New Indoor Paintball Facility is Largest on East Coast

The facility just opened on Chimney Rock Road in Bridgewater.

It is the largest indoor paintball arena both in New Jersey and the whole east coast—and it has come to Bridgewater. Hardcore Paintball Arena opened its doors officially on Chimney Rock Road Friday, with Staten Island residents Harvey Schneider and Angelo DiMaggio at the helm. “We think this is a great town, and we are trying to draw kids and adults of all ages,” Schneider said. “We tell people to try it and see what it’s about.” Schneider said he actually got into this business because of his son, Vincent, who liked playing paintball. “We played at one indoor arena, but mostly outdoor ones,” he said. “I talked with my business partner, and we decided we needed to change that.” And the business stayed in the family because Schneider’s …

5 Cars That Aren't Made Here

We are looking at cars made outside the United States.

If you’re looking for a great new ride to get your day started off just right, we’ve got some vehicles being sold right around the corner. We are very patriotic, we admit it. But sometimes it is nice to get something out of this country, a little foreign-born—some believe they are of superior quality and value. A lot of ostensibly foreign vehicles are made in the U.S.A—and a lot of so-called "American" cars are constructed abroad. So this week, we are featuring a list of five cars that were developed across the pond, outside of the country we call home. 1. 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG — Used — $189,999 From Cars.com: Bred from a German company, this used vehicle, with 55 miles on it so far, has speed-sensitive power steering, aluminum space …
