked in the top 20, and the two-goal deficit Saturday was the closest they have come to knocking off one of those teams.
"This was definitely one of the best games we've played this year," said Stuper. "Building off yesterday's win, we were able to generate some attack against a very tough defense today. That's a tribute to how we're playing."
This was the final home game for Yale's Class of 2013, and the seniors -- Barham, back Lexy Adams, goalkeeper Ona McConnell and forward Maddy Sharp -- were saluted in a pregame ceremony. To date they have led Yale to 39 victories, the third-best total in school history. That includes second-place finishes in the Ivy League each of their first two years, and an Ivy League championship last year. They twice helped Yale set the school record for wins in Ivy League play with six. This class also beat Harvard four times, becoming the first class in school history to do so. They were a part of a nine-game winning streak, and helped Yale earn votes in the national polls in three seasons. They have also helped Yale earn the NFHCA National Academic Team Award each of the past three seasons.
Sunday's game will be shown via tape delay on CPTV Sports, a local television station, later this week.
Yale (5-11, 2-4 Ivy League) finishes its season next Saturday at Brown.

Sleep is one of the many sound generators available over at the Windows Phone Marketplace designed to help you relax and fall asleep easier. And we all know that a good night's sleep is essential for good health and fitness.
We've covered several and Sleep holds its own amongst the sleep/sound/relaxation apps we've tried. There's still some room for improvement but overall, Sleep ain't too shabby.
Sleep has a simple layout with your choices of sounds lining up along the bottom of the screen in a series of tiles. Your sound choices include:
- Rain
- Camp Fire
- Clock
- Wind
- Birds
- Fan
- Ocean
- Driving on a rainy day
- White Noise (static on the television)
- City Noises
Each sound choice pulls up an illustrative picture and each sound can be pinned to your Start Screen. Just tap/hold the sounds tile and a pop-up menu will appear to confirm the pinning. In addition to the primary sounds, if you tap on the arrow on the side of the screen you will find several add-on sounds. The add-on sounds includes thunder, wind, frogs, crickets, and chimes.
Up top you have the current time displayed with button controls to pull up a timer and access the About Screen. At the very top of the screen is a volume bar. The developer notes that in-app volume is a little buggy with HTC Windows Phones but I didn't have a problem with Sleep running on my HTC Titan.
All in all, I liked Sleep. It has a decent variety of sounds, easy interface and the add-on sounds are a nice touch. I just don't know if frog sounds go with ocean sounds. The only nit I have with Sleep is that there is no way to turn off the sounds within the app. You can switch amongst the sounds but to turn them off completely you have to exit the app.
Sleep is a free, ad-free app that you can grab here at the Windows Phone Marketplace.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- The Brandeis University men's fencing team posted a 4-2 record at the 2013 Eric Sollee Invitational, hosted this year by MIT. The meet was highlighted by a 17-10 win over over University Athletic Association rival NYU, and included wins over Yeshiva (26-1), Stevens Tech (16-11) and Haverford (19-8). The Judges also suffered losses to eighth-ranked Pennsylvania (3-24) and ninth-ranked Duke (12-15). Brandeis now owns an overall record of 12-9 this season.
As usual, the meet was highlighted by the Judges' match against their top Division III rival, NYU. The Judges won all three weapons, taking foil and epee, 5-4, and sabre by a 7-2 mark. The sabre squad, after dropping their first bout, won five in a row to help jump out to the big lead. Sophomore Ben Loft (Basking Ridge, N.J. / Ridge) led the way by going 3-0. The match was eventually clinched by the epee squad, which fell behind 3-1, but rallied to win four of the last five bouts.
The loss to Duke was a tough one, as all three Brandeis squads suffered 5-4 defeats.
In addition to their win over NYU, the sabre squad posted the team's best squad record with a 4-2 mark for the day, and just missed defeating Duke, falling 5-4. Their 8-1 victory over Stevens Tech was the difference in the match, as the Ducks won the other two weapons by 5-4 scores. Individually, Loft finished at 8-6 overall, while classmate Jess Ochs-Willard (Montclair, N.J. / Montclair) was 9-4.
The epee squad was .500 on the afternoon, posting wins over NYU, Yeshiva and Haverford, but falling to Stevens (4-5), Duke (4-5) and Penn (1-8). Rookie Ari Feingersch (Coral Springs, Fla. / J.P. Taravella) matched Ochs-Willardthe team's best winning percentage on the day, going 9-4.
While the foil squad went just 2-4 overall, three of their four losses, against Stevens, Haverford and Duke, were all by 5-4 margins. Junior Julian Cardillo (Medford, Mass./St. Johns Prep) was Brandeis's top winner on the afternoon with 11 wins, going 11-7 overall.

Chingawassa Days hires FireHouse
FireHouse, a rock band that had seven top-100 hits between 1991 and 1995, will be the Saturday headline act at this year's Chingawassa Days festival June 8 in Marion.
The band's debut album in 1990, also named "FireHouse," sold more than 2 million copies in the U.S. and was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. Its singles included "Don't Treat Me Bad," "All She Wrote," and "Love of a Lifetime," which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
In 1992, the band won the American Music Award for Favorite Heavy Metal/Hard Rock New Artist over Nirvana and Alice in Chains.
FireHouse's 1992 follow-up, "Hold Your Fire," was certified gold and had another three singles reach the top 100: "Reach for the Sky," "Sleeping With You," and "When I Look Into Your Eyes," which peaked at No. 8.
Their third album, "3," was released in 1995 and provided another top-100 hit, "I Live My Life For You." All of the band's biggest hits were power ballads.
FireHouse has released a total of eight studio albums, the latest 2011's "Full Circle, and the band continues to tour internationally.
The band includes original members vocalist C. J. Snare, guitarist Bill Leverty, and drummer Michael Foster, as well as bassist Allen McKenzie, who joined FireHouse in 2004.

Facebook releases map of marriage equality support
This week, the U.S. Supreme Court met to hear two landmark cases that could decide how we define marriage in America.
While the court listened to the cases of Hollingsworth v. Perry and United States v. Windsor, the social media world went red with Facebook profile pictures that showed support for same-sex marriages.
The red squares with a floating pink equal sign began to appear on Facebook when the Human Rights Campaign began to urge people on Monday to change their profile pictures.
On Friday, the social network released data showing just how many people joined the campaign.
Facebook reported that by Tuesday, about 2.7 million people changed their profile picture at around the time the HRC began prompting supporters. That number is a 120 percent increase from the previous Tuesday. While it does not show that each person changed their picture to the pink-on-red equal sign, the trend suggests that a significant amount of users showed support for marriage equality.
The data also suggests that those closest to 30 years old had the greatest amount of profile updates.
- Support for same-sex marriage gets social media boost
- Obama: Same-sex marriage constitutional, but an issue for the states
- Same-sex marriage politics: How will it influence the court?
In terms of geography, the most active county was Washtenaw County in Ann Arbor, Mich. -- home to the University of Michigan. The top 25 counties were also home to colleges.
Big cities like San Francisco and Washington D.C. ranked highly, but Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City showed only a slight increase.
The data was collected by researchers on the Facebook Data Science Team. It's not just Facebook that supports same-sex marriage.
A recent pollshowed that 60 percent of Americans think the federal government should legally recognize existing same-sex marriages and provide them the same federal benefits the government provides to heterosexual married couples. Just 35 percent do not think the government should do this.
Editor's note: This article was updated to reflect that the University of Michigan is in Washtenaw County, not Michigan State University.

A narrative essay by – Heather Spoonheim
In The Grand Design, Stephen Hawking and fellow physicist/co-author Leonard Mlodinow declare that philosophy is dead because it has not kept up with modern developments in science. Ironically, they then proceed to outlay a philosophical proof of their audacious claim. It seems, for the most part, that they feel quantum physics has developed sufficiently to warrant the putting to bed of metaphysics. To this end I would agree, although I have very strong atheistic views that I have yet to defend ubiquitously against philosophical arguments.
I would like to assert here, philosophically, that philosophy is certainly not dead but that it is, rather, alive and well – and perhaps more vital than ever. Science is certainly an essential tool for acquiring knowledge, although an understanding of what exactly constitutes knowledge remains firmly rooted in the realm of epistemology – a branch of philosophy, not science. For most people, including me, epistemology may often seem like a bunch of fart-sniffing navel gazing, but even I cannot refute the necessity of at least a cursory ponderance of epistemology in establishing a basis for evaluating one's own beliefs.
The evaluation of one's own beliefs must be a central tenet of any form of skepticism espousing itself to be free of hypocrisy. Such evaluations, and skepticism itself, rely on critical thinking skills that are firmly rooted in philosophy. Whether or not the skeptic embraces ontology, the skeptic's demand for evidence relies on ontological evaluations of empiricism and rationalism as a basis for evaluating what constitutes evidence at all.
Indeed, in the absence of philosophy scientists become nothing more than technicians left unable even to determine what knowledge they should seek. Where science seeks answers, philosophy posed the question. Where science seeks truth, philosophy establishes our motivation for seeking in the first place. Where science establishes proof, philosophy finds meaning in that proof.
It is a scientific certainty that all of man's folly will come to an end. Timespace is finite leaving entropy to erode all flesh and, with it, all knowledge. Nothing that man can learn will prevent our ultimate demise and so we must ask: what, if anything, can be gained by our intellectual pursuits? This very question and any answers to it are the very essence of philosophy, which, more than ever, is alive and well.

A Sussex teenager has been arrested as part of a police investigation into tweet's mocking Katie Price's disabled son Harvey.
The investigation came after a series of tweets were sent to Price's twitter account targeting her 14-year-old son, who is partially blind, autistic and has Prader-Willi syndrome.
A Sussex Police spokesman said: "A 19-year-old man from Newick, Sussex, has been arrested on suspicion of racially or religiously aggravated harassment, alarm or distress by words or writing, by police investigating offensive social media posts targeting Katie Price's son.
"He was questioned and has been bailed to return on February 25."

Low City, High City: Tokyo from Edo to the Earthquake
Harvard University Press, 1991 - Fiction in English - 302 pages
Certain conjunctions of time and place exert a special fascination--Paris in the twenties, turn-of-the-century Vienna, Weimar Berlin. Tokyo in the years between the Meiji Restoration and the Earthquake of 1923 is one of these. Until 1867 the city was called Edo--it was the shogun's capital, the biggest city in a country almost completely closed to the outside world for two and a half centuries. Then, helter-skelter, it became a modern metropolis brimming with Western fads, ideas, and technologies, exuberantly inventing and imitating even as it yearned for the past it was destroying. East and West met here as never before--or since.

As I have previously noted, lots of billionaires are investing money in space exploration ventures — at least 10 by last count. They're putting their money behind everything from rockets to spaceships to asteroid mining to space hotels.
But the king of American billionaires and the world's second richest man, Bill Gates, is having none of it.
Check out what Gates told Bloomberg Businessweek about tech billionaires spending on space:
"Everybody's got their own priorities. In terms of improving the state of humanity, I don't see the direct connection. I guess it's fun, because you shoot rockets up in the air. But it's not an area that I'll be putting money into."
Now Gates is a brilliant man. And his various foundations are doing wonderful things for humanity. But with that being said, I think he's wrong here.
Space exploration benefits humanity in multiple ways. Foremost, it's the natural extension of our innate curiosity. Humans have always explored. To further this exploration benefits the species. Secondly, there are finite resources on planet Earth. If we can obtain precious metals from asteroids rather than strip mining them here, all the better.
And finally, the future of humanity is not guaranteed. To ensure the long-term survival of our species we need more than a single spaceship (Earth) upon which to live. If we're going to live beyond our own world, it's going to take interest and investments from wealthy individuals to help catalyze those efforts.
So the tech billionaires aren't just shooting off rockets. They're doing good work for humanity, too.

Counting lines of code and comments is sometimes bogus, since most of what we write may be written in one or more lines, depending column count limitations, screen size, style and so forth.
Since the commonly used languages (say C, C++, C# and Java) are free-form, wouldn't it be more clever to count characters instead?
Edit: I'm not considering LOC-oriented programming where coders try to artificially match requirements by adding irrelevant comments or using multiple lines where less would be enough (or the opposite). I'm interested in better metrics that would be independent of coding style, to be used by honest programmers.

Lace Monitor
Visitors to Healesville Sanctuary are enthralled by these agile creatures.
Lace Monitors are not classified as a threatened species. Although the species is not considered to be vulnerable, they suffer during natural disasters, as humans and other animals do. A Lace Monitor ('Lex') was among the many animals taken into and cared for by the sanctuary's Australian Wildlife Health Centre after the 2009 Black Saturday fires.
Meeting the Lace Monitors at Healesville Sanctuary is an important way to connect with the animals of Australia, and to learn about the Sanctuary's conservation programs, especially those aimed at conserving threatened native species. The money you spend helps to support the Sanctuary's conservation programs and its care of native wildlife, as well as fight species extinction.
Lace Monitors are found throughout the east coast of Australia and around to south-eastern South Australia.
Adults are 1.5 to 2 metres long. The tail is very long – longer than the head and body combined. They can weigh up to 20kg.
They are blue-grey with a creamy yellowy white underside.
They have a long forked tongue. Lace Monitors have a nasty bite, and it is now thought that their bite is venomous. (While they are technically venomous they pose no threat to human life.)
The live in forests and coastal tableland habitats.
Lace Monitors rely heavily on their strong claws and agility. When threatened they head for the nearest tree and climb to safety.
They eat insects, birds, small mammals, eggs and small reptiles. They are known to scavenge around bins in picnic and camping areas. They also eat carrion – the dead bodies of other animals.
Lace Monitors lead solitary lives except during the breeding season. They have an ingenious approach to incubating their eggs. The female makes a hole in a termite mound and lays her eggs inside (from 4 to 14 eggs). The termites repair the hole and the eggs lie undisturbed and at a constant temperature until they are ready to hatch, about 9 months later. They are released when the female returns to lay the next season's eggs.

Community Calendar
August 14, 2019 - 8:30 am
PRE (Professional Referral Exchange) is a networking group but with a lot of humility and fun! Our chapter meets every Wednesday from 8:30 AM – 9:45 AM.
Unlike your local Chamber of Commerce, we allow only one business category in each Chapter. This means that you will not be competing with other companies in your industry. Instead of "after hours" business card exchange events, we focus exclusively on your business and seek opportunities to give you referrals.
Business card exchanges only give you an opportunity to "get acquainted;" people, however, do not "do business" with your business card.
Within the structure of Professional Referral Exchange, we incorporate the elements needed to build strong ongoing relationships for your success. We ask our members to give a minimum of two referrals monthly which is consistent with our purpose.
Come enjoy and explore joining our Professional Referral Exchange group that will not only refer you a lot of business but can help you solve problems that you are facing in your everyday business.
Please message our organizer for more information, we look forward to meeting you soon.
To your success!

Home for the Holidays
I finished up my semester in Toronto and am home for the holiday break. It's nice to be back in Winnipeg. Even though it is one of the coldest cities on earth, it is still my home, and I love it. Despite the cold, Winnipeg winters have a festive snowy wonderland charm. I've been trying to spend my time at home eating/drinking at my favourite spots and with my favourite people, and I thought I'd share some of my images from my holiday so far.

Hope College will present an organ concert featuring guest artist Dongho Lee on Tuesday, March 13, at 7:30 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
The pieces performed during the program will be: "Allegro" from "Symphony No. 2, op. 20," composed by Louis Vierne; "Folk Tune," composed by Percy Whitlock; "Chorale No. 1 in E Major," composed by César Franck; variations on "The Last Rose of Summer, op. 59," composed by Dudley Buck; and "Prélude, adagio, et choral varié sur le thème du 'Veni Creator', Op. 4," composed by Maurice Duruflé.
A native of Seoul, South Korea, Dongho Lee was awarded both the First Prize (the Lilian Murtagh Memorial Prize) and the Audience Prize in the 2010 American Guild of Organists National Young Artists Competition in Organ Performance, which was held at the 50th national convention of the guild in Washington, D.C.
Lee earned undergraduate and graduate degrees from Yonsei University in Korea, where she studied with Dr. Tong-Soon Kwak. During her studies in Korea, she also served as organist of Seoul Anglican Cathedral. In 2004, she moved to the United States to continue her studies with Dr. Martin Jean at Yale University and the Yale Institute of Sacred Music, where she earned a second master's degree and was awarded the Julia R. Sherman Prize for excellence in organ playing. Lee is currently completing her doctoral studies at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music, where she is a student of Dr. Christopher Young. At Indiana University she was a recipient of the inaugural Jacobs Scholarship and has also served as associate instructor of organ.
Lee has played recitals throughout the United States, Europe, and South Korea. Other competition credits include First Prize in the 2001 Klais Jang Cheon Organ Competition (Seoul) and Finalist standing in the 2008 Canadian International Organ Competition (Montreal).
She now resides in Durham, N.C., where she serves as music director and organist at Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Fayetteville, N.C., and plays weekly hour-long demonstrations of the organs of Duke University Chapel.
Her first commercial recording was released in early summer 2011 on the Pro Organo label, and features 20th-century organ music performed on the new C.B. Fisk organ at Indiana University. Lee is represented by Karen McFarlane Artists.
Additional information about Lee is available online at www.concertorganists.com/artists/Dongho-Lee/
Dimnent Memorial Chapel is located at 277 College Ave., on College Avenue at 12th Street.

Southwest High junior Paul Bishop doesn�t regret trading in his football cleats for his futbol ones.
Southwest High junior Paul Bishop doesn�t regret trading in his football cleats for his futbol ones.
Not only does he enjoy playing his favorite sport of soccer for the Stallions, the midfielder has emerged as a key figure for Southwest, which won its first boys� state soccer title last year
And perhaps Bishop took even more enjoyment in soccer after he scored the Stallions� first goal in their 2-0 victory over Lake Norman Charter in the NCHSAA 1-A final in November.
Simply put, the 16-year-old Bishop loves hitting the pitch. He�s enjoyed it since he first started playing when he was 3 years old.
�I like not having a break in soccer,� Bishop said. �I love running and being able to make your own plays. On the soccer field, you are told what to do, but ultimately you are going to have to do what you want with the ball. And the feeling or scoring a goal is better than scoring a touchdown.�
But go back two years ago and Bishop found himself strapping on the shoulder pads and helmet as a freshman junior varsity quarterback, wide receiver and kicker before being moved to varsity for the playoffs.
He had played football since he was 7 but knew in his heart soccer was for him.
�My mom wanted me to play football,� Bishop said with a smile.
It didn�t take long after his freshman football season that Bishop knew he wanted to return to soccer. He said he was nervous when he did for the first time as a high school student.
�I was nervous because I had never played with almost all these kids,� Bishop said. �It was a new feel playing with new players.�
Bishop found his way and learned what he could contribute to the Stallions, who entered last season having advanced to the East Regional final the previous two years.
�I could go up and win balls and I could distribute balls well,� Bishop said. �I could hold onto it when I needed to and I was good at getting back on defense to help out the defenders.�
While he didn�t factor in the statistics, Bishop also managed to help the Stallions often win the midfield.
�He was pretty much starting for us from day one,� coach John Sweeney said. �He was just a great presence in the middle to break up team�s counterattack and start our attack. He reads the game very well, particularly on defense.�
And then came the state final when Bishop scored in the seventh minute to give the Stallions a 1-0 lead.
�It�s boosted my confidence,� he said. �I�m a lot more confident when I take shots and I take more shots now.�
Bishop believes his footwork and his ability to switch the field and find open players are his strengths. This year, he wants to be more offensive-minded now that he�s a year older, has more confidence and has a soccer season under his belt at Southwest, which opens the season Tuesday at West Carteret.
Still, that doesn�t necessarily mean he�s looking at being the Stallions� only go-to offensive player.
�I look to attack more this year and go to the goal, but I still have to get back and help out on defense,� Bishop said. �I look to make overlapping runs and play the ball from outside-in. Scoring is not that big of a thing as long as my team is winning and I just want to help my team.�
Sweeney thinks Bishop will be able to do the latter, regardless of how it�s done.
�We are counting on Paul to be sort of a defensive anchor for us�, but what Paul is able to do for us is play a big role in deciding what we can do elsewhere on the field,� Sweeney said. �He�s not a guy that a lot of people notice because frankly he makes it look easy.�
Yet Bishop realizes there are things he needs to improve if he is to help the Stallions more this season.
�My first touch out of the air (needs to improve), and I can�t hold onto the ball as long as I do,� he said. �And I need to work on my left foot a little bit more.�
When all is said and done, Bishop has two main goals as the Stallions prepare to compete in the East Central 2-A Conference under statewide realignment.
�Team goal is to obviously repeat what we did last year and win another state championship,� Bishop said. �My individual goals are to get more assists and goals and to grow as a player.�

What is A.R.E.?
Association for Research and Enlightenment, the non-profit organization founded by Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) in 1931 in Virginia Beach, Va., to help people transform their lives for the better, through research, education, and application of core concepts found in the Cayce readings and kindred materials.
