I live in NYC. I work for Vimeo. I like to cook. My wife likes sprinkles. I have a new(ish) daughter. Her name is Chloe. We don't know if she likes sprinkles yet.

The incident points “to some truths about guns in America: they escalate situations, whether workplace disputes or an angry man lashing out; they can be highly indiscriminate in the damage they do; and they are everywhere. We need to talk more about why.” Click-through to read Amy Davidson on guns and the shooting at the Empire State Building: http://nyr.kr/RJB9zb

Mindy Meyer: “I want to ultimately maybe one day run in the presidential elections.”
Web site or not, she doesn’t seem like she’s completely terrible at this. Note the way that she talkes to potential constituents.
“I was gonna make a u-turn but you can’t film it because senators can’t do illegal stuff.”
I kinda hope she wins.

I just had to retake this shot from three weeks ago. I was losing sleep over it. The first time, I happened across the spot accidentally and was unprepared, so the original was handheld at 50mm & f/1.2 @ 3200 ISO (with about 50% cropped out). This time, on a tripod at 105mm & f/2.8 @ 100 ISO (and slightly earlier in the evening). Check it out at full resolution and see if you can spot the SR-71 Blackbird.
You really want to click through; this is amazing.
This sarcasm, up to the minute type of advertising rocks. I would contact Manhattan Mini Storage.
If I EVER need to store anything they have my business.
