The California FasTrak has a small chime built in; it beeps whenever it gets scanned.

Tonic water? Ginger beer?

This match will determine once and for all which nation is the greatest on earth: Mexico or Portugal!

I'm enjoying these as well, thanks.

Or maybe you keep your fridge nice and clean or maybe clarified butter doesn't pick up flavors.

Butter tends to suck up flavors around it; I'd guess that the airtight container is so your clarified butter doesn't pick up volatile flavor compounds from the fridge as much as it's for preventing oxidation of the fat.

That's probably better but there's lots of ways to peel garlic easily.

Some people claim that the garlic press makes the garlic taste different because you're smushing it instead of finely chopping it.

You're looking for a six log reduction of e. coli bacteria which happens when the food (be it meat, cheese, a rock, beans, little bits of skin and dirt) hits an internal temperature of 160F as outlined by the FDA.

Yeah, I don't want to wait in line like a schlub, I want to just click a button and have it arrive at my door next Friday. Sigh.

Totally agree that it stops browning; just explaining the other reasons jarred garlic is weird. (Botulism is scary stuff.)

The center of ground beef needs to be cooked until you believe it's e-coli free whether or not the cheese is there, so I don't think this is a big concern.

You want the cheese to melt, so you want to cook the burger low and slow until that happens. Once the cheese is melted turn the heat up real hot to brown the outside.

The citric acid is in there to make the mixture acidic. Since garlic grows in the ground and is stored in an anaerobic mixture (oil) it needs to be fairly acidic to protect you from botulism unless it's pressure canned.

Lost in the price complaining: if $100 doesn't matter to you then congratulations you're not the 5C's target market.

I laughed.

Great video from Venturebeat, keep turning the phone over so we can all see the same external case as the iPhone 5.

That's awesome, I remember working at Gamestop the day after Halo 2 came out. We had no copies of Halo 2 and we got to spend the entire day telling irate customers we were sold out.

If it makes you feel better I haven't had many app problems on the beta. Youtube seems funky but the website still works, so no big deal.
