4.46/5 rDev +8.3%
A - Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Pours a nice copper color with a two finger head and heavy lacing left around the edge of the glass.
S - The smell is quite glorious and I instantly want to rush to taste what is next. Citrus flavors overwhelm the nose. Strong smells of hops also come through which is to be expected from this selection.
T - Malty flavors right away along with floral and grapefruit flavors. It's a very smooth beer and based on the smell I would have expected it to be far more bitter on the finish but in a very pleasant way, it is not overly bitter whatsoever.
M - A full-bodied beer with moderate carbonation which allows for a full flavor profile to come through. Despite the 9.6% ABV this beer is quite drinkable and would be ideal for any season.
O - I would highly recommend this beer to anyone even if they are apprehensive of hops overpowering their beer. And as I stress once again, 9.6% alcohol, it'll get the job done. Well done Lagunitas, you have yourselves another winner.

3.8/5 rDev -7.8%
Man I love the labels of the Lagunitas line of beers,this new Sneak Release pours a deep rich bronze with a pillowy 1 1/2 finger slight off white head that settles slowly almost into a creamy-like mass.At first sharp grapefruit and fresh cut grass hop aromas but they do fade quickly losing a bit of their punch but still very nice.I have to say the hops dont pack as much punch on the palate obviously there is quite a punch but not as much to be expected,somewhat dry and resiny up front with a real piney presence a sweetish caramel malt base shows itself in the finish as well the hops do linger a bit.Not as bitter as the label might suggest but still a solid brew from one of my favorite brewers,keep up the good work guys.

On tap at local Flying Saucer Emporium. Pours dark amber red. Little to no head with tan color. Lacing on glass very pronounced. Taste is malty and sweet with an alcohol warmth on the back end. Aroma is pine and grapefruit. Delicious DIPA will definitely try again.

Lagunitas Sneak Release Undercover Investigation Shut-Down Ale pours a clear orange red with a nice creamy head that lingers for quite a while. From the moment I opened the bottle I was hit with big citrusy hop aroma, grapefruit, and pine backed up with a good amount of malt sweetness. The sweetness is predominate in the flavor, lots of caramel and toffee, but there is no lack of citrusy hop flavor. There is a nice bitterness that rounds out the beer, but not overpowering for the beers strength. A bit of alcohol comes through in the finish, but not too much for a beer of the strength.

Only $3.79 for a bomber @ Cable Beverage in Bardonia, NY (this place consistently has the goods)
Pours darker amber, pretty clear, typical darker tan head, leaves real nice striated lacing.
Grainy hop nose, leads to the expected and appreciated quite hoppy nectar. Grainy and resiny hop notes and I get a hint of mint. Pleasant enough, not in the ranks of the world class DIPAs but at that price, its a bargain.

Interesting beer. Pours clear mahogany with a decent, but short-lived head. Floral, hoppy aroma with pine and nuts. Leads you to believe this will be more on the Imperial Red side. Its not. Lots of malt and caramel, with some woodiness. The hops are there, but very tempered, almost run over by the malt. In the end, this is still pretty good.

Clear orangey honey color with a full inch of frothy foamy thick head that slowly settles.
Aroma of grapefruit, floral notes and brown sugar, plus a subtle hint of the ABV.
Rich flavor of pine and grapefruit rind, alcohol warmth, and firm malt backbone to balance it out. Notes of honey, ripe apple and pear, scorched brown sugar. Faint notes of phenols and smoke.
Substantial mouthfeel, full and chewy, some alcohol warmth, followed by a definite tingle across the tongue.
Good drinkability, but it will sneak up on you.

4.97/5 rDev +20.6%
A: A bronze colored pour with about 1-2 fingers of head
S: A nice hoppy smell with a bit of fruitiness
T: A nice strong punch of hops
M: Mild carbonation, relatively smooth, with a little alcohol feel in the finish
D: One of my favorites. I will miss it until next year as I think i have depleted all of my local supplies. I have purchased at least 20 six packs of this, although much has been shared with friends. A really great beer to sit down and drink 2-3 while watching my favorite sporting event on television

A dark yellow to light orange color, a little ruby highlight to it, good stuff, Lagunitas always looks the role. Big hoppy aroma, standard fare.
Big beer, much like Sumpin Sumpin, but whereas that had wheat, this is just barley with gobs of caramel. The hopping is big and grapefruity, the typical job by Lagunitas. If you're a fan of Arrogant Bastard Ale, this beer should do the trick for you, and its just a tad cheaper.

Had on-tap at the Brick Store in Atlanta.
Pours a clear light copper color with a one-finger off-white head. The head recedes into a thin pancake on top leaving solid lacing.
Smells of citrus and pine hop aromas with hints of creamy pale malt.
Tastes similar to how it smells. Robust pale malt flavors up front are joined shortly by mild citrus and solid pine flavors. Midway through the sip there's a mild vanilla flavor, though with more of a creaminess than most vanilla flavors from oak flavors. The ending is mildly bitter.
Mouthfeel is good. It's got a solid thickness with moderate carbonation.
Drinkability is good. I finished the glass easily and could have a few more.
Overall this is another solid offering from Lagunitas. Slowly but surely they're becoming a smaller Sierra Nevada, with many hoppy offerings that never disappoint. This one is worth a shot.

Newcomers made a strong showing this year among shoppers, as specialty grocer Trader Joes and floral designer Flowers at Will took third-place honors in their categories after being open for a matter of months not years or decades.
Some local giants beat out national and global companies that have stores all over the Valley, too. Fast-growing Boise-based discount grocer WinCo is known for a few things. Its often cheaper than its competitors, and WinCo isnt shy about proving as much: It hangs price-comparison signs over its most competitively priced products. WinCos employee-owned structure has created some millionaire cashiers and a high retention rate among staff. And the no-frills approach customers bag their own groceries and cant use credit cards helps keeps prices low.
Nampa-based Zamzows and its catchy radio ads may lead you to believe its bread and butter is its exhaustive inventory of natural lawn-care and garden supplies. But fans know Zamzows also carries pet food and supplies enough to win Best Pet Store.
The 76-year-old retailer has its own brand of dog food, cat food and treats, such as Grandma Zs beef and potato dog treats. Among the retailers products is Zamzows Spot Be Gone, an additive for dog food or water that the company says will neutralize dog urine that creates conspicuous dead spots all over the lawn.
The Best Shoe Store wasnt a shoe store at all: Dillards is a department store with a popular shoe section. Major retailer DSW whose Boise store opened fairly recently is more like a vast shoe emporium and took a close second.
Tucked away in a shopping center on Fairview west of Locust Grove in Meridian, Kidz Again beat out strong competitors for both Best Childrens Clothing Store and Best Consignment Shop. The store buys and sells clothing, toys and baby equipment. It knows its target market: parents with fast-growing kids. Kidz Again will pay money for outgrown onesies, then its customer can turn right around and buy a toddler outfit with the cash.

Are You Getting Bored With Social Media? [INFOGRAPHIC]
Are you finding social media boring?
Facebook has been with us for a little more than a decade, Twitter since 2006, and some 73 percent of online adults now use at least one social media site. But recent studies have revealed that six in 10 dislike excessive sharing on social media, with other polls suggesting a growing malaise.
So what's going on? Has the success of social media led it to become the norm and, much like any other everyday thing, a bit passé? Is it simply a case of information overload? Or have the day in, day out updates from the people you follow and pages you Like simply become a little too dry? A little too ordinary?
Boring? *
This infographic from Delvv looks at why you might be bored using social media.
* I've said it before and I'll say it again: if you find Twitter boring, it's entirely your fault.

Cosplayers Dress Up As Carpet, Carpet Designers Are Not Pleased
We Can't Have Nice ThingsAt DragonCon last month, a couple of cosplayers decided to sidestep the usual fare of superheroes and cartoon characters in favor of dressing up as the carpet at the Marriott hotel where the con takes place. Yup, there was carpet-colored camo. That is a real thing that now exists. Naturally, other people wanted to emulate the design, but, alas, this psychedelic carpet army was not to be - because Courtisan Inc., the company that designed the original rug, issued a Cease and Desist soon after the design went up.

Dragon*Con Finally Cuts Financial Ties With Co-Founder and Accused Molester Ed Kramer
Ed Kramer isn't exactly a great guy, even if he did co-found the convention.
The organization behind Dragon*Con, the Atlanta-based multi-genre geek convention that will reach its 27th year when it's held at the end of this August, has announced that it has bought out the shares held by co-founder Edward Kramer, a man that has been facing trial for child molestation since 2000. Though Kramer has had no involvement with the convention's organization or planning since that time, he has continued to profit from his 34% ownership of the company's stock. After years of criticism of Kramer's continued association with the convention, the company has finally conceded to public opinion and forced him out.Read More

Beeman P3 air pistol – Part 2
by B.B. Pelletier
Test and photos by Earl "Mac" McDonald
Today, we'll look at the performance of Mac's personal Beeman P3 pistol. You'll remember that this is a single-stroke pneumatic pistol with some fine handling features and a great trigger. Two things that many owners have mentioned is that the pistol is difficult to load and that it's hard to pump (they often say cock). I disagree with the loading statement but agree with the pumping one. While the P3 isn't as easy to load as a breakbarrel rifle, it's not that difficult, either. You just have to learn the technique.
As for the pumping, it's about average for a single-stroke of this power and size. It's surprising those without previous single-stroke experience. A Gamo Compact target pistol of similar size and power is equally difficult to pump. For the record, Mac agrees that the pistol is difficult to load.
It's been very hot on the East Coast this summer; and when Mac tested the P3 outdoors, it was 95 deg. F with high humidity. The wind was still on test day.
Crosman Premier lites
The 7.9-grain Crosman Premier lite averaged 383 f.p.s. with a total velocity spread from 380 to 387. That's just seven f.p.s., which is pretty typical of a single-stroke. Their reservoirs hold the same amount of air from shot to shot and they tend to be very consistent. I did not test my Marksman 2004 (which is now the Beeman P17) with Premiers, so no comparison is available. The average energy for this pellet was 2.57 foot pounds.
RWS Hobbys
The RWS Hobby pellet averaged 409 f.p.s. with a 10 foot/second spread from 406 to 416. That's an average muzzle energy of 2.6 foot-pounds. The Hobby weighs only 7 grains and is made of nearly pure lead, so it should be among the fastest of the lead pellets. Once again, I have no comparison numbers from my Marksman 2004 with Hobbys.
JSB Exact pellets
The next pellet Mac tested was the JSB Exact Match, weighing 8.4 grains. The name Match is misleading because this is a domed pellet, not a wadcutter, but that's what it says on the tin. They averaged 385 f.p.s. with a max spread of 9 f.p.s., from 379 to 388. The average muzzle energy was 2.77 foot-pounds — the highest of the four pellets tested. By coincidence, I'd also tested the Marksman 2004 with this pellet. In my gun, it averaged 411 f.p.s., so somewhat faster than Mac's gun. I estimate my pistol has about 400-600 shots on it, while Mac figures his has about 1,000.
H&N Finale Match Pistol
The 7.56-grain H&N Finale Match Pistol pellet averaged 396 f.p.s. with a 6 foot/second spread, from 393 to 399. The average muzzle energy was 2.63 foot-pounds. That was the lowest velocity spread of the four pellets tested.
The comparison?
In this report, I did something I almost never do. I compared two airguns against one another. I did it because the Beeman P3 and Beeman P17 are so much alike, yet their prices are so far apart. The differences that I know of boil down to this: the P3 has an ultra-crisp trigger while the P17 trigger has some creep, and the P3 has a reputation for reliability while the P17 has been known to have sealing problems.
In the next report, Mac will show us the accuracy of this pistol. You'll recall that he's mounted a red dot sight on his gun, plus he shot it rested, so you can expect the best the gun has to give. We'll learn what that is in Part 3.

I know I'm new to all this air-gunning. This seems rather expensive for such a low powered pistol. Granted it is of fine quality but where do you draw the line? Does it mainly depend on power plant? I'm not trying to start anything just asking questions. Don't have money to throw around, that's why I only own a 2240. What is the best power plant for a pistol?
rikib if you have money buy Browning 800 mag,in my opinion power mainly depends on capacity of power plant
What can i do i love this Browning pistol -when air pistol goes head to head with airguns then that is accomplishment i respect
The Browning looks great! My concern is that a lot of comments on here are about broken spring issues or piston problems. I get confused, maybe I just need to save a little more money and go the firearm route. The more I read on here it seems higher powered air guns have a lot of problems.
rikib -broken spring is easy to replace ,but i dont think that spring pistol would have same problem simply becouse spring is shorter -Diana airguns use too long badly made spring .I have yust yesterday tuned my Norconia spring air pistol -it is not powerfull stuff but NOW after my tinkering and grinding piston sure is accurate for 10m shooting
Thanks for that information. I guess the first thing I should do (on my limited money) is get the most out of my pistol I can starting with a longer barrel. Thanks again.
Cheap tuned air pistols are great couse i can re-use lead free skirted pellets so i can have whole day shooting with only one pellet
Not funny my 2240 always gets good reviews, maybe not the most high powered, but it is CO2. I've used lead-free pellets and never found one I could re-use, so I assume you were joking.
I AM NOT JOKING shoot in a book like i do (i use Hyper velocity field pellets)and YES i can re-use them when i find them i just put it back in plastic skirt and i have a new pellet
I was talking about my Chinese half-product Norconia pistol not 2240 sorry you miss understud me
If your questions "start something" then some people have waaay to much time on their hands.
Thanks! Even I on occasion don't like upset the equilibrium.
sorry grammar checker did not work.
In my home town about 40% of population is unimploed ,i am one of lucky guys and i do have a job -i mean a decent job like i am earning money job -now i dont really understand this "too much time on my hands "i am just trying to help
this is what is called a "colloquialism" or a saying that is unique to the particular language. In this particular case, I believe "too much time on one's hands" was said in a joking manner or with "tongue in cheek" – another colloquialism.
As you can tell, I'm not too busy with work right now. In fact, I'm trying to stay awake.

I need to sign off for the night and get some sleep. It may be morning there but it's almost 3 a.m. here.
Hi, Folks!
I have a chance to purchase an old Benjamin Franklin 132 pistol in .22 caliber that was made in the '60′s with 50% blue, with holster, for $85 plus shipping. The absence of blue doesn't bother me, but I was wondering what sort of accuracy I might be able to expect from this pistol in good working condition. Thanks.
rikib and c.s., these are essentially meant for target shooting, not plinking.
As is the Gamo compact. You can spend $2000 on a Steyr or FWB Olympic pistol and not get above 500 fps.
If you want power, these are not the pistols for you…as they say, different strokes for different folks. (so how old does this saying make me?)
I meant to say they are not meant for hunting…they're great plinkers.
you need to consider high priced air guns in the same category as high priced firearms. What would a Colt Gold Cup set you back? Now compare that to the P3 or even higher, such as the Crosman Silhouette Target Pistol or Anschulz or Stehyr target pistols. On the low end, for workman like rifles or plinkers, consider the bare bones Ruger 10/22 in blued steel versus say the Air Venturi Bronco. To compare this Ruger to, say, the TX200, is not proper due to their different quality levels and intents. You can get that Ruger priced in the are of the TX200 but you'd spend another $1,000 easily.
Follow what I'm saying?
Many folks, including myself, will make the mistake of cross-comparing air guns to firearms that were made for different categories and wonder why they command such different prices. It's all got to do with the power or accuracy the different guns were intended or designed for.
Fred PRoNJ
I've got a question about scopes vs peep sights. Now that I'm having to replace the spring on my 34, it has me second guessing some other things – like sights.
The scope I bought for the 34 is not so great. I believe that it is accurate and stable, but the focus is best described as 'soft' and the light throughput is dull. This makes it difficult for me to maintain eye dominance through the scope because my left eye is taking over – following the brighter light. This does not happen with my other scope, I believe because it is brighter. I used the open sights at first, but have difficulty maintaining focus on all elements which leads to guesswork while shooting. I have to choose what's in focus – the rear sight, the front sight or the target. I can't get any of the two in focus at the same time.
So, I'm thinking of changing to a peep sight like the inexpensive Daisy front/rear unless someone can talk me into the more expensive ones. I'm thinking of doing this for several reasons: 1) to save weight. 2) to simplify operation. 3) just to try something lower tech. 4) because it's Tuesday. Most of my shooting will be within 25 yards
Tuesdays and peep sights go together like bread and butter. I got the Daisy peep sight for my 953. I like it alot. My vision sucks. But I find it easier to line up a circle inside another circle, rather than line up posts and notches, and checking that the gaps are even on each side, leveled etc. That being said, everything else I have except the RR has a scope. I like scopes.
Fused, for the price the Daisy is a pretty good basic peep (as is the Williams).
First though (and I may be misunderstanding your question), you'll never get rear/front/target all in focus with any type of iron sight, including peep.
As with open iron sights, with a peep you focus on the front sight (either circle or post). You center that in the somewhat 'soft' rear aperture and place everything over the 'soft' (meaning fuzzy, out of focus) target.
I'd definitely recommend trying the inexpensive Daisy before opting for anything more expensive. The more expensive peeps (the Edge is a good one) allow more precise click adjustments plus they have the ability to add filters. These can be colored filters (green, yellow, red) to adjust your contrast in different conditions…or ND (neutral density filters).
The expensive peeps are mostly meant for 10m target shooting.
What cowboy said is true, imo. That is why an eye doc friend wants to make me some shooting glasses or a contact. His glasses is a bifocal that is on the top of the lens, not the bottom. The bifocal will be a prescription that will focus in the front sight. The bifocal will be on the top so I will not have to cock my head up to see, as I would have to if the bifocal was on the bottom of the lens, as most all bifocals do. I think that is what he told me.
I,for one,am on the edge of my seat….can't wait for the accuracy testing!I own two of the Marksman2004.My first one "fell"in my lap.I was at the wallyworld for dogfood,went by the sporting section.In the glass case there was an opened clamshell pack,you know,the ones that can cut you back.In it was a pistol I had never seen carried there.The man in the vest said more than once"you don't want that,it's broken".Well I showed him!I bought it for 7$,you know,'cause it was broken!I thought I might be able to fix it.There was NOTHING wrong with it,and there still isn't,5 years later.I've hunted soda cans to 30 yards[only in season]with great success.I now have two because I found another at a gun show for 30$!
Thanks for the responses. I was thinking that since you are looking through the aperture it would change the optics some. Wouldn't the target look sharper viewed through an aperture – sort of like a camera? If not, what is the benefit of an aperture sight over open sights?
From my experience a peep does change the focus. With open sights I'm like you, I can't get at least two of the items in focus at once. However, with the peep I can get the front sight and target in focus. It's the same as looking through a piece of paper with a pin hole in it. That pinhole definitely changes/improves focus. Another reason for the peep sight is that it shields your eye from external light entering your pupil.
fused. Whether your target is slightly fuzzy or not, it is much easier to obtain accuracy with a peep (which are traditionally used for target shooting) because it is very easy to center the circular bull (even if slightly fuzzy), in the circle of your front sight, then center that circle in the circular aperture of your rear sight (even if slightly fuzzy).
This as opposed to putting your bull on a post. Do you want the post touching the bull, centered in the bull, slightly below the bull? Then, do you want your front post at the same level as the top of your rear sight, slightly below, etc?
A lot of variables that can change slightly from shot to shot.
But with a circle (the peep is of course based on circles)…it is very easy to tell if one circle is centered in another…there's no variance from shot to shot so maintaining consistency is easier.
I bought some Skenco poly match pellets, and I can't load them into my daisy 953 target pro! The pellets almost seem too long. What should I do? I can't shoot lead pellets where i'm at, due to restrictions, so I need to make these work.
I'll be interested to see what Mac can produce rested with an optical sight on this gun.
On the subject of airgunning and firearms, my airgunning usually suffers after shooting firearms, but after this last trip, I actually improved. I attribute this in part to all of the rimfire shooting which is very similar to airgunning. Also, maybe my 100 shots a day is overdoing it and a break helps. I also noticed a certain amount of relief in returning to airgunning. Firearms are exciting with the big bang, the distances and the wind but all of that also subtracts from the details of firing technique which I can focus on better in my cardboard box.
Thanks to my discussion with Kevin yesterday, I realized that I don't even need to dry fire my rimfire guns with cases. By coordinating sight picture with trigger press, I get a fair simulation of a shot without releasing the trigger. Soon, I may not have to shoot at all….
To all who were not convinced by my Bob Lee Swagger excerpt from last night I would strongly recommend this series by Stephen Hunter. Hunter has been interviewed by American Rifleman and has a very deep knowledge of shooting stemming from a lifelong interest, and he knows how to write a page turner. To appreciate him, you just need to read some other action adventure novels. One I read had to do with an imitation James Bond character who lives in the Caribbean. His house overlooks the ocean and first thing in the morning, he leaps out of bed, grabs a fireman's pole and slides through a hole in the floor into a lagoon where he swims around (this is pretty cool); his butler catches exotic fish from this lagoon every night for dinner. Then, the hero embarks on a strenuous daily regimen of exercise consisting of hundreds of push-ups sit-ups and 2 X 3 miles of swimming in the ocean out to an island and back.
On his island, he likes to commune with nature by taking off his suit and sunbathing. But one day, he wakes up to find a blue beach towel next to him anchored by four pink shells (a nice touch I admit). He looks again to see a woman rising from the waves like Ursula Andress in Dr. No and wearing a barely visible suit that would make her ideal for an airgun ad. This woman is fabulously beautiful, a member of an aristocratic Russian family, and a professional artist. She walks up to our hero and with "hot emerald eyes" says, "You have an incredibly attractive body. It catches the light in interesting ways."
After a bit of this, you long for our homegrown Southern hero Bob Lee who says things like, "I will, by God, find him and face him down and we'll see who walks away."
Thanks to all for the responses to my pistol/power plant dilemma. Still got a lot of thinking to do (and money to come up with). Thanks for all the inputs.
I didn't think to mention this during our exchanges over the weekend, but I really appreciate debating an issue with someone who is logical, polite and informed, regardless of the outcome. Thank you. I look forward to reading your blog every day, even though I don't always have time to participate or knowledge to share.
Jim in KS
I have a very off-topic question.
I live in the suburbs but I have about 70 yds in my backyard to shoot in. I currently shoot at a large pellet trap. Because of the layout of the land, the trap is at a down angle. So even if I missed the above the trap by a few feet I would be hitting dirt.
I already checked with our local law enforcement and using an air rifle is OK in your own yard. I am also very cautious about shooting when there are other people in the area (we have neighbors bordering our back yard).
I still worry about neighbors being less than happy, so what are some things I can do that will improve safety and make the activity more private?
perhaps the most important thing is to find out how your neighbors feel about firearms. Even though we're talking about air rifles, the average, uneducated person won't make a distinction. Notice I said "won't" and not "can't". If they happen to be avid hunters/shooters/collectors – they'll be very interested and might even have suggestions for you. In fact, you might even be able to convert them to air guns. On the other hand, if they have a fear of anything that shoots, the best thing to do is don't let them see you.
Obviously, don't shoot in the direction of any yard where people are out, even if you are shooting in a downward direction or against a nice, large backstop. Accidents can happen and that's the last thing anyone would want. Conduct your shooting just as if you were on a public range.
Next, how loud is the gun you're using? The high powered rifles, like the Discovery, have a report on par with a .22 while the Crosman Marauder has a report like someone striking a triangle in a band. It's that quiet. Loud noises don't save lives (sorry Harley riders). They just annoy the heck out of everyone, leading to complaints so make sure you're using a quiet gun.
Let's see what the others on the Blog suggest.
Fred PRoNJ
I have Benjamin 397, but I generally shoot it with 4-5 pumps so it's not *really* that loud. However, there is some discussion of getting a quieter rifle.
I have started shooting from a room with a sliding door out into the back yard. So a lot of the report is kept within the house, but this is also not always appreciated.
The thought of discussing it with neighbors has crossed my mind, and I think most would be OK but all it takes is one to not be happy and I can think of one.
One question that has come up is building a small fence. I wouldn't be shooting at the fence but what would the stopping power of a wood/plastic fence be? Let's say for an 8 grain pellet going 600ft/s (my guesstimate on the 397). Or a medium weight 0.22 pellet going at roughly the same speed?
I started my air gun career with a Benj 392. My indoors pellet trap consisted of two foam pillows stuffed in a cardboard box with a piece of 1/4″ plywood behind as a safety. The .22 pellet never penetrated the box and on the odd occassion I missed the box, the pellet never passed through the plywood. I would guess that a wooden or plastic fence might be sufficient to stop a .177 from 10 yards but you best test it first!
You had said that some folks complained about the noise from your 397 but was it the neighbors or your family?
As you said yourself, all it takes is one person to put an end to your outdoor shooting. I didn't expect you would go up to a neighbor and ask them if they minded you shooting in the back yard but to try and engage them in a conversation on firearms and find out how they feel about them. Don't tell them you're already using the backyard as a shooting range right up front!
Robert from Arcade's idea sounds pretty feasible and for a quieter air rifle and inexpensive plinker, consider that Air Venturi Bronco.
Fred PRoNJ
Nate, this has worked for me, perhaps it would for you.
Years ago I too had a large back yard that I could shoot in, and as with you I was concerned about my neighbours.
I took a different route. I went to each of my neighbours on both side of my home and invited them for a barbecue and 'fun shoot'.
I explained pellet rifles…showed them how, though they could be dangerous if handled improperly, with proper use they were extremely safe compared to firearms.
They had a ball shooting at the water filled balloons and such that I had set up.
We had a chat afterwords and they had no problem with my hobby. One of them made the request (reasonable in my opinion) that if I could here there children outside that I would let them know that I was shooting and to keep clear of the far end of the property (not really an issue, but doing so meant I never had problems with either set of neighbours).
In fact one of the neighbours asked my advice a couple of weeks later about what was a good air rifle for him to purchase.
You could also shoot from inside a structure ,like a garden shed or maybe one of those screened tent like patio enclosures. I like to shoot from inside our gazebo and it helps with the noise, and provides some privacy.I feel that I don't draw as much attention to my shooting, than I would if I was out in the open. Plus I can shoot in the rain and keep out of the sun. Robert
Anybody have any opinions about all this "WikiLeaks" hitting the news? I know the weekend just ended, but do we have to wait for the weekend to have opinions.
"… could become as important a journalistic tool
as the Freedom of Information Act."
— Time Magazine
Yes. I have an opinion.
I think it is an example of irresponsible journalism that needlessly endangers lives. If these leaks are really of secret documents, it is a security breach and a serious crime.
I agree with you wholeheartedly! I was just wondering if everyone was hearing about this b/s! My father, my brother and I all retired from different branches of service. We all worked in the intelligence field and have never discussed any between us, it was just understood that was off topic. I don't know who these "journalist" are but I hate to think that some of our military may have given them this information. I'm sorry if you thought I felt otherwise.
No, I didn't think you approved either. I am an officer in the Coast Guard Auxiliary, and earlier this year completed a course in how to handle this stuff.
It is serious business, and mishandling or leaking carries very serious penalties.
I was appalled to see this happen. I hope the leaker is identified and prosecuted.
I believe this to be an act of treason during a time of war. And presently we are at war against terrorism. We can only hope this individual is found and prosecuted accordingly.
My 2 cents.

MARYDEL, Del. (AP) - Utilities are reporting fewer than 100 customers in Delaware still without power a morning after a storm's damaging winds damaged dozens of homes and injured two people. Delaware Electric Cooperative is reporting about 90 customers in the dark on Friday morning. DEC spokesman Jeremy Tucker says that's down from about 2,500 affected customers at the peak Thursday. Tucker says the remaining outages are in the areas hardest hit by the storm, but officials hope to restore power Friday. He says storms like Thursday's are rare in the area and the damage is the worst they've seen in a while. Delmarva Power is reporting a handful of outages in New Castle County early Friday. Spokesman Nick Morici says the utility had about 700 outages in Delaware and Maryland at the peak.

LG, Panasonic, Samsung and more have found themselves in hot water over cathode ray tube price fixing for TVs and monitors.
With a new type of battery cathode, Envia says its lithium ion batteries can extend the range of electric vehicles and lower the costs. Investor GM is already testing them.
The glossy orange 14-inch set doesn't just look it belongs in a living room on "That '70s Show"; it uses trusty old cathode ray tube technology.
Vu1 has another idea for efficient lighting: Based on cathode ray technology, its UL-certified lightbulbs put out similar light to incandescents but use less energy and don't contain mercury.
Power Japan Plus announced its dual carbon battery technology, which promises longer-lasting and less expensive batteries for electric cars.
European regulators impose massive penalties on a series of TV and display makers for "cartel" activity affecting now-outmoded CRT products.
In a complicated swapping of a stake in a joint venture with convertible preferred shares, Samsung plans to acquire a piece of Corning.
A lithium ion micro-battery out of the University of Illinois is just millimeters in size, can jump-start a car battery, and recharges in less than a second. It's not ready for market just yet, though.
Huge launches are expected from Samsung, Sony and others as the German show sets the tech agenda for the rest of the year.

Wilson Carriere pleaded no contest in open court this week to indecent behavior charges, but he won't be serving any jail time. Did the prosecution go far enough? The father of one of his victims says Wilson Carriere got off too easy.
Wilson Carriere was originally charged with one count of aggravated incest and three counts of molestation of a juvenile.
One of the victims was the daughter of a man who doesn't want to be identified and one of Carriere's relatives.
This week, Carriere admitted to fondling children but under the terms of a last minute plea bargain agreement, the molestation charges were dismissed and Carriere was allowed to plead guilty to a lesser charge of two counts of indecent behavior with a juvenile.
Under the terms of that agreement, Carriere was given a suspended sentence and released to serve two years of home incarceration.
The father of one of Carriere's victims believes prosecutors let Carriere off the hook.
Assistant District Attorney Lay Prather said nothing could be further from the truth. According to Prather, the state was fighting an uphill battle.
With no physical evidence and only the word of a few very young children, Prather says he did the best he could.
Under the terms of the plea agreement, Carriere must register as a sex offender.
In addition, Carriere is not allowed to have any contact with children under the age of 16.
If Carriere fails to comply, he will be forced to serve a ten-year sentence in a state prison.

With the Oscar nominations just a week away, film fans are already speculating over who the leading contenders will be. The latter half of 2012 was filled with serious candidates, and among them is the recently released "Les Misérables."
Yes, I know, between TV spots and billboards, it's been nearly impossible to escape, and it's a phenomenon that falls into that good ol' "love/hate" category.
The musical genre as a whole has a very precarious relationship with the box office, but it seems that "Les Miz" has managed to keep its balance, despite a rather average encounter with critics (Rotten Tomatoes listed it at a 72 percent).
With a cast built primarily upon easily recognizable names, both those known for their vocal prowess (Wolver ... I mean, Hugh Jackman, for example), and those whose presence may have been a bit more surprising (such as Russell Crowe), the credibility of the film's talent is nothing to question.
However, the most anticipated aspect of it was the manner of filming. All of the musical numbers were done "live," with no previously recorded tracks added to the action, not unlike a stage performance.
This was the biggest deal about the whole bit, but it really isn't as groundbreaking as it seems. Don't get me wrong: I'd prefer it to the over-edited, sketchily matched tracks seen in the past. Joel Schumacher's "Phantom of the Opera" (2004) comes to mind, and I can't even hold it anywhere to the same caliber as the Broadway performance, which I recently saw.
I'm sure anyone who had the opportunity to see "Les Misérables" onstage had the same fears about this film, and I can assure them the product is as genuine and real as it gets. The live singing certainly added an aspect to it that many musical movies miss, but I was more concerned with what was going on around it.
"Les Misérables" is a true musical, with about five minutes of actual spoken dialogue in the whole thing. That being said, this is where the love/hate thing comes into play. If you aren't into a story being conveyed to you entirely through song, you won't enjoy this. But if that's something you either enjoy or can at least get past, you will love every second.
"Les Miz" has something for everyone. The dramatic life story of Jean Valjean (Jackman) and Inspector Javert's (Crowe) lifelong pursuit of him. The tragedy of Fantine (Anne Hathaway). The comedy of the Thernadiers (Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen) and the love triangle involving Cosette, Marius and Eponine (Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne and Samantha Barks).
Not to mention that you will cry profusely at least once.
Fair warning.
Even with that, all in all, "Les Misérables" honors exactly what Victor Hugo intended with his original novel: a portrayal of the hope and invincibility that is the human spirit.

LONDON, June 12- Iran, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Nigeria and now Iraq: the crude oil market has weathered a long list of actual and threatened supply shocks with remarkable calm.

Citizens of Humanity
Lindsay Lohan Shops At Singer22
Lindsay Lohan was seen doing some shopping at Singer22 on the 31st March 2011. She looked like she was enjoying her shopping trip as she browsed the denim and tees. Lindsay picked up a pair of Citizens of Humanity Angie jeans in Revival Light wash. I hope we will see her in those soon!
I think Lindsay is definitely working on cleaning up her act now, I'm pleased about that because she was on such a self destruct route, it seemed like nobody could get through to her. I want to see her happy again and rocking all the denim! You can shop all the designer denim at Singer22.com.

Rachel Bilson in Citizens of Humanity
Rachel Bilson was spotted making her way to catch another flight out of Los Angeles, California. Rachel seems to be picking up frequent flyer miles. She has been flying non-stop lately. I wonder where she is headed off to this time.
She wore her Citizens of Humanity Jeans in Star again. It seems like Rachel has her jeans on rotation. We would spot her in Paige and she would wear them for a few days straight, then she would either switch off to Citizens, AG Jeans or her Current/Elliott leggings. Which of Rachel's jeans are your favorites? You can click here to purchase these jeans at ShopBop for $169.
Rachel Bilson in Citizens of Humanity
Rachel Bilson was spotted on the set of her Magnum Ice Cream commercial in Paris, France. I find this to be a really random gig for Rachel, the main reason being that it is an ice cream commercial. But hey…if Karl Lagerfeld wants you in one of his films/commercials. Who would say "no?" So that may be one of the reasons why Rachel took the job. Plus there is probably the endless list of Chanel stuff that Rachel probably gets to pull for the shoot.
Rachel was spotted awaiting her ride in a pair of Citizens of Humanity Slick Skinny jeans in Star. We haven't spotted anyone in these in a while. They are super soft and a really great pair of jeans overall. Rachel paired the jeans with a really great Burberry leather jacket. I love the detail on it, it is amazing. You can click here to purchase these jeans at ShopBop for $165.
Scarlett Johansson in Citizens of Humanity
Scarlett Johansson was seen attending the Pieces of Heaven art auction at Art of Elysium in Las Vegas. Scarlett served as the host of the charity event, which was designed to raise money for children who are battling serious medical conditions. You can learn more about the organization on their website at Artofelysium.org.
For her hosting duties, Scarlett wore a pair of Citizens of Humanity skinny jeans, a cardigan and boots. Scarlett has worn these Citizens skinny jeans before, you can see how she styled them here. You can buy Citizens of Humanity jeans at Singer22.com.

Finding God in the Garden: Backyard Reflections on Life, Love, and Compostby Balfour Brickner
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Grieving after the death of a beloved daughter, Rabbi Balfour Brickner struggled with his faith while preparing a flowerbed. One day the rabbi found himself writing down the thoughts that came to him as he turned the soil, and observing nature's abundant examples of order and renewal, miracles and beauty, Rabbi Brickner found his faith returning like a garden in spring.
Using the garden as a sanctuary and springboard, Rabbi Brickner considers the lessons to be learned from the tasks of caring for the land, the wonder of a garden in full bloom, and the connections between Biblical teachings and botanical life. Finding God in the Garden is a passionate, witty, and provocative celebration of mature religious faith derived through nature, reason, and the joys of everyday work.
The rabbi of the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue relates his gardening experiences, which helped him overcome the death of his daughter.
About the Author
Rabbi Balfour Brickner is a well-known rabbi associated with the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue, and a dedicated political and social activist. He lives in New York City and tends to his garden in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

Schuylerville's Saratoga National Cemetery recognized the bravery and sacrifice made by veterans on Sunday. Our Brooke Selby brings us the sights and sounds that made this ceremony particularly special.
SCHUYLERVILLE, N.Y. -- In honor of Veterans Day, Saratoga National Cemetery paid tribute to military members everywhere.
"Saratoga National is a very special place," said Maj. General Verle L. Johnston Jr. of the New York Air National Guard.
Verle was the keynote speaker at the event, but several other speakers took to the podium to express their gratitude for service members.
"Veterans are heros and they deserve respect," said one young speaker.
"I've flown missions with them all over the world to the South Pole, Greenland, Europe, the Pacific and it's just very intense to come to Saratoga National Cemetery where I have friends here," said Johnston.
Michael Bumiglia added, "They do something that everyone calls serving, and to serve is to render assistance to, and they've rendered that assistance to our country, they give us the right to practice our religion of choice, elect officials of our choice and that's a privilege not many people around the world have."
Veterans at the event conveyed one simple message: take time out of your day to just say thank you.

About the AuthorTerry Ogden
togden Shaver Lake California USA
I have been working with digital media for about 25 years and have had PhotoShop since 1993. I took up, what I call, obsessive/compulsive photography, about a year ago. I use a Nikon D90 with three lenses, an 18-200 Zoom, a 50 mm prime, and a 70-300 zoom. I carry my camera with me wherever I go and beat myself up if I miss a shot. I commute 2 1/2 hours everyday; and, sometimes it takes longer because of a shot stop to take. Fortunately my commute takes from about 5000' in the Sierra Nevada to the San Joaquin Valley floor everyday. I am proficient in InDesign so the book making process was painless. Please check out my Yosemite book, my first attempt.
