If you want to try home-brewing without all the hassle, one of the most painless ways to do it is to start with fruit juice. Claire Lower over on xoJane tried this method using two different types of yeast powder to see which one produced the highest alcohol content.

Fix it with the ‘Play-Doh’ of Camera Repair. Imagine a colorful self-setting rubber that you can keep in your camera bag and bust out at any time to repair on-the-job cracks, breaks and tears. Sugru is such a product, a moldable Play-Doh-like synthetic that can also be shaped into custom camera grips, monopod and tripod mounts and can add color and texture to existing buttons on your DSLR. When you open a packet of Sugru, you form it and shape it by rolling it in the palm of your hand and fingers.
You then apply it and form it to your satisfaction, as it will remain pliable for 30 minutes before the 24-hour period it requires to set. Sugru is waterproof and electrically insulating. Unopened packets last for six months at room temperature but will keep three times as long if stored in a refrigerator. From now on, I keep a small packet of Sugru in my bag whenever on location. 1.

You should mention that, for Canon anyway, some lenses are designed to only work with crop-frame cameras (EF-S lenses) and won't be compatible if you upgrade to full frame. Conversely, traditional (EF) lenses will work on crop and full frame. The EF-S lenses tend to cost less, probably because you don't have to worry as much about edge effects since the sensor won't pick it up anyway. But those EF-S lenses won't follow you to a nicer body if you ever upgrade. Other than the kit EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5, I have a Canon EF 28mm f/1.8. High quality wide angles are particularly expensive.

Well, it is probably not the smartest move ever to call monolingual people dumb. But here in Europe (or at least in most countries) learning a second language is compulsory in secondary school.

Stating one's views is easily one of the most offensive things one can do, especially when that opinion contains a dogmatic/kerygmatic judgment of others.
In essence, just as What-his-nuts (I believe that is, in fact, his legal name) is free to share his opinions regarding the homosexual community, others are free to share their views of his fucktardedness. It is confounding to me to see people defend What-his-nuts' opinion with the "don't denigrate him for what he believes" argument (note, probably a better term for this) — of COURSE I will judge him based o his opinions and beliefs; I should. His expressed opinions and beliefs, and reasoning thereof invites both dialogue and disagreement, and respectfulness of said opinions and beliefs is not required. I agree with you Steven.
