A VERY sexy Valentine's Day! Lara Bingle posts steamy snap of herself kissing beau Sam Worthington while showing off some side boob in low cut tank
They have enjoyed a whirlwind romance over the past several months with rumours of a recent marriage even emerging.
But this Valentine's Day marks the first for Lara Bingle and Sam Worthington, and the Aussie swimwear model and designer has celebrated by posting a very sexy shot of the pair on her Instagram page.
In the image, the couple are locked in a steamy embrace, with the 27-year-old kissing the Avatar star hard on the head.
A very Happy Valentine's Day! Lara Bingle posted a very sexy snap of herself kissing Sam Worthington on her Instagram page on Friday
The curvy star also shows off a lot of side boob in a low cut black tank top that appears to be soaked from water while Sam appears to almost bury his head in her chest.
It seems that the picture was taken on the beach, perhaps in the Maldives where the couple recently enjoyed a romantic getaway.
Lara added a romantic and poetic caption to the picture, simply writing: 'My Heart. His Heart.'
A little more PG: The 27-year-old had earlier posted this artsy shot of a rose
The couple's relationship has gotten quite serious, quite quickly considering they have only been dating since September last year.
Ever since, they have travelled together in Paris, Amsterdam, Western Australia, and, of course, the Maldives, among other destinations.
Lara and Sam are currently in New York, in town for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, but according to Lara herself she'll be staying on long after fashion week is over.
More art: She also shared a snap of some clever graffiti on a wall
'I'm here to stay!' she replied to New York based photographer and brother of Naomi Watts, Ben Watts, who requested a photo shoot with her on Instagram. 'Catch up this week?'
Lara revealed her plans to 'quit' Australia to Woman's Day magazine, last month.
It appears her boyfriend of around five months is behind the move, Lara telling Woman's Day that her beau 'hates' the paparazzi attention the couple recieves while in Australia.
'I don't like the attention. We [Sam and I] don't get any peace,' she told the magazine.
'Sydney's my home but I don't like it. I can't even go to the supermarket without getting papped... Sam hates it.'
Indeed the 37-year-old Australian actor couldn't help but scowl even when photographed while sitting front row at fashion week.
A spokesperson for Lara said she is looking to spend more time in New York but will be back on Australian shores in March to promote her Lara Bingle for Cotton On Body collection.
By each other's side: The couple, who have been dating since September, are currently in New York for Fashion Week but could be making the city their permanent home

Samuel Barrientos, 36, of Gurdon, was sentenced Thursday to five years and eight months in prison for the distribution of methamphetamine.
Barrientos's prosecution is related to a case involving three other Gurdon men who pleaded guilty on March 7 to the federal charges.
U.S. District Court Judge Susan O. Hickey handed down the sentence in United States District Court According to court records, beginning on March 29, 2012, the Drug Enforcement Administration conducted an investigation in Gurdon and contacted Barrientos to arrange a drug transaction through the use of a confidential source. Barrientos agreed to sell a quantity of methamphetamine to the source for $1,700. The transaction took place on May 23, 2012, at a residence in Gurdon. The DEA crime lab confirmed that the drug sold was 100 percent pure and contained 23.6 grams of actual methamphetamine.
Barrientos was originally charged in a three-count indictment returned by a Grand Jury for the Western District of Arkansas on August 22, 2012. On November 30, 2012, he pleaded guilty to count three of the indictment.
This case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration. United States Attorney Conner Eldridge and Assistant United States Attorney Benjamin Wulff prosecuted the case for the United States.

Pretty much all of my friends are ass aficionados and it usually becomes the topic of discussion within minutes of us hanging out together. This time was no different when Derrick told me about a new chick he met at a bar. He wasnt sure but he was willing to gamble she was 40 plus. She just barely made it once we measured but she was so hot it really didnt matter her ass barely broke 40. I think the final number was 40 inches and a couple of centimeters. So not too much on the plus side but she sure as shit made up for it with her performance. You guys will not be disappointed and actually happy I didnt throw this one back.

Everyday Heroes: The Man Who Ran Toward Fire
A stranger saves an elderly woman and her dog from raging flames.
They'd just finished lunch at a café in Orange County—Chuck Rees, his wife, Laurie, and her mother, Ann Marie Effert. Then Rees, 51, spotted smoke rising from a hill a few blocks away. "Let's get up there!" he cried.
Keeping the dark plumes in sight, the trio drove through winding, unfamiliar streets and eventually came upon a white two-story house with black smoke billowing from the back.
Rees pulled his car alongside a couple standing on the curb in front of the house. "Anybody in there?" he asked them.
"I knocked, but nobody answered," the man said. "We've called 911."
Rees threw his car into park. "Chuck, don't," Laurie said, although she knew he wouldn't listen. He'd once dropped the receiver of a pay phone in the middle of a conversation with her to chase a purse snatcher.
He pointed to the flames coursing up the back of the house. The woman looked at him, frightened.
"Laurie, I've got to," he said, and jumped out of the car.
Rees ran up the driveway along the right side of the house, hoping to find the source of the fire and put it out with a garden hose. A locked gate blocked his way into the backyard. He considered climbing over it, but a large Labrador retriever mix appeared on the other side and bared its teeth at him. That means somebody lives here, Rees thought.
He sprinted to the front door and tried the handle; it was locked. He pounded on the door; no one answered. Then he moved along the left side of the house, past what looked like a small addition. He grabbed onto a chain-link fence and pulled it back far enough for him to squeeze through. When he scaled a six-foot-high cinder blockwall just inside the fence, another large Lab mix stood waiting for him; this one was wagging its tail.
As he scanned the back of the house for a hose, Rees noticed a small steel door in the addition. He banged on it with his fist. "Is anybody in there?" he shouted. "Your house is on fire!" No one answered. He banged on the door again.
Soon he heard a woman's faint voice from the other side of the door. "Hello?" she said.

Arizona Cardinals
ProFootballTalk.com: Tim Tebow is an option for Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals have a huge problem on their hands at the quarterback position this offseason, and Mike Florio of NBC Sports' ProFootballTalk.com has a suggestion to help solve their problems under center.
"They want Kevin Kolb to stick around but I think they have to look elsewhere," Florio said. "I actually heard at one point, that maybe, the Arizona Cardinals would be interested in Tim Tebow, that was last year."
It may have been last year, but Florio thinks Tebow should still remain an option for Bruce Arians and Co.
"We'll see what happens this year, whether he's in the mix," said Florio. "But I'll tell you Tim Tebow is better than any of the guys they have on their roster.
"I know a lot of people out there don't like Tim Tebow as a football player, but you let him do his thing and he could be good enough, better than what the Cardinals have had in recent years at the quarterback position. The quarterback position has been awful."
True, the Cardinals got miserable play from their QBs last season, but it's tough to see Tebow as the answer. His only season in the Big Apple saw him complete 6 of 8 passes for 39 yards, and when the Jets replaced Mark Sanchez at QB they turned to 2011 seventh round pick Greg McElroy.
For his career, Tebow has completed 47.9 percent of his passes for 2,422 yards and 17 touchdowns. He's been intercepted nine times and run for 989 yards and 12 scores.
And while he was recently in Arizona working out, it's quite frankly difficult to see the Cardinals, who are actually looking to find a good quarterback, choosing Tebow.

This invention relates to a patterned aluminum and aluminum oxide layer on a substrate, and more particularly relates to a method for forming such a pattern by the selective oxidation of an aluminized web which results in a web covered with aluminum and aluminum oxide in which the pattern of the aluminum is determined by the application of a hydrophobic ink.
Thin patterned films of metal on flexible substrates are useful for many applications. They are especially required for producing inexpensive flexible circuits and also find use in optical films and electronic display devices.
One of the least expensive ways of generating a thin flexible patterned aluminum substrate is to start with an aluminized web and then selectively remove the aluminum from the web. Typically this is done by patterning a resist onto the web and then etching the resist free areas or by depositing a caustic etch in the negative of the desired aluminum pattern and then neutralizing the etch once the desired pattern has been achieved.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,398,994 discloses the formation of a pattern on aluminized web by selective etching of aluminum. In that patent, the pattern is formed on an aluminized polymer film by printing the aluminum surface with a pattern of a caustic resistant masking material such as a water-insoluble resin, contacting the surface with a dilute solution of warm caustic to dissolve the exposed aluminum, and washing the spent solution from the film. While this method produces a patterned aluminum film, the uncovered areas are dissolved leaving bare polymer film. This will result in the water vapor barrier properties of the etched areas being equivalent to that of the uncoated substrate.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,824,456 discloses a method and composition for forming a metal oxide thin film pattern by coating a composition consisting of one or more hydrolitic metallic compounds and a water generating agent which frees water under the effect of UV radiation. The thin film metal oxide pattern is formed by coating the aforementioned composition onto the substrate, irradiating with UV radiation to form an image on the photosensitive film coating and then removing the non-exposed portion by developing in water or alcohol and then heating the substrate to convert the remaining film into a metal oxide. While this method produces a metal oxide thin film pattern, it requires the use of reactive chemicals and does not result in an aluminum pattern in the unreacted areas.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,560,445 (Hoover et al.) discloses a process for fabricating metallic patterns such as resonant RF-tuned circuits on a polyolefin film. The film is processed by being passed through a solvent plasticizing bath, an etch bath, a conditioning bath, and a catalyst bath and it then printed and electroless metal is deposited. This method does create a metallic pattern, but uses many steps with undesirable, reactive chemistries and does not have metal oxide in the non-metal areas to improve vapor and moisture properties of the film.
There remains a need for a method to pattern a conductive film and easily convert the area unmasked by hydrophobic material to metal oxide while keeping the patterned area conductive thereby retaining the water vapor barrier properties associated with a fully continuous metal film.
It is an object of the invention to provide a flexible conductive patterned substrate.
It is another object to provide a circuit on a polymeric substrate with low vapor transmission rate.
It is a further object to provide a conductive patterned substrate with transparent non-conductive regions.
These and other objects of the invention are accomplished by a patterned device comprising a substrate covered by a pattern of metal and oxidized metal surrounding said pattern of metal.
The invention provides flexible conductive patterned substrate with a low vapor transmission rate and transparent non-conductive regions.
The invention has numerous advantages compared to current patterning techniques used to construct a flexible conductive patterned surface. This invention produces a patterned metal and complimentary metal oxide pattern by coating a pattern of hydrophobic ink on a pre-existing metal layer coated on a substrate. The substrate is then immersed into a warm water bath, where warm water is defined in this application as water at a temperature of 80� C. or greater; the warm water converts those areas not covered by the hydrophobic ink into metal oxide. The invention provides an inexpensive way to obtain patterned metal films by starting with a continuous metal film that has been applied to any one of several different types of substrates, including polymeric substrates. Some prior art methods for creating an aluminum patterned substrate are limited to silicon or glass because the chemistries for etching are incompatible with polymer substrates. The invention also allows for a patterned film to be obtained from a continuous metallic film without sacrificing the beneficial barrier properties that arise from have a continuous inorganic coating. These and other advantages will be apparent from the detailed description below.
The term "substrate", in this application is defined as the layer supporting the patterned metal and metal oxide layer. The substrate 3 shown in
The term "pattern" means any predetermined arrangement whether regular or random. In some embodiments of this invention a pattern of hydrophobic material is used to define the pattern of metal. The term "LCD" means any rear projection display device that utilizes liquid crystals to form the image. The term "reflector" means any material that is able to reflect light. The term "diffuse reflector" means any material that is able to reflect and diffuse specular light (light with a primary direction) to a diffuse light (light with random light direction). The term "light" means visible light. The term "total light transmission" means percentage light transmitted through the sample at 500 nm as compared to the total amount of light at 500 nm of the light source. This includes both spectral and diffuse transmission of light. The term "diffuse reflected light" means the percent diffusely reflected light at 500 nm as compared to the total amount of light at 500 nm of the light source. The term "diffuse reflected light efficiency" means the ratio of the percent diffuse reflected light at 500 nm to the percent total reflected light at 500 nm multiplied by a factor of 100. The term "polymeric film" means a film comprising polymers. The term "polymer" means homo- and co-polymers.
Preferably the metal used is aluminum, but other metals such as copper, metal alloys, or a mixture of metals could be employed that when exposed to a reactant such as warm water, converts into a thin, transparent, non-conducting layer. Aluminum is preferred because it is inexpensive, easily vacuum deposited into thin, uniform layers, is highly conductive, and in thin layers, reacts with warm or hot water to create aluminum oxide and aluminum hydroxide. In some embodiments, the oxidized metal is aluminum oxide or aluminum hydroxide, which in thin layers is clear, non-conductive, and provides a moisture and vapor barrier. Aluminum hydroxide and selected other metal hydroxides will release water when heated above 180� C. thus providing a level of fire suppression for the film of the invention. The metal is coated onto the substrate using a technique such as sputtering, evaporation or any other method used to deposit metal films. The initial metal coating thickness is preferably less than 5000 angstroms. More preferably, the metal coating is 600 to 1200 angstroms and in some embodiments the thickness is 600 to 800 angstroms. This thickness has been shown to provide sufficient conductivity and reflectivity for both electrical and optical applications while still staying below the thickness limit of metal that can be converted to oxide using warm water. The metal coating is substantially binder free (meaning that there is essentially no binders in the metal coating) and is dense, where the term "dense" in this application refers to a density of greater than 65% of bulk density and preferably greater than 75% of bulk density.
Preferably, the substrate is polymeric, transparent, and flexible. In one embodiment, the substrate is a biaxially stretched and heat stabilized polyester such as poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET), or poly(ethylene naphthalate)(PEN). PET or PEN are preferred because they have good dimensional stability and high durability. Preferred polymers also include oriented polyolefin such as polyethylene and polypropylene, cast polyolefins such as polypropylene and polyethylene, polystyrene, acetate and vinyl. Polyolefins are low in cost and have good strength and surface properties. In another embodiment of the invention the substrate comprises a cellulose acetate. Tri acetyl cellulose has both high optical transmission and low optical birefringence. In another embodiment of the invention the substrate comprises polycarbonate. Polycarbonates have high optical transmission values and are also tough and durable. Polycarbonates are available in grades for different applications and some are formulated for high temperature resistance, excellent dimensional stability, increased environmental stability, and lower melt viscosities. A flexible substrate allows for the creation of flexible circuits.
Preferably, the oxidized metal and the substrate are transparent. This enables the invention to be used in applications needing high levels of transparency outside of the metal conductive pattern, such as liquid crystal displays or any other electric display or pixilated display. Having the oxide and substrate transparent may also allow the invention to be used as Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) shielding.
The term conductive means the ability of a material to conduct electrical current. Conductivity is the reciprocal of resistivity. Resistivity is measured in units of ohms/square, this measurement is unitless A common way of referring to surface resistance of a conductive layer coated on a substrate is by the term surface electrical resistance or SER. SER is measured in units of ohms/square. Conductive materials utilized in this invention generally have resistivity of less than 30 ohms/square. This range has been shown to create patterns of metal that can be used in display applications.
Preferably, the resistivity of the oxidized metal is at least 2000 ohms/square. When the resistivity is less than 900 ohms/square, the film could not be used in some applications because of the current leakage would be too large. More preferably, the resistivity of the oxidized metal is at least 5,000 ohms/square. It has been shown that this level of resistivity produces sufficient isolation of the pattern of metal and low losses due to current leakage from the pattern of metal to the oxided metal.
Preferably, the patterned metal has a specular visible light reflectivity of at least 80%. The patterned device was measured with the Hitachi U4001 UV/Vis/NIR spectrophotometer equipped with an integrating sphere. The total transmittance spectra were measured by placing the samples at the beam port with the front surface with complex lenses towards the integrating sphere. The beam port used was 2.54 centimeters. A calibrated 99% diffusely reflecting standard (NIST-traceable) was placed at the normal sample port. The diffuse transmittance spectra were measured in like manner, but with the 99% tile removed. The diffuse reflectance spectra were measured by placing the samples at the sample port with the coated side towards the integrating sphere. The total reflectance spectra were measured by placing the samples at the sample port with the patterned layer towards the integrating sphere and the incoming light at an angle. In order to exclude reflection from a sample backing, nothing was placed behind the sample. All spectra were acquired between 350 and 800 nm. As the reflectance results are quoted with respect to the 99% tile, the values are not absolute, but would need to be corrected by the calibration report of the 99% tile. Diffuse reflectance is defined as the percent of light reflected by the sample and reflected more than 2.5 degrees.
In one embodiment, the pattern of metal has a specular visible light reflectivity of at least 80%. This means that at least 80% of the light at 500 nanometers is specularly reflected off the metal, being scattered less than 2.5 degrees as it reflects off the surface of the pattern of metal. This has been shown to provide adequate reflectivity in some applications where a specular reflection is desired such as a circuit for an LCD where it is desired to not have the light reflected off the circuit diffused.
In another embodiment the diffuse visible light reflectivity is at least 80%. This means that at least 80% of the light at 500 nanometers is specularly reflected off the metal, being scattered more than 2.5 degrees as it reflects off the surface of the pattern of metal. This has been shown to be preferable in other applications where it is preferable to have light diffusely reflected off a surface such as some recycling systems for liquid crystal displays.
The overcoat may also be a pressure sensitive adhesive. The pressure sensitive adhesive is used to adhere the patterned device onto an object, such as an ID badge, display component or other film. The adhesive preferably is coated or applied to the device. A preferred pressure sensitive adhesive is an acrylic-based adhesive. Acrylic adhesives have been shown to provide an excellent bond between plastics. The preferred adhesive materials may be applied using a variety of methods known in the art to produce thin, consistent adhesive coatings. Examples include gravure coating, rod coating, reverse roll coating and hopper coating.
The invention allows for a patterned film to be obtained from a continuous metallic film without sacrificing the beneficial barrier properties that arise from have a continuous inorganic coating. Having a continuous inorganic coating yields water and oxygen barrier properties that are important to many flexible conductive layer applications. Barrier coatings (such as the continuous inorganic coating of the invention) are used on flexible polymer films to reduce the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) and the oxygen transmission rate (OTR) through the polymer film. The most common barrier coating material is aluminum, which is deposited on rolls of polymer film (web). In some cases the metal coatings are deposited on a surface and then "transferred" to the packaging film. Layers of some inorganic oxides are used to form transparent barrier layers.
Preferably, the layer containing the metal and metal oxide has a water vapor transmission rate of less than 0.4 g/m2/day. Having a low water transmission rate is important to electronic and displays where water can corrode and damage electronics, such as displays or circuits. The water transmission rate can be determined from analytical equipment such as the MOCON W3/31 Water Vapor Permeability.
Preferably, the oxygen transmission rate through the layer containing the metal and metal oxide is less than 50 cc/(m2*day). It has been shown that this OTR is required for some electronic applications. The oxygen transmission rate can be determined from analytical equipment such as the MOCON Ox-Tran 2/21 Oxygen Permeability, MOCON Ox-Tran 2/20 Oxygen Permeability, or the Oxtran 100-twin.
In one embodiment, flexography is preferred. Flexography is an offset letterpress technique where the printing plates are made from rubber or photopolymers. The rotogravure method of printing uses a print cylinder with thousands of tiny cells that are below the surface of the printing cylinder. The ink is transferred from the cells when the print cylinder is brought into contact with the pressure sensitive label at the impression roll. Printing inks for flexography or rotogravure include solvent based inks, water based inks, and radiation cured inks all of which can be hydrophobic.
In another embodiment, inkjet printing is preferred because inkjet can used digital files and can change what is printed piece to piece. Inkjet is also relatively inexpensive, can be printed roll to roll, and can be printed quickly. Ink jet printing is a non-impact method for producing images or patterns by the deposition of ink droplets in a pixel-by-pixel manner to an element in response to digital signals. Continuous ink jet and drop-on-demand inkjet are examples of methods that may be utilized to control the deposition of ink droplets to yield the desired image.
Pens can be used to freehand the patterns using a hydrophobic ink. This is useful for simple patterns to be tested without the need for printing apparatuses.
In another embodiment, the hydrophobic material can be transferred to the metal layer using thermal transfer. Thermal transfer is preferred because the file is digital meaning that every print can be different and thermal printing can be produced roll to roll. The hydrophobic material would be coated on a thin donor web that may include release layers and/or slip layers and heat and or pressure would be used to transfer the hydrophobic material onto the metal layer of the device.
The transfer element for transferring the hydrophobic material preferably comprises a thermally activated release layer on the donor web. Thermally activated release layers are typically polymer layers having a Tg less than the transfer temperature. Upon thermal transfer, the thermally activated release layer flows, breaking the bond between the transfer layer and the base. It has been shown that when a thermally activated release layer is utilized, the Tg of the thermally activated layer should be less than the Tg of the transfer layer polymer matrix. This allows for high transfer efficiency and while maintaining the mechanical integrity of the transfer layer.
In some cases it may be preferable to leave the hydrophobic ink in place after oxidation of the unmasked areas. This may save a processing step, if it is not necessary to have a bare metallic surface on the top of the substrate film structure. In another embodiment it may be preferable to leave the ink in place so the pattern is only reflective when viewed through the bottom of the transparent substrate. In embodiments where it is important to have the pattern of metal reflective from both sides of the patterned device, the hydrophobic material is preferably removed. For example, if the hydrophobic material was a solvent-based ink, an application of rubbing alcohol will remove the thin hydrophobic layer.
Conductive patterns, consisting of lines and shapes, applied to the surface of a flexible substrate, can be utilized for a variety of flexible, conductive applications. By reducing the line width or the size of the conductive shape, the flexible pattern can be made smaller allowing for small and more efficient electrical devices. In one embodiment, the pattern of metal has an average line width of between 15 micrometers and 5 millimeters. Below 10 micrometer line width is limited by the resolution of the printing method and above 6 millimeters, there is a diminishing increase in conductivity of the lines as the width increase.
This invention produces a patterned metal and complimentary metal oxide pattern by coating a pattern of hydrophobic ink on a pre-existing metal layer coated on a substrate. The substrate is then immersed into a warm water bath and the warm water converts those areas not covered by the hydrophobic ink into metal oxide. An aqueous bath is preferred because the conversion of metal to the metal oxide is carried out without harmful or expensive solvents.
The time required for conversion will depend on the thickness of the metal and the temperature of the warm water bath. Preferably the temperature of the bath is at a temperature of 80� C. or greater, more preferably at a temperature of between 80 to 100� C., to reduce the time required to convert the metal to metal oxide. Preferably the pH of the bath is between 4 and 6 because this has been shown to be the pH at which the dissolution of the aluminum oxide by the aqueous bath will be the slowest. Because no material is removed, it is instead oxidized to aluminum oxide. The oxidation product may be aluminum hydroxide because the oxidation occurs in an aqueous environment but it can be dehydrated by heating to 180� C. or higher. The presence of the oxidized metal ensures that the moisture barrier properties inherent to an inorganic coated polymer substrate are preserved. Being able to produce patterned metal from a thin continuous film of metal allows for the manufacture of several different types of devices, including an antenna, flexible electric circuit, optical grating, transreflector, and optical mask. The invention may also be used to create formed birefringence resulting in a reflective polarizer. Electrically patterned elements on flexible substrates can be used for membrane switches, radio frequency labels, EMI shielding, flexible circuits, electrical connections, flexible photovoltaic cells and liquid crystal TFT arrays.
In one embodiment of the invention the patterned metallic areas are designed to act as a light management film. Additional layers preferably are added to the light management film that may achieve added utility. Such layers might contain tints, antistatic materials, or different void-making materials to produce sheets of unique properties.
The optical films and electronic devices of the present invention may further be laminated to rigid or semi-rigid substrates, such as, for example, glass, metal, acrylic, polyester, and other polymer backings to provide structural rigidity, weatherability, or easier handling. For example, the electronic devices of the present invention may be laminated to a thin acrylic or metal backing so that it can be stamped or otherwise formed and maintained in a desired shape.
In another embodiment of the invention, the patterned device comprises colorants. The colorants can be in the substrate, in the hydrophilic material, or printed onto the pattern of metal and/or the metal oxide. Colorants are useful because they can allow for easy visual assessment of the transferred hydrophobic material. Further the colored layer can be used to differentiate multiple utilities in patterned conductive element. For example, input conductive patterns can be colored red and output conductive patterns can be colored blue. Colorants may comprise dye, pigments or mixtures thereof.
In one embodiment of the invention, the substrate has protuberances on the surface of the substrate in which the metal is deposited. The protuberances' aspect ratio, placement, and height should be chosen such that the entire surface area of the substrate is deposited with metal. When the hydrophobic material is printed onto the metal layer using some printing techniques, such as thermal printing, the hydrophobic material will only transfer to the highest points of the substrate and not print in the areas between the protuberances. Using thermal printing techniques protuberances located on the surface of the flexible substrate allow for the hydrophobic materials to be transferred to the upper most portion of the protuberances while little or no materials are transferred to the valleys or lower most portions of the protuberances. Having an average protuberance height less than 5 micrometers does not adequately ensure that the hydrophobic materials are located on the top surface of the protuberances in all thermal transfer systems. A thermal printer requires very smooth media in which to print a uniform layer; if there are pits or low points in the media, dyes or hydrophobic materials are not transferred to that pit (or non-protrusion areas). A thermal printer (using heat and/or pressure or lasers) can transfer the hydrophobic material only to the protrusions to make them hydrophobic and leave the rest of the individual elements unprinted and therefore will convert to metal oxide when exposed to warm water.
Protuberances comprising surface microstructures are preferred. Microstructures can be tuned for different light shaping and spreading efficiencies and how much they spread light and are three-dimensional. The protuberances can be discrete or continuous and may be a circuit-like pattern. Examples of microstructures are a simple or complex lenses, prisms, pyramids, posts, linear arrays and cubes. The shape, geometry, and size of the microstructures can be changed to accomplish the desired light shaping. The surface microstructure can comprise any surface structure, whether ordered or random. The microstructure can be a linear array of prisms with pointed, blunted, or rounded tops or sections of a sphere, prisms, pyramids, and cubes. The protuberances discrete or continuous and can be random or ordered, and independent or overlapping. The sides can be sloped, curved, or straight or any combination of the three. The protuberances can be individual optical elements varying in shape, size, location or frequency over the substrate.
When the protuberances are metallized, the entire structure, or almost the entire structure is coated with a metallic layer. Different operations to selectively transfer the hydrophobic material may be employed such as thermal transfer. When thermal transfer is used, the thermal printer has difficulty printing the entire surface area of the protuberance (because of the high of the protuberance), instead coating only the top section of the protuberance. This way the tops of the protuberances are protected and when washed with water, the rest of the protuberance and the surrounding substrate are converted into metal hydroxide. This is desirable because to create a pattern of reflective and non-reflective areas (or conductive and nonconductive areas) one can create the desired pattern using the protuberances and then use the thermal printer to blanket print the entire sheet (but the material will only be able to transfer to the top sections of the protuberances), thus creating the pattern of metal easily, inexpensively, and with high precision. Therefore, the resolution of the pattern created is dependant on the resolution of the protuberance placement and geometry.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the protuberances have a height of between 10 and 1000 micrometers, more preferably between 10 and 100 micrometers. Protuberance heights greater than 1100 micrometers are difficult to integrate into a flexible substrate, further these protuberances are difficult to wind into a roll and therefore are not economical.
The following example illustrates the practice of this invention. They are not intended to be exhaustive of all possible variations of the invention. Parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise indicated.
A flexible, biaxially oriented PET film was used as the substrate for the patterned device. It was approximately 100 micrometers thick PET film known commercially as Estar with a transmission of 81%. The substrate was then coated with aluminum. A DC magnetron sputter gun was used to deposit 700 angstroms of aluminum onto the substrate. The sputtering was done at 5 mT in an argon atmosphere.
The aluminum coated piece of PET was then patterned with a simple circuit design with a commercially available solvent-based ink commercially available as Sharpie� permanent black marker. The ink consisted of dyes in a solvent solution of n-propanol (71-23-8), n-butanol (71-36-3) and diacetone alcohol (123-42-2). Once the ink was dry the sample was immersed into a water bath at 90� C. for 1 minute. The time was sufficient to convert the unmasked area to aluminum oxide. Once the conversion was complete, the ink was removed by rinsing the surface with acetone. The resulting patterned device had a pattern of metal with a reflectivity of 87% and areas of aluminum oxide with a transmission of 85%. The pattern of metal had mostly specular reflectivity.
The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications can be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.

To eliminate erosion and safety hazards in one of the system's canal, a stormwater system with ditch bottom inlets was installed. Photo: Orange County Public Works Department
During several projects, a bypass system was built to protect construction sites from the quick-rising waters that are typical of central Florida's wet season.
A Florida public works department used rip-rap to stabilize rivers in a canal system that suffered severe erosion in the aftermath of a destructive hurricane season.
Nashville Avenue Pond, which had just been constructed a year earlier, underwent several areas of bank failure after the hurricanes.
Rapid draw-down of pond water had caused the build-up of hydrostatic water table pressure within the pond banks, which in turn caused slope failure, according to a geotechnical analysis. The county determined that underdrains in the pond banks would relieve hydrostatic pressure.
In addition, the county found that the pond slopes were constructed steeper than the original design and were full of unsuitable fill that needed to be replaced with clean sand fill before the banks could be graded to a less steep slope. That would provide a stable pond bank slope without the need for artificial armoring.
Erosion and sedimentation in the pond were a significant water quality concern because two drain wells serve the pond. Those wells discharge stormwater directly into the underlying groundwater aquifer.
Since the project was a reconstruction of a previously permitted stormwater facility, no additional permitting was necessary.
Steep side slopes caused erosion problems and washouts at Lake Underhill Canal, and the washouts encroached the travelway, causing a significant amount of sedimentation.
The county determined that cable concrete was the best option in this case, and an emergency bypass system had to be specified to accommodate wet-weather flows during the rainy season.
Several possible solutions for stabilizing the stream banks were explored, and the rapid turnaround time that resulted from the partnership with NRCS and the water management districts allowed Orange County to address each portion of the project uniquely based on site conditions, flow characteristics, and access.
The project was nearly completed within the 180-day window; a couple amendments to the project were allowed to extend the time due to inclement weather.
It presented many unique situations and challenges, which the county—in partnership with the NRCS—tackled to restore those areas at least to their original state.
The various approaches used for canal stabilization illustrates the constraints and challenges experienced in the selection of materials, construction methods, and limitation of access while maintaining the existing condition of water quality by adhering to strict erosion control measures.

MANSFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Authorities say several dozen people were treated for alcohol-related illnesses at a weekend Keith Urban concert in Massachusetts.
Police and fire officials say ambulances from five surrounding communities responded to the Saturday night concert at the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, about 30 miles south of Boston.
At least 46 people were treated and 22 were taken to local hospitals.
Police say more than 50 people were taken into protective custody at the concert, and some could face charges.
Officials say about 18,000 country music fans attended the concert at the outside venue.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Nuovo Vesuvio. The "family" restaurant, redefined. Home to the finest in Napolitan' cuisine and Essex County's best kept secret. Now Artie Bucco, la cucina's master chef and your personal host, invites you to a special feast...with a little help from his friends. From arancini to zabaglione, from baccala to Quail Sinatra-style, Artie Bucco and his guests, the Sopranos and their associates, offer food lovers one hundred Avellinese-style recipes and valuable preparation tips. But that's not all! Artie also brings you a cornucopia of precious Sopranos artifacts that includes photos from the old country; the first Bucco's Vesuvio's menu from 1926; AJ's school essay on "Why I Like Food"; Bobby Bacala's style tips for big eaters, and much, much more. So share the big table with: Tony Soprano, waste management executive "Most people soak a bagful of discount briquettes with lighter fluid and cook a pork chop until it's shoe leather and think they're Wolfgang Puck." Enjoy his tender Grilled Sausages sizzling with fennel or cheese. Warning: Piercing the skin is a fire hazard. Corrado "Junior" Soprano, Tony's uncle "Mama always cooked. No one died of too much cholesterol or some such crap." Savor his Pasta Fazool, a toothsome marriage of cannellini beans and ditalini pasta, or Giambott', a grand-operatic vegetable medley. Carmela Soprano, Tony's wife "If someone were sick, my inclination would be to send over a pastina and ricotta. It's healing food." Try her Baked Ziti, sinfully enriched with three cheeses, and her earthy 'Shcarole with Garlic. Peter Paul "Paulie Walnuts" Gualtieri, associate of Tony Soprano "I have heard that Eskimos have fifty words for snow. We have five hundred words for food." Sink your teeth into his Eggs in Purgatory-eight eggs, bubbling tomato sauce, and an experience that's pure heaven. As Artie says, "Enjoy, with a thousand meals and a thousand laughs. Buon' appetito!"

Monticello historian's digitizing projectHistorians in the News
tags: Thomas Jefferson, Washington Post, Jefferson Looney
Thomas Jefferson died 186 years ago. But J. Jefferson Looney still wants the nation's third president to speak for himself.
The Monticello historian has spent more than a quarter-century deciphering, annotating and publishing thousands of Jefferson's letters precisely as they were written, including eccentric spellings ("knolege"), obscure capitalizations and musings on slavery, God and death.
Looney's work is part of an audacious, multimillion-dollar memorial to some of the nation's most prominent Founding Fathers: an attempt to track down and publish an exhaustive collection of all of the significant correspondence and other documents written by -- and sent to -- George Washington, John Adams, Jefferson, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin....

Co3 Systems Gathers C-Level Security and Privacy Expertise in New Advisory Board
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/26/13 -- Co3 Systems, a pioneer in Incident Response software, today announced the founding members of its Advisory Board. Comprised of senior information security, privacy risk and compliance executives, researchers, high tech innovators, and entrepreneurs, the Board's charter is to help Co3 drive the next phase of innovation in security incident response.
With the launch this week of a major platform expansion to bring Co3's value to a range of security incident response scenarios such as Distributed Denial of Service attacks (DDoS) and malware infections, Co3 is gearing up to accelerate the momentum it achieved in 2012 -- including a fourfold increase in year-over-year bookings and customer base. The new module is built upon and expands beyond the company's highly successful Privacy Breach Response module that addresses Personally Identifiable Information (PII)/regulated data breaches. The Advisory Board was assembled to provide broad and deep experience in technology, business and legal dynamics to inform and optimize continued development of the Co3 solution.
The Co3 Systems Technology Advisory Board includes: -- Joseph DeSalvo, Managing Director, Zero Point Risk Research DeSalvo served as Chief Security Officer (CSO) for Iron Mountain and was a Special Agent at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
"Today's reality includes facing a state of perpetual threats and compromise. This doesn't mean however, that organizations must remain easy prey. What sets a business apart in this predatory environment is a balanced strategy of prevention, robust incident response capabilities and following an incident, a quick and decisive response. Co3 represents an opportunity for organizations to empower themselves and consistently ensure a complete, comprehensive and compliant response." -- Gerhard Eschelbeck, CTO & Senior Vice President (SVP), Sophos Gerhard is the author of the "Laws of Vulnerabilities" and one of the inventors of the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). As a technology pioneer, he held numerous senior executive positions at Webroot, Qualys and McAfee. He is a widely regarded expert on network and system security, and was invited to present his research in information security to the U.S. Congress.
"As technologists and innovators, we need a feedback loop, especially in security. Understanding where certain controls succeed or fail is how we improve -- the more input we have, the better we can be, and the faster we can get there. While Co3 provides tremendous value as a tool for preparedness and response, it also represents a great opportunity for technologists to understand the relative strengths and weaknesses in how technologies, controls and the people who interact with them are deployed." -- Samir Kapuria, Vice President, Business Strategy and Security Intelligence, Symantec Kapuria has held management and technical positions at @stake; BBN Technologies, and Bankers Trust.
"Better security is built on better intelligence. The more information we have at our disposal, the better we can handle the unpredictable nature of threats to the business. While most think of attack profiles and malware samples when they think of security 'intelligence,' equally important is capturing how business processes and audiences consume that intelligence. By creating a rich structure and tools for guiding preparedness and response, Co3 is creating additional value in security intelligence and helping to build better security overall." -- Eugene Kuznetsov, Executive & Entrepreneur Kuznetsov is Founder of DataPower and Abine, angel investor, recipient of the InfoWorld Top 25 CTOs award and Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
"In today's world, organizations have to not only defend against cyber threats, but to also plan for the virtual inevitability of their networks being breached. What impresses me about Co3's innovation is that it provides a pragmatic solution to the problem of responding to serious security incidents while complying with all relevant regulations. " -- Stuart McClure, CEO, President and Founder, Cylance, Inc.
McClure is the founding author and lead writer of "Hacking Exposed" and has held numerous senior executive positions at McAfee, with the most recent being Executive Vice President, Worldwide Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and General Manager.
"As we've highlighted in 'Hacking Exposed,' to completely respond to today's advanced threats, organizations must enhance their incident response capabilities. Co3 allows organizations to be thoroughly prepared when the next big attack hits, and ready to move when it does." -- Chris McLellan, Chief Security Officer, HubSpot Inc.
McLellan served as Vice President, Risk and Compliance, Enterprise Technology Services for State Street Bank and SVP/CISO, Technology Risk Management for Fidelity Investments.
"No matter how big you are or how well you think you are prepared, breaches can and will happen. Maintaining trust in the face of this requires confidence that any breach will be dealt with swiftly and decisively. Many organizations struggle with manual, error-prone, and time-consuming approaches to breach response. What Co3 has built allows organizations to remain confident of the continuity of their business and ensure that they protect the trust of their constituents." -- Larry Ponemon, Chairman and Founder of the Ponemon Institute Dr. Larry Ponemon's research firm is dedicated to advancing privacy and data protection practices. Dr. Ponemon is considered a pioneer in privacy auditing and the Responsible Information Management or RIM framework.
"When it comes to security and privacy, the devil is in the data. Years of analyzing privacy and data breach trends make it clear that the vast majority of organizations still operate -- regardless of their words or controls -- under the 'I never thought it would happen to me' mentality. This is a big mistake. Having both designed privacy programs and analyzed the aggregate of industry preparedness, no organization should ever be comfortable with its readiness. Having put the Co3 solution to the test, I can say that organizations that use a solution like Co3 can avoid this pitfall and put themselves ahead of the pack." -- Andrew Serwin, CEO and Executive Director at The Lares Institute Serwin is the founding chair of the Privacy, Security and Information Management Practice of Foley & Lardner LLP. He has authored several books, including the leading treatise on privacy, "Information Security and Privacy: A Guide to Federal and State Law and Compliance" and has received numerous accolades in data protection and privacy by Computerworld and Legal 500.
"Many businesses who experience a breach are caught off-guard and unprepared for the complicated sea of regulations with which they must comply. Such events can consume huge amounts of time across multiple parts of the organization, driving enormous expense in personnel and consulting costs, and placing the company at risk for substantial damage to the business, imposition of regulatory fines, and uncontained brand damage. Managing the breach is important, but having an actionable plan to move beyond the incident is something each organization should try to achieve. Tools like Co3 can help companies focus on tuning an organization's response and then executing it, rather than getting mired in detail that doesn't move the needle long term." "It's tremendously gratifying to have so much talent standing alongside the company -- a clear sign from industry experts that we're on the right track," said John Bruce, CEO at Co3 Systems. "It's immensely valuable to have their counsel as we build our business." Follow Co3 Systems: Co3 Systems Blog:
