Block your license plate from cameras - Photo Mask Cover review
Related Videos:
Author Garlicjr Made (2 months)
Cheaper, Safer solution. Sun screen or sun block, Sun screen blocks uv
rays as we all know, but it also blocks any type of light also, and if you
know anything about cameras you will know they are all about light. Spray
it or rub it all over your plate, with the naked eye you cant tell any
thing is on your plate, but to cameras it will just be a big black
rectangle. Cheers.

Excellent my friend.... However here in Florida were I live it might be
illegal..I guess the only way to know for sure is to put it to the test..If
they pull me over asking about the cover on my plate I will cooperate with
the officer. I never been in trouble with the law 50yrs on earth, so if you
have nothing to hide, Fuck them and there camara's..Its a intrusion and
complete scam to go to your mailbox and get a $145.00 dollar ticket for not
obeying the 3 second rule at a stop sign...I was ready to throw the mailbox
in the street when I found out a camera caught me rolling through the

Almost every traffic camera in North America actually do not record the

Author Scorch1028 (2 months)
The rectangular section of my photo mask cover that bends the light and
distorts the photo flash, turned "yellow" and in spite of many scrubbings
and bleachings, I cannot turn it clear like it was when I first bought it 2
years ago. I believe that it turned yellow from the combination of
weather, humidity, and years of exposure to direct sunlight. I also think
that because of the color and texture of the rectangular plastic strip,
that it cannot be made "clear" again, so I am stuck with the yellow film
which is a dead give-away that that I am masking my license plate. I took
the yellowed plate cover off so that I would not get stopped or ticketed by
the police.

im just sayin', but if the government really wants to take a picture of
your plate, they WILL find a way to outlaw these
Author Julio Marchi (2 months)
The Law Enforcement is based on the folowing statement: "It is illegal to
mount license plates frames, colored glass, plastic or any other type of
covering on your license plates that alters or obscures the letters,
numbers, decals or the state where the vehicle is registered, and when the
registration expires.". As such, the device is illegal simply because it is
a "plastic covering the license plate" (not even talking about the
obfuscation aspect of it).
Please, notice I am not saying one shouldn't try to avoid being tracked (in
a privacy matter). What I am saying is that if a person is really concerned
about being tracked, they should first think about blocking their
windshields against photos (as most cameras take photos from several
angles, includding from the driver) and be less concerned about the license
plate. Block the license plate alone sounds to me as a basic attempt to
freely "speed" and "run red lights", which by itself is stupid and
shouldn't be attempted, period!
Lets be realistic here: a person nowadays can be tracked by cell phone (and
other devices), by face recognition, by credit-card usage, by devices in
the car and even be followed in the old fashion way... That's why, IMO,
this "license plate cover" is not more than a law breaker tool instead of a
personal protective device.

This is an ingenious idea, and it does work if properly installed, spaced
etc. However, I never bothered with this because a friend of mine locally
bought one.. and rarely got pulled over before, after he installed it..
because it obscures the view of the license plate even from the next lane..
police WILL pull you over for that alone. Once you are pulled over it's
open game for the police to try and search your car, person, etc. So, to
me, these , for some, cause more harm than "benefit". Your mileage may
vary. :)

the state pensioneers don't give a rat's ass about the taxpayers. They are

they should also install LED WARNING signs that tell you how many seconds
until the light changes to yellow. This would give us TAXPAYERS time to
slow down or sale through the green light. The speed trap cameras make
everything more DANGEROUS.

There are many uncertainties around climate change-related human mobility, particularly when it comes to potential cross-border movements. In the first place, it is difficult to predict the number of people who will be displaced or who will decide to migrate for reasons related to climate change. And it is difficult to determine responsibility for caring for those who are displaced across borders. There are serious normative gaps which Nina Schrepfer and I explored in a recent paper published in UNHCR's legal and protection policy research series.
In our paper we present the background, context and present discussions around climate change-related mobility and then identify normative gaps for each of five scenarios of population mobility likely to occur:
In the case of sudden-onset disasters, most of those displaced will remain within their own countries as internally displaced persons (IDPs) where an existing normative framework would apply: the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement. But some may cross international borders– for example if this is the only escape route or there are no protection and assistance capacities at home. While movement is forced, these people generally do not fall under the criteria of international refugee law.
In the case of environmental degradation and slow-onset disasters, cross-border movements are traditionally seen as migrants moving voluntarily as a way of coping with the changing environment. But with worsening environmental degradation, the movement of persons will become increasingly involuntary. In both cases, they have no right to admission and little protection except to a limited extent under general human rights law.
For small island states facing threats because of rising sea levels, people will have to move to other islands belonging to the same state or cross international borders. Initially they will probably be part of a migratory movement but eventually their movement will be forced. International law does not provide sufficient protection for them.
The effects of climate change are likely to lead to zones prohibited for human habitation and it is likely that people will be relocated to other areas within the borders of their countries. But cross-border movements could occur if proposed relocation areas are unsuitable or if no durable alternatives in line with human rights standards are offered to the affected population. The character of this cross-border movement is unclear and will probably require individual determination as to whether such acts may amount to individual persecution under refugee law.
Finally, if the effects of climate change lead to unrest, violence and armed conflict, those fleeing across a border may qualify as refugees under the 1951 Convention and related regional instruments.
In our paper, we explore the general obligations of states at the levels of mitigation, adaptation and protection. We identify critical legal issues which remain unaddressed, including the critical question of how to distinguish between voluntary and forced movements and suggest ways to address these gaps. Finally, we suggest that a strategy is needed to create an international regime for the protection of people crossing borders in the context of climate change which is based on the four pillars of prevention, migration management, temporary and permanent protection schemes and resettlement.

I asked around in the #C++ channel on irc.freenode.net, and found out that you are right. It is scope issues, however you can still define the operator in the namespace(like you suggested) and it will find it appropriately, even for nested classes. For my case I simply wrap them in
namespace Ogre {
inline bool operator==(::Ogre::CompositorInstance::TargetOperation const &lhs, ::Ogre::CompositorInstance::TargetOperation const &rhs) {
throw std::runtime_error("::Ogre::CompositorInstance::TargetOperation has no comparison operator, using contains has no meaning.");
and it begins to compile. Perhaps we can do the same thing in pyplusplus. In my mind, there are two issues.
1) if we don't issue a warning about it, users may be unsuspecting about the error, so we should still issue a warning when running pyplusplus. Additionally, maybe we can issue the same warning via a compiler directive such as #warning for g++? Of course, all of these warnings should be disabled via the option that we previously discussed on the mailing list.
2) We should still provide a way to completely disable the indexing suite (I think this is already done?)
In my mind, an exception thrown is an appropriate pythonic way of handling this. An exception would also be thrown if the __contains__ method was not provided for a pythonic list-like object.

I think scope. Compiler does not look for operator== where you think
it looks for.
I am afraid, that for classes that defined within other classes you don't have
solution. ( I hope somebody will say that I am wrong and show the solution ).
For classes that defined in the namespace, you can define operator==
in that namespace.

A little extra warmth without bulk is perfect for the cold gym, but I'm finding that I love them as a sleeve extension under sweaters and thermals. If you don't know about arm warmers-- get educated!

Excellent value for money! The owners are really kind, the room was bright with a nice view to the mountains (ask for a room with a view to the moutains) and the breakfast was excellent with homemade products. The location is also perfect: 5 mn to the center of Metsovo Εξαιρετική αξία για τα χρήματα! Οι ιδιοκτήτες είναι πολύ ευγενικοί, το δωμάτιο ήταν φωτεινό με ωραία θέα προς τα βουνά (ρωτήστε για ένα δωμάτιο με θέα προς τα βουνά) και το πρωινό ήταν εξαιρετικό με σπιτικά προϊόντα. Η τοποθεσία είναι επίσης πολύ καλή: 5 λπ. aπο το κέντρο
We visited this hotel, also this lovely town for second time. We had great time. It was our rest point on the way to Corfu. As we were there for second time we felt like we visited cousins on the moment. I like places with lot of lovely details, warm and hospitality atmosfere. The Anax hotel is just like that.
the perfect view to the mountains the silence in the morning extremely friendly and helping hosts very good breakfast close to the village center lots of local temptations
poor wi-fi in the room
A really relaxing place, with friendly owners who give a warm and welcome, home-like feeling. It is a great to place to stay during your visit, and the one that I would definetely book again next time.
Views, easy walk into town but set just above, fabulous personally prepared breakfast and caring local family, used to be shepherds and lived here for generations
Everything was fine
Very friendly and kind staff, good greek coffee and tasty breakfast with local products and homemade cakes. It is located in a quite area, having a wonderful view to the mountains.
Very nice hosts Very good breakfast Spacious room with 2 large beds Nice view from the balcony Quiet position Easy parking (opposite the building, no narrow or steep roads, like for other hotels)
bathroom ventilation very noisy
The staff/owners could not be more helpful, friendly and accomodating. The breakfasts were wonderful: fresh, sumptuous and plenty to eat. The view was superb and its location on the edge of town meant it was quiet. I will definitely stay here again if i return to Metsovo.
Great location with fantastic views, very welcoming family staff, rooms were warm and cozy, food was delicious.
A very family oriented hotel and the owners are very friendly. The home made breakfast is really delicious on a cold winter day. Owners are also very obliging to our requests. Rooms have beautiful views of the mountains.
No negative comments.

My gggrandmother was Elizabeth Buckthought born c1825 to Thomas Buckthought. Thomas gave his occupation on Elizabeth's marriage certificate as Town Beadle (probably in the Stoke Damerel area of Plymouth).
Elizabeth married William Wallis Opie on 10 October 1853 in the Parish Church of Stoke Damerel. William gave his occupation as a warder at Devonport Prison where he also resided.
Can anybody out there connect this to any information that they are aware of. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

When IGM reported in February that iTunes had become the No 2 music retailer, it was projected that Apple's music store would overtake Wal-Mart some time this year. Incredibly, iTunes has already surpassed the big-box retailer in January.
Quoting NPD data leaked by Apple, Ars Technica reports that the iTunes Store, likely fueled by holiday gift cards, was the top retail music destination:
01 Apple, 19%
02 Wal-Mart, 15%
03 Best Buy, 13%
04 Amazon, 6%
05 Borders
"The news was announced in an e-mail sent this afternoon to some Apple employees ... It includes a screenshot of an Excel file showing the top ten music retailers in the US for January 2008, and Apple is at the top of the list."
Overall, paid downloads accounted for almost 30 percent of all music sold in January, according to NPD. Further, the researcher says that 48 percent of US teens didn't buy a single CD in 2007, compared to 38 percent in 2006.
Editors' note: What a satisfying news story. Wal-Mart reduced to No 2 and the music labels even more beholden to Apple!
Pity Apple only held the title for the month of January. Still it's just a matter of time until iTunes dominates retail music...

Kim Kardashian to Sue Over Sex Tape Releaseby Mischalova at . Comments
Why can't everyone be as laid back and desperate for attention as Keeley Hazell?
What did that underwear mode do when her sex tape was leaked on the Internet? She embraced it as an opportunity to remain in the nude spotlight for 15 more minutes.
Maybe it's not too late for Kim Kardashian to take the same view. But for now, Us Magazine is reporting that the sex slave to Ray J plans to file a legal claim in an effort to prevent the release of her X-rated video.
When contacted by Us for comment, Kardashian - a longtime pal of homemade-porn queen Paris Hilton - confirmed the tapes' existence, but insists she has "nothing to do" with them being made public.
The step-sister of Brody Jenner (no, seriously; her mom is married to his dad) says she's "hurt and embarrassed" about the prospect of the tape being made public. She added that she will be issuing a statement about developments to prevent a planned DVD release.
Kardashian, of course, previously dated Nick Lachey. We're hoping her publicized sex tape will lead that former boy band member to finally release the mother of all home videos, the gold mine we all know is out there:
Do it for your fans, Nick.
She deserved it. Seriously. The Camera was running. She obviously knew. Shes so stupid. I can't stand her, shes not even that pretty. i hat her and her sisters. just go away all of them.

Shane Victorino back at Fenway - 0 Comments
According to Shane Victorino, traffic was to blame for his no-show Saturday night for Double-A Portland. But that wasn't a problem yesterday as he was with short-season Lowell in the annual "Futures at Fenway" game between the Spinners and the Mahonig Valley Scrappers.
And despite a less-than-stellar stint in the minors so far — he went 0-for-2 yesterday with a walk to go to 0-for-19 at the plate since going down — Victorino may be back in the lineup with the Red Sox by Friday night in the Red Sox' first game back after the All-Star break.

Porter didn't need a lot of convincing from Miami
DAVIE, Fla. -- Joey Porter wore a new Miami Dolphins visor, plus had an aqua-and-orange pin on his shirt.
Clearly, the three-time Pro Bowl linebacker is already trying to fit in with his new team.
Since sacks became an official NFL stat in the 1982 season, only two players have recorded 60 sacks and 10 interceptions: Joey Porter and Clay Matthews.
|Yrs in NFL
Porter passed his physical and signed a five-year, $32 million contract Wednesday with the Dolphins, making the former Pittsburgh star the first marquee name to join the club during the free-agent period.
"I came here to Miami to help this team get to a championship," said Porter, who helped the Steelers win the Super Bowl two seasons ago. "I felt this would be a good situation for me, so it didn't take a lot of convincing."
New Dolphins coach Cam Cameron and general manager Randy Mueller flew to California on Monday to see Porter at his home, and their sales pitch worked. Porter -- whom the Steelers released last week in a salary-cap move -- agreed late that night to a deal, one that guarantees him $20 million.
"We're excited to be able to add Joey to our football team," Cameron said. "He is an impact player who will add many different dimensions to our defense."
The Dolphins play a 3-4 defense, a scheme Porter says best suits him. He joins a unit that ranked fourth in the NFL in yards allowed last season and includes defensive player of the year Jason Taylor.
"It's great that we were able to acquire a player of Joey's caliber," Taylor said. "He has been an impact player in this league for many years, and when you add someone who has the ability to make plays like he does, it will help not just the defense, but the entire team."
Porter joins a linebacker corps that includes Zach Thomas and Channing Crowder. He'll replace Donnie Spragan, a free agent.
"A player of Joey's ability doesn't become available often, especially at a position of need," Mueller said. "We knew that together we all would have to react immediately to be able to sign him, and I was glad with the way we all worked so quickly internally in order to get this done."
The Dolphins have already parted ways with at least 10 players this offseason, but Porter said Cameron and Mueller made it clear to him that the team's goals are as high as ever.
"I didn't look at it as if they're rebuilding," Porter said. "I looked at it as they're trying to put a championship team together. They're already a good team -- but just a couple of pieces away -- and, hopefully, I can be part of the puzzle."
Dom Capers, who was with the Steelers before Porter joined that team and is now Miami's defensive coordinator, said he was surprised a player like him became available.
"You're always looking for impact players on the defensive side of the football and they're hard to come by," Capers said. "Joey's career to this point speaks for itself. One of the hardest positions to find in our defensive scheme is a player at the outside linebacker position that can ... rush the passer effectively and be able to drop into coverage."
Several other teams reportedly had interest in Porter, but he said only the Dolphins had the ability to convince him they would be championship-ready.
"Miami is heading in the right direction and making all the right moves," Porter said. "So for me, it was the right fit."

The new Galaxy is just one of a raft of handsets hitting the market in coming weeks and months; there's even a rumor Apple AAPL -0.8557218124341412% Apple Inc.

In any event, the wave of coming gadgets might lend a hand to beleaguered tech stocks, which are up a mere 0.6%, on average, this year, the third worst performer, beating only the 0.4% rise in financials and utilities.
Rather than take on the entire sector, I recommend investors look to small reversals of leadership here or there within industries. In particular, some chip makers within semiconductors may be ready to appreciate after floundering this year, if they can ride the coattails of the smartphone debuts, and the networks that will tether all those phones.

SPEAKING OF APPLE, and what ails it, Berkshire Hathaway's Warren Buffett spent three hours on CNBC last Monday morning dispensing his customary wit and wisdom on a variety of topics, including Apple.
Asked about the stock's 41% drop in the last five months, Buffett reminded viewers that Berkshire has tanked by 50% four different times in its history and always came roaring back. Each time, someone advised Buffett to pay a dividend to boost the shares, and each time Buffett demurred.
Asked about hedge-fund activist David Einhorn's call for Apple to issue preferred shares, Buffett's counsel was simple. "I would ignore him," he said. "I would run the business to create the most value over the next five or 10 years. You can't run a business to try to run the stock up everyday."
CNBC's commentators quickly ignored that patient view and resumed their hand-wringing about Apple after the segment.
It was probably of little consequence to them that Apple, like Berkshire, has seen its stock stumble dramatically in the past, such as when it fell as much as 41% between Dec. 28, 2007, and March 3, 2008, just after the iPhone was first introduced.
But if the Oracle's words hold no weight, consider some more specific data.
Last week I met with Mahi de Silva, who is head of the digital advertising efforts of a little company called Opera Software, OPERA.OS 4.509582863585118% Opera Software ASA Norway: Oslo NOK92.7 4 4.509582863585118% /Date(1416954306000-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1019702 P/E Ratio 37.81975439598548 Market Cap 12701982314.5459 Dividend Yield 0.2588996763754045% Rev. per Employee 2580180 More quote details and news » listed on the Oslo exchange (OPERA.Norway). Opera is best known for a Web browser that can be run on desktops, smartphones, and tablet computers. That in itself might be of little interest to readers.
But because Opera bought de Silva's start-up, AdMarvel, in 2010, the company now also runs the advertising infrastructure for 20 of the top 25 publishers on mobile devices, including The Wall Street Journal and Barron's. The Barron's iPad app was created using Opera's technology, and every time you see an ad amidst our priceless content, that's Opera at work.
To get back to Apple, de Silva says that out of the roughly $1 billion in gross advertising dollars the company facilitated for us and other publishers last year, 40% of the volume of ad impressions came from Apple's devices versus just 30% for devices running Google's GOOG 0.3356389192797671% Google Inc. Cl C U.S.: Nasdaq USD541.08 1.81 0.3356389192797671% /Date(1416952800017-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1713075 AFTER HOURS USD541.08 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 368605403194.592 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1355410 More quote details and news » (GOOG) Android operating system.
How can it be that Apple's devices generate so much more ad activity, when Apple has just 22% of smartphone sales and the vast majority is controlled by Android?
"Android users are a bit geeky," says de Silva. By which he means the average user of an Android smartphone or tablet is less likely to download and use the apps provided by Dow Jones and other premiere publishers that create the ad inventory that advertisers crave.
When I asked de Silva if that might change if Apple were to drop to, say, 15% of smartphone sales, he was inclined to think not. That audience on Apple's iOS is highly valuable, even if the overall smartphone numbers shift. The cost-per-thousand, or CPM, in fact, for ads on iOS is about 25% higher than on Android, he said.
In other words, Apple's gadgets are a platform on which the high-value consumers gather, and where the high-value publishers and advertisers focus their efforts. All three constituents tend to build the value of Apple's software in the way that they meet up.
And so, the next time someone says that the iPhone doesn't have the largest screen, or that other tablet computers are cheaper, remember that when it comes to making business sense on these devices, Apple still seems to be at the front of the pack.

Hey everybody. I'm not meaning blow my own horn here, but according to what I've been reading here on this sight, my efficiencies are freakishly high... I'm wondering if I'm using the "calculator" wrong (I've been using the efficiency calculator on tastybrew.com), or if I'm just lucky.
Would someone mind running this for me in their own program????
12 gallon at start of boil
10.5 gallon into fermenters
12 lb pale malt
4 lb german pilsner malt
1lb belgian aromatic malt
1lb 15L crystal
1 lb cara-pils.
I never even wondered about efficiency before seeing all these postings, but I find that it's nice to know.
I appreciate your help.
I get 88% running it through recipator.
Sounds pretty good to me.
19lb of malt would give around 19*36 gravity points = 684
684/10.5 = 65
you got 60 so
Now thats obviously a quick rough way to work it out and I'm assuming the malt is rated at 1036, some malts ar around 1040 so that would reduce it.
Sound very good.
What sort of system are you runnin?
Not that 90% is impossible but if I were you, I'd check the hydrometer for accuracy, I have two, one is off 6 points and the other is off 4.
Life is to short and the liver can only handle so much, so why waste it on bad beer.
Wow, thanks for the quick responses!
Waldo, I've got three different hydros, one's brand new, and they all three read pretty much the same.
Mew, my efficiency seemed to go way up when I went back to doing ten gallon batches (I didn't have the capacity for awhile because my old rig got stolen). But I also now have a three roller crankandstein that does a purt'near perfect crush, and I've made a mash/lauter tun out of a fifteen gallon keg. It has a copper manifold that drains pretty close to the bottom of the keg, so I'm not leaving a bunch of wort in there.
Also, I sparge with 180 deg H2O out of a cooler (I don't adjust the PH of the sparge) and it hits the grain bed at about 170.
Again, thanks to you folks who ran the numbers. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't using the program wrong. -p

Shift in Payment Models Alters Physician Compensation
As physician reimbursement shifts from a fee-for-service model to a value-based structure, expect to see changes in how compensation plans are drafted.
Quality and patient satisfaction benchmarks are not only affecting physician reimbursement levels, but they are also a growing component of physician compensation formulas, multiple and independent studies show.
Hospitals and health systems have already been focused on HCAHPS scores, which attempt to measure patient satisfaction, though there is plenty of conversation about whether the survey is an accurate measure of how a patient is treated during a hospital stay. But there is a growing body of research that indicates physician and healthcare executive compensation is or will be tied to patient satisfaction, too.
Slideshow: Healthcare Leaders on Executive Compensation
A February 2014 study from Sullivan, Cotter and Associates (SullivanCotter), 2013 Physician Compensation and Productivity Survey Report, shows an increase in hospitals and healthcare organizations tying portions of compensation to metrics such as quality and patient satisfaction.
As a percentage of the total compensation package, the average amount that was tied to a quality metric was 5%. The dollar amount varied among primary care physicians and specialists, with specialists receiving more than PCPs, though overall, the report showed a higher overall increase in cash compensation for PCPs.

ASIA/IRAQ - Letter from Patriarch Louis Raphael I to Iraqi Parliament: there is no time to waste
Baghdad (Agenzia Fides) - Since the meetings of the Iraqi parliament convened to form a new government have proven to be a waste of time, Patriarch Louis Raphael I sent a Letter to the Members of Iraqi Parliament. The Patriarch - so says the appeal - adding his "humble voice as Christian religious authority in Iraq" to the voice of all the Muslim authorities, begs them "to accelerate the elections of the three presidencies to save the country from the dangers of and disorganization and loosing" .
The Leader of the Chaldean Church proposes to members of Parliament a short and intense prayer, to be read at the beginning of their meetings, "God - so reads the invocation suggested by the Patriarch - help us that we may use the dialogue between us and that we may understand each other to resolve the misunderstanding between us, far from restriction and sectarianism. God help us to spread the peace and tranquility between our people, so that Iraq may come out from its problem victorious. Amen". (GV) (Agenzia Fides 15/07/2014)

Lukas Mathis has a great post on the web app versus native app debate (that is, amazingly, still going on in 2014):
There are plenty of companies advertising «native apps» that are really nothing else than branded browsers that run a web app. Put a web app inside a native wrapper, and voilà: you have a native app. This works, because web apps have become good enough that most people don't have to care about the difference anymore. To them, the difference between a native app and a web page comes down to things like an icon on the home screen, the fact that it appears in the task switcher, and the fact that it can receive notifications. All of these things can be provided by a web app with a native wrapper.
And as John Gruber pointed out recently, native versus web isn't an either/or proposition:
I can't believe someone is still writing this in 2014. Users love apps, developers love apps — the only people who don't love apps are pundits who don't understand that apps aren't really in opposition to the open Internet. They're just superior clients to open Internet services. Instagram didn't even have a web interface for years, but native app clients for iOS and Android didn't lock Instagram into anything. Their back-end is just as open as it would have been if they had only had a web browser client interface. They just wouldn't have gotten popular.
From the Sarasota Patch:
The brouhaha over Abbott's determination to feed the hungry erupted Sunday when Abbott and two local pastors were arrested for feeding people in Fort Lauderdale's Stranahan Park. Abbott is the founder of Love Thy Neighbor, a local nonprofit that helps the homeless. He'd only handed out a few of the 300 meals he had prepared when police told him to stop or else… Fort Lauderdale passed a new law Oct. 22 that bans public food sharing.
Shame on you, Fort Lauderdale.

Mattison's style a key to success of Ravens' defense
Published: Thursday, January 14, 2010 at 11:04 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 14, 2010 at 11:04 a.m.
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Greg Mattison oversees a unit every bit as effective and brash as those that thrived under Rex Ryan.
One difference: Mattison has done it without any of his predecessor's bluster.
Before leaving to become head coach of the New York Jets, Ryan spent four years as Baltimore's defensive coordinator. He was brazen and boastful, and backed up the bravado with a defense that perennially was among the best in the NFL.
Mattison, the former co-defensive coordinator at Florida, is far more reserved, yet his defense is just as potent.
"To me, it's a typical Baltimore defense: Very active, very physical, create a lot of plays," said Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, who will face the Ravens in the second round of the playoffs on Saturday night. "They're playing well right now, and it will be a real challenge for us."
The Ravens own the third-ranked defense in the NFL, and in their playoff opener they held New England to 196 yards in a 33-14 victory. Earlier this season, Baltimore held the Colts without a second-half touchdown in a 17-15 defeat.
Mattison won't take any of the credit. He attributes his success to the performance of the players and a blueprint that was in place long before he arrived in 2008 as Baltimore's linebackers coach.
"This is the defensive system that fits our players. The calls that a person could make aren't going to be successful if you don't have the guys out there executing them," Mattison said. "It's all about them executing whatever's called."
Mattison, 60, is probably being too modest. In addition to dealing with the pressure of taking over for one of the best defensive coordinators in the game, he also had to do without two standout players from last year, linebacker Bart Scott and safety Jim Leonhard, who followed Ryan to New York.
Mattison also had to fill the void left by season-ending knee injuries to cornerbacks Fabian Washington and Lardarius Webb, along with the loss of safety Ed Reed and linebacker Terrell Suggs, each of whom missed several weeks with injuries.
"Anytime you lose players like that, it's tough to be successful," Ravens linebacker Jarret Johnson said. "Those are things you have to deal with. I thought he did a great job having the young guys step up, putting people in different roles and still being successful."
Said Mattison: "As the Ravens do it, when somebody goes down, you're only going to be as strong as the next guy that goes in there. When your opportunity comes, when it's time for you do it, you step in there and the defense doesn't slip."
Sort of like Mattison stepping in for Ryan.
"The adjustment for him came kind of easy because last year he was linebackers coach under Rex," middle linebacker Ray Lewis said. "The vibe of how we work and how we talk to each other, that kind of started when he first got here. So that carried right over. It was a very easy transition."
Which is not to say Mattison is anything like Ryan, who's never been shy about speaking his mind in the locker room or on the sideline.
"The difference is, Mattison wants the players to play, whereas Rex was like, 'I'll go out there and we'll get it done,'" defensive end Trevor Pryce said. "Two different ways of doing it, but it's still football. Eleven guys on the ball."
Rookie linebacker Paul Kruger didn't play under Ryan. But he likes Mattison's style, which can best be described as: Here's what we're going to do, here's how to do it, now go out and play your best.
"He's a coach with high expectations. That's what drives a lot of us to want to do good," Kruger said. "He'll teach it to you and go over it and over it, so if you make a mistake it's kind of your fault. He sets a high standard for us, and for me, that really drives me to want to do well."
The veterans on Baltimore's defense loved playing for Ryan. But little has changed now that the low-key Mattison is in charge.
"It was tough losing Rex. He meant a lot to a lot of us around here," Johnson said. "But if you're going to lose Rex, you need a guy like coach Mattison to step into his role. I don't think there could have been a better transition."
