Orlando Sentinel, Gary W. Green, Pool, Associated Press
SANFORD, Fla. — After taking less than a week to call 18 witnesses, George Zimmerman's defense attorneys rested their case Wednesday in the neighborhood watch volunteer's second-degree murder trial.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys planned to work out the jury instructions before presenting closing arguments on Thursday. Judge Debra Nelson said the case could be sent to six jurors either late that day or the next.
Zimmerman never testified. But jurors saw repeated video recordings of Zimmerman telling his side of the story to investigators. He claims that he shot Trayvon Martin, who was unarmed, in self-defense while the teen straddled and punched him.
The defense started its case last Friday, and it presented half as many witnesses in half of the time that prosecutors did. Zimmerman's friends, parents and uncle testified that it's him screaming for help on a 911 call that captured sounds of the fatal fight. Martin's mother and brother had testified for the prosecution that it's Martin yelling for help.
Convincing the jury of who was screaming for help on the 911 tape became the primary goal of prosecutors and defense attorneys because it would help jurors evaluate Zimmerman's self-defense claim.
Zimmerman's father, Robert Zimmerman Sr., was the last witness called by the defense on Wednesday, and he said it's his son yelling for help on the call.
Defense attorneys also called a forensic pathologist who testified that the forensics evidence supports Zimmerman's account of what happened.
Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder. On the night of the fatal scuffle in February 2012, Martin was visiting his father and his father's fiancee at the same townhome complex where Zimmerman lived.
Zimmerman observed Martin while driving in his neighborhood, called police and the fight ensued after the neighborhood watch volunteer got out of his vehicle.
Some civil rights activists argued that the delay in charging Zimmerman was influenced by Martin's race, and protests were held around the nation in the 44 days between the fatal fight and Zimmerman's arrest. Martin was black and Zimmerman identifies himself as Hispanic.
The defense rested on a day when the judge made two rulings that prevented them from introducing pieces of evidence. Defense attorneys had wanted to present text messages discussing fighting from Trayvon Martin's cell phone and an animation depicting Zimmerman's fatal fight with Martin. But Nelson sided with prosecutors, who had argued the animation is inaccurate and the texts were irrelevant.
Immediately after the defense rested, prosecutors called their first rebuttal witness — Adam Pollock, the gym owner who had trained Zimmerman. But prosecutors decided not to question Pollock after the judge presiding over the case ruled he couldn't be questioned about a video put on his gym's website showing his court testimony at the trial.
Shortly after, court was adjourned until Thursday morning.
Earlier Wednesday, a former neighbor of Zimmerman's, Olivia Bertalan, described how he had helped her find a lock for her townhome's sliding door and offered any help he could after burglars broke into her home.
"I was just appreciative he was offering a hand and said I could spend time with his wife if I wanted to during the day," she said.
Defense attorneys also called public safety consultant Dennis Root to testify that Martin was in better physical shape than Zimmerman, and that the neighborhood watch volunteer wasn't any athlete.
"He would find himself lacking when compared to Mr. Martin," Root said of Zimmerman.
During cross-examination of Root, prosecutor John Guy used a life-sized foam mannequin in front of the jury to simulate the body positions of Zimmerman and Martin at the time of the shooting.
Straddling the dummy, Guy proposed a scenario in which Martin was on top of Zimmerman and asked Root if it was possible that Martin was backing away from Zimmerman at the time of the fatal gunshot.
"Yes," Root said.
Using the same mannequin during further questioning of Root, defense attorney Mark O'Mara challenged the notion of Martin retreating. Root said that while multiple gun angles were possible, he had no specific information to say what position Martin was in when he was shot.
"I think you're not going to be involved in a conflict like this without it being dynamic," Root said.

We pushed the boat out to have dinner here on a holiday, but it was SO exceptional, we couldn't resist returning for another round....
Faultless food, and unparalleled service, in an idyllic setting.
We were in Brantome a couple of weeks ago and on our last evening decided to splash out and have a meal at Le Moulin. We had walked past the hotel and restaurant and it looked so beautiful. It is in such an idyllic spot and was ranked highly by Michelin. Well, the meal we had was outstanding and we...
We ate at the Moulin last night, it was superb. The food delicious, staff attentive and the setting delightful. We were slightly nervous of what our bill might be at the end of the evening, but actually it wasn't so bad - for those with a slightly limited budget there is an evening set menu at €38 for 3 courses....
Staying in Bergerac at the other half's parents holiday home.
I had the lobster starter and fillet of beef main and it was great. Washed down with a bottle of Cahor Malbec. Great meal well worth a visit.
The hotel was excellent and the food was also great.
Service was good and polite.
reception excellent.
A beautiful summer day, the terrace over the river, the gorgeous view over the Brantôme abbey, a Relais et Châteaux establishment, everything should have been in place for a wonderful experience. However, it turned out to be quite disappointing. First, food clearly lacked originality and creativity. The 49 € menu offered stuffed duck liver and "magret de canard", two dishes...
We liked everything the food, rooms and service were impeccable. This is not a cheap rendezvous but well worth it for a special occasion. Such a romantic setting you cannot fail to love it. And there are special deals to be had if you search the web.
Staying in the hotel, we had a bed and breakfast package. The Perigord breaks]fast is worth the extra money as it is more substantial. In any case, all tasty and well presented.
Absolutely amazing meal and lovely wine from an exceptional cellar. Great service courteous and understanding -we ate from the 65€ set meal and between the 4,adults all options were eaten Foie GRAS to lamb to monkfish all brilliantly prepared and served. As a non sweet person even I enjoyed the deserts. If in the area you have to give it...
The set course lunch on the terrace on a sunny day is seriously romantic and delicious. Pretty as a piucture and food very good, particularly for the price.

WWE 12 looks like it is going to be an awesome game.
Road to Wrestlemania mode.
Create mode.
They have made the action more like the TV and flows better and works like more like real life then computer game. Like you can interpret any move instead of having to wait for the move to be completed to attack someone. There's also a comeback mode where if your getting your ass kicked you can enter a QTE and make a fighting comeback.
Also the roster is huge and it features the return on Brock Lesnar! and has lots of DLC characters who have not been named yet. Just Jerry the King Lawler has been named.

For some reason my previous thread on this subject was deleted, and I'm not sure why.
This is to replace that thread. Basically I purchased a used Lorcin L32 (.32 Automatic) for very little money. I decided that I'm going to see what I can do to try and help this little gun work more smoothly. This brand of firearm has has tons of problems and has a very bad reputation with the firearms community due to reliability problems and reports of either excessive jamming or possible kabooms.
I already shot this gun once (100 rounds) and it functioned fine for 98 of those rounds. It was comfortable to hold and didn't recoil much (won't get much recoil out of a 32).
Results will vary with these things as good quality control was never a strong point with any of the makers of these saturday night specials (Davis, Bryco, Jennings, Lorcin, etc...). There are some real lemons floating around that no amount of tinkering will help. The biggest thing is to check for good structural condition first if you ever want to purchase one of these types of firearms for whatever reason.
This is a pic of where I'm at right now. I've done tons of polishing/smoothing around the barrel, magazine, firing pin channel, and around all of the contact surfaces between the slide and frame. The magazine had a surprising number of burrs that needed to be smoothed, and was extremely dirty. I also paid close attention to the fee ramp. I polished the feed ramp and removed all of the old paint that was on it. A painted feed ramp seems to be common on cheaper guns and I think that's one of the culprits of multiple jamming issues. Once I get a chance to get to the range again, I'll see if all of that made any difference.

I'll never understand why you go to all the trouble of doctoring those cheap junky guns. If a pistol don't function perfect out of box, something's wrong and is as far as the average shooter is going to get. The average buyer of 1 of these won't & can't do all that to ensure they'll shoot. That's why you're not representing them in the correct light of an out of box pistol. When people do range reports they don't go to all that trouble to make them shoot properly. If it malfunctions it's not to be trusted.
Sometimes you earthlings REALLY amaze me!
I'd like to hear what you did to get the Lorcin to feed.
I have a L25 that could use some attention
I did see your post last night and replied to it and today it was gone.
Fluff and buff? I'm seeing a lot of sharp edges on that gun....
Think he means internal fluff and buff.
Ive been enjoying your threads SGT. I enjoy tinkering and trying to make lemonade out of lemons.
If you enjoy working on cheap firearms, trying to get the most out of 'em, by all means continue to do so, and I'll continue reading
Don't know why your thread was deleted?
Nothing wrong with taking an el cheapo gun and trying to work it into atleast something moderately functional. Have fun while doing it!
I wouldn't want to put the time or energy into one myself, nor would I want to give something like that my precious ammo I could shoot from one of my better guns.
Might want to put a disclaimer in these type threads for newbies reading.
I went ahead and used some flat black utility spray paint (real sandpapery feel) on the grips of the Lorcin. The regular plastic feel was too smooth and slippery, and I prefer more of a rough grip texture on my pistols. Didn't really change the function any, but it gives me a better grip.
I'm trying to find some cheap skateboard-type grip tape, because the slide tends to slip in my hands whenever I slingshot it when empty. When I get done, this will probably be the ugliest Lorcin on the planet, but hopefully it'll run slightly better than a standard jam-o-matic Lorcin.
I cleaned out the barrel (rifling). I found my old bore cleaner, and decided to give the barrel a deep clean. It's amazing how much more crud I was able to get out of the barrel. The tolerances between bullet/barrel are pretty loose, so the barrel gets pretty fouled up real easy.
I'm kinda torn here.
I had a Davis .380 that ran fine, never a jam, kept it clean. I had to replace a firing pin, that was the extent of my problems.
Till it blew up. the slide snapped in two, I got lucky in that everything stayed on the frame. Barely.
So what I took from this was
1) Probably not designed for a high volume of range time.
2) The materials used, pot metal, pig iron, zinc alloy, whatever we call it, aren't really trustworthy. I think the quality varies from batch to batch.
3) If I had to use it for SD, odds are good that it would be held for evidence. I wouldn't feel too badly about my $90 pistol being out of reach for some length of time.
I think since this project is in the spirit of seeing how far he can go with this little turd of a gun, and since he makes no claims about turning it into his first line of defense, it might be interesting.
Noobs, don't make this your first purchase. Sgt has been around guns, and what he's attempting is not entry level stuff, he has experience. I've learned a thing or two from him.

Lil' Cease
Biggie's right-hand man Lil' Cease is still carrying the torch for him in the new millennium. Under B.I.G.'s supervision, Cease dropped verses alongside Kim on classics like "Crush on You" and "Player's Anthem." But things change: Queen B's been beefing with Cease ever since his testimony about a 2001 shooting helped lead to her conviction for perjury. More recently, he's been trying to mend the broken relationship in hopes of a Junior M.A.F.I.A. reunion. But meanwhile, Cease — not so Lil' anymore — has transitioned from rapper to personal trainer and fitness guru.

A study published Monday by a Palestinian engineer recommends solving the Gaza
Strip's "population explosion" by allowing the enclave to expand into the Sinai
Peninsula.The study also recommends transferring some of the Gaza
Strip's residents to the West Bank and setting rules for birth control as a way
of solving the problem.The study was prepared by engineer Mustafa
al-Farra and published in the daily Al- Quds newspaper.He also suggested
vertical construction and filling parts of the sea as possible methods to solve
the problems facing the residents of the Gaza Strip.In his study, Farra
talked about the possibility of leasing lands in from the Egyptians for 99
years. He noted that while the talk about leasing lands from Egypt sounded
"strange" to some, it was nevertheless possible as precedents have already been
created in other parts of the world.Farra mentioned Hong Kong as an
example, pointing out that it had been leased to Britain for a similar period of
time. Another example was Guantanamo Bay, which the US leased from Cuba, he
added.The study said that while the West Bank is 15 times bigger than
the Gaza Strip, the population in the Gaza Strip was nine times larger than that
of the West Bank.Unconfirmed reports published in a number of Egyptian
newspapers recently claimed that Hamas has been planning to settle Palestinians
in Sinai and declare a Palestinian state there. Many Egyptians have strongly
come out against the alleged plan, calling on their government to prevent
Palestinians from moving to Sinai.Writing in the Egyptian newspaper
Al-Ahram Weekly last October, columnist Ahmad Naguib Roushdy said: "Even if they
are only rumors, these rumors have roots in Egypt's history. Every Egyptian
sympathizes with the Palestinian cause, and much Egyptian blood has been shed in
defense of it.But if these rumors are true, the Palestinians have shown
themselves to be ungrateful and could be considered to be Egypt's
enemies."The Egyptian government should force any Palestinians in Sinai
now to return to where they came from," he wrote. "I believe that the [Egyptian]
revolution did not only aspire to freedom and dignity, but also to the idea that
Egypt is for all Egyptians.We are not leaves to be blown about in
foreign winds."

Has anybody successfully ran any Java code using VTK 5.4.2 under OS X?
I've installed VTK 5.4.2 from source, configured for Java and shared libraries. The vtk.jar file is generated as expected, and the Java program compiles correctly. However, when executing, as soon as the wrapper classes call the underlying *.dylib libraries, it appears that only the first library loads, and its dependencies are not found even if they are in the same directory as the first library loaded.
When running using Netbeans, the error I am getting is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/lib/java/libvtkFilteringJava.dylib: Library not loaded: libvtkCommonJava.5.4.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/lib/java/libvtkFilteringJava.dylib Reason: image not found at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method)
Any ideas?
Thanks- Carlos

Under Cabinet Range Hoods
One decision down - sink will be a Kohler undermount Bakersfield in white. Thanks for all the thoughts on the various sinks. Nice to have something decided!
Next - range hood. Due to the fact that there is a window next to my slide in stove and other budgetary limitations I will be going with an under cabinet range hood. I will be replacing my over the 30" range hood that is 180 CFM. I would like to increase that to 300 CFM. My other criteria would be something easy to clean. Less noise would be great too. So, does anyone have an under cabinet, middle of the road range hood that they love? I have been liking the Broan Evolution QP2 but I am concerned about the heat sentry going on and on by itself. Any thoughts appreciated.
We have a Broan Allure QS2 Series and are quite satisfied with it. It is 300 cpm, performs as advertised and is reasonably quiet. By reasonable, I mean on "high" we hear it, on "low" we pretty much don't and "medium" is somewhere in the middle!
Our situation seems similar to yours, over a slide-in range and next to a window.
Here is a link that might be useful: Broan QS2 Allure
Can I please hi-jack this thread? I am finally doing a mini-makeover in my kitchen and getting rid of one of the models that has a top oven unit and a bottom oven (1980s). Love it but its time to go. My dilemma is with the placement of the range hood. My upper cabinets are also original to the house and are shorter to accommodate the height of the old "all in one" range. I think the height will be ok; I measured about 30 inches from what will be the bottom of the range hood to the top of the range.
Is that right? If it is too high, what other options might I have? (No new cabinets in the budget).
If I work with the current situation, there will be a good bit of wall space to contend with. I have a granite backsplash and my walls are painted. Would it be ok to tile just behind the stove area?
I'm really frustrated. The simplest upgrades quickly cause more issues.
Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to offer.
I am currently replacing my under cabinet range hood after a counter top and backsplash reno. It seems that 24 to 30 inches are the average heights from stove top to bottom of range hood. But a little less is acceptable too. Most range hoods I have looked at range from 4 to 7 inches tall.
Zephyr has fairly good reviews. Also Pacific Air. Zenmar in Canada also. Not sure if it is available in the U.S. We ordered the Zephyr Pyramid and are awaiting its arrival. http://zephyronline.com/products/essentials_europa/pyramid_under_cabinet

Jenn Air Duct Free Ventilation
I am about to start a kitchen remodel and need to replace my 15 year old Kenmore 30 inch 4 burner gas cooktop, which is located on an island. We have never had any ventilation for this cooktop (don't know how it passed codes and/or inspection) and so we want to correct this with the upgrade. I feel like my only choice is downdraft for several reasons 1) I don't want the bulk and crowded feeling a large hood would bring hovering over an island in the center of a not so large kitchen 2) I don't want the extra expense associated with a hood 3) There is a bedroom directly above the kitchen and so it could not be vented to the outside anyway (guess it would just re circulated?) So, that leaves me with downdraft ventilation. A telescopic isn't an option because 1) I don't have the depth on the island to do both a telescopic and also ample bar counter space and 2) I don't want to pay an extra $800 or $900 either. My only option is a flush mounted downdraft. The appliance retailer I visited today recommended the 36 inch, 5 burner Jenn Air with the downdraft vent. Since my kitchen sits directly above a crawl space, venting through the floor would be an option. However, I noticed that there is an optional duct free vent kit with Jenn Air that can be purchase for approx. $200. So, my primary question is: Should I pay to have the cooktop vented through the floor to the crawl space or go with the duct free system? If I go with the venting to the crawl space, do I need to also vent it to the outside of the house? (I don't do indoor grilling or searing or fried chicken or anything else with lots of grease) I'm trying to figure what is the most cost effective and best option here. Does the Duct free require frequent filter changes and if so what is the cost for replacements and frequency? Not sure if this is the appropriate forum or if I should post this in the HVAC forum but any advice would be appreciated.
Yes, duct free requires frequent filter changes (or cleanings), and they can be costly. I suugest you check with your retailer or Jenn Air customer service about the cost and frequency for the model you are looking at.
If you do vent, it must go outside. You certainly don't want all the grease building up in your crawl space.
I suspect the Jenn Air downdraft is more expensive that a regular cooktop - so make sure your consider that before you dismis other options as too expensive.
Also, you should be aware that downdrafts with gas cooktops tend to suck the flames sideways and away from the pots.
There are some very nice (not bulky) island hoods that offer a recirculating option and are not too expensive.
A flush mounted downdraft is practically worthless particularly if you're not going to vent it. If you're not willing or able to go with an island hood or telescoping downdraft, I wouldn't bother with anything. Vents are not usually required to pass code in most locations.
You mean the duct free is worthless but it's okay as long as you vent it to the outside? Jenn Air claims to have the best performing ventilation system. I absolutely don't have the space for telescopic and really have no interest in an island hood. The previous owners used to have a pot rack and it was amazing how much larger and more open the kitchen has looked without it. I can't imagine how much more closed in a hood would make the kitchen. Plus, I have a 2 year old and I can just about bet money that he would climb up on the stool and be hanging off the hood in a heartbeat. Or, hit his head on it! If my cooktop was on a wall, I would do a custom cabinetry hood as I'm really not a fan of the stainless ones. I think they look too industrial but that's just me!
I don't think an unvented downdraft is worthless, but close to it. And certainly not worth giving up all the cabinet space underneath, especially in a small kitchen.
I've read the Jenn Air claims, and I think they're ridiculous. I tried to find out on what basis they made those claims and found nothing to substantiate them. I think they even claim that their downdraft is more effective than hoods which to me is just crazy. Smoke, flames, and steam all rise so how can that possibly be valid?
By the way, I've had a Jenn Air electric downdraft for 25 years and I rarely even use it. I do use it when I boil water for spaghetti, but most of the steam still escapes.
Sorry we're not giving you the reassurance you were seeking, but you asked.
That's okay. I've lived here for nearly 10 years without any cooktop ventilation and have fared okay. I don't do any indoor grilling, searing or stir fry but just wanted to be up to codes because it will catch up with me when we try and sell. And, the output on these burners (5,000 to 17,000) is higher than what we currently operate. I was mainly wondering if duct free was better than traditional but I gather it is not. If you've had a Jenn Air for 25 years then you must have had pretty good luck with it. I'm sure the newer ones have more efficient downdraft. This one claims to be 425 CFM.
Just to clarify my previous post, I believe that a flush mounted non-vented downdraft is completely worthless and a vented one is only marginally better - also it locks you into a Jenn-Air cooktop since they're the only one who makes such a thing. If you really won't put in a hood which is your best option, then I'd get whatever cooktop you want and skip the ventilation.
I think GE makes a downdraft flushmount vent and Kitchen Aid is about to come out with one, so there will be a few options besides Jenn Air. I guess Jenn Air was just the first maker to do this type of vent and they claim they are the best. I am pretty sure it's a codes violation to not have any type of vent and that's why I feel I must go with one and I for sure don't want a hood. So, I suppose I sort of am locked in with JA but is that such a bad thing? I am a little concerned over their higher than some repair rate but this is the only JA appliance I am using in the kitchen and so fingers crossed. I do like the looks of it though. Does anyone on this forum have experience with a recent Jenn Air downdraft or is the negativity towards them based mostly on hearsay or experience with older models?
Though it isn't recent I had a JA range with the downdraft, vented outside. It was noisy and did very little. I then went with a Thermador range and Thermador telescope. It was a big improvement. Now I have an overhead hood and another greater improvement. If there is any way you could do a telescope with a good motor it would be worth it.
This is a bit long but I hope provides something..
I have had a Jenn Air down draft cook top for 8 years. I like the looks but the down draft system is poor. Much of the steam grease etc escapes into the room. I cook and fry a lot and I also paint the kitchen every other year. Fatty burgers on the grill, not the griddle, is a sure way to get the scare of your life. I cooked 6 ground chuck (80%lean) burgers once for a group and I had a flame that went over and down into the duct. Sounded exactly like a jet engine and look similar. Don't do it!
I did buy a magnetic floor heating duct attachment, the ones from plastic that directs the heat 90 degrees and I use that with the J/A to concentrate the draw of the duct from the side I am cooking from. That made a big difference. It also stopped the a/c vent from over powering the J/A duct and blowing steam etc into the kitchen. The down draft is a cool idea but poor performer. Beats me why Jen Air keeps it up. Not to mention their prices are ridiculous as their down draft claims. I love the modular idea...but get a overhead vent or none.... you can always paint. Oh!...Don't forget the makeup air needed. For every cubic foot of conditioned air you down draft outside....you have to pull in air from somewhere to replace it..like through leaky doors and windows etc.
I know this is an Old Thread, but I honestly believe it deserves some added input. The Jenn-Air unit you mentioned and also the slide-in range with down-draft are both excellent. The ductless attachment does work well,and the filter is somewhat expensive, around $50, but generally needs replacement only every 6 months if you use the grill on a regular basis, and less if you grill less.
Part Numbers: Duct-Free Install Kit JDA7000WX or W10620783 for the kit; The Duct-Free HAPA Filter is # W10177003 . With the Jenn-Air yopu will find they have discontinued many wonderful adaptations for the unit, but they are often available on eBay and at greatly reduced cost.
Eaglewerks - do you currently own a downdraft ventilation system?
Im in the process of building a new home and my kitchen island will have my thermador silver mirrored finish induction cooktop for which I am planning on getting a telescoping downdraft ventilation system.
Looking for advice on best (I recognize everyone says they are horrible) downdraft to purchase. I personally use my current hood for its light and in my entire 42 years have only used the fan a handful of time.

GAO reviewed the Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service's new rule on bovine spongiform encephalopathy. GAO found that (1) the rule amends USDA regulations regarding the importation of animals and animal products to establish a category of regions that present a minimal risk of introducing bovine spongiform encephalopathy into the United States via live ruminants and ruminant products and byproducts and adds Canada to this category; and (2) USDA complied with all applicable requirements in promulgating the rule.

Index links broken good recipies
I like many of the recipies in this cookbook. My only issue is that none of the links work. I have tried the ones in the book and in the table of contents. If they get the links fixed this would be a great cookbook, right now I either have to swipe my way to them or guess with the slider and swipe from there. On that note I will say again that I am looking farward go trying more of the recipies.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.
