Do you know any 6th, 7th or 8th graders who would be interested in a TEDx experience designed just for them? TEDxSMU is producing the 2nd annual TEDxKIDS conference on Friday, October 15 for middle school students, and applications to attend are only open through September 17.

TEDx kids are leaders, artists, creators, innovators, inventors. They are excited about science and technology or getting involved in their community. They are inquisitive and respond to nontraditional teaching methods. All are open to new ideas and respectful of others.

 We hope inquisitive, engaged students from all over the Metroplex will join us  for an afternoon of inspiring speakers, energetic discussions, and eye-opening demos.

 TEDxKIDS @SMU
October 15, 2010
12pm – 5pm
Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre at the AT&T Performing Arts Center

      All applications are due by September 17.

 More information about TEDxKids @SMU is available on our website: www.TEDxSMU.org/TEDxKIDS. Please forward on to other administrators, teachers, parents or others that might be interested in this exciting enrichment opportunity.

P.S. There’s also an opportunity for high school junior & senior students to be involved…information about the “camp counselor” program is available on our website.

NeighborGoods is a safe community where you can save money and resources by sharing stuff with your friends. Need a ladder? Borrow it from your neighbor. Have a bike collecting dust in your closet? Rent it out for some extra cash!

One of the things I love about traveling is catching up on the randomness of the world through in-flight magazines. At this very moment I’m sitting on a flight to NOLA (!) and reading the June issue of Southwest Airlines Spirit. As expected in the Business Pitch section I discovered one of those “I wish I had thought of this” smartness that is so simple, yet I’m sure will become a fav. Key Ring Rewards Cards is a free app that scans a digital copy of your rewards cards using a barcode reader. “When you shop, just pull up the card and let the cashier scan the screen (works on iPhone & Android). You can access more than 700 rewards programs and coupons from retailers like Borders, CVS, and Best Buy, while adding local businesses with the customize tool.” Not only is this a great idea, but it was developed by Ross Bates and Chris Fagan who is co-founder of Dallas-based Mobestream Media. This of course means automatic cool points!
