Marr (Scottish Gaelic: Màrr) is one of six committee areas in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It has a population of 34,038 (2001 Census). Someone from Marr is called a Màrnach in Scottish Gaelic.
To the west, the mountain environment of the Cairngorms National Park sustains a well-developed tourist industry based on heritage and outdoor pursuits. Forestry and livestock farming are key industries, particularly in remoter areas. Part of the area has qualified for EU financial assistance. To the east, Marr has experienced population growth due to its strong commuter links with the city of Aberdeen.
The committee area consists of three wards of Aberdeenshire council:
Between them the three wards elect 10 councillors to the sixty-eight member council.
Marr is named after Mar, one of the historic districts of Scotland, extending from north of the Don southward to the Mounth. Like other such districts, it was under the rule of a mormaer in the Middle Ages. In the 12th century an earl (the Earl of Mar) took his place, but no definite succession of earls appears till the 13th century, nor is any connection established between them and the mormaers.
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a global set of conferences run by the private non-profit Sapling Foundation, under the slogan "Ideas Worth Spreading". The emphasis is on the entertainment aspect. TED was founded in 1984 as a one-off event; the annual conference series began in 1990. TED's early emphasis was technology and design, consistent with its Silicon Valley origins, but it has since broadened its focus to include talks on many scientific, cultural, and academic topics.
The main TED conference is held annually in Vancouver, Canada, and its companion TEDActive is held in Whistler, British Columbia. Prior to 2014, the two conferences were held in Long Beach and Palm Springs, California, respectively. TED events are also held throughout North America and in Europe and Asia, offering live streaming of the talks. They address a wide range of topics within the research and practice of science and culture, often through storytelling. The speakers are given a maximum of 18 minutes to present their ideas in the most innovative and engaging ways they can. Past speakers include Bill Clinton, Jane Goodall, Al Gore, Gordon Brown, Billy Graham, Richard Dawkins, Richard Stallman, Bill Gates, Bono, Mike Rowe, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and many Nobel Prize winners. TED's current curator is the British former computer journalist and magazine publisher Chris Anderson.

Similarly, memorizing anything can be difficult when you use the wrong part of your brain.

Most people don't ever stop to think about their experience of gender, and this leads to a lack of understanding for others, and a limited worldview. In addition, if you never explore your identity as it pertains to gender, you might never be able to make informed choices about your body and your life, and sticking with the status quo when it comes to gender expression harms many people. Ashley Wylde is a queer and genderqueer writer, activist, and Colorado State University student. Her passion derives from exploring the complex ideas of gender, sex, and sexuality through creative expression. Ashley strives to make conversation about these difficult subjects as accessible and digestible as possible. She regularly engages topics of identity and subjectivity on her YouTube channel, encour...

Una razón me parte el corazón
y me está rompiendo el alma
una duda de amor.
Quiero saber
que te ocurre desde ayer
cuando viste a aquel amigo
el color de tu cara cambió
y una lagrima como una espina
a mi me clavó.
Tú me has hecho tal como soy
y hasta el día de hoy creo en tí
tú con tu manera de ser
me has enseñado a querer así.
Tu mi eterna inspiración
si me dejaras podría morir
qué quieres que haga y lo haré
no concibo la vida sin ti.
Cariño mio
en la puerta hay un claver
y un sobre a tu nombre
con amor, dice el papel
estoy que me muero de los celos
de rabia, voy a enloquecer
y aún así, no te quiero perder.
Tú me has hecho tal como soy
y hasta el día de hoy creo en ti
tú con tu manera de ser
me has enseñado a querer así.
Tú mi eterna inspiración
si me dejaras podría morir
qué quieres que haga y lo haré
no concibo la vida sin ti. (bis)
