Hello, everyone!
Hopefully not everyone left in my absence! I sincerely apologize for being away, but I have been extremely busy. I know that a lot of these are going to be somewhat outdated, but I couldn't bring myself to delete the articles, links and news reports I had found, so here is a Sci-Bits running from January to now (or at least, ones I have located within that timeframe). That should put me back on schedule!
