/**
* Original author: David Eads (https://github.com/eads)
*
* Wrap D3 charting components in a simple Backbone view interface
*
* Provides a redrawing path, data sync, and fallback for non-d3 browsers.
*
* Views that extend ChartView should implement their own "draw" function and go to work.

Veggie ramen broth. Because sometimes, just sometimes, you need to feed a vegan who suffers from Celiac disease.

Veggie Stock for Ramen

This is a two-part stock. It starts as an umami-heavy kombu/mushroom dashi and then adds a vegetable backbone. Intended to mimic the "two-broth" style of non-vegetarian ramen stock.

Ingredients

Dashi

Note these are estimates. You can vary by more than double without ruining anything.

  • 1 medium package (3-4 oz) of dried mushrooms
  • 3 sheets of kombu kelp

Simple JS function that returns a bounding rect for an element with absolute coordinates corrected for scroll positions.
/**
Returns a bounding rect for _el_ with absolute coordinates corrected for

is part of a scrollable region that has been scrolled, its coordinates will
be different than if the region hadn't been scrolled.
This method corrects for scroll offsets all the way up the node tree, so the
