What
Isnt
There
to
Like
About
This
Country?
Its
Africas
own
version
of
California
with
a
long,
west-facing
coastline,
tall
mountains,
classic
deserts
and
exceptionally
friendly
people.
It
boasts
a
Mediterranean
feel
and
perhaps
the
worlds
oldest
shopping
mall.
With
its
distinctively
French-Arabic
twist,
it
is
truly
a
unique
world
unto
itself
only
8
miles
from
Spain.
What
is
the
name
of
this
country?

A Moroccan in Silicon Valley
Born in Rabat, Morocco, Hicham
was educated at Santa Clara
University in California.
Infused with the entrepreneurial
spirit of Silicon Valley, he
helped found Safarclick.com.
Specifically targeting Morocco's
inbound and outbound travelers,
Safarclick.com teams up with
some of the "big boys" like
Expedia and Trip Advisor to
offer some great travel services
including tours and packages.
Plus, you can even use your
Moroccan credit card! Sandy has
beta tested this site personally
and reports her findings.

Arab & American
Business Fellowship
Thrives
More than just a great
theoretical concept, the
Business for Diplomatic
Action (BDA)
organization actually
arranges exchanges of
business professionals
between the US and Arab
nations. After all,
achieving peace through
business relations is a
time-proven idea and the
BDA believes in
ratcheting up the volume
on this great approach
to diplomacy and image
building. Find out how
Arab and American
fellows are selected by
the BDA to be sent
abroad to spend nearly a
month in each other's
countries 'learning the
business" first-hand.

Blood Chit
Bailing out of an aircraft in
stormy darkness over the frozen
mountaintops of Tibet is perhaps
the ultimate leap of faith. A
crew of five US airmen made that
leap during WWII when their
airlift supply mission to China
was blown hundreds of miles off
course over the Himalayas. A
great story of miraculously
beating the odds of survival in
a strange, forbidding and
mysterious country caught in a
raging torrent of wartime
political intrigue. The trek
back to their airbase in India
is one of the true adventure
travel epics of the 20th
century.

Gorillas in Our Midst
Rwanda recently celebrated the fifth edition of Kwita Izina, its annual gorilla naming ceremony. Coincidentally, 2009 is being championed by the United Nations as the "Year of the Gorilla". An informative and fascinating account of the Professor's recent participation in Kwita Izina and communing with the mountain gorillas in the Parc de Volcanoes in Rwanda.

Beware of
the
Toothpick
Fish
The canero
or toothpick
fish is a
parasitic
freshwater
catfish
found in the
Amazon River
and has a
reputation
among the
natives as
the most
feared fish
in its
waters, even
over
piranha.
Eel-shaped,
translucent
and only a
few
centimeters
long, they
are nearly
impossible
to see in
the water.
With
lightning
speed, this
parasite
will lodge
itself into
a body
cavity
(primarily
fish gills),
gnaw a hole
towards a
major blood
vessel and
gorge itself
with a
frequently
fatal effect
on its small
prey. Can
this
notorious
"penis fish"
actually
swim up your
urethra
while you
urinate?
Gasp!
