General Tso's Chicken
General Tso's Chicken
General Tso's chicken – BEST and easiest homemade General Tso's Chicken ever. Crazy delicious and a zillion times healthier and better than takeout!
General Tso's Chicken is one of the most requested Chinese recipes. Like other popular Chinese dishes here in the United States, you can't miss General Tso's Chicken if you love Chinese food. It's always served at Chinese buffet; it's also a very popular Chinese take out item. The good news is that it's really not that hard to make it at home.
General Tso's Chicken originated from Hunan, China, but from what I read, the connection of the dish to the brave Chinese general General Tso is largely a US or western reference. In any case, the authentic recipe of General Tso's chicken always calls for some dried red chilies—an important ingredient in Hunanese cooking. Chinese rice vinegar also plays a vital role in lending the bold vinegary note to the dish.

I love the general tso's chicken. Can I use rice wine vinegar for the recipe? I don't have chinese rice vinegar.
Hi Kara,
I used rice wine vinegar and I only cooked this once so I couldn't make any comparison yet, I thought it tasted good sweeter than general tso from chinese restaurant.
The ingredient list calls for chicken, but the recipe says shrimp? Is this interchangeable?
chicken not shrimp.
Awesome! I was just wondering how to make this dish as I can't remember how it tastes like…thanks so much for the recipe! Looks great!
*stomach rumbles*
Looks great!
This looks so yummy!! Would it be a huge difference if I left out the wine (we don't consume alcohol) and substituted regular soya sauce for the dark?
You need not be concened about alcohol in this or any heated dish. Alcohol has a low boiling point (173 degrees F) so when it's used in a dish whose preparation involves boiling, the alcohol is gone long before it's eaten.
I've never eaten US-Chinese I don't think so I'm not sure about General Tso's Chicken. From the looks of the picture and the ingredients list though I'd say it's closer to Gong Bao Chicken here in China. (Kung Pao Chicken to you Cantonese folks)
This recipe really looks great! We have had this dish in Singapore and Hong Kong and really tastes great! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Why have you used two kinds of soy sauce? Is it ok if I don't use the dark soy sauce and add some extra normal soy instead?
I did it tonight. It's so easy except that my partner got me extremely fat chicken thigh. I spent 20 minutes trimming as much fat as possible.
It tastes really good. Thanks for another easy and tasty recipe.
This is one of my guilty pleasures to try out in restaurants. I can't wait to try this recipe, even if it might ruin me on eating it in restaurants like your Kung Pao recipe (not necessarily a bad thing)!
I don't usually have dark soy sauce on hand. I know it would make it sweeter, but would using kecap manis instead change the flavor in any other way?
Looks absolutely appetising!
The dish was named after 19th century Chinese General Tso Tsung-T'ang and was invented in the 1950's by a Chinese refugee from China's Civil war for his restaurant in 44th Street, New York. There are more Chinese restaurants (46,000) than the total of MacDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King, Domino's and Pizza Hut combined in the United States.
The origin of General Tso's chicken is actually from a Chinese American in New York.
Information from "Did You Know" by Toyota in Yahoo.
General Tso's Chicken is my husbands favorite asian dish. I can't wait to give this a try! :)
Hooray! Love this!!! Will be making soon…thanks for sharing it Bee :) Your photos are making me drool!
Hi,Rasa..Is there any substitute for shaoxing wine??..coz it maybe hard to fine it back home..
Tried this last night ~ Delicious!! Stir fried the chx instead of deep fry for obvious health reasons. Thanks for your great recipes!!!
I tried making this last week, and though it was good, it didn't really taste like any General Tso's chicken I'd ever had. Tasted mostly like Hoisin sauce, though I only used the single tablespoon the recipe called for. When you call for "Chinese rice vinegar," what exactly are you talking about? Are you talking about black vinegar, or brown rice vinegar, or unseasoned rice vinegar? I used brown rice vinegar as it had the highest acidity among the rice vinegars in my pantry, but it was definitely lacking some tang. Most other recipes I've seen for it also include a good amount of dry sherry (or white wine) and more sour vinegars, like sherry vinegar or even white vinegar.
I agree with Jeremy. Made it last week and the taste was good but it wasn't like the General Tso chicken I remember and crave (I live in Europe now, and it's nowhere to be found). The hoisin flavour was too strong and it wasn't sweet enough.
Found the chinese rice vinegar in a Chinese shop here without problems so that wasn't an issue.
Do you have any further suggestions?
Thanks. Will try again in a while and will let you know!
Man! does this look great. I moved out of the US to the Philippines over two years ago. I had been going back and forth between the US and the Philippines for about three years before moving there permanently. I knew there would be many differences I would have to become accustom to or at least adjust to. Food was one of my biggest worries. I don't mean to offend anyone but I hate Filipino food! 99% of everything I have eaten here out right discuss me. I am older now so my wife does most of the cooking. She ends up cooking Filipino food for her and the maid and something I can eat.
On the other hand I love many Chinese foods. It's one of the things I miss most about the US when it comes to food. I was so surprised that with so many Chinese living here in the Philippines and most living here for probably hundreds of years but you can't find Chinese food as us American's know it or as I have read about in China. The Chinese/Filipinos eat Filipino food. Some looks somewhat like the Chinese recipes we know but taste nothing like them.
Up into just a few years ago you would have had a difficult time finding the ingredients for the recipe above. Now that there are many new imported products and a larger verity of vegetables in the market, we may be able to make some of your delicious looking meals.
I was wondering if you have been to the Philippines (Davao City) in particular and know of pre-prepared Chinese food such as we have in the US or China?
I love General Tso – The sauce when right is sweet tangy and with a bite of spice. I don't have easy access to Asian markets, so I rely on the limited asian sections at the grocers. I use a substitute mixture rice vinegar and cooking wine. The results aren't bad.
OMG! This looks delicious!! I'm gonna have to give this a try. LOVE your blog. It never ceases to amaze me! Hehe thanks for all your hard work :) I'll be back to tell you how it went!
I made this for CNY 2012.. and my family love it.. Thanks for the recipe.. 谢谢~
can use japanese rice vinegar instead of.Chinese rice vinegar?
Three words…better than takeout. Great recipe. Thanks so much for sharing.
Do u have a recipe for sesame chicken and yum yum sauce.I look on online and try some but there ok but not what i'm looking for…I love Chinese food..I was wonder if u can help me Thank you
Absolutely love General Tso's chicken…one of my favorites! Will definitely give this recipe a shot. Thanks!
I made this with pan fried tofu and it was awesome!!! Your sauce is perfect — I skipped the dried chilies and added a couple generous spoonfuls of sambal.
Terrific. Just had this for dinner. It cooked up quickly. Substituted regular vinegar and it came out fine. Velveted the chicken in water instead of frying.
Woah. Where can I find some of these ingredients? I dunno if we have these anywhere near Olathe, Kansas.
Excellent Tso! I'm from NY where there is lots of culture and many excellent restaurants and ethnicities. This IS HOW THIS IS SUPPOSED TO TASTE. Just because it doesn't taste like the chinese food you may have had from a small hometown in the middle of nowwhere USA-it does not mean this is not the right/great recipe
Hey! Made the recipe and it was good but not great. The only place I had to deviate was using sake wine (rice wine) instead of shoaxing. Now the sake wine had a significant amount of salt which I think overpowered the recipe. Does shoaxing wine have salt in it? To be clear this is the first time I've done much more than heat up premade sauce, so I don't mean to insult when I say it wasn't great- I'm going to try again, but was wondering if the salt content of the wine I used might be what's throwing off my recipe?
Tis was great! My husband wanted to make Gen. Tso's from scratch and stumbled upon your recipe. He decided to triple the recipe, since we are a family of seven, and it is a good thing he did, otherwise we would not have had enough! Even the kids liked it.
Very good recipe. I think the sauce is what makes this recipe stand out.
I have tried other online recipes before this one, but almost all of the ones I found were disappointing. Thank you for spending the effort to create these.
How many adults does this recipe for Gen Tso's Chicken feed?
I want to make about 30 pounds of chicken, do you
recommend multiplying all the indredients by the same
I prefer not to deep fry the meats like in sweet and sour and this recipe, I just wok the meat and for the rest follow the recipe.
The bater is nice sometimes but it doesnt come out good every time, and you can easy overcook the meat. and it is quite a bit more work making it that way.
Just thought I'd point out a slight inaccuracy in your reference to the history of General Tso's Chicken. It didn't originate from Hunan, China. It actually originated in New York City in the 1970's, created by Hunan immigrants. They came up with a recipe after several attempts to create something that was more palatable to the western tongue.
Nit-picking aside, I've been interested in making this dish at home for some time and can't wait to try out this recipe!
This General Tso's Chicken is on of my favorite recipe. Thank you! But I was wondering why you recommend in this recipe as well as in other recipes dried red chilies. In my local Asia supermarket they have fresh red Thai Chilies. Is there any specific reason for taking dried red chilies instead of fresh chilies?
I am soo excited to try this recipe tonight ! I tried your beef and broc last night and came out perfectly . The kids everyone loved it ! This is coming from someone with a culinary degree . Your blog has become a family favorite ! & I never follow recipes or read reviews you have changed me . Love it
this was my first attempt at making this dish. gotta say that i'm blown away that it turned out like it did. super stoked! my ol' lady loved it but i think next time i will make a couple changes here and there. i used the chinese rice vinegar and to me it seemed to overpower a little bit so next time i'll either up the sugar or lower the amount of vinegar. either way, it was delicious and with a little twist of my own i think i'll enjoy this dish often. thanks a ton! much appreciated.
Gen . TSO CHICKEN absolutly one of the best dished ever, I did make a few adjustments as asian ingredients are as rare as snow on the beach here. I lacked the red chiles so I used Peruvian dried yellow hot pepper paste 1/4 tsp. it tasted fabulose..will make again.
I just cooked this recipe and it was absolutely superb! I look forward to trying some of the others on the site. The funny thing is that General Tso's Chicken is totally unheard of here in the UK. You would not find it on any takeaway menu and I have never come across it. I was fascinated to read about how popular it is in the United States!
the recipe says to marinate the chicken in the wine then mix all the ingredients for sauce so is there wine in the sauce as listed in recipe.
What if I bake the chicken in panko crumbs instead of corn starch? I don't really like deep frying things at home for safety issues and I love baked chicken.
Can I omit or substitute the Shaoxing wine?
What kind of dried chilled you suggest made it with Mega hot ones was a little hot lol
I like always send in my email
YUMMY!!! Definitely keeping this recipe in my rotation. My husband HATES chicken and he even had 2 helpings!!! So much healthier than going to the restaurant too! Thank you :)
I could not get to a recipe, and that really annoyed me. What is the point of posting if none of the links work? If you can't be user-friendly, then don't post at all.
I don't drink so when I went in to the state liquor store for the Shaoxing wine I was a little shocked at the $60+ for any of the varieties. You seem to use that in a lot of your recipes. Is the dry sherry as you stated above a substitute for all your recipes? Is there a less expensive wine that could be use? Love your recipes.
I love your recipes. I do, however, have a pet peeve about how you put a bunch of pictures on one page, but then I have to click to another page to get the recipe. It is extremely irritating to me!
Is there any substitution for the wine?
This sounds so-o-o-o good! Sent picture and recipe url to my sister who also loves General Tso's chicken!

Hi: 9° Lo:2°
By Carl Jackson Friday 04 January 2013 Updated: 04/01 16:17
SIX-year-old Lilly Fitzpatrick has been lauded as her family's 'little hero' after her quick-thinking actions saved her dad's life.
Her father Dave, 42, who suffers from Type 1 diabetes, started having a hypoglycemic attack and had become extremely lethargic and unresponsive at his Longbridge home on Groveley Lane, at around 6.30pm on Wednesday (January 2).
Despite being scared and upset, brave youngster Lilly got his Glucogel from the cupboard and applied it to his cheek and gave him Jelly Babies after the lid on a bottle of Lucozade was too tight for her to undo.
"I was really worried and crying. He was on the table, going a bit funny and his mouth was dripping.
"I knew he was low," Lilly said.
After trying to call her mum and family members, but not managing to get through, she dialled 999, and told emergency services what was happening.
"They kept telling me to ask my dad questions, so I did, but he didn't say anything.
"I kept asking but he kept saying nothing." Lilly added.
The Cofton Primary School pupil, who wants to work in a hospital when she is older, said the police, ambulance and paramedics came and starting tending to her dad, while she went in to the conservatory and looked after her 16-month-old little brother Jacob.
"They put something on his arm to see if he was low, and he was really, really low," she added.
In fact, Dave's sugar level was around 0.2mmol/l (millimoles per litre), when the target level for most adults with Type 1 diabetes is between 4mmol/l and 9mmol/l depending on when they last ate.
Mum, Michelle Lewis, who was at work at the time, heaped praise on her daughter and said if it was not for her actions Dave would likely have slipped into a coma and could have died.
"It's saved his life, what she's done.
"He wouldn't have been able to bring himself around.
"I am just so glad I have told her what to do.
"I don't like the kids having to deal with adult stuff but it's part of life with us.
"I didn't realise how well she took it all on board, but it obviously sunk in because she dealt with it all on her own," she said.
Michelle, who suffers from Rheumatoid Arthritis herself, admitted she relied on Lilly to help her around the home and to help get her brother Jacob ready.
She added: "She is so caring about everyone and will be one of the young carers.
"We're going to Toys R Us at the weekend and she will be getting the biggest doll there.
"She's our little superhero."

Gladiatus Overview
Gladiatus is a text & image only browser game that takes players to the days of ancient Rome. In order to equip themselves and earn enough gold to train their stats, players must complete quests and fight monsters outside town. Gladiatus is a slow paced game where each combat encounter takes 10 or more minutes to resolve themselves with no player input. This is an ideal game to play on one tab while web surfing or working on the other. The game world is broken into two main areas, town and the wilderness.
Town Locations - Work, Arena (PvP), Tavern (quests), Training, Weapon Smith, Armor Smith, General Goods, Alchemist, Jeweller, Auction House, Market.
Wilderness Locations – Hermit, Misty Mountains, Grimwood, Barbarian Village, Bandit Camp, Ancient Temple, Pirate Harbor, and Wolf Cave.

Gladiatus Full Review
By, Erhan Altay
Gladiatus is a turn based browser game set in ancient Rome. Released back in 2007 by Gameforge, the same German publisher behind other browser games including Ogame, Ikariam, and BiteFight, Gladiatus should not be confused with a sequel titled Gladius 2. While Gladius 2 has real time combat and a game world to explore, Gladiatus relies solely on text & images. Combat proceeds in a series of rounds in which the game calculates the actions based on the participants stats and equipment. This style of gameplay is much more casual oriented as it does not require players to constantly monitor the game.
Gladiatus has found a large global audience and has already been translated into dozens of languages which players can switch between on the home page. There are currently 13 servers but the game will take you to a random one when you first click 'sign up.' The only way to really tell what server you're dealing with is to check the URL. It should say something like 's6.gladiatus.com' with the '6′ being your server. If you plan to play with friends, be sure you all manually head to the same server's registration page and remember the number. After a short break, I had forgotten which server I signed up on and simply tried every single one starting at 1. Luckily 6 wasn't far off. After registration, players simply chose their character's gender and ready to play. Players are taken to their overview page where they can see their character's equipment, inventory, stats, and their very own referral link. The referral link is styled a 'trap link' and earns you gold when others around the internet click it. The game recommends placing the referral link in your forum signatures but I leave it to you to decide how annoying you want to be with it.
Blade For Hire
Since there is no actual client, players must use the menu to the left to navigate through the game. There are two main areas in the world of Gladiatus, inside town and outside town. Interaction with NPC shop keepers, training, accepting quests, and enlisting in the arena are all down inside town while combat expeditions against AI controlled enemies are done outside. It is possible to simply head outside and start grinding but I recommend hitting up the tavern first and accepting a kill quest to help make combat more rewarding. Players can also visit the 'Work' area in town and accept odd jobs such as farming, fishing, or baking but this should be done after hunting. Once outside, there are several areas displayed on the map. Players can use either the map or the menu to the left to navigate this region. Certain quests may require you to kill certain monsters, so for example if your objective is to kill barbarians, head to the Barbarian Village. The game will automatically pit you against a foe near your level despite which area you're in so feel free to explore all the zones.
A Long Expedition…
Once players enter an outside area, they will be presented with three expedition options. Ten minute battles cost 2 expedition points, 20 minute battles are 4 points and 30 minute battles cost 6 points. Players have a maximum of 12 expedition points but regenerate them at a rate of 1 per hour. Once you start your expedition, you'll be placed in battle with a random AI foe and will have to wait for the counter to end before starting another fight. Players can still navigate around the site while fighting but cannot start new fights either outside or at the arena. Gladiatus has tens of thousands of players around the world so obviously it's doing something right but I simply couldn't get myself to feel excited about the gameplay. Most browser games that require you to wait like this are strategy games where the player is in charge of an entire city or empire but here I'm just controlling a single gladiator. There is little to do while fighting and not much to do besides fighting. The major draw must be the casual nature of the game that allows players to only spend a few moments at a time managing their character while performing other tasks online. One feature that I did like in Gladiatus was the inventory management. Your bag and equipment slots look like something out of an action RPG like Diablo. Players can drag and drop new gear they loot off their foes very easily though once equipped, equipment becomes 'soulbound' and untradable.
For Honor and Glory!
Encounters may be dull but they were never meant to be the main attraction. PvP plays an important part in Gladiatus and all players are in constant danger of being raided by others. Those who want to prove their worth can head to the arena and battle for honor points and to improve their ranking on the server-wide listings but new players will probably have to spend at least a few days grinding it out against AI monsters in order to properly equip themselves first. Besides the weapon and armor vendors, players can attempt to purchase gear at the auction house but should be very careful when doing so. For some reason Germans don't seem to understand the concept of an auction. Many browser games developed by Germans such as Dark Orbit and Sea Fight have auctions in which players who do not win still have to pay out their bids. This system is closer to a casino or a game of roulette than an auction house so make sure you know what you're getting into.
Rubies are a Gladiators Best Friend
The premium currency in Gladiatus are rubies which can be purchased at a rate of 8 to 15 cents each depending on the quantity. These can be used to speed up any encounter, perform certain jobs unavailable to free users, and purchase gear much faster than having to accumulate gold. But even more importantly, players can upgrade their character to a 'Centurion' for 14 days at a cost of 14 rubies. Centurions receive enormous benefits including an additional 12 encounter point cap for a total of 24, halved encounter times and halved encounter costs. This makes it at least 4x easier for paying players to progress than free players and poses a severe balance issue. How much this bothers you is a personal matter but it certainly doesn't make it impossible to play for free. For those not willing to pay, the best way to kill time while waiting for expedition points to regenerate is to head to the Work NPC in town and volunteer our services as a farmer for several hours.
Final Verdict: Fair
Gladiatus is a casual browser based game with a small game world and slow paced combat. While gameplay is mostly a matter of waiting, the varied selection of equipment and stat distributions adds an element of skill to the game.

Easy-to-use, Portable 3D Measuring System
Nikon Metrology announces the release of its easy-to-use intelligent Portable 3D Measuring System, the P3D. Measuring a product's performance and design has become increasingly important, not only for research & development, but for production and quality control.
The compact P3D NC-2323S is easy to carry and can be operated with a push of a button and without a computer. Unlike 3D measuring systems currently in use, it does not require professional expertise or technical knowledge to operate.
With its intelligent functions, portability, and immediacy, it is ideally suited for quick, on-site measurements, such as those required on the automotive production floor.
*P3D: Portable 3D
Key Features
1. Easy operation
The simple GUI* allows first-time users immediate and intuitive operation. Capture 3D measuring data by simply moving the lens over an object and pressing the shutter button.. The projection system directs a laser beam onto a micro-mirror, made using a semiconductor micromachining technique, in order to project an optical pattern onto the object.
*Graphical User Interface
2. Small, lightweight and intelligent
The compact body includes a sensor, operator and controller; enabling users to check the data immediately and conduct simple measurements. The P3D has been made small, light and energy efficient using the newly developed MEMS* projector and laser source.
Moreover, it works with both an AC adaptor and a battery, enabling use on production floors where available power sources are limited
*MEMS: Micro Electro Mechanical System
3. PC coordination
The newly developed P3D Viewer software meets a number of requirements, including data backup, 3D data reconstruction under different conditions, checking and editing, 3D data stitching and 3D printer coordination.
NEW iNEXIV VMA-4540 SYSTEMS FOR PRECISE MEASUREMENT OF LARGER SAMPLES
Nikon Metrology announces two new CNC Video Measuring Systems, the iNEXIV VMA-4540V and 4540. These products offer a wide field of view, easy operation, and allow the measurement of both large and tall mechanical parts. iNEXIV CNC Video Measuring Systems automatically inspect the dimensions of a variety of precision equipment and electric parts, using optical measuring and image processing technologies. By precisely detecting the edges of the sample using CCD camera images and data processing, the measurement of complex sample shapes is possible.
The cost–effective VMA-4540V/4540 is an addition to the iNEXIV series. It offers a larger measurement stroke than the iNEXIV VMA-2520. While The VMA-4540V offers video measurement only, the VMA-4540 additionally provides optional touch probe measurement.
Suitable measuring range for large parts of or multi-part inspection
The large 450 x 400 x 200 mm stage stroke supports the high-speed measurement of large printed substrates and tall plastic-injection-molded parts, and the mass inspection of multiple parts simultaneously, resulting in a significant reduction in inspection costs.
Clear images with wide field of view
A wide Field-of-View (FOV) of up to 13 mm x 10 mm (at 0.35x) makes the search and alignment of measuring targets easy. An excellent Apochromat objective lens with high NA (0.11) and low distortion, designed especially for the iNEXIV series, to provide crisp, clear images. The VMA-4540V/4540 is equipped with episcopic, diascopic and 8-segment ring LED illuminators to suit the sample shape. Combining these illuminators and adjusting light intensity and direction, makes the accurate detection of low contrast edges possible.
Fast and accurate vision Auto Focus (AF)
The VMA-4540V/4540 series is equipped with highly repeatable vision AF that offers high-speed, high-precision focusing of sample surfaces or edges, reference-plane settings and height/depth measurement. Non-contact measurement using vision AF has the benefit; it does not damage or deform parts. Laser AF is available as an option, enabling the height measurement of flat surfaces with high repeatability at any magnification or depth of focus.
Tactile 3D shape measurement (option)
The VMA-4540 is touch-probe ready and can accommodate optional Renishaw® TP20 or TP200 touch probes. Touch probes enable the measurement of 3D parts when video measuring methods are unable to inspect lengths and angles in areas that not visible from above. A single Teaching File captures both video measurements and touch probe measurements into one.

Hi JIm, I was going through some images here on Find.a.Grave and noticed a wonderful photo that you took of the entrance to the Willamette National Cemetery in Oregon. How did you capture an image with such clarity? Magic in your camera lens? Do you do any editing and if so, what program do you use? I am always interested in knowing how other contributors have such wonderful images! Thanks, Helen Murphy, Tennessee

- Spoiler: show
Info: (Outdate)
- Spoiler: show
- Ronaldinho Gaúcho, after a string of poor performances and a season plagued by injuries with FC Barcelona resulted in him being dropped off the plans of new coach, Guardiola. Meanwhile AC Milan came as a rescuer for Ronaldinho and saving Ronaldinho Magic from going to English Premier League. For the record Ronaldinho started his career with Grêmio in Brazil. He then moved to Paris Saint-German in 2001. On the back of a great World Cup 2002 Campaign he finally moved to FC Barcelona in 2003.
It was at Barcelona where Ronaldinho Magic reached its height. He quickly became one of the legends of the sport. His performance against the top clubs in Europe earned him two World Player of the Year and a Balon d'Or awards. Ronaldinhos Position as the one of the best Barcelona players of all time cannot be questioned, but his last two season were nothing special by his standard. So it was inevitable he concede the theatre of Camp Nou to Lionel Messi and part with FC Barcelona.
Ronaldinhos AC Milan career started in a very bright fashion, scoring a goal against Inter in the Derby and some more goals followed. He finished his first season at Milan with 10 goals from 32 appearances in all competitions. After a good start to the season, Ronaldinho struggled with fitness, and was often played from the bench to end a disappointing first season for Milan.
After such a fall from grace, most people turned their backs on the once the worlds greatest player. Many people thought he was finished, there were even rumors of him retiring. However, regardless of all this negativity, Ronaldinho started to find form again. This season under Leonardo, Ronaldinho has moved back to a more familiar role on the left flank, playing as a free roaming support striker. As we all know he no longer posses most of the physical qualities that once made him so dangerous. So it's obvious that he can no longer play in the same manner as before. Realising this, Ronaldinho adapted his game and now focuses on his vision and playmaking qualities, while still using his incredible agility and dribbling skills to create space and opportunities to deliver devastating passes to his team mates. This season, Ronaldinho took like a fish to water to his new role under Leonardo's attacking trio, providing his teammates with creativity, availability, deadly passes and not to mention, a dozen goals. After many inspired performances this year, most notably against Juventus, he finished the serie A season with 12 goals and 14 assists. His creative attacking role became the focal point of AC Milan and helped them to secure a spot in next year's champions league. After such a successful season, Ronaldinho has established himself as one of the greatest players in Italy, at the heart of AC Milan's attack.

Customer Ratings:
I don't wear makeup on a daily basis because I'm retired. When I do go out with makeup on, this remover works good. I like that it's not oily & non-irritating for my sensitive skin. My eyes are sensitive to oil removers or skin care with oil.
I agree with some of the other reviewers, a oil would be better.
I found that I have to wipe my eyes 2-3 times because it won't get everything off the first time. It does feel gentle, but it isn't as effective as I'd like it to be.
Hello, and thank you for sharing your experience with us - we're sorry to hear this didn't work as expected for you! Please contact a member of our Customer Care team for information on a possible exchange or refund.
This is a fast-acting, non-oily, really-works makeup remover. Now when will Paula's company produce makeup remover cloths for travel??
Being a big fan of PC (I own it all) I found this to be disappointing. The formula feels dated compared to the makeup removers that are available now, like water-soluble cleansing oils (which are great for oily acne-prone skin no matter what Paula says....sorry Paula!), miscellar water, or the higher-quality wipes. Please make a proper full-face makeup remover, like a cleansing oil that would be better than everyone else's (with no fragrance, alcohol, or irritants)! Cleansers just aren't enough.
I wear a lot of mascara and eyeliner and have struggled with other products that require too much rubbing, multiple applications, and they don't even remove all of the makeup. This remover is somehow light and gentle but is a work horse and manages to get my make-up off in one go. Amazing. Love it.
I am new to Paula's Choice and let me tell you how happy I am with this product. It is a little pricey, but your money will be well spent. It does not have an odor, it does not sting or cause any irritation on my sensitive skin. I usually use this after I have washed my face to get the stubborn makeup (if any) and with just a little bit, it does the job. Very nice product!!
This deserves 5 stars... I gave if 4 because it is pricey. It removes my waterproof eyemake with no irritation. You must hold the cotton pad soaked with it on your eyes for at least 15 seconds of more. I sometimes use a soaked q-tip and gently stroke it on the base of my lashes. This is the only eyemakeup remover that does not irritate my eyes. It also removes residual makeup that I thought the facial (not Paula's) towelette had removed. Best makeup remover for sensitive skin!
This is the best eye makeup remover I've ever used! I'm in my early thirties, with oily skin, and I wear eye makeup almost every day. This remover takes off my eye makeup almost effortlessly (I apply it to a cotton pad). I barely need to use any effort. Love this!
This eye makeup remover is the best I have ever used; it's not super oily like most makeup removers (Almay pads, Lancome), it works without having to rub hard, and it's the ONLY one that doesn't irritate my eyes. When I use other makeup removers, my eyes are bloodshot the next morning no matter how careful I am. I'm also a contact wearer and I did have to remove my eyeliner recently because I messed up and it didn't cause any problems. My only wish is that it came in a 3oz bottle for travel!
I don't wear makeup that often, but when I do I like to use a makeup remover or towelette before cleansing. The towelettes I had been using were very drying, especially around the eye area. So I was in the market for a makeup remover. I found Paula's Choice & picked out a skin care line, then came back later & saw she had this product. So I bought it & I love it! It is so gentle; no need to rub! Very moisturizing also! Don't forget to shake well before use!
Very gentle to eyes & skin, and no greasy feel. Not tested on animals is good!
This is my favourite MU remover. It doesn't sting and doesn't leave a greasy residue. It also is pretty thorough at removing my eye MU, but sometimes I have to use a tiny bit in the morning to get the last traces. LOVE.
Love this stuff, sometimes it's all I use to fully remove makeup because I can't let fresh lash extensions get wet. I just wipe till the cotton pad stays clean.
Typically I wash my face twice to remove makeup. I used my sample of PC makeup remover with a cotton ball and cu-tip. I was impressed with how well it removed my makeup and left no greasy or dry feeling. Washed my face as usually, but just once. Applied my PC PM products and notice that my skin feels even smoother. Which is surprising considering PC products already do a great job. I am truly impressed.
I use and love PCs skin care products so thought I would try this makeup remover. I didn't like the consistency as it was very runny. I would definitely prefer more of a gel. I just wasn't happy with the way it felt on my skin especially around my eyes when removing shadow and mascara (I use PC mascara) and after. I really wanted to love this...but don't.
Hi there! We're sorry the Gentle Touch Makeup Remover didn't workout for you! Please contact our Customer Care Team for assistance with a refund or exchange.
I really like this makeup remover. It removes all eye makeup & long wearing lipsticks too. I use a damp cotton ball with a little water, & works just fine for me.
To use this economically, I first take off some of my eye makeup with my normal face washing process. Then, I use thin cotton pads to remove the remaining eye makeup. The thin cotton pads work much better than cotton balls because both side of the pad can be used. Cotton balls soak up and waste product. I also buy the cotton pads at the Dollar Store, where they are less than half the price at Walmart ($1 vs. ~$2).
Based on the reviews thought it was worth trying this remover as I dont wear much eyemakeup and never wear mascara or foundation. I have sensitive skin and eyes and wanted something easy and gentle. Very disappointed to find that not only did it take 3-5 applications (I left it to sit for a bit before wiping off as instructions say), but it left a 'slick' film on my skin and around my eyes that required another cleanser to remove! Like Anne, its too much work and hate how it left my eyes fuzzy
After using PC's remover, I knew it was good. A recent out of stock situation forced to find an alternative. I went to Beautypedia for an alternative I picked the one that was ranked as a 'best'. Well, it wasn't a 'best' for me. It felt oily, and didn't removed all my mascara, and that's regular NOT waterproof mascara. Thank god PC's is back in inventory, I ordered 3, will re-order after I open the 2nd one, will not be without again. Now I know it's not good it's great!!!!
I use many of Paula's Choice (PC) face & body treatments as well as cleansers & toners 1-2 times/day. I also use PC's Super-Light Wrinkle Defense & Best Face Forward Foundation. Before cleansing and toning, I have to use copious amounts of Gentle Touch Makeup Remover on 4-6 cotton balls to remove all moisturizer & foundation. As I am on a tight budget, this would render a competitively-priced makeup remover pricey per oz used more than 1-2/week added to the cost of my other PC products.
Do yourself a favor and at least try the sample size.
I did and I will never be without this product as long as Paula makes it!
It's That different.
No creepy filmy residue that reddens your eyes and make you feel partially blinded.
After decades of trying, I found a makeup remover I can love!
i was hoping this was going to be a good remover for long-wearing mascara but sadly, it isn't. It takes about 3 saturated jumbo cotton balls of this formula to fully remove my drugstore mascara. I quickly used up the whole bottle but won't repurchase because the amount of product I have to use to actually remove the makeup is cost-prohibitive. I'm sure this is a fantastic face and eye makeup remover but not for the shellac-type mascara they're putting out now.
I'm a regular user of PC products , and wanted to make a switch from my expensive 'sensitive eye' makeup remover. I don't wear much makeup, and none of it is waterproof, so I was surprised at how much effort it took to remove with this product. I even started saturating a pad and holding it to my eye for 30 seconds, but I still needed to go back at it a second or third time. And - every morning - there would be traces of eye makeup darkening my eyes. Disappointing. But at least it was gentle
Hi Anne! Thank you for sharing your experience, and we're sorry it didn't match that of others. Please contact our Customer Care Team, who would be happy to help with an exchange or refund.
I have been using this eye makeup remover for years and for the first time ever I forgot to repurchase before I ran out!!! So I thought I'd just run to the store and pick up another brand that has had good reviews but I was so disappointed, the brand name one from the store was not nearly as good as this one. I will be reordering this and now I will make sure never to be without it again.
Love Paula's eye make up remover! Have used many high end brands, to name drop a few Mary Kay and Lancôme, and Paula's is just as good at a fraction of the price! Thank you Paula ;)

About 3 Doors Down
From the deep, dark bowels of Mississippi, 3 Doors Down kicked in the door with their greatest hit "Kryptonite" and now they're setting out on the road! Break the spell on upcoming 3 Door Down tour dates!About 3 Doors Down
It's 3DD tickets time and they are moving like Superman! The rock band from Mississippi that brought us "Kryptonite" is going back on the road! 3 Doors down tickets are sure to sell out for their upcoming tour and the new 3 Doors Down album, Time of My Life. The super guys from Escatawpa - vocalist Brad Arnold, guitarist Matt Roberts and bassist Todd Harrell - have been dishing up the hot stuff since '96, though most consider their landmark album, 2000's The Better Life, to be that which best characterises the 3 Doors Down sound. Kryptonite is certainly responsible for selling 3 Doors Down tour tickets without any help from other tracks; the song has become a cult favorite among air-guitarists and real musicians everywhere. 3 Doors Down are no one-hit-wonders, though; the 6-times platinum Better Life also produced the gritty Loser, which occupied the top spot on the US Mainstream Rock Chart for a record-breaking 21 weeks!
3 Doors Down tickets are sure to be a hot item when their tour kicks off. The 3 Doors Down schedule is available on this page and you should be warned that 3 Doors Down tickets are as popular as ever. 3 Doors Down concert tickets appeal to anyone who loves grinding, roiling sound, interesting topical lyrics and hidden harmonies. What other post-grunge hard rock band could conquer the Mainstream chart like they did? Buy your 3DD tickets now and catch this meteor before it returns to Krypton forever!

Garage, police facility draw comments at Dover Speak Out
Tuesday, January 22, 2013
DOVER — Among many topics at Monday night's Citizen Speak Out, the proposed parking garage and police facility were of the most concern.
Carrier said the public would have the opportunity to speak at a number of open discussions.
"We don't have to decide on anything fast," Carrier said. " I totally agree with you who have been here for many, many years. It is scary to see all of this stuff going up, views being blocked, traffic congestion ... We are not doing anything fast. Really."
Weeden told Huml that the extension of the waterfront development project contract is currently being looked over.
"We budget $300,000," Carrier said, adding it is hard to budget for snow, as the city is unable to predict the season's weather.

"Police officer perjury in court to justify illegal dope searches is commonplace. One of the dirty little not-so-secret secrets of the criminal justice system is undercover narcotics officers intentionally lying under oath. It is a perversion of the American justice system that strikes directly at the rule of law. Yet it is the routine way of doing business in courtrooms everywhere in America."Read more »

TAMPA, April 12, 2012 — While the media continue to ignore compelling evidence that the Republican primary race is much closer than they are reporting, some Ron Paul supporters are nevertheless thinking about what they might do if Paul does not get the Republican nomination.
Throughout this election cycle, Gary Johnson's name has been omnipresent as a libertarian alternative. There's only one problem. Gary Johnson is not a libertarian.Read more »

Fuzz Pedals
ZVex Fat Fuzz FactoryThe Z Vex Fat Fuzz Factory – Handpainted takes the legendary fuzz that put Z Vex on the map and adds thunderous low end via a 3-way sub switch that veers dangerously close to synthy territory, all in a gorgeous, handpainted enclosure.$329.00
ZVex Fuzz FactoryThe ZVex Fuzz Factory is the most unique Fuzz pedal ever. It features an NOS 60's Germanium fuzz circuit with unprecedented control over gating, compression, and "stab" which sends the Zvex Fuzz Factory into oscillation freakout mode.$299.00
ZVex Fuzz Factory 7A new take on our original company flag ship Fuzz Factory. The Fuzz Factory 7 features a 9-position rotary sub switch that opens the pedal up to an astounding new bot-tom end as well as thin, reedy fuzzes.$449.00
ZVex Fuzz ProbeZVex Fuzz Probe mates theremin control to the "Stab" control on the Z.Vex Fuzz Factory, resulting in utter fuzz pedal lunacy. It's like a guitar tech twisting the knob for you while you rock out.$349.00
ZVex FuzzoloThe Fuzzolo is a silicon fuzz with a rich subby ripping texture and aggressive midrange, with plenty of volume on tap. Because of the way it preserves the bottom end of your signal, it works great on both guitar and bass.$129.00
ZVex Machine Fuzz GeneratorThe Z.Vex Machine is an fuzzy, ugly machete-wielding beast built specifically to cut through the mix and help your other distortion pedals sound meaner. No distortion pedal like the Machine exists on earth. Where nothing is happening, this pedal happens.$319.00
ZVex Octane 3The Z.Vex Octane 3 is one wild fuzz pedal, with germanium diode and transistor fuzz science used with a ring mod to generate wacky upper octave tones. The Octane 3 results in demented chord voicings and solos that will likely get you fired from your band.$319.00
ZVex Vexter Fat Fuzz FactoryThe Z Vex Vexter Fat Fuzz Factory takes the legendary fuzz that put Z Vex on the map and adds thunderous low end via a 3-way sub switch that veers dangerously close to synthy territory.$199.00
Zvex Vexter Fuzz ProbeThe Zvex Vexter Fuzz Probe is here. The same great features and tone as the hand-painted version in a stripped down (graphically) package that even unemployment can afford. The Zvex Vexter Fuzz Probe is the pedal for the new recession.$219.00
ZVex Vexter Series Fuzz Factory
ZVex Fuzz FactoryThe ZVex Vexter Series Fuzz Factory is the same as the original hand-painted Fuzz Factory pedal, only without the hand-painting. A hand silk-screened graphic is used in order to put the Vexter Fuzz Factory in reach of everyone's budget.$179.00
ZVex Vextron Mastotron FuzzOn time and beyond expectations, the new ZVex Vextron Mastotron fuzz has arrived. Based on a silicon circuit design with features not seen before, the lush fuzz of the ZVex Vextron Mastotron will make a nice addition to your sonic palatte.$149.00
ZVex Woolly Mammoth Bass FuzzThe ZVex Woolly Mammoth Fuzz pedal puts out sub octaves below the range of human hearing. A glorious, rich sounding fuzz box for both bass and guitar, but voiced particularly for gut rumbling subharmonic bass destruction. ZVex Woolly Mammoth, wow!$359.00

Graham does his part as Ravens advance
Monday, January 21, 2013
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — His Baltimore Ravens had just held Tom Brady and the high-powered Patriots to 13 total points —- and a scoreless second half.
Last week, he picked off Peyton Manning twice, once for a touchdown and once in overtime, to help the Ravens take a 38-35 win in the divisional round. On Sunday, he held his own against Wes Welker in the slot, going head-to-head with one of the greatest quarterback-receiver tandems in NFL history.
New England's lone touchdown came in the second quarter, a 1-yard pass from Brady to Welker that left Graham hollering at teammate Chykie Brown. Graham appeared to signal to his teammate before the snap, but Brown cleared out on a crossing pattern by Brandon Lloyd and Graham watched Welker score on an easy pitch and catch to the front pylon.
"It feels amazing," Graham said of reaching the Super Bowl. "We came in here, no one thought we could do it, and we did the impossible."

In our era of electricity and silicon, electrical supplies are things that you simply cannot live without. Whether you are making improvements to enhance the quality of your lifestyle or increase your property's marketability—or are involved in commercial construction—electrical supplies will be on the list of the most important things that you will need, along with building supplies, plumbing, lighting and tools.
There is a wide variety of electrical supplies on the market today, including dimmers, timer and light switches, electrical outlets, motion sensors, electrical wall plates, transformers and boxes, plugs and connectors and many other things that are remarkably useful in the most practical ways. For the sake of understanding, we will divide them in five groups:
- Switches and Other Lighting Controls. These devices are used to control one or more light fixtures. All of them allow you to save as much energy (and therefore money) as possible by turning the light on and off (light switches), adjusting the brightness level (dimmer switches), monitoring and regulating the light level (photocells), turning lights off when the space is unoccupied (motions sensors) and programming lights to turn off (light timer switches).
- Electrical Enclosures. This type of electrical supplies includes electrical outlets, wall plates, media enclosures and electrical fittings used to enclose conductors and wires. They are indispensable at housing and protecting wire connections.
- Electro-Mechanical Devices. Electro-mechanical devices include electrical transformers, plugs and connectors. While electrical transformers are used to generate, transmit and distribute electrical power at the most economical voltage level, plugs are employed to make electrical connection and join electrical circuits.
- Electronic devices. Electronic devices range from electronic ballasts that provide a smooth current flow and keep an overvoltage from damaging electronic equipment to electrical test equipment such as light, insulation and power meters and circuit testers.
- Audio & Video Equipment. Audio and video equipment allows home users of Blu-ray and DVD discs to get movie theater sound, and make all music sound good and well balanced. These useful devices include system-volume controls and satellite, in-wall, ceiling and outdoor speakers.
Whether you want to make your home life more fun, increase your energy savings or prolong the life of your devices, high quality electrical supplies are indispensable for the task.

Midwest Living Review
Bacaro opened as a wine bar in 2001, and there's still an impressive rack filled with wine bottles on the wall behind the bar. But Bacaro has blossomed into a full-fledged restaurant, serving a seasonal menu that uses local produce, meats and cheeses from Champaign-area sources such as Blue Moon Farm and Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery. The restaurant has a sleek, cool design, with dark purple walls and a silver-painted ceiling. The tables are covered with white tablecloths and lit with disc-shape oil lamps. The wall of the men's room has framed covers from vintage men's magazines such as "Playboy" and "Rogue." Because the menu changes depending on what's in season, it's hard to predict precisely what will be offered, but typical entrees include pan-roasted sea bass, braised veal osso bucco, seared sea scallops, grilled rabbit loin, pan-roasted duck breast and grilled ribeye, each with a creative combination of ingredients. The crusty slices of bread that come with every meal are served with butter in a little ceramic bowl that resembles an avocado; there's black sea salt on top of the butter, an interesting touch. The salads are excellent, including a simple dish of greens, in which every leaf seemed to be coated with just the right amount of the slightly sweet vinaigrette. During our visit, everything we tried was excellent except for the slightly disappointing main dish, a shrimp linguini with zucchini and garlic. The pasta and ingredients were fresh and light, but they could have used more seasoning of some sort. For dessert, the almond olive oil cake was fluffy and moist, topped with cool cherry sorbet and chunks of crunchy almond brittle. In addition to wines, Bacaro makes great cocktails, including specials like the Tuscan punch, a deliciously tart drink resembling sangria. Pastas cost about $17, entrees $28, appetizers $8.

Splinter Bike - a bicycle built ENTIRELY out of wood
The Splinter Bike has undergone extensive bench testing but has not yet been out on a track
Article Summary
Just over six months after making a joke bet in his front garden, Michael Thompson has lived up to his idle boast of being able to make anything out of wood. Unlike other bike designs where wood is just one of several materials used in the construction - like the duo from Audi and Renovo, which has a hardwood frame - every part of the Splinter Bike is made from either birch plywood, Lignum Vitae, Ekki or an old broom handle. His friend, and accomplished triathlete, James Tully now has the unenviable and certainly uncomfortable task of riding the 31 kg (68 pound) engineering marvel into the record books.
