YUL

I'm waiting to board my flight to Tucson. It's the winter VERITAS collaboration meeting and I'll be giving a talk on my photometer and my detection of the Crab Optical Pulsar and measurement of the VERITAS pixel bias curves. I have to finish my talk tonight, though, as I haven't the slightest idea when my talk is; the schedule has yet  to be posted. 

I have to go board, surely I will have time to write a bit more later today.

Some spam is weird.

This gem made its way past my spam filter.

Presentation

The presentation went off without a hitch. I was probably a bit more nervous than I needed to be. I'm still not used to giving presentations in my capacity as a graduate student. Lots of interesting questions for the MkII photometer, lots of interesting questions and suggestions.

I've posted my talk on my McGill homepage, available here.

I'm off to check on the brewery. I think I might start posting interesting recipes that I've devised, or perhaps start reviewing other beers that I've found and tried.

A mess

Happy new year. Here's a quick list of what's going on:

- I'm brewing a few lagers right now. A Baltic porter, wormwood-based pilsner, and a bock.

- I've got a big presentation to do on Wednesday. The slides are in their infantcy, still.

-I may be buying a 42" LCD TV tomorrow to start putting together an entertainment system.

-I'm applying to the summer school at the International Space University.

More to come on these soon.
