Las Vegas – Steven McCann is the Man


[YouTubular]

This is a complete Las Vegas recap… all wrapped into one video.

If you watch the triple whip hit / fall / crash Steven McCann took on the run previous to this — it will blow your mind that he had the balls to get back up and compete for the win.

If you Brad Jay breakdown the scenario of the BMX Vert Finals you would understand that if Stevie McCann pulls of this win he would also win the overall Dew Cup… which was lost by just two (2) points to the unstoppable 7 Dew Cup BMX Vert champion Jamie Bestwick.

This should make for a very interesting 2012 season.

Hugh MacLeod — Become

“I talk a lot about the whole “human potential” thing and this cartoon bears the same message at heart.

From the moment we’re born we adopt thought and behavior patterns that obscure our view of who we are and what we want with our life. Those thoughts and behaviors tend to shape us personally and professionally, and it can in time hinder the creative process.

The idea behind this cartoon was to create something that encourages us to step out and meet ourselves head-on—to be responsible for who we are.

Then the question arises—who am I?

I think it’s a good idea to start thinking about this early in life, but really it’s never too late to start. With that in mind, it’s probably important to encourage younger generations to reflect on this as well…”

Seth Godin – Fill in the Blank

Subscribe to the good words of Seth Godin

“…but what really blew me away…”

A simple fill in the blank for creating a remarkable service, partnership or experience:

“I was pleased that I got what I paid for, that the food was properly cooked, that they honored their contract, that the roller coaster worked, that there was no trash on the ground and that the staff looked me in the eye. But what really blew me away was _____”

By definition, whatever goes in the blank is an extra, more than you had to do. But what you must do to be considered remarkable. (Remarkable is what we call something we remark on).

Hugh MacLeod — In Memoriam of Steve Jobs

I remember when the first time I saw the TV ad, back when it first came out.

It changed my life.

It was the first commercial I’d ever seen in my life, that actually spoke to me, my true self, and not just to, like pretty much EVERY SINGLE OTHER COMMERCIAL out there, whatever short-term, trivial needs I had going on that day.

It was then I knew that I wasn’t just one of the crazy ones, but that it was also IMPERATIVE to actually be one of the crazy ones. That my life and soul demanded it.

It’s not what Steve Jobs created in his his brief but incandescent life- the computers, iPods, iPhones etc etc- that isn’t the big story.

And what we created with his his products, that isn’t the big story, either.

The big story is what Steve helped us believe about ourselves. By putting his balls on the line, again and again, he made it easier for us to do the same.

And so we did.

Thank you, Steve. You will be missed. Of course you frickin’ will…

Steve Jobs — 1955 – 2011

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

If you would like to share your thoughts, memories, and condolences, please email rememberingsteve@apple.com

I can’t really say how I feel right now… Cheers to Steve Jobs – and thank you for giving me a frame to build my life *around* – It is a sad day. You have already and will seriously be missed :(

[YouTubeUlar] <— 116,373 Overall I would give this video a fail coming from GoPro, I know they can do better. It is a little crazy and definitely helps understand the perspective of Jeb Corliss and his dreams. Feel free to scan to 7:15 and watch from their if you don't have to 10 minutes to consume it all. Ouch. Inspire. Be Crazy. GoPro.
