|A Kentucky classic from the Brown Hotel in Louisville, a Kentucky Hot Brown is an open-faced turkey sandwich, topped with a rich Mornay sauce and garnished with slices of fresh tomato and crisp bacon.
Kentucky Hot BrownEver had a Kentucky Hot Brown? Chances are if you've traveled to The Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky you probably have, and though I've certainly been to Louisville, I've never been to The Brown Hotel, so I hadn't! In honor of the Kentucky Derby this weekend, which frankly has been kinda lost in the shuffle of Cinco de Mayo menus and Mother's Day, I thought I'd get this posted to share what all of the hub bub is about, and so I went straight to the source to find out how.
A Kentucky Hot Brown is a sort of open-faced, hot turkey sandwich that comes with a history. Don't you just love food with a story?
Invented at The Brown Hotel by Chef Fred Schmidt back in the 20s, it was intended for the late night dance crowd who apparently had grown tired of typical breakfast fare after a long night of dancing. Chef Schmidt decided to try serving a unique open-faced turkey sandwich that included bacon, and a delicate Mornay sauce, and the Hot Brown, was born!
The original sandwich uses thick Texas toast slices, with the crusts trimmed, and only calls for one slice per sandwich. I substituted regular sandwich bread, because that is what I had on hand, and while the online recipe doesn't mention it, a source who has eaten this dish tells me that it is apparently served with both a slice of toast on the bottom, plus two toast points that are wedged into the side. I suspect that they do those sides slices as it comes out of the broiler though, since I inserted them before and caught some burned edges. So you won't want to do that!
Since I never claim authenticity on any recipe that I make that is not from my own area, we'll just call this a Kentucky Hot Brown "My Way" since I made a few adaptations from the original.
For each Hot Brown you'll want to lightly toast two slices of bread, cut off the crusts and slice them diagonally. Place one slice in the bottom of an oven safe plate or bowl. I used my old 70s Mikasa bowls - aren't they loverly?!
Set the other toast aside to tuck in after broiling the dish. Top the bread slices with turkey. The original sandwich uses thick slices of roasted turkey breast, but I substituted deli turkey breast since that is what I have on hand most of the time and I hadn't planned on roasting a turkey. When I made this I went ahead and tucked in the other slice of toast on the side, but I would suggest that you wait to add those when the dish comes out from under the broiler.
They use a Roma tomato at The Brown Hotel, halved, but I substituted what I had on hand, and just cut wedges off of a hot house tomato instead. Works for me! Then I made up a Mornay sauce - a simple Bechamel sauce with cheese, often a mix of half Gruyere and half Parmesan, but it can be any cheese really. The Brown Hotel uses only Pecorino Romano, but Romano is a bit strong for my taste, so I used a mix of mostly shredded Swiss cheese with just a bit of Parmesan. The Brown Hotel also uses heavy whipping cream in their Mornay sauce, where I used half and half.
Pour the Mornay sauce over the sandwich and add a light sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top.
Place both plates on a baking sheet, and put them under the broiler with the oven door ajar, just long enough for the sauce to bubble up and lightly brown the top. Remove, and place the hot plate onto another plate, sprinkle with a bit of paprika for color, cross two slices of bacon on top, add chopped parsley and another pinch of Parmesan and serve immediately.
Overall, it's a tasty sandwich though even my version I found to be quite rich. Yes. I said that! Still I would make it again, though I'm pretty certain I'll be liable to add some Cajun flair to it. Stranger things have happened.

Recipe: Kentucky Hot Brown©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 15 min | Total time: About 25 min | Yield: 2 servings
For the Mornay Sauce:
For the Sandwich:
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 2 tablespoons of all purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups of half and half
- 1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons of shredded Parmesan cheese, plus additional for garnish
- 1/2 teaspoon spicy mustard
- Salt and white pepper, to taste
- 10 ounces of thick sliced, roasted turkey breast, divided
- 4 slices of bacon, cooked crisp
- 4 thick slices of bread (like Texas toast), toasted, crust removed and sliced diagonally
- 1/2 of a large tomato, cut into 4 wedges
- Paprika, to garnish
- Parsley, to garnish
Preheat the oven to broil. Toast the bread and remove the crusts.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Cook, stirring constantly for about 4 minutes. Whisk in the half and half and simmer until mixture thickens. Remove skillet from the heat and stir in the shredded Swiss and Parmesan cheeses, mustard, and salt and pepper, until well blended. Taste and adjust seasonings.
For each serving, lay one slice of the cut and toasted bread in the bottom of an oven safe serving dish. Set aside the remaining toast. Add 2 thick slices of turkey breast (about 5 ounces) on top of the toast for each dish and arrange 2 wedges of tomato at the opposite edges of the dish, along the base of the turkey. Divide the Mornay Sauce evenly between the two dishes, over the top of the turkey. Garnish the top with a pinch of the Parmesan cheese.
Place both dishes onto a baking sheet and transfer under the broiler, leaving the oven cracked. Broil just until the cheese begins to bubble and it turns light brown on top. Using pot holders, carefully remove the plates and place each of them onto another oven safe serving plate. Add the additional toast points to the platter, if desired. Sprinkle a bit of paprika on top for color, cross two whole slices of the crispy bacon on the top of each dish, and add a sprinkle of parsley and another pinch of Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately. Makes 2
Cook's Notes: Can use a mix of half Gruyere and half Parmesan for the Swiss and Parmesan, but it can be any cheese you like really. The Brown Hotel uses only Pecorino Romano, but Romano is a bit strong for my taste, so I used a mix of mostly shredded Swiss cheese with just a bit of Parmesan. The Brown Hotel also uses heavy whipping cream in their Mornay sauce, where I used half and half. For a party, make these into finger food mini sliders by using the small rye or pumpernickel party bread slices. Heat, then add fresh slices of Roma tomatoes on top and rough chop the cooked bacon to sprinkle on top as a garnish.

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) — Satellite data that confirmed a Malaysian jetliner missing for more than two weeks crashed in the Indian Ocean included a final electronic signal that is still being investigated, Malaysian acting Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said on Tuesday.
"There is evidence of a partial handshake between the aircraft and ground station at 0019 UTC (8:00 p.m. EDT)," Hishammuddin told a news conference. "At this time, this transmission is not understood and is subject to further ongoing work."
Prime Minister Najib Razak said on Sunday that groundbreaking satellite-data analysis by the British company Inmarsat had revealed that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which vanished while flying to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur on March 8, had crashed thousands of miles away in the southern Indian Ocean.
Preliminary analysis of the satellite "pings" had only been able to place the plane's final position in one of two vast arcs stretching from the Caspian Sea to the southern Indian Ocean.

The pace of growth in the Australian economy seems to have slowed. GDP data released overnight showed that economy grew 0.6% QoQ (Q2) compared to the more impressive 1.4% in Q1. The main contributing factor seemed to be the mining sector, down 1.4%. Perhaps this is due to other mitigating factors, though analysts are likely to point to the connection between the slowing of Chinese demand and Australian mining supply.

Personalised Cherished Number Plates
Since their humble beginning in 1903, cherished numbers have continued to increase in popularity often adding the finishing touch to our prized possessions and very often prove to be a valuable investment.
The First Number Plate Ever Issued

The Motor Car Act 1903, which came into force on 1 January 1904, required all motor vehicles to be entered on an official vehicle register, and to carry number plates. The Act was passed in order that vehicles could be easily traced in the event of an accident or contravention of the law. Vehicle registration number plates in the UK are rectangular or square in shape, with the exact permitted dimensions of the plate and its lettering set down in law.

A businessman who bought the No.1 limited edition licence plate in Abu Dhabi for Dh31 million has been sentenced to three years in jail for issuing a dud cheque to the organisers.
The Emirati man had bought the special number plate at an auction last year.
The Abu Dhabi Misdemeanour Court handed down the sentence to the Emirati man after he was found guilty of fraud and issuing a bounced cheque.
Abu Dhabi public prosecution had ordered for the detention of the 32-year-old man after organisers of the auction filed a complaint that he issued them a cheque after buying the number plate, even though he didn't have enough balance in his bank account.
Prosecutors had detained the businessman. He was charged with fraud and issuing a bounced cheque.
And during interrogation, the Emirati admitted to giving the cheque to orginisers despite being aware he didn't have sufficient funds in his account, said prosecutors.
"He said he was planning to re-sale the rare number plate at a profit so he could pay the value of the cheque to the organisers and maintain enough balance in his account," said a prosecutor.
Authorities, however, said one can only re-sale a number plate bought in an auction after one has paid the full amount and that any resale before making the payment is considered illegal.
The auction, which generated Dh99 million, was hosted by Emirates Auction in cooperation with Abu Dhabi Police on November 19, 2016 at Emirates Palace hotel to commemorate the Abu Dhabi Government's Golden Jubilee.
And the Emirati beat several bidders for the coveted plate after starting at Dh1 million. The limited-edition golden jubilee plates all featured the number 50 in the top left corner.
Fifty vanity Abu Dhabi number plates were up for grabs at the Emirates Auction event.
As popularity grows, the prices reached for the most expensive plates are always increasing. As of 2008, the record price for a number plate is £397,500 paid at auction in September by an anonymous buyer for the plate S 1. This was originally owned by Sir John H A MacDonald, the Lord Kingsburgh and was Edinburgh's first ever number plate. Car design entrepreneur Afzal Kahn paid £375,000 on 25 January 2008 for F 1 previously owned and sold by Essex County Council and affixed originally in 1904 to the Panhard et Levassor of the then County Surveyor. £330,000 was spent on M 1, sold at auction in Goodwood on 7 June 2006.
Students at a school in Surrey have been threatened with having their bikes locked away unless they comply with a new policy on cycling to school, which includes having a number plate attached to their bikes.
In a letter sent to parents, Keith Batchelor, head of the Beacon School in Banstead, said that he was implementing new rules on children cycling into school, and parents would have to sign an agreement before their children were allowed to ride in.
As well as telling students to stick to the Highway Code, wear a helmet, and use hi-vis clothing and bike lights "where appropriate", the new rules also mean that students will have to have a number plate (supplied by the school) attached to their bikes, which Mr Batchelor hoping that this will make students not following the rules more identifiable.
"On joining the school this September, I decided to refine the current cycling policy to enhance further the safety of the students in our care and develop their sense of responsibility on the road," Mr Batchelor said in a statement, as reported by Get Surrey.
"The procedures will support the safeguarding of our students on their journeys to and from school and help us to celebrate safe cycling. We will provide extra training to students where it is needed."
As part of the new policy, the school says that students who fail to follow the rules may be banned from cycling to school, with those who continue to ride in having their bikes locked up until their parents or carers are available to collect them.
Number plates for bikes have been the subject of discussion in recent months after a survey by Halfords found that two-thirds of respondents were in favour of cyclists having to have them attached to their bikes.
However the idea came was slammed by both cycling campaigners and motoring groups, with the AA describing it as "impractical and unnecessary" while Cycling UK said "rather than encouraging people to cycle, and bring all the associated health and wealth benefits, it is more than likely to put newcomers or occasional cyclists off cycling altogether."
It should be noted that there are no restrictions on using a vanity or cherished registration on a car that is newer than the original date of the registration plate, but it is prohibited to transfer a registration that is newer than the vehicle it is used on. This is to prevent the transfer of newer registrations to older vehicles as a measure to protect consumers.
It was 1980 when legislation was passed to allow Illinois drivers to order vanity and personalized license plates. As defined then, vanity plates contained up to six letters or the numbers 1 to 999. Personalized plates had a combination of desired letters and numbers. In the very first year, 24,000 state residents decided they wanted to pay extra to show off their vanity to fellow motorists.
Drivers were displaying personalized plates long before 1980 however.
There was no law that he could find before 1980 authorizing such plates. Instead, he figures it likely was a typical case of not what you knew being important, but who you knew.
There's no question, however, that it was 1907 when the Motor Vehicle Act, which required motorists to register with the secretary of state's office, became law. For a one-time $2 fee per vehicle, motorists received a round aluminum disk with a registration number to affix to their vehicles. (Drivers had to furnish their own plates until 1911. The disks were dropped in 1917.) From July 1, 1907, to June 30, 1909, the state registered 20,224 vehicles. Sidney S. Gorham, of LaGrange, was issued license plate number 1.
As you might guess, that "one-time fee" didn't last long. Probably realizing they had a cash cow on their hands, the state began charging an annual fee in 1909 and re-registered all vehicles.
More interesting plate trivia: In 1912, front plates were perforated so more air could flow through a car's radiator. Aluminum license plates were issued for the first time in 1950. The slogan "Land of Lincoln" debuted in 1954, although a requirement for showing Lincoln's image was dropped because it was deemed impractical at the time.
Purple and white plates were issued in 1964 to honor both McKendree College and Rockford College (as they were known then). In 1966, for the first time in 30 years, fees were increased 50 cents to pay for a new reflective coating. In 1977, drivers were able to complain about lousy photos on their licenses for the first time. The discontinuation of annual plates in 1979 ended a 67-year run, the longest in the United States. In 1985, all vehicles were charged the same fee ($48) rather than one based on horsepower.

This lesson explores the relationship between the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere available for precipitation and actual precipitation levels.
This is an online reading associated with activities during Solar Week, a twice-yearly event in March and October during which classrooms are able to interact with scientists studying the Sun.
Using a graphing calculator and a Norland Research calculator robot, students create programs in TI-BASIC to direct their robot through a variety of tasks. Ten robot missions and three exploration extensions are included in this lesson booklet.
Learners will make a "star finder" toy and play a game to find a constellation in the night sky.
In this activity, a three-part questionnaire launches students into discussions about where objects in space are located, and when they formed - an introduction to the concepts of structure and evolution of the universe.
This science-based storybook provides an introduction to soil description and sampling. Simon, Anita and Dennis follow their dog, Scoop, and find themselves in the middle of an adventure in soil.
In these activities, students continue to explore the idea of interaction among Earth components as they identify processes in the Earth system and indicate how they illustrate an interaction between two of the Earth system components.
This is a lesson about spacecraft design. Learners will hear the NASA solutions to the problems they wrote about in an earlier lesson. They will then write a nonfiction piece comparing their spacecraft to Cassini, and share their writing with the class.
This is a unit in 7-8 sessions about objects outside of our solar system, including galaxies and the universe. Learners will investigate the contents of the universe, why light years are used to measure distances in space, the lifespan of a star, and detecting extrasolar planets.
Students will create a three-dimensional model from a two-dimensional topographic map.

Stanford Blood Center Uses These Come From Trees Sticker to Stanch Paper Towel Waste
I like to keep an eye on which organizations show up in the TCFT inbox, and the other day, one that's near and dear to my heart showed up.
The Stanford Blood Center is a subsidiary of Stanford Medical School, and has a couple locations around Palo Alto. It's also where I give blood as often as my schedule allows (every 8 weeks or so).
I like to do apheresis, where they pull your blood out, run it through a centrifuge to filter out plasma and platelets, which are retained, and then return your red blood cells. The plasma and platelets are really important for burn victims, folks with immune problems, newborns, etc.
One reason why I really like apheresis, is that even though it takes longer (an hour and a half), you get more "bang for your buck" than just donating a pint of whole blood (30 minutes), because an hour's worth of aphersis can result in something like 10x the amount of "blood product" as a pint of whole blood.
As folks who are familiar with These Come From Trees, I'm a fan of technology that force-multiplies individual effort. And plus, I just sit there doing email one-handed on the free wifi they provide at the Blood Center, and time flies! They have a location that's right down the street from VMware, so it's a slam dunk for me.
Anyway, I digrees. Michelle Harmon, a staffer at the Blood Center, recently ran across a TCFT sticker in the ladies' room at the Tied House Brewery in downtown San Jose. She liked the sticker, remembered the TheseComeFromTress.com domain, and ended up on the blog, where she read all about, and loved what she saw.
So she ended up ordering 200 stickers for deploying across their three locations to help make the Blood Center a greener place. How's that for a happy ending?

Atlas Copco Rock Drills AB has been named coordinator of the European consortium on Sustainable Intelligent Mining Systems (SIMS). This mining industry initiative is funded by Horizon 2020, the biggest EU research and innovation program ever. Designed to drive sustainable economic growth, Horizon 2020 has the political backing of Europe's leaders and the EU Parliament. You can learn more about the scope of this exciting initiative at SIMSmining.eu
To encourage job growth while improving mining practices around the world, Horizon 2020 put out a call for innovation action within the European mining industry. Those who answered the challenge now make up a consortium of 11 organizations from Sweden, Finland, Germany and Poland.
As coordinator of the initiative, part of Atlas Copco's role will be sharing information with the project consortium members and external stakeholders such as customers, politicians, and society in general. In addition to Atlas Copco, the SIMS consortium consists of ABB, Agnico Eagle, Boliden, Ericsson, KGHM Cuprum, K+S KALI, LKAB, Mobilaris, Luleå University of Technology and RWTH Aachen University.
"Stakeholder expectations are high, but with such a strong consortium, we are sure to deliver," says Mikael Ramström, Atlas Copco's Manager of Global Strategic Projects and Alliances, who is now taking on the role as Project Coordinator SIMS.
Atlas Copco provides equipment for drilling and rock excavation through a global network. With new advances in low-emission, battery-powered equipment, as well as telematics and automation, the long-established Swedish firm is a key driver behind the technology shaping the future of sustainable mining. Their strong foundation within the industry, combined with forward thinking, made Atlas Copco a clear choice to coordinate this consortium, with a total budget of €16 million over three years.
"We are very proud to lead this consortium. It has been extremely exciting to develop this winning project proposal together with the rest of the group members. We are looking forward to the next phase, as we prepare for the start-up of the SIMS initiative," says Andreas Nordbrandt, President, Atlas Copco Underground Rock Excavation Division.
The SIMS consortium is working to not only support economic growth, but also positively change the perception of the mining industry as a whole. With innovative solutions that focus on safe, efficient and ecologically-sound mining, SIMS members will demonstrate that sustainable practices are not only desirable, but essential to the transformation of profitable mining operations.
Each SIMS consortium partner will demonstrate their new advancements in working mines located around Europe. Technology demonstrated will include: Ericsson's 5G communication, ABB's 800xA process control, Mobilaris' underground positioning system, and Atlas Copco's battery-power and automation technology for mining.
Atlas Copco is proud to take a crucial role in the advancement of the state-of-the-art innovation being developed by all the SIMS partners. "SIMS is a fantastic opportunity and we look forward to working closely with our established partners to further innovation and safety within the mining industry," says Morgan Rody, Atlas Copco's Project Manager for SIMS.
To further advance progress in sustainable mining, the work of the SIMS consortium will be well documented, and the data will be shared with stakeholders in the European and global mining industry. The results are sure to demonstrate how innovators from the EU are making the future of global mining possible.

(Guru's note: This proposal has been slightly amended after great feedback and additional considerations. I believe this is now the most plausible proposal to modify the framework of the BCS.)
The BCS annual meeting is set to take place next Monday in Pasadena, where the commissioners are expected to hobnob and mostly wring their hands before declaring the BCS a "success."
There will be a couple of issues. The pesky Mountain West has a proposal and it wants to be heard. It will be, but just like the last words from a death-row inmate, it's not going to make any difference. And there's the congressional pressure, but with re-election coming up in 18 months, that may be played off by a pledge for "more studying."
But sooner or later, the BCS will have to deal with this. As it nears the conclusion of its third four-year contract, the public is fed up with a system that provides very little satisfaction in crowning a true champion. The concept of a "national champion" in Division I-A is as mythical as ever, as none of the past three BCS champions may lay an undisputed claim to the title.
It doesn't have to be this way.
The Guru has devised a "playoff" scheme that creates minimal conflict with the current regime and may be implemented immediately. The concept is tested against the 11 past BCS seasons, which proved that it would have stifled any controversy in the course of determining a true champion. The beauty of this proposal is in its simplicity.
So here it is:
1. Add two games to the current format - national semifinal games played on campus sites the week after the last regular-season games are played and BCS standings are released.
2. The semifinalists will be the four teams meeting the following criteria -
a) The four highest-ranked conference champions, provided that they're in the top six of the final BCS standings.*
b) Any team that finished in the top two but failed to win its conference.
c) In case of a conflict between a) and b), b) takes precedence over the lowest-ranked conference champion.
* Conference champion may be from any conference, regardless of BCS affiliation. In the case of conferences without a championship game, a co-champion is accepted and no tiebreaker needs to be applied. Notre Dame belongs in this group as well.
3. The higher seeds host the lower seeds on campus sites, with the winners advancing to the national championship game, to be played one week after New Year's Day.
4. All bowl games and their affiliations stay in tact. The losing semifinalists are guaranteed a spot in one of the BCS bowls, in accordance with their conference affiliations. Second-place teams may be invited in place of the semifinal winners, as it is the case now with the top two teams.
That's it. And here's the historical data on how this system would've worked over the past 11 seasons:
2008: No. 6 Utah (MWC champion) at No. 1 Oklahoma (Big 12); No. 5 USC (Pac-10) at No. 2 Florida (SEC) ** No. 3 Texas and No. 4 Alabama did not qualify
2007: No. 4 Oklahoma (Big 12) at No. 1 Ohio State (Big Ten); No. 3 Virginia Tech (ACC) at No. 2 LSU (SEC)
2006: No. 6 Louisville (Big East) at No. 1 Ohio State (Big Ten); No. 5 USC (Pac-10) at No. 2 Florida (SEC) ** No. 3 Michigan and No. 4 LSU did not qualify
2005: No. 6 Notre Dame at No. 1 USC (Pac-10); No. 3 Penn State (Big Ten) at No. 2 Texas (Big 12) ** No. 4 Ohio State and No. 5 Oregon did not qualify
2004: No. 6 Utah (MWC) at No. 1 USC (Pac-10); No. 3 Auburn (SEC) at No. 2 Oklahoma (Big 12) ** No. 4 Texas and No. 5 California did not qualify
2003: No. 4 Michigan (Big Ten) at No. 1 Oklahoma (at-large); No. 3 USC (Pac-10) at No. 2 LSU (SEC)
2002: No. 4 USC (Pac-10) at No. 1 Miami (Big East); No. 3 Georgia (SEC) at No. 2 Ohio State (Big Ten)
2001: No. 4 Oregon (Pac-10) at No. 1 Miami (Big East); No. 3. Colorado (Big 12) at No. 2 Nebraska (at-large)
2000: No. 4 Washington (Pac-10) at No. 1 Oklahoma (Big 12); No. 3 Miami (Big East) at No. 2 Florida State (ACC)
1999: No. 4 Alabama (SEC) at No. 1 Florida State (ACC); No. 3 Nebraska (Big 12) at No. 2 Virginia Tech (Big East)
1998: No. 5 UCLA (Pac-10) at No. 1 Tennessee (SEC); No. 4 Ohio State (Big Ten) at No. 2 Florida State (ACC) ** No. 3 Kansas State did not qualify
A quick review of the data reveals the following:
* Controversies over the past three years, as well as in 2004 (when there were four unbeaten teams), 2003 (three one-loss teams), 2001 and 2000 (when a No. 2 team was beaten by a No. 3 team during the season), would have been quelled as all teams in question would be semifinalists and could settle things on the field.
* Twice, a non-BCS conference champion - Utah in 2004 and 2008 - would've made the playoffs. Notre Dame qualified in 2005.
* Two at-large teams - Nebraska in 2001 and Oklahoma in 2003 - made the field.
* Conference breakdown - Pac-10 (9), Big 12 (9, including 2 at-large bids), SEC (8), Big Ten (6), Big East (5), ACC (4), MWC (2), Notre Dame (1).
* Recent trends - USC would've been in six of the last seven playoffs, missing only 2007; SEC champion would've been in the field also in six of the last seven, missing only in 2005; Oklahoma would've been in four of the last six; and Louisville was the only Big East team to make it after Miami and Virginia Tech left for the ACC.
For emphasis, here's why this plan should be strongly considered by the commissioners and needs to be put in place as soon as possible:
1. It's logistically sensible: In contrast to most "playoff" proposals, this does not take on unreasonable logistical and travel cost. Only two teams are doing the extra traveling, with games played at home venues that can easily sell out on short notice.
2. It doesn't upset the BCS apple cart: The BCS standings can use a tweaking, but the pressure on the existing system should be relieved considerably - with four teams in the mix instead of just two. It also should minimize voter meddling in creating the "championship matchup." Look at the historical data, just about every team worthy of a shot at the championship that season would've been in the "playoff."
3. It keeps the bowl structure in tact: The current bowl infrastructure stays completely in tact with just one exception: All non-BCS bowl matchups are announced at the same time as they do now, but BCS bowl lineups will be revealed after the semifinals, creating an extra week of excitement and suspense.
4. It preserves the meaning of regular season: It rewards conference champions, but also gives non-champions a chance, with a bar set high at the top two slots. As you can see with the historical precedents, it's possible for a non-champion to still qualify, but champions of all conferences have a fair chance of reaching the "playoff," whether they're in a BCS conference or not. It behooves teams to schedule tough and win their conference.
5. It creates attractive matchups: In two of the last three seasons, you would've seen USC playing Florida in the semifinals - in the current scenario, the Trojans have never faced an SEC team in a BCS bowl. The title game would have even more meaning and legitimacy because whoever emerges as the winner would be crowned as the true champion.

At the recent RSA conference in San Francisco, CA, LastPass announced support for Yubico's latest two-factor authentication technology. The NFC-enabled YubiKey NEO is Yubico's first step to expanding their technology across smartphones and tablets.
To explain the terminology a bit, "NFC" is short for "Near Field Communication". It's a short-range wireless technology that allows devices to talk to each other and perform other actions, like transferring data and doing transactions. There is usually a chip in the smartphone that can communicate with software on the device while receiving signals from an external device (in this case, the YubiKey NEO).
Like the basic YubiKey, the YubiKey NEO is a small token that fits naturally on a keychain. The device combines the NFC swipe technology with the regular USB interface, so you can use the YubiKey NEO to authenticate your LastPass account on both your computer and your smartphone.
How it works
You can first associate a YubiKey with your LastPass account in your LastPass account settings (accessed from your LastPass Vault by launching the "account settings" link and clicking the "YubiKey" tab). After inserting your YubiKey into a USB port on your computer, you can focus in one of the YubiKey fields and swipe the device to enter the data. Once you have updated your settings, you can grab your Android and launch the LastPass app to login.
When the YubiKey NEO is introduced to an NFC-enabled smartphone, the YubiKey emits a securely encrypted one time password (OTP), which the phone reads.
Yubico's video shows the device in action with LastPass:
How to get one
For early adopters who want the technology now, pre-production samples of the YubiKey NEO are available at Yubico's web store for $50 per unit. Pre-production samples are only available in single units, with volume orders and full production planned for summer 2012. We may offer a bundle with LastPass Premium and the YubiKey NEO in the future, since YubiKey support is a LastPass Premium feature. For those who may be considering LastPass Premium, the upgrade is $12 per year for unlimited access to all LastPass Premium features.
We're continuing to explore opportunities for enhancing mobile security and the mobile experience as a whole, stay tuned for future updates.

Thomas Mann watched as worker after worker at Fleet Readiness Center East at Cherry Point was subject to he
Thomas Mann watched as workers at Fleet Readiness Center East at Cherry Point were subject to heavy vibrations from riveting.
He came up with a solution to lessen the blow, one he thought was too easy.
�The idea is so simple, I can�t believe nobody thought of it before,� he said.
For his �simple� idea, Mann was honored with a patent award Thursday at NAVAIR headquarters at Naval Air Station Patuxent in Maryland.
Daniel Capps, an engineer at FRC East, received a patent award Thursday as well for development of adjustable lockable pliers.
As for Mann, a machinist from New Bern, he came up with a recoilless bucking bar system that lessens the impact of vibrations on workers when they are using an air hammer to install rivets.
�When the ergonomics man came up to me seven years ago, he wanted to make something that would relieve the tension in artisans� hands from bucking rivets because it was causing a lot of carpal tunnel and rigid finger, and it was costing the government a lot of money,� Mann said. �That�s from the shock to your hands all the time.�
Mann added a spring to the bucking bar that took a lot of the shock out of the receiving end of riveting.
�I put the math together, saw what kind of pressure it was, ordered the springs for it and put it together. It�s a real simple tool,� Mann said.
Mann got the idea in part from his work manufacturing cannons, which use recoil springs.
�Some of those guys are bucking hundreds of rivets every day, so they�re getting the vibrations in both hands,� Mann said. �All that bucking gets amplified back into the hands. This alleviates that.�
Capps� pliers were designed to be used on a composite hex head on integral braid socks used to eliminate chafing problems in wiring within the vibration-prone V-22 Osprey. Capps realized that there were nine sizes of hex heads in the aircraft that required nine tools. Capps developed a single, adjustable tool that fits all nine sizes.
There are 21 to 25 hex fittings on the V-22, and it is believed that the tool will be a time-saver for workers at FRC East and out in the fleet.
Capps said that saving time in work repairs and maintenance on the Osprey helps reduce costs.
�We�re always looking for a better way of doing things,� Capps said. �That�s why Cherry Point is here, to look for a better way to equip the fleet. They�re the ones putting their lives on the line.�
Capps has worked at FRC East for 33 years, 22 of which have been on the V-22.
�The whole time I�ve been on the V-22 program my biggest concern was the fleet, getting the right tools, the right components and getting wiring out there that will not cause them heartaches and headaches, 24-7,� he said. �That�s what the depot�s here for. That�s why the engineering fleet support teams are here, to make their jobs easier so they can do what they are meant to do, go fly aircraft and not just do maintenance on aircraft.�
Capps said that the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter uses composite hex fittings exclusively, and there is the potential for the new tool to someday be used on that aircraft as well.

Anger And Fear
Sep 25 2011
I've written a lot about love, laughter, and heartache on my blog, but not much about anger or fear. Those are hard emotions to write about. Most of us were taught not to let our anger show and that we should control it. But we've seen a few people in our life and on TV lose their cool. We're told there's no reason to be afraid. There's no such thing as ghosts. There's nothing under your bed. It seems to me that those two feelings/emotions have big hairy monsters in our minds associated with them. They can sometimes be more irrational than real because most of us are not being chased by sharks or big hungry bears, but when we feel these emotions, they feel so real! They can paralyze us. They cause stress. They cause health problems. They can make us think we are not good enough or not worthy of love and happiness.
Entrepreneurs and pretty much anyone who has a job and/or is a full time parent face these demons every day. It's how we deal with it and how we treat others that counts. Compassion can alleviate fears. Empathy and encouragement can help people achieve things they never thought they could. Fear and Anger can make people get things done (e.g., dark ages, torture, and slaves who built the Egyptian pyramids) but it can make them sick and unhappy at the same time. It can cause a ripple effect on society, on their spouse, or their kids. If people are unhappy at work, it has been shown they are more abusive at home and don't treat their co-workers well. I believe encouraging, loving environments create exponentially better outcomes. Is it because I'm a woman? I don't think so. I think Martin Luther King, Mother Teresa, many great business leaders, and Gandhi felt the same way. Maybe they don't get as much media attention but go find the places in your city that are consistently voted the best places to work and you'll see successful businesses with great leaders who care, trust, and believe in their employees.
We are all flawed humans, but the thing that keeps us connected is empathy and love. Without that connection and belief in each other, we might as well be on an island alone or dead. We can start businesses and scare people to do what we think they should, but the best will leave because in the modern world they have other choices than to be beaten & downtrodden and to lay bricks while being whipped. You'll end up with "yes men/women" who are too afraid to tell you what's really going on because they are scared for their livelihoods. But you'll be surprised at the psychology of some of us humans because a lot of us don't realize our genius. I'll leave you with a quote from Jeffry Fry's daily email he sent out July 16, 2011 that's still in my inbox and printed & pasted to the pillar near my cube at work:
"Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing it is stupid." –Albert EinsteinAuthor: Aruni | Filed under: entrepreneur, entrepreneurship | Tags: albert einstein, anger, compassion, empathy, fear, gandhi, jeffrey fry, laughter, love, martin luther kind, mother teresa | 4 Comments »

irssi, bitlbee, jabber, openfire and ASCII Control Characters
I've recently been hit by an issue where irssi (and bitlbee, and openfire) have been leaking non-printable ASCII Control characters to a Jabber chat room.
This has been triggering an XML Parse Error in Pidgin clients, which causes them to disconnect and reconnect to the Jabber server. This is especially annoying when the server replays chat history to clients. You end up with all Pidgin clients unable to stay connected to your Jabber server. Oops.
I've written a quick hacky script for irssi that filters out non-ASCII characters, so they're not sent to the server and that warns you that you're doing somethig wrong:
use Irssi; use strict; use vars qw($VERSION %IRSSI); $VERSION = "0.1"; %IRSSI = ( authors => 'Andy Millar', name => 'filter_charset', description => 'Filter Outbount Charset', license => 'none', url => 'none', ); Irssi::signal_add_first 'send text', 'filter_charset'; sub filter_charset { my ($text, $server, $win_item) = @_; if ($text =~ m/[^[:print:]]/) { Irssi::active_win->print("Cannot send line - invalid characters: ##$text##", MSGLEVEL_CLIENTCRAP); Irssi::signal_stop(); } }
Put this in ~/.irssi/scripts/filter_charset.pl and then /load filter_charset.pl.

Can Nigerian President Buhari Live Up to the Election Hype?
President Muhammadu Buhari and his party, the All Progressive Congress, rode to power on the promise to fight corruption, restructure the Nigerian economy, and reduce poverty.
Riding on the slogan of "change," and the perceived discipline and incorruptible disposition of Buhari, Nigerians believed that the messianic personality who will fight corruption, promote economic and infrastructural development, had indeed been found.

Interviews with Nutritional Experts: Health Risks from Processed Foods and Trans Fats: Part I
Interview with Dr. Mary Enig
as interviewed by Richard A. Passwater PhD
Mary G. Enig, Ph.D., a nutritionist widely known for her research on the nutritional aspects of fats and oils, is a consultant, clinician, and the Director of the Nutritional Sciences Division of Enig Associates, Inc., Silver Spring, Maryland. She received her PhD in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Maryland, College Park in 1984, taught a graduate course in nutrient-drug interactions for the University's Graduate Program in Nutritional Sciences, and held a Faculty Research Associateship from 1984 through 1991 with the Lipids Research Group in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. Dr. Enig is a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition, and a member of the American Institute of Nutrition. Her many years of experience as a "bench chemist" in the analysis of food fats and oils, provides a foundation for her active roles in food labeling and composition issues at the federal and state levels.
Dr. Enig is a Consulting Editor to the "Journal of the American College of Nutrition" and formerly served as a Contributing Editor to "Clinical Nutrition." She has published 14 scientific papers on the subject of food fats and oils, several chapters on nutrition for books, and presented over 35 scientific papers on food and nutrition topics. She is the President of the Maryland Nutritionists Association, past President of the Coalition of Nutritionists of Maryland and was appointed by the Governor in 1986 to the Maryland State Advisory Council on Nutrition and served as the Chairman of the Health Subcommittee until the Council was disbanded in 1988.
I first learned of Dr. Mary Enig's research from a 1978 report in the Federation Proceedings. We met shortly after that, and since I had written about
fats several times in Supernutrition, we had common concerns about the effect that these
fats from processed foods were having. We were both concerned particularly about the misconception that processed margarine was better than natural butter.
In several visits by Dr. Mary Enig to the Solgar Nutritional Research Center I quickly learned that she was an exacting scientist who is not afraid to speak out and who supports good nutrition, not just going along with the establishment's party line. While studying for her Ph.D. at the University of Maryland, often she would first respond with the "correct" answer that was expected, and then she would explain why new research indicated "alternatives," such as optimal vitamin and mineral nourishment, provided a better answer. It is not easy be credentialed by the "system," while your own research shows other facts.
In part I of my interview with Dr. Enig, we will discuss the harm caused by partially-hydrogenated fats that are present in processed foods. In Part II, we will discuss how partially-hydrogenated fats increase heart disease and cancer risks, and how the processed food industry tries to suppress this information.
In her 1978 report, Dr. Enig challenged the speculation concerning the relationship of dietary fat and cancer causation. She concluded that correlations between the increase in per capita dietary fat intake and total cancer mortality over a sixty-year period show significant positive correlations for
total fat and vegetable fat, and negative correlation for animal fat.
That is the cancer rate is higher when the amount of vegetable fat or total fat is higher in the diet, but the cancer rate is lower when there there is more animal fat in the diet. These findings were unpopular then as they are today, but they are still correct. It is convenient to blame everything on red meat and animal fat, and believe that vegetable oil is the great dietary salvation -- even if it is partially hydrogenated. At least that is what the vegetable oil people would like everyone to believe.
Now, we are not saying that lots of dietary fat is good for you and that vegetables are not good. Eating vegetables, fruits and other whole foods is very desirable. However, that is not the same as eating partially-hydrogenated vegetable oils. Americans eat too much fat (especially partially hydrogenated vegetable oils) and not enough fruits and vegetables. The problem is that the typical American is not eating enough
whole foods
, but instead, is eating too much partially-hydrogenated vegetable oil -- a fractionated food -- that has been made into "funny foods" such as margarine or added to baked goods. Such "funny foods" are far differentthan real whole foods.
Hydrogenation ruins the nutritional value of vegetable oils! Why would anyone want to ruin the nutrition value of vegetable oils? The purpose of hydrogenation is to solidify an oil so that it can be made to resemble real foods such as butter. The hydrogenation process imparts desirable features such as spreadability, texture, "mouth feel," and increased shelf life to naturally liquid vegetable oils. In the hydrogenation process, vegetable oil is reacted under pressure with hydrogen gas at 250 - 400
F for several hours in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel or platinum. However, this industrial process cannot control where the hydrogen atoms are added to the "unsaturated" double bonds. Randomly adding hydrogen atoms to polyunsaturated fats converts natural food components into many compounds, some of which have never seen before by man until partially hydrogenated fats were manufactured.
Some of the several dozens of altered compounds created in the manufacture of partially-hydrogenated fats are "
" fatty acids. Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats, much like amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Other new compounds accidentally synthesized include fatty acids having double bonds translocated to new and un-natural positions, and various molecular fragments. Many of these altered compounds are detrimental to health.
Since "
" fats are so detrimental to our health. permit me to briefly review the relevance of distinguishing between "
" and
" fats before chatting with Dr. Enig. Recently, in the September issue, in the interview with Dr. Jim Clark and Mr. Lance Schilipalius, we discussed "
" isomers of carotenoids. "Trans" means the same thing here. "Cis" and "trans" isomers refer to how identical atoms are added to double bonds. When the atoms are added to the same side of the double bond, the compound is called "
" and the molecule is bent because of the crowding of the atoms on one side. When the atoms are added on opposite sides of the double bond, the compound is called "
" and molecule is "space-balanced" and straightened. The shape of a molecule is important because enzymes and their substrates -- the molecules enzymes act upon -- must fit together like a key in a lock.
Dr. Enig will discuss this during the interview, but the important thing to remember is that natural polyunsaturated fatty acids are "
" compounds and are bent. Partial hydrogenation produces many un-natural "
" fats which are straight and not intended for use in the human body.
You don't have to understand the difference between "
" and "
" but it is important that you know that there is a difference because, as Dr. Enig will explain, it can affect your health.
Dr. Enig, a lot of people are interested in "
" fats now. You have been researching them since 1977. How are
fats harmful to us?
: More than a decade of research at the University of Maryland, as well as research that was being done at other institutions, showed that consumption of
fatty acids from partially hydrogenated (a process that adds hydrogen to solidify or harden) vegetable fats and oils had many adverse effects in health areas such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, immunity, reproduction and lactation, and obesity. It is rather easy today to come up with a long list of these adverse effects from the published research done by many scientists around the world, as well as the researchers at the University of Maryland.
The reason there is so much recent interest is that during the past three years there has been a number of major research reports published in prestigious medical journals that caught the attention of the press. These and earlier reports had shown, for example, that consumption of
fatty acids lower the "good" HDL cholesterol in a dose response manner (the higher the
fat level in the diet, the lower the HDL level in the blood) and raise the atherogenic lipoprotein(a) in humans as well as raising the "bad" LDL cholesterol and total blood cholesterol levels by 20-30 milligram-percent. These studies have usually been shown in independent non-industry studies. Perhaps the most significant event though was the report from researchers at Harvard University, who evaluated more than 85,000 women in a long-term prospective study and found that there was a significantly higher intake of
fatty acids in those individuals who developed heart disease.
As regards to the question of cancer,
fatty acids induce adverse alterations in the activities of the important enzyme system that metabolizes chemical carcinogens and drugs (medications), i. e., the mixed-function oxidase cytochromes P-448/450. The initial research in this area was done by the Maryland group in collaboration with the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, and was followed by the more extensive evaluation that I did for my Ph.D. dissertation; several groups around the country and the world also reported the same or similar results. Several groups around the world reported a higher intake of partially hydrogenated fats in those individuals who have developed cancer.
Both primate and human studies have shown inappropriate handling of blood sugar;
fatty acids decrease the response of the red blood cell to insulin, thus having a potentially undesirable effect in diabetics. The primate research was initiated at Maryland in collaboration with the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the National Institutes of Health, and the human research is from the University of Pittsburgh and quite recent.
One major concern is that
fatty acids adversely affect immune response by lowering efficiency of B cell response and increasing proliferation of T cells. This was shown in research done at Maryland using a mouse model and although there are reports from clinicians that there are problems of immune dysfunction in humans it still needs to be evaluated systematically in humans.
Recent research from outside the U. S. has indicated that
fatty acids interfere with reproductive attributes and of concern is the finding that
fatty acids lower the amount of cream (volume) in milk from lactating females in all species studies including humans, thus lowering the overall quality available to the infant. The latter research was done at Maryland by my colleague Dr. Beverly Teter.
fatty acids cause alterations to numerous physiological functions of biological membranes that are known to be critical for cell homeostasis, e.g., appropriate membrane transport and membrane fluidity, and these fatty acid isomers produce alterations in adipose cell size, cell number, lipid class and fatty acid composition.
: Now that
fats are becoming of more interest, the term may still just be a buzz word to many of our readers. Would you explain just what are
fats? Where do they come from? How are they formed?
: To understand what
fatty acids are you have to understand what fatty acids are. Fatty acids are basically chains of carbon with a carboxyl group (COOH) at one end that can react (e.g., combine) with another molecule. When fatty acids are in fats or oils they are combined with glycerol in the proportions of three fatty acid molecules to one glycerol molecule and they form triacylglycerols or in common terminology, triglycerides.
Fatty acids come in different chain lengths ranging from three carbons long (propionic acid) to 24 carbons long (lignoceric acid). These fatty acids are either "saturated" (with an adequate number of hydrogen atoms) and chemically stable, or they are "unsaturated" (missing adequate hydrogens) and chemically unstable. If a fatty acid is missing two hydrogens, it is called a monounsaturated fatty acid, and in place of the two hydrogens, the adjacent carbons "double" bond to each other. If the fatty acid is missing four or six or more hydrogens, it is called a polyunsaturated fatty acid, and it is even more unstable than the monounsaturated fatty acid. Because the double bonds in naturally occurring plant oil fatty acids are curved with a "cis" configuration, the fatty acids cannot pack into a crystal form at normal temperatures so their presence produces a liquid oil. Saturated fatty acids have a straight configuration and can pack into a solid crystal at normal temperatures.
If the unsaturated fatty acids are altered by partial hydrogenation to straighten the chains so that they have some of the physical packing properties of saturated fatty acids they have had their "cis" double bond changed to a
double bond and they turn a technically mostly unsaturated oil into a solid fat. The
fatty acids are the same length and weight as the original "cis" fatty acid they were formed from, and although they have the same number of carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens they are shaped differently in space. The term that is used is that they are "isomers." The problem arises when a large number of the
fatty acids are consumed from foods and they are deposited in those parts of the cell membranes that are supposed to have either saturated fatty acids or "cis" unsaturated fatty acids; under these circumstances the
fatty acids essentially foul up the "machinery."
Although the
fatty acids are chemically "monounsaturated" or "polyunsaturated" they are considered so different from the "cis" monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fatty acids that they cannot be legally designated, e.g., monounsaturated for purposes of labeling. Most of the
fatty acids produced by the partial hydrogenation process are chemically monounsaturates.
There have always been small amounts of one kind of
fatty acids in the human diet from the ruminant fats (dairy, sheep, goat, deer, buffalo, antelope, etc.) because the microorganisms in the rumen try to get rid of the polyunsaturated fatty acids that are found in the plant foods eaten by these animals. In the early days of
fatty acid research, the researchers assumed that the
fatty acids found in ruminant fats were no different than those produced by partial hydrogenation in the factory. But the studies showed that not only was the amount much smaller (e.g., the fat in butter might be 2-3% of the ruminant
), the effect on the "machinery" in the cell membranes was not different than without the
. Yet all studies feeding the
produced by partially hydrogenating the vegetable oils showed the adverse effect on the cell "machinery."
: Why are
fats a problem?
: The various mechanisms through which the
fatty acids disrupt function are related in part to the ability of
fatty acids to inhibit the function of membrane related enzymes such as the delta-6 desaturase resulting in decreased conversion of e.g., linoleic acid to gamma-linolenic acid or arachidonic acid; interference with the necessary conversion of omega-3 fatty acids to their elongated tissue omega-3 fatty acids; and escalation of the adverse effects of essential fatty acid deficiency. This latter effect was shown especially by the work of Dr. Holman and his colleagues at the Hormel Institute at the University of Minnesota, the other effects have been shown by many researchers including the University of Maryland researchers.
: What were your early findings and what got you interested in this area of research?
: My initial published research in 1978 when I was at the University of Maryland showed that
fatty acids, which were increasing in the food supply at the time and which had not been catalogued in any of the food data tables, were the very factors that explained the positive statistical relationship between the increase in cancer mortality and vegetable fat consumption in the U. S.
It was clear from the literature that once the
fatty acids were identified as products of partial hydrogenation and studies were engaged in, there were a number of earlier researchers who questioned the biological safety of the
fatty acids viz a viz their relationship to both cancer and heart disease. In fact, Dr. Ancel Keys had originally claimed that the partially hydrogenated vegetable oils with their
fatty acids were the culprits in heart disease.
This was in 1958, and the edible oils industry was very swift in their squelching of that information; they shifted the emphasis to "saturated" fat and started the phoney attack on meat and dairy fats.
: What have others added to your findings?
: As you have noted in some of your writings, we at the University of Maryland were not the first to raise the issue of
fatty acids and adverse health effects; Dr. Fred Kummerow from the University of Illinois, Dr. George Mann from Vanderbilt University, and Dr. Edward Pinckney with the American Medical Association had sounded the alarm many years before my plunge into the foray. In fact, I had drawn heavily on the research findings of Dr. Kummerow and the informative writing of Dr. Mann when I first started to investigate what was known about health effects of
fatty acids at the time. Our research findings have been duplicated by others, but more importantly other independent researchers have extended and explained many of our findings and concerns.
: I remember how the processed food industry tried to suppress your early research. In Part II, let's discuss the techniques used against you and how you overcame them, and then we can more fully discuss the relationship of various fats to heart disease and cancer.

- Initial Science Plan of the Monsoon Asia Integrated Regional Study
- This Initial Science Plan identifies key environmental changes that affect the people and societies of the regions of Asia affected by monsoons. The plan pinpoints people and environments which are most vulnerable to monsoon damage. The plan ends with a reflection on important scientific issues and lists a number of future actions for the Monsoon Asia Integrated Regional Study.
- Report of Planning Workshop on MAIRS Mountain Zone Implementation
- Monsoon Asia Integrated Regional Study (MAIRS) is an IRS research program over monsoon Asia under START and the Earth System Science Partnership (ESSP). It was established to address questions about the coupled human and environment system in the monsoon Asia region. The vision of MAIRS is to significantly advance understanding of the interactions between the human and natural components of the overall environment in the monsoon Asian region and implications for the global earth system, in order to support strategies for sustainable development. Regional-scale studies of global change provide the knowledge base for undertaking vulnerability analyses, identification of hotspots of risk and studies of environmental degradation which are crucial for the sustainable development. Regions may manifest significantly different environmental dynamics, and changes in regional biophysical, biogeochemical and anthropogenic components may produce considerably different consequences for the earth system at the global scale. Regions are not closed systems and thus the linkages between regional changes and the global earth system are crucial. This specific report focuses on Planning Workshop on MAIRS Mountain Zone Implementation that held in China. Integrated Regional Studies (IRSs) should have relevance for people living in the regions and should provide a sound scientific basis for the sustainable development of the countries in the regions, and IRSs are also important from an earth system science perspective.

Every tattoo tells a story, and for Ryan Cabrera, his is one of a special kind of intrigue — because his ink of choice is the face of a fellow Hollywood hunk named Ryan — Ryan Gosling.
"The best part is he [the tattoo artist] did it portrait style, so it looks like the president in silhouette," the "On the Way Down" singer said in a recent interview with the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "I'm very proud of it. I consider it the Bentley of tattoos."
Not that Cabrera, 30, has a man-crush on the Gangster Squad actor. On the contrary, he explains, he got the unusual ink in unexpected fashions with his pals.
"We like to play a game called tattoo roulette," he began, explaining how he came to have Gosling's face permanently etched onto his right calf several months ago. "We blindfold each other: 'You get to pick a tattoo for me, and I get to pick a tattoo for you.' And you don't get to see it till they're both done."
Cabrera added that though he didn't know what tattoo his friend had chosen for him, he did have to insist on keeping the ink off his arms, which he reserves for "real tattoos."
Any ink that he earns as a result of losing tattoo roulette are instead relegated to his legs, "because I just think that is funny."
The pop rocker — whose exes include Ashlee Simpson and Audrina Patridge — has numerous other tattoos on his body, including an entire sleeve on his left arm, and an interpretation of the Beatles' famous Abbey Road album cover proudly displayed on his right forearm.
But despite calling it the "Bentley of tattoos," Cabrera isn't in any rush to show his Gosling tattoo to the 32-year-old actor anytime soon.
"No, no, no, I'm not showing it to Ryan," the singer said with a laugh.

Have a problem.
I've installed nnCron on Windows 7 32-bit as app (not service), I added "Run as admin" attributes to all the *.exe files.
Then, I'm trying to create a simple task - start "notepad.exe" as specific user, e.g. as "Administrator"
From the nnCron GUI I set "Run as user" check box and put credentials of my local Administrator user.
After starting the task I get a message like - Can't get logged user token.
What should be done to solve the problem?

ViewRegistry essential
ViewRegistry handles the association between model and view
types in Atom. We call this association a View Provider. As in, for a given
model, this class can provide a view via ::getView, as long as the
model/view association was registered via ::addViewProvider
If you're adding your own kind of pane item, a good strategy for all but the simplest items is to separate the model and the view. The model handles application logic and is the primary point of API interaction. The view just handles presentation.
Note: Models can be any object, but must implement a
getTitle() function
if they are to be displayed in a Pane
View providers inform the workspace how your model objects should be presented in the DOM. A view provider must always return a DOM node, which makes HTML 5 custom elements an ideal tool for implementing views in Atom.
You can access the
ViewRegistry object via
::addViewProvider([modelConstructor], createView)
Add a provider that will be used to construct views in the workspace's view layer based on model objects in its model layer.
Text editors are divided into a model and a view layer, so when you interact
with methods like
atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor() you're only going
to get the model object. We display text editors on screen by teaching the
workspace what view constructor it should use to represent them:
atomviewsaddViewProvider TextEditortextEditorElement =textEditorElementinitializetextEditortextEditorElement
Constructor Function for your model. If a constructor is given, the
Factory Function that is passed an instance of your model and must return a subclass of
|Return values
Returns a Disposable on which
Get the view associated with an object in the workspace.
If you're just using the workspace, you shouldn't need to access the view layer, but view layer access may be necessary if you want to perform DOM manipulation that isn't supported via the model API.
View Resolution Algorithm
The view associated with the object is resolved using the following sequence
- Is the object an instance of
HTMLElement? If true, return the object.
- Does the object have a method named
getElementthat returns an instance of
HTMLElement? If true, return that value.
- Does the object have a property named
elementwith a value which is an instance of
HTMLElement? If true, return the property value.
- Is the object a jQuery object, indicated by the presence of a
jqueryproperty? If true, return the root DOM element (i.e.
- Has a view provider been registered for the object? If true, use the provider to create a view associated with the object, and return the view.
If no associated view is returned by the sequence an error is thrown.
|Return values
Returns a DOM element.

Poor Cinders is trapped at home with a mountain of housework to do. But if you help her with some 'tidying' pics of your own, she can make a clean sweep of the place and run off in search of her Prince Charming.
Here's a great way to enjoy a bit of extra fun at ROH's BP Summer Big Screen performance of Cinderella on July 13 2011. Launched last Monday, youshallgototheball.com is a story game that allows you to help put together a unique animated Cinderella story that will reach its conclusion at the interval on Big Screen night.
Over the coming days there'll be chances to share photos, hunt for Prince Charming crowns, perform magic tricks on pumpkins, win prizes and show off your own pair of magic slippers on the night (well, your best party shoes anyway). And everything you choose to share with Cinders stands the chance of appearing in the final big YouShallGoToTheBall movie to be played on the Big Screens on July 13th.
Today, Cinders is desperate for photos of 'tidying' - anything from made beds to washed up pots to sorted button collections. She needs 50 pics by end of play today if possible, so please send her what you can.
You can send your photos to @mynameiscinders on Twitter or post them to the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/mynameiscinders. Here's a selection of images people have already sent in to inspire you. So get tidying!

Allis-Chalmers & Siemens-Allis Electrical Control Parts
Specializing in hard to find contacts and coils for Allis-Chalmers, Siemens-Allis and Furnas:
Allis-Chalmers and Siemens-Allis Electrical Controls and Repair Parts:
Allis-Chalmers manufactured some of the most durable and effective electrical control equipment used in the United States for over 75 years. Due to their rugged design, much of their equipment is still in service today. As economic difficulties overtook the Allis-Chalmers conglomerate, a partnership was formed with Siemens AG in 1978 creating the company known as Siemens-Allis.
In 1985 Siemens AG bought out the remainder of Allis-Chalmers' interest in their partnership and established Siemens Energy and Automation. Since that time, (1985), Siemens has replaced or obsoleted much of the Allis-Chalmers and Siemens-Allis equipment they owned.
AC Control Direct has specialized in Allis-Chalmers, Siemens-Allis and Siemens control equipment for over 10 years, but we are not Allis-Chalmers, Siemens-Allis, or Siemens. We have many of the coils and contacts and rectifiers new in stock and numerous resources to support non-stocked items.
