inetwork, a division of Bandwidth and the leading choice for innovative and scalable voice, 9-1-1 and SMS solutions, today announced the results of a new survey it commissioned from research firm ATLANTIC-ACM to better understand the disruptive factors and trends U.S. wholesale voice buyers think will most impact their businesses.
End of the (Land) Line
Specifically, the survey revealed the dramatic changes in how service providers will offer – and end-users will consume – telephony services. Key findings tied to disruption in the communication services market include:
- 74 percent of respondents noted that the death of the office landline – the desk phone – will be the single most disruptive force in voice services, anticipating the continued penetration of mobile devices by business users.
- 72 percent of respondents placed the migration to 100 percent VoIP over long-term evolution (LTE) as a close second in market disruption, representing the continued blurring of the lines between wireless carriers and VoIP service providers.
- 70 percent of respondents noted the death of "Plain Old Telephone Service" (POTS) as the third most disruptive factor, with providers of legacy phone services looking to gain efficiencies and offer end-users the enhanced features only available from IP-based platforms.
- Nearly half of respondents cited new competition as their biggest threat, beating out the more traditional threats of pricing pressure or market consolidation. New entrants approaching telecom from the Software as a Service (SaaS) perspective will more aggressively compete in what has historically been the domain of a relatively small number of traditional dial tone providers.
"While certain resellers will claim there is still money to be made in Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS), the overall market continues to decline," said Dr. Judy Reed Smith, CEO of ATLANTIC-ACM. "End-user migration to wireless, VoIP and everything in between will drive shrinking demand for traditional wholesale voice services, leaving those providers unwilling to deviate from 'business-as-usual' in the dust."
APIs for Phone Services
The ATLANTIC-ACM survey also revealed the availability of application programming interfaces (APIs) increases respondents' interest to work with a given wholesale provider. In addition, the influence of APIs is particularly evident among those who plan to increase their spending in the coming year, indicating that more businesses are looking to integrate voice services directly into their end-user applications or services.
"A growing number of our wholesale voice buyers are going beyond selling dial-tone by using our APIs to embed voice and SMS services into their end-user offerings. They are breaking new ground by developing 'over-the-top app' for IP-enabled mobile devices, call analytics purposes, rich media, social networks, limited only by their imagination," said Steve Leonard, executive vice president and general manager of Bandwidth's inetwork division. "The survey results prove that the 'phone' as we know it, and the telecom industry in general, are pushing the boundaries into an entirely new phase – one that inetwork is uniquely positioned to support."

Not a deli, more like a carry out. I would consider Byblos a tad on the dive side, however its not a bad thing. Good mediterranaen menu with traditional american carry out, burgers, etc..

Fair Warning: this review may be biased. I have been a fan of Byblos for about 4 years. It has a special significance to my husband and I, as we have been going there since we started dating.

"It was nice, but definitely on the lower end of tiny prints products. I had a gift card otherwise I would've found something similar for half the price on another site."
"This card turned out great! I was surprised by the thickness and quality of the paper as I was expecting a photo paper card. Excellent design and the coated finish added a nice touch."
"I submitted card and put in to have it reviewed for no charge. The person who reviewed it took a personal interest in improving my card. Emily was unbelievable and the end product was 'clearly' due to her great work. Greatly appreciated!"
"This is the first time we've used Tiny Prints, but it's not the last. Love the design and the ease of adding our family photos. Everyone has said that this is the best looking card they'd received this year. I also loved the next day delivery. Although it was not expected, it was much appreciated!"
"perfect photo blocks and sentiment for our Christmas card - filled the large space with entire-family photo and 4 smaller blocks with individual family units"

Georgia Museum of Agriculture and Historic Village
The agriculture. A living history museum located in Tifton, the ninety-five-acre site offers a traditional farm community of the 1870s, a progressive farmstead of the 1890s, an industrial complex, and a rural town, as well as other attractions.
The idea for the museum grew out of a conversation between Ford Spinks, a former state senator, and Rosalie Shepherd, the widow of James L. Shepherd, a research scientist with the Coastal Plain Experiment Station in Tifton. James Shepherd had invented the first mobile peanut combine machine, and no suitable housing could be found for it. Spinks spearheaded efforts to build a museum of Georgia agricultural history, and the Agrirama opened to the public on July 1, 1976.
In Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, and the facility was subsequently renamed the Georgia Museum of Agriculture and Historic Village.
The site includes more than thirty-five restored or reconstructed buildings, including the Victorian-style Tift House, a water-powered gristmill, a one-room school, and assorted farmhouses. Staff members in period costume interpret the history of the wiregrass region of south Georgia by recreating the daily activities of the community in the late nineteenth century. Other attractions include the Vulcan Iron Works Steam Locomotive, the Georgia Museum of Agriculture Center, and a full-service conference facility.

P-Bruins take You Can Play pledge
The Providence Bruins, in their 21st season in the American Hockey League, today became the third AHL team to take the "You Can Play Pledge" as part of the ongoing relationship the AHL has with the You Can Play Project, which works to end homophobia in sports.
In support of the You Can Play Project, the team has released a video featuring 11 players and head coach Bruce Cassidy.
The pledge was created by the You Can Play Project as a way to encourage organizations and players to speak up against homophobia in the locker room and arena.
Providence Bruins players Carter Camper, Christian Hanson and Alden Hirschfeld have a personal connection to the Burke family and invited project co-founder and president Patrick Burke to speak to the team following a game in early December about "You Can Play." Burke and his father, former Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brian Burke, have made it their mission to break down the walls of homophobia in professional sports in memory of Brendan, Patrick's younger brother who died in a tragic motor vehicle accident on Feb. 5, 2010.
At the time of his passing, Brendan was the student manager for the Miami University RedHawks men's ice hockey team, which Camper and Hirschfeld were members of.
The Providence Bruins players and personnel who took part in the video are, in order of appearance: Bobby Robins, Christian Hanson, Chris Bourque, Tommy Cross, David Warsofsky, Alden Hirschfeld, Lane MacDermid, Colby Cohen, Carter Camper, coach Bruce Cassidy, Max Sauve and Niklas Svedberg.
The Bruins join the Toronto Marlies and Peoria Rivermen as AHL teams to have taken the You Can Play pledge.

Step 1
This is a quick papercraft you can make just for fun or to piece together to use as a decorative garland.
All you need is a piece of rectangular paper, scissors, a pen or pencil, and a ruler (or other item to help you draw a straight line).
The piece of paper used in this tutorial is 8 1/2 inches wide by 5 1/2 inches high (21.59 cm wide by 13.97 cm high).
If you are using standard letterhead or photocopy paper, just cut it in half and use the top or bottom portion.
Step 2
Lay the piece of paper in front of you with the short sides on either side.
Fold the top edge down so it lines up exactly with the bottom edge and make a firm crease in the middle.
NOTE: Be very careful as you complete the following folding steps of this craft to ensure everything lines up evenly. It is important for all folds and edges to be symetrical.
Step 3
After making the initial crease, open the paper and flatten it out with the crease pointing upward as shown.
Step 4
Fold one side (long edge) over to the middle crease as shown.
Repeat the same step on the opposite side, folding the edge over to the middle crease.
Step 5
The end result will be a fan fold, with the paper folded into 4 even panels as shown.
Step 6
After completing your fan fold, lay the folded paper on a flat surface and use a ruler or similar item to draw a straight line down each side approximately 1/4 inch (0.635 cm) from each edge. It doesn't matter which side of the folded paper is facing up for this step.
The lines will be used as a guide when you begin cutting during the following step.
Step 7
Next, make alternating cuts down the entire length of the paper.
Start by making one cut from the outer edge of the folded paper to the guideline on the opposite side.
After completing the initial cut, flip the folded paper around and repeat this same step on the other side.
Space each cut about 1/4 inch (0.635 cm) apart.
Stay focused so you don't forget to switch sides after each cut. Doing so will ruin the fishnet design.
Try to keep the cuts evenly spaced and try to cut as close to the guidelines as possible so the finished fishnet pattern is symetrical.
Step 8
Here is a photo of the folded paper after I finished making the alternating cuts. I was using a lightweight card stock to make my design so it began to twist as I completed the cutting step. I thought this was pretty cool so I grabbed this photo before proceeding to the next step. :-)
Step 9
After you have completed the alternating cuts, carefully unfold the paper and smooth it out on a flat surface. It can be a little tricky unfolding the paper due to all the cuts, so work slowly and cautiously to prevent tearing.
Step 10
Grab ahold of each side (short ends of the paper) and carefully pull the paper outwards.
Step 11
Congratulations! You have completed your fishnet design.
If anyone has creative ideas for using this design, please post your version of this project so we can all enjoy it here on Cut Out & Keep.
I love this. I think I'm going to make heaps and stick them all around my room.
Hi Jenny -- I'm glad you like this. If you make "heaps and stick them all around" your room, make sure you post a photo on here. :-) I would love to see the outcome.

Managment needs to communicate more to their team.
