In class I started by creating a task list for AGN. It included reviewing "Nature's Most Powerful Monsters" which is what I did today. I didn't realize that not having regular practice on these subjects can make you forget so much. Last year I had memorized all the emission line ratios and can no longer tel you any of them. This document "Nature's Most Powerful Monsters" is one of the useful resources we have for AGN. It is great to review or begin your learning for AGN. It also gives a great introduction to Graphical Analysis, which is a main tool used in AGN.

Today I started my review on "Nature's Most Powerful Monsters" and I am starting to realize how easy it was to forget things over the summer. I need to start getting some practice going and look over my milestones from last year. As a thought I am going to post my milestones on the AGN page. Once I get back into the same groove of looking at spectroscopy like I did last year, I'll begin to make a list of vital skills and knowledge needed for this project area. I also had a quick discussion with another student on what spectroscopy is, however DL stopped us short.

Arrange some of the stuff on the AGN page so that it was less crowded. Made a link to go to the page that has all online sources that I found for AGN. Also add a cool new pic to the site. It is a good representation of an AGN, and can give one a visual of what an AGN would look like. Started to look at the spectroscopy graphs I labeled last year and am starting to get the hang of labeling them again.

Talked with Pete about some of the basics of AGN. We had an informative talk about red shift. I explained to him that it was an intergral part of AGN and we use to calculate many other attributes of AGN. I also slightly introduced PF to Graphical Analysis. I gave him a slight tour of the program. Showed him basic tools such as **examine**, **insert** (Used to insert emission peak labels), and how to open spectroscopy in the program.

On Friday me and PF discussed more about AGN and I taught him a few other things. I am currently in the process of creating a list of all the skills and knowledge that are neede to began a study in AGN. Looking through "Nature's Most Powerful Monsters" I am creating a list that goes in order through that document. I will list the knowledge and skills and then make a milestone to outline each one.
