Sour grapes: Robbers empty Paris cellar of vintage wines
PARIS (AP) — A Paris wine collector returned from holiday this week to a nasty surprise, finding a hole in his cellar and emptiness where his valuable collection of vintage wines had been.
Paris police said Wednesday some 250 to 300 bottles, worth up to 1,000 euros ($1,200) each, were stolen from the cellar in the 6th arrondissement of Paris sometime between July 28 and Monday, while the owner was vacationing.
The robbers apparently broke through the wall of the basement cellar from the "Catacombs" network of tunnels under Paris. That they located the cellar so accurately from underground leads police to suspect the theft was carefully planned.
Police said the owner is still putting together an exhaustive list of the missing wines. The total loss could amount to as much as 250,000 euros ($300,000).
Police said two other cellars were also broken into but nothing was stolen from them.

How to prepare Baked Buffalo Wings in 8 easy steps

Baked Buffalo Wings Yield : 4 Serving  Time: 35 minutes  For chicken wings that come out of the oven as crisp and tender as their fried counterparts, coat the wings in salt and baking powder. The combination promotes even browning, crackly-crisp skin and moist, tender meat. (Do this for roast chicken, too!) Then, cook them directly under the high heat of the broiler, which renders fat and fuses the spicy buttery sauce to each wing. You can buy any combination of meaty drumettes, wingettes (flats) or wing tips, or buy whole wings and break them down yourself, cutting at the joints to separate each wing into three pieces. Looking for a vegetarian version — or simply to add some vegetables to your spread?  INGREDIENTS   FOR THE BLUE CHEESE DIP: 3   ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup) ¼   cup mayonnaise ¼   cup sour cream 1   tablespoon fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar 1 to 3   tablespoons milk or buttermilk, or to taste   K...
