Seems like a cool guy, nice comparison saying that being a National Geographic photographer is as hard as being selected for the abs. I love ng, the photography is pretty incredible. -

By M. Alex Johnson, Staff Writer, NBC News<br><br>
A Russian man faces up to two years in prison for stealing an entire road, the Russian Interior Ministry said this week.<br><br>
The man, a 40-year-old resident of Syktyvkar, the capital of Komi Republic in the Northwestern Federal District, admitted having stolen 82 reinforced concrete slabs that make up the roughly 1-mile road linking the village of Parcheg with the Vychegda River, the Russian news agency RIA Novosti reported Thursday.<br><br>
Police uncovered the highway robbery when they pulled over a convoy of three heavy trucks carrying the slabs, which they said had been removed with a manipulator, an industrial machine that combines a bulldozer and a forklift.<br><br>
The Interior Ministry valued the slabs at 200,000 rubles, or about $6,095.<br><br>
While it's unusual for an entire road to vanish, Russia's recent history is filled with thefts of other infrastructure, especially bridges, which are valued for their metal.<br><br>
Most recently, a bridge over the Nozma River in the village of Frolovo, northeast of Vologda, was stolen in June — with a trail of tractor tracks leading to the culprit's home, the Interior Ministry reported.<br><br>
The man, who authorities said painstakingly dismantled the bridge with a welding torch, could also face up to two years in prison.</blockquote> -
