Noob Tutorials #1 Ruby Code

I will be going through the Learn To Program Ruby book. So for the first week i did chapters 1-4 and the firs assignment was.

Hours in a year. How many hours are in a year?

Minutes in a decade. How many minutes are in a decade?

Your age in seconds. How many seconds old are you?

and the answer is.

puts 24 * 365 

puts 60 * 24 * 365 * 10

puts 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 15

to do this you will need a code editor, I'm currently using TextWrangler. To execute my ruby programs, I will be the command line. To get to the command line on a Mac, use the Terminal application (you can find it under: /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app. I'm using this book: Learn to Program by Chris Pine.

Lets Eat #2 Pop Tarts!

These are "CRAZY GOOD" as they say in the TV commercial. When I first made this post I posted it on my blog BoyWhoCooks and why BoyWhoCooks doesn't  have a link is because I broke it. Not the link but the blog. I some how got locked out so don't try to find it. Enough small talk lets jump into the recipe!

The Ingredients:

Pie crust
your choice of filling
Egg
icing sugar ( optional )
Milk ( optional )

Start by flouring out a work surface.

Roll out and cut out long wide strips of dough.

Beat your egg with a little bit of water to make an egg wash.

Now for the fun part! Smear a thick layer of filling on to half of your pastry leaving a 1/4-1/2 an inch of pastry uncovered at the edges.

Fold the dough over to make a pocket

Poke some holes in the top.

Bake until browned about 10-12 minutes.

Mix icing sugar and milk to make a thick glaze and add cocoa powder, peanut butter, or other flavorings.

Glaze your pop tarts and your done!

Mod minecraft #1 Portal 1-2 mod.

Are mod pack that we are working on has a lot of mods in it. So instead of cramming all of are mods into one post about EPC ( EPC is the name of are mod pack ) we are going to do several.  So today we are focusing on the portal gun aspect of EPC. This is a mod where you get sentry turrets, aerial faith plates, long fall boots, companion cube, and more. There are five portal guns to choose from:

The original orange and blue,

Atlas's dark and light blue,

P-body's red and orange,

And now for some unique ones:

The bacon gun which is dark red and light blue,

And the potato gun which is dark green and lavender.

One nice part about the portal mod is that it doesn't feel like a fan mod ( even if it might be) because all of the items are very useful. Such as the aerial faith plates. They can be used for very fast travel through tunnels. And if you are super rich you can make a portal gun and get around even faster. Here is a picture of the other items in the mod:

There are a TON of portal classics such as the radio:

The companion cube:

And a bunch of others. All in all this mod rocks and I hope the modders keeps adding more.

Lets Eat #1 Deconstructed Sandwich

This is a weird one. I love toasted bread and fried ham and so on so once when we were having sandwiches I chopped up all of the ingredients and fried it up!

The Ingredients:

2 sliced of bread

lunch meat

cheese 

olive oil

SPG ( Salt, Pepper, and garlic)

1-2 Tbsp vegetable oil ( optional )

 an egg ( also optional )

Slice your bread into cubes.

Pick out your favorite lunch meat and however much of it that you would put in a sandwich.

Slice it.

Drizzle olive oil and SPG onto your bread and start to toast it in a pan on high heat.

When your bread is slightly toasted than move it to one side.

Add you lunch meat.

And toast it all to your liking.

grate/place your cheese on top of your bread and meat.

Cover and keep on high heat for 15-30 seconds and then turn the heat off. Wait for your cheese to melt. 

Scoop it out of your pan and enjoy!
