We all know that major corporations place all kinds of stuff in movies and TV shows. But this one takes the cake.

Will.I.Am's new "One More Chance" video looks like it was completely directed by RIM the maker of BlackBeryy phones ;-)

This is an amazing acrobatics feat. The practice is called "Russian-Bar Acrobatics), I think because it was originated in Russia.

This is how many of us feel these days ;-(

This is a terrific video from This American Life's Ira Glass on having the work ethics to get better at the creative work — even when you know what you’re making isn’t as good as you think it should be.

He believes you should continue doing more and more work, and perfecting your craft, even though your current work may suck ;-)

A few days ago I posted 2008 Most Fuel Efficient Cars. And here is another way of looking at the numbers:

.
Now lets look at it this way; on average we may drive 10,000 miles per year (50% City & 50% Highway), and let's just average out gas at $4/gallon (Current in my city it is $4.69). So the yearly numbers become:
.

Toyota Prius Hybrid / City: 48 mpg / Highway: 45 mpg
Yearly Fuel Cost: $860

Typical Small Car / City: 30 mpg / Highway: 35 mpg
Yearly Fuel Cost: $1,238

Typical Large Car / City: 20 mpg / Highway: 30 mpg
Yearly Fuel Cost: $1,666

Typical Mini-Van / City: 18 mpg / Highway: 25 mpg
Yearly Fuel Cost: $1,911

Typical Large SUV / City: 12 mpg / Highway: 20 mpg
Yearly Fuel Cost: $2,666

With these simple parameters; if you switch from a large SUV to a Toyota Prius, and even if you drive a modest 10,000 miles per year, you'll save about $1,800 per year.

Have you ever wondered what is the true meaning of Procrastination? Well, here it is ;-)
