Glenn Eller, a Katy Texas resident competing in the Olympic games in Beijing China set a new world record in trap shooting during qualifying on Tuesday.

The record was formerly held by Ahmed Almaktoum of the United Arab Emirates and was set Aug. 17, 2004 at the Athens Olympics.

Eller hit 145 targets out of 150. The previous record was 144.

Glenn is with The U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit out of Fort Benning currently and he went on to win the GOLD medal, the USA's first in the event in the last 24 years!

Way to go Glenn, from Katy Texas!

Tokyo Steak and Sushi in Villagio!

Fantastic!

The atmosphere was great and the food was even better! I've never been to a place that had happy hour all day long with a free glass of wine with your dinner but it was a nice touch!

The HIBATCHI dinners were fantastic...I had the steak and my wife had the chicken but it all looked GREAT! Might I suggest the noodles instead of the rice though as the noodles were really good (especially withe Teriaki sauce).

The meals were about $15 a piece and the service was great! The do have a flat screen tv on the wall that was a little odd to be watching sports in a place like that but overall great place! Interesting decor as well (that looks like bamboo flooring used to panel the lower wall!).

My grandmother is coming to visit this month and we can't wait to treat her to this neat place!

Tokyo Steak And Sushi is located in Villagio at the corner of Peek road and Westheimer Parkway.

So my family and I went to Alvin Texas today (about 40 minutes south of Hobby Airport) to the Bayou Wildlife Park to go on Safari the cheap way.

I'll bet a lot of people don't even know it's there but they have quite an amazing place there. Lots of animals from all over the world...only a few that would be "dangerous". MOst that just come up and eat out of your hand (if you're brave) or out of your bucket if you are not!

But this fellow===================>

just had to be about the strangest of the bunch. Yep, he has FOUR horns growing out of his head.

I can't remember where they said he was from but the people there once believed that these animals possessed magical qualities.

Personally, I just thought he was interesting looking!

If you go, you will see all kinds of deer (many breeds), camels, water buffalo, a ZONKEY (yes, it really is a cross between a donkey and a zebra!), an albino buffalo, a rhino and a couple of GREAT long horn cattle!

You ride a little tram pulled by a truck and the animals come right up to you!

Watch out for the Ostriches...they are AGGRESSIVE!

They come over and start LOOKING for your bucket of food and they have taken many a bucket away from passerby it looks like. This one was going after our bucket while my daughter looked on in amazement. My other daughter and wife were too scared to even try to feed this bugger!

Great time at the park and in my opinion, it rivals the San Antonio Natural Bridge wildlife preserve (although the San Antonio preserve does have nicer facilities, the animals were very similar that you get to see).

Cost was $14/adult, $7/child and and each child under three is free if they have a paying adult for each child under 3. The buckets of food were $2.50.

Great fun in the HOUSTON area and I'll bet overlooked by many!
