'monster' nuclear warhead B53 dismantled but WHY?– USATODAY.com

Closing a Cold War chapter, technicians Tuesday dismantled the last of the most powerful U.S. nuclear bombs ever built.

THANK GOD! This thing is 600x stronger than the one that destroyed Hiroshima in 1945. I mean really what were we thinking when we built this thing. That and comically we made 300 of them. 

In the 1960's the Soviets apparently tested a bomb that was 4,000 times greater in terms of yield than the Hioshima bomb.

According to the above site apparently in stock we have weapons that have approx 24x the strength of the Hiroshima Bomb... That makes me feel better.

 

Sleep Helped but starting to DRAG...

Burning the candle at both ends has a myriad of interesting effects. I have learned that cat naps, self-hypnosis, b-12 caffeine and bursts of physical excercise can help. 

However 8 hours of sleep is pretty magical when you have had a few days of a few hours of sleep none of those being more than a 3 hour block. 

I have been able to get away with 4 hours and then 2 hour or less naps here and there but this was quite different. 

Anyway that being said... I am currently looking for the second wind baby. 

 

 

R.I.P. Steve Jobs. Here's to the Crazy One...

The Apple/Jobs model of pushing a project with HIGH CREATIVE and Technology through to the end and into production will ultimately endure. His leadership and vision changed the way we look and use computers, cell phones and tablet computers.

The original Think Different spot with Richard Dreyfuss by TBWA\Chiat\Day. Jennifer Golub who also shared the art director credit with Jessica Schulman and Yvonne Smith.  This take off was found at SteveJobsDay on youtube. Apparently created just a few days before his passing.

As you well know in the creation of any new project or product. Shortcuts are usually taken, especially in manufacturing based products. It's easier to use last years doo hickey because we can make it fit or better yet we have tons of them in storage. 

Jobs/Apple compared itself to the Auto Industry Creative process where often the Cool Concept Car never makes it to production. Jobs/Apples creations not only made it into production but continually improved the COOL factor along the way.

Remember the CUBE apple =).

My first computer was an Atari. My second computer was an Apple Macintosh. I believe that my personal trend of being an early adopter came from buying a Mac and having the experience of having a cool piece of technology that made a difference in productivity.

He showed us how to make money with that model, inspire generations and create items that we interact with everyday.

What jobs did as an entrepreneur creative was simply amazing. He redefined the large scale creative process and showed us that a GREAT IDEA can make it through R & D, past the number crunchers and into production. 

I found the following quote at Wired.com Steve Jobs 1955-2011. 

At a 2005 commencement address at Stanford University, Jobs shared the philosophy that drove him.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life,” Jobs said. “Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

I had to lay down because I just found out a friend of mine had passed away earlier this month, Larry Trouba. A teacher that I worked for that  always made me smile. When I woke up from my nap I saw that Steve Jobs had passed away. So I was doubly inspired to write. 

Here's to the Crazy Ones...Rest In Peace.
