The waxing of a physics teacher & filmmaker. I'll try to put in a mix of recent interesting science stuff, quick movie reviews, loose political ramblings and observations from my existence at NYU's grad film school (once as a student, now as a teacher). One of Filmmaker Magazine's 25 New Filmmakers of Independent Film. My last film won the Best Short Film Award at the 2011 TIFF and the Canadian Academy Awards. http://www.doubleswithslightpepper.com

Tragedy
The bad news is that the hard-drive on my laptop completely conked out a couple of days ago, and Apple says it will take about a week to get fixed. Thankfully, everything is generally backed up, and there was nothing of great importance on it. There was a lot of music, but I can always download that stuff again.
I'm just a magnet for computer problems. In the new year, my external harddrive (with all of my film stuff) died, before leaving Chicago last summer, my dell laptop broke down yet again for the one year that I owned that piece of junk for. Dell laptops are crap. I'm just happy that I've got important stuff backed up, and I will continue to be vigilant about that. Computers are great, but they break down. Get the extended warranty.
