I'm only going to show you once.

I am showing my teeth.

How many fingers am I holding up?

I am displaying a short view about the tour of my life.

And if it's well made I show it, if it's badly made I show it.

And I often show this to senior management.

Fashion now, I'm sort of anti fashion because I don't show the surface, I show what's within.

And I'm presenting it here at TED. Why?

And I submit them, my intuitions, my hypothesis, my first ideas.

MT But today, I am performing for a different kind of audience.

So you can see here on the vertical axis, I haven't shown it all the way down to zero, there are lots of other options, but here I'm just showing you the prediction, so I've narrowed the scale.

'Look, you know, even in this body I'm showing you the obvious'

Now, the slide show. I update the slide show every time I give it.

In the United States, the rate at which prostitutes are killed in the workplace is 51 times that of the next most dangerous occupation for women, working in a liquor store.

And I show things for really what they are, what they're made of.

Other studies show that nine out of ten prostitutes urgently want to escape the job.

That's what I try and show in my stand up. There's good people everywhere.

And I throw this slide in this is me, actually, two months ago and I throw this slide in because here is my favorite animal, chambered nautilus.

What we are showing here is on this axis here, I'm showing percent of infected adults.

I add new images because I learn more about it every time I give it.

But if I show you this picture it's not to tell you how happy we were.

Or there was another cartoon I didn't show because actually I thought maybe people would be offended.

I will spread the cards and you'll say stop, when I point to them, right. Point, say stop.

I almost never show them off because of the issue of the idea of failure.

By the way, here is the remarkably interesting, unique LJ of an Ingush spetsnazovets http hardingush.livejournal.com I devoured it in one sitting.

When I do a trick at a party that person will immediately pull their friend over and ask me to do it again.

And I only show it because it seemed like it got all this relevancy all of a sudden, and it was done right after 9 11.

I travel beyond the surface and show something for what it's worth, for what it's really made of, how it really works.

I'm giving a short slide show this morning that I'm giving for the very first time, so well it's I don't want or need to raise the bar, I'm actually trying to lower the bar.

If on this account, which is largely handled as a working tool, I show my naked body and if you, dear reader, don't like it, just turn the page ...

The reason I'm showing you this is I'm hoping that the scene that I'm going to show you will look familiar and sound familiar, now that you've listened to some girls' voices.

In other words, if we measured speed as a function of distance this is the only time I'm going to show a graph, OK we would expect that it goes down as the distance increases from the center of the galaxy.

Only a couple of people read it. I don't write this for this audience I'm showing it now, but I would go insane if this was really public.

Normal controls show that was the magic I showed you now I'm showing it to you in graphical form The one I own is better than I thought. The one I didn't own, the one I left behind, is not as good as I thought.

It's three times hotter than Mercury, which is right next to the Sun. Now, briefly, here's an image you've seen, as one of the only old images, but I show it because I want to briefly give you CSI Climate.

MT Well, as a matter of fact, it was on my sixth birthday that I received my first deck of cards, and ever since that day, I have traveled around the world performing magic for boys and girls, men and women, husbands and wives, even kings and queens.

The reason I show this not to put a downer on everything but I just want to use it to key off my philosophy of life in general, which is that we all have two goals.
