The Bronco is the SUV that a lot of people are waiting for in the US. It was originally intended as a work vehicle but it later became a competitor for the Wrangler. Unfortunately it was discontinued back in '96 and replaced by the Expedition. This became a much bigger car than it though and because of that Ford was left without a compact crossover to compete with the Wrangler. The first concept for an upcoming Bronco was released back in 2004 but nothing was then said about it. Last year rumors about a 2018 Ford Bronco started to surface but Ford dismissed them and said that they were not currently working on such a car.
Interestingly enough though, a few months back a UAW official said that the Michigan plant where the Focus was built is not going to be closed. Why? Well, he also said that Ford is going to move there the production for the new generation Ranger and the new Bronco. This basically confirmed that the Bronco actually exists and it is well under development. So far Ford did not say all that much about it but we do know some facts. For starters, the development is actually happening in Australia where the upcoming generation of the Ranger is being developed. Despite that, the two models will be built in the US. The price is expected to be set right around $25,000 in order to compete with the Wrangler.
Ford Bronco 2018 – Is it the Everest?
Ford is already making a crossover based on the Ranger with the Everest. However, it seems that the 2018 Ford Bronco won't be it. Instead, it will be an all new model which will likely come with an entirely new design as well. Most rumors suggest a utilitarian design with a removable top, two and four door versions and a rather retro-modern feel. We do expect the Bronco to come with rugged materials inside and the latest generation gadgets needed by the young generation.
2018 Ford Bronco – How it will look?
So far most renders point out at a design inspired by the first generation Bronco. This features round headlights and a really Wrangler-like feel. However, most people also forget that the last Bronco was actually identical to the Ranger. This may very well be the case with this new model as well, especially now when Jeep is also releasing a pickup Wrangler. Things may change until release and it remains to be seen how the finalized vehicle will actually look. No matter what the case will be though, we are sure Ford is going to hit home run with it.
Under the skin of New Bronco
At this point it has been confirmed that the 2018 Ford Bronco is going to use the new Ranger-platform. Ford said that this will be quite light thanks to the information they have from developing the F-150. An all aluminum body on a high strength steel chassis is not impossible. Also, they said that the Bronco will be overbuilt because it will have the same components as the truck which will need to tow and carry a lot more than it. The front end will benefit from an independent suspension while at the back a solid axle will be used.
The car is expected to hit the market with a 4 or 5 cylinder turbocharged diesel. Ford has both a 2.2 liter and a 3.2 liter engine. The latter is the 5 cylinder which is also currently used on the Transit, so it would make sense to use it again in the Bronco. A V6, most likely their 2.7 liter twin-turbo EcoBoost, is a real possibility as well. A six speed manual will likely be standard while an automatic should be an option. Unlike most other crossovers, the Bronco will more than likely get all wheel drive as standard.

Skip to comments.Prehistoric rock art maps cosmological belief
Posted on 06/23/2013 4:52:39 AM PDT by SunkenCiv
It is likely some of the most widespread and oldest art in the United States. Pieces of rock art dot the Appalachian Mountains, and research by University of Tennessee, Knoxville, anthropology professor Jan Simek finds each engraving or drawing is strategically placed to reveal a cosmological puzzle.
Recently, the discoveries of prehistoric rock art have become more common. With these discoveries comes a single giant one -- all these drawing and engravings map the prehistoric peoples' cosmological world.
The research led by Simek, president emeritus of the UT system and a distinguished professor of science, is published in this month's edition of the journal Antiquity. The paper is co-authored by Nick Herrmann of Mississippi State University, Alan Cressler of the U.S. Geological Survey and Sarah Sherwood of The University of the South.

I have never been convinced that these were done at a particular date. Because I carved a rock years back along a historic route and left the date 1788.
So they basically divided the universe into 3 sections: heaven, earth, and hell, although not quite in the sense we are familiar with. Closer to the Greek sense.
You probably just blew the bottom out of somebody's research paper with that admission.

As the night for Trick-or-Treating approaches, it's time to start thinking about keeping your children safe. Times are very different then they were when I was a kid. I do remember an adult always going Trick-or-Treating with me, but the world didn't seem so scary back then. Now that I'm a parent, the world seems so big and scary, and I constantly worry about the safety of my children.
So, today, I want to focus on tips for keeping your children safe this Halloween. I know it's all about the candy, and that's great, but let's talk about ways to keep your children safe:
- Avoid dark costumes – Make sure your child can be seen. It's getting dark outside earlier and earlier, and if you are planning on Trick-or-Treating, you want to make sure your child can be seen by cars and passersby. If your child does have a dark costume, strategically place strips of reflective tape where it will catch the light of the cars driving by. Forestry Suppliers offers lots of neat stuff to help keep you safe, and you can get a great deal with their promo codes.
- Avoid masks – Now, I know. Batman has to wear a mask. I have 5 boys and a husband. I understand these things. Sometimes, there just has to be a mask. But, when you're wearing a mask, it instantly becomes much more difficult to see. Your peripheral vision is gone. It's hard to look in any direction. Suddenly, you find yourself tripping over every crack in the sidewalk. So, while masks may look cool, consider a costume that doesn't need a mask for your trick or treating adventure.
- Carry flashlights – Many times, neighborhoods will do their Trick-or-Treating during the day while the sun is still out, but sometimes, people prefer to do their Trick-or-Treating at night. If that is the case in your neighborhood, make sure everyone has their own flashlight to carry, especially if there aren't a lot of streetlights in your area. There are lots of places you can get flashlights, but check out these promo codes from Sportsmans Warehouse and start there.
- Stick together – If you are taking your child Trick-or-Treating, hold their hand or stay right with them. If they are a little older and think that's "not cool," hang back a little bit, so that it doesn't look like you are with them, but you can get to them quickly if you need to.
- Discuss safety rules before you go – Before you walk out the door to go Trick-or-Treating, set rules and discuss them with your child so they understand what is expected of them. Yes, you want it to be fun, but they need to know how to stay safe.
- Have fun – some of my favorite memories stem from Trick-or-Treating with my Daddy. He's been gone quite a few years now, but those memories are still there. Make your time with your children something they'll never want to forget and have a great time doing it.
Happy Halloween, friends! Stay safe and have lots of fun this Halloween!

Hype continues to increase for fans of the DC TV multiverse (commonly called the Arrowverse). Earlier today, the CW revealed that the Dominators (collectively, the Dominion) will serve as the villains in the massive four-show crossover.
This crossover consists of Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Supergirl, and will air in December. Exec producer Marc Guggenheim released the following statement:
"This year, for our mega 'Arrowverse' crossover, we're taking inspiration from a DC crossover from the late 1980s known as 'Invasion!,' which featured an alien race called the Dominators, who'd previously vexed the Legion of Super-Heroes. We're using cutting-edge prosthetics and computer effects to achieve a feature film-quality look which is faithful to Invasion! artist Todd McFarlane's interpretation of the characters."
The Dominion first debuted in a 1967 issue of Adventure Comics, indeed in conflict with the 30th century Legion of Super-Heroes. Characterized by 1940s-era Yellow Peril tropes, the Dominion regularly attempt to subjugate and experiment on metahumans.
Making this race of supervillains palatable for a modern audience presents an important challenge for the DC TV universe. Especially so, given Guggenheim's comment about remaining visually faithful to the Todd MacFarlane artwork, shown above.
Specifically, I don't know how they can depict this comics-accurately and not look racist. Bald heads, slanted, narrow eyes, long, claw-like fingernails, and dressed in robes: an alien caricature of Asian caricature villains.
Considering a general lack of Asian representation in live action DC properties at this time, I worry about this. Otherwise, DC has tried to outdo competitors in the diversity arena; this should not be where it falls grossly short. Asian groups rarely see decent representation in superhero properties in general, but this could be worse than anything we've seen so far.
We'll see come December. But in the meantime, we must wonder: what are the folks over at the CW thinking, going for this?

If you think Facebook is addictive, try looking into your own lineage.
With the evolution of online genealogy tools, the thrill of discovering the past now appeals to more than casual hobbyists and professional researchers. Genealogy tourism has become one of the busiest traffic segments on the Web, as dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers become private investigators looking for unlikely connections, unusual stories and answers to questions of their origins.
I knew my grandfather was born in Kupiskis, in northern Lithuania. I knew, too, that his parents had emigrated to South Africa before the First World War. For years, my great-grandfather paid the boat passage to South Africa for various family members, and every year new relatives arrived, in turn saving money to fund other journeys. One day, all the letters stopped.
Discovering my own roots, as they were deep into South Africa and uprooted a generation later to Canada, was important to me - to understanding where I came from and, perhaps, where I'm going, too. I wanted to visit my grandfather's hometown, the place that haunted him all his life.
But before visiting the former shtetl in the small Baltic country, I needed some more information. With the help of Google, I found a wealth of knowledge gathered by an amateur genealogist in Miami. Kupiskis, like all the former shtetls in Europe, has a tragic history. Before the Second World War, 41 per cent of its population were Jews. Those who didn't escape were rounded up and marched to nearby killing sites to be murdered by local Nazi collaborators. More than 3,000 men, women and children were massacred, including members of my own family.
For my grandfather, there was nothing to return to. While many people travel to the countries of their heritage expecting to discover and meet long-lost relatives, I knew from the start that there was no chance of greeting a forgotten branch of my family tree. Uncles and cousins, some just teenagers, had ended up at the bottom of those mass graves. Still, I had to go.
On arrival in the lovely, off-the-radar Lithuanian capital of Vilnius, I Skyped a distant relative from New York named Michael Pertain. He had contacted me on hearing of my plans to visit the country: In the world of genealogy, word gets around fast. Having researched our family tree for more than a dozen years, Michael is eager to learn and share. He tells me that he uses a program called GenWise, which lets him access his database on his PDA. With an incredible 3,000 names collected like leaves on our family tree, he literally holds the history of my lineage in his pocket.
It's a three-hour drive into the countryside, rich with the colours of fall. As I pilot a beat-up rental van, I can't believe that I had never thought of visiting the country before. The countryside around Kupiskis is gorgeous, the people warm, the tourists scarce.
In Kupiskis, I find the names of Jewish families wiped out in the war engraved on a memorial on a plaque on the old synagogue, which is now the town's library. As I run my hand over the names, stopping at several with the surname Ezroch, the emotion is overwhelming. But how were these Esrocks - the name later evolved - actually related to me? I Skype Michael in New York, who quickly references his reports and database, and tells me that these names belong to my great-grand-uncle and his family. It feels like finding and losing family members all at once.
Kupiskis is half asleep, the streets deserted. The only hotel is under repair, so I spend the night in the next town up. Red and gold leaves cover the roads, and some locals still get around in a horse and buggy. There are just a few clues that the town once had a rich Jewish history, like a street named Sinagogo, still lined with century-old wooden houses. It is cold and damp, and I wonder how my great-grandparents managed to adjust to the hot, dry veldt when they immigrated to South Africa before the First World War. I wonder what might have been if they didn't. With the help of an expert local guide named Regina Kopelevich, who specializes in genealogical tours, I am led to several mass graves, some of them with memorials, some of them with vandalized plaques.
Regina leads me to the ancient, wooden house of a 91-year-old local woman named Veronica. Floating in and out of lucidity, she recalls babysitting Jewish children, and sings me a few Yiddish lullabies. Then she tells me how her house overlooked the Freethinkers Cemetery, the site of one of the worst massacres, and she witnessed those same children stripped, lined up and murdered. "I still see their faces," she says, "I cried and cried." The room is freezing, as if all the joy in the world has been sucked out of it. Tears swell up as Veronica continues to tell me about life in the town, where Jews and Gentiles had co-existed peacefully since the 16th century. A few months later, Regina e-mails to tell me that Veronica has died. I wonder if anyone in the town still cares to remember what happened.
Back in Vilnius, I spend hours in a modern coffee shop with free wireless, researching life in Kupiskis, reading old reports and testimonials of survivors. I call my grandmother in Johannesburg and ask questions, feeling somewhat disappointed in myself that I have never asked her these questions before. In turn, she is fascinated by what Lithuania looks like today, by what has become of Kupiskis. Although my own roots have been dug up in the country, I'm drawn toward its history, the warmth of its locals, the climate - as if I fit right in.

About Me
My name is Kara Lenae and I live in the East Valley. I have been modeling for over 10 years, mostly bikini and lingerie and would now like to break into the bridal scene. I have a great sense of humor and a wardrobe to boot -not the wedding dress of course! I am not working at this time so my schedule is very flexible. Please feel free to reach out through MM or Facebook if you would like to work together.
I was a former player in the Lingerie Bowl for the 2007-2009 season on the Phoenix Scorch (half-time pay-per-view game during the SuperBowl) and was voted captain of the team.
I have appeared on magazine covers as well as inside many publications which are listed below. I have been featured in many different calendars and my "claim to fame" was staring along side Gene Simmons in his A&E hit series Gene Simmons Family Jewels.
Any inquiries that involve nude/adult work will be ignored.
I am very down to earth and easy to get along with. You will find that even though I live in the "Snottsdale" area, I still have my Texas manners. No Diva attitude here!
I am also looking for those 'cutting edge' projects that incorporate both my creativity as well as yours! I am a graduate of Bauder Fashion College in Arlington, Texas and hold a degree in Fashion Design.
Although a GOOD make-up artist and hairstylist is nice, I am very capable of doing my own hair and make-up at photo shoots and events. I have done my hair and make-up for 90% of my shoots.

Derbyshire Schools Badminton Finals
On Thursday 2nd February four students, Robyn S, Lauren S, Eden H and Emma R competed in the Derbyshire Schools KS3 Girls Badminton Final. They qualified for this final after previously winning the North East and Derbyshire Dales tournament in November 2016.
The team successfully beat 3 schools to win their league and went on to the semi-final against Lady Manners. The girls were not overwhelmed by this and maintained their excellent form winning 4 out of their 5 matches and progressed on to the final. Here, they came up against Ockbrook School. There was a lot of pressure on the girls - if they won this round they would become Derbyshire Schools Champions and qualify for the regional finals.
It was an exciting and tense match with both schools going into the final game having won 2 games each. It all went down to the final game. The girls battled so hard and never gave up just losing the last game 18-21 to become Derbyshire Schools KS3 Girls Badminton Silver medalists. I was very proud of them and the grit and determination they showed throughout.
Well done girls what a great achievement! Mrs Clarke

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
There was an end of term entertainment involving staff and sixth form with a lively production of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. Tom Stoppard's play explores the back story of two characters from Shakespeare's Hamlet who spend time chatting, throwing coins and worrying about life whilst they wait to be involved in the action. The leads were taken by Mr Lewis and Mr Andrews with Olivia Ballington in the crucial role of Hamlet (dialogue supplied by Shakespeare!).
The cast was rounded out by ITT students Mr Chatfield and Miss White whilst Post-16 Leader of Student Development Mr Wright stepped in for Mr Hughes who was on paternity leave. The sixth form cast which also included Georgia Jennings, Katie Andrews, Connor Green, Dan Holden, Charlotte Collins, Chloe Eastell, Liam Dunn, Steff Oliver-Smith had tremendous fun being players and pirates! Musical accompaniment was supplied by the talents of Andy Shelton whilst Mrs Johnson directed.
New York November 2016
On the 19th November 2016, 17 very excited students and 3 equally excited staff embarked on an once-in-a-lifetime trip to New York City. For 5 days we fully immersed ourselves in the sights, sounds, food and culture of New York City. We visited most of the main tourist attractions - the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island as well as attending a range of bespoke educational visits which included a tour of the United Nations and the Tenement Museum.
The trip was aimed at those students studying A-level Sociology, Psychology, History, Media and Film in the hope they would be able to use their experiences in their classroom studies; the experience however went beyond these academic boundaries and provided those that went with memories that will last a life time. We walked for miles, we laughed and we cried, we got lost, we learned, we experienced and we came home exhausted an absolutely fantastic time was had by all. The students were an absolute credit to themselves and the school. Roll on New York 2017.
Space Rocks at Eckington School

How Big is Your Rock?
If Frank Speener is planning on proposing any time soon, he's going to put every man on earth, or perhaps in the universe, to shame.
The 53-year-old Illinois graphic designer filed a formal declaration of legal claim with the United Nations for the largest diamond in the known universe a.k.a. BPM 37093. The crystallized white dwarf star is located a convenient 50 light years from earth in the constellation just a hop skip and a jump from the Southern Cross.
"It's no joke," Speener told Pravda News. "There is nothing in the law that prohibits private ownership of any celestial body. It's just something that's not done everyday. I just wanted to be the first to do it."
The star's chemical make up is essentially that of a 10 billion trillion trillion (yes, that's TWO trillions) carat diamond. If you're kicking yourself for letting Speener beat you to the celestial punch, don't fret. You still have hope if you want to give your future spouse a sliver of the universe. For $50 you can name a star after your loved one with the International Star Registry, or you can join the more than 3 million people who have staked their claim on lunar property on LunarEmbassy.com.

Sooo I got a camera Christmas before last... it got stolen. The pictures of the cats were taken with it... It was a pretty inexpensive camera.. thought the pictures came out well. I have a new HP Photosmart Camera. Nothing to spiffy. The flower picture was taken with it. I like it.
Does anyone else have a photosmart camera that can tell me how to adjust it to get better pictures, or if anyone knows anything about photography/cameras/digital cameras comment how i can make these better.

Beijing fish beatdown
Did some hiking out in the Beijing Haidian suburbs over the weekend, and got some 农家 country-style food afterwards. Like many such restaurants in Beijing, this one had a shallow pool of water with a dozen or so rainbow trout swimming around. The entertainment as we sat outside and ate our lunch was to watch as groups of Chinese came by and ordered fresh trout, after which the chef would beat each fish with a wooden stick.
Here's a video:

i'm no goddess
I don't know what it is, but after watching the first episode of this anime I just grew onto it. I've found myself constantly talking about The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, so before I get told to "Shut Up!" I just decided to yield it all here in a blog.
However, I've watched the entire first season, started the second, and now I'm rerunning through the first season again in a different order thanks to Arcanine [PC Staff Admin]. I don't know, but I'm obsessed with the anime...
As some of you may or may not have known, exams for me came to an end just yesterday. So, with that being said the results for my final class grade came in today and I couldn't be more satisfied. Now, I want you to know that with education I take it very seriously and I try not to slack, so use this as an explanation to why I have such grades now.
Well, it so happened Aero. came to my mind, and I actually liked it. It was something new, and it also stuck to my speed-like theme. Just for good time's sake, my previous
It wasn't even harsh rain like that in a Hurricane, but just continuous.
Hey dont worry about...
ok nice blog!! il...

i have a customer who has asked if i can post her some cupcakes! iv never done it before....what do you think?! is it possible? any tips?!
i cant see how it would work tbh! x
You may want to edit the title and add in 'mailing', that might get you some more views.
I've never mailed any cakes or cupcakes, so I don't have any advice on that sorry.
i've been wanting to know the same thing. i did some research on it a couple months ago where i looked up online bakeries who shipped their products and what i found with cupcakes is that you will need a special container to ship them in.
some options were a small jar, where the cupcake is placed in side. i'm pretty sure that with this method the frosting will get smooshed a little
the other option i noticed, which i think is much better, is freezing the cupcakes and shipping them with dry ice via next day or overnight delivery. then when the person gets them they can just thaw and enjoy

CoD Black Ops: Escalation DLC hits PS3 on June 10TH
Saturday, June 04 2011 @ 02:13 PM BST
Contributed by: VRANDAS
Views: 1,993
Playstation 3 owners will finally be able to download the 2nd CoD: Black Ops Map Pack from PSN next week.
Map pack Escalation features five big chunks of content - four multiplayer maps and one star-studded Zombies experience unlike any other. For fans of competitive combat, your new battlegrounds await:
* HOTEL takes the sunny splendor of a luxirous Cuban casino resort and turns it into a bullet-riddled war zone. Details like the blown casino safe and poolside bar offer some unusual cover for run-and-gunners, but thanks to the high vantage points at opposite ends, it's also a great map for snipers.
* Why not visit the ZOO? The big cats and deadly reptiles left this abandoned Russian animal park long ago, but the overgrown, dilapidated facility still plays host to the world's most dangerous game. Hide below in the bear lair or snipe from above on the monorail track - you've got the run of the place.
* If you're looking for a slice of classic Americana, check out the small-town motel and diner near the ambushed CONVOY. The freeway overpass has collapsed, leaving a missile stranded above and rubble littered below - not to mention a pre-fab house, apparently in transit by truck when the attack hit, now toppled on its side in ruins. Talk about trailer trash.
* STOCKPILE looks like an ordinary town in remote Russia...until you find the warhead hidden in the building in the center of town. Use switches to slide the huge steel doors up and down - good for restricting access during objective-based games.
* Last but not least, CALL OF THE DEAD goes meta on zombie lore itself with a unique setup: Cinema's zombie godfather George A. Romero is making his latest undead epic - starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, Robert Englund, Michael Rooker, and Danny Trejo - only to have a real zombie apocalypse break out, infecting the director himself and causing him to stalk you throughout the level. All the stars performed their roles with full motion capture and voice-over, so when you and three friends take on wave after wave of the zombie horde, you'll do so as some of Hollywood's most famous monster mashers. Proof positive that there's a zombie killer in all of us.
Activision has announced that the PS3 DLC will arrive on PSN on Friday, June 10.

Palm Trees -Pretzel Rods Vs. Gumpaste?
Decorating By Kel1222 Updated 21 May 2009 , 4:23pm by rvercher23
I am making my first set of palm trees. Would you suggest the traditional pretzel rod or does gumpaste work better? Would I just insert a lollypop stick into the trunk? I am thinking that way would stay better insterted into the cake rather than the pretzel. Any suggestions/experiences are appreciated!
I have made two cakes with palm trees on them, I used fondant, they just flow better with the cake. Youcan look in my pics and see. I used a toothpick to sitck them into the cake. Good Luck!
I was going to do palm trees last week, was contemplating the same thing. I didn't end up making them but here is my suggestion.
Have you ever made modeling chocolate. Its really easy if you haven't.
I would wrap the pretzel rods, in the modeling chocolate, for that matter you could probably do the same thing with gumpaste or fondant. than you could give the trunk the color and texture that you want. Ok thats all.
I used a toothpick to sitck them into the cake. Good Luck!
Do toothpicks really support the weight of the palms?
I used a pretzel rod and it was nice and sturdy. I have it posted if you'd like to see it.
I'd love to see how yours turned out. Please pm me when you have a photo of it.

I've also used a pretzel rod for palm trees then used royal icing to attach the fondant leaves. Did not have any problems with it being sturdy. It's the curious george pic in my photos.
I used a toothpick to sitck them into the cake. Good Luck!
Do toothpicks really support the weight of the palms?
Yes, in my cakes the baby shower and the bridal shower cakes the toothpicks held up fine, some were aginst the cake and some were standing on their own, lollipop sticks or wooden skewers would be fine too.

I had a great time, and I hope everyone came away excited to use an 8+ year old technology they probably never heard of ;-). As promised, here are the slides, and the sample code from last night:
Here are a few notes on the sample code:
Feel free to email me if you have any questions, and hopefully I'll have an opportunity to speak with all of you again.

Today is the seventh anniversary of my Father's passing. I have waited seven years for the full impact of his death to hit me. Assuming it would wash over me like a tidal wave, I braced myself for the sudden flood of grief and sadness.
It hasn't come.
Instead, the initial shock and anger I felt towards the cancer that stole him has been replaced with admiration, wonder, and regret.
Admiration at the courage it must have taken to uproot his young family and move across the world. Wonder at how a humble young Austrian man of modest means could integrate – without assimilating – into Western culture. And regret that I can't ask him everyday.
My own son is seven years old, born just six months before my Father's death. I cannot escape the dichotomy of mourning one life withered while rejoicing the blossoming of another. The two occasions are perpetually united; 2003, the year I became a Father and lost my own.
Having survived World War II, my parents were not fleeing any iminent danger in Austria, but rather they had the wisdom to see that there was no light at the end of the tunnel. Whenever I asked my Father about why he chose to leave Austria and come Canada, he would dismiss the question as ridiculous. Although I knew the text book record of World War II, I could not comprehend the reality of a raveged Europe and fractured culture. I probably still cant.
To my Dad the answer was obvious:
It was all he could do for his family.
Divided by ocean, generation, and culture, the course of our lives was and is so very different. I am a first generation Canadian, spoiled by the richness this country offers. Like many children of immigrants I carry a self imposed guilt of unearned affluence. In my teens I clashed with my parents because I felt it unfair that I should feel indebted for being born in Canada.
No-one, not my parents or siblings ever thrust this guilt upon me. Rather, It was my reaction to what I interpreted as my parents sacrifice. Since having children of my own, I now understand that parents don't succumb to sacrifice, they are driven to provide.
Though so different, I am everyday amazed at how similar my Father and I are. And how much more like him I want to be.
It was not until his final days when I rephrased my quesion to "Was it worth it to come to Canada?" that he gave me an answer.
He simply tallied the outcomes. My parents lived comfortably. His children we all healthy, educated, in love, and prosperous. It was not easy, and he never expected it to be.
I understand now that what matters to me is not overcoming the burdern of one's circumstance, but the resolve to fulfill one's aspiration.
My Father's aspiration was to protect his family and produce healthy, educated, happy children.
Thanks to him, I aspire to do the same.
Pictured above; braided challah like my Father taught me to make. This one was made by my son and I.
Where there's Smoke, there's Flavour – DIY Trash-can Smoker
Tinkering, cooking, and eating are three of my favourite downtime activities. So it will come as no surprise that I often go to great lengths to combine all three.
My latest obsession is perfect slow-cooked ribs. Crafted with smoke, fire, and care.
I have been to many dedicated BBQ restaurants, and always thought there must be some secret voodoo that produces the delicate mouthwatering flavour of real Barbeque.
Cooking with fire is perhaps the oldest cooking method, and for many, the most mysterious. Most are willing to pay a little more to dine out, never considering that they could do it themselves – It doesn't have to be this way!
Like most things, the truth of real Barbeque is of course quite simple.
In my estimation the secret to great ribs is heat, smoke, and time.
With a little knowledge, practice, willingness to fail, and the right tools, anyone can produce ribs with tender fall-off-the-bone flavour, right in their own backyard.
In my limited experience I have learned that every dish requires an appropriate measure of three key elements:
- The best ingredients you can get
- Thoughtful preparation
- Deliberate technique, equipment, and execution
When it comes to ribs, all three elements are vital. Each step contributes nothing but the building blocks of flavour that will penetrate literally to the bone.
For my purposes, I wanted a simple charcoal burning smoker that would allow for moderate cooking times (up to 6 hours) with little attending. There are plenty of commercially available smokers out there. Some cheap, some over the top expensive. You could wait for a sale and buy one, but what fun would that be?
With just a bit of searching I was able to find all the bits you see above for about $60.
What I used:
- Galvanized Trash-can
- Stainless Steel colander (to hold hardwood charcoal)
- 6 x 2″ Stainless Steel bolts and nuts (3 each to support 2 shelves inside)
- An empty can to hold hickory/mesquite wood-chips or pellets
- A sheet of thin steel and magnets for a door
- 2 x 14-16″ wire racks or perforated pizza pans
I even added at BBQ thermometer on the lid (I like to keep the heat below 240 or so).
As you can see I cut a hole in one side of the trash-can to control air ventilation and to be able to add charcoal as necessary (I have not needed to yet).
The colander is loaded with charcoal and placed at the bottom of the can. Allow the the coals to heat to ash, then place the can of wood-chips/pellets right onto the coals. Cover the door and add the ribs, put the lid on the can and walk away.
Even with the door in place, there is not enough of seal on my smoker to snuff the fire – keep an eye on the temperature and open the door if your fire needs air.
As for a rib recipe, there are a million, and I urge you to make it a million and one.
For the record, here's mine:
- 4 x neatly trimmed pork side or back ribs, membrane removed
- Dusted liberally with dried mustard powder, garlic powder, pepper, paprika, and cayenne powder
- Wrap tightly and refrigerate overnight
- When the smoker is ready, add the ribs and spray lightly with a 50/50 mixture of apple juice and vinegar (I use a squirt bottle). Repeat every 45 minutes or so for about 4.5 – 5 hours
After a few hours you should have something like this:
If you like, during the last 15 minutes or so you can add your favourite sauce and heat through.
If you made it this far, why not give it a try yourself? It's simple, and the results are astonishing.
Now, what else can I fit in there?
Bon Appétit!

To diagnose your condition, your doctor may make an evaluation based on your signs and symptoms, an examination, and tests. Your doctor may refer you to a sleep specialist in a sleep center for further evaluation.
You'll have a physical examination, and your doctor will examine the back of your throat, mouth and nose for extra tissue or abnormalities. Your doctor may measure your neck and waist circumference and check your blood pressure.
A sleep specialist may conduct additional evaluations to diagnose your condition, determine the severity of your condition and plan your treatment. The evaluation may involve overnight monitoring of your breathing and other body functions as you sleep. Tests to detect obstructive sleep apnea include:
Polysomnography. During this sleep study, you're hooked up to equipment that monitors your heart, lung and brain activity, breathing patterns, arm and leg movements, and blood oxygen levels while you sleep. You may have a full-night study, in which you're monitored all night, or a split-night sleep study.
In a split-night sleep study, you'll be monitored during the first half of the night. If you're diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea, staff may wake you and give you continuous positive airway pressure for the second half of the night.
This test can help your doctor diagnose obstructive sleep apnea and adjust positive airway pressure therapy, if appropriate. This sleep study can also help rule out other sleep disorders, such as periodic limb movements of sleep or narcolepsy, which also can cause excessive daytime sleepiness, but require different treatment.
Your doctor also may refer you to an ear, nose and throat doctor to rule out any anatomic blockage in your nose or throat.

This morning, we were doing school. It is a light week since Thanksgiving is a few days away. We are reading LOTS of Thanksgiving books and doing some Thanksgiving crafts. I decided to go pull out my Thanksgiving folder from my teaching days in NC. And when I did, I saw this picture:
Ohh, the flood of memories that came over me when I saw this picture. Zhiquan was a student that got transferred into my Transition First class one year. If we are going to be honest, Zhiquan ended up in my classroom because he had behavioral issues. When his kindergarten classroom had too many students in it, the principal told his teacher to put a few in my room. At first, I was VERY frustrated because this teacher saw it as an opportunity to get rid of some students who had behavioral issues. But little did I know that the Lord was going to use Zhiquan to grow me into more of who He desires me to be.
Within the first couple of weeks as I began to learn more about who Zhiquan was, he began to have a special place in my heart. Zhiquan at his young age, had been in and out of foster homes. He had seen A LOT in his few years of life. My heart broke as I learned more and more of his story. But the Lord gave me the ability to see Zhiquan as He does...a broken child who needed to see the love of Jesus.
When he first got into my classroom, there was LOTS of testing of boundaries. I think there was so much testing because he had lived in so many places with so many different rules. Some days it was absolutely frustrating, but I think he was seeing if I was worth trusting. In the end, consistency won! A couple of months in, Zhiquan couldn't do enough for me. He grew into being responsible. He desired to do well for me. He began to excel in his school work. Now, don't get me wrong...it wasn't all peachy keen...but when he was off, I knew something was going on at home.
Today, as I write this blog, I wonder what has happened to Zhiquan. I have tried looking on Facebook for him, but haven't been successful. My heart wonders if he ever found his forever family. I have prayed often that he has...I have prayed that he got a mom and dad who were his BIGGEST fans and could encourage him to reach his potential.
As I reflect, I thank the Lord for allowing Zhiquan to be a part of my classroom...a part of my life. I thank Him for using Zhiquan to grow me in compassion for those who are broken. Reminding me that often times those who are acting out are the ones who have the deepest wounds. I thank the Lord for using Zhiquan to grow me in seeing that wherever He places me is an opportunity to love like Jesus. I thank Him for using Zhiquan to plant the seed of one day adopting children who are in the foster system and giving them a forever home.
I pray that Zhiquan saw Jesus when he was in my classroom. I pray during our year together, he knew that he was loved not only by me, but by God.
Today, I am saying a special prayer for Zhiquan. I am praising the Lord for this sweet child and giving Him thanks for all the good that came out of an at first frustrating situation. And I am praying that Zhiquan got a glimpse of His love for him and realized that there is One who has an ending/unconditional love for him.
"Praise the LORD. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."
Psalm 106:1

This is my first smoke on my Modified Masterbuilt XL, I added the wheels on the bottom, it makes it sooo easy to move
This is my first smoke on my Modified Masterbuilt XL, I added the wheels on the bottom, it makes it sooo easy to move
Great Idea!
No Creosote! A-Maze-N Smokers
I decided to sell the Brinkmen offset in a yardsale, to much work! I wanted to smoke inside my pool area so I got the Masterbuilt. I though that it would finish off the outdoor kitchen. It was a real pain going out to the back yard to tend to the fire.
Now I can float in the pool and watch things
I did a few mods to it, I put a 8" cast pan in for wood, and ran a nice bead of 100% silicone (heat rated) on the door opening to seal the door. It worked great! I think I'll add a few bricks inside to temper the heat gain/loss. that should do it!
The Butts turned out great!
Looks great, I did the same mods, except for sealing the door. The dolly does make all the difference in moving in around, and the cast iron skillet is much better than the stock chip tray. I used a 10" skillet and drilled holes to add long bolts so I can adjust the height of the pan.
Can AMNPS be used in this smoker? Just asking........
That's a great looking setup you have there! But what did you smoke?
I did 2 Butts after seasoning the smoker a few days ago, They turned out great! I did a simple rub, let them sit over night. I used Pecan and Hickory chunks for smoke. Wrapped at 160 degrees and finished up at 195. Let them sit for about and hour in my warming drawer. I was surprised how much juice was in the foil after opening. They did however have a great bark on them prior to wrapping in foil though. I didn't take any pics,,,, I was ready to eat em up by then!
The door seal worked out great! All I did was bought some 100% silicone and laid a nice even 3/8 inch bead all along the door frame. when the door closes, it seals up perfect. I did get a bit of grease build up on the door that leaked out when opening the door. The small throw rug did a nice job of catching any drips.
One note that will help anyone that uses the 8" cast pan for wood is that this pan is seriously HOT when you need to refill it. I used heavy leather gloves and a old piece of tile on top of the unit to set it on when refilling. I also used foil to seal it and poked a few holes in it to let the smoke out. Not a singe flare up.
I'm not sure, I've never seen one or used one to be honest. I like the design,,, If you need to custom build one,,, Here's the place for all your perforated steel products that you would ever need! I used them for the stainless steal behind my Gas Grill **See pic**.
Yep. I use my amazens—both the pellets & the dust— in my XL all the time with sausage smokes.
Dont want to hijack this thread but Kevin can you please tell me how low can you go on temperature? Like for kielbasa can I go as low as 120F and so on up to 165F? I am thinking about getting XL for summer use with amnps in it.
Great set up!
I've never smoked sausage with the lower temps, I have thrown a few links in during other smokes and was happy with what I got. My primary goal is to do big a$$ chunks of meat. I'm all about Pork, Ribs and Brisket. This XL will fit the bill for me.
I do love the Western NY Chiavetta's Chicken BBQ that I grew up with but the grease overwhelms my grill and smoke hood on my gas grill. I think I'll a very light smoke on the chicken leg 1/4'rs in the XL and finish on the grill to crisp them up. A healthy dose of Chiavetta's Marinade mopped will do the trick!
My next goal is to fine tune the smoke that I get from the cast pan, it seemed a bit heavy as it was first taking off, the chunks turned into coal after the smoke stopped but IMO was too heavy when it first started to smoke.
