Why it is such a great job
•Intellectually exciting and challenging– I don’t know of any job that is as much fun
(perhaps writing novels but that’s too competitive)
•Less repetitive than other jobs– When you get tired of a topic, you change
•Freedom and independence– No real boss
– Freedom to choose what you want to work on
•Rich human interactions with smart and international people
•Socially positive
– People think it is a cool job – Clearly useful (for teaching and perhaps research)
I am free!!!!

2009 - 2010 Fadhl Al-Akwaa: My Research Tips
I am not comfortable with MS-word
• http://tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf• Why Latex• Professionally crafted layouts are available, which make a document really
look as if “printed.”• The typesetting of mathematical formulae is supported in a convenient way.• Users only need to learn a few easy-to-understand commands that specify the
logical structure of a document. They almost never need to tinker with the actual layout of the document.
• Even complex structures such as footnotes, references, table of contents, and bibliographies can be generated easily.
• Free add-on packages exist for many typographical tasks not directly supported by basic LATEX. For example, packages are available to
• include PostScript graphics or to typeset bibliographies conforming to exact standards. Many of these add-on packages are described in The LATEX Companion .
• LATEX encourages authors to write well-structured texts, because this is how LATEX works—by specifying structure.
