text: Aston Martin is planning to reawaken the slumbering Lagonda name and plaster it on two ultra-luxury sedans beginning in 2011. The first Lagonda will be based on the already nearing production Aston Martin Rapide, though dressed to impress and sporting a higher price tag to match. The other offering would go live sometime in 2012 and settle in as a Mercedes S-Class fighter, dredging the depths of the consumer market near the bottom at the paupers price of $100,000. With the mega-luxe sports sedan market filling up quickly we can hardly wait for 2030 when they'll all be cluttering the used car lots. [AutoNews Sub. Req.]

Living the Christian life to the full
So often when we hear the word 'vocation', we tend to think of vocations to priesthood or religious life, but every single Christian is called by virtue of our Baptism; every one of us has a 'vocation' or special mission from the Lord according to our particular state of life.
As we pray for vocations, we want to encourage people to reflect on the dignity of Christian marriage and the beauty of living together in a Christian family.
Single life has its special place and circumstances and is also an avenue of grace, an opportunity for service. And of course, we want to encourage more people to take seriously the possibility that God is calling them to the priesthood and/or religious life. The important thing for all of us is a commitment to serve, to proclaim the Gospel in word and deed.
At World Youth Day 2005 in Cologne, Pope Benedict XVI said that: "Anyone who has discovered Christ must lead others to him. A great joy cannot be kept to oneself. It has to be passed on."
In 2006, the Diocese celebrated a very successful Vocations Congress; it was an opportunity, not only to look seriously at how we respond to the call to be a disciple of Jesus that was given by God to each of us at our Baptism, but to discern ways that we can encourage each other in the living of our particular vocations. For "when we are whom we are called to be, we will set the world ablaze". (St Catherine of Siena)

A couple of weeks ago we asked you to show us the smallest V8s ever made, and there were plenty of great answers. 3.8L, 3.0L, hell even a 2.6 motor made out of two Hayabusa engines. But none topped this, a 45 cubic centimeter masterwork – and it even sounds like a V8 should.
We've seen micro-engines before, including an awesome marine V12, but that was running on compressed air instead of gasoline, and something about this fuel-injected wonder just clicks with me. It's got a traditional V8 thrum and the fact that it's actually working makes it so much better.
The video description says the whole thing was built from scratch, and in the comments the builder says his next project is a V10, but that should take a "few years."
Now the only problem is to find a vehicle to put it in. How about Power Wheels?

Pineapple Coconut Bundt Cake
I am partnering up with Land O'Lakes again to bring you this awesome cake.
With these incredibly hot summer months upon us in Florida, I have been craving delicious frozen cocktails like crazy. Too bad I have to wait until August to drink one again!
While I may not be able to drink a Piña Colada just yet, I am totally within my pregnant rights to crank up the air conditioning and bake a cake. My electric bill is going to be through the roof! 😉
Luckily, I finally got a nice break from the heat last week on a fun visit to Minnesota. Land O'Lakes took all of us Kitchen Conversation bloggers out to one of their dairy farms to really see what the day to day life is like on a dairy farm. Sadie Frericks (who also blogs at Dairy Good Life) graciously let all 9 of us come visit her farm for the day and ask her a billion questions.
Sadie's farm has approximately 75 cows and it takes 3 hours for each milking…and they have to be milked twice a day. Whoa. I was so interested in the process, but I was even more interested in meeting all the adorable cows. Each of their cows has a name her and her family have picked out, but as she showed us, they also each have their very own personalities! It was a blast getting to see behind the scenes of where some of Land O'Lakes milk comes from!
But let's get back to what is important…this cake! I just love how the tropical flavors come together in this dessert. The light, moist Bundt® cake makes a perfect dessert for steamy summer nights. Even better, I love how this recipe calls for four perfectly sized Land O Lakes® Butter Half Sticks. It makes measuring so easy—with no leftover portions hanging out in your fridge.

In his new play, "The Power of Duff" – currently being given its New England premiere by Boston's Huntington Theatre Company in a production helmed by its Artistic Director Peter DuBois – playwright Stephen Belber explores what can happen when one less well-known anchor decides to end his broadcasts in prayer.
Over the years, television news anchors have used sign-offs that ranged from classic and classy, like Walter Cronkite's "And that's the way it is" and Edward R. Murrow's "Good night and good luck," to mystifying, such as Dan Rather's much-mocked "Courage."
In his new play, "The Power of Duff" – currently being given its New England premiere by Boston's Huntington Theatre Company in a production helmed by its Artistic Director Peter DuBois – playwright Stephen Belber explores what can happen when one less well-known anchor decides to end his broadcasts in prayer.
"I got the initial impulse for this after reading a Time magazine article which reported that 19 out of 20 Americans believe in God. That didn't really surprise me, but it became more eye opening the more I thought about it," explained Belber by telephone last week from New York. "What would happen if you had a spiritually ambivalent person in a position of prominence who, because he invokes religion, becomes looked to as a leader? It seemed to me that since we have the vast majority of a nation believing, at the very least, in the existence of a true spiritual force, then it would be interesting to create a character that taps into or in some way comes to harness that power in a simple but surprising way."
Belber, a Washington, D.C. native, chose as his main character Charlie Duff, a past-his-prime newsman stuck behind a Rochester, N.Y., anchor desk while his ambition wanes and his family relationships fray.
"What I thought would work best was to have the central character stumble into this situation accidentally and honestly, and be someone who was flawed and susceptible to non-saintly impulses. Charlie Duff has had his moment and lost it. He's just phoning it in now when it comes to his career and his life. He's a divorced guy whose son stopped talking to him when he learned of his father's many affairs while he was married to his mother. Charlie may be a local celebrity, but he has no real friends. As the play opens, he loses his father. He reaches out to his cousin, but there is distance between them, and he calls his ex-wife to try and reconnect with her. He tries to speak with his son, too, but their relationship is too strained. And then, when he is back on the air, he finds feelings within himself that manifest in his using the language of prayer to close out his news broadcasts. At first, his boss and his co-anchor aren't very happy. Much of the public reacts differently, however, and he has to grapple with this new response. He becomes a phenomenon among many of his viewers. He is challenged by that, too, because he realizes he has a power. He can use it as either a simple social justice sign-off or something bigger."
The 46-year-old Belber, a playwright, screenwriter, and film director, is best known for his plays, including 2004's Tony-nominated "Match," and "Carol Mulroney," which the Huntington produced in its 2005 world premiere. It was at about that time that Belber was working on a screenplay version of "The Power of Duff," which was then rumored to be in development by director Ron Howard as a feature film to star Russell Crowe. That film was not made, but Belber has since gone on to write and direct the 2009 romantic comedy "Management," starring Jennifer Aniston and Steve Zahn, and the feature film version of "Match," starring Patrick Stewart, which wrapped production earlier this year. He returned to "The Power of Duff" to adapt his original screenplay for the stage. The play had its world premiere in 2012 at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and New York Stage & Film's Powerhouse Theatre in New York City.
"Film is all about words and visuals, where theater is all about words. When I wrote this as a screenplay years ago, it was a big sprawling process. This time around, I decided to go deeper into these characters. We use video to tell the story on stage, but this version is definitely more about the words."
And, in the case of this play, the words are faith and prayer, topics the playwright – Emmy nominated as one of the writers of the screenplay for HBO's 2002 adaptation of "The Laramie Project" – readily acknowledges are not second nature to him.
"After being an undergraduate in philosophy at Trinity, I guess it was hard to shake it off completely. I'm not an expert on faith, but I wanted to be open to the concept of it. When I was preparing to write this play, I went off by myself for two weeks to a friend's lake house to meditate, watch the water, and listen to Deepak Chopra," says Belber. "I've always thought of true or organized religions as feeling for people and taking action on their behalf. I think that manifests in empathy. And there are a lot of non-believers who envy those who do believe. Faith is obviously a very big topic, but so is the idea of connection, and I was intrigued by the idea of a completely disconnected individual alone on an enormous empty stage. And then you see him surrounded by people and yet unable to connect. The latter stage picture seemed to me to represent today's society in many ways. We're sometimes the most alone when we're plopped down right in the middle of everything going on in the world around us."

The government is proposing to list two types of corals as endangered species, the first such listing for any coral.
WASHINGTON The government is proposing to list two types of corals as endangered species, the first such listing for any coral.
The listing would cover staghorn coral and elkhorn coral, said the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
"These formerly abundant corals have remained at low levels without noticeable recovery, and in cases ... they continue to decline," said NOAA Administrator Conrad C. Lautenbacher.
Lautenbacher said threats to the corals include physical damage from human activities and hurricanes, as well as disease and bleaching from rising ocean temperatures.
Bill Hogarth, director of NOAA Fisheries, said agency scientists are conducting research to understand causes of disease and damage to these corals.
The agency proposed the endangered listing in a Federal Register notice, responding to a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity.
These corals are found in shallow water on reefs throughout the Bahamas, Florida and the Caribbean. They grow best in clear water free from excess nutrients, runoff or algal blooms.

JDO doesn't include explicit support for stored procedures. However DataNucleus provides two options for allowing use of stored procedures with RDBMS datastores.
In JDO all SQL queries must begin "SELECT ...", and consequently it is not possible to execute stored procedures. In DataNucleus we have an extension that allows this to be overridden. To enable this you should pass the property datanucleus.query.sql.allowAll as true when creating the PersistenceManagerFactory. Thereafter you just invoke your stored procedures like this
Query q = pm.newQuery("javax.jdo.query.SQL", "EXECUTE sp_who");
Where "sp_who" is the stored procedure being invoked. Clearly the same rules will apply regarding the results of the stored procedure and mapping them to any result class. The syntax of calling a stored procedure differs across RDBMS. Some require "CALL ..." and some "EXECUTE ...". Go consult your manual.
Obviously JDO allows potentially any "query language" to be invoked using its API. With DataNucleus and RDBMS datastores we can do the following
Query q = pm.newQuery("STOREDPROC", "MY_TEST_SP_1");
Now on its own this will simply invoke the define stored procedure ( MY_TEST_SP_1 ) in the datastore. Obviously we want more control than that, so this is where you use DataNucleus specifics. Let's start by accessing the internal stored procedure query
import org.datanucleus.api.jdo.JDOQuery; import org.datanucleus.store.query.AbstractStoredProcedureQuery; ... AbstractStoredProcedureQuery spq = (AbstractStoredProcedureQuery)((JDOQuery)q).getInternalQuery());
Now we can control things like parameters, and what is returned from the stored procedure query. Let's start by registering any parameters (IN, OUT, or INOUT) for our stored proc. In our example we use named parameters, but you can also use positional parameters.
spq.registerParameter("PARAM1", String.class, StoredProcQueryParameterMode.IN); spq.registerParameter("PARAM2", Integer.class, StoredProcQueryParameterMode.OUT);
Simple execution is like this (where you omit the paramValueMap if you have no input parameters).
boolean hasResultSet = spq.execute(paramValueMap);
That method returns whether a result set is returned from the stored procedure (some return results, but some return an update count, and/or output parameters). If we are expecting a result set we then do
List results = (List)spq.getNextResults();
and if we are expecting output parameter values then we get them using the API too. Note again that you can also access via position rather than name.
Object val = spq.getOutputParameterValue("PARAM2");
That summarises our stored procedure API. It also allows things like multiple result sets for a stored procedure, all using the AbstractStoredProcedureQuery API.

2 in custody in connection to Chicago teen's death
CHICAGO (AP) - Two men were taken into custody Sunday as "persons of interest" in the fatal shooting of a 15-year-old Chicago girl, a Chicago police spokeswoman said.
Chicago Police Department spokeswoman Melissa Stratton said the two men, ages 18 and 20, were taken into custody early Sunday morning and are being questioned. She said no charges have been filed.
The development comes one day after Hadiya Pendleton's funeral, which was attended by first lady Michelle Obama and several other dignitaries.
Pendleton was shot to death Jan. 29 in a park that is about a mile from President Barack Obama's home on the city's South Side. Police have said Pendleton was an innocent victim in a gang-related shooting.
Just days before her death, the band majorette was among the performers during events for Obama's inauguration.
Her slaying brought new attention to Chicago's homicide rate, and came in a January that was the city's deadliest in a decade. In 2012, Chicago recorded 506 homicides.
Among the other dignitaries at Saturday's funeral were Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush.

It is either candidate's race to win as US President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney prepare for their second debate tomorrow night, with just three weeks to go until the election and voting well under way in many states.
The Republican challenger had trailed the Democratic incumbent in national polls for weeks, but now has drawn even, benefiting from a boost of enthusiasm following a strong first debate performance 10 days ago. While Romney's standing has improved in some states, Obama retains an edge in the hunt for the 270 electoral votes needed to take the White House. The president also has far more ways than Romney to reach that magic number.
However, that is not enough to calm nervous Democrats, even as they revel in US Vice President Joe Biden's pull-no-punches turn on the debate stage on Thursday night against Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan. They are looking for an equally aggressive Obama to show up for the prime-time town-hall style debate in Hempstead, New York.
"The race is tightening," said Mo Elleithee, a Democratic campaign strategist and former aide to US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton during her primary campaign against Obama in 2008. "It will be very, very close."
However, he added, "the president will win re-election."
Steve Schmidt, the chief Republican strategist four years ago for Republican nominee Senator John McCain, acknowledged Obama's edge, but said it could be erased if the president comes off as defensive or dismissive in the second debate as he did in the first. "If he has another debate performance anywhere near that vicinity, it's going to go south for him," Schmidt said.
Last week's feisty confrontation between Biden and Ryan set the stage for tomorrow's presidential debate and gave Republicans an opening to intensify their criticism about Obama's foreign policy. Romney has jumped on Biden's assertion that "we weren't told" of an official request for more security at a consulate in Libya that was attacked by terrorists who killed the US ambassador and three other Americans. The White House spent the bulk of Friday trying to explain what Biden meant.
That issue can be expected to come up in tomorrow's debate.
As the debate looms large as one of the final opportunities to affect the trajectory of the race, both campaigns are working feverishly in the nine most competitive states — Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin — to get their core supporters to vote early and persuade undecided voters to back their candidate.
The US president is not chosen by a nationwide popular vote, but in state-by-state contests, making swing states like Ohio which are neither reliably Republican nor Democratic important in such a tight election.
TV ads are a near constant presence, mailboxes are filled with campaign brochures and door-step visits by volunteers are picking up. Obama, Romney, their running mates, families and high-profile Democrats and Republicans are near constant presences in those states, working to tip the balance in a tight race where any factor could make a difference.
Romney's biggest challenge remains Ohio, where polls show Obama with a consistent, slight lead.
Without Ohio's 18 electoral votes, Romney would have to win nearly all the other contested states, most of which are either too close to project a winner or are leaning Obama's way, some solidly.

SunWork, a nonprofit company that installs solar-power systems, proved the ideal provider for the Stucker family. SunWork installers include volunteers who want to help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint.
Los Altos resident Dan Stucker and his family are basking in the benefits of installing a photovoltaic system on their McKenzie Avenue house.
The California Public Utilities Commission reports that system costs per watt are decreasing rapidly – from a high of $9.5 per watt in 2008 to $6.14 at the end of 2012 – for a residential recipient installing less than 10 watts of solar power.
But the cost is still not economical for a homeowner like Stucker, who wanted to go green but grew frustrated with traditional channels that were expensive and modeled on the needs of homeowners with large energy loads.
"I want to be environmentally conscious, but it has to make sense," Stucker said.
After a large energy provider rejected his residence as impractical for solar because of its low electricity bills – between $50 and $100 monthly – Stucker found the Bay Area-based SunWork Renewable Energy Projects, a nonprofit company that installs solar-energy systems on homes with small energy footprints with help from trained volunteers.
When he learned of SunWork via a Google search, Stucker found a solution that made economic sense. Unlike most for-profit solar panel installers, SunWork requires no money upfront and charges clients only for materials. Volunteers who invest their time helping others reduce their carbon footprints minimize labor costs.
"Without labor expenses, we can do small systems efficiently," said Mike Balma, SunWork's development director, of the company's business model, which makes small-scale solar installation possible.
By selling power back to PG&E during prime times of the day, Stucker said he should break even on his 6-kilowatt system investment within four to five years. Including sales tax and permits, Stucker's new system cost $2.75 per watt – $2,750 per kilowatt – and that's before a partial rebate from PG&E and a federal solar-tax credit that runs through 2016.
"SunWork is almost off the charts," he said. "It's so economical."
Meeting a need
As consumer consciousness of energy consumption increases and state initiatives push local governments to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, the use of solar power is on the rise.
The city of Los Altos confirmed that requests for photovoltaic panel permits have increased. Since 2008, 400 photovoltaic panel permits were granted, 103 in 2012 alone. But despite the surge, the city estimated that only 6 percent of Los Altos houses have photovoltaic systems.
The initial capital investment is one impediment for homeowners. SunWork – whose fourth residential installation in Los Altos was at the Stuckers – aims to make solar technology accessible to homeowners who want to be more sustainable but don't fit the target demographic of many programs that incentivize photovoltaic-system installation.
"We found folks who didn't use much electricity and wanted to go solar, but it wasn't economical," said Balma of his company's nonprofit model.
Using the skills of 150 trained volunteers – from Stanford University engineering students to green-jobs apprentices looking for hands-on system design and installation experience – SunWork offers solar power at $3 per watt or less, well below the average cost of $6.10 cited by the California Energy Commission.
An additional benefit, Balma said, is that SunWork comes in underbudget more often than not.
Making solar simple
Except for the truck parked out front on a recent Sunday morning, it would be difficult to detect a crew of three installing 24 photovoltaic panels on the Stuckers' roof.
By the end of the day, the family will be able to charge their electric vehicles directly from the system. Within the month, they should see savings on their electric bill.
Stucker said SunWork was the ideal fit for his needs, adding that system designers and staff went above and beyond to assist with energy calculations, design and permitting that is more difficult to complete independently.
There are no sales pitches from SunWork, according to Balma. He added that the company does not take on clients with households that average $130 or more in electricity consumption per month.
Balma said his team assesses energy needs during initial consultation with potential clients and details the costs and logistics of installing a solar system on a case-by-case basis.
SunWork guides clients through the process, from weaving through the tangle of code and permit requirements in Los Altos to submitting paperwork to PG&E for approval and helping clients apply for rebates.
The company, which has installed 65 systems, relies on word-of-mouth referrals, Balma said.
The company's next steps include collaborating on larger solar-system installations for churches, schools and community groups with limited resources.
"This is the hands-on way to take some action," Balma said. "You can talk about how dirty the air is or actually get your hands dirty."

Google encrypts data to block government spies
Google is racing to encrypt the torrents of information that flow among its data centres around the world in a bid to thwart snooping by the NSA and the intelligence agencies of foreign governments, company officials said on Friday.
The move by Google is among the most concrete signs yet that recent revelations about the National Security Agency's sweeping surveillance efforts have provoked significant backlash within an American technology industry that US government officials long courted as a potential partner in spying programs.
Google's encryption initiative, initially approved last year, was accelerated in June as the tech giant struggled to guard its reputation as a reliable steward of user information amid controversy about the NSA's PRISM program. PRISM obtains data from American technology companies, including Google, under various legal authorities.
Encrypting information flowing among data centres will not make it impossible for intelligence agencies to snoop on individual users of Google services, nor will it have any effect on legal requirements that the company comply with court orders or valid national security requests for data. But company officials and independent security experts said that increasingly widespread use of encryption technology makes mass surveillance more difficult - whether conducted by governments or other sophisticated hackers.
"It's an arms race," said Eric Grosse, vice president for security engineering at Google. "We see these government agencies as among the most skilled players in this game."
Experts say that, aside from the US government, sophisticated government hacking efforts emanate from China, Russia, Britain and Israel.
The NSA seeks to defeat encryption through a variety of means, including by obtaining encryption "keys" to decode communications, by using super-computers to break codes, and by influencing encryption standards to make them more vulnerable to outside attack, according to reports on Thursday by The New York Times, the Guardian and ProPublica, based on documents provided by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
But those reports made clear that encryption - essentially converting data into what appears to be gibberish when intercepted by outsiders - complicates government surveillance efforts, requiring that resources be devoted to decoding or otherwise defeating the systems. Among the most common tactics, experts say, is to hack into individual computers or other devices used by people targeted for surveillance, making what amounts to an end run around coded communications.
Security experts say the time and energy required to defeat encryption forces surveillance efforts to be targeted more narrowly on the highest-priority targets - such as terrorism suspects - and limits the ability of governments to simply cast a net into the huge rivers of data flowing across the internet.
"If the NSA wants to get into your system, they are going to get in ... Most of the people in my community are realistic about that," said Christopher Soghoian, a computer security expert at the American Civil Liberties Union. "This is all about making dragnet surveillance impossible."
The NSA declined to comment for this article. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a statement on Thursday saying: "Throughout history, nations have used encryption to protect their secrets, and today terrorists, cybercriminals, human traffickers and others also use code to hide their activities. Our intelligence community would not be doing its job if we did not try to counter that."
The US intelligence community has been reeling since news reports based on Snowden's documents began revealing remarkable new detail about how the government collects, analyses and disseminates information - including, in some circumstances, the e-mails, video chats and phone communications of American citizens.
Many of the documents portray US companies as pliant "Corporate Partners" or "Providers" of information. While telecommunications companies have generally declined to comment on their relationships with government surveillance, some have reacted with outrage at the depictions in the NSA documents released by Snowden. They have joined civil liberties groups in demanding more transparency and insisting that information is turned over to the government only when required by law, often in the form of a court order.
In June, Google and Microsoft asked the US Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to allow them greater latitude in reporting how much information they turn over to the government. On Friday, Yahoo issued its first "government transparency report", saying it had received 12,444 requests for data from the US government this year, covering the accounts of 40,322 users.
Google has long been more aggressive than its peers within the US technology industry in deploying encryption technology. It turned on encryption in its popular Gmail service in 2010, and since then has added similar protections for Google searches for most users.
Yet even as it encrypted much of the data flowing between Google and its users, the information traveling between its data centres offered rare points of vulnerability to potential intruders, especially government surveillance agencies, security officials said. User information - including copies of e-mails, search queries, videos and web browsing history - typically is stored in several data centres that transmit information to each other on high-speed fibre-optic lines.
Several other companies, including Microsoft, Apple and Facebook, increasingly have begun using encryption for some of their services, though the quality varies by company. Communications between services - when an e-mail, for example, is sent from a user of Gmail to a user of Microsoft's Outlook mail - are not generally encrypted, appearing to surveillance systems as what experts call "clear text".
Google officials declined to provide details on the cost of its new encryption efforts, the numbers of data centres involved, or the exact technology used. Officials did say that it will be what experts call "end-to-end", meaning that both the servers in the data centres and the information on the fibre-optic lines connecting them will be encrypted using "very strong" technology. The project is expected to be completed soon, months ahead of schedule.
Grosse echoed comments from other Google officials, saying that the company resists government surveillance and has never weakened its encryption systems to make snooping easier - as some companies reportedly have, according to the Snowden documents detailed by the Times and the Guardian on Thursday.
"This is a just a point of personal honour," Grosse said. "It will not happen here."
Security experts said news reports detailing the extent of NSA efforts to defeat encryption were startling. It was widely presumed that the agency was working to gain access to protected information, but the efforts were far more extensive than understood and reportedly contributed to the creation of vulnerabilities that other hackers, including foreign governments, could exploit.
Matthew Green, a Johns Hopkins University cryptography expert, applauded Google's move to harden its defences against government surveillance, but said recent revelations make clear the many weaknesses of commonly used encryption technology, much of which dates back to the 1990s or earlier. He called for renewed efforts among companies and independent researchers to update systems - the hardware, the software and the algorithms.
"The idea that humans can communicate safely is something we should fight for," Green said.
But he said he wasn't sure that would happen: "A lot of people in the next week are going to say, this is too hard. Let's forget about the NSA."

Well after I made the minipump gun http://localhost/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3575 I showed it to my friends and they all enjoyed it, so I decided to make one for my brother and another for one of my friends. This is the finial product I ended up with.
http://members.cox.net/clide/minipump/x ... umpxlt.jpg
http://members.cox.net/clide/minipump/x ... tended.jpg
http://members.cox.net/clide/minipump/x ... orings.jpg
It is basically the same gun but with a few improvements over the last version. First I lengthened the grip between the pump and the gun and added a soft grip to make it more comfortable (the grip is from toy nunchucks). I also added a handle for the pump at the request of my brother.
I made the pump double o-ringed to make it easier to shoot. In the last version you had to move the pump quickly when you got to the end or you would lose all the air from the chamber and have a weak shot. The double o-ring corrects that problem.
At the end of the pump I added holes to allow the pump to get back to atmospheric pressure instead of having to remove the plunger like my last version. I also added some color bands so you know when the pump has reached the end.
The ammo of choice for this gun is tic tacs. They are cheap and work great. In fact, In the last picture you can see a small piece of a green tic tac that are probably all over my room from tic tacs shattering against the walls.
I also gave this gun a paintjob as you can see. Its not the greatest, but its my first time, hopefully I will get better.


text: When it comes to stamina and going the distance, few people stack up next to Gaia. This sexy Asian porn star works the overnight shift as a high-class dancer at Las Vegas's Spearmint Rhino, then goes straight to the gym to work out after her shifts are over. Gaia's been training as an amateur boxer for a long time, and considers fitness a number-one priority in life. When you see this self-proclaimed gym rat's tight body, stacked with lean muscle and womanly curves, it's obvious her efforts have paid off with impressive results. In the years she's been performing, her feature dancing career has given her the chance to tour and party in nearly every major city in the USA. While she finds this lifestyle satisfying, Gaia's porn work gives her an extra something: the chance to get fucked by a constant supply of big hard cocks. She has all kinds of fantasies she'd like to appear in, like gloryholes and gangbangs, and we hope one day the chance comes up for her to shoot those with us!

Albert Anarwat, 24, worked as a nurse in his home country of Ghana, Africa. His passion was helping others.
"If you look at where we are coming from, we have a lot of problems, health issues," he said.
Raised by farmers in a small mud hut, Albert dreamed of a better life.
"I wanted to help my family, put them in a better position."
Last September, Albert decided to come to the United States to get his Master's degree in Public Health. A friend told him about Aristotle University in Carlsbad. The program cost $25,000 for a two-year course.
He sold everything, used his entire life savings, about $10,000 to move to the United States. He says he's paid $3,000 to Aristotle University. But, when Albert arrived in September, it was nothing like he had envisioned. Instead of a large sprawling campus, the entire University was in one room, in an office building.
Albert told NBC7, "It's just an office. There's no library. There is nothing. Just a few chairs."
Albert says the director of admissions said they would help him find a job and assist with housing, while he was a student. But, Albert was dropped off at a motel and the job never came. He was thrust into a classroom with other international students, into a course that was already eight months in progress.
Albert says class is held once a week. He says most of the time they watch educational videos and use old textbooks. At one time there were more than 20 students, Albert says less than a dozen attend now.
"The issue is, if we are paying at the end of the day what am I going to get from it? I am just going to get a mere paper that cannot take me anywhere? And I cannot defend the course because they are not giving me the best and you go home and they say you have Masters in public health and you have nothing."
On its website, Aristotle University claims it is licensed by the Bureau for Private Post-Secondary and Vocational Education, but a spokesperson from that bureau told us there is no record of it ever being licensed by the state.
The spokesperson also says it has begun a preliminary investigation of Aristotle's claim, based on our inquiry. The University's website says Aristotle is also a law school. But the school is not registered with the State Bar of California.
NBC 7 checked to see if Aristotle had a business license in the City of Carlsbad and found none.
Lisa Robinson works for a nursing agency and befriended 8 of the students.
"I went to the police department, who referred me to the city code enforcement, who referred me to business and licensing," Robinson said. "It was just this big circle."
She tried desperately to get them help from nearly 30 different agencies or elected officials. She says no one will help her.
"I just hate injustice and I just can't believe this is happening , you know I can't believe this is happening to human beings."
Albert isn't the only student who has complaints about Aristotle University. We received e-mails from other Aristotle Students.
One student from Cameroon wrote an email that stated in part, "There are no professors, classes are held once a week on Monday and if Monday is a holiday then no class for that week. The situation is not anything I had anticipated, not even in my country had I seen such meaningless education offered to students."
This was an email from a student from Ghana: "I claim to be pursuing public health, but unfortunately I cannot speak on public health related issues. This is because I am studying fiction. There is no doubt that, Aristotle University have lured us immigrants into the USA only to use as money making machines at the expense of our future."
Another email provided to NBC7 by a student shows that if tuition payments are late, the schools' Dean and co-founder, Xanthi Gionis says they will be stripped of their student Visas and Deported. This is the reason students are scared to speak out.
"So because of that, most of us are paying the fees not because of the school. Because we are just paying to live in the United States. Because we don't want to get immigration problems," said Albert.
NBC 7 reached out to the co-founders and deans Dr.Thomas Gionis and Xanthi Gionis, to get reaction to the accusations. NBC 7 called the number listed on Aristotle University's website, but there was no answer or voicemail. Meantime NBC 7 sent Xanthi Gionis an email asking her to respond, within minutes, the school's website was taken down.
NBC 7 went to the classroom on Palomar Airport Road. No one was there. We did get a response by email from Xanthi Gionis on Friday. She told us the school had been sold, but she wouldn't give us the name of the new owner. A public records search didn't provide any indication it had been sold.
Sunday night, students received an email from Xanthi Gionis stating that classes has been relocated to a new office building on Carlsbad Village Drive. She told one student to bring a tuition check to that location for $1,000 dollars.
Monday morning, NBC 7 went to the school's new location. Xanthi Gionis was there, but closed and locked the office door when NBC7 asked for a comment. Then Xanthi Gionis called the police.
But Carlsbad police officers said NBC 7 crews were acting within their legal rights.
Meanwhile, Albert says all he wants is a real education and to get his Master's degree in public health.
"I cry every day," he said. "I weep every day. I never knew there could be something like this happening in the nation like United States."
He wants to feel like someone in the U.S. cares about him, just as much as he cares about helping others in his home country.
"Sometimes I look at the world and say it's very unfair."

I have decided to take greater steps to making my skin look better – clearing it of spots, refining the skin, making it brighter more luminous, reducing the appearance of pores etc.
I picked up this Clinique Pore Minimizer Face Mask for £15.50 because I wanted a quick, cleansing treatment.
They say:
The clay-based treatment minimizes the size and appearance of pores, cleans out embedded debris. Deep cleaning formula even goes beyond—clearing pores to help control oil.
I am always cautious using new face masks as my skin is sensitive and goes very red and scaly if I use the wrong type of product. Since this is a clay based mask and contains salicylic acid I was a little bit concerned as to whether I'd be left looking all red and scabby.
The mask itself is very thick, very opaque.
As its applied it tingles….nail biting moment there…and then…nothing.
Thankfully for me, it didn't give me a rash or make me red or itchy.
I left it on for 10 mins then washed it off:
Its not a bad little face mask at all. My favourite face mask (also clay/mud based) is Nars Mud Mask but thats a fairly expensive treat whereas this Clinique one is half the price.
I didn't have any allergic reactions to it but it does make the skin tingle. Those with sensitive skins should test a bit out first or just apply to the areas that are affected rather than all over.
Afterwards, I felt like my skin was brighter and the overall tone was a bit more refined – yes my pores looked smaller, although I know this result is not permanent. I would still prefer using this mask over using something like an astringent toner that would make the pores shrink but is a little drying.

The owner of one of Tallahassee's most popular used book stores is accused of failing to pay thousands of dollars in sales tax.
The owner of the Paperback Rack was arrested this week and accused of theft of state funds. A Department of Revenue spokeswoman says Lisa Wyartt-Hart failed to pay more than 5-thousand dollars in sales tax dating back to 2010.
Hart called the charges "hurtful." She admits to owing the state money, but says her business has been struggling to stay afloat for the past few years.
"I don't know why they use the word 'stealing.' We are struggling. The last three years have been really, really tough," Wyartt-Hart said.
"If I had it," she said, "it would be paid."
The Paperback Rack has been in business for more than 25 years.
Department of Revenue Release: Leon County Bookstore Owner Arrested
Lisa M. Wyartt-Hart, the owner of the Paperback Rack, a used bookstore located in Tallahassee, Florida, has been arrested on charges that she stole more than $5,000 in sales tax she collected from customers, but failed to send in to the state, the Florida Department of Revenue announced today.
Ms. Wyartt-Hart, 45, who also lives in Tallahassee, was arrested by the Leon County Sheriff's Office January 8, 2013 on felony and misdemeanor charges relating to theft of state funds, failure to file six consecutive return and refusal to file and pay taxes due. If convicted, she faces up to 5 years in prison and up to $5,000 in fines, as well as possible payment of penalty and investigative costs. Paperback Rack is located at 1005 N. Monroe Street in Tallahassee.
According to Revenue Department investigators, Ms. Wyartt-Hart collected tax from customers at her bookstore. However, during various periods beginning in 2010, lasting through periods in 2012, she failed to send in to the state all of the sales taxes that were collected or file tax returns as required by law.
"It is an honor to serve the vast majority of Florida businesses who comply with State tax requirements," said Marshall Stranburg, Interim Executive Director, Florida Department of Revenue. "For those that don't, it is our job to enforce the law and ensure honest businesses are not placed at a competitive disadvantage by those who ignore the law or intentionally collect and steal taxpayer dollars."
If you have information about tax crimes, please call the Florida Department of Revenue Investigations office in Tallahassee at (850)922-2671.
Note: Due to the confidential nature of taxpayer records, generally the information found in this release is the only information available from the Department of Revenue concerning this matter. Other information may be available through the arresting agency and the local Clerk of Court.

The proliferation of taprooms in Colorado, with dozens opening each year, has sent Ginger Alferos and her beer-drinking pal Jenny Herman on an increasingly challenging mission.
"Our goal is to try every brewery," said Alferos, 40, sitting with Herman at a picnic table on a recent warm evening outside downtown Denver's 2-year-old River North Brewery. "So we actually got a map of all the breweries in Colorado, and we go camping a lot. We try to hit every single one."
While most brewery taprooms are greeted with welcoming arms and thirsty customers, owners of a handful have clashed with their neighbors over parking, food trucks and zoning issues.
Industry leaders say Colorado's regulatory climate, while not unique among some states, gets much of the credit for a taproom explosion that began nearly a decade ago. There are now 80 to 100 small breweries with taprooms on site — industry leaders don't know the exact number — where craft connoisseurs mix it up with their favorite brewmasters.
Colorado's licensing laws allow new breweries to open on-site tasting areas that operate much like bars, but without much local red tape.
Unlike brew pubs and bars, taprooms may serve only their own brews, with no other alcohol, and they can't open kitchens.
That dynamic has opened opportunities for a growing army of food trucks — a perfect symbiotic match between startup-heavy industries.
With so many options, Alferos and Herman, 27, are picky about return visits. They judge atmosphere as much as beer quality. And Herman talks about the importance of developing "a relationship with the brewer" at her favorite places.
But not everyone relishes the rapid growth in taprooms.
A complicating factor, some local officials say, is that breweries seeking to open a taproom don't have to go through the local liquor license review process, which allows for public input. They need only state-issued manufacturing and wholesale licenses.
In Golden, neighbors of Mountain Toad Brewing recently appealed to the city to address the parking and noise issues that resulted after the brewery opened in May. So far, the city has tried putting up "neighborhood parking only" signs. And Mountain Toad owners are asking patrons to park in nearby business lots and to respect the neighbors.
William and Janis Keske, who have owned two rental cottages and a home west of the brewery for 13 years, aren't optimistic.
"Our bedroom window looks down into their patio — that's how close we are," William Keske said. "We get the food odors and the noise any time starting at noon until (late at night)."
In northwest Denver, Hogshead Brewery has clashed with some neighbors over its outdoor patio, food trucks and other issues. It opened in 2012 in a renovated old service station on West 29th Avenue, in a mostly residential neighborhood.
While zoning rules prohibit food trucks in Hogshead's parking lot most of the time, it has used a 12-day special-event city permit that's available every 90 days.
"We are trying to be good neighbors and be a part of this community and be good to this community," said tasting-room manager Rick Harvell. "We created jobs here and built a strong community following. And 99 percent of the community loves us."
Regulations catching up
As with any fast-growing industry, regulations have been catching up.
Even Denver, a taproom mecca, has had to adapt its zoning rules, including new fixes recently, to accommodate breweries that historically were seen as strictly industrial operations. Some limits restrict operating hours to end at 10 p.m. weekdays and 11 p.m. weekends for taprooms near residential areas.
Elsewhere, Lone Tree and Lafayette are among cities and towns that have adapted their zoning rules to attract brewery taprooms while also setting ground rules.
But some local officials still express concern about the loose state licensing rules for taprooms.
"It's not so much that municipalities are saying that we don't want them here in the first place. People want them there," said Kevin Bommer, deputy director of the Colorado Municipal League, which has heard from several cities and towns on the topic. "(But) with any other state or local license, you have dealt with (noise and traffic) issues upfront, or the local municipality has a chance to rectify those issues."
Colorado Brewers Guild spokesman Steve Kurowski and other industry leaders say problems are rare,because taprooms tend to close earlier than bars and operate as neighborhood establishments.
"Here's what I think should happen," said Kevin DeLange, co-owner of Aurora's Dry Dock Brewing Co. "Each local municipality can't regulate from a liquor standpoint. The way they have control is zoning. … You are a manufacturer, and they have control over where they allow manufacturing."
Dry Dock, seen as a taproom pioneer since its 2005 opening in an Aurora strip mall off East Hampden Avenue, weathered zoning issues, too. But DeLange says he worked with officials to modernize that city's rules.
"It's happening too quick"
State licensing data shows Colorado has 241 active brewing licensees, but not all are operating yet.
Although the state and the Colorado Brewers Guild don't keep count of breweries with taprooms, Kurowski says the guild knows of 103 manufacturing breweries, most of which now have taprooms on site. An additional 111 licensees operate brew pubs.
"It's happening too quick (to track)," he said, with more than 40 breweries opening last year alone and 70 now in planning stages. "We don't even know when every brewery is opening up."
On the weeknight when Alferos and Herman visited, River North was packed. Outside, on dead-end 24th Street, Chuey FU's food truck ("Latin-Asian Grub") served up food, with owner Joe Knoblich running orders inside.
That's the way it goes at many taprooms.
While some provide patrons with take-out menus from nearby restaurants, the typical source of grub for beer-drinkers' stomachs has been an increasingly creative parade of food trucks that dish up barbecue, soul food, Tex-Mex or fusion concoctions right outside.
Some trucks even rotate among a circuit of breweries, with each business boosting the other.
"You create a loyal following that's going to come and see you," said Knoblich as he closed his truck. He first fired it up in January.
"They're going to come in and get a beer and have some food," he said. "It's a give-and-take."
Observers say plenty more taprooms are on the way.
Kurowski sees plenty of room for industry growth, because no breweries have opened on the Eastern Plains.
But DeLange sees another cycle in the offing: a surge in brew pubs, with new owners seeking to differentiate themselves from all the taprooms.
Sitting outside River North, though, Alferos predicted a sink-or-swim climate as the market becomes saturated. She said some places still felt gimmicky.
"The real people and the real deal are going to rise to the surface," she said, "and everybody else is going to fall off."

Jeff Owen - Metal Sculptor
Jeff Owen is a SF Bay area and nationally recognized abstract metal sculptor. His sculptures express the emotions, concepts, dreams, and patterns he sees in life. Jeff is most noted for his steel sculptures but he also creates sculptures with aluminum, and incorporates rock, copper, stucco, and glass in his sculptures. His glass-steel sculptures are created in unison with Marc Demian of Demian Glass. Jeff's sculptures have won awards at the Palm Springs Museums National Juried Exhibition, Carmel's Sculpture in the Park state juried exhibition, Santa Clara Sculpture Exhibition and other venues. He sells his sculptures locally at fine art shows, at his San Jose, CA. studio, and the internet. His sculptures are present in more than 30 states in the US, and overseas in Australia.
Artist's Statement
Weekly I travel to scrap metal yards throughout California, looking for interesting pieces of steel. When I find something special I grab it and take it back to my studio. It may take me only moments, or many months discover what that piece wants or needs to become, then I fulfill its destiny.
My creative process emerges with patterns. I incorporate patterns into all my sculpture. Taking one piece of steel, adding to it, or deleting from it, then ending when the sculpture encompasses all of my creativity, this is what charges up my artistic energies. When my creative force is flowing, I work on a sculpture to completion. It is finished when the creative flow ends.
My aspiration is to create unique sculpture, something that no one has done before. I resist conformity and mass production. My art is as individual as I am.
Thank you,
Jeff Owen

Sylvia Dabbah's biography:
I was born in Nice (France) in 1953, lived for six years in England and Wales and from 1963 have been living in Milan, Italy.
I studied languages and drama after high-school; I began creating sculptures in the 80's after having followed a jewellery course with the Italian sculptor Davide De Paoli of the "Arte Povera" movement.
My sculptures are abstract and I usually use metals which I assemble and sometimes cast in bronze. It's difficult to explain how one creates a sculpture, however I proceed by choosing already made shapes which I sometimes modify and assemble them in different ways until I feel the sculpture goes beyond being an aesthetic object and that the metal material magically vibrates, has a soul.

Joakim Noah scored 23 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, and the Chicago Bulls got off to a good start without Derrick Rose, beating the Sacramento Kings 93-87 Wednesday night in the season opener.
Richard Hamilton added 19 points, while Carlos Boozer chipped in with 18 points and eight rebounds.
The Bulls are out to show they can get by while their superstar recovers from a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, and this was promising even if it was a struggle.
Chicago led by 14 after a 10-0 run in the third quarter and hung on in the fourth after the Kings closed within three several times.
After the game it was announced that backup power forward Taj Gibson signed a four-year extension, avoiding free agency next off-season.

Rosalie, though beautiful, is one of the most conflicted characters in Twilight. At first she carries a lot of hostility toward Bella, but in the end warms up to her. Rosalie holds a lot inside of her. Right before she was turned into a vampire by Carlisle (her adoptive father) out of pity, she was gang-raped and beaten to death by her fiance and his friends. That would make any one bitter. She's the only vampire in the Cullen family that hasn't tasted human blood. That's pretty impressive. Also she's the wife to that hunky, gorgeous Emmett and is the adoptive sister to Edward. It's about time she gets a tutorial! Have fun learning "how to draw Rosalie Cullen", step by step.

Because it is so enclosed by land, the warm waters of the Mediterranean take more than a 100 years to clean and renew themselves – it doesn't easily or quickly recover from pollution, damage or exploitation. Scientists say that up to 50% of it should be off limits to any kind of destructive activity – including fishing.
With nineteen nations to support, the Mediterranean is a vital source of food and income, but it is already severely over-fished. Official bodies like the European Environment Agency and the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation admit that more than 65% of all fish stocks in the region are in trouble. Bluefin tuna numbers are so low that many environmental organisations, including Greenpeace, have repeatedly called for bluefin fishing to be banned.
Overfishing isn't the only problem for the Mediterranean. A growing industry on the sea is tuna ranching – a special kind of madness when fish stocks are low. Juvenile tuna are caught and put into special cages, which are dragged around the Med, while the tuna are fatten up with other wild caught fish. It takes up to 20 kilograms of bait to produce just one kilogram of tuna. The bait is made from other fish species, predominantly caught around West Africa, the North Atlantic and US waters.
Tuna ranching also carries other risks. The 'foreign' bait used can introduce diseases to the local fish populations, as happened in Australian tuna ranches. The spread of disease to important local fish stocks such as anchovy or sardine could be disastrous for local fishermen.
Fish farming – or aquaculture - is another industry that is expanding rapidly - often without proper environmental assessment. It is often – mistakenly – thought that fish farming helps alleviate the problem of overfishing, because fish aren't being taken in the wild. However, many farmed species are carnivorous, and can eat up to five times their weight in wild fish.
Fish farming also uses large amounts of chemicals, which are fed to the fish or put into the water. These chemicals can do huge damage to the water and can leave them so polluted that nothing else can grow in the area. In the Mediterranean fish farms are being set up near important seagrass areas and there are serious concerns about the impact.
Fishing, farming and ranching are all legal. But drift netting is not. Despite it being a crime to run illegal, unreported or unregulated (IUU) fishing fleets, Morocco has admitted to operating over 300 drift netting vessels. Other fleets include the Italian fleet of 90-100 vessels, 45-100 Turkish vessels and a French fleet of between 45 and 75 vessels.
Driftnets can be up to 17km long and trap anything, especially endangered sea turtles, dolphins and sharks. They have been banned since 2003 because of the huge by-catch rate, but evidence suggests the use in the Mediterranean is actually increasing.
Nineteen countries share the responsibility of looking after the Mediterranean. Only one – Spain – has even adopted a National Plan of Action to combat the problem of IUU fishing. Between them – the Mediterranean states don't even have a shared register of the fishing vessels on the water, what they are doing and what they are catching.
Barely one percent of the Mediterranean Sea is fully protected - a far cry from the 20%-50% recommended by scientists. There is a serious risk that the Mediterranean is becoming exploited beyond its natural ability to replenish and recover, affecting its health and productivity for future generations. In order to avoid this - the Mediterranean is desperately in need of protection through the establishment of ocean sanctuaries.
With the help of ocean scientists, Greenpeace has produced an oceans sanctuaries map for the Mediterranean. By protecting these areas, we can save "Our Sea" and have healthy oceans for the future.

Changes to CMA Bill reflect Pike River reportEnergy and Resources
Cabinet has approved further changes to the Crown Minerals (Permitting and Crown Land) Bill currently before the Commerce Committee, Energy and Resources Minister Phil Heatley says.
A Supplementary Order Paper recommends changes to current legislation to strengthen the Bill in light of the report of the Royal Commission on the Pike River Coal Mine Tragedy.
The Royal Commission's report endorses the proposals being progressed through the current review of the Crown Minerals Regime and reflected in the Bill being considered by the Commerce Committee.
It also recommended that regulators need to collaborate to ensure that health and safety is considered as early as possible and before permits are issued, and that the Crown Minerals Regime should be changed to ensure that health and safety is an integral part of permit allocation.
The key changes set out in the Supplementary Order Paper are:
- The Minister of Energy and Resources must seek the view of the appropriate health and safety regulator and take this into account before issuing a Tier 1 exploration or mining permit.
- Tier 1 mining activities must not start until the health and safety regulator is satisfied the health and safety requirements have been met.
- Health and safety considerations will be included in the definition of "good industry practice" to recognise that health and safety, and maximising extraction of a resource, are inextricably linked.
The Commerce Committee is to announce its process for consultation on the Supplementary Order Paper in due course.

Sighting-In a Rifle
Rifle bullets don't travel in a straight line. They travel in an arc, formed by the pull of gravity. "Sighting-in" is a process of adjusting the sights to hit a target at a specific range. Deer hunters, for example, often sight-in their rifles to hit the bull's-eye at 100 yards.
Sighting-in your rifle is important because it:
- Makes accurate shooting possible.
- Helps determine the farthest range at which you can hit your target.
- Improves safety by helping you know where your rifle will shoot.
All rifles should be sighted-in before every hunt using the ammunition you plan to use, especially rifles with peep or telescopic sights. Guns you sighted-in prior to your last outing could have been knocked out of alignment by a single jolt. That misalignment could mean the difference between a successful hunt and a disappointing experience.
Other than ensuring accurate shots, sighting-in a rifle has other advantages:
- Forces you to practice
- Helps determine problems with your shooting technique
- Builds confidence in your shooting ability
