After last night's amazing baseball developments (which were very nearly statistically impossible), it's time for the postseason. The Associated Press has a style guide for those writing about the World Series!

The OED is turning 100, and you can read it online for free this week! Hurry and be educated, enlightened, and illuminated!



Also online for free: the Dead Sea Scrolls, digitized and available. Wow.

Tomorrow: is Friday! And links from others.
