Conscious Quote

“Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact
that most people enter a relationship in order to get something:
they’re trying to find someone who’s going to make them feel good. In
reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your
relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you
go to take.”
-Anthony Robbins

Conscious Quote

“Look at the word responsibility—“response ability”—the ability to choose your response. Highly proactive people recognize that responsibility. They do not blame circumstances, conditions, or conditioning for their behavior. Their behavior is a product of their
own conscious choice, based on values, rather than a product of their conditions, based on feeling.”
-Stephen R. Covey

So let’s take a moment to have our minds blown by the freaky, gorgeous starfish.  (photo: Minette Layne)

Audi’s Crosslane Coupe Plug-in Hybrid

Here’s the latest concept by Audi, a 2-door plug-in hybrid that claims to burn only 1.1 liters per 100 km (214 mpg US) with CO2 emissions of 26 grams per km (41.8 grams per mile), though as usual with plug-in hybrids, the MPG numbers don’t mean much since it all depends what percentage of the trip is done in electric-only mode. (photo: Audi)
