At the most recent Toy Fair in New York City, toy manufacturers got the chance to display and show off their newest goodies to retailers. Below are some of the toys that were debuted.

- Nerf Showtime Hoops: This Hasbro creation features an electronic basketball hoop system with a ball that bounces off of the backboard, but is just soft enough to prevent breaking a window. This toy was developed with And1, a popular basketball brand. The hoop goes up to 6 feet and 7 inches, and features the interactive voice of And1's emcee "Duke Tango." The hoop also comes with built-in speakers, jacks for portable music players, cup holders, drink dispenser, scoreboard, and a spotlight that shows the child where to stand. [$250]

- My Furreal Friends Pony: Hasbro also created an animated pony with sensors that will respond to touch, sound, and light. Children can climb on the pony's back to go for a ride, while the toy makes galloping sounds. If its mane is brushed, the pony will neigh. If the pony's name is called out, the toy will turn its head towards the sound of the voice. [$300]

- Play-Doh: In light of Play-Doh's 50th birthday, Hasbro has introduced a birthday cake-shaped pack of 50 Play-Doh colors, featuring six new colors. [$13]

- Moon Sand: Spin Master introduces a new rival to Play-Doh with its Moon Sand, a sand-like substance that can be molded into shapes just like regular dough. But the key difference here is that Moon Sand will never dry when it is left out and can be molded again after it is left alone for a period of time. [$5-20]

- Digital Spy Camera: Wild Planet has come out with a pair of shades for kids who aspire to become spies. These sunglasses can take up to 20 photos with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels with its retractable camera. [$35]

- Air Hogs Hydro Freak: This is a remote-controlled vehicle that can drive on the ground, coast above water, or fly into the air, created by Spin Master. [$100]

Not only do scented candles lend flattering, soft light and a special atmosphere to a room, they also fill the space with a wonderful fragrance of your choice. Even unscented candles burn away unpleasant smells, in or out of doors and they are as effective as any atomizer. (Any candle will burn away the smell of cigarette smoke - and more effectively so if a little vanilla perfume is added to it.)

The Top 5 Uses for Binoculars
by: Bill MacArthur

What is the first thing people think of when discussing binoculars? Marine, hunting, birding and other nature related activities are some of the more popular uses. Although binoculars greatly serve their purpose during these activities, they can be used for more than most people think.

Many people don't realize the advantages of owning a pair of quality binoculars. Here are a few popular pastimes that employ the use of binoculars:

Traveling - Binoculars are a great tool for site seeing. Travelers that visit spectacularly scenic places, such as Europe, Japan, New Zealand, or even British Columbia can greatly enhance their experience with a handy set of binoculars. The ability to optimize your view and see miraculous detail will make your trip extraordinarily unforgettable.

Live theater and music concerts - Enjoy sitting in the back row? A pair of binoculars will make you feel like you are on center stage. Have the best view in the room and see the whole show up-close and personal. Binoculars are an absolute must for outdoor concerts and music festivals.

Camping - Bring binoculars and enjoy the wildlife view with your family. It will give you the ability to see things you never thought you would see, like a bird's nest way up in a tree or the rolling clouds from a storm blowing in. You can also use binoculars while out hiking, to help you navigate a more direct route to your destination.

Stargazing - Binoculars can be your first tool in the discovery of astronomy. Regardless of your experience stargazing, the study and practice of astronomy is both educational and fascinating. Take your significant other to a designated spot and learn about the stars and moon together.

Spectator Sports - When you want to have a close-up look at your favorite sporting event, don't forget to bring your binoculars. Get an expert view of all the plays. Indulge your childhood dream of becoming an umpire, and get in on the game. Your binoculars will give you a view of the action that is unparalleled, especially if you are up in the nosebleed seats.
