Links added - Radio Interview and Leo's web page

A link has been added to the radio interview from the weekend of January 19/20. Jimmitti and Mrs. Banas were interviewed by Judge Penny Wolfgang on her radio show, On Target.

Note that I also added a link to Leo's web page from the conference. He has some great pictures up of the conference and of himself and the other Taiwanese students. You will find a few of them below.



On the radio....

On Monday, January 14, 2008 Jimmitti Teysir and I were interviewed by Judge Penny Wolfgang for her weekly radio show, "On Target." The students drew straws, and Jimmitti "won" the right to be on the show.

The half hour show will air this weekend five separate times.

1520 AM: Saturday 6-6:30 a.m. EST (http://www.kb1520.com/)
1400 AM: Saturday 6:30-7:00 a.m. EST
107.7 FM: Sunday 6:30 a.m.-7:00 a.m. EST (http://www.1077thelake.com/)
98.5 FM: Sunday 7:30 a.m.-8:00 a.m. EST (http://www.kiss985.com/)
102.5 FM: Sunday 10:30 p.m.-11:00 p.m. EST (http://www.mystar1025.com/)

Four of the five stations stream live online, so people outside of Buffalo can hear the show if they really want to do so.

Happy New Year, Changhua Senior High School Students!

Just wanted to take a moment to thank all of the Changhua students for their comments on the blog and their emails to me. I thought I would post some pictures of the students from Changhua to start the New Year off.

Thanks to Douglas for the picture of me and him (if I look tired, it's because I am - it was 2 a.m. the day of our departure and I hadn't slept).

Thanks also to Rogan for the additional pictures of the Changhua students (and of him and I at the conference).

Kayla, Cliff, Jimmitti, and I thank you again for your hospitality and friendship.

Keep in touch!
