@JP daBADASS - You're probably right. We moved her food to a new room. Her bed is in the living room and we used to keep her food bowl in there too. However, we didn't like having the living smell like dog food so we moved her bowl to the adjacent room. I guess she may have originally gotten comfortable eating in the…

Within the last few months my greyhound has gotten in the habit of eating all of her meals on her bed. We feed her in the adjacent room, but she will take mouthfulls of food from the bowl and carry them to her bed. She drops pieces along the way and leaves tons of crumbs around her bed. It gets messy! How can we…

ISO, along with shutter speed and aperture size, are the components of the Exposure Triangle. Understanding how all three settings work together is the first step in taking your photography to the next level.

Yeah, I was eventually able to get in as well. I think it took about 12 hours for the influx of LH readers to die down.

Yoga! You might be surprised how much of an aerobic workout you can get. You can find workouts that are as gentle or intense as you want. Look online for some Power, Fit, Flow, or Ashtanga classes. If you've never done yoga before check out [www.yogamazing.com.] The podcasts are free on iTunes and Chaz is an awesome…

Grrr. I'm not sure they are accepting new users at the moment. I have Facebook friends with Turntable.fm accounts, but when I try to join I get the error:

Personally, I like to put more emphasis on the cool-down portion of my workout. Depending on who you ask, a proper cool-down routine is more important than the warm-up. Stretching AFTER a workout can reduce next-day soreness, improve flexibility, and assist the body in the repair process. I find my cool-down to be one…

Dryer lint can make excellent tinder. As a Boy Scout, I would collect it at home. Then when we went backpacking I would carry a small zip-lock bag of lint. It's lightweight and burns very easily. It was also nice finding an alternative use for the lint instead of just throwing it in the trash.

Thanks for the input. I currently just have the Nikkor 18-55mm kit lens that came with my D5000. I've been considering the Nikkor 18-200mm but its tough accepting the fact that a lens will be worth more than my camera body. I'm beginning understand this is all part of photography. Lens can last a lifetime while bodies…

I've been given this advice: Carry your camera EVERYWHERE you go. Since you only get better with practice, make sure you always have your camera nearby. Also, create challenges for yourself. For example, have a different theme each week, like babies, reflections, wheels, just anything random. Interpret the theme…

What would be a good, general purpose lens? I'm taking a trip to Hawaii and plan to take photos of the landscape, portraits, nature, food, and action. I'd like to get away with taking only one lens. (Specifically I'm interested in Nikkor lenses but all opinions are welcomed)

Nikon D3100 would be great for a beginner. You might also compare it to the recently discontinued D5000. If you shop around you might find a great deal on a D5000 as retailers try to clear their inventory.

Very intelligent and well thought-out discussion on BitCoin going on at Quora - [www.quora.com]

Here's some good advice from an Ignite talk, pretty entertaining too.

Crap. Guess I need to learn the faces of my friends' kids and pets who are tagged in all of their photos.

@SquareWheel: It is great as long as you can resist impulse buys. I tend to buy groupons for stuff I plan to buy anyways, like 50% off oil changes or at a restaurant I frequent .

This is SEO at its worst... or best. Recently I was having drinks with a friend who does SEO. To understand more of his business I asked, "Assume, I'm a business owner who has some bad reviews show up on Google. How would you help me?" His response was he'd generate positive reviews to balance out the bad ones. I was…

Is the advice about charging your battery often valid? I was always under the impression that to keep your battery healthy you should only charge it when it is nearly depleted. Leaving it constantly plugged in and unnecessarily charging can shorten the overall battery life. Although, I may simply be living by…
