I really love making my own BBQ sauce. There is nothing comparable to the sweet scent of all those spices simmering away in a rich, thick liquid on the stove. While researching the rules for the new Cottage Food Law in Colorado (a law just passed to legalize home-based food sales), I was so disappointed to see that BBQ sauce was on the list of foods not allowed for resale. I don't understand the reasoning behind that rule, and I don't want to accept it, but I suppose I have to. Once I get around to selling some of my own homemade goods, that is.
This is my third recipe for BBQ sauce, not because the others weren't fantastic, because they were, but because I like variety, and experimenting with different flavors is a lot of fun. My first recipe for Coca Cola Sweet and Spicy BBQ Sauce was a huge hit last summer when we had a few friends over for a BBQ dinner of pulled pork, ribs, corn on the cob with bacon butter, baked beans and ice cream cake.
When the sauce ran out, I made a new batch in February, this time with Bourbon and Beer, which was also amazing, in spite of my aversion to both of those on their own, and perfect for the cold snowy months. Racks of ribs, a few pounds of pulled pork, and slow-cooked crockpot chicken have been enjoyed with these sauces on snowy weekends.
After making strawberry orange creamsicles the other day, we had a lot of orange juice left, and so I decided to make this batch of BBQ sauce with orange juice and zest, cinnamon and maple syrup. And of course, with all the other wonderful flavors of tomato, onion, molasses, garlic, and many spices.
For the ribs we were going to have for dinner, I mixed up a dry rub to complement the flavors in the sauce. The colors of the spices were so beautiful and vibrant. Do you think you could name all these spices just by looking at them? I'm not sure I'd get them all right without tasting them, too, since some spices can look so similar.
As I mixed up the dry rub, I realized that I'd just used the last cup of brown sugar in the sauce, and had none left for the rub. But I remembered a little trick I'd heard somewhere that I'd never tried before, of making my own brown sugar by mixing white granulated sugar with a little molasses.
And it was just that simple. A cup of sugar in a bowl, with a tablespoon or so of molasses, combine with a fork, and I had brown sugar.
The ribs slow-cooked all afternoon in the oven on their bed of yellow onions, orange slices and whole garlic cloves, with a sweet, steamy bath of orange juice and apple cider vinegar to keep them moist. Brushed generously with the sauce and finished on the grill, they were melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness with the flavor of the oranges taking center stage.
We also ate fresh green beans sauteed with olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic, and twice-baked potatoes, the filling mashed with onions, bacon, creamy buttermilk and Parmesan cheese. I wanted to put sauce on everything.
I'm always asking Jamie to tell me what his favorite between such and such recipes are, a question he never likes to answer as he's sure that's a trick question and he's going to get in trouble for the "wrong" answer, whichever one he picks. But if I had to pick a favorite of my three sauce recipes, I think I'd have to pick the first one with the Coca Cola, even though I loved the unique flavors of each one. Now that we have fresh BBQ sauce on hand, I've got two dinners planned this week for using it, that I think the orange-scented sauce will be fantastic on - shredded chicken tacos with avocado, and burgers this weekend.
Making the sauce is the easy part. Smelling it simmer for hours while forcing yourself not to taste it every half hour while waiting for dinner is the hard part.
But so, so worth the wait.

Baby Back Ribs with Orange, Cinnamon and Maple BBQ Sauce
printable recipe
- 1 rack baby back ribs
- 5 cloves garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
- salt and pepper
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup dry rub (above)
- 1 sweet yellow onion, sliced into rings
- 1 orange, sliced
- 2 cups orange juice
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 - 1 1/2 cups BBQ sauce (above)
Preheat the oven to 200. Rub the rack of ribs on both sides with the garlic and season with salt and pepper. Season all over with the dry rub. In a large baking pan, lay the garlic, onion and orange slices in the bottom. Place the ribs in the pan, bone side down. Pour the orange juice and apple cider vinegar into the pan. Cover with foil.
Cook for 5-6 hours, until the meat easily pulls away from the bone and is very tender.
To finish, heat the grill to medium high. Brush the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce, then grill for 5-10 minutes on each side for a nice char.
Yields 2-4 servings.
Recipe from Curly Girl Kitchen
Twice Baked Potatoes with Buttermilk and Bacon
- 4 russet potatoes, scrubbed and dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup minced sweet yellow onion
- Salt and pepper
- 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
Preheat the oven to 400 and line a baking sheet with foil. Poke the potatoes a few times with a fork, rub all over with the oil and place on the baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, until tender.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350. Holding the potatoes with an oven mitt, slice the tops off each potato, reserving the tops. Carefully scoop out most of the potato, leaving enough around the edges and bottom so that the potato shells hold their shape.
Mash or whip the potatoes with the buttermilk, butter and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Stir in the onion and half the bacon, then season with salt and pepper. Mound the filling into the potato shells and sprinkle with the rest of the bacon and cheese. Brush the potato tops that you sliced off with a little olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, bacon and cheese, and bake those along with the potatoes for crispy potato skins.
Bake until warmed through, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the paprika.
Yields 4 servings.

Google Hopes to Conquer Gaming with Lively
"There is a longer term goal of opening up the API so the architecture of Lively could be used as an online games platform," Hanna told GamesIndustry.biz, adding that the software will be "pushing the different genres of known game types" through future updates.
Though he could "neither confirm nor deny" if Google has any internal game projects in the works, Hanna expressed his belief that gaming is being bogged down by corporate-mandated features meant to generate mass-market appeal.
"It's sucking the life out of what should be the most creative and innovative medium out there," he explained. "I hope that [Lively] inspires those same 'passionate start-ups' and kids in college to actually go and produce games where they don't have to worry about the visual bar or the accessibility, because those things are already pre-established."
Google is best at dealing with MASS information. When it comes to delicate things their tool of choice tends to be a blunt spoon. The problem is probably that they have so many divisions of the same company that the talented people get too spread out from one another -- I think the same thing happened over at Microsoft.

A man swooped in to save a South Jersey family after a mother allegedly tried to kill her teenage children.
Darnell Taylor is mourning the loss of his father, who died from cancer Wednesday morning. Yet while Taylor is now coping with the tragedy, he can take solace in the fact that he prevented another one from happening just a day before his father's death.
Police say 49-year-old Joann Smith was driving her van on West Front Street in Florence Township, N.J around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. With her 15, 14, and 13 year-old children inside the vehicle, Smith allegedly accelerated onto a boat ramp and into the Delaware River.
U.S. & World
Investigators say she was intentionally trying to kill her children.
Taylor says he was driving to dinner with his wife when he noticed the vehicle partially submerged in the water and the family trapped inside.
"I got out of the car and heard people screaming," Taylor said. "I took off my jacket, jumped in and swam out there."
Taylor swam towards the family while his wife called 911.
"I couldn't get the window open because the window in the van was not a pop out window," Taylor said. "So I kept telling the young lady to kick the window out and she kicked it out."
One by one, Taylor grabbed Smith, her daughter and two sons to safety. Taylor claims Smith didn't say anything during the rescue except for "Thank you."
One of the children suffered cuts on the leg while Smith was checked into a medical facility for a mental evaluation.
Police claim Smith intentionally drove the van into the water. She was arrested and charged with three counts of attempted murder and three counts of child endangerment.
Smith's bail was set at $600,000. Officials originally said that Smith would likely appear in Superior Court in Mount Holly Thursday afternoon. Thursday morning however they said her first appearance wouldn't occur until Monday morning at the earliest.
Detectives with the Florence Township Police Department along with officials from the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office are investigating the case.
Smith's three children are currently staying with relatives, shaken by their terrifying experience but still alive thanks to Taylor.
"He was a godsend," said Bob Lane, a Florence Township resident. "He saved them. That water is not warm and he jumped in."
While many people are calling him a hero, Taylor disagrees.
"I'm not a hero," he said. "I'm just a member of this community and anyone else would have done the same thing."

Jessica joined us a few weeks ago as a marketing and communications volunteer. She's a graduate of North Carolina A&T State University and majored in graphic communications. Her interests are in social media and marketing, and today she's here to talk to us about the importance of volunteering. Welcome, Jessica!
Simply get involved. Some people may consider volunteering a waste of time, but it can in fact boost your life in so many ways. Think about it. Through volunteering, you'll get a chance to not only help others, but also you can help yourself by increasing your social skills and learning about different jobs you may be interested in. There is power in volunteering.
No matter how old or young you are, it is never too late to volunteer. However, from personal experience, I highly suggest that young adults entering high school and/or college find ways to volunteer. In understanding the struggle of the job market today, it is very important that young adults take the initiative to get involved in their community, which will open opportunities in finding a job or internship. Many companies and even colleges look for students and employees who are involved in their communities through volunteering.
Studies have even shown the positive benefits of volunteering. Volunteering can:
- Boost your resume
- Increase your social skills
- Be a networking opportunity
- Lower rates of depression
- Help you learn new skills
- Give you an opportunity to help others!
Take advantage of the opportunity to volunteer in your community. Don't ever think of it as a waste of time. It will only enhance your future. Goodwill's Champions for Good volunteer program is a great place to start; or, check out Hands on Charlotte for a huge list of volunteer opportunities in our community.
Great reward comes to those who help others, so help yourself by helping others.
Thank you so much, Jessica! We are so glad you are an advocate for volunteering.
We want to know: Readers, do you volunteer?

Exit polls apparently won't be able to tell us if the banjo-strumming "Newby – Tough but Fair" ad attracted or alienated voters in the contest between Justice Paul Newby and Court of Appeals Judge Same Ervin IV, but if election results are the test, the ad worked.
Just ask Louisiana-based Innovative Advertising, the self-proclaimed preeminent Gulf South advertising firm which produced the ad and did the media buys for the NC Judicial Coalition and is now touting the ad on its website as "a jingle so funny and catchy that it has become a popular new ringtone in North Carolina."
The company has plenty of reasons for its swagger, given its payday from the ad.
The Judicial Coalition, formed to support Newby's re-election, kept pumping money into ad buys until the very end of the campaign, thanks to noteworthy last-minute contributions from the likes of SAS chairman Jim Goodnight, $25,000, and U.S. Sen. Richard Burr's PAC, Next Century Fund, $10,000. The state Republican Party also threw in $50,000 in the final days and the NC Chamber, another $25,000 to lift its total to $188,700.
And the pass-through PAC, Justice for All NC, continued funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars into the Judicial Coalition's coffers – up to $1.5 million at last count — thanks to ongoing contributions it received from the Republican State Leadership Committee, which totaled $1,165,000. Also making late contributions to Justice for All: Lorillard Tobacco $25,000; hotel management company, Summit Hospitality Group, $5000; Clinton, NC-based poultry and turkey producer Prestage Farms, $5000; and the trade group NC Health Care Facilities Association, $4000.
Technology, hospitality, tobacco, health care, insurance, education — is there any industry that did not put some dollars toward the re-election of Justice Newby?

The Twycross Zoo welcomed a baby Asian elephant on March 4! The healthy female calf will nurse 11 liters (~3 gallons) of milk a day from her mother Noorjahan until she is 12 months old.
Dr. Charlotte Macdonald, Head of Life Sciences, said: "The calf was born at approximately 2.30am and was up on its feet after a matter of minutes. The infant has bonded very well with mum, who is doing an exceptional job of taking care of her."
Sarah Chapman, Head of Veterinary Services, added: "The herd's behaviour was monitored by the vet and animal teams via CCTV, and it was good to see that all members of the herd were very excited by the new arrival and very interested in the infant. All the females continue to take a huge interest in the calf and are very protective of her. This is perfectly natural, with Aunties playing a very important 'babysitting' role in the natural herd structure."
The IUCN lists the Asian elephant as endangered. In the wild, they live in fragmented populations in various countries across southeast Asia. Their population has been dramatically reduced and the quality of habitat is declining.

Let those who are in favour with their stars
Of public honour and proud titles boast,
Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars
Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most.
Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread
But as the marigold at the sun's eye,
And in themselves their pride lies buried,
For at a frown they in their glory die.
The painful warrior famoused for fight,
After a thousand victories once foiled,
Is from the book of honour razed quite,
And all the rest forgot for which he toiled:
Then happy I, that love and am beloved,
Where I may not remove nor be removed.
Sonnet 25: Translation to modern English
Let those who have achieved success enjoy the glory of high office and aristocratic titles, while I, who have been barred by fortune from such triumph, take quiet delight in that which I most value. The favourites of great princes enjoy brief days of sunshine, as marigolds do for as long as the sun shines directly on them, their glory being confined to that moment, because it dies at a frown from the prince. The soldier, made famous for his military prowess, is stripped of his honour once he has been defeated, even after a thousand victories, and everything he strove for is forgotten. But I, who love and am loved, am fortunate in that I can't remove myself from that state or be removed from it by anyone else.

Petroleum Refinery Automates Case & Pail Palletizing
Flexicell, Inc. Posted 10/04/2010A petroleum refinery needed to increase production speeds to match demand for their products, but were restricted by the palletizing stage of production. Furthermore, employees were loading the products onto the pallets by hand, putting them at risk of injury due to heavy lifting and repetitive motions. The optimal solution would keep their employees safe while making their lines more efficient. Automation would provide these benefits.
The petroleum refinery had two different product types, cases of varying sizes and 20-liter plastic pails. With limited space and resources, it was important that the system could handle both lines simultaneously. An innovative approach would be required to compensate for the differences in their packaging.
The automation system would also have to account for the discrepancy in the case sizes. While only one case size ran at a time, the need for changeovers to a different size required that the system be capable of handling different case sizes on demand, in addition to the pails. This necessity for flexibility suggested the use of a robot with a sophisticated end of arm tooling design.
Seeking a solution, the company attended Pack Expo, where they saw Flexicell's booth displaying their automation systems. The petroleum refinery saw firsthand the expertise displayed by Flexicell on the tradeshow floor, and were impressed by the experience Flexicell already had with overcoming similar problems. The following shows how Flexicell met all of the requirements above and more.
The case and pails are brought to the robot cell by two Hytrol conveyors which are equipped with Hytrol's EZ Logic to provide buffering and zero back pressure. Once within the cell the products are collated onto a custom-built positioning conveyor. From there a Fanuc M410iB/160 Palletizing Robot palletizes them in pairs.
The robot is equipped with an end of arm tooling (EOAT) that has both vacuum grippers for the cases and mechanical jaws for the pails. The controller can switch the robot between the two methods depending on which product group is ready for palletization.
The EOAT uses patented servo-powered technology to adjust to case size. During a changeover, the operator selects the case size using the custom-built HMI, which directs the independent vacuum zones on the EOAT to move to match the size selected. The system is ready to go within seconds.
The robot arranges the products on the pallets until they are the correct height. Pallet loads are automatically moved out of the cell by heavy drag-chain conveyors. An empty pallet is then released from the pallet magazine via conveyor until it is within the robot's work envelope. The robot uses mechanical fingers on the EOAT to pick and place the pallet into the empty loading position.
The next phase is stretch-wrapping of the pallet load. The company's prior method for stretch-wrapping was to move the pallet via forklift to where it could be wrapped. When Flexicell personnel visited the company's facility, they saw an opportunity to improve the production line even further by integrating an automatic stretch wrapper into the palletizing system. This would reduce manual handling even further. By implementing this, the result was a palletizing process automated from start to finish.
Like all systems, safety fencing was installed around the robot cell. By using light curtains, dual safety check software, and safety door switches, the system immediately stops the robot if people enter.
By integrating the robot, conveyors, stretch-wrapping station, and safety guard, Flexicell has provided a safer, more efficient palletizing system. Flexicell's commitment to quality has ensured that it exceeded the company's initial expectations in performance and reliability.
The project manager at the refinery said: "Flexicell is the best [vendor] I have personally dealt with. [They] are good at customer service, and of course, great at what [they] specialize in...the designing of robot applications. I would recommend [them] to anyone."

Spin-Chair by Jesper Legaard Jensen
Jesper Legaard Jensen Shows The Spin Chair
Jesper Legaard Jensen, the author of the award winning design Chair:Spin by Jesper Legaard Jensen demonstrates, Remember playing with a spinning top as a child? Watching as it slows down, leaning to the side until it falls and eventually comes to a stop. The playful nature of it. That's where the inspiration for this chair comes from. The chair has a classic yet characteristic design. It is a chair with life and personality. It can spin playfully when no one sits in it. Structural details - such as rolled edges and internal ribs - adds stability and personality. And, most of all, it is very comfortable to relax in for one or two persons..

Several homes for sale on Wilson Point in Norwalk
Following the customary exchange rate in 1640, Daniel Patrick bought the original 150 acres of what is now Wilson Point in Norwalk from the Naramake Indians for 10 fathoms of wampum, three hatchets, hoes and knives, six glasses, 10 drills and needles, and 12 pipes. Ten fathoms of wampum, beads cut and polished from the shells of clams and whelks, was worth about $6 then, according to "A Point in Time," a history of Wilson Point by Nelson Hayes, updated by Doris S. Friend and Helen L. Benziger.
By 1685, Wilson Point was owned by John and Ruhama Belden. In 1749, their son, Morgan, built a house there. In 1781 their grandson, Isaac Belden, began to raise grain on what was then known as Belden's Neck.
Isaac's daughter, Harriet, married Lewis O. Wilson, a New York textile magnate, and the couple received Morgan's house and 75 acres of farmland. For $8,400 Wilson bought another 75 acres from Harriet's sister, Mary Esther. and her husband, Socrates Squires, and the rest of the point from Henry, Isaac's brother. Not surprisingly, Belden's Neck was renamed Wilson Point.
After a wood-frame house he had built burned to the ground, Wilson built a house of granite on a stone foundation in Gothic style sometime before 1867. In the winter of 1874, he had the Squires house, which spoiled his view to the south, towed across the ice by a team of oxen to a spot near the head of the Cove.
Failing fortunes caused Wilson to lose 150 acres to foreclosure, and the land ended up in the hands of Lunette Burchard, whose husband, Boardman, had earlier been one of Wilson's junior partners. Reed Haviland of Norwalk and two New York real estate developers, Col. Duncan Harris and Douglas Vought, formed the Wilson Point Land Co., and in 1920, it bought 154 acres from the Burchard estate.
Just 64 parcels were mapped out, and Wilson Point was reborn as a residential community. By the end of the 1920s, 80 percent of the land was sold, with an inland acre costing about $1,000 and one on the water priced at $5,000.
Former railroad land on the cove was added in 1937, and subdivision has led to a total of 80 families on the point.
There are a number of Wilson Point houses now for sale, ranging in price from almost $2 million to about $7 million, according to Pam Woods of William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty.

The library with vaulted ceiling also opens to the pool, and there's a cabana room as well as a guest apartment.

The church was erected in 1765 near the present day town of Union, the county seat. 1800 and became a separate district when Pinckney was dissolved in 1800.
The first settlers to this area were migrating Scotch-Irish families from Virginia and Pennsylvania.

Chinese ecommerce company Alibaba plans to raise $10 billion through an IPO on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq.
Right now, investment bankers are battling to win the business.
A source from that industry who has seen some of the pitchbooks floating around says that a few of the bankers are suggesting that Alibaba should go public at a valuation of $100 billion.
Just because bankers are suggesting such a high valuation doesn't mean Alibaba will go for it.
Last week, the WSJ reported Alibaba would IPO at a valuation of $70 billion or more.
Either way, Alibaba is going to be worth a lot more than this fall's other big IPO, Twitter.
Alibaba's high valuation is very good news for Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer. Yahoo has agreed to sell its stake in Alibaba when it IPOs. At a $100 billion, Yahoo will gross about $7 billion.
$7 billion buys a lot of Tumblr-sized startups. Which is good. Because how else is she going to attract hundreds of millions of new users on mobile?
