PLEASE CITE APPROPRIATELY. Yes. That is from the responding email when I requested a paper which cannot be found online. That last sentence is kind of offending. It reminds me of your opinion of insecurity of some people: the degree of security is a nondecreasing function of people’s competence.
So is the case of this paper: [...]

REVIEW

This is the third time I review a paper. I find one problem in academia very distasteful. Many people work on the same problem for many years, with each publication justified by just an epsilon improvement. Of course, they can justify such approach as conducting a focused research with a strong theme. It is just [...]

It’s just so absurd – Romney is marrying my mom! I don’t remember the whole story, which is not important because it wouldn’t make any sense anyway. All I remember are his eyes and eyebrows, particular, and the way he looked at me. I am definitely in love with Romney – only his look though.
