world news
Better World Books is a for-profit social enterprise that collects used books and sells them online to raise money for literacy initiatives worldwide. We offer great bargains on used books - over 6 million used and new titles, with free shipping anywhere in the U.S. and just $3.97 worldwide. What’s more, you love cheap used books and so does the environment – when you buy used, you save books from landfill and conserve resources. . . I think this is a great website for bookworms.
The Oprah video is about this girl named Lisa Ling whose sister and friend were captured in north korea. A facebook group was started to help ease her pain. Everytime she posts statuses about how she misses her sister, thousands of people reply and comfort her. I think this is amazing how that many people feel compassion for her.
Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore made a New Year's resolution to get "in front" of one specific cause. This cause is to be abolitionists for 21st century slavery and human trafficking. They will back up Barak Obama towards the same goal. They are doing a great thing and will strive to get rid of sexual exploitation in children.
Toms shoes was founded for one goal: to give children without a pair of shoes. For every pair of shoes purchased, a pair is given to a child in need. Blake Mycoskie founded TOMS shoes in 2006. TOMS has given over 140,000 pairs of shoes.They plan on giving around 300,000 in 2009 alone. I think TOMs choes is a great organization. I plan on purchasing some one day soon hopefully. The Press link tells of major magazines and press that support or have advertised TOMs shoes.

virtual hip resurfacing - okay i kinda get all the hip and knee surgeries confused but i think i remember that i liked this one. its pretty fun to see how they do that.
virtual hip replacement - this one was tight. i had to put a whole new socket into the leg to make the cup fit right. i liked the noise it made when they popped it back into place. POP!
the odd machine - this was propably the most interesting out of all the edheads. you had to use your brain and figure out which machine would work the best.

Sprint and Samesung launch a biodegradable cell phone
On August 16, Sprint and Samsung put an "eco-conscious" cell phone on the market. What makes this "green" phone biodegradable is its 40 percent corn-based plastic cover. The charger also lights up when it's fully charged to save electricity. How much do these phones go for? Only $50 with a 2-year contract after the mail-in rebate.
