Lucky 84
It's the 84th day of the semester (weekends included). It really doesn't seem like all that many. Although for some of you, maybe it feels like 840. 84 is a pretty cool number:
- It's a tetrahedral number.
- It's very military - associated with tanks, machine guns, camo patterns, stun grenades, and a howitzer - WHOA.
- M84 is a galaxy, so kind of a big deal.
- 1984, of course, is an amazing book
- It's the product of my younger sister's month and date of birth
- There's a town in our very own commonwealth called Eighty Four!
Way to go 84!

Chem or Physics Students! Research Awaits!
Dr. Eric Borguet is looking for a few researchers. No experience necessary, just motivation and intellectual curiosity. There is something to the right which should explain what kind of work Dr. Borguet is doing, but it is beyond me, so I leave it to you scientists to help figure it out. It does have lots of colors!
Email your resume/CV to Dr. Eric Borguet (eborguet@temple.edu).
