Tel-aviv Marathon 2009

My legs are so sore. Ouch. As you can surmise from the title, I ran in the Tel-aviv marathon this morning. I only did the 10k run, but it sounds better if I omit that tiny little fact and just say ‘Marathon’, doesn’t it?

Ratchet & Clank – Victory!

Finally, after weeks of battling through hordes of horrific robot commandos and robot pirates, and actually robot anything, I have overcome emperror Tachyon, flinging his disgusting little body into a black hole! Now I can finally take this blasted game out of my PS3 and move on to another game.

Candidates are:

• Assassin’s Creed
• Call of Duty 4
• Rainbow six: Vegas
• Ninja Gaiden: Sigma

Here in Boston

For those of you who are blissfuly ignorant, I am spending my summer in Boston, doing an internship at Adobe. Currently I’m residing in Dover, in a beautiful country house belonging to friends/relatives of my parents, but soon I’ll be moving downtown

I purchased a new camera, a Canon XSi (450D) which is awesome and here you can see a sampler of my photos (click image for full photoset):

Tasting menu dinner

Last night we had a tasting menu dinner, 11 courses (4 appetizers, 4 entrees and 3 deserts) chowed down by 9 diners. It was excellent and a fitting culmination of our culinary adventures, just as Uri and Tamar are leaving for greener pastures. The full set here.

Coming soon to Boston, MA

As some of you (i.e some of the world’s population) might know, I’m leaving soon, on July 15th to be exact to Boston. I’ll be there for three months, interning at Adobe. Specifically I’ll be working with Dr. Shai Avidan on some research projects in machine learning and image processing.

Lilach and Shachar will join me for the month of August, and we’ll all attend Marc and Wolly‘s wedding together, huzzah!
