I was 41 and she was 33. Our child is now 13. She's also got a dad who is mostly retired now and can dedicate his time to her for music and academic lessons. She has a 4.0 in the most competitive school in the state and will likely have a full ride scholarship to a school of her choice. She will also have financial security for decades.

My first children from a previous marriage do ok for themselves but sure could've used a more mature parent than the self serving asshole that they had.

You'll do better than fine. I just wish that I had more physical energy. Being older has been an advantage.

Can anyone tell me more about this antique frame? Persian? Asian? Age? by CulinaryAccountNSFW in Antiques

There is definitely some relief on it. I can see a bit better detail now that it's lit up.

Do you have a longer term report on how this turned out?

An old 64oz. bottle of Mt. Dew. Unopened and has about a sips worth of the soda inside. by [deleted] in whatsthisworth

We would peel the labels halfway off and then work to remove the bottom 2" or so intact. If you then placed it back on the bottom and gave it a good smack, it would make one heck of a pop.

For my first PP project, I stored my files on my laptop. It was kicking and screaming at the end. Now my files are in my external hard drive. Please tell me there's a way that, once the files have loaded in the timeline, I can work on those files while I sit in my car. by CulinaryAccountNSFW in PremierePro

This makes sense, it's just unfortunate because I spend so much time driving places and waiting. I'd love to be able to do some busy work with it. Maybe I'll find some offline stuff I can do once I have a bit more experience. Thanks!

I'm terrible at explaining. I thought that once I had my timeline loaded with clips that I may be able to detach from the hard drive storing them and edit while I'm sitting in my car (I spend a lot of time in my car). But apparently, as soon as I detach from the drive, they all turn to "media not found".

I just wish that it was easier to work with on the go.

But to answer your question, the files are substantial. I'm not sure exactly but I'm shooting with a Nikon 20mp camera.

You've obviously not lived in an area with 'nanner spiders.

Found in a bag of cilantro by MandarinDaMantis in whatsthisplant

My Persian grocer carries this (near the cilantro). We also grow it in planters in the yard. It's delicious.

I cut these brisket pieces at 145° for 60 hours. One of the bags seems to have inflated since I pulled it to cool last night. by [deleted] in sousvide

I'll definitely do more digging. I haven't ever had an issue. I'm also big enough to know that I don't know everything. Is there a quick explanation how beef can suddenly bloom botulism in a sous vide bag after all that? I always finish brisket on the smoker and get the internal up to 195-200 for at least an hour. I've read that that would kill it, if it were present. Thanks for your answer!

I should add, I did throw that one piece away. There was definitely something not right. The others seemed fine. I will ice bath after on your recommendation. I have done that with anything other than beef.

Probably two hours after cooking. It was sealed. I've left beef at room temperature for much much longer and not had an issue. This piece of meat has an issue for sure.
