At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

“If you, Lord, [our God] should keep account of sins, who, O Lord, could hold up his head? But in you is forgiveness, and therefore you are revered.” - (Psalm 130: 3-4) -
Craig, you don't know me. I knew all Birli's except. Hadn't met Judy the oldest. I was working with Jack and Jeff at AmericanOleanTile. The day you shot Jeff. All the supervisors were asking me if I saw jeff that day. They asked Jack too. We Hadn't seen him. Was a no call no show. Then about an hour later Jack got paged and a look on his face I can't forget. Ran out of work. A knew of you. I knew you and Jeff were friends. was heart broken for you both. I knew what it would do to the family. I also knew your life as you knew it was changed for ever. The woman you speak of has been a life long friend of mine. I want to say I have listened to your speech a few times. It is the most honest heart felt speech I have ever heard. It is so well spoken. I am sure Jeff has forgiven you. God bless. Continue to give your speeches. You may save some others from from your heat of the moment irreversible mistake. God bless.
