   Nice Brewster Angle you have there. Be a shame if anything happened to that polarized light. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/phyopt/polar.html https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1014552706772623361/video/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/51216

   From chandraxray https://twitter.com/chandraxray on Twitter: Right #now Chandra is studying the star Vega, located just 25 light years from Earth. Vega was the "North Star" around 12,000 BCE and will be so again in about 12,000 years! #Today's Ob: 1h 41m Learn about stars: http://chandra.si.edu/xray_sources/stars.html https://twitter.com/chandraxray/status/1013894115380121600/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/51197

   Treated to an incredible view of the moon and Mars this morning at 6am on my run. Despite Rayleigh scattering making the sky appear blue, even before sunrise, Mars was SOOOOO red in the sky. If it is not too hot where you live, check it out in the western morning sky. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1013883148155981830/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/51194

   L.A.G. (2018) A physics drama about scientists who never get to work on experiments in their home timezone and are constantly exhausted, jet-lagged, and forgetting what day it is. The drama centers on how they always miss their students' talks. Hilarity ensues.

   And just like that I am reminded of how absurd the food portion size is in the U.S.

    Personally, I think we have peak ALL CAPS and that the social web needs to seriously consider bringing blink text back into the mix.

    I am less struck these days by Einstein's fruitless attempts at unified field theory and moreso at the fact that a U.S. newspaper was once unafraid of math. https://twitter.com/APSHistory/status/1011557643209539586

    Had a wonderful evening out with @SMU alum Barbara and her husband, Alphy. We dined in a small village along Lake Geneva and talked networking, the demands of a life in hotel management, and international science collaboration. Here's to many more collaborations! https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1010625430246887424/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/51135

    ... and, met some neat people on the bus today who are part of a language immersion program (to learn English), working in France but visiting friends in Geneva. Had a nice chat about their work and about CERN!

    Quite a week at CERN. Some progress on a hardware/software project; new jet tagging tuning ready to head into production in ATLAS; running a jet tagging performance study on real 2018 data and seeing promising results. Time to head up the lake for a nice dinner!
