Pretty graphs for everyone can be found here, in the land of the last week algorithm runs, when things magically start working, and everything converges. I kid you not.

The time for shortbread cookies was once again here, hosted by the McGill Undergraduate Summer Research Symposium. With a definite impression that noone should be alive that early in the morning, all the undergrads that researched their summer away presented their 4 months of work. Robots that can swim? Check. Math proofs and or graph theory and or lemmas? Check. Llamas? Ehh, maybe next time.
I developed a LaTeX crush, and prettified my presentation slides.

Some weeks later, after procrastination kicked in, and my supervisor kicked me, I wrote my final paper. Courtesy of eps graphics, of meteoric proportions, the paper is 16 megs - or the hard disk capacity of a small subsaharan country.

And so ends the science fair project.
