Jenny and Justin invited me to their wedding in St. Louis. You can read more about that on Justin's website.
here is a picture of me and Tim. The four groomsmen, including myself, had to put on these pinkish ties and vests to please our newly-wed couple. To tell you the truth, I've never thought that I would be caught dead wearing a pink tie, but life (and justin) had other plans.
Further more, I've never thought that I would be caught dead wearing that pink tie in a limousine... but...
and of course, I couldn't fly all the way to St. Louis without going to the top of its famous arch. The windows up there are so tiny, but they're enough to see both the city and the river.
I feel happy for Jenny and Justin.
I also feel happy that I helped Dr. Mowaffak Al Rubaie publish his op-ed in the Washington Post this week. Many American and British major news covered his op-ed, and yesterday the Senate had discussions about Iraq where his op-ed was one of the most important pieces everyone was quoting! Hilary Clinton even read some parts of it!
Here are some links to governmental and media websites that covered the op-ed.

I'm looking forward to the Iraqi reconciliation project that will be announced by Al-Maliki soon. (here is a useful link)(thank you Jerome)
