Yeah, it has papers all the way back to the 1800s.

It can be frustrating to see all the same issues being discussed 20-30-40 years later, but it is nice to see progress in some areas.

What i find interesting is that before Alberta was established in 1905, some newspapers just say like "Calgary, North West Territories", some say "Alberta district", some just say "Alberta"



It would be neat to find one from when Lethbridge was still Fort Whoop-Up

e: from back when the US Government outlawed native dances and traditions in their attempted genocide.

Pretty sure the one true chili uses kidney beans friend



Seriously though, any bean is good in chili, unless you go overboard and it's the main protein. It's chili. It's cooked down meat and peppers, not loving Bean Soup. It's there to give a bit of body to the base when you miss a hunk of shredded beef. Nothing more.

Brown the hell out of 2-3lbs of stew meat.
Add too much garlic, onion, jalapenos, and bell peppers.
Toast a tablespoon of cumin seeds, a bunch of ancho Chiles, a couple dried bird's eye chilies. Grind/blend them all together to a powder.
Big can of diced tomatoes you drained.
Huck it all in the dutch oven with a shot of vodka.
Top it up with beef stock, cover, bake it for as long as you can stand at 300ish. Check it every 30 minutes or so and add stock/salt/pepper as needed. Near the end the spoon should stand up, and the meat should be falling apart.

Throw kidney beans in near the end if you want.

Add a touch of cinnamon or dark chocolate when you combine it all if you want. It's chili. Just make it.

Try throwing the garlic in at the last of your 30 minute check/stir intervals. You don't need as much to make an impact and it doesn't get all bitter.

brown some lamb (beef if it's too expensive in yankland, but it won't be as good)
throw in some spuds (chopped into wedges), most of a bottle of red wine, some harissa, some ground cumin, some ground ginger, some turmeric.
add capers, pitted black olives and preserved lemon

boil, place lid on, into the oven at ~160C for ~ 2hours.

it worked a treat for me tonight!

if it's too watery, reduce a bit on the stovetop, but you're not aiming for gravy here.

another one I like to do is variations on this lentil stew recipe using whatever I have in the house

Edit 2: I just got back from a friend's house. They have an Audi S5 convertible whose top wouldn't go down. Superior German engineering doesn't show that the front bar of the safety basket in the trunk got cocked, so it thought that there was interference continually. Shoved the bar across a couple gears to make it engage where the limit switch is and... look at that, the top goes up and down like it should. I'm sure it would have been a $500+ diagnostic/repair charge from Audi.

Nice! I have a job digitizing my local newspaper right now, so I've just been getting them from the images. I've learned the next town over in the 1970s had a drive-in that showed mostly grindhouse/maybe porn? I don't know, I think the line between exploitation film and porn is best unseen. Oh, and I only know of Mandingo thanks to Archer, though Quentin Tarantino is on record on its wiki as saying it was one of two times a major studio went full exploitation. Did you know it had a sequel?

I think she means she CAN since transitioning or during? I've definitely read a few people's experiencing emotions for the first time after transitioning on these forums. Sorry if I'm confusing you with someone else though.


Anyway, I'm in this same boat with my girlfriend, I've brought it up a few times now. We caught it far too late, with her only symptom being liver pain meaning that her breast cancer had already metastasized and spread before we knew she had any cancer. I don't know what type your sister has, but our oncologist has brought up the possibility of oral meds after treatment. I don't think a lot of cancer research funding makes it to metastatic cancer (IE, "here to stay" What they mean is that just because they can't detect it, since it's metastasized even just one single cancerous cell can be lurking and start growing) but I do believe they've been making some progress on fighting/treating it. Yeah, maintenance treatments and scans for the rest of someone's life will suck, but you just have to hope for the best. I will say though, please be there for her as much as you possibly can. Having a support network helps.

On my side, step dad is wrapping up his first full round of chemo. Feels great, sounds great, has a great appetite and other than some nausea which lasted a day about 4 days after treatments, no real side effects. Gets a follow up 2 weeks from now and some tests to see how the lung cancer has been responding. Still, preparing for the worst but hoping for the best. Probably be something in between I imagine.

Please do. At this point I don’t know how many are reading the thread :ohdear: I need validation from my peers.

I think the GX won’t have the towing capacity of your Escalade; and if you did laden it more than normal you might need to install some of those neat helper air spring things. If not towing a ton/often and your not using three car seats across the center row then go for it. Mileage likely won’t be much better but it won’t be worse. It’ll likely be every bit as versatile as your Escalade. The off roading crowd is really taking a liking to them because they are inexplicably cheaper than the Toyota 4Runner and there are scads of cool things you can do with/to them.
