I’ve been remiss in not plugging thinking-east.net, a site that I’m happy to see has finally gotten up and running. The site deals with issues pertaining to Central Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa, and, most importantly, involves young academics from those regions.
Go check the site out for stories on Uzbekistan’s Roma, Mosque-State relations in Tajikistan, Uzbek elections, and Central Asian water issues.

Salaam, Shalom, Pax Mr. Hamm,
Thank you very much for this plug!
Ben tells me you’re in the Philly area. I just graduated from La Salle up on Olney. I’ll be returning from Israel-Palestine on February 4th. What do you say to us getting together for lunch or dinner sometime?
