Sleep in a Sandwich, 1970.

NEED.

Playing with Panasonic’s super-crappy 12.5mm f/12 3D lens for my GX-1.

They used to be $250, but nobody wants ‘em (poor 3D separation, it lets in no light, etc.) so they’re been quietly clearing them out for 50 bucks! Fun toy at that price.

A couple more samples: jump!, chillin’

I’ve been remiss in making updates… The past few months have been incredibly hard, but I’m stronger every day, and planning to post a bit more very soon.

In the meantime, some news: Monday marks 100 days post-stem cell transplant! — A HUGE milestone that comes with some new freedoms. Though I won’t be able to move across the country to San Francisco ‘till later this year, I *am* able to move.

I’m spending this summer recuperating, thinking, and having small adventures in Brooklyn, NY.

New York CIty is where I got my start, and I couldn’t be more excited to get to spend more time in one of my favorite places on Earth.

I NEED YOUR HELP finding a 1 or 2 Bedroom Brooklyn Sublet

• Starting May or June, for 2-4 months
• Room for a couple and a small dog
• Any fun neighborhoods considered
• Budget is flexible as I’ll be using it as a home office as well

GOT ANY LEADS?

I finally got around to installing this Backlit iPhone Apple logo mod last week.

A few notes:

• It’s on when the LCD is on + for 10-15 seconds after. Also when charging.
• The glow is a little uneven.
• Installation was way more finicky than I thought (18 steps!) and everything inside the phone is tiny. You need patience!
• No permanent changes were required, and it’s easy to reverse.
• The replacement back panel is glass, but not as ‘smooth’ as the original.
• I suspect very minor battery drain, but haven’t measured.
• It works! It was < $25!
• But I probably wouldn’t do it again.

This is the cutest thing a website has ever done.

Glad you like it, and thanks for buying from us! ;-)

Famous Physicists as Children

From left to right: 

Stephen Hawking (b. 1942) - Most well known for Hawking radiation and theorems involving gravitational singularities. He suffers from ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease - and is one of the most well known scientists of our time. 

Neil deGrasse Tyson (b. 1958) - Currently the director of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space, Tyson is one of the leading science advocates in the world - and was one of the men who supported the demotion of Pluto.  

Carl Sagan (1934-1996) - One of the most successful science popularizers of all time, Sagan was also the bestselling author of Cosmos, one of the most popular science books of all time. He was the first to propose that Jupiter’s moons Titan and Europa may hold liquid components of water on them. 

Albert Einstein (1879-1955) - The most well known genius in history, Albert Einstein was a boss. During his career, he revolutionized almost every area of Physics, including quantum mechanics and he effectively founded the study of Cosmology. His theory of general relativity has been wildly successful, despite ‘attacks’ by neutrinos. 

Richard Feynman (1918-1988) - His most important contributions came via his path integral formulation of quantum mechanics and development of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). Plus, he was a total badass.

Our 8 Bit Lit lamp just arrived. It is as awesome as I had hoped. This will hang over Zelda’s changing table, and make it not so horrible to clean up poos at 5AM.

OMG.

This is the best thing you’ll watch all day.
