I Love my TED Talks iPad app, Top 5 favorites.  You can jump on browse through the hundreds of TED presenters recorded and posted free on the web.  Over the weekend I read about Kate Orff.  Kate is trying to revive New York’s polluted rivers with the use of Oyster’s.  Quite an interesting talk and very informative about oysters and the role they play in cleaning polluted waters.  The Video is short and I invite anyone with an extra 12min to check it out.
