Will it come in black with a red tip or white with a red tip or both?

It will be announced in both versions but for those who want the white version only the black will be available, and vice versa. That's why they call it .... y'know.

Leftover Chinese here.
SOOOO, looking forward to Saturday. Can't wait for Santarchy!
We're hosting some friends at our place for a boozy brunch and then getting out on the town with our costumes. Did it last year and it's tons of fun. Hoping the weather holds out for us.
Liamo, they do one in Dublin, call it Santa Con there:

I'm trying to figure if there is a correlation between Chinese food and cheating. Fortune cookies maybe?

just annoyed with the mainland chinese people in one of my classes. they keep changing their answers and yesterday, my friend checked one of their papers and when we double-checked it with the person who was arranging them alphabetically, we found out he had trashed the original one and replaced it with one in which he had a perfect score (his original score was 50%) and even plagiarized my friend's signature! he even had the gall to take my friend aside and told her what he did because he felt that his previous score was "too low". suffice to say, i charged to the prof and we told him. i hope the prof takes proper action because if he doesn't, i'll be tempted to.
disclaimer: i'm also chinese, but i was born and raised in the philippines, the country to which china is currently aspiring to conquer in their new passports.

So my boss got an early Christmas present from his wife, a Nexus 10. Got to play with it a little bit yesterday. Pretty sweet, but I still don't care for that size.
He was asking about a way to access the harddrive at work. It's a standalone drive that's shared with many computers throughout the network. Anyone know an app he can use?
He got LogMeIn working though but dang is that thing slow as molasses.

Depends what you mean by access. If he just wants file access es file explorer can log onto network shares.

Christmas is not an officially recognised holiday, apart from Hong Kong. Everyone will be at work, the schools and colleges are open as usual. There's plenty of decorations, lights and trees. It's rather seen as a prequel to Spring Festival/Lunar New Year, which is on Feb 10th. When almost everyone is on holiday, and goes home, sees family and friends etc.
