Simon Sinek: How Great Leaders Inspire Action (S771)
Made by TED From: Wimp.com on 10/20/2011 |
In this video Simon Sinek presents
a simple but powerful
model for how leaders inspire
action, starting with a
golden circle and the question
"Why?" His examples include
Apple, Martin Luther King, and
the Wright brothers -- and
as a counterpoint Tivo, which
(until a recent court victory
that tripled its stock price)
appeared to be struggling.

Subj: Lights
Out For Solar Power (S780)

.........php?77042-Lights-Out-For-Solar-Power
The next time y'all are in the dark...
I have a friend who used her
solar lights inside at night
when her current was off during
the hurricane.
She stuck them in a jar or bottle
and said they gave off
plenty of 'free light'.
She put one in each room and would
put them back outside in the
daytime and bring them in at
night as long as the current
was off. They are safe to use
and cheaper than batteries.
Bring in a solar light one night
and test it.
Due to a thunderstorm, we lost
power for about 5 hours. We
were scrambling around in the
darkness, looking for matches,
candles, flashlights, etc.
We looked outside, and noticed
our solar lights shining brightly
all around our patio, stairs,
dock, etc. They were beautiful!
My wife walked outside, and
brought several of the solar
lights inside.
We stuck the solar light pipes
into plastic drink bottles
containers and they made the
nicest, brightest, safest,
lighting you could ever imagine.
We put one in the bathroom, the
kitchen, the living room, etc.
There was plenty of light!
There are all types of solar lights
available. We bought ours
at Harbor Freight. We put them all
around our yard. They
look nice and they do not attract flying
bugs like the outdoor lights
around our doorway.
The lights we have fit into the
small (20 oz) water bottles and
they also fit into most of the
larger liter bottles. If you
need a weight in the plastic
bottle to keep them from tipping
over, you can put a few of the
pretty colorful "flat marbles"
that they put in aquariums,
and vases. (you can also use sand,
aquarium gravel, etc., whatever
you have available).
The lights we have, were perfect
inside our home. They burn
all night long, if you need
them. The next day, you just take
your solar lights back outside.
They will instantly recharge,
and be ready for you to use
again, any time you need them.
Perfect for power outages, hurricanes, etc.

Paul Bloom: The Origins Of Pleasure (S759)
From: Wimp.com on 8/1/2011 |
 |
Why do we like an original painting
better than a
forgery? Psychologist
Paul Bloom argues that human
beings are essentialists --
that our beliefs about
the history of an object change
how we experience
it, not simply as an illusion,
but as a deep feature
of what pleasure (and pain)
is. Click on either

fascinating TED
video.
