Slow

Sorry it's been slow here. Life here has been pretty busy, and probably will be for the next couple of weeks.

At least I've decided on a few topics for my upcoming research papers.

For my Chinese Politics class I think I'm going to do something relating to the chances of democracy in China, and it's effects on China's foreign policy with East Asia and the U.S. I still have a bit of refining to do on the focus, but that's the start.

For Statistics I'm probably going to analyze data on what contributes to a country's corruption. The group Transparency International has some quantitative data on corruption by country, and I'll probably try to see how it correlates with a country's GDP, rural/urban ratio, political system presence or absence of political and personal freedoms, etc.

I still need an idea for my US Foreign Policy class.
