Presently, I am working with SFI (Science Foundation Ireland) sources potential reviewers for various research grants in the Maths/Computational field. Its certainly filling my time and paying my bills and quite interesting. It has given me a little insight into what the Foundation does and how it works. Its a really nice work atmosphere.
I couldn't believe the Irish Times on Monday when I saw this photogragh. Is this an effect of global warming or a once off? None-the-less - a wave you might expect off the coast of Hawaii - but Ireland? At least they are shark infested waters :)
