Friends

Andrew Glassner Graphics guru god who gave me my elevator pitch line.
Eric and Sylvia Another pair of fun friends

Glass Apple John's website for his graphic design consultancy
Schlomo (Steven) Gortler A friend from Princeton who is now a professor at Harvard. His website, amusingly enough, has one of my favorite pictures of me. Schlomo took this as we were zooming from LA to San Diego in a rented Porsche.
Dan Boneh (Dabo) One of my friends and office-mates at Princeton. Dan is one of the nicest and smartest guys you are likely to ever meet.
Research & Education
Me @ MSR My old website from my days in MSR.
Graphics papers Tim Rowley's website with lots of links to graphics research papers and links to other index sites.
Google scholar Look up papers, references, etc.
Princeton University My grad school. Princeton is an extrodinary place.
The College of New Jersey The College of NJ, also known as Trenton State College is where I received my B.S. I'm very fond of this school, though I'll admit I'm not as fond of the name change.
Toms River HS South For completeness, here's my high school. The 80s may have been a toxic decade, but TRHS was relatively safe for human consumption.
Businesses I like
Comenity A home audio/video company some of my friends run.
Market Optical Back in 1996 I evolved from round to oblong. Market Optical has kept me in cool frames ever since.
Underwater Sports My diving hobby started here
The Aggressor Fleet A very nice liveaboard diving operator
Amazon Many boxes arrive from them. I suspect people there like me.
Powells City of Books (Portland, OR) The Pacific Northwest's more extrodinary bookstore. Good rarebook and signed book areas.
Pro Sports Club Where I work out. A little too show-ready at times, but it's a great club.
Canon I like printers and cameras. Canon does both exceptionally well.
Subal Makers of my camera's underwater housing.
Kalaloch Lodge The PNW coastline is extrodinarily beautiful. Kalaloch lodge is a great place to go to get away and walk along the ocean.
Princeton Record Exchange When in Princeton, visit the Princeton Record Exchange.
Photo-tronics The place to have your camera fixed in Seattle
Glazer's Camera Seattle's premiere camera store. Hectic at times, but a great place.
Underwater Photo-Tech Never been there in person, but I've had great luck via email and phone. My underwater equipment was purchased and serviced by them.
Arts and cultural organizations
Seattle Opera Rusalka got me hooked and I've been a subscriber ever since. Last summer, Lowry and I spent a week experiencing Seattle's 2005 Ring Cycle.
Seattle Film The folks who organize the Seattle International Film Festival and a bunch of other film events throughout the year.
Miscellany
Sharingwood A couple I admire live in this cohousing community somewhere in the woods near Woodinvile, Snohomish, etc. Definitely "light lodge" Twin Peakes territory.
The Spreading Taint The World of Warcraft guild that some of my friends and I are in. I play alternately an undead priestess and very twinky blood-elf hunter.
The Skeptics Annotated bible This site is an interesting deconstruction and cross reference of the bible. A must read for biblical literalists.
The bible in LEGO The lighter side of biblical scholarship & and criticism.
