Window Size problems with snapzu

<p>I get these window size issues with snapzu. They seem to come and go as updates change things. I have to make the text really small in order to make the sidebar and the voting functional. Here are two screenshots:</p> <ol><li><p><a href="http://imgur.com/qFq6jpE" target="_blank">Zoom 67%</a>: Sidebar functional, voting arrows present. Also apparently in the home screen there is a whole row of categorues at the top now visible.</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://imgur.com/uJPoZwN" target="_blank">Zoom 80%</a>: Sidebar cannot be removed, voting arrows hidden. IN the home screen, categories not visible.</p></li> </ol> <p>The trouble is that at Zoom:67% I can barely read the text.</p>

Replacing beef with beans could save the planet, because people farts are better than cow farts

There&#039;s an old childhood ditty about eating beans that starts off “beans, beans, they&#039;re good for your heart,” and ends with a snicker-inducing line about their other well-known effects. It turns out, though, that beans are good for more than your heart. Eating them could also be good for the climate.
