Procrastination, a (slightly) redesigned website, and a cow

I'm procrastinating from working on my classes for the fall semester and decided to spiffy up my website a bit with a slightly cleaner look and a home page that has an embedded photo album. I had every intention of working on the website for the seminar I'm teaching, but somehow got sucked into updating this site instead.

The first impression that someone gets upon landing on my page is now a cow.
