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

Hog Butcher of the World
I spent last weekend in Chicago, and (as expected) I had a great time. A lot has changed in the year that I have been gone, mostly for the better. However, the racial polarity is still such a problem.
The near-South Side is being rejuvenated and there seems to be a bit more Sox caps around town. Where did that Pink line come from?! Looks like a waste of time.
Had some really good times with the group of wacky people that I'm lucky enough to call friends. What struck me was the pace of the city, which is much much slower than what I've come accustomed too. Walk faster you Midwestern folk!
