I don't know if this is worth putting here, but here it is:

My paper on Organic Electronics
I'm not sure of the wisdom in posting this, especially since I haven't been graded on it yet, but oh, what the heck.
This is a report I wrote on Organic Electronics, which are electronic components created from carbon-based compounds, as opposed to Silicon or other inorganic semiconductors.

Sailing on Mystic
I had the good fortune to sail in the Texas NOOD regatta on J/27 #106, owned by Keith Gray. It was a three-day regatta, and we had 8 races. I took my GPS along and will publish the data here to my blog as I am able to do so. I got to sail with some friends, and I learned a some things about 'big' boat racing. More on that later.
Here's the data from the first race on Friday 11/11. (click to get a bigger picture)
Color Legend
Gray: Pre Race
Magenta: pre start
Red: 1st leg
Blue: 2nd leg
Green: 3rd leg
Black: 4th leg
Some analysis I did based on the data is here. It should be taken with a grain of salt, since there is some noise in the data, and there are some uncertainties introduced when I was looking at the data.
