There were a lot of good-looking people at the party. However some people. That feel T...

PhD'Orient: Intro
http://phdorient.blogspot.com/2007/03/intro.html
Diary of and (hopefully) dialogue about a PhD on the 'Middle East' by someone who has been there but now lives far away and spends her time in libraries reading and writing about it. Also: a great way of procrastinating. Thursday, March 22, 2007. But most of the time, really, it's fun. In case all of this is sounding a bit negative. It's definitely never boring and gives cause for much debate over here. And hopefully, on this blog, too. Hello to your new studious! April 19, 2007 at 11:37 AM. Remarkz - up...

Anecdotes from a Banana Republic. This blog offers satire, news, commentary, media analysis and anecdotes from Lebanon. Sunday, February 10, 2008. I have come to dread Sundays in Beirut.
