Hiya, welcome to Sailor Coruscant's Archive. I'm your host, Sailor Coruscant, though in real life I go by the (somewhat more prosaic) name 'Catherine'. I'm a PhD student who occasionally dabbles in fandom. That means that as you wander around my site, you'll no doubt find fanfiction and fanart for my various projects, but there are also a few original stories (one of which was even published for money - well, gift vouchers), my photo albums (currently under construction) and of course my online diary (which I am going to update any day now)! So please look around, have fun, let me know your thoughts on yaoi and hopefully we'll become friends someday.

My day to day life is sometimes interesting, sometimes full of insight, and sometimes just plain weird. So, here for the very first time is the totally insane rantings and ravings of Catherine. I don't normally approve of sharing my thoughts with the internet at large, but what the heck. Let's give it a try, shall we?

Moderately Large Image Ahead...

This is what I spent my weekend working on:

(Based upon figure 2 of Greene (2001).

No, I'm not really here...

But I got to thinking too hard about things, and then I got confused. So I thought I'd take my query to the few readers of my blog.

Is the phrase "stellar astronomy" redundant?

I thought it was, but then I found that it had its own (albeit a stub) wikipedia page. I mean, I get what they're getting at, that astronomy has branched out and everyone needs a category these days, but still... It confuzzled me when I started thinking about the words themselves.

Labels: astronomy, don't ask about the commas, uni, wasting my life, yes I am dumb

Yes, this is very nerdy...

But this is something I just needed to know and had difficulty finding online.
If you want to forward your mail from a unix server, the easiest way to do this is to set up a .forward (dot forward) file in your home directory, containing the address you want to forward to.
If you want to forward your email, *and* keep a copy in your local mail system, your .forward file needs to read:
/username, other@email.address

In positive, and less geeky, news, the conference websites are due to go public, and within three seconds of me telling everyone, L had registered and the database read that she doesn't like cheese, that she was presenting "no olives" and that she was paying by "poster". Oops. Stupid comma-separated lists.

Labels: .forward, conferences, don't ask about the commas, emails, some times I think I'd be good at helpdesk, the Harry Potter / Domus Prime crossover seems more likely every day, web stuff, yes I am dumb
