There�s something pleasantly old-school about this car, and this is a bit odd since it�s a crispy-new, redesigned (although familiar) model from a maker known for engineering brilliance�that is, Honda. No, we don�t have to crank the engine by hand (a pushbutton does that), but there is a third pedal under the dash and the only switches on the deck around the gearshift lever are for the seat heaters. There are no knobs or buttons labeled �Normal,� ��Sport� or �Sport+,� or even �Snow�; there�s no monkeying with the suspension, steering or throttle, nor is there an auxiliary electric motor to call upon. Just push in the clutch, engage first or reverse in the 6-speed gearbox�by hand�and drive off. Want to go faster? Push harder on the pedal on the right.
Oh, my�that�s a 278-horsepower V-6 underfoot, which explains the squealing and tire smoke from, unfortunately, the front wheels. (We�ll get back to this.)
Since fewer than 10 percent of new cars sold in America now have clutch pedals, Honda may have put one on this Accord Coupe just for us motojournalists, who tend to think that car control comes before, oh, answering the phone. Or Honda may be showing off a bit, as if to say, �Yeah, it�s an Accord�but lookit how sporty it is!�
That the Coupe is such a close cousin to a sports car tells us how capable Honda�s popular Accord family sedan is to begin with. Just lose the sedan�s back doors, whack two inches out of its length and steepen the roof line, and we get a car that not only looks athletic, but also can tear up pavement. (It dropped a couple hundred pounds in the surgery too.) Yet even as an agile two-door fastback, the Accord still has usable back seats and a decent trunk. Also an �Econ� mode, which most Coupe owners likely will ignore till they�re on the last teaspoon of fuel en route to a distant gas station.
Only about 10 percent of Accord buyers take the Coupe, but my guess is that a fair number of them opt for the third pedal too. Both the clutch and the gearbox feel eager and nicely mechanical; driving this car makes us think we�re accomplishing something. (Accords are made in Ohio, but the manual transmission is shipped in from Japan.) You say you don�t want a clutch? A 6-speed automatic is available too, for the same price, and it bumps the V-6 Coupe�s MPG rating from 18/28 city/highway to 21/32.
There�s nothing at all old-school about the rest of the Accord Coupe. It has all the latest active and passive safety systems that the feds demand�and this optioned-up, $33,000 EX-L V-6 has a few extra, including lane-departure and front-collision alerts, an adjustable rear-view camera and Honda�s clever LaneWatch: Signal for a right turn and the entire starboard side of the car plus the lane you�re about to veer into appears on the dashboard screen.
Our car also came with a long list of creature comforts as well as digital features (satnav, Bluetooth, Pandora, SMS, USB and AM/FM/XM/CD/MP3), many of them feeding into an acronym: i-MID, Honda�s Intelligent Multi-Information Display, with not one but two computer screens. Blessedly, this is simpler than it sounds; I could dope out all the functions quickly and without resorting to the owner�s manual or voice commands. (Talking to a car makes me feel like an idiot.)
A 4-cylinder, 185-horsepower Accord Coupe starts at about $24,000; with less weight up front, it may be slightly more nimble than the V-6. However, this gets us back to the �unfortunately� comment above: Like the Monday-through-Friday Accord sedan, Accord Coupes too are led around by their front wheels. Honda has done a good job of engineering away torque steer, but 278 ponies is a lot; whip them hard enough, and torque steer and understeer do show up.
If Honda could somehow turn this car around and put the driven wheels at the back, the Accord Coupe would instantly graduate from sporty car to sports car.

Restaurant Vendôme in the Grand Hotel at Bensberg Palace, where Joachim Wissler presents his very personal interpretation of avant-garde cuisine, is a place of pilgrimage for gourmets from all over the world.
In the last few years, Joachim Wissler has worked extremely hard to gradually update and stamp his individuality on his cuisine. His trademarks are incredible precision and the exploitation of every contemporary technique, though these are never the end in themselves. Wissler offers a refreshingly different cuisine that is full of ingenious ideas, brims with brilliant flavour combinations and covers the full spectrum of temperatures and textures. Each dish has its own little story to tell, often recalling memories of traditional tastes but placing them, not without irony, in a completely new context. The results are culinary sculptures that look amazing and taste phenomenal. In his journeys of discovery, Joachim Wissler brings great imagination and creativity to the table, but every new season brings a fresh start and he never ceases to amaze.
In his wild salmon with sweet vernal grass butter and field caviar , the sensational quality and the cooking of the salmon are on the same elevated plane as the interplay between the slightly fatty salmon and the herbal-grassy butter jus. Working with his pâtissier Anne Kamp, Wissler breaks new ground with his desserts too. His grainfield brings together a light oat milk cream, buckwheat ice cream, a microwave corn biscuit, pickled Jerusalem artichoke, barley tea jelly with hazelnuts, puffed wheat and cornflower – this is a thrilling, associative dégustation which toys with the muesli theme whilst evoking a walk through a grainfield.

I've adopted Tottenham Hotspur- wanted to follow a good team, I'm already born into rooting for enough shitty teams, with a familiar American face (Bay Village's own, Brad Friedel), and not too trendy/bandgwagony like Man U or Arsenel or rooting for a team owned by absentee NFL owners.

At this pint in time, it would be. Tremendous. Some actual incentive to get your shit straight. Even the Swanseas, etc make a load of money by being up. Minor league opertion? Minor league income.2- The FA Cup. Case Western playing Ohio State in a tournament, in Case's gym and the coaches, players from Ohio State caring about the game and the outcome. 3- The Champion's League. I know CONCACAF has the equivalent, but is it really? No. I can't watch shitty soccer and I think MLS and CONCACAF are shitty, 2nd rate soccer. I'll go to a Crew game with the little one and have a good time but MLS and college soccer, etc just don't interest me. I got interested because of the skill and ability. Take that away and I go away. Another certainty that I have learned while watching club soccer. The US will never win the World Cup in my life time and I am almost ready to say my kid's lifetimeIt'd likely take a 'Miracle on Ice' type run and match. And having seen that as a 14 yr old, I can't say anything is impossible..

She's actually excited about it. Always wanted to check it out, now I have an excuse. At the very least I could show her where she will be going to college in 11 years.

Classy. My fav is the fat one in the line. Oh, girl, don't you know? The whole scene of utterly confused and misguided female "empowerment". Preach on sister Ke$ha. Self-esteem issues much? Bunhch a wanna be hoes who get upset when called hoes as a result of their behaviors.You have your meat head jocks surveying the landscape like caveman, replete with mister wizard and his flashlight.$5 will get you $ 10 that Carlos, like he's probably done 1,000 times before, often successfully, walks up with a charming opening line to the hot one in the tiny white shorts and says, "Hey, baby, you want to come with us and pull train for the Buckeyes? You know you wanna."And the one up there dancing like a hoe, ass shaking to a group of entitled super X chromosone men, gets all upset that she's treated like a hoe and "disrespected" like as if she's sitting on a park bench having lunch innocently. "I was just dancing with a group of girls and and and HE TALKED TO ME!....."And so she tries to slap Carlos. Instead of taking the slap and laughing at her tipsy ass he swats back. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.The whole episode, of course, was about as violent as two kittens pawing each other in passing on the way to separate yarn balls. But this is 2013 after all. INCIDENT! ESPN! URBAN IS THIS ANOTHER AARON HERNANDEZ?!?Meat markets are for morons.Young women who act like that in meat markets and then holla empowerment and feign outrage are delusional. Young men who just stand there and don't even fake trying to make an effort before asking for "you're just a piece of meat with a gash" entitled-sex preceded by "Do you know who I am?" are dooshbags.I seriously doubt Carlos walked up and said , "excuse me Miss, would you care to dance?" Or even just offered to buy her a drink, given the reaction.Then you got slim shady walking up a few minutes after to try to defend her honor. Thank God that didn't escalate into a cluster fuck of AI proportions.They're all a bunch of vapid sheep and part of a culture.... that I help create from being a football fan. F me. Football players being a-hole football players and football groupies who probably went there knowing the "club's" rep for having Buckeyes there... all of them. They deserve each other.But the incident? Nothing I haven't seen a hundred times without a much greater reaction.... before I turned about 19 and started going to real bars.To the extent Urbs can plant the seed to one of the young men he's charged with helping develop as an adult that he ought change his thinking so he can grow up some part from just being a "football" issue? I applaud him tilting at that windmill.

My philosophy is that punishing someone for something you cannot prove is almost always a worse outcome than whatever you're punishing the person for in the first place.I can understand if Meyer wants to give him laps or windsprints, or whatever practice field punishments he has at his disposal. But I really do think that taking games away from Hyde over this, absent some problems Hyde has that we don't know about, seems to me to be a huge overreaction.I saw two kids being dumb. No victims here. If there were no victims, than I can't see the need for what is basically the harshest kind of punishment Meyer can met out.

I get this take. I really do.This is political. Carlos is paying for what Aaron hernandez did, Tatoo-gate, and Storm Klein as much or more as what he did.

Getting Apps to Users, and Learning to Love BYOD
Sometimes, those in charge of delivering enterprise applications can feel steamrolled by trends, from mobility and BYOD programs to hybrid clouds incorporating SaaS. With technological innovation happening so fast, it's easy fall behind the eight ball.
There is help. Almost 500 business technology professionals responded to our InformationWeek 2012 Alternative Application Delivery Survey, weighing in on how they support sometimes-complex application loads using creative architectural strategies. For 45%, technologies like virtual desktop infrastructure or application streaming are key to fielding mission-critical applications. But questions remain. If VDI is the way to go, should it be hosted locally or as a service? What are the security implications of divorcing sessions from internal servers? Is Microsoft still the only game in town?
We'll explore these areas and more. (R4550612)
Survey Name InformationWeek 2012 Alternative Application Delivery Survey
Survey Date February 2012
Region North America
Number of Respondents 483
Purpose To examine alternative application architecture strategies in the enterprise.

10 Key Steps to Success In Data Loss Prevention
DLP, or data loss prevention, can be a monster to manage, especially on a large scale. Even for smaller organizations, it's important to tread carefully and to break the project up into manageable chunks.
Deploying DLP isn't like deploying a security incident and event management system or a network management system, where you can just add hosts or log sources and get going. With DLP, you need to strategically position assets, carefully select and test the modules you deploy, and really take the time to learn how to manage the system.
You can, of course, accelerate this process with the use of a good business partner, but, even in that case, you will want to move slowly because of the business impact that a full-scale DLP deployment will have on the organization. What you find with the DLP system will likely make waves and force changes. To increase the chances that your deployment will be successful, it's critical to move your implementation along carefully and in close coordination with the business. (S6740313)

Travel Insurance You Can Actually Use
By Eric Reed
NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- There are two things people generally mean when they talk about travel insurance.
The first, otherwise known as trip insurance, covers airfare in case you have to cancel your flight; most airlines offer it with most tickets. In my experience, it's usually a rip off, as the policies come with so many exceptions and escape clauses as to be generally worthless. They're great if you break your leg, but not so much if your boss decides you have to work this weekend.
Ask yourself which happens more often.
The second is medical insurance, which is especially important since many American policies stop at the water's edge. Some kind of medical coverage is a must, but unfortunately finding medical coverage for an overseas trip involves a few more moving pieces than usual. Figuring out health insurance is hard enough when it's in your own back yard. Trying to predict what you'll need in India makes life a whole lot harder.
This is what interests me about the self-styled "lifestyle insurance company" Protect Your Bubble. Unlike most insurance companies that focus on large, single issues such as health, homes or automobiles, Protect Your Bubble covers the investments people make in everything else including, of particular interest here, travel.
"We have this philosophy," company president Stephen Ebbett told MainStreet, "that everything sort of sits in this fragile bubble, and bubbles by their nature can be burst. We can get ill, we can lose things, damage can happen to our possessions, and when that happens, our bubbles are burst and the emotional pain and the financial distress can be severe. Our philosophy is that we're here to protect your bubble."
A lofty goal, but how well does it work?
The first, and probably best, aspect I noticed about Protect Your Bubble is how it simplifies the process of travel planning. One package covers you for airfare, medical and property losses, where ordinarily you'd have to find coverage for each independently, if at all. According to Ebbett, prices start as low as $14, although when I researched a theoretical $2,000 trip to Asia, my quote started at $68 per month for the most basic package, $103 for all the bells and whistles.

Skip to comments.Tourist, 24, brutally beaten with tire irons and bats in New York City neighborhood
Posted on 01/16/2013 4:38:00 PM PST by ConservativeStatement
click here to read article
So bloomie.. Hows that gun ban working for ya? Curbing any violence?
But - but - but, NYC is FREE of violence, and there's no need to defend yourself!
It'll be a cold day in hell before I spend another minute in that hellhole.
Those evil Amish, no doubt. Or maybe Morman's...they are quite the gang.
Too bad the tourists weren't armed — seriously. Only the nannies get that kind of security.
Go cut me a long switch...
... That'll learn 'em
"A tourist from Massachusetts ....."
Mayor Bloomberg should be so proud "Hey look, no guns."
The look white to me. It's possible they are Muslim, but they definitely aren't black.
At least most of them aren't, judging from the video.
Bloomberg's mission 'to reduce gun violence' accomplished.
If the MA man fought back the gang of seven in self defense with a proper firearm, it won't even make the news.
The challenge for legislators is where to draw the line.
Where in all this madness does the sane man draw the law against the insane man.
I say the time is nigh to ban New York City.
Walmart and Autozone announced they will not be restocking baseball bats and tire irons pending legislative discussions.
A Massachusetts tourist in NYC is like being on a latrine tour.
If the victim is a registered Democrat my concerns for his recovery stop cold...........
Hello conservatives trapped behind enemy lines.
This is a big hint to get you and your families out of commie red states and to Patriot blue states.
At this point, conservatives do not have the organization to come rescue you if you get in trouble.
The country is dividing and you're on the wrong side of that divide. Pack your bags, love your families and get out while you can.
Nanny Bloomers and the mobster in the Governor's mansion should be proud.
This is concrete proof that gun violence in NY City has been drastically reduced.
WalMart sells guns and ammo, and baseball bats, why use them?
My memory of Andover is that it is a well-to-do community. On Wikipedia, "According to a 2008 estimate,[15] the median income for a household in the town was $114,319, and the median income for a family was $138,556."
Well we know A-Rod wasn't involved; he can't hit anything after August.
THIS is why you need a high cap magazine.
You owe me a keyboard.
Time to ban tire irons and ball bats.
bet my house the attackers were black.
The version I heard was "The only thing he hit in the playoffs was the groupie fan."
Of course not. That's just crazy talk. You probably hate puppies too...
Better speech and debate skill would clearly diffused the situation.
Do you want me to FReepmail my address so you can mail me the keys and title?
"bet my house the attackers were black."
Probably not in The Village; the deviants there wouldn't allow seven blacks in their neighborhood together. It is a toilet, but a white/Asian toilet more than a black one.
FWIW, this is from the article:
"Hatem Farsakh, 24, is charged with gang assault, assault and attempted murder. Police also arrested Sherif Rizk, 22, also of Brooklyn, in connection with the case."
I left for PA 25yrs ago, after working (lived in NJ) in Midtown for 17yrs; no way in hell I'd ever go back, either.
Behind enemy lines, we know to stay out of the urban welfare reservations. I'm barely 10 miles from NYC, and haven't been there in over 10 years. An increasing trend (a problem, from the eyes of NYC's tourism industry) is that an increasing number of young people in northern NJ have never been to NYC (and don't intend to visit). Part of that is caused by the fact that the area nearest the city has become a Hispanic colony (and whites have fled west); another side is that nobody here believes it when you tell them New York City (or Newark NJ) is safe. Their crimes are reported on our local news; we know better.
I love stories like this; reading between the lines I'm guessing the tourist is a liberal (at least he was; now he's been mugged, so that makes him a conservative).
"5:AM Sunday morning"
Young, restless, out half the night partying and drinking.
Now, you might think I am speaking like someone who blames the rape victim because she had dressed like a hooker.
I'm not really.
And the guy did not deserve what happened to him, and his assailants deserve the book thrown at them.
That said,
I lived in Manhattan in my 20s; we did the late-night Saturday night scene, on occasions. We also knew the things - getting drunk, certain locations, certain kinds of people and certain kinds of situations - to avoid. It was not very long before we recommended to our younger friends and family members that getting together socially with a gang of friends in your own apartments was as rewarding and a whole lot less risky than mingling with the drunkin hordes out for a big night in town. And usually if someone did get drunk at our place, a cab was called to come pick them up, or they had to stay at the hosts apartment until they slept it off; we never sent a friend drunk out into the streets.
I know the location of the event in the article. It's on 14th Street between 1st and 2nd Avenue - Artichoke Pizza. A niece lives not too far from there.
That pizza place has done a great job at marketing itself, but I've had their pizza and I'm no fan.
About two blocks north of there on 1st Avenue is Beth Israel hospital. I hope that young man was taken there and not transported some distance to another hospital.
In places like Texas, violent criminals get shot by onlookers.
One method is a vicious cycle, the other is short and effective.
I haven't been to the city in years, but blacks were only allowed there as individuals to sell drugs (to the NYU students); they didn't have the right to assemble in that part of the city.
The last names indicate they may well be Asians; no shortage of them there.
My questions is, why didn't the onlooker come to help the tourist? What a pathetic human being.
Hatem Farsakh, 24, is charged with gang assault, assault and attempted murder.
Police also arrested Sherif Rizk, 22, also of Brooklyn, in connection with the case.
Ny Daily News reports the location as Macdougal Street, West Village not East. There is another Artichoke location there.
Gonna be a lot of flat tires around NYC ;) Not sure how the Yankee's will be able to play home games.. (hey wait.. maybe we should look in to this!)
Law of unintended consequences.. Just like banning the guns.
Did I also hear that NY (state?) just limited cops to 7 rounds by a poorly written law?
If he was wearing Red Sox clothing it would be ruled justifiable.
Hmmmm.. a vigilante that was a good shot could have killed all seven of them..
The news from that event could encourage a whole city..
NYC needs to be Charles Bronsonized... and Detriot, Chicago, San Fransicko and L.A. not to speak of Berkley, Ca, Madison, Wis, and Dallas.. O.K. and Boston as well..
Heck it would be blamed on drive by gang activity..
The vigilante would have serious cover..
"My questions is, why didnt the onlooker come to help the tourist? What a pathetic human being."
Things have only gotten worse since the famous Kitty Genovese slaying 5 decades ago (when NYers listened to a woman screaming for help and did nothing); now if they intervened and the perps were the wrong color or a protected class the Good Samaritan could be prosecuted (I'm not kidding).
Will New York outlaw tire irons?
"And the guy did not deserve what happened to him, and his assailants deserve the book thrown at them."
A crime is a crime, and the victim didn't deserve it, but it never ceases to shock me how naive people can be. These young people who've had it drilled into their heads that their parents were wrong on everything are rapidly finding out how right their parents often were.
In my younger days, if we went to the village, there were at least eight of us (all male); we treated the place with the caution it merited. Many of us had parents who'd fled NYC 10 -15 years before, and we knew why.
5 kids a day die from abuse , that is more from guns where is the outrage?
agree, all conservatives now need to think about getting the hell out of these socialist states.
got my wife out of there years ago and she said it was the best thing she ever did, though any gun owner ,who voted Dem can stay up there as we don;t want them and their dumb voting ways

The Digital Skeptic: Facebook Has Many Mouths to Feed in Global Market
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- It's never easy getting paid. And in this grinding global mobile economy, it's especially not easy for Facebook (FB) to get paid.
This year, the social media giant announced it would offer other countries, including India, the ability to pay to promote a post. Already well-known to American users, pay-to-promote, at least when I tried it, is where Facebookers cough up a couple of bucks -- in my case, $8 -- to get more folks to see one's Facebook stuff.
Life-changing it was not, but at least I paid for something on Facebook. And investors are betting that between these and other paying services some real money will really flow Mark Zuckerberg's way. Overseas markets such as India look particularly lucrative. There are 60 million some-odd Facebookers in India, according to SocialBakers, a Czech Republic-based social media search measurement firm, and these users live in a country with $1.8 trillion in GDP for 2011 that should grow in the 7% range this year, according to the World Bank.
It all seems so rosy, but of course it's the digital age. So it's not. Break down the nitty-gritty of Facebook offering -- and getting payment for -- a service in an emerging economy such as India's and it gets very clear very fast that Mr. Zuckerberg will have a lot of hungry mouths to feed before he ever sees a dime.
It's crowded in here
At first blush, how Facebook does business in India is how it does business here in the U.S. Harish Krishnan, who blogs about social media for BlogAdda, one of India's largest blogger communities, and who uses Facebook heavily to market and communicate from Mumbai, explained via email to me how Facebook's paid service works in his home country.
Users are prompted -- just like they are in the U.S. -- with an offer to promote a post for a fee. To explain, he included a screenshot of what an average Indian Facebook user, in this case Ravi Sethia, faced when trying to pay to promote a post on India's Facebook service back in September.
What happens, Krishnan told me, is that as services such as Facebook try to charge fees, something very un-American happens: All sorts of third parties flock in seeking a cut of the action.
"A lot of mobile carriers have included
You can see Krishnan's point right there at the bottom of the screenshot he sent me ; users can either pay 99 rupees to promote a post if that cost is baked into a users' mobile phone charges; or 30 cents -- that's just 16 rupees -- if they use PayPal, a credit card or other service such as Western Union (WU) to pay Facebook.

I made a pumpkin ale back in November, and thanks to my laziness this winter I bottled in January.
I've never made a pumpkin ale before, and so I bought a kit from Beer, and Wine Hobby in Woburn. Great price, and they were very helpful. I can't say enough positive things about them. So, how did the beer come out?
First, it pours a nice orange/brown color. The head is not as foamy as I had hoped it would be, and fades very quickly. The taste is not what I expected. It is not as spicy as I like, and runs on the sweet side. I couldn't taste any hops, and there is no bitterness at all. Its also a very forgettable beer, and one of the few beers I've made that I'm disappointed in how it came out.I have no one to blame but myself for this though. I know letting it sit for far too long probably did a horrible job on it. I think it ended up being 6 weeks in the primary, and 6 weeks in the secondary fermentor.The good thing is that I bought two kits, so I can make it again. The next time I'll let it sit in the primary for about 10 days, and then transfer it to the secondary, and let it sit only 7 days and then bottle. That should make a difference in how it comes out, or at least I hope so.

Spicy Travels 4 - Barracuda Adventure
C.J. Gustafson, Freelance Writer and Photographer
I learned to snorkel on my first trip to Cozumel. I'd always loved the water and was anxious to experience snorkeling for myself. It took about fifteen minutes before I got the hang of it. My goggles kept fogging up and my breathing tube leaked so bad I had to empty it every three or four minutes. But it didn't matter. I was hooked. Under the water, you are in a different world - one where there is much less noise and a sparkling, swaying beauty that I find both calming and exciting at the same time. Even without the fish, I would love being under the surface. There's nothing like it.
That first time, I snorkeled so long I sunburned my forehead badly and it became all one big blister. (I had to put a pillowcase over my head like a bandana for the rest of the vacation.) And every time I've come to Cozumel since, I've spent a good portion of my time snorkeling. I have treasured memories from each time in the water - the time I saw over 20 starfish in one area, or when I found myself in the middle of a school of about 500 black and yellow striped sergeant majors. But the time I was snorkeling alone out in front of the Iberostar resort stands out as one of the most exciting.
I had heard several people say there were large schools of fish under the pier and I thought I would see if I could get some good photos. So I put on my mask and waded into the water. True to its name, the Iberostar has many starfish right out in front of its beach, and I was scanning the bottom and photographing as I made my way to the pier. Suddenly I saw a large shadow move across the ocean floor and I looked over expecting to see another snorkeler swimming alongside. Instead I saw a shiny silver barracuda about 4 feet long with huge teeth in his pouty jaw.
Startled, I jerked away and gasped, managing to suck in a full mouthful of saltwater. Kicking and coughing, I stuck my head above water, situated myself, and quickly went back under to see if the fish was still there.
Despite my thrashing about, the big 'cuda was less than 3 feet away, looking at me as if trying to figure out what all the commotion was about. In my haste and nervousness, I fumbled with my camera trying to line up a shot. But before I could ready myself, the stunning fish swam off past the buoys, leaving only blue ocean in my viewfinder.
Still excited, I poked my head above water looking from left to right to see if anyone else had seen the monster. There were no other snorkelers in the area and I hung my head, thinking nobody was going to believe me. It is one thing to see an amazing creature in the ocean, but it is even more fun to share that with someone else. If only I had gotten a photo. Then I heard a chuckle from above and looked up to see a Mexican man standing on the pier.
"Pescado grande, eh?" he said, holding his arms wide.
"Pescado mucho grande," I replied clutching my heart and laughing with the man. "Wow!" I added before swimming off to look for the little fish under the pier.

This is the live action skeet game that challenges shooters to hit three flying targets using a harmless infrared gun. Only available from Hammacher Schlemmer, targets are ejected from the "trap" at pre-determined intervals—one every two to one every ten seconds—reaching a height of 3' that allows for indoor use on a table top. When hit by the gun's infrared beam, the plastic targets "break" apart into two pieces to reward an accurate shot. Shorter intervals require faster "reloading" by pumping the gun, which responds with a realistic loading sound between each shot. Targets are snapped back together for immediate replay. Trap requires four C batteries; gun requires three AAA batteries. Ages 10 and up. Trap 14 1/2" L x 12" W x 11 1/2" H. (4 1/2 lbs.)

Fun game but with small inconveniences.
By Para Pappaw
from Columbia City, IN.
Product often malfunctions after first launch and does not launch skeet as high as advertised. Product needs a place to store skeet when not in use. If skeet is stored in launching position the launching spring will weaken rather quickly. I'd recommend having the same type of screw for the gun and launcher to ease the installation of batteries.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Fun gift
By Boy mom
from Austin Tx
Great, fun gift. We bought for a 9 and 13 year old and it was a hit with both.No real set up involved. Appropriate for indoor and outdoor use. We have only had it for a few days but so far it has endured hours of use and continues to function well.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fun, safe shooting game
By Annie Oakley
from Ft Worth, TX
Purchased as an adult gift. We have had loads of fun with it. I was worried about things flying around inside the house, but no problems. It doesn't toss the targets wildly, so things stay reasonably contained. You don't need too large a space. Plus, it seems sturdy.

skeet shooter OK, not great
By Streets
from cincinnati
OK for kids. Fun for indoor use. You have to be close to get skeet to come apart. Not sure how long the springs that launch skeet will last. Skeets go up about 4 feet in air. I would recommend, but with medium expectations

Thank You!!!
By Nonna

Thank You so much. We purchased this as a gift for our grandson. The toy was just what we were looking for and the added service of offering the batteries and gift wrap was fantastic. He received it so quickly and the whole family has been enjoying it. Again, Thank You for a quality product and great customer service.

So disappointed - Gun doesn't work
By disappointed
from Oak Harbor, WA
Brought it to a family gathering for the kids. Got the skeet to pop up OK, but the gun laser didn't work at all even after changing the batteries out. A lot of disappointed kids! :(

Seven year old is a bit young
By the chaser
from Atlanta, GA.
We bought for 7 yr. old grandson and his dad to play with. It was difficult for the child at first, but now he can do it if his dad loads the gun. Seven is younger than was recommended. Great fun for the two of them.

3 Things Every Owner Needs to Know About Senior Pet Health- Provided by VetStreet.com
When it comes to healthy aging in pets, functional age — how young an animal acts, feels and performs — is actually more important than chronological age, or how long your dog or cat has been around.
According to Dr. Heidi Lobprise, DVM, president of the International Veterinarian Senior Care Society, functional health is especially relevant when you're discussing the process of aging in animals, since age-related health is relative to a pet's size, breed and weight.
We asked Dr. Lobprise to discuss the three key things that owners may not realize about staying on top of their senior pet's health.
Did You Know . . . Most Owners Don't Follow Senior Guidelines Set by Their Vets
Fact: According to the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), only about 14 percent of senior animals undergo regular health screenings as recommended by their veterinarians.
Why, you ask?
A review of senior care by the AAHA attributed such low compliance to a lack of clear communication from veterinary teams, which is why it's important for owners to ask questions, especially when it comes to inquiring about special screenings that individual senior pets may need.
Did You Know . . . Lethargy Isn't an Unavoidable Aspect of Aging
"He's old, poor guy!" It's a common refrain that Dr. Lobprise hears when owners refer to their lethargic senior cats or dogs, but lethargy can often be a sign of a treatable condition.
"We know from human health that poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle can accelerate aging — an unhealthy diet and lifestyle can speed aging in animals too," says Dr. Lobprise. "It's great to see a dog [suddenly] energized after he's been treated for diabetes or a mouth infection. And owners are often pleasantly surprised to see that once lethargic pet run around like a puppy again."
Since owners often don't notice a gradual decline in their pet's health, notes Dr. Lobprise, this is why regular checkups are so crucial for senior pets. Otherwise, it can be hard to get an accurate picture of your pet's current state of health, without being able to compare it to prior health.
Did You Know . . . Preventive Care at Midlife Can Extend Your Pet's Life
The idea behind preventive care is to get a veterinarian involved before the onset of serious disease. Wellness programs that focus on things like heartworm prevention and keeping mouths healthy can make a big difference when it comes to quality of life in senior pets.
And it's vital to start that care early in life, well before a pet hits his senior years.
The American Animal Hospital Association Guidelines recommends a senior wellness screening for all pets during middle age, and retesting is recommended at least once a year. Routine veterinary visits are recommended for senior pets — those in the last 25 percent of their predicted life span — every six months.
In the long run, regular vet visits and preventive care can help your senior pet live a longer, not to mention healthier, life.

Mangini reaching out to disgruntled Browns DT Rogers
By Adam Schefter | NFL.com
As much as Eric Mangini has tried to change the culture in Cleveland, one of his biggest challenges now is changing the mind of Browns defensive tackle Shaun Rogers.
Rogers has grown so disenchanted with the situation in Cleveland that he has asked the Browns not to pick up the $6 million option-bonus payment due to him next month, a source close to the defensive tackle said. Rogers would rather be released after one season with the Browns, despite still being owed another $15 million in guaranteed money.
The Browns said Rogers hasn't asked them to be released.
Cutting Rogers would be difficult to do financially. If the Browns release Rogers, they would have to count more than $9.7 million against their salary cap.
Cleveland has no intention of getting rid of Rogers. It wants him back as the productive team member he was last season, when he was selected to the Pro Bowl. Browns coach Eric Mangini, according to those within the Cleveland organization, is still optimistic that he can change Rogers' mind once the two men speak. Mangini is said to have recently reached out to Rogers. Those who know Rogers say his mind will not be changed.
But Mangini has had success in these types of settings. When he arrived in New York as the Jets' coach in 2006, wide receiver Laveranues Coles was, at best, a skeptic, but Mangini eventually won him over.
Mangini has said publicly that when change occurs, as it did in Cleveland, there is uncertainty and that can create misunderstandings like the one that has happened now.
Some of Rogers' feelings stem back to two offseason incidents in which he believes Mangini disrespected him. The first time, Mangini walked into the Browns' training room and failed to say hello to Rogers. The next time, at a public charity function in which both men were in the green room, neither said hello to the other, and Mangini later said he didn't know Rogers was there.
"Anytime someone new comes in, there's a process of getting to know that person," Mangini said Feb. 4. "I feel really comfortable with who I am and the things I do. I know that everything is done for a very specific reason and that is to give us the best chance to win. I feel really good about the relationships that I had in New York with the players there. I think that the things that they have said are things I feel really good about. I anticipate having those same types of relationships here."
The Browns believe that, once Rogers hears out Mangini, the same will occur. The situation will be soothed over, hard feelings will dissipate and Cleveland will have a happy defensive tackle.
"I didn't realize Shaun was there at the time," Mangini said earlier this offseason of the green-room incident. "I know it's probably hard to believe considering how big he is and how big I am. I feel really good about watching him on tape. I always appreciate 360-pound nose guards. He's powerful, disruptive, has a high motor, and I'm looking forward to that."
Some believe there are other reasons driving Rogers' desire to leave the Browns. But before the situation is resolved, Mangini will have his say with the player whose mind he now must change.

Dog barking can be an annoying habit, especially if your canine has a loud voice. Though it's a common trait among canines, there are ways to curb excessive barking. However, it may take some time. Here are some tips on how to help your dog learn to keep a lid on it.
Pinpoint the cause
Dogs may bark for a variety of reasons, so to treat this issue, you'll need to figure out what is setting your pet off. Some canines will bark at other animals, such as cats, squirrels or fellow canines, when out on walks, which is often a sign of dog aggression. Others may vocalize their anxiety when they hear someone at the door. Canines sometimes bark because they want something from their owner, and or they might be doing it purely out of excitement and happiness. Watch your pet carefully to see which of these may be causing the habit.
Curbing aggression in dogs
If you think that your dog is barking because she's aggressive toward other animals, then you will need to engage in training. Owners of young dogs are in luck - proper puppy training is the easiest way to reduce aggression in dogs. If your dog is older and still barks frequently, you can train her to follow your commands by starting with simple ones, like sit and stay. From there, you can move on to teaching her to cease barking with a firm command like "settle" or "quiet." Do not punish your dog for this behavior, as it will only increase her anxiety, which could be the cause of the problem, according to VCA Animal Hospitals.
Treating separation anxiety
If you hear your dog barking when you leave the house, or your neighbors have told you that your dog is often vocal when you're not around, then your pet may be suffering from separation anxiety in dogs. This can be difficult to get over, but there are methods that can help. Crate training your dog may get her used to being in a confined space when you're not around, which could in turn allow her relax. Do your best to help reduce your dog's anxiety by ignoring her when you get home until she has settled down, so she learns that you will come and go with no negative or positive consequences.
Other treatments
According to VCA, there are some treatments in addition to training that can help your pet. An anti-bark collar or a bark-activated alarm can sometimes reduce this issue, or you can simply put a handful of pennies in a tin can and shake them at your dog when she barks, which will startle her and make her forget about barking. Be sure to use positive reinforcement when your dog quiets down as she is supposed to by giving her a treat or a favorite toy to chew on. If the dog refrains from barking altogether in a situation that would normally cause her to do so, give her multiple treats.
