In this blog, I will put links to various blogs, talks, emails, etc. so that all the links are readily available at one fixed location.  This is for the EEMC pi0 cross section, A_L, A_LL results which are hoped to become preliminary in September, 2012 so that they can be shown during my APS DNP talk in October.
