...doesn't boost short-term profits, Google hopes serving schools for free will help broaden acceptance for Web-based e-mail and software services, says Jeff Keltner, who heads Google's Apps for Education team. Keltner says administrators appreciate not just cost savings but security benefits. "They walk away saying my data is probably safer in Google's data center than anywhere I would house it myself," he says. "And they appreciate the advantages to having data in the cloud, rather than residing on phones or laptops, which are devices that tend to get lost...
Sure, they may while away their days eating, sleeping and soiling diapers. But Alison Gopnik says it's high time that babies got some respect. In her new book, The Philosophical Baby, the University of California, Berkeley, psychologist says modern research is revolutionizing our understanding of the first years of life, revealing early childhood to be a frenzied period of intellectual, emotional and moral development. "Any child will put the most productive scientist to shame," she writes. Gopnik spoke with TIME about the origins of creativity, the "boondoggle" of educational toys and discerning right and wrong during this uniquely fertile...
...sang: smooth, clear, pretty. Her voice, tripled or sextupled in harmony, was the vocal version of his slide-guitar style. Her glissandi were intimate, as if she had been singing inside the microphone.

In the bridge - "There is no moon above, and love is far away too" - she lightly swings "above" and "and love," almost gulping each first syllable. You expect her to do the same with "is far," but she smartly refuses to surrender to giddy syncopation. She gives the final words in the phrase their full traditional value. When she reaches the last couplet - "Until you will...
...event is a huge operation. The Secret Service reserved 40 cars from Avis to ferry the security detail for the President's Western swing. On Aug. 12, C-17 military planes and at least one Marine helicopter had already been flown into the airport at Belgrade, about 20 minutes away on I-90 from Bozeman, to prepare for Obama's arrival and for the side trips to Yellowstone as well as for another town-hall meeting in Grand Junction, Colo. That meeting will be the President's third such appearance after one in New Hampshire on Aug. 11 and Montana...
