A little illustration of how much snow we received a couple of nights ago.
I think it was the shielding by the building that made the gradient. Either that or melting by radiation from the building, but I doubt it.
The ephemeral beauty of snow-coated trees - the wind takes the snow off pretty fast. This is with flash, and lots of bunping up exposure and contrast in iPhoto.
Without the flash and snowflakes.
Icicles! Not the most spectular that I've seen but they were there. I like when they come off the lampposts.
I was walking by Thompson Chapel and realised I didn't really have close-up shots.
Here's another.Slightly more complete album on Facebook: http://williams.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2013265&l=74eac&id=3903144
Some shots from earlier, including Xmas Break: http://williams.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2013101&l=a9d9d&id=3903144
The plaintext of the enciphered stuff I put up last time:
To decipher this sentence shift each letter backward by two steps.
Cryptanalysis is similar in some respects to seeking laws of nature. A law such as the inverse square law of gravity doesn't make itself obvious in the observed phenomena. One has to look for patterns and find the hidden order, but there is an important difference between these two pursuits. In cryptanalysis one knows that the hidden order was constructed by human intelligence whereas the order of nature apparently comes from a source outside of ourselves and is more mysterious.
If you were curious, all punctuation was removed beforehand, so punctuation is mine, and you may find fault with that as you wish.
