   I've heard a few similar stories, here's one about an engineer who was 'too senior' to lay off when an office closed: They wound up with nearly zero responsibilities. Same as this story, they were relocated to a remote

   Search his name on YouTube and he paints in a few interviews. Seems legit. I think he still needs 10k hours to master the art, but due to natural talent he skipped the first few thousand hours. If he keeps up with this, imagine how good he

    I'm the SO of a professional newborn photographer who generated somewhere in the neighborhood of 20-30TB of RAW photos, backups, LR xmp sidecars, etc in the last year. JPEGs don't even register. High end DSLR RAWs are gigantic!

    My family had similar "between home" experiences. I suspect these sorts of experiences are not terribly uncommon, but I'll share a couple stories. We stayed in a shady motel for 3 months. They hadn't paid the electric

    I gave CAH (and expansion packs) as stocking stuffers for xmas and they were extremely well received. What they say on the tin is true -- you feel like a horrible person when you play the game, which is extremely cathartic. Hell, they eve

    I would guess that they're using a standard bill acceptor that does optical and magnetic tests. They'd have to be really good fake bills.

    As a content producer, I love the idea of syndicated commenting system that actually syncs, but for pretty obvious reasons it doesn't work that way. What would you suggest as a replacement to LiveFyre?

    I quit smoking 1.5 packs a day about 120 days ago, and started out with 36mg nicotine/ml e-liquid, and have cut down to 6mg/ml e-liquid. In another month, I should be off nicotine completely. I use a eGo Twist/iClear16 (w/ iClear30 heads)

    This reminded me of a feature of Esref Armagan, a blind Turkish painter, who was never sighted. Skip to 7 minutes to see him paint a building he's never been to before, with 100% correct perspective. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9ig6p
