Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Isn't Up To Speed On Jeremy Lin, 'Linning'

Junk Drawer - 10/20/09 - The Cookie Edition.

 

Everything after the jump

Star-divide

Remember when Lucille Bluth was all stressed out so Michael decided to try and be a good son and asked his Uncle Oscar to, perhaps, give his mother some Afternoon Delight?  But Oscar got confused about what Michael meant and then said that perhaps he could put it in her cookie and Michael became a little disgusted? I don't get why Michael overreacted.

With that in mind, let's talk about afternoon del.....i mean....let's talk about cookies.  I was quite fortunate in my childhood to have homemade cookies all the time.  Not factory dough squeezed out of a can and then shoved in an oven, but actual cookie dough made from staple ingredients and mixed together.  I ate many types of cookies: from chocolate chip to sour cream to chocolate crinkles and several others. 

But now, sadly, homemade cookies are few and far between what with me being lazy and not a good baker and all.  But oh how the memory of a fresh, warm cookie in my mouth takes me to such a joyous place.

Ya. When done right they're great, but I'm picky about chips

I don’t like Nestle’s chips. They’re ok warm out of the oven, but when they cool down they’re too gritty for me and they have a chemical aftertaste. It’s always worth it to use a good quality chocolate. Guittard has a particularly nice flavor and texture.

I just finished off a batch of chocolate chip cookies.

I used a dark bittersweet chocolate, can’t remember the brand, that I broke up into chunks along with pecans. Ummmm. I made them for BuRP’s birthday but he was too sick to eat them. Tomorrow I’m making oatmeal with coconut and dried cranberries to take on a trip to the big ditch. Dried cranberries makes everything better.

It is interesting

I think it could shorten the construction cycle. Why cut into the side of a mountain to make a flat level track, when the track could just be placed on the mountain’s surface, and the vessel could hover along side? The inside of the train car could “float” like a gyroscope inside a tube so it always stays level. Why build a new bridge when you could just mount the track on the side of an existing one?

Chocolate chip FTW!

So here’s the scoop, DTL. Cookies are EASY to make from scratch. But if you’re worried about your baking ability, here’s an easy way to get around that. Get a kids cookbook. Yeah, you can tell the folks at the bookstore it’s for your kids/niece or nephew/brother or sister….whatever, but they are pretty idiot-proof and the recipes usually taste pretty good. Not to imply you’re an idiot, but people who say they can’t cook often feel that way in the kitchen.

Or you can avoid the whole “who you buyin’ that for?” question at Amazon.

I taught a 6 year old how to bake using a kids cookbook….anyone here can do it. And most certainly, cookies made from scratch taste better.

Eggs-actly

Cookies are super easy to make, and it’s hard to go wrong with them. Unless you forget about them and burn them to a crisp, they’ll always taste pretty good. They’re MUCH better when they’re made from scratch. Same for brownies.

by Corvid on Oct 20, 2009 10:19 AM PDT up reply actions  

I started making cookies when I was 5 or so

My mom can’t cook, but she’s a good baker, and she whenever she wanted a dessert she’d let us make cookies as long as we did it on our own. It was a win/win.

We’d make it from scratch, cuz that was how you did it in those days. Incredibly easy.

What is the next evolution in music?

Will performers no longer release “albums” of 12+ songs? Will they start releasing one or a series of songs at a time? The future digital delivery system seems to open up the possibilities.

If they no longer produce albums, what will come of cover art?

They will mostly try to get people to put them on TV and on a tour and come to their tour

The number of musicians making real money off their CDs or singles (i.e. more than a decent job, or even a minimum wage job) is tiny. So they need to find other ways. A lot will be released for free.

One model I like (though he was already pretty famous) is Trent Reznor of NIN, who released whole recordings as Garage Band or Logic tracks that are of no use to most people but really give him support among his hard core fans. That way people can get the instrumentals of his songs, or just the base line, or do their own remixes. He also pretty much gave albums away for free – or whatever little people wanted to pay for it without recording companies as the middle man – plus special editions that were more expensive like special editions of DVS in box sets.

He did a similar model for one of his proteges, a rapper named Saul Williams. I had never heard of him, but still bought his album, and since then I get informed about what he does, where he tours, etc. He didn’t make a lot of money off me, but without that creative way of distribution and marketing he would have made exactly 0.

Without the inclusion of oatmeal raisin as an option. You have done a disservice to true cookie lovers as well as showed your bias towards choco-based treats by giving us the option of the oatmeal choco-chip. If you are going to do a poll please next time consider doing one that is more inclusive of people that may have a different life experience than you.

PS an alternate for the oatmeal raisin could be the white chocolate cherry oatmeal, however now that I bring that up, I am feeling a bit the part of a hypocrite, by my blending of the choco/fruit based oatmeal deliciousness! DANGIT!!!!!!

Per the interwebs:
7th Century A.D. – The earliest cookie-style cakes are thought to date back to 7th century Persia A.D. (now Iran), one of the first countries to cultivate sugar (luxurious cakes and pastries in large and small versions were well known in the Persian empire). According to historians, sugar originated either in the lowlands of Bengal or elsewhere in Southeast Asia. Sugar spread to Persia and then to the Eastern Mediterranean. With the Muslim invasion of Spain, then the Crusades and the developing spice trade, the cooking techniques and ingredients of Arabia spread into Northern Europe.

the truth of the above statement matters little. what matters, is a simple equation, we all hold as an inalienable truth, namely, cookies = nuclear ambitions. as a trrrrrue american, i must point out to all of you commie lovers, that i didn’t vote in this poll, just for this reason. voting in this poll, is like, giving the keys to the empire to those commies.

What are your favorite sweets (besides chips and cookies)?

Since someone mentioned white chocolate, I like this especially during the summer as a light chocolate.

And also most stuff that contains nougat and marzipan. On Christmas you can get little marzipan breads or small “potatoes”. Those are awesome.

they cost too much (they have to be a special order) so I don’t waste them on a cast iron. definitely throw them on the barbie for about 30 minutes (watch the internal temperature, don’t want to get food poisoning) and prepare some nice side dishes.

My dad was making lefse one year for Thanksgiving. He made a big pile. We were all enjoying it after dinner, and he kept looking around and fidgeting with his hand. I asked him what was up, and he said he lost his band aid. Well about ten minutes later he lifted up the last piece, and there it was on the plate under all the lefse. He casually picked it up, and put it on his finger. Luckily he and I were the only ones to see it.

its always been a holiday tradition for our family. I prefer mine with strawberry jam, but butter and cinnamon sugar also works well.

I believe the teenage girl clause was taken under advisement, but as there is no proof the Roybot is not a 45 year old man (this being the internet and all) I believe management determined that it had little bearing on this particular case

Anybody know what’s good and what to avoid?

By the way, the best cuisine I had never heard of might be Peruvian. Awesome. I’m sure it’s coming to a trendy restaurant near you in the next decade :) Afghan and some North and West African cuisine – often mixed with French – is also very tasty.

Is they are either fans of the book, author, actor or whatever and they ignore all the crap and like it because of something else, or they have such huge expectations because they know the story or history and they get pissed it didn’t live up to their expectations.

My wife watched that with her mother, sister, and brother in law. Apparently they all thought it was the funniest move ever and they all laughed a lot (also about a month after the dad died).

We watched it together the other day and I was entertained, but never laughed out loud. After the movie, my wife was perturbed that I didn’t laugh as much as the rest of her family.

I don’t normally laugh out loud though. I think it is easier to make me cry than it is to make me laugh for real.

i thought it wasn’t a very fun movie. with movies like that, I expect to kind of be instilled with a sense of wonder while watching it (think Willy Wonka or Toy Story or something) but with this, it was just kinda depressing. lots of yelling. the Wild Things were annoying, not captivating.

I got a lot of romance points off of that one for awhile. Even though she was quite dumbfounded that I sat there for the entire night with a ring in my pocket without saying anything. The surprise made it worth it, plus how do you interrupt someone and say ‘Oh yeah, btw…’

I’d love being proposed to myself (well, except for the fact that I’m already married so it would be awkward), but I’m going to wager that many men would be quite intimidated by the idea of a woman doing the proposing… beach or otherwise.

Like Lifetime, there are some strikingly captivating programs on Oxygen.

My favorite program on Oxygen, Snapped, is gender equality at its finest. For some sexist reason, men get an unfair rap in American society for allegedly being the violent gender. However, if Snapped has proven anything, it’s that a person’s gender and their capacity to commit murder are totally separate from each other. Indeed, both men and women commit vile, depraved acts.

We need to make some fundamental changes in the way we do things in this country. The gamblers and con artists of the financial sector, the very same clowns who did so much to bring the economy down in the first place, are howling self-righteously over the prospect of regulations aimed at curbing the worst aspects of their excessively risky behavior and preventing them from causing yet another economic meltdown.

That was a grand, virtuoso performance by Heath Ledger as the Joker, but it's likely that ...

his ability to aptly portray a psychopath on screen and his drug-riddled lifestyle coincided to an extent with each other. As it is, someone’s got to have an edge to them if they’re able to pull of that intense role without a hitch.

i've heard that the role

is what got him in to the prescription drugs. that he was having a hard time embodying that role and then trying to step away from it in regular life. which is really sad if true. but, at the same time, a testament to his dedication to the craft. he was a great actor.

and yet he most likely, and according to some reports actually was, suffering from

addiction, depression, and insomnia for much of his adult life. No doubt these conditions were exascerbated by this role, I dont buy the "joker role make him kill himself " theory, which is essentially what most people think.

Fez and Kelso weren't pointless

at the beginning of the show though. They made Fez into a clown near the end whereas in the begining, he was good comic relief and a good “fish out of water” type. And Kelso was involved in engaging stories. It was one of the few ensemble shows where I didn’t feel like there was a “pointless” character. That changed eventually. Red and Kitty did provide some of the best moments though. Also Bob Pinciatti as pretty hilarious in the beginning of the show.

And it’s previously established that Kevin has some foot odor issues. The staff got the shoes, and the manager made the executive decision to have them destroyed.

He agreed to let it go, after being offered a free breakfast.

He also has his revenge later, with the hotel ice machine. Not sure if that is in the clip.

The Kevin character is borderline retarded nowadays, which is a shame.

I tried to be friendly and reply to as many folks as I could, then it seemed like either I was being butthurt or a lot of people were either trying to prove me wrong or make me look stupid. Once I realized I had to embrace my “Git-r-doneness” and cut back, things got better.

There are a lot of really smart posters that are skip worthy too. It’s just not worth reading another 5,000 words about who should start at point guard for the Blazers or how the Blazers need a “banger.”

Is, in my opinion, he repeats stuff that has been proven (either through logic or by reports) to be false as if it ’tis true.

Such as the Devin Harris deal.

In yesterday's JD there was a question about if the free throw percentage of your opponents was luck/random or if there was some underlying skill involved

I started crunching the numbers (Link) and perhaps there is something to it being a skill.

Over the last 9 seasons, the Blazers have had an opponents ft% at least 1% higher than the league average (i.e. Blazers have 76% while the league is at 74.5%) 3 times while over the same period have had an opponent ft% at least 1% lower than the league average once.

While not a super statistical approach, there does seem to be some true to the idea that the opponents of the Blazers shoot better from the foul line than the league average.

by tingeyga on Oct 20, 2009 2:13 PM PDT reply actions  

what needs to be done

is someone needs to go through and tabulate how many free throws went >70% free throw shooters and how many went to bad free throw shooters.

what needs to be done is coordinate end zone distraction methods for those fans with the white things.

just clapping them together like that doesn’t do anything. they need to find a way to suddenly shift the image on the other side of the backboard rather than create “white noise”. Think Cameron Indoor. It’d be interesting to see what FT% at Cameron rank against the rest of the NCAA.

The longest we’d ever be out of coverage would be a day or two, and that is what romantic comedies and jiffy pop are for, not land lines.

Besides, the Blazers are about to win it all. Do you really think the Creator would interfere with that?

Dear Whoever You Are:
Having worked for a cell phone company, I know that those who control your cell phone access are looking for any occasion to cut it off. Your assurance that we would only be out of coverage a day or two at most is not comforting to me, and your assumption that in an emergency we would be “watching romantic comedies and eating jiffy pop” is, well, laughable. I prefer to have both of my bases covered, with a cell phone for the car and a land line for the house. But thank you for your concern.

The game I watched in person

Oden was just playing good ol’ fashioned good defense, and didn’t need help from the refs to stay out of foul trouble. If anything, the refs NOT calling fouls hurt him on offense, where he thought he was gonna get a call and forced up awful shots.

But on defense, where he got a lot of calls in the past, he just wasn’t doing those silly things that caused the fouls to be called. No hip checks, intentional fouls, etc.

So, hopefully it translates to the new-old refs.

I offered Kidd and Biedrins for Jefferson and Marvin Williams, but I think I’ll rescind that now :)

Bad bad trade for you

He’s a silly boy not to take that deal before, and you silly to offer it!

Ya don’t need Jefferson’s scoring, and Beans gives ya the same rebounding Al does, and blocks more shots. And Kidd does everything more than Marvin.

Bad deal…

Al Jeff, if healthy, does give you more overall at a good percentage than Beans

BUT, Marvin won’t give as much as Kidd, and Kidd gives ya more than just assists.

And Jeff doesn’t really give that much outside of scoring and rebounding.

Too bad. Those guys meant a few more wins for the T-Wolves,

and that would have meant a lot to the fans.

On the upside, Kurt Rambis, who had gone into his Minnie head coach job with zero expectations on his shoulders, now actually has negative expectations, meaning the closer he gets the team to the #1 draft pick, the better he looks to management.

well I've been asking my Mexican friends and they are convinced that no one in town makes really good tamales

they all make them at home, although my friend Eduardo said that he met a lady a couple weeks ago who makes decent ones. He doesn’t know how often he can get them though. Everybody I know who gets them has some secret connection, and they can only get limited amounts. I just haven’t found my hookup yet. To answer your question though there are many taco trucks in Portland, don’t know about Hillsboro, but I figured I would take the advice of the people who would know the best. The place I heard about is just outside of portland but their tamales are like 4 to 7 dollars each, and they seem americanized based on the menu. So if anyone has been to the canby asparagus farm stand in milwaukie and thinks they’re good, let me know…

Making tamales is very labor intensive.

I told them that over time I had become regretful of my choosing of an offensive name, but I don’t know if that really mattered. It took a couple of days and then they sent an email telling me to sign in with the new name. Make sure that you sign in with that name after you get the email though, because I tried signing in that day after they had sent but before I had read the email, and got locked out for awhile. Also I don’t remember putting the space in my name, but they did so if you have trouble just try a few different ways of entering it, ie caps, spaces etc….

Kirk boosted the defensive rating a lot and he picks the opposing PG’s pocket a few times a game.

He and Miller split the time at the 1, play some 2, and leave Brandon and Rudy to cover part of the 2 and most of the 3. Nico plays remaining 3 minutes and maybe a few at the 4.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.
