I just found out I've been made first author of a research report I've been working on with two other people! Although both of them have 15 to 20 more years of reserach experience, I invested the most hours in this study so they proposed making me first author. And of course I'm not going to disagree Yippieeeeee!

congrats

I'm so jealous! Right now I'm sick and tired of this damn winter. The weather keeps changing too, we went from 10°C to -5°C in a couple of days.

Enjoy the rest of your holiday !

no you don't know about the winter in tropical area. Many friends of mine have gone to snowy places and they say it's still easier to deal with, rather than the 10-degree-winter in the north of Vietnam. the humidity usually goes up to 100% and it's horrible. When you touch a thing, especially new clothes in the drawer or the blanket that nobody used in the last 5 minutes, you'll see, it's cold in a wet way - much colder than when it's cold in a dry way That's something I can't describe using words, you guys should experience it yourselves.

Well, you described it so vividly that I'm almost shivering myself.
I think it's like here. Now it is minus 4C, but so cold while there's a cold wind blowing. It feels like minus 20.
I hope you'll have a nice holiday, even when the temperature is a bit low.

I bet. I haven't experienced winter in a tropical area, but we have a lot of humidity here in the southern U.S. With high humidity, when it's hot it feels worse, and when it's cold it feels worse. Although I think both of us are better off right now than people in the path of the cyclone or the huge winter storm!

An alternate method is to add the spoilers yourself.

Of course! ... Actually I have no idea. It doesn't have the Steve Stamp of Approval as far as I know. I'm just hoping it works with my Dell Laptop.

I don't think the iPad has a USB slot, does it?

That's why it wouldn't work...

Before the latest update, it would have worked on a jailbreaked iPad (on the USB-connector for photo's), but not anymore.
But look at this:

Very cool! Almost makes me want to buy an iPad

I would say no. The picture shows a USB receiver for the device. As FlorenceArt pointed out, the iPad has no USB port.

But the photoconnector has an USB-port and people used it (on a jailbreaked)iPad for a keyboard; before the latest big software-update..

Thanks. I didn't know that.
