	<p>It’s a skillful act, don’t miss it. This is what staffing means in management – ‘Right person for the right job’. There are 20 tricky bricks up there, what a brick-stacker! This is one hell of a skillful job, never seen a skill like that. Hope we can learn something out of it!

Let’s keep a balanced approach. Never mind the price ($200,000), cuz the majority of us can’t afford a pool table for a price like that. If not possess, we can at least take pride that technology has given us a platform where we can sit and enjoy the fruits of its advancements. Imagine, you’re face to face with the coolest pool table that’s way beyond your reach. Dubbed the “Obscura CueLight,” it is currently set up at the Esquire Ultimate Bachelor Pad. The price is a factor for its uniqueness, but it isn’t just another example of the tasteless extravagance for the rich. In the sense, that it has sensors and motion detectors with an overhead projector that can be configured to create hallucinating effects like ripples as the ball rolls to knock that corner pocket. Drag-back, follow, cannon, set out but only if you are not distracted with this mesmerizing pool-witchcraft. Check out the video and images after the jump:<br />

Combining Legos with the sublime futurism of Star Wars for a game of chess, Hollywood’s Lego fan Brandon Griffith has got us a game of chess in a way too different, even more vivid than the other Star Wars pieces we seen gracing the chess boards previously. The New Hope Lego Chess weighs a whopping 25lbs and for peculiarity has those figures from the Galactic Empire clubbed in couples unlike the single standing pieces that we’ve seen all the way to our youth and till today for that matter. We’ve can&#8217;t guess what figures have been combined for what piece, but from what we read over from our friends at <a href="http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2009/09/lego_star_wars_chess_set.html">Makezine</a> -  &#8220;<em>The king shows Luke and Leia together, while the queen has Han and Chewie. Some of the pieces are tiny vignettes&#8211;take the king&#8217;s bishop, which shows Ben Kenobi turning off the Death Star&#8217;s tractor beam</em>.&#8221; Griffith&#8217;s <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/brandongriffith/sets/72157622043546373/">Fickr set</a>.

	<p>In order to sustain, brands have to keep up with the rapid technological advancements of today. Given the present day scenario, with portability clause on the rise, brands have to focus on making small things smaller. As the saying goes, all good things come in small packages, and Thanko shows us the wonders of miniaturization. What comes forth as some sort of a Bluetooth headset is actually a miniature MP3 player. Dubbed the “Micro Sports MP3 Player,” it is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS. The 2GB and 4GB models will cost you about $55 and $76, respectively. </p>

	<p>Artist: Tobi Leingruber </p>
	<p>Another surprise-laden day provokes my thoughts to ramble in search for that perfect junction where thought process leads to words, with justice being the core. That flight of imagination where words are hard to come by is understandably the route to that silent junction where creativity never dies. So, when a keyboard with words can’t express the power of a pen, run it on wheels because even silence speaks in the creative den. </p>
