What a month!

I apologize to my few readers for the lack of action in this blog. I've spent only 5 days in the past month at home and it has been difficult to find time to post. I hope to publish a few interesting things I've saved over the next week or so.

Anyway, I have spent the past 10 days in the US working with my co-authors in Georgetown. It is amazing how working face-to-face really speed things up. As usual, progress was slower than expected, but nevertheless we did good work on all the papers and should be able to submit at least one before the end of the year. DC is really a great city. Very international, full of good restaurants and with a very nice vibe. I highly recommend a visit to anyone.
