Official Suggests a U.S.-Iraq Duel - Iraq Official Suggests Bush Duel With Saddam to Resolve Standoff, Sparing People the Ravages of War This is hands-down the funniest thing I have read all week.  I shared it with a friend and she said, "So the Iraqis are the Brits of the Middle East." 4:51:21 PM    comment []

I received a message a couple days ago from Mathilde, at the Alliance Française.  The message said that the DELF had been postponed, and that it would now be split over two days.  The written test will be given on Friday, October 25, and the oral test given the following day, on Saturday. For me, this is an announcement of mixed blessing.  It gives me two more weeks to study and prepare (which I need, desperately), but that which is given here is always taken there... I now have two weeks less to prepare for the DELE, the Spanish language exam.  More incentive to study study study!! 4:47:51 PM    comment []
