- 18:11Why we need to talk about sexual desires | Julie Harris | TEDxMünsterIn her TEDxMünster talk, Julie speaks openly and frankly about her own finite 20-year marriage and subsequent emotional journey.

- 17:33How the US can build better cyber security | Kathleen Kennedy Townsend | TEDxPacific AvenueDrawing from her unique perspective as RFK's eldest child and President JFK's niece, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend parallels the dangers she witnessed firsthand—Senate Rackets Committee hearings, Mob threats, and the Cuban Missile Crisis—with today's critical software vulnerabilities.Our enemies can disable power grids, telecommunications, banking, hospitals, water systems, and breach military secrets through unsafe software. Yet unlike every other consumer product, software lacks safety requirements. We blame victims, forcing them to buy extra security while leaving Americans vulnerable to hackers, scammers, and foreign adversaries.With minimal regulation and weak consumer protections, our digital infrastructure remains dangerously exposed.
