Above, perhaps my most-favorite photo ever of Esther, which is really saying something considering the THOUSANDS that I've actually seen of her, from all over the world. But despite the fact that you can't actually see it here, trust me, her amazing smile and inner and external beauty are there. This photo is an even more amazing achievement when you know the backstory of what it took for Esther to get to the top of the mountain, since it's NOT for the faint of heart. Next time you see her, ask her about that! Morro Dois Irmãos, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on her birthday, July 10, 2015. That's the Christ The Redeemer statue atop Mount Corcovado way out in the horizon on the top of another mountain, to the left of her head. To the right is the world famous beach of Ipanema and to the left is the equally famous beach of Copacabana. In case you forgot what the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio looks like, up close, plus the Amazon area of Brazil that Esther grew up near in Manaus, here's another Brazilian beauty to connect-the-dots for you: Gisele Bündchen, aka @Gisele.
Today is the day. Today is a celebration. Today is my day. Today, I hiked, I photographed, and I explored. Today I choose to love. Today I'm happy. Today I'm blessed. Today is my birthday. Today is a special day for you and me. #birthdaygirl #birthday #birthdaymonth #brazil #braziltrip #rio #theview #livingthelife #lifeisgood #morro #rio #praia #travel #miami #miamigirl #luckygirl #loveisintheair #justdoit #artist #photographer #photography #taiwan #beautiful #vacation #viajar #instagood #smile #dreambig #wishes #true

Tales of the Ex @ RomanceClass -
We act like nothing happened
I went out with my ex for 6 months. And recently I done something really big for his bday and he got upset with me. Since he hurt my feelings I broke up with him. It was on impulse and out of the moment, not to mention that I had to of my friends telling me to do it. The only doctore love is god. Maybe there advice was relevant for their situations but unfornately now I no it was not for me. Now I regret it. We act like nothing happened and I can't just stand being friends! So I confronted him. However, we are still in the area of fixing it. He says that he sees us going back out but I need to know. Sometimes I feel impatient but I need to let him have his space. Girls if you are in the same boat don't just take any advice from anyone. Know that you are the only one who has the feelings and can decide for yourself. Every guy is different so the outcome is formed from the way you present the problem and his personality and feelings at the time. Don't give up but don't let your hopes and feelings get toiled with. Do what you feel is right AFTER thinking about it for a little bit. And think about it by yourself. DOES THE RELATIONSHIP HAVE MORE UPS THEN DOWNS OR IS it a Loose-win situation, you loose the guy you like but know that is was for the better and there is more fish in the see. Step back and take a look at the relationship and evaluate the best decision for YOU. However, be thinking of his feelings. And most of all BE THE BIGGER PERSON!

Little proof that binge drinking while pregnant harms foetusNovember 14th, 2007 - 2:21 pm ICT by admin
Washington, Nov 14 (ANI): A new study has found a little substantive evidence that binge drinking while pregnant seriously harms the developing foetus.
Heavy drinking throughout pregnancy has been consistently linked to birth defects and subsequent neurological problems.
However, it is not known what impact binge drinking, in the absence of regular heavy drinking, might have.
Researchers said that this drinking pattern is becoming increasingly common, particularly among women.
The results are based on a comprehensive review of published research on binge drinking and women who were either pregnant or trying to conceive.
Binge drinking was taken to mean downing five or more alcoholic drinks in one go, equivalent to 60 g of alcohol or 7.5 units.
The period under review spanned 35 years from 1970 to 2005, and unearthed more than 3500 articles, which were narrowed down to 14 pieces of relevant research.
The authors observed some methodological flaws in the 14 studies, although they were all assessed as being of good quality.
The findings indicated that there was little substantive evidence that binge drinking caused a range of problems, including miscarriage, stillbirth, abnormal birth weight or birth defects, such as foetal alcohol syndrome.
However, there was some suggestion that it might impair normal neurodevelopment, although the effects were generally quite small, the authors said.
These included "disinhibited behaviour," reduced verbal IQ, an increased tendency towards delinquent behaviour, learning problems and poorer academic performance.
For example, they point out that the timing of binge drinking might be important, and that there may be more impact during the first 13 weeks of pregnancy.
"This systematic review found no convincing evidence of adverse effects of prenatal binge drinking, except possibly on neurodevelopmental outcomes," the authors said.
They suggested that further research is required, but in the meantime it might be wise to advise women to avoid binge drinking during pregnancy, just in case.
"When pregnant women report isolated episodes of binge drinking in the absence of a consistently high daily alcohol intake, as is often the case, it is important to avoid inducing unnecessary anxiety, as, at present, the evidence of risk seems minimal," they said.
The study is published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. (ANI)

Constant de Rebecque, Benjamin
Constant de Rebecque, Benjamin
BORN 23 Oct 1767, Lausanne - DIED 17 Dec 1830, Paris
REAL NAME Rebecque, Benjamin Constant de
GRAVE LOCATION Paris: Pčre Lachaise, Rue du Repos 16 (division 29, 1re ligne, S, 31)
Benjamin Constant was educated privately and at the University of Erlangen. Between 1780 and 1785 he lived in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Holland and England. From 1788 until 1794 he was employed at the court of Brunswick. In 1789 he married Minna von Cramm, but after he met Charlotte de Hardenberg in 1793 he seperated from Minna.
In 1794 he met Germaine de Staël in Lausanne. They conducted an affair for sixteen years and corraborated intellectually. In 1800 he developed a passion for Anna Lindsay, but their liaison ended in 1801. In 1803 he considered marrying Amélie Fabri, but in the same year he travelled to Germany with Germaine. In 1804 he met Goethe and Schiller and in the same year Germaine refused to marry him. His passion for Anna Lindsay returned and at the same time he thought of marrying Charlotte de Hardenberg. In 1805 his close friend Julie Talma died and after quarrels with Germaine in 1807 he married Charlotte secretly in 1808. In 1811 he finally said goodbye to Germaine.
After the fall of Napoleon in 1814 he returned to Paris and wrote violent articles against the emperor. When Napoleon returned they had a talk and he entered into the service of the emperor. Constant was instrumental in the drafting of the "Acte Additional" that was to transform Napoleon's empire into a constitutional monarchy. Constant adapted the constitution that had been accepted by Louis XVIII and modified it. Napoleon accepted in on 24 Apr 1815 as an addition to the existing laws. In a plebiscite it was approved and on 1 Jun 1815 it became formal law.
After Napoleon's second abdication a few weeks later Constant went to London, where he published his novel "Adolphe". He was holding on to his liberal views and in September 1816 he returned to Paris with Charlotte after he had apologized to Louis XVIII. He worked as a journalist until his death in 1830 and was deputy for Sarthe (1819-1822) and Strassbourg (1827-1830).

13-Foot Mech Suit You Can Control With Your iPhone
Who doesn't want their own mech suit?! You'd have to be some heartless person if you think that climbing into a giant machine you can control doesn't look like an insane amount of fun. Have you not seen every other sci-fi movie? If you're in the club with us normal people, you're gonna love this...
Last week, Suidobashi Heavy Industries unveiled the Kuratas, a 13-foot, 4.4-ton mech suit! The customizable mech suit looks mean, and all sorts of deadly, and with a $1.35 million price tag ya kinda wish it was. But alas, it shoots BBs and launches water bottles instead of rockets. Then again, if you're already dropping a couple million dollars on something like this, you probably know a guy who can outfit it with the real artillery... shhhh, your secret is safe with me.
I'd be happy with just being able to climb aboard a giant robot and move a few feet. But in the video below, we see the diesel engine powered mech suit zipping around the streets of Japan at 10 kilometers per hour. On top of that, you can control the Kuratas remotely, via a 3G network. In some sick twist, you can activate the twin BB gatling guns by simply smiling. The video directly below shows the Kuratas in action and a Natalie Portman-lookin' Japanese pilot smiling her enemies down. The video below that is a live demonstration of the Kuratas.

Official Texas Historical Markers
Texas historical markers commemorate diverse topics — from the history and architecture of houses, commercial and public buildings, religious congregations and events that changed the course of local and state history, to individuals who have made lasting contributions to the state, community organizations and businesses, churches, and many more. Age, significance and architectural requirements govern the eligibility of topics and sites when applying for either a subject marker. T
he historical markers listed below were issued by the state to Catholic organizations in the Diocese of Corpus Christi.
Brooks County Historical Marker
Local geographic names show that the Catholic faith arrived here before 1800. This area was in the Diocese of Monterrey until the Diocese of Texas was formed in 1847. In the new Diocese it was in the Brownsville Parish until transferred to San Diego in 1866. Fathers Claude Jaillet (1843-1929) and Peter Bard (1846-1920) of San Diego traveled this area for about 40 years, ministering on the scattered ranches. In 1904-05 the Mission of San Ysidro (Saint Isidore) was built in Falfurrias. The Rt. Rev. Paul Joseph Nussbaum, first Bishop of Corpus Christi Diocese, erected the Parish of Saint Isidore in 1914. The Chapel of Saints Peter and Paul was built nearby in 1916 for English-speaking communicants. In 1925 the mission was merged with Saint Isidore to form Sacred Heart Church, which is now on Garza Street and renamed Our Lady of Guadalupe. In Brooks County there are also the Church of Saint Anne at Encino and other Catholic facilities and organizations. The school of the Ursuline Sisters prospered for 38 years before closing its doors in 1965. Some mainstays of the church have been Lino Trevino (1857-1935), Charles Premont (1867-1941), J.J. Allan (1871-1943), Mrs. J.T. Maupin (1875-1967), and Mrs. R.E. McBryde (1879-1966).

James Power, Empresario, Refugio Historical Marker
Born in Ireland, Colonial James Power came to New Orleans in 1809 and to Texas in 1823. With fellow Irish Empresario James Hewetson (1796-1870), he was awarded contracts to settle Irish Catholic and Mexican families between the Guadalupe and Lavaca Rivers. Their territory was extended in 1830 to the Nueces. Power went to Ireland to recruit colonists. On the return voyage sickness and shipwreck tragically reduced their numbers. In 1835 he urged his colonist to garrison Goliad, and battled staunchly against hostile Indians. He was a fine diplomat and helped secure Indian neutrality during the Texas Revolution. A close friend General Sam Houston, Power signed both the the Texas Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. In 1838 he was commissioned to conclude a treaty with the Lipan Indians. In 1842 he was briefly imprisoned by a Mexican invasion force. He represented Refugio in the Republic of Texas Senate and at the Annexation Convention of 1845. Power married twice, to Dolores (d. 1836) and later Tomasa Portilla, Spanish-born daughters of Empresario Felipe Portilla, and had seven children. He died at Live Oak Point, his principal home, in 1852, and was reintered at Mount Calvary Cemetery, Refugio, about 1872.

John Dunn Jr. Homesite Historical Marker
John Dunn, Sr., (1803-1889) immigrated to the United States from Ireland in 1851. He began acquiring large amounts of property in Nueces County, including this site which he purchased in 1868 from Jonas Pickles. This section of his landholdings was inherited by his youngest son, John Dunn, Jr. (1853-1941). Dunn, Jr., began working as a young boy herding sheep for his father. He received most of his schooling in Father Gonnard's School for Boys in Corpus Christi. As a young man, Dunn participated in posses that captured Mexican raiders and horse rustlers. He eventually acquired nearly 12,000 acres of ranchland and was known throughout the Corpus Christi area for his philanthropic land donations, particularly to the Roman Catholic Church. The one story section of this home was built by Dunn in 1889 in anticipation of his marriage to Mary Tom (1856-1937). The home served as headquarters for Dunn's ranching operations and was enlarged as his family grew. Located on land that has been in the Dunn family since 1868, the homesite stands as a reminder of early Nueces County settlement. (1985)

Moravian Club of Nueces County Historical Marker
An organization vital to the preservation of the area's rich heritage, the Moravian Club of Nueces County first formed to build and maintain a meeting hall for the many settlers of Czech descent, primarily Moravian, who migrated to southwestern Nueces County. Stanley L. Kostoryz (Stanislav Kostohryz), who in 1904 sold his Czech-language newspaper in Nebraska and resettled near Corpus Christi, led the migration. He purchased property which he renamed Bohemian Colony Lands, advertising it in Czech-language newspapers throughout the United States. Settlers soon arrived, coming mostly from Czech communities in central Texas in pursuit of affordable farmland. The new community became known as Kostoryz.
In 1923, the Moravian Club of Nueces County, originally named the Moravian Recreational Lodge of Nueces County, formed to meet the need for a social facility in the growing settlement. Members built the first Moravian Hall in 1924, replaced with a larger structure in 1939 financed by the KJT (Katolická Jednota Texaská), a Catholic Czech fraternity. After the U.S. Navy bought land, then including the second hall, for Cabaniss Air Field, members built a third hall (1941). The various club halls served as centers for social and church activities, including dances, informal gatherings after Sunday mass, Kostoryz School programs, meetings for Czech organization and other events. Additionally, form the 1940s until the 1960s, the club hosted semi-pro baseball games in a field behind its main hall. Additional club activities focused on the promotion of Christianity, as well as Czech history and music. Today, the Moravian Club of Nueces County continues to maintain the Moravian Hall, celebrating the area's cultural heritage.

Old Saint Patrick Historical Marker
St. Patrick's parish included only 19 families when the Rev. Bernard O'Reilly (1821-75) became first resident pastor in 1853. He supervised construction of Corpus Christi's first Catholic Church. The adobe building stood on Tancahua Street property donated by Henry L. Kinney. In 1880 construction was begun on a larger building, located at the same site but facing Karankawa Street. Designed by architect Charles Carroll, a parish member who donated his services, the second St. Patrick's was a frame structure with two towers. Bells for the church were given by Mifflin Kenedy, whose wife was a parishioner. Dedicated in November 1882, the church soon became a Corpus Christi landmark. For many years, services were held in both English and Spanish. St. Patrick's was designated a cathedral March 23, 1912, during the pastorate of the Rev. Claude Jaillet (1843-1929), who served there for 30 years. Growth of the congregation and fire damage to the frame church in 1938 prompted construction of the present Corpus Christi Cathedral. Erected on property donated by the John Kenedy family, the Spanish Colonial style edifice was dedicated July 17, 1940. The old frame structure was dismantled in 1951 and used in building Our Lady Star of the Sea Church on East Causeway Blvd. (1976)

Our Lady of Refuge, Refugio Historical Marker
This Church traces its history to Nuestra Senora del Refugio (our Lady of Refuge), a Spanish mission established in 1791 (30 mi. NE). The mission relocated here in 1795. The 1868 building was razed, and in 1901 an impressive Victorian/Romanesque sanctuary was completed here. School, convent, and auditorium facilities were added in 1946. This church, which represents the area's unique blend of Spanish and Irish heritage, continues to serve the local community. (1995)
Sacred Heart, Rockport Historical Marker
Roman Catholic priests visited the Rockport area as early as 1838. The first Mass in the town of Rockport was celebrated in the home of County Judge John Hynes in 1860, and services continued there for a number of years. Although property was deeded to the church in 1871, the first church building was not erected until 1889. It was destroyed in a storm that same year and was replaced by another structure which served the congregation until 1954. In addition to its parochial school, Sacred Heart Church has served the community with many outreach programs. (1991)
704 Cornwall Street at Church St., Rockport (corner of Church Street and Cornwall).
Saint Anthony's, Robstown Historical Marker
In November 1909, the Rev. J. Goebels called a meeting to organize St. Anthony's parish for the recently settled German Catholic farm families in the community of Land Siding, later known as Violet. Louis Petrus donated five acres for a church site, and five additional acres were purchased. The parishioners began construction of this building in 1910, with John W. Hoelscher (1866-1941), one of the earliest settlers here, as foreman of the project. Originally measuring 26 feet by 40 feet, the frame structure served as a schoolhouse and church. The congregation enlarged and extensively remodeled the building in 1919. Three towers were added at that time. A bell, purchased earlier from Spohn Sanitarium in Corpus Christi, was installed in one. The rectory, which served as a schoolhouse and living quarters for visiting priests, was attached to the church building in 1920. Members then fenced and landscaped the area. In 1952 the parish built a larger church, and this structure was moved to serve the parish mission of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in nearby Clarkwood community. In 1975, after that congregation erected a new church facility, the old St. Anthony's building was relocated 200 feet east of its original site and restored as a museum by the Violet Historical Society. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1978

Saint Patrick, Old San Patricio Historical Marker
Empresarios John McMullen and James McGloin brought irish catholic immigrant families to Texas about 1829 to form a new colony, San Patricio de Hibernia. Under the direction of the Rev. Henry Doyle, the colonists established Saint Patrick's Catholic Church about 1830. A fire in 1858 destroyed the original frame church building and all church records. The Rt. Rev. Jean Marie Odin, first Bishop of Texas, dedicated a replacement church building about 1859. Local citizens built a two and one half story building for a convent and school on the grounds of Saint Patrick's Church. After an 1875 hurricane destroyed facilities at Indianola, nuns from the order of Sisters of Mercy relocated in San Patricio and operated Saint Joseph's convent and school from 1876 until 1884. After a 1919 hurricane completely demolished the church facilities, the congregation rebuilt in 1922. A need for a larger facility led the congregation to build a fourth structure in 1961. Through the years Saint Patrick's Catholic Church has served the community with sunday mass and the sacraments and missions given by visiting priests.
FM 666 (Main Street) San Patricio
St. Francis de Paula, San Diego Historical Marker
Established in 1867 by Father Claude Jaillet, St. Francis de Paula Catholic Church was built through the contributions of its members and was the center of religious activity in the area. Father Jaillet served until 1872, and returned again from 1875-1884. This church was constructed in 1908 during the pastorate of Father Pedro Bard. The church was enlarged and remodeled and Parochial Hall was added by 1950. The church celebrated 100 years of service to its members and the surrounding communities in 1967, and continues to serve the area. (1996)
405 South Victoria Street, San Diego
Stella Maris, Lamar Historical Marker
Irish immigrant James W. Byrne (1787-1865), a veteran of the Texas Revolution, was an early settler of this area. He established the town of Lamar and, with his wife Harriet, sold land on Aransas Bay to the Catholic church for a chapel site. Byrne engaged a French architect to design the structure, which was completed in 1858. Called Stella Maris (Star of the Sea) Chapel, it was built of shellcrete, a shell-aggregate masonry. An important link with the area's early Roman Catholic heritage, the chapel was moved to this site in 1986. (1986)
From Rockport, take SH 35 north about 7 miles to Goose Island State Park (just north of causeway). Then follow P13 east then NE to Lamar Cemetery

Eyes are blinded by tears of pain
Hopes and dreams are shattered into fragments time and time again
Life's a prison and death's the key
Time take my life (x's 9)
It's gotta bring me down. Down down down 'til I'm free.
Where's the reason and where's the rhyme
Life's a single second in the eternity of time
Life's a gift that time takes away
Time take my life (x's 9)
It's gotta bring me down. Down down down everyday, everyday.
Repeat 1st verse and chorus
Until your last breath, until your last breath slips away
(that's what time is babe, that's what life's all about babe
You can't rule it babe, it's gotcha babe)

We knew we were in for very cold weather for the first three days with temp highs barely getting above zero. It turned out that the first day we had the best fishing with overcast conditions. I also did really well on day two, but Andy didn't fare as well. Day three high pressure really affected the bite for me (Andy did better than me). And by day four the weather was actually back to respectable limits and found the fish a bit more cooperative.
We caught most of our fish in around 20 FOW. All in all I caught a few big gills close to the ten inch mark. I also registered a tie for my personal best bluegill that measured 10.5" We also found occasional slab crappies roaming the basin. I had the best luck on a Little Atom Atomic Stealth jig tipped with either Gulp! Alive waxies in red or spikes. Andy was hammering fish on a Fiskas jig with hooks coming out of either end and loaded with a couple spikes. Here's a bunch of pictures I took, so enjoy!
Andy nabs a big gill
Mike Thompson with some slabs!
Another beauty for Andy
Here's my 10.5" bluegill. I wish I had taken more pictures.

" Every religion believes in eternity–another life.
This life on earth is not the end.
People who believe it is the end, fear death.
If it was properly explained that death was nothing but going home to God, then there would be no fear of death."
from the Joy in Loving by Mother Teresa
I wonder if death is something like birth. Delivering a baby is scary and has pain, but once it's over, there is a new life. Just like that, after death, we can enter God's kingdom with a new life.
"Endless must be our terror, until we come heart to heart with the fire-core of the universe, the first and the last and the living One." –George MacDonald
Yes. If we hold on to God who created this universe, our fear ceases.
"It is when tomorrow's burden is added to the burdeon of today, that the weight is more than a man can bear.
Never load yourselves so, my friends. If you find yourselves so loaded, at least remember this; it is your doing, not God's.
He begs you to leave the future to Him." (George MacDonald from Annals of Quiet Neighbourhood)
At last, Paul, who was prisoned, tortured, and martyred, said as follows in a letter to the Philippian church.

Forum > Software / Technical
Is CrossFire still alive?
(1/2) > >>
The software won't open on the Mac, and email to contact address is being rejected. Anyone had recent dealings?
You may have an issue with Java. The Java runtime is not installed by default anymore. I am running Mac OS X 10.9.1 and just downloaded and installed the Crossfire demo without problems.
Latest version of Java installed to no avail. Message I'm getting is:
"CrossFire.app can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer."
As I mentioned, email to developer is also bouncing. Has anyone bought it recently?
I realize this is an ancient thread, but just in case anyone else runs across this when searching for information about CrossFire on the Mac:
CrossFire does continue to work on the Mac. I am currently using it on OS X 10.11.1 (El Capitan). The most recent CrossFire release is based on Java 6, which requires installing a legacy Java runtime from Apple, but it still works.
The warning "CrossFire.app can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" is the result of Apple allowing by default only apps from registered Apple developers to run. It is easy to work around: when the dialog comes up, you may click the "Open" button to open the app anyway.
Thanks for the update on CrossFire, qwrrty.
I'm still using it on Yosemite so it's good to know it works on the latest OS version.

Presto 5900 1500
Best Overall
Aroma Housewares AEW-306
Best for the Money
Aroma Housewares AEW-305
Best on a Budget
Do you ever feel frustrated by the fact that the Asian food you cook at home never tastes quite as good as the one you get in a restaurant despite the fact that you are using the same ingredients? Well, a lot of that has to do with the wok that you are using. We are going to go so far with the science behind a wok that you may get tired of it all, so, for now, let's just say that the only way us, regular folk, can manage the cooking temperature as well as the chefs is by using an electric wok.
Of course it is not just about the wok itself! It has to do with the non stick coating that allows you to raise the cooking temperature as fast as you have to. It also has to do with the ability to monitor the simmering process very carefully, which you would be able to do with a glass lid, and there is also the fact that the entire cooking system needs to be extra stable or your delicious meal will end up on the floor during those last few stirs.
So taking all of that into consideration we have put together the following list of the best electric woks out there. We did so after carefully reviewing dozens of similar products so you can be sure that we have picked the very best options for you. Finally we have compiled detailed electric wok reviews for each one of our choices so you will know why we made each choice and you can grade our homework based on your own preferences.
Best Electric Wok
This is considered by us the best electric wok on the market!
We are going to go into a much more detailed review further on, but for now let us just mention that the best electric wok out there today is the Presto 5900 Stainless Steel Electric Wok. It is important to note here that there are much more expensive products on the market but they do not really deserve your attention or the huge price tag that comes along. We believe the Presto to be the best choice you have today because of its large 17 inch diameter, the 1500 Watt power heating element that can heat up the cooking surface to 400 degree Fahrenheit in a matter of seconds, and also because of the lack of any non stick coating. That last reason might seem like an odd one, but we are going to give you ample reasons for it in our in depth review, so make sure to check that if you are unclear about our choice here.
Best Electric Wok for the Money
Large 5 quart capacity with high domed lid
There is a very interesting alternative to the Presto Electric Wok and it is the Aroma Housewares AEW-306. If you need to watch those purse strings but still would like to get as much as you can out of your electric wok, than the Aroma is the better choice. It is somewhat smaller, but just as powerful as the Presto. It also has a glass lid which is very important when dabbling in Asian cuisine – particularly if you are a beginner. It has a dial that allows you to perfectly control the temperature while you are cooking, and a rack that you can use to allow tempura to drain. The lid allows you to switch between cooking and steaming, by allowing some of the heat from inside to escape or not depending on what dish you are planning to serve. The only reason why this is not our top choice is really the non stick coating and the fact that the Presto electric wok is actually bigger.
Best Electric Wok for the Money
Large 7 quart capacity with high domed lid
Although we would love to know that all of our readers can afford to use one of our top 2 picks, we do know that sometimes you have to balances the desire for a delicious meal with a decreased income. For that reason we have also taken into consideration the Aroma Housewares AEW-305 Electric Wok. It has many things going against it, but the one thing that really impressed us was the huge 7 quart capacity. However the heating element is not that big and you should definitely not expect to reach cooking temperature as fast as you would with our 2 other choices. However, it does get there, and the non stick coating is quite durable so, provided you take adequate care of it, the Aroma Housewares AEW-305 should last you for several years without any problems. It does have several things going against it but we do encourage you to read our in depth review to find out more about them.
Why You Need an Electric Wok
Temperature control is essential when cooking most types of Asian food. Even if you are thinking of boiling a simple rice cup, you will need to let the rice boil on its own without mixing it. The risk then becomes that a part of it will become stuck to the bottom of the pan, burn and give a nasty flavor to the entire dish. And if rice is that difficult to cook, you can only imagine how much more difficult it would be to get anything else ready. That is why it is so important to have an electric wok with a temperature probe that touches the exact cooking surface that the food comes in contact with. That means the wok will automatically increase its power output when you start cooking and will decrease that power as things start to heat up in the pan. These are things that an experience cook will do while using an open flame stove and, after years of experience, she will not even think about it. But since we do not have years to home our skills, it becomes essential to use an electric wok.
There is also the fact that most people do not feel like having Asian food all of the time. So while an electric stove might be an interesting alternative – although it does not give you the same temperature control – it cannot be stored away as easily as a wok. And storage may be key here because, if you enjoy camping trips, or you are a fan of couch surfing, you will know how great it can be to have the essential cooking utensils that you enjoy at home, ready wherever you go. The point is that you can easily pack your electric wok with you and have it ready to go wherever you travel to. It does not draw that much power so you can easily power it from the outlet of an RV, or you can even use a power inverter and cook from the cigarette port of a regular car. Cleaning is also very easily done because of that temperature control we have praised so much. 2 out of the 3 electric woks we have chosen as our favorites have a non stick coating, so combined with the temperature probe, you have a guarantee that you will not end up with a difficult to clean pot. You will find it very easy to wipe most of the food out of the wok and then you could even dip it in cold, stream water and get it clean.
What Makes a Great Electric Wok
There are several aspects that you need to take into consideration when buying an electric wok so we are going to take them by the numbers for you.
1. The Non-Stick Coating
There certainly are many advantages to having a non stick coating on all of your favorite pots, but there are also several disadvantages. The problem with non stick coatings is the fact that they become very brittle at high temperature so they can be easily damaged by the stirring the food. You can use wood or Teflon spoons, but they will only postpone the inevitable. On some inferior products we have even seen the non stick coating come off during cleaning. On the other hand, while it lasts, the non stick coating makes cooking that much easier. That is why we have chosen electric woks with and without the coating and you can choose your favorite. What we can say that may influence your choice is that the fact that you have perfect control over the cooking temperature means it should be relatively easy to keep the food from sticking even from surfaces without non stick coating.
2. Temperature Control
Because the temperature control feature is one of the things that convinces most people to buy an electric wok, we have seen some manufacturers go overboard with how precise they make it. The truth is that temperature control is great, but anything that goes over 7 steps of power control is really going overboard with it. Most cooks will refer to 5 temperature levels: low, medium low, medium, medium high, and high. So even 7 steps are a bit of an overkill, but it certainly can be nice, particularly on the lower settings.
3. The Lid
Finally, you should consider the quality and type of the lid you would be using. While the stainless steel lids are a lot cheaper, and thus the price of the electric wok is lower, it can be great, particularly in the beginning to be able to look at the food as you are cooking. The lid keeps the heat in, so what may be simmering temperature without the lid, can easily become boiling temperature with the lid on. Plus, there is almost a hypnotic attraction that a slow simmering rice can have, where you will keep looking at it as it cooks, through the lid, and may come up with a significant flavoring detail that will give your dish that important personal touch.
Best Electric Wok – Full Review
You may find it odd that our top choice is not actually the biggest wok on our list. The Presto 5900 1500-Watt Stainless-Steel Electric Wok has roughly a 4 quarts capacity, making it on par with the Aroma Housewares AEW-306, but it will be a very rare occurance when you will be cooking at the full volume capacity of the wok. In fact, no Asian dish will have you use the full capacity of the wok, most of the time you will be using just a single quart of the entire capacity. That is because all of the food usually needs to be in close contact with the bottom of the pan where all the heat is.
The Presto Electric Wok is a stainless steel wok, with no non-stick coating what so ever. That means it there is nothing to deteriorate over time, and it is a much easier wok to cook in than the rest. You can use anything from your kitchen knife to a gentle wood spatula to stir, and everything will turn out great. Most Asian dishes use a relatively large amount of oil or fat so the food should not stick to the pot anyway. There are many dishes that require you to sear the meat, and that will come out much better, it will even have a stronger taste profile with a stainless steel wok than with something that uses a non stick coating.
You should also take into consideration the fact that the Presto 5900 1500-Watt Stainless-Steel Electric Wok has a glass lid, and we have already talked about how important that is. The other important feature that you may not be aware of is the 1500 Watt heating element. It may sound like something that will drain a lot of power but the 1500 watts are only used when they are really necessary, and may not be used at all if you do not turn the dial up to maximum. The reason why you do want such a big heating element is that smaller ones tend to burn out quite easily even if not used at their maximum output. It is similar to why your car's speedometer goes to 150 miles per hour but you never drive that fast, and, unless your car is brand new, you may not even be able to reach that speed.
The Presto comes with its own wooden spatula and measures 14 inches from the bottom of the feet to the top of the lid. These characteristics may not be so significant unless you are planning to take the wok without on family vacations, and then you need to take into consideration every aspect of the wok. There is also the fact that the entire thing except for the temperature probe and wire is dish washer safe. So there really is no reason why you should shy away from this electric wok, unless, of course, if you need to spend as little as possible, which is where our other 2 choices come into play.
Best Electric Wok for the Money – Full Review
Large 5 quart capacity with high domed lid
You may not be that restricted by financial consideration as to have to cut on quality, but you many need to get the biggest bang for your buck. That is where the Aroma Housewares AEW-306 Electric Wok comes into play. It is that little bit cheaper than the Presto, but the main reason why it is not our favorite choice may very well make it your favorite: it does have a non stick coating. The coating is of the very best quality and we have no doubt that, with proper care, it may last several years without a scratch or mark on it. However, most people do not take proper care of their kitchen utensils, and we certainly fall in that category. The volume of the Aroma Housewares AEW-306 Wok is also of 5 quarts so almost identical in volume with the Presto wok, and it too comes with extra long, wood chopsticks, so you will have every chance to protect your wok from scratches. However, we should point out that there have been users that complained about the non stick coating failing after 6 months. Obviously we have no way of telling how those people used it, and we only tested it for several weeks, but for as long as we used it, the coating seemed to be very good and did not give any signs of that it would fail any time soon.
The one other difference between the Aroma Housewares and the Presto is that the former draws 1400 Watts of power, so it is slightly less powerful, but that goes with the lower price tag. Then again 1400 Watts is more than enough to make us sure that the wok will not short out anytime soon, even with heavy duty use.
The one thing that we do like about it is the fact that it comes with a glass lid so you can monitor your cooking easily. Besides the lid the Aroma Housewares comes with several other interesting features like the drying rack and a steaming support. The steaming support is made out of stainless steel and will come in contact with the non stick coating if you choose to use it, so we would recommend setting it in place once and not moving it again until the wok has had a chance to cool down. Despite the threat it poses to the non stick coating we would encourage you to use the steaming element because it greatly expands the variety of the dishes you can cook. We were also happy to discover that you can very comfortably use anyone of the electric woks we have been talking about as deep fryers, except that you will have to improvise your own wire rack to pull out the fries or meat.
Best Electric Wok on a Budget – Full Review
Large 7 quart capacity with high domed lid
There is a very simple reason why the Aroma Housewares AEW-305 Electric Wok is not our favorite product and it has to do with its power output. Everything else about it is so exceptional that we considered for a long time making it our top choice but the fact that it only has a 1400 watt heating element – plus the fact that it does not have a glass lid – convinced us to leave it as our third favorite choice. The fact that it has a 1400 watt heating element may not seem that significant, since the Presto uses 1500 watts and the other Aroma Housewares we have talked about uses the same 1400 watt heating element. However, you are forgetting the most impressive feature of the AEW-305: it has a 7 quart capacity. That makes it the biggest wok on our list, and one of the biggest electric woks on the market.
The problem with having a very large electric wok, though, is that you may be tempted to use it at its fullest capacity and that is when you will be taking that important heating element past its recommended level. To achieve the highest temperature indicated by the temperature probe, which would be around 450 degrees, the heating element will have to stay on for extended periods of time and that may reduce its life span. So while we know what to expect from a non stick coating, and you can easily tell when it is almost completely spent, you cannot do the same with a heating element. It will just stop working one day without any prior warning.
However, that may not happen that soon, particularly if you will not be using the wok at its maximum capacity all the time. So we should consider some of its better qualities. The first thing that impressed us what the textured non stick coating because it let us know that high quality steel was used in the manufacture of the wok. You should also appreciate the fact that textured non stick coatings last longer because they stick better to the surface of the wok. That high quality steel also distributes the heat better along its surface better, so even when the wok is half full, the food will cook evenly throughout the entire surface.
Of course that lowered price means you are going to miss some of the more interesting features that would recommend this wok. For example, beside the missing glass lid, you get a regular stainless steel, black lid, there is also the fact that there is no steaming support or drying rack. You can buy those separately, of course, but that only brings the price up. There is also the fact that the power cable is connected directly to the wok, so it really is not recommended that you use put the entire thing in the dish washer. However, the Aroma Housewares AEW-305 Electric Wok is so much more affordable than the Presto, that it may be the perfect choice for the purse wary customer.
Other Considerations
We have touched upon this fact a little bit when talking about the Aroma Housewares AEW-306, our "best for the money" category, but most woks can be used as deep fryers. However, there are a couple of things that you should take into consideration before you do that. One thing is the fact that the wok becomes progressively larger as you go further up from the bottom which means you will use a lot more oil if you plan to use the wok as a deep fryer. Other people have tried using the wok as a regular pan, but then the problem is that the bottom itself is too small so anything larger than 2 eggs or perhaps a medium size steak will be too big. So, while there are other functions that you can use a wok for, you really should only purchase one if your are mainly focused on cooking Asian food.
