TED Talks video: Seth Godin argues the Internet has ended mass marketing and revived a human social unit from the distant past: tribes. Founded on shared ideas and values, tribes give ordinary people the power to lead and make big change. He urges us to do so.

Minneapolis is considered one of the most environmentally friendly cities in the country, with good reason. Now one the cities largest roofs has gone green.

Target Center's 2.5 acre roof is now the largest green roof in the State, the fifth largest in the entire country and tenth largest in the world. Designed by local landscape architect Peter MacDonagh this green roof will provide benefits that extend well beyond the dollar savings on heating and cooling of the Target Center.

It is already helping water quality of the Mississippi River. It's estimated the green roof will capture one million gallons of storm water annually, preventing runoff into the Mississippi. During construction much of the old roof was recycled.

It's a green space not many of us will have the chance to visit, but we will all benefit from this green roof!

I love it!

Kucinich: "Why is it we have finite resources for health care but unlimited money for war?

"The inequities in our economy are piling up: trillions for war, trillions for Wall Street and tens of billions for the insurance companies. Banks and other corporations are sitting on piles of cash of taxpayer's money while firing workers, cutting pay and denying small businesses money to survive.

"People are losing their homes, their jobs, their health, their investments, their retirement security; yet there is unlimited money for war, Wall Street and insurance companies, but very little money for jobs on Main Street.

"Unlimited money to blow up things in Iraq and Afghanistan, and relatively little money to build things in the US.

"The Administration may soon bring to Congress a request for an additional $50 billion for war. I can tell you that a Democratic version of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is no more acceptable than a Republican version of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

"Trillions for war and Wall Street, billions for insurance companies... When we were promised change, we weren't thinking that we give a dollar and get back two cents."
