Ted talks tops 50 million: Top 10 Ted talks released
June 26, 2008 By
The TED conference just passed an important milestone this week.
50 million TED talks have now been viewed worldwide, nearly half of them outside the U.S.
My favorite because of the way she presented her presentation……hit a ton of emotions which kept the audience engaged and excited. (she is also easy on the eye)

Battery Mower
June 16, 2008 By
As I try and wrestle with my lawn each weekend. The sprinkler situation, the water shortage etc… I saw this little gem which I see has gotten some great reviews.
The Neuton CE 6.2 Mower gives you the powerful performance of a gas mower with convenience of battery technology. There is no gas or oil to spill and no engine emissions to pollute the air.
This is the most powerful mower with a removable, rechargeable battery you can buy. With 360 watt-hours of battery energy, it has plenty of power to mow through even tall, wet grass.
Would you buy one of these?
I like the idea of no cord. In fact I have run over quite a few cords. Also the gas ones are so noisy and dirty.
