Heartbreak Hotel
Anyway, she was interviewing me the other day and asking me questions that I personally thought were very personal, outside the scope of band related stuff. But since she is a very kind individual who has showed extreme passion behind doing a documentary with a front-man with the temper of a petulant five year old, and a guy whose own mother describes as a 32 year old "boy", I figured I would answer all of her questions honestly.(Some ladies would say that I was hung like a 5 year old as well, but you can't believe the rumors.) She asked me about my family, habits, dislikes, very standard questions until she got to the question, "Can you tell me about your most extreme heartbreaks? Immediately your mind goes to heartbreaks of the relationship variety, where some misguided trollop of a woman loosely juggled with your emotions like a fucking circus clown. But as I sat there, I realized that I have had heartbreak in my life more extreme, that had nothing to do with some girl I loved simply because she didn't totally "irritate" me, or because she lacked a "gag reflex". I went into detail about two "heartbreaks", and here they are..
Stella:(picture not Stella) I used to date this chick named Renee who lived in a extremely bad neighborhood. It was so bad that I used to call her area "Little Beirut" for all the gunshots you would hear during any given night. Every time I left my car to go inside her house I always looked back at the car, the same way someone might look at a weekend fling as they boarded a plane, having to deal with the fact that that might be the last time you ever see them again. Yes, it was that bad. Anyway, during the course of me "dating" Renee(I put quotes around her name because our length phone conversations consisted of the ever romantic, "Hey, whatcha doing? Can I come over? cool!") I became friendly with her elderly neighbor, a woman named Stella. Stella had to be like 75, but she was still sharp as a tack and she took a quick liking to me, probably because she said that I reminded her of her grandson.
Through many conversations that we had I learned several interesting things about her, like her active involvement in the civil rights movement, tales of a brother of hers that was lynched, but most of all I learned her extreme love for music. We would sit in her living room that always smelled like cornbread, which I mean in the best way possible, and we would spin records for hours listening to Ella, Nina, Count Basie, Miles, you name it we played it. She was also a first class riot, especially when she would say to me, "HumanityCritic, you know the girl that you are messing with is easy don't you?? I hope you aren't falling in love, so you would be smart if you had the same emotional investment in her as you do your socks. She's pretty easy!" I would always nod in agreement and say, "Stella, I'm not with her because of her mind. Plus, I could never get serious with anyone who has to think for a moment when asked who the president is, plus there is a good chance that if me and her had a child together she would name my offspring some ghetto ass name that she thinks is unique, but is actually a Ethiopian word for asshole. Don't worry." Stella had a special place in my heart, and I anxiously awaited the days when I would see her, seeing her frail body answer the door and the look of happiness on her face.
So you can imagine my shock and horror when I learned that Stella was brutally raped and murdered outside her house as she got her morning paper one day. I was in a state of disbelief for hours after Renee had told me what had happened over the phone, it was also a shock that her neighbors either didn't see anything or they wouldn't cooperate with police. The reality set in when a police officer, who probably shouldn't have told me anything, went into vivid detail of how many times she was stabbed and the two probable men that committed that heinous crime. As he finished up the horrible specifics of what happened I dropped to my knees and sobbed uncontrollably. I looked up at the police officer with my tear ducts about to explode and said, "Are you going to get these motherfuckers?" and he assured me that he would. That wasn't enough for me, and since 75% of the people on Stella's block wer either on drugs, or selling drugs, I seriously considered threatening people to get some answers, on some Hollywood dectective shit. I realized that my anger was out of control as I heard myself saying the following to Renee, right before I planned on getting some guns and doing lord knows what: "I'm going to find out who in the fuck murdered Stella! If I have to put a bullet in a dope fein or a dealer, fuck it, because no one would miss those motherfuckers anyway!!" As soon as those words left my mouth I realized that I had lost it, the look on Renee's face told me as much. Plus this isn't Hollywood, because in real life "good guy" vigilante's get shot the fuck up, and the last thing I would want is to break my mothers heart.(Even though I did try to beat the living shit out of the two individuals who "wouldn't cooperate" with the police. The cop shouldn't have told me that shit either, but I can't fault the guy in aiding some good old fashion "street justice") Stella's murderers, as of September 19, 2005 are still at large.
My Father: I have gone on and on about my father, to the point that many of you are probably saying "OK, we get it, you had issues with the old guy!!" If you say that, I would be forced to agree with you, but he is the main topic of conversation because a lot of what he did I feel has shaped the asshole that I am today. Granted, I am a asshole who didn't need any help being one, but his behavior definitely didn't help matters. Anyway, for a 2 week period during his last days in the hospital we had bonded in a way that we had never bonded before. We talked about the years he stayed in Japan and all the women he "dated" while he was there. I talked about all the shit I hid from him and my mother while i was a kid, we even watched movies together and hit on nurses as they came into his room. I knew that he was shitty to me before, and that I shouldn't forget any of that, but I was so starved for his affection and approval that I wanted to take in all the kindness that was coming in my direction. As he got sicker, the kindness wore off and we were back at square one with me feeling like a 27 year old "accident".
The first major heartbreak was when my father, grasping for every breath, apologized to me for how he treated me and told me that he loved me. It hurt me deeply because why did he need to be near death to express his love for me, I would have rather he not apologized and been consistent. Lastly, the incident that tore my heart to shreds is when he held my brothers hand and IN FRONT OF ME told him that he was the "good son" and he should take pride in the fact that he wasn't "a disappointment" like HumanityCritic. Right when he said that my mother immediately looked at me, I smiled back and nodded to her in a "don't worry about it" kind of way and silently left the room. My whole life, when he would do something horrible I would say to myself "I'm not doing that!!", referring to how I wouldn't treat my child. I sat down outside his room, laughed to myself to keep from crying and said, "I'm definitely not doing that!"

you have no idea how much i want to just hold you right now...
losses are tough, and that's why you have to be kind, and have to be a 100%, at all times with the people you love, cuz you just never know if that could be the last time with them, this world is so rough...
i'm so sorry that you had to hear those words from your father before his death...
- glory said...
when you mean heartbreak, you are not kidding. i can't imagine the loss you felt with stella, nor the pain you felt with your father. but i'm glad you can talk about it, and hope that you find healthy ways to deal with it.
That had to be tough dude, I sometimes forget that you can write touching stuff because you are so fucking funny. Thanks for sharing.

- aplomb said...
Man, what a way to start off Monday Morning...Those heartbreaks are ones you just can't bounce back from...Thanks for sharing!
- Amadeo said...
The worst Heartbreaks are not spawned from romantic love.
- brooklyn babe said...
Oh dayum Ike, not on a Monday, you know Tina gotta sing @ the club, and you get all upset when my mascara runs.
Thanks for sharing babes, here playing catch up.
And those two people were lucky to have you in their lives when they needed you most. You're Loved!
As for your Dad, you know they say, pride goes before a fall, I'm sure he saw a lot of him, in you.
- brooklyn babe said...
@ totolehero.... Ike you better let her know, Tina got something for her to hold aiiiigggghhhhttt!
*wink* (slides item back in mouth.. j/k, i'm lover, fighter is just my part time hussle, lol)
- CaffeineDiva said...
That's just great asshole, make me cry when I just ran out of tissues!
Damn... you want a hug?
Heartbreaking is kind of an understatement huh?
- kathi said...
Can't think of anything to say that wouldn't be an understatement. Thanks for sharing.
- totolehero said...
@brooklyn babe..
i don't think i understand your comment to me...
- Nia said...
That's some real shit. You have enough people offering you hugs, so I offer my respect. Because I'm sure a lot of other men wouldn't have come out of the other end of that still having compassion and respect.
- Arriet Till said...
Sometimes their is something in a person that reminds you of what you don't like about yourself. Even when you realize that is why you are treating someone wrong it can be hard to stop and treat them right.
Sometimes you live your childhood saying what you won't do when you have kids and you end up doing those things anyways cause that's all you know.
- Chele said...
I want to leave my mark because your words affected me, but I am speechless. If my dad did me like that I think I'd be an "asshole" too.
- piranha said...
HC, i know the whole laughing to prevent from crying thing. the pain actually goes even deeper when you don t release it with tears....I am so sincerely sorry to hear what happened to Stella. this is a real heartbreak. and it makes me understand that even I would become violent in such a situation
. i am all into peace and anti violence and all that stuff but as soon as it comes down to a person you love this way, you can t help it really but to feel it.
your father must have had issues himself. big issues. generosity of heart is something very fragile.........
- mrblackromantic said...
I hope that the men responsible for Stella's death only find peace when they are left in pieces...
I still haven't come to terms with my old man but I'm glad you can talk about... maybe one day I will too.

- msjaim said...
Here's a cyber hug man!!... Unfortunately I overstand what u speak of when having ur heart just fucking crushed!!!Not just w/ romantic love bcuz eventually( hopefully anyway) we all get over that. I had a cousin who was murdered down in Fl LAst yr.. he would have turned 20 on 8/30.. I was a second away from flying down there & participating in the "offing" of the individuals who did this b4 they were captured... Just some heart wrenching shit!....The father thing(but w/ my momma).. I overstand that too.. but Ill save that for my own blog :).. Lets pool our resources & get some group therapy yall.. BTW.. blogging is theraputic anyway!!!
- msjaim said...
Im just tripping though.. being the product of a parent who was verbally abusive.. I vow(ed) to never speak/belittle my kids(once I have some)like I was It is possible to stop the cycle!!!
- smallislandgirl said...
Had to put in my two cents and tell you thanks for sharing this you have a rich life.
I haven't been to the blog in a while, and that post made me glad I dropped in. That shit was real, brutal, but real. I felt it.
wow, I thought let me drop in for a good laugh and now I'm crying, that was deep man.
- Inside Man said...
I'm always amazed at how much you are willing to share of yourself. Great blog, that was from the heart.......
cliche but we need to own our own record labels and penetrate pop culture to the point that the generations upcoming represent themselves as one human body.
next remove religion. it is simply a means to brainwash the masses especially stupid ass white folks (the ones who even white people call stupid fucks) who dont know shit and will never know shit.
the world hasn't changed for shit since the days of alexander the great and the sick ass greeks. however before that the original man in africa had a system of trade that ranged many continents on a peaceful buzz (to a degree). now it is the age of caucaian world domination but have no fear for once we pass on and turn to dust mankind will identify more dominant races until the term 'race' is no longer recognised and difference between humans. my estimate 4000 AD minimum. see you then, peace from new zealand
- Butta said...
Wow, HC. I don't even know what to say. When I started reading I kinda knew that the Stella story wouldn't have a happy ending but I didn't know it was going to be that ending. My God. My heart goes out to you experiencing such profound loss.
- mai said...
yeah. kinda like when my mom told me age 12 that she wanted a boy.
sorry, mom. can't help you there.
but i don't even know what to tell you about Stella. what goes through people's minds when folks do crazy shit like that, i will never understand. just evil, for no reason at all.
but i knew you had a heart in there somewhere.
you'll be aight, baby, i just know it.
- rhein said...
"full blow attention whore" (smiling), i'm like the EXACT opposite.
- Mark Schannon said...
You dropped in on my blog & left a nice comment, so I thought I'd check yours out. A mite different, eh?
Your comments about your relationship with your father are heartbreaking.
I also had problems with my father for years, although, at the end, we resolved most of them. I think one of the hardest thing for kids to do is make the distinction between crazy parents and themselves...to see the problem as "their's", not yours. If you can do that, you win--if not, you're trapped.
Just from that one post, it's clear that your father's the asshole--not you. The challenge, once you're beyond childhood, is to erase all the negative tapes he laid down. Otherwise, you're never free--all your actions are merely reactions to what tape is playing. Good luck, man!
- Guessaurus said...
Wow HC - you know what? You are brave for sharing that, and this here is my respect to you! I will echo most of the people above in wishing you the best as you deal with those heartbreaks - oh, and an e-hug too!
- Jomama said...
Those two stories were so sad. I kinda wish I hadn't read the first one because the thought of someone being that inhumane breaks my heart too.
I'm sorry for your heartbreaks.
*Big Hug*
- Rowan said...
wow! I can only hope to match your level of ability at story telling, fact or fiction, you have the gift. I am currently writing a book about my own life, which I think is truly colourful at the least and interesting at best, but I wish I had your talents as you made me feel a part of what you must have felt. I have still put off writing my feelings about my own parents' deaths...maybe your inspiration has helped.
- introspectre said...
Oh, baby. There's nothing I can say. Just know my heart is broken for you.
- feels good b n FREE said...
you'll be a wonderful dad...
thank him for teaching you what NOt to do.
much luv to you
- Brother OMi said...
damn dude. thats rough..
man, i feel you. all my life i wanted my father's affection and still ain't get it. i feel you man
- ManNMotion said...
That's deep about Stella, I feel your pain on that one. Big time.
- Starla Spaulding said...
Stella sounded like she was a great lady. I was stunned to read how her life ended. There's a special hell for those murders. Vengence is mine sayeth the Lord.
In some ways your dad sounds similar to mine. It says alot that you were able to rise above what he pulled in the hospital room with your family there.
- lady in satin said...
I love reading your blog because you are so real and so raw. You spill your guts and don't care what people think about you, or how they see you as a person, and I admire that. I've had issues with my mom, so I can totally relate to you and your issues with your dad. But for me, its hard to talk about, so most of the time, I keep it to myself. However, I will say this. Don't let what happened to you as a child control who you are as an adult. Realize that what you were looking for from your father, that need will never be fulfilled. So don't look to fulfill it. I had to learn that the hard way...because like I said, I've been through some major shit with my mother. But I'm pretty sure you already know all of this. Goodluck with it!! It's a journey that will last a lifetime.
Stella reminds me of my Grandmother and my Great Grandmother (who both are still living by the grace of God). I love elderly people, and it breaks my heart when they are mistreated. I'm sorry that it happened to her because I know she didn't deserve it. And I'm sorry that you went through the mental anguish of losing a loved one, because I know how hard that can be. Take care, be strong, much love!

AO: Welcome to my AGD Collection thread! Below you will see my history of paintball guns I have bought and sold over the years. My collection is mainly guns based on the E-mag platform. If you like E-mags, SFLs, and Xmags you have come to the right place. I have 48 guns to post up so sit back and enjoy.
Please rate my thread!!!
Check back often .
Brass Eagle Talon: Still own*
*photo from google
I have to start somewhere. I played my first paintball game in 1999 and have been hooked ever since. I recently spoke with my friend who introduced me to paintball and told him that I still collected paintball guns. A few weeks ago he dropped by from Boston and gave me the Talon for a birthday present. It meant a lot to me. I'm actually trying to talk to him to go to Living Legends with me to play.
Tippmann 98: Still own*
After I started playing my parents bought me a Silver Tippmann 98. I couldn't stop thinking about how I could somehow mod it. Fast forward a year and you get a heavily modified Tippmann 98 with an RT trigger. The picture is from a tournament in Hopewell VA, photographed by the legendary Joshua Silverman. Josh was a friend of my friends dad so he hooked us up at the Pev's field in Woodbridge VA. Good times!!
Crossman 3357: Sold
*photo from google
I saw it and had to have it. I bought and sold it pretty quick though. Can't remember why. It still looks bad ass to me.
SFL E-mag #1 Still own*
This was my first AGD product I have ever bought. My friend had to write a paper for school and chose to write it about paintball. He was able to call up Tom Kaye and interview him for 30 minutes over the phone. After I heard that story I thought, "Man, that company sounds pretty cool" a few months of lurking and I sign up for AO in March of 2002. Later that year I was able to purchase this SFL E-mag for $800.
Lasoya Intimidator: Sold
For an entire summer I saved up all my money to buy my first $1000 paintball gun. The gun I chose was the Lasoya Intimidator.
Yellow Lasoya Intimidator:
Hopefully you are starting to see a pattern. For whatever reason I really have the urge to customize my guns. I read online about anodizing and decided to send my parts off to PrecisionPB.com. Unfortunately, I learned a lesson about "dissolution." PrecisionPB was the same company that did the anodizing for Oddpb.com. At the time when I used them they were a relatively small garage anodizer. It really showed.
Greenish Lasoya Intimidator:
Round number 2!! After some BS with PrecisionPB I sent back all my parts and got them redone again. At this time a Black to Red CnC X-mag came up for sale and I decided to test the waters in a trade. I let the guy choose what color he wanted and had Pev's rebuild the gun.
Black to Red Fade X-mag: Sold
It took a while, but I was able to trade my Lasoya for a Black to Red Fade Xmag. I can't remember the serial off the top of my head, but it is on Xmagworld.com. This X-mag begins my downward spiral...
NXT Shocker: Sold
I was bored on pbnation.com and decided I needed a loaner gun. Lol.
Bob Long Marq 6: Sold
Another purchase on pbnation.com. It was a pretty good deal so I went for it. The seller disappeared for a month and after a few phone calls to paypal, his mother-in-law (lol), and the PD I was able to get the gun.
SFL Emag #2: Still own*
I caught the SFL bug and decided to look for another one. I posted a WTB thread on pblegion.com and someone had a polished silver SFL for sale. I decided to offer him a NXT Shocker, Marq 6, and cash to complete the deal. I was a little worried I would be outbidded by former X-mag collector A-Tach-One.
Rex M2 "Autococker": Sold
My friends wanted to play pump so I decided to get a cheap knock-off autococker. I had a few good games with it, but sold it. (If you haven't noticed, yes I am "bunny5". I really picked out a great username... lol)
The legendary "Space Mag": Still own*
I really need to update the Spacemag Appreciation Thread.... I'm still the owner of one of the original Spacemags created by Allen Hastie. Maghog posted this up for sale years ago and I quickly purchased it. It has a really cool history and was actually seized by the government for a short period of time. I actually played with this gun for a few games at Tunaball this year. I threw a VL3000 on top of it and it was a terrible idea for speedball.
Tunaman Karta E-mag: Sold
I purchased this Karta and played with it for a while. It was a real show piece. I broke my cardinal rule of automags, but we won't talk about that here.... :-(
Standard "Euro" X-mag Project: Sold
I bought a raw body from Ruler_mark and decided to design my paintball gun around the green european Xmags that OmniM use to own. I decided to use Gruntbull Anodizing since the last company didn't work out so great.
Gruntbull Euro X-mag:
A few other guys went through the same thing I did with Gruntbull that year. It was a pretty ugly battle since I posted my review on AO and PBN. I gave him two chances to fix the mistake and this was the result. If I remember correctly he called me an *******. lol.
PK Selective Euro X-mag:
I used PK Selective to test the anodizing quality because I was going to send my SFL emags in and didn't want any troubles. I think they delivered. I also had SPD color match the grips and the halo shells as well. I really regret selling this beast.
Kapp Flame Pump Autococker: Sold
I saw this posted on MCB and I really liked the colors. I thought to myself, "you never know, you may need a pump again."
Tequila Fade Euro X-mag: Sold
I started to track down Xmags in my free time and saw someone from PBN post this in a thread. I sent him a PM and offered him the Flame Autococker and some cash. He agreed and he shipped me this X-mag all the way from Poland. It was my first package I had to sent to a place where I had absolutely no clue what I was writing on the package. I'm glad it got there okay. I did have to sell it later to fund a few more projects of mine.
Dallara: Sold
I went looking for a Dallara body kit and decided to make a mech gun. I used PK Selective again for the anodizing and really enjoyed the build. Hopefully the new owner will post in the thread to say hello.
Green ULE E-mag: Sold
Dust Red SFL E-mag
I think this was a parts build. Buying and trading automags, you sometimes get extras. I decided to build on E-mag around it and had theannosmith.com do the anodizing. It wasn't 100% because the anodizer didn't take into account the different types of aluminum. If I remember correctly, I tried to sell this marker as a whole, but I had to part it out.
68 Automag CF00714: Donated for Charity
Classicmagger sold the gun to A-Tach-One and I bought it off of Eric when he liquidated his collection. It was the first Automag Level to be in production and it was purchased in 1991 in the UK brand new from Tom Kaye himself. I decided to donate it to the SoCal Cure Ball. I sent it over to TK and he signed it and put it up for auction. I wonder how much money it got.
Dust Red SFL E-mag: Sold
It all started with the idea that I could put together a thread on automags.org and see if I can help find most of the SFL Emags that still exist in the world. Like fellow AOers before, like Zakvetter and KayleAGD I thought I could organize all the data on the different forums/databases into a central thread on automags.org. I started to search through old AO posts and found an interesting "Searching for all SFL Emags" post by KayleAGD. On this list was the blue prints of how to find out where the markers are now located. While going through the list compiling information I stumbled upon a SFL owner that was never on AO but his dad was a member. The list included his name (Mike) so I decided to send his dad an email to see if Mike still owned the marker.
A month goes by without any email back, I figured the email address probably expired and that would be the end of that lead. Sure enough, a few weeks later I get a message from his Dad giving me Mikes new email address and I decided to draft an email asking questions about his SFL and possibly buying it as well.
Mike replied back in a day and sent me pictures of his SFL Emag. I was shocked to actually get a reply along with pictures of his actual marker, a dust red SFL. We exchange a few more emails and we worked out a deal for his Original Dust Red SFL with matching Barrel.
Later I sold this off to a person on AO. At one point I had 4 SFL emags and decided this one had to go. It was a really fun experience and can't wait to find another one. I really hope the new owner enjoys it.
Dust Blue SFL E-mag: Sold
This SFL was for sale on the market a few years back when I didn't have a steady job to afford paintball guns. I remember I tried to scrape up enough money to make an offer for this Dust Blue SFL but I was out bid by A-Tach-One. For a few years A-Tach-One owned the SFL Emag until December of 2009.
As soon as I saw this SFL posted up I had to make a "healthy" offer. Luckily I was able to buy it from Eric and was able to track down one of the SFL emags I attempted to buy years before. Eric decided to add a clamping feedtube to the marker and I tracked down a Dust Silver Dye Back with a Dye 14in Dust Blue Front. My most favorite part of the SFL is the original box that it came with. It was just so crappy it is amazing that anyone would actually keep it to store an SFL inside of it.
Later I sold this off to Rudi overseas and I think he still owns it. It is the most original SFL emag I have ever seen.
Empire Mini: Sold
Another pbnation deal. I really just needed another Halo B and found a great deal I couldn't pass up.
720 X-mag: Sold
This is a 720 Xmag created by Tunaman in one of the original batches of Xmags in 2003. Brad Palooza (who was an owner of the Paintball video company 720) decided to have two Xmag's custom made with the company colors... black, grey, and red.
I purchased this marker in 2010 for a great price and it is in great condition. The marker has the original box, parts, and chronograph receipt. The previous owner, A-Tach-One decided to perform a CCM Clamping Feedtube mod and also installed a Fireblade Trigger.
Another gun I really hated to part with. It was such a nice fade. I'm glad to see it is still floating around on AO.
Pewter X-mag: Sold
This is a Custom Xmag built by leftover parts from my SFL builds. When I was piecing together my SFLs I wanted each part to be 100% alot of my trades over the years resulted in parts that were not up to par so I decided to grab a Xmag body and got lasermygun.com to perform the anodizing.
The anodizing didn't quite come out the way I would hope. There was a bit of dissolution in the parts and you can see that they pooled on parts of the marker including the bottom of the battery pack, and the CCM Feedtube Ring. The marker also comes with a Warp Breach, Black Tunablade, Bob Long ASA, and a green LED screen. It was a fun build, and this is a marker that I will let my friends use on the field without worrying about them getting it scratched :-) I later sold this on AO to fund some more of my projects.
Black E-mag:Still own*
I needed a stock e-mag for a project of mine. I figured it was a lot cheaper to buy an entire e-mag instead of all the misc. parts. I bought pretty much everything except the body.
Blue to Silver Fade X-mag:Still own*
Here is my $450 Craigslist X-mag. It was used and abused and shoved into a box and shipped over to me from FL. It is currently going through restoration.
Tac-One E-mag: Still own in some form or another...
I needed a couple more parts and jumped on the chance to make a deal to get this for $450. My buddy's gf used this at tunaball and really enjoyed it. It was later parted out to complete my other projects.
Orange SFL E-mag:Still own*
This is actually the same SFL as my first one up top. I went ahead and sent it over to PK Selective for anodizing. This is my primary marker. It had a custom triggernomics trigger on it, but I sent it over to another AOer to tinker with it. I was pretty happy with the end result. Pictured above is me playing at Tunaball. It was a blast!
Clear/Black Sponge with Red Splash SFL E-mag:Still own*
This is the second SFL e-mag from earlier. I sent this SFL emag a year after I got the orange one done. It came out perfect. This is my museum quality show piece. It has tons of extra parts and I went way overboard with it. It also has a triggernomics trigger that took Dan 40 hours to create. I think this is my only MoTM winner. lol.
Cosmos E-mag: Sold
Here is another custom creation. I was attempting to put together E-mag #33, but the anodizer was having problems. Instead of having a crappy ano job I decided to let him do whatever he wanted with the design. This was done by FX anodizing. I was able to trade the e-mag for the Gloss Black X-mag above.
Gloss Black X-mag: Still own*
I bought this X-mag this past year and decided to turn it into a "Shatner" xmag. I've been researching the shatner xmags off and on for a while and realized it would be easier to find William Shatner than the 3 xmags that exist. I went to a con and got him to sign it.
My idea for this gun is to have a custom battery housing milled with "Shatner The Supreme" on it.
E-mag Prototype EM00035 Still own*
You have seen some form of this gun earlier, I found two e-mag valves that were prototypes years ago. I went ahead and did a full restoration on them. If you are interested to see the build thread here.
E-mag Prototype EM00033 Still own*
Here is another cool prototype e-mag. This was Darkrippers old e-mag from 2001ish. If you are interested check out the build thread here.
"John Sosta" Dark Tequila X-mag: Still own*
I saw this posted on AO and quickly saw the milled gripframe. I have been obsessing over the "John Sosta" style xmags ever since I saw pictures from Warpig in 2002. I decided to do a full restoration. Take a look at the build thread here.
Shockwave E-mag Project: Still own*
Here is another project that is currently being held hostage. I keep getting the "run around" from the guy restoring this for me. I have been waiting since February and have heard very little about it. It should look pretty nice once it is completed.

By most projections, West Side's Lady Eagles were not supposed to be alive in the regional tournament, not with six sophomores and two freshmen receiving the majority of the playing time for a team that finished sixth in conference.
By most projections, West Side's Lady Eagles were not supposed to be alive in the regional tournament, not with six sophomores and two freshmen receiving the majority of the playing time for a team that finished sixth in conference. The youngest team in the Greers Ferry Lake area nearly took another step, battling regional champion Wonderview down to the wire, before falling 46-40 on Friday in the first round of the 1A, Region 3 Tournament in Greers Ferry. "I am super proud for the season these girls had," said West Side Coach Shane Davis. "We said we wanted to be playing good in the non-conference season, better in the conference season and our best in the postseason. "And because the girls bought into playing hard and playing defense every night they achieved that no doubt," emphasized Davis. "I am looking forward to the next couple of years with the bulk of our team, [including] five sophomores and a lot of freshmen back. I think the foundation has been laid for us and now we need to keep working in the off-season to get better," Davis added. Wonderview, which improved to 28-7 after beating No. 1 ranked Mount Vernon-Enola in the semifinals and Sacred Heart in the championship game, jumped out to a 15-5 lead after one quarter of play as Abbey Sensabaugh, Bailey Zimmerman and Ali Harris each sank a three-pointer, while versatile forward Laken Ward added four points. Trailing 23-13 late in the second quarter, West Side (14-21) closed the first half with a 5-0 spurt, beginning when point guard Abby Turney swiped a steal and cruised in for a layup. Following a free throw by forward Alexis Barnes, center Gracie Waters came up with a steal and finished on the offensive end with a follow shot at the horn, trimming the Lady Eagles' deficit to 23-28 at halftime. West Side quickly tied the game early in the third quarter as Waters scored deep in the paint and Turney drilled a three-pointer from left elbow off a crosscourt assist from guard Whitney England. The Lady Daredevils reclaimed the lead with three consecutive free throws, including two from Zimmerman, but the Lady Eagles stayed close as Waters scored from right block over two defenders. With under two minutes left in the third quarter, West Side pulled within a bucket when forward Ashley Gentry ripped a three-pointer from right wing off an assist from Turney. After Ward responded with a bucket in the paint for the Lady Daredevils, Gentry sank a free throw, leaving Wonderview with a 36-33 heading into the final eight minutes of play. Wonderview stretched its lead to eight early in the fourth quarter on five straight points from Harris, including a three-pointer on the Lady Daredevils' opening possession. West Side regrouped and scored seven unanswered over the next three minutes, starting when forward Alexis Barnes dropped a runner in the lane. Turney then poured in five straight, including a steal and layup, plus a three-pointer from right elbow, slicing the Lady Eagles' deficit to one at 41-40. In the final 2:07, Zimmerman sank 4 of 5 free throws and the Lady Daredevils held West Side to only one basket down the stretch, escaping with a 46-40 win. Zimmerman and Ward each scored 14 points to lead Wonderview, while Harris added nine. Turney pumped in a game-high 20 points for West Side � five in each quarter, Waters followed with 10 points and eight rebounds, while forward Melissa Hendrickson grabbed seven rebounds. West Side finished 16 of 39 from the field, including 6 of 18 from beyond the arc. Wonderview, which collected six more offensive rebounds (13) than West Side, sank 12 of 17 free throws, while the Lady Eagles hit 2 of 7 shots from the charity stripe.

The topics of interest that will crop up during the Colorado Legislature's upcoming session are well known: civil unions, implementation of the state's groundbreaking recreational marijuana law, and gun control.
But several representatives and senators in the delegation from Boulder and Broomfield counties said they will also be pressing more parochial concerns under the dome, like hydraulic fracturing, energy efficiency building measures, and school choice.
The 2013 Colorado General Assembly begins Wednesday and lasts through early May.
Incoming Rep. Michael Foote, D-Lafayette, said he would devote much of his energy during his inaugural term to oil and gas issues. Fracking, which involves injecting a water-sand-chemical mixture into the ground to extract gas trapped in rock, has generated a tremendous amount of controversy throughout eastern Boulder County as well as throughout the rest of the state.
Foote said he and his colleagues in the House will look at what constitutes an appropriate level of local oversight when it comes to drilling.
"There could be legislation regarding local control," he said.
Foote, a deputy district attorney with Boulder County, also said he will work on a bill that would provide tax incentives to people who complete energy efficiency upgrades at their homes.
"That's not only good for the environment, it's a job creator," he said.
Sen.-elect Matt Jones, who after two years is leaving the House District 12 seat Foote is assuming, will also hone in on energy efficiency legislation in the Senate. He plans to introduce a "ClimateSmart-type" bill that would help commercial building owners tap funds for efficiency improvements.
Jones, who served three terms in the House starting in 1987, also thinks it's important to show voters that state agencies and universities are accounting for the water and energy savings they obtain in green-rated buildings -- and he plans to push a bill that does just that.
"We want to prove that the taxpayers are getting their money's worth," he said.
With newfound Democratic majorities in both the House and the Senate -- as well as a Democratic governor in power -- Jones said voters can expect to see more renewable energy and mass transit bills work their way through the State House.
"It's going to be a really busy year," he said.
Undoubtedly countering Jones in the Senate will be Vicki Marble, R-Fort Collins, who in Senate District 23 will represent Broomfield this session. It's her first time in elected office, and along with Foote, will be the only fresh face in the legislature from the Boulder and Broomfield counties delegation.
Marble, who owns a liquor store near Fort Collins, said she will relish playing the foil to any gun control legislation that gets introduced in the Senate.
"I've been deluged with emails regarding our 2nd Amendment rights (to bear arms)," she said. "I will not advocate for criminals by taking away gun rights from law-abiding citizens."
Marble also wants to pursue a school choice bill that would grant tax credits to families choosing to send their children to non-public schools. There are other states in the country that have put in place such programs successfully, she said.
"They get to go to a school of their choice," she said. "It's no longer a cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all program."
Sen. Rollie Heath, D-Boulder, agreed that education -- and education funding -- is at the root of everything. The veteran legislator said it's telling that the share of state funding for the CU system is now less than 6 percent of the university's budget.
"We need to grow our own workforce," he said. "If we're not funding education, it's hard for us to attract the kind of businesses we want."
And to do that, Heath said, will require unfurling the fiscal puzzle Colorado has created for itself with conflicting tax and spending measures, like TABOR, the Gallagher Amendment and Amendment 23. That won't be easy, he said.

Did you ever wonder why honey is kosher? We dip apples in honey for Rosh Hashanah, and many have seen the custom of placing dots of honey on alef-bet letters at a boy's upsherin (first haircut). Yet, no other product from a nonkosher animal is itself kosher. Even the rabbis of the Talmud, Rabbi David Pardo said at the second annual Shoresh Food Conference on Jan. 27, wondered why it was allowed.
Rabbi Pardo spoke alongside beekeeper Fred Davis in a session called, "Oy Rabbi, Bees Make My Honey!" The Talmud gives two answers, he said. First, the bees aren't manufacturing the honey from their bodies – they just transport and store it, and second, because the Torah expressly permits it – in a lengthy, indirect way.
Rabbi Pardo of The House, a meeting place for Jewish students and young professionals, pointed out that the one reference we might think offers blanket permission to eat honey – the verses that call Israel a "land of milk and honey" – actually refer to sticky-sweet date nectar.

Understanding Conservation of Mass in Chemical Reactions
Grade: 11
Often students cannot understand from chemical formulas how atoms exist in compounds, and how they are rearranged during reaction. Furthermore, the concept of balancing reactions eludes them when they cannot actually see the individual atoms. To illustrate a reaction for them, They are split into groups and given "bingo" type chips of different colors. They then put them into groups as reactants, representing the compounds that enter the reaction. They will then break the bonds of the reactants and attempt to rebond them as products. In most reactions, they will see that without balancing they do not have enough "chips" to complete the reaction. However, if they add more of one or more of the reactants, they can then complete the reaction because they now have enough "chips". They will then transfer findings to a sheet, written as a balanced formula equation.
Understanding the Law of Conservation of Mass
Grade: 11
Using the COW, students will use either the program FRAMES or the flip camera and movie maker (their choice) to animate a chemical reaction in order to illustrate that all atoms involved are present at the beginning and end of the reaction, and that matter is neither created or destroyed.

TORONTO — Circle of Care volunteers and staff recently delivered thousands of "emergency" meals to 381 Holocaust survivors.
The recipients are clients who receive services through a Claims Conference grant that funds organizations providing essential services around the world for Jewish victims of Nazi persecution.
The Claims Conference works closely with these agencies to develop strategies to keep Holocaust victims healthy and fed, to deliver care in their homes, to bring them socialization opportunities, and to obtain government benefits they may be entitled to.
Circle of Care, on behalf of the Claims Conference, provides homemaking and personal care, Kosher Meals on Wheels and transportation to eligible survivors, as well as emergency assistance to Hungarian survivors.
Arnold Foss, Circle of Care's director of communications, said the 2,286 meals – each recipient received six meals intended for either lunch or dinner – came frozen and are meant to be kept in the freezer for emergencies.
"In the event of bad weather, there will always be food in the house," he said.
The recipients also received a small Chanukah bag funded by United Way, which included Chanukah gelt and a clementine orange, "as an added little treat. Small things make a big difference. The meals were definitely well received," he said.
The volunteers and staff took their children with on deliveries, Foss said, so it was a good opportunity for the seniors to enjoy the youngsters. "It was also a learning experience for the kids. It was a good family experience."
He said that the agency plans on making this an annual event, "as long as we have funding."

Red Sox - 110 010 030 - 6 10 0Jeremy Hermida's three-run, opposite-field double off Jesse Crain with two outs in the eighth was big hit of the day.
Twins - 002 000 010 - 3 9 0
Marco Scutaro, Dustin Pedroia, and Victor Martinez each had two hits; FY hit his 4th dong of the young season, in the fifth, making him 8-for-his-last-13 at that point. David Ortiz smacked a line drive double to left in the ninth, ending the day on a high note after two strikeouts, a walk, and an outfield fly.
In the Boston eighth, Yook singled and one out later, Adrian Beltre ripped a double down the left field line. Drew was intentionally walked to load the bases for Hermida, who had grounded out to second twice and lined to short.
Although Lackey (6.2-7-2-4-2, 107) had four walks (three of them to Denard Span), he was never in much trouble outside of the third. Bot's control was shaky in the ninth (he franked Span and Justin Morneau), but stranded them at second and third.
Jacoby Ellsbury is not in the lineup.
The Deadball Red Sox are 2nd in the AL in slugging percentage (.479, .003 behind the Yankees), 4th in batting average, and 5th in OBP (despite being last in walks).
The Red Sox have been the visiting team in the first official game at five ballparks. They have lost all five games.

Scott Appel knows almost every detail of the Lower North Fork fire in Jefferson County.
The blaze started from a controlled burn by state foresters to reduce wildfire risks but exploded in high winds. On March 26, the mistakes of people trained to know better took the life of Appel's wife, Ann, and destroyed his home and the inventory of his equipment business, while charring 395 acres he had bought over years.
But as he stood amid the rubble on the afternoon before Thanksgiving, a question froze him in his steps. What was his favorite memory of his former home?
He turned away, toward the ashen valley. After two minutes of silence, he waved his hand down the hillside and walked in that direction, never answering.

Appel and his sons, 19-year-old Austin and 21-year-old Evan, will spend Thanksgiving with Scott's sister, away from their rented home in Evergreen.
As he walked across his ruined home-site, he talked about the one detail he most wants to know: the names of those who made the decision to do a controlled burn during one of the driest Marches on record, despite extremely high winds in the forecast.
"I bet the people who caused this are going to be sitting down for Thanksgiving dinner with their families tomorrow," he said, adding a few minutes later, "Nobody missed a paycheck because of this."
If the holidays celebrate peace and joy, facing them after a devastating loss feels like anything but a celebration, indicated more than a dozen survivors who were interviewed this week.
Still, for some, their tragedy brought into focus what's really important — family, tradition and loves.
Byron and Rebekah Largent this week were planning a joyous holiday in a rented home with decorations donated by a church.
"The community reached out and really provided for us," said Byron Largent, whose family lost their home in the Waldo Canyon fire in June "We're thankful for that."
Devastating losses have strained Colorado's capacity for sorrow this year. Six people died in a state that had not lost a life to a wildfire since 1999, as hundreds of homes and hundreds of thousand of acres burned.
Additionally, 12 people were killed and 58 more injured in the Century Aurora 16 shooting on July 20. And in October, a Westminster neighborhood was stunned by the abduction, molestation and dismemberment of 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway.
Each year, untold numbers of people who are suffering emotionally put on a brave face during the holidays, said Mara Kailin, a clinical psychologist at Aurora Mental Health Center.
"Even when there's not a lot going on, the holidays are stressful for a lot of people," she said. "And if you add into the mix the loss of a loved one or the loss of home, it becomes incredibly difficult."
Kailin suggested "re-imagining the holidays," by taking a trip or volunteering, for example.
"The holidays can be an opportunity to start new traditions," she said. "You need time to reflect on your loss and feel that sadness, and then start a tradition that incorporates the memory of their loved one or their loss when you're ready."
The Largents are ready.
The Waldo Canyon fire tore through the Largents' Colorado Springs neighborhood on their daughter Emma's first birthday.
"This will be the first Christmas she can really celebrate," Byron Largent said. "We're really looking forward to that."
But feelings of loss still come in waves, he admits.
"Every once in a while my wife or I will think of something we're not ever going to see anymore; it's kind of a feeling of sadness you get," he said.
The Waldo Canyon fire burned 347 homes, 18,247 acres and took the lives of William and Barbara Everett.
Investigators say the fire was human-caused, but they have not found the human who caused it.
Kim Dawes of Colorado Springs lost her husband in April, about two months before the fire consumed her Mountain Shadows home.
"In some ways it's a clean start," she said. "Things carry memories, but they're just things. You can replace them. The feelings follow you around, and you don't know how you're going to feel. It's just like something that jumps out and scares you. I don't know when that stops happening."
Bill and Angie Hayes saw the High Park fire as a sign to move on from the home they had rented in Larimer County for five years. They moved back to Missouri
Linda Steadman, 62, died in her cabin during the High Park fire on June 9. The fire burned 87,284 acres and 259 homes.
"It's like they say, you have to put the past behind you," Hayes said. "It was a bad year; a lot of people got hit a lot worse than us.
"We could just drive away and start over."
The Lower North Fork fire that killed Ann Appel also killed neighbors Sam and Linda Lucas, who were 77 and 76, respectively. Sam Lucas Jr. said Tuesday that November and December is a tough stretch. His father's birthday is in early November, and his mother's in late December. In between there are the holidays his parents loved, usually celebrating with more than 20 friends and family at their home for laughter and feasts.
The family feels the pain of missing all those events and this year will "just kind of lay low a bit," he said.
Like Appel, he's bothered by how and why his parents died, the result of government error, and the steady pressure to carry on bravely. Losing a loved one in the public eye to tragedy is different from grieving privately after a more usual death.
"I feel sorry for the victims of all the fires. I feel sorry for all the victims of the theater shootings, and Jessica's family," he said. "Because I can relate to their feeling of tragedy, to how that loss feels. I understand what they're going through.
"It's totally different than what I could have imagined back in February. Now I know there are a lot of faces behind those names."

The OUR Center is $700,000 shy of breaking ground to begin renovations of the new program services and administration center at 220 Collyer St.
The capital campaign, which launched about two years ago, needs $2.2 million of the $4.2 million goal to begin construction, said executive director Edwina Salazar.
About $1.5 million has been raised so far, she said.
To donate
Visit: http://ourcenterflashmob.org
A flash mob at Lucky's Market in Longmont has spurred a rise in donations through the OUR Center's website, bringing in at least $10,000 for the nonprofit in less than a month.
The surprise performance was organized by members of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and featured the church choir, the Silver Creek High School drum line and singers from the Rocky Mountain Center for Music Arts singing the Beatles' "Help."
Longmont videographer Payton Peterson filmed the performance, which took place Dec. 14, and uploaded the footage to Youtube with a plea to donate to the OUR Center, which provides emergency services and promotes self-sufficiency among the homeless and local residents in need.
Since the video was uploaded, Peterson said, there have been more than 24,000 views and more than 2,000 visits to http://ourcenterflashmob.org -- a website created to promote the video and the OUR Center.
"It was just a creative way to help them (the OUR Center) reach new donors and build awareness and gather what they really need -- cash," said Phil Caragol, one of the flash mob organizers.
Although $10,000 in donations can be traced to the flash mob through the website or notes crediting the video for the donation, the effort could be responsible for as much as $30,000, said Edwina Salazar, executive director of the OUR Center.
Since the flash mob, $30,000 has been donated through the OUR Center's website, an increase over what the organization saw during the same period last year, Salazar said. Some of the donations are likely due to a typical influx connected to the holidays and the beginning of a year, Salazar said, but there is no way to be sure.
"We have no way of knowing if every donation was from that project. If donors didn't designate that on the form, then we don't know how they discovered us," Salazar said. "We do know that it was a highly creative campaign and we are having a more successful year this year."
Donations from the flash mob campaign are being used to buy food, Salazar said.

The news of rock promoter Barry Fey's death spread quickly on Sunday evening, in Colorado and beyond.
When Colorado governor John Hickenlooper opened an email with the news on Sunday, it took a few seconds to register.
"Reading the news that he'd died, it was like, 'He can't die'," Hickenlooper said on Monday morning. "He's a part of the firmament. He's part of the social architecture of Colorado. He is the foundation for the musical architecture of Colorado."
The legendary Fey, credited as one of the craftiest promoters in the history of the live music industry, died Sunday at 73.
On Monday afternoon, his family and close friends said there would soon be a private funeral and asked for privacy, via Fey's still-active Facebook page.
"We will be planning a celebration of his life in the coming days and will let everyone know so that you can celebrate with us the amazing things he accomplished," the Facebook post read.
The post went on to ask that instead of flowers a donation be made in his name to the Preserve the Rocks Fund, a Red Rocks-focused maintenance account, via Arts & Venues, 1245 Champa St., Denver, Colorado, 80204.

Perl 6
Perl Lookup Table: Revision 54
Overview - Chapter 0:Intr, 1:Hist, 2:Design, 3:Var, 4:Op, 5:IO, 6:{}, 7:Sub, 8:OOP, 9:Rx - Appendix A:Index, B:Tables, C:Best of, D:Delta, E:Links
, or secondary sigils. They follow after a $ (scalar), @ (array) or % (hash) primary sigil, and mark special namespaces or variables with special meanings and properties.
$foo . . . ordinary scoping (no twigil)
Special Variables
$_. . . . . . . . . context variable
The following pseudo-package names are reserved at the front of a name:
Object Types
Any scalar variable (arrays and hashes are just collections of scalars) can hold any type of data. Nevertheless Perl knows for many data types specific classes (known as data types) that can handle them.
Bit. . . . . . Perl single bit (allows traits, aliasing, undef, etc.)
low level data types
This is more low level than the last table. These types are more meant to give the compiler optimizing hints.
Table of precedence
A . Level . . . . . . . . . . . . Examples
They appear mostly before regular operators and give them different meaning or greater range.
op= . . . self assign . . known from P5, $L <op>= $R equals $L = $L op $R
Unicode operators
The two hyper operators can be written with the Unicode "chevron" signs (also documented as "French Quotes") or with double less than or greater than signs (documented as "Texas Quotes").
« aka <<
Filetest Ops
:r . . . file is readable by effective uid/gid.
Quoting Ops
The basic quoting operator (Q) does nothing, just taking literally what you quoted as a string. But with several adverbs, it behaves like the well known following ops:
Text Processing
Quoting Adverbs
There are a lot more adverbs to fine tune your quoting. The Adverbs can used with any quoting operator like: q:s/.../.
Escape Sequences
These Sequences will be evalueated to invisible control chars, if the ":b" aka ":backslash" quoting Adverbs are set (included in "", qq and <<>>)
\a . . . . . . . . BELL
Regex primitives
\0[ ... ] . Match a character given in octal (brackets optional).
Regex Modifier
Stay behind the regex op and change the behaviour of the regex, search scope, etc.
Flow Control
Jump Commands
Closure Traits
Every block can contain special named blocks (some are only for loops) that are started at certain times. They are traits (compile time property) of a block object and can modify behaviour of that block. Those marked with a * can also be used within an expression.
BEGIN {...}* at compile time, ASAP, only ever runs once

More than 800 volunteers joined Westminster police officers, firefighters and the FBI in a massive search for a 10-year-old girl who disappeared Friday morning during the first three blocks of her walk to school.
Late Saturday night, police said they will bring a new team of search dogs in to help look for the child.
A helicopter was used in the search. Bloodhounds were used through most of Friday night. Although the dogs picked up a scent, it could have been older than Friday morning, Westminster police spokeswoman Cheri Spottke said.
"There were no strong hits," she said.
A dive team went out on Ketner Lake in late Saturday afternoon to search with sonar for a body in the water, Westminster police spokesman Trevor Materasso said. They found nothing and left the lake around 5 p.m.

- View the FBI Denver press release on the case, Oct. 11.
Police say they are following up on more than 100 tips about where Jessica may be.
Police are also scanning social media for information about the girl's possible whereabouts.
Late Saturday evening, the Westminster Police Department sent out a note saying no additional volunteers are needed to help search for the child Sunday.
More than 800 citizen volunteers showed up in the bitter cold and freezing drizzle to search for Jessica on Saturday. Twenty-six times, teams of 50 people were sent out to search areas on foot. The search area covered was from 92nd Avenue to 112th Avenue, Indiana Street to Wadsworth Boulevard.
"This is an absolutely unbelievable outpouring of support," Westminster Police Chief Lee Birk told a room of 150 volunteers waiting to load buses while more than 350 others stomped through nearby fields. "We accomplished more today than we thought we ever could. We certainly did not anticipate this kind of outpouring of support."
Still, police urged concerned citizens to keep up with the case by following twitter.com/WestminsterPD and watching the Westminster PD Facebook page at facebook.com/pages/Westminster-PD/141296864304 for additional requests for help finding the girl.
Jessica Ridgeway's mother stood in front of their home at 10768 Moore St. Friday morning and watched until her daughter was out of sight on her way to Witt Elementary School, 10255 W. 104th Drive, Spottke said. That was around 8:30 a.m.
Jessica routinely meets classmates at Chelsea Park, three blocks away, and then the classmates together walk the rest of the way to school together.
But on Friday morning the friends never saw Jessica, Spottke said. Jessica didn't make it to school, Materasso said.
An Amber Alert, which is a national emergency notification, went out late Friday night after Westminster police were contacted. Also, 12,775 homes received calls from the police department notifying residents of the Amber Alert.
"It's very concerning," Spottke said. "She is still a young child. Mom is very distraught."
Police investigators and volunteers collected socks and other items near Chelsea Park Saturday, Materasso said. The socks were placed in evidence bags.
"We can't say at this point whether these are or are not related," he said. Detectives will show the articles of clothing to Jessica's mother and see if they belong to the girl, he added.
Jessica is 4 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 80 pounds and has blond shoulder-length hair. She has blue eyes and was wearing a black jacket and pink-and-purple glasses.
Spottke said police and firefighters went door-to-door Friday along the route from Jessica's house to the school, asking residents for permission to search inside their homes and in their yards.
All but a few people complied, she said. Some people said they have small children and asked authorities to return the next morning when the kids were awake to search, she said. In other cases, no one was home.
"We searched all night," Spottke said at 7:15 a.m. "We've switched up teams and we're going out again right now."
Authorities have greatly expanded the search area after many more volunteers arrived than were expected. The second shift of searchers will return to the homes where no one answered previously.
Police are reviewing past incidents for a possible connection, including the attempted abduction on Memorial Day of a 22-year-old female jogger at Ketner Lake in Westminster. A man tried to put a chemical-soaked rag over her mouth. The woman was able to fight her way free and called 911.
"It's definitely something that we're looking at," Spottke said.
The woman's assailant was described as white, about 5 feet, 8 inches tall with brown hair and an average build. He was wearing a blue cap, a black T-shirt, jeans and small rimmed sunglasses.
Another jogger was chased by a man with a similar description in July 2010, police said, warning those who use the area.
Authorities have checked up on every registered sex offender in the area to confirm their location. Flyers are being posted at businesses up and down Wadsworth Boulevard and left at residences.
Jessica's mother, who works a night shift, had slept through the call advising that the girl had not arrived at Witt Elementary and so the search did not begin until around 4:30 p.m. Friday
Officials contacted the child's father, who lives in Missouri. Materasso said the family in Missouri attended a child custody hearing there concerning Jessica Friday. He said he does not know the outcome of the hearing, but detectives do not believe it's related to Jessica's disappearance.
"At this time we don't have any indication he is involved in any way," Spottke said.
Jessica is a good child and a good student, Spottke said. Officials contacted every child in her class and all friends to see if she may have gone to one of their homes, but there was no sign of her.
The other adults in Jessica's home include her grandmother and aunt.

OTTAWA — The federal taxpayers' ombudsman says the Canada Revenue Agency does, indeed, have a "systemic issue" with taxpayers wrongfully declared dead, even though the CRA says that determination has not yet been made.
In an interview Thursday with Postmedia News, federal taxpayers' ombudsman Paul Dube, said his office has nearly completed a special report with recommendations for government, that will be publicly released, on the issue of taxpayers wrongfully declared deceased.
His office found the issue, while only happening in a relatively small number of cases, has been raised enough times and has potential to cause financial and emotional hardship that it should be considered systemic for the Canada Revenue Agency.
"We found that to be a systemic issue," Dube said. "The impact, when it does happen, can be quite significant on an individual, on a taxpayer."
His office says a systemic issue is one that if not quickly identified and properly addressed, has the potential to recur and have a negative impact on taxpayers.
When someone is wrongfully declared dead, bank accounts can be closed and payments from governments and other entities suspended, possibly causing financial problems for unsuspecting Canadians, he said.
For example, once a date of death or "deceased code" at CRA has been put on a person's account, benefits are halted immediately, so a person could lose their Canada Child Tax Benefit or GST credit, and only realize the problem once the payment doesn't show up.
However, there's also an "emotional impact of being declared dead by a government agency," he said, while an individual and family members face another headache of jumping through bureaucratic hoops to ensure the error is corrected.
"We're really keen to get to the bottom of why this happens and find out if there's a way that we can make feasible recommendations to reduce the instances of this happening," Dubé added.
Secret briefing notes provided to new Revenue Minister Kerry-Lynne Findlay as part of last July's cabinet shuffle, and obtained by Postmedia News using access to information legislation, said a handful "systemic issues" were being reviewed by the CRA, including "taxpayers wrongfully declared deceased."
But earlier this week, the CRA said it had not yet been determined whether the issue of taxpayers wrongfully being declared dead was, in fact, a systemic issue, and said it awaited the ombudsman's report.
The tax collection agency acknowledged errors are made "occasionally" with taxpayer death notifications. Of the more than 380,000 total deaths reported to the CRA in 2012, errors occurred in 0.1 per cent of the cases (about 380), the agency said.
Dube said that while his office has received its own complaints on the issue, he's relying on CRA data for the actual number of taxpayers wrongfully declared dead.
The CRA has already taken some steps to correct the problem, he said, while noting it's not always the agency's fault.
The CRA is sometimes fed incorrect data from vital statistics offices in the provinces and the mistake is simply passed on to the federal agency.
Other times, it can be human error by taxpayers where they put the wrong information on tax forms for themselves and a deceased spouse. Other times, simple keystroke errors are made at the CRA.
Employees at the CRA would sometimes use two screens with files on two different taxpayers, but enter a deceased code on the wrong file, he said.
The taxpayers' ombudsman is a special adviser to the minister of national revenue, but operates at arm's length from the government. For Canadians, the ombudsman's job is to uphold taxpayer rights and provide an independent and impartial review of unresolved complaints from taxpayers about service or treatment they have received from the Canada Revenue Agency.
