This past week, I went to the Intel International Science & Engineering Fair in Indianapolis, Indiana. On Thursday, we had a reception at the Indianapolis Artsgarden:

Faye Faye '10, Sukrit '10, and Ian '10 address the crowd.

On Wednesday night, I went out to dinner with a dozen of the 20+ MIT 2010s at Intel ISEF.



The table at dinner. In the first picture, Ethan, Desh, Matt, Maggie and Maysun (all '10); in the second picture, Alice, faye Faye and Ploy (again, all '10); and finally, Ian, Manuel, Zihao, and Reynaldo (MIT MMX).


Intel ISEF is a huge fair, with nearly 1500 students from 40+ countries. On Thursday morning, I got to visit many of the finalists and their projects.


Anneke '10 at her project, with her sign, which became a hit of the fair.






Some of the underclassmen projects I visited: Iddoshe and Yi, Peter and Lucas, Jessica '10 and Sohan, Esther, Natasha with three middle school fans, and Iheoma.

My question does not belong here but anyway (sorry
I haven't received the NBM yet. I called the DHL office in Mongolia and asked about letter. They checked the DHL network and said that there is no letter from Cambridge, MA to Mergen Nachin, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia on the DHL network. When was it postmarked and could you tell me the DHL "unique code" of the letter. I also asked from the EMS because the "First Big Mail" was sent via EMS. Was the NBM sent via EMS or via DHL? I am bit worried about it.
I hope you will consider my situation.
Thank you.

No, they're not all Americans. It's the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. There are people from many countries there.
I still often speak to the friends I made from Kyrgyzstan.

I made up this poem in commemoration of the achievement of HSMC ... that is "Howe and SER Moving Company". It goes like the poem 'Charge of the Light Brigade" by Lord Tennyson, but the words are all mine.
Half a smoot, half a smoot,
Half a smoot onward,
All in the pits of pasa dena
Rode the mighty beaver Brigade.
"Hold up, the Mens et Manus pride!
"Charge for the gun!" Howe said:
Into the valley of Tech
Rode the beavers clad in red.
Cannon in front of them
Cannon so dear to the Flem
Cannon but ready to bid them
So long,farewell,and the anthem
Armed with skills second to none;
Onward the beavers marched
Through the watchful prying eyes
Of men who kept the guard
Boldly they drove and well,
Into the pits of dena,
Into the mouth of je-p-ell
Rode the beavers clad in red.
Onward and outward
The cannon began its sojourn
Decorated and adorned
with the famed brass ring on its boom
Through the land of dreams and opprtunity
To its final resting place
That we dearly call MIT
O when can their prank ever be matched?
O what a master plan they made!
All the world watched and wondered.
Honor the men for the prank they made,
Honor the Beaver Brigade,
Long live the tradition of the beavers clad in Red.

The Artsgarden event was a lot of fun. I enjoyed talking to everyone there and the fruit kebab was delicious!
Best Wishes,
