Shell Eco-marathon Asia - the Urban Concept class. Over several days, teams make as many attempts as possible to travel the furthest on the equivalent of one litre of fuel. Cars drive a fixed number of laps around the circuit at a set speed. Organisers calculate their energy efficiency and name a winner in each class and for each energy source. (photo by Ben Cho)

Barnacles are Crustacean animals in the class of invertebrates as crabs, prawns etc. The larvae are free swimming and go through several swimming stages until they eventually anchor to rock or other hard surfaces such as piers and boats. Barnacles then form protective plates which encases them and are then unable to move. They sweep plankton into the centre of their encasement when immersed at low tide. Often barnacles are above the waterline in lowtide and can endure high temperatures on the rock upon which they live.

"24 jumbo pasta shells (from 12-oz box)

1 lb lean Italian turkey sausage, casings removed

1 container (15 oz) light ricotta cheese

2 cups shredded reduced-fat Italian cheese blend (8 oz)

1 box (9 oz) Green Giant® frozen spinach, thawed, squeezed to drain

1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves

3/4 cup finely shredded carrots (1 medium)

1 jar (25.5 oz) Muir Glen® organic Italian herb pasta sauce

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Cook and drain pasta as directed on package, omitting salt.

2 In 10-inch nonstick skillet, crumble sausage. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until no longer pink; drain.

3 In medium bowl, stir ricotta cheese, 1 cup of the Italian cheese blend, the spinach and basil until well mixed. Stir in carrots and sausage.

Photos taken on Jan 11, 2009 of a former Shell Gasoline Station. This station has gone through a series of owners and changes. About 5 years ago, it was cleaned up to its current appearance, looking more like how it originally appeared when it operated as a Shell Station. Located at Vermont and Venice Blvd. in Los Angeles California.
