Story of the Week

To meet Aduei Riak, now 25 and a

student at The London School of
Economics and Political Science,
youd never guess the horrors she
experienced as a young girl in
Sudan. Poised and well-spoken,
Aduei prefers to talk about her
friends and family, her goals, and
her bright vision of the future, rather than the
years she spent in refugee camps and on the run
from the political upheaval across Africa.Ive seen
a lot of things that a person of my age should not
have been exposed to, Aduei told USA Today. The
(memories) tend to be very dark and gray. I dont
like talking about them, because for me talking
about them is living them again.At age 6, Aduei
was separated from her family during a civil war in

Ethiopia, and from then on she was on her own. She soon joined the thousands of
orphans from similarly torn-apart families who walked over a thousand miles to
find refuge. These children, often called The Lost Boys or Lost Children of Sudan,
eventually found the Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya, where Aduei remained from
ages 8-16.In 2000 Aduei arrived in The United States as one of only 89 girls in a
group of more than 4,000 orphans in a Lost Boys and Girls resettlement program.
She joined a foster family in Belmont, Massachusetts, and began attending high
school despite the fact that she spoke barely any English. She devoted herself to
her studies, however, and mastered the language by spending hours watching
television shows like Sesame Street. Her foster family also engaged a number of
tutors to help Aduei catch up. Within just a couple of years Aduei had become a top
student, and in 2003 she was accepted at Brandeis University, one of the most
prestigious schools in The United States. Upon graduation in 2007, Aduei was
presented with an award for integrating social activism and academic study, and
was also named a Justice Louis Brandeis Scholar. Since graduating, Aduei has
campaigned against genocide in Darfur, was a keynote speaker at the International
Womens Leadership Conference, and is starting a foundation to help girls in Sudan
receive an education. Aduei is also being featured in a documentary film that tells
the story of the Lost Girls of Sudan, entitled Like River, A Girl.

Submitted by Ashley Brown
This week I am making spaghetti for my weekly meal prep and although the way I cook it is not as healthy as this
recipe its close enough and I wanted to share a healthier version in case anyone who is reading wants to watch
their calorie intake and/or lose weight.

Author: Pinch of Yum
Serves: 8

INGREDIENTS
1 lbs. lean ground turkey
2 cups minced bell peppers (about 15 mini peppers)

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep the peppers. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the Parmesan cheese
and breadcrumbs and stir until thick and sticky. Add the bell peppers, turkey and salt. Mix with your hands to
really get the mixture incorporated.
Roll the mixture into meatballs (I did smaller sized meatballs and I was able to make about 50) and place on a
greased baking sheet. They WILL stick and brown on the bottom as they bake. Sprinkle the meatballs generously
with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the baking sheet and set aside.
Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Heat the spaghetti sauce in a large saucepan over medium
heat. Add the meatballs and some fresh parsley; stir gently and cover. Let the mixture simmer until the noodles
are done cooking and the sauce is warmed through. Combine the sauce and noodles directly in the pan, or just
scoop the sauce on top. Sprinkle with a little cheese for good luck. ;)

Famous Quotes about the color black

"Black is real sensation, even if it is produced by entire absence of light. The sensation of black
is distinctly different from the lack of all sensations."--Hermann Von Helmhoz
Without black, no color has any depth. But if you mix black with everything, suddenly there's
shadow - no, not just shadow, but fullness. You've got to be willing to mix black into your palette if
you want to create something that's real."--Amy Grant
