Cold and Blue
It's cold here. Cold, cold, cold, cold, cold. It's the kind of cold that requires us to keep a constant fire going in our fireplace, or our drafty house will become uncomfortable really quickly and my yoga pants will no longer serve me adequately.
It's the kind of cold that means I'm outside with the axe, breaking through the ice on Puddin's trough so she'll have water to drink. The kind of cold that makes Charlie want to "hold it" for days so he won't ever have to set foot outside.
And let me tell you, that dog can HOLD IT.
At least, I think he can hold it. I HOPE he can hold it. There might be a corner in my house I'm unaware of.
I'll have to check on that.
As for the "Blue" portion of the title of this post: In the last week I've watched the following movies or television shows: "Alpha Dog", "Terms of Endearment", "Sophie's Choice", and four episodes of "Intervention."
Now, "Terms of Endearment" and "Sophie's Choice" are obvious. They've been tear-inducing (sob inducing) mainstays in my list of All-Time Favorite Movies for years, and while the subject matter (cancer and the Holocaust, respectively) of both movies is very, very difficult, I'm comfortable enough with the movies to at least be able to appreciate their contribution to the cinematic world.
"Intervention", the TV series, is a slightly different story. It's a new addiction (strange choice of words, I realize) for me, and is often grueling and painful to watch. But in most cases, each episode ends with a triumph: an addict taking control of his life and successfully making it through rehab and remaining sober after the fact. Human interest victories get me every time.
Now. As for "Alpha Dog?" It was the last straw. It's a compelling movie, yes, one that's difficult for me to stop watching. But after I watch it, I feel:
Chewed up.
Spit out.
Bathed in Blackness.
If you have young sons, if you have young daughters, or if you have any hope in the future of civilized society, let this serve as a warning to you:
Do not watch the movie "Alpha Dog."
Thank you for your time.
And now, if someone could please send me several cases containing DVD's of the following shows, I'd be most appreciative:
The Brady Bunch
Gilligan's Island
Sesame Street
Mr. Rogers
Hee Haw
Dinah Shore
Dinah Shore is the key here. It may be only thing that pulls me out of this slump.
Peace, Love, and Hormones,
Pioneer Woman

Brady Bunch after all that depression would make me suicidal. Psychological torture to have such drastic mood swings!
Marcia On Friday, January 16 at 3:43 pm
This morning when I drove to work it was 14 degrees and I live in the South! Beautiful pictures.
SPARKALINA On Friday, January 16 at 3:43 pm
Oh! So glad someone else has an un-natural addiction to INTERVENTION also! I thought I was the only one. I cry everytime, too don't tell anybody.
Lydia On Friday, January 16 at 3:43 pm
Being in Alabama means I never have to deal with your kind of cold, but it's been cold for the south. It didn't get out of the 30's today. Woo!
I agree with you about Alpha Dog. I watched it once and couldn't get it out of my head for days. I won't watch it again. I pray your readers listen to your advice NOT to watch.
Debby On Friday, January 16 at 3:44 pm
Hey Ree,
Check out Dexter – it's not depressing at all. Well, unless you worry about serial killers working for the cops to cover their tracks! Cheers!
p.j. On Friday, January 16 at 3:44 pm
Beautiful pictures, Ree. L'heure blue.
We have video tapes for our VCR of Mr. Rogers' wonderful "operas."
Also tapes of numerous "Magic School Bus" episodes.
I would be honored to send them to you. I'll even dust them off before I box them up! My kids are now 16 and 19 and haven't shown interest in many years. Although they love to watch Disney movies. Anyway, just let me know.
And my husband got them addicted over New Year's weekend to "The Prisoner". (Odd timing, eh?)
Our library is now our go-to source for free movies.
Stay warm, p.j.
Janet On Friday, January 16 at 3:44 pm
I love the pics… but sorry you're feeling so down after seeing all that! Ummmm, it's 78 here today. The only reason I hate it is because that means 115 is not that far away. I need some cold!!
Deb T. On Friday, January 16 at 3:45 pm
Watch Jon & Kate plus 8 (Monday nights)… that'll pull you right out of your slump. (I'm terribly addicted to that show– talk about hormones– everytime I see that show I want to have 10 more babies!). : )

Lorrie On Friday, January 16 at 3:45 pm
the pictures are absolutely breath taking…I am sorry your blue… I would advise you stop watching those movies curl up with charlie and take a nap.. Naps are cures for almost all things..hope your smiling soon
Christy On Friday, January 16 at 3:45 pm
I have really sworn off depressing shows that show the ugly side of life – including several tv shows that I used to watch…I guess I'm getting sensitive in my old age – I can say that since I turned 41 on Wednesday!! As far as cold, I guess I will quit complaining about it being clear and 49 here in south central Texas although we could really use some rain deperately!
Wendy2 in WA On Friday, January 16 at 3:45 pm
You need to add Andy Griffith to that list
Jess On Friday, January 16 at 3:46 pm
This will make you feel better – did you see that Toni Collette has a new show of her own starting this weekend?! It's on Showtime or HBO, I forget which. I don't have either of those channels, so I won't be watching, but I thought of you as soon as I saw the previews!
Suzanne On Friday, January 16 at 3:47 pm
I love some of those old shows too. How about Mr. Ed? I've met a better talking horse…..
LiteraryOne On Friday, January 16 at 3:47 pm
Sounds like you need to watch my newest fav movie!! It's called "Mrs Palfrey at the Clairmont" with Joan Plowright!!
It will make you cry because of the sweetness of the movie and it will redeem your views on the youth of the world…who by the way will be taking care of us aging baby boomers!! Who knew that we would create a whole industry!
Heidi On Friday, January 16 at 3:48 pm
Are you pregnant?
chris On Friday, January 16 at 3:48 pm
I bet you it's colder here! High today was 5°F with a wind chill of -15°F – that's cold.But I can help.
Not only do I have wine and baily's I have all 7 seasons of Gilmore Girls, that's sure to fix ya up!
Nana J On Friday, January 16 at 3:48 pm
Instead of watching something to contribute to your blues, try listening to old programs of "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" on NPR. They are free (although they would appreciate a small donation from time to time) and hilarious. Here is a link to the program: http://www.npr.org/programs/waitwait/
Also, try "This American Life" at http://www.thislife.org/?gclid=CI-9g52lu5ICFQIWiQodxEfMtg. Go to "on the radio" to listen to the archives. I am addicted to these programs and need my weekly fix. Enjoy!
Brenda On Friday, January 16 at 3:48 pm
Please – oh please – don't forget about The Andy Griffith Show.
Carrie On Friday, January 16 at 3:49 pm
It's been bitterly cold here too and the entire series dvd of the Dick Van Dyke show is one of the few bright spots in my day. We watch a few almost every night and giggle. I love my DVD dvds.
Winker On Friday, January 16 at 3:49 pm
17 below here in Chicago!
Did you see your favorite actress (Toni Collette) is staring in a new TV show on Showtime!? I think it's called United States of Tara
Suburban Lush On Friday, January 16 at 3:49 pm
The one movie that can't help but perk up my mood has to be The Princess Bride. I mean really, you can't get any better than that.
Jamie On Friday, January 16 at 3:49 pm
I saw Alpha Dog and it sucked. It took place a few miles from where I live and I know people who went to school with those guys. It was big news here at the time. The story still baffles me but then I go back and watch American History X that was based on a true story also and took place when I was in highschool at my schools cross town rival. I know of at least two people that could have hung in that group.
Chronicles of a Country Ggirl On Friday, January 16 at 3:50 pm
I don't like movies that suck the happy right out of me. If I had any of the titles you're requesting, I'd send them.
It reminds me of how I am. If I watch something scary before going to bed, I always need to watch something like a Doris Day movie real quick to counteract it. It works well.
Your photos are incredible. Thanks for sharing them.
Winker On Friday, January 16 at 3:50 pm
So I see your other peeps already had you covered on the Toni Collette bit – I hope you have Showtime!

Puna On Friday, January 16 at 3:52 pm
Pictures are beautiful! It's been cold here too…(Maryland). Let's see, I like Ground Hog Day. It's one of my very most all time favorites. But it's set in the winter time…maybe Blue Lagoon? Wait, it has the word "blue" in it. OK, I know, any James Bond movie. I love James Bond.
Greeneyes Martha On Friday, January 16 at 3:52 pm
Me thinks…you need a bit of one on one time with MM.
He'll warm you up. And he'll get your mind off of those darn movies!!
That's what good husbands are for!!
Cal Gal On Friday, January 16 at 3:52 pm
It's warm and sunny with blue skies here in San Diego. We're headed to the beach after school. Just so you know.
Get Smart, DVD box set. Guaranteed smiles.
Pearle On Friday, January 16 at 3:53 pm
I agree. Alpha Dog was just depression. It made my heart feel sick.
cindydianne On Friday, January 16 at 3:54 pm
Note to self: Self, do not watch Alpha Dog. Ever.
shelly On Friday, January 16 at 3:54 pm
i hope you read this but do not watch black snake moan same omg feeling. but the new tyler perry movie "the family that preys" is awesome. kathy bates did so good in this movie. stay warm it is cold in tn also.
maryjack On Friday, January 16 at 3:55 pm
I, too, am addicted to Intervention. I need an Intervention intervention. Ha! But really, it's so hard to pull yourself away from those things…especially when it's flippin' freezin' outside! We woke up to 15 degrees today, and while I know that's much warmer than some places, this is the SC coast, baby, and it hasn't been that cold here since 1989. Whoo! Can't wait til this passes.
Bobbie in Alaska! On Friday, January 16 at 3:55 pm
I watched Alpha Dog with my teen son (18, actually). I found the movie engrossing. We both couIdn't take our eyes away from the screen. I knew the outcome of the movie, but it still broke my heart knowing the choices that were made. I felt awful for all of them.
I have never seen Sophies Choice, which is surprising since I love Meryl Streep.
Don't kill me, but I can't stand Jack Nicholson so I didn't care for Terms of Endearment. Sorry. I need to be more open minded, but when there is an actor that gets under my skin I am pretty much turned off by everything they do.
Alison On Friday, January 16 at 3:55 pm
I love your cold and blue photos — just gorgeous! I can't say I've seen Alpha Dog, but thanks for the heads up. I've been studying your helpful tips on aperture, shutter speeds and exposure for days. I get it and I even wrote it down to commit it to memory. Actually trying to get these settings down is another story. I don't know if it's my lens or just me — maybe I'm just too thick headed. What is the best lens to use? I have the 18mm – 135mm 1:3.5-5.6G (came w/my D80)
brigid of Calif On Friday, January 16 at 3:56 pm
Beautiful photos. Please stop watching those dreary movies, you need something to make you laugh, or at least smile. "Mall Cop" scenes have been showing on tv, bet the kids would love it.
Martha Sue On Friday, January 16 at 3:56 pm
Pretty picture PW….
I have never seen Alpha Dog but I like to watch The First 48…. My favorites are Memphis, Dallas and Miami…..There are some mean people in this world….
Suzanne On Friday, January 16 at 3:56 pm
I feel your coldness! It was -4 this morning and we've reach a high of 4 today! Nolli dog went out with Hubs this morning and really hasn't moved from his bed all day… hmmm… I hope he isn't frozen. J/K… his bed is right next to the foot of our bed! We always turn to Mayberry and Andy Griffith when we need something good to watch!

Does Hulu have any of the shows you're looking for?
I'm a Hope Floats girl – best movie ever!
Teresa On Friday, January 16 at 3:58 pm
You forgot "The Carol Burnett Show". If ever you need a laugh or to feel good about being silly, that's the place to go.
Pony Girl On Friday, January 16 at 3:59 pm
I have never watched Intervention, I only have basic cable. Sounds intense, though!
I think the winter is an easy time to get in that blue slump. I feel it mostly because of the lack of daylight and gloomy weather. It makes you want to snuggle down and hibernate, become a hermit, whatever. I think your list of movies and shows is a good one! I know when I was sick a few weeks ago I watched comedies that I knew would make me laugh out loud. It's the best therapy!
Katrina On Friday, January 16 at 3:59 pm
oh I watched Terms of Endearment today and bawled like a big ole baby. Did you happen to catch Grease on tv the other night! ahhhhhhhhhh the memories!
Gorgeous pictures Ree… I sure wish I had your talent *sigh*
Cristina On Friday, January 16 at 3:59 pm
I liked Alpha Dog, but it made me feel the same way as you. Sad, depressed, scared. Crazy because it is a true story that was lived in my neck of the woods (yeah, I know that there are no woods in So.CA, but you know what I mean.)
Plus it had Justin Timberlake & just because I am almost 40 doesn't mean, I do not like me some JT, lurve JT!
Bebe On Friday, January 16 at 4:00 pm
Ree–you can watch many of those shows on demand! I just initiated my kids into the silly world of Gilligan's Island earlier this week. I found episodes at comcast.com. Click TV or Movies and watch for free!
Bren On Friday, January 16 at 4:00 pm
Wow! Cold? Ice? It is 75 over hear in California and my Mom said she was cold. Love your site!
MariaT On Friday, January 16 at 4:00 pm
I have never heard of Dina Shore.
Gail On Friday, January 16 at 4:01 pm
Hmm, don't have any Dinah to send you at the moment…BUT I will send you my almost 7 year old punkette. I found her sitting on the floor surrounded by blankets, watching tv and picking her toes. First thing that popped into my head was "This has got to be one of PW punks!" So I will be sending her back.
Oh, and her birthday is Feb 2, Groundhog's Day. So stick her little hiney outside and pray she doesn't see her shadow! That's what we do with her – we don't wait for the furry rodent in Pennsylvania to give us our weather report.
Northfordy Sue On Friday, January 16 at 4:01 pm
You have confessed you love of Toni Collette, you must be excited that she stars in a new TV series on Showtime called the "United States of Tara" where she plays a woman with miltiple personalities.
Rachel On Friday, January 16 at 4:01 pm
How about Bewitched?
7aki Fadi On Friday, January 16 at 4:02 pm
You know what lifts my mood everyday?
Reading your blog.
I love your blog(s) Ree.
Oh oh I made that chicken spaghetti casserole and OMG it was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yummy! My daughter even ate the green peppers which she hates and she was like yummy mommy, my husband loved it too.
K On Friday, January 16 at 4:02 pm
You need to watch more lighthearted fare like Sneakers or One Crazy Summer. Or the beaty pageant scene in Little Miss Sunshine. They make me laugh out loud.
Bridge On Friday, January 16 at 4:03 pm
My reaction to movies like that is to sit down with old Disney classics that only I seem to love. Summer Magic and the Happiest Millionaire are favorites. If you haven't seen them (or haven't seen them lately), then order them from ebay or Amazon. They're just so very happy!
connie On Friday, January 16 at 4:03 pm
Music always picks me up when I have the winter blues. Songs like Zac Brown Band's Chicken Fried and of course anything by Toby Keith or Jimmy Buffet.
Georgette Bradley On Friday, January 16 at 4:03 pm
How about M.A.S.H.? I have the complete set and often watch an episode before I go to bed. Its an obsession I share w/ my eight year old. We've been doing this since she was four. She has a crush on Hawkeye.
Michelle On Friday, January 16 at 4:04 pm
OMG, I watched Alapha Dog about a year ago……..It ruined my whole weekend. Made me sick. I couldn't stop thinking about it, it's haunting.
Love the photos!
Theresa in Bexhill On Friday, January 16 at 4:04 pm
To lift your mood, I can highly recommend "Love Actually."
Also, my daughter I stay connected through "Terms of Endearment" while I live overseas and she's expecting her first child in a little over three weeks. We've watched it so much that we now focus on the funny stuff and how close the mother and daughter are, even through their fighting.
Kristy On Friday, January 16 at 4:04 pm
Want to be more depressed? Realize that "Alpha Dog" is based on a true story.
I only watch romantic comedies and pixar movies. I can imagine enough bad stuff on my own, I don't need my entertainment to bring it right to my living room.
ndakotamommy On Friday, January 16 at 4:05 pm
I agree with you!! First, I LOVE Intervention. It's a must see! Second, this weather and the slump thing. In North Dakota we just came out of several snow storms and fridged temps. So much snow that not only school has been closed, but WAL MART has been closed for a week to remove snow from the roof. It is ready to cave in!!!! Along with a small mall and a school! The temps were -40 reg. temp. Today is the first nice day and the temp increased by 70-80 degrees!!
Moosefish On Friday, January 16 at 4:06 pm
CHOCOLATE WOMAN!!!! Mainline it…NOW!!!
I think that is the only think that is keeping me with it right now. And for some reason I am currently fixated on Yo-Yo Ma's Bach recordings (specifically from the Cello Suites in G Major). It is so earthy and soul satisfying I can't tell if it is darkening me up or stirring something deep…I'll keep you informed.
Other than that Chocolate and Office Space….now where is my red stapler?
Moosefish On Friday, January 16 at 4:07 pm
Scratch that….we may see you on Intervention if you start main-lining chocolate….
Susan On Friday, January 16 at 4:07 pm
What's for dinner, Grandpaw? Those old Hee Haw episodes are the absolute best! Saaaal-ooot!

Barb 1230 On Friday, January 16 at 4:10 pm
It is bitterly cold here, about 5º, and my son caught our very short haired beagle mix actually peeing up against a wall in the house yesterday!!!! I think he wanted to avoid going outside. So yes, Ree, check around your house! My newest t.v. addicition? "Snapped." Women killing their husbands/boyfriends. My daughter is convinced I'm plotting something!
Terri On Friday, January 16 at 4:12 pm
I read the backstory on Alpha Dog and can't bring myself to watch it. In fact, even thinking about it makes me depressed, so I have to find a distraction. I'm off to find Little House on the Prairie reruns! Oh, and it's cold here, too – we're freeazing our buns off! Well, we wish the buns were coming off, but still – it's freezing!
Joanne On Friday, January 16 at 4:13 pm
I live in Wisconsin and this morning when I left for work it was -22 degrees outside. Now thats cold. I had a hard time feeling sorry for my sis that lives in southern Illinois, this morning when she was telling me it was 6 degrees at their place.
Grateful for Grace On Friday, January 16 at 4:13 pm
I think you also need some Sanda Dee movies. "Tammy and the Doctor" sounds just about right.

It is cold, cold, cold here too.
I haven't left the house in days.
It was -11º and now it is a whopping 6º at 5:14pm.
hennifer On Friday, January 16 at 4:15 pm
I'd seen the true story behind Alpha Dog on 20/20 or some such show years ago when suspect was still on the run. I thought the movie was horribly depressing because it really drove home how under different circumstances the story could have been different. I'm not sure if it make me a cynic (sp??) or in denial of how sad the story is but I'm not sure it is so simple.
In any event… I like a familiar sad movie to fill a mood need. And I found the movie Sophie's Choice was a little disappointing after reading the book. It is a good choice for one's favorite book

Beautiful pictures! And you need to watch slapstick comedies too! Something that when you watch it, you can't help but laugh.
Oh and it is going to be 65 here in Denver tomorrow. hehehe
Lynda the Guppy On Friday, January 16 at 4:17 pm
For me it's the Muppets. Because, really, is it at ALL possible to stay sad/angry/depressed, etc. while watching Pigs In Space or the ever-hopeful Miss Piggy chasing her beloved Kermie?
patty On Friday, January 16 at 4:18 pm
you should check out joost.com. they have old tv shows you can watch on the computer, i.e. Gilligan's Island, The Lucy Show and Dick Van Dyke. No Brady Bunch, but they do have Partridge Family!
c-lyn On Friday, January 16 at 4:19 pm
It's 77 here in Arizona!!! Have you seen P.S. I love you It's a GREAT movie!!!!
Denise Claire On Friday, January 16 at 4:20 pm
I only watch funny or uplifting movies.
It's over 60 degrees F in the Denver area today and we've hardly had any snow this winter. The mountains have been getting LOADS of snow, but not the Front Range plains. I'm afraid we're gonna get dumped on in March right when I'm ready to plant my early Spring veggie crops in the garden.
January is my favorite month of the year though. Why? No yard work. It's a slow time of year when I can "relax", "relax" being a relative term to the rest of the year. And the year is young and still full of hope for things to accomplish in the year ahead. And it's by birthday month.
Molly K in TN On Friday, January 16 at 4:20 pm
It's cold here in middle TN too; about 6 degrees when I headed out the door this am. They actually closed the schools because of it! Wimps! hehe. So may I suggest some stupid humor movies by the likes of Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn? That might get you out of your slump!
Rachel On Friday, January 16 at 4:20 pm
Roman Holiday and Return to Me do it for me. I still cry — and then tell my family to stop watching me to see if I'm crying…they should know by now…
Beautiful pictures–and as always, thanks for sharing!

Beautiful pictures! We too are really cold here…(Maine) It was -17 this morning. My dog won't go out at all. She hasn't been out since 8:30 this morning!
I had to laugh at the Gilligan's Island. My kids got the Season 2 discs for Christmas. I am now singing the theme song in my sleep. I still don't get how they ended up with all that stuff for a three hour tour….they pack like my daughter!
Stay warm.
melissa valentine On Friday, January 16 at 4:22 pm
1. you must come back to cali for the weekend. we're headed to disneyland tomorrow where it should be a beautiful 80 degrees (that's above zero too!)
2. i adore those photos as cold as you must have been to take them.
3. girl pop in a few episodes of friends and that'll lift your spirits. i can no longer watch horrid movies like that. my girl, sophies choice, steel magnolias, beaches, armagedon, hope floats (i was asked to leave the theater the first time i saw it because i was crying so loud. horrible), oh and i recently watched family stone to catch a good "comedy" and i bawled my eyes out. don't do it.
ok, maybe i'm a bit emotional and i cry and most commercials around the holidays… but still stick with a good solid "friends" episode should cheer you up. i own all 10 seasons and would gladly share.

Mary Lou On Friday, January 16 at 4:25 pm
You need to get Netflix. They even make a box that you put on your TV that you can watch shows for the same cheap rate and still get the DVDs sent to you! Try watching Premonition…that one is really intriguing.
Kathy On Friday, January 16 at 4:25 pm
I cannot believe you were watching Ice Castles 20 hours ago. That is one of my favorite movies. I have been looking for it to watch with my daughter and haven't been able to locate it. Where on earth did you get it?? I am so jealous. Robby Benson made me schmoopy as a teen. Stay warm!
austin goddess On Friday, January 16 at 4:26 pm
I have the complete set of The Muppet Show on DVD…wanna borrow em? There's nothing better than John Denver singing Grandma's Feather Bed…wait, maybe Carol Burnet dressed like a piece of asparagus!
tkleigh On Friday, January 16 at 4:26 pm
My favorite movies on a day that is to cold to go out are the following: With Six You Get Eggroll, Yours Mine and Ours (The Henry Fonda & Lucille Ball one), The Parent Trap with Haley Mills, The Long Long Trailer, Move Over Darling (with Yummy James Garner and Doris Day). These movies are wonderful for a stay in day at home with a warm cup of Chi Tea.
slammie On Friday, January 16 at 4:27 pm
beautiful pictures!
WHAT??? No Carol Burnett?!?!? Some of those episodes make me laugh so hard I feel like I'm going to PIMP!
Mandy in Chicago On Friday, January 16 at 4:28 pm
Here in the Tundra it was MINUS 15 this morning!! This is the coldest I've ever seen Chicago and I've lived here for 10 years!! When I got up this morning to go to the gym at 5:45 (yes, I'm still on a New Year's resolution bender), the INSIDE of my windshield was frosted over. The INSIDE!! Now that's cold when the inside of your car freezes. It took me awhile to figure it out (I'm a little slow at 5:45 am)…I was outside scraping and scraping and nothing was coming off…but I could still see it…then it dawned on me: inside, fool. Sigh.
When I need to immerse myself in a pick me up I watch old tv: Andy Griffith, I Love Lucy, Cosby Show (ok, not so old, but still good), etc.
Ok, we're off for a weekend of ice fishing in Wisconsin at hubby's cabin!
Feel better and stay warm!
Jennie On Friday, January 16 at 4:28 pm
Cool pictures. I am addicted to intervention too. Unfortunately I'm living an episode right now in real life. Sorry to be more dark, forlorn and bathed in blackness but … not everyone's life is as simple as "OH my NOSE!" or "Mom always said, don't play ball in the house" or "The guys made other plans, Dad." ~sigh~ Could really use some of Alice's porkchops and applesauce….
Shanna On Friday, January 16 at 4:28 pm

Did you know it's Ethel Merman's birthday today? She'd be 101!!
And it's cold up here in Canada too! It feels colder too because we use Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. So it's -29.9 C according to my thermometer but that's really only -21.8 F!!

You need a copy of "Uncle Buck" John Candy at his best. The bonus is getting to see Lori Metcalf as the looney neighbor. There is no way I could watch Terms of Endearment" and "Sophie's Choice" in one week. Heck , they should sell Prozac at the concession stands of theatres showing those movies.

Make sure your usb drive is plugged in and turned on when trying to run USB Loader GX
Anything I can do with my black screen when loading usbloader... Followed it carefully and don't understand why its not working... Does Neo play games from USB as well? Looks like it had the option but it doesnt work either. At least that program actually runs though. I'm gonna get another game, maybe that's the problem??? I've already tried to different usb devices, one micro cruzer thumb drive and a 120GB WD Passport

Made this without the ham and simply doubled the amount of shrimp. Reduced the amount of soy sauce by half and used 2 eggs instead of 1. I also added some shredded carrots I had left over from another recipe and it turned out very nicely. Very easy and will definitely make again!

Economic woes are creating an angry, sexless America
Angry birds are officially taking over. An unsettled economy, rising gas prices, and natural disasters are freaking Americans out. A recent Newsweek/Daily Beast poll found rising anger levels among Americans are affecting everything from sex drive to sleep.
The nationwide unemployment rate hit 9.1 percent in May. An increase from 9 percent in April, attributed, in part, to May's severe weather, high gas prices, and the domino effect of Japan's earthquake, according to the Labor Department.
The survey of 600 American adults across the country assessed sentiments and attitudes of Americans finding:
"Americans are angry and nervous about the economic and fiscal issues facing the country."
Two-thirds of the respondents were angry with God.
Three-quarters thought the country was going the wrong way.
70 percent thought the Federal Government was messing up in regard to economic issues.
65 percent are angry at big corporations making record profits.
89 percent are angry at rising gas prices.
God's not the only one American's are angry at. Respondents felt neither President Obama nor the Republican Party had a plan to aid economic woes. Overall people felt their personal economic situations made them anxious, upset, and angry. Of the angry: 56 percent have trouble sleeping and 63 percent have a lower sex drive.
No wonder we didn't make the happiest nations list.
(via the Daily Beast)
Short of moving to Canada, perhaps migrating to 'happier' spots in America to save your sleepless, sexless soul.

For those individuals looking for a comprehensive antioxidant product to supplement with' Kirkman[s Antioxidant/Cell Protect is a comprehensive blend of powerful antioxidant nutrients including vitamin A from mixed carotenoids' vitamin C' vitamin E' and selenium' in a matrix of four of the strongest antioxidant compounds available including coenzyme Q-10' lycopene' pycnogenol' and resveratrol. Supplementing this product along with your normal supplement regimen will provide excellent antioxidant activity and cell protection from free radicals.
Our bodies constantly react with oxygen as we breathe and as our cells produce energy. This oxygen activity has its consequences because during this process' highly reactive molecules are produced known as free radicals. These free radicals then interact with other molecules within our cells causing oxidative damage to proteins' membranes' genetic material and other cell components. External factors such as pollution' sunlight' chemicals' heavy metals and other impurities we encounter or ingest also trigger the production of free radicals. This whole process of oxidation and free radical production is known as oxidative stress. Evidence is convincing that oxidative stress is implicated in many diseases including cancer' Alzheimer's disease and heart disease and also has an impact on the body's aging process.
It is important to minimize oxidative stress damage by consuming antioxidants which retard the process. Antioxidants are substances that may protect your cells against the effects of free radicals. The body produces an array of antioxidants to defend itself against these free radicals. Selective foods we eat also contain a variety of antioxidants including vitamins' minerals and enzymes which also aid in quenching and destroying the free radicals. Certain fruits and vegetables also contain certain nutrients which are powerful antioxidants.
Many of the vitamins and minerals we consume from food or nutritional supplements have antioxidant properties. These include:
• Vitamin A
• Vitamin C
• Vitamin D
• Vitamin E
• Selenium
• Zinc
Specialty dietary supplements that target antioxidant activity are also available and include:
• Beta carotene and mixed carotenoids
• Melatonin
• Coenzyme Q10
• Pycnogenol
• Grapeseed Extract or Grape Extract
• L-carnosine
• L-carnitine
• Resveratrol
• Green Tea Extract (and other select teas)
• L-glutathione
• Super oxide dismutase
Tomatoes contain a pigment called lycopene which gives the plant its red color. Lycopene is a very powerful antioxidant' so consuming tomato based products such as canned tomatoes' tomato sauces' tomato soup or juice and even ketchup will supply your body with antioxidant activity. Lycopene is also present in watermelon in highly concentrated quantities. Lycopene is also available as a dietary supplement.
Lutein is a carotenoid type antioxidant found in green leafy vegetables which has been recently implicated in preventing or lessening the severity of macular eye degeneration. It too is available as a supplement.
Citrus fruits such as oranges' grapefruit' lemons and limes are extremely high in antioxidant activity because they contain natural substances such as carotenoids' flavonoids' terpenes and coumarins' all of which offer good free radical protection.
Certain members of the berry family contain powerful antioxidants as well including cranberries' blueberries' elderberries' acai' black currants and grapes' all of which contain high concentrations of anthocyanins which possess high antioxidant activity. Grapes also contain another powerful antioxidant called resveratrol which is getting a lot of interest as of late. Resveratrol is the component of red wine which is thought to be the healthy component of red wine which along with the abundant flavonoid polyphenols also present in the red wine helps contribute to the fact that the French suffer a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease despite having a diet rich in saturated fats. More research is necessary to prove this correlation.
When it comes to antioxidant activity' the described compounds work more powerfully as a group rather than separately. Combining the vitamins' minerals' specialty supplements and foods provide a far greater benefit as a result of the antioxidants working synergistically together. It is not necessary to take all of the aforementioned products to get this beneficial effect. You can pick and choose those that fit into your dietary habits and supplement regimen.
It is impossible for us to avoid all damage by free radicals because they arise both inside and outside of our bodies. By utilizing the protective effect of antioxidants' however' one can feel comfortable with the fact that research shows that people who eat a diet rich in antioxidants' fruits and vegetables are less likely to get certain diseases.

Two things, while I think it's a good thing more women are getting involved in grappling and MMA, DHS is not the place for an open mat invite. Threads about seminars are fine. Ones concerning open mats, not so much, simply because if allowed, the forum would quickly be overrun with similar threads.
Second, this thread would probably get more exposure where it belongs, the Throwdown forum. Hopefully this translates into more women showing up.
Good Luck.

Can someone help me with this?
2 Attachment(s)
I'm new to this forum and relatively new to mac. I bought a macbook pro last year and have been living happily ever after until about a week ago. Don't really know how to describe the problem, so I'll post attach a few snapshots.
This is happening all out of the blue. I have a suspect it may have a connection to google chome. When I ex. scroll down a website it might happen. And it affects everything. I'm not able to close any window or programs, and the "pixels or whatever I can call them" moves around when I move the cursor. But I'm not positive it's caused by chrome.. last time it happened when I used the "F3" key.
It's a huuuge problem right now, since I'm having my pathology exam in a few days and are totally dependent on looking up weird diseases.
Please please help me! Does anyone know anything about this? I've tried googling, but I don't know which terms to search for.
Appreciate all help I can get. :)
Running snow leopard it that may help figuring out what's wrong. :)
And I'm sorry if I posted this tread in the wrong place.
Hi and welcome to the forum..
Try following both these instructions
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
And report back to us
Thank you! I've followed both, and will wait and see if the problem reoccurs today or tomorrow. It usually happens a few times during the day, so I'll know for sure tomorrow.
Yep, I'll report back!
Again, thank you! :)
Haven't had any more problems! Seems like it worked out! ;D
Thank you soooo much!! :)
I was thinking there was some kind of graphic-related hardware problem. Looks like I was wrong thankfully.

Product description
This seminal work on modern terrorism assesses the changes and continuities in Osama bin Laden's thinking since 2002. In order to win the war against terrorism, argues Michael Scheuer, former head of the CIA's bin Laden Unit, we must first stop dismissing militant Muslims as "extremists" or "religious fanatics." Formulating a successful military strategy requires that we see the enemy as they perceive themselves - highly trained and motivated soldiers who believe their cause is righteous. Scheuer shows that the war has accelerated the transformation of bin Laden and al Qaeda from man and organization to, respectively, a symbol of leadership and heroism and a worldwide movement.

Author information
Bestselling author Michael Scheuer is the former head of the CIA's Bin Laden Unit and has two decades of experience in national security issues related to Afghanistan and South Asia. After resigning from the agency in November 2004, he revealed his authorship of Imperial Hubris and Through Our Enemies' Eyes (Brassey's, Inc., 2002; Potomac Books, Inc., 2005), both originally published under the byline "Anonymous." Scheuer has been featured extensively on television, including 60 Minutes, and has been the focus of print media worldwide. He lives in the Washington, D.C., area.
Review quote
"[Scheuer]'s examination of al Qaeda is a bracing corrective to much that has passed as analysis about the group." - CNN terrorism analyst Peter Bergen in the Washington Post "A masterful job at... interpreting what bin Laden is trying to tell America but that has fallen on deaf ears." - Studies in Conflict and Terrorism "Among the 'war on terrorism cognoscenti' in and around Washington, D.C., mere word-of-mouth established [Through Our Enemies Eyes] as required reading for anyone seeking to understand bin Laden, the movement that he cofounded and led, and the profound threat that it posed (and continues to pose) to the United States and to international peace. Accordingly, the book's reputation spread as a thoroughly reliable, trenchant, and commendably clear exegesis of al Qaeda's ideology, goals, and alarming ambitions.... The key to success in warfare, the Chinese strategist Sun Tzu wrote, is to 'know your enemy and you will know yourself.' In Through Our Enemies Eyes, Scheuer answers the first part of that irrefutable formulation." - From the foreword by Bruce Hoffman, senior fellow, Combating Terrorism Center, U.S. Military Academy, and author of Inside Terrorism "[Scheuer's] examination of al Qaeda is a bracing corrective to much that has passed as analysis about the group." - CNN terrorism analyst Peter Bergen in the Washington Post "A highly informative analysis." - The Washington Times "A masterful job at... interpreting what bin Laden is trying to tell America but that has fallen on deaf ears." - Studies in Conflict and Terrorism "A sobering portrait of Osama bin Laden." - The Christian Science Monitor "This is a book that all professional soldiers should read since it represents, in significant detail, the views and motivation of one of our primary adversaries, while clearly defining the severity of the ongoing threat." - Armor"

Lenten Devotions: Go, Tell, and See
This Lenten season, Bread Blog will be running a series of devotions written by Pastor Ron Glusenkamp, senior pastor at Bethany Lutheran Church in Cherry Hills Village, Colo. The reflections are based, in part, on the music of Peter Mayer, accomplished vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter. The theme for this year's series is "Mighty This Love," named for one of Mayer's compositions.
This post is reprinted, with permission, from Glusenkamp's site, h20 devos. Audio podcast versions of the daily devotionals are also available.
"After the sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.
And suddenly there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.
His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
For fear of him the guards shook and became like dead men.
But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid; I know that you are looking for Jesus who was crucified.
He is not here; for he has been raised, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.
Then go quickly and tell his disciples, 'He has been raised from the dead, and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.' This is my message for you."
So they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
Suddenly Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" And they came to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.
Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me" (Matthew 28).

The Hobbit Begins Filming 2010Tuesday, May 27th, 2008
The Hobbit begins filming in 2010. The two films are being made back to back.
The live chat "An Unexpected Party" was held today at Weta's website between fans and Guillermo del Toro, director of The Hobbit and its untitled sequel, and executive producer Peter Jackson. Del Toro and Jackson fielded fans' inquiries about the two projects, revealing a good deal about their plans for them.
"At this point in time the plan is to write [the screenplays] for the rest of this year and start early conceptual designs. 2009 will be dedicated to pre-production on both movies and 2010 will be the year we shoot both films back to back," Jackson told fans. "Post production follows one film at a time with The Hobbit being released December 2011, and (Film Two) release Dec 2012. That is the schedule in about as much detail as we have ourselves at the moment." Del Toro said the ratings for the two Hobbit movies would be the same as the Lord of the Rings trilogy, "an intense PG-13."
Casting buzz claims that LOTR veterans Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn), and Andy Serkis (Gollum) have all been approached to reprise their respective roles for the films. Del Toro clarified the matter by saying, "No casting has started yet … but some people have thrown their helmet into the ring."

Volcanic lightning is a phenomenon that happens within a volcano. There are three different types of lightning discharge in a volcano; dirty lightning, small sparks, and vent lightning. Dirty lightning resembles normal lightning and can be seen from far away. Small sparks can only be seen close up. The third kind is vent lightning; this discharge comes directly from the volcano mouth and is approximately two miles long.
According to Bradley Muller, a professor of Applied Meteorology in the Department of Applied Aviation Sciences at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical , volcanic lightning is believed to be caused by a separation of charges. When one particle with negative charge is separated from the positive charged particle, lightning could develop between those two particles. This is the effect that causes lightning to form within a volcano. These charges develop when different materials rub or collide together; the friction between materials causes the charge itself. The moisture within the volcano can be a factor into whether the volcano gives off lightning. Moisture can affect the electrical resistance in the air and therefore affecting the amount of lightning present in the eruption. The intensity of the eruption also plays a part in the creation of volcanic lightning.
Volcanic lightning is similar to lightning in a thunderstorm but there are also many defining characteristics that are unique to a volcano, such as the types of electric discharge.

Grant was born and raised in the Buckeye state, and from a young age was surrounded by numerous legions of the Ohio State faithful whose fervor he witnessed on a regular basis. Despite having no real ties to the University except for being an Ohioan, Grant continually rooted for the Scarlet & Gray as much as a nine-year-old boy could. It was ultimately a combination of NCAA Football 2003 and the miracle that was the 2002 season that finally turned his passive passion into a vigorous one. Since then the Bucks have been central to his existence; he even roamed the same high school halls as Mike Nugent, AJ Hawk and Kirk Herbstreit. His love for all things Buckeye culminated in his decision to attend Ohio State where he is currently a sophomore majoring in journalism. He is entirely too invested in Celtic Football Club, and he can typically be found either at Cane's or watching reruns of "Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide".

I can't find this year's tiebreaking procedure, but according to last year's it would go to the head-to-head record of the two teams. In that case, OSU would be the 1 seed. Nebraska is also actually in the race for the conference title: if Ohio State and Indiana split and Nebraska wins their final two games, there will be a three-way tie for first. Luckily, the Buckeyes went 2-1 agaisnt the Cornhuskers this year, meaning they'd get the one seed. But, Minnesota can actually also get a share of the title if they win both games and Ohio State wins only one. Then the Gophers would be the 1 seed since they beat the Buckeyes twice.
I'm glad you mentioned those "bUCkeye State" shirts. There were quite a few UC fans at my suburban Dayton high school, and I saw way too many of those slogans. Just the memory of the shirt made our Sweet 16 win last year that much sweeter for me personally.
I didn't know Craft was in Tom Goes to the Mayor.
As a young boy growing up in Centerville I was extremely lucky to have a dad who brought me to each high school football game from an early age, and because of that I will always have great memories of Hawk. He was even more of a beast than in college, and I still think of him as a running back rather than a linebacker because at that age offense was all I cared about. A true OSU legend, plus nobody flips off his own sideline like AJ.
I can assure you I did, I just tried to keep it down. Anyone who heard it was in stitches, that's for sure.

EPA Could Reduce Ethanol Requirement Any Day
Friday, November 15th, 2013
The federal Environmental Protection Agency seems poised over the next few days to lower the Renewable Fuels Standard requirement for 2014 – over the objections of some biofuels advocates – by nearly 3 million gallons.
The Energy Independence and Security Act passed by Congress in 2007 requires more and more ethanol and other biofuels in the market each year. But as cars become more efficient and Americans use less gas, experts warn that it's not possible to funnel enough ethanol into the market next year to meet the requirement.
Current law would force the fuel industry to soak up 18.15 million gallons of ethanol in 2014, but EPA is considering lowering that mandate to 15.21 million gallons, according to a report leaked to the media last month. At that level, only about 13 billion gallons of corn-based ethanol would be blended into the nation's gasoline supply, according to Reuters, down from 13.8 billion this year and 14.4 billion required by law for 2014.
"The devil is in the details. However, it is clear that if the EPA does what is implied … the RFS moves from being unworkable to quite manageable," Purdue University energy policy specialist Wally Tyner wrote in a report "The Biofuels Renewable Fuel Standard – EPA to the Rescue."
Federal officials have been open to reducing the requirement for biofuels in the past. In August, EPA slashed the 2013 requirement for cellulosic biofuel use to just 6 million gallons, far below the 14 million proposed earlier that year and the 1 billion gallons a year required in the 2007 law.
And even federal officials who testified before a Congressional subcommittee about the biofuels standard in late June said consumers won't absorb the amount of ethanol the law mandates in coming years.
"The RFS program is not projected to come close to achievement of the legislated target that calls for 36 billion gallons of renewable motor fuels use by 2022," said Adam Sieminski, the administrator for the Energy Information Administration of the energy department.
Both biofuels producers and gasoline refiners are waiting anxiously for EPA's decision, which could come any day. If EPA lowers the standard for 2014, the decision likely will be challenged.
"Groups within the biofuel industry are fully committed to challenging the rule in court if the EPA changes how it implements the standard," Paul Winters of the Biotechnology Industry Organization told Reuters. "We want to see the targets continue to be set at the highest-achievable level."
Several agricultural economists have predicted that farmers and ethanol manufacturers can meet the need in 2014 if the RFS is dropped to the 15-million-gallon range. This year's corn crop is a near record in lots of states after tough years of drought.
But petroleum sellers argue that fuel with more than 15 percent ethanol can damage an engine. That limits the amount of biofuel that can be sold.
Under the current RFS, the energy industry would have to blend 20.5 billion gallons of biofuels into gasoline in 2015 and 22.25 billion gallons in 2016. His calculations would reduce those totals to 16.58 billion in 2015 and 17.3 billion the following year.

![[Anime/SpeedRacer The Series]]
* [[WeaponizedCar All of those gadgets]] are wonderfuly useful and all, but one would assume that they'd add an awful lot of extra weight to a car whose ([[InformedAttribute presumed]]) primary purpose is a racing car. Particularly the jump-jacks, if you accept that their original purpose was to lift the car up for maintenance, something that you'd normally just use jackstands for (which collapse to be easily stored or set aside when not in use)
** The Mach 5 has an auto repair function for it's tires right? Putting built in jacks makes sense if you take this into account. Obviously you can't just press the "replace tire" button while the car is sitting on the ground and traditional jacks require the driver to get out of the car. So instead of jacking up the car, climbing back in, pressing the button for the auto repair then climbing back out collapsing and storing the jack and reentering the vehicle you press two buttons and you are ready to go again. I'd judge he extra weight is worth it.
![[Film/SpeedRacer The movie]]
* Speed can detect the Mach 5 driving stiffly and pulling to the left a little with the defensive modifications made to it, but neither he nor Trixie sense the weight of Spritle and Chim-Chim hiding in the trunk.
** [[FridgeBrilliance Because Chim-Chim and Spritle are almost always hiding in the trunk, thus the car is adjusted with their weight]].
* For all the impossible (and totally awesome) craziness going on that bit actually does make sense, he did not notice the weight because it was a casual drive with his girlfriend. In a race he would be paying much closer attention to the performance of the car to detect any problems before they cause him to crash.
** Except Spritle and Chim-Chim were in the back of the car during the cross-country race as well, and during the hairpin turns where their weight would likely have been a pretty big deal.
** Spritle and Chim-Chim didn't get into the trunk until the second half of the race (since they were home for the first half), and only after Pops and Sparky had tuned the Mach 5 to compensate for the pull Speed reported.
*** Most likely Speed assumed that the extra weight was from what ever Pops did to counter the pull.
*** Well, it makes sense that Pops being the MASTER TUNER that he is the trunk is placed in a way that make the balance keep fine whatever is placed in it, on the other hand the defensive modification made to the car are NOT balanced in any way.
* WHY does the Mach 5 need a trunk?!
** To make room for Spritle and Chim-chim of course.
*** A more mundane explanation is that in the movie-verse the Mach 5 is a production model car and not a racer, as it significantly differs in design to the Mach 4 and Mach 6 which are very specific types of racing cars called T-180s.
**** Not to mention that they use it in a rally race. Rally cars are almost always production models, highly modified to deal with the abuse and to squeeze out every last bit of speed and handling, but otherwise of recognizable make and model that can be found on any highway.
** Here's the REAL reason: Back in TheSixties when Speed Racer was made the Mach 5 needed a trunk to be considered a sports car (as opposed to a race car). Under the rules of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (sanctioning body for the 24 hours of LeMans) a sports car had to have two seats, a spare tire, and a trunk capable of carrying an officially sized suitcase. Given their prestige [[FollowTheLeader most other sanctioning bodies followed suit.]] Also--and this may be hard to imagine nowadays--in the 50s and 60's sports car racing was largely an amateur sport: most "race" cars were street legal and were actually driven to and from the track. For example JamesDean was killed (and his mechanic injured) by an inattentive driver while he was driving his new race car to a race meet in order to break it in. No trunk meant you couldn't carry any parts, tools, or clothing. And yes, history is replete with examples or people arriving at tracks in sports cars loaded like [[NationalLampoonsVacation the wagon queen family truckster.]]

Technote (FAQ)
Routers and servers in the DMZ are being monitored and SNMP cannot be used. Attributes on some systems need to be changed manually so they fit into a specific collection.
When trying to change the attributes, they are found to be read only. How is it possible, for example, set the "iscisco" attribute to TRUE?
NetView is an SNMP manager. If access is restricted to the SNMP agent on nodes, the function of NetView will be impaired. If the fields that NetView normally builds for itself are updated, some parts may work as desired but there is no guarantee that NetView will function as if it was able to fully manage the node. If restricting SNMP for security purposes, it may be necessary to tolerate with the restrictions that go along with that.
There is a utility with NetView that allows for updating of database fields on nodes. That utility is "/usr/OV/bin/nvdbimport". Check out the man page for usage information.

Three drugs have been approved in this new class of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs aimed at inhibiting integrase, the viral enzyme that catalyzes the two-step process of insertion of HIV DNA into the genome of the human cell. Integrase catalyzes a preparatory step that excises two nucleotides from one strand at both ends of the HIV DNA and a final "strand transfer" step that inserts the viral DNA into the exposed regions of cellular DNA. The integrase inhibitor drug class targets this second step in the integration process. Integration is required for the stable maintenance of the viral genome as well as for efficient viral gene expression and replication. Integrase also affects retrotranscription and viral assembly. Host cells lack the integrase enzyme. Because HIV integrase represents a distinct therapeutic target, integrase inhibitors would be expected to maintain activity against HIV that is resistant to other classes of ARV drugs.

Clean Eating Chicken And White Bean Chili (Video)
I've gotta tell you guys… I've never appreciated one-pot meals (that leave me with plenty of leftovers) more than I do now that I've got my two little ones!
I know you Moms out there can relate (and even those of you who are Aunt, Uncles, Grandmas, Grandpas, etc. know what I'm talking about).
Kids have a way of keeping us busy (understatement of the day) and it's our job to find very creative ways to keep them busy.
Like creating a nail salon on the kitchen counter.
What can I tell you… the girl is OBSESSED with nail polish and who I am to stand in her little girl way?
Besides, she's not all that good at it and it takes her a reeeaally long time to finish and that my dear readers is how I get to work on OUR recipes! Well that and some nanny help of course, but who's counting?!
And then there's this guy.
This one promises to eat me out of house and home (8 and 1/2 months already and just 3 lbs lighter than his big sister!).
Oh my Lord, this boy has an appetite. Clearly, my son.
All the more reason I need to practice my big-fat-one-pot-meals.
So in a nut shell, this chili is quick, it's easy and absolutely delicious. It's the perfect meal for anyone looking for a warm pot of nutritious yum to fuel your belly (and your body) on these chilly (or not-so-chilly) winter days.
Lots of protein and lots of fiber, just the way I like it!
Hope you enjoy this one as much as we did… now go watch the video:)!

- 4 scallions, thinly scallions
Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook for about five minutes or until the onions are beginning to soften. Add in the garlic and cumin and cook for another minute or so. Be sure to give it all a good stir to make sure the cumin as coated the onions and the garlic.
Add chili Verde, chicken broth, and chicken breasts into the pot. Bring everything to a boil, reduce the heat, pop on a lid and simmer for about twenty minutes. Carefully, remove the chicken from the pot and place into a large shallow bowl to cool.
In the meantime, add the beans and corn into the pot along with some salt and pepper. Use the side of your fork to mash some of the beans up against the side of the pot (this will help to thicken the chili a bit).
Once the chicken has cooled, shred with your fingers and add it back into the pot along with the cilantro and scallions. Simmer for another five minutes or so and then serve!
Try topping with some fresh chopped avocado or a dollop of Greek yogurt!
Makes about 8 cups (6 servings).

Dani – your kids are ADORABLE!! Get them in some movies so they can earn their food!! Also, I LOVE chicken chili – with a bit of sour cream stirred in at the end – totally become my go to meal!!
This looks and sounds sooo good.
I recently made a similar but variation, except mine a little chopped bacon as well as sauteeed sliced mild italain sausage…..and tomatoes instead of the greens you used.
Thanks for recipe, plus I see a beautiful family coming along nicely…..and now you have a beautiful boy….not to mention your daughter looks like a carbon copy of you.
Thanks again
Made this today, and it is FANTASTIC. I had Trader Joe's Roasted frozen corn on hand, so I used that, also threw in a can of fire roasted diced tomatoes. This is a keeper!
Love the new pics of the "minis" too
Love this post, video and how cute are your kids!! So adorable
Especially love how your daughter is applying nail polish — I can never do it anymore, in that position
Wow look how big Katie is now! and your little man is growing so fast I feel like a big online foodie family reunion when I see them : ) Dani your kids are adorable I could pinch there little cheeks lol
Thanks for sharing your family and recipes with all of us on here
That chili will be made at my house sometime in the next week or two! It looks delicious and I will let you know how it turned out.
I've got mine cookin' away in my slow cooker right now!!! Can't wait for a hearty, Oscar-night one pot dinner Wanna come over with the kiddies and see how I did?
Hello from Ireland Dani:)
Is there anything else i can use instead of the chili verde? I cant find anything like this here and i really really want to make this! I was looking online to try and maybe make it myself but all the recipes include pork or other meats and the only meat i eat is chicken or turkey breast meat.
Please help Dani, love your recipes!!!!
Hey Dani! I love your videos! What could I substitute for corn? Edamame? I'd love to hear your response. Thanks!
Is this recipe spicy? My kids won't do spicy :(.
Making this for the Vikings vs. Packers game tonight! Let's hope it brings good luck for the Vikings
Loved this! My guys and I aren't fans of corn, so I used kale. And, I used only 2oz of diced green chiles and added a fourth cup of broth to make it a little more soupy. Was so delicious and healthy!!
I LOVED THIS CHILI!!!! It was so flavorful and warm. I love soups, gumbos, bisques, and chilis all year round so I made this dish this summer but I can't wait to have it during the months when its gets cooler. I am actually wishing for a nice snow day this winter to make this and snuggle up with my sweetie. Thanks Dani…your recipes helped me eat cleaner and lose some weight.
