We use data from the first 100 square-degree field observed by the South Pole Telescope (SPT) in 2008 to measure the angular power spectrum of temperature anisotropies contributed by the background of dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) at millimeter wavelengths. From the auto and cross-correlation of 150 and 220 GHz SPT maps, we significantly detect both Poisson distributed and, for the first time at millimeter wavelengths, clustered components of power from a background of DSFGs. The spectral indices between 150 and 220 GHz of the Poisson and clustered components are found to be 3.86 +- 0.23 and 3.8 +- 1.3 respectively, implying a steep scaling of the dust emissivity index beta ~ 2. The Poisson and clustered power detected in SPT, BLAST (at 600, 860, and 1200 GHz), and Spitzer (1900 GHz) data can be understood in the context of a simple model in which all galaxies have the same graybody spectrum with dust emissivity index of beta = 2 and dust temperature T_d = 34 K. In this model, half of the 150 GHz background light comes from redshifts greater than 3.2. We also use the SPT data to place an upper limit on the amplitude of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich power spectrum at l = 3000 of 13 uK^2 at 95% confidence.

Sensitivity of Next-Generation CMB Surveys to Neutrinos and Other Light Relics
CMB-S4 forecasts: the two-site design reaches sigma(Neff)=0.029 in seven years, the Chile-only revised design reaches 0.030 in nine, and a cosmic-variance-limited survey would reach 0.0073.

Delensing Degree-Scale $B$-Mode Polarization with High-Redshift Line Intensity Mapping
High-redshift line intensity mapping could add about 11 percent to CMB-S4 delensing performance, but only if line-of-sight density modes survive foreground removal.

Detecting rotation from lensing in the CMB
If lensing field rotation also rotates CMB polarization, SPT-3G plus galaxy-survey templates should detect the effect at SNR~7, and CMB-S4 deep could detect it internally at 3.9σ.
