Add icons for Google Scholar, LinkedIn, CV #2

That's "curriculum vitae" not "control voltage" ;-). I am thinking just literally tiny letters "CV" in a circle if it can fit and not look too bad.

The icon set is served from Font Awesome. This font set is great - it means that loads of icons are available at your fingertips that can all be styled and resized using CSS.

Bonus is that their icon set is HUGE. If you want to add an icon for something, check out the Font Awesome Cheat Sheet. If there's an icon for it, just put the name (without the preceding 'fa-') in the icon: field of the yml file.

For example, if I want to link to my podcast:

  - link: http://itunes.com/recipesForTurtles
    icon: podcast

This will put the podcast icon - which you can see on the cheat sheet - into the little link circle. Awesome!

There isn't an icon for Google Scholar or Academia.edu, but there is a nice graduation-cap icon that might suffice?
