Pictures are up

I've managed to put up a few selected pictures from the party from our house. As I said last time, it was pretty crazy a party. You will see just why. But the house has recovered pretty well right now. Dwight will be staying with us for a couple of months when Roisin is going to be traveling through Niger for some field campaigns. Malaria and typhoid await her and hopefully some interesting scientific results too.

I spoke to Bashar today. He wasn't doing too well. He is in Lebanon at the moment and well, things are not going too well right now. Israel has declared war on Lebanon and is attacking them as I write this. It's a pity that countries have to resort to war to solve crisis. I understand that war is how the best luxuries which we enjoy have evolved, but I am sure there must be a better way.

I hope things change soon.
