I did a chili from scratch after a long time, and it turned out excellent. Just the right amount of kick, just the right amount of flavor, just the right amount of chunkiness, and with half ground beef and half finely diced beef which turned out beautifully tender instead of leathery.

However, the heartburn/acid reflux is very real. :(

Dane of the Year according to one newspaper here is Dan Uzan. He was a volunteer guard for the synagogue where they celebrated a bar mitzvah that night in February when a crazed muslim tried to enter loaded with assault rifles.

Dan was shot and died trying to stop the terrorist and succeeded in that he delayed the attacker long enough for police to arrive.

Remember that Brit peacenik group, Stop The War, that caught all kinds of heat for saying that the Maidan protesters were fascists and the fighting in the Ukraine was caused by Western meddling?  I just learned that the newly elected head of the Labour Party used to lead STW, just resigned that after he won shadow PM.

I do not remember this, but I'm not surprised.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Also in the same Economist article, it mentioned that STW held conferences on bombing ISIS, invited some Syrian groups, but disinvited them it turned out they were in favor of bombing.  ^_^
