I never understood why the screen doesn't just crop off the sides of the video (from the view of the shooter) and still record in 16:9 when held in portrait.

That's the problem with any code you don't maintain yourself. Case and point: Google Reader.

Having your vent on even when your food is not smoking helps to reduce the heat, humidity, and oil vapor in the air.

Do any of you know if you can get past student loans waived if employed by a uni?

I have a base model car, so I was thinking I'd do some wiring like this and put the switch in the location where my car would have switches if it had any add-ons.

The person cutting onions and shallots in this video has dangerous knife skills, and cutting across the grain of the bulb is going to result in the bulb braking apart during the cooking process.

I'm looking for a camera strap that has easy-to-remove clasps of some kind, and preferably that can be adjusted to sit right above my hip when slung over one shoulder and under the other.

If a tree falls in the woods, and no one is around to hear it, it just vibrates the air. Sound requires a brain. :P

True; I don't remember it being so bad in high-school, and definitely not in college. But, that might be hindsight bias, and I did tend to be the person who would provide an answer when the teacher would not move forward with the lesson until they got one.

Yeah, this made teaching in China rather difficult. On the whole, my students were afraid to make mistakes, as they were afraid to stand out. Hell, they we afraid to be right most of the time, too. The idea of being part of the whole and blending in runs very deep in Chinese culture.

If you lead with "I have trouble pronouncing this word:" then people are more likely to be helpful than condescending.

My mall needs a bar :( also, some shops I care about.

I don't want a frosty mug either, but a reputable bar should have a clean freezer for glassware only. Definitely don't want frosty mugs from my food-crammed freezer at home.

I imagine it's like planting an apple seed. You aren't going to get a granny smith tree, your going to get a crabapple (at least that what we call the bitter, wild apples). I don't know much about the business, but if strains have names, then the stuff one would smoke are probably clones. Just like the apples you buy…

Mine's green. But, wee! Financial advice that I already use before I read about it!

I don't seem to address myself with pronouns. It's more just simple commands like "next time do x" rather than "next time I should/you should/Chris should do x"

To clarify, I am not a vegan, I just recognize the work it takes to have a balanced diet no matter what you consume. I do agree, however, that much of the confusion surrounding nutrition comes from a "one-size-fits-all" mindset. There are so many individual factors from genetics to lifestyle to environment that…

People who don't understand a vegan diet don't understand how to create a diet. Healthy vegetarians/vegans plan their nutrients, because you do have to make sure you get a wide range of fruits, veggies, nuts, legumes, etc.

Once again, science proves that moderation is the key.
