Parallelization in R
08:16 PM on Tuesday 17 September 2013
I have been having pretty large data set for statistical testing recently. Large as in millions of comparisons which is really taking a lot of time.

Loop
08:07 PM on Monday 16 September 2013
Loop is a iPad app that allows one to create simple animated GIFs like the ones we used to do on our textbook pages. Esther created the one below of a bouncing ball. I created the one below of a badminton match. Isn't it cool. The best part is that it is really simple. Kids should have no problems ...

12:30 PM on Sunday 15 September 2013

Fun shots at home
11:15 AM on Sunday 15 September 2013
Had some fun with the kids using the laser pointer and getting them to pose in different weird positions :-)
Water droplets
10:40 AM on Sunday 15 September 2013
I really like macro photography. Zooming in on everyday objects and seeing something different is always very interesting to me. Here is a picture of water droplets condensing on a glass.
