As is my want spent most of Wednesday completing my tutorial (with the snappy title Andragogical Techniques in High Performance Computing Education for the International Supercomputing Conference and managed to submit it the detailed summary an hour before closing date, hooray for "Anywhere on Earth" submission times. By next week I hope to have finished my paper for the International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation, on Issues In Event-Based HPC Cloudbursting (basically, "we aren't we there yet?"). The last few days at university has included all manner of orientation activities which for researchers included ResBaz, which included introducing several people to joy of HPC, and showing off a Raspberry Pi cluster which I built. I missed the middle day of ResBaz as I was out on what has been regular journeys taking Rick to dermatology for removal of skin cancers using what I believe is the CCPDMA method. Rick now has had two surgeries will have a fairly significant scar on his cheek and the back of the ear to the upper neck.
For the rest of my extraordinary amounts of free time I've been finishing off the last bits of RPG Review 37 which is extremely close to being released; I've tidied up my review of Exalted, and will just need to fix the formatting before release. My players are very excited with the planned Journey to the Far West, and I have started on the rather lengthy The Story of the Stone, kindly loaned by Liz B. I guess if one is going to educate one's self in Chinese literature one may as well dive in the deep end. As a tangent my review of Hunter Planet has been published on RPG.net; I rather hope that David Bruggeman incorporates some of my ideas for his planned third edition. I am still working my way through the Cow-Orkers supplement for Papers & Paychecks, which has suffered due to other commitment in the past few weeks. Looking at the upcoming fortnight I believe I'll be able to provide a lot more effort in this regard.
