link to handouts, website suggestions, or attachments sent to me from other people  

Note: I am in the process of checking links. It has been at least 3 years since many of these have been checked. I am actually surprised by how many sites have gone away, and am also happy to see how many are still triving. If you know of links that I should have here, that are not commercial links, please let me know.
