May 21, 2008, 01:52 PM posted in General DiscussionHi all. Pardon me, but just some good personal news to share. I heard from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing and (pending final approvals from the Chinese Ministry of Education) it looks like I am heading to Peking University's School of Government to teach and do research during the 08-09 school year! We are all very excited at the prospect of living in Beijing for a year! Time to practice our 儿! 儿儿儿!!!

May 22, 2008, 01:13 PMThanks for the kind words! I will have to spend a few minutes this evening working on translating those messages sent in Chinese! (I can immediately read pieces of them, but of course that's useless in understanding the meaning!) tvan, you don't want to know the name of my book..."Bureaucracy and Democracy"! azerdocmom, no I didn't know that. 为什么?
