Многие идут в благотворительность, чтобы услышать “спасибо!” или получить какие-то позитивные эмоции. Но что, если вместо слов благодарности люди, которым вы помогаете, попытаются вас обмануть, унизить или ограбить? Как после этого найти в себе силы продолжать делать добрые дела? А главное, как ответить себе на вопрос — “Зачем я это делаю?”.
В своем выступлении на TEDxSadovoeRing Виктория Валикова рассказывает о том, что помогает ей не сойти с выбранного пути и почему так важно продолжать помогать людям не разделяя их на “плохих” и “хороших”. Виктория Валикова – врач-инфекционист из Уфы, тропиколог, уже много лет занимается организацией здравоохранения в странах с ограниченными ресурсами. Свое призвание Виктория нашла в джунглях Латинской Америки, где строится уже вторая клиника ее благотворительной организации Health

Musician Scott Mescudi, aka Kid Cudi, returns to his high school to talk about growing up and his career path in the music industry.
Born Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi in Cleveland, Kid Cudi began rapping while attending Shaker Heights High School and later Solon High School. In 2004, Kid Cudi moved to Brooklyn, NY to pursue his rap career. He released his first mixtape, “A Kid Named Cudi,” in 2008. The mixtape earned Kanye West’s attention, leading him to sign Cudi to his GOOD Music imprint. As an up-and-coming artist, Cudi contributed hooks and lyrics to songs by West and Jay-Z, including “Heartless,” “Paranoid” and “Already Home.” These collaborations set the foundation for Kid Cudi’s successful solo career. He signed with Universal Motown in 2009 and released his first full-length album later that year. Cudi earned his first three Grammy Award nominations in 2010, two for his single “Day ‘n’ Nite” and one for the collaboration “Make Her Say.” In 2012, he won two Grammy Awards for “All of the Lights,” a collaboration with West, Rihanna and Fergie.

Tom Thum: Armed with just a microphone, Thum pushes the limits of the human voice to create incredible soundtracks of impossible beats and phenomenal sounds, with scratched vinyl, the Michael Jackson back-catalogue, the didgeridoo and an entire fifties jazz band amongst his vocal repertoire.
You can follow Tom on FaceBook (TomThummer) and Twitter (@tomthummer)
Quoting from ABCs Triple J Unearthed website:
«TOM THUM, THE VERSATILE VOICEBOX Tom Thum appears to have swallowed an entire orchestra and several backing singers The Guardian (UK)
There are not enough superlatives to describe the wonder of this beatboxing virtuoso — I am still trying to figure out how he got those sounds out of his mouth The Daily Telegraph (UK)
The mic master seems to have an orchestra living in his throat: trumpet blasts, guitar strums and samples from classic songs including Michael Jacksons „Billie Jean“ effortlessly spout from his mouth Time Out, NY
These are apt quotes to describe the performance of one of Australias most prominent and respected beatboxers and serial pests. Only in his mid-twenties Tom Thum has achieved and experienced more than most artists could hope to achieve in a lifetime. From winning the team battles (alongside Joel Turner) in the World Beatbox Championships in 2005, to fulfilling every artists dream and performing on Broadway in New York with the Tom Tom Crew, Tom has seen his fair share of accolades and well and truly paid his dues. Raised by the small but accommodating Brisbane hip hop scene, Tom started out as a graffiti writer and a Bboy but slowly rose to recognition through his ability to produce unhuman sounds and his natural knack for performing and weaselling his way on stage…
Although the stage seems the ideal habitat for Tom he is also no stranger to community and has been helping the scene improve through conducting a plethora of workshops in many places that usually wouldnt have access to such knowledge and skill. Tom has travelled from the very top of Australia teaching in the Indigenous communities of Mornington and Thursday Islands all the way to the very bottom with a series of workshops in Tasmania and Adelaide.
He has also spent considerable time teaching on Palm Island and in Charleville and many other places that would otherwise be Starved for education about proper hip hop and the positive message that music preaches.
As Toms experience within the music industry expands, he plans to push the limits of the human voice as far as inhumanly possible. Enrolling the help of numerous loop stations, Tom has been conducting DJ sets using only his voice and nothing else, propelling crowds across the country into a frenzy of jaw-dropping disbelief, as he re-creates and remixes classic joints and jams from all eras and genres. At present Tom is working on an album ranging across many different generes and features and hopes to have it finished by early 2012. You might see him on a stage at a festival looping up a storm or supporting anyone from the Hilltop Hoods to Blue King Brown, or you might catch him annoying the hell out of commuters on public transport. Either way, you will notice him soon enough. Keep an ear out for Tom Thum.»

لتبدأ الرِحلة…
لتهرب من الواقِع وتقصِد السفَر فمن المؤكد أنك تبحثُ عن الراحة…
والطائرة التي ربما تحلق قبل أن تكمل اجراءاتك…
ألست بحاجةٍ لحلٍ يجعلُك آمِناً من المنزِل حتى الطائرة ؟
أو ربما وأنت عائد للوطن بعد طول غياب ، ونسيت المعالم والطرق ، وتخوّفت من أن تتوه وسط الشوارع و عناء إجراءات الوصول!
ما رأيُك أن تستقبلك سيارة ، ويكمل عنك فريق كل اجراءاتك ، ونأخذك لوجهتك دون عناء أو مشقة…
ماذا عن المرضى في الانتظار، واكمال الاجراءات…

3D printing is not just a cool technology for rapid prototyping,
modelling and specialist one-off products. It is a fundamental
building block of the ‘4th industrial revolution’ that has the
potential to transform the way in which production and consumption are
connected. This talk explores how this is happening using examples
from medical prosthetics, aerospace, disaster relief, and education.
