So, she did something that's been done before on many things, but she did a whole wall, yet she didn't take the opportunity to spell out a story or poetry? Did she even make the very last, bottom right key "END"?

They buy the "air rights" from surrounding lots and, up until recently, were allowed to combine those air rights to build higher on one area, provided that the lots they took them from are not vertically developed. This is why my condo has a single tower surrounded by lots of open air parking spaces. Its now illegal…

I wonder how much lifestyle has an effect on the effectiveness? If you could clone this guy and have one keep running marathons, one lead a regular (reasonably healthy) life and a third be a complete couch potato - all else being equal - would there be any difference?

I once almost got a Broken Spectre when I was attempting to shoot for Ringed Glory.

Wow, way to take my comment the wrong way. Elitist, no. Not sugar coating the honest truth, yes. I call it as I see / feel it.

It's a great idea, but I agree with johnmweir; expensive phone in a semi-rugged case, VS a Go-Pro in a very rugged case? I'd stump up for the GoPro.

Or you could just learn the penguin walk or skate for those occasions where you are dumb enough to:

Imagine if Facebook handed over their gear for a weekend and they repurposed all those Farmville accounts for something useful. We'd probably find meaning of life before Sunday breakfast..

Go one better than this. Eliminate the camera from the pictures by using at least one piece of security mirror glass. The one-way stuff that is mirrored on one side but can be seen through from the other.

I agree. If it takes a double-take, or even momentary closer inspection to confirm fake or real, check it to avoid potential issues. All it takes ia a jittery, myopic passenger to spot it and shout GUN!

To the tune of the Major General's Song...

I play a lot on the subway to work, this model is useless for me.

With a muzzle velocity of over 300 ft per second, getting just the pepper discharge in a protesters eyes is not a concern. Not hitting them in the eye and blinding them is.

Is that seriously how her butt looks? Are you sure this isn't a hoax? I'd check The Onion but I'm at work. (The story came up on my RSS and I HAD to look for a few mins).

I remember the good old days when Flash was hailed as THE graphics engine for the internet. Tweening! Vectors! Onion skin animation tools. Woo!

The clockwork detailing is in-effing-sane. Mental. Awesome.

But how can she be blocking me if she doesn't know I'm coming?

Or, buy a set Etymotic hf3 Customs for about $150. Inside the box, you'll find a bunch of rubbish one-size-fits-most earbuds, which you may discard. Also in the box, you'll find a voucher redeemable from ACS. For an extra $70, these guys will create custom ear moulds..

If the thief targets a drunk on a crowded train car, they could pickpocket a single item easily without being seen.
