Unnamed request
This article refers to a service created by Mr. Ricky Youssef. He established the possibility of learning a language through speaking it over the phone with qualified teachers trained to stimulate various convversations that interest the calling students. This possibility has begun in Stuttgart and now in the process of being expanded all over Germany. Learning over the phone gives the learner all the flexibility and encouragement he or she needs to speak English on a day to day basis. Sprachenglish is the name of the institution that allows such a possibility.

alt track
alt track are an experimental, electronic and ambient group from Bradford and Skipton, United Kingdom comprising of two members, Micky Dey and Pete Williams.

Playing together only for one year, they've performed across the UK many times, are currently booking a full-scale UK tour, have released a four track debut EP entitled 'A Nation is on Fire' in February, from which half of all takings were giving to charity, and are now planning their debut album.

History
Michael and Pete came together musically when they were both in two different local bands, 'The Deed Poll' (www.myspace.com/thedeedpoll), and Filament. Feeling unhappy with their creative input and the direction of these groups, they sought to being something fresh and new. Micky began a solo page on the website www.myspace.com, where small, lo-fi demos were uploaded. While playing together at a venue in Skipton, they met for the first time, had a drunken evening of conversation, and decided to form together, to create the two-piece that would later be known as 'alt track'

EP production
The production of their debut EP 'A Nation is on Fire' saw them re-record past demos that had been converted into a live experience in the months before this. Going into the studio with Micky's brother, and recording at home, sessions were intended to be relaxed, but tensions caused difficulties and strain on the recording period, deadlines were missed, but thankfully production didn't suffer. The EP consists of the built-up, repetetive, dirty fatness of 'Pedestrianised', with its haunting piano melody, 'A Nation is on Fire', a political rant performed over a constant bass line, the heavy and crashing 'Lazarus' with its twisting, disjointed rhythms and Rachmaninoff-esque piano solo, and the sheerly minimal and 'nothingness' of 'The End', performed as a solo voice and piano.

Live Performances
After having played more than 40 gigs over a period of less than a year, the band has become instantly recognisable by their live experience, with the set-up of laptops, synthesisers, keyboards, guitars, samples and voices used to create as much havoc and sound on-stage as possible. Performances are most distinctive by the contrasting nature of the sets, much similar to the contrast across their EP.

Influences/Political Views
The lyrical content of the songs range from issues such as injustice, equality, drug culture, the world and the philosophies of religion, spirituality, life and death. The band are extremely vocal about the inequalities taking place in countries such as Tibet, and have been frequently known to hang a Free-Tibet flag from their stands as a silent protest.

Diamond Dan
Diamond Dan is an infamous NC DOT employee known mostly for outbursts of rage, wrecking state equipment and property, hours of childish video game play on an over priced and underperforming laptop, and causing general discomfort among fellow employees.

Story
Dan is also noted for an off an on relationship with a psychotic woman whos identity has never been completely revealed. Days after swearing he would dump her, two DOT employees spotted him at a shopping mall with said girlfriend. Upon further examination, it was evident that Dan was shopping for an engagement ring. After word broke out, Dan Jones officially became known as Diamond Dan.

During the summer of 2005, three presigious DOT employees were assigned to Diamond Dan's location at the Information Technology warehouse. Dan immediately took charge of the situation, taking an unsolicited role as leader and boss. Dan's most noted characteristics were: giving unclear directions, sharing his opinion on politics without being asked, and assigning his work to the equally compensated interns. Jealousy soon became evident when the interns we assigned an office with a television. In a fit of rage, Diamond Dan attempted (in vain) to seal said office door. However, the interns were too preoccupied with their duties in the office to retaliate.

Other Names
While Diamond Dan is officially known as Daniel Jones on his paycheck, he has other nicknames such as Danbearpig and DEEZ (a name he gave himself presumably in an attempt to seem "thug". However, this name was short lived as fellow employees refused to utter such a rediculous name especially one that usually followed "nuts" i.e. DEEZ nuts.)

Notable Phrases
-"awww maaaan" -"aaa- damn ma- c'mo- damn man" -"DAAAAMN" -"ay yoo daaa- maann you know damn ma- c'mon man"
