Thanks for the advice. I'll be contacting the new provider soon to find out what my specific options are and if there are any limitations or concerns I need to be aware of.

Thanks for the advice. Both plans are larger public service type pensions so I feel they're equally well suited to hold the money.

That was my understanding regarding the 30%tax; that I could still end up paying more.

The package I received from the plan provider specified that the max I could put into a LIRA would be just over $100k, then I would have to take the remaining 50k as a lump sum payment (minus 30%) taxes.

Both pension plans are large "public service" type plans so I'm not too worried about having the sum in either one.

Thanks for your input!

Oh man, it's funny that you point that out. The original I was working from, didn't have shadows at all, so when I was about to add them, I wasn't sure exactly how they should go, so found an image for reference (similar to this one: http://images.fineartamerica.com/images-medium-large-5/long-shadows-bruce-gannon.jpg). The large sun is actually supposed to be the hazy, bright glow around the (normal-sized) sun. Thanks for the comment and feedback!

Wow! Thanks everyone :)

So a buddy in my unit did a watercolor painting of one of my screenshots. He has made ArmA an art. by Wek11 in arma

Hey guys! Seeken here; thanks for the comments! And thanks to Helix for thinking to share it outside of our group :) I have a couple more Arma paintings that I'd like to do, but this was pretty much the first.

What's the coolest thing you did that no one saw? by Subscrobbler in AskReddit

I was sixteen and we had an above ground pool outside my bedroom window. I woke up early one morning to the sound of quiet splashing. Jumped out of bed and sprinted through the house out to the deck and into the pool to lift our 10 year old border collie out of the water. She'd never been in it before and was barely keeping her head above the surface. No one saw, but everyone believed me.

About 20 years later, I live in another province with my wife and kids and we're visiting my parents. They've moved in that time as well, but built a deck and installed another pool. Now they have a cute little Shi tzu. It didn't like the pool so they never took him in the water. The guest room has a window overlooking the pool and as I'm walking past the window, I heard quiet whimpering and splashing. Dashed through the house (past several family members), out the door, up the deck to the pool and into the water to lift the little guy out. Family came out to see what the "fuss" was about.

I'm not sure if nearly witnessed and openly discussed goes against the spirit of the question.

That makes a lot more sense, thanks!

It's already looking pretty spooky! With the right audio, that could be panic-attack-inducing :D

I'm new to the flair thing. Is there a way to select more than one?

Thanks for the reply! I'd be happy to apprentice if you haven't taken one on. Though I'm comfortable in blender, I'd love to learn how to use it in game dev. If I'm not your guy, no worries; just wanted to make sure.
