    "YEKATERINBURG/CHELYABINSK, Russia (Reuters) - About 400 people were injured when a meteorite shot across the sky in central Russia on Friday sending fireballs crashing to Earth, smashing windows and setting off car alarms.

    Residents on their way to work in Chelyabinsk heard what sounded like an explosion, saw a bright light and then felt a shockwave, according to a Reuters correspondent in the industrial city 1,500 km (950 miles) east of Moscow.

    The meteorite raced across the horizon, leaving a long white trail in its wake which could be seen as far as 200 km (125 miles) away in Yekaterinburg. Car alarms went off, windows shattered and mobile phones worked only intermittently."

    And the Russians always seem to have dash cams rolling so there are several videos of it as well. For some reason the video won't embed so there's the link.

    There are a lot more videos here.

    There is also an asteroid that's supposed to come within about 17,000 miles of Earth.

  2. A good job in my opinion puts food on the table, roof over your head and lets you have stuff that we can take for granted. I don't make great money like others on here but I know how to manage it and live within my means and I think I'm doing pretty damn well compared to my friends or people I use to know. I tried going to college for a year but it just wasn't for me and I didn't know what I'd even get a degree in. Thankfully my employer is allowing me to work my way up to a better position so even though I didn't get a degree I can get into a position where one may be needed but they'll allow me to bypass that with experience and I'm still young so who knows what else could change. For being in my young 20's I'm happy with everything I've done thus far such as being engaged, looking into a second house, having two newer cars and a bike, plus other fun ammenities.

    And kudos to those busting their ass out there to do what they can.
