As an ISP we added a Netflix peer via "Netflix Open Connect" last week and are offloading 4Gbit per/sec at peak usage via BGP directly to Netflix rather than wasting our dia bandwidth to Cogent, Level3, or other Backbone providers. By meeting them at IXPs like the TIE and NOTA a few of many, ISPs can directly offload traffic to most major application providers for free like Netflix. Google, and Facebook just to name a few. Why Verizon wastes their DIA bandwidth for Netflix is idiotic. Verizon owns Terremark which includes NOTA. They could be directly peering with Netflix themselves. I think it's more likely they have issues keeping up with it from a cellular perspective through their own infrastructure. Going through Cogent instead of directly to Netflix defeats the point of IXPs like NOTA.
Maybe the kid afraid to raise their hand "shy" and ask a question has found this as a way to express their opinion as it has done for my child with Aspergers. I don't see how raising your hand has anything to do with obesity.
My son is in a year round STEM school in NC and their school uses a system based on android called Amplify http://www.amplify.com/. It isn't just an app it is a modified android tablet that allows students to participate as a collective in the individual classroom. Students can use the table to raise their hand, ask question and participate in classwork. Teachers use it to teach their curriculum and after a lesson can deploy a quick quiz so the teacher knows who understood the lesson and who may need additional help. Teachers can see what each student is doing on their tablet at any time with the master teacher's tablet. Each individual student has their own tablet and the tablets are locked down, always on with att 4G when off campus and students take the tablets home to do their homework on them. Their main responsibility is charging the tablet every night. It has been great over the last school year watching my son enjoy his curriculum in new ways using his tablet and the best part is really how well the tablet fits into the classroom and is replacing the tradition text book. The program was supposed to be only a 1 year test of the product but the school has asked to allow the 6th grade students to continue to use their tablets in 7th grade. Kudos to Amplify I hope all schools in this country will stop wasting money on promises and use something that I personally have already watched prove itself as a fantastic learning product for my 7th grader.
Right now is a good time to renegotiate upstream contracts. Metro-Ethernet has become the new DS3. Not only is it cheaper to get Metro-E than lease lines. The hardware is also much cheaper. High bandwidth serial interfaces are still expensive. Ethernet is cheap. Why don't you look at renegotiating or bidding out your upstream bandwidth. I would bet you can get more bang for you buck. Go back to the boss with a deal for more upstream bandwidth for less than your currently paying.

The point is we already took our src and gave it back to the community. We submitted our patches to uClibc, and gentoo-embedded continues the original development done on i386 soekris boards to other architectures. Gentoo-embedded involves other embedded developers contributing to a build enviroment that you can build any opensrc software in from scratch as long as their is an ebuild in portage. Only factors really are space and device architecture. It also stores all your bins in ipkg format I might add... Also for the foo's talking about compiling on the device. You could do that if you could nfsmount your chroot build enviroment and were an idiot, or you could just build your devices image in the build-root enviroment using you nice desktop then move the image to the device like a normal person.

Not really,
Their product sucks ass in linux. Like I need to pay them monthly to configure my wine. If I were lucky, they might update their product this century.
I have better luck with wine on my own.
They can get their cake from the mac folks....
You hit the nail on the head.
