Here is an election map of district 110 in the Michigan State House. Located in the ancestraly democratic Upper Peninsula, Gregory Markkanen flipped this open seat from Dem to GOP in this close race.

@djflaspo @mturesearch @LynnMazzoleni Go my Collins Bird Guide, and Nikons. I haven't seen anything exotic, but even common birds are new!

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni Thanks and godnatt!

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni In my case, it was to get out of my "comfort zone" and explore new language, culture, and people.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni If we make the goopy black bio-oil into nice clear fuel we'll have done something.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni New technologies, long-term relationships, broader perspectives, and new energy will help a lot!

@mturesearch @LynnMazzoleni @djflaspo The 6 hour delay w/ the US, and sometimes things are "lost in translation"!

@mturesearch is this an urban sample?

@mturesearch @LynnMazzoleni @djflaspo Really encourage other MTU faculty to look at a Fulbright experience. A great way to use a sabbatical

@mturesearch @LynnMazzoleni @djflaspo The Fulbright program has dimensions besides great research, the cultural interactions are awesome.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni Thanks to US embassy Sweden @usembassysweden and @FulbrightPrgrm for reception with US Nobel winners

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni No pictures during the ceremony though.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni The coolest was the Nobel prize ceremonies, and a reception w/ the US winners!

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni I'm doing research on renewable fuels from wood and pulp/paper wastes. Sweden is a world leader.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni Biofuels are huge in Sweden, great opportunities for collaboration in chemistry and forestry guys,

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni If any of the bioproducts folks at MTU are listening in, I may need some input!

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni Have a concept paper on biofuel production due on Friday to DOE on use of lignin for fuel + chemicals.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni Also just a little snow at Chalmers University, but not like Houghton.

@mturesearch @djflaspo @LynnMazzoleni It's only 27 degrees here in Southern Sweden, but a beautiful full moon.
