Remembering Steve Jobs

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, October 5th, 2011 at 6:15 pm

‎”Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.”
-Steve Jobs

That Lady Shaved Her Beard On Christmas

Posted by Zach Capp on Monday, December 20th, 2010 at 4:48 pm

I’ve never shared my own work on PH before, but I thought this would be fitting during the holiday season. This video is inspired by an actual 97 year old bearded woman I met in Minnesota a few weeks ago, who hasn’t shaved in 40 years. She says the beard is God’s gift to her. Also, if you like the music it’s done by a band in Vegas called NK97.

Meet Jaimie Mantzel. He lives in the woods and is building a giant robot. Seriously.

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, November 16th, 2010 at 9:34 am

Jamie Mantzel is my new favorite person on the Internet. He is trying to build a gigantic walking robot, and he is documenting it on YouTube. He lives in the middle of nowhere and has no electricity, and tends to get distracted. Will he be able to build this robot? Watch his videos to find out!

Here’s a more recent video:

Jaimie’s profile from his YouTube Channel:

I’m Jaimie… Mantzel. I like to do a lot of things. I’m kinda like…. hmmm… who am I like…. Oh, I’m like a cross between MacGuyver (ya, I like to build stuff), and that guy in fight club (not because I fight, because I’m reclusive, resist the system, and live life my own way). Wait, no no. I’m more like a cross between Stewy from family guy, and… uhhh… well, people say “run, forest, run” to me a lot. That might just be because I run a lot, though. OK, I don’t know who I’m like. I’m a super-human space alien monster with a brain the size of a planet. Now stop pressuring me!!!!

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, October 13th, 2010 at 8:21 am

SInce last night, every hour, another Chilean Miner is being rescued from over 2000 feet underground — an inspirational feat of human persistence and ingenuity. Currently there are 15 miners of 33 who have been rescued. Here’s a video of Rescate de Florencio Ávalos, the first rescued miner, emerging on the surface last night. You can watch the rest of the rescue live in several places around the Internet, and I’d recommend that you check it out.
