The Clod and The Pebble
“Love seeketh not itself to please,
Nor for itself hath any care,
But for another gives its ease,
And builds a Heaven in Hell’s despair.” So sung a little Clod of Clay
Trodden with the cattle’s feet,
But a Pebble of the brook
Warbled out these metres meet: “Love seeketh only self to please,

A Twitter Lawyer Is Outraged Over This Google... →
Google added an optional feature to its search engine called Search plus Your World. It includes content from the social networks you belong to in the search results.
Because Twitter does not allow Google’s alogrithmic crawlers full access to the Twitter.com domain, the feature does not include content from Twitter. (Google used to pay for this privelege, but it stopped over the summer.)

How Yoga Can Wreck Your Body →
foldedmaptravel:

In my routine, yoga is simply a way to calm and center myself, or even to recover from an intense workout. I rarely push myself to do anything but stretch and breathe. But I will surely be mindful...
