B rightness?

Today I started by review my data that I had already collected and double checking it. I also tried to see what the graphs meant and make sense of them. I looked on wikipedia for some more information, more specifically what the units meant or relationships between mostly anything in AGN. I went to lunch with Teddy, Chris, and Ryan in which we laughed at a very strange commercial for a 'revolutionary hair trimmer'! Jake came down after lunch and instructed me to go and sort of messed my two main Excel books together to make a very large and haphazard book. I then compared the luminosity with the broad line velocity which is suppose to make a beautiful graph instead of just some points. So Jake believes there is something up with the luminosity that I calculated...I believe looking back at the equation that it might be the equation that was wrong because it was for converting brightness to luminosity and not flux...but then again luminosity might be the same as flux...so I will bring it up with Jake at the meeting today.
