Many areas are under-represented, particularly economics, game theory, astrophysics and experiment. Feel free to add anything that interests you. This list contains suggestions only; we do not have to stick to it. Indeed, I encourage you to choose your own papers to talk about. In addition, I also encourage discussions based on papers that have appeared on the arXiv in the past week, or short expository articles such as the ``What is ... ?'' series of the \href{http://www.ams.org/notices/201406/}{Notices of the AMS} [see also \href{http://arminstraub.com/math/what-is-column}{here}]. Requests for themes to run over two or three weeks are also welcome. And if you can't think of anything, pick any paper of GI's and I will be happy. \section*{Soft Matter} \begin{enumerate}[1.] %\item %W. Cai, T.C. Lubensky, P. Nelson, and T.
