Service learning occurs when students are actively serving our community and engaging in disciplined reflection with faculty about this experience in ways that meet learning goals established in the curriculum. This type of learning is an important part of developing a passion for leadership and of strengthening leadership skills. We should all be proud that Marygrove's strong commitment to service and to urban leadership has attracted important resources to strengthen our service learning capacity. In February 2008, we received a grant from Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) for $30,000 to support our service learning work. MCC is part of a national network, 41 colleges and universities in Michigan, dedicated to promoting the education and commitment of college students to service learning and civic engagement. Also in February, we received another grant of $50,000 from the Kemper Foundation, a non-profit organization well-known for its support of innovative liberal arts college programs.

And MY AXE! by Bunny Plots
Summary: Whilst playing Rock Band with some friends I had the idea to have a Dwarvish heavy metal band; and, as I'm heavily into writing Gandalf fiction at the moment, I thought this would make a great challenge/bunny for all who enjoy a little AU/humor in their LOTR fanfiction. It can have pairings, it could be a drabble, an AU or a PWP, does not matter so long as the Dwarves are rockin' all night/day etc. Take it and run! -er rock, yeah, rock.

When the time came for the installation of the stonework and mantle piece, she had her contractors at the house on time and ready to go. The work went smoothly and the finished wall and mantle looked wonderful. I recommend her highly and am using her services for other improvements at the house.
Dawn was professional in every way. She always returned my phone calls promptly, had excellent suggestions that I hadn't even thought of and made it personal for my liking. She was sweet and fun to work with and her pricing was extremely reasonable and I couldn't of been more pleased with the outcome or my experience using Dawn.
She has a very good eye and I loved a lot of her ideas, but the cost of hiring someone to shop and the price of some of the furnishing ideas were out of the range that I could afford to spend.

What do you do during your hospital stay?
Started by MissM86 , Feb 13 2013 07:39 PM

Posted 13 February 2013 - 07:39 PM
When I had DD I went private and had a 5 day hospital stay. I don't think I made the most of it- I got up and showered pretty much straight away every day and then sort of tried to do 'stuff'. I didn't rest much and ended up sick and exhausted when I got home and my stitches burst whilst in hospital - probably because I was moving around too much.
I am due to give birth again this year and plan to do things differently. I will go private again so I am wondering - what do you do during your hospital stay? Do you stay in your PJs all day, stay in bed, watch tv? I need lessons in relaxation! I felt like I had to get up, get showered and get dressed because of all the cleaners, food staff and nurses coming and going all day.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 07:55 PM
I showered, but put on tracky and soft tops. I did private for my second and tbh, once they realised I knew what I was doing and didnt need help, I was lucky to see them once or twice a day, especially towards the end of the stay.
DH and I just hung out, took bubs for a bit of a walk around the ward, watched TV, ate and I read when he would go home.
Was very nice.
Oh they also had me tucked away into a back corner, so I think that helped with the peace and quiet too.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 07:57 PM
With my second (my first was far from normal after birth hospital stay.) I still got up each morning and had a shower and got dressed after I had breakfast otherwise I felt yuck - but then I found in the first week after birth I had about 3 showers a day anyway.
Then I spent my day watching TV, sleeping and reading. I found with my second I only had 2 visitors over 5 days, so didn't have to entertain whereas my first I had about 15 visitors in the first 12 hours before finding out how sick my son was and we were transferred.
Only work I did was tend to Ben if he woke up and wanted a feed or needed a nappy change, otherwise he pretty much just slept, sometimes when he was awake I would lay him on my bed and just talk and stare at him and enjoy it. For the first 3 nights the nurses even took him for me so I could sleep - so I really relaxed.
Also the hospital offered a candle light dinner one night of your stay with your partner, had a fancy menu to choose from, they would take the baby if you wanted and yes you ate at a nice table done up and brought in with 2 candles. It also included a bunch of flowers and a card to go with the teddy they gave on the first day.
I treated it like a hotel stay really, didn't clean my room or make my bed, they did that. Just sat and ate and slept. It was bliss.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 08:01 PM
I liked getting up and sorted in the morning. This took ages because of pain from c-section. Then the rest of the day would pretty much be a blur of feeds, crying baby, expressing, sterilising, feeding, expressing, sterilising, crying (me as well as him)....repeat. Last baby I did get to watch the Olympics while doing all this....and I saw it all, there was no sleeping LOL.
In all three stays there was a moment when I lost my shiz in the nursery and just broke down sobbing and begged them to have him for just one hour so I could sleep.
But I believe my experience is not the norm and that some newborns actually sleep a fair bit.

DD1 was a c/s so spent a bit of time getting over pain, learning to breastfeed and all the new baby stuff.
DD2 was fantastic, was only in for about 36hrs but basically slept and feed DD the whole time. I did get up and dressed tho. Nursing staff mostly left me alone when they realised I had some idea of what I was doing and only came in if I buzzed them. Best day and a half ever.
DD3 I only spent just over 24hrs in. I'd been so looking forward to spending a couple of days in hospital relaxing and just worrying about new bub, however, the maternity unit hadn't had a baby in just over a week before DD3 was born (small rural hospital, had 3 babies in the day after I went home), so the nursing staff kept wanting to "do something" for me, when all I wanted to do was sleep and feed! So I went home the next day, disappointed not to have my 2 days of doing nothing!!
Posted 13 February 2013 - 09:40 PM
DS1 - hand expressed, then pump expressed and tried to feed up my little 2.5kg boy. I was desperate to fatten him up, and he was slow and sleepy. I did snooze in the afternoons. Always had a shower and dressed in comfortable day clothes.
DS2 - BFing was easier. Showered every morning, comfy day clothes. When not looking after DS, I snoozed or watched TV. DH was with me a lot of the time so sometimes we chatted, and DS1 visited us every day for an hour or so. Still got home feeling sufficiently rested.
Each time, I've only sent them to the nursery for one 3-hour stint about 24 hours after the c/s, when I hit a wall and was afraid I'd drop them and needed the sleep. Felt guilty both times.
Posted 13 February 2013 - 10:56 PM
I had a CS with DS, so couldn't move around too much at first. I showered and dressed in my comfy maternity clothes, then pretty much spent all my time focussing on breastfeeding - getting DS to have a go, expressing with a pump, expressing by hand with a nurse 'catching' drops of milk with a syringe (!). DH was with me all day and we'd sit and chat and he'd feed me my meals, as DS was on the breast pretty much every time my food came! I didn't have the TV on at all and was pretty exhausted from a very long pre-labour and active labour, so wasn't too hard to just chill out.
Posted 14 February 2013 - 01:57 PM
With my first I thought it was going to be a nice time with visitors and having new baby. I went private on a very busy weekend in September where it seemed all of Sydney was having babies. We were overwhelmed with visitors in the first 48 hours and exhausted. Ds1 was a screamer so no sleep. I had no time for more than a quick shower mornin and night. Bf was a disaster because I was so tired and a horrid dose of third day blues. I was happy to go home frankly.
2nd time very different birth and we had ds1 at home. I got up and showered every morning, and focuses on bfing, and trying to relax as much a possible. He slept more so I was better rested on coming home. But I was lonely in hospital, the midwives still gave a plethora of conflicting advice, and I found being cooped up just as awful as the first time. I discharged myself after 3 days...I missed Dh and ds1 I'm used to noise and people, and I told visitors to stay away so I was actually pretty lonely
Posted 14 February 2013 - 04:35 PM
With DS I ended up spending almost two weeks at a public hospital, due to pre-eclampsia and a c-section, so I was well and truly over it by the end!
Before DS arrived, I spent my time lounging around and reading Agatha Christies, which was lovely! My DH also brought around lots of chocolate and Grapetiser to offset the bland food!
After DS came it was a blur, but I spent a lot of time seeing the in-hospital lactation consultant (I needed a nipple shield and practice with attachment), which I found really useful when I got home.
I didn't end up having any visitors apart from family, as I was doped up on pain killers and feeding DS every three hours, so that took the pressure off having to be presentable and sociable!
It's hard to relax in a hospital though, too much noise and bright light. I did enjoy having a shower first thing, so that I felt nice and clean and then wearing comfy stretchy clothing or pyjamas all day. If I have another baby, I will be bringing in lots of trashy magazines! Good luck with your impending birth!
Posted 14 February 2013 - 04:43 PM
I'm not very good at doing nothing but my second time around a very lovely, very firmly reassuring midwife talked through with me the details of my labour the next day and insisted I cancel or put off afternoon visitors and rest. She reminded me that my body had been through a great deal and needed the chance to recover. She also firmly encouraged me to sleep every afternoon. I'm really glad I took her advice. Those first few days went quite smoothly for me and the baby, with me making every effort to get that regular rest.
I showered, dressed comfortably and got back into bed each morning with baby in reach. I sat up for lunch and then stayed horizontal and slept for the afternoon (that really does help take the pressure off wounds and swelling). I'd freshen up when they came around with afternoon tea and then hop back into bed sitting up for visitors through the evening. I'd then shower again and potter quietly - TV, reading - before the late evening feed and then go to sleep.
Posted 14 February 2013 - 04:49 PM
DS1- I got the bounty bag straight after the birth so between my very few visitors I alternated between reading bounty bag items and sleeping. I'm not a TV watcher, I was in there 3 days and went insane from boredom.
DD- Again stuck in that hell hole for 3 days. I had a substantial bleed after her so wasn't strong enough to wander far from the bed. I didn't get the bounty bag until I was discharged, I hadn't packed a book, DH kept forgetting to put one in the car for me and had the room to myself. My phone had been left behind so I couldn't even play games on that. By the end of the first day I was begging to get discharged even though I was in no fit state to go home!
DS2- I managed to get early discharge! I showered, got dressed, fed DS2, had a sleep and they gave the go ahead for me to go home.
I hate being in hospital. The food was decent, nurses were lovely but I am claustrophobic and a very private person. If I don't get a room with a window to myself I start to get rather panicky. I'm also not a TV person and if I don't have a good supply of books and puzzles I go insane.
Posted 14 February 2013 - 04:59 PM
I enjoyed not having to cook or clean for 4 1/2 days.

I think second time around you're more relaxed in general, I found I definately was. What do you enjoy? A good book? A soppy movie? Prepare yourself with whatever you enjoy.
The things I did with DS I didn't do with DD - watched movies, had 2 massages (bliss!!) went for walks outside, went out for lunch, even got a pedicure! With DD I was more focused on learning how to care for her, utilizing the lactation consultant a lot! I didn't have as much time to relax.
I would get up and shower or have a spa in the morning just to feel clean, did at night too. Put on comfy clothes, nothing too fancy. Then just relax, put my feet up a lot as I had swelling, enjoyed the classes, got a lot from physio ones, just enjoyed the time knowing I didn't have to cook or clean!!
Posted 18 February 2013 - 02:26 PM
I have been in hospital and have made the most of it.
I do get up around 7 ish have a shower, get dressed, eat and have a coffee.
I spend the day feeding bub(bottle feeding plus expessing) so it's spaced out and resting while he's asleep which has been the whole time. I watch tv, enjoy the visiting times or use my iPad.
I have2 other kids so enjoy the break from the chaos at home.
5 days I'm over it though
Posted 18 February 2013 - 02:32 PM
Second time around hubby stayed two nights, I was alone with my daughter for the other three nights. I just watched TV, read magazines, messed about on the iPad, slept and recovered. I also only had immediate family visit so as to optimize rest time before going home with a newborn to my 18mth old
Posted 18 February 2013 - 02:39 PM
Hate being a patient, I'd rather sit at home on my own couch with my own food and watch TV. Doing that in hospital seems ridiculous to me, others obviously, feel differently .
Posted 18 February 2013 - 02:47 PM
I was a private patient but in a public hospital in my own room with both boys who were c-sections.
I was in 5 days and we paid for DH to stay over night so he was there the entire time. I wore soft yoga pants and a comfy roomy exercise top as I felt a bit blerg just being in pj's. I did do hair and makeup everyday to make myself feel a bit nice too.
I spent most of the time lying or sitting in the bed or chair, talking to DH and visitors, read books, played games, checked emails Facebook etc on my phone, browsed magazines DH brought up from the hospital news agency. I took everything really easy and it was over 30 hours after both ops before I was told to get out of bed and shower. It then was another day before I could slowly shuffle to the bathroom without help. I was very conscious of my insicion and did everything slowly and took it easy. I knew I wouldn't have that luxury when I got home do I made use of all the help.

DD - in for 3 days, public hospital but entire 4 bed room to myself. Aside from learning how to bathe her, bf and so on I was bored silly for most of it, would leave her sleeping with the nurses while I nicked off to the shop and even went out to see friends. Pestered the nurses to let me go home pretty well daily until I'd nagged them into acquiescence.
DS - in for 3 days again, private hospital own room with DH. Aside from visitors and getting bf sorted, we'd brought my laptop and a wireless internet connection for entertainment and access to the outside world, and even then I was climbing the walls to go home by the end of day 2. Would've left earlier but the painkillers wore off and I was a bit sore.
This time - planning to only be in overnight, or for the day if a morning birth. I hate hospitals.
Posted 18 February 2013 - 03:35 PM
I enjoyed the peace and quiet, well as much as you can on a maternity ward. I had visitors drop in but I liked having time with DD without the distractions of tv, cleaning, cooking etc. DH bought the laptop in so I spend some time on that and taking lots of photos of DD. I wanted to stay longer but that was mostly because MIL and FIL were staying at my house (univited )
Posted 19 February 2013 - 01:43 PM
I was lucky my hospital has a 'little luxuries' program where they move you to a hotel after a night or two if all goes well. It was bliss- we had ocean views, two queen beds, DH stayed with me the whole time and there was a special room service menu which was delicious. There are midwives there 24/7 and they come to check on you at regular intervals or if you call but otherwise they leave you to relax. And that's pretty much what I did, in between visitors. I had magazines to read and eBooks on my iPHone.
I am due with #2 in April and hoping so much that I get to go to the hotel again. I think we will bring DS though as I want him to feel part of everything and bond with his new sibling, so perhaps it wont be quite as relaxing as last time although I will have lots of family around to take him on excursions if he needs to get out, and he sleeps pretty well so hopefully it can be a mini holiday for all of us.
This post did make me think about the fact that I need to make sure I relax though, before we get home and the chaos escalates!!
Posted 19 February 2013 - 02:02 PM
I had a shower every morning when DH came in. He would watch her while I showered. Then we would just veg and go for walks around the hospital.
Posted 19 February 2013 - 11:09 PM
With all three I was home within 24hrs, I go a bit stir crazy and start missing the kids at home.
This time though I might stay a day depending on how it all goes and how I feel afterwards, if anything like the last two I will be up and walking around as soon as I'm allowed. After having ds1 I showered while DP joined him down to scn, fresh out of the shower and the midwife asked if I wanted to see him and my eyes lit up and i said yes, so she told me she would organise a wheelchair, then looked shocked when I asked if I could just walk there. If he hadn't been in scn for a few hours we would have been home that evening.
Some times a break is great other times you just want out of there. I was a up in the morning shower, and dress and bug each nurse that came near me for when I could go home.
Posted 19 February 2013 - 11:29 PM
I was in for 5 days. I watched quite a few shows on Youtube and also had a reasonable amount of visitors, as DS was born 3 days before Christmas, so lots of people were off work. I didn't find the visitors intrusive as the hospital had pretty strict visiting hours (DH could room in though, private hospital)
I did shower and make-up every day, but mainly because the rest of me looked so blergh and it was nice to have a bit of normality up top when I'd been living in jersey shorts and Tshirts for days and had frozen surfboards in my undies.
TBH the last couple of days I was bored sh*tless. DS was under lights for jaundice and was sleeping most of the time that he wasn't feeding, there was nothing good on TV because it was Christmas and I had no library books. If I get to do it again, I'll remember some good books at least. I was also a little bummed at missing Christmas Day lunch although my family came in in the morning to do presents. I did get a couple of hours out to go to a Boxing Day BBQ, but by the time they said DS was OK to go, I was raring to get out of there!
Posted 20 February 2013 - 01:00 AM
This time I birthed at night, so showered, at dinner and slept/breastfed.
Next day I showered, ate, facebooked, introduced DS to DD and my mums and sisters and slept.
Then I went home
I was in for a month with DD, so wasnt staying a moment longer than necessary
Posted 20 February 2013 - 03:20 AM
The first 24 hours I couldn't get out of bed, when I did I showered then just relaxed with my little guy.
We had a few visitors but mostly I stayed in bed, I wore comfy yoga pants and a singlet top. DS slept a lot, so while he slept, so did I.
I stayed at a nice hospital so enjoyed the food, my OB sent someone to give me a foot massage, I felt pretty chilled out the whole time. I didn't want to go home.

text: Church airs list of priests accused of sexual abuse Nearly 10 years after a worldwide clergy sexual abuse crisis erupted in the Boston Archdiocese, Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley today released a long-awaited roster of 159 archdiocesan clerics who have been accused of sexually abusing children. But O'Malley's action was immediately criticized by Attorney General Martha Coakley and advocates for clergy abuse victims because it lists only those priests who have already been publicly accused, and omits the names of dozens of accused priests from religious orders and other dioceses, as well as those who left the priesthood before accusations were leveled againt them. Church airs list of priests accused of sexual abuse from Metro Desk Jesus lovers............GFY. I don't want to hear your excuses.

Recently she has started paying paps $300 a day to meet her at certain times of the day to get "random" shots. They are so posed and ridiculous that paps are having a tough time even giving them away to the tabloids, but keep showing up for the money she pays.
BlindGossip – When some bold paparazzi asked this acting couple about a joke a comedian had recently made about the male half of their team, neither of them could muster a grin. Just icy, cold silence.
However, away from the cameras, he was quite furious about the whole thing. Unfortunately for him, there's no legal way to fight a blind joke.
On the other hand, the wife actually thought that the joke was hilarious, and had a difficult time not reacting in her husband's presence when she first heard it. While she's glad that she's held up her end of the deal, she can't be held responsible for other people chipping away at her husband's reputation. Their relationship has been over for months now, and she is just counting the days left on her contract, at which point she can cash out and move on. » Continued
CDAN – This former A list reality star and now just a celebrity with some kids has been complaining publicly about paps. What she has not said is how the other day she hid from the paps and would not let them take her photo until she did her makeup, changed clothes and then and only then just "happened" to show up right where the paps were.

Banner Ads & Image Ads On Google Images
Earlier this week, we noted a report that Google was showing banner ads on Google Images. Now via TechCrunch, a new implementation — an AdWords ad on Google Images with its own thumbnail image.
Notice in the screenshot above how a Guinness Logo is appearing next to a Target ad where NHL Buffalo merchandise is being sold on a search for buffalo logos. While a Guiness logo is being used as part of the ad isn't clear.
Here's the ad in context:
While showing an image next to ad is a big step for Google, it's not that far removed from video they've tested with some ads. But an actual banner ad that SearchViews spotted on Google Images is another thing entirely:
See it down at the bottom of the page? An actual banner ad. We're checking with Google for more details.
Postscript: Google sent this:
As part of our ongoing commitment to innovation and to help users find new and better ways of getting the information they're looking for, we are currently conducting a test to show ads on the results pages for Google Image Search. The experiment is restricted to U.S. advertisers who are using formats including text ads and static image ads.
Display Ads Coming In Image Search from us back in May has more details on how Google said this type of test would be coming. There's also some discussion now developing on Techmeme.
DON'T MISS OUT! The agenda for Search Engine Land's SMX West search marketing show is now up. Search marketing is the biggest area of digital marketing. You can't afford to get it wrong!

Via Cosby Sweaters:
The mascots for Louisville, Ky., high school basketball teams Manual High and Male High brawled on the court during a meeting between the two schools on Friday. The two — Manual's Ram and Male's Bulldog — were supposed to engage in a friendly "duel" at midcourt during a break in the action, but it turned serious when the Ram tried to drop-kick the Bulldog.
The packed gym roared as the two duked it out on the floor before the game eventually resumed, but students of each respective school reportedly were in involved in fights in the parking lot after the game.
Fights in school and in parking lots — isn't that the true spirit of high school?
So how many people are worried about the future? After watching this video and hearing the cheering and lack of breaking up the fight from teachers,refs, and parents. Just reminds me how messed up this country really is today. I guess we are all lucky the mascot didn't have a gun.
It shows how messed up Louisville is.

Trend Alert: Safari Gear
by Fashion 7 Reactions 0 Shares Print
I have yet to go on a real exotic and dangerous safari in the heart of Africa - though it is on my list. However, with this Spring's offerings of safari gear I can pretend to be battling overgrown foliage and witnessing nature's beasts in their elements. Or, I can sit at my neighborhood cafe and read I Dreamed Of Africa (tearjerker btw) and look very in vogue. For a needed bit of glamour, I would add an everyday gold necklace and bronzer for that just stepped off a Michael Kors runway look! Here are my picks.

No one actually wears this stuff on safari. My husband used to live in Africa and we've done safaris...basically it would be a bif fashion faux pas to actually wear this stuff. Whenever we're in the Atlanta airport, we like to go to the terminal where the flights to South Africa leave and laugh at the people wearing safari gear...to land in Johannesburg!!

I only like the jacket...but it's a cute look.
kscincotta 7 years
I have to admit that I get somewhat annoyed whenever people tell me that Safari, Nautical or Military styles are "in". These three styles are ALWAYS in and will continue to be so. They have become classics. A good cargo pant, military jacket or striped boatneck top are always going to look good. Please stop calling them trends. It's like saying it's a trend to wear a little black dress.

Monday, March 18, 2013
A man is hospitalized in critical condition following an accident earlier this morning in Derby.
The crash happened shortly before 7 a.m. Monday near Buckner and Patriot when the driver of a car lost control and went into a ditch.
The 55-year-old man was not breathing when crews arrived and rushed to an area hospital in very critical condition.
It's still unclear what caused the man to lose control, but investigators are looking into the possibility that the man suffered a medical condition just before the accident occurred. No one else was hurt.
KAKE News has a crew on scene. Check back for updates.

Member Directory: G
Studied fashion design and technology at London College of Fashion and Glass at Kensington and Chelsea College.
Terri is an artist who has been working with kiln formed glass since 2010. She works from her home studio in rural Washington state, USA. Having spent 20 years as an emergency physician, Terri has always been interested in the human form and finds continual inspiration in the strength of the human spirit. Her works are an exploration of this theme. Terri has been honored to have her piece, 'Kathryn' selected as a finalist in the 2014 Bullseye Emerge competition. Her most recently completed work is 'Natalie'.
I use many of the traditional techniques practised by stained glass artists over the centuries, to create work which is highly contemporary. I specialise in using decorative techniques in my work, including sandblasting, gilding, plating, false leading, kiln-fired paints and stains.
Jamie Gray is a glass artist who makes work on and about the Canadian prairies, focusing on issues of identity in a post-colonial culture. She is currently pursuing an MFA at the Edinburgh College of Art.
24 years glass making experience. Rejoined the fold after an hiatus of 9 years teaching FE Art & Design. Moving away from small gallery piece to larger scale architectural work. Having previously been a BAG committee member I am reacquainting myself with glass by doing an MA at the University of Wolverhampton.
Joanne works in traditional leaded glass and more contemporary glassworking techniques including fusing, screenprinting, sandblasting and engraving.Inspired by the natural world, her work draws upon the beauty and mystery often overlooked in everyday life.
My move from fine art to studio glass began at London Glass Blowing in 1994 where in subsequent years I became a freelance curator specialising in glass jewellery and glass art exhibitions. In 2004 I was introduced to Nulife Glass' unique furnace technology that recycles the glass from older style televisions, otherwise known as cathode ray tubes or CRTs. The process extracts metallic lead from the CRT glass and with my background in the creative sector and glass, I have collaborated with many artists to develop new products from the recycled material.
Recently retired, my profession was designing large corporate telecommunications networks.
I am now setting up a studio to carry out a hobby that was suspended 20 years ago. I am going to explore my artistic nature eventually combining pottery and glass in to works of art. I am a mature student attending master class in glass at the Tonbridge Adult education centre

Flush with cash, Walla wants to become big news
In an interview with TheMarker, CEO Ilan Yeshua reveals his strategy for turning the website into the country's leading content provider, with a little help from its $200 million sale of the online classified platform Yad2
Text size
At a time when most of Israel's content providers are struggling to survive, one of them has just made a cash killing. Walla, the Internet site that is part of the Bezeq group, is planning a major expansion of its news and content thanks to the sale earlier this month of its holdings in Yad2 for the whopping sum of 700 million shekels ($203 million). Yad 2, Israel's largest classified ads...

ForecastThis makes clearer argument against human judgment for all problems
Human beings have a difficult time ascertaining the right method to apply when predicting the outcome of a problem. The company making that assertion demonstrated its own case in point.
Study of studies concludes US broadband power is 'middling'
Certain American cities are demonstrating that it's possible to deliver broadband bandwidth to U.S. customers at prices that beat worldwide competition. But they're the minority.
The virtue of impermanence
A short discussion emerging from my response to a comment made by Tim Berners-Lee ponders why the "404-ing" of impertinent and irrelevant content may be a good thing.
Spotlight: The last mile is the longest mile
The principal cause of degradation in signal times for Internet communications is not at the service provider, but at the interconnection point between the premises or home and the ISP. Click to find out more.
Unify's Circuit seeks to bring Skype-like conferencing into browsers
The project formerly known as "Ansible" is being released as a fundamental breakthrough in browser-based communications. At first glimpse, it appears to be breaking through to 2011.
Sencha's Space mobile apps management tool tackles Androids, desktops
With HTML5 now complete (we hope), it's up to a mobile apps development frameworks maker to give HTML5 the cross-platform abilities it was supposed to have from the beginning.
Aereo wins by losing: FCC's Wheeler advocates rule change for net streamers
The die has now been cast, triggering alterations to the meaning of Internet service in America that would tip the net neutrality debate completely on its ear.
With HTML5 declared 'done,' W3C begins mission transition
There's a fork in the road, and not everyone is taking it. The Open Web Platform is charting its own course, which may or may not be bound to the HTML markup language.
Microsoft says JavaScript-based RTC is coming to Internet Explorer
Ever since WebRTC was declared a part of HTML5, IE's exclusion of the browser-based streaming standard was deemed a deficit. Now, an open source project sponsored by Microsoft attempts an end-around.

Some good, old-fashioned applied mathematics confirms what many online shoppers have always suspected: that their browsers may be doing the bartering for them, and not very well.
Spotlight: Machine learning may merely be justifying 'cartoon' learning, says expert
The highest orders of thinking in the 20th century, and on into the 21st, have been about whether understanding can be interpreted programmatically. "Learning" implies the cognitive ability to understand a topic or a function or a context; so "machine learning" implies that computers can essentially absorb this concept whole.
What Windows 10 still lacks for the enterprise
There's a chunk of the old world of work still lurking within even the latest public beta builds of Windows 10 Enterprise Edition. Yet there's a whole year to get that chunk removed.
It's the end of the Web as we know it (and I feel fine)
Mobile apps platforms are now setting the standard for how businesses should communicate with their customers. So does that mean we can stop waiting for HTML5 to be done?

It goes against human nature to take a small risk in order to avoid the losses from a larger one. And that, says the world's leading security expert, leaves us unprepared for the worst.
Spotlight: What if the Internet were an actual market?
I've often been asked to explain the "enterprise angle" behind net neutrality, and it's this: Whatever regulatory framework we decide to apply to conducting business on the Internet will decide what kind of economy will dominate the world through the remainder of this century.
Twitter courts mobile app developers with something like a platform
The commentary service could have simply said, please, please embed us in your apps, and here's an SDK, but don't violate our rules. Instead, Twitter went and did somethin' more clever-like.
Progress acquiring Telerik may stitch together next big PaaS platform
The CRM, PaaS and mobile app spaces are becoming dominated by companies that can do all three at once. In the interest of survival, maybe, Progress Software will put all three together.

Close to one-fifth of the world's VoIP software for PCs and unified communications platforms is built on an open source platform that, on Friday, plans to alleviate at least one cause of headaches.
Akamai reports last IPv4 addresses are being exhausted
The constant drain on the remaining supply of IPv4 addresses may finally be relenting, although in certain geographic regions, they're still being sucked out as with a straw.

Yellow House Coffee
When you drive down 34th Street in Lubbock, tucked among a strip of inconspicuous buildings, you will find a lovely little grey building with cheerful yellow trim. This is the home of Yellow House Coffee, a newer coffee shop in the city. Opening in the summer of 2013, this shop is less than a mile from J&B Coffee, but has been holding its own and offering a very different atmosphere. It is a small space, but does not lack in seating or character. I have come here to write on a few occasions and found it conducive to actually getting things done. There isn't the distraction of the constant flow of people in and out. Not to say it isn't busy, it just encourages a calmer pace than some of its counterparts. This space caters to friendly conversation or a quiet study atmosphere.
Yellow House uses Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters out of Dallas. They offer all the usual coffee and espresso drinks as well as pourover. I had a shot of espresso even though I was already so caffeinated I was shaking like a politician hooked up to a lie detector. The notes leaned heavy towards the smokey side with a little dark berry swimming in there. These guys don't just do coffee. They also bake, in house, cinnamon rolls, killer bagels, muffins and other goodies. I had an everything bagel and am glad I don't have access to this every day because I'd get bagel-bloated. I have poor willpower. Yellow House also makes their own syrups to flavor your drinks. I have a soft spot for handcrafted details like this. It shows an awareness of their ability to control quality and really bring out exactly what flavors they want in their finished product.
I was treated to a glass of cascara tea while visiting. This was actually my first time trying it and it really was what I expected. It's a cherry, so you can probably deduce for yourself what the major flavor note is.
I always appreciate the friendly service I get when I go into Yellow House Coffee. They may be the new kids on the block, but they are on the right track to being around for many more years.
