Ipod Touch / Iphone
What I'm talking about is that photos appear to have a wider field of view. See below for two screen captures of what I'm seeing. Photo Video Video mode appears to "zoom in" and give me less field of view.

Ipod Touch / Iphone
Can someone tell me why the field of view when shooting video on the iPhone is so radically different than when shooting photos? I did some googling and came up empty.

Head Case Motorsports
Eh, not that tweaked about it really. What is frustrating is that both the front and rear rotors are thrashed on the car (rush damage) after only 30k. I suspect it is due to the PO not driving much and letting the car sit - it was 2+ years old when I bought it and only had 13k on it. So now I'm researching brakes and trying to decide if I'm going to upgrade at all or leave well enough alone.

My 2¢ - it's a good show, not a great one. I enjoyed it quite a bit for the first few years but Meghan Markle and Sarah Rafferty, despite their considerable charms, were not able to sustain my interest.

What are you reading now?
I'm over halfway through the 10hrs already and have a work trip (driving) this week that'll probably allow me to get through the rest comfortably so I should be ok.

I'm boycotting anything related to the movie until I finish the (audio)book.

Which Cooking Are You?
Those are actually cinnamon chip scones. Chocolate chip versions get made occasionally but both Maura and I are cinnamon fiends so these are the standard fare when scones are made. Both go well with bacon (but what doesn't?!??!).

Google says it's someone that acts as a parent but isn't. In this case my bet is that it's something akin to a godparent.

What are you reading now?
Based on advice from a friend I started The Martian the other day. I'm actually listening, rather than reading, and I think this might be the perfect way to experience this book. There's so much tone and inflection required (the primary narrator/character is a sarcastic sonofabitch) and it is frequently laugh out loud funny. I'm about 30% in and very interested to see where they take it. It's being released in film form later this year I think and I can't imagine how they managed the transition.

I started Sense8 last night. Interesting first episode. Friends have built this up to be quite the show so I'm hopeful that I haven't gotten my expectations up too high.

Sherlock
Brett was the quintessential Holmes, I grew up watching that series and have fond memories. But I also enjoy the heck out of Cumberbatch's Holmes and don't think that there's a need to disparage one in support of the other.

Cool Kickstarter/Indiegogo Campaigns
To me, at best, it screams unnecessarily complex. At worst I think Steve's probably got it right and it'll be $1M of funding wasted.

Nice Dan. I did the commute back and forth to work today. The afternoon was supposed to be hot but actually wasn't too bad. Both trips felt good.

I prefer the Omega band by a large margin. Specifically what I don't like about the Hirsch is what appears to be a large yellow reveal on the side of the strap. Too much for an accent, in my book.

Use 9DW-1-YEB9E to get $40 off (each) Michelin Pro4 Service Course tires at Steep and Cheap. I just grabbed two @25mm and the total with shipping was $67. Pretty timely since my existing tires are shagged and cracking. In other news I made it out for a good 24miler yesterday and was surprised to feel half-decent and not be terribly slow considering how little I've ridden this year.
