While I've been back in the US, my students have been hobnobbing with senators. Here's a picture of John McCain arriving at the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam and greeting the Director General of the Academy. The stop at DAV was part of the recent Asia tour taken by Senators McCain (R-AZ), Klobuchar (D-MN) and Graham (R-SC).

A Cool Password Program
Since I don't have much teaching news to post these days, I thought I'd let you know about a password vault program I've found. It's called KeePass. It keeps all your passwords in a secure file so you don't have to try to remember all of them - or have just one password you keep using over and over again. It has some nice features. From what I've seen in reviews, it's quite secure.
On the cancer front, Nancy had her first of four doses on chemo. It's been really rough on her but they say she should start getting her strength back in a few days. You probably already know about her Caring Bridge blog, but I'll add the link here anyway.
It looks like I may do a little tutoring this spring after all. We've attended a Vietnamese Alliance Church a couple of times here in Greenville. They have been great and have prayed regularly for Nancy. We've made a friend there who wants to work on his English and I've got to give him a call this week to set something up. He wants to help me with my Vietnamese, but he's from Dalat and uses a different accent than I'm used to. It's been a lot of work to try to understand, but I'm grateful for the chance to practice.
