really her speech touched my heart. she became very emotional and could not complete her speech. i loved every bit of it. she worked very hard for it. and the improvement she has shown really deserves to be rewarded. she is a fast learner and if she continues working hard and improve on her few weak points then i'm sure she'll win many more awards in the future.

Johann Jakob Moser
|It has been suggested that Johann Jacob Moser be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since December 2014.
Johann Jakob Moser (18 January 1701 – 30 September 1785) was a German jurist, publicist and researcher, whose work earned him the title "The Father of German Constitutional Law" and whose political commitment to the principles of Liberalism caused him to lose academic positions and spend years as a political prisoner.
Moser was born and died in Stuttgart. After attending Eberhard-Ludwigs-Gymnasium,[1] he studied at the University of Tübingen, and was brilliant enough to be already at the age of 19 appointed a professor of Law in the same university .
Soon afterwards he entered the civil service of the Holy Roman Empire, and was appointed as a "state adviser" in the Imperial Court. He held a long series of administrative appointments, giving him a thorough knowledge of political and constitutional issues.
In 1736 he was called to head the Faculty of Law at the University of Frankfurt (Oder), but had to leave after three years due to his thoroughly Liberal ideas which were disliked by King Frederick William I of Prussia.
He spent the years 1739 to 1747 at Ebersdorf, mainly concerned with completing the monumental 53 volumes of his Deutsches Staatsrecht ("German Constitutional Law"), a pioneering research analysing the named subject matter more systematically than ever done before, and based on a through study of the sources.
In 1751 he was appointed a political adviser at Stuttgart, and soon became involved in a struggle – lasting until 1759 – against the absolutist tendencies of Karl Eugen, Duke of Württemberg. With the exacerbation of this struggle, Moser was charged with authoring a subversive writing harmful to the ruler, and spent the following five years in prison.
In 1764 he was released, due in part to the intercession of Friedrich the Great of Prussia (son of the king who had hounded Moser in 1739). He was rehabilitated and restored to his position, rank and titles.
Among his important later works can be mentioned Neues deutsches Staatsrecht, ("New German Constitutional Law"), published in 24 volumes between 1766 and 1782. His overall ouvre includes about 500 works, on law as well as theology.
His son, Friedrich Karl von Moser, was also a jurist.

Let $A=d/dx$ and $B=d/dy$ be vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^2$, prove that they induce vector fields $X$ and $Y$ on the torus $T$ by $X(f)=A(f(\pi)), Y(f)=B(f(\pi))$ where $\pi$ is quotient map from $\mathbb{R}^2$ to torus.
Well, the torus can be defined as the quotient space $T=\Bbb R^2/\sim$, where $(u,v)\sim(u',v')$ iff $(u'-u),(v'-v)\in\Bbb Z$. Best is to draw on a squared paper.. Vectors of $A$ go right, $B$ goes up, with unit speed.
In particular, it is represented by the unit square $[0,1]^2$.
Practically, all we have to prove is that if points $U\sim V$ then $AU = AV$ and $BU=BV$. In this case, all smooth functions $f$ on $T$ can be 'lifted' to $\Bbb R^2$, i.e. can be viewed as a $\Bbb Z$-periodic function $f:\Bbb R^2\to\Bbb R$, that is, $fU\sim fV$ if $U\sim V$. And so..

Giro d'Italia, or Giro d'America?
The best part of cycling is the geography. Almost all other sports take place within arenas, which are practical for viewing the competition, but lack dramatic scenery (unless you count the Laker Girls). The Giro d'Italia, meanwhile, is one week into its centennial edition, with a course that is as much a historical and cultural tour of Western civilization as it is a bicycle race.
How does the Giro stack up against our events in North America this month? We go to the Tale of the Tape
Giro d'Italia: Finishes outside the nearly 2,000-year-old Roman Colosseum, which once held up to 50,000 spectators for gladiator fights, mock sea battles and other spectacular exhibitions.
Giro d'America: The Oakland Athletics play in the 43-year-old Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, which regularly seats up to 12,000 fans to watch Jason Giambi take a 3-1 pitch for a walk.

Edge: Giro d'America
Giro d'Italia: Stage 19 will cover 100 miles, winding along the cliffs of the Amalfi coast, passing near the ruins of Pompeii and climbing to a finish atop Mount Vesuvius.
Giro d'America: Indianapolis 500 drivers will race around and around and around the same 2.5-mile concrete oval for more than three hours.
Edge: Giro d'Italia
Giro d'Italia: The race leader wears a skin-tight pink top. Yes, pink.
Giro d'America: CC Sabathia, fortunately, wears figure-flattering pinstripes.
Edge: Giro d'America
Giro d'Italia: Cyclists will ride more than 2,100 miles in 21 stages, riding as many as 156 miles in one afternoon while averaging about 23 miles per hour overall.
Giro d'America: Golfers at the Byron Nelson will walk 18 miles over four days, averaging close to 1 mile per hour while caddies carry their clubs.
Edge: Giro d'Italia
Giro d'Italia: St. Peter's Basilica, Brunelleschi's Duomo and the monastery at Monte Cassino.

Giro d'Italia: Stage 13 ends in Florence, near the museum which houses Michelangelo's David -- perhaps the world's greatest single piece of art.
Giro d'America: Cincinnati's ballpark has a statue of Ted Kluszewski, displaying the former Reds slugger with his biceps and shoulders bared.
Edge: Giro d'Italia
Giro d'Italia: Can Lance Armstrong return from retirement and a recently broken collarbone to win his first Giro?

January 15, 2014 - Target is now offering its shoppers free credit monitoring and identity theft protection in the wake of the massive data breach announced in December. Better Business Burea® suggests that Target shoppers who may have been impacted by the breach take advantage of this service to better monitor credit lines.
Names, phone numbers, mailing addresses and email addresses of up to 70 million Target shoppers were compromised along with debit and credit card information of 40 million people in the hack. The stolen information can expose a consumer to credit card fraud, possible identity theft and can drain bank accounts.
ProtectMyID, the complimentary service offered through Experian, is available to all guests who shopped at Target's U.S. stores and includes access to your credit report, daily credit monitoring, identity theft insurance and personalized assistance. Shoppers have until April 23, 2014 to sign up for an activation code to ProtectMyID. Once the activation code is received via email, it must be used by April 30, 2014.
Target advises consumers who do sign up for free credit monitoring to continue to review their accounts and report unusual or suspicious activity to their bank or call Target's hotline (866-852-8680) for help. Shoppers have zero liability for the cost of any fraudulent charges related to the breach.
Consumers should also be on the lookout for fraudulent emails, letters and phone calls from criminals posing as Target or their bank, requesting personal information. Delete any suspicious emails and never download any attachments from unknown senders. Always hang up the phone if a call seems suspicious.
Your BBB has also joined a national cyber security initiative along with Target, the National Cyber Security Alliance and the National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance to help educate the public about consumer scams and the threat of phishing in the wake of the data breach.
For more information about the free credit monitoring program, visit Target's FAQ website or sign up for the program here.
Start With Trust. For more consumer tips and information, visit wynco.bbb.org.

My girlfriend and I have been having sex and she said she wants to role play as master and slave and she wants me to make her do stuff and when she refuses punish her. what kinda stuff can I make her do? and how can I "punish" her when she refuses?
Most Helpful Girl
I had a boyfriend who was great at this. My first tip is act calm and speak deeply and slowly. This seems more authoritative and less creepy/weird.
My second tip is, make up transgressions. For example, my ex would say stuff like, "I was disappointed that you didn't answer your phone today. Do you think that is acceptable behavior?" And so on.
To "punish" her, I bet she would enjoy it if you put her over your knee. Or made her do certain things for you... You can tie up her hands with a tshirt or something...
For more tips, check out books published by "Elloras Cave".

Extjs is cool; but very slow on firefox !
(sorry for my poor english)
I test ExtJS and it's very good... Grid and EditorGrid are very good tools. And on Internet Explorer 6 or 7 , it's rapid.
BUT on firefox (all versions), it's very slow ! Normal or it's a know problem ?
Thanks for your responses.
31 Aug 2007 4:13 PM #2
it's weird cause for me it's the opposite.
very fast on Firefox, medium speed on IE7 and laggy on IE6....-->

With firebug disabled and webdevelopper disabled on firefox.. it's rapid. Not too rapid than Internet Explorer but it's correct.

Will this be fixed in ext.js 2.0 ?
When enabling javascript.options.strict (in about:config) in FF, firebug shows lots of warnings.
This is why pages are loading slowly.
I'm using ext.js 1.1.1 full.-->
20 Sep 2007 6:42 AM #8
it only runs slowly if javascript.options.strict is on, as FF then makes the attempt at strict syntax checking (that's the overhead), not because some Extjs code generates strict warnings."be dom-ready..."

Even after following all the suggestions above, Extjs grid is extremely slow. Under Chrome and IE its wicked fast. I have no problems loading 600 rows with 5 columns under Chrome or IE. What is strange is when I go to scroll up or down with the slider or pressing up/down arrows the CPU is pegged. But if I scroll with the middle mouse wheel there is no delay. Moving Column headers around there is delay.
Any ideas?-->

Does this happen with the buffered grid view as well?

Linux Entertainment in Airbus A380
When the Singapore Airlines Airbus A380 takes off for its maiden flight October 25, it will have a complete Linux client/server system on board.
The in-flight entertainment system, "KrisWorld", on board of the new Airbus A380 jumbo is based on Red Hat Linux, at least for Singapore Airlines machines. The core of the entertainment system is a server with several terabytes of storage capacity. Every seat, no matter what class, will have a network client with a VIA processor and an additional 40GB of local storage. This doesn't mean that there are no "class distinctions": business class passengers can look forward to 15.4" screens, whereas economy class passengers have to make do with 10.4". First class passengers will have 23" displays.
The system offers various entertainment components, such as video and music on demand, 22 radio streams and 65 different games. To allow passengers to make meaningful use of the time they spend above the clouds, passengers have access to the Staroffice office suite by Sun Microsystems. Users can access their own documents via a USB port. The ports also allow passengers to attach their own input devices, meaning that business passengers can leave their laptops behind.
The system will also be deployed in the upcoming Boeing 787 Dreamliner. The airline is currently updating previous systems in its planes.

text: A friend of mine recently went to Canada and brought back a burned copy of a disc by this Toronto band Holy Fuck, saying the kids are going ape shit over their manic electronic improv. I'm a sucker for straight, to the point exclamations as band monikers, so I became intrigued. After checking out the disc, I would recommend giving the Holy Fuck a spin, as it's some truly unusual shit. "No laptops, no samplers, no synths," just toys, gadgets, bass, drums, and weird stuff. They were the backing act for Beans at the most recent Coachella. Prog-dance rock in the house.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Anyone know if it is possible to get a non-domain Server to pick-up it's updates from a domain included WSUS server?
Just thinking about Hyper-V host Servers, in a single server environment clearly this cannot be part of the domain because at the time the VM Host boots the Domain Controllers is not available. However is there any way to make this Hyper-V Host collect it's updates from the WSUS server.

Arsenal, Villa, Fulham May Swap Keepers, Mirror Says: Roundup
The following is a roundup of soccer stories from U.K. newspapers, with clickable links to the Web.
Three-Way Swap
Aston Villa may take Arsenal goalkeeper Manuel Almunia as part of a three-way swap that would bring Fulham goalie Mark Schwarzer to the Gunners, the Daily Mirror said.
Fulham would get Villa's Brad Friedel, who wants to leave the club, which is without a manager since Martin O'Neill quit this week, the newspaper said.
Fight for 14-Year-Old
Chelsea will sign 14-year-old Burkina Faso prospect Bertrand Traore, seeing off a challenge from Manchester United, the Sun said.
The midfielder was a standout during the Under-17 World Cup last year, the newspaper said.
Roque for Fulham
New Fulham manager Mark Hughes wants Manchester City striker Roque Santa Cruz to join his club, the Mail said.
Hughes brought Santa Cruz to Blackburn Rovers from Bayern Munich, and later recruited him for City. The Paraguay national team member is concerned he might not make City's 25-player squad, the newspaper said.
Villa Run
Aston Villa may give acting coach Kevin MacDonald a longer spell in charge as the club tries to find a replacement for O'Neill, the Guardian said.
MacDonald, who was the reserve manager, may stay in place for several weeks or longer, the newspaper said. American owner Randy Lerner flew to Birmingham this week to discuss replacements, the Guardian said.
20 Million-Pound Cole
West Ham will sell striker Carlton Cole if Liverpool offers 20 million pounds ($31.2 million), the Sun said.
The London club turned down a 12 million-pound bid from Stoke and is demanding more from Liverpool because there's little time to find a replacement with the season starting this weekend, the newspaper said.

I'm building a breadbox that will hold multiple loaves of bread. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to put a gasket around the lid to reduce air infiltration but I don't know what is more important. So is the key to keep out light or air or both?
Mold grows best in warm, moist conditions. It's a fungus, not a plant; light has nothing to do with it. Fresh air doesn't really make it grow either, but circulating air does help reduce condensation, depriving mold of moisture. So you really don't want to seal a breadbox - that'll just help create a nice moist environment for the mold to grow in.
Breadboxes are really just about keeping other pests away from your bread, while still being able to keep it at room temperature. (It goes stale faster in the fridge.) If you're worried about mold growth, you probably just want to freeze some of the bread.

AUBURN, Alabama -- Tre Mason made quite a splash in his first college game last Saturday by returning a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown.
The SEC noticed and named him Monday the league's co-freshman of the week with Alabama linebacker Trey DePriest.
Mason had 176 yards on four kickoff returns in Auburn's 42-38 win over Utah State. His total is tied for the third most in school history.
Mason said he had a good road to the touchdown.

Although the severe winter led to thousands of flight cancellations, American Airlines and Southwest Airlines reported record first-quarter profits that beat analysts' expectations.
JetBlue Airways eked out a profit in what is the seasonally weakest period for airlines. United Airlines posted a loss.
All the airlines said the outlook for spring and summer was good.
American and US Airways, whose merger created the world's largest airline, posted a net profit of $480 million. As separate companies, American, which was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and US Airways lost a combined total of $297 million a year ago.
The profit was helped by the sale of takeoff and landing slots at Washington's Reagan National Airport, which the Justice Department required to settle an antitrust lawsuit against the merger.

Jon Stewart Would Like to Remind You That Cable News Is Mind-Numbingly Oversimplified
CNN asks, "Is that good or bad?"
The Daily Show, though usually preaching to its sardonic choir, is still the best there is at illustrating just how inane the mainstream media can be. In a wonderful example last night, Jon Stewart beat up on CNN for constantly boiling down complicated issues to — literally — "good or bad?" It was good! "Nobody watches this network unless they're in the airport," he admitted, halfheartedly explaining the epic dumbing-down. And sure, the other networks do it, too, but "when Fox asks, they know the answer."

yep, I've just watched the movie "The Smurfs 2".
I just had to, because I was a huge fan of the Smurfs when I was little, and I was actually pleasantly surprised with this movie. It was pretty cool...!
And I loved that they included my favorite Smurf early in the movie: Hefty!
I was such a Hefty fangirl as a kid... So when I saw him in the movie, my inner child/fangirl shouted that I just had to draw him
So here he is: Hefty! My version of him, at least

The beautiful (con) game

,Laurent Kabila
,Sani Abacha
, andFoday Sanko
. I was distinctly honored, naturally, to be invited to join banking ventures with these esteemed individuals.
Not being an international financier, however, I was unqualified to participate in any of these lucrative transactions. And so I considered myself duly fortunate finally to receive a solicitation in an area of my own interest: The World Cup. The fact that this business proposal involved Africa's greatest statesman and moral beacon? Well, you can imagine that the thrill was greater than scoring a goal in Germany 2006 with my own left foot.
DESK OF CHAIRMAN Sub-Committee on Finance South African World Cup bid 2010 24 Steven Bikko Blvrd Pretoria, Republic Of South Africa. Email: REDACTED Attn: Ceo,
Greetings you must be aware now that my country The Republic of South Africa won the bid to host the world cup by 2010, prior to this bid my committee was mandated to lobby the members of board of Federation International Football Association (FIFA) on selection of the country to host the world, the bidding was intensive but at the end we got the hosting right.
My committee was given the sum of $29 million dollars to lobby the members of the FIFA ruling body to make sure that we win the hosting right considering he gain that comes with the hosting right like South Africa's economy will receive a massive direct boost from hosting the 2010 World Cup, financial impact report for South Africa's World Cup bid committee shows that the 2010 World Cup will pump R21.3-billion into South Africa's economy, and creating an estimated 159 000 new jobs.
With the help the living legend of our time 85-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Nelson Mandela who made an emotive case for The Republic of South Africa, we got the bid without spending all the money, I and my committee members saw this as a God sent opportunity to secure our future and that of our family therefore was mandated by other committee members to look for a way to move the remaining money to a safe place with the help of a foreigner who we can trust and is ready to assist us to move the funds considering the fact that we are still members of the bid committee and in the eyes of the public.
We have in our possession the sum $21 millon since we spent just $8 million for lobbying. We are ready to give you 20% for all your assistance then me and my colleagues will keep 80% lf you are willing kindly reply to my letter for further directive. we will want to invest our share into Real-estate and air taxi business in your country with your assistance, bearing in mind that confidentiality is of great essences so is time in this project I will await your response.
Best Regards Mr.Mike Muyeke
All responses should be sent to: REDACTED

With Sniper Elite for the PS2, Namco introduces a World War II sniper simulation that will surprise all military enthusiasts. This First Person-Third Person hybrid military action game combines accurate military detail with awesome game play. The fictional storyline follows that of any great military plot. The setting is spring 1945 during World War II, with the Russians and Germans battling it out for control of Berlin. You play an American soldier trained as a sniper by the OSS. Your main objective is to help prevent the Russian Secret Service (NKVD) in Berlin from stealing atomic bomb technology from the German army. Sniper Elite features 28 challenging missions that test your ability to use all aspects of sniping.
This military shooter leaves no stone unturned. As a sniper, you use stealth and precision accuracy to infiltrate enemy positions and gain the upper hand. I must confess, prior to playing Sniper Elite for the first time, I really hadn't heard much about it. This one separates itself from the pack of military games and stands out as a hidden gem. Your missions range from eliminating the enemy to rescue operations, all in a World War II setting. The main emphasis throughout the game is using the military art of sniping. A trained sniper has to have the ability to become the environment and strike when the time is right using high powered precision military rifles.
In Sniper Elite, the choice of weapons are mainly those of foreign militaries. Those seeking classic WWII American military rifles such as the M1 Garand will not find them here. Instead, you get to use rifles such as the Mosin-Nagant M91 and the German built Gewehr 43. Sniper Elite truly follows every aspect of the sniping tradecraft, which gives the gamer an unprecedented accurate experience. For the most part, you have to sneak around these war-torn cities and use your environment to shield you. There are plenty of objects such as cars, blown out homes and random junk that you can use to provide cover from the enemy. Likewise, there is a camouflage indicator, which gives you a percentage of how visible you are to the enemy. The emphasis of concealment from the enemy is absent from most military shooters, but is present in Sniper Elite.
So obviously if you're prone in the middle of the street the enemy will see you. To counter this you have to hide in windows or corners. Besides having to cover yourself from the enemy to get a clear shot, Sniper Elite goes a step further by adding other realistic features that replicate the difficulties of getting a clean shot. Unlike other military games, wind correction, heartbeat and range all are factors in your shot. You have to synchronize your heartbeat and wind correction to land the perfect headshot. Some gamers might ask - with all of these features, it must be impossible to land a good headshot, right? Wrong, after a few tries gamers will get used to all of these factors and will start landing headshots in no time.
Once you start to master the art of sniping, you'll be landing perfect long-distance headshots. Whenever you land a headshot, you immediately see a cut scene that follows your bullet all the way to the target. This is really cool and shows the gamer where his shot landed. They even list the distance at which you landed a shot. Thus far my longest shot was a clean 155-yard headshot to an NKVD soldier on a rooftop. Not bad for an urban area of operation. But by the time you are reading this, I've probably beaten that - so hold off on your e-mails on how you've beaten that mark.

Journal Watch
by Jerome A. Chanes
Lifnei seiva takum, v'hadarta p'nei zaken — "You shall rise up before the elder, and you shall honor the old person." Kabed et avicha v'et imecha — "Honor your father and your mother." These two normative biblical principles, separate albeit related, inform much of Jewish life and by extension our larger society, often — and sadly — more in the breach than in the observance. Noteworthy is the fact that the injunction to honor one's parents is one of two in the Hebrew Bible for which the reward for performance is specifically articulated, in each case "in order that your days will be lengthened" — long life. The linkage of veneration of the aged and respect for one's parents is explored in Rabbinic literature, as neatly outlined by J. Gordon Harris of the North American Baptist Seminary. In "Rabbinic Responses to Aging" (Hebrew Studies, 2007), Harris tracks, progressively through the Mishna, Talmud and Midrash — with each extending the biblical emphasis on parental devotion — the elevation of old age and of filial obligations in ancient and Rabbinic Jewish societies. Harris notes that Judaism differed from other societies, such as the Roman one, which stressed patria potestas, or "parental authority" or power. Jewish law and tradition framed its admonitions in terms of responsibility, with Jewish teachings ensuring "an exalted status for parents extending into old age." That's Judaism. Journal Watcher asks, what about the other "Abrahamic" faiths — Christianity and Islam? Is there a commonality amongst the three faith communities in terms of how we relate to aging and to the aged? And how did each community contour its approach to veneration of the elderly as central to the ordering of society? University of Miami's Stephen Sapp, in his comprehensive "Mortality and Respect: Aging in the Abrahamic Traditions" (Generations, Summer, 2008), tackles this question. Sapp's starting point is the centrality, in all three faiths, of respect for parents. In each faith this respect for parents is generalized to all older people. Sapp traces how this dynamic set the tone in the earlier communities and for those that followed, to the present. Judaism, Islam, Christianity — each understands two key concepts with respect to the aged: first, the acknowledgement of mortality, which is central to accepting aging and dealing with it constructively; and second, the respect of one's elders. Sapp notes that from the outset in the Jewish tradition the very positioning of the commandment "Honor your father and your mother," coming as it does between those that refer to the relationship with God and those that govern interactions with other human beings, "suggests the centrality the Law places on properly ordered generational relationships to a correctly ordered human community." In the New Testament and in the Koran as well, society's protection of the elderly begins with protection of the family, which is paradigmatic for the protection of the society as a whole. Social psychologist and psychotherapist Eva Fogelman of the Training Institute for Mental Health studies goes in a radically different direction in terms of the service that the elderly provide to society. For Fogelman ("Psychological Dynamics in Aging Survivors of the Holocaust," Clio's Psyche, December 2008), the study of aging Holocaust survivors is a vehicle for showing how the persecution of and losses suffered by the survivors led to their unique experience of aging — "their old age is marred by massive traumatic historical catastrophe" — which is different from other elderly who led lives under more normal circumstances. Survivors did not have the opportunity, at the time, to mourn family members who were killed by the persecutors. Aging survivors, as they face their own death, now undergo this mourning process. Family members, and survivors themselves, often do not understand this dynamic; it is an unconscious process. Fogelman notes that many survivors are able to overcome despair, and the depression that comes out of despair, by using their traumatic past as a vehicle to "bear witness," and thereby have their past validated by others. The personal integrity of the survivors is thereby restored; at the same time, the aged survivors fulfill their generational role by teaching future generations. In American culture, the aged are not valued, we do not rise before the elderly and the old person is rarely honored. The Jewish aged teach us that integrity in Judaism is not based on victimology; Jewish identity is not perpetuated through victimhood. The aged are our living link to the past, and we learn from them; they are a reminder to us of the resilience of the human spirit.

Tangy Greek Chicken Soup (Crock Pot or Not)
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 6 hrs
I created this soup with all of our favorite flavors and ingredients in mind. You may omit the vinegar, if you would like it less tart. Cook time includes 6 hours in the crock pot.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 3 large potatoes, roughly diced
- 18 baby carrots, sliced
- 1 onion, coarsely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 236.59 ml marinated artichoke hearts, drained, coarsely chopped
- 1 lemon, juice of
- 2 (850.48 g) can chicken broth
- 236.59 ml white wine
- 59.14 ml white wine vinegar
- 29.58 ml fresh oregano or 14.79 ml dried oregano
- 0.59-1.23 ml black pepper
- 0.59-1.23 ml lemon pepper
- 0.59-1.23 ml garlic powder
- 0.59-1.23 ml onion powder
- 0.59-1.23 ml ground coriander
- 0.59-1.23 ml sugar
- Place all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook 1 hour on high, then 5 hours on low (or 7 hours on low, if you are not available to switch crock pot from high to low).
- If you don't have a crock pot, soup can just as easily be simmered for a long time on the stove, until the chicken is falling apart, about 3 hours.
- Before serving, break up chicken into large bite size pieces, and taste for salt.

What a delicious soup. I love broth soups. It cooked on low for about 6 hrs on low and it was well cooked in that time. It's flavor is on the acidic side but it's quite pleasant and a welcome change from the usual chicken soup. The artichoke is yumm but I did trim back on the vinegar by half. This soup and a toasted bun made a great Fall dinner.
grrrrr... YummY! Spiced it on the heavy side, and used chicken tenderloins. Other than that recipe went unchanged and was excellent! That touch of tangy-ness is exactly what chicken soup needs these days. Thanks Maito!
Just finished enjoying my soup for lunch and found myself tipping the thermos and scraping the sides in order to savor every morsel. The combination of the lemon, wine and vinegar (and the herbs) married into a tangy and rich base that showcased each of the soup components turning a "fix-it and forget it" preparation into an unforgettable meal. I made three smallish changes, none of which diminished the results: used bullion instead of broth and replaced the marinated artichokes with the plain canned variety. In both instances, my choice to use the higher amounts of the herbs ans spices along with 1 tablespoon of fresh chopped Greek oregano compensated nicely. Thanks.

Player of the Week: North's Jenkins

As one-half of the dynamic duo swiftly leading North Henderson football to big numbers offensively week in and week out, Arron Jenkins had yet another eye-catching performance Friday night to help the Knights defeat county and conference rival West Henderson at home.
Jenkins' performance makes him the choice for this week's Edward Jones/Times-News Prep Player of the Week Award, presented by Ryan Harman of Edward Jones Investments in Hendersonville.
The running back finished the night with 161 yards and three touchdowns while other half of the duo, Tre Carter, sat out for most of the game with a slight injury.
It was Jenkins' second big game, as he finished with 180 yards in the Knights' season opener against Rosman. He also had 92 yards against Hendersonville earlier this season.
"Arron is a workhorse. He had 180 yards for our first game and then 161 (Friday night)," said North head coach Doug Justice. "He runs the ball well and he's patient; we feel like we've got some kids on offense that can make the big plays."
Jenkins will be looked to again this Friday as North hosts yet another county and conference foe, East Henderson.
