need to walk 5-10 minutes to get to the main parts of osaka but the walk really isn't bad unless its raining. the hotel itself is great
room is rather small, but the situation is similar in hotels nearby
Loved the location of this hotel and price. The room is small but all of the rooms in Japan that we've stayed at were small. Would Definitely stay here again and I am extremely picky about where I sleep.

Bowers & Wilkins Z2 iPhone 5 and AirPlay dock pictures and hands-onPocket-lint
Audiophile speaker company Bowers & Wilkins has built a reputation for high-end, top-quality iPod and iPhone docks over the years, but they have often remained just a touch out of reach for some. Either the price has steered consumers into making compromises elsewhere, or the size of the mammoth Zeppelin Air has deterred those with smaller living rooms or bedrooms.
That's where the Bowers & Wilkins Z2 comes into its own. At £329.99, it is reasonably priced for a sonically gifted solution and is far smaller than its beefier stablemate. Sleeker, in fact.
Pocket-lint was invited to the company's offices in the heart of London to give the Z2 a quick listen to and play and we are suitably impressed. Naturally, you need more than 15 minutes with any speaker system to discover all its nuances, but fed a few differently styled tracks - at varying levels of encoding quality - it coped very well indeed.
The Z2 looks much like the now discontinued Zeppelin Mini in that it is wide at the front, fairly skinny in depth and has a sloped concave top. It also features the same golfball-esque, mottled Flowport hole on the rear, which aids bass levels no end. However, with its metallic grille, it is a little more industrial and suits Apple's own devices perhaps a alightly more than before.
On the top there is simply a slot and Lightning connector for an iPhone (or iPod touch/nano) and two volume buttons. We say buttons, but they are actually capacitive so there's no need to physically press anything as such, merely to touch them.
Alongside the dimpled port, the rear is home to an Ethernet socket for wired network connection, an auxiliary input to feed the dock from a different audio source, power socket and reset button hidden inside a tricky to get to hole - which is there in case you want to force the Z2 to forget the devices it has paired with.
That's because, as well as the dock part, Bowers & Wilkins has utilised its several years of developing solutions with Apple AirPlay in them to include the technology here also. And thanks to the firm's free set-up application, it takes mere minutes to have an iOS device, PC or Mac hooked up wirelessly ready to go.
Inside, there are two 3.5-inch drive units which are capable of maintaining crisp and accurate mids and highs, while supporting the bass levels with ability that will have you perplexed by the small cabinet. We were in a listening room the size of an average living room - we would imagine - and it filled the space comfortably. And with no gaps in the soundfield as we moved around.
The Head and the Heart's Rivers and Roads - 320kbps - was deep and yet sharp throughout, and you could hear every original recording flaw in The Who's I'm Free taken from the Live at Hull 1970 album.
This is definitely a speaker dock we want to hear more of. But from the very brief moment we had with it, we can already tell that it will be a leader in its class.
The Bowers & Wilkins Z2 will be available in black from April and white from June. As previously mentioned, it will cost £329.99 in retailers such as John Lewis and the Apple Store.

McPhee Reservoir
March 1, 2015--McPhee Reservoir at risk of mussel invasion (Associated Press)
The non-native quagga and zebra mussels are wreaking havoc on reservoirs in California, Arizona, and Nevada, clogging reservoirs and substantially increasing maintenance costs. Larvae can survive in water on boats that then infect other lakes. Annual tests show McPhee has tested negative so far for the mussels. According to the Cortez Journal, concerns rose after the U.S.
February 13, 2015--Proposal for Lower Dolores criticized (Cortez Journal)
The Montezuma County commission and San Juan Basin Farm Bureau have publicly come out against a fledgling proposal to create a National Conservation Area on the Lower Dolores River. Citing concerns that the designation could result in additional water being released downstream from McPhee Reservoir, the commissioners voted 3-0 to oppose any such plan.
January 14, 2015--McPhee at risk for invasive species (Dolores Star)
Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the U.S. Forest Service, the Dolores Water Conservancy District, and local municipalities all have a common enemy - the invasive zebra and quagga mussel species.
January 3, 2015--McPhee management comes with a price (Cortez Journal)
The costs of maintaining recreation facilities at McPhee reservoir are significant, a burden Montezuma County would inherit if it gains ownership, according to a report from the U.S. Forest Service.
Cortez: McPhee Reservoir
Montezuma County is interested in taking over recreation management of McPhee Reservoir. Frustrated by the lack of services, County Commissioners urged San Juan National Forest supervisor Kara Chadwick to convey land and management of three key facilities (McPhee boat ramp, House Creek, and Sage Hen areas) of the reservoir. "In the last 15 years, services have digressed at the lake to near nothing, so it behooves us to look at taking over management," said Commissioner Keenan Ertel.
December 23, 2014--What will be the fate of McPhee Reservoir? (Durango Herald)
Montezuma County pushed to take over recreation management of McPhee Reservoir during a meeting with top forest officials Friday in Durango.
October 29, 2014--First kokanee spawning at Nighthorse (Durango Herald)
From a platform tethered 100 feet offshore, members of a Colorado Parks and Wildlife team spawned kokanee salmon in Lake Nighthorse for the first time. Members of this first graduating class of kokanee were stocked as fingerlings in 2010. Stocking 75,000 kokanee each year since means spawning will occur annually.
August 28, 2014--Reservoir would destroy habitat of 2 rare plants (Cortez Journal)
Two rare plants discovered in Lone Mesa State Park are in the way of a proposed $1.3 billion hydro-electric power plant in the Plateau Creek drainage, a tributary of McPhee Reservoir. Unique shale barrens in the south portion of Lone Mesa State Park are home to the rare Lone Mesa snake weed and Mancos shale packera.
August 14, 2014--McPhee water available for hemp (Dolores Star)
The disconnect between Colorado legalizing marijuana and U.S. drug laws forbidding it continues to widen, including for irrigation uses from federally built reservoirs. A recent policy from the U.S.
August 13, 2014--Colorado's Water Plan (KRCC)
It's been over a year since Governor Hickenlooper issued an executive order calling for the creation of a state water plan. It won't be a legal document, but the plan is expected to make recommendations that will guide future water planning and funding decisions. The process is well underway, with a deadline to deliver a draft plan by this December.

Steve Beshear, Mayor Jim Gray and officials from Lexington Center on Wednesday announced a renovation plan that will separate the 37-year-old home of Kentucky men's basketball from the adjoining convention center, which will be expanded 100,000 square feet.

I seems for the the last 2 years it has always come down to this, this is why I do not like joining a board. I and now going through loss #6, I had my sonogram this mornig to check for placement and its ectopic. Tomorrow I will be getting my methrotrexate shot to end this. It seems as if its just not in the cards for me right now to have another baby. I said if I lost this one this would be it, so Im not going to rush into anything. I cant get pregnant for 3-4 months after the shot anyway, Im just going to do some thinking to see where do I go from here. My Re thinks he fixed my problems and that now Im just having bad luck, but really how much should one person take. How many losses do it take to finally say ok Im comfortable with finally moving on. All my family and friends are telling me to be happy with the 4 I have, but my arms still yearn for one more. Sometimes I just want off of this merry go round. Anyway I wish all of you the best. Dont turn off yall siggys.
The Hard Part
my heart is breaking for you right now, hon i am so sorry you are going through this. i know when i went through my loss (when I had 4 children already) it really hurt a lot when people said, "just be glad for the 4 you have". well, of course i was glad for my 4 beautiful children but that didn't mean i wasn't mourning the loss of another an longing so much to hold another..... much love to you, babe and good luck in the future!
i am so sorry for your loss. of course the 4 wonderful children you have do not make these losses any easier! praying for you...
Oh Renea, I am so heartbroken for you. Praying for you that all goes well with the shot and that one day, you WILL be carrying a sticky bean through 9 mths so that you'll have a healthy baby in your arms. *hugehugs*
Renea, I can't even express how sad I am to read this. I'm so very very sorry. You are in my heart. :bigarmhug:
I am so very sorry.
I'm so sorry! You and your family are in my thoughts!
:bigarmhug: You are in my every T&P. I'm so sorry and this just seems downright unfair. Your dream will come, and I will pray for you until that day!!!!
Stay strong, and although having four already no way makes this easier, I hope you find comfort in their laughter!
Thinking of you, so sorry for your loss.
Thinking of you and your family. I'm so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope that you get a sticky BFP as soon as your heart is ready again. There is no replacement for wanting a child in your arms and we all know how much that means. I hope you can find comfort somewhere right now. We will all be thinking of you.
I'm just sick reading this, Renea. So sorry. T&P's coming your way.
DEvastated to read this.
I am so sorry.
I'll pm you when I get back from work.
Thinking of you.
Oh my gosh, I hurt so much for you right now Renae!
I'm sorry this wasn't it for you.
Renea, I'm so sorry for your loss...:confused: Please take care of yourself.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
oh Renea :bigarmhug: I am soooo so very sorry to hear this news... T&P's are going your way....
I'm so sorry Renea. I was really hoping this would be it for you. :bigarmhug:
Oh Renea, I'm so very sorry that this is happening to you again. It just seems so unfair that all this pain has been piled on you. I'm glad you are taking some time to think before making any final decisions, and I'm praying that you are going to get that last sticky bean soon.
I am so so so sad to hear this. I wish people wouldn't tell you to just be happy with the ones you have. They said that to me when I had my loss, and it really hurt. Every pregnancy is a miracle, and every woman longs to hold that baby whether they have other children already or not. I'm sending prayers and hugs your way.
I'm so sorry to hear this Renea, I know you've been trying for so long!
Thanks everyone for all yall susport and warm words. I wish you all success in your trying journey. And I will continue to stalk all of you!!!!!!!!!!!! Well that do sound bad. Well I will continue to Lurk on all of yall boards.
Thinking of you! :bigarmhug: I'm so sorry sweetheart!

Unmistaken Childis a 2008 independent documentary film, which follows a Tibetan Buddhist monk's search for the reincarnation of his beloved teacher, the world-renowned lama (master teacher) Geshe Lama Konchog. The filming, which began in October 2001, spans a time frame of five and a half years. It follows the deceased lama's closest disciple — a modest young monk named Tenzin Zopa, who speaks English well — as he seeks to find the child who is his master's reincarnation.
Because Tenzin is only a humble monk, he questions his ability to accurately find and recognize the reincarnation of an enlightened master. He is daunted by the difficulty of the task, for which he alone seems responsible.
Following a combination of prayer, intuition, and various forms of divination, Tenzin travels to the tiny villages of the remote Tsum Valley on the Nepal–Tibet border, and checks many families and many children. He seeks to find a young boy of the right age who responds emotionally to one of his former master's possessions. Still many questions would remain, and many tests and trials must be met before the existence of a Rinpoche — a reincarnated Tibetan master — could be confirmed. And even beyond the question of the confirmation of a reincarnation is the emotional toll involved in removing a small child from his loving parents and familiar village.
The film was created, directed, and written by Israeli filmmaker Nati Baratz. He and his wife had attended a lecture given by Tenzin Zopa, who at the end asked everyone to pray for the location of the reincarnation of Geshe Lama Konchog, his recently deceased teacher.
"Tenzin really touched me in a profound way," says Baratz. "He has a huge heart, and he's very smart. And when I heard that he's looking for the reincarnation of his master, I thought this is a movie I must make."[1]
Release, broadcast, and DVD[edit]
Unmistaken Child was first screened at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 8, 2008. Festival screenings in Berlin, San Francisco, and other festivals around the world followed. The film opened in limited theatrical release in the U.S. in June 2009, and subsequently in limited theatrical release around the world.
Unmistaken Child was selected for and aired on the award-winning PBS series Independent Lens in April 2010. Oscilloscope Laboratories published the film on DVD.

McKechnie Field Details
The Pirates have been training in Bradenton and playing games at McKechnie Park for 34 years. Though there has been baseball played at McKechnie Field since 1923, it's actually one of the newer stadiums in Florida spring training, as the facility was completely rebuilt in 1993. It's built in a Florida Spanish Mission style, with white stucco on the main grandstand. The design is like most spring-training facilities: there are box seats on the field side of a wide concourse, and bleacher seats on the other side of the concourse. The Pirates sell box, reserved bleachers, and general-admission seats. The reserved bleachers seats are shaded, which is an important consideration for all games.

Marie writes: If I have a favorite festival, it's SXSW and which is actually a convergence of film, music and emerging technologies. However it's the festival's penchant for screening "quirky" Indie movies which really sets my heart pounding and in anticipation of seeing the next Wes Anderson or Charlie Kaufman. So from now until March, I'll be tracking down the best with the zeal of a Jack Russell terrier! Especially since learning that Joss Whedon's modern B/W take on Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing" is set to screen at SXSW 2013 in advance of its June 21st US release date; they'll cut an official trailer soon, rubbing hands together!
Ben Affleck's "Argo" (2012) is a unique specimen. On the one hand, it is an exciting, suspenseful rescue story. It is his best film, though as a central character he seems to keep directing himself as a mostly expressionless central character. It is, without doubt, thrilling from start to finish. On the other hand, it is a crass cheerleading of ethnocentrism, recalling Menahem Golan's "Delta Force" (1986). As I watched "Argo," part of me was absorbed in the suspense, as though I was wide eyed, with my hand covering my open mouth. Another part of me was thinking that the timing of its release was a bit too perfect, as though I was scratching my head, thinking "Seriously? You're stooping that low?" Still, the film seems to even take that point as a subtle comment about global cinema culture.

I searched "vegan" and found you!
I've been a vegetarian for almost 4 years and have been a vegan off n on throughout that time. I don't eat dairy (except for once in a blue moon) but do eat eggs.
I like where I am right now...although I would love to eat more raw/live foods.
Is love to newer other like minded people, specifically other moms with children my son's age.
I'll just play that by ear. I'm up for anything just depends on when it is.

The hotel was easy to find. Service was good. The room was nice and clean for a one night stay. The iron in the room was broke while I was using it, luckily the water didn't stain my pants, and it was replaced quickly. The neighborhood stores were a little shady, but overall the stay was good.

Does this person I marry become an instant citizen or what right does this person have in California?
Immigration Attorney
I assume that you are a US citizen. Your spouse would not automatically become a US citizen just because you get married. First s/he needs to get permanent residence (green card), and then s/he can apply for citizenship after a few years.
There are a couple of steps to permanent residence, and many forms to be completed. The process takes about 6-12 months, and varies by local office processing times.

Newest Information & special notices.
you get problems with the email link at the top not working, a backup
Blogs and social media are now the main means used for spreading marketing hype and lies.
Many sites that seem to offer helpful advice are just a mechanism to make cash from ill and gullible people. Health advisory web sites are frequently run by people with no training in health care. Homesteader and similar sites repeat information from out-of-date books resulting in dangerous advice. Some so called 'doctors' have realised they can make lots of money by selling quack products and services. If you see the title 'Dr'. beware, it is often used to mislead people into thinking they are medical doctors when they are not.
In the USA many blog operators claim to be Christians, yet they do not care if they sell dangerous products or refer people to sellers of quack cures. Beware of sites making claims about essential oils and the Bible. In Biblical times distilled essential oils were not available. Beware of those constantly using the word 'God' in their messages, this is a classic selling technique used by con artists to capture the hearts of Christians.
July 2016: Article about blog sites that link to Amazon suppliers some of which sell dangerous essential oils.
April 20016: An article of critical importance to UK and USA readers who detest animal testing of products.
18th. Update on the file 'Google are pirates' and the new court judgment-updated again July 2016.
Feb. 2016: For UK readers; an article on how the EU has affected the essential oils trades.
Dec 2015: Readers may wish to know that the organizer of the oil conference 2015 which I review on the articles page, has threatened to: "get google to take my site down; legal action over breach of copyright; my claims on their lack of evidence over medicinal uses are false", etc. My server has refused to remove the article because it legal and "fair comment". The files will remain as examples of people being misled about what essential oils can do, as well as major safety errors being widely disseminated via blogs and other means.
Here is a new review of another USA web site giving wrong information gleaned from suspect sources.
Nov. 2015: A warning over an article on the internal use of lemongrass carried by ehow.com
Sept. 2015: This month at the age of 70 all sales of my publications and courses have ceased. This web site will remain as an information resource and new info will be added as and when I feel it necessary. The peddlers of trash in this trade can't breath a sigh of relief just yet! Thank you for the support from my thousands of readers around the world over the last 25 years. Martin.
August 2015: New article for UK readers. Information on the raindrop therapy scene here.
July 2015: The full review of the recent Essential Oils Revolution online conference. I was sent around 65 files of the speakers by someone who was concerned at the contents. They were right,some of it is dangerous quack medicine. What most of the subscribers probably did not know was the majority of the speakers are doTerra essential oils agents. They make claims which it would be illegal for that company to make following their warnings by the FDA. They also give masses of wrong information gleaned from blog sites.
Two separate reviews from the Essential Oils Revolution online conference. These are of Dr J. Axe, looks like we have a clone of Gary Young in our midst!!
As promised, new articles as I think necessary. This one is about how sites and blogs masquerading as consumer advice sites, are giving wrong and dangerous information on essential oils.
May 2015: Added a historical book on massage as a free download. Also see 'pubications' tab.
Dec. 2014: Article about highly misleading and dangerous information on a web site linked to by suppliers.
Sept. 2014: Article about the claims made on blogs over Frankincense oil for cancers.
August 2014: A new article on the lies of Gary Young over his trip to Somalia by Mynou De Mey.
See also this review of Young Living and their fake Christian ethics. Direct link

Essentials' A Contemporary Guide to the
May 2014: I have removed all articles in .html format and replaced them with .pdf files. It became apparent that several blog owners have been copying and pasting bits out of my articles to make it appear like their own investigations. Also, complete articles have appeared on web sites without acknowledging the source. Now copying and pasting cannot be easily done.
Added some old articles not posted here before. Some trade history for new people and to correct some of the trash being posted on blogs. That includes people who have been saying that "Martin Watt is just posting work done by his father". My Father was an engineer not an essential oils writer. Yes there are a lot of people around who are too lazy to learn the truth and prefer fantasies and rumours on blog sites.
Feb. 2014: A tribute to an old friend Bernie Hephrun who some of my readers may know.
Jan. 2014: Major update to the article state of the trade 2014 including a new page on the organisations validating training courses.
A major update to the list of hyped oils. Made necessary by the huge increase in aromatherapy oil sellers promoting these oils along with outrageous medicinal claims. Some of these suppliers are being recommended by leading aromatherapy 'names'.
Dec. 2013: A major update about aromatherapy blogs and those who run them.
Oct. 2013: At last some activity in the USA against illegal medicinal claims of multi level oil sellers. Some in the aromatherapy trade have realised these people could put everyone out of business. Click here to see details of a petition/complaint sent to the FDA. Also see: aromatherapyunited.wordpress.com/
August 2013: In the book reviews section is a review of the dreadful book on chemistry written by David Stewart - a Young Living supporter who clearly knows next to nothing on the subject and has simply parroted the hype and garbage from that organisation.
April 2013: I have just found out that our book Frankincense & Myrrh is now available in kindle format - use a search engine as it's not available here.
Feb. 2013: Added the archives from the IDMA newsgroup commencing in 1998. Lots of history of the trade here for those interested.
Nov. 2012: Consumer alert. Beware of claims made for oils from this site:
venkatramna-perfumers.com They are selling some extremely dangerous oils such as distilled mustard seed, while making medicinal claims which would harm you if you believed them. This company also do not know the difference between amber oil and ambergris oil. They have started spamming the world with their marketing but their knowledge base is suspect.
Beware of assuming all members of the Natural Perfumers Guild http://naturalperfumers.com/ are credible or honest traders, several are not. http://www.profumo.it they trade in unethical and possibly illegal animal extracts. There is also evidence that some teachers in this group buy and sell synthetic fragrance blends as the real thing. This is mainly due to many of their members not being the experts which their publicity suggests.
Yahoo and other newsgroups: Please beware of assuming that people on these groups are experts in the subjects they give advice on. Some are, but very few. Many of these newsgroups are created just to enable the 'owners' to market their products. Nothing wrong with that in theory, but a lot wrong when people who have no training in medicine, herbs, oils or much else, start giving health advice. I have been horrified at some of the dangerous advice on essential oils and herbs given on some of these groups. Many of these groups are 'moderated' by the owners who edit posts to inhibit freedom of expression, or deter members from
While many Americans seem to think their Constitution gives them freedom of speech, this does not extend to companies, organisations and individuals. Most of these groups are 'private' and the group owners or moderators can censor anything they dislike, or which could expose their friends to probing of their integrity. This allows con artists free reign and stops them being exposed to scrutiny. That is something desperately needed in a trade packed to bursting with such people. It also inhibits an individual or group of people from criticism of inaccurate, misleading, illegal and dangerous information on web sites.
An increasing concern is the growth in pseudo scientific web sites providing misleading safety data on chemicals and the products they occur in. Beware if you find a site that classifies a chemical as "dangerous", but the site does not say in what circumstances and volumes. The fact a chemical may have proven toxic if consumed to excess, does not mean that chemical is always dangerous in any product it is used in.
Quiet a number of these so called "dangerous" chemicals (to dumb scientists)are natural constituents of the plants in our everyday foods, indeed some are considered to have positive health effects such as anti oxidants, anti cancer, etc.
These consumer advice websites often try to declare "green credentials" giving them an air of authority. If someone cannot provide exact information on volumes of a chemical required to cause problems, and in what circumstances of use, then the information they give is all but worthless.


text:
Since 1840, when Charles Francis Adams first published his grandmother's letters, the story of John and Abigail Adams has often been told. Over the last several generations, biographies of both have rapidly multiplied and, in most of these works, assessments have been offered of their marriage, usually benign (as in David McCullough's John Adams), rarely critical (as in Paul Nagel's Descent from Glory). Nonetheless, when last year Edith B. Gelles published Abigail & John: Portrait of a Marriage, she was justified in saying that hers was "the first double biography of Abigail and John Adams." Now immediately we have a second, written by a very practiced and able biographer, in a book evidently in process before Gelles's appeared.
Portraying marriages is not easy work, because most of what matters about them is intimate and often concealed, not least by the husband from the wife and vice versa. We have all known couples who seemed content but who, one drastic day, split violently apart and thereafter tumbled out confessions of sustained unhappiness, frequent betrayals, and unexpected longings to whichever friend or therapist proved patient enough to listen. Though there is every reason to believe that secrets and lies were scarce in the Adams marriage, nonetheless what is known about it is mainly what each was prepared to let the other know. This is so because, as Joseph Ellis rightly observes, our knowledge of the marriage mostly comes from John and Abigail's letters to one another when separated by the demands of his political life. Such distance created strain, difficult moments when he failed to write, when she was bitter and lonely, and when each failed to imagine what the other was experiencing. It also created pleasure, glad moments when each shared what the other could not experience.
An especial problem in describing the Adams marriage is the inequality of evidence. For John Adams, there are many thousands of letters, a diary and autobiography, innumerable public and legal papers, not to mention a myriad of contemporary accounts of him. For Abigail, we have more letters than is usual for a woman of her time as well as some legal documents, but only a very brief diary and little in which she reflected on her experience. It would probably be a grave underestimate to assert that, for every Abigail document, we have twenty for John. So the acid test for any double biographer of the Adamses is how well he or she handles this disparity, since it will not do to permit either Adams to dominate the story. (At least, it will not do if gender equality is thought to be a literary obligation, as well as a civic ethic.) Fundamentally, this means John's story needs to be shrunk down to match the scale of Abigail's, not because she is the lesser, but because there is less available to make her known. Is this possible?
Evidently not. On balance, Edith Gelles has come close to achieving the impossible, mostly because her earlier writing was about Abigail and, as a historian of women, she is sensitive to the history of domesticity and family life, which framed most of Abigail's existence. Joseph Ellis, by comparison, is by long and distinguished training a historian of early American politics and politicians. He shows only a passing and dutiful interest in how a drawing room might have looked, how a mother handled servants, or what childbirth felt like, but is much more absorbed by the nuances of the Treaty of Paris and the spitefulness of Alexander Hamilton. For the most part, then, First Family: Abigail & John Adams is a book about John Adams, in which Abigail Adams makes sustained appearances.
Ellis is a very gifted writer, often a shrewd psychologist, and has the self-confidence to offer refreshingly brisk and persuasive judgments. On occasion, usually when a minor character is being described, he can be a little reckless and wander beyond strict evidence, because tempted by the eye-catching phrase. (Calling their daughter-in-law Louisa Catherine Adams "a delicate orchid" prone to collapsing into "heaps of sobbing insecurity" is one instance.) On the whole, Ellis is a partisan of the Adams pair and, when he can, gives them the benefit of the doubt. For instance, his account of the death of their alcoholic rake of a son, Charles, ends on a kindly note about Abigail's grief and quietly ignores the bleak fact that his parents refused to allow Charles to be buried in the family vault in Quincy. Such a partisanship occasionally strays into hyperbole, though admittedly the book's opening gambit -- "some would say [the Adamses are] the premier husband-and-wife team in all American history" -- is coy. The claims that John Adams was "one of the master letter writers" of his age and that there was "a seamless symmetry between them that made conflicting convictions virtually impossible" is, however, far from coy and seem doubtful, an unnecessary gilding of the lily. Still, Ellis's partisanship is not relentless, a fact which -- along with his urbane command of late eighteenth-century politics -- comfortably saves his book from the peril of becoming a discursive Hallmark card, sent to mark the Adamses' umpteenth wedding anniversary. He is, for example, scathing about John in the immediate aftermath of the presidency, when he is described as a loopy "one-man bonfire of vanities," and Ellis recognizes that the extended Adams family was sometimes "dysfunctional," with sufficient lost souls to cast a play by Eugene O'Neill.
So, the question necessarily arises: if a reader goes into a bookshop and sees Gelles and Ellis side by side on a table, which is the better choice? Their dust jackets are virtually identical, so aesthetics do not help, except that Ellis has the larger and more elegant typeface. On the whole, it strikes me as a matter of taste. If you care more for Abigail and precise scholarship, Gelles is probably the better choice. If you care more for John and literary verve, pick up a copy of Ellis. Either or both would serve you well.

Best Ever Chocolate Zucchini Cake
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 1 hr 15 mins
I've been making this recipe for ions now. It was a collaboration between myself and a friend about 25 years ago. I haven't found one I like better. I hope you will agree. These loaves also freeze very well. Note: You could try using applesauce for some or all of the oil in order to reduce the fat content. However....I haven't tried it myself.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup oil
- 3 teaspoons maple extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups zucchini, grated with seeds removed
- 3 cups flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup nuts, chopped
- 1 cup raisins
- Preheat oven to 325*.
- In a large bowl mix together eggs, both sugars, oil and both extracts.
- Stir in grated zucchini. Set aside.
- In another bowl mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder.
- Add to the zucchini mixture, mixing well.
- Fold in nuts and raisins.
- Pour into greased loaf pans.
- Bake for approximately 75 minutes or until tested done with a toothpick.

Hi Diana,
Unfortunately this didn't turn out for us. We cooked it for 75 mins but this was too long. We have a NEF oven which is true to the correct temp. (AU 165 C) If you have a good oven it will only take 65 mins. Our cake was crusty on the outside. Nice but too dry.
O my goodness this chocolate cake is to die for. Ok, so I messed up a little because I used coarse salt instead of fine, but it still has a great flavour. I replaced the raisins with chocolate chips and took away 1/4 cup of white sugar in favour of a bit more cocoa powder because I looooove chocolate. For my nuts I used a combination of hazelnuts, almonds, and coconut. Will definitely try again!
Made this last night because a neighbor keeps giving my zucchini's and they are all like 3 lbs each so I have been making everything I can but I never make a cake so I thought I'd give it a try.
The only changes I made were with the cocoa which I used Dark cocoa and I didn't have maple extract so I used Almond as well as Almond nuts. I did sprinkle some powder sugar on top. It was very good, and my husband liked it so much I had to stop him for eating the entire thing. Thanks for sharing!
