Friday Links (Jonny Quest edition)

January has come and gone. Here we are, at the first Friday in the marvelous month of February. It was a heartbreaking Superbowl, but the possibility of loss it what makes the game exciting. Looking forward to next season!

Anyway, here is a collection of news and other things that I ran across over the course of the week which struck me as worthy of being shared:

This link is for part 1 of 3.
