Adventures of Bo SuperDog - Episode 3

Here is the 3rd episode in the award winning series 'Adventures of Bo SuperDog'.
Enjoy.

Skiing Video

Here is some long awaited footage from my skiing adventure several weeks ago. The videography leaves something to be desired, and you'll soon find out why.

Meeting Mitt Romney

Yup, that's a real life celebrity. And that's Mitt Romney too.

UofM Commencement Speaker...and a Brief History of Pretty Much Everything

Quick, guess who UofM locked down to speak to their graduates this year? Any guesses? Stumped yet? Oh, just some dude named Obama. No big deal. They had Clinton in '07, and now Obama in '10. Somewhere in the middle of all that prestige, the lowly '08 winter grads were stuck listening to Roger Penske talk Nascar for 20 minutes. I'm pissed.

This is cool though.

New Video

This was filmed sometime in January, I think.



And yes, turtlenecks ARE in style!

David Brooks and the Great Decisions lecture series

Every now and then I like to get out and have an educational experience, to, you know, keep the post-collegiate mind fresh. When I'm really lucky, I have multiple in a single day. (Oof, that sounds like a 'that's what she said' joke.) Anyway...what I'm trying to say is, yesterday I was fortunate to go to not one but two interesting lectures that at first glance seemed unrelated but after some inspection, worked together nicely.

Cool video - robotic exoskeleton allows paras to walk

http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/HealthyLiving/bionic-breakthrough-robotic-suit-helps-paraplegics-walk/story?id=9741496&page=1

This an interesting article with video. An Israeli made robotic suit with a battery pack can help paraplegics stand up from a chair and slowly walk, by sensing when steps are taken and even when stairs need to be climbed. Possibly available in late 2010, this is just another example of some great innovation and research that is happening. Exciting stuff.
