The earth is simply cooking from the inside out. This image shows the effect that the steam coming from deep within the Earth has had on the surface as it finally escapes.
Such intense heat, but life still exists right up to the point of escape. Good old Mother Nature, she's got it together...
The Crab Cooker is a popular Southern California restaurant specializing in seafood, located on the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, California. The restaurant is housed in an old branch building of the Bank of America located at 22nd & Newport Blvd. The logo of the bank prior to its merger with NationsBank can still be seen embedded in the corner of the building. It was established in 1951 and is considered a local landmark.
The outside of the restaurant is painted in bright red. Inside the restaurant, the decoration is a pastiche of unique items ranging from paintings by famous artists, theater chandeliers, pots and pans, a wrought-iron gate, nautical equipment – and a giant shark.[5] The restaurant is known for its casual atmosphere.[6] While a favorite local haunt, tourists from around the world visit to sample the cuisine and send one of their post cards, eat off of paper plates, and see the iconic fish sign. It is not uncommon to see patrons waiting in lines snaking down the street. These lines once elevated The Crab Cooker to national headlines when advance staff for then President Richard Nixon once asked to allow the president to be seated for dinner, and the staff informed them that the president would have to wait along with rest of the folks (any president would have gotten the same treatment)
According to a newspaper article displayed on a wall in the restaurant, dated January 29, 1960, two dory fisherman were 100-yards out from shore by the Newport Beach pier when they snagged, in their sea bass nets, the 1,000 pound white shark; the largest caught to date on the west coast.
The Crab Cooker's commercial fisher was nearby and the crew removed the shark from the tangled nets. It was then set it on display in front of the restaurant; dorsal fin waving in mock greeting to the crowds of 20,000 onlookers who jammed the streets for three days.
Though not all of the fish served at the restaurant comes in as fresh as the white shark, the fish the restaurant serves is fresh because it is bought directly from the fisherman, and they have people who fish specifically for them.
I can't cook rice consistently. sometimes it's great, and last week I burned it. I get distracted.
I found this mini rice cooker, used, online. It's smaller than my kettle; just the thing for 2 portions, ready in 30 minutes.

All you could want for a day's fishing. Tent for cover from the elements (although sunburn was today's only danger), cooker, food and drink, radio, reclining chair and bed in the tent. Maybe he's planning to stay overnight.
An accident in Plumstead High Street, near Plumstead station. This was a firm dealing in scrapping old cookers. There seemed to be a few mishaps with the lorries. There was another along the road a few months earlier.

"When Life gives you lemons, make lemonade"
For so long, I have just heard this quote and shrugged it off. But lately, I have stated to get it. There are so many things that haven't seemed to go right, or situations that really weren't ideal, or just things just generally suck. But I think all of those lemon situations could (almost always) be turned into lemonade.
I think in every situation, there is always two ways to look at it. For instance, my recent stack (see last photo) I could of just hopped off the bus and gone home in a complete state of embarrassment and sadness, or I could of (dramatic answer) secretly cried while in my seat, or complained to the people on the bus for just staring at me while it happened. OR do what I did do - get back up, get my shoe and waltz (with one shoe on and the other in my hand) to a seat near the back of the bus (my usual seat) and just suck it up. I now look back on the situation and laugh about how silly that whole moment was - like seriously... I even fail at walking. (THIS is pretty much me when I walk). hahaha
So many people have "failed" at something. But most have gotten back and tried again.
For instance:
Albert Einstein: Most of us take Einstein's name as synonymous with genius, but he didn't always show such promise. Einstein did not speak until he was four and did not read until he was seven, causing his teachers and parents to think he was mentally handicapped, slow and anti-social. Eventually, he was expelled from school and was refused admittance to the Zurich Polytechnic School. It might have taken him a bit longer, but most people would agree that he caught on pretty well in the end, winning the Nobel Prize and changing the face of modern physics.
F. W. Woolworth: Some may not know this name today, but Woolworth was once one of the biggest names in department stores in the U.S. Before starting his own business, young Woolworth worked at a dry goods store and was not allowed to wait on customers because his boss said he lacked the sense needed to do so.
Akio Morita: You may not have heard of Morita but you've undoubtedly heard of his company, Sony. Sony's first product was a rice cooker that unfortunately didn't cook rice so much as burn it, selling less than 100 units. This first setback didn't stop Morita and his partners as they pushed forward to create a multi-billion dollar company.
Harland David Sanders: Perhaps better known as Colonel Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken fame, Sanders had a hard time selling his chicken at first. In fact, his famous secret chicken recipe was rejected 1,009 times before a restaurant accepted it.
and my favourite -
Walt Disney: Today Disney rakes in billions from merchandise, movies and theme parks around the world, but Walt Disney himself had a bit of a rough start. He was fired by a newspaper editor because, "he lacked imagination and had no good ideas." After that, Disney started a number of businesses that didn't last too long and ended with bankruptcy and failure. He kept plugging along, however, and eventually found a recipe for success that worked.

Twice a year we go through this rigmarole. My cooker clock is easy to set … and after twenty years I can remember how to do it. But I needed a mini tripod to take the photo.

The Ricoh Half take the left picture at first, but occidental use to read from left to right and I really find funny that it change the "sens" of the picture. It seems that I've been surprise while I've been taking the second picture, but in fact that woman was surprise of that strange thing that I hold in my hand name is Ricoh Auto Half at first. That cheapy camera give anothers dimension to photography. Love that feeling :)
The traditional way of making barbecue pork ribs is on the grill. The traditional way of making pulled pork sandwiches is slow-cook fatty pork shoulder in vinegar and apple juice to cut the grease. I don't have a grill. BBQ ribs are messy to eat. I don't like gobs of fat on anything.
My solution is using a slow cooker and lean pork sirloin or tenderloin. When it is too lean, I drape a strip of bacon over the top to keep it from being too dry. After an hour on the high setting, I remove the bacon, turn the temperature to low, and brush on some barbecue sauce. When the meat it fork tender, I put it in a pie pan, brush on some more barbecue sauce, and finish it for a few minutes under the broiler to carmelize the sauce.
Dinner was BBQ pork, zucchini patties, and maple-pecan sweet potato - a tasty high fiber, high protein dinner.
