Welcome to The Digital Diplomat, a weblog focused on global security, governance, and economic issues in the digital era. And me? I hold a BA in Political Science (International Relations) and, as such, actually believe that I know about Things. I guess you can be the judge of that. I’ve been involved in the world of blogging off and on for the past few years, and this just happens to be my latest attempt to find workable solutions for crushing evil tyrants with my dry wit and never-ending stash of Red Bull. During the day I work as a web designer who hopes to one day make it out of a graduate institution of note. Donations to curb the crushing burden of student loans are readily accepted.
In all seriousness, though, my primary research interests include the Shi’ite/Sunni divide, emerging power poles in the global system (think the Shanghai Cooperation Organization), and nuclear proliferation issues. I tend to follow a constructivist mode of thought, meaning I am a liberal realist mugged by some guy down the street (labels are truly trite, yes?)
Email me with any comments, questions, or death threats.

This is intended to be a private message to Justin and I cannot claim any number of years of blogging so I’m not sure if this will get where it’s intended but I wanted to say that you may recall we spoke about animated gifs to demonstrate protein interactions? someone suggested “rasmol” off of a Google search and said that it’s from the government and it’s free. http://www.umass.edu/microbio/rasmol/ is one link I came across and I share this with you in case you come across other’s who are seeking to do similar.
Also have you found or figured out an easy way that I can send e-mail to a blog with a Word and/or PDF and/or EndNote file and have it all post? I’ve been very frustrated by my inability to do this and I’ve tried Yahoo group but that doesn’t capture the attached file in the archives

Why can’t life be easier?
