COMMUNITY
In the Islamic tradition, alms giving and voluntarily spending one’s wealth in charity have
always held a pinnacle place; they are integral to one’s faith. Sharing one’s blessings with others, particularly those less fortunate, is however, a gesture that is never more encouraged than during the holy month of Ramadan.
There are many altruistic initiatives in Jordan, most of which operate with a particular Ramadan agenda. One of such is Al Fawanees, a social project set up specifically with the Kingdom’s underprivileged children in mind, including orphans, children with special needs and physical disabilities, and child refugees. Al Fawanees, literally meaning, “lanterns”— a common sight in the Middle East during Ramadan — is said to symbolize hope.
Projected to become an umbrella organization for Ramadan charities, Al Fawanees seeks to share the Ramadan spirit and Eid joy by hosting 20 Iftar events spread out across Jordan’s 12 governorates, with each event catering to about 100 children. These Iftars rely on private and corporate sponsorship, with each child requiring a sponsorship fee of around 30 JOD.
According to Project Director Marc Zenkner, at each Iftar, a child will have access to a special dinner, a range of games and activities, and — for the first time — they’ll also receive a personalized Ramadan gift made possible via interviews that the Al Fawanees conducted by volunteers. The team took pains in compiling a Ramadan gift wish list, now viewable on their Website.
Apart from providing financial donations, if you’re looking to increase your rewards for good works and have at least an afternoon a week to dedicate your time to, you
can also volunteer and participate in Al Fawanees’ upcoming
Ramadan events. If you’re interested in
serving the community and helping those in need not just during Ramadan,
but also throughout the year, then Family Kitchen is
Corporate donors can help Al Fawanees by becoming a “partner.” This means providing venues, discounts on toy gifts, media and logistics, or by making a donation of 20,000 JOD and above. Businesses can also become an Al Fawanees sponsor by pledging a lesser sponsorship.
The holy month of Ramadan is all about charity and giving back; Go’s Annisa Rochadiat uncovers
two organizations that are doing their all
Acting Charitablyanother worthwhile cause. Founded in March 2009, this initiative aims to feed the poor and needy by distributing food — primarily surplus and untouched — from restaurants, hotels, and banquets in Amman. Apart from surplus food distribution, Family Kitchen also helps give out clothes, heaters in winter, and medical assistance to disadvantaged communities living in Jordan’s poverty pockets, including refugee camps.
During last year’s Ramadan, Family Kitchen fed no less than 3,000 people throughout the month with just 20 volunteers and eight participating restaurants. Each night, volunteers would come
collect untouched leftover Iftar buffets from various hotels and restaurants and transported them to selected distribution points.
Since earlier this year, the kitchen has helped distribute meals and food packages sponsored by the Crowne Plaza Amman, Tkiyet Um Ali, and the Jordanian Alliance Against Hunger in Manara and Karak. They’ve also aided in the delivery of baby supplies, clothes, and toys to underprivileged communities in Madaba. With charitable activities taking place almost every month, Family Kitchen tells us that volunteers are always welcome all year round, especially those who are able to provide logistical support like transportation. So get involved this month, but carry on the good deeds throughout the year, thanks to great organizations such as these!
Al Fawanees is constantly on the lookout for dedicated and passionate people as partners in their venture to help disadvantaged children. So if you’d like to get involved, log onto the Web and find one of their many online voices, starting with, www.al-fawanees.com.
If you’d like to help out with the Family Kitchen as well, you can find more information about them on their Facebook page, www.facebook.com/FamilyKitchen2009. You can also contact the organizers Jacki on (079) 748 4115, or Bandar on (078) 834 5370.
A child will have access to a special dinner, a range of games, and — for the first time — a Ramadan gift

Not exactly what you'd call “passenger friendly”...
August’s Hot vs. Not
Popular Jordanian comedy sketch show, Bath Bayakha (as seen on YouTube), will be on TV this Ramadan! Airing on Roya TV, each day will bring a new hilarious episode — fun for all. And for those of you who want to re-watch your fave clips, each skit will be put online as well. Check out the trailer for their upcoming episodes on YouTube now @ tiny.cc/zexam.

Electricity IssuesIt’s likely that air conditioning has become your new best friend while the bill collector is now your sworn enemy, as summer also means all-day AC use, racking up quite impressive electricity charges. This also means regular power outages as the grid scrambles to power the city’s homes, malls, and office. Not so fun in the stifling heat!
overseas VisitorsSummer usually means friends and family who live overseas come back to Jordan to visit. It’s a time of bonding, catching up, and making new memories. Plus with ramadan times reducing everyone's office hours, there’s more free time to get together and enjoy each other’s good company.
Al Fresco eveningsBeautiful sunsets and starry nights are a great part of this season, as summer in Jordan means enjoying the plethora of outdoor venues around the kingdom. Whether you like your lounges, cafés, restaurants, or nightspots, choice is ample and views of the city are often spectacular.
Summer in JOrdan
Traffic JamsSummer also means a massive influx of regional and international tourists, which means loads more people in the streets and traffic just about anywhere you want to go. It’s not easy to stay calm while stuck in horrendous traffic, especially with the blistering heat, but just try to remember that patience is a virtue.
Premise: Some things just don’t change, especially in Amman.Lesson: But that’s why we love it here!

Late
St ne
wS
Go sat down with Greg malouf, consulting chef of the city’s new restaurant, Turquoise, to discuss the love of Middle Eastern cuisine
make it look attractive, and give it its rightful place. This is partly why I’m here in Amman, to preach the word on the fact that Middle Eastern food can look beautiful, creative, and architectural.
Go: how did you land in Jordan?Gm: The owners of the Landmark hotel saw my book, Turquoise, and fell in love with it. They had a space in their hotel and thought it would be wonderful to have a Turquoise-style restaurant, so they got in touch with me. This is a great opportunity for us to lay some foundations for a style of food.
It’s not that easy setting up a restaurant as a consulting chef. It’s finding the right staff and training them, finding good produce, and setting the right restaurant culture, to make it a success. But I think we’re headed in the right direction.
Go: Turquoise is a recipe/travel book focusing on Turkish cuisine. why Turkey?Gm: Turkey is a beautiful country; it’s interesting and historical, especially for food. Any sort of food you become involved with in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, has its origins in the Ottoman Empire.
So my former wife Lucy and I (we now travel and do books together) went to Turkey to discover this rich food culture. We traveled to the different regions to find out how different they are, and how they’re connected to the Middle East. Many common threads link the back to the Ottoman Empire, so we ended up with the book Turquoise.
Go: Tell us about the recipes.Gm: They’re my interpretation of
Go: what led you to be a chef?Greg malouf: My appetite, I think, is probably the best way I could describe getting into this business. As a kid I had a huge appetite — it’s not that I was always hungry, I just loved eating. I grew up in Australia, born to Lebanese parents, so everything was centered around the table; we were always surrounded by beautiful Lebanese food. My love of family values and wonderful food eventually grew into a craft and then into a way of life.
Go: so it was thanks to your parents' influence?Gm: Yes. I had a wonderful childhood with a few generations living in the house. My grandma and aunts were always tinkering away, rolling pastries or stuffing meats, so my fascination for that grew. Then I went to cookery school and learned the basic techniques — especially French and Italian — and from there I decided to travel and get first hand knowledge of the world’s great cuisines.
When I came back to Melbourne, I decided I wanted to put my heritage in a better light. I was taking Middle Eastern food out of its comfort zone of “falafel” and “hummus,” to put it on a pedestal,
HeAdlIneS
classic Turkish food. Most of the dishes we saw were in people’s houses — we were very lucky to be invited into a lot of homes to have home-cooked meals; that is where the heartbeat of food is.
While eating, taking notes, going into the kitchens, and talking to the people who cook the food, I got a better understanding of how things were prepared. Then I went away and decided to make a bold interpretation of some of the dishes.
Go: what's your all-time fave food?Gm: It’d be childhood stuff. My mom is no longer around, but if she was making kibbeh nayeh, I’d drop everything and go and visit to try and pig out on that. If I were stuck on a desert island I’d want a plate of kibbeh nayeh, some labaneh, with some zaytoon. I’d be happy to eat that everyday for the rest of my life!

no month brings out the communal spirit in us more
than Ramadan does. Families and friends gather around the dining table for Iftars and pre-dawn meals, enjoying each others company and sharing stories. Ramadan evenings come to life with various post-Iftar events, known as “Sahra,” organized for people to get together and unwind after a hard day’s work and fast. Fortunately, there’s always a place to go in the city to celebrate the month’s festivities, and here are some noteworthy joints for you to check out for a great get-together and cool entertainment to help rejuvenate your energy and spirit for the day ahead.

If you’re fed up of those coffee house chains that spread like wildfire, then Turtle Green may just be for you. this place, which boasts a trendy modern design, is popular with those who like a chilled out atmosphere while they enjoy their teas. And if it’s tea selection you want, it’s selection you get; they’ve got every sort of leaf, fruit, herbal flavor, and combination, as well as a section of beverage styles. Plus their selection of snacks are the ultimate side to your yummy beverage of choice.
Tea is a drink that has been enjoyed for millennia by many
cultures across the globe (scholars mark the earliest record of tea consumption at 1000 BCE!), and still remains a daily staple for most people. Amman is home to some fantastic and original teahouses and lounges that are perfect for enjoying a hot cup of steeped tea or a glass of flavored iced tea any time of day. So whether you like it hot or cold, with sugar, milk, or pure, check out these great local venues for your tea fix.
What better way to start the day than a good healthy breakfast complemented by a hot cup of energizing tea? the Sheraton Amman’s Green Lounge serves up a light morning meal — think pastries, fruit salads, and fresh juices — with an assortment of flavorful teas. And to ensure that your selection is infused perfectly for you, each tea is served with a “Perfect tea timer” — three hourglass timers that are set to different times that correspond to infusion strength.
the elegant Foyer Lounge at Amman’s Four Seasons Hotel is a favorite among those looking for traditional english teatime. each afternoon from 4:00pm to 7:00pm guests can enjoy a Royal Afternoon Tea or High Tea, which includes a top selection of teas — everything from Darjeeling to English Breakfast to Flowering Herbal Teas — along with snacks, like finger sandwiches and sweet scones.

Located in Um Uthaina, Funtastic is a children’s “edutainment”
center — a day care, a play place, a summer camp, and a party center in one, catering to kids ages one to nine. Each of Funtastic’s sections focuses on a child’s development stage, physically, mentally, and socially. The Comfyland experience coordinates muscles and balance, using senses of sight, sound, and touch. The Theater encourages a child’s growth in expression; public speaking overcomes shyness.
Professionally trained art teachers offer fine art training, while in the messy Art Room kids can cut loose and paint on the walls. My son spent the whole time in the Lego Zone enjoying the pieces from the Lego Educational Collection. While the Science Club uses a hands-on experiments from Spain called FunScience.

biggest trampoline in town, and my personal favorite: a traffic city for bikes complete with a traffic circle — training the next generation of drivers in its proper usage.
Edutainment for kids is trending worldwide, and Funtastic has become the regional example of how it’s done. After the birth of her third child, founder Karen Kassis left her career to spend more time with her children. Looking for a place to have a party, she found all the places booked, overpriced, and offering little redeeming value. But Karen knew there had to be an alternative; after careful research Funtastic opened in 2008.
As Funtastic’s name grew, Karen built trust with families and a stellar reputation with kindergartens. The center has also become the focus of franchising opportunity as fans have inquired, wanting a Funtastic of their own. Try it today and you’ll understand why!
- A fully equipped birthday area that can accommodate up to 50 children.
- Air conditioning — a very important factor in the summer heat!
- A sunny and inviting coffee shop for parents (with real coffee!).
- free wiFi to work while you wait.

no longer must those who delight in designing hand-embellished photo albums bring the supplies from out of the country.
Maha Al Labadi, founder and creative director of She Can, which opened only four months ago, has fulfilled the whimsical fancies of ladies looking to make family memories tangible.
She Can is located behind Robina Studios, across from the JETT Bus terminal at 7th Circle. The entrance is clever and inviting, and after climbing the spiral staircase, the first-time visitor is surrounded by visual delights: a well-ordered riot of color, coordination, and creativity-inspiring tools of the craft. Every square centimeter is covered with supplies, a dizzying variety of papers, decorations, ribbons, and finished products. One wall is filled with dozens of hues of custom-dyed buttons. Blinging rhinestones are stacked in jars in graduated shades from pastel to jewel-tones. It is crafter eye-candy. All these bits and bobs unite with the goal to make memories tangible, framing life-events of a family heritage.
She Can was the quickly realized dream of Maha Al Labadi. Maha studied and worked in graphic design, and enjoyed using visual layering of images in advertising. This technique, she discovered, was much like digital scrapbooking. Yet, she eventually had enough with working on a computer; she longed for more hands-on involvement and felt that one-dimensional design alone was limiting. She began to teach herself how to scrapbook, going to Dubai for supplies when she couldn’t find the basics here. One day, she had had enough and decided to quit her job and pursue a dream that wasn’t all that clear even to her.
After a year of perfecting her craft in her bedroom, persevering through a cycle of trial and error and selling at bazaars, ACE hardware at mecca mall offered her a large area to display her custom-made creations. It was an instant hit. When she broached the idea of her own store to her siblings, they encouraged her to go for it; her brother Taher gave her the name “She Can,” as in, “She Can Do It,” as testimony to Maha’s perseverance.
Maha’s family was completely behind her. “Our family bonds are tightly woven,” says her sister and manager, Mais. “In our culture it is not often that a family supports the individual dreams of a daughter, but we could all see she was passionate about this new hobby and wanted

to encourage her.” Indeed, all five of her siblings and parents were involved in supporting Maha’s endeavor with their skills: Taher with funding, Maher and Samer with accounting, artist Muna’s experience, architect Mai and her mother with emotional support. Their home quickly became a warehouse. When Maha became the Jordanian representative for US scrapbooking giants, soon boxes of materials began piling up in her room. “It was like opening birthday presents; I played with every single piece, jumping up and down like a kid.”
She Can’s success has taken Maha by surprise, and word-of-mouth has supplied new

tailors and jewelry makers have discovered her wares, and teen entrepreneur Alia Shaban was one of She Can’s earliest and most vocal cheerleaders: “My mom and I drove around Sweifieh searching for it, when we finally found it and climbed the staircase, we were in awe: was this place for real in Amman? I don’t scrapbook, but I use the yarn, buttons, and ribbons for the bracelets I sell at Souk JARA (fawzi Malouf St.). Maha was really helpful and it is hard not to be creative surrounded by the variety of fun stuff available!”
customers as fast as they could “like” She Can’s Facebook page. But more than a store, Maha’s vision for She Can is to be a place to encourage a creative spark in children, an alternative way for the “PlayStation generation” to use their time productively. From the beginning, Maha has offered classes for kids and adults alike to give them the tools to express themselves. “I want kids to be proud of their identity, and see that each one, provided with the same materials, can come up with their own unique creation. I have seen it provide a healthy form of competition that leads to the satisfaction of excellence. Little boys who usually don’t sit still are so focused on their project that they don’t move. It hones their fine motor skills.”
Always with an eye out for new trends, Maha’s next step is to develop rubber stamps in Arabic calligraphy for greeting cards and albums. She has already had franchising inquiries from excited women in Egypt, Lebanon, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai. Her dream, however, is to open a huge local craft center, with room for all to express their creative energy through every medium: scrapbooking, painting, ceramics, knitting, quilting — a place to gather, talk, and inspire one another. Says Maha: “I want to change the culture of craft in Jordan. Come and try it yourself.”

Sweet TreatsGo stopped by The Delights Shop for a taste of their exquisite dates and chocolates, perfect for Ramadan and Eid giftingimages by: Ibraheem Shaheen
if you’ve been to City mall, then you’ve
definitely seen The Delights Shop. This charming little kiosk, located on the second floor of the mall, is the first thing you see when you pass the security check at the main entrance, and it’s likely caught your eye more than once thanks to the delicious looking chocolate covered dates and other sweet treats that sit proudly on display.
The Delights Shop specializes in “sweet affordable luxury” — exquisite and delicious medjool dates, which are exclusively grown and harvested here in the Jordan
Valley. But these are not your ordinary, everyday dates;
these are delectable, hand-dipped in rich
Belgian chocolate dates that come elegantly arranged in a beautiful gift box. Made with handpicked ingredients and an assortment of specially selected white and dark chocolates, these dates make for a truly memorable
Ramadan or Eid present. From flavorful dates rolled
in cocoa powder and filled with mandarin to delicate dark chocolate covered dates studded with pistachio, The Delights Shop boasts a wonderful selection that would please any sweet-loving palate. So if you’re looking for the perfect complement to your lovingly prepared Iftar meal, or if you’d like to pick up a gift that will definitely be enjoyed by all, stop by The Delights Shop and make your selection today.
in 1998, a family farm, known as the Progressive
Agricultural Investment Company (PAI), was set up in the Jordan Valley
to grow the Medjool date, known for its large size and delicious flavor. PAI
was the first of its kind in the kingdom — the only family farm producing a Jordanian product
that competed with the international market in terms of quality, price,
and packaging. As a pioneer in its field,
PAI expanded and set up The Delights Company for Dates & Chocolates
to fulfill the potential of the Medjool date. After
pairing the flavorful date with the Belgian
chocolate Belcolade, The Delights Shop was born!
NEED TO KNOWDates are the
ultimate healthy treat! Apart from
being rich in natural fibers, dates contain
nutrients like calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, and
more.

E very year, medical travellers from all over the world travel
all the way to Jordan just to benefit from the Kingdom’s state-of-the-art medical services and technologically advanced private hospitals. As a medical tourism hub, Jordan is ranked first in the Middle East and fifth the world over. In 2008, about 250,000 foreign patients were treated here alone, generating revenue of over a billion dollars. Jordan’s excellent reputation in medicine is also shared in the field of laser eye corrective surgery, commonly known as LASIK.
LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis. This entails a procedure that reshapes the cornea (the part of the eye that helps focus light to create an image on the retina), thus altering the focusing power of the eyes. It essentially

allows you to see better and become less dependent on your glasses and contacts, or even do away with them permanently.
The procedure can be done to correct farsightedness, nearsightedness, and/or astigmatism. With nearsighted patients, LASIK flattens the too-steep cornea, while on farsighted people, the laser creates a steeper cornea. For those with astigmatism, the irregular cornea is smoothened out into a more regular shape.
Although LASIK is the most commom laser vision corrective procedure, it isn’t the only possibility for those who’d like to improve their vision. There are other methods too, like IntraLASIK (all-laser LASIK), PRK, LASEK, and Epi-LASIK. And each of these varies in terms of risk profile, comfort level, and recovery time.

With flap procedures like LASIK and IntraLASIK, a thin corneal flap is lifted away from the underlying membranes and laser treatment is then placed on the exposed surface area (the stromal bed). The flap is repositioned over the stroma layer for healing. PRK, LASEK, and Epi-LASIK, on the other hand, are flapless procedures that differ based on the techniques used to remove the epithelium (or the superficial layer of the cornea).
Epi-LASIK is said to be the latest generation of LASIK procedure that combines the desirable features of the other methods, and is suitable for those with thin corneas or other abnormal cornea conditions. Experts also say Epi-LASIK allows for a more rapid visual recovery — about three to four days compared to seven days or more with PRK, or five to seven days with LASEK.
Within each category — flap and flapless — the procedures are similar in terms of speed of recovery, comfort level, and overall risk profile. The two categories, however, differ substantially when compared to one another. Even though the flapless procedure is the safest and most effective option, it’s less popular compared to the flap method. This is mainly due to greater post-operative discomfort, prolonged recovery time, and also possible retreatment associated with the former.
In some cases, choosing between the two procedures isn’t really an option, as those with corneas that are too thin for the flap procedure, would be recommended to undergo the flapless method instead. Regardless of the types of procedures, most experts agree that surgeon skill and experience, and the quality of care before and after a corrective eye surgery procedure are far more critical factors affecting the final outcome.
If you’re considering laser eye corrective surgery and you’re in Jordan, then consider yourself lucky — you’ve got quite the selection of top facilities specializing in eye care. However, as with any surgical procedure, it’s best to do your own research and speak with several doctors before moving forward with your method of choice.
Despite the fact that laser eye corrective
surgery has been gaining popularity
these days, not all those sporting eyeglasses or contacts are qualified
candidates
There are ocular concerns, on top of other factors, like
medical, psychological and occupational, that may lead to your being disqualified for surgery.
high-risk trauma patients like martial art enthusiasts and police officers, for instance,
may need careful consideration when it comes to selecting
the flapless procedure, as the flap may be
dislodged or damaged when the eye is exposed to severe trauma, even
years after surgery.
Special consideration may also apply to people suffering from diabetes, who are more prone to contracting infections
as they heal slower than others. Other than that, understanding the limitations and possible complications of laser corrective eye surgery
based on your own value system is key prior to
opting for the procedure. Don’t let your friends
or doctors pressure you into it!

treatment might just be for you. This natural therapy originating from Turkish spas, involves the use of Garra rufa, a special species of fish that feeds on, among other things, dead skin.
Doctor Fish is usually administered to the hands and/or feet, and has become a popular complementary addition to manicures and pedicures. The process entails submerging your limb(s) of choice into a bath containing several Garra rufa and sitting back and relaxing while the fish do all the work cleaning your skin. They clear away your body’s dead skin, thus leaving healthy skin to grow in its place. Already enjoyed in such countries as Japan, Belgium, the Netherlands, Singapore, India, Thailand, the US, and the UK, this unique treatment is spreading rapidly across the globe, with Jordan joining the trend just a few months ago.
Apart from being a desired cosmetic beautifying therapy, Doctor Fish is especially sought after by those who suffer from various skin disorders, like psoriasis and eczema. Since these ailments are characterized by dermatitis (or inflamed skin) and overgrowth of skin cells, this remedy is an effective treatment as these fish specifically target the problematic skin areas.
If Doctor Fish is something that intrigues you, why not try the treatment yourself? Book an appointment with Spa Time now, and we guarantee this is something you’ll be telling all your friends about!
from facials, to body treatments (including wraps, floats, and exfoliation), to spa packages, Spa Time is a fully equipped and staffed wellness facility offering it all. Whether you’d like to spend hours indulging on a full day of therapies, or simply need a quick manicure, head to this center for all your pampering needs.

diary OF an adReNaLiNe JUNKieA thrill-seeker’s adventures by Go’s Karen Simon
Wadi WadingP rior to going on this trip, I
had heard a lot about Wadi Hasa from the outdoor lovers
of this country — “It’s so green!” “It’s really tropical.” “It doesn’t even look like Jordan!” — so you could say that I was pretty excited about finally going there for myself. The Tropical Desert guides, Team Go, and the other members of the hiking group for that day, gathered at the Tropical Desert’s office by 3rd Circle at 7:30am on a Friday morning and off we headed.
Wadi Hasa is about a two hour drive from Amman. When you reach it, it doesn’t look like much at first; the landscape is mostly arid and rocky. However, once you descend into the gorge, another world opens up — one of winding rivers, bamboo forests, and small rushing waterfalls. They weren’t kidding when they said this place was tropical!
After a couple of descents down two natural waterslides (major fun!), you get to the first large pool of water, after which, you eventually arrive at a spot where it’s deep enough to go cliff jumping (that’s right, cliff jumping in the middle of a canyon!). The rest of the trail involves wading in water from shin- to chest-deep, with a few occasions of outright swimming, and some bouldering when negotiating the rocks. It’s a great way to spend a summer afternoon, especially as the wadi’s water keeps you cool and the canyon’s walls block out the sun (just be prepared to deal with insects and even crabs).
My tip: Be careful of the slippery rocks! As lots of the rocks you’ll be walking on will be underwater, some will be extra slippery (particularly the greenish moss covered ones). So make sure to plant each step firmly to avoid slipping. If you’re wading next to a rock face or between trees, you can hold on to the walls or branches for support and balance.

If you want adventure but haven’t been to Wadi Hasa, you should definitely check it out. Tropical Desert is by far the best team to go with, as the guides know the wadi inside and out. Plus they’re a fun group that still makes safety a priority. So find out when they’re heading there next, and get ready for an awesome experience.
Go got together again with the great guides of Tropical Desert and headed out to Jordan’s longest canyon, Wadi Hasa, for a day of wet wadi hiking

If you’re planning to take along any electronics with you, like your phone or your camera, be sure to bring them in a waterproof bag or pouch as they will definitely get wet otherwise.
other good things to consider bringing or wearing are:- sturdy walking shoes- comfortable clothes that
you don’t mind getting dirty, and that won’t be too heavy when weighed down by water
- sunscreen- a hat or some form of
head covering- a backpack for
carrying the water and sandwiches provided for the day
Life jackets are provided by Tropical Desert, and if need be they also carry a first aid kit.

reSPectInG nAtureeco-tourism is a wonderful thing, but an integral part of it should be nature’s conservationIf you’re planning to try these outdoor adventures, remember that one of the reasons these trips are so great is that you get to visit beautiful, wild locations, mostly untouched by human development. It’s important to respect your surroundings once you’re out in the wadis so that they remain pristine for all to enjoy. this means not leaving any trash behind you (or even picking up trash you may find), not defacing the rock faces with graffiti or other markings, and as much as possible, leaving the flora and fauna that surrounds you undisturbed.
Hike reAdyTropical Desert will provide you with the basics for the hike, but you should also bring a few things of your own
NEED TO KNOWAs you will
get fully drenched during this trip, it’s
a good idea to bring a change of clothes that
you can leave on the bus. You can change into these before making
the return trip to Amman.

At some point during our road test I wondered what type of glorious food we were having for Iftar, and how could I make the eating experience even more festive than usual? So I passed by Crumz Bakery and Café in Dabouq to buy some desserts. I was greeted with a large variety to pick and choose from, which turned out difficult as everything looked tasty, but I could only buy so much! However, I’m happy to report that once we dug into my selection during Iftar, Crumz did not disappoint at all. Crumz Bakery & Café, Jum’ah Al Shibli St., Dabouq, (06) 5413230

5 reASonS to WAnt the LEXuS:
1. Folding hardtop: nothing beats the drop
top experience.2. Gearbox: Seamless, it goes through gears
without a single judder.3. reliability: Toyota’s recall aside, Lexus cars are among the most reliable cars on the
planet, period.4. ride: tames the
roughest of roads with total ease.
5. Feel good factor: A solid 8.5 out of 10.
S ummer, the season where everything rises; heat, social outings, and in this case, my eyebrows. Allow me to explain exactly
why my eyebrows became part of the group mentioned above. On an average summer day, I was handed over the car keys to a new Lexus iS 300C, but this is not your average car, actually it’s far from it. You see, this Lexus has all you need, and then some.
First of all, it’s a convertible with a folding hardtop, which tucks away in just 20 seconds. Second of all, it has a 3.0-liter V6 engine, which provides ample power on demand and makes the needle seamlessly span the speedometer. The list of pros goes on and on. My initial eyebrow raising begins.
I walked around the car looking at its exterior design; all latest Lexus models use a design philosophy called L Finesse. To sum it up, it’s the subtle use of creases and curves around the exterior, which supposedly creates an emotional bond between driver and car. As a car enthusiast it was fun looking for those details — at some point I think the car even winked at me. Overall the iS 300C’s design sits just between fluid, smooth lines and edgy, sharp accents.
The interior of this Lexus is elegant and user-friendly. Aesthetically, it greets you with high quality materials that are smooth in look and feel, while elegant lines echo the exterior. The car we got to experience, demonstrated luxury without a drop of wood; refreshing. Ergonomically, everything is exactly where you want it. And since this is a Japanese car — and a Lexus — cutting edge technology is its nature, such as the large touch screen in the middle of the dashboard, or the 14-speaker mark Levinson sound system. Not to mention the leather seat felt just right as it provided support and a cosseting feel.
I placed the keyfob into a nearby cup-holder, and with my foot on the brake pedal, I pressed the engine start button. The speedometer and RPM needles lit up first and flicked playfully, then the engine awoke, lighting up the instrument panel with an elegant florescent white color. Once I got familiar with the car, it was time to head out; I needed a place that had all types of roads, which are quiet, not too far, yet had nice scenery. Then it struck me, what would be greater than to head off to Dabouq for a spin?
Cruising comes naturally in this Lexus; it gives you the feeling that it was built for this. Whether the roof is up or down, you feel a sense of occasion and delight. The engine picks up speed effortlessly as the car glides on the streets — flowing without issue above potholes, uneven patchwork, and speed bumps (not to mention the dreaded home-made ones). It can handle any road imperfection with ease. Now my eyebrows were staying up.
The more time I spent getting acquainted with this car the more I was impressed with what it has to offer. Usually there is a rule of thumb that convertibles have terrible rigidity; turn a corner enthusiastically and the car can heave and shudder as the body displays the lack of a roof. But this convertible is something different — with a simple press of a button the roof stows away. Turn that same corner and it steers through it unscathed, without a slight bother.
Cruising aside, now it was time to explore the iS 300C’s playful side — which was glimpsed during the engine start sequence. I wondered if the sculpted paddle shifters performed as good as they looked. So, I shifted the handle of the six-speed automatic gearbox into the “S” mode. I headed out onto Dabouq’s twisty roads to see and my, was I pleased! By this time my eyebrows where at the back of my head.
The bond had undoubtedly been established, but sadly it was time to leave our Dabouq proving grounds and head back to the dealer. I returned the car keys and looked at the Lexus one last time and sighed, I swear it winked at me once more. What a charmer.

Amid the hustle and bustle — and the chaotic traffic — of Sweifieh sits the Park Plaza.
Much of it is still under construction, while many of the upper floors are dedicated to onsite parking for customers. These large, open spaces are perfect not just for parking cars, but for go-karting too! Until now anyone wanting to indulge in a spot of racing in the city has had to travel out to the karting center on Queen Alia
Airport Road — a great venue but a little too far for some.
Now Park Plaza offers the thrill of go-karting in the center of the city. One half of the 5th floor parking lot has been converted into Raceways
kArtiNg sAFetyGo-karting can be a whole lot of fun, but keep these tips in mind to ensure everyone’s safety- It doesn’t matter if you
think you’re a racing legend, you should always wear a helmet. Accidents can happen!
- Loose clothing and sneakers are the ideal things to wear when go-karting to ensure your comfort and ease in driving.
- If your go-kart starts making unusual noises or vibrating abnormally, stop the kart and call for help. excessive noise or vibration is generally a warning of loose or worn parts.
- Double-check your kart’s tires to see if they’ve got the right amount of pressure. If they aren’t the right pressure, the go-kart can become unstable, affecting your braking and steering.
Karting’s center, with lines of painted tires lining the floor, demarcating the winding track. It’s not a huge race space, but it’s certainly ample for an afternoon of racing. A possible expansion could be in the pipeline too, meaning up to double the racing space. The company has 12 cars, and up to eight drivers can race at any one time.
Special deals are offered too — buy four, ten-minute slots (for 32 JOD) and get a fifth for free. Group bookings are possible, and again special prices (depending on the size of the group) can be arranged. Just make sure that you take your race mindset off with your helmet; don’t try anything adventurous in the traffic below on your way home!

ScAn here for WeBSIte
Jordan is a country offering up a vast array of different environments and climates; here we can find everything from arid
deserts and lush wetlands to sprawling mountain ranges and forested highlands. One of the foremost areas of this latter region is the Ajloun Forest Reserve, located northwest of Amman.
Founded in 1987, this reserve — sitting on 13km2 of thriving woodland — was set up by the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature (RSCN) to protect the area’s ecological importance. As less than 1% of the Kingdom’s land mass is covered by open woodland, the Ajloun region — with its flourishing evergreen oaks, carob, wild pistachio, and wild strawberry trees — accounts for a significant part of Jordan’s forested area. Plus, with a wide range of animal biodiversity that includes wild boar, jackals, red foxes, Indian crested porcupines, striped hyenas, and wolves to name just a few, the Ajloun Forest Reserve is a critical sanctuary for the country’s otherwise endangered species. And in 2000, BirdLife international and the RSCN declared that the forest was one of Jordan’s important Bird Areas. The reserve is even home to a captive breeding program that is aiming to reintroduce into the wild the locally extinct roe deer.
Note: Plan to start any guided tour at 8:00 am, except for the Rockrose Trail and Soap Maker’s Trail, which can start at 12:00 pm.
In an effort to support the local community, the RSCN has also established the Soap House, the Calligraphy House, and the Biscuit House. these initiatives are providing
hundreds of jobs to the local women of the surrounding
villages, encouraging the area’s sustainable development. The Soap house — already popular among Ammanis, thanks to the
shop off of rainbow St. — produces local
beauty products using natural ingredients like olive
oil, fruits, herbs, and even Dead Sea salts, while
the calligraphy house teaches visitors about the art of Arabic calligraphy and sells prints, t-shirts, and
other script-related pieces. The biscuit house
produces foodstuffs from olive crisps, to sesame energy
bars, and sweet cookies, utilizing ingredients that can be grown in the surrounding areas.
these three “houses” can be found in rasun, Ajloun’s
neighboring village, and are worth the drive if
you want to learn about this community, its history, and the

Mar elias to ajloun Castlethis is an optional continuation to the Prophet’s trail and it’s not for the faint of heart, as the trek will take you all the way out to Ajloun castle several kilometers away. Guided trail, 10km Estimated time: 5 – 6 hrs
Ajloun forest reserve(079) 906 2210www.rscn.org.jo
The Ajloun Forest Reserve is a critical sanctuary for the country’s otherwise endangered species
The RSCN thus created this reserve to spread awareness about this region’s significance, while creating a retreat for those living in Jordan or visiting from abroad. Ajloun’s Forest Reserve is open for daily visits (ranging from 2 – 7 JOD, depending on if you’re a local or not) or for overnight stays in one of their five wooden cabins or ten tented bungalows (check their Website for detailed pricing). This is the perfect place to escape to if you’re trying to get away from the city and want a rural and rustic experience. Or if you feel like corporate life is getting your team down and that they could benefit from a nature retreat, this sanctuary — with its function and meeting facilities — is an ideal solution.
A stay at the reserve means exploring peaceful forest trails, seeing gorgeous flora (the wild strawberry tree with its vivid colors is particularly amazing), spotting unique fauna (the roe deer are known to come out in the early morning), dining al fresco (a variety of meals are available, but must be booked ahead of time), and simply enjoying the fresh air. If summer has got you missing the cooler climates and natural greenery, a visit to the RSCN Ajloun Forest Reserve may be just what you need.
NEED TO KNOW even if you’re
visiting during the summer, because the reserve is in Jordan’s
north highlands, it gets cold at night! consider bringing extra blankets
or sweaters, jackets, and thick socks!

Sitting high above the town of Ajloun, atop Jabal Auf, the 12th
century Ajloun Castle (or Qal’at Ar Rabad, Arabic for “Hilltop Castle”) still stands proudly today. Built in 1184 –1185 CE by izz Al Din Usama — a general and nephew of Salah Ad Din Al Ayyubi (better known as Saladin) — this fortress was built to contain the expanding Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem and as a direct response to their building of the Belvoir Fortress on the opposite side of the valley. Ajloun Castle also stood as a base to control and develop Ajloun’s iron mines, as well as protect the communication routes between Jordan and Syria.
One of a chain of forts that lit beacons at night to pass signals from the Euphrates all the way to Cairo, the fortress at Ajloun is a great example of Arab and Islamic
When you look about the fortress at Ajloun, you may notice that some of the stones with which the castle was built, have crosses carved into them. According to a local tradition, told by a 13th century Arab historian, an ancient monastery once stood on this site, and was inhabited by a christian named Ajloun. When the monastery fell into ruin, the castle took its place as well as the name of the monk.

military architecture. The original castle was built as a rectangle with four square towers that had arrow slits incorporated into its thick walls — these were ideal for protection by archers. Qal’at Ar Rabad also boasts a south side entrance, which was once protected by a surrounding moat that averaged 16m in width, with a depth of up to 15m. This huge structure dominated a large part of the northern Jordan Valley and the main passages — Wadi Kufranjah, Wadi Rajeb, and Wadi Al Yabes — that led to it.
Today, this site is well worth the visit. Much of the structure has been restored and visitors can enjoy exploring the castle’s many chambers, stairwells, and towers. Jordan’s Department of Antiquities has also set up a small yet detailed museum within the fortress, which reveals fascinating facts about the castle itself as well as the people that once inhabited this locale and its surrounding areas.
As the weather is still great, August is a good time to make the journey up to Ajloun Castle. So, if you’re in need of a dose of history, check out this amazing centuries-old stronghold.

neeD To Know
vieiLLe viLLe Geneva’s ancient Vieille Ville (or “old town”) is
home to some of the city’s most celebrated sites, like the Barbier-Mueller Museum (housing over 7,000 historical pieces), the Cathédrale St. Pierre (a 12th century cathedral and John calvin’s adopted church), and the Maison Tavel (Geneva’s oldest house, from the 1300s). A stroll through the Vieille Ville today, means navigating cobblestoned streets, relaxing at cozy terraces, and shopping at great antiques stores. the old town is surrounded by medieval ramparts so despite being by Geneva’s most popular shopping district, it feels separate and cozier than the city.
CArouge Despite being landlocked and hundreds of
kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea, carouge offers a little taste of Southern europe in the middle of Alp country. once a small city ruled by the kingdom of Sardinia — thus the distinctly Mediterranean feel and chessboard design of this suburb — today carouge is a hub for stylish boutiques, artisans’ shops, and trendy restaurants. And at night it transforms into a nightlife spot for those who prefer smaller venues. nicknamed the “Greenwich Village of Geneva,” this turin-esque area is worth the detour to see a village within a city.
pArC de LA perLe du LAC found on the right bank (or rive droite) of Lake
Geneva, the Parc de la Perle du Lac is one of the city’s most beautiful natural areas. A sprawling garden of lush flora — including centuries-old trees — this park offers visitors views of france’s Mont Blanc and the lake’s Jet d’Eau, as well as a lakeside respite from Geneva’s city center. Also home to several museums, a university, and a popular restaurant, the park is a favorite among all. fun trivia: the park’s name comes from rolex founder hans Wilsdorf’s wife, who said, “ceci est la perle du lac!” (or “this is the pearl of the lake!”) upon seeing this spot’s view of Lac Léman.

S ituated on the southwestern part of switzerland, along the Lac Léman, Geneva
is arguably the world’s smallest metropolis. Yet despite its size, this is a global city, a financial hub, and a center for diplomacy. Inhabited for millennia, it was during the Middle Ages that Geneva became a prosperous city-state — the city’s ancient ramparts and defensive walls still stand proudly. Today, Geneva is multicultural; full of history and art for those antiquities buffs, as well as great shopping, trendy cafés, and a pumping nightlife for those modern jetsetters. This is the perfect destination if you’re looking for europe in a bite-size format.

Corporate donors can help Al Fawanees by becoming a “partner.” This means providing venues, discounts on toy gifts, media and logistics, or by making a donation of 20,000 JoD and above. Businesses can also become an Al Fawanees “sponsor” by pledging a lesser sponsorship.
The holy month of Ramadan is all about charity and giving back; Go’s annisa rochadiat uncovers
two organizations that are doing their all
Acting Charitably
CSR
AUG. 2011 | 61
in the Islamic tradition, alms giving and voluntarily spending one’s wealth in charity have
always held a pinnacle place; they are integral to one’s faith. Sharing one’s blessings with others, particularly those less fortunate, is however, a gesture that is never more encouraged than during the holy month of Ramadan.
There are many altruistic initiatives in Jordan, most of which operate with a particular Ramadan agenda. One of such is Al Fawanees, a social project set up specifically with the Kingdom’s underprivileged children in mind, including orphans, children with special needs and physical disabilities, and child refugees. Al Fawanees, literally meaning, “lanterns”— a common sight in the Middle East during Ramadan — is said to symbolize hope.
Projected to become an umbrella organization for Ramadan charities, Al Fawanees seeks to share the Ramadan spirit and Eid joy by hosting 20 Iftar events spread out across Jordan’s 12 governorates, with each event catering to about 100 children. These Iftars rely on private and corporate sponsorship, with each child requiring a sponsorship fee of around 30 JOD.
According to Project Director Marc Zenkner, at each Iftar, a child will have access to a special dinner, a range of games and activities, and — for the first time — they’ll also receive a personalized Ramadan gift made possible via interviews that the Al Fawanees conducted by volunteers. The team took pains in compiling a Ramadan gift wish list, now viewable on their Website.
Apart from providing financial donations, if you’re looking to increase your rewards for good works and have at least an afternoon a week to dedicate your time to, you
can also volunteer and participate in Al Fawanees’ upcoming
Ramadan events. If you’re interested in
serving the community and helping those in need not just during Ramadan,
but also throughout the year, then Family Kitchen is another
worthwhile cause. Founded in
March 2009, this initiative aims to feed the poor and needy by distributing food — primarily surplus and untouched — from restaurants, hotels, and banquets in Amman. Apart from surplus food distribution, Family Kitchen also helps give out clothes, heaters in winter, and medical assistance to disadvantaged communities living in Jordan’s poverty pockets, including refugee camps.
During last year’s Ramadan, Family Kitchen fed no less than 3,000 people throughout the month with just 20 volunteers and eight participating restaurants. Each night, volunteers would come collect untouched leftover Iftar
buffets from various hotels and restaurants and transported them to selected distribution points.
Since earlier this year, the kitchen has helped distribute meals and food packages sponsored by the Crowne Plaza Amman, Tkiyet Um Ali, and the Jordanian Alliance Against hunger in Manara and Karak. They’ve also aided in the delivery of baby supplies, clothes, and toys to underprivileged communities in Madaba. With charitable activities taking place almost every month, Family Kitchen tells us that volunteers are always welcome all year round, especially those who are able to provide logistical support like transportation. So get involved this month, but carry on the good deeds throughout the year, thanks to great organizations such as these!

if you’re a faithful Facebook user you’ve likely seen their wall
posts. One Love Jordan is a fervent user of Facebook and other social media as a way to create awareness of the organization and its cause. Being a newcomer and lacking a big budget for things like publicity and fundraising events, they’re dependent on the free Internet-based media for getting word out on their name and mission.
One Love focuses its attention on the Kingdom’s orphans and children in need. Faten Al Malky, One Love’s founder, uses the idea that, “I am not to blame if there are vulnerable children in this world, but I will be if I do nothing about it,” to drive her cause. But the initiative’s goal is not just to give in a material sense, they also aim to provide for when it comes to less tangible means. In this non-profit organization’s vision, it
is equally important to offer friendship, hope, and comfort to those young in need. For these children to live their lives as other kids do, One
One Love accepts the donations of food — think milk, rice, flour, and the like — and bottled water and juices. Also, if you can spare them, the children always appreciate clothes, shoes, books, and toys. Monetary donations can also be made to One Love,
which allow them to organize their events and provide these disadvantaged kids with basics that most take for granted.
If you have other ideas for donations that you, your family, and/or your business, would like to make, contact One Love today!
In this organization’s vision, it is equally important to offer friendship, hope, and comfort to those young in need

Love believes in building upon their confidence and self-esteem.
Being new to the non-profit world, One Love still has ground to break when it comes to stable and continuous donations. For now they receive small amounts and must deal with what they have, but even with their limited means, One Love still manages to make a difference. For instance, one of their plans for this Ramadan is to prepare Iftar dinners for approximately four orphanages around Amman. On top of this, One Love is encouraging the donations of both new and used toys that can be given as Eid gifts.
Faten hopes that Ramadan will ignite further interest in One Love, especially for volunteers and contributions. Giving now can help One Love construct a steady base of volunteers and donations to help Jordan’s orphans all year round.

adult:A SMALL HoTeLROBERT OLEN BUTLERGROVERelease date: 6 August
Michael and Kelly Hayes, married for 24 years, decide to end their marriage. This

and Michael, the former ex-Russian mafia, the latter raised from childhood in a place known as The institute, which taught young children to become deadly assassins.

eight young Japanese women brought over from their homeland to San francisco to work as “Picture Brides” decades ago. In eight sections the novel examines the lives, hopes, dreams, and fears of these women, from the arduous boat journey over the Pacific, to meeting their new husbands, to adapting to life in an alien land. A masterful novel about the experience of uprooting oneself to a new culture, and the personal effect of the American Dream.reason to go read it: Spellbinding and thought provoking, this book opens a window on the experience of immigration and acculturation, as well as a touching portrayal of human experience.
tHe LeFtovers Tom Perrotta St. Martin’s Pressrelease Date: 30 August on 14 october the
town of Mapleton was struck by a strange, devastating disaster. not an earthquake or a hurricane but something unheard of — half of the town’s people disappeared into thin air. those left behind try to process what happened seeking various ways of coping.

a professor at Duke university, gave free iPods to her class in an experiment; she was criticized for wasting time and money. But when students began coming up with innovative ways to use the iPods the idea was seen as a way to improve learning. Davidson shows that the systems of work and education we use today are outmoded for the digital age. She looks at experiments that use video games to teach, and companies that use virtual environments to train staff, to show what technology can bring us.reason to go read it: While many complain about the time digital devices make us waste, this book cleverly assesses some of the useful applications that technology has.

lennY kRAVITZ BLaCK & white aMeRiCa ROADRuNNeR ReCORDS/ATLANTIC ReCORDS this is Lenny’s 9th album and was
originally supposed to be out earlier this year, but he wanted to take more time into what’s being called, “a journey of funk” — even well into the year, kravitz admitted, “I don’t know what it’s called yet”! however, in May, he said it was finished and listeners already had a chance to hear the first track, “come on Get It,” in an NBA commercial. typical of kravitz, it’s a sexy soulful performance with some awesome guitar, brass, and power-house vocals!release Date: 30 Augustreason to go listen to it: Lenny wants to get funky and this is funkin’ awesome!
neRoweLCoMe ReaLityMeRCuRy this is the debut album from uk dubstep
duo, who are already well-known in the electro world for producing tracks like 2009s dubstep hits “Act Like you know” and a remix of the Streets’ “Blinded by the Lights.” Welcome Reality’s lead singles have received widespread acclaim and are quickly climbing european charts. this is not an album you’re going to want to chill out to though; this is the one you’re going to stick on to get pumped before you head out — it’s fast, heavy, layered, and full of wobble!release Date: 15 Augustreason to go listen to it: Because nero placed in the top 15 of the BBC’s Sound of 2011 list, so consider this is an electro-fan must.
CD ReleasesGo’s music savant, Greg dukeson, gives us the lowdown — from rap to electro to rock — on the hot new albums out this month
FoUnTAInS oF WAYne SKy FULL oF hoLeS yeP ROC ReCORDS It was the mid-90s when Adam and
chris, two guys who met as freshmen in college decided to take their student band professional. their journey saw them take a short break and come back with a series of acoustic performances before deciding to put this 13-song all-new album out. one of the singles, “Someone’s Gonna Break your heart,” has cool lyrics, a nice hook, and shows they’ve come a long way since the MtV-championed “Stacey’s Mom”! “richie and ruben” is another track that, lyrically, you can’t help but like.release Date: 2 Augustreason to go listen to it: this is one of those lazy friday morning albums to get yourself lost in!
Red HoT CHIlI peppeRSi’M with yoUWARNeR BROS. It’s been four years since their last album Stadium Arcadium,
not an unusually large gap but rhcP’s longest. one of the main reasons behind that was the change in the lineup — guitarist John frusciante left and was replaced by Josh klinghoffer. the band says that they consider this to be a new beginning. the first track released is, “the Adventures of rain Dance Maggie,” and I personally think that you can hear a big difference; it’s undoubtedly rhcP, but with a slightly fresher sound.release Date: 30 Augustreason to go listen to it: If you’ve been an “on the fence” fan of rhcP, I think this will push you over to the “fan” side!
kAnYe WeST/JAY-ZwatCh the thRoNeDeF JAM It might sound like a new thing to have
kanye and Jay-Z working together but, if you look back at kanye’s early career, you’ll find that he first rose to fame as a producer for Roc-A-Fella Records and achieved industry recognition as the producer on Jay-Z’s The Blueprint. the two have journeyed separately but have come together for this incredible collaboration that includes guest vocals from stars like Beyoncé, Mr. hudson, and even otis redding!release Date: 8 Augustreason to go listen to it: Love them or hate them, this is arguably the most anticipated album of 2011.

Go: When did you first start playing music? humam ammari: When I was about 14 years old.
Go: what made you start?ha: Back when I was in school I heard a friend playing “Layla” by Eric Clapton on the guitar, which I fell in love with and thought to myself, “he has to teach me!” He did and the rest is history.
Go: which era/decade of music had the most influence on you?ha: The 80s, but I love the 70s too.
Go: which artists had the most influence on you?ha: Metallica, when I started picking up the guitar, and later on I was extremely influenced by Dave Matthews Band.
Go: what’s your opinion on the music scene in Jordan?ha: I’m glad that more people are enjoying the music by local artists and actually supporting them. It’s encouraging that new bands are emerging and trying to blend genres and more young people are getting into the music scene. It’s something we definitely need. What people need to understand is that being a musician is like any other job, you don’t have to just do it on the side.

Go: how long have you been a radio dJ for? and how did you get into it? luma al adnani: At the end of this month, I’ll have been a DJ for nine months. I actually became a DJ by accident. I had just finished my masters in international journalism, and was looking for a job. I was freelancing for a newspaper at the time, and months earlier I’d sent an email to SPiN looking for a job in production. Three months later I got an email from the program director saying they were looking for a presenter, which I hadn’t considered doing before, but I thought why not? After two months of interviewing, I got the job!
Go: what is your opinion on the music scene here in Jordan? la: To be honest, there are those who amaze me and whose music I love. I especially appreciate when someone comes up with something new that is his/her own material. Then there are those who should just give up. Singing isn’t for everyone, but if you’re good, I will definitely support you. We’re always supporting local talents at our station and often have them on for interviews, and we’re happy to play their music.
Go: what music do you mostly listen to? la: I am a big fan of indie music, so I’m always playing a weird band no one’s heard of. I also prefer mellow, sad songs; they bring me inner peace, if that makes any sense.
Go: what do you think of this “auto-Tune” phenomenon? la: I think it’s proof that that particular singer
has a horrible voice, but it doesn’t stop the song from being catchy or a hit.
Go: what do you think about the free downloading of music from applications like limewire, emule, and bitTorrent? la: I think without it, I wouldn’t have been as exposed to music as much as I have. We don’t have an iTunes music store in Jordan, so we can’t buy individual songs, and I think buying a whole

Before we go...on
Ali DahmashBLOGGER oF The monTh
Go: how long have you been blogging for?ali dahmash: Since 2006.
Go: what got you into the blogosphere?ad: I first heard about blogging from my friend Fadi who had his first blog a few months before mine. i thought it was an amazing medium to talk freely about things that come to my mind — things that are relevant to me — and write about topics that I think are important. Blogging was how I discovered that I love writing!
Go: how did you come up with “under my olive Tree”?ad: The olive tree is the main income of the people of the Middle Eastern region; it is also the symbol of prosperity, coexistence, and peace. Under the tree is where I come up with my thoughts.
Go: what are your favorite things to blog about?ad: I’m always concerned about how the West perceives the Middle East and Islam. I’m also a peace activist so the Middle East crisis takes a large segment of my writings. I began to write about the Palestinian – Israeli conflict and the sufferings of the Palestinians because of the Israeli occupation.
Then my writings took another shift when I began writing stories from the region and especially Jordan — stories that humanize us. I believe that this is very important to improve our image in the West.
Just before the war on Gaza in 2008, I started concentrating
on charity and volunteer work in Jordan and helping the local community. But after the war, I found out that I needed to show people how they can help the community to empower it. I want to be the light for people who want to make a difference but who are not sure how to do so.
Today, my blog is an initiative and will be a registered NGO very soon. Now I focus on three things: education; health; and funding small businesses and projects that empower Jordan’s less fortunate.
Go: if you were stuck on a desert island and could access only one social media site, which one would it be and why?ad: Twitter! It’s easy, mobile, and short. It is my source of information for what’s happening in Jordan, regionally, and internationally.
age: 38nationality: Jordanian
Blog name: under My Olive TreeBlog url: undermyolivetree.com
Go: how do you think social media in Jordan is faring today?ad: Today, in Jordan, we have 1.4 million people on Facebook and 7,000 on Twitter and the number is increasing rapidly. Social media in Jordan is being utilized in a positive way; where many initiatives are calling for social change and political reform. And the good thing is that the government is listening.
Go: what is your piece of advice for someone who’s looking to enter into the blogosphere?ad: You can write about anything that comes to your mind, whether it is sports, politics, social change, or fashion. The only thing you need to be aware of is the source of information that you are using to write about and its credibility. Use social media wisely!
