Grab and Go: Stories You'll Like

We like Thomas McMillan's piece for the NHI about The Grove, an Elm City "coworking" environment. 

Speaking of the NHI, we will stream, in this space, their ambitious forum on school change, and Mr. Dankosky will live-blog it. So come back at 7 p.m. if you're interested.

Need a haircut? Enjoy them while they're still tax free. Gov.-elect Malloy is looking at taking a little tax from you when  you take a little off the top.  Newspapers may get the same treatment. (Hey, they endorsed him!) In the same interview, Malloy says he would indeed sign a death penalty abolition bill. The Wall Street Journal says one will be introduced in the Connecticut legislature. 

Yale won a Gates Foundation grant for microloans. (For more, here's a WWL show on microfinance from Monday.) 

We just love the writing of Susan Dominus in this amusing piece about Red Hook bees with strange red honey. The piece mentions legendary Connecticut bee-man Andrew Cote, a guest on the CMS once upon a time.

Would Chris Dodd take the MPAA job? Yes, I think so.
