First, for those of you interested in the Sappho fragment, I came across this lecture by Dr. Edwin Floyd at the University of Pittsburgh on September 26th. I guess my Sappho poem coverage has been getting around, because I just noticed that he links to the jpg I provided if you click on the details of the presentation. I just found this on the net, so I have no idea if it's open to the public. It is, however, posted online, so I'm guessing that it is until somebody tells me otherwise!
Secondly, I've permission from the author to repost this, which was posted to Latinteach:
