University of Puerto Rico shortlist!

My latest job possibility (for Assistant Professor of English) is at the University of Puerto Rico. Click the pic above the learn the history of the oldest university of Puerto Rico, an American territory (but not a state). The university is run in a similar way to a US state university, offering courses to both Puerto Rican and mainland US students, and I am very excited to have made the shortlist there. Beautiful buildings and palm trees can't be bad!

Groundhog Day!

Bad news: Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning: 6 more weeks of winter!

Snow patrol (and I don't mean the music)!

The Alps have invaded Britain.

It was -5 degrees C last night, and the heaviest snowfall the UK has experienced in 18 years. Plus most of the snow fell today during morning and evening rush hours. Fun, if you can get anywhere!
