Record number of equations

Chapter 7 "Collection Growth" of "Cloud and Precipitation Microphysics - Principles and Parameterizations" (Jerry M. Straka, 2009, Cambridge University Press) has 278 numbered equations. Other chapters follow:

238 in Chapter 2 "Foundations of microphysical parameterizations"

206 in Chapter 5 "Vapor diffusion growth of liquid-water drops"

These are the highest number of equations I have seen so far listed in a textbook.

Weird clouds on Wired magazine

Some interesting looking clouds are shown on Wired with brief explanations about their formations.

I spotted Mammatus clouds and Kelvin-Helmholz waves after I have started looking up into the sky with an increased curiosity. I posted a few of them on my Picasa...

Sage - open source mathematics software

Sage is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It combines the power of many existing open-source packages into a common Python-based interface.

My words on Stories page:

Sage is one of the well designed approaches to blur the boundaries among being a user, developer and contributor in the open-source ecosystem. Probably I will be hanging around for a long time be it bugging, complaining, documenting, adding content and eventually digging into source codes ;)
