Wow...2016. What a long, strange trip it's been.

But it's over, and once again, without further ado: we close out the Pick-of-the-Week year with a review of our Picks of the year.

You can read the original blog posts for each of these picks by clicking on the names of the files and following the links to the "Pick of the Week" tag.

As always, your comments are welcome. Happy New Year, everyone!
