The Lamborghini Gallardo (/ɡaɪˈjɑrdoʊ/; Italian: [ɡaʎˈʎardo]) is a sports car built by Lamborghini from 2003 to 2013. It is Lamborghini's best-selling model with 14,022 being built throughout its lifetime.[1] Named after a famous breed of fighting bull,[2] the V-10 Gallardo has been Lamborghini's sales leader and stable-mate to a succession of V-12 flagship models—first to the Lamborghini Murciélago (4,099 built between 2001 and 2011), then to the current flagship Lamborghini Aventador. On November 25, 2013, the last Gallardo was rolled off of the production line.
Production of the replacement for the Gallardo, the Huracán, has begun in 2014.
The first generation Gallardo came with a 5 litre 90 degree V10 (4961cc). The Gallardo offers two choices of transmissions, a conventional (H-Box) six-speed manual transmission, and an advanced six-speed electro-hydraulically controlled semi-automatic robotized manual, which Lamborghini abbreviates to "E-gear". The "E-gear" allows the driver to make shifts much faster than they could with a manual transmission. The driver shifts up and down via paddles behind the steering wheel, but can also change to an automatic mode.[3] The vehicle was designed by Italdesign Giugiaro, and was based on the 1995 Calà prototype.[4]
For the MY2006 (launched in late 2005) Lamborghini introduced many changes to the car to counter some criticisms garnered from the press and owners. These were based on the limited edition Gallardo SE. The exhaust system was changed to a more sporty one (including a flap to make it quieter around town), the suspension was revised, a new steering rack was fitted, the engine power was increased by 20 bhp to a maximum of 520 metric horsepower (382 kW; 513 hp), and the biggest change was an overall lowering of the gearing, especially in 1st to 5th. The result was a much improved car; it handled and turned better, sounded better under full throttle and the extra power and lower gearing made an already fast car into a much faster one.
The production spyder model of the Gallardo was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show in January 2006. It was considered by the company to be an entirely new model, with 520 PS (382 kW; 513 hp) and a lower-ratio six-speed manual transmission. The soft top was fully retractable.
During the 2007 Geneva Auto Show[5] Lamborghini debuted the Gallardo Superleggera, the name paid tribute to the construction style of the first Lamborghini production model, the 350GT, designed and built by Carrozzeria Touring[6] and its emphasis on weight reduction. The Superleggera was lighter than the base Gallardo by 100 kg (220 lb) via the use of carbon fibre panels for the rear diffuser, undertray, the rearview-mirror housings, the interior door panels, the central tunnel, engine cover; titanium wheel nuts and carbon fibre sports seats. The engine power was upgraded by 10 PS (7 kW; 10 hp) thanks to an improved intake, exhaust and ECU for a total of 530 PS (390 kW; 523 hp). The 6-speed E-Gear transmission was standard on US spec models with the 6-speed manual transmission offered as a no cost option.
Lamborghini Gallardo Renazzo LP-550/60
In December 2004, two L140 Gallardos were donated to the Italian police in honour of the force's 152nd anniversary, one came from Automobili Lamborghini SpA while a second was donated by an independent organization.
The Gallardo Police Cars are used by the traffic police (Polizia Stradale) during emergencies and alarm situations on the Salerno-Reggio Calabria highway, also under the powers of the special safety operative which is already being employed along that tract of highway and, above all, for the transport of body organs destined for transplantation.
Yellow L140 Gallardos have been "temporary" police cars for the Metropolitan Police in London, England, one in 2005 and one in 2006, for specific publicity events. The 2006 vehicle was seen at the start of the 2006 Gumball Rally. Both vehicles were lent by Lamborghini London and were fitted with yellow and blue battenburg markings, police logos and a small blue lightbar.
The Gallardo SE was a limited edition of 250 units introduced in 2005. It was distinguished from the regular Gallardo externally by having a black-roofed two-tone color scheme as well as specially designed "Callisto" rims. It comes with a two-tone interior. All piping and stitching on the ultra-quality leather are executed in the same color as the bodywork of the car. The midsections of the seats are finished in color-coded upholstery and even the black floormats have a color-coded borders. A rear-view camera was standard on the Gallardo SE, as was the multimedia and navigation system, the sport suspension and an exclusive cover. The optional E-gear transmission, came with a new function, 'thrust' mode, this feature automatically revs the car to 5,000 rpm, drops the clutch engaging all four wheels in a controlled burnout, and ensures the car performs maximum acceleration.
The Gallardo Nera was a special edition limited to 185 units of the Gallardo, introduced at the Paris Motor Show. The car was designed to showcase the customization options available to the customer in the Ad Personam program. It features special matte black body panels, and was only available in a special shade of black, a combination of Nero Serapis and Nero Noctis. Brake calipers are painted a special silver, and the taillights are smoked to match the darker paint scheme. The interior was stitched from high-contrast black and white leather in the Q-Citura (lozenge shaped) fashion.
In 2007, the Gallardo was entered in FIA GT3 Championship, built by German motorsport specialists Reiter Engineering, who previously made the Murcielago R-GT and the Diablo GTR Super Trophy racers. All the extra aerodynamics were bolt-on parts, conforming with cost-effective regulations that meant the finished car had to closely resemble its road-going counterpart. Brembo racing brakes and OZ Racing wheels were also added. It was converted to Rear Wheel Drive, other than when racing in the one-make Lamborghini Super Trofeo.[7] It produced 520 metric horsepower (382 kW; 513 hp) @ 7800rpm and 510 newton metres (376 lb·ft) @ 4500 rpm of torque.
Lamborghini recalled about 1,500 Gallardo Coupe and Spyder models, from model years 2004 to 2006, because of the possibility of power steering fluid leaking and the risk of fire. The cars were built from May 2003 through April 2008.[8]
In March 2008, Lamborghini announced that they had ceased production of the Gallardo Superleggera.[9] During its production life 172 were produced with 10 in white, 37 in black, 33 in gray, 45 in yellow, 46 in orange, and 1 was custom painted in pink.[10]
Presented at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, the Gallardo LP 560-4 was a significant refresh of the Gallardo, powered by a new 5.2 L (320 cu in) V10 engine that produces 560 PS (412 kW; 552 hp) at 8,000 rpm and 540 N·m (398 lb·ft) at 6,500 rpm of torque. Featuring "Iniezione Diretta Stratificata" direct fuel injection system to improve efficiency; fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced by 18% despite the increase in performance. It also has a new design inspired by the Murciélago LP 640 and Reventon.
The new engine, 40 PS (29 kW; 39 hp) more powerful than in the previous car, comes with two transmission choices: 6-speed manual or 6-speed E-gear, the later of which was revised to offer a Corsa mode which makes 40% quicker shifts than before and decreases traction control restrictions, a Thrust Mode launch control system was also added. Accompanied with a 20 kg (44 lb) weight reduction all the improvements add up to a claimed performance of 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.7 seconds, 0-200 km/h (120 mph) of 11.8 and a top speed of 325 km/h (202 mph).[11]
The MSRP base price was $198,000 in the US[12] and £147,330 (including NavTrak vehicle tracking system and delivery package) in the UK.[13] The first US car was sold in 16th Annual Race to Erase MS charity auction for $198,000 to former True Religion Jeans co-founder/co-creator Kymberly Gold and music producer Victor Newman.[14]

Bruce Willis, Katie Couric, Patricia Clarkson, Clive Owen, Julianna Margulies, Harvey Weinstein and Georgina Chapman and socialites galore showed up at MoMA Thursday night for a screening of George Clooney's latest film, "Leatherheads." Like the last film he directed, "Good Night & Good Luck," the movie is a period piece and the actor costars in it as well.
But the similarities pretty much end there. While the former is a serious biopic about Edward R. Murrow and Sen. Joseph McCarthy, "Leatherheads" is a slapstick caper about a football team in the Twenties. "I wanted to make a movie that wasn't issue-driven," said Clooney. "Plus, I'm 46. Pretty soon, the only role I'll be able to get in a sports movie is as the bowling coach."
At the dinner afterward at the 21 Club, Willis chatted with Ellen Barkin, while Clooney caught up with old friend Heather Mnuchin.
Meanwhile, across the country in Clooney's home base of Los Angeles, Brooke Davenport opened her brand new Hollywood Hills home for a showing of Kaufman Franco's fall collection. Though the setting was idyllic — "This feels like a vacation," sighed Ken Kaufman (one-half of the design team with partner Isaac Franco) — the cobblestone patio proved to be hard work for their Louboutin-clad models.
Among the guests seated at the orchid-laden long table were Rebecca Gayheart, Alexandra von Furstenberg and Nicky Hilton. Though most of the guests opted for sleek black ensembles, the hostess tried to coordinate with her decor: "Everything is white, so this was the only choice I had," she said of her white jersey dress.

Story Summary
Fingon visits Maedhros at Himring Hill, after the Dagor Aglareb during the watchful peace of the Siege of Angband, with what could be construed as a mild implication of slash. It is a lighthearted look at a subject usually written angst-filled and oozing with tragic implications; this one may have bit of foreshadowing for Silmarillion geeks, but is primarily joyful. (Written for Dawn Felagund's 2007 birthday.)

I would but I don't know how to contact her. :( But I might know someone else who can translate it for me.
I'm going to start my crying a little earlier. I see tonight's game as do or die for the Pistons. They win, and they go back to Detroit with homecourt advantage in a five-game series. That is not a bad situation. However...they lose tonight and they have to win four out of five. The way the two teams are playing right now I don't see that happening.
If the Pistons lose tonight in a close one, I will start my worrying. If they lose tonight in a blowout, I will start to tear up. If they lose one in Detroit and are down 3-0, I will seriously start my crying. But I don't think they are going to lose tonight!
If Boston wins tonight and LA wins game two of the WCF, it will take divine intervention to prevent the matchup that the NBA and media want.
If they lose tonight I will be upset, but I am not going to cry and kick the dog until we are down 3-0... Remeber the series starts when someone wins on the road. IFFFFwe get swept it will not be a good memorial day that I want to keep in my memory. Other than being down 3-0, the other worst scenario would be down 3-2 as Flipper has not been aable to win game 6 when in that position... If we lose tonight, we need to win games 3, 4 and 5 to take control and win this series. Game 5 and 6 are key games Game 5 of the 2004 finals was the ring clincher If we had won game five 2005 series (sheed) we would have won that ring too. Lost game 6 of the 06 and 07 ECF and those seasons was over.
Dre, there is no way in hell the Pistons will win 4 out of 5. That is what they will have to do if they lose tonight. Ain`t gonna happen dawg............
Nice hard fought win. I doubt we will see the Celtics not win a game on the road but the Pistons winning the next 3 games would really make my year
Words cannot say how happy I am because we won in Boston. So Imma going to make up a word myself for expressing it: ASDJALKSDJLKSAJDLKASDNJLKADKASDJKALSDAKSDLKA YEAH! BUT lets not fool ourselves and be blind because we won. We had some big troubles in the offense having too many contested shots, but hey a good game nevertheless. We had an excellent Rodney Stuckey playing, I liked that. We had an aggressive Billups (damn I had fear when he felt pain >.<). The ones that really sucked in this game were the refs... and for both sides.
Ray Allen gets off the schneid, goes for 25... Boston's Big Three goes for 75 total... Rondo almost gets a triple double: 10 pts, 9 boards, 8 assists... AND THE PISTONS STILL WIN. IN BOSTON! :p_welldone:

Any Plans For Your Farm This Next Year?
My hubby had a guy come in to paint some trim,windows,vents etc,Im hoping to get a new chicken house,its small you dont have to go in to collect eggs,just lift the door eggs are there.
He wants to build a corn barn ,mainly for looks..
Id love to make more raised beds,love gardening,raised beds boxs ,things just seem to do really good in there.I have 8 boxes now.
We'd like to get 2 goats to clean between pine trees.
Its fenced in so the texas longhorns dont destroy the pine trees.Im sure well find alot more to do,its always something that needs attention.
We have some very large Oaks to remove. Two are storm damaged, only two real branches left. The other is close by, rotten in the center, some dead limbs, but has a nice green top every year. They are on both sides of the large truck parking pad, husband is afraid they will fall or drop limbs on his trailers. We are working on various scenarios, will need special equipment to take off branches before felling the trunks. Tall trunks, with other trees, the barn, HOUSE, in the way to dropping them. One is a Burr Oak, has the cutest acorns each year, with fuzzy caps.
I have a number of shrubs I dug up to be out of the tree removal, will have to go back in. Then I need to put in another couple trees for replacing these. I am thinking of Beeches, not common locally. Plenty of room to grow big there.
Need to add dirt at all the gates, have tracked it away so we are seeing geotextile fabric again. Extra dirt keeps the gate areas from being mud pits with animals going thru daily.
Have to get the wood sides on the stock trailer in case we want to use it this winter. Not planning to use it, but sometimes you want to. Warmer with wood over the slats.
Husband has some other projects, will have to help when he gets at them. The garden shed needs organizing too, that will be a good days work on a warmish day. Have just been piling stuff inside as I go on to other jobs. Have a couple harness racks to hang up. He plans to do a lot more with the horses, so handy racks will have stuff right at hand for him. Young horses are getting more reliable, so they will be learning more this winter, then they can go out and be seen next summer. Lots of hours in developing young animals.
Most winterizing stuff is done, I feel PREPARED! Still have to net the pond, prevents leaves in the bottom. Cleaning the filter often, trying to get any loose stuff cleaned out. Much harder to clean the filter once the nets are on.
Bird feeders are up, but still lots of seeds about, so not feeding them yet. Holes fixed in privacy fence so small dog can't escape the yard. Mulched those things needing it. Have to rabbit fence some shrubs they really find tasty.
I feel guilty not enjoying the sunshine while we have it. Once cold and gray days come, then I can work on inside projects like harness cleaning and conditioning, sewing. LOTS of leather that needs attention.
I'd love to expand our beds and garden area, as well as the orchard, but my wife and I seldom agree on anything. I doubt much will get done next year, but I always try to plan for spring. I was shopping for online seed sales, but I haven't yet done my seed inventory. That will have to be done prior to doing much ordering. Some friends (neighbors) of ours have an orchard, and they had lots of interest in their produce from the customers of the orchard last year, so they are starting to plan for a Pick-Your-own operation for next year. They have 12-foot chain link fences around their production areas to keep the moose out. I lent them my copy of "$100,000 on 25 Acres" as I don't think it is still in print. Mr Whatley's plan would fit them perfectly as they are very picky about who visits their farm.

Nope. So much to read, so many choices, and I used to have a commute that was 2.5 hours round trip to work each day.
I get to work via VPN now so no more long trips and I have been able to read a lot more.
I also have 4 kids + a wife so that eats up a lot of reading time too. Lately though I have been knocking books out reading some of the things I have meant to read for ages.
I am about to read Mercedes Lackey's Foundation. I am in the mood for some fantasy works next. =)
Probably will do Lord of the Rings after that one... then well.. you guys know how it is. So much to read. I miss school days when I had an entire summer to read to my heart's content.

Being single and working is nothing. Easy easy easy. You get home at 6:15 and assuming an 8 hour sleep need you can go until 10:00 PM, get up at 6:30, and in 15 minutes be ready for work and on the road. Thats 3 hours and 45 minutes of YOU time on a work day. And you can get lots more if you tank up on caffeine in the morning before work and at home late at night.
Ah, but if you find the right woman... oh, the waters of marriage are soooo warm. =) And oh does it ever get better with time. The 1st few years of marriage are no where near the best.

Anyone hear of anything new coming soon for the Dresden Files? Is Butcher working on a new one or is he moving on to other things?

The next one is called Cold Days. I forget the publication date --I think maybe this fall? In the meantime, there's a coupla short stories coming out. I think one was published earlier this month.
June 25th, 2012, 11:25 AM #96
I thought the last known date was in October, but it should be before 2013.
Jim Butcher also has an interesting short story in Blood Lite III: Aftertaste. His is the best, most of the others are weird. Lol.

There is a Bigfoot Trilogy, that are essentially stand-alone short stories. But if they were chronologically ordered then the last two parts have already been released, with the first coming in August:
#2 "I Was A Teenage Bigfoot", published in Blood Lite 3: Aftertaste (May 29, 2012, ISBN 978-1451636246)
#3 "Bigfoot on Campus", published in Hex Appeal (June 5, 2012, ISBN 978-0312590727)
#1 "B is for Bigfoot", published in Under My Hat: Tales From the Cauldron (August 28, 2012, ISBN 978-0375868306)
There is also a longer short story that has been announced, that will focus on a female character (very likely Molly) that will be included in the "Dangerous Women" Anthology edited by GRRM and Gardner Dozois. This book will include the next Dunk & Egg short story also. To the best of my knowledge this project does not yet have a release date.
"Cold Days" is due to the publisher by July 1st. If he makes that deadline, they seem to be hoping for a Fall release date. An often updated thread on the subject can be found at the Jim Butcher Forum here:

Sometimes I can't help but wish that Jim Butcher didn't spend time writing various short stories, and just focus on the Dresden Files. At least he has a somewhat steady yearly release rate.

Thanks for the info on the next Dresden. I like Butcher's Dresden shorts as well, but not sure if I'll look into the other stuff.

Dresden files
Wayne - No worries about Jim quitting on Harry.
He will be working on the Dresden files for quite a while still, while he might develop a second series (like The Alera Codex books) it didn't affect the yearly (roughly) schedule for Dresden.
Dresden is planned to be 20 to 23 books, including the apocalyptic capper trilogy, and Ghost Story is lucky #13. Some of them have titles if you want to try Wikipedia (Stars and Stones, etc.), but there will be at least 20 so seven more years of Harry & friends.

As much as I enjoy Harry Dresdent books (I am up to Changes), I wish that he would return to secondary world fantasy. Codex Alera was incredible.
Although both series are well written, they are so different that I have a hard time believing they were written by the same author.

Deathlok (also referred to as "Deathlok the Demolisher") is a fictional cyborg superhero who appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. He first appeared in Astonishing Tales #25 (Aug. 1974), and was created by Rich Buckler and Doug Moench. At least three subsequent Marvel characters have used the "Deathlok" identity since then. A recurring theme among these characters is that a dead human has been reanimated with cybernetic technology. "Deathlok technology" has also been used thematically by Marvel writers in other stories.
Although initially announced as the new lead feature for Marvel's Worlds Unknown comic, under the title "Cyborg,"[2] the first Deathlok series ran in Astonishing Tales #25-36 (cover-dated Aug. 1974 - July 1976). This initial version of the character, Luther Manning, later guest-starred with Spider-Man in Marvel Team-Up #46 (June 1976), and the story from the cancelled Astonishing Tales comics was finished in Marvel Spotlight #33 (April 1977).
Deathlok subsequently appeared with the Thing, a member of the superhero team the Fantastic Four, in Marvel Two-in-One #26, 27, 28, 34 and #54, although one appearance was actually a robot and not the genuine Deathlok. The Luther Manning Deathlok then appeared in Captain America #286-288 (Oct.-Dec. 1983).
A new Deathlok, Michael Collins, debuted in the miniseries Deathlok #1-4 (July-Oct. 1990, reprinted as Deathlok Special #1-4 the following year). He was the second Deathlok to be created in the modern era and also the second to be created for the traditional Marvel Universe. This second Deathlok went on to a 34-issue series cover-dated July 1991 to April 1994, plus two summer annuals in 1992 and 1993.
The third Deathlok, S.H.I.E.L.D. espionage agent Jack Truman, debuted in an 11-issue limited series (Sept. 1999 - June 2000).
Deathlok has also appeared in four issues of the limited series Beyond!, and Michael Collins, in human form and not as Deathlok, appeared in Fantastic Four #544-545 (May–June 2007). Multiple unnamed Deathlok units appear in Black Panther vol. 4, #1-6. Possessing no human sentience, they were automatons created from corpses of soldiers killed in Iraq.
Deathlok has his own ongoing series that began in October 2014.[3]
Colonel Luther Manning is an American soldier from Detroit, Michigan, who, after being fatally injured, is reanimated in a post-apocalyptic future (originally given the date of 1990) only to discover that what remains of his dead body has been turned into the experimental Deathlok cyborg by Simon Ryker. He verbally communicates with his symbiotic computer, to which he refers as the abbreviated "'Puter". He escapes from Ryker's control,[4] although he dreams he has regained his humanity.[5] He battles the evil corporate and military regimes that have taken over the United States, while simultaneously struggling not to lose his humanity. He battles Simon Ryker and the first War-Wolf, and encounters his wife and son for the first time after becoming a cyborg.[6] He battles Simon Ryker's Super-Tank,[7] and then begins a hunt for a "cyborg doctor".[8] He battles Simon Ryker as the Savior Machine, and his mind is ultimately transferred into a Luther Manning clone.[9] He battles mutants alongside a time-traveling Spider-Man.[10] He begins working for the CIA, encounters Godwulf for the first time, and is then finally sent back in time to the modern era.[11]
He battles the Devil-Slayer, but then battles demons alongside Devil-Slayer.[12] He later becomes controlled by Mentallo and the Fixer and is sent to assassinate the President, but is stopped by the Thing and Nick Fury.[13] After his capture he becomes catatonic, and is taken to England for treatment by the Thing.[14] He is cured by Louis Knort, and Nick Fury takes him into custody.[15]
Deathlok is rebuilt by Roxxon as a robot and sent to sabotage Project Pegasus. The robot battles the Thing and Quasar, and self-destructs.[16] The real Deathlok, now working for the Brand Corporation, battles Captain America and a time-traveling Luther Manning clone. Alongside Captain America, Godwulf, and the Redeemers, he battles Hellinger.[17]
Some time later, the "mainstream timeline" Luther Manning begins dreaming that he is Deathlok.[18] He is charged with temporal energy by Timestream.[19] Timestream recruits this "mainstream" human Manning.[20] Deathlok, Timestream, and Manning battled the Collins Deathlok, Siege, and Godwulf.[21]
The Manning Deathlok eventually returns to his own time and overthrows the megalomaniac who had taken over the country. Manning remains in his near-future alternate reality, searching for a purpose in life and unable to disconnect himself from the machine bonded to him.
Eventually, Manning travels to the mainstream Marvel Universe and encounters Daredevil and the Kingpin. He lives a life of solitude until being apprehended by S.H.I.E.L.D., from which he is later kidnapped by the supervillain Owl and, immobilized, put up for auction as a weapon. Before a sale can be completed, he is stolen by the crime lord Hood and sent on a kamikaze decoy run.
Kelly first appeared as Deathlok in Marvel Comics Presents #62. This version of Deathlok was originally controlled by Kelly until its systems determined that Kelly's brain function was detrimental to its completion of the "First Run" program. The Deathlok unit then completed its mission. Kelly's brain was removed from the cyborg and disposed of. One of Ryker's assistants took the brain presumably for use in the SIEGE unit. This version was made for the United States Army by the CIA's Deathlok-program co-head, Harlan Ryker, after studying Luther Manning's cyborg body. The Kelly Deathlok later became known as Siege.[22]
Professor Michael Collins was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was a pacifist working for the Roxxon Oil cybernetics corporation Cybertek. Upon discovery of the Deathlok program he was shot with a sedative by Harlan Ryker and his brain was transplanted into the body of the John Kelly Deathlok Cyborg. The machine was used against rebels fighting against Roxxon's influence in the fictional South American country of Estrella. Collins regained his consciousness during that mission and stopped the cyborg programming that would have killed a small child.
Although his brain was intended to serve only as a medium for the robot's programming, he was able to assert his will over it (installing a "no-killing parameter" into its programming).[23] The computer is fully willing to listen to Collins, though he must take care to present his orders in a way that helps fulfill the mission and keep people from dying. The computer is fully capable of understanding distinct concepts, such as bluffing, as when Collins is forced to pretend to take a hostage.
He met Jesus Badalamente and also battles Mainframe.[24]
Collins learns that his human body was still alive, and encounters Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.[25] Harlan Ryker hides Collins's human body. Collins aids Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D. in preventing a nuclear strike on the United States.[23]
With the Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Misty Knight, Deathlok later battles Mechadoom.[26] He meets the Punisher, and battles Silvermane.[27] He next meets Moses Magnum.[28] Collins finally reveals his existence as a cyborg to his family.[29]
Collins then begins to search for his human body. During this time he fought Sleepwalker,[30] and helps Silver Sable retrieve a purloined Statue of Liberty.[31] He assists a makeshift team of other heroes in the "Maximum Carnage" incident, protecting the people of New York from a mass-murdering group of supervillains.[32] Ultimately, Collins gained the ability to shift from his "Deathlok" body to human form at will.[volume & issue needed]
During the events of the series Beyond!, the cosmic being Stranger (pretending to be the Beyonder) transported Collins to an alien planet where he was forced to live for years until being rescued with the aid of several other heroes. However, his rescue required the sacrifice of Greg Willis, the superhero known as Gravity. As an act of gratitude, Collins arranged Gravity's funeral.[33] When Willis' body was later stolen by the cosmic entity known as Epoch, Collins enlisted the aid of the Fantastic Four in retrieving it.[34]
Jack Truman was an agent of the international espionage outfit S.H.I.E.L.D. who was transformed into a cyborg to battle the Red Skull. Through telepathic means, he eventually swapped his mind into the body of another former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, Larry Young. Young is being considered as a "potential recruit" for the Initiative program.[35]
During the Dark Reign storyline, a H.A.M.M.E.R. strikeforce consisting of corpses animated with crude bionics was sent to capture a super-soldier research center known as "The World". These models acted like traditional zombies, craving brains. Their mission was unsuccessful, and as a result, the research group which produced them, "Project: Deathlok", was scrapped.[36]
Wolverine's rogue ops team joins an alternate future Deathlok-Prime - now free from its homicidal human host's brain - to face down invaders from a different possible future where X-Force, and all other superheroes, have been turned into "Deathloks" controlled by worldly authorities with popular support, which produces a crime-free utopia for everyone else.[37]
Deathlok appeared later as a guest speaker for one of Jean Grey School for Higher Learning's classes. Deathlok revealed the potential futures of the students present and the probabilities of them occurring. Notably, Deathlok refused to comment on Genesis' future, only revealing to him in private that only he can choose his fate.[38]
In the Avengers Arena series as part of the Marvel NOW! event, a female teenage version of Deathlok dubbed Death Locket is introduced. She is revealed to be Rebecca Ryker, the daughter of Harlan Ryker. After being maimed in an explosion that killed her mother and brother, Rebecca was rebuilt using the Deathlok technology that her father developed.[39] Arcade later kidnaps her alongside the students of the Avengers Academy and Braddock Academy and forces them to fight other teenage superhumans in his latest version of Murderworld.[40]
A new Deathlok debuted during the Original Sin storyline. Henry Hayes worked at Doctors Without Borders. During his duty, he lost a leg in a suicide bomber attack in Kandahar (or was brainwashed into thinking he did), Henry was taken care of by the company Biotek who provided him with a composite fibers prosthesis. Upon being placed under mind-control, Henry Hayes became Deathlok where he was used as an assassin, a soldier, a killer, a fighter, and an operative. He had participated to at least an armed conflict alongside with organized troops, and assassinated countless people even in populated areas. He was even once close to be captured by S.H.I.E.L.D. during a mission went bad in Russia. Henry Hayes was often memory-wiped to not remember his assignments. While at MTA Metro-North station, he tried to engage discussion with another leg amputee and advised him to contact Biotek, as his own prosthesis (plastic ones as it was the only his pension afforded him) forced the man to use crutches. This man left, seemingly displeased with the discussion. Immediately afterward, he met Seth Horne, a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent off duty who was present when the Eye of the Watcher exploded, releasing a blast of energy which revealed deep secrets to anyone in its radius. To Horne was revealed Hayes' true story. This level four agent wanted to congratulate him, stating that S.H.I.E.L.D. would wish to have him in their ranks. As Henry Hayes really didn't knew what Horne was talking about, he threatened to call the authorities forcing the agent to leave after a last congratulation. Immediately, Henry Hayes was ordered to kill him as the announcement board of the station indicated the words "Whiskey David" triggering Henry Hayes' Deathlok persona. After following Seth Horne in the restroom, Deathlok quickly executed him, left, took some meds, and returned to his civilian life heading to the train to join his daughter Aria.[41]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (December 2009) |
Col. Luther Manning's body was rebuilt into a cyborg body by Harlan Ryker. Deathlok's mechanical, cybernetic physiology granted him several superhuman powers including superhuman strength, stamina, agility, reflexes, and a computer augmented brain. The right arm and left half of his face are armored cybernetic implants. He wears a woven metal-mesh body suit of considerable durability. Deathlok also carried a helium-neon laser pistol designed by the U.S. Army of his time, and a throwing dagger.
Manning was a military academy graduate, and a brilliant military strategist. He is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, and proficient with knives, daggers, handguns, and laser pistols.
He was later captured and upgraded by 616's S.H.I.E.L.D. and given jet boots that allowed him to leap at great heights and his other abilities were perhaps enhanced to greater levels.
Michael Collins' human brain was transplanted into a cyborg body by a group of scientists at Cybertek. His cyborg body grants him the same powers as Manning, only with much greater strength, speed, and resistance to injury. He possesses a broad spectrum of visual and auditory powers. Deathlok has the ability to interface with virtually any computer system. He is also able to project his consciousness and sensory projections directly into the Net, making him capable of directly hacking computer systems far more efficiently than a traditional hacker. His body can also target (nearly infallibly) multiple objects and track them. He could scan the entire electromagnetic spectrum, as well as enter computer systems. He has learned to use internal nano-bots to repair and alter both his organic and inorganic parts, enabling him to appear as either a humanoid cyborg, or completely human.
He also has a very sophisticated A.I., capable of quickly making complex strategies and evaluating their chance of success. If requested, the A.I. can take control of the body to perform these operations. Collins himself possesses no combat skills, but under computer-guided combat routines, he is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant with an extensive database of combat techniques and strategies.
Collins is an excellent computer programmer with an advanced degree in computer science and prosthetics, and helped construct the Deathlok body, along with other Cybertek scientists including William Hansen, Ben Jacobs, Stanley Cross, Dr. Hu, and Jim Dworman. After becoming Deathlok, Collins later modified his own systems.
Like Manning, Collins wears a woven metal-mesh body suit of considerable durability. He carries a plasma pistol which draws its energy from his internal power source. Thus, the weapon can only be fired if in contact with the outlets in Deathlok's hand. Deathlok also possesses a collapsible plasma rifle capable of greater firepower with the same limitations, a supply of fragmentation plasma grenades, and a molybdenum steel knife. He wears a wrist bracelet that allows Deathlok to override similar cybernetic operating systems, and an adamantium/vibranium alloy shock dampening helmet. He sometimes uses a refitted Cybertek Dragonfly fighter with a range of several hundred miles.
In the Mutant X reality, Deathlok is a member of the Avengers.[42]
In Ultimate Spider-Man #70 (Feb. 2005), the Ultimates fight a person they refer to as Luther Manning, who looks like Deathlok and whom Spider-Man describes as a "half-robot half-zombie guy". The superheroes take him into custody.[43]
The 2010 Marvel Knights miniseries takes place in near future where the Roxxon company runs practically the entire world economy, and war is a spectator sport. Luther Manning and Mike Travers are two of Roxxon's top "players", with Manning possessing superior combat skills while Travers is their most popular player due to his marketable loud and colorful personality. After Travers pulls a stunt in one of the wargames which ends up causing the deaths of both himself and Manning, Roxxon scientists resurrect them as a single Deathlok cyborg. The new entity contains different sections of their brains in an attempt to provide it with both Travers' popular personality and Manning's skill set.[volume & issue needed]

Shark ToofBook
Price: $39.97
No Longer Available (Get e-mailed if ever back in stock)
| ||||||||
| ||||||||
Product Details
Author: Shana Nys Dambrot SummarySHARK TOOF takes an in-depth look at the ambitious and versatile street artist Shark Toof, best known for his emblematic visual calling card: a wheat pasted, hand drawn shark head, which the artist describes as the "perfect culmination of all my angst, protest, strength and optimism." Like a graffiti tag, Shark Toof has established the image as a kind of logo, deeply synonymous with the spirit and subtext of his body of work. Calling to mind the fictionalized and fantastic stylized gore of old horror movies or underground comix, Shark Toof's apocalyptic world is graced with a sublime and dark beauty. Using acrylic, spray paint, and house paint on distressed or reclaimed wood, Shark Toof's bold, brash lines conveys a kind of frenzied, graphic energy and chiaroscuro reminiscent of German Expressionism wood block prints and graphic pulp novels alike. |

Golf Hats
Our golf hats fit into two categories: those that provide the ultimate in sun protection hats, and those that make you look like a great golfer. The latter hats speak for themselves. Wearing a golf hat is essential. A good golf hat will provide great sun protection, be made of a light weight material, and make you look like a pro.
A light weight golf hat is necessary because it will help to keep your head cooler and wont make you feel like you weigh a hundred pounds heavier. A good golf hat should also be lighter in color during those hot and sunny months because they will help to reflect the suns rays, keeping your head cooler. It is a fact that wearing a good hat during the summer months will actually keep your head cooler than not wearing one at all. And they help to protect your head!

Sketch n Draw Pad HD 2.0 Review
This interesting drawing app for Android isn't so much ad-supported as ad-dominated.
Sketch n Draw Pad HD is a free drawing app for Android devices. With a variety of brushes, effects, and other drawing tools, it's a neat, little tool for drawing and painting, editing photos, and other basic image editing chores. It's free, but it's supported by Airpush ads. In the end, the ads are just too persistent and annoying to keep this app. That's a shame because Sketch n Draw Pad HD has potential. We tried it in a Samsung Galaxy S3 running Android 4.1.1.
Sketch n Draw Pad HD doesn't let you in on the adware it installs until you're forced to accept or decline the installation. It is with great trepidation that we allowed Airpush ads, but for our money (OK, it's freeware) the banner ads are far less annoying than the way the app opens an ad page and your browser every time it opens, not to mention adding yet another shortcut to yet another free app. But we finally arrived at Sketch n Draw's blank page. We tapped the Settings to open the app's tools menu, which offered the basics: Brushes, Color, Undo, Clear, Save, and Share. We tapped Brushes and received a menu with lots of choices, including Simple, Sketchy, Eraser, Squares, Grid, Fur, and even Longfur. We opened the Simple brush and began to draw with our fingers. The effect is natural, even fun. But the brushes aren't pressure-sensitive, so you can't make lighter or darker (or thinner or wider) lines by varying your touch; nor does there seem to be a manual method for changing brush width. We'd like to see a narrow palette-style toolbar with expanded brush options added to this interesting but incomplete tool.
Let's be clear: We like Sketch n Draw Pad HD, but it needs both more and less: more features and control, but fewer ads. Better yet would be a premium version with more tools and no ads. As it stands, Sketch n Draw's free app is more trouble than it's worth.

Chai Latte Cookies
This last Saturday was my final baking day before Christmas. I spent eleven hours baking and baking, until I had enough cookies to fill a plate for many of our close friends–and then some! It was very tiring, but I always enjoy the process of creating homemade gifts. It feels like you're offering your loved ones a little piece of yourself!
My new favorite cookie recipe this season is one I've been working on for a while, Chai Latte Cookies. These little chai sandwich cookies are ultra tender with a creamy spice flavor and a dollop of cardamom vanilla frosting inside. Mmmmmmmmm.
Hopefully one of these will become YOUR new favorite cookie. Peace on Earth and Goodwill to ALL!
Yield: 30-40 cookies
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes
Chai Latte Cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 pound unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar + extra for rolling
1/2 cup instant chai latte powder
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
Recipe for Spiced Frosting
Powdered Sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Baking your baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the butter, sugar, and instant chai together until fluffy. Add the vanilla and egg, mix well. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Slowly add it to the sugar mixture until beaten smooth.
Add 1/4 cup of sugar to a small bowl. Roll tiny 1/2 inch balls of dough and place them in the sugar. Roll them around to coat and move them to a baking sheet, about an inch apart.
Using the bottom of a glass, press the dough balls until they are slightly flattened out, but not thin.
Bake for approximately 8 minutes.
Once cooled, pipe a small mound of spiced frosting onto half of the cookies (bottom-side-up). Top each cookie with another cookie. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Hi Sommer, I did get your message and I left mine under your Coffee Machine Giveaway.
(Angie's Recipes said… Sommer, thanks for the message! I am so glad to know that you enjoyed the cookies too. I actually baked some more today as the first two batches were all gone. And sure you can use the cookie photos from my blog. :-)) Thanks again.
Just tweeted your giveaway :-))

We do the same cookie baking marathon approach…I guess I feel like as long as we are making a mess in the kitchen, we may as well make a really big mess all at once. Besides, that way you have all of your favorite cookies on one plate to sample the week before Christmas.
I love the cayenne in the caramel corn!
Merry Christmas~ -
WHat delicious and delectable fun! I so wanted to participate – and I have many many posts with my gorgeous Christmas cookies – but didn't make ONE or anything this year. I haven't been well – the first year, ever!!!
And, there is always next year!
I have so many more to post, and I love this idea!!!

Sommer, I had to comment – these are wonderful!! I've made them twice now, once as a practice round (and my boyfriend demolished them), then again for a cookie swap at work. They were declared delicious by all…somewhat time intensive, but not difficult, and such a unique flavor. Thank you for the recipe, these are a new favorite!

Murray Rothbard on the Boston Lockdown
Submitted by Marc Clair on Mon, 05/06/2013 - 13:30Even though Murray Rothbard is not around to offer his commentary on the recent Boston lockdown, we can at least think about what he would have said. Back in 1986, Murray wrote about the treatment of innocents when the government is trying to catch a terrorist:
In New York and other cities of the United States, hundreds of innocent men, women, and children are terrorized every day, in crimes called mugging. Should the United States government carpet-bomb New York City, destroying it for "harboring" terrorists, and for allowing them to use the city as a "base"? …
The U.S. says that they deplore having to kill innocents, but since they feel that they must "retaliate," and they can't pinpoint the actual terrorists – in fact, they don't know where the terrorists are or even who they are – therefore, they must do something, and killing the innocent becomes a regrettable necessity.
But how does such an argument differ from the U.S. government carpet-bombing New York City ("We must retaliate, and it is regrettable that we have to kill thousands, but we can't pinpoint the SOB's"). Or, for that matter, how does it differ from policemen trying to catch a criminal fleeing into a crowd, and simply machine-gunning the entire crowd?
What Murray was saying is that trying to catch a criminal does not give government the right to manhandle innocent individuals. If a criminal is on the loose, they can't just start spraying bullets into a crowd in the hope of plugging the criminal.

This is one of those topics that gets people talking irrationally and arguing against our rights more often than not. People lose their wits and lose perspective.
