Summer Odd and Ends

Summer is a quiet time in academics.  I taught History 475:  World War II for the first summer session and I'm editing my book.  For my students, yes we really do drafts and sometimes our first drafts need a lot of work.  I've also been watching the World Cup.  In the spirit of summer, the World Cup, and history here is a link to A Brief History of the World Cup from Time.  If you want to get completely geeky about the World Cup, you can follow it on fivethirtyeight.com.
