Status report, Stardate.... 2010oh five point.... now.

Okay, so, needless to say, I've been pretty busy lately. Let's start at the beginning, shall we?

I'm flying to Halifax next Monday for a CASCA (Canadian Astronomical Society) conference at St. Mary's University. I'll be giving a poster presentation on my research project (which I'll be making available online once it's complete). I fly back to Montreal on the Friday night, right after the conference, so exhausted as I may be, at least I'll not lose out on the weekend. 

After that, I have a trip to VERITAS to test out a new piece of hardware we're building that will be testing the reflectivity of the mirrors of the telescope dish (i.e. how much light they reflect). That trip is a short one, only four days. 

Kegged a batch of beer last night. An apricot ale in preparation for a graduation party I'll be going to at the end of the month. I also bought tubing and fittings for my CO2 tank and regulator. I'm curious to see how it turns out; this is my first keg.

Anyways, back to work, got to get this poster in the bag.
