Sunday morning I ended up at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), considered as one of the best design schools in the US. I was in the reception area of their admissions building where they were running an exhibition on Building Design and Architecture. The exhibition consisted of multiple rooms, covering different steps in designing a building.
The room I was standing in was dominated by numerous architectural drawing pasted on the wall, and even some on the ceiling. There was also a large (garbage like) pile of drawing and designs in the floor with disposable coffee cups, empty cigarette packets, a sketch pen without a cap, and a mop. My first guess - obviously this part of the exhibit was not done yet. They must have taken a break for the weekend before they come back and complete it on Monday.
But, there was something meticulous about the room. I was troubled to accept my initial hypothesis about the room being work in progress. There was something logical about the piles of drawings on the floor, the coffee cups, the cigarette packets and the mop!
As I was stepping out, I noticed the words on the floor - "A room for mistakes".
Completely awestruck, I took a couple of more steps backwards, and noticed the words, again on the floor - "Thanks, Janitors"

I like this toilet seat idea blog, but after a lot or research I decided to go with a TOTO washlet. The TOTO washlet is a little more expensive, but it has a fantastically sleek and luxurious look and feel. I purchased my TOTO washlet from Sitting Stone (http://www.sittingstone.com) and there is absolutely no way I could live without it. I am thinking of upgrading all of the toilets in my house to the TOTO Neorest, which is an integrated TOTO toilet, TOTO bidet seat combination. I am really enjoying my TOTO toilet and TOTO bidet seat from Sitting Stone.

Good one dude... Have a Q though. do u think that Managers should allow
emotions to drive their actions or the hot facts in a sheet which should determine them ?
The question is unrelated to the post I guess! So whether emotion vs. data, I think this is a very underlying question plaguing behavioral economists - I dont think i have the answer
