The Cartel
I don't understand how someone can defend bad teachers or the system that allows them to stay employed. A Voucher system is the way to go. What are Vouchers? Basically instead of public (tax) money being attached to the school. The public (tax) money is attach to the student. Which mean when you move your child to a different school the funds follow him/her. This has been done in many European school systems for years. It is a logical and better system for all involved, that is except teacher unions and the administrations that syphon off money from children's educations.

OWS LEADER
If I was the leader of the Occupy Wall Street movement. I would ask for new laws or reforms of old laws that are agaist corruption of politicians and institions.
I believe what protestors truly want is an end to corruption and irresponsibility by our society as a whole. I believe what they want is change, change that has been talked about but not implemented. The world is changing technologically and socially. Everyone knows it but the society as a whole doesn't seem to be moving forward. Progress. Progress is what we seek. The promise that our potential holds, the advancements we know of but don't come to fruition. We want that Progress, that world, that America.

Mechanical Animals - TED
This I found weird yet very facinating. All I could think of was using these "animals" as beast of burden. They could be used to move things by the military, construction, emergencies during disaster or individual necessities.
SixSenth interface - TED
This is cool. I want my augmented reality devices.
More possible uses of SixSenth.

Robot that fles like a bird. - TED
This is very cool. The people of FESTO do some interesting things.
