| Golf Gift Do's and Don'ts
Save the receipt, however, and don't take the shrink wrap off the clubhead. At some shops, doing so will instantly reduce the club's return value by 30%, even if it never strikes a ball. (Feel free to buy clubs for kids or beginners, though, since they haven't yet had time to build the full-scale equipment neuroses that avid golfers develop.) Another generally safe golf-gift category is books, if only because they aren't wildly expensive and the recipient can easily store (or hide) a golf book on a bookshelf -- read or unread, you'll probably never know. Golf books come in two categories: humongous and those actually meant to be read. The former, usually filled with lush photographs of exotic courses taken either 30 minutes before sunset or 30 minutes after sunrise, are essentially golf pornography.
HP Photosmart C7180 multifunction printer
The HP Photosmart C7180 is a six-ink, all-in-one photo inkjet printer with built-in scanner, copier, and fax machine. With just about every imaginable connection option and feature, the C7180 isn't designed for bargain hunters, but it is a good choice for users who want a plethora of features in one box. Setup The C7180's streamlined design makes this unit very user-friendly right out of the box. Memory card readers supporting most types of digital camera cards are conveniently located on the unit's right-hand corner near the paper tray. Copying, scanning, faxing, and photo-printing functions are within arm's reach on the C7180's sleekly designed control panel, and menus are easy to navigate and read thanks to the large 3.6-inch LCD. When setting up the printer, one of the first decisions you'll face is choosing from the myriad connection options.
Holiday Hotlist: NBC Explores Gift Ideas
First up: the girls.
Symonne gave the Pixel Chix a test run.
For a week, she dressed, fed and played with her virtual friend.
Take good care of the Chix and things do well.
"You get more clothes, you get to go more places," Symonne explained.
But if you ignore her, watch out.
"If you don't pay attention to her, she'll give you attitude," Symonne said. "She'll say, 'Hey! I thought you were my friend,' and disappear."
If you're shopping for a younger crowd, you might want to pick up a Tadpole.

Flushed with shame at Britain
We now live in a violent, disrespectful society where social standards have ceased to exist. Who hasnt seen a bunch of drunks stagger from their local pub and start fighting? Who hasnt had some idiot screaming abuse at them for driving with appropriate care (ie obeying the speed limit) and who hasnt been on the wrong end of some little yob hurling profanities. Yes of course England still has so much to offer but why do we now choose to accept all the wrong instead of actually doing something about it? .
Adobe fixes undisclosed vulnerabilities in Reader
Secunia is performing a binary analysis of the old and new versions of Reader to figure out the vulnerabilities. However, that analysis takes one to three days, Kristensen said. Kristensen said no proof-of-concept code has been seen yet and no attacks have been reported. But people should be especially cautious of PDFs (Portable Document Format), the common file type that Reader opens. "PDFs are generally highly trusted," Kristensen said. "It's a common format for exchanging information." Secunia estimates that more than 60 percent of home PC users have the Reader program, based on data from one of its software products that checks to see if programs have up-to-date patches. Corporate use of Reader is less, around 30 percent, since many companies use other business applications that can open PDFs, Kristensen said.
