hmm....looks like this village need to be AMHP-lified for folks to enjoy plethora of cool activities in DC!
SPeaking of AMHP, anyone is welcomed to register to the cool, hip networking event in DC on Feb. 24th as posted in this village dated Jan. 26, 2007. Don't have to be involved in a health profession as the core mission of AMHP is public health as after all any issues ranging from hiking retreats to fun'n'games is definitely a public health issue :)

Gol-Ghotai and Zahed - brother and sister - rescue a stray dog on the streets of Kabul. That evening they visit the jail where their mother is a prisoner. Since her children have nowhere to live, they are permitted to stay with her at night, but the following morning they are thrown out. Desperate to return to the jail, they embark on a series of failed robberies. A fugitive tells them they can learn to steal by watching Hollywood movies. Alternatively, European cinema can teach them how to be caught. 2004 / 92 min / Persian with English subtitles. Part of the Freer's Iranian Film Festival 2007.
wait- so u guys only get together in the summers now? that's sad. it's such a different culture out west. if anyone wishes to venture over, i personally recommend it.
i'm in what feels like a completely new universe. my career was kind of flip floppy for a while (but when isn't it?). i accepted an opprotunity to work for stanford back in november and i luv my job!
i still consider md home and am always excited to hear from old crew. i do miss not being able to drive to other states as easily, so it's odd to go on vaca, drive 3-4 hours, feel like yer in another place completely, but still sit right here in ca!
i do plan to come home in a couple of weeks to visit my folks. does anyone know if guru is out at the hindi cinemas over there? i'm thinkin to go with a group thurs. night. most likely laurel. if anyone wants to come with, lemme know.
AH.
On another note: I did not know about the protest march in DC last weekend. That would have been a change for most of us, and we would have had our pictures taken - secretly - free of charge, courtesy intelligence agencies. Oops. I was not supposed to say that.
NJ, UF: I will send my twin brother next time.
like i said earlier, depending on how much interest we get in this je maybe we can do another event (bbw whatever) in the near future :)
