      <description>Fisker-based Destino still in the works, hundreds of Karma owners seek conversion   Wards Auto   reports the  VL Productions Destino  is still moving forward. As you may recall, that machine takes a  Fisker Karma  hybrid, guts the drivetrain and replaces it with a honking 556 horsepower V8 from General Motors.  Bob Lutz , while speaking with  Wards ,
 confirmed that VL Productions had obtained 20 Karma &quot;gliders&quot; without a
 battery, engine or electric motor, and that VL may purchase Karma 
hybrids from dealers currently looking to dump their inventory. Lutz 
also says that hundreds of current Karma owners have approached VL 
Productions about the possibility of converting their hybrids to V8 
power.



That conversion could cost between $85,000 and $95,000. Right now, VL 
has around 100 orders for standard Destino models, each with a price tag
 of $185,000. Not surprisingly, much of that demand has come from the 
Middle East.  Wards  reports that the first wave of deliveries 
are set to begin in the third quarter of this year. Buyers can expect to
 find a 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 engine lifted from the  Cadillac CTS-V  under the hood, coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission. 
 Fisker Karma prices tanking on used market Buying into a new, fledgling automaker is always a big risk - the 
early-adopter upside has the potential to be great, but the downside can
 look like the mother of all hangovers. Unsurprisingly, that's the 
unpleasant financial reality facing  Fisker Karma  owners as they look to unload their extended-range electric sedans while the company's future bleakens.



We've been keeping tabs on used Karma prices on eBay Motors and other 
websites for some time now, and there's been a steady stream of the 
voluptuous sedans on offer since not long after they first became 
available. Early on, we initially chalked that up to speculators, but 
moved on to imagining disgruntled owners as more and more mechanical and
 electrical problems were brought to light. Now, however, there's a 
bumper crop of  Fisker  models on the used market, with  NBC News  and  Business Insider 
 reporting that pre-owned examples are trading for under half their 
six-digit MSRPs just one year ago. Around 2,500 Karmas were made, and 
eBay Motors is playing host to 26 of them alone as this piece is being 
written. Scan over to  AOL Autos ' listings, and there are 126 entries.



For its part, the embattled startup has yet to declare bankruptcy, but it has laid off most of its employees and  hired experts in the field  suggesting they will soon. What's more, officials are looking to to recover as much of the  $192 million in federal loans the company received ,
 and despite some potential suitors sniffing around, no buyer for the 
company has emerged. No surprise, then, that Karma owners are looking to
 unload their models, likely fearing not only for their vehicles' resale
 values, but also the continued availability of parts and service.



Question: If Karma prices continue to crater apace, how soon until shadetree mechanics follow the lead of Bob Lutz's  VL Automotive Destino , which bins the Fisker's complex plug-in hybrid powertrain in favor of the supercharged LS9 V8 from the  Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 ? 



 GM stock prices finally eclipse $33 IPO price  General Motors  has reached
 an important milestone this morning: the price for one share of the 
company has climbed to over $33. That's higher than the Initial Public 
Offering price from 2010. At roughly 12:15PM Eastern today, GM shares 
were up $0.97 on the day, some 2.99 percent, for a total of $33.36. The   Detroit Free Press  reports 
 that the last time GM stock closed over $33 was on May 4, 2011. GM 
stock has been steadily growing in value throughout 2013. The stock 
price is up by 14 percent since the start of the year.



The jump over $33 per share is undoubtedly great news for both investors
 and GM employees, who've suffered through some scary moments over the 
last few years. In 2012, the share price fell below $19. Later that 
summer,  GM CEO Dan Akerson spent some $500,000 on 25,000 shares  as a vote of confidence in the embattled automaker (shares that are now worth roughly $825k... nicely played, Dan).



As has been widely reported, the $33 price still is far from the 
break-even point for the shares purchased by the US Government, however.
 The  Treasury Department is still planning on divesting itself 
 of GM shares by early 2014, and would need to see roughly $75 per share
 to break even on the investment it made in 2009 as part of the 
company's bankruptcy restructuring.</description>

      <title>The RIFLE WITH THE TECH THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO MISS A SHOT</title>
      <pubDate>Thu, 16 May 2013 10:38:55 -0400</pubDate>

      <description>A rifle equipped with technology that allows even a novice marksman to achieve a perfect shot nearly every time has ruffled some feathers. But as the system is now on sale the manufacturer said demand has been so high there's a wait list for interested customers.

The  TrackingPoint  rifle with its &quot;Xact System&quot; is classified as a &quot;precision guided firearm,&quot; and  claims to be  &quot;the most accurate shooting system in the world.&quot;

&quot;It delivers five times the first-shot success rate of traditional systems, at targets up to 1,200 yards, regardless of shooter skill level,&quot; TrackingPoint's website  states .

The system includes a custom rifle, ammunition, a tracking scope with &quot;heads up display&quot; and a guided trigger. The system adjusts for various factors including range, temperature, barometric pressure, wind and more.

Here's all the shooter has to do:

Paints the target with the tag to lock on Watches as the tag persists, regardless of relative movement Aligns the reticle with the tag to produce the firing solution Squeezes and holds the trigger to arm the system  
After being featured at the Shot Show earlier this year, TrackingPoint's system is now for sale and demand is &quot;overwhelming,&quot; the company's  President Jason Schauble told NPR . He also noted that Remington Arms is interested in the technology for its rifles.

But not everyone is happy about the system that allows the potentially inexperienced to achieve an easy on-target shot. NPR provides more on this perspective:

One hunter who doesn't want one is Chris Wilbratte. He says the TrackingPoint system undermines what he calls hunting's &quot;fair chase.&quot;

&quot;It's the traditional shooting fish in a barrel or the sitting duck. I mean, there's no skill in it, right? It's just you point, you let the weapons system do its thing and you pull the trigger and now you've killed a deer. There's no skill,&quot; Wilbratte says.

 

Chris Frandsen, a West Point graduate who fought in Vietnam, doesn't believe the TrackingPoint technology should be allowed in the civilian world. The gun makes it too easy for a criminal or a terrorist to shoot people from a distance without being detected, he says.

&quot;Where we have mental health issues, where we have children that are disassociated from society early on, when we have terrorists who have political cards to play, we have to restrict weapons that make them more efficient in terrorizing the population,&quot; Frandsen says.

For these concerns, Schauble told NPR the company sells the firearm directly, not through gun dealers, so it can make sure customers are vetted. He also said there is password protection on the gun's scope, which without being inputted would take the precision shooting capability out of the picture. It would still fire without a password but wouldn't have &quot;the tag/track/exact&quot; capabilities.




Ars Technica  reported in January that the cost  for the TrackingPoint system starts around $17,000.

The system also comes with an app that can stream real-time video from the heads up display.

&quot;This kind of technology, in addition to making shooting more fun for  , also allows shooting to be something that they share with others,&quot;</description>

      <description>A French M51 ballistic missile self-destructed off the coast of Brittany during a test on Sunday, May the 5th 2013



The missile &amp;quot;self-destructed during its first propulsion phase... for
 an unknown reason,&amp;quot; Lieutenant Commander Lionel Delort, a spokesman for
 the Atlantic Naval Prefecture.
&amp;quot;It was a failure, the reasons will be determined by an investigation,&amp;quot; said the spokesman.


The test-fire was carried out from the Vigilant strategic nuclear 
submarine in the Bay of Audierne at 0730 GMT. The missile was obviously not 
carrying a nuclear warhead and landed in the ocean after its 
destruction.
The M51 was put into operation in 2010 after five successful test launches and has a range of 8,000-10,000 km.
