Stuff

Here's an interesting read.

Found on Medo's site...annoyingly cute. Stress on the annoying.

Books I plan to get/ read/ finish in the next couple weeks: How the Mind Works by Steven Pinker, Computational Physics by Nicholas Giordano, A Feast for Crows (waiting on paperback) by George R R Martin, and re-reading Tao Te Ching (or Lao-Tzu as it's called in old days) by Lao-Tzu.

Good mix of heavy and light stuff, though George R R Martin's fantasy novels are not exactly the lightest reading. There's tons of characters in there and it's full of suspense, sex, intrigue, betrayal, vengeance...just an awesome series so far. Another great bunch of relaxing reads is Jing Yung's kung fu novels. I need to pull those out sometime and re-read them too. Lao-Tzu is also great reading, especially on the john. Read a bit everyday...philosophy for the soul. Don't like it? Flush it with the rest hah.

Spark those neurons!

Empty apartment for the next few days. My roommates are out; it's quiet. It's important to know how to have fun on your own. If you don't understand yourself or enjoy your own company, who will? (I think I've said this before...and also the answer---see last post! =P)

This weekend sucks!

So the Yankees are facing an uphill battle against the Angels. Hope they pull out of this one. The game today was pretty intense. Down 5-0 then went up 6-5 only to be beaten 11-7. Ugh! I don't know, they just lacked the stamina to pull things through today. Then again, I don't fault them. NY has a pretty tense weekend with the bomb alert, and I pray that all will be well. After all, in my heart NYC is still my home. This weekend is Fall Break. Unfortunately for me, the weather is bad so I probably can't go hiking, and then my boss told me Thursday that we have work to do over the weekend. Right now I am busy testing the microwave/rf generators for our quantum dot gate pulsing. We need to make sure that we can maintain the pulse form sent down to the sample with minimal distortion, reflection, attenuation and loss. This is made particularly difficult due to the size of our metal gates (which I made), on the order of 100 nm or less in width and less than 20 nm in thickness. S...
