Would You Catch These Realistic PokéBalls? Could You? Nowadays they have Poke'balls for everything. Bug Ball, Quick Ball, Dusk Ball, Heal Ball, Net Ball, Premiere Ball, Warm Summer Day with 83 Degree Humidity and Chance of Slight Rain Ball, etc etc. Really? ಠ_ಠ Ugh, I guess it works but I feel that's a bit over-saturated with different types of balls. Most of them, aside from the obviously basics, are nearly useless. But yeah, most the pokeballs in the newer games are useless. Either way, I don't think these renders were supposed to be of specific balls. Pokeballs are also supposed to create an environment in them that is suitable to the Pokemon.

Thing in a Jar Thing in a Jar 7 inches by 4 inches, mason jar Pictured above is the Thing in a Jar that's usually sitting in my office at work. The coolest thing about the Thing is that everyone responds to seeing it by asking questions. The Thing in a Jar is made out of Sculpey, acryllic paint and rubber cement. This is the third Thing in a Jar I've made. Here's a conceptual sketch I made of this Thing before I sculpted it. 1.5 by 2.5 inches, ballpoint pen Usually when I make a Thing in a Jar, I try to keep the shape ambiguous enough so that the viewer cannot really pin down exactly what they're looking at. The glass jar acts as a physical barrier, preventing the viewer from directly accessing its contents. I think this is much cooler than, for example, a painting, which basically has this big implicit sign hanging off of it that says, "I am just a painting of an object, not the object itself. Viewers of The Thing in a Jar do not have this preconception. Update OK here's what you do. That's it!
Leadership Lessons from the Saddle - Nancy Koehn - HBS Faculty by Nancy Koehn | 9:30 AM May 3, 2011 Since I was a little girl, I have been afraid of horses. They always seemed so big and so powerful, especially when I saw them galloping and heard the pounding thunder of their hooves on the ground. And so it was a real challenge coming to terms with that fear when I began riding horses and competing in the show jumping ring some years ago. In the process, though, I realized that many of the lessons I learned on a horse have strong relevance and application for leading and motivating a team in pursuit of a worthy mission. As in any sport, riding is about more than just the technical, physical aspects; it absorbs you emotionally and intellectually. Be aware of the frame you are in: emotional awareness and confidence are critical. Over the course of my six years in the saddle, I have learned that when you set specific goals and stick to them — whether they are geared toward riding or running a company — you learn a lot about how to lead and motivate.
