I'm back with my weekly round up after an unplanned hiatus. Long story short, the past several weeks have been very busy both personally and professionally with unexpected events and changes in plans, but I am simply glad that the end of the semester and final exams are on the horizon. I have stacks of grading still to do, but this is the time of year when I get to fully take account of all the hard work that has gone into student projects, papers, and yes, even those dreaded exams. Enjoy my weekly selection of media links, and I look forward to returning to a more regular schedule of blogging in the weeks and months to come!
