Can I shoot a bear in self-defense? Will I face fines and jail time if I do?
For hunting bears you have to check with your local rangers for hunting season, permits and so on.
Self-defense is self-defense if your mental state does not allow you to think and you feel killing is the only way out than it the only way out.
You can shoot a human in self defense, so don't worry about shooting a bear if you have to. I have UK military experience, and let me tell you, shooting a moving target with a handgun is difficult. If a 400kg bear is coming at you, and you only have 5 seconds to get an accurate shot away with all the adrenalin flowing, then chances are you will not stop the bear, even if you are well practised with the handgun.
The only firearm I would consider for a CLOSE encounter with a bear is a pump action shotgun. Easier to aim and far more stopping power. Not a particularly convenient or inconspicuous piece of kit to carry when hiking! But you do have that as a legal option here in the U.S.?
But bear(!) in mind, your mindset will change if you are carrying a firearm. You may be tempted to go for the gun too readily when there is perhaps a better alternative course of action, e.g. talk loudly, avoid eye contact and move away slowly.
Still, if I had a shotgun and bear spray, I would instinctively go for the shotgun first, which may be less effective than the spray. Given enough time though, I would fire shots in the air, before aiming at the bear. I have seen u-tube videos of Grizzlys scampering away in fear from the noise of a shotgun.
You can. Bear spray is a more humane option; however, you do ask about legal repercussions. You can shoot pretty much any animal in self defense in the USA. After you shoot the animal it is important what you do if you want to avoid fines. Once the fight is over and you know you are safe you need to call the forest service. If you don't know their number call 911 and they can and will help you.
Source: Last year a buddy of mine killed a Mountain Lion (cougar) in self Defense and didn't have a tag for one. A guy came out and looked at the Cougar, asked some basic questions like what weapon was used. Where was he standing. Where I was. What was the Mountain Lion doing that made him feel he had to kill it. When did it happen. The last question was "Will you help me carry it back to my truck?" He filled out a piece of paper with our info and that was it.
During the carry back we asked about what happens and he told us that depending on very technical qualifications such as if he wants to eat the animal or not and how far is is from his truck determines if he hands the hunters a tag and says have a nice day or takes it himself. Also, he said that if it was obviously not self defense or he had a bad feeling about it he could get the police involved but usually doesn't have to.

Thank you so much for not forgetting about me and for the visit. It would seem that 2014 is calling more than a few of my family members. I have attended four funerals this year not to mention the ones I couldn't attend. As a part of my families hospitality committee, it is my job to be present to assist family during this time. We just buried one family member Thursday to find out the very next day another family member has passed. Do keep my family in your prayers. I am always sending a prayers up for Police Link. Be encouraged, God is still good!!

EGLIN AFB — Empty military boots and helmets marked the space where the fallen airmen might have stood.
They might have straightened their spines, pulled back their shoulders and raised their arms in rigid salute as the honor guard marched by carrying the American flag through the heavy, humid air.
But those airmen are gone, lost in a terrorist bombing at Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia on June 25, 1996.
On Tuesday, dozens of people gathered at a memorial honoring the 19 American men killed in the attack, showing that although gone, they are not forgotten.
See photos of the ceremony. >>
Twelve of the airmen were members of what is now the 33rd Fighter Wing at Eglin. Their faces are etched into the memorial's stone wall. A sword, eternally engulfed in flames, stands tall out of a rock in front of the wall, which also shows the names of the seven airmen from Patrick Air Force Base who were killed.
"It has been 17 years since that tragic day," Col. Todd Canterbury, current commander of the 33rd Fighter Wing, said during the ceremony. "Despite the years, the flame of remembrance we see here continues to burn bright, signifying their service still matters."
About 15 family members of those killed in the attack attended the remembrance.
Airman 1st Class Joseph Rimkus, 22, died after the building he was in collapsed in the blast. His younger brother, James Ryan Rimkus, who was 20 at the time, attended the ceremony for the first time in his life, although he lives nearby in Valparaiso.
"I really haven't properly grieved yet," he said. "This is so hard. I feel him right here, in my chest."
James Rimkus had joined the Navy and was in boot camp when he received word that his brother had decided to join the Air Force. They enlisted two weeks apart.
His brother's death tore him apart. He left the Navy shortly after and struggled for many years to deal with the loss.
"I leaned on him more than I thought I did, until he died and I realized just how much," he said.
Shyrl Johnson traveled to the memorial from Central Florida to honor her late husband, Staff Sgt. Kenneth Johnson, who left behind two sons – one 2 months old and the other 4 years old.
His sons, now grown, sat at their mother's side.
"To think of this day every year is hard," she said. "But when you are surrounded by people who haven't forgotten, that makes it a little better."
The airmen were deployed in support of Operation Southern Watch, which was tasked with patrolling the no-fly zone over Iraq after the Gulf War.
On the evening of the attack, a large truck drove as close as it could to one of the compound's buildings and detonated in a huge explosion.
Across the base, Lt. Col. Brian Henson, a maintenance officer on his first deployment, was working the late shift on the flight line.
He saw what he thought was lightning and heard what sounded like thunder.
"How is there a thunderstorm in the middle of the desert?" he thought.
Then he realized they'd been attacked.
They wanted to run to the building to find their friends, their brothers, to dig through the rubble.
But they had to stay put. There was no one else to do their job.
"This is it," he said they thought at the time. "This is all we have."
He said there was no time for sadness, for fear, for shock. They kicked into gear, preparing the flight line and the jets for what was next.
"We could have been raging, but we knew this is a part of the job, this is the risk we take," Henson said. "Our job is to maintain and persevere."
The rest of the airmen came to them; they didn't know where else to go. They set up a makeshift barracks in the flight hangar.
He remembers visiting with the wounded.
"These poor 23-year-old kids, cut to pieces, glass everywhere," he said. "I will never forget seeing that, they were just asking about everyone else, their roommate, their friends."
Many returned to work.
"We were hurt, but not broken," Henson said.
It wasn't until days later when he got off the plane at Eglin that he was able to let down the strong shell he'd been carrying since the attack.
"That was tough," he said.
Hundreds of people were on the flight line to greet them, the last of the airmen to return after the bombing.
"To see the outpour of welcoming, that's when I broke down," Henson said.
Although it was his first deployment, he said the attacks did not deter him from his service.
"I signed up to be a part of something through thick and thin," he said.
Henson was the guest speaker at Tuesday's ceremony. He has just been stationed again at Eglin for the first time in more than a decade. He serves as program manager for the B61 nuclear weapon modernization program.
He said he was honored to be a part of the ceremony, and remembers well what the families of the fallen went through in the days immediately following the attack.
"I want them to know that that day is never going to be forgotten and the faces that they see on these stones were never lost to the 33rd."

On Thursday, June 13, the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce hosted the 27th Annual Valor Awards to honor the bravery and quick-thinking of Alexandria's public safety employees. During the luncheon at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Sheriff Dana Lawhorne, Police Chief Earl Cook and Fire Chief Adam Thiel presented their staff members with certificates and medals for their courageous and life-saving actions. Sheriff Lawhorne presented Deputy Brian Bell with a Life Saving Award (right) in recognition of his efforts to aid an emotionally disturbed person on a highway overpass. On the night of April 15, Deputy Bell, who was off-duty, observed subject on the shoulder of the overpass gazing at the traffic below. He immediately pulled over and called dispatch to advise them of the situation. While exiting the vehicle, Deputy Bell observed a Metro van pull up to the area where the woman was standing. She appeared to become increasingly agitated as she engaged in a conversation with someone in the van. The woman moved to straddle the other side of the overpass, half her body above the southbound lanes of I-495/95. Deputy Bell hurried towards the woman and began speaking to her in an attempt to calm her down. He continued to speak to her until Alexandria police officers arrived to assist him. While Deputy Bell distracted the woman, one of the police officers maneuvered himself behind the woman, grabbed her and placed her on the pavement of the overpass. The woman was transported to Inova Alexandria Hospital for a mental evaluation. Due to Deputy Bell's observation and quick actions, the woman survived to get the help she needed.

Join us for Tech Talk Live, Episode 68, to cover techniques for getting your Alfresco code into production.
The binary installers for Alfresco are convenient packages for getting an evaluation or test system up and running, and may be suitable for some production installations. But the packaged installers are not right for everyone. Large scale or business critical deployments of Alfresco often have complexities such as installations from dev to prod, clustering, integrations, virtualization, cloud deployments, and adaptation to the nuances of infrastructure. It is easy to see why an administrator may want to script his or her own installation process. In this conversation, Rich McKnight, Principle Technical Consultant at Alfresco, shares strategies he has used in rigorously managed environments.

Small children wouldn't be able to relate to the older guys or know/respect their legacy enough to get into the show. The bottom line is, is that the WWE has given all of its long loyal fans the in exchange for a younger audience.

When Buddy Holly recorded "Not Fade Away" in 1957 as the "B" side to another hit, he probably never knew how iconic this song would become. Ranked at number 107 in the Top 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, legend has it this is one of the last songs Holly ever played before his death in a plane crash. The opening lyrics say the writer's love is bigger than a Cadillac, but we'd bet that's any less than the affection Robert O'Neill has spilled on this 17.5-foot-long Impala SS—so it, too, won't fade away.
"In the late '90s the local Friday night spot was in Bellmore, Long Island, where there were hundreds of cars gathered back then," O'Neill reminisced. "I was always a Corvette guy, but I'd always noticed this white Impala SS. I used to tell my buddies that was a cool car, but they would tell me I was nuts. It had most of the original paint on it along with a flat hood, and the original interior was in good condition. It was a real sleeper, and I liked it."
In September of 2000, O'Neill found that the car was for sale, and waited patiently at the local gathering until all the hubbub around the car had died down so he could talk to the owner. He went up to him, asked what time he'd be waking up the next morning, and, to the owner's surprise, said he would see him then to buy the car.
"Now, that was about 10:30 on a Friday night, and I had to call my wife and tell her I was going to purchase another car," O'Neill said, smiling as he continued his story. "It didn't go over well the last time I came home with a car, but she said 'yes.' So, Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m., my brother and I show up. The owner took me for a little ride, talked about the car, and I made him an offer he couldn't refuse. He said he'd get the car ready with all the parts that would go with it, and arrange for us to pick it up later, but that was not going to happen. I wasn't leaving without the car, so we helped him until I was the the third owner of this '64 Impala SS. My wife and kids heard me comin' home before they saw me coming down the block!"
With the car being about 30 inches longer than a Corvette, the new Impala SS would barely fit into the garage. So, O'Neill was very limited on what he could do to it for the first year or two. With an excuse to build a new garage in hand, he completed that project before he turned his full attention on his classic Chevy. Talk about making the most of a situation.
"Bobby and John of T&W Welding & Fabrication in Deer Park, New York, fabricated a chrome-moly roll cage that is almost undetectable, with exception to the two rear bars," O'Neill said about the structure of the car. "It's a 10-point NHRA-certified sportsman cage for cars running 8.50 and slower. Those guys tucked the front bars to the A-pillars and sunk it in the dash, while all the other bars are in the right spots to give it sleeper look while providing safety. The cage was then painted body color except for the lower bars that were painted (aqua) carpet color."
Nick and Chris from Montana Brothers Race Cars in Port Jefferson, New York, installed a narrowed 9-inch housing with back and front bracing along with a Strange nodular iron Detroit Locker center section, which contains 35-spline axles and 4.88:1 cryogenically treated gears to withstand the duties of daily driving.
The rear suspension is comprised of an adjustable upper cross member with two adjustable upper control arms with 4130 rod ends that work with a braced lower perch and boxed lower arms to maintain factory look. To help fine tune the chassis, Afco model 3875 single adjustable shocks were used to help adjust the compression and rebound characteristics as needed at different tracks. All rear suspension work was done within the factory wheelwells, which contain American Racing Torq Thrust D 1-piece aluminum wheels wrapped with Mickey Thompson 29.5x10 DOT-approved tires.

CRESTVIEW — A rural neighborhood west of town has been battling its own version of hogs gone wild in recent years.
Doug Wheeler, who lives on Old South Drive, complained last week that wild hogs have been tearing up lawns near his home for the past two years, causing hundreds of dollars of property damage with each visit.
"This neighborhood needs some relief," according to a letter he sent to Okaloosa County commissioners and Crestview officials.
They are not alone, said Stan Kirkland, a spokesman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
"Feral hogs are a problem throughout the country," said Kirkland, who added that the animals are especially problematic for farmers. "They get into fields and just destroy them."
They can do the same to a manicured lawn.
"They do just tear it up," Wheeler said. "They wipe the grass out. Looks like somebody took a shovel and turned it over."
Feral hogs are descendants of domestic pigs and are not considered wildlife. They are edible, though they tend to be leaner than domestic pigs and carry some diseases.
They are considered the property of the person who owns the land and can be hunted 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Killing the animals is considered the most effective way to control their impact.
Kirkland said folks can shoot at hogs on their property as long as they don't shoot over or into an occupied dwelling, per Florida law.
"You are responsible for what you do," Kirkland added. "If you fire a firearm in any place, if that projectile goes on someone else's property, you can face charges."
Wheeler said folks in his neighborhood have tried shooting the pigs with bows and arrows.
"Something needs to be done," he said. "They're getting a little more familiar. They used to run when people saw them. Now you've got to shoo them off."
Kirkland said another option is to hire a professional hog hunter or trapper. Trapped hogs must be euthanized before being transported, he added.
County Commissioner Wayne Harris responded almost immediately to Wheeler's letter. He said he used to walk in the pre-dawn hours before meeting up with a big boar with tusks.
"It scared the beJesus out of me," he said. "I bet he was 400, 450 pounds. Big tusks up front at least 4 inches long."
Harris turned around, headed home and no longer walks at that hour.
However, he said there's little the county can do to provide relief.
"We can't do anything other than send people out to shoot at them and we can't do that," he said. "We don't have the ability to control every animal around.
"The only solution we have is to run them off or kill them."

SPACE pirate and alien life forms could soon be seen zooming around the Lake District – thanks to a new million dollar movie.
Old Hutton writer and director Rick McLeod has teamed up with a group of American producers to make a science fiction film based on cult television series Firefly.
The US consortium, one of whom has done sound-tracks for Mr McLeod in the past, originally began filming experimental sequences in county – but then the idea turned into a feature-length film.
Although $1 million is a relatively small budget for a movie, Mr McLeod said he was 'shocked' when the group gave the figure.
"Last year was a good one for us – we're still reeling from that – so when they approached me my first question was 'Are you serious?'
"It's not easy to make films in Cumbria, especially with the UK Film Council gone. When we had Leslie Grantham here, he was unpaid because he loved the script.
"It's great to know that our hard work is starting to pay off."
The film, called Lost Transmission, follows the lonely adventure of Blake, captain of a mining ship, with no-one but his computer to talk to after war breaks out on Earth. But he leaves the planet to find life on other worlds.
Filming is expected to start in early 2012, and will be split between Cumbria and America.
CGI effects are already being worked on by the studio, which created a castle in the middle of Windermere in a previous flick.
Before filming begins in earnest, Mr McLeod is shooting a short promotional video with action sequences in Old Hutton.
And he is looking for '23rd century pirates' to star as extras in a fight scene on Sunday, to be led by a trained fight choreographer.
"We're seeking punks, goths and heavy rockers. Long or short hair, tattoos and piercings are a bonus but not essential. The more outrageous the look the better," said Mr McLeod.
Filming will last for between two and three hours and anyone interested can email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Participants are requested to send a head shot with their email.
Discussions with actors to play the role of Blake are still going on.
Next generation of reactors will be built at Sellafield and Heysham, the Government announced today as it pushes ahead with plans for new nuclear power plants.
In the first major announcement on the future of nuclear in the UK since the Fukushima disaster in Japan, the Government outlined the locations deemed suitable for new power stations by 2025, all of which are adjacent to existing nuclear sites.
The eight sites are: Bradwell, Essex; Hartlepool; Heysham, Lancashire; Hinkley Point, Somerset; Oldbury, South Gloucestershire; Sellafield, Cumbria; Sizewell, Suffolk; and Wylfa, Anglesey.
The plans for new nuclear power plants are part of a series of national policy statements on energy which were published today, following a public consultation.
They will be debated and voted on in Parliament, but ministers are hopeful that, with a pro-nuclear majority in the Commons, they will win the argument.
Nuclear power is one of the issues that divided Conservatives and Liberal Democrats when they entered Government together, with the coalition deal allowing a Lib Dem spokesman to speak out against any new nuclear plants, while Lib Dem MPs could abstain on the issue.
Lib Dem Energy Secretary Chris Huhne has since given his backing to new reactors, insisting they would not be subsidised by the taxpayer - although MPs have warned that reform of the electricity market could favour nuclear power and amount to a hidden subsidy.
The Government is planning the new suite of reactors to maintain electricity supplies and cut greenhouse gas emissions as an old generation of power stations is shut down.
The future of nuclear as a power source for countries around the world was called into question earlier this year after the Japanese earthquake and tsunami rocked the reactors at Fukushima, leaving radioactivity leaking from the plant.
Mr Huhne signalled last month that plans for new reactors in the UK were on track after an initial report on Fukushima from nuclear chief inspector Mike Weightman ruled out the need to curtail the operation of nuclear power stations in the UK in light of the situation in Japan.
The energy policy statements aim to provide a framework for making planning decisions so projects do not face "unnecessary hold-ups".
They set out the need for billions of pounds of investment in new energy sources, including 33 gigawatts of renewable power - the equivalent of thousands of offshore wind turbines - to meet the UK's future needs.
Energy minister Charles Hendry said: "Around a quarter of the UK's generating capacity is due to close by the end of this decade. We need to replace this with secure, low carbon, affordable energy.
"This will require over £100 billion worth of investment in electricity generation alone.
"This means twice as much investment in energy infrastructure in this decade as was achieved in the last decade.
"Industry needs as much certainty as possible to make such big investments.
"These plans set out our energy need to help guide the planning process, so that if acceptable proposals come forward in appropriate places, they will not face unnecessary hold-ups."
He said the coalition Government was determined to make the UK attractive to investors to ensure that the country had secure, affordable, low-carbon energy.
A VERY small Beatrix Potter drawing has sold for nearly £50,000 at an auction in America.
The three-and-three-quarter inches by six inches ink and watercolour had been expected to sell for up to 37,500 at the Sotheby's auction, in New York, but reached £47,438
The miniature, called 'Guinea pigs going to their garden...' was among 193 original illustrations sold by wealthy American couple, Kendra and Allan Daniel. The painting depicts four guinea pigs following a fifth along a path carrying garden tools.
A spokesman for Sotheby's said: "Early in 1893, when she was in her twenties, Beatrix Potter borrowed a number of guinea pigs from her friend, Miss Paget. One, named Mr Chopps, proved to be no problem but another, named Queen Elizabeth, apparently 'took to eating blotting paper, pasteboard, string and other curious substances and expired during the night. A pair of gardening illustrations date from this time: four guinea pigs following a blue-coated guinea pig and four guinea pigs working under the guidance of the blue-coated guinea pig.
"These were later redrawn in 1922 and used in Potter's book Cecil Parsley's Nursery Rhymes."
THE Bassenthwaite Ospreys have moved home to live in marshes nearer to Bassenthwaite Lake.
After successfully nesting at their treetop summer home at Dodd Wood since 2008, the pair decided it was time for a change and have been gradually building a new nest since returning from their wintering grounds in West Africa.
Fortunately, the new site is visible from the Dodd Wood viewpoint so visitors can still enjoy watching the birds of prey this season.
Ospreys are normally faithful to successful nest sites, so the move was a bit of a shock for staff at the Lake District Osprey Project (LDOP). This is only the second time staff have seen the ospreys change nest in the project's 11-year history.
Nathan Fox of the RSPB's Lake District Osprey Project, said: 'It has been an interesting and exciting start to the season, with the birds deciding to move. We have been working closely with local landowners and farmers to make sure that the birds are fully protected and therefore have a good chance of raising their chicks."

Registration Now Open for Civil War History and Virginia Vineyard Tour
Savor Civil War history in the Valley of Virginia and a taste of some of Virginia's best wines on the "Grapes of Wrath Tour 2" with the Friends of Fort Ward! Sign up now for this spring tour on Saturday, May 7, exploring Stonewall Jackson's 1862 Shenandoah Valley Campaign.
Expanding on the wartime history of the Valley of Virginia featured in the Friends' first "Grapes of Wrath" tour last fall, popular guide and military historian Col. Robert Hudson will highlight Gen. Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's 1862 Valley Campaign, often studied as a textbook example of a numerically inferior force defeating a superior adversary. Jackson was charged with creating a distraction and preventing reinforcements from being sent to Union Gen. George McClellan on the outskirts of Richmond. He exceeded beyond expectations, using speed, surprise, and maneuver to defeat exposed elements of three separate Union armies.
The tour will visit Pritchard Farm and Rose Hill, two sites associated with the First Battle of Kernstown, Jackson's only loss in the campaign. The tour will make several stops at sites related to the Battle of Front Royal, which featured the notorious Confederate spy Belle Boyd and pitted the 1st Maryland (Union) against the 1st Maryland (Confederate). The battles of McDowell, Winchester, Cross Keys and Port Republic will also be discussed.
In the afternoon, the tour will visit the award-winning Philip Carter Winery in Hume, Virginia, for a wine tasting – a great opportunity to appreciate how history, good wine and good company come together on a Friends of Fort Ward bus tour! The Philip Carter Winery was established in 2008 by Philip Carter Strother, a direct descendant of the pioneering Carter family, who were among the first Virginians to grow vines and produce wine in the early 1760s.
Advance tour registration is required. The registration fee is $130 before April 22, and $140 after that date. Fee includes transportation, guide and admission fees, box lunch, snacks, and wine tasting, and non-members receive a one-year enrollment in the Friends of Fort Ward.
The bus will depart from the Fort Ward Museum parking lot, 4301 West Braddock Road, at 7:30 a.m. and return at approximately 6 p.m. Participants are advised to dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes.
Please call Fort Ward Museum at 703.746.4848 to register or get more information.

How to Use a Shampoo Color Cap
- Coloring your hair is great for uplifting your mood, but getting it right and maintaining it is a hassle. The key to maintaining your look is keeping your roots gorgeous, and that is also the most difficult part. Touching up roots is easy when you use this color cap technique to ensure your ends come out perfectly too
Things You'll Need:
- Leftover color treatment
- Color-safe shampoo
- Mixing bowl
- Applicator brush
- Mix your leftover color with about 1 tbsp. of color-safe shampoo in a mixing bowl with the applicator brush
- Apply the mixture to your ends with the applicator brush, and massage it into your hair down to the roots just like when you normally shampoo your hair
- Allow the color to set for 5 to 10 minutes. Make sure you let the treated shampoo sit in your hair for long enough to finish the setting process
- Rinse your hair and shampoo it with untreated color-safe shampoo. Then condition and style it like you normally do
Tips & Warnings:

When it comes to car guys, pretty much everybody has a project. It provides something to work on during the evenings, and gives us something to talk about with fellow car guys. Let's just say it's healthy to have a project car of some sort to keep your mind occupied. Of course, some folks get carried away and take on too many projects at once. This usually results in very little progress because the efforts get spread so thin. It's hard to find a happy medium, but purchasing a complete running and driving car that simply needs minor updates is a step in the right direction for a beginner. In fact, you'll probably save money with this approach, even if you're a seasoned gearhead.
Building your first Chevy will be a challenge, no matter the car's condition, but that's part of the fun. However, a car that presents too much of a challenge can quickly suck the fun right out of the equation, and give you more headaches down the road. For instance, buying a car just because it's cheap only makes sense if the car is buildable. And if you take a step backward and learn what the term "buildable" means for you, your skill level and budget, then you're more educated than most buyers in this market.
Sit down and crunch the numbers to see exactly how much you want to spend, and base the build around that. Some of the cars you see in Super Chevy are extravagant and wicked fast, but you must consider the dollar amounts and man hours involved with each project. Your first Bow Tie build needs to be simple. It always helps if you can stick to a budget, so lay out the groundwork before you go all in on a project car.
If you're looking for a starting point, searching the internet on sites like www.autotraderclassics.com isn't a bad way to start. There are lots of good deals out there right now, especially on cars that are outdated, or need some work to be road worthy. Beware of deals that are too good to be true, because there are a lot of those on the Net. And don't forget about your local newspaper. It seems like an archaic way to list a car for sale these days, but plenty of people out there still use local print ads to get the word out. Finding a car locally makes for a simpler buying process, because you can physically look at the car without driving hundreds of miles or relying on cell phone pictures to determine its condition. Sometimes these cars have a bit of history among the local car guy ranks, and that's always cool.
Once you find the right car, it's a matter of doing what you can to make it better, whether it's complete or disassembled. If the car is a total basket case, then your best bet is to figure out the parts you need to order just to get it running. A key element to building your first Chevy is making it run and drive. This provides motivation to keep working, and certainly renews interest in a build that has fallen through the cracks over time. For any gearhead, firing an engine for the first time is a moment of many emotions, the two most prominent being excitement that it's actually running, and fear that it might fly apart. Again, challenges are part of a project car, and knowing how to handle them is a benefit of experience. Long-time car guys can give you more tips and tricks than we could ever fit in this article. Having an experienced friend to help along the way is always a good thing. Rarely does a car get built single-handedly, so don't hesitate to invite your buddies over for a garage night every once in a while. If you find it necessary, sweeten the deal with a few pizzas and plenty of cold drinks.

Yoga for Walkers
Whether you walk to relax, energize, or burn calories, walking is an easy way to build your fitness levels and enjoy the great outdoors--not to mention relieve stress and recharge your energy supplies. But, be careful--you might be tightening your hips, hamstrings, and lower back. Yoga can help by stretching and conditioning the muscles that are essential to walking properly. Try these yoga positions to complement and enhance your walking workouts. You'll find that over time these yoga positions will also help improve your overall sense of well-being. If your walking routine involves hoofing it on a treadmill, your lower body is getting a good workout, but some parts might need loosening up. "On a treadmill, your hips and hamstrings will get toned but tight," says Robin Levine, owner of Intelligent Yoga in New York City. Adding poses 5 and 6 to your routine will stretch your body and add definition to your arms without further exhausting your legs.

'Vampire Woman' Completely Covered in Tattoos
Anthony Garcia may have gotten away with a 2004 murder outside a liquor store if it wasn't for the fact that he tattooed a detailed mural of the crime scene across his chest that authorities recognized. One of Garcia's tattoos shows a man with the body of a peanut being hit by bullets and falling back toward the liquor store. In gang slang, the word "peanut" is used to derisively describe a rival gang member. "He tattooed his confession on his chest. You have a degree of fate with this," Capt. Mike Parker told the Los Angeles Times.

After Kimberley Vlaeminck's proposed lawsuit against tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz made headlines around the world, Vlaeminck admitted that she lied to reporters. Vlaeminck originally claimed that she wanted Toumaniantz to tattoo three stars on her face but he tattooed 56 stars instead, while she fell asleep during the procedure. She told British newspaper, "The Daily Telegraph" that she "initially adored" the tattoos, but after her father reacted angrily to them she made up a story to blame Toumaniantz instead. The tattooist has since withdrawn his offer to pay for half the cost of removing the tattoos. He also plans to get written consent from all his clients in advance of any tattooing in the future.

Tattoo Festival
The Hell City Tattoo Festival was held this past weekend at the Biltmore Resort in Phoenix. Organizers said the annual event -- which featured seminars, live entertainment and the chance to come away with a tattoo of your own (providing you were over 18) -- attracted some 6,000 people from all over the country over the three-day weekend.

Tattoo artists once used rakes and chisels before applying pigment to the skin. Fortunately, times have changed. Sterile instruments and years of apprenticeship have improved safety. Artists usually begin the process with a sketch or an outline, applying that template to the skin. They then work the needle and ink with diligence and care for hours at a time. The sensation, clients report, is similar to a bee sting, a slight tickling or a sunburn.

Some tattoo fanatics came to Phoenix specifically to be tattooed by their favorite artists, traveling across the country for the detailed craftsmanship the artists bring.

From FCNL-House to vote again on Iraq
This week the House voted 399 to 24 to extend the ban on the U.S.
building permanent bases in Iraq past the end of September 2007.
Although this measure by itself will not stop the war or the president's plans for a long-term military presence in Iraq, the House action is another demonstration that members of Congress are concerned about the direction of U.S. policy in Iraq.
From Center for Arms Control-Some Highlight of the Defense Appropriations Bill
The Senate should be debating the Defense Appropriations Bill at any time.
Here are some highlights. Many of these are Cold War Weapons, which is a good subject for letters to the editor:
Future Combat Systems (FCS) Fully funds the Administration's $3.6 billion request for Future Combat Systems, an advanced collection of armored vehicles, robots, and aerial drones connected through a sophisticated battle command network. The House cut $867 million from FCS in its version of the authorization bill.
From FCNL Cluster Bombs and more
The Senate has taken a first step toward banning the export of cluster bombs, a weapon with a particularly deadly record of killing and maiming civilians. Just before the July 4 recess, the Senate Appropriations Committee added a provision banning cluster bomb exports to the bill funding the State Department.
Senate due to vote on RRW
The Senate is scheduled to vote on the Reliable Replacement Weapon during the week of June 25.
The House Appropriations Committee has already voted to zero out funding for the RRW. The Committee said that, almost two decades after the end of the Cold War, the United States does not have a plausible nuclear strategy and essentially put a freeze on long-term spending until we develop one.

|Natalie's Orchid Island Juice Company
Voted #1 by the popular recipe blog, Serious Eats; Extolled by Bon Appetit; Selected as the top premium orange juice pick by both Christopher Kimball of Cooks Illustrated, and in a blind tasting by Lester Holt on the Today Show, and now (drumroll please) selected a 4-STAR star sip at KosherEye!
We discovered Natalie's Orchid Island Juice at the Summer Fancy Food Show, as we browsed hundreds of exhibits, and sampled aisles and aisles of kosher products. We knew even then, at first taste, that Natalie's Super premium juices were superb. In addition to the accolades listed above, the company, which specializes in fresh–queezed and gourmet–pasteurized citrus juices, has accumulated several national taste–test awards to back that claim up.
Natalie's is headquartered in Fort Pierce Florida; smack in the center of orange country. And since most think that Florida oranges are the sweetest, this is a geographically desirable location. The Orchid Island Juice Company was started in 1989, family owned and operated, the company makes juice year round using only Florida fruit. The fruit is picked and squeezed at its peak, and delicately pasteurized at the lowest possible temperature for the shortest length of time, to retain taste and nutritional value. The juice is never inventoried, but squeezed when orders are placed.
In addition to juice quality, Natalie's has received awards for being environmentally friendly. And, the company prides itself that everything from the bottles, packaging, and labeling are environmentally friendly.
Natalie's squeezes oranges and grapefruit 12 months of the year. There are over 15 different orange varieties grown in Florida, each with its own unique flavor, color, and aroma. We think that Natalie's juices provide a delicious, refreshing way to sip healthy! All Natalie's Orchid Island juices are OU certified kosher.
What we liked best about Natalie's was the taste (real), the quality (fresh) and the purity of these juices.
Some of our favorites:
