Piddling: Looking for an industry job? Unless you're heading to South Korea or you want to postdoc, no dice.

Big week for faculty positions: Over 70 tenure-track faculty positions. I think I'll have a more detailed roundup later this week, but it's pretty huge. As I recall, this is the "academic recruiting" issue; nice to see that there's something out there.

Small college of the week: The University of Toronto - Mississauga (Mississauga, Toronto, Canada - student population: 8762) is looking for a Lecturer in Analytical Chemistry. If you want to watch the Toronto Argonauts practice (this is the site of their practice facility) in your off hours, this position might be for you!
