			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It's been a <a href="http://flowingdata.com/2010/07/05/running-on-thesis-fumes/">hectic month</a>. With one month left until my thesis defense, there's no letting up, and it's time to turn on the after burners. It's definitely been interesting though, culling everything I've learned these past five years. </p>
<p>As it turns out, writing for FlowingData is actually a nice break from thesis-writing every now and then, so I've managed to keep things up and running around here. Thanks to everyone who has sent suggestions. You've been a big help. And of course, thanks to all who continue to share FlowingData. Much appreciated.</p>
