In Australia the most common quantities are the pint (20oz), schooner (15oz), and pot (10oz); the pint is probably the most common. That said, there's also the jug, which is likely more important on the whole.

Does anyone know how to remove slime that has clogged up the Schrader valve of a bike?
Also, is there a better solution to preventing tire flats than slime? I live around Phoenix in Arizona and even on the nicest streets there is a ton of little thorns on the sidewalks/roads.

Is there a place to find telecommute jobs? I look at my local craigslist and another local classifieds site but I'm wondering if there's a good site for jobs not requiring a specific location.

I'm feeling very unsatisfied with my life at present.
I'm in community college right now and I'm not doing particularly well (which is odd because I've excelled in past semesters and have a lot of uncertainties/worries in myself.
This comes mainly from a combination of me still trying to get over my parents' divorce and me wanting to jumpstart my film career sooner rather than later. What holds me back is my parents telling me my education is more important. I disagree because I know that my associate's degree won't get me very far (if anywhere at all) in the field I've chosen, but they are so insistent about it that it is driving me mad!
All of this dysfunction going on in my life may lead to an emotional meltdown that could very likely occur. I had one last year (around the same time oddly enough) and I think it might happen again.
What should I do? I can't decide which path I should go down on my own and I'd really appreciate it if any of you could give me advice about what I should do?

You seem to already know what you want to do which is something with film.
In short, identify what you want to do which you say is a film career, see if there is a tertiary education course which can bolster this and you will have a good education to base your career upon.
I strongly recommend getting a tertiary education regardless, it will serve you well even if you don't use it in your main career, like a Bachelors in film and media.
A friend of mine did this and started off his directing career with some of his final year movie shorts being noticed by advertising companies, it also built him a portfolio he could present to potential employers.
However only take everyone's opinion as a suggestion make sure that you personally agree with it.
I've decided that I'm never going to go to one. That filmmaking summer course showed me that film school is a waste of time that sucks your money away like a mosquito does to blood, except if you want to network and meet people who will be future collaborators. I succeeded in the latter, so now I don't need to do it anymore.
Geo, do you have a portfolio? If no: Start working on cool projects and build your portfolio. If yes: Continue working on cool projects and build your portfolio. Getting your work out there is pretty much the most important thing in creative fields, more than fancy degrees and networking (come to think of it, it's the same in certain areas of tech, too).
Your film aspirations and all are cute and nobody will tell you not to follow your dream, but there's something to be said for getting a broad college-level education to give you something to fall-back on.
Then just start making stuff. What's the focus of what you're doing in Community College?
There isn't any real focus per se, it's just a general studies associate's degree (because there is no film or similar degree available to me).
Make things, and make friends with people who are making the types of things you want to make. Also move to LA.
But won't the insanely high cost of living there turn me into a bum in less than a month?
I have an idea of what I want to do (which is secure film editing jobs, network with people on the jobs, and directing/writing stuff on the side), I just need to find a way to convince my parents that this is what I want to do.

20oz = Imperial Pint, UK, "Tall"*
*A "Tall" kind of depends on where you go to drink. Some are 20oz and others are 24oz.
Interesting.
For people who don't understand fluid ounces -
16 oz = 473.17 mL
20 oz = 591.47 mL
24 oz = 709.76 mL
If Wikipedia is right, the terminology varies a lot by state.
Also, is there a better solution to preventing tire flats than slime? I live around Phoenix in Arizona and even on the nicest streets there is a ton of little thorns on the sidewalks/roads.
