What's this?? It's the Dad Squad from The Adventure Zone: Dadlands, all together in a single platform fighter moveset! Enter Briquette Hoggins, Chip Hugginsbee, Guy Ferrari, and Coach Red Ruffinsore!
I wanted to include a law/chaos meter mechanic in this, so here's how this one works. You play as one dad at a time, and each of the four special moves will swap you to the corresponding dad. Landing hits as a chaos dad (Briquette or Chip) will raise your chaos but drop your law. Landing hits as a law dad (Guy or Red) will raise your law but drop your chaos. Most standard attacks are themed after one type of dad (grill, vacation, car, or sports), and landing hits themed to your current dad will give extra meter. You can spend meter by holding down the special buttons for powered up versions of those attacks. Spend chaos for stronger neutral or up specials, and spend law for stronger side or down specials.
Now for the moveset itself. The down special swaps you to Coach Red Ruffinsore, who let's out a piercing toot on his whistle for high damage but practically no range. Spend law meter to chain together several whistles with no cooldown.
The side special swaps you to Guy Ferrari, who will drive forward a good distance in his Hyundai Elantra. Spend law meter to instead drive Yvette the Corvette, which explodes for massive damage at the end of the move.
The neutral specials swaps you to Chip Hugginsbee, who will toss a snack from his backpack in a lofty arc. Spend chaos meter to instead whip out just a gun, for a faster and more powerful projectile that shoots straight forward.
The up special swaps you to Briquette Hoggins, who fires a cut of meat from his chest cavity straight down, giving him a small bit of air in the process. Spend chaos meter to instead summon Chokey the barbecue spirit, which propels Briquette faster, further, and in any direction.
The Dad Squad's finale has them reach into a Continuity Obliterating Recurrent Neutrino (or, C.O.R.N.) Hole, extruding them through time and space. Briefly, all four dads, and fractal copies of them, will spread horizontally across the stage, moving and attacking in unison.
To those who made it this far, thanks! This was my 29th moveset concept in this series, and I'm planning on taking a break from this once I post the 30th one. Lemme know if you have any guesses as to who it might be, and I'll see y'all then!

Your Sun sculpt and Moon wip are fucking CRAZZY GOOD!! Pardon if you've already answered this before, but what's the material you use to sculpt them from?
Also, would you consider ever posting a video of a time lapse of you working on Moon so we could see how you do it? I know id be absolutely enamoured also also taking notes ajdjeknf
Hi! Thanks for your comment) 🥰I work with baked polymer clay Fimo "Professional" (They are sold in large briquettes) Unfortunately, now I will not be able to make a video with the modeling process because there are no necessary tools and I am already in the middle of the process) But! I may make a video in the future)) I can give you a couple of links to YouTube videos that inspired me once)

Salamander, of the elemental variety
In terms of elemental forms it is a mistake to approach from a position of evolutionary taxonomy. As in all transitions from perpendicular realities, such creatures are born from and induce the mythological symbols that define their anatomy.
The concept manifests the symbol, the symbol communicates the concept, an oroboros of cause and effect that is no less existentially annoying for creating animals made of the idea of fire, which is so certain of itself it doesn't know that it shouldn't be able to burn your house down.
In practical terms, a salamander should be addressed in the same manner as a grease fire, by entrapping it in a fireproof metal vessel and blocking the oxygen flow. Without a source of oxygen, the creature will poof back to its native reality. Any major brand of charcoal briquette is adequate bait. Oily rags, old newspapers, and pre-1975 furniture will do in a pinch.

HARVESTING WOOD IN SOUTHERN SIBERIA/TUVA IN THE XIONGNU-XIANBEI PERIOD
One of the great hurdles for large-scale metal production and blacksmithing in the Eurasian steppes was not the mineral deposits, manpower or furnaces, but the fuel. The smelting process requires a great deal of heat for prolonged periods, which requires a lot of charcoal, which requires a lot of wood.
With most of the Eurasian steppes rather tree sparse and comparatively few navigable rivers, this puts a difficult choice in the hands of the nomadic metallurgist seeking to supply a large project; expend great effort in the movement of raw wood (heavy and cumbersome!); carry the charcoal? (unlikely: charcoal when not in modern briquettes is a flaky substance that will disintegrate when carried over distance); or, bring your furnaces and smelters as close to the fuel resources as possible?
This last choice is what was done majority of the time by our friends in the eastern steppes; convenient, as these areas with more trees (South Siberia/Tuva, Transbaikalia, Northern Mongolia, Altai) were also areas with rich deposits of iron ore and other minerals.
This is demonstrated archaeologically, with our largest collections of furnaces being found in association with these areas even before the Xiongnu state. While that is not to say that transport of the raw materials into the steppe did not happen, for nomadic people it makes more sense to bring yourself to where the resources are (spending part of the year there, at least) rather than go to the effort to bring them out into the grassland.
In this scene you can see them doing just that; harvesting wood and in the background, preparing charcoals in pits covered in earth. Once the process is done, they will be ferried to a nearby production site for utilization.
My latest video series discusses this matter of production, furnaces and other details around nomad blacksmithing:

Beijing
The past week or so has been spent in Beijing with my best friend from college, Irene. Irene has been living in Beijing since 2019 and teaches English at a high school here. I’ve really enjoyed getting to see her neck of the woods and have been so grateful to have her as a guide because China, especially Beijing, is very overwhelming.
I’ve been to Beijing before, in 2018, but it was just for a day and a half and things have changed a lot since then. Beijing is definitely comparable at least in my experience to Mexico City. It is absolutely enormous and a beast to get around in, but there is so much to see and do and every neighborhood is so interesting and different. After being here a week I’ve barely scratched the surface, but I’ll go through by day.
Day 1, Sunday
We spent most of the day traveling from Macau to Beijing and getting ourselves situated. I was very nervous about flying into Mainland China as they are quite strict at border control and only very recently reopened the border to foreigners. Things only recently opened back up about 3 months ago. I made it through without a problem though and we made our way to the place I’m renting for the week. China does not allow foreigners to stay with residents without going through a long and arduous registration process, so I’m staying in an apartment about 25 minutes away from Irene, which is considered very close by Beijing standards.
Absolutely everything in China is done via apps and QR codes. Everything from riding the bus to ordering food in a restaurant to getting a taxi to paying your water bill; it is all done via apps that are mainly in Chinese. Thank goodness for Irene helping me get all the right apps set up showing me the ropes. After a week here I’ve finally figured out how to do most things by myself. It is certainly very convenient, you don’t need to talk to anyone or even carry around a wallet in most places.
In the evening we did a food tour with Lost Plate tours, it was really cool because they took us around to a lot of off the beaten track restaurants you’d never be able to find on your own and we tried some really amazing dishes.
All of the restaurants were in the Wudaoying Hutong, one of the historic neighborhoods in central Beijing. In total we visited 4 restaurants.
We tried 炸酱面 (zhajiangmian) hand pulled noodles with savory plum sauce and fresh vegetables (my personal favorite), 烤肉(kao rou) old school Mongolian style barbecue cooked with hot briquettes right on your table with a flat grill top. The style originated with soldiers building cook-fires literally inside their helmets, laying their shields on top, and cooking on that. We also had 门钉肉饼 (men ding rou bing) gigantic pork buns, fried on both sides and 春饼 (chun bing) spring pancakes with a variety of fillings. We rode on rickshaws around the hutong to get in between the different restaurants, it was so much fun. By the time we finished at a brewery after the fourth restaurant, we were absolutely stuffed, and made our way back for the night. Beijing is in a heat wave right now, with temperatures ranging from 95-104 degrees every day for the past 2.5 weeks, but in the evening in the hutongs it finally cooled down a bit and it was really lovely to walk around and see the neighborhood.
Day 2, Monday
Today was a lot more laid back. Irene had to work today, that meant that I stayed in my apartment in the air conditioning to rest and recover from the last crazy few days. I ventured out a bit in the afternoon to a nearby mall to find food. Malls in Asia are no joke, they are like small cities with every single kind of store you can think of. In the evening Irene and I walked back to that same mall and ate at a Mexican restaurant, then we walked a bit and explored the Chaoyang area I’m staying in. Even this one small area is enormous, we’ve been averaging about 20,000 steps a day even without doing all that much today. We saw the local river, the Liangma River, and visited another mall. It was very beautiful.
Day 3, Tuesday
Today was another rest day, I did not leave my room until 5pm today. It’s hard feeling like I’m missing out on things when I take rest days; but I’m in China for about 3 more weeks, and know that if I don’t take these rest days I will burn out from exhaustion very quickly. Especially with our trend of walking 8+ miles every day in 90+ degree weather.
In the evening we met up with a former student of Irene’s, Vicki, for Beijing style hot-pot. If you’re not familiar with hot pot it is exactly as it sounds, you’re given a hot pot of broth or hot water and tons of ingredients that you can add in as you choose to cook in the pot and take out as they become ready to eat. Beijing style is a little different because instead of being heated from underneath on a hot plate or stove; a very tall burning hot cylinder is with hot briquettes is placed directly inside the pot, with a little chimney at the top for the smoke to escape. It’s hard to describe, so see the video above to see what it’s like. We ate so much food and were absolutely stuffed.
Later we walked to the Central Business District (known as CBD in Beijing 😆). There were tons of skyscrapers and interesting buildings, its where all the major Chinese corporations have their headquarters. We took photos at a famous building known as the “Pants” building because it looks literally like a pair of pants.
Day 4, Wednesday
Today was my last partial rest day for a while. Irene got off work early today so in the afternoon I met up with her and we went to 798, which is the former industrial area turned trendy artists’ neighborhood. There were a lot of abandoned factories here that have been turned into artists’ residences, studios, and galleries and is near Beijing’s major art colleges. There was a lot of public art that was cool to see. We ate at a giant shaved ice place and ordered way too much food. Who knew ice was so filling 😂
Later I got to visit Irene’s apartment, and then she packed a bag to come stay the night at my place as we had an early start tomorrow. We ordered dim sum delivery and watched dramas which in my book is an excellent evening.
Day 5, Thursday
Today was spent visiting Irene’s school. Back when I was teaching university level English in Mexico City, Irene was able to visit me and spend the day at my school so it was really cool to do it the other way around today.
Irene’s school is absolutely enormous. It is a K-12 private boarding school on the outskirts of Beijing. It reminded me a lot of a US college campus. Most of the students except for the young students and students who come from other provinces live on campus during the week and go home on the weekends. Most of these students plan on attending college abroad at prestigious universities in places like the UK, the US, Canada, and Australia after graduating. They get English instruction from a very young age and are thus very fluent by the time they graduate.
Irene teaches grade 10-12 English, with between 8-20 students per class. I was amazed by how self-sufficient and responsible the majority of the students were (compared to my absolutely feral first graders back home). They were doing a study of the story The Most Dangerous Game and then created characters to role play in a DnD campaign based on the story; which I thought was really cool. Irene’s prep period was right before the lunch break, so we had a full 2.5 hours for lunch. We ate Xinjiang cuisine at a mall nearby the school, Xinjiang is in northwestern China bordering Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Afghanistan so the cuisine was a unique mix of Middle Eastern and Chinese food; it was really really good. We didn’t realize we were eating there on the Eid holiday though and the restaurant was packed.
Later after teaching 3 classes Irene introduced me to a student of hers that wants to be an elementary school teacher after graduating. I hope I didn’t scare her off too much from the field. It was really cool but weird to talk with someone that age who is considering colleges and careers; I’m 29 and still feel like a kid most of the time, but thinking back to being 16/17 and thinking about how much I’ve learned and grown and experienced since then was very eye opening. Irene and I gave her a lot of advice about college etc. and we remembered being 21 and having all these anxieties about graduating and finding a job and all that and wow it is crazy how time flies and we are able to actually give advice about that stuff, it feels like just yesterday we were stressing about the exact same things she is stressing about.
In the evening we went to one of Irene’s favorite restaurants, The Taco Bar. Way back in 2013 Irene studied abroad in Beijing and was missing the easy access to Mexican cuisine we have in the US (specifically burritos) and went on a legendary search we now refer to as The Burrito Quest where she searched out and tried every single Mexican restaurant in Beijing, which is harder than it sounds. The Taco Bar didn’t have burritos, but it was hands down the winner of best Mexican restaurant in Beijing according to Irene. She has been coming here since 2013 even when their original location closed down, to their new location, and through the pandemic. We had an enormous amount of food and again ended the day extremely stuffed.
We had planned on this being our goodbye dinner, but we had discovered that Irene’s apartment had had a power cut. Rather than spend the night in darkness in 103 degree heat she decided to stay at my place again. But this meant embarking on an odyssey across Beijing to her apartment to get her stuff since she is traveling again this weekend; and then going back to my place for the air conditioning; this journey on Beijing public transport at rush hour during a heat wave was a major feat.
After 19,000 steps and a 2.5 hour trek we finally collapsed back at my place to sleep.
Day 6 Friday
Early in the morning I said goodbye to Irene as she headed off to work, she is traveling this weekend so she was going to the airport straight from work. I’ll really miss traveling with her, although I love solo travel, the best way to travel I think is with a close friend.
Today was my sightseeing day. I’ve been to Beijing before and have seen The Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, and the Great Wall before; and given the heat had no desire to confront the crowds there again.
So on Irene’s recommendation today I visited the Summer Palace. It is an enormous complex where the emperor would visit in the summer months in northern Beijing. It is much smaller than the main palace at the Forbidden City in central Beijing, but even so it was enormous. The emperor had it constructed when the capital of China was moved to Beijing in the 1300’s and many elements of the palace were modeled after areas in other places in China that the emperor liked.
There was a shopping street modeled after a town in southern China that I’m visiting later on in this trip. It is famous for being built on the water and it was my favorite area in the palace. There was an enormous manmade lake that was built to be Beijing’s emergency water supply and modeled after a famous lake in Kunming and was used to train naval officers. It was truly enormous. The land excavated from building the lake was used to create a 200ft tall hill upon which the palace itself was constructed. There were also literally thousands of smaller structures built throughout the massive forest grounds. I sat next to an old man on a bench for about 40 minutes while I ate a snack and did some people watching. Everyone else was moving so much and there were so many people but me and that old man were just vibing.
Most of the palace was looted by the British in the late 1800s, but the buildings themselves and natural structures were in amazing condition and it was really cool to see, albeit the heat.
Then I headed over to Nanluoguxiang hutong, another historic neighborhood in central Beijing. This is considered to be rather touristy, most of the original buildings were destroyed in renovations of the city, but were reconstructed to look like traditional neighborhoods in Imperial China, called hutongs. It is a very beautiful area, with streams and lots of people walking about. I visited here in 2018 and it was my favorite area of Beijing to just walk around in. I had some lunch and explored for a while and did some shopping.
My final stop of the day was Baiyunguan, the White Cloud Temple in southern Beijing. It is one of the oldest Taoist temples in China and is nearby a famous Taoist College. By this point in the day I was pretty exhausted from the 103 degree heat and having spent about 6 hours on public transportation and walking in crowded tourist sites. It was incredible to walk into the temple from the loud crowded street and immediately felt how calm and quiet it was. It was literally completely silent except for the wind and the birds.
I walked around the temple for a while. Taoism is one of several traditional Chinese religions, which work in synch with each other. Many Chinese people practice elements of Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, and animism. Taoism is all about finding balance and peace in the natural world. The temples themselves are actually called 观 (guan) which translates to look at or observe. This comes from the Taoist belief that understanding comes from looking at or observing the natural world, so the temples are places to look and observe. There were lots of very beautiful areas, some statues of deities people offered incense to, and lots of displays of art and calligraphy. It was very peaceful and a nice way to end the day.
I made my way back and collapsed for the rest of the day.
That’s it for Beijing, I’m amazed if you made it all the way through this very long post. It was great to spend time here. I am writing this post on a plane ride to my next stop, Zhangjiajie in Hunan province in south central China. Stay tuned!

Farm-to-Fuel ecosystem: Circular economy for Agri-waste
Tumblr media
The government of India has announced to reach net zero emissions by 2070 and to meet 50% of its electricity requirements from renewable energy sources by 2030. This is hugely significant for the global fight against climate change. Such targets can be met through increasing domestic production, adopting Biofuels and renewables, applying energy efficiency norms, developing refinery processes, and achieving demand substitution. India has abundant indigenous, non-polluting, and virtually inexhaustible renewable energy resources, which makes Biofuel a viable option. This environmentally friendly alternative also brings with it several possibilities to enable a positive transformation.
Why Biomass as Biofuel
India ranks in the top 3 countries by crop production. Agri-waste biomass holds the highest potential for small-scale business development and mass employment in India. Characterized by low-cost technologies and freely available raw materials, biomass as Biofuel has the potential to be one of the leading sources of primary energy. Aided by proven end-use technologies, biomass is not only environmentally efficient but also an economically sound option. Unfortunately, with millions of farmers in the workforce, farm waste is not considered as an avenue for extra income in India. Inefficiencies in the ecosystem such as a lack of delivery linkages, an unorganized supply chain, no direct connection of the industry with the source, low benefit to the farmer, and lack of transparent pricing, among others, also exacerbate matters. India imports nearly 85% of crude oil, which incurs high import costs. On top of it, the air quality in urban India is deteriorating due to the growing vehicular traffic and emissions. This is where Biofuel production can make a significant difference as it can seamlessly replace fossil fuels and help reduce the carbon footprint. Biofuels can pave the path to energy self-sufficiency and create a robust rural economy, thus aiding in overall economic development.
Factors enabling a biomass ecosystem Although there lies a huge opportunity in harnessing the rural markets of biomass, there also is a distinct lack of cohesion and connectivity between the farmers and the industry
Rural storages The seasonal availability coupled with round-the-year industrial demand, calls for mechanization and storage-related facilities in biomass catchment areas. The current shortage of mechanization and unavailability of small storage facilities is clearly one of the constraints as far as the supply chain is concerned. Encouraging farmers/ farmer collectives and rural businesses to create small rural storages will help harness biomass and help generate higher value for rural participants.
Small Rural Businesses Biomass is very low in density. Thus, despite of proven technical value as an energy source, the cost of logistics can make use of biomass uneconomical. Small briquette/ pellet manufacturing units located within 20 Km distance from the source will not only help solve the challenge of logistics but also create stronger rural enterprise and economic value.
Small Business Finance The challenge of storage and logistics will always call for decentralized small businesses as primary constituents of the biomass supply chain. Small storages, small processors, and small aggregators; all based in rural areas will facilitate India’s drive to use more than 200 million MT of annual Agri- waste. A few thousand such businesses dotting the rural landscape will call for efficient small business finance for this sector. How do we elevate the biomass supply chain to the level of acceptance of say an automotive supply chain? Tier 3 and Tier 4 suppliers of automakers benefit from their association with large OEMs. Capital as well as working capital is available at competitive rates for these suppliers. How do we create a similar supply chain for biomass? Will it be possible for a small rural business to get competitive interest finance because it is a tier 3 supplier to a large credit-rated company?
Supply QualityA key thing to recognize about biomass is that we are dealing with a natural product. Thus, its quality may vary based on crop type, soil type, weather conditions, and a host of other factors. Industrial end-use though calls for assured uniform quality. Defining quality standards, SOPs for quality assurance, and creating knowledge and skills to deliver uniform quality, will help these rural businesses scale up. Several sectors including the Tea industry have achieved standardization, grading, and price discovery methods that have made it a global industry. There is an urgent need to create a quality ecosystem for similar action in the biomass space.
Data Base From the perspective of a bioenergy company, investing in technology is contingent on the dependability and predictability of stakeholders. For instance, if one must set up a bioenergy company, they must ensure that there is a steady supply of biomass for at least 300 days in a year. Therefore, having the information about demand, supply, storages, pricing etc needs to become omnipresent. Availability of accurate and reliable information allows businesses to work on long term plans. Investment in the sector will grow when the supply chain becomes visible and transparent. Planning, forecasting, and investing in the sector will be aided if we are able to give a national character to biomass supply chain through such databases. The fledgling bioenergy technology sector will also benefit from this as lenders and investors will have a reliable basis for decision making.
Rural-Industrial Culture Industries in India have mostly tended to be attached to urban centres. Thus, the entire organization and cultural ecosystem that drives predictable and reliable operation from small rural businesses, will need human capital development. Trust between industrial buyers and rural sellers will be the direct outcome of these efforts.
Role of Digital Technology A few million farmers, seasonal supplies, small rural businesses, round-the-year industrial demand, and service providers for transport, quality, finance, etc make for an interesting used case for digitalization. To top it, the traceability of biomass from its origin to its end use will create a reliable framework for carbon neutrality. Along the way, one also needs to address issues associated with incentivization, price discovery, standardization, and supply reliability. While applications such as food delivery, transport services, etc which have a consumer end-use have become popular, for biomass we need a platform that makes it easy for millions of farmers to participate while providing a robust framework for industries too. The biomass supply chain is still at a very early stage. We currently use about 20% of the available Agri-residue biomass. At its maturity, the biomass product supply chain has the potential to be > 40 Bn US$ in annual turnover. The opportunity is for us to put a strong digital technology framework that creates, ease, efficiency, reliability, and choice.
Looking Ahead India has vast potential in terms of the 235 million tons of Agri waste that is generated every year. We need to look at this as an all-new industry that will support a few million farmers, and thousands of small rural businesses, and help India replace upwards of 17% of its fossil fuel through biomass. At some level, this means increasing the rural household income while we become carbon neutral.

Article:
Coconut coir, also known as coco coir or simply coir, is a versatile natural fiber extracted from the outer husk of coconuts. Traditionally, coir was used mainly for making ropes and mats, but over the years, its utility has expanded across various industries due to its eco-friendly and sustainable properties. Below are some common uses of coconut coir:
Horticulture and Agriculture Coconut coir is widely used as a growing medium in horticulture, often as an alternative to peat moss. It is ideal for gardening, hydroponics, and seed starting due to its excellent water retention and aeration properties. Here are some horticultural applications:
Soil amendment: Coir is often mixed with soil to improve its structure, drainage, and moisture-holding capacity. It promotes root growth while maintaining aeration. Hydroponics: Coir is used as a soil substitute in hydroponic systems because it holds water efficiently without becoming waterlogged. Seed starting: Coir is also used in seed trays as a sustainable, biodegradable material to help seedlings sprout. Mulching: Coir chips or chunks are used as mulch around plants, helping to reduce water evaporation and suppress weeds.
Erosion Control Coconut coir is used in erosion control products like coir logs, blankets, and mats. These products help stabilize slopes, riverbanks, and shorelines by promoting vegetation growth and preventing soil from washing away. The fibers decompose slowly, allowing time for plant roots to establish, making coir effective in managing soil erosion in various environments.
Packaging Material As a biodegradable material, coconut coir is gaining traction as an alternative to synthetic packaging. Coir fibers can be processed into packaging material to wrap fragile items or even molded into biodegradable pots and containers. This is a great way to reduce the amount of plastic waste generated by packaging industries.
Construction Material Coconut coir has potential applications in the construction industry, particularly in producing eco-friendly building materials. For example, coir fiber can be used to manufacture composite boards, which can serve as an alternative to plywood or MDF. These boards are durable, lightweight, and eco-friendly, making them ideal for use in sustainable construction practices.
Textiles and Furniture Traditionally, coconut coir was primarily used for making mats, ropes, brushes, and brooms. Nowadays, its application in the textile industry has expanded to include the production of:
Coir mats and rugs: Popular in both indoor and outdoor settings for their durability and ability to trap dirt. Mattresses and cushions: Coir fibers can be combined with latex to create a firm, breathable material used in mattresses and furniture cushioning. Geotextiles: Coir geotextiles are widely used for stabilizing soil in landscaping, civil engineering projects, and road construction.
Pet Products Coir fiber is increasingly used in the production of pet products like bedding for reptiles, small mammals, and birds. The material is natural, biodegradable, and has high absorbency, making it an excellent choice for pet care.
Coir Pith Also known as coco peat, coir pith is a byproduct of the coir extraction process. It’s a lightweight, spongy material that is often used in gardening as a soil conditioner, mulch, or growing medium. Coir pith can hold large amounts of water and has excellent aeration, which makes it valuable in water conservation and organic farming.
Biofuels and Biomass Coconut coir is also used as a source of biofuel. The leftover husks from coir production can be processed into coir dust, which can then be compressed into briquettes or pellets used as biomass fuel. These fuels are renewable and can be used for heating or energy generation in a sustainable way.
Conclusion Coconut coir is a versatile, sustainable material with numerous applications across industries. Its properties make it an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic materials, and as awareness of sustainability grows, its use is likely to expand further into new markets and applications. Whether in horticulture, construction, or packaging, coir is contributing to more eco-conscious practices globally. Please find useful products to buy.

Experience the ultimate smoky flavor with these homemade smoked pork ribs. The perfect combination of spices, slow smoking, and a tangy basting sauce creates a BBQ delight that will make your summer memorable.
Ingredients: 3 lbs pork ribs. 1 cup brown sugar. 1/2 cup paprika. 1/4 cup black pepper. 1/4 cup salt. 2 tbsp garlic powder. 2 tbsp onion powder. 1 tbsp cayenne pepper. 1 cup apple cider vinegar. 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce. 1/4 cup yellow mustard. Wood chips hickory or mesquite. Charcoal briquettes.
Instructions: Combine brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper to create the rub. Rub the mixture generously over the pork ribs, covering all sides. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a more intense flavor. Prepare the homemade smoker with charcoal briquettes and a handful of soaked wood chips hickory or mesquite for added smokiness. Place the marinated ribs on the smoker rack, ensuring they are not directly over the coals. Close the lid. Maintain a steady temperature of around 225F 107C and smoke the ribs for 4-5 hours, adding more soaked wood chips as needed. In a bowl, mix apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow mustard to create a basting sauce. Baste the ribs every hour during the smoking process to keep them moist and enhance the flavor. Once the ribs reach an internal temperature of 190F 88C and have a beautiful bark, remove them from the smoker. Let the ribs rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite BBQ sides and enjoy!

How to Get Rid of Mothball Smell: A Comprehensive Guide
Mothballs are commonly used to protect clothing and other items from moths and insects. However, they leave behind a strong, lingering odor that can be unpleasant. If you’ve ever unpacked seasonal clothes or opened storage boxes and been hit by that pungent smell, you're not alone.
Tumblr media
1. Air Out the Items
Why it works: Mothball odor is caused by chemicals like naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which can evaporate over time when exposed to fresh air.
How to do it:
Outdoor airing: Take the affected items outside and hang them in a well-ventilated area, preferably under sunlight. Sunlight helps break down the chemicals, accelerating the process.
Indoor airing: If airing outside is not possible, place the items in a room with open windows and good air circulation. A fan can speed up the process.
2. Use Vinegar
Why it works: Vinegar is a natural deodorizer that neutralizes odors by balancing the pH level.
How to do it:
Clothing: Add 1-2 cups of white vinegar to the washing machine along with your detergent and run a cycle for the mothball-affected clothes.
Furniture: For non-washable fabrics or furniture, fill a bowl with vinegar and place it near the affected item. The vinegar will absorb the odor over time. Be sure to place the bowl in a well-ventilated area.
Storage containers: Wipe down plastic or wooden containers with a mixture of vinegar and water (50/50). Leave the container open to air dry.
3. Use Baking Soda
Why it works: Baking soda absorbs and neutralizes bad odors effectively.
How to do it:
Clothing: Sprinkle baking soda over the affected clothes and leave them in an open bag or bin for 1-2 days. Then, shake off the baking soda and wash the clothes as usual.
Carpets and furniture: Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over carpets, sofas, or cushions. Let it sit for several hours or overnight, then vacuum it up.
4. Use Charcoal or Activated Carbon
Why it works: Activated carbon or charcoal is highly porous and works as a natural odor absorber.
How to do it:
Place charcoal briquettes or activated carbon packets in the closet, drawers, or storage bins where the mothball smell is strong.
Leave them for a few days or even weeks, depending on how strong the odor is.
5. Use Coffee Grounds
Why it works: Coffee grounds not only absorb odors but also leave a more pleasant smell behind.
How to do it:
Fill small containers or socks with dry, fresh coffee grounds and place them in areas where the smell is prevalent.
Leave for a few days to a week, then remove.
6. Use Essential Oils
Why it works: Essential oils provide a pleasant scent that can overpower and replace the strong smell of mothballs.
How to do it:
Add a few drops of your favorite essential oils (like lavender or eucalyptus) to a spray bottle filled with water and lightly mist the affected items.
Alternatively, place cotton balls soaked in essential oils in drawers or storage areas to continuously emit fragrance.
7. Use Lemon or Citrus Peels
Why it works: Citrus peels, especially lemon, are known for their refreshing scent and odor-neutralizing properties.
How to do it:
Place fresh lemon or orange peels in closets, drawers, or near affected items.
Replace the peels every few days until the smell dissipates.
Tip: Be sure to check the peels for mold if you leave them for more than a few days.
8. Wash the Area with Soap and Water
Why it works: Simple soap and water can help wash away some of the lingering chemical residue causing the odor.
How to do it:
For hard surfaces (like shelves, floors, and closets), wipe them down with a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap.
After wiping, dry the surface completely and leave the area open to air out.
9. Replace or Remove Mothballs
Why it works: Prevention is the best method. If mothballs are still present, the odor will continue to linger.
How to do it:
Remove mothballs from drawers, closets, and storage spaces immediately.
Consider switching to alternatives like cedar blocks, lavender sachets, or bay leaves, which are natural repellents and don't leave a harsh odor.
Conclusion
Mothball odors can be frustrating, but with the right techniques, they can be eliminated. Whether you opt for natural deodorizers like vinegar and baking soda or prefer fresh scents like essential oils and citrus peels, these methods are effective in neutralizing the strong smell. Don’t forget to regularly air out clothes and storage spaces to keep them fresh and mothball-free in the future.
