Answer 1

I think the closes you'll get, without actually going in to change some core files...

is Query Scope...

Scopes allow you to easily re-use query logic in your models. To define a scope, simply prefix a model method with scope:

class News extends Eloquent {
   public function scopeStatus($query)
    {
     return $query->where('status', '=', 1);
    }
 }

Utilizing that scope

 $news  = News::status()->get();
 $news2  = News::status()->where('anotherColumn',2)->get();

Its not quite what you wanted...but its definitely a little shorter than typing

 News::where('status','=',1)->get();

over and over
