Observations on British and American English
by an American linguist in the UK
England and America are two countries separated by a common language.

(h)erbs and (h)aitches
[Update, 14 June 2006: As is often the case, Americans have the older form of the word--the British used to say 'erb too. It just happened to be mentioned in the Guardian's Weekend magazine this week. See Michael Quinion's World Wide Words for more...]
A common response to an American pronunciation of herb is: "Are you a Cockney, then?" Dropping aitches is a definite marker of lower social class--and these days it's fairly rare. In fact, aitches get inserted sometimes in the name of the letter, i.e. haitch. This is heard in the semi-humorous admonision to not 'drop your haitches' (and thus sound 'common'), but is heard unironically in many people's everyday speech, although it is not considered to be 'standard' usage. The story is that it's the Irish pronunciation, and I've read in various places that haitch marks Catholics in Northern Ireland and the Catholic-educated in Australia. I've noticed no such associations here, and neither have friends of mine, though one did suggest that it might be a marker of region rather than religion here. Indeed, my haitch-saying friend is from Liverpool, whose dialect (Scouse) is influenced by Irish immigrants.
As long as I'm talking about herbs...there aren't many that differ in name between the US and UK. Americans call the green part of the coriander plant cilantro, while the British call it coriander. Americans use coriander to refer to the spice made by drying and grinding the plant's fruit. Presumably the difference exists because Americans were introduced to the herb in Mexican cooking, whereas the British know it from South/Southeast Asian cooking. Once, reading a British recipe in Texas, I got confused. I knew that British coriander wasn't meant to refer to the powder in my coriander jar, but could only remember that the American translation also started with C. So I put a whole lot of cumin into my chicken soup. I ate about three bites before I decided that there was nothing to do but toss it out.
Oregano differs in pronunciation, with Americans saying oREGano and the British saying oreGANo. In South Africa (where I first started picking up 'commonwealth English'), they use oreGANum.
As for other herbs and spices, I have been asked "Why do Americans put cinnamon on EVERYTHING?" I can only answer (ignoring the hyperbole): "Because it's tasty."

I used to wonder why the English put corn (maize) in/on EVERYTHING. (including pizza? Uck) So you can respond to that cinnamon question with the corn question. :)
I'm an American who spent a year and a bit in London. I'm enjoying your blog a lot since I discovered it a few days ago.

Thanks so much for the compliments/interest.
You're right, Norma, about the corn--which in the form found on pizza is always called sweetcorn (rather than maize).
While I'd never order it on pizza myself, I've become used to it...
There's a lot of anti-pizza feeling about here--that it's junk food. I'd like to know how a pizza is really any different, nutritionally speaking, from a cheese and pickle sandwich!
Further note on the haitch front--another friend says she associates it with Birmingham--which again makes it regional rather than religious, but there does seem to be a (working) class aspect to it too. Undoubtedly there's something on it in some style guides--but they're at the office and I'm not. Perhaps an update some other time.

I recall the grandfather of a close college friend of mine, who came from a working-class area of New York City, always sounding the 'h' in herb. Is this unusual?
I'm also really enjoying your blog.

I forgot to mention that US and UK pronunciations of basil are different too. US = 'bayzil'. UK='bazil' (with the 'a' pronounced as in bat. I'd always pronounced the name in the British way, but the herb in the American way--but presumably this is because I've never met an American named Basil! I probably first heard the name on Fawlty Towers.

My boyfriend (from northeastern US, predominately NYC/New Jersey and Delaware) has always said "oreGANo" and "bazil" yet says "herb" sans h. Being a Louisianian, I find this absolutely adorable and tease him constantly. Of course, I say /a~ni:z/ for "anise," so I guess he has just as much to tease me with as far as seasoning our food goes. :)

Just an observation from a native speaker of British English:
"As long as I'm talking about herbs" strikes me as unusual. I'd have said something like "While I'm talking about herbs". Is this an American English usage?

I've asked Better Half and The Postman, and both say that it's a perfectly natural thing to say in British English as well. So, not American?
- 16 June, 2006 14:53
Regarding saying the name of the letter as 'haitch' versus 'aitch'. Australians - many of the ones I've met, anyway - are taught to say 'haitch', whilst New Zealanders are taught 'aitch'. It could vary from state to state, though, as each Australian state has a different educational system.
Oregano/Oreganum. In New Zealand you hear both. (pronounced the British way), but on the packets of dried herbs it tends to be 'Oregano'. Oreganum refers mostly to the plant you have in the garden.
- 28 July, 2006 05:07
- John Cowan said...
I think Americans who are conscious of their Italian heritage are likely to say oreGAno.
But this American puts tarragon on everything, not cinnamon. Why? It's tasty!
- 03 January, 2007 19:47
- outerhoard said...
Contrary to what you've read, whether people in Australia say "haitch" is not at all associated with whether they have a Catholic education.
Well, there may be a small correlation in a purely statistical sense, but not a particularly strong one, and there is definitely no widespread perception in Australia that such a correlation exists.
As for pizza toppings, I've never heard of sweetcorn on pizza before! The only thing I can think of that would stand out linguistically to a British or American reading an Australian pizza menu is that what you call "peppers", we call "capsicum".

I'm suspicious. Did you put it to the postman and your OH in context? To me "As long as..." means "Provided that...". Yes, it's a perfectly natural thing to say, for example, "(I do say bayzil) as long as I'm talking about herbs (but for the man's name I say bazzil)" - but I agree with lexi that it sounds odd to use that construction for "While I'm on the subject of herbs".

The way she used "as long as I'm talking about herbs" sounds perfectly natural to me (in both the context you provided and her original context), so maybe it is an AmE thing.
I automatically understand it to mean "provided we're discussing herbs" as you had said, OR "while we're on the topic of herbs" as she had originally used it.

As a resident and 'product' of Belfast there is a limited truth to the Catholic Haitch and Protestant Aitch assertion. I have heard that (we) Catholics say haitch as a remnant of the pronunciations of the Irish (Gaeilge) language but (shamefully) am unable to attest to that fact, being less than fluent with my last lessons attended around 15 years ago at school. Regardless of the overall truth and origins, more frightening is the truth that some people would happily administer a kicking over the pronunciation in this part of the world.
I have actually found myself feeling uncomfortable in my own pronunciation (which incidentally is haitch) on occasion, not in fear of my own physical wellbeing, but rather for fear of making others in the minority, in a given gathering, feel uncomfortable such is the sensitivity around such (minor) issues here - we can all only wish for the prevalence of reason and intelligence - not to make us sound more backwards than anyone else - lets be honest, turn on the news and everywhere you look hatred and persecution over minor differences abounds, pity I personally love to meet those who aren't 'like me' in so far as any HUMAN BEING can be different from their brother or sister.
Oh and the whole 'erbs pronunciation always irritated me - it turns out that it may be the correct pronunciation given the origins of the word - ah well one up for the yanks!
- 06 September, 2008 00:15
I'm an Aussie living (for the past five years) in the US (greater Boston) and who has also spent ten years in the UK. I was taught to say "aitch" but heard that "haitch" was common amongst Catholics because of being taught by the Irish in Catholic schools. (However my BH was educated in a Catholic school and definitely says "aitch".)
But why isn't the letter called "haitch"?
To my ears dropping the aitch on "herbs" here (US) sounds pretentious, as does "fill-ay" for "fillet", where I pronounce the tee.
Great blog! This is the first time I've ever posted a comment.

I think the things that irks me most about American dialect is the fact that there is little pattern to the way they choose to pronounce certain things.
Here are some examples.
Americans say ERBS instead of HERBS. I didn't know if they pronounced HOTEL as OTEL or HOTEL, yet in all cases precede the word with AN rather than A.
A poster commented above that it's "one up" to the Americans as they may pronounce the word 'herb' correctly, given its origin.
May I just point out, at this juncture, that as an educated Brit, I am fully aware of the native pronunciation of French words. If I was inserting 'herb' into a French sentece, I would of course have omitted the haich. As I would with 'hotel'. But these are two words that exist within the ENGLISH dictionary, so their parlance can be uttered in English without the need to 'set' the word into it's origin tongue. Therefore the CORRECT way to say such words, is to pronounce the aitch. Unless you're French and speaking French at the time.
Contrarily, if the Americans are seen as lingually clever by their seeming 'correct native pronunciation' of the above words, the pattern ends right here. Their dialect over Spanish words bears no correctness to their country of origin. Las Vegas should be pronounced LASS VEY-GAS, and not LORSS VEY-GAS. This occurs in their pronunciations of 'Miami' (MY-AMMEE instead of MEE-YAMI), Santa Barbara (BAR-BERUH instead of BAR-BAR-RA) and Los Alamos (LOSS ALAMOES instead of LOSS ALAMOSS). I know most of these are typical of the elongated American A but it's annoying and incorrect all the same. The same goes for their pronunciation of 'pasta', correctly PASS-TA. They of course pronounce this PARSS-TA, a trend (which disturbs me to say) has infiltrated commoners who aspire to higher echelons here in Britian.
The bottom line is, we either use the correct anglified form of a previously non-indegenous language, as in HOTEL with aitch pronounced and HERB with aitch pronounced, or we speak the word as correctly as possible as the country of its origin would, if the word doesn't have a correct anglified form, so we say MEE-YAMI and not MY-AMMEE, PASS-TA and not PARS-TA, etc, etc. That's because we are doing correctly.

Anon: BrE is no more consistent. For instance, why pronounce 'ballet' and 'beret' without the 't' at the end, but 'fil(l)et' and 'claret' with them?
The answer, like the answer to the 'herb' question, has to do with when and how the words came into English. They've all been anglici{s/z)ed to certain degrees, but there is variation in the extent of the anglici{s/z}ation.
I must note, though, that the tone of your note is pretty far on the 'not civil' side of the 'comment acceptibility continuum'. You're not doing your argument many favo(u)rs by presenting it in that tone, especially since it is marred by some misrepresentations of the facts. Let's go back to having a polite discussion of dialectal differences now.

In reply to the most recent "anonymous" thus far:
I live in the US, and have never met anyone who says "lorss" vegas or "parss-ta".
Also, I agree with Lynne's comment. The entry did sound pretty condescending. The random dropping of the aitch doesn't make much sense, but neither do a lot of the things we do with he English language.

BTW, I found it amusing that Anon's "phonetic" spellings of American pronunciations work only with a non-rhotic, British accent. PARSS-TA, for example.

I read not too long ago the results of a survey on national taste preferences.
Americans use more cinnamon in more foods than any other nation.
The British have the record for mint-flavoured things.
When it comes to fruit pies and other fruity sweet foods, the British prefer theirs tarter and more strongly tasting of fruit than any other country.

FWIU, every written initial h was dropped at one point; many, but not all, were restored from the spelling, somewhat inconsistently in different countries.
Haitch, on the other hand, is hypercorrection. The name of the letter never began with h in Latin, where it was aha. When h was lost everywhere in the Romance languages, the name of the letter changed to aka, which became ache [atS@] in Old French and [eitS] in Modern English.

I wonder what the condescending anon above makes of the words "hour" and "honour" in this context? British English omits the 'h' from these words which, acccording to his flawed argument, makes British English just as inconsistent as American English. Also, if pronouncing the 'h' is the CORRECT way, then how would he explain this inconsistency? It would have to have something to do with when the words entered the English language or their language of origin... However he's already dismissed these points as inconsequential. Hmm, guess there is nothing one can do about ignorant people who are convinced they're right! Cheers everyone - enjoy the blog immensely.

Those Spanish words are pronounced differently in different parts of the country. The same name will not be pronounced the same here in California as it is in Texas. They've been interpreted by different American accents. We can't really pronounce "San Jose" properly, and don't feel much need to. (In California, that's "San Hosay," or sometimes "sannosay." I think it's different in Texas.") And "Vallejo" somehow ended up "Va-layo." No offence to the late governor, of course.
Oh...and, in spite of what I was taught in elementary school, I've never known an American writer to prefer "an" in front of "hospital" or "hotel." I consider that a pretty clear mark of an English writer.
And why am I arguing with someone who thinks I'm a hick, anyway? My rural California upbringing is not something I've ever been ashamed of.

It really bothers me when someone [from Britain] bad-mouths the American dialect. It has been around 300 years since we came here - of course the language will change. In some ways, it is separate and distinct from the language of Britain (and Australia, South Africa, etc. etc.).
As for An versus A, it is actually correct to always use "an" before a word starting with an H (+vowel). I only discovered this a few years ago and it is strange to say things that way, but it really is the correct way, no matter whether or not the H is pronounced or if it "sounds right." Personally, I feel that the linguistic community should change this and make "a" acceptable when H is pronounced ("an" is unacceptable and unnecessary before a word starting with a consonant).
As far as pronunciation in general goes, English does have very strict rules regarding it. There are just a lot of them and it would be almost impossible to know when to apply them, as there are so many conditions to most of them. Someone (I don't remember who or where to find it) once wrote a computer program that takes a set of given English words (numbering in the several thousand), runs them through a complicated set of pronunciation rules in a specific order, and gives you the pronunciation in IPA. It was geared toward the American dialect but it actually worked over 80% of the time I believe.
Oh, and saying "as long as" sounds perfectly acceptable in the US for what you meant by it. I don't know anyone who would find that construct nonsensical or even unusual.

Hi ff6m,
Welcome to the discussion--I see you've been making it through the back catalog(ue)!
One thing that I think needs pointing out is that there is no one making up or legislating the rules for English. We don't have an academy that rules on which things we should and shouldn't say. All we have are traditions and fashions, really, and the traditions and fashions in some places and amongst some groups are different from those in others.
And whether or not a person finds a particular expression clear and understandable has as much to do with where they were raised and what they're used to as with the actual logic of the expression. English just isn't very logical. It's usable because we use it a lot and get used to particular expressions meaning particular things. And that, I would say, is part of its charm!

I was taught at school (UK) that where the H was silent..hour,for example..it would alays be preceded by 'an'. In the case of 'hotel' we took it from the french where the h is not pronounced,thus 'an hotel'.Although pronunciation of 'hotel' has changed, the written construct has stayed the same.
Sadly by the time my 20- something children were educated, grammar had all but been banished from the curriculum in comprehensive schools.

- Warsaw Will said...
Just on the 'an hotel' thing. If you ngram it, it's much more of a British usage than an American one, and its use has been dramatically decreasing since about 1940.
In American English, meanwhile, 'an hotel' hardly even registers.
Secondly, both The Oxford Dictionaries better writing section and Fowler (1965) say that if you pronounce the initial 'h', which we nearly all do, it's pretty illogical to precede it with 'an'. I think Oxford says something about trying to have your cake and eat it too. To me it just sounds pretentious.
And as an 'educated Brit', I regret that another 'educated Brit' doesn't really seem to 'get' the spirit of your blog. Mind you, to manage two different spellings of the letter 'h' in the same paragraph, and perhaps more astonishingly, different at both ends, is quite an achievement.
Oh, and lastly, thanks for your tweet a couple of weeks ago.

The BBC loved to use the phrase "an historic moment" in news coverage when I lived in Britain. Needless to say, te "h" of "historic" was pronounced emphatically.
This managed to be pretentious in multiple ways, not only linguistically but also in pontificating on the historical significance of an event that had only just occurred.

Anon (you know which one) made me laugh rather a lot. These pretentious people always manage to have basic errors while lecturing the rest of us on what is "correct". Other than the weirdly various spellings of "aitch", anon couldn't even get "its" right, using an apostrophe for a possessibe. I was actually considering a post pointing out their incorrectnesses, but decided they would just carry on with their nose in the air and insist everyone else was uneducated anyway.

My education was quite consistent - A before a consonant, AN before a vowel. Since H is sometimes a consonant and sometimes silent, it follows that if you pronounce the H, you don't use AN. A hotel, a hospital, an hour, an honour, an aitch. 'Haitch' wasn't actually taught, but the class concensus was that it was wrong - the one guy in the class who said 'haitch' got the mick taken.

The Italians pronounce it as the Americans do, with the accent on the second syllable. It's spelled 'origano' in Italian.
- 25 September, 2011 16:52
In reply James Helgeson's comment just above: Ah, that explains the pronunciation, which for me (American with Italian heritage) has an ih, not an eh, in the second syllable.
More generally, I'm surprised by the comments about being educated in "an" versus "a". Didn't we all (native English speakers) learn that when learning to speak, before are education began? Oh, I remember being told the difference between the two words. But I wouldn't call that being educated. More like, hearing explicitly something I already knew, along with learning the spelling that matches those words I already knew.

Las Vegas should be pronounced LASS VEY-GAS, and not LORSS VEY-GAS. This occurs in their pronunciations of 'Miami' (MY-AMMEE instead of MEE-YAMI), Santa Barbara (BAR-BERUH instead of BAR-BAR-RA) and Los Alamos (LOSS ALAMOES instead of LOSS ALAMOSS). The same goes for their pronunciation of 'pasta', correctly PASS-TA. They of course pronounce this PARSS-TA,
what the heck is this anonymous guy talking about? I am an American and I have NEVER said LORSS VEY-GAS it is Loss VayGus, Nor have I ever referred to Pasta as Parss-ta, it is pahstah. As for Miami I say it the way he does. not sure about Los Alamos, neither sound right to me, I would say the alamo:)

Mr/s "parss-ta" Anonymous is letting his/her (let's assume "his") non-rhoticity show.
While not defending the rant element in his post (I don't think we're here to tell others how they "should" pronounce their own language/dialect), I can at least explain his attempted phonetic spelling as a reflection of the fact that Anon. speaks a variety of English (known as non-rhotic) where the letter gets pronounced only before a vowel: this has the effect of making, say, "parse" and "pass" rhyme (both pronounced "pahss" in the case of so-called RP British English).
So, in writing "parss-ta" he is, in fact, agreeing with you that you say the word as "pahstah". It's a trap speakers of non-rhotic British English often fall into: using "ar" to represent "ah" -- owing to the fact, to give another example, that they pronounce "far" as "fah" in "Is it far?" (although forgetting that they put the r back, because of the following vowel, in "Is it far away?").
All of that said, it is true (though I'm not criticizing the fact!) that Americans do pronounce the originally Italian word with a "long" a (as in "ah, yes" while Britons say it with a "short" one: "passta" (first "a" as in "cat").
I think that has to do with the American tendency to use "ah" for "a" in all words seen to be foreign. Compare American English "Vietnahm" with British English "Vietnamm". Or, to take another food item (taco): AE tah-ko, BE tack-o.
I know that the "a" in Italian "pasta" and in Spanish "taco" is in fact neither the American "ah" nor the British "a(t)", but to us Britons they do SOUND -- probably because they are short sounds -- far more like "a(t)" than "ah" (which tends to be quite a long sound in British English).
- 18 October, 2012 18:56
Thanks Kevin, I did not think of the non rhotic aspect. Although it stillseems strange that when trying to prononce in letters anon would type th r if it is not part of the sound.
On the subject of Italian Pasta pronunciation, I live in a prodominatly Italian town, and know several who are from the old contry and they definatly say it pahstah.
As for Taco, I would not know about the spanrards, but would the Mexicans say tahko also.
Fun little fact My Italian cousin is marred to a Mexican.
Again, Thanks for your insight Kevin.

this has the effect of making, say, "parse" and "pass" rhyme (both pronounced "pahss" in the case of so-called RP British English).
The only RP pronunciation of parse I've ever heard is PAHZ. In John Well's Longman Pronunciation Dictionary PAHZ is given as the main pronunciation and PAHS as an secondary alternative.
If you asked me to PAHS a sentence, I couldn't begin to guess what you meant.
There's a pair with similar spelling that do rhyme in a particularly old-fashioned style of RP. My mother completely lost her Welsh accent when she invested in elocution lessons.
(They paid off. Without any qualifications she stayed in well-paid work in the 1930's — work where a regional accent would have ruled her out.)
With a perfectly straight face, she would revere to someone as a silly ass meaning a donkey but sounding like something else.

This is fun. Some are quite dull such as:
alms ~arms
spa ~ spar
Ta! ~ tar
Bah! ~ bar
But others form agreeably unlikely pairs:
palmer ~ Parma
calmer ~ karma
balmy ~ barmy — one that really can cause confusion
ma's ~ Mars
Mali ~ Marley
Mahdi ~ mardy
There's also the South African laager mentality. OK, I never seriously believed it was the result of drinking too much German-style beer. But I did — wrongly — assume that the circle of wagons was the same sort of safe container as the lager used for secure storage in brewing.

Just a parsing fancy...
Oo-er, David (the r is silent BTW) -- it looks like I've been pronouncing "parse" incorrectly all my life! ...or at least during the 50+ years since I last had to parse sentences at school.
British dictionaries do give the "pahz" pronunciation that you (and very other British speaker?) use, American ones give "parss".
It's odd that when I was at school (in England) "parse" rhymed with "sparse", or is that just me losing it?

David, re your
palmer ~ Parma
A parallel to this is the way so many (non-rhotic) Britons are convinced they ate "Palma ham" while on holiday in Mallorca.
- 22 October, 2012 22:04
It is interesting about haitches - In past generations, in the islands outside Stockholm, it was part of the local accent to insert "h" in some words starting with wovels, (not with "h") - and strip other words of their leading "h". It somehow probably worked out to the same number of "h", just in different words.
Some south Indian accents probably have a similar issue, would use the haitch pronounciation frequently. They have a special way of pronouncing "A" - like "Yaie".
Russian speakers seem to replace leading "H" with "G", in most foreign words.
I bet there are a few similar local habits in many other countries as well.
Thanks for teaching me about Cilantro.
And I am sure that the Palma Ham was not from Parma, if at all they can make it locally.

My mother, British and in her 80s, often says "yarbs" for "herbs". I'm not sure if she thinks this is correct, or if she thinks it's a Sussex word (it might well be). She also frequently says "yowes" for "ewes" (female sheep), which I pronounce as "yous".

I have lived almost my entire life in the western US, and the last few years spread over the western 2/3 and southeast quarter of the country, and the only place I have ever encountered any of the Americanisms you denounced so rudely was in Indiana (where, in particular, r's get inserted in a surprising number of words: people there warsh their supper dishes).
(Aside: has there been a blog entry on the names of meals? Lunch, dinner, supper, et cetera?)
Perhaps these oddities are more common in the northeast of the country; I've spent very little time there.
Aside from the near-universal NON-insertion of r's in Spanish-origin names, you might also want to consider that Americans get their Spanish pronunciations from Mexican-Spanish, Cuban-Spanish, and Puerto-Rican-Spanish rather than Spanish-Spanish. Further, when a word is lifted from one language and transplanted in another, it often gets modified according to the norms and standards of its new home. "Pasta" in Italy is an Italian word, but in the US it's an English word of Italian origin.

"Morris was a 5th rounder. Are we really playing the blame game here for us not drafting him? Every team in the draft passed on him multiple times. Props to the Redskins for getting him. Shanahan always seems to find good RB's......" ....for his zone scheme.
I still think we made the right decision. Claiborne, to me, has potentially many of the same issues Talib does. We got the guy we wanted and we are set up to get a couple of CBs in a draft that is deep with them.
FRG is the most logical poster on this board. You guys just don\'t like where the logical conclusions take you.
Obviously yes. Claiborne has been outstanding here in Dallas and Barron looks like he's a guy who, like people thought, is a good run supporter with issues in coverage, Winning the run game has helped us beat teams like KC and MIN so I guess if you want to beat bad teams we made the right move.
Quote from: benir0 on November 02, 2012, 01:31:06 PMI still think we made the right decision. Claiborne, to me, has potentially many of the same issues Talib does. We got the guy we wanted and we are set up to get a couple of CBs in a draft that is deep with them.You mean Claiborne consistently demonstrates the ability to cover opposing receivers at a really high level, has no history of violence, and no history of drugs? Yeah, sounds just like Talib.
That is a terrible arguement that Martin should be way better because he was a first round pick. With that arguement, how do we explain Arian Foster? He shouldn't even be close to the lead in rushing compared to running backs taken in the first round.
Martin would not have been there at our 2nd rd pick. David most likely wouldn't be there for our 3rd rd pick. The 4th rounder we got directly impacted us getting 2 other players. And say what you will about passing on Claiborne, we passed on every CB in the draft. Talib, Wright, Biggers, Gaitor, Lewis/Johnson probably (incorrectly) gave them enough confidence to not take a CB. Now that Talib has been suspended/traded, Wright is facing suspension and is always injured, Gaitor injured, Lewis sucking ballsacks - you really wish there was more CB depth. But hindsight is 20/20.

The RZIM Academy is now open! The first sections of the Core Module started in early this month and the next classes will begin on June 23rd. http://rzimacademy.org
The aim of this online curriculum is to help equip believers to better respond to individuals around them who are asking honest questions and holding sincere objections to the Christian faith. Beginning by exploring the four questions of a coherent worldview – origin, meaning, morality and destiny – RZIM Academy will offer highly interactive and practical courses that feature lectures from Ravi Zacharias, Michael Ramsden, Os Guinness, John Lennox, Amy Orr-Ewing, and many more.
Designed with consideration for working individuals with family commitments, the twelve-week introductory course is expected to occupy about three hours per week, including practical assignments that challenge participants to engage their neighbors, friends, and coworkers in fruitful dialogue. It also offers a dynamic online community for discussing challenging questions, sharing frustrations and finding encouragement from fellow students and RZIM staff.
Beyond the introductory course, RZIM Academy will soon offer elective modules covering more specific topics in greater depth. Subjects such as the problem of evil, science and religion, other religions, and basic doctrine will be offered in shorter elective courses available in fall of 2014.
The over-arching aim of this training program is that more people would better understand and know the person of Jesus Christ. That is the aim of all of RZIM's apologetics and will be a focus of every RZIM Academy course. Also, as Ravi Zacharias frequently states, our training will emphasize that when offering an answer, it is not the question we are addressing, but the questioner. This training program is designed to help students understand not just how to address ideas, but how to engage people, understand their beliefs, and facilitate fruitful dialogue that points to the person of Christ.

There are lots of recipes for holiday joy. It's all about combining the right ingredients for your family to make the coming weeks meaningful and fun. Each year, it seems everyone juggles more responsibilities. Many people have less time and less money to create that "perfect" holiday. Yet the music, the decorations, the food, the gift-giving and whatever spiritually you want to include add up to the most celebratory time of the year. We have rounded up five ideas that could become part of your own seasonal recipe for success.
Create a long-lasting centerpiece
The dining table is a focus of the holidays, whether it's the setting for festive meals or the command center for writing Christmas cards and wrapping presents.
"Your table should celebrate the season," says Sidra Forman, a chef and flower designer in the District's Shaw neighborhood. "Flowers and natural ingredients enhance camaraderie and conversation."
Forman creates tablescapes spiced with beautiful things that speak of winter: moss, chestnuts, acorns, persimmons and kumquats. Her advice is to start looking outdoors for midwinter greenery such as camellia and leatherleaf viburnum. Search for unusual bowls or cups to display flowers. Use layers of moss or a large tray as a base for your holiday tableaux, Forman says. Add candlelight for a nice glow. If you are having a seated dinner, manage the height of your arrangement so it won't interfere with conversation. Buffets can display something taller.
Diana Wescott, the Whole Foods regional floral buyer, stocks store shelves with plants such as lemon cypress ($12.99), rosemary trees ($12.99) and white snowball hydrangea ($24.99) to use as elegant centerpieces.
The classic choice is the stately amaryllis. She says red, white or striped amaryllis ($8.99) with buds about to open are just being delivered. "You can't go wrong with an amaryllis plant," Wescott says. "Put several in a big compote or soup tureen and cover the top with moss or pine needles. Add some birch or berries and you're good for a few weeks."

We are almost a month into 2013, and whether you've resolved to get to the gym, try belly-dancing or to sit down to dinner as a family more, I have a bonus resolution for you. It's an easy one: Eat a complete breakfast each morning.
If you are one of the millions of Americans who skip breakfast, you could be sabotaging your health goals. Breakfast kick-starts your metabolism and gives your body energy to think more clearly while preventing overeating later in the day. Plus, it provides an excellent opportunity to consume foods high in vitamins, minerals, disease-fighting antioxidants and heart-healthy fiber.
According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, breakfast helps with brain function, attention span, concentration and memory. It can also reduce irritability and tiredness. So, forget the caffeine and opt for a complete meal packed with the nutrients your body needs.
Start the day right
So what makes a nutritious breakfast that will fill you up and give you the energy to get through your morning?
Your breakfast should contain:
— Lean protein to help you stay full longer and prevent overeating later in the day. Lean protein options include low-fat or fat-free milk, cottage cheese, yogurt, turkey sausage, egg whites, nut butters or a handful of raw nuts.
— Fiber-filled whole-grain carbohydrates for lasting energy.
— Antioxidant-packed produce to increase your daily fruit and veggie intake. For produce, opt for seasonal varieties. This winter you can count on fresh fruits such as pears, kiwis or citrus. Year-round you can enjoy apples, bananas, papayas and rutabagas. Or, if you don't mind veggies in the morning, go for these year-round options: mushrooms, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, avocados or potatoes.
Putting it all together
Combining lean protein, whole grains and fruits or veggies makes a complete breakfast. Here are some powerful breakfast combos to try:

In 1968 Savall married the soprano Montserrat Figueras, who shared his interest in early music. With Figueras and other musicians interested in early Spanish music, he founded in 1974 the ensemble Hespèrion XX. The ensemble took its name from an ancient name for the western European region from Italy to Iberia; Hespèrion was also a name for Venus as the Evening Star (in which aspect it appears only in the western skies).
Savall and Hespèrion XX quickly became well known in early music circles. They created a unique sound through the use of viols and other Medieval instruments such as the psaltery, wooden flutes, Moroccan drums, and the Afghan rebec (a double reed ancestor of the oboe). All these instrument are known to have been used by Medieval musicians, particularly in the Mediterranean region.
Savall became internationally known through his playing on the soundtrack of Alain Corneau's film Tous les Matins du Monde (All the Mornings of the World), concerning the French viol players of the Baroque era. Savall has extended his area of musical interest into the Baroque, leading performances of Orfeo by Monteverdi and Il burbero de Buion Cuore by Martin y Soler, and in the late 1990s conducted Beethoven's "Eroica" Symphony with Les Concerts des Nations (a group he founded in 1989 for Baroque music), winning praise for his well-researched and groundbreaking interpretation. He also founded Le Capella Reial de Catalunya in 1987, an ensemble of instrumentalists and vocal soloists.
Savall has recorded around 100 releases. To 1996, most of Savall's recordings appeared on the Astrée Auvidis label, but this legacy became part of Naïve after Astrée was sold to them in 2001. In 1996, Savall introduced his own AliaVox label with a disc of Juan Cabanilles that has served as the platform for his recordings ever since. Savall has also taken advantage of his celebrity through traveling as a touring artist throughout the world with all three of his actively performing groups. Read less

Saturday Football Preview
SAGU versus Bacone, 2:00pm
Listen to the Audio Feed
MUSKOGEE, Oklahoma -- The college football series between Southwestern Assemblies of God University and Bacone College has been as entertaining as the State Fair's Midway. Minus the corny dogs.
Last year's 44-38 overtime thriller had plenty to cheer about for fans. Two years ago the teams combined for 83 points. Both seasons, however, saw the Warriors tame the Lions, who have made five turnovers in each of the two losses to BC.
The previous two years, however, in 2008 and 2009, SAGU earned 33-21 and 28-27 victories.
Saturday's 2:00pm (CST) meeting at the Indian Bowl, the 'midway' point in the 2012 campaign, will likely be decided by the defenses. The series has seen its share of fireworks and wild rides the past four seasons.
The schools are separated by 263 miles, but the competition has been as close as shadows to a body.
Bacone is 2-2 overall and boasts the nation's #13 ranked defense. The Tribe is allowing 278.5 yards per game and has yielded only five touchdowns in four games.
Southwestern, who carry a misleading 1-3 mark into the game, are allowing 344.3 yards and have permitted 10 TD's. The Jungle Kings have lost three home games by a touchdown or less, all in the closing minutes.
If this game comes down to turnovers, it favors the Lions. SAGU has made eight in four games, while forcing 10. Bacone has been more turnover prone, committing 10 while coaxing eight from the opposition.
That translates to the Lions being +2 while the Warriors are -2.
Fans can listen to the audio feed from the game at http://www.livestream.com/baconewarriors
Game Preview
(Team Stats and Averages posted below)
Bacone (BAY-kone) College utilizes a prototypical pro-offense, with a tailback, fullback and tight end in a myriad of situations. (See photo above, supplied by the BC Sports Information office)
QB Kyle Kuban, a junior, is the key to the attack. He passed for 312 yards in a 77-point explosion against Haskell University on September 22 and has run for 88 in their game at Arkansas Tech.
The Warriors have a balanced attack, averaging about 150 yards on the ground and through the air. Tyler Thomas and Aron McCoy, a pair of elusive scatbacks, have rushed for 206 and 205 yards respectively.
Kuban's top three aerial targets are WR Sheriff Thomas, the RB Thomas and TE Rashad Rich, who have snared 11, 10 and nine catches. The latter averages about 16 yards per reception and has two of the team's four passing TD's.
Southwestern is led by junior QB Reid Golson (Grandview, Tx / Grandview HS), whose play so far has blazed like a wheat field fire in strong winds.
The dual threat Golson leads the NAIA's #23 ranked passing game, connecting on 52% of his throws for 243 yards per game. He has rushed for a team-best 185 yards.
Injuries to the offensive line and the backfield have hamstrung the ground game. The Lions, who averaged 155 yards per game in 2011, are gaining just 101.5 and 2.9 per tote through four games. Look for it to improve as health improves.
The return of halfback Landry Martinez (Godley, Tx / Godley HS) was pushed back two more weeks, meaning that Cade Leuschner (Waco, Tx / Robinson HS) will get most of the carries. He has gained 120 yards and has three of the team's four rushing scores.
A year ago the redshirt freshman rushed for 90+ yards and three TD's against Bacone.
Sean Haynes (Katy, Tx / Univ of Houston, Taylor HS) is nicked up and remains day to day.
Jeremy McDonald (San Antonio, Tx / Cornerstone Christian) has 21 receptions, good for 21 yards per, while Trevor McKinley (Arlington, Tx / Seguin HS) has latched onto 16 more.
Nic Morphew (Grandview, Tx / Grandview HS) and Austin Martinez (Grandview, Tx / Grandview HS) have seven and six catches, both picking up 19 yards per.
Bacone runs a multiple set alignment, adapting with the athletes on the field.
The top two linemen are senior Dustin Sherer, who has 22 tackles, including two sacks, and former Baylor Bear Deantre Harlan, with 2.5 sacks.
Behind them is a solid linebacking unit. Daniel Shield is tops with 35 tackles, 24 of them of the solo variety. Jercorey Quarterman is second to Shield with 30 stops, also with two dozen unassisted tackles.
The Red & Black Attack can boast of Montoya Waiters' performance in the secondary. He has two picks, returning one for a score.
The Lions' down linemen are paced by junior D.J. Johnson (Springfield, Mo / Parkview HS), who has 19 tackles, with 2.5 coming in the enemy's backfield.
Harry Ford (Thibodaux, La / Thibodaux HS) is second with nine tackles, and leads with a pair of QB sacks.
The linebacking corps leads the 3-3-5 scheme.
Frosh LB Dalton Snyder (Ennis, Tx / Ennis HS) has come on the scene since moving to the outside. He has 29 stops, twenty coming via the solo variety.
Sophomore Rockie Davis (Santa Fe, Tx / Santa Fe HS) has applied the brakes 23 times, none more emphatic than the fourth down abrupt halt he had against Austin College.
Freshman Jeremiah Maat (Slidell, La / Slidell HS), junior Kendal Evers (Danbury, Tx / Danbury HS) and freshman Billy Manning (Mansfield, Tx / Legacy HS) have 20, 16 and nine tackles.
The Southwestern secondary is anchored by junior Brad Heathcock (Frisco, Tx / Wakeland HS), the sure-tackling vice-grip. He leads the Purple Pride with 30 tackles as well as a wheelbarrow full of grit.
Freshman Mo Mansarary (Dallas, Tx / Conrad HS), a safety with great range, is developing as a quick-strike hybrid 'Backer, making 16 tackles.
The corners have been stellar!
As sure as rain has got water in it has been the truth of senior Nick Ekanem (Richmond, Tx / Arkansas State, B.F. Terry HS) and freshman CB Shakeem Taylor (Mesquite, Tx / Poteet HS).
Ekanem (like economy without the y) has four interceptions and 14 tackles, while Taylor has four picks and nine stops in three games.
The former broke the SAGU school mark for career interceptions in the Texas Lutheran game, while the latter has a 100-yard interception return for a TD against Howard Payne.
Special Teams
Bacone's Jamie Moore has been a pleasant surprise this fall, connecting on 5-of-7 field goal attempts, the longest from 48 yards.
The aforementioned Thomas has 357 yards on kickoff returns, one for a TD. He leads the NAIA in kickoff returns, averaging 44.6 yards per runback.
Equally impressive is SAGU kicker James Gish (Waxahachie, Tx / Waxahachie HS). The 5'9 junior has yet to miss on a field goal attempt, knocking down all seven tries and all 10 point after kicks.
He was honored this week as one of America's best kickers for the month of September.
Stephen Stewart (Magnolia, Tx / Magnolia West HS), a sophomore punter, is due after a few sub-par outings.
McDonald and McKinley are one of the best duos in the NAIA, averaging 29.1 and 19.2 per kickoff return. McDonald is #14 nationally.
Get your popcorn ready!
A report on the game will be posted on-line Saturday night.

Heard #Mets sitting on number of potential trades for Dickey. If a team caves and adds piece, deal could get done quick. Hasn't happened yet
David Lennon @DPLennon
#Mets also working on a trade for OF that could be pulled off w/o Dickey being involved, so could be some action later today.
Possible action later today would be great
It's still a game and you'd rather win it than lose it.

Hearing greinke deal possible in next couple days.
Ninety percent Ill spend on good times, women, and Irish whiskey. The other ten percent Ill probably waste.
- Tug McGraw, on his plans for his $75,000 salary
I wouldn't consider dealing Dickey for Corey Hart, if the Mets want him bad enough he's a free agent at the end of next season.
He should be their top priority in FA anyway after 2013.
Remember when thefts could of had Hart for Maine? Good times.

Narragansett Bay dominates the geography of the tiny state of Rhode Island, extending 25 miles northwards and inland from the Atlantic Ocean right into the heart of its major cities. It is fed by the watersheds of 3 major rivers: the Blackstone, the Taunton and the Pawtuxet. Narragansett Bay defines the region's culture, its history, sense of place and quality of life. The cities of Providence, Newport, Fall River, Warwick and Newport all owe their start to the bay and the opportunities it provided for water power, commercial growth and transportation.
Once badly polluted, the Narragansett Bay has made a tremendous comeback in the last 3 decades as communities all around the bay have revitalized their connection to the bay and taken steps to curb human impact. Aerial Vr plans a series of panoramas intended to capture the area's unique natural beauty, both from its surface and from the air as well as the vitality and uniqueness of its communities.
