Weekend update: More research links

(My Internet connection has been terrible for a week or so and seems to be getting worse. Although I sent this post to Blogger more than an hour ago it doesn't seem to have registered. Trying again.)
I posted a couple of these earlier, but just for the record, along with other good things found in last week or so:
