The Heat: Dubai on the Potomac

If I've been slow posting, it's partly because I'm busy and partly because of the heat wave that's been plaguing the eastern US all week. The only connection this post has with the Middle East is that the weather is positively Middle Eastern: in fact Washington's highs have been tracking pretty close to Dubai's all week, in the low 100s Fahrenheit, with us probably besting them once or twice. I'm doing most of my work in the evenings, taking time away from blogging.
