Summary
----------------------------------------------------------------------


another photometric night with poor to abysmal seeing, aside for ~2 hours in the 2nd half. between a hot chamber during the day and then a sharp temperature swing at 02:00 the mirror had a difficult time keeping its figure. outside of that it was smooth sailing for the most part. only technical issue was PCON crashing a few times without warning.

accepted blocks for the following programs:

2012-2-GU-001
2012-2-UW_OTH-001
2012-2-RU-002
2012-2-UW_RSA-001
2012-2-RSA_OTH-003

the following programs were observed, but the observations rejected:

2012-2-RSA-010 (no suitable guide star in field. alignment star way too bright)
2012-2-UNC_RSA_RU-002 (x2; poor conditions and poor mirror figure)
