The longer the tripod...I would expect the more flex which will result in more shaky. So shorter tripod pole or thicker?

Anyone who would like to voice their support in my quest may want to leave a comment on this Facebook page.

I don't believe that this will be put up for a vote, but I suppose a little love from the crowd couldn't hurt...

Thanks!

Bends sounds nice.

Hey Ben and Nikki - Bend sounds perfect for you two - I wish I were there. The town we live in sounds a little like Hillsboro. But, that's all we could afford near these parts. At least it is Vermont.
Anyway, good luck with settling in there.

That's so cool! Sucks to be broke, but with surroundings like that, everything will work itself out.

Good luck and keep on truckin'!

I hear your pain! I can't imagine the struggle it must be to do all that you do... I will say that the fact that you are questioning and struggling through each day proves to me that you are a good parent! Looking forward to seeing you guys soon!

Hey Bro, when we were looking for apartments in Morgantown, we answered a listing on Craigslist for a 2 br house. The guy emailed me back saying he was working in Africa for the next few years and in order for him to mail us the keys, we would have to wire him $1,000. Now that isn't even trying to disguise a scam!

I hope someone buys your desktop...I can't imagine giving up

Yeah, who buys a huge, heavy desktop computer and has it shipped from the States to Africa, when little laptops cost less than $500. And re: the "ancient university in west Africa," could Mr./Ms. Handsome be a little bit more specific please, or is that what s/he wants you to write on the shipping label?
My dad once shipped my imac from Vancouver to Japan, and it cost way more than

Amazing stuff, Ben - definitely envy you.

Dear Mr McLeod,

I came across your interesting photo entitled, 'Intersection of Church and state'. I'm a sociologist based in Singapore co-editing a book on Christianity and the State in Asia (Routledge, forthcoming), and am writing to ask if you could kindly give us the permission to use your work as the cover photo of the book?

best regards,

I would think the key question would be 'what are they going to spend the money on?'. Will the fees go to fund construction and maintenance of bike lanes and parkways? Or is it offsetting the drop in revenue from gas sales with more people driving fuel efficient cars or choosing different transit all together.

I found a similar story to
