My ISP upped my DL speed at some point. My UL hasn't changed in years.

Two sides of the Irish coin.....Happy St. Patrick's Day

Saturday I took fotos at the Grants Tomb Crit in NYC. Ignoring the fact that it rained for most of the day, it was pretty awesome I'd say. There were very few spectators, so I got to stand where ever I wanted, and the overcast sky was a nice change from previous years with harsh direct sunlight coming from the wrong place.

Buena Vista Social Club - Lost and Found Ready to listen at NPR in the First Listen program.

Thanks. I hoped it would turn out looking good. Of course anyone can use that design. We post here to share ideas. The circular cooling holes over the tubes I have seen on several amps, Stax included.

Had some time this morning, so made breakfast.

Yo La Tengo -- Extra Painful

Handed over a check for $5000 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and for a little over $7500 to the St. Baldrick's Foundation. Both organizations work with children with cancer and do some amazing work to make their lives better. The lab manual I had made for the Neuroanatomy Lab ended up being used as an optional supplement for the course. It will be used as the manual next year with a few more additions that I need to make this summer. It was well received enough that we decided to turn it into a fundraiser for the Photography Club. The students were allowed to donate whatever amount they wanted in exchange for the manual and we ended up getting donations from 322 of the 350 students that got the book which was absolutely unbelievable. That $5000 collected was donated to the LLS. As part of the Pediatric Club, we encouraged people to either shave their head or donated some of their hair to Locks of Love. One 9th grader (who attends an advanced high school attached to my university) surprised us all by raising $4100 alone. She agreed to shave her head if everyone in her class donated anything over $5. The message spread like wildfire and other classes and teachers contributed to the cause as well. We are very lucky to have had her present today. Even though she singlehandedly raised more than half the amount we donated, she was exceptionally humble and a pleasure to talk to. Going to be somewhat easy to fall asleep tonight. Hopefully they can find a way to fuck cancer up the ass. Here are some pictures I took at the event today if you wish to see - http://photographyinmedicine.blogspot.com/2014/11/our-community-efforts_4.html

Got my JH13pro back with the FP treatment. Totally like the sound. The sound is cleaner, more resolving, and just as good in the bass. A worthwhile upgraded IMO. I advice anyone who want to send their phones to upgrade to call first and talk to Maria to schedule the work. Then mail in your earphones 3 days before the scheduled date. All it took me was 5 days and I got my 13pro back better than ever. This way you don't have to be out of your earphones for 2 or 3 weeks.
