Recent results in the center vortex model for the infrared sector of   Yang-Mills theory
  A model for the infrared sector of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, based on magnetic vortices represented by (closed) random surfaces, is presented. The model quantitatively describes both confinement and the topological aspects of Yang-Mills theory. Details (including an adequate list of references) can be found in hep-lat/9912003 and hep-lat/0004013, both to appear in Nucl. Phys. B.
