Answer to Question 1

 The bathing ritual is one of the many socializing activities carried out by Moroccan women. These women socialize together whenever they can, including singing together and playing on a frame drum (called the bendir). (Playing frame drums is the provenance of women in Morocco, throughout much of the Middle East and even in much of central and southern Europe.)

Answer to Question 2

 Morocco is part of the contemporary Arab world, but also shows a French presence since Morocco only became independent form France in 1956. (Maghrebi culture is likewise a notable cultural feature of France.)
 Morocco's proximity to Europe has made the country more accessible to Westerners than other more remote countries of the Arab world (e.g., Syria, or Saudi Arabia). Following independence, the country became a magnet for counterculture musicians and writers (e.g., Ornette Colman, the Rolling Stones, Timothy Leary)
 North African music and musicians are being introduced to an international fan base.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
