Reviews for Chicken Cacciatore
Sort By :
"Did not use dry red wine, I used 1 cup of water. Tasteless! Was very surprised after adding all those ingredients. Very disappointed."
"Good, especially after the first day (take the meat off the bones and add back to the sauce). In my opinion, the sauce needs salt."
"One word: AMAZING! It's been permanently added to my recipe collection. Even my SUPER picky husband loved it. Actually, I'm making it as our first meal in our brand new house next week to break in the new kitchen. YUMMY!"
"This recipe has become a favorite in our family. I make it according to the recipe, doubling everything, through the 30 min. cooking. Then I freeze it in 2 cup containers. When ready to use it, I brown my chicken, beef, sausage or whatever I am using, add the thawed sauce, cover and cook for the additional 45 - 60 min. Delicious!"
"I've been meaning to try this recipe for years. Now all I can do is kick myself for not doing it sooner. Everyone at the dinner table raved about it. Instead of the whole chicken, I used an equivalent weight of halved chicken breasts and legs."

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Carol Wilkins leaned over the side of her father's wheelchair and handed him the small red box, a heart-shaped cutout revealing its contents: a weathered, bent silver dog tag.
"Oh, Daddy, look," Wilkins exclaimed as her 90-year-old father opened it, his eyes beaming and smile wide. "They're back."
Sixty-nine years after losing his dog tag on the battlefields of southern France, Willie Wilkins reclaimed it Wednesday after a trans-Atlantic effort to return it to him that started more than a decade ago in a French backyard and ended with a surprise ceremony in Newark City Hall.
"I am so happy," Carol Wilkins said. "You don't know what joy is on my heart for what you have done for my father."
In August 1944, Willie Wilkins was an Army corporal fighting in the Allied invasion of southern France. Amid the horrors of battle, Wilkins's job was one of the grimmest. A quartermaster, Wilkins was responsible for removing and identifying the bodies of dead American servicemen and having them buried or transported back to the United States.
At some point during the invasion, Willie Wilkins's silver dog tag somehow slipped off his neck.
"It could have been an arm, it could have been a hip that dragged it off, because he was picking up dead bodies," Carol Wilkins said. "He said it was horrible. Blood everywhere. Parts. All he knew was to pick up those bodies for the family members of dead soldiers."
Willie Wikins returned to Newark and work on the assembly line at Western Electric in nearby Kearny. He was a happy man who doted on his only daughter, but his service as a quartermaster took an enormous toll. He had a nervous breakdown and post-traumatic stress disorder and retired at age 44, Carol Wilkins said.
Willie Wilkins would sometimes talk about his war experience, especially when Carol was young, mentioning that he lost his dog tags. He and his family were convinced the small medallion would remain a tangible piece of the history of the invasion, buried somewhere in what were once the bloody battlefields of Provence.
In a backyard 4,000 miles from Newark, Anne-Marie Crespo was tilling the soil around an olive tree tucked into a corner when she found the dog tag. She was enjoying an early spring day in 2001 in Istres, France, a village about 35 miles northwest of Marseille.
Crespo hit a small piece of metal stamped with a name and numbers. She brought it inside, cleaned it and tried to straighten out the tag's bend, only to break it slightly.
Crespo knew the tag belonged to a soldier and kept it on a bookcase shelf. She presumed the soldier died on the battlefield, and held a ceremony at her home to honor Wilkins and other American war dead.
"I often thought of this poor soldier dead for FRANCE + FREEDOMS," Crespo later wrote in a handwritten letter to Carol Wilkins, dated April 13, 2013. "WILLIE WILKINS what a pretty name, as it sounds good for us French, for me anyway."

Originally held at Olympia in Greece between the 8th century BC and the 4th century AD, the Olympic Games returned in 1896 after a 1500 year hiatus. A few sports have been featured on every occasion since then, others have slipped into obscurity, some have found a new home within the Winter Olympics, and more continue to be introduced. One thing hasn't changed though, the colour of that elusive medal presented to the champion.
A circular chart displays the number of gold medals awarded within each sport throughout the years and a series of tables discloses the countries which obtained them.

Je Ladore!
Erik and Tammy Rorem are the proud owners of Je Ladore!, an inspiring boutique filled with authentic French décor and beautiful, one-of-a-kind vintage décor items with shabby chic flair and European style mixed with Tammys own unique style of decorating. Located in the Northeast Heights of Albuquerque in the Hoffmantown Shopping Center, Je Ladore! has been a huge success since opening its doors one and a half years ago.
Exclusive to New Mexico, there is nothing quite like Je Ladore! (I love it in French). Je Ladore! is not just another boutique, its an experience that engages all the senses from the moment one walks in the door. This unique experience facilitates conversation and genuine friendships in addition to finding beautiful gifts and vintage one-of-a-kind décor items, not common to New Mexico. Not only has Je Ladore! been embraced by the local French community, but numerous customers have also likened Je Ladore! to that of entering an antique shop in France without leaving Albuquerque! What Je Ladore! offers is an inviting atmosphere where customers, designers, and friends alike come to find inspiration, original and beautiful displays, and a wonderful collection of treasures and décor acquired from all over including France, under one roof.
Tammy attended a short introductory business seminar at the Albuquerque SBDC taught by Ray Garcia, which put her on a focused path to open the store. Since then, Ray has helped with identifying the fundamentals of operating a business, but most importantly he helped to clarify and better define the vision, the target customer, how to reach these customers, and how to get them in the store. Ray continues to offer support and guidance to ensure success. Tammy and Erik would like to express their gratitude for the support and guidance from the Albuquerque SBDC and the honor of being selected as the SBDC Success Client for 2014.
Currently, Je Ladore! is busting at the seams with growth, with expectations to expand in size and further the vision moving into 2015.

The 1998 Nero Award: March of Dimes 'Fiddles' While Birth Defects Rage On
The March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation won PCRM's tongue-in-cheek "Nero Award" for continuing to "fiddle" with animal experiments while birth defects continue at alarming rates. The trophy is named for the legendary Roman emperor who played his violin as Rome was destroyed by fire. He did nothing to halt the blaze and has since become a symbol of those who ignore crises.
The vast majority of birth defects monitored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have increased since 1979. Tracking down their causes requires detailed human population studies. Regrettably, the March of Dimes continues to spend a significant amount of funds on animal experiments.
March of Dimes-funded experiments have included giving nicotine, cocaine, and alcohol to animals, putting pigs' organs into monkeys, and the infamous study in which experimenters sewed kittens' eyes shut and left them in this condition for up to one year before killing them. Physicians and researchers already know how alcohol, nicotine, and cocaine affect a developing fetus, and cross-species organ transplants have proven to be abysmal failures. The March of Dimes itself admits that no clinically relevant advances came from its kitten-blinding experiments.
Virtually all known developmental hazards were identified through human population studies, including the thalidomide disaster, fetal rubella syndrome, the role of folic acid deficiency in spinal cord abnormalities, and the effects of lead and methyl mercury on development. Recently, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention discovered that magnesium sulfate may prevent nearly two-thirds of the cases of cerebral palsy and almost half of the cases of mental retardation in at-risk babies, a finding that won PCRM's 1998 Research Innovation Award.
The charred fiddle trophy was delivered to March of Dimes offices in Chicago, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Atlanta, Dallas, and Washington, D.C. PCRM urged the charity to direct all its funds into useful programs, such as human population studies and services for pregnant women, and put down its animal experimentation "fiddle" for good.

Interacting with customers and clients online is a smart business practice, but unfair attacks make companies and brands cringe Hanging out with friends and family on social networking sites is wonderful, but troublemakers can ruin the fun with their nasty and mean-spirited comments.
The good news is that there are proven best practices and techniques for getting people to be more civil online - even when they disagree and are angry.
In her book Civility in the Digital Age, Andrea Weckerle, founder of CiviliNation, uses case studies from companies like KitchenAid, Chick-fil-A, Groupon and others to illustrate the issues many companies and individuals face on the Internet. She provides an easy-to-follow blueprint for bringing digital civility and sanity back to the digital world.
"The Internet has irrevocably changed how we live and communicate, in many ways for the better. However, there's a certain contingent online who want to hijack the Internet for nefarious purposes and attack and silence those who oppose them," said Weckerle. "CiviliNation believes the Internet can be an embracing place where people safely come together to share ideas and work through even some of the most difficult issues of today. But people need the right skills and tools to make sure negative forces don't take over."
Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia and a CiviliNation board member, wrote the book's foreword and said, "Attacks on companies and individuals on the Internet are at an all-time high. We can be understanding about the human propensity for outbursts while insisting on a civil discussion working toward resolution of the issues."

The problem is that on a new installation of Deepin 2014 or an upgrade to Deepin 2014 in VirtualBox, the maximum screen resolution you get is 640x480. This screenshot shows how that looks.
And the solution is the same: Install xdiagnose and enable all the options under the Debug section. Use Deepin Store to install xdiagnose, then enable those options.
After the operation on XDiagnose, reboot the computer. Login, then enable the higher resolution from the Control Center.
You should now have a desktop with the right screen resolution.

The major impurity among gas species in the 2009 KSTAR campaign is water, up to 6.91 % of total pressure in the vacuum vessel. Various wall conditioning methods such as GDC, ICWC, and boronization are conducted to reduce water impurity which affects the plasma initiation. GDCs reduce water pressure to 1 × 10-9 mbar while several minutes of inter-shot ICWCs suppress water pressure around 3 × 10-9 mbar. Compared with the results from the KSTAR boronization, routinely performed inter-shot ICWCs would have similar effect as boronization for water removal from the vacuum vessel.

Taylor reacts to Broncos lossPosted by on January 12, 2012 – 11:25 am
Cornerback Ike Taylor didn't address the media following the Steelers 29-23 overtime loss to the Broncos, but spoke for the first time on Wednesday from his home in Orlando, Florida during a regular show he does for TribLive Radio.
"Unfortunately, one of my worst games of the year came at the wrong time," said Taylor. "I reflect back and think of me being highly upset after the game. It was a terrible game for sure. Will it be the last? I don't know. But you have to shake it off."
Taylor said he has watched the play and the pain is still there.
"Just knowing how hard we worked to get to that moment, then everything happened on one play," said Taylor. "It hurt. It still hurts. For me, this is worse than losing the Super Bowl. I take a lot of pride in what I do."
Taylor is already looking ahead to the 2012 season with plans for different results.
"You have to move on," said Taylor. "For me, that's getting back at it."

Yes, Ike, it did come down to one play BUT the fact that it did is the responsibility of the whole team. The Steelers put themselves in that position. A game is made up of the the sum total of the parts. So put your part in that perspective. Good luck in the future. No matter what shakes out, you will always be a part of Steeler nation.

Child molester gets 240 years in prison
HOUSTON CHRONICLE | April 9, 2014 | Updated: April 9, 2014 7:08pm
A child sex offender is scheduled to spend the rest of his life in prison, sent there by a Montgomery County judge.
A jury on Tuesday sentenced Jose Diego Cruz-Escobar on eight counts — four counts each of aggravated sexual assault of a child and four counts of indecency with a child by sexual contact, according to information from the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office.
Cruz-Escobar, 54, was accused of ongoing sexual abuse of the victim, who was 13 at the time. Prosecutors said he also sexually abused another child, who was 10. Cruz-Escobar, of El Salvador, has been arrested on charges of resisting arrest, assault of a police officer and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, officials said.
Judge Lisa Michalk sentenced Cruz-Escobar to a total of 240 years in prison. Michalk ordered that his sentences run consecutively, making his earliest date of parole in approximately 120 years.

Billy Wilder was one of Hollywood's most talented and versatile filmmakers, having produced over 50 films and gaining six Academy Awards to his credit. Well known for his enjoyable comedies and features, he worked with many great stars. The Hong Kong Film Archive's "Restored Treasures" series will showcase three restored Billy Wilder films, with "The Major and the Minor" (1942), "A Foreign Affair" (1948) and "Witness for the Prosecution" (1957) - the latter two starring the German diva Marlene Dietrich - screening at 2pm on January 6, February 3 and March 3 respectively.
Born to a Jewish family in the Austro-Hungarian Empire (in today's Poland), Billy Wilder (1906-2002) started scriptwriting in Berlin. To escape the Nazis, he left for America via France and began a long and fruitful collaboration with screenwriter Charles Brackett in Hollywood. His famous titles include melodramatic works like "Double Indemnity" (1944) and "Sunset Boulevard" (1950) as well as comedies like "The Seven Year Itch" (1955) and "Some Like it Hot" (1959). Throughout his career, he directed many great stars including Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Shirley MacLaine, James Stewart and Jack Lemmon.
"The Major and the Minor" was the first film written and directed by Wilder in the US and featured the musical legend Ginger Rogers. The film tells the story of a young woman leaving New York for her hometown. With no money to buy an adult railway ticket, she disguises herself as a 12-year-old kid, but gives herself away with a half-smoked cigarette. She then takes refuge in the compartment of an army major but it arouses the jealousy of his fiance. Continuing in the vein of the popular romantic comedy genre of the 1930s, the film is full of delightful gags and punchlines, and it continues to provoke laughter today.
After the end of World War II, Wilder returned to the devastated Berlin to make popular political romantic comedies. In "A Foreign Affair", a congresswoman goes to Berlin to investigate the ethics of American soldiers and inadvertently stands in the way of an illicit love affair between a German singer and a soldier. To protect his lover's Nazi connections from surfacing, the soldier pretends to fall in love with the power woman. The three characters each play dual roles in a humorous love triangle. While poking fun at the Americans' moral correctness, the film also shows compassion for the plight of the Germans. Wilder specially cast Marlene Dietrich in the role of the singer with a Nazi background, while Jean Arthur plays the congresswoman who goes from being a prude to a flirt. Seen as disrespectful to the military and citizens in Berlin, the film was banned in Germany.
"Witness for the Prosecution" was adapted from Agatha Christie's detective fiction. A rich woman dies and her beneficiary becomes the prime suspect in her murder. Yet when the suspect's wife testifies, she turns into a witness for the prosecution, accusing her husband of murder. Wilder remained faithful to Christie's narrative twists and preserved the surprise ending, creating a film that surpassed the stage production that Christie had adapted from her original story. Film goddess Dietrich is most eye-catching in the film.
The film prints to be screened were restored and loaned out by the UCLA Film & Television Archive. All are in English and "A Foreign Affair" and "Witness for the Prosecution" have English subtitles.
Film critics Ms Joyce Yang, Mr Thomas Shin and Mr Lam Chiu-wing will share with the audience their views on film appreciation after the screening of "The Major and the Minor", "A Foreign Affair" and "Witness for the Prosecution" respectively.
Tickets for "The Major and the Minor" are now available at URBTIX outlets while tickets for "A Foreign Affair" and "Witness for the Prosecution" will be available one month before the screening dates. Tickets are priced at $50. Half-price concessionary tickets are available for senior citizens aged 60 and above, people with disabilities and their minders, full-time students and Comprehensive Social Security Assistance recipients. Credit card bookings can be made on 2111 5999, or on the Internet at www.urbtix.hk .

UTSA hosts Independence Day Youth Conference for foster youth
Traditionally, "Independence Day" is synonymous with fireworks, family and parties. However, it takes on a completely different meaning when it comes to children in foster care.
The theme "Your Life in 3D: Drive, Determination, Destination!" will focus on children in foster care as they age out of the system and are left to fend for themselves.
The event will help youth realize their potential, regardless of their past, and drive them to a successful future. An estimated 300 are expected to attend the conference to support youth aging out of foster care with their transition into independence and adulthood.
Four themed workshops are scheduled to coincide with life transitions: "A Bridge Not a Wall", "Baggage Fees", "Pass on the Left" and "Tollbooths or Roadblocks."
In addition to music and on-site vendors in Bill Miller Plaza, the conference will feature a panel of former youth who have learned to navigate thru multiple transitions such as aging out of the system, joining the workforce, enrolling in college or vocational careers, and transitioning into new healthy relationships.
Organizers expect the youth to leave encouraged and with practical tools to find hope and redemption in their story as they navigate into independence.
In 2011, CAPRI received a three-year $600,000 HUD grant which was used to create programs to encourage and assist foster youth through the college planning process. The grant also allowed for the creation of the Assistance in College Completion, Employment and Socioeconomic Success (ACCESS) Center and commuter lab. The ACCESS Center, located at the UTSA Downtown Campus, serves as a central hub where youth can get assistance with college readiness, time management and helpful resources for everyday problems.
BCFS Health and Human Services is a global system of health and human service non-profit organizations with locations and programs throughout the United States, Eastern Europe, Latin America, Southeast Asia and Africa. BCFS also provides residential and emergency services, assisted living services, medical services, transitional living services, residential camping and international humanitarian aid throughout the globe.
For more information about the Independence Day Youth Conference, contact Tramelle Jones at (210) 733-7932.

Computer-simulated Thunderstorms with Ice Clouds Reveal Insights for Next-generation Computer ModelsDecember 18th, 2009 in Earth / Earth Sciences
Thunderstorms in the tropics generate widespread cirrus clouds that are important in reflecting and absorbing energy. These mixing ratios for granular snow pellets (also called "soft hail") (shades) and cloud ice (contours) from comparison testing of thunderstorm clouds in the tropics illustrate the wide discrepancy of the ice-phase cloud microphysics in current models. The melting line is marked as a thicker, red line. These types of discrepancies must be resolved for models to more accurately predict cloud influence on climate change.
(PhysOrg.com) -- Computer simulations of thunderstorms using data from a field campaign in Australia confirm that the "ice-phase" cloud processes in climate models contribute most to the wide discrepancy between model results and actual cloud measurements. This was a key finding from PNNL scientist Dr. Yi Wang and his colleagues from a recent study.
The study revealed the most effective tool for detecting when current schemes within climate models do not work well enough: evaluating the simplified representations of these clouds in climate models using actual measurements from field campaigns.
This finding highlights the importance of representing ice clouds properly in models, which is important to the success of the next generation of climate models and their ability to predict future climate. As high performance computing resources and technology advance, the next generation of climate models will run at much finer spatial resolutions (less than 10 km). This finer resolution permits the representation of cloud-sized phenomenon such as thunderstorms. At such high resolutions, the information gained from traditional larger-scale climate model resolutions may be invalid. These next- generation climate models will rely heavily on newer, more sophisticated means of representing clouds.
The tropics are the so called "heat engine" of the atmosphere. The clouds in the tropics have a large impact on climate, global water and energy cycles, and weather patterns by affecting the amount of solar energy that reaches the Earth's surface. A better understanding of tropical clouds and their interactions with the environment will help scientists develop better climate models.
The team used data collected from the 2006 Tropical Warm Pool-International Cloud Experiment (TWP-ICE)—a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program-sponsored field campaign, which took place at the ARM Climate Research Facility site in Darwin, Australia. The team conducted a suite of evaluations for three different ice-cloud-producing schemes in one of the more sophisticated of current models: the Weather Research and Forecasting model. The evaluations consisted of comparing the TWP-ICE data to corresponding model results for each of the three different ways that the model produces ice clouds.
To ensure that only the different ways that ice clouds are represented and interact with other predicted physical quantities in the models, all other possible influences and processes were treated the same during the model runs for this study. The team's evaluations using a simulated thunderstorm especially illustrated the wide discrepancy of the ice-phase-cloud microphysics in tropical clouds.
The team is working to improve the model simulation of high-layer cirrus clouds during the monsoon periods of TWP-ICE when there were clouds but not widespread rainfall. The results will be compared with TWP-ICE and satellite observations from NASA.

Hi. Thanks for your question -- it's a common one.
The ipad only supports photos via USB. to do that, you would get the camera connection kit, and it should allow you to plug in a usb key full of photos, although I haven't tried it.
Goodreader is really my preferred app for doing file transfers.
Also, Evernote is excellent as a go between between computer and ipad. The app store will highlight many other apps that work well together. (Mac or PC can run evernote.)
For more, please post in the apple discussions.

No, because, there's neither USB connection nor adapter on the KB.
NOTE: The KB comes with a battery-charging cable. One end plugs into the mini-USP connector on the KB; the other end connects to a standard USB connector on a computer. As far as I know, this is only for charging the KB battery.

No. It's just a bluetooth keyboard, without any on-board intelligence to "read" a USB drive or any way to transmit the data. The microUSB is used solely for charging.

- 1 onion, diced
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1 can stewed tomatoes (14.5 oz) Is have used Italian Style and Mexican but others should work too.
- 1 can chilli beans in chilli sauce (15.5 oz)
- 1/2 cup enchilada sauce Have used Ortega (bottle) or Target brand (can) with kosher certification
Place ingredients in crockpot and leave on low for about 20 hours (we use this on Shabbos). For weekdays putting it on all day should work too (but the Shabbos version is the best). The result will have a lot of liquid so don't be concerned about burning. No need to add any water.

My Antihero Valentine Blog Hop Sign Up!
Wednesday, January 16, 2013 | Posted by kara-karina@Nocturnal Book Reviews
I've never done anything like this before, so bear with me ladies and gents!
I've looked for blog hops happening around Valentine and frankly I don't fancy any of them.
If any of you feel likewise and crave something a bit darker... I invite you to join me to give my regards to our favorite sexy, lean and mean antiheroes.
I don't want cute or sweet.
I want heartwrenching
gestures of love.
Who is up for paying a tribute to the bad boys?
Giveaway will be for books or ebooks.
If you're thinking of opening your giveaway to international readers, the cheapest way to do that is The Book Depository, Fishpond.com, Smashwords.com and BetterWorldBooks.com.
They offer free postage anywhere in the world.
Giveaway will be open from 12am on the 14th of February (you can post anytime on the 13th if you wish) until 11.59pm of 20th of February.
Thank you very much to anyone who decides to join!
