Dear All,
I hope you are enjoying the beginning of the summer. St. Louis summers are beautifully green. They can be toasty and wet too. We are enjoying a bit of both at the moment. The news from Iran has both good and disturbing parts. Among the disturbing parts are further American action to create unrest [...]

Dear All,
Greeting! I hope you are enjoying a pleasant week. I cannot thank you

enjoy them and find good use for them in the classroom.
I spent an intense time in the conference “Terrorism and [...]

Hi everyone!
I hope you are all very well. I have good news — which is becoming a tradition. A brave soul has offered to archive all the windows on Iran on line. This is fantastic. I won’t mention his name yet as he is currently looking into the situation. Only a week ago, a friend [...]

Hi Everyone,
Late again! Walking out of a lecture this afternoon, two wonderful friends commented casually “don’t let being late put pressure on you!” I thought that was great advice, particularly if I want to keep these windows going. So, I am not going to apologize for being late this time. And, I have exciting news: [...]
