Easy Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese
November 26, 2012 | By | COMMENTSSometimes I write recipe posts where I share a recipe at the end and other times I write recipe posts where the recipe is embedded in the post itself. There's a reason for that!
Recipe posts where the recipe's at the end are the kinds of recipes where specific amounts matter; recipe posts where I just write a recipe as part of a larger narrative are recipes where you can just wing it. So, Sam Sifton's Pear Cobbler? You need to follow those instructions. But my Butternut Squash Soup with Whiskey Ginger Cream? That's a totally improvised recipe and I wanted to give you the power to improvise your own version. If I'd written that with specific amounts, chances are you would've just replicated what I did instead of doing it your own way. The soup will taste better if you do it your way.
Allow me to illustrate that with a dinner from last week: tomato soup and grilled cheese.
The process couldn't have been easier. In a large pot, I cooked an onion (with a pinch of salt) and some garlic (a few cloves, chopped) in olive oil until the onion was translucent and the garlic was fragrant. I added a pinch of a red chile flakes, then a large can of peeled tomatoes. I then filled the empty tomato can with water, added that to the pot, seasoned everything with salt and allowed it to simmer for 20 minutes until the tomatoes were mostly broken down. At that point, I blended everything with a stick blender:
If the soup had been too thick, I would've added more water; as it was, it was just right. Only, I wanted a creamier soup so I added (drumroll): cream! Just until the soup turned pink. I tasted for salt and voila, I was done.
Really, with the stick blender, this soup was a total cinch. (I think the stick blender is my new favorite kitchen tool. See also: salad dressings in a jar.)
So that's my very casual tomato soup recipe. (If you want to gussy things up further, you could add Sriracha and blue cheese, like Michael Symon does in his recipe.) And as for my very casual grilled cheese recipe, I can do that in one sentence: make a cheese sandwich, put 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet on high heat and when the foam goes down and the butter's super hot, lower the sandwich in and fry on both sides. That's grilled cheese.
And that's my casual approach to recipes. It's not so much laziness as it is an unwillingness to nail down specific amounts. If that doesn't work for you, I definitely understand. We'll just have to call off the wedding!

Your DP table looks great Adrian. I especially like your low fence. I have always felt that most folks (me included) build them too high and have problems with the plunge handles. The hold downs on the rest look very good too. I'm wondering if the holes in the top are for clamps to anchor the table or are they just handholds to lift it off? -- Mike, an American living in Norway. |

Thanks mike, holes are for f style clamps. Helps with large stock and drilling with table rotated 90 degrees. Look up Ronald Walters drill press table on google I took a lot of ideas from his version. |

Very nice looking DP upgrade, should make all Your drilling ops much more accurate and easier to set up ! I wish I would have gone with the off set circle pads in my design, makes much more sense.

I too am going to be following Ronald's design when I make my table as I think it is the best one I've seen yet. My question, however, is this: for the rotating insert, you'd have to still put something down over the table, it seems, when drilling wider holes (say, a 2" forstner), right? I'd imagine that would cause issue and go outside of the insert material otherwise… -- Matt, Arizona, http://www.reintroducing.com |

Great looking table. I'm planning my DPT and am curious how you did the tear out block in the center as well as the "plug" that occupies the space. I'll also be wanting to use drum sanders with the table, will this offset circle setup accommodate their use? Thanks. |

Here's the 2007 Mars Page
How much smaller is Mars now? Arcsec diameter of Mars each month in 2003
What's an arcsec anyway? Definition of astronomical measures: degree, arcmin, arcsec
Missed out on Mars? Or have "a friend" who missed out? Mars will be 20 arc sec in diameter October 22nd 2005. Magnitude -2. 44 million miles from earth. Plus it will be higher in the sky so it will be seen through less of our yucky atmosphere. Mars was this large (20 arc sec) in diameter in late July 2003 before opposition, and again in late September post opposition.
Geology The Geology of Mars The six geologic processes that shape Mars past, present and future
Where can you view Mars in Northern California in October - Still some excellent Mars observing opportunities through October. Mars will rise earlier and therefore be visible earlier in the evening in October. By the end of September, Mars will shrink from 25 arc seconds in diameter at opposition to 21 arc seconds in diameter. By the end of October, Mars will be 15 arc sec in diameter.
These Mars events are over - more above - Mars will be back in 2005. 19-20 arc sec in diameter October/November 2005

Sunday afternoon, Little Monkey and I took a trip to the circus! We had an awesome time. It was the Jerusalem Shrine Circus and I was pretty impressed by the variety and quality of the acts. Before the show, they had elephant rides, pony rides, pictures with a snake, bounce houses and face painting. As you can see below, LM chose to get his face painted like a snake. He kept making me take pictures of him so he could see himself (he was very impressed).
His two favorite parts were the Human Cannonball and the Lions. I'd say I was most impressed by the motorcycles. They had this small metal cage and put 6 motorcycles in it and they drove around and around and upside down without running into each other. It was unbelievable!
We had a great time together and he was completely zonked out by the time we got home.

AG News
A Centennial Pilgrimage to Hot Springs
Thu, 17 Apr 2014 - 10:36 AM CST
Holding a historic picture from the 1914 gathering in Hot Springs, current members of the Assemblies of God Executive Leadership Team and some Executive Presbyters pose in the same place as the original photo. |
Approximately 300 people gathered in Hot Springs, Arkansas, on April 10-11, 2014, to celebrate the centennial of the Assemblies of God. Echoes of the statements from the founding general council, where another 300 ministers gathered in the same place exactly 100 years earlier, could be heard throughout the two-day event.
The centennial celebration, sponsored by the AGTrust, featured seven speakers and a night of gospel music and worship. The celebration concluded with a pilgrimage to the site of the former Grand Opera House, where the first general council was held, to re-create the iconic photograph of the founders of the Assemblies of God.
One hundred years ago, Hot Springs had a reputation as a wild town, known for its alcohol, prostitution, gangs and drugs. When the founders of the Assemblies of God met at the Hot Springs Grand Opera House for the first general council, they had to pass by the saloon at the front of the building in order to attend the meetings in the auditorium. The centennial celebration was held in a more sanctified setting — the spacious First Assembly of God, Hot Springs, Arkansas, pastored by Larry Burton.
The centennial celebration drew people from across the United States. Jean and Magalie Rebecca, a husband and wife who pastor Haitian Assembly of God, Dorchester, Massachusetts, were excited to be able to participate: "We grew up in the Assemblies of God in Haiti. The Assemblies of God is a worldwide family, and we wanted to represent Haitians in Hot Springs."
Attendees also included descendants of some of the participants in the first general council, held April 2-12, 1914. Bonnie Olsen, the granddaughter of founding Assemblies of God minister Oliver P. Brann, felt right at home. She commented, "I experienced faith-filled services and the power of God this week. I wish I could experience this every day!"
General Superintendent George O. Wood opened the celebration on Thursday by recounting the five reasons for the formation of the Assemblies of God as enumerated in the century-old "Call to Hot Springs." Each speaker continued in this vein, expounding on why the founding principles of the Assemblies of God remain compelling today. Greg Mundis, executive director of Assemblies of God World Missions, shared about the heritage of missionaries who suffered, sometimes unto death, to bring the gospel around the world. Assistant General Superintendent Alton Garrison preached on the bedrock importance of the Word of God.
Many men and women came forward for healing during the centennial service held at First Assembly of God in Hot Springs. |
True to Pentecostal form, the afternoon service included an extended time at the altar. Hundreds of voices were raised in fervent prayer, and people flooded the altars and aisles in the church. Following a time of prayer for specific areas of ministry, Garrison asked those present in need of healing to come forward for prayer. Vocal spiritual gifts were manifested, and several people later testified of physical healings.
Wilfredo de Jesús, pastor of New Life Covenant Church, Chicago, Illinois, encouraged those who are carrying on the Pentecostal legacy to fight complacency in their spiritual lives. "It is essential to build a bridge," he asserted, "so that the younger generation can learn about the power of the Holy Spirit from the older generation." He illustrated this principle with the biblical example of Elijah, the older prophet, who discipled Elisha, the younger prophet. De Jesús pointedly observed, "Elijah and Elisha were from different generations, but they walked together."
Thursday evening, gospel musicians Johnny Minick and Russ Taff led participants in three hours of rousing worship. The music included songs from each decade of the last 100 years. About 40 people - including Wood and Garrison — even participated in a Jericho March, which is a spirited procession around the church in a single file during the worship service. The practice originated in Kentucky Presbyterian camp meetings during the Second Great Awakening and had been adopted by some early Pentecostals.
On Friday morning, three younger ministers spoke — Rod Loy (First Assembly, North Little Rock, Arkansas), Rob Ketterling (River Valley Church, Apple Valley, Minnesota) and Aaron Cole (Life Church, Milwaukee, Wisconsin). They described how Assemblies of God founding ideals are being carried out today and also envisioned the future of the Fellowship.
Attendees of the centennial event make their way up to where the iconic "photo of 300" of the original founders of the Assemblies of God was taken in 1914. Once there, a new centennial photo was taken in the exact same place, re-creating the century-old photo. |
The celebration culminated in a pilgrimage to the site where the Hot Springs Grand Opera House once stood. The 300 attendees viewed the new historic marker in honor of the Assemblies of God centennial, which was placed in the sidewalk near Mountain Valley Spring Company, located at 150 Central Avenue. They proceeded to climb the winding trail behind the site of the former Grand Opera House until they reached a small clearing where the iconic photograph from the first general council had been taken.
J. Don George, an Assemblies of God senior statesman and founding pastor of Calvary Church, Irving, Texas, called the centennial event in Hot Springs "a historic occasion that will be long remembered." He noted that the event was relatively small in comparison to the larger centennial celebration slated to be held in Springfield, Missouri, on August 5-10, 2014, in conjunction with the World Assemblies of God Congress. "As a movement we are called to generational, gender, cultural and racial diversity," George stated. When thousands of visitors from across the United States and the world descend on Springfield in August, this diversity will be on full display.
A historic marker, indicating the historic location of the site of the founding convention of the Assemblies of God, was placed in the sidewalk on Central Avenue in Hot Springs. |
The men and women who met in Hot Springs 100 years ago laid a foundation for a cooperative Fellowship that would help Pentecostals to more effectively evangelize the world. One hundred years later, the Assemblies of God has more than 3.1 million adherents in the United States and more than 66 million worldwide.
The centennial gathering offered both a celebration of the past century and a vision for the future. According to George O. Wood, the Assemblies of God, throughout its history, "has been marked by purpose and passion." He explained, "Our purpose is embedded in our doctrine, mission, values and strategies. Our passion comes from the work of the Holy Spirit who continues to empower us to do the greatest work of evangelism the world has ever seen." Wood predicted, "The future for the Assemblies of God is truly as bright as the promises of God."

Yeah, we finally got our Matilda Jane clothes. Thanks Angie for letting me come.
For those of you who know Mya, then you know she is at a really naughty stage in her life, and hates getting her pictures. Jess can attest to that when she did our family pictures. So to get these shots of her being on her good behavior really made my day. She only lasted about 15 min:)

1903 Forest Drive, Forestry Farm and Zoo, S7S 1G9, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, S7H, Canada
Forestry Farm Superintendent's ResidenceSuperintendent's Residence
The Forestry Farm Superintendent's Residence is a Municipal Heritage Property located on a 115 square-metre parcel of land at the Forestry Farm and Zoo in Saskatoon. The property features a 2 ¼-storey, red brick residence built in 1913, with landscaped green space and foliage surrounding the building.
The heritage value of the Forestry Farm Superintendent's Residence resides in its association with prairie settlement and the federal government's tree-planting program, which operated from this site from 1913-1966 and promoted the propagation and distribution of seedlings, horticultural research, and farm beautification. The Superintendent's Residence and its surrounding outbuildings were purpose-built to serve as the focal point of the nursery and as a model farmyard for prairie newcomers as they established their homesteads. As a result, the residence, its surrounding grounds, and ornamental plantings played a key role in shaping the prairie environment. Heritage value also resides in the site's importance to Saskatoon residents. From its earliest days, the residence and its opulent grounds were a major recreational site for city residents; by 1930, the nursery could boast as many as 3000 visitors on a pleasant weekend, including the Governor-General and his wife, Lord and Lady Byng, in the early 1920s. Further heritage value lies in the structure's architecture. Simple in design, the building reflects a muted Georgian influence with its brick materials, symmetrical lines and proportions, and evenly spaced windows. It comprises 2 ¼ storeys with a flat-front façade and features a complex hipped roof, which is pierced by two hipped dormers. Not typical of a prairie farm house, the Superintendent's Residence, along with its ornamental plantings and cultural landscape, continues to symbolize the original role of the nursery and is a testament to the government forestry policy that had a profound impact on the environment of the prairies. Sources: City of Saskatoon Bylaw No. 7122. "Forestry Farm Park and Zoo." Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada. Letters to the Saskatchewan Heritage Property Review Board Hearing, April 2, 1996.
The heritage value of the Forestry Farm Superintendent's Residence resides in the following character-defining elements: -those features that speak to the building's architecture and design, including the simple, symmetrical lines, the evenly spaced windows, the red-brick cladding, the hipped roof and dormers; -those elements that speak to the relationship of the house to its surrounding landscape, such as its central location on the grounds and the ornamental plantings that surround the residence.

Sapporo Excel Hotel Tokyu is a little bit out of way. Clean,adequate room size. We loved the breakfast there,good milk,the restaurant facing a cute garden. Price fair,staff friendly. We had a wonderful stay. Faboulous breakfast both "western" and "japanese style". Underground station at 4' minutes walk. As a whole, pretty nice place to stay.
Ilona H. United States of America
Niseko Northern Resort Annupuri is a pleasant and comfortable hotel in which to enjoy Niseko's great snow. The staff are pleasant, and there are staff around who can speak English. The rooms are comfortable and sizeable by Japanese standards. Annupuri is a good place to stay if you like quiet and good snow. Overall, a comfortable place to stay that is well organised.

A feast for they eyes – a clean and well-groomed chef is extremely important for the guests. But not only chefs, the entire kitchen personnel needs to look well-groomed, which is why engelbert strauss supplies chef whites that combine a high level of functionality with an eye for detail in a sporty dynamic design.
The chef whites e.s.fusion combine tradition and modern elements in one: traditional and durable Glencheck woven material protects against dirt. The engelbert strauss colour range is modern and fresh. Ruby with white and dark blue accents is one new variation often selected by butchers. The combination of chestnut and the white woven structure is also ideal for bakeries or cafés.
The chef whites are available in a short, three-quarter or long arm version – and looks great when combined with chef's trousers from engelbert strauss.
Clever details, such as the underarm ventilation with zips slits, two vertical elastic creases that expand like an accordion thanks to the eazyfit climate technology and horizontal ventilation on the back make these chef whites a real favourite. However, there are lots more chef jacket models available at engelbert strauss; take at look at the wide range in the special engelbert strauss chef's shop. The chef whites 'Darla' was developed for women and has a feminine design.
For chefs who like things to be colourful: the coloured chef whites not only add a bit of pep to the kitchen, but also brighten it up! These elegant chef whites are available in traditional black, but also in red and Bordeaux. Their upright collars, Vienna seams, the breast pocket and the ventilation holes below the sleeves make these chef whites premium products. Matching the chef's jackets, the engelbert strauss online shop from also has a wide range of modern chef's trousers, such as the Toulouse model in upmarket black, and the right footwear. Accessories, such as chef's hats, ball buttons and button bars, are also available and can be beautifully combined with the modern kitchen garments from engelbert strauss.

S.E. Cupp Lays Into Michael Moore For Characterizing Gun Owners As Pariahs (VIDEO)

Bill Maher: 'A Lot' of The Constitution is Bullsh*t
"Political philosopherHBO know-it-all pundit Bill Maher had some really intelligent phraseology to describe The Constitution of the United States:"I mean, a lot of it is bullsh*t. I mean, the Second Amendment is bullsh*t, the way they interpret the Second Amendment. The left completely forgot how to interpret that. I mean, it really is about militias at a time when, you know, there was a battle between the states and the government. It wasn't really about private citizens owning a handgun."
" A brief survey of the literature finds that Maher is an abject ignoramus. Federalist No. 46, written by key Constitutional framer James Madison, for example, had the following to say:
It may well be doubted, whether a militia thus circumstanced could ever be conquered by such a proportion of regular troops. Those who are best acquainted with the last successful resistance of this country against the British arms, will be most inclined to deny the possibility of it. Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. And it is not certain, that with this aid alone they would not be able to shake off their yokes.
In addition, there are the underlying rights, namely, the right to self-defense and the right of resistance. An article "Never Ask Who Should Rule: Karl Popper and Political Theory" written by scholar Andrea Pickel in 1989 described the theory of John Locke: "

I find myself speechless at the realization that Bill Maher and myself are in complete agreement ….. At least in this matter ..
Read for yourself ..
" "I am for the death penalty, although I do believe in more DNA testing," Maher continued. "My motto is, 'Let's kill the right people.' I'm pro-choice. I'm for assisted suicide. I'm for regular suicide.
I'm for whatever gets the freeway
moving. That's what I'm for." "
"Bill Maher, who gave $1 million to President Obama's super PAC, said that Obama lost the presidential debate and suggested he needs a teleprompter."
"Now O'Keefe is back, defiant as ever. His new video shows Project Veritas going into poll locations in DC on April 3, being offered ballots for Ben Jealous, President & CEO of the NAACP; one Bill Maher; and David Brock (Project Veritas says they could not verify whether the David Brock for which they were offered a ballot was the same David Brock as the Media Matters president)."

Cary Elwes
"I always resented the role of a drummer as nothing more than a subservient figure."

Leelee Sobieski
"I don't think I'm allowed to talk about that. It is definitely not me. The role has been cast."

Harold S. Geneen
"The fool for Christ holds a prophetic role in Christianity, from the early church to Russian Orthodox 'pilgrims' and such later fools as Luther, Kierkegaard, and Dostoevsky, who were seekers after the true, the good, the holy, the beautiful. They were insane - not in a clinical sense, but in the madness of the Holy, an insanity which ordinary sanity refuses to admit."

(CNN) - John McCain needs to cool his rhetoric attacking Barack Obama over foreign policy, one of the Arizona senator's good friends in the Senate said.
According to a report on Huffingtonpost.com, Nebraska Sen. Chuck Hagel, a Republican and long time friend of McCain, said Tuesday he is "very upset" with some of the things the party's presumptive presidential nominee has been saying as he campaigns for the White House.
"We know from past campaigns that presidential candidates will say many things," Hagel reportedly said. "But once they have the responsibility to govern the country and lead the world, that difference between what they said and what responsibilities they have to fulfill are vastly different."
"I'm very upset with John with some of the things he's been saying," Hagel added. "And I can't get into the psychoanalysis of it. But I believe that John is smarter than some of the things he is saying. He is, he understands it more. John is a man who reads a lot, he's been around the world. I want him to get above that and maybe when he gets into the general election, and becomes the general election candidate he will have a higher-level discourse on these things."
Hagel, who is not running for reelection in November, has become an outspoken critic of the War in Iraq and he said in April he is open to the possibility of endorsing Obama's candidacy.
BOSTON (CNN) - Sen. Edward Kennedy, who was hospitalized Saturday after suffering a seizure at his home in Hyannisport, will be released from the hospital this morning about 10, his doctors said.
(CNN) - Even in a state Hillary Clinton appears to have won by 35 points, a majority of Kentucky voters say the New York senator attacked Barack Obama unfairly.
According to the exit polls, 54 percent of voters said Clinton launched unfair attacks on Obama, though that didn't seem to deter voters there from supporting Clinton - 55 percent of those who said Clinton attacked unfairly still voted for the New York senator.
Clinton faced a similar statistic in West Virginia last week. There she won by 41 points, but nearly 60 percent of voters said she made unfair attacks against the Illinois senator.

Obama Takes Delegate Majority
Sen. Barack Obama crossed another threshold last night in his march toward the Democratic presidential nomination, splitting a pair of primaries with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and claiming a majority of the pledged delegates at stake in the long nomination battle.
WSJ: Clinton Keeps Up Fight
Heading into twin Democratic primaries Tuesday in Kentucky and Oregon - which the two candidates are expected to split - Sen. Hillary Clinton is vowing to stay in the race to the end, even as her staff and supporters show further signs of fraying. In an interview in Bowling Green, Ky., on Sunday where she was campaigning ahead of Tuesday's vote, Sen. Clinton said, "I'm still here because I think I would be the best president."
Youngest Kennedy Brother Enhanced Legacy, and Built His Own
For millions of Americans, the announcement that Sen. Edward M. Kennedy has brain cancer was at least the fourth chapter of a tragic epic that began on Nov. 22, 1963, with the assassination of John F. Kennedy. It continued through the death of his brother Robert in 1968, then of John Jr. in a plane crash in 1999. And yesterday it was the sudden reminder of the mortality of the last surviving son of Joseph P. Kennedy, the patriarch who created this family of strivers and doers.
LA Times: McCain, in Miami, promises to continue isolating Cuba
Sen. John McCain on Tuesday laid out his plans for strengthening democracy and U.S. influence in Latin America, vowing to extend free-trade pacts throughout the region and to continue isolating Cuba until the communist-ruled island frees political prisoners
Compiled by Mary Grace Lucas, CNN Washington Bureau
* Sen. Hillary Clinton campaigns in Florida, holding "Solutions for America" events in Boca Raton, Sunrise, and Coral Gables.
* Sen. John McCain has no public events.
* Sen. Barack Obama is also in Florida today, holding a rally in Tampa at noon and then heads to a town hall meeting in Kissimmee.

LOSING THE GEMS: The Osbournes really don't have much luck with their shiny jewels, do they? First of all, after "coming back from America" a bloke ran away with rings and things he found in Ozzy and Sharon's bedroom; now jack osbourne has lost over a third of a million bucks worth of jewellery and watches.
Jack had put the stuff into his checked luggage while flying from LA to London.
Now, just because you'd have to be stupider than a drunken village idiot to put valuables into checked baggage doesn't mean we should go up to Young Jack and say "Bemmm!" like we did when we were at school. And it would be awful to ride up and down the street outside his house on a tricycle yelling "Hello! I'll put a third of a million dollars into this unlocked bag and give it to complete strangers!" with your pants on your head. Let's not even start to give in to low speculation about what the hell he must have had in his carry-on if he couldn't find space for jewels worth more than ten times the average salary. That would be unfair.
And let's not raise any questions about what he was doing shifting two - two watches and precious things in a suitcase. Apparently "they were gifts" said Young Jack, as he asked a passer-by to hold his wallet while he did his shoes up.

Minimum Stay | 7 nights |
This lovely location is further enhanced with all new furnishings and significant remodeling. Expansive views to the north with opportunity to view eagles, whales and other wildlife. You will be awed by the mountain range and ski resort lights at night. A three story floor plan for a relaxing vacation and lovely community beach just a short walk away. Also close to town for your convenience. Make merry and play the upright piano for sing-a-longs.
I first visited Orcas Island as a 10 year old child staying at a summer camp. My wonderful memories brought my husband and me to the island again when our children were toddlers. We had such a delightful time that we looked for property to buy for ourselves. In 1969, because of its seclusion and view, we bought a lot at Raccoon Point. Our Lindal Cedar Home was built on it in 1972. Only 2 or 3 families came out to Raccoon Point for many years. We had a completely private beach, watched the whales, otters, seals, eagles, deer, enjoyed Mt Baker in the rising and setting sun, saw the ships passing in the distance and the kayakers and fishermen fishing from their boats. The beach is still private with only a few dinghies and kayaks pulled up on shore. Low tide uncovers starfish, sea anemones, barnacles, crabs, and other tide pool life. Driftwood abounds while the beach is forever being changed by the tides. The peacefulness, the views, the beach are the same way today as 40 years ago.
Karen Key Speck purchased this house in 1969
Once you arrive at the Cedar House, you may take off your wrist watch, then forget about time and not put your watch back on until it is time to catch the ferry to the mainland.
We just returned from a stay here with two children. Like the other reviews said, the first time you drive here it can be tricky to find. That said, it feels very private and secluded, and in a very scenic and quiet part of the island. We like to stay in areas like this, so it suited our taste. The house itself was very well-appointed and extremely clean. We had everything we needed... our favorite part was watching the sunset late into the evening from the wrap-around deck. We saw a couple dolphins and sea lions in the waters below us, and many black tail deer came around the house to my daughter's pleasure. The photos of the deck and the view don't do this justice- It's so lovely and peaceful, we looked forward to coming home each day and gazing out into the waters. We also loved the private beach at the end of the road, and spent many mornings exploring. We would highly recommend this with children though it does have a steep downstairs (with a door), so you will need to be mindful depending on ages. But there was a high chair and a play area with toys upstairs which was a nice benefit. We loved our stay! Hope to be back.
We enjoyed a fun week with family in this great house! We had beautiful views of the mountain and sunsets, enjoyed watching the harbor seals, and were visited by many deer. We had plenty of room for all of us. We had 3 little ones under 6 so we loved the beach at Moran Park. We enjoyed Eastsound and traveling around the island. The deck is great! The hardest part was finding it the first time. Thank you for a great stay. The house was immaculate when we arrived.
Everything said by other reviewers is true - a gorgeous location, peaceful, wonderful views. The kitchen is small if you're accustomed to a gathering spot for cooperative meal preparation. The main problem is how little in basic supplies like soap, paper products, etc. are provided. The lengthy instructions sent ahead of time mention this, but it's odd compared to other VRBO properties we've enjoyed. The property is some distance to the nearest store. If you arrive late to this property and forget or can't get to the store for such things, it's inconvenient as is having to make up beds required of guests at this property. Plus, it's not gracious and welcoming. If it costs a bit more to provide such amenities, many like us would not object.
Our family get together included 2 parents and 3 twenty-something kids. Everyone loved this rental. It's secluded, has beautiful views of the surrounding water, opportunity to see wildlife and includes access to a community beach. Just walking around in this small community is fun and interesting. The house has lots of nice porch space, good separation of bedrooms and a large room on the bottom floor for tv or movie watching with maybe 100 videos. There is also a nice laundry area and plenty of books to read. You'll find a fire pit behind the house if you want to roast hot dogs or marshmallows. You can't miss the wood in the shed, but you'll need kindling. There is a wood stove inside if needed. The house has nice, comfortable beds and furniture. There's plenty of room for 6 people to have a place to sit in the living room, if you have more some might want to go downstairs to the family room or sit on the kitchen table chairs. There's a great loft area upstairs outside the bedroom, with children's toys and an area for reading. Follow the direction provided by the rental agency and you will find the house. It's not hard but we wondered if we were on the right road, there aren't many street signs. After that, everything was lots of fun!! Keep the kitchen trash can away from the wall heaters, we melted one and found a replacement at the local hardware store in town. It would be good if there was a sign on the trash can, we were not thinking about that outcome and it got cool at night so we turned on the heater for a while. We left our trash in a 33 gallon bag in the trash can behind the house because the recycling center hours did not work with our departure. The management company was good enough to dispose of it for us and we were only charged $12 for that large bag. A good service and reasonable cost. I think everyone on the island pays by the bag for garbage disposal. Our visit was in early September, 2015. This rental was a very good value for the money spent and a wonderful stay for us!!
Four longtime friends had a wonderful short stay in September. Quiet and cozy. Loved the deck overlooking the beautiful water.
Beautifully situated on the northeast side of the island, it has 2 sides with unobstructed view of the water. Not overly large, but it was comfortable for the 6 of us and accurately described. We were visited by bald eagles, harbor seals, and a mink. It has a secluded feel even with the neighbors. The drive from town seems long at first (gravel road with turns and 15 mph speed limit) but isn't a factor. Many of the roads on the island are slow and this house is closer than many. Look out for turkeys on the road! We would like to return.
Our location is special in that is end of the road private but only five miles from the main hub of activity of Orcas Island - Eastsound. The house is accessed the last 2.5 miles on a dirt/gravel road affording a sense of adventure.

Prep Day
After spending the night at the hot tubs and jerking around a bit too long the next morning, it was off to Lone Pine to try and acquire permits for the next day. Upon arrival to the visitors center at 10:58 AM, we had the lottery process loosely explained to us and it was time to draw. There were only 4 parties involved and we drew #8. Figuring that was the worst number out of 5,6,7 & 8, we kind of listened to the other guy getting the spiel about calling in and seeing if there were cancellations later that day all while the nice lady behind the desk was filling out our permit. Neither of us got exactly what had just happened (and we're very sorry for who it may not have worked out for) but we had permit in hand and back to Bishop we went for food buying and gear sorting.We finished dinner at the pizza place in Lone Pine at about 9:30 Monday night and it was time to find a place to stay, and seeing how James had been climbing in TM for a week and I had driven from sea level the day before, the higher we could sleep the better. Figuring there was no way there were any open spots at the Portal CG, we started to drive back down the road after looking at the trail head and somehow decided to look down a short driveway with 5 spots on it. Low and behold there was 1 empty spot with the name for that night scratch off the list for that spot. We had a spot 100 yards from the trail head, the second major click of the trip. James was staying positive but I figured we were in for a big bite in the ass later in the trip. After staring at glowing eyes in the bushes for a while, it was time for bed, a last glass of Aussie red wine and just after midnight we were down.
The Walk In
We decided to beat the heat we would be on the trail at first light, best layed plans weren't going to happen but 7:30 wasn't too bad. The 3 to 6 hours to Iceberg Lake reports we were hearing sounded good and all but I was pretty much off the couch from sea level a day and a half earlier and we figured if we allotted the whole day it would be a pretty cush hike in. So I with my 47 lb pack and James with his 30 lb pack, up the trail we went. The North Fork canyon is steep but at a comfy snails pace we were scrambling up the ledges and were at lower Boyscout Lake in no time. After a lot of water and a bite to eat we headed for the slabs below upper Boyscout Lake. At this point it should be noted that staying down low to the lake puts you on a more direct trail to the slabs rather than going like we did, high to the left under a huge boulder in the talus field. This route will get you there but a fair amount of bushwacking is involved and it's a bit longer.We stopped in the shade at the last trees just outside of upper BSL for more water and we were off on the last however many thousand feet to Iceberg lake.
We talked to a couple of climbers and 5 or 6 mountaineer routers on their way down and the word was that conditions were sweet and there was only 1 other party at Iceberg doing the MR the next day. It appeared we were going to have the East Butt all to ourselves with perfect weather. OK this was the 3rd click of the trip and I was sure that big bite in the ass was coming fast. Another hour past and we were standing in view of Iceberg Lake. We arrived at maybe 2:30 or 3:00 and spent the rest of the day hanging out and enjoying the scenery.
The Climb
Again, the plan was to be on the route at first light, but after taking some fine pics at camp of the killer alpinglow, we ate, drank, packed and up the gully we went. From here on up it was pitch after pitch of slightly windy, perfectly clear weather and stellar granite. After making our own little adventure for a couple of short pitches at the top, we popped up to the summit right at the USGS markers and there was not a soul there, click #4 and I was sure we were way over due for the HUGE ass biting some how some way. Some pics of antics on the summit, a can of Barokes Premium Australian Wine ( I know it sounds strange, but we import the stuff, the "wine in a can", and it's pretty good stuff and easy to carry) and it was off to find the MR for the hourish class 3 slog back to camp.The next day we had a nice sleep in, packed up and it was beer and burgers at lunchtime back at the Portal.
Overall, one of the best trips I've ever done and the big Bite In The Ass never came to pass, everything just clicked right and we had a ball.
One observation at the end of the trip, there is no way I would ever ascend the MR, the East Face or the East Butt is not only easier in my opinion but so much more fun and aesthetic.
I'll add some pics in (and a funny little video) as soon as I can figure that out.

I never did finish season one during its run. At the halfway point I never returned for reasons I don't recall. I'm sure my schedule had something to do with it. I recall enjoying it and a friend just got it on DVD. I borrowed it and watched all the episodes in about a 10 day span. I feel like having now seen all of season one that it was rather anti-climatic. As I watched and enjoyed each episode as a journey to the end that had been foretold I was sad to actually get to the end. When you know how it ends and rather specifically how many episodes before it happens a sense of non-anticipation developed for me. I was more curious about things they didn't show us. Syler's acquisition of telekensis or his Iceman like ability. Its not that I feel the show was over hyped but I do feel that despite being well told it was quite anti-climatic. Anyone else feel this when they saw it either in broadcast or DVD? I'm going to borrow Season 2, see I'm not dettered, but I hope that the same story structure does not play out. I'd rather not know how the end happens this time.
We did see how he acquired the telekinesis...it was the first special that he killed, as depicted in the flashback episode "Six Months Ago", after he stole the person's information from Chandra Suresh. The freezing power we never saw the origins of, but he'd already garnered FBI attention by the beginning of the series, so he'd clearly been busy in the intervening six months. I think most of us were somewhat disappointed by the actual season finale, after the excellent build-up. I think it particularly suffered from coming right on the heels of two of the season's strongest episodes, "Five Years Gone" and "The Hard Part". It was because of this disappointment that the creators switched to the idea of doing two "volumes" per season, ostensibly so that the lesser amount of build-up would result in less disappointment at the climactic episodes of the volumes. The second volume of Season 2 was aborted due to the writers' strike...and reportedly would have been more of what viewers found disappointing about the first volume of Season 2. None of which should deter you from continuing. They've shown the Season 3 premiere at a convention, and it was really well-received. The creators have stumbled a bit, but they are trying to give the viewers more of what they loved about Season 1.
The scene where Matt discovers Molly implies that Sylar got the freezing power from one of her parents, iirc. I liked the finale - but I didn't expect the Mother of All Battles between Peter and Sylar right then. I understand it's just the first round of many.
My brother let me borrow season one and two. I had seen some episodes during season one but I couldn't get into it. My roommate at the time would record and watch them. He tried to get me into it but at that time, they where half way into the season and it's hard to get into a show like Heroes half way through. Now after watching the show from the beginning, I can see why it was so popular. The last episode was anti-climatic but the rest of the season was good so that made up for it for me. The writing was good, actors great, the plot was very interesting. It seems like maybe it was anti-climatic because they are trying to save some of the best stuff for later on. I don't know maybe that's not true or a sorry excuse. The second season how ever was not so good. Did they get different writers? The quality just seemed to drop big time. I can see why they decided to take a break after the writers strike.
Pretty much agree with everything that romulus said. It was a great show in the first season that had a rather bland season finale. The second season seemed to be spinning it's wheels a lot. If it has been the originally intended length of 24-25 episodes, it might have been better.
I really enjoyed the first season, but let's be honest here, we all knew where the characters and storylines were going. It was like Iron Man -- still fun to watch, but no surprises. Plus there were some "24" moments where it was clear they shifted plot points toward a direction they hadn't intended. I wish they'd do a better job casting extras though. Why does everything happen on completely abandoned city streets?
Good point. I had forgotten but Molly's dad was frozen sitting in that chair. Perhaps that was done by Sylar after absorbing the ability. I expected more than what we got. After being told about it, shown it on canvas I wanted more than what we got. Unlike other fare, prior mentioned Iron Man, or other things where its a foregone conclusion the good guy wins(McClane, Indy, Bond, Batman) you are not specifically told how they win or in what manner. Which makes the journey to that point more exciting. With HEROES s1 you're told both. How it ends(stopping Sylar) and then how he's stopped(run through by Hiro w/a sword) several episodes prior. Which makes only the journey fun and the ending anti-climatic. Whereas the prior examples have typically both. A satisfying journey to the end and more times than not a good conclusion. I'll be starting HEROES s2 in a few days time. My friends brother was in a wreck over the weekend and she had to get to Atlanta and she has 4eps left to view before I can get it. I look forward to seeing how Sylar survives since he hasn't acquired the ability to heal. At least I think I do many think S2 is a let down and that has been expressed here as well already. My friend likes it so far though. Maybe the compressed viewing makes it more enjoyable.
Sylar knows how things work, ie. the human body with his telekinetic ability he can use his telekinesis to accelerate his natural healing, or so I think this was implied.
Heroes Season 1 is one of the best 1st seasons i ever saw.. maybe on par with Galactica season 1. It's got so many WTF and WOW! moments like Ninja Hiro from the future.. (awesome ) or the Noah Bennet centered "Company Man" episode which in a mere 42 minute turned a character i was a best ambiguous about (and at times despised) into one of my favorites. All the little things in season 1 that built the mystery, expanded it a tiny fraction at a time, building to a huge climax (glimpsed at in the future episode where Sylar and Peter duke it out behind a closed door).. only to fail so miserably in the season finale. I've never felt such a huge letdown.. i understand that sometimes the creators of the show don't choose the obvious way to resolve a situation, i.e. a huge, special effects laden fight between Peter and Sylar but what they chose felt so utterly flat and unworthy that i really felt pissed off for the summer. That's how i felt and feel about season 1.. season 2 is still too fresh to talk about it in depth but suffice to say that my interest in Heroes after season 2 has greatly diminished. It will take a herculean effort by the writers and producers to re-ignite my interest and elevate it to "drop everything right here and now and watch the newest episode".
I've never seen the show on live TV. I've seen both of the first two seasons on DVD, however, and I did space them out a bit more than you did. Rushing through watching ANYTHING has the effect you're talking about. It's much more fun to see it, and actually sort of "digest" it for a while before moving on to the next part. The same thing came up in some of the recent "Watchmen" threads. I always tell people that if they're going to read it, the way to do it is to read each chapter alone... then reread it at least once, trying to catch little details you missed the first time (there are a LOT of those)... and don't read the next chapter for at LEAST a few days. "Heroes" isn't as deep or involved as Watchmen, but it clearly is meant to be in the same sort of vein. If you watch the DVD set for S2, you'll find out that they had a much deeper and more involved story that they planned to tell. Without going into too much "spoiler" stuff here, suffice it to say that the "virus" was going to NOT be stopped. But because of the writer's strike, they had to truncate the season and they changed that so that they could at least get a partial season in place.
No spoilers, guys! Let's just say that Sylar doesn't survive entirely on his own and leave it at that.
A couple of reminders: 1.) It isn't necessary to quote the entirety of one post only to reply with one, relatively short line. Not a big deal but something to keep in mind. 2.) Please avoid the multiple consecutive posts. Two, we'll probably let slide if they are distinctly different in aim. But more than that? Uh uh. Either use the Edit button or wait until someone else has posted. 3.) Be very careful about spoilers. The guidelines are pinned ot the top of each SFF forum, so there isn't really an excuse.
Am I the only one who loved the finale of the first season? There was enough sacrifice that the victory did not feel cheap, and evil was stopped in an exciting showdown. I was not as happy with what the second season did with the fallout from that episode, but there were some cool future possibilities contained in that finale.
I thought it was a good ending, yeah. I think some folks were disappointed by the fact that NYC didn't, once again, get toasted. But the idea that it was his brother who essentially gave his life (no spoilers for S2 here!) to save him... that was the big event IMHO. It was an emotional, rather than a violent, climax.
I initially was disappointed with it until I rewatched the whole season on DVD. While I'm not totally in love with the episode I do like it a whole lot.
Hmm. I saw S2, and I don't think that even happened. I don't recall any implication that Sylar has healing ability, telekinetic or otherwise (tho I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility.) So that's not a spoiler at all. I liked it!!!
Heroes has turned out to be a big let down for me and my family on par with the let down with Lost. It was great TV but then it turned into something I didn't want to see anymore. I don't think i am going to watch the next season like I stopped watching Lost. I really don't think there will be another TV show that I will watch again. I mean if a show about people with super powers can't get me to watch then I don't know what can.
How ironic! If Heroes gets half as good as Lost did in S4, I will be very very happy. Lost is one of the best TV series of all time. A worthy goal for Heroes to aspire to.

A battery is a battery, right? Well, taking a look at this meticulous AA Battery Showdown from BitBox in the UK, it is clear that there is a tremendous variability in power and battery life depending on the quality of construction and a number of other factors, but plotting cost against performance offers unexpected results.
And also take a look at the great resources Adafruit offers to help you to learn about batteries and how they function — to help you choose the right type of battery for your projects.
From the Battery Showdown:
We decided to test alkaline, lithium and zinc-chloride cells to find the best AA batteries you can buy for your money on the highstreet and online. As far as we are aware, this is the largest scale discharge test of consumer batteries that has been performed. The results surprised us a lot.
We are presenting a factual survey of batteries. The selection of batteries is not exhaustive and we have not deliberately included or excluded any brands or manufacturers. We are not recommending any manufacturer or brand based on these results and leave this up to the reader to decide which batteries to buy.

Not too surprising… nice to know that those costco specials that I've been buying in large quantity over the years have been a good deal… 😀
The current issue of Consumer Reports has an analysis of batteries too. Their data is presented in terms of capacity and price but the numbers are largely in line with the results listed above. Consumer Reports' article covers common brands in the US.
For home use, I tend to buy Kirkland (Costco) or Rayovac AA batteries. On trips with my camera, I pay a premium for higher capacity batteries to reduce the number of spares carried. At home the camera, motorized devices and handie-talkie radios get NiMH rechargeables.
This is really useful stuff to know! Thank you for posting it!

Their AA Alkaline thread dates back to 2004.

Can we get them to open source there battery tester? Do you know of an open alternatives? Great find!
I haven't heard of half of these batteries. How does Rayovac match up in the graph?
I use Lithium rechargeable batteries in my camera because you can put brand new batteries in my Canon camera and it will say "battery low".
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
