that‘s how I greet and address my daughter in Croatian. It’s impossible to translate the expression because it is a vocative case (direct address) in Croatian language and neither my daughter nor daughter, mine in English will do the job. Furthermore, the translation is not even close in the melody of pronunciation.

And recently I was privileged to address my daughter with an additional tremble in my voice: on the 23rd of this month she was awarded 2012 Henry Russell Award from the University of Michigan for her "exceptional scholarship and conspicuous ability as a teacher". Forty six of her scientific papers and some previous awards were mentioned at the award presentation. Am I a proud father? You guess.

What previous awards? She has received an NSF Career Award (2008), the best paper awards from Hypertext (2008), ICWSM (2010 and 2011), and the most influential paper of the decade award from Web Intelligence Center (2011). Please notice: of the decade. Am I a proud father? You guess.
