Science!

My second first-author paper is now available on the internet, and it's open access so anyone can read it.

And the paper Eric and I wrote together (Eric is first author!) is out too, also open access: read it here.

And another paper Eric and I are authors on is out, but it's not open access. But you can read the abstract if you want!

Dr. Chris Saski from Clemson visited last week, and we had a very nice meeting after which we all agreed it is a fine idea for me and Eric to be post-docs with him at Clemson. So that will be happening... if I get an extension of my current position then it will happen around next June, and if I do not then it will happen in January!

poem of the week

The Ant

The ant has made himself illustrious
Through constant industry industrious.
So what?
Would you be calm and placid
If you were full of formic acid?

Ogden Nash

poem of the week

Pictures coming soon, I promise!

Red Faces

Red flags the reason for pretty flags.
And ribbons.
Ribbons of flags
And wearing material
Reason for wearing material.
Give pleasure.
Can you give me the regions.
The regions and the land.
The regions and wheels.
All wheels are perfect.
Enthusiasm. 

- Gertrude Stein
