Leno gas station prank turns Will Sims and Monifa Sims into sensation

http://now.msn.com/leno-gas-station-prank-turns-will-sims-and-monifa-sims-into-sensation We’ve all gotten used to those ubiquitous pump-topping TV screens that scream inane chatter at us while we wait for our hilariously overpriced gas to top up. But what if one of them started talking directly at you? Such is the nature of this "Tonight Show" prank, in which a talking head on a gas pump screen charmingly bantered with Will Sims.

I’m not sure i’m 100% with this one. I get the message and agree with that part – you can create anywhere, but it’s a bit damming to say if you’ve freed time to concentrate on your passion you’ll smash beers all day. My animation has got to a point where i have no choice to put off uni for a year – mid course – to be able to focus on it. http://zenpencils.com/comic/97-charles-bukowski-air-and-light-and-time-and-space/

I eat a lot of salsa. A LOT. I am rather notorious for this, in fact. My friend’s boyfriend once innocently asked if I had anything he could snack on — maybe some chips and salsa? http://oneparticularkitchen.com/2009/05/19/salsa/

Latest Drink Recipe Brandy Old Fashioned In my opinion, one of the greatest triumphs of the cocktail renaissance is the rediscovery of the classic Old Fashioned . I’ve often spoken of how at some point after the repeal of Prohibition, the Old Fashioned became lost and possibly confused with a long-forgotten drink called a Smash (basically a tarted-up Mint Julep covered in fruit), a mere husk of its former, glorious self. For decades, bartenders just like me served a limp, weak concoction consisting of a half-muddled sugar cube, a mashed-up neon red cherry and orange, a splash of whiskey, and some soda water drowning the results.

The Leap Will Change The Way You Interact With Your Computer

The Leap is a small iPod sized motion sensor that allows you to interact with your computer in an entirely new way. Forget your mouse and keyboard , with the Leap you will be able to control your computer in three dimensions with natural hand and finger movements. Using proprietary technology, the Leap Motion sensor can distinguish your individual fingers and track your movements down to a 1/100th of a millimeter. Not only that but the Leap is more accurate than a mouse, as reliable as a keyboard and more sensitive than a touchscreen . Leap Motion creators explain their inspiration for its design, “The original inspiration behind Leap came from our frustration with 3D modeling— something that took 10 seconds in real life would take 30 minutes with a computer.
What do you use for photography? I mainly use a Canon 5D Mk II with a 24-70mm f/2.8L lens which almost never leaves the camera. I also have a 40mm f/2.8 pancake lens on days when my back and shoulders hurt (from shooting long hours) and when I simply prefer to bring something lighter. On some days, I still use my 5-year-old 350D, mostly for my 10-22mm which can’t fit on a full frame. (My 10-22 is currently with my friend Tracy who needs it more than I do) Lighting-wise, I have pink AlienBees, a square Falcon Eyes softbox, and an AlienBees beauty dish. I got my ABs from the US!
