I planned to submit Chapter 6 at the end of this week, it seems that I will have to delay again! But should be able to finish it by the end of this month.

Chapter 7 should be done in Feburary, the remaining parts need to be done in March. That means the first version should be ready at the end of March, and revision will start from April.

9CCEE paper has been submitted and conference will be held in June 2007. May considering prepare a journal paper sometime in April.

Job searching should be sheduled starting from April, with the earliest possible work time in Summer 2007.

That's the rough schedule I need to pursue.

Cheers! Keep on pace!
