Even Quicker Update



Static palatography pics from phonetics today. You paint a mixture of charcoal and olive oil on someone's tongue, they say a word, then you take a picture of the roof of their mouth to see where the charcoal rubbed off, i.e. where their tongue touched the roof of their mouth when they said the word. How awesome is that?

Melinda! That is pretty cool, looks like you are doing some quality research - Keep up the fun and good work!

Sorry to hear about your shin, hopefully that is just a short term ache from a long run.

Hope you have a great running season in beautiful cali!
