Tara and I were at the farm for Easter. It has been a while since Tara and I have both been at the farm and had time to visit with family and friends. We had a great Easter! I am now trying to catch up on email ...

I leave in a couple of days for Hawaii for ISMRM. I still have a few loose ends to sort out before I go, but I am looking forward to the trip.

The recent edition of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine has our article on measuring myelin water in bovine and human spinal cord. Congratulations Evan!

Tara and I <along with her parents> are going to Mauritius in the autumn for our official honeymoon! We have our plane tickets and will be away for 6 weeks. We will also spend some time in Britain and Ireland.

The Calgary Police Service has released an interactive crime map. Users can browse different areas of Calgary and see what types of crime have occurred in different neighborhoods over the past 6 months. I think this type of awareness is a good thing.

Grant and I watched RiP!: A Remix Manifesto tonight at the Plaza. The movie is about copyright and remix culture. You can probably find this movie free online <in fact, the creator invites you to remix RiP>, but it really felt good to pay money for a movie that promotes downloading content for free. Indeed, it felt better than downloading Metallica just to delete them. :) <oh, and an infamous Lars interview appears in the movie.

Doctorow comments on how anti-terrorism initiatives are terrorizing Londoners through fear mongering. From "Keep Calm and Cary On" to "When in trouble or in doubt / Run in circles scream and shout".
